Datang: Starting from a fortune-telling stall, Wu Zetian was suddenly abducted

Chapter 277 Never agree
3 people?
Zhang Liang immediately became interested when he heard this. Before the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty mobilized millions of troops to fight against Gaoguli.

But now Xue Rengui opened his mouth and asked for [-] troops. Why didn't he feel surprised?

Then asked:

"You only have [-] soldiers, and the distance is so far. How are you going to attack?"

Xue Rengui replied with a smile:

"I will use my troops to fight and plan for them slowly."

Zhang Liang said "Huh":

"Mr. Lang, please be more careful."

Xue Rengui spoke again:

"I arranged my troops according to Zhuge Wuhou's eight formations, and gradually eroded Gaoguli."

"If the land is wide, use deer antlers to camp on the cart; if the road is narrow, use wooden huts on the cart; and fight ahead."

"Gradually compress the enemy's living space and consume the enemy's supplies. We will win."

Zhang Liang nodded frequently. He didn't know much about military affairs. These questions were also jointly developed by everyone from the Ministry of War.

But after all, he came here from the time when the generals were shining brightly. After seeing more, he naturally understood a lot.

He also recognized Xue Rengui's strategic thinking very much. After nodding repeatedly, he asked a second question.

Just like this, half an hour has passed.

When the soldier on duty saw this, he also cautiously reminded:

"Zhang Shangshu, everyone's assessment time is a quarter of an hour, and the time has already passed."

Zhang Liang heard this and stopped this time and did not continue to ask.

Instead, he smiled and encouraged:
"Mr. Lang, in my opinion, that Qixin has no power to be a general, but you can be a handsome man."

This is an extremely high evaluation. Xue Rengui also said humbly:
"Thank you Zhang Shangshu for the compliment. I really dare not accept such a big compliment."

The two sides chatted a few more gossips, and Xue Rengui resigned.

After everyone had finished their assessment, Zhang Liang returned to the main stand and encouraged the 45 people below.

He also promised to summarize their performance as soon as possible and report it to His Majesty, so that they can hopefully serve the country.

All the candidates were relieved and looked happy.

Amid the thunderous applause from the audience, the 'martial arts' officially ended.

Xue Rengui first exchanged congratulations with all the candidates, and then left each other's addresses with the candidates who had similar temperaments and tastes.

Then he returned to a corner and waited for the crowd to disperse before leaving.

At this moment, Qixin Heli came over and said to him with a smile:

"Xue Langjun, will you rest after getting drunk today?"

Xue Rengui naturally agreed with a smile.

Qixin Heli met Li Mingzhi again, and the three of them chatted while waiting for the people to disperse.

After half an hour, after everyone had almost left, the three of them strolled out of the military academy grounds.

Kankan walked out of the door and saw a handsome young man wearing a round-necked narrow-sleeved robe standing at the door.

When he saw Xue Rengui and the others, his eyes lit up, and he stepped forward with a smile and cupped his hands:
"Gongsun Zhi has met three gentlemen."

Xue and Qi didn't know where he was from, but Li Mingzhi recognized him.

He smiled back and said:
"Mingzhi has met Gongsun Langjun."

After that, I introduced it to everyone. It turned out that Gongsun Zhi was one of Zhang Liang's five hundred fake men. Because he was smart and capable, he was highly valued by Zhang Liang.

This time he also followed Zhang Liang's arrangement and came to win over Xue Rengui.

After everyone finished greetings, Gongsun Zhi also smiled and said:

"Congratulations to Mr. Xue, and congratulations to Mr. Qixin."

"Today's game is over, why don't you let me be the host and let everyone get drunk before resting?"

Li Mingzhi knew that he was entrusted by Zhang Liang to win over the two of them.Although he was not familiar with Gongsun Zhi, he was unwilling to offend him over such a trivial matter, so he agreed with a smile.

Xue Rengui and Qixin Heli naturally knew what was going on. They had a good impression of Zhang Liang today.

In addition, they had been waiting here for so long, so they all nodded in agreement.

After a few people agreed, Xue Rengui said to them apologetically:
"You gentlemen, wait for me for a moment, I will go back as soon as I go."

After saying that, without waiting for anyone to reply, he hurriedly walked towards Liu Yinhuan, who had been waiting for him.

Liu Yinhuan watched him talking to people, knowing that something was wrong, so he waited patiently.

Seeing him coming over in a hurry, I knew that he still missed me, and I was very happy.

Xue Rengui smiled and told her about the language test (Tao Lue) and said:

"Madam, when your ranking in the martial arts examination comes down in a few days, I will go to your house to propose marriage immediately."

Liu Yinhuan's heart was filled with sweetness again. Seeing Xue Rengui's excitement, she rolled her eyes at him and said angrily:

"Look how stupid you are."

Then he said seriously:

"Lang Jun, you are not in Chang'an, so there are some things I don't know about."

"I have been in the public eye a lot with Ye Ye doing business, and I have heard some people talk about Zhang Liang. His reputation in court was not good, and he paid too many fake bills and caused trouble everywhere."

"If he wants to accept you as his pretender, you must not agree."

After hearing this, Xue Rengui also patted his chest repeatedly and said:

"Don't worry, madam. It's not like you don't know my temper, Xue Rengui. You will definitely not follow others' influence."

"Even if I offend Zhang Shangshu, I will not be his pretender."

Liu Yinhuan was still a little worried, and after giving him a few more instructions, he said goodbye and left.

Xue Rengui waited until the carriage following her disappeared, then he and Gongsun Zhi and others rode off to Chang'an.

On the way, he quietly told Li Mingzhi what Liu Yinhuan had said. Li Mingzhi glanced at Gongsun Zhi who was galloping ahead, and whispered:
"Everything Mrs. Liu said is true. If Zhang Liang accepts you as his pretender, you must not agree."

"But don't offend him easily. After all, your future is in your hands now. Just think of yourself as a snake."

"Although Gongsun Zhi has no official position, because of Zhang Liang's relationship, he is at home in Chang'an City. We can just socialize for today."

Xue Rengui nodded first, and then told Qi Xin He Li.

While they were chatting and laughing, they had already arrived at Pingkangfang, Chang'an, the most famous red light district in Chang'an City.

Pingkangfang, also called "Beili", is located to the north of Chang'an City and faces the Imperial City across a crossroads.

In such a location, private individuals are absolutely not allowed to build high-rise buildings, and this is also to ensure the safety of the imperial city.

The girls in Pingkangfang are also divided into three, six or nine grades.

The big-name prostitutes all live in Zhongqu and Nanqu, while those in Beiqu live in low-to-medium-class areas.

After entering the workshop, Gongsun Zhi led a few people directly to Nanqu.

Quli's architectural style is mostly black-gray roofs, red pillars, and white or khaki walls.

No one has a plaque like "Yihong Courtyard" hanging on the door of their courtyard.

They all belong to so-and-so's family, and have their own private courtyard.

Gongsun Zhi saw that he was a regular customer here and took the three of them directly to a large courtyard house in the middle.

As soon as they entered the house, a charming madam came out, greeted Gongsun Zhi with a smile, and led everyone through the courtyard.

Along the way, the halls are spacious and quiet, with flowers planted in the courtyard and strange stone basins.

After entering the main hall of a house, I saw bead curtains hung diagonally in the hall, and the couches had gorgeous curtains. There were already more than ten ladies with colorful flowers and willows waiting here.

Seasonal fruits have already been placed on the food table.

After everyone made some humility, the guests and hosts took their seats.
