That Person In That River and Lake

  Chapter 74 Loyalty is a word for a lifetime

   "A gentleman can deceive others."

Gu Qingci suddenly said a nonsensical sentence, and after finishing speaking, he stopped talking. Everyone looked at him in surprise, not sure what he meant by this, even Ning Qing was confused of.

Ma Zhibai didn't understand either, thinking to no avail, he said, "Master Gu, I... would like to ask you to release Uncle Dong, I know that this request is really difficult, but I still hope that you can release Uncle Dong. "

   After Ma Zhibai finished speaking, he bowed deeply like Gu Qingci.

However, Gu Qing avoided it, and said lightly: "Mr. Ma, I don't know when this county became enmity with you, so that your servants can disregard the family, the country, the world, and the life and death of thousands of people. If you want to put me to death, compare your heart with your heart, if you are in this situation, do you think you will let him go?"

Ma Zhibai's expression froze for a moment, and he said: "Master Gu, Uncle Dong did this for me, Mr. Gu, you are safe now, and Uncle Dong has received the punishment he deserved, I hope you can let go killed him."

"Hehe," Gu Qingci sneered, and said, "Oh, I should have let him go if I wasn't dead. If I were dead, would you let him pay for my life? Why, Mr. Ma, your servant is a human being. Am I, Gu Qingci, not a human anymore?"

"No, no, no," Ma Zhibai hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that, I just think that Uncle Dong has been abolished by you and has become a useless person, and the reason for this is all because of me, Mr. Gu Let Uncle Dong go, and I will give you an explanation."

   "How do you want to explain to me?" Gu Qingci asked.

  Ma Zhibai took a deep breath and said, "I want to meet Uncle Dong first."

   "Yes," Gu Qingci said lightly, "Shilong, send someone to bring the assassin."

  Pang Shilong bowed his hands and left the camp.

After standing for a while, Gu Qingci felt more and more tired, so he found a stool and sat down. After a long while, he slowly recovered. He has no internal energy in his whole body, and his whole head is also a little dizzy. of.

Last night when he used Xiao Li Feidao, he lost consciousness at that moment, as if this body was not his own. Now that he wakes up, he just feels tired, but he is very clear about the current situation of Qiling Station, and he is indispensable, so he can Strong support the body up.

  Gu Qingci took a heavy breath, glanced at Ma Zhibai and Sancai, pointed to a few stools next to him, and said, "Mr. Ma, you are a visitor, please sit down!"

   "Thank you, Mr. Gu."

   Ma Zhibai and Sancai are not warriors, and they are still people who study every day. They are not in good health. After standing for so long, their backs are sore.

   Gu Qingci knew that it would take some time for Pang Shilong to go out to pick up someone, so he asked Ning Qing who was next to him: "Old Ning, is there any movement in Beimo today?"

Ning Qing was sitting next to Gu Qingci, when he heard this question, his eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at Ma Zhibai inexplicably, and said coldly: "Boy Ma, that servant of your family really deserves to be killed. son!"

  Gu Qingci's eyes flashed a trace of doubt, he didn't understand why Ning Qing said this suddenly, but he didn't speak, and listened quietly.

  Ma Zhibai also frowned, and hurriedly said: "Old Ning, Uncle Dong..."

"Hmph," Ning Qing said coldly, "Do you know that because he assassinated Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu was injured and couldn't show up. The Beimo cavalry only attacked on a small scale at the beginning today, and we didn't lose much, but later we found out that Mr. Gu If the adults are not around, they will attack aggressively and unscrupulously."

"I," Ma Zhibai shook his head bitterly, and said, "Old Ning, this is the younger generation's fault. If I had known about Master Gu's situation earlier, I should have brought someone here, although I, Ma Zhibai, would not Martial arts, but there is also a man's blood, even if I die in battle, I have no regrets."

  Ning Qing said calmly: "That servant of yours, a great practitioner, is worth thousands of troops, but in the end, instead of killing the Beimo bandits, instead... it's just eating inside and outside!"

   Ma Zhibai looked ashamed, not knowing what to say.

  Gu Qingci has been watching Ma Zhibai all the time, and found that no matter his demeanor, tone, or actions, all of them reflect a good upbringing, and there is no deliberate camouflage at all. This man...

   "Mr. Ma," Gu Qingci said suddenly, "It's just right, this county also wants to ask, you are doing well, why did you come to Changling County all of a sudden?"

Ma Zhibai slapped his thigh suddenly, and said angrily: "Speaking of this matter, I will go to the county magistrate Zhang Zhihuan to question it when I go back. Credit, why did you send me here suddenly?"

  Gu Qingci's eyes turned cold, and he said slowly: "Mr. Ma, what do you mean by that? Are you sent by the county guard? What are you here for?"

  Ma Zhibai said: "I was originally the county magistrate in Wei County, but some time ago, for some reason, the county guard suddenly issued an order for me to come to Changling County to serve as the county magistrate..."

With that said, Ma Zhibai took out two sealed transfer orders from his pocket and handed them to Gu Qingci, saying, "This is the transfer order. When I first came here, I thought it was because the county officials in Changling County were not well managed, so Sent me here, only to find out later that Zhang Zhihuan is actually planning to ask me to take credit for Mr. Gu, and let me be such a lowly person!"

Gu Qingci looked at the transfer order, and after confirming that it was correct, he raised his head and looked at Ma Zhibai like an idiot. He didn't know if this person was stupid. It was obvious that the county guard Zhang Zhihuan was out to flatter Ma Zhibai The father who was the minister of the Ministry of Rites in the court, but now, Ma Zhibai actually said everything, listening to his tone, and still very angry?

Seeing Gu Qingci staring at him, Ma Zhibai thought that Gu Qingci had misunderstood him, and hurriedly explained: "Master Gu, don't worry, although I, Ma Zhibai, am not good at writing or martial arts, I have read sage books for more than ten years. I will never do such a villainous act!"

The more Ma Zhibai spoke, the more angry he became, blushing, and said: "Humph, I, Ma Zhibai, am upright. I ask myself that I have never offended Zhang Zhihuan before, so why would I be so unjust? I must ask him about this matter. What happened, if he doesn't explain it to me, I'll go to Yushitai to read him a book!"

Gu Qingci suddenly felt a burst of joy inexplicably, and really wanted to laugh out loud. This Zhang Zhihuan was really a steal, and he flattered the horse's hoof. He originally wanted to give a credit to please Ma Zhibai, but he didn't. The thought not only failed to make Ma Zhibai grateful, but also made trouble for him.

  But, in turn, Gu Qingci suddenly had a murderous intent in his heart, and this Zhang Zhihuan actually thought of erasing his credit with just this paper transfer order, and let him use it to curry favor with other people.

Originally, Gu Qingci had already planned to resign. He didn't care whether he deserved credit or not, but there were still so many people waiting under him, and everyone was looking forward to the request for credit to arrive in the capital as soon as possible. It was intercepted!

   At this moment, a voice rang from the tent: "My lord, the assassin is here!"

   Recommended tickets, recommended tickets, I am not afraid of being attacked by recommended tickets, really, if you have recommended tickets in your hands, feel free to hit me, I am not afraid, I am not afraid!
