Chapter 243 Listen to Master Xue
Chapter 243 Listen to Mr. Xue
The military god of Dayu!
In the past, Zhao Duan only knew this nickname, but at this moment, he saw the solemn expressions of all the military officers and soldiers carrying flags around him.
He finally gained a true understanding of the weight of the words "God of War".
He also realized why the empress attached so much importance to this military official of the imperial party.
The next second, in the autumn wind, a group of people came towards them, and the one leading them was that familiar yet unfamiliar face:
Xue Shence, with a pale complexion, a beard and a serious expression, is wearing his iconic lion robe.
As a military official, he was not wearing armor today and did not have any weapons on him.
As he took a step forward, Zhao Duan felt an indescribable pressure.
That was a completely different pressure from that of Prime Minister Li Yanfu.
More directly, it is like a mixture of a powerful warrior's training energy and a general's energy on the battlefield.
It makes people subconsciously feel awe, and the circulation of energy and blood in the body seems to become sluggish.
"Xue Shence..." Zhao Duan repeated the name silently in his heart.
The last time the two met was at a small court meeting in the imperial palace, when they caught a glimpse of each other.
We met again in the blink of an eye, but not on this occasion.
He had no likes or dislikes towards this military god, but he was somewhat uncomfortable with the subtle oppressive power he exuded from his superior.
A strong person can actively restrain his aura, it just depends on whether he wants to or not.
Xue Shence obviously didn't think that was the case...at least that was the case for himself.
Zhao Duan moved his gaze and looked behind the other party, at the important members of the Privy Council, such as Governor Wang and others whose portraits were attached in the information.
However, to his surprise, there was a slightly younger, indifferent-looking figure in a white robe among the crowd.
Tang Ping!
This young master who had been dismissed from office and driven out by him was actually following Xue Shence.
Zhao Duan narrowed his eyes and his expression became a little strange.
"I am here to see the Privy Councilor! I am in charge of the Privy Council!"
At this time, the military officers under the awning spoke one after another.
Xue Shence nodded, but walked over and fixed his gaze on Zhao Duan. His eyes flickered and he took the initiative to speak:
"Mr. Zhao, we meet again."
Zhao Duan had already stood up, and he smiled and clasped his fists when he heard this:
"It's rare that Lord Xue still remembers me, and today he personally leads all the lords here. Our entire Shenji Camp is honored."
next to.
The dark and tall Shi Meng had a complicated expression, thinking that this should be my lyrics...
The other military officers were also a little surprised, but not because the two had met before.
But... this guy surnamed Zhao is really not humble at all!
As a fourth-rank military officer, it would be fine if he wasn't nervous, but he actually asked Envoy Xue to speak first... It was indeed as the rumors said, he was relying on the favor of Your Majesty and had nothing to fear.
Aren't you really afraid of displeasing the Privy Councilor?
Xue Shence's face showed no emotion, as if he didn't care about the "offense" of his subordinate. He just said meaningfully:
"Since Zhao Chenshi took office, his reputation has spread far and wide. I have also heard a little about him. Since he is going to personally preside over the military exercises, I will come and observe a bit."
Famous?
It must be notorious... Zhao Duan complained in his heart with a bright smile on his face.
It seemed that at this moment, he noticed someone and said in surprise:
"Why is the young master here too? Could it be that he left the Shenji Camp and joined the Privy Council as a servant?"
An old Yin-Yang master...
brush--
In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to Tang Ping, with a mentality of watching the fun.
Obviously, everyone had heard about the conflict between the two.
Tang Ping was not wearing an official robe, just a white training robe.
He was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with eyes as sharp as knives on both sides of his straight nose.
The young master has not had a good time these days.
Being dismissed from office and kicked out of the barracks is extremely shameful for the children of a "military family".
Especially after learning about the "false" charge, Tang Ping became more angry.
For him, being dismissed from office was nothing, as everyone has his own consequences.
The most uncomfortable ones were the low-level military officers who were implicated and dismissed together with him. The "young master" was very proud and could not stand this grievance.
The pride in his heart made him disdain to ask his father or other nobles for help.
He dared not vent his anger towards the empress, so he could only step into the door of the Privy Council again and again to seek an explanation.
Today, he unexpectedly learned about the Shenjiying's military training, and he immediately asked to follow Xue Shence.
I couldn't really explain why I wanted to come here.
Just wanted to come over.
Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.
Tang Ping clenched his fists, stared at Zhao Duan, and said coldly:
"You don't have to use such sarcastic words to squeeze me. Today I am here to observe as a son of a military hero. Or, you can try to take away my noble status as well!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the field suddenly became tense.
But the group of old officials in the Privy Council tacitly did not say anything to stop it.
Zhao Duan looked at Xue Shence meaningfully, and thought to himself, who says warriors don't have brains?
Bringing Tang Ping in was nothing more than treating him as a charging pawn crossing the river to seduce him.
From this, it can be seen that these people in the Privy Council have been bearing the pressure and neglecting themselves during this period, which makes them very angry.
At this time, shouts came from outside the camp again:
"The Minister of War has arrived!"
The slightly tense atmosphere was immediately broken.
A group of military officers, including Tang Ping, turned their heads away in surprise.
Xue Shence took a deep look at Zhao Duan, who was smiling... and felt confused and uncertain.
Were people from the Ministry of War also invited?
What exactly does Mr. Zhao want to do?
Such a big scene?
"Haha, Lord Xue is here too. Would you mind if our military department joins in the fun?"
Minister Sun of the Ministry of War was an energetic old man dressed in a scarlet robe, and he came with several officials, laughing.
Then, ignoring everyone else, he took the lead in showing an eager smile to Zhao Duan:
"Envoy Zhao, we have been invited to come here. I wonder if we are too late."
The two words "Shijun" are very subtle.
Intentionally or unintentionally, the camps were divided.
Zhao Duan smiled brightly and said to the old man, with whom he had little contact:
"The fact that the Minister has come here in person is a great honor to our humble home. He has come just in time. We have all the talented people here, and it is time for the drill."
For a moment, Tang Ping's emotions, which were about to explode, were interrupted.
Seeing the people from the Ministry of War arriving, he had no choice but to hold it back.
In the blink of an eye, the awning was crowded with people.
The scene was so grand and terrifying that Shi Meng's eyelids twitched.
As the commander of the Shenji Camp, he felt like he was being left out.
Zhao Duan whispered to Qian Kerou to notify Chen Huoshen and prepare to go out.
The officials in the shed did not sit down because Xue Shence was still standing.
He glanced at the seats and waved his hand.
"We are warriors training. How can we have the generals sitting and the soldiers standing? Come on, withdraw together."
However, no one moved around.
Many military officers of the Shenji Camp did not move.
The soldiers standing guard around did not move.
These people all turned their eyes to Zhao Duan at the same time.
Zhao Duan smiled and said:
"Master Xue is right. Let's all leave."
"Yes!"
The soldiers near the shed then stepped forward and quickly removed the tables and chairs, leaving only a bare shed to block out the sunlight.
The officials present all looked a little strange.
Xue Shence also looked at him deeply.
……
Calvin, it's a little short, I'll make it up tomorrow
