Chapter 14 I didn't know I was so awesome 13
"No, I'm going with you no matter what."
"Oh, this is too dangerous. There are so many complicated forces involved. If you are not careful, you will die here. I think I should go alone."
"I have to go with you today."
Those people were polite at first, but when they talked about the emotional parts, they couldn't help getting excited, and Liu Hu could hear it clearly.
For a rich kid of this age, all he wants is to fight bandits, establish some merits and gain respect from others. In Liu Hu's opinion, this is really childish.
In the past, Liu Hu would have brought a pot of wine to them, put one foot on the chair, and boasted to them: "When I was your age, I was penniless. Now, I am heavily in debt. I owe tens of thousands of taels of silver to the national treasury alone."
After all, Liu Hu had had to take care of their food, drink, defecation and urination. It was only natural for him to use the money from the national treasury to support the troops. After all, the money in the national treasury was also handed over by him.
"Uncle, I, I want to rest here today and continue my journey tomorrow, is that ok?"
After all, resting in a carriage is not as good as resting in bed. After eating and drinking, Zhiruo touched her round belly and pulled Liu Hu's hand and acted coquettishly.
Liu Hu didn't want to go to Houcheng any sooner, so he just went with the flow and said, "The child is too young, and he is exhausted from the journey. Why don't we just rest here today?"
"Okay." Lan Xin could naturally see the fatigue in her daughter's eyes. In the past, because she had no money, she had to sleep in the open with her daughter. Now that Liu Hu was here, she naturally wanted her daughter to rest more.
After getting Lan Xin's consent, Liu Hu shouted to the shopkeeper upstairs, "Find two good guest rooms."
This time, the shopkeeper did not dare to ask the waiter to receive them. He personally ran downstairs to take Lan Xin and her daughter upstairs and directly arranged them in Room No. 1.
After the two of them went upstairs, Ah Si dared to show his head. He took advantage of Lan Xin and the others not paying attention and jumped over the railing. Due to his burly figure, he caused dust to fly all around him after landing.
Liu Hu was already used to it. He pinched his nose and fanned away the dust in front of his eyes, feeling a little sorry for the food on the table.
"Wow, this person is so tall."
"It's almost as big as a blind bear. Wow, that palm is almost as big as a palm leaf fan."
"I heard that the current Grand Master has a talking blind bear, and that blind bear is very powerful with a pair of hammers."
"What's that? I also heard that the Grand Master blew a whistle during the Qian-Wei War, and thousands of rats came to help fight. He was simply a demon."
"Once we defeat the bandits this time, we can join the First Corps with our military merits."
I am the breeze, with no intention of stirring up dust. Liu Hu wanted to go out to see when Luo Fanchen would come back, but these people would not let Liu Hu leave. He was not worried about Luo Fanchen's safety, but this boy had all the candied haws in his hands, and Zhiruo loved them, it would be a pity if they were damaged.
"Young master, I wonder where you are doing?" After seeing A Si, the leading young master Zhang came over to greet him, thinking in his mind how to win over A Si and the others.
Liu Hu naturally knew what these guys wanted to do. They just wanted him to accompany them to kill those bandits.
"I am just an unknown person and not worthy of your attention." Liu Hu said modestly.
Young Master Zhang and his companions were not willing to believe it. How could they be incompetent if they could hire the entire Ting Lan Xuan? Knowing that Liu Hu was being modest, Young Master Zhang looked around and whispered, "We are going to assassinate the bandit leader. It is said that the First Corps is recruiting new soldiers recently. As long as we bring the heads of the bandits, General Zheng Peng will definitely accept us. Maybe we can see the Grand Tutor then."
Seeing his mysterious look, Ah Si couldn't help but burst out laughing. Zheng Peng was actually being sought after by these young men.
Liu Hu didn't laugh, but said seriously: "Doesn't the First Corps already have 300,000 soldiers? Why do they need to recruit new soldiers?"
Hearing Liu Hu's question, Young Master Zhang was a little arrogant, and he straightened his back and said, "According to my inference, General Zheng Peng's recruitment this time must be for the purpose of recovering the land of Yiqing."
"Oh?" Recover the land of Yiqing? Liu Hu was also a little puzzled. Even he, Zheng Peng's immediate superior, didn't know why the young man in front of him, Jin Hui, was so sure.
Young Master Zhang thought Liu Hu didn't believe him, so he continued, "Don't think it's peaceful now, but the land of Yiqing has been our Daqian territory since the founding of Daqian. Now it's occupied by Beidi. Besides, the Grand Tutor will never give up. Looking back at the Grand Tutor's years of military service, he only suffered a defeat at Beidi once. The Grand Tutor will definitely seek revenge."
This time Liu Hu couldn't help himself and smiled, saying, "You know the Grand Master quite well."
"Of course. Ever since I learned to read, I have regarded the Grand Master as my lifelong pursuit. I know all of the Grand Master's achievements. In the 22nd year of Jianyuan, the Grand Master led an army to Lingnan, killed Fang Li, seized the commander's flag, drove out the Dongyi , attacked the Xirong, resisted the Nanman, and attacked the Beidi. He had many brave generals under his command."
"Jia Hong is as good as Zhuge Liang in literature, and Zheng Peng is in charge of thousands of troops in martial arts. There are countless masters from the inner and outer sects, and he even led his men to attack the palace of the King of Dongyi. At that moment, the Grand Master held a seven-foot sword and placed it across the neck of the King of Dongyi, stepped on the throne and asked: Do you want to surrender or not?"
Liu Hu didn't even know that he was so powerful. He did lead his men to attack the Dongyi palace at the beginning. However, a large empire could not be conquered by a single army. He just took advantage of the internal weakness to launch a sneak attack .
At that time, he didn't even enter the inner palace of Dongyi. He just killed a few guards outside, set a fire and ran away.
"Could your ancestors be storytellers?" Liu Hu teased as he listened to the boy's eloquence.
Young Master Zhang could hear Liu Hu's teasing and said angrily, "You can insult me, but you can't insult the Grand Tutor. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
He didn't expect that this gentle and refined young man in front of him would be angry for him. For a moment, Liu Hu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Little kid, you are still young, don't do useless things. I advise you that the bandits are not someone you can fight against. Go home and study hard, and the right thing to do is to pass the imperial examination." At this moment, Liu Hu was like an old parent, instructing the students in front of him.
Young Master Zhang was not willing to admit defeat, and besides, people around him often said so, so he said unconvincedly: "When the Grand Master was this old, he already commanded tens of thousands of people."
"Haha, I can tell you clearly that when the Grand Tutor was your age, he was still working 996. Oh, by the way, you don't know what 996 is." Liu Hu thought for a moment and continued.
"When the Grand Master was your age, he was still mining stones in Nanshan. Also, the Grand Master has suffered many defeats in his life, and his brothers have been killed and wounded in countless numbers. It was not just the defeat in Yiqing."
