During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

Chapter 191
Unexpectedly, Qian Cheng stabilized the precarious Yingchuan in less than three months, and the people who originally opposed him were speechless.

Qian Cheng originally worked as a master for the magistrate of Huachang County. He was also from Yuzhou, and officials in the governor's office were also familiar with him.

It is better to use him than someone sent by the imperial court. As for the fact that he has no fame, not many people really care.

Because Qian Cheng has proven himself that he does have this ability.

"Sir, Governor Huo has a reply." The soldier handed a short letter to Lieutenant General Zuo.

Lieutenant General Zuo happily took it and scanned it with a single glance. His pupils suddenly trembled and he became ecstatic, "The person who died turned out to be Wang Yuan's son Wang He?"

He actually killed the son of the Hun King. Why is he so powerful?

I thought that this trip would be a hard job, but how could I have imagined that this incredible wealth would fall on me?

Lieutenant Zuo was happy for a while, then became worried again.

"The one who died turned out to be the son of the King of the Huns. The Huns will not take this opportunity to attack the Jin Dynasty. Then wouldn't I become a sinner?"

The left deputy general was unhappy and was spinning around like a headless fly.

Qian Cheng was quite disgusted when he saw this, but he still comforted him, "General, why are you so worried? You didn't know that the other person was Wang Yuan's son before you killed him. As the saying goes, those who don't know are not blamed, and the court will not blame you."

“But what if the Huns are to blame?”

Qian Cheng sneered, "The Huns have always believed in respecting the strong. Wang He was known as a prairie warrior, but now he died in the hands of one of your lieutenants. Do you think the Huns are willing to admit it?"

"..."

"Besides, Wang He didn't stay in the grassland honestly, but came here to assassinate the princess. Based on this alone, the Huns have no reason to send troops."

Unless they are really shameless.

I heard that the King of the Huns admired the culture of the Jin Dynasty and must have been a man of honor. Based on this alone, he would not blame Lieutenant General Zuo. The rest was for the court to worry about.

Lieutenant General Zuo thought for a while and felt that what he said made sense, and he became happy again, "That's right. In that case, I have made a great contribution?"

Qian Cheng nodded perfunctorily. Although meritorious services are meritorious service, they may not be rewarded.

Wang He is dead, and the court does not want to fight. What matters now is the attitude of the Huns.

Speaking of the imperial court, Qian Cheng was slightly disappointed.

The Huns were watching with eager eyes, but the civil officials in the court suppressed the generals from fighting. The generals focused on guarding their own territory.

There was only one General Nangong stationed at the border, but he had the blood of a foreigner. None of the civil and military ministers in the court believed him.

If this continues, Dajin may be doomed.

After making sure that the Huns would not settle accounts with him, Lieutenant Zuo had other plans. After saying goodbye to Qian Cheng, he returned to the resting place and sent someone to find Luo Tingye.

The person who came was Jiang Qian.

Lieutenant Zuo had a very good impression of Jiang Qian and wanted to marry his niece to him, but he only wanted to take the scientific examination and missed it.

"Lieutenant General Zuo." Jiang Qian bowed and saluted.

Lieutenant General Zuo said with a smile: "Jiang Juren is frightened. Please sit down quickly."

Jiang Qian sat down with his legs on his hands. The left deputy general's eyes flashed and he asked with concern: "What's wrong with Jiang Juren's legs?"

"I had a broken bone before. Although it was cured, because it was delayed for too long, it was inevitably painful when it was cloudy and rainy. Today when the thieves came, I accidentally fell again. My leg hurt a little, but it didn't hurt. It's serious." "I see, you have to take good care of her from now on. By the way, why aren't the guards following you here?"

Jiang Qian thought to himself that of course he would not come back.

There was a smile on Jiang Qian's lips, "He was also injured today and has gone to rest."

Lieutenant General Zuo heard the shirk in his words and was a little unhappy, "Jiang Juren, do you think I will harm him?"

No matter what he was thinking, Jiang Qian always had a gentle smile on his face.

"To be honest, my guard is a gangster. By chance, I rescued him and he was willing to stay with me. He didn't want to cause trouble and stayed with me wholeheartedly. He also asked the general to remove him when reporting name."

Lieutenant Zuo's heart moved shamefully, and there was some embarrassment on his face, "Isn't this bad? Although he is a guard, after all, he killed Wang He, which can be regarded as a great achievement."

Jiang Qian showed a bit of surprise, "It turned out to be Wang He. This credit cannot be claimed. Who is Wang He? He is the son of the King of the Huns. He suddenly appeared in Qingzhou. Maybe he came to gather information. How can he, a bodyguard, take such great credit? If someone finds out, it might cause trouble."

Lieutenant General Zuo nodded in agreement, "That's true."

"Since the general also feels that his low status cannot receive such a credit, it is better to give this credit to the general. If there is no general to lead the overall situation from the front, I am afraid that even if I have some strength, I will not be able to hurt Wang He."

Lieutenant General Zuo was very satisfied with Jiang Qian's knowledge, so he declined and agreed.

"You are a good guard right now. If you can join the army, you will definitely be able to make a difference. If Jiang Juren agrees, he can be a centurion under my command."

Jiang Qian's face immediately darkened.

Lieutenant General Zuo took a look and realized that he had said something wrong and quickly changed his words, "I mean, how can you take away someone's favor?"

Jiang Qian looked very ugly, "What the general is saying is that I am a helpless scholar and I have no capable people to help me at home. If I don't even have a bodyguard, I will be bullied to death."

Lieutenant General Zuo thought that he was insinuating himself. Although he felt a little aggrieved, he thought that taking advantage of others was still a profit. Besides, his legs were indeed bad. He wanted to call people to his side, which was a bit of a robbery. the meaning of.

So Jiang Qian was sent away in a good mood.

Lieutenant General Zuo found Qian Cheng again. Although the guard didn't want to take such credit, it would be troublesome if he just reported it and revealed his secret later.

You have to talk to Qian Cheng about this kind of thing.

Unexpectedly, Qian Cheng also agreed very much and was willing to help him polish his pen.

Lieutenant General Zuo thought for a moment: "Does Mr. Qian have a relationship with that guard?"

Qian Cheng's hand shook and he almost made a typo, "What did the general say? How could I be friends with a little guard?"

"What about you?" Vice General Zuo looked at him suspiciously.

"General, I am from Huachang County."

Jiang Qian is also from Huachang County, so the two of them are friends.

Lieutenant General Zuo was immediately relieved, "So that's it. It seems that Mr. Qian and Jiang Juren have a good relationship."

"Where."

Even though Jiang Qian is just a small official now, once His Highness returns, with their life-and-death friendship over the past few years, he will definitely have a higher official position than him.
