The gods began by supporting Guo Jing to become emperor

Chapter 20 Temujin's Attention
Next to Temujin, Zhebie, who was carrying a bow and arrow, stepped forward and gently patted his shoulder, "Guo Jing, are you confident this year?"

Guo Jing rubbed his head and smiled shyly, "Master, I can only promise to do my best, but I can't guarantee that I will definitely get first place."

Zhebie glared at him, "I'm wondering, who did you learn this character from? You don't have the boldness of us grassland men at all. A man should be more confident. You are my disciple, Zhebie. This year, you will definitely take first place."

Guo Jing's face was tense, and he answered calmly, "Teacher always told me that there are always people who are better than you, and there are always stronger people among the strong. If there are so many heroes on the grassland, how dare I claim to be the best? Wouldn't that be underestimating the heroes of the grassland?"

Before Zhebei could speak, Temujin laughed out loud, "There is always someone stronger than the strong? Well said, well said, Tolui, did you hear what your brother said? Running around the military camp with a knife on your back all day long is not a worry at all."

Tuo Lei, who was standing by, was also affected by the incident and could only smile bitterly and glare at Guo Jing secretly.

"That's what my father taught me."

Temujin seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Guo Jing, in addition to teaching you martial arts, did your masters also teach you these principles?"

Guo Jing did not hesitate and confessed directly, "Khan, I am not talking about my third master and his friends. They only taught me kung fu. It was my other teacher who taught me these principles. My teacher also taught me how to read and write."

Temujin's eyes flashed with surprise, and he said with a purpose, "Your teacher has taught you very well. I would like to meet him. You see, Tolui is the same age as you, and he is always irritable and causes trouble for me. If your teacher can teach him, I don't know how much worry I will save."

"If the Khan wants to see my teacher, Guo Jing can introduce him to him."

Zhebie was afraid that Temujin would get angry, so he laughed and scolded, "You kid, on this grassland, the Khan can't see anyone he wants to see. Why does he need you to introduce him?"

Temujin shook his head and said with a smile, "Zhebie, it's okay. People with abilities are more likely to have tempers. Guo Jing, after this conference, I want to meet your teacher." Temujin saw the changes in Guo Jing very clearly.

The ancients said that a child’s future can be seen at the age of three, and there is some truth to that.

Temujin had met Guo Jing when he was a little over six years old. At that time, Guo Jing looked dull, honest, and stubborn, and was not as smart as his son Tolui.

He originally thought that Guo Jing would remain the same when he grew up, but he did not expect that in just a few years, he had changed so much. Although he looked the same, the feeling he gave him was completely different, as if he had finally become enlightened.

Temujin really wanted to know what kind of teacher was able to produce such a talent as Guo Jing. Yes, in Temujin's eyes, the current Guo Jing was worthy of his liking.

After the conversation, Hua Zheng, Guo Jing and Tuo Lei slipped out of the golden tent. The three of them went to the hillside and lay down, basking in the sun like they did when they were little. Tuo Lei turned his head and glanced at Guo Jing beside him, pretending to be angry, "Guo Jing, good boy, you made me lose face in front of my father. Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?"

"Then I'll shoot some prey later."

Tuo Lei suddenly asked, "Guo Jing, how many masters do you have?"

Guo Jing had no intention of hiding anything and answered honestly, "Nine."

Hua Zheng's eyes widened and her mouth opened slightly, "Nine? That's so many!"

Guo Jing seemed very calm, "Master Zhebie taught me archery and was my eldest master. The third and ninth masters taught me martial arts. In addition, there was another teacher who taught me reading and writing."

Tuolei was confused. Ever since he joined his father's army, he was like a wild horse without a bridle, and now he was stunned when he heard that Guo Jing had nine masters. "Oh my God, Guo Jing, nine people are in charge of you, how can you bear it?" Guo Jing was stunned for a moment and explained, "The masters are all very good and have taught me a lot. Tuolei, I will also go to the battlefield next year. Then, we brothers will fight side by side."

Tuolei patted his chest with a confident look on his face, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect you on the battlefield. By the way, which army do you want to join? Jebe's vanguard is full of elite troops, I'm afraid you can't go."

Guo Jing is now much more mature than Tuolei. "I have already thought about it. Going to the battlefield does not mean charging into the battle. I am good at archery, so I plan to be a eagle shooter."

At this point, Tuolei sighed, with a look of sadness on his young face, "It's good to be the Eagle Shooter. With your archery skills, you can definitely become one. Oh, I wish I could learn Jebe's archery skills. Unfortunately, every time I go to war, my father won't let me go into battle. If you become the Eagle Shooter, you have to kill more enemies for me."

The term "Eagle Shooter" means an archer who can shoot eagles. They have a strong ability to defeat the enemy from a long distance and are the "snipers" of the cold weapon era. They take on tasks such as assassination, detective work, and assault on the battlefield, making them hard to guard against.

At this time, Hua Zheng suddenly asked, "Guo Jing, do you really want to go to the battlefield?"

"The Khan has protected my mother and me for many years. I couldn't help when I was young, but now I must repay the Khan's kindness to the best of my ability." In fact, it's not just that. Guo Jing has heard stories about Chinese emperors from Su Ming.

Many of them were wise and brave. Not to mention governing the country, they were also top-notch generals on the battlefield. After hearing so many stories about the battlefield, Guo Jing also wanted to know what a real battlefield was like.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished saying this, the girl got angry. She got up and looked at Guo Jing with a puffy face, "Hmph, who asked you to repay me, you annoying guy!" After saying that, she ran away.

Guo Jing and Tuo Lei were left looking at each other in confusion.

……

Inside the tent, Su Ming was a little surprised when he learned from Guo Jing that Temujin wanted to see him. He had lived in someone else's territory for so long, it would be difficult for him to refuse the host's request to see him. He was not opposed to meeting Temujin, even though the time was earlier than he expected.

Su Ming nodded gently and glanced at him with a smile, "Master is always free, you can bring him to see me at any time, Jing'er, there is more to say than that, you should have something else to say."

Guo Jing knew that he could not hide it from Su Ming, so he said, "Teacher, next year I want to join the army and fight with the Khan."

"You've made up your mind? Don't you regret it?"

"I have made up my mind and I have no regrets. My teacher once said that a pine tree cannot grow in a flowerpot and an eagle cannot fly out of a birdcage. I have been taught by the masters for many years and have learned a lot of skills. If I continue to hide under the wings of the Khan, wouldn't all these skills be learned in vain?"

"Other children from the grasslands went to the battlefield as teenagers, and I can do the same."

The situation on the grassland is now very tense, with tribes attacking each other. The grassland people drink goat's milk and eat meat since childhood, and they grow fast. They are almost as tall as adults in their teens. In addition, grassland men, women, old and young are all good at riding and shooting, and are natural cavalrymen. In order to survive, they have to go to the battlefield early.

"Since you have made up your mind, I will not stop you, as long as you don't regret it. This matter also needs the permission of your mother and several other masters, otherwise you can't leave."

"Your teacher has taught you so many principles. Now, use what you have learned to convince them. Do you understand?" At this point, a faint smile appeared in Su Ming's eyes.

The plot has changed again!
