When Lin Ji heard this person's name, his first reaction was that his surname was Qin.
"Surname Qin?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows and pointed to the sky.
Qin Jinsong laughed when he saw this and said, "Hahaha, there are so many people named Qin in the world!"
"That's it..."
"But I am that Qin!"
Lin Ji's expression froze, and he subconsciously took two steps back, looking at Qin Jinsong with an inexplicable look.
Just a few words made Lin Ji not want to deal with him.
I have to say, this is also a skill.
But Qin Jinsong was quite familiar with Lin Ji and led him walking in Beiguan City.
"Although I am from the Qin family, I was sent away since I was a child. I have never been to the capital as an adult. I am said to be from the Qin family, but it is just a name."
"Master Qin is already a third-grade town official, and he has never even been to the capital? This is too..."
"Too outrageous? Haha, I would like to see my ancestral home, but my nephew doesn't want to see me."
Hearing this, Lin Ji twitched his lips and took a half step away from Qin Jinsong.
"The nephew you are talking about is...?"
"Qin Pei."
Lin Ji looked as if this was indeed the case, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Qin, for leading Lin into the city. However, Lin has important matters to attend to, so I will leave now."
As soon as the words fell, Lin Ji was ready to leave.
But after taking two steps, he was suddenly grabbed by Qin Jinsong's arm.
"What kind of errands can Brother Lin have in Beiguan City? If someone from the capital comes to Yunzhou, all details will be brought to me. Even if I don't have to help, I still want to know."
After a pause, Qin Jinsong thought for a moment and asked, "Is it the Zhang Dahe case?"
"You also know this?" Lin Ji was stunned.
How long did it take before and after this? Was it half a day?
"Hahaha, Feiyun Sect has lost a sixth-grade elder, and the Zhenbei Army has deposed a fourth-grade general. There are also people from Supervisor Tiansi mingling among them. How could I not know about such a big thing? "
With that said, Qin Jinsong patted Lin Ji's shoulder.
"Brother Lin, do you think I, a dignified third-grade town official, personally left the city to deal with something?"
After hearing this, Lin Ji suddenly realized.
Zhang Dahe's incident was nothing, but the fact that he killed the Feiyun Sect elder was indeed worthy of Qin Jinsong's immediate trip after hearing about it.
Follow Qin Jinsong all the way to the Yunzhou government office.
On the way, Lin Ji also briefly described the matter. It was probably because the Feiyun Sect elder went too far, so he taught him a lesson, and he accidentally struck too hard.
After sitting down in the hall, Qin Jinsong said with a smile: "I saw that Zhang Dahe. He has a great sense of righteousness in his body. He is a person who does not deserve to die, so I did not embarrass him."
"Thank you." Lin Ji stood up and saluted slightly, thanking Zhang Dahe.
"He is following General Song of the Zhenbei Army. It seems that he is preparing to change his name and join the army... But judging from the posture of the barbarians this year, he may not be able to survive the battlefield."
Hearing this, Lin Ji's pupils narrowed slightly.
"Zhang Dahe is a Yuanshen monk. His skills should not be too bad during the night tour. Even he can't survive?"
"Brother Lin doesn't know how harsh the Zhenbei Army is to the monks." The smile on Qin Jinsong's face also faded a bit, "You said that if there is a chance to enter cultivation, how many of them will join the army? How many monks in the army are there? There are not many, and the strong ones in the fifth realm are even rarer."
"If that's the case, shouldn't we be more protected?"
"How to protect them? Is it possible to watch the barbarian monks rush into your battle formation and slaughter your brothers?"
Qin Jinsong shook his head and said: "In previous barbarian wars, we relied on monks from all over the Nine Provinces to fight against the brothers of Jian Tiansi. On the contrary, the Zhenbei Army had few monks, so it was quite passive."
"It is precisely because of this that if a fifth-level person joins me, I can imagine what Lu Nanting will do with my butt."
As he spoke, Qin Jinsong picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup, and placed the teapot in front of Lin Ji.
"You have to drink it and pour it yourself."
"Yes." Lin Ji responded.
After Qin Jinsong took a sip of tea, he narrowed his eyes slightly and lowered his voice and said: "Look, in less than three days, there will be a notice posted at the Zhenbei Army barracks in the city. There is an extra general. At least he will be given a fourth-grade title. , and then give him a heavy reward. When the real war comes later, that Zhang Dahe will definitely be sent to the most dangerous front."
"If that's true, then wouldn't there be no monks to join the army?" Lin Ji frowned, "If a monk wants to serve the court, besides Supervising Tiansi, the only way is to join the army, right?"
"This is a problem that has always been there. It's not Lao Lu's fault. It's difficult for him too."
Seeing that Lin Ji was a little confused, Qin Jinsong slapped his forehead and said: "General Lu Nanting of Zhenbei, you are a poor man."
Speaking of this, Qin Jinsong seemed to notice that Lin Ji was a little distracted.
"Let's not talk about these troublesome things. Brother Lin is about to return to the capital after finishing his work. Do you want to visit Yunzhou?"
"I came to Beiguan to find someone, who is also from Supervisor Tiansi." Lin Ji said bluntly.
"Oh? Who are you looking for?"
"Zhang Qixian and his wife."
Upon hearing the name, Qin Jinsong's expression froze, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Why, did the couple provoke Brother Lin?"
"It's not really provocation, but I have to talk to them about some things."
"Easy to handle!" Qin Jinsong nodded.
"Somebody come!"
Soon someone from the government office came in.
"Are Zhang Qixian and Liu Meng, two traveling stars, in the city?"
"Here I am. I came to the Yamen not long ago and then went home."
"Get it!"
"As commanded."
After waiting in the hall for less than a quarter of an hour, Zhang Qixian appeared with Liu Meng.
Before entering the hall, Zhang Qixian's voice rang out first.
"Master Qin, both of us are injured. If we have any errands, please leave them to other colleagues..."
Halfway through the conversation, Zhang Qixian and his wife happened to walk in and saw Lin Ji sitting in the next seat.
I saw Zhang Qixian's expression changing quickly, first surprised, then worried, and finally turned into a deep joy.
"Master Lin, are you okay? That's great!"
Lin Ji chuckled. He never liked to beat around the bush.
"Brother Zhang, you just stole someone's fruit, but you are still unwilling to tell the truth at a critical moment. How are you going to explain this to me?"
As soon as these words came out, the joy on Zhang Qixian's face suddenly disappeared without a trace, and then he looked at his wife Liu Meng beside him with some embarrassment.
Liu Meng smiled.
"Why did Mr. Lin say this? I don't understand..."
"Come on, I've already talked to that old cow, so don't prevaricate with me."
After a pause, Lin Ji glanced at Qin Jinsong who was confused and felt that there was nothing to avoid.
So he grinned at Zhang Qixian and his wife.
"As the saying goes, you share half of the green pear fruit when you meet me. I saved you from being killed. Isn't it too much to share half of the green pear fruit with me?"
