Zhou Cang put down his wine glass and glanced at Adjutant Li, who was sitting next to him. He had only seen this person in the Eastern Army camp before, and he always greeted him with a smile but kept him away from others. The kind of person who is easy to talk but not easy to get things done.
But this time, Zhou Cang found that the other party's attitude towards him had changed significantly than before, and his smile was a little more intimate. It soon became clear that perhaps this was the change that only came about after "entering Shi Xuan's eyes".
But this time Zhou Cang was really shocked. He had hurriedly sent the message that Zhang Yan asked him to convey to the Eastern Army camp. He thought that the military commander would reply to the letter and ask him to temporarily stabilize Zhang Yan, and then make other plans. This is in line with Shi Junshuai's consistent style of planning before taking action. But he didn't expect that the military commander would directly send his confidant adjutant Li He. This level of emphasis is already obvious. He even said that the military commander did not want to talk to Zhang Yan through his words, but wanted to be more direct.
So, to be honest, Zhou Cang still doesn't know what Li He brought to Zhang Yan.
"Haha, I've heard Mr. Luo say that Mr. Zhang's drinking capacity is the same, even if he drinks sweet wine. Today, Mr. Li is here, and I'll just serve him a few more drinks. Besides, Mr. Luo has a lot of wine here. Master Li may have met his opponent today! Hahaha..." Zhou Cang continued Luo Changshan's words to warm up the show.
Hearing this, Li He waved his hand and said, "My drinking capacity is about the same as Mr. Zhou, but far behind Mr. Luo. I don't dare to make mistakes. But the military commander said something before I came here. , he said he wanted me to offer Mr. Zhang a few glasses of wine, and I hope he won’t refuse. Just drink some sweet wine.”
Zhang Yan naturally raised the wine glass in his hand and politely clinked four glasses with the other party. The first three glasses of wine were served by Dai Shixuan, and the last glass was served by himself.
Fortunately, Zhang Yan drank sweet wine, so the amount of Zezha wine did not bother him. And since Li He mentioned Shi Xuan, there must be more to come next. So after putting down the cup, Zhang Yan looked at the other person and waited for the next step.
Siluke
Li He drank strong wine, but after four glasses of wine, his face was not red, and his eyes were not cloudy at all, which showed that his drinking capacity was as high as Zhou Cang said just now.
"Mr. Zhang asked Mr. Zhou to bring some words to the military commander. The military commander has already received it. Because the army really can't leave, let me tell him in person. Please don't misunderstand. Regarding the bone strengthening pill. , it is your unique skill, and it is also the unique skill of your lineage. Whether you become famous or not depends entirely on your thoughts. The military commander will never do anything you don’t like. Please rest assured about this."
After saying this, Shi Xuan's attitude was expressed, but then Li He continued: "But with my wisdom, I can also think that there is no air-proof wall in the world, let alone a rare treasure like the Bone Strengthening Pill. Even if the military commander doesn't say it, , no one else will say it, but how can it be hidden from the eyes of those who are interested? Even though it is not what I want, my talent will definitely become famous all over the world and be sought after by millions of people."
Facts are facts. Although the words Shi Xuan asked Li He to bring may sound to save Zhang Yan's face, they are actually no different from what Zhou Cang said to Zhang Yan before. The meaning is the same: you can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it for the rest of your life.
However, Zhang Yan did not answer the call. There are some things that he doesn’t need to say. Neither Zhou Cang nor Shi Xuan is a good person about the bone-strengthening pill. Would they be willing to share it with everyone in the world so easily? Are you willing to give up this great opportunity to build a personal relationship with Zhang Yan?
Zhou Cang didn't seem to have enough status in this matter, so he couldn't help Zhang Yan. But Shi Xuan was different. He held the post of general manager of the Eastern Army, commanded the troops of the three counties, and had arbitrary power during war. Such a position could be said to have overwhelming power, which could not be claimed by anyone other than a member of the country. Therefore, Shi Xuan would naturally not be as helpless as Zhou Cang.
Sure enough, Li He continued: "The commander-in-chief means that if you don't want to be famous and don't like trouble, you can just find a door to block out all the people and things that you don't like. What do you want to do next? Just do whatever you want and don't do anything. Even the bone-strengthening pill can be practiced as long as the gentleman wants to do it. No one will force him to practice if he doesn't want to practice. The gentleman can have complete freedom and autonomy. But there must be some changes in the name. "
When Li He said these words, his tone was not fast, it could even be said to be very slow. He spoke every word while carefully observing the face of Zhang Yan sitting opposite. After he finished speaking, he found that there was no clue on Zhang Yan's face, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. I was worried that Zhang Yan would be dissatisfied.
So Li He quickly added: "Of course, if Mr. Zhang has any ideas, you can tell him. The military commander means that he will do his best to help Mr. Zhang."
Li He's current appearance opened Zhou Cang's eyes. Who could believe that the dignified adjutant of Commander Shi could be so kind and even talk to others in an obviously lovable manner? Instead, he was drinking and pouring himself. Luo Changshan, who didn't seem to care about the people and things around him, didn't even raise his eyes.
Zhang Yan smiled, looked at Li He and said, "I want to hear what the military commander wants first. Where can a commoner like Zhang Yan find the 'door' that can block the chaos?"
"Mr. Zhang's miscellaneous skills are already astonishing. Now that the Bone Strengthening Pill comes out, he can become a sect. Can't go where he wants to go? The main reason is that the military commander is worried that he will be troubled by these trivial matters. He proposed a way to make it easier for him to choose. That is to join the Jiangwu Academy as a teacher. At the same time, the Eastern Army issued an order to allow Mr. Xiang to act freely, which is not subject to the control of the Academy. Once the story of the Bone Strengthening Pill is spread in the future, 99% of the people will also be upset. Don’t come in front of sir. The remaining 10%, the military commander will just find a way to help sir resolve it.”
Zhang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. He had previously thought that Shi Xuan would give him a compromise method to counteract the external influence of the Bone Strengthening Pill, while still being within the scope of the other party's rights. For example, go directly to the garrison or to the Eastern Army. These are not what Zhang Yan wants to see. Because it is very likely to be controlled by Shi Xuan, which will be a hindrance in the future.
But Shi Xuan didn't mention Zhang Yan's entry into the garrison or the Eastern Army at all, but instead mentioned the martial arts academy. This was indeed completely beyond Zhang Yan's expectation.
The martial arts academy is no better than the military. Although it is inextricably linked to the Military Academy, the Military Academy is the Military Academy and the Military Academy is the Military Academy. The two cannot be confused. And compared to the military, the strength and confidence of the Wuyuan Academy is only stronger. Even in terms of influence, the Martial Arts Academy ranks higher than the military.
"But can a person like me, who has the experience of a criminal soldier, be qualified for this position as an instructor?"
When Li He heard Zhang Yan's words, he felt relieved. It can be heard that Zhang Yan does not have much resistance to entering the Jiangwu Academy. It's better to continue talking about it later.
