Chapter 352 Qiu Xian
"Sit down, are you on duty today?"
The great elder sat down at the table, motioned for Gelong to sit down, and asked Gelong if the cavalry team on duty at Maori Hall was him. Because Gelong came too fast, the great elder asked Gelong.
"No, the person on duty at Maori Hall today is Long Duotai. I went to have a drink with him today. When the senior brother arrived, I happened to be there, so I came with him."
Geron sat firmly and quickly explained to the First Elder that he was really not on duty today. He should have gone to the Fourth Elder to show his face. After all, it was the Fourth Elder's celebration day and he should have gone to congratulate him. , but he wanted to avoid suspicion and not let people know that his relationship with the Great Elder was too close, because the last time he went to investigate Xishan Pass, the cause of Bai Diao's death was from their cavalry, which made some people suspicious. After all, this Geron was too obedient, and he just went as he was told, but Geron was able to put off the situation because of his noble status as a great elder. This was a reasonable reason.
So this time, Gelong didn't want to go to the fourth elder's celebration day, so as not to make people suspicious, but he couldn't do it without any reason. It just so happened that the cavalry team on duty at Maori Hall today was Long Duotai. Their relationship Very good, so he brought some food and wine to Ronduotai, and accompanied Ronduotai on duty. This can be regarded as a reasonable explanation.
"How dare you drink while on duty? I'm not afraid that the Eighth Elder will find out and punish you."
When the great elder heard that Gelong actually went to drink with the commander on duty, this was not a big or small problem. He drank while on duty. It would be fine if no one would pursue it. It would be fine if he fooled him, but if Someone is deliberately targeting him, which is a big trouble. He might lose his position as commander. It depends on what the eighth elder says. If the eighth elder is deliberately targeting him, it will be a big problem for Gelong.
"Great Elder, the Eighth Elder has not doubted me yet. When I was on duty a few days ago, the Eighth Elder wanted to win me over. Moreover, this Long Duotai is a confidant of the Eighth Elder. I went to him for a drink, and he was the one who was on duty. It’s worth it, if something really happens, he’ll be in bigger trouble than me.”
When Gelong heard that the Great Elder said that he drank while on duty, and that the Eighth Elder would punish him, he really didn't take it seriously. He even thought that the Great Elder was making a fuss. Now all the officials of Maori Hall drink while on duty. , as long as you don’t drink too much or get drunk, then nothing will happen. Although drinking may cause trouble, it’s because you drank too much. If you drink too much, you will definitely cause trouble. They are not that kind of people. Jiu Mengzi, who forgets whose biological father is his father, what can he do if he drinks a little wine?
Moreover, he did not clearly indicate that he was the Great Elder. The Eighth Elder would only target him unless he was mad and mad. And because this matter was aimed at him, let’s take down the Eighth Elder’s confidant Long Duotai first. He happened to be on duty today, while Gron was resting.
"Well, you should be careful anyway."
The Great Elder nodded and couldn't go too deep. He still knew a little about the methods of his subordinates. He couldn't let his subordinates lose their awe, but he couldn't let his subordinates resent him and feel that he was the leader. If he is tired of being verbose, otherwise his subordinates will be close to rebelling. The representative figure among them is the Dongxing leading camel in the Young and Dangerous movies. This is a typical example of being backlashed by his own subordinates.
"Yes, don't worry, Great Elder. I'm always very careful in my position."
Gelong clasped his fists in salute and answered the elder respectfully. In his heart, he felt that the elder was pretty good. Although he was a bit verbose due to his age, he still got to the point and never annoyed anyone. This made Gelong not dissatisfied.
"I called you here this time because I have something to do."
The Great Elder didn't want to go around in circles with him. There were no outsiders here, and Geron was one of his own who had taken refuge in him. Naturally, there was no need to say anything else, just get to the point.
"Please give me the instructions of the Great Elder. I must do my best for this humble position."
Gelong knew that the great elder would not call him if he had nothing to do. Since someone was looking for him, there must be a task assigned to him. He happened to be resting, and he would get more benefits if he had a task, so he naturally responded quickly. Come down and show your loyalty properly.
"The Yue family has already made some moves, and I don't know what they are going to do. The saint asked the cavalry on duty to investigate every quarter of an hour. I need you to do something."
The great elder told Gelong about the premise of this matter. This is also the news that the great elder has just received. This information can also make it easier for Gelong to deploy manpower and know how to use his strength.
"I don't know, how about a humble position?"
When Gelong heard that it was about the Yue family, he knew it. He had been there when the Holy Lady sent someone to deliver the message. At that time, he had just arrived at Maori Hall and had just sat down and was talking to Long Duotai. Moreover, this Long Duotai Still in front of him, he gave the order to his men, asking his horse team to separate an elite hundred-man team to scout the horses. At this moment, he reported the movements of the Yue family. At this moment, he said everything the elder said. I watched it in front of Maori Hall.
"I need you to take your brothers and take action when you see the right moment. Kill those who can be killed and harass those who can be harassed. If the Yue family wants to escape, the saint will definitely make big moves. You see the right moment and give it to me. Kill them all."
When the elder spoke, he gritted his teeth and had a scowl on his face. The expression on his face was ferocious and twisted. When he thought of his second son, his heart felt like a knife. His hatred for the Yue family almost made him almost Out of control, his eldest son was a helpless Adou. Finally, the second son looked like him and felt that he was a talent. He was buried alive by the Yue family at Xishan Pass. How could the elder not hate this? .
"This...? I wonder if there is a specific plan?"
Gelong was confused when he heard this. There was no specific plan. Moreover, the shaman saint had already said that it was just to inquire, so he couldn't take action directly. Otherwise, the saint would not be able to explain it to him, and if there was any movement this time If he gets older, he will tell everyone that he is the great elder, which is not in his interests.
He sought refuge with the Great Elder just because he wanted a backer. It would be best if he could take advantage and not suffer any losses, but he could not be completely tied to the Great Elder. However, he thought that the Great Elder meant to take revenge on the Yue family, so he had no concerns about anything else. , this is not the result he wants.
"If you are out there and military orders are not respected, just do what is convenient for you. If you think there is an opportunity, take action. If you need manpower or supplies, just ask someone to come to me. I will try my best to satisfy you."
When the great elder heard that Gelong did not agree immediately, he instead asked him if he had any specific plans. Only then did he realize that he had lost his temper due to the influence of hatred just now, but now he quickly adjusted.
