Qin Zheng walked around the camp and wanted to go back to the main tent to rest, but unexpectedly saw Shen Haolin and Shen Cha standing not far away, looking at him.
He waved to the two people, waited for them to come up to him, and then said slowly, "What are you two doing standing there?"
"Master, are you here so early?" She looked at Qin Zheng with a smile, "Have you had breakfast?"
"Have eaten!" Qin Zheng nodded, "How about a drink? It sounds like there was a lot of noise all night yesterday, nothing serious, right?"
"Don't worry, the fever has subsided and nothing will happen anymore." Shen Cha thought for a moment and lowered his voice and said, "I just tricked him into accompanying Uncle Wang. I think he can stay in the Hou Mansion for two days."
"Okay, if you can fool him, it won't be in vain for you to spend so much effort." Qin Zheng nodded and led them to the main tent together, "Why did you two come here today? Didn't you want to continue watching? Those things that were moved back from next door?”
"Those can watch slowly. If you haven't been here for a few days, you are worried that these careless boys will become monsters." Shen Cha nodded towards the soldiers who saluted them, "Master has been watching all morning, how do you like it? Is there someone already chosen?”
"Hey, I can't talk about this!" Qin Zheng shook his finger, "But you can rest assured about one thing." He looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and then at Xue Ruitian who was with him, "Your confidant , I won’t choose.”
"Then we would also like to thank Master for being kind enough to leave us manpower, lest we have no one available when the time comes."
"I'm afraid that you guys are setting a trap for me and plotting against me secretly!"
"Master, you have wronged us. We will not do this."
Shen Cha smiled at Qin Zheng and waved to Ying Sixteen and Ying Seventeen who were not far behind him. The two trotted over, opened the curtain of the main tent, and invited them in.
In the main tent, Song Qiyun, Xia Jiu, Jin Jing and several generals were all there. They were talking happily and didn't know what they were talking about. After seeing the people coming in, they immediately stopped talking and saluted Shen Haolin and others.
"What are you talking about? Are you chatting so happily? Let's hear it!" Xue Ruitian looked at the generals and raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's wrong? Is it something you can't tell us?"
"That's not the case, that's for sure not. Deputy Commander, please don't say that." The generals looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and then at Qin Zheng with smiling faces, "There's nothing we can't say, we were just chatting casually. Just two idle words."
"Gossip?" Xue Ruitian glanced at Xia Jiu, who was giving him a wink, "Since it's just gossip, I won't ask."
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!" Lu Shengyuan from the rear army coughed twice and looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "I heard that Xiaojiu is ill and it's quite serious. How is your current situation?"
"It's nothing, thank you for your concern!" Shen Haolin knew from the looks on their faces that they were talking about how to deal with Qin Zheng, and waved to these people, "Okay, do you guys have anything else to do?"
"No more!" Several generals waved their hands quickly, saluted and said goodbye to everyone, "Then let's go." When passing by Qin Zheng, several people nodded slightly, "Old general, see you later!"
Qin Zheng watched them leave, then turned to look at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, then walked to the seat they had prepared for him and sat down.
"What's wrong with them?" Qin Zheng blinked, not understanding, "I came to the camp this morning, and a few of them avoided me, as if I were some wild beast." He looked at Shen Tea, "Do they know that I want to compete with you?"
"This is not a secret. You should know it." Shen Cha nodded, "Isn't this good? You don't have to worry about them. They don't dare to say anything about whoever you want, right?"
"Yes, you have to know sooner or later." Qin Zheng nodded, looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, and then Xue Ruitian, "Is there anything you want to ask me?"
"Yes!" Shen Cha nodded, "Your family has lived in Jiangnan for a long time. Do you know how powerful the Liu family and Luan family are in Jiangnan?"
"The power is not small, but after all, it is later. The so-called strong dragon does not suppress the local snake. The relationship with the local merchants can only be said to be acceptable on the scene." Qin Zheng sneered, "They don't know where they got the information. I have a relationship with the Qin family, and I went to meet my eldest brother rashly, but my eldest brother understands me very well and knows not to cause trouble for me, so he sent me away without even seeing him. "
"But in this case, even if the Qin family expresses its attitude, the local merchants will probably take the Qin family's attitude as the main one."
"Yes." Qin Zheng nodded, "So, it is actually very difficult for them to gain a foothold. It is not as easy as imagined."
"But their business is quite big. There are ten merchants in the fleet alone. They don't look like merchants without any background." Shen Cha handed the tea that Mei Lin had brewed to Qin Zheng, "It's better to Say..." She frowned slightly, "Is there a problem here?"
"I don't know the specifics." Qin Zheng patted Shen Cha on the shoulder, "I knew you wanted to ask about this. I sent you a letter a few days ago. I guess it will take a few days for my brother's reply to arrive. I shouldn’t delay your business.”
"It won't be delayed. We are not the ones who are anxious now." Xue Ruitian sneered, "They sent those people from the southwest just to inquire about our news, mainly about me. Now that we are leaving them alone, we have to let them go." They are impatient. As long as they mess up, we will have an opportunity. So..." He spread his hands, "We can slowly collect some information to find out what happened to our ancestors and find out what the Qinglian Sect is like. What happened? Why did the ancestors and several other founders retire one after another when the Qinglian Sect was at its peak? What happened here that made them so unresponsive and cut off their relationship with the Qinglian Sect? It’s spotless.”
"How should I put it? Qinglian Sect has changed several identities, do you understand?" Qin Zheng saw a few children nodding and continued, "In the beginning, they were really for the country and the people, saving lives and healing the wounded. , but then the taste gradually changed, especially after the Song family's uprising and the Xue family gradually gained influence, the taste changed. The reason why they retired was probably because they didn't want to be established by themselves. I am bound by the organization, and at the same time, I don’t want to personally deal with this organization that I have spent so much effort on.”
"Isn't this just escaping?" Xue Ruitian frowned slightly, "Escape to the end, we will be the unlucky ones."
"No, I can only suffer you. This is what we should do as a descendant, right?" Qin Zheng sighed, took a piece of paper, and scrawled on it without knowing what he was writing. After writing, he handed it directly to Shen Hao. Lin nuzzled at him, "Come and take a look."
"Master, what is this? Why did you write so... a lot?" Shen Cha came over to look at it, was slightly startled, and said, "Is this the person you want?"
