Xiao Zhen did not accept his words, and the King of Liao had to ask, "What are your plans in the future?"

Xiao Zhen said cheerfully: "Caomin found a job in Fuyun rice shop, and it was enough to support his family."

The King of Liao smiled bitterly: "You are full of martial arts and carrying rice and grain is useless. You should come to my side to do things. The Huns repeatedly invade my surrounding borders, and the court needs generals like you."

On the battlefield two years ago, Xiao Zhen was the first to break through the enemy formation and kill several generals of Liang State. The King of Liao could see clearly from a distance and had long been loving talent. In the first month of the capital, Li Yong framed Xiao Zhen, but the King of Liao knew it very well but did not expose Li Yong. In order to wait for the court to give up Xiao Zhen, he would wait for an opportunity to bring Xiao Zhen under his command.

Therefore, as early as after Li Yong returned to Zhangcheng to announce the imperial edict, the King of Liao sent someone to stare at Xiao Zhen's whereabouts and delayed three months before appearing, to avoid arousing suspicion from the court or Xiao Zhen.

Faced with the intentional promotion of the Liao King, Xiao Zhen was unmoved and knelt down and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but the grass-roots people prefer the freedom on the streets of the city and don't want to be involved in the officialdom again."

The King of Liao was funny and looked at him and said, "Look at you being nearly nine feet tall and majestic. Such a small setback actually defeated your ambitions? Did you join the army to make meritorious and promote your country, rather than defending your country?"

Xiao Zhen was silent.

When I was young, why did I join the army?

Because he heard that the Huns were killing, burning and looting on the frontier, and seeing an old woman pounced on her son's clothes and cried bitterly, and a rage rose in his chest, he left the escort bureau master who taught him martial arts and joined the army north with his passion. He was poor from his background, and Xiao Zhen liked to have no worries about food and clothing after he was appointed as an official, but he enjoyed the passion of the golden swords and iron horses on the battlefield. He wanted to see the Huns retreat step by step and dare not invade the Central Plains again.

The Liao King said: "My four guards were dispatched by the court, and the guards were all assigned by the court. However, I still have 3,000 personal soldiers, and these 3,000 soldiers and horses are only ordered by my king. As long as you are willing to follow me, I will hand over these 3,000 soldiers to your commander. In this way, you don't have to worry about the sinister hearts of the officialdom, and you can also show your ambitions on the battlefield."

Xiao Zhen was a little moved.

The King of Liao continued: "I have prepared a house for you. Just lead the army with peace of mind. I will keep your family safe and prosperous. A real man is born as a human being. First, he must make achievements and second, he hopes to protect his family. Don't you want them to live a good life of luxury and wealth?"

Xiao Zhen thought!

He is not afraid of hardship, but he doesn't want his younger brother and sister to suffer with him!

With his chest raised, Xiao Zhen looked straight at the Liao King and said, "Thank you for your respect, Caomin is willing to serve the prince, but Caomin is born straight and will never go around the bush. The prince's military orders are absolutely obedient. However, if the prince wants to tell the people about marriage to Caomin, or other Caomin is unwilling to do, Caomin will never force himself to do it. Therefore, if the prince can tolerate such a minister, Caomin will follow you. The prince cannot accept it. It is better for the Caomin to not go, so as not to anger the prince in the future."

When the King of Liao heard this, he suddenly laughed openly, and even the three Su Jinniang and the three of them in the backyard heard it.

"What a rectal!"

After laughing enough, the King of Liao stepped forward to help Xiao Zhen up, held Xiao Zhen's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Commander Xiao, I promise you today that as long as you do your part, I will never blame you for trivial matters such as human relationships and worldly affairs. A man can do whatever he wants and do whatever he wants, and you can be ashamed of the conscience of heaven and earth."

Xiao Zhen had met the hypocritical Li Yong before, and at this moment he couldn't help but confirm: "Your Majesty is serious?"

The King of Liao restrained his smile and said solemnly: "I promise a thousand gold."

Xiao Zhen knelt down again and officially recognized the King of Liao as the main person.

It was already dark, and the King of Liao chatted with Xiao Zhen for a while before leaving. Before leaving, he told Xiao Zhen that he would send someone to pick up Xiao Zhen's family and move to the new mansion tomorrow.

Watching the King of Liao go away, Xiao Zhen stood for a moment, turned around and stepped into the house, and walked around the screen wall. He saw Su Jin standing at the corner of the corridor holding a child with one hand, looking at him worriedly, as if he was afraid that his mother would be expelled again.

Thinking of the miserable miserable journey of the group huddled in the donkey cart in the first month of the year, Xiao Zhen's chest was sore, and then he secretly swore that he would never let Su Jinniang and the other three suffer such grievances in his life.

"Go and sit in the house." Xiao Zhen smiled and pointed to the main hall.

When he smiled, Su Jin felt relieved, and guessed that it was definitely not a bad thing.

When he arrived at the main hall, Xiao Zhen hugged Aman and said to Su Jin, "I went back to the city this morning and met the King of Liao outside the city. The King of Liao recognized me. He just came to appreciate some of the contributions I made before, and promised that I was the commander of the three thousand personal soldiers of the Liao Palace."

Three-year-old Aman looked at his godfather's lips silly, not understanding what his godfather was saying.

Eight-year-old Archer thoughtful.

Su Jin, a young woman in the city, was not very clear about various official positions, but she could calculate that when Xiao Zhen was a fifth-rank thousand household, he only had one thousand people in his hands. Li Yong, the commander of the third-rank Zhangcheng Guard, was in charge of five thousand soldiers. So, Xiao Zhen, the personal commander, was about the fourth-rank official?

Xiao Zhen laughed and said, "Every prince can raise three thousand soldiers. If he is not under the jurisdiction of the court, he will have no official position."

Su Jin blurted out in surprise: "Will the prince give you a salary?"

Xiao Zhen was speechless for a moment, and looked at the little woman's wide eyes and said, "It should be that there is. The prince didn't mention it, and I didn't ask either. However, the prince sent me a mansion and sent someone to pick us up tomorrow morning."

When Su Jin heard that there was a house, he was immediately satisfied. Fengyang City, like the two small courtyards she rented now, were worth hundreds of taels of silver.

only……

"As soon as the court dismissed your official position, the prince accepted you and passed it to the capital, will the emperor be angry?" Su Jin asked in confusion. Isn't the Liao King's action demolishing his emperor's position?

Xiao Zhen said unhappyly: "If the prince dares to use me, he must have his reason. If the court surrenders, at worst we can move out again."

Su Jin nodded, this is indeed the case.

But Xiao Zhen finally got another official, perhaps it was his last chance in his life. Su Jin advised earnestly: "Adults should meet noble people in their destiny, and they are destined to be an official, but in the future, you must think twice before doing anything..."

Xiao Zhen's ears were so calloused that he heard this, but after all, he suffered a loss once, and no longer felt that Su Jin was worried. Instead, he smiled and said his solution, that is, the promise he asked the King of Liao.

Su Jinxin thought, saying that it was unreasonable, and Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty promised not to kill Han Xin, but in the end he killed the person?

However, looking at the silly smirk on Xiao Zhen's face, Su Jin stopped his interest. When Xiao Zhen digs again next time, she will not care whether he likes to listen or not. She must hold this stubborn donkey.

The next day, the King of Liao really sent someone to help Xiao Zhen move, and took advantage of the situation to send Xiao Zhen two servants and four maids.

Before moving, I first recognized the owner. One of the two servants was Xu Wen and the other was Xu Wu. They were brothers, young and strong.

All four maids were fair-skinned and beautiful. Chunlan and Xia Zhu were used for Xiao Zhen. They were seventeen or eighteen years old and had a delicate figure. Qiuju and winter plum gave Su Jin. These two girls were only fourteen or five years old, and their appearance was slightly inferior to Chunlan and Xia Zhu, but they were more regular and dedicated, and they didn't look at Xiao Zhen at all.

Xiao Zhen always serves Chuntao in daily life, that is, he cleans the room with quilts and washes and dresses. Xiao Zhen is more used to doing it himself. At this moment, the King of Liao sent their maids in one breath, but it was not enough. Xiao Zhen said to Su Jin: "One Chuntao in the front yard is enough, and these two are for the younger brother and sister."

Su Jin was not stupid. King Liao deliberately chose two older ones, which was obviously pitying Xiao Zhen and giving him a family room!

Seeing that the beautiful maid named Chunlan had pursed her lips, Su Jin hurriedly said, "The prince is willing to give it to someone, how can the lord refuse?"

She didn't want it, but Xiao Zhen couldn't retreat, so he had to accept it.

The whole family was determined to move first, and there were Qiuju and Dongmei. Su Jin just held his daughter and directed next to him. By the way, he observed the two new maids and found that Qiuju was smarter. Guan Ruyi called her sister with a sweet mouth. Dongmei was more restrained, but she was not slow in her hand, and she was busy in and out, and was very capable.

The new and old maids in the backyard were happy, but the front yard was different. As soon as Chuntao opened Xiao Zhen’s wardrobe, Chunlan, a beautiful almond-eyed maid, squeezed over and rushed to clean up, and carried a bunch of clothes on the kang.

Chuntao pouted. She didn't like Chunlan as her name was similar, but now she doesn't like Chunlan even more.

Chunlan didn't care about her and found a patched gray robe. Chunlan's eyes lit up and she immediately stepped out of the bedroom with her clothes in her arms. Seeing Xiao Zhen standing in the yard talking to the Xu brothers, Chunlan slowed down and then walked over with small steps. Xiao Zhen turned his head to look at her. Chunlan's pretty face turned red, she held up her robe and asked in a soft voice: "Sir, is this dress torn like this, do you still want it?"

Xiao Zhen was puzzled: "Why don't you?"

Chunlan looked at him shyly, her face turned redder, and she explained: "The lord is now doing business for the prince, and his identity is different from the past..."

After all, Xiao Zhen was a soldier for three years. He never got into women, but he had never eaten pork and hadn't seen pig run away? Seeing Chunlan's frivolous expression, she wanted to hook up and pretend to be reserved, and dared to pick on his clothes, Xiao Zhen was displeased and just wanted to try the heart of the King of Liao. Xiao Zhen ordered the new servant Xu Wen: "This woman disliked Xiao's low status. Xiao didn't want to force others to do anything. You can quickly send her back to the prince's mansion and tell the prince, saying that Xiao was not used to too many people around him to serve him, so the prince didn't need to send him away again."

Xu Wen said respectfully: "Yes!"

After saying that, Xu Wen said to Chunlan with a blank expression: "Send your clothes back and follow me immediately."

Chunlanhua was so beautiful that she was returned for this reason. Can she still be well?

"Sir, I absolutely have no intention of disdaining you. Please beg you to be kind and bypass Chunlan!" The woman who just wanted to compete for favor with her beauty is now kneeling on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, crying pitifully.

Xiao Zhen didn't even look at it, and went to the backyard with his hands behind his back. When he turned the corner, he caught Xu Wen forcibly dragging Chunlan away.

Xiao Zhen snorted. He is a military officer and often talks with others, not wearing old clothes. Do you still wear new clothes and fight with the soldiers?

When they arrived at the backyard, Xiao Zhen looked at Qiuju and Dongmei who were working in a gloomy manner, so that the two girls didn't dare to look up.

Su Jin said strangely: "Sir, have something to do?"

Xiao Zhen said in a low voice: "There is a maid in the front yard who doesn't understand the rules. I'll send her back to the palace. What about you two?"

When Qiuju and Dongmei heard this, they put down their work together, knelt in front of the two masters side by side, and lowered their heads and said, "I don't dare!"

Xiao Zhen looked serious.

Su Jin hurriedly testified for the two women: "They are both pretty good. Which one in the front yard made a mistake? What did you make a mistake?"

Chunlan made the mistake of seducing a man. How did Xiao Zhen say this to his younger brother and sister?

"Don't worry, if they make a mistake, just tell me." Xiao Zhen said with a stern expression, and walked back after saying that.

Su Jin chased after him and whispered to him: "Why did the maid sent by the prince retreat at any time? Just scold me, don't retreat."

Xiao Zhen said with a cold face: "I have already set out, and my brother and sister don't need to persuade me anymore."

The man's back was tall and cold as a mountain. He said the truth. Su Jin was so angry that his chest was undulating. Suddenly, he shouted at Ruyi and some maids, "Don't move, I won't go anywhere!"

The maids were stunned. Xiao Zhen was halfway through and turned around when he heard the sound. He saw Su Jin's back walking towards him, taking small steps quickly.

Xiao Zhen called her: "Brother and sister-in-law!"

Su Jin stopped on the steps in front of the house, turned around, and Danfeng's eyes slanted against him coldly.

Xiao Zhen had to turn back and frowned and said, "What does brother and sister mean?"

Su Jin didn't care whether there was a maid around him. He put his hands on his hips and pointed at the box in the yard with the other hand and said sarcastically: "The prince's maid dares to retreat, he is really not afraid of heaven or earth. I, Su Jin, are timid. Instead of following the adults to the new mansion and living tremblingly, always worried that the adults would offend the prince and be expelled from the mansion, it would be better to continue living in this small courtyard. Although I am a little poor, the three of us live a stable life!"

Xiao Zhen had a headache and looked up at her: "The prince is not that narrow-minded person."

Su Jin spat at him: "Yeah, this sounds really familiar!"

The maids were confused and Xiao Zhener felt inexplicably hot. I don’t know if it was because the little woman sprayed a few saliva on his face, or because he once said that Li Yong was broad-minded and had a bad plan.

The two looked at each other, Xiao Zhen was in a position of fault and gave in: "What should I do? Only my brother and sister will move with me?"

He was willing to discuss, and Su Jin's face calmed down, and he stopped raising his hips. He held the veil and made a condition: "I, a woman, can't interfere with the military affairs, but the adults must breathe with me before making any decisions in this house. You can't do anything like last time, but we three are kept in the dark. When the yamen runners come to our door, we can only be slaughtered for nothing."

When Xiao Zhen mentioned this, he felt guilty and pursed his lips. He nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

Su Jin glared at him, and before his eyes could turn to the maids, he shouted: "Why are you still standing there? Work quickly!"

The maids took action again, Su Jin picked up Aman who was frightened by her and coaxed softly: "Don't be afraid of Aman, we will live in a big house in a while."

My mother was happy, and Aman smiled with a smile on his face.

Xiao Zhen looked blankly for a while before leaving, his mind was empty.

The little woman's face change speed is so fast.
