Chapter 287: The new groom
Tong Meng stayed in the military camp as always, Zhang Xiong accompanied Wei Jie back to the general's mansion, and Zhang He was also led by Wei Jie. When the three of them arrived at the Wei Jie carriage, the sky had completely turned dark.
"Can you drive a carriage?"
Wei Jie glanced at Zhang He and signaled him to drive the car in front. After receiving Zhang He's affirmative answer, he continued: "From now on, you can be my and Zhang Xiong's groom!"
Zhang Xiong smiled slightly, and ignored Wei Jie and took the lead and got into the carriage. Although he was a great master of the Mo family and had a very high status, he had long been used to driving the carriage for Wei Jie. He had no resentment in his heart. However, since Wei Jie didn't want him, a great master of the Mo family, he wouldn't be a groom!
"General, isn't Zhang Xiong's carriage well?" Inside the carriage, Zhang Xiong looked out the window and said with a smile.
"Wei Jie can't afford it, and I'm afraid of losing my life!" Wei Jie said with a smile.
"Zhang He is also very good. At present, his skills in driving the car are not inferior to you!"
Zhang Xiong smiled slightly and turned to say, "Where are you going now? I guess the general doesn't plan to go back home yet. If you walk further, you will be a fork in the road!"
"There is no one who knows me better than Zhang Xiong!" Wei Jie smiled slightly.
"Zhang He, go to Wuyi Lane, I'm going to visit Angong!"
Zhang Xiong in the carriage silently pointed to Zhang He at the front of the carriage. Wei Jie smiled, shook his head slightly, and said nothing. Zhang Xiong shrugged. Since Wei Jie chose to trust Zhang He, he naturally would not say much. He still believed in Wei Jie's vision. Didn't he gain Wei Jie's trust in this way?
Little did they know that whether it was Zhang Xiong or Zhang He or Wei Jie, they were not blind trust based on intuition, but his unique response from the comprehending the Book of Heaven!
Wuyi Lane is as quiet as ever. Wuyi Lane in the night forms a sharp contrast with the bustling and noisy Qinhuai River not far away. Zhang He and Zhang Xiong are both here for the first time. Zhang Xiong is fine, after all, he is a master of the Mo family and clearly knows the relationship between Wei Jie and Xie An. He is not nervous at all, but just closes his eyes and pretends to sleep in the carriage.
When passing through the level set up by the Xie family's personal soldiers outside Wuyi Lane, Zhang He was about to stop the carriage for inspection. The guards had waved to signal the carriage to pass. He must have seen the sign of the General's Mansion on the carriage. After Zhang He paused slightly, he did not stop. He rushed the carriage and quickly passed the level and headed straight to the Xie Mansion compound.
"Big Bear, did you deliberately create an opportunity to let Komatsu " pick you up"?
The carriage slowly stopped in the Xie Mansion compound, and the servants from the Xie Mansion came to help park the carriage. Before getting off the car, Wei Jie suddenly asked Zhang Xiong, who had his eyes open after he opened his eyes.
"What do you think?" Zhang Xiong smiled and asked without answering.
"None of these matters anymore. What's important is that Zhang Xiong has found the path he really wants to go!"
Wei Jie smiled slightly, Zhang He had already lifted the curtain of the carriage. Wei Jie walked off the carriage and said again: "Let's go together, I guess you have wanted to see An Gong's style face to face!"
Although Zhang Xiong is a great man from the Mo family, he can only hide his movements and stay away from the center of political rights. Although he has always admired Xie An, he has no chance to contact him. Although the admiration in his heart has been replaced by other emotions, it does not prevent him from wanting to see Xie An's style!
"It's better to obey your orders than to be respectful!"
The moment the carriage stopped in Xie's mansion, Zhang Xiong's eyes opened as soon as possible, and the gleam in his eyes revealed his urgency to meet Xie An. The opportunity was rare, and Wei Jie would naturally satisfy his wish!
…
"Xiaojie, you are here!"
The Xie Mansion had just had dinner. Xie An, Xie Xuan, and Xie Kun were still chatting in Xie An's study. Wei Jie, who received guidance from the servants, did not need to be informed, and took Zhang Xiong to Xie An's study directly. As soon as Xie An saw Wei Jie, he said with a smile.
Xie Xuan also smiled and nodded at Wei Jie, then looked at Zhang Xiong beside the Wei Jie. Zhang Xiong's big body is indeed quite attractive, while Xie Kun just nodded politely without any unnecessary expression!
"Xiao Jie, you handled the conflict at the North City Gate just now very well. You won't blame me for not coming forward to help you solve it, right?" After signaling Wei Jie to sit down and speak, Xie An spoke first.
"How dare Wei Jie blame An Gong!" Wei Jie said with a smile.
"Wei Jie is worried that the An Gong will take action. Fortunately, An Gong still trusts the Wei Jie's ability to do things. The disarmament has arisen because of me. If this small matter cannot be solved, how can the Wei Jie gain a foothold in the Le family army in the future and how can he control the Le family army for An Gong?"
"Everything has its pros and cons. It is indeed a bit difficult for you to deal with this matter alone. However, if you handle this matter well, your reputation among the Le family army will greatly improve, which is also a good thing!" Xie Xuan said with a smile.
"It was Xie Xuan who told Uncle to not take action. Uncle was still worried about your safety just now. If Xie Xuan had not promised you for Xiao Jie, I was afraid that Uncle would have already taken Sima Daozi accountable at this moment!"
Even if Xie An took action, he would naturally not have the knowledge of the soldiers who were laid off from the Le family army. He must have put pressure on Sima Daozi to let him come forward to calm the anger of these people.
"Xiao Jie is not accusing accountable, but there is something else to discuss?" Xie An asked slowly, gently stroked his beard.
"When I returned to An Gong, Wei Jie really encountered a problem and needed An Gong to help me!" Wei Jie showed a helpless look and said with some emotion.
"It's all my family. If you have any difficulties, I need to take action. Just say it directly, there is no need to be so embarrassing!" Xie An looked at Wei Jie who wanted to speak but stopped and said with a smile.
"Grandpa, uncle, General Wei, Xie Kun will leave first!" Before Wei Jie spoke, Xie Kun said resigned first. He must have been not interested in the topic of chatting between Wei Jie and Xie An and others, and wanted to leave Xie An's study.
After Xie An nodded slightly, Xie Kun left the study without looking squinting. Wei Jie then slowly spoke: "An Gong, Xuanshu, the disarmament of the Le family army has now been on track and will be over in two days. It is estimated that the original 20,000 Le family army will be about 12,000 after the disarmament!"
Wei Jie first explained the general situation of the disarmament, and then said: "The selection of soldiers from the assault camp is also taking place at the same time as the disarmament. However, there is a problem at the moment. Under the pressure of An Gong, although Sima Daozi agreed to use Stone City as the training base for the assault camp, he arranged Sima Xiuzhi into the position of the assault camp as the supervisor!"
"Sima Xiuzhi is Sima Daozi's confidant. If he was allowed to confirm this position, Wei Jie was worried that he would be held back in the future and would be unable to get rid of his surveillance!"
