Chapter 374(1/2)
After returning to Ganzhou City, Du Yong immediately asked for leave from Nie Qingyun and wanted to go back to Beijing to take a look. Please ask for half a month.
Nie Qingyun first approved the holiday, and then smiled and said, "I just happened to be going back to Beijing to report my work, so let's go together!"
Du Yong's heart moved and congratulated him: "Mr. General Manager, this time, you have made great contributions and have to be awarded the title again, right?"
"I don't know yet!"
Nie Qingyun smiled and said solemnly: "With my current title, it may not be a good thing to promote another title. You are not a fool, you must understand this."
Du Yong nodded.
Nie Qingyun is now the general manager of Ganzhou, and his official position can no longer be promoted. He is the Grand Duke. If he is promoted again, he will be granted the title of king.
In the entire Da Yan Dynasty, there were only a few kings of different surnames, all of whom had retired old men and had made great achievements.
His Majesty wanted to be the king of Qu Wu before, but he was pushed away and he pushed him three times in a row.
Nie Qingyun looked at Du Yong and asked Surong: "What do you think about this?"
For some reason, Nie Qingyun likes to listen to Du Yong’s ideas. Even if it’s not a good idea, it sounds interesting.
How could Du Yong express his opinion casually? Just when he was about to refuse, he saw Nie Qingyun staring at his eyes and could only whisper: "Sir, why don't you make a badge between the Ministry of Rites and the Cabinet?"
Nie Qingyun's eyes lit up, and he immediately dimmed, and he smiled bitterly: "Don't be funny, you kid, the iron hat is more rare than the king of a different surname. Moreover, I have no friends in the Ministry of Rites, and the cabinet's bosses are not very familiar with each other, so I just have normal contacts."
Du Yong said in a deep voice: "Although the iron hat is even more rare, it is not as arrogant as the king of a different surname. The general manager of Ganzhou and the king of a different surname, what do others think?"
Nie Qingyun nodded, this is indeed the case.
As an official, he is actually a headache after making great contributions. If someone praises him and calls him a king of a different surname, then his position as the chief manager of the Ganzhou Province will probably be difficult to maintain.
Du Yong changed the topic and asked, "Sir, the magistrate of Nie Wentao, please ask me to find out your words."
Nie Qingyun frowned slightly, obviously a little unhappy: "What's wrong with Nie Wentao that can't report directly? You're asking you to find out?"
In his opinion, Nie Wentao is already his own person, so it is not a good thing to be so awkward.
Du Yong quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong. County Magistrate Nie wants to rebuild Huaili City. He knows that silver is very nervous. If he speaks directly to you, he may be afraid that you will be embarrassed, and it will be embarrassing at that time."
Since Nie Wentao defected to Nie Qingyun, he has not yet asked for anything seriously. If the first thing makes Nie Qingyun very embarrassed, it is indeed embarrassing.
"That's how it works!"
Nie Qingyun nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said lightly: "I will talk to him about the reconstruction of Huaili City in detail."
Du Yonggong bowed: "If there is nothing else, then my subordinate will say goodbye."
Nie Qingyun waved his hand.
Two days later, Nie Qingyun, Qu Yixiong, Du Yong and others returned to Beijing together.
Du Yong and his party had seven people and three carriages.
The first one was Du Yong and Lingling and Qingyao, and the remaining two were gifts, and Yang Jin and others drove the car.
Zhao Dezhu came to take the car and looked at Qingyao and Lingling who were more beautiful and beautiful, and envious: "Old Du, you, the cavalry lieutenant of the Ganzhou General Administration, is so chic. If you have a task, do whatever you want. If you don't have a task, play with the beauty."
Qingyao and Lingling both chuckled softly.
Du Yong sneered: "What does it mean to do the task at will? I dare to deal with the things arranged by General Manager Nie?"
Zhao Dezhu sneered: "Don't coax me, I've been asking around these two days. The Ganzhou General Administration is the most free. I heard that your private guards have patrol signs, and your guards can even report things directly to General Manager Nie. The tasks given to you by General Manager Nie have never had any rigid indicators, and they said they wouldn't do it casually?"
Du Yong smiled bitterly: "Who did you hear?"
Zhao Dezhu hummed, "Don't worry about who I've heard, just say if this is the case, right?"
"have!"
Du Yong admitted it happily and explained: "The patrol sign is just convenient for passage and has no special meaning. As for my guards who can report things like General Manager Nie, it is because the situation is tense and the information must be kept smooth."
Zhao Dezhu nodded slightly and said seriously: "No matter what, your treatment is the only one in the Ganzhou General Administration."
Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and asked, "Old Du, why does General Manager Nie value you so much?"
Lingling and Qingyao were also very curious about this issue, and both listened with their ears.
Du Yong smiled and said casually: "I am a member of the Du family!"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Dezhu sneered: "In the eyes of General Manager Nie, what is a mere junior of the Du family? Does General Manager Nie still rely on you as a kid to help?"
Du Yong patted his chest and said shamelessly: "I am not only a member of the Du family, but also a talent. Manager Nie attaches great importance to talents."
After hearing these perfunctory words, Zhao Dezhu knew that he would not ask why, so he had to roll his eyes and not ask again.
After a while of silence, Zhao Dezhu became excited again: "Old Du, I heard from Master Song that people from Dali Temple and Weiwei Temple can enter the palace to meet the saint again."
"oh!"
Du Yong was indifferent and said perfunctorily: "Congratulations, I might be able to win a title."
Zhao Dezhu giggled: "I dare not think about the title. I can just let me enter the arsenal of Shaofu Temple once."
Du Yong laughed out loud: "What do you want?"
Zhao Dezhu said seriously: "You need swordsmanship. I have been integrating various swordsmanship recently and have a lot of insights. Do you want to try it?"
Du Yong pointed at his nose and said with a little disdain: "Do you want to talk to me?"
Seeing this, Zhao Dezhuo was very dissatisfied and shouted, "What's your tone? Am I not qualified to compete with you? I admit that your light skills are really good now, but I have never seen the ability to fight tough battles. But when you first left Guo, I was still one small level away from me. At that time, I engraved the fifth level and the fourth level of the mark, right?"
"That's the old almanac!"
Du Yong smiled and thought to himself that I am now climbing the third level of the tower, and I am even about to reach the fourth level of the tower, which is not comparable to that of your Zhao Dezhu, the slag in the seal engraving realm.
After pausing, Du Yong said again: "Have you never heard of my brilliant achievements in fighting Zhang Pocheng and Di Mo?"
Zhao Dejue smiled and said, "Of course I've heard of it, but don't think I don't know, you're fighting."
Du Yong thought to himself that it would be best if you could think so, and snorted coldly: "If you don't have some hard power, you won't dare to fight."
Seeing Du Yong so arrogant, Zhao Dehu was not angry and asked with a smile: "Then what level are you in now?"
Du Yong patted his chest and said casually: "I am also engraving the fifth level of the seal now, and I will break through soon, otherwise I would not dare to stop Tong Guozhi and Jiang Hanming a few days ago."
Zhao Dezhu looked shocked: "Is it really about to break through?"
Du Yong said lightly: "I feel like I want to break through, but I don't know when it will break through."
Zhao Dezhu was speechless when he heard this, and said lightly: "There are a large number of warriors with fifth-level engraved seals in the capital that they feel like they want to break through all day long. Some people shouted that they have not seen any breakthroughs for several years. How could the bottleneck be so easy to break? Among the younger generation in the capital, only Captain He Muye has reached the level of climbing the tower, but he did not make a breakthrough normally."
He Muye has greatly increased his strength because he became a zombie. After he recovered, the zombie symptoms disappeared, but his strength did not decline. I have to say that he was a blessing in disguise.
Du Yong said, "Are Isn't my elder brother-in-law still there in my generation before the New Year? I remember there was a talent list, and he was on the list."
Zhao Dezhuo smiled and said, "Lianghe has passed the thirty-year-old line, how can he be counted among the younger generation? The reason why he can be on the list was operated by the court because he wants to be strong."
Du Yong laughed and said, "I remember you were on the list too. At that time, I thought you were in operation. You could even make it, which obviously lowered the value of the list. You are not at a high level, nor have you had too outstanding results. The most important thing is that your Zhao family is not famous in the world, and you don't have a stunning family-born skills. When a person in the world analyzes it casually, he will think that you are on the list."
As soon as this statement was made, Zhao Dezhu felt very embarrassed. Compared with the others on the list, he was indeed almost inspiring.
Lingling and Qingyao both covered their mouths and laughed.
Zhao Dezhuo was thick-skinned and embarrassed for a while, then changed the topic: "Have you heard that, the Second Highness is going to get engaged."
"oh?"
Du Yong was so excited that he said, "Which daughter of a family?"
Zhao Dezhu shook his head: "I don't know yet."
Du Yong suddenly wondered: "No, Your Highness has not yet decided, how can the Second Highness run to the front?"
Zhao Dezhu spread his hands.
Du Yong frowned slightly: "What does it mean?"
Zhao Dezhu whispered: "I heard Jiang Buping mention her mouth. The second prince seemed to have fallen in love with the daughter of a certain family, but he couldn't make decisions on this kind of thing, so he wanted to operate it slowly, make mature rice or something."
Du Yong understood a little: "He first made some vague sounds of wind and said he wanted to get engaged, and see the reactions of the palace and the court. If there was no reaction, he could continue to operate. It was a bit exaggerated to make mature rice. He could imply that the daughter of his family was, which was equivalent to occupying the position and preventing others from proposing marriage, so the daughter of that family could only marry the Second Highness in the end."
Zhao Dezhu slapped his thigh: "That's the case."
Du Yong laughed and said, "The girl the second prince likes must be both talented and beautiful, and has a prominent family background, so it is not difficult to guess."
Zhao Dezhu rolled his eyes: "It's not difficult to guess what, you don't have too many conditions in the capital."
Du Yong said: "There are indeed many people with outstanding family backgrounds, but they may not be talented and beautiful, right?"
Lingling said curiously: "Young Master, who are both talented and beautiful?"
Du Yong thought about it and didn't even remember a name, because when he looked at girls, he only looked at their figure and face, and didn't care whether they had talent or not. He didn't even care much about martial arts. He smiled embarrassedly: "Not much anyway."
Zhao Dejue smiled and said, "You don't care if anyone has talent, how can you know if there is more?"
Du Yong chuckled and said, "Then I can't guess. When the Second Highness gets engaged, I'll give him a gift."
Qingyao asked, "Young Master, do you support the Second Highness?"
Du Yong asked back: "Which aspect are you referring to?"
Qingyao smiled and said, "What else can you do to pursue the person you like."
Du Yong nodded: "Since you like it, then go chase it. I admire his courage and give him a thumbs up."
