When Xie Yuchuan heard that those competing with him for the position of deputy commander were all idle young men from powerful families who only knew how to visit red-light districts, he felt that he had a sure win.
Not long after.
Seeing that the group was unable to decide the winner, General Gongming suggested that they have a competition and the winner would be the deputy commander.
Although Xie Yuchuan was somewhat of a dandy, he had fought on the battlefield with real guns and swords after all. He was no match for these idle young masters, and he did not take these young masters seriously.
Even other people thought that Xie Yuchuan could stand out in the competition.
Before he even went on stage, a bunch of people came over to congratulate him: "My Lord, I believe you will be the deputy commander this time. Congratulations, my Lord."
"My Lord, you are so noble and imposing. The position of deputy commander is rightfully yours."
"When we return victorious, haha, we will surely bring glory to the capital!"
Xie Yuchuan bowed politely to everyone and said modestly:
"I can't be arrogant because I haven't even stepped on the stage yet and the outcome hasn't been decided yet."
"Others should not be underestimated either. It's too early to congratulate them now."
Everyone is a smart person, how could they not hear that this is Xie Yuchuan's modesty?
If you really follow what Xie Yuchuan says, you are a fool.
Everyone was praising Xie Yuchuan one after another. Some praised him for his noble bearing and demeanor of a great general, and some praised him for his bravery. All kinds of compliments came out of their mouths.
Hearing the smug look on Xie Yuchuan's face, he couldn't help but smile.
The depression and decadence during this period were blown away by the praises from everyone.
When he looked up, Xie Yuchuan caught a glimpse of Qin Zihong walking towards him from a distance.
Qin Zihong was wearing silver armor and holding a spear in his hand. His shoulders were a little thin, and he looked without any dignity, just like a young master.
After Xie Yuchuan walked over, everyone's attention also turned over.
Why is he here?
He is not...Oh, I remember now.
Qin Zihong got into some trouble some time ago, and it almost got to the point where the emperor came before him. Fortunately, it was resolved in the end.
Qin's father was very disappointed with him since then. He thought he was not suitable to be a civil servant, so he forced him to join the army, saying that he wanted Qin Zihong to taste the hardships and know his place.
Don’t let the Qin family’s legacy be destroyed.
Xie Yuchuan looked at Qin Zihong and said, "Zihong, why are you here too? Swords and knives are merciless on this battlefield. Your father-in-law only wants you to gain experience. You can't possibly compete with me for this position, right?"
"Why not?!" Qin Zihong sneered, "Everyone knows that following General Gongming is to seek credit, and you don't have to risk your life. Just look at what you can do."
"Maybe I'll beat you then."
His sister has already told him everything.
Instead of giving the benefits to a son-in-law, it is better to give them to your own family.
What's more, with the invincible General Gongming around, the deputy generals and the like are just there to gain experience points.
After hearing this, Xie Yuchuan was not angry, but laughed out loud.
"Hahahaha, good, it's good for young people to have ambitions."
The people around him also laughed, laughing at Qin Zihong for being so arrogant despite being a small man.
On the street, Chen Wei and the people from the martial arts school were distributing porridge.
Chen Wei was stunned when he received the document of commendation from the government.
She never thought that the government would specially send officials to commend her for providing porridge to the victims, and the meaning revealed in her words surprised Chen Wei even more.
With this commendation order from the government, no force will be able to easily frame Chen Wei and others in the future, and their reputation will be even more upright.
This commendation order is the golden signboard of the martial arts school and the longevity cake shop, and its existence is recognized by the government.
