Chapter 482 Two big fans
Qi Sha frowned slightly, and said coldly: "There is no prince from your Chu Kingdom here, so you don't have to give me such a big gift."
The two generals, Sun Fei and Jia Tong, looked at each other with unconcealable surprise on their faces. If they still looked down on the prince who had been wandering abroad for many years just now, the contempt in their hearts has softened a little, and at the same time, they have a little more intention to explore.
Military Minister Xu Jin was equally astonished.
In his opinion, a person should be pleasantly surprised after suddenly being treated like a prince, and may even be dazzled by such ecstasy.
But the young man in front of him not only was not stunned by this kind of adventure, but also seemed to be quite disapproving of this kind of royal glory.
Xu Jin quickly returned to normal after being stunned.
He respectfully said: "Your Highness is the prince of my Great Chu, and we, as citizens of Great Chu, should salute Your Highness."
Qi Sha remained unmoved in the slightest, and said indifferently: "The letter said, tell me why I was abandoned."
The two generals, Sun Fei and Jia Tong, looked at each other, then frowned and looked at Xu Jin, the servant of the Ministry of War, complaining. His expression clearly read: Xu Jin, how do you do things? How could it be written in the letter that His Royal Highness was abandoned? Has your brain been eaten by a dog?
Xu Jin was ashamed.
How dare he write such "rebellious" words in the letter?
He clearly wrote to tell the reason of his life experience, without mentioning words such as "abandoned".
The so-called "abandonment" is clearly a conclusion drawn by His Royal Highness himself.
Of course, this conclusion is not wrong. His Royal Highness was abandoned by His Majesty back then, but this cannot be said.
Everyone can only act as if they don't know each other, and live in peace with each other. Isn't this a tacit unspoken rule?
However, His Royal Highness is so outspoken that he directly opened his mouth to speak out about such scandals of the royal family.
Xu Jin shook his head silently in his heart, secretly thinking that this kind of prince who has been living among the people all year round and has not received royal orthodox training is of low quality.
But after thinking about it, doesn't this just mean that the prince is incompetent and easy to be controlled?
Xu Jin's abacus was pounding.
His face became more respectful, and he responded calmly: "Your Highness, this old minister dare not respond. The old minister wants to tell His Highness the truth of the year. As for the 'abandonment', it is completely non-existent."
Qi Sha was too lazy to listen to this man's bullshit, and said coldly: "Then tell the reason."
His resignation and focus on the main point made Xu Jin feel quite uncomfortable.
But Sun Fei and Jia Tong thought he was very interesting, and they also didn't like dealing with civil servants.
Originally, the conversation between their generals was usually straightforward, and they quickly explained it clearly. But Wen Chen likes to play games. It's really tiresome to have to talk to you about a simple matter for a long time, and to dig holes for you constantly during the period.
"Back then, when Your Highness was born, it was at the time when Great Chu was at war with the State of Zhou." Xu Jin half-truthfully said, "Your Highness was actually born in a military camp. At that time, when Zhou Guolai came to attack the camp, Great Chu responded in a hurry, and the situation was very chaotic. .”
"The elite soldiers escorting His Highness separated from the main force at that time."
"Over the years, His Majesty has been thinking about His Highness, and ordered people to look for His Highness everywhere."
"Just this year, His Highness and the Fifth Prince met by chance in the territory of Western Turkic. Only then did His Majesty learn of His Highness's movements, so he immediately sent veterans to pick His Highness back to the country."
Qi Sha finished listening to the explanation with a blank face, and said simply and indifferently: "Full of nonsense."
Sun Fei and Jia Tong were stunned, the two men opened their mouths in shock, almost able to stuff a big egg.
To be honest, what Xu Jin said was so impeccable, they thought His Royal Highness would believe it directly. Who would have thought that His Royal Highness would directly refute Xu Jin's words.
Jia Tong slowly closed his mouth that was opened wide in surprise, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly. Hehe, let’s be honest, actually watching His Royal Highness scold Xu Jin, an old fritter, he is in a good mood~
Sun Fei is the same. Great Chu values culture over military affairs, and the status of military officers is generally lower than that of civilian officials. Obviously in terms of rank, he is on an equal footing with Jia Tong and Xu Jin, the ministers of the Ministry of War.
But because of the higher status of the civil servants, this time when he came to Dazhou, Xu Jin regarded himself as an officer everywhere, and his demeanor made him sick to the core.
Now that His Highness the Prince opened his mouth to deny Xu Jin's words, it was equivalent to slapping Xu Jin in the face. Fei felt very happy in his heart.
Just like that, the two generals' affection for His Royal Highness greatly increased without knowing it.
Xu Jin couldn't help being stunned for a moment, the whole person stayed in place, his two small eyes were still wide open, and the two eyeballs were slightly moved to the middle, just like a cross-eyed, it looked very funny.
He is an old man in the officialdom, and everyone always speaks to save face for each other. This is the first time Xu Jin has seen a situation like Qi Sha, which does not give people face and directly pokes others' words.
It's not enough to be embarrassed, after all, his many years of experience as an official have already made his heart much harder than ordinary people.
But it is true that there is a dull face.
But Xu Jin is quite restrained.
Knowing that His Majesty is very concerned about this wandering prince, he explained respectfully with a flattering face: "Everything I said is true, Your Highness, please learn from me."
Qisha tilted his head slightly so that he could better observe the lowered face of the bearded man. He retorted mercilessly: "I didn't get separated accidentally, it was your majesty who abandoned me on purpose."
Sun Fei was dumbfounded again.
Jia Tong's jaw almost fell to the ground.
The two generals couldn't help looking at their companions, their eyes were full of shock and admiration, and they were thinking in their hearts: How can our prince be so calm? How can it be so sharp? ! So clever!
Especially Fei, his heart was shaking.
As far as he is concerned, none of the current princes in Dachu are really good at dealing with them. Most of them look down on generals, and the rest of them quietly look down on generals.
But Sun Fei looked at this His Royal Highness, he should have no problems in this aspect at all, and - His Royal Highness seems to be the same as all their generals, especially dislike these hypocritical civil servants!
This can work!
This is a fellow!
Sun Fei was so happy in his heart, his eyes on Qisha became warm in an instant—how do you feel about it? It was as if he was looking at the master he was about to turn to.
