He wanted to greet General Li personally. Even if General Li was not his superior, he had to greet the Heavenly Thunder.
He ran all the way and finally arrived at the city gate.
At this time, the city gate had been opened.
Seeing the neat and strict team, Jin Sheng hurried forward.
"General, I'm late. Please forgive me."
He cupped his hands and looked at Li Jing with admiration in his eyes.
Li Jing looked indifferent. In fact, he had a good impression of this subordinate. After all, he guarded a place and worked hard even if he did not contribute. So he said, "Get up and follow me into the city."
After that, he squeezed the horse's belly and slowly walked into the city.
The soldiers followed closely behind, raising a cloud of dust. The big banner swayed in the wind, looking solemn and solemn.
Seeing that most of the people had entered, Jin Sheng casually gave a few orders at the door and quickly followed.
As soon as they entered the city, Jin Sheng called Wu Pu, "Serve the general tea immediately. Go personally."
Wu Pu also knew Li Jing's status and did not dare to neglect. He accepted the order and left.
At this time, Li Jing had already entered the inner mansion. He was familiar with this place. After all, he had been here before.
The inner mansion was where Jin Sheng usually entertained guests. Normally, Jin Sheng should sit in the main seat. However, since Li Jing was here today, his superior naturally sat in the main seat and Jin Sheng sat on the side.
The two sat upright. Before they spoke, Wu Pu came in with tea. He walked to Li Jing and carefully served a cup of tea.
"General, please have the tea."
Li Jing narrowed his eyes and glanced at Wu Pu. He seemed to have thought of something and asked in surprise, "You're the archer from before?"
He vaguely remembered this person's figure in his mind. He seemed to be an archer, but he was not sure.
Wu Pu was delighted. He did not expect that a small guard like him would be remembered by the general. He quickly said, "Yes, general. It's me."
"Hmm …"
Li Jing glanced at Wu Pu, but this time he valued him more, "Good. Since you're in Sheng Zhou, assist Jin Sheng well. You won't have followed me in vain."
Wu Pu did not dare to say anything. It was the greatest grace to be valued by the general. He nodded repeatedly. Seeing that the general did not say anything more, he could only serve another cup of tea to Jin Sheng and left in a hurry.
Only Li Jing and Jin Sheng were left in the entire inner mansion. The atmosphere was solemn.
Li Jing was about to ask about Zhang Feng when Jin Sheng spoke first. He suddenly stepped forward and half-knelt on the ground. He said excitedly, "Thank you, General, for sending down the heavenly lightning …"
"Wait …"
Li Jing hurriedly interrupted. He was a little confused. What did he mean by sending down the heavenly lightning? Was he really that capable? Confused, he could only ask, "What did you mean by that? What lightning? "
"You don't know?"
Jin Sheng was stunned because he had always thought that this was the general's doing. Now, the general didn't know? Was it not the general's doing?
Impossible?
Other than the general, who else could summon the Heavenly Lightning?
It must be because the general was afraid that his achievements would shock the emperor, so he didn't say anything.
Yes, that must be it.
Therefore, he cupped his hands and continued, "General, last night, heavenly lightning struck down and killed the Turks who were stationed outside Sheng Zhou City. It also caused a big fire and countless casualties …"
"What?"
Li Jing's eyes widened as he slammed the table and stood up. Oh my god, what kind of explosive news is this?
Heavenly Thunder Descending? And even caused a huge fire? Countless Turks were killed?
How could this be?
How could such a thing happen?
He instantly felt that his brain was not enough.
Frowning, he paced in the hall with his hands behind his back.
If these were true, it would undoubtedly be a great thing for the Tang Dynasty.
But, this matter was a little strange.
Why would there be heavenly lightning?
And it happened to fall in the Turks' camp?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He stopped and stared at Jin Sheng. "Tell me, are you deliberately trying to take credit? Are you trying to deceive Lao Tzu? What hasn't Lao Tzu seen before? What kind of heavenly lightning is there? "
He hadn't cursed for many years. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he had been generous to others. Today, what this guy said was so unbelievable that he couldn't help but curse.
However, this made Jin Sheng suffer.
He had always thought that the heavenly lightning was the general's doing, but now it seemed that it was not at all.
Not only was it not, but he was also scolded when he reported it truthfully. Damn it, there was no way to reason with him.
However, he was the general, and he couldn't scold him back.
Therefore, he continued to be patient and said, "General, what I said is true. Last night, heavenly lightning indeed struck down. Not only did it kill a large number of Turks, but Xieli and the Turks also brought the tribes back to the grassland overnight. I am willing to use my head as a guarantee for what I said."
He really had no other way. If the general didn't believe him, he could only use his head to prove his sincerity.
Li Jing was certainly not a fool. Seeing this guy's solemn vow, his confidence began to waver.
He knew in his heart that Jin Sheng was a steady person and would not deceive him for such a trivial matter.
