Chapter 88: The Law, the Executioner, and the Ruler (2)
The plaque in the lobby has four big characters on it, and the mirror hangs high.
There is a bronze mirror hanging in front of him, which is brilliant, and when Li Xian looks up, he can clearly see his cheeks, no worse than a modern glass mirror.
The reason he came here was because of another envelope that Zhang Zheng had left for him.
The letter is divided into two pages, the first page asks him to come to the Mirror Division of the Party and the Masses to find Lu Guangxin, and the second page is called a letter of recommendation.
If you want to be an official in Dajin, the easiest way to do it used to be to obey the probation system.
The so-called probation system refers to a system in which local governors inspect their areas at any time in their jurisdiction, elect talents, recommend them to their superiors or the central government, and appoint officials to official posts after a probationary examination.
Attention!
There are drawbacks to this system, and there are certainly standards for the talents recommended by local governors, such as talent, morality, etc., but this standard cannot be quantified, and the non-quantifiable means that they can be openly and honestly cheated.
The governor will recommend his relatives or bribe-givers.
Since the accession of Emperor Ji Mingwu of the Great Jin Dynasty, this system has been abolished, and then the system of imperial examinations has been implemented.
But the way of being an official is to pay attention to a person's sophistication, except for officials who really don't have any oil and salt, if there are really high-ranking officials who recommend their children and nephews, or unimportant oil and water positions, most of them will tacitly let go of the water.
That's right!
Although Li Xian didn't know what position his master belonged to in the cavalry unit of the Netherworld Iron Cavalry, he wrote a letter of recommendation to Li Xian with his master's ability and integrity, which was enough to prove that he valued Li Xian.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand the master's thoughts, when they met for the first time, Zhang Zheng thought that Li Xian was a fierce general on the battlefield. After fighting twice in person, he knew better than anyone else about the strength of his apprentice.
So since you have the ability to protect yourself, why do you have to stay in the small place of Wujun obediently.
A manly man should make meritorious contributions, kill all enemies, and make a name for himself.
Like him, he became famous at a young age and still chose to join the army.
He believed that Li Xian was an ambitious man...... This letter of recommendation was his farewell gift to his apprentices.
......
Everywhere I walked was an official in a pig's robe, and there were many vigorous warriors carrying a package, faintly bloody breath coming out, and walked straight to the other side of the corridor.
All the way to the inner hall.
"Strong man, please sit down ......" The catcher who led the way poured a glass of water for Li Xian, "Strong man, please wait for a while, the adults are busy with official business and can't take a break for the time being......"
"Good...... It's hard work, big brother. Li Xian stuffed a tael of silver without leaving a trace for the catch.
Not hard...... It's not hard. Suddenly, something was stuffed in his hand, and he was stunned for a moment, and soon went down with a smile.
Li Xian was not in a hurry, he sat on the chair with his eyes closed and recuperated, and Xinhu could feel a few eyes staring at him.
About half an hour passed.
Zhang Zheng actually accepted an apprentice...... I'd like to see what kind of apprentice that crazy man who is obsessed with martial arts has adopted. ”
A majestic voice came in, and a man nearly eight feet tall, broad-shouldered, long-legged, sturdy and burly, dressed in a scarlet official uniform, walked in.
Li Xian hurriedly stood up.
At first glance, I recalled the man's information in my head.
Lu Guangxin, the Taishou of Shangdang County, the number one military and political leader, is also the actual controller of the four parts of the Fenglin Volcano. ’
In fact, when Li Xian first saw the contents of the second letter, he didn't know what the master asked him to do with Lu Guangxin? Who was Lu Guangxin? But when he arrived in Shangdang County, he understood!
Unexpectedly, the master's letter of recommendation was directly addressed to the Taishou of Shangdang County.
Meet Taishou-sama. Li Xian bowed respectfully.
Lu Guangxin stood still in front of Li Xian, looked up and down, and said hello a few times.
"You're Li Xian, right? Sure enough...... is worthy of Zhang Zheng's apprentice, and it is no wonder that with his elm head, he will write a letter of recommendation to me, and it is indeed a good material for the battlefield. Lu Guangxin clapped his hands, and soon a few strong sergeants served a few stir-fried vegetables, as well as a large pot of meat.
"If you haven't eaten, sit down and eat together. Lu Guangxin took his chopsticks and pointed across the table.
"Xie Taishou. ”
Li Xian is also not polite, since the master and Lu Guangxin have an old relationship, and the other party does not treat him as an outsider, it is not good for his mother-in-law and mother-in-law. Besides, after waiting for half an hour, it was almost noon.
After sitting down, a man dressed in black walked over and handed Li Xian a rice bowl and a pair of chopsticks.
Li Xian thanked him.
"Where are you from?" Lu Guangxin took a bite of food and asked at the same time.
"Back to Lu Taishou's words, he is from Wanxi Village. ”
There is no need to hide here, Li Xian is very honest.
"Wanxi Village?" Lu Guangxin pondered these words and said with a smile: "It turns out that you and Zhang are from the same village!"
Lu Guangxin's chopsticks pointed to the big pot of meat and said:
"Try this. ”
Li Xian nodded, not polite, the chopsticks sandwiched a piece of white, tender and fatty meat in it, put it in the bowl and put it in his mouth.
A very docile blood qi emanated from the flesh, circulating the limbs and hundreds of remains.
"Is it delicious?" Lu Guangxin asked.
"Sweet in the sour. ”
Lu Guangxin put his chopsticks into the basin, took out a piece of white and tender fish, and said at the same time: "This is a fish called Wen Ray, which is a great tonic for eating and can also cure diseases." ”
So
Is this a pot of fish?
Li Xian really didn't see from his appearance that he was eating fish and meat just now, it can be said that since he crossed over, the initial diet was coarse tea and light rice, and after learning to hunt, the meat was either roasted or boiled and stewed, and he actually didn't really enjoy the food customs of this world.
The best he has ever eaten are the jelly-like pieces of meat left by Wuyushan and the home-cooked side dishes that Gai Haonan took him to Tongfu Restaurant to eat.
Soon, a pot of fish and a few stir-fried vegetables were quickly wiped out by the two.
Lu Guangxin picked up the cup next to him, and he didn't know whether it was tea or wine, so he took a sip and said:
"Have you eaten enough?"
Back to Lu Taishou...... Eaten. ”
This is really not polite, whether it is vegetables or meat, it contains rich blood and energy, and it is very full.
"How is your master doing, is he still in Wanxi Village?"
Master has returned to the army...... It's because his left arm was cursed by the barbarian sacrifice that he couldn't recover for a long time, but everything else was fine. ”
When Li Xian said this, there was a wisp of evil in Lu Guangxin's eyes.
And so ...... Your master said in the letter that you should go to the Shanzi Camp to be a chief first, do you have any opinions?"
‘...... What can I say?'
I think that's good...... Step by step from the beginning. ”
"Very good......
Do it well, do it well, let me see how far Zhang Zheng, the apprentice of a martial madman, can go. Lu Guangxin finally said a little mysteriously. "It's a good time......"
Li Xian was stunned for a moment, and then he understood it in a turn of his mind.
Just like what happened at the execution ground yesterday, the martial artists of the One Realm came out to kill chickens and monkeys, and as the supreme man of the Great Jin Empire, he left his palace and patrolled his own territory.
So......
There will inevitably be some indications under the hands, such as cleaning up terrorists, uneasiness factors, and a quick solution.
Then it can be concluded that there must have been military activities recently, and it happens that the Shanzi battalion where he is located has participated, otherwise there is no need for Lu Guangxin to mention him this sentence in a special and subtle way.
Li Xian immediately arched his hand and said, "Xian, I will seize the opportunity." ”
"Hahahaha, I like to talk to smart people......"
Lu Guangxin said with a smile.
People are different, some people can immediately set goals from a little information, and from then on grasp the opportunity, life towards the light, and some people, even if God goes down to talk to him, he will not enter. Fate parted ways.
Therefore, in this world, there are really some people who deserve to come out, and not everyone can have this sensitivity.
If your master had your cleverness, he wouldn't have had to take so many detours. Lu Guangxin shook his head and said helplessly.
"Thin ...... in the Lord"
Step –
A middle-aged man of medium stature and elegant appearance walked in and arched his hand, "Lord Taishou." ”
"Li Xian, Yu Hai, Yu Zhu Bo ......"
I have seen Yu Zhubo. ”
I still have official business to attend to, and I will arrange everything in the Lord's Book. Lu Guangxin patted Li Xian on the shoulder, took out a small bottle from his arms and handed it to Li Xian. It is very useful to treat internal injuries, and I hope to see you differently next time. ”
After speaking, he walked straight out of the inner hall.
Li Xian was stunned, and quickly thanked him: "Lord Xie Taishou." ”
Yu Zhubo, who was silently watching this scene from the side, his mind turned quickly. stepped forward and said very familiarly: "Brother Li, this is really the dragon and phoenix among people, Lord Taishou values you very much......"
"The matter, Lord Taishou has already explained it to me, Brother Li, rest assured, leave all this to my brother, and my brother will help you do it." ”
Li Xian hugged his fists and thanked: "It's hard work for the master." ”
"Hey, you're polite, you're polite, I fell in love with Brother Li as soon as we met......" Lord Yu said with a thin smile. In this way, I am a few years older than you, if you don't mind calling Brother Yu. ”
"Brother Yu ......"
Hahaha...... Good, good, good. ”
The two walked all the way out of the Spiegel Division.
Brother Li, brother won't send you...... See you tomorrow. ”
"I'm sorry for the big brother......"
Seeing Yu Zhubo walk back, Li Xian let out a long sigh of relief and touched the bottle in his arms.
It's all human spirits. ’
Remembering the last words Lu Guangxin said to him, a smile broke into the corners of his mouth, and he walked towards the inn where he lived.
Although there is a letter of recommendation and favor from the master, how can there be a free lunch in this world, Lu Guangxin's last sentence is obvious, since you see the opportunity, if you can't climb up...... You don't have to come to see me again.
In this way, both the master and he owe Lu Guangxin a favor.
But no matter what, now he has finally begun to step into the military and political system of the Great Jin, even if it is only a small chief.
As the most powerful country in the world, its influence has touched every corner of the world, even if the power belongs to itself, there are still laws to bind the warriors.
Since this is the case, it is better to climb up with the help of the big tree in the sky and take a good look at everything in the 40,000-li territory of the Great Jin Dynasty.
The tall figure quickly disappeared around the corner.
......
......
Night.
Taishou House.
Den.
Lu Guangxin was working on official documents on the table, and as the number one military and political leader, he had to deal with more things every day than anyone could imagine.
"Gujingshan sent someone to see it today...... Nothing was found, no corpse remains, no swamps of blood, nothing ......" The figure of the person who spoke was hidden in the darkness where the candle flame could not illuminate it, and his face was wearing a dark iron mask, and he could not see clearly, only the pair of eyes like blades were exposed.
Lu Guangxin didn't raise his head:
The matter reported by the kite, there should be no falsehood, send someone to investigate. ”
"Hmmm......"
After a while,
That madman Zhang Zheng actually has an apprentice, and he even wrote a letter asking the apprentice to come to you? The masked man said indifferently.
Hah-
Lu Guangxin finally raised his head and looked at the figure in the shadows:
Don't you say it...... Li Xian is not a simple person...... Very smart and strong. ”
The army is already respected for strength, and this kid will soon come out. ”
Lu Guangxin remembered that when he saw Li Xian for the first time, he could clearly feel the extremely vigorous qi and blood in the other party's body, and he did not hide it, it can be said that he told him unscrupulously, I am not weak!
It is not difficult to see that Li Xian suffered serious internal injuries, anyway, since he wants to help, he will simply help to the end.
As the head of the 700,000 Netherworld Iron Cavalry, why didn't Zhang Zheng bring Li Xian into the Netherworld Iron Cavalry, wouldn't it rise faster. ”
Hearing this, Lu Guangxin glanced at the masked man with disgust.
"No wonder, you are the highest to sit at the head of the well......"
"You !!!"
Hahahaha...... Are you kidding?" Lu Guangxin hurriedly spoke.
ay
I didn't know what to think, and suddenly sighed.
Zhang Zheng put it bluntly, he is just a head of the sect, and the Netherworld Iron Rider is the Jiang family...... Are you pretending to be confused about this?"
The Youzhou army is in the hands of Wang Fu, Zhang Zheng is not familiar with him, but he has an old relationship with me, so this time he simply sold me a favor and sent his apprentice here. ”
Now...... The saint patrols and hunts, and says on the surface to look at this great Jin, but on the inside...... Who knows, the barbarian side has not made big moves in recent decades, and small moves have continued, and in this case, Youzhou has raised a full 1.7 million troops, which costs too much silver......
Therefore, the civil officials under Zhao Changsu have been suppressing our Youzhou, hoping that the military and the government will be separated...... Reduce the number of troops.
It's been a long time......"
When the masked man heard this, his mouth under the mask opened, and he sighed after Lu Guangxin: "I don't know if I can exterminate the barbarians in this life." ”
Lu Guangxin said:
It's hard to ...... When Wang Fu first took office, he was able to exterminate several barbarian tribes with the cooperation of Si Tianjian. But now, except for the approaching winter every year, the endless grassland cannot meet a barbarian tribe for a hundred miles......
"I don't know where to hide in to recuperate. ”
The Mask Man:
"It's impossible to shrink back with the nature of a barbarian, you must hide and plan something......"
Haha –
Lu Guangxin said with a smile: "If that's the case, even if we are suppressed, we can wipe out that group of miscellaneous pieces......
The wind in the Northland,
The words faded away with the wind.
The candles in the study were lit until dawn.
