So, Xu Shu took the initiative to not only ask Ma Jian to be his little official, but also bring Deng Ai with him, who was also Xu Shu's subordinate. Kou Yan deeply agreed, although Deng Ai had a wooden personality, he was extremely intelligent, and Kou Yan had always been very optimistic about him. The teacher's willingness to teach is Deng Ai's blessing.

And Xu Shu has two "documents" with him, which can share a lot of things and really be idle, which is also what Kou Yan wants to see.

As the saying goes, there are three fires when a new official takes office. Kou Yan was the first to be the Taishou, and of course the three fires had to be burned. These three fires are to rectify the officialdom and carry out a county-wide rectification campaign, so as to turn the original sneaky and clandestine grasp of corruption into a justifiable and large-scale investigation of corruption, and once discovered, it will be immediately investigated and dealt with, and paraded through the streets to show the public.

Along with the crackdown on corruption, the second fire was restored, and the system of filial piety and honesty was restored, and talented and noble people were elected to serve as officials in the village. The identity information of these people needs to be approved by the higher authorities, and once the practice of nepotism or buying and selling quotas is discovered, it will be investigated and dealt with immediately, and there will be no leniency.

The third fire burned in the water. Changsha County has many water systems, and it is easy to become a country in the flood season. After discussing with the teacher, Kou Yan thought that if he wanted the people to be attached, he had to do something for the benefit of the people, and water control was one of them.

Changsha was originally sparsely populated, so the speed of water control was slow. If you don't spend a lot of effort on centralized rectification in a short period of time, it will be too late. As a result, the campaign to control the water began almost simultaneously with the rectification campaign. Each household dispatched a husband to participate in water control. Even the army was mobilized, about two thousand or so men.

Huang Zhong had no problem with this, and he was now the commander of the Changsha County army. Kou Feng is his subordinate, and all the training and army expansion and selection matters are his final decision, Xu Shu just provides advice, and in the end he has the final say, the old man's life is so moist and full of energy.

Kou Feng was also happy to study under him, and there was no pressure to listen to his commands. Because Xu Shu arrived in Changsha, because Liu Biao had a new investment in Changsha, many people around him felt pressure. The pressure on the Koto side is particularly intense.

Jiangxia in front of him can't be attacked for a long time, and the outbreak of Shanyue in China is just around the corner. Changsha has strong reinforcements here. The spies came to report, Huang Zhong sharpened his knife Huo Huo, looking like he was about to take revenge. Now there is Xu Shu in Changsha with unparalleled wisdom and resourcefulness, and there are Huang Zhong's old trees sprouting and being reused, it is impossible to sneak attack, and it is necessary to prevent sneak attacks.

Tai Shi Ci began to be annoyed by his impulsiveness. However, in view of the fact that the war in Jiangxia was not over, he did not withdraw his troops from Haidu, and still maintained frequent training. However, everyone knows that this is just pretending.

Sure enough, a few days later, Xiangyang issued an official statement that Jiangxia Huangzu had repelled the enemy in Jiangdong and preserved Jiangxia, and Zhou Yu had withdrawn. In order to commend Huang Zu's meritorious service, Liu Biao made a rare commendation in Jingzhou.

When the news arrived in Changsha, Kou Yan was working with his teacher on the issue of reviving official schools in the location of Taishou Mansion. The idea was put forward by Kou Yan. It's really that Changsha's cultural foundation is too poor, and the literary style is not prosperous. The officials who are selected by the guide are generally not high.

However, Xu Shu also has his worries, now is a troubled time, the most important thing is to build a high wall, train elite soldiers, and move the entertainment industry to the back.

Kou Yan felt that what Xu Shu said made sense, and decided to put aside the matter of official learning for the time being. At this time, the guards came in and reported that Ma Tan had asked to see him. Kou Yan smiled: "What does the teacher think of how you do things?" "It still needs to be experienced, and his brother is not bad." ”

"Hehe, the disciple also thinks he is good, that day you often inadvertently offended Liu Cong, Ji Chang (Ma Liangzi) exonerated him, and he was neither humble nor arrogant, calm and atmospheric. It can be seen that the personality is quite good. Kou Yan nodded in agreement with the teacher's opinion.

On the other side, Ma Yan came in, holding a bamboo book in his hand: "Yu Taishou, Changshi, the documents of Xiangyang have arrived, and Jiangdong has withdrawn!" Kou Yan looked at Xu Shu and smiled when he heard this: "Sure enough." Ma Jian put down the bamboo slip and retreated. Kou Yan smiled: "In this way, General Huang can be idle for a while." ”

"Not necessarily, I'm afraid. Kou Yan is optimistic, but Xu Shu is not optimistic. Gong Jin is not a broad-minded person, he suffered a loss in Jiangxia, and it is inevitable that he will not settle this account on our heads. We can't afford to let up!"

"What does the teacher mean is that he will turn the gun and attack us? No wonder Tai Shi Ci has not withdrawn his army for a long time, it turns out that he is waiting for an opportunity to retaliate!" Kou Yan suddenly realized: "It's really a good calculation, the grain and grass, and the soldiers don't need him to consume it, Tai Shi Ci has it, and he can attack it at any time!"

"Yes, Changsha's geographical location is so delicate. Completely exposed to the edge of the Jiangdong Army. The resources that Liu Jingzhou gave you were not given to you in vain. Xu Shu said.

"Since this is the case, then the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth! Zhou Yu suffered a loss at the hands of Huang Zu. If I want to go to Changsha to turn over the book, how can I let him get his wish?" Kou Yan believed that as long as Xu Shu was there, plus Huang Zhong Wei Yan and senior brother Kou Feng, even if Zhou Yu came non-stop, she would not be afraid.

Thinking of this, she smiled strangely, and remembered that day in Liu Biao's mansion. Liu Biao and Cai Mao blew and sang, praising and depreciating. To put it bluntly, they are all using themselves, and by the way, they are also using the teacher and the Jingzhou scholars behind the teacher.

Since we are in a relationship of using each other, there is no reason for me not to live for myself and only work for you. "If everything is as the teacher expected, let's just see what kind of mentality the one in the Xiangyang General's Mansion is. If you find the right way, you will be able to grasp the balance in the future. ”

"Yan'er, if you think of this, you can rest assured as a teacher. You have a bigger picture than your brother. Perfect for the location. Xu Shu was pleased.

"Teacher, don't praise the disciple, the disciple has been feeling guilty until now, letting the teacher succumb to this small Taishou mansion. Kou Yan hurriedly shook his hand. "Yan'er, this Changsha Taishou, do you think you can do it for a long time?" Xu Shu apologized when he saw his disciple again, and had the heart to comfort her, so he said mysteriously.

Kou Yan was stunned for a moment and looked into the teacher's eyes. Suddenly woke up: "The teacher means ......" and "Narrative Tuzhi." Xu Shu slowly spit out four words: "Now, you have become the Taishou of Changsha, countless pairs of eyes are staring at you, whether they are envious or covetous, they will create opportunities for you, push you forward, sail against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat, do you understand?"

"Understood!" Kou Yan stood up and said to Xu Shu sincerely: "There is a teacher by the disciple's side, and the disciple is fearless. Thank you, teacher. "Yan'er, what are you doing here? Why do you and my master and apprentice come to such a lot of politeness, if you do this again, you will be angry for the teacher." Xu Shu pretended to be disgusted and said: "You have to remember, out of this door, you are the Lord Taishou, and I am your long history." ”

――――――――――――――'s a bit overkill, so let's make do with it like this!
