Chapter 378: The Emperor Gets Angry
Five days later, the Ministry of Officials compound.
The number of people who came to sign up was scattered, and the total number of people was only twenty or thirty.
With this number of people, I am completely sorry for such a big battle made by Lu Hunhou.
And when he saw this, Lu Jia was also a little disappointed.
But he doesn't want to force people to travel, after all, each of them has a great future, and they don't need to follow him on the road they haven't taken.
Standing on the steps, Lu Jia took a deep breath and said directly: "This envoy has a long journey, a dangerous future, and an unknown time. It's too late to quit now! ”
"I ...... I quit! ”
As soon as Lu Jia's words fell, someone retreated.
Six or seven more followed.
They were all frightened by the twelve words of long distance, dangerous future, and unknown time.
And their original intention was to see the benefits of the last mission.
Everyone in the envoy to the Yue clan has been rewarded to a greater or lesser extent, and the time of the envoy is only a few months.
These people basically have the idea of going out for a few months and getting promoted when they come back.
So when they heard Lu Jia's words, they directly dispelled this idea.
Staying in the country, sitting in the official office, living comfortably, isn't he fragrant in front of the official?
The fool is going with you on that long journey, the future is dangerous, the time is unknown, and you don't know the way to live or die.
Seeing someone withdraw, Lu Jia couldn't talk about disappointment, let alone happiness.
Everyone has their own choices, and they don't want anyone to disobey their hearts.
As he said, it's a long way to go......
This mission must be accompanied by loneliness and danger, and fear accompanied by the unknown.
If the people in the mission are unstable, how should the team be brought after this is gone?
Although he wanted to bring a lot of people, if everyone thought about him, Lu Jia would even prefer that he would go on an envoy alone without bringing these people.
Then he said: "On the way out, if there is any intention to retreat, it will be dealt with as a deserter. ”
Lu Jia's words scared away three more people, and now there are only eleven people left.
And looking at these eleven people, Lu Jia couldn't help but sigh again in his heart, too little......
Then, Lu Jia entered a room.
After a while, Zhang Gu was called in.
"As far as Ben Hou knows, you have only been married for three years, your son is only two years old, and you have been out for two years during the internship period, and you only went back to stay overnight when you passed through your hometown. Lu Jia looked at Zhang Gu and asked directly.
"It's not that Xia Guan can't think about it, he just wants to follow what he thinks in his heart, and when he heard that Lu Hun Hou was going to recruit the mission, Xia Guan had a desire in his heart to tell him that he must join the mission. To tell you the truth, the lower official has already sent the letter back! Zhang Gu said half-truthfully, he didn't say that he didn't like the life of confinement.
Perhaps it was the two years of walking around the world that made him gradually have this idea of freedom.
"Do you know that this mission is going to kill people?" Lu Jia continued to ask.
"Yes, but there are some things that always have to be done!" Zhang Gu nodded firmly.
Lu Jia was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you know where this is coming from?" ”
Zhang Gu shook his head, this is just what he thought about temporarily, is there anything else that can't be said?
Or, inadvertently, which classic did my Lao Zhang involve?
"This is a phrase that His Majesty often says, and he calls us the forerunners......" In fact, Lu Jia was already very satisfied with Zhang Gu, his eyes were firm and his ambitions were clear, such a person was very suitable for the mission.
Of course, the most important thing is Zhang Gu's resume in the past two years of internship.
Thirteen counties have been completed in two years, and the accuracy rate of work is more than 90 out of 5.
What does this mean?
No one knows this better than Lu Jia!
"Ben Hou asks you again, this mission, are you not afraid of life and death?" Lu Jia asked again.
"The lower officials are not afraid of life and death!" Zhang Gu replied directly.
"Good! You're now part of the Mission! Lu Jia looked at Zhang Gu with a smile.
The reason why life and death are repeatedly mentioned is that they are worried that there will be problems on the way out.
No matter how much I ask now, there will still be questions when the time comes.
But this can more or less test a person's endurance and perseverance.
Lu Jia hopes that he can leave those uncertainties in Luoyang and not take them on the road with him.
In short, this task is a tight schedule, a heavy task, and no delay.
"You can go home now, if you are in a hurry on the road, you may be able to stay at home for ten days and half a month, if the weather is not beautiful, maybe you can stay at home until the beginning of spring next year! By mid-December at the latest, you have to wait for the mission in Chencang, and you have to grasp the time! Lu Jia said.
"No!" Zhang Gu nodded excitedly.
It worked, it finally worked......
I thought that if I chose to go on an envoy, I would never be able to see my wife and children again, but I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to go home again.
Chen Cang is less than 300 miles north of Chenggu County, and it takes about four or five days to walk.
Of course, Zhang Gu also guessed that the purpose of this mission was to the west, otherwise, why would the mission pass by Chencang?
But none of this mattered, what he cared about most was that he was already a member of the mission.
After confirming, Zhang Gu went directly to the next door to open a certificate.
Without this certificate, it would be difficult for him to return home, and he would be detained directly at the checkpoints along the way.
Similarly, without this certificate, he would not have been able to stay overnight.
Compared with the city, the post station is still more convenient.
Twenty miles and a post, Zhang Gu and the other interns have long been accustomed to staying at the post station, not to mention the convenience, and they don't have to worry about going to a place where there is no store in front of the village and no store.
In the past, if there was no post station, it was basically past noon, probably at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and I would not go forward.
And in the wilderness of these years, it is not safe.
……
The Council Hall.
Zhang Buyi told Wang Buyi about the recruitment of the mission.
The recruitment of the members of the mission, Wang Buxian gave Lu Jia full authority.
Only the person he chooses will be more at ease and more comfortable to use.
And the composition and responsibilities of the personnel, Wang Buxing is not hungry, and Lu Jia provided a detailed list of responsibilities.
According to Lu Jia's plan, the members of the mission needed more than 120 people to travel.
But now, counting the members of the last envoy who are willing to continue to follow the envoy, plus the people recruited today, there are only more than 30 people and less than 40 people.
At this rate of recruitment, if the mission wants to send an envoy, I am afraid it will have to wait for ten days and half a month.
At that time, the weather will also get colder and colder, and the mission will not have to go far before it will have to stop and recuperate.
If you can't rest in Tianshui or Jincheng and wait for the beginning of spring, then there is no need to rush to the embassy now, anyway, it's only a few days away, it is better to let the mission go home and reunite with your family for a winter.
"I heard that someone had signed up, and when I heard that there was a difficulty, I flinched?" Wang Bu asked with a pale face.
"Yes, nine of them left, and a few of them were let go if Lu Hun Hou thought it was inappropriate." Zhang Buyi said.
The few people who were persuaded to retire by Lu Jia were basically a little older.
Wang Bu was hungry for this, and Lu Jia preferred to take those young people in their twenties.
They still have a lot of time in the future, and if the Han Kingdom has to send envoys in the future, they young people can come up.
For this practice, Wang Buxing raised a hundred hands in approval.
However, for those who signed up and retreated, Wang Buxing did not have any good impression of them.
"If you are afraid of difficulties and death, you can not sign up, and you can sign up and quit, where is the majesty of the court? Go and tell the officials, and those who take the initiative to quit will be distributed! The king was not hungry and exclaimed.
What did these people think of the imperial court?
What do you think of merit again?
Regard the mission as the capital for your own promotion?
No problem, Wang is not hungry and does not refuse, but you have to get things done first, right?
If you can think of going to the mission today to make a name for yourself, and in the future, you will dare to mix in other places, if there are more such people, won't the country be in chaos?
The more he thought about it, the more angry he felt.
Again, don't sign up if you're afraid of difficulties, so that everyone won't have an opinion on you.
For these people, Wang Bu is hungry and wants to push them to the end.
But in the end, reason overcame him, and he couldn't get rid of it, so the rumors outside would be different.
So he said: "Send all of them to the south to reclaim the new city, the position is not allowed to be promoted, and there is no need for special treatment in the follow-up, everything is as usual!" ”
