- Assassin's House

"That's the case, Xia Guan speculates that the place where the plague broke out first should have been wiped out by the whole village, and the most powerful outbreak of the plague this time is Guangyang County, so this village must be in Guangyang County, please order the counties to visit all the villages, especially those where the hidden households may be, they must be able to find something."

Guo Xun listened to Ma Qiang's words, first praised Ma Qiang a few words, and then said to Guo Yuan on the side, "You go to arrange this matter, you go down first." ”

Waiting for Guo Yuan to go down, Guo Xun said with a smile, "Ma County Order, you really didn't disappoint me, I read the official documents from all over the country, and they all said that the epidemic prevention regulations you wrote are extremely effective, it seems that more than ten people have woken up from the coma yesterday, and when this happens, the court will definitely reward you heavily, Ma County Order, how old are you this year?" The future is limitless! ”

What do these mean? Ma Qiang has never been an official, and he really doesn't understand the twists and turns in the officialdom.

"The king has a good reputation, and this is all about making the king lead well."

It should be right to deal with the words of the afterlife.

"Sun Changshou has sent a letter, he is very interested in you, and someone in his family has also been infected with the plague, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid they would all be dead now, what do you think?"

This Sun Zhang doesn't want to accept himself as a younger brother, right?

"Xia Guan doesn't understand."

"Do you know Hongdumenxue? Sun Changshou knows that you are still young, and hopes that you will go to Hongdumen to learn to study, and promises that after reading, you will be at least one Langzhong, and you can be the prefect and Ma County Order, this is an excellent opportunity, you should grasp it. ”

To be honest, Guo Xun was almost jealous when he saw this letter.

The highest institution of learning in the Eastern Han Dynasty is Taixue, but Taixue has long been in the hands of the Eastern Han Dynasty emperors who died early in the past dynasties from the extension of imperial power to the tools of the family, after Liu Hong's reign, on the one hand, it is for his own spiritual needs, on the other hand, the eunuchs need to have their own people, so a new supreme institution was established, that is, Hongdu Gate School.

Hongdumen School is more like an art school from the perspective of later generations, teaching mostly calligraphy, painting and other things, but in fact, the students of this school are the same Eastern Han Dynasty officials reserve army as Taixue, and because this school is presided over by Liu Hong and the eunuchs, most of the people who come out of here are regarded by the world as eunuchs.

Building a school by himself, being the principal, and cultivating the team are not just things that Chang Shenkai will do in later generations.

Going to Luoyang? Can you still catch up with the Yellow Turban Rebellion?

If you don't sit in Youzhou, I'm afraid that a year later, the Yellow Turban will raise troops, and your family will be swallowed by Cheng Zhiyuan's people, don't say any nonsense that Youzhou officials and soldiers will come to protect their families, and the Youzhou assassin in front of him will be a life of people at that time.

"In the next mountain and no villager, how can He De enter the Hongdu Gate? Sun Changshou treated him so kindly, please forgive the boy for being rude and refused, and when this incident is over, the boy will resign and return to his hometown, do some business, buy some farmhouses, teach and educate people, marry a wife and have children, this life is enough. ”

Guo Xun's face immediately fell, he slowly put the letter on his desk, then sat back in his place, and said coldly, "Ma Qiang, do you understand what you are talking about?" Do you know what you're rejecting? ”

"The kid understands, the kid is a casual man, and he doesn't want to bother with the case, so that if there is nothing else, the kid will retire."

Ma Qiang doesn't even claim to be lowly anymore, and he makes it clear that he won't play with you when this matter is over, and Ma Qiang also believes that as long as Guo Xun still has some brains, he won't dare to move himself.

Move a Daxian who saved the entire Youzhou, crazy?

Watching Ma Qiang's departure, Guo Xun's mood was extremely complicated, on the one hand, he actually didn't want Ma Qiang to be valued by Sun Zhang, Ma Qiang's true facts were making him unpredictable, he always felt that if Ma Qiang was allowed to go to Luoyang, and when we met again, it was not certain who was on top and who was below, but at this time, Ma Qiang refused to solicit so easily, Guo Xun felt as disgusting as eating a fly.

Is it so shameful to be a eunuch with yourself? Your Maocai is still given to you by me, you really don't want to be a son!

How do you tell Sun Changshou about this...

What's more critical is that in this era, it is the norm to refuse the imperial court to solicit anything, and the imperial court is used to it.

The more you refuse, the more I have to recruit you, one to express my own nobility, and the other to express my thirst for talent.

Both sides are very happy, but Guo Xun is the most unhappy if he really wants to persuade people.

The more I think about it, the more angry I become, not a son of man!

Guo Xun thought about it and simply smashed everything on the table, which made him feel more comfortable.

"Report! Envoy, Cheng Xianshi called the door outside the city, saying that he hoped to enter the city to pray for the plague. ”

"Cheng Zhiyuan?"

Guo Xun's eyes rolled, this plague was spread by Taiping Dao, and it was already something he had identified, what kind of card is Taiping Dao going to play now?

"I know, isn't Ma Xian Ling here, how did he do it?"

"Ma County's order let him into the city."

"Got into town? Okay, I got it. ”

Guo Xun thought about it, but he still didn't understand what was going on, and he didn't dare to leave the house, so he only sent a message to Guo Yuan, asking him to send someone to spy on him.

——Jixian County

"Ah, I said Cheng Immortal Master, I heard you right, if this black plague is not eliminated for a day, you will not eat for a day?" Ma Qiang leaned at his waist and looked at Cheng Zhiyuan with admiration and said, "In other words, after a long time, this plague is not the credit of our doctors, officials, and people who are forced to isolate and can't go out every day, but yours?" ”

"The plague is a natural disaster, this is the wrath of the sky, and the poor road is just trying to do its part, I heard that the Ma County Order said to everyone before that everyone is victorious, you should know that there is a sentence in the back." Cheng Zhiyuan said while directing a group of Taiping Taoist priests to build a prayer platform.

Of course, Ma Qiang knows that the latter sentence is about the destiny of heaven sometimes bad people.

This is also the theoretical embodiment of the induction of heaven and man.

"Cheng Zhiyuan, whether this black plague is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, you and I both know very well in our hearts, since you tell me about the sky, I will tell you, there is a saying that people are doing it, and the sky is watching! A wicked man is his own hell! Since you want to pray for blessings, I will also make an exception to allow you to enter Jixian County, but if you dare to do anything again, I, Ma Qiang, will also dare to kill.... Let's go! ”

Ma Qiang did not refuse Cheng Zhiyuan's prayers, firstly, he did not want to contradict Taiping Dao at such a time, during the plague, stability is extremely important, and secondly, he also wanted to know that Taiping Dao had not moved, and now it was suddenly like this.

"Sir, someone from the family has come, saying that there are Taiping Dao figures in various places, they are saving people in epidemic areas in various places, and even giving alms of water and medicinal materials..."Yue Yang suddenly ran over to report to Ma Qiang.

"This is a robbery!" Ma Qiang looked at Cheng Zhiyuan, who was already preparing to meditate, and understood.

At any given time, it's better to do more than to shout.

This Cheng Zhiyuan actually has such a brain... Ma Qiang felt that he might have underestimated him.
