Chapter 7 Searching for Good Talent
"What a headache."
Qin Hua has served as the county guard of Jincheng for more than half a year, and now he rarely goes to the military camp, but mainly stays in the county guard's mansion.
With his little knowledge reserve, he had already spent it when he was governing Jincheng County, and in the face of the constant government affairs, Qin Hua now felt a headache.
Qin Hua now finally realized why most of those emperors in ancient times were short-lived, and a county had such a large workload, if it was the whole country, how many things would there be.
"It's time to find talent."
Putting down the brush in his hand heavily, Qin Hua made this decision.
It's just that Liangzhou doesn't seem to have any talents in Qin Hua's impression, for example, Li Ru and others have already joined Dong Zhuo's command, and Ma Teng's command seems to be only some brave and unscrupulous generals, and I haven't heard of any outstanding strategists.
Suddenly, Qin Hua had a flash of inspiration, isn't there still Jia Xu in Liangzhou, he shouldn't have joined Dong Zhuo's command now.
Although this Three Kingdoms poisoner does not appear much, he has always been admired.
The first appearance of Jia Xu in history was when Dong Zhuo was killed, and Jia Xu offered Li Dao and Guo Yan to counterattack Chang'an. This move directly caused the disappearance of the imperial authority, and opened the subsequent struggle for hegemony among the princes.
"Jia Xu seems to be from Wuwei County, Liangzhou, I don't know if he is still in Wuwei County."
As the head snake of Wuwei County, Qin Hua immediately used the Qin family's forces to start looking for Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe.
In addition to knowing the name, Qin Hua knew very little about Jia Xu, but just by virtue of his name, Qin Yue still helped Qin Hua find Jia Xu.
"Jia Xu, Jia Wenhe. A native of Zanggu County, Wuwei County. ”
Qin Yue began to report to Qin Hua the information that she had found that person.
"Jia Xu was valued by the famous scholar Yan Zhong when he was a teenager, thinking that he had the wisdom of Zhang Liang and Chen Ping. After that, he was promoted to filial piety, but resigned due to illness. Legend has it that when he returned to his hometown in the west and arrived in Wangdi, he met the rebellious Di people on the way, and was captured by the Di people along with dozens of other people. Jia Xu said: I am the grandson of Duan Gong, don't hurt me, my family must be ransomed with a lot of money. The rebel did not dare to harm him, and sent him back after making an oath with him, while the rest were killed. ”
"Who is Duan Gong?"
Qin Hua was a little puzzled, he had only seen the Three Kingdoms, and he didn't seem to have heard of any Duan Gong.
Qin Yue knew that Qin Hua's youth was not good at studying, so she immediately explained: "Duan Gong's name is Duan Ying, and he was a Tai Lieutenant in front of him. ”
"Okay, looks like this guy is the one I'm looking for."
After determining Jia Xu's location, Qin Hua immediately got up and went to Wuwei County, he wanted to personally come to the door to invite Jia Xu out of the mountain.
Qin Hua, accompanied by Zhang Liao and dozens of personal soldiers, hurried on horseback, and arrived at Wuwei in one day and one night.
"Did you go back to the Qin Mansion to meet the master first?"
When he came to Wuwei City, Qin Yue, who was accompanying him, immediately stepped forward and said.
"No, find Jia Xu first."
As he spoke, he asked Qin Yue to show the way and rushed to Jia Xu's residence.
The fast horse galloped all the way and finally came to the vicinity of a small village.
"My lord, Mr. Jia Xu is in this village."
Qin Hua was thirsty for talent, so he brought dozens of people under his command and hurriedly entered the village, only to find that the door of Jia Xu's house was closed, and after asking the neighbors, he knew that Jia Xu had already gone to the empty house.
The man said that Jia Xu had been gone all day, but Qin Hua noticed that the man's words flickered, as if he had hidden something.
Under Qin Hua's loud questioning, this person finally told the truth, Jia Xu left for less than an hour, and it was he who explained that if someone asked, it would be that he had been away for a whole day.
At this time, Qin Hua suddenly remembered that he had met a traveler on the way here, who was dressed ordinarily and carrying a backpack, but after seeing Qin Hua and the others, he stopped walking, and instead turned around to look for something in the grass on the side of the road.
"Could it be him?"
Judging from the footsteps of a person, it seems that an hour should not have walked only this little way.
"Let's go."
Qin Hua gave a loud order, and the group immediately got on the horse and followed behind Qin Hua.
Returning along the same path, Qin Hua saw the person's location before, but Qin Hua found no trace of the person.
"Am I wrong?"
Qin Hua asked people to go back and forth and then look for it, while he sat under a big tree to rest.
"Could it be that Jia Xu has already discovered his intentions, doesn't he want to listen to it under my account?"
Suddenly, Qin Hua remembered that when Jia Xu first appeared, he was just a sword and pen official under Dong Zhuo, and his talent should not be limited to this, could it be that this person has no intention of pursuing a career, so he is clumsy?
Pouring a sip of water fiercely, Qin Hua was extremely unwilling in his heart, there was a top talent right under his nose, and he couldn't find him.
Qin Hua secretly swore that if he found Jia Xu, he would tie him back even if he used the tie-up.
Suddenly, a guard came to report that he had caught a suspicious guy in the grass not far away.
Two guards brought the man over, this was a civilian in a coarse linen robe, and it seemed that the clothes were not what Qin Hua had seen before.
The man was in his thirties, with pale skin and a goatee, and looked a little cringe.
If it was just a look, this person should not be the Jia Xu that Qin Hua was looking for, but Qin Hua noticed that this person's skin didn't seem to be as dark as an ordinary peasant.
"Your Excellency is the grandson of Taiwei Duan Ying?"
Qin Hua's tentative words made this person stunned for a moment, and then he quickly reacted and pretended to be cowering again.
"The villain is just a civilian passing by, and please raise your noble hand."
Although it was only for a moment, Qin Hua noticed the change in his expression, and immediately reacted that this person was not simple.
"If there is war all over the place today, and the people are struggling to make a living, my husband is talented, please help me."
Qin Hua didn't go around in circles with him, and bowed down directly.
In order to avoid Qin Hua, the guards on both sides took the initiative to let go and take a step back.
The man who had no support did not fall, but was stunned, he knew that his identity was still seen through, it seems that this person is not simple.
"Isn't your lord Qin Hua, the Jincheng County Guard who defeated the rebels of the kingdom?"
At this time, Jia Xu no longer cowered before, but became a middle-aged scholar.
"It turns out that it's really Mr. Jia, please take a seat."
With that, Qin Hua took Jia Xu to the seat in front of him and sat down.
"How did the adults find out that I was Jia Xu?"
"I also extrapolated from your neighbor's words and the behavior I saw before. I didn't expect Mr. to really wait for me like this. ”
"Huh? How do adults know I'm waiting for you? ”
"How can ordinary people walk such a little way in an hour, Mr. must be waiting for me here."
"Huh."
Jia Xu stroked his beard and smiled without saying a word.
In fact, he was also very conflicted in his heart, Jia Xu didn't want to join the ranks, he just wanted to protect himself, but he had also heard about Qin Hua's actions in Jincheng County, and knew that this person was virtuous, and he was also good at military affairs, if he was under this person, he might be able to survive in this troubled world.
It's just that Jia Xu is worried that Qin Hua will not listen to his plan when the time comes, and he will even kill himself because of his own plan.
"If I wasn't Jia Xu, then wasn't the wrong worship just now?"
"Haha" Qin Hua laughed, "If you can get Mr., why don't you bow down." ”
Hearing Qin Hua's words, Jia Xu finally made up his mind to join Qin Hua's command, what if he was so reusing a talented person, what if he was under his command, if something happened at that time, it would not be too late to leave.
