Anlu, two four-wheeled carriages were parked outside a house, and a young man got off the first carriage, he walked to the door, made sure there was no seal on the door, and then fastened the knocker.

'Be calm, be calm' Di Jun puffed himself up in his heart, today he returned to Anlu to visit relatives, he thought that his father was not in the house, just to brew emotions, but he didn't expect his father to be there, then he had to face the challenge.

Footsteps sounded from far and near behind the door, and after a while, the sound of the door bolt rang out, and Di Jun knew that it was the porter who came to open the door, and he had to keep his clothes neat and tidy, which was his father's request, so he didn't dare to violate it at home.

The door creaked and slowly opened, Di Jun thought it was the old porter and was about to explain some things, but he didn't expect that it was his father who appeared in front of him, Di Jun didn't come back to his senses for a while, so he looked at his father who suddenly appeared in a daze.

He looked at the eldest son standing outside the door, then noticed two carriages behind him, and then focused on the carriages, looking at the bulging cloth bags, and then turned his gaze to the eldest son's face.

"Da Lang, what is this?" His tone was full of doubt.

Seeing his father looking at him with the eyes of a thief, Di Jun hurriedly explained: "Father, this is the money, grain and cloth that the child brought back from Bazhou."

"Brought back from Bazhou?" Di Di Wen asked, his tone was full of doubt, and his eyes became sharp, Di Jun listened to this question, and he coughed dryly and quickly explained.

This grain and cloth were his military salary, along with the help of the soldiers to write letters and the rewards for participating in the war with the army, and after counting the number in Xiyang City, Bazhou, he made a list, and brought it to Anlu by messengers going back and forth between Anlu and Xiyang to prepare in advance.

Then he set off from Bazhou empty-handed back to Anlu, and after arriving in Anlu, he picked up the goods at the logistics point of the Hulin Army according to the order, and then there was a carriage to help deliver it to the door.

"Wei Di has a long history, and he was ordered to help the lord of Wei Di to transport money and food back to his home." A clerk stepped forward and saluted and said, Di Shiwen is now the governor of Anzhou, but he still lives in the old place and has not moved his nest, I heard that this one is not easy to get along with, so he is also cautious when he speaks.

He took the list, read it carefully, turned around and handed it to the butler who followed him and instructed: "Unload it into the warehouse, the number should be clear, not too much." ”

The clerk smiled bitterly when he heard this, others always instructed "no less", this one is afraid of "more", the rumors are true, the official in front of him is as clear as water, other officials are cheap to take advantage of, this is afraid of taking advantage of others and bad reputation.

After a toss, the money, grain, and cloth that Di Jun brought home were successfully put into storage, because it was not yet time to eat, the father and son talked in detail in the study, and Di Erlang and San Lang were also present.

Since following the Hulin Army to Bazhou in October last year, this is the first time he has returned home, of course, the normal correspondence has not been broken, so Di Dijun has a general understanding of all kinds of things that happened in Bazhou.

But now the topic is another: Bazhou assassin Shi Yuwen Wenwen wants to dismiss Di Jun as an official and join the army as a soldier in Bazhou, and Di Jun is back to report to his father to ask for advice.

In this era, there are several ways to enter the official career, such as recommendation, conscription, enlistment, shadow, and incursion, etc., and the conquest is that the imperial court recruits people with high reputation to be officials, and the conscription is the emperor's conscription, and the requisition of the secretary of state and county officials to recruit someone as a subordinate.

That is to say, Bazhou Assassin Shi Yu Wenwen, the state official, wants to grant the civilian Wei Dijun official position, and be his Lie Cao to join the army, Lie Cao to join the army is the collective name of a series of military participation such as Hu Cao, Gong Cao, and Bing Cao, Bazhou is the state of the seven lives, and the grade of the Lie Cao army is the second life.

Assassin Shi can recruit state adjutants, except for Changshi, Silu, and Sima, who must be appointed by the governor's office, the rest of the adjutant officials are promoted by Thorn Shi himself, but the key is not this, the problem is that this means that Di Jun officially embarked on an official career.

For Wei Di Shiwen, this is a matter of time, he knows that this Xiyang County Duke got his eldest son to the Hulin Army, and this is the kind of idea, similar to Xu Langjun of Yuezhou's Xu Envoy Jun's family, and he also took this road.

He didn't bother with his son's entry into the army because he was a second-life Liecao joined the army, but he was afraid that his son would not be able to do it.

He was afraid that people would say that Di Jun was incompetent, and he didn't want to be an official just by virtue of his father's position.

"Father, the child has been managing logistics for most of the past six months, promoted to the head of the building in the army, and has also participated in the rectification of state military affairs, accumulating a lot of experience, if he takes office, he will never make mistakes." Di Jun said angrily.

After nearly 20 years of accumulation of power by his father, he couldn't resist for a while, but when it came to the question of whether he was competent, Di Jun would not back down, because he had a solid experience for a year, and later followed the lord Bo Zhengtong to deal with many state affairs.

"In this case, then the big man should be a good official, and remember not to accept bribes, not to bully the people, and not to collude with those officials."

Di Shiwen explained seriously, he has been an official and led the army, whether he is an official or a general, he is not the same as a dirty, jealous and hateful.

Although the eldest son has become an adult a few years ago, he is unwilling to please his colleagues or officials for his son's entry into the office.

The owner of Yuwen Wen Hulin Army is graded, but this is nonsense in the eyes of Di Shiwen, and now that his son has officially entered the office, he is a little ashamed as a father, but he is more vigilant, Di Shiwen does not want his son to become the kind of corrupt official he hates:

"If you dare to do evil, you will be arrested for your father and go to the official!"

"Father, the child still has something to tell." Di Jun said that his father agreed to him to join the company, which was a major turning point in his life, but as the eldest brother, he also had to think about his younger brothers.

"What else?"

"Yuwen Envoy Jun hopes that Erlang can go to the army to help, just like a child" Di Jun plucked up the courage to speak, and as soon as these words came out, Erlang and San Lang, who were sitting next to him, raised their heads suddenly, and looked at their brother as if they were seeing a ghost.

Di Erlang clenched his fists, and bowed his head with the excitement in his heart, his brother wanted to save him from fire and water, and whether he could escape or not depends on his father's thoughts.

He hoped that the second brother could go out smoothly, so that next time it would be his turn, but the eldest brother and the second brother went out, leaving him to face his father who stayed at home and read books all day, how could he survive the isolated and helpless days.

Hearing this, Di Shiwen was a little puzzled, and he asked his eldest son, the Yuwen envoy, why did he ask Erlang to go to the army to do things, could it be that he couldn't find a literate person to manage military affairs until now?

"The army recites thousand-character texts every day, but the soldiers can only memorize them, and most of them can't write," Wei Dijun said slowly, and he was also pondering the words in his heart, so as not to say something wrong and end up falling short.

"Yuwen envoy can go to Mr. Xiangxue to teach in the army, especially teach him how to write the script!" When Di Shiwen said this, he became a nameless fire, and Yuwen Wen crusaded against Chen Guo and came up with a smiling and generous text, the content of which he had seen later, it was simply vulgar.

I thought it would be a lot of progress in two years, but I didn't expect it to be the same as that day in the hall, inexplicable!

Speaking of this, Di Shiwen couldn't help but think of the past, two years ago, he and Yuwenwen, as envoys of Anzhou, went to Chang'an to discuss peace talks with the imperial court, but when Yuwenwen was in the palace, he inexplicably teased Yang Jian, the auxiliary government of Sui, and made a farce alive.

Forget it, the past is unbearable to look back, Di Shiwen felt that this Xiyang County Duke was a little incomprehensible, saying that he didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, saying that he was full of poetry and books and didn't like words, and the dignified and upright prose, even if he found a township teacher to write it, he wouldn't write it like that.

Di Di Shiwen's grandfather Di Gan, followed the Qi Emperor Shenwu Emperor Gao Huan to raise troops, and later became a high-ranking official of the Qi State, named the king of Zhangwu County, although the position is high and powerful but the big characters do not know one, when signing only write the word 'dry', or reverse strokes on it, when people call it a cone.

After the family was well-off, Di Shiwen's father, Di Di Jingfu, began to read and write, at least the signature can be written completely, and Di Di Shiwen has been reading since he was a child, and he dare not say that he is comparable to the erudite, but he has gotten rid of the stigma of mud legs.

So as soon as he saw that it was rumored to be written by Yuwen Wen himself, he only felt that this person was not ashamed of not learning and unskilled, and regarded the military \ national affairs as child's play, and now he beat his family's Erlang's idea, he was really angry: Erlang has little knowledge, what if he learns badly!

Wei Dijun had already expected his father's reaction, so he hurriedly broke the news of the content that had been prepared for a long time: "Father, Yuwen envoy Jun is preparing for Tuntian, and it is when there is a shortage of manpower"

"Huh?" Di Shiwen was stunned when he heard this, he has been up and down in officialdom for decades, of course, he can hear the meaning of this 'Tuntian', and if he thinks about it carefully, if he goes further after Tuntian, it will really be understaffed.

"Father, don't say anything else, just fighting with the army is not what Mr. Xiangxue is willing to do." Di Jun struck while the iron was hot, "The child has been stationed with the army in Yanji on the south bank of the Yangtze River for a long time, and he is besieged by countless Chen troops every day. ”

"Da Lang has killed the enemy in battle?" Wei Di Shiwen asked, seeing Wei Di Jun nodded, he also nodded slightly: "Wen and Wu, both are indispensable, think back then, your great-grandfather was just a humble soldier in the border town, until Emperor Shenwu"

He was looking back on the deeds of his grandfather, Di Digan, in order to educate his three sons to be motivated, and this cliché had long made their ears calloused, but the focus of Ji Di Erlang and San Lang had been attracted by the heroic deeds of their elder brother.

Brother is on the march! Brother has killed the enemy! Then what Yanji was besieged by many Chen troops, think about the tide of enemy ants attacking the village, my brother and other military colleagues fought hard to kill the enemy, and the arrows rained down with blood staining the red armor, how passionate it must be!

"Father, there are many people in Yuwen's army who are good at fighting, but there are very few literate people, and I want to Tuntian, so I also asked the child if there is anyone who is willing to join the army."

"Don't rush this matter, let's talk about it in a few days." He groaned, and for the first time in front of his sons, he showed a hesitant expression.

When Di Jun heard this, he was very sure in his heart, he knew that his father did not veto it on the spot, that is, there was a play, and it would be counterproductive to say more about it, and Yuwen Envoy Jun really needed manpower, especially those who had read books and could write.

Anyway, Erlang can be like him when he arrives in the army, and he can support himself just by writing letters, and Di Jun decided to wait for San Lang to grow up in a few years, and also find an opportunity to let San Lang out, so that the three brothers can escape from the fire pit.

If you are an elder brother, you have to think about your younger brothers! (To be continued.) )
