Chapter 126: A Good Servant Chooses His Lord
In Jinyang in October, the weather is gradually getting colder. The wild geese are flying south, and the cold dew is coming.
On the long official road, the two figures looked thin.
"Unexpectedly, Jinyang is quite cold......"
The rather weak man, wrapped in a wrapping shirt, took a big sip of the wine in the gourd, smiled, and handed it to a sword-wielding man next to him, "Have a drink?" Can ward off the cold! ”
"Huh?"
The sword-wielding man raised his eyebrows.
The sword in his right hand has a faint desire to move. Seeing this, the weak man hurriedly retracted the gourd quickly, "This is fine wine...... You don't drink and don't waste it...! ”
"Hmph."
The sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and the man with the sword snorted coldly, "Jinyang is coming, you and I are about to separate." This farewell, I don't know when we will see each other, don't blame me for talking too much, the wine hurts the body, if it goes on like this, your body ......"
"Let's live ......"
The weak man laughed, "Isn't it providential to be born, old, sick and die?" If you can't do what you want and survive, what good will it do to you? ”
The sword-wielding man was slightly silent.
The city of Jinyang City vaguely appeared in their sight.
"I heard that Wen Hou is not in Jinyang......"
The weak man gasped slightly, even though he was wrapped in the sword-wielding man, but his body was not very good since he was a child, and he was even weaker because of his indulgence.
"In Jinyang City, there is its own recruitment hall! You can wait for Wen Hou to return......"
The sword-wielding man said coldly.
"Yuan Zhi, do you really want to go with me?"
The weak man sighed lightly, "Along the way, you have also seen the scene of the current merger." In just a few months, the rule of Bingzhou has changed so much, even if it is not richer than Jingzhou, it can be regarded as a thief and a peaceful citizen. Such a good master can become the foundation of hegemony! It's when you and I can show our ambitions, why are we paranoid? Ambition but unable to carry it out? ”
With a wave of his long sleeves, the weak man changed his decadent state and was full of energy, "Today, the princes are together, and the heroes are competing for the deer!" Li Dao and Guo Yan occupied Chang'an, embraced the land in Guanzhong, coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and then the thieves in Xiliang were not afraid, Li Guo and the two were brutal, did not cultivate people's hearts, and brought about their own destruction. Yuan Shao according to Jizhou, with the help of the family, won many battles, the battle of the boundary bridge, defeated the white horse general Gongsun Zhan, Jia thought it was a good lord, went to vote for it, but was disappointed. Although Yuan Shao has the heart of a polite and virtuous corporal, he does not know how to use people's strategies. In addition, there are Huainan Yuan Shu, Jingzhou Liu Biao, Yizhou Liu Yan, Youzhou Gongsun Zhan, Xuzhou Tao Qian, Beihai Kong Rong, etc., but these people are not enough to have the hope of success! ”
"A good minister chooses his master, so everything can be accomplished. And if there is no good master, Wu Zixu, Sun Wu has amazing talent, and in the end he will just die, and sit back and watch the country annihilate! You have always had a chivalrous heart and are determined to help the world, but now what you see in Bingzhou can be as you wish in your heart? ”
Guo Jia's eyes that see through people's hearts seem to have seen through Xu Shu's heart! Xu Shu couldn't speak for a while.
"Yuan Zhi is not Cao Mengde, but he thinks that Cao Mengde is good at killing, and he even killed the celebrity Bian Rang! There were many raiders in the places where the officers and men of the army passed. But what happened to Wen Hou? ”
"Killing one's father and being a thief, what does it mean to be without fault!"
Guo Jia's repeated words made it difficult for Xu Shu to refute, and finally found a word that could be counterattacked.
But Guo Jia laughed, "Then Wen Hou killed Dong Thief, how can you say this merit?" In the past, Dong thieves were powerful, and all officials obeyed them, and even Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others could only flee in a hurry. Wen Hou committed himself to the thief, endured all kinds of humiliation, and killed Dong thief in one fell swoop, is this not a hero? Let's ask the world, except for Wen Hou, who else can punish Dong thief? Now Wenhou is recruiting talents all over the world, conquering foreign races, and stabilizing the country and the people, isn't he a hero? ”
"If you are such a good master, where does Yuan Zhi want to go?"
Xu Shu concluded, "Fengxiao, when did you defend this Wenhou like this?" When I was in Yingchuan, I had never heard such a high evaluation of you! At that time, didn't you say that you disdained to talk about benevolence and righteousness, and praised Cao Mengde for having a heroic posture? ”
"This time and that time ......"
Guo Jia smiled and wanted to explain again!
But at this time, a sound of horses' hooves interrupted his words, and he saw more than a dozen horsemen galloping towards him, Xu Shu hurriedly grabbed Guo Jia's hand and avoided it.
Da-da-da-da.
Dozens of horses stopped, less than a hundred paces away from the two, and the two looked at each other.
The goal of these cavalrymen is actually against themselves?
Could it be that Wen Hou already knew about their entry into the state?
But soon, Guo Jia denied the idea in his heart.
A dozen middle-aged scribes in front of him, not wearing armor, wore a wide robe, and leisurely got off his horse, and the essence in his eyes swept the two of them, and then put them forward.
There were more than 100 horsemen, escorting two exquisite carriages, slowly coming.
On the carriage, the curtain was lifted slightly, revealing the face of a graceful and noble woman from inside, "How dare you bother Mr. Lao to invite you to greet you......"
"The main gate of Jinyang is congested, madam, please come with me."
The middle-aged scribe said.
A group of people slowly drove in front of the two. But when the curtain on the carriage behind was lifted, an old face was revealed, and the middle-aged scribe was also smiling and saluting. Guo Jia's face was quite surprised.
The middle-aged scribe glanced at Guo Jia and the others again, "You are scholars from other places?" ”
"Meet Jia Zhizhong."
Guo Jia smiled confidently.
With Guo Jia's sentence, not only the middle-aged scribe, but Jia Xu, who was engaged in the middle of the state administration, was surprised. Even Xu Shu, who was beside him, was also surprised! This middle-aged scribe in front of him turned out to be one of Lu Bu's right-hand men in the rumor, Gu Zang Jia Xu?
Before entering the annexed state, Xu Shu heard about the two major strategists around Lu Bu. One was Li Yan, a native of Hanoi, who was not in charge of the state at the time. The second is this Gu Zang Jia Xu. In Bingzhou, although Jia Xu is not the No. 1 strategist under Lu Bu, he is engaged in governance and manages the governance of a state, but he is a high-ranking power.
"How do you know I'm in this state, Jia Xu?"
Jia Xu became interested.
Originally, he just thought that these two people were quite different, so he asked casually! Who knows, this seemingly weak man can reveal his identity at a glance!
Jia Zhizhong was wearing a wide black robe, with a bulging sac around his waist and an official seal, so he must be an official. But none of these are enough to deduce Jia Zhizhong's identity. But the carriage that had just passed me was extraordinary. His wife, graceful and luxurious, must be very human. I came from Hanoi, and I heard that Yan, the wife of Wenhou, also went to Jinyang. And with that lady's appearance, I'm afraid it must be Mrs. Wenhou! And those who can greet Mrs. Wenhou in person and serve as Mrs. Wenhou's Mr. Yan are probably only two people in this state. ”
