Chapter 179: Xu Guanzhong
While talking to Fu Ping, this person looked at Ximen Qing and asked Fu Ping: "This must be the official of Ximen." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Fu Ping smiled and replied, "Yes." Turning his head, he introduced to Ximenqing: "Da Lang, this is my old friend, Xu Guanzhong." ”
Ximenqing looked at Xu Guanzhong's appearance, no wonder Fu Ping wanted to laugh at him, not that Xu Guanzhong looked ugly, but it was quite weird, there was an original description in the Water Margin, Song Jiang saw that this person looked strange, the wind god was cool and elegant, his eyes were bright, and his eyebrows were divided into eight characters. Seven-foot-long and short body, with three teeth covering his mouth and beard. Wear a black crepe scarf to wipe the eyebrows, and wear a brown sermon dress with a collar along the edge. It is a miscellaneous Lu Gong □, with a pair of green cloth shoes. It must not be a mediocre person, but a man in the mountains and forests. Although Xu Guanzhong's appearance is not good, his personal temperament still asks Song Jianggao to take a look, otherwise there will be no word for Fengshen Shuangya.
The two sang to each other, and Ximen Qing invited them to sit down, and everyone sat down as guests.
Since the hour was still early, there was no need to rush to eat and drink, and the four of them sat down and gossip.
Although several of them all know Fengyue, after a few words, it is inevitable to talk about some family and national affairs.
Ximenqing asked: "I see that Brother Xu's literary talent and martial arts are all superior people, and he has the ambition of Lingyun, and he is martial arts, why don't you go to ask for an official position, and you can serve the country." ”
Guan Zhong also replied, Fu Ping sighed and said: "Today, the treacherous and evil are in charge, the virtuous and the virtuous are jealous, and those who are like ghosts and snakes are all Eguan Bo belts; Those who are faithful and upright are all framed in prison. His temperament, how can he be willing to be in the same stream with those villains, it is better to be happy with the mountains and rivers. ”
Xu Guanzhong said with a smile: "Those who know me, Fu Pingye." After that, he said to Ximen Qing: "Although I am in Hebei, but the name of your Ximen official, is like thunder, every time I talk to Fu Ping about your deeds, he is full of praise, although the official is a businessman, but there is a talent and strategy, Juyang Valley a county, kill thieves and eliminate evil, collect public opinion, gather fame, make friends with light heroes, raise strong men, and give both grace and power, and want to get the death force of their generation, so that they can serve the officials to death. ”
Saying this, his eyes widened, his eyes were clear, he looked directly at Ximenqing, and said with a smile: "Now the name of the official, the two roads of Weizhen Shandong and Hebei, and the adjacent states and counties, also spread your name, and now it is said that you are attached to the powerful people in the court, and you want to be a high-ranking official, hey." I don't know what the ambition of the Ximen officials is? ”
Fu Ping's eyes were cold, he didn't expect Xu Guanzhong to say such things to his face.
Ximen Qing laughed: "The infantry in a small county town is the head, where does the fame and minions come from?" I just have ambitions in the frontier, and I hope that one day, I can kill the enemy and serve the country, get a wife and a son, and report to the king's grace. When he saw that Xu Guanzhong was about to say more, he asked rhetorically, "I don't know what your ambition is?" Brother Xu is talented, do you really just want to be a mountain and forest warrior, and don't want to show your whole body's ambitions? ”
Xu Guanzhong also smiled: "Isn't it more chic and happy to love the mountains and rivers than to compete for power and profit with others?" If you are like the princes of the court, you intrigue every day, how can you compare to me as leisurely and elegant? As for ambition, I am an anachronistic person, not easy to restrain myself, and I do not have the great talent in the mouth of the Ximen officials. ”
"What a happy day." Ximenqing listened to the applause, raised his glass and toasted Xu Guanzhong with tea instead of wine, "People in the world are tired all day long, isn't what they want is to live happily for a day?" ”
Seeing this, Yan Qing smiled slightly and moved the topic elsewhere.
……………………
All the way to Zimo, twilight trampling red dust, hungry and thirsty, living at night.
After the Shangyuan Festival, for the sake of his own official status and dispatch, Ximen Qing wanted to set foot in Bianliang City, Tokyo. When leaving, the beautiful woman was naturally a little reluctant, Hui Niang is a virtuous person, knowing that a good man is ambitious in all directions, how can he spoil his future because of his children's affection.
As for Xu Guanzhong and Yan Qing, they stayed in Yanggu County for a few days, Ximen Qing was hospitable, and wanted to leave one person behind, but unfortunately Yan Qing was loyal to Lu Junyi and refused to stay for a long time, but Ximen Qing talked to him about some things between businessmen, Lu Junyi is a first-class rich and noble family in the Daimyo Mansion, and there are many businesses to buy and sell, Ximenqing just took this opportunity to match with him, after all, one more way, one more wealth, Lu Junyi's business in the Daimyo Mansion, fame, whether Ximen Qing sells stolen goods or other serious business, will be used, and now leave a personal favor through Yan Qing, and make money in the future. Yan Qing naturally agreed to this matter, and Ximenqing's current name is still very useful in this regard.
As for Xu Guanzhong, Ximen Qing worked hard to stay, a talent like him, it was a pity to leave like this, fortunately, Ximen Qing is a very thick-skinned person, for Xu Guanzhong, he resorted, Liu Bei looked at the thatched house, after grinding for a few days, Xu Guanzhong promised that after visiting the Quartet, he would come to Ximen Qing again for a while.
Before and after this wedding, Ximen Qing first met Chai Jin and Song Jiang, two heroes, and later got acquainted with Xu Guanzhong and Yan Qing, and met four famous people in the Water Margin one after another.
I thought to myself, "How can we grasp these rare opportunities?" ”
After thinking about it for a long time, he tentatively settled on two items.
The first is for heroes like Chai Jin and Song Jiang, including Lu Junyi, who is about to get acquainted through Yan Qing, he will never take refuge in himself without an absolute advantage, or the other party will never take refuge in himself before he has the power of life, and he is only an alliance with himself, and he will not become a superior or superior.
The second is Xu Guanzhong's kind of literati strategists, their kind of people, all have great ambitions and talents, and most of them are arrogant, looking down on their current self, and they are by no means able to get his service by showing a little favor, before proving themselves, they can't be in a hurry, they can only take their time, let them recognize themselves, and then do recruitment, although this time they failed to leave Xu Guanzhong, but left a face, even if he didn't come to find himself, he had to look for him, Liu Bei and Uncle Liu Huang can look at the thatched house, not to mention a Ximen Qinghu?
The third is Du Ling, Bian Xiang, and the generals of the same kind as Su Sheng, they are all strong martial arts, and they have the courage of ten thousand people, although they are now defecting to their own command, but there are problems with loyalty, not that they are ungrateful, but now Ximenqing, can not meet their requirements, after getting food and clothing, the quality of life, will enter a higher level, this is inevitable, want to get their continued loyalty, Ximenqing must strengthen their own forces, including Ximenqing's official positions, dispatches, Wealth, good men around them, etc., make them feel that they have an unlimited future, in this case, and then exert kindness, if necessary, arrange a few family affairs, in order to get their service to death, peace of mind to serve themselves, this time Tokyo Bianzhou City and his party, Ximen Qing's task is not light.
The plan has been decided, Ximen Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and Ju'an beside him said: "The master has been a little distracted these days, but for the sake of Tokyo Bianzhou City?" ”
Seeing that he had misunderstood, Ximen Qing didn't explain, and asked, "Where did you get there?" ”
"Master, the front is the boundary of Mengzhou."
