Chapter 333: The Yellow Sparrow Follows (Part II)
At the same time, Zhao Wuxian, who was called "Yellow Sparrow" by Shao Zhengmao, had already left the palace and walked through the streets and alleys to the west of the city.
Now that the matter in Lucheng is basically over, it is almost time for him to return to his division to take over Yuncheng. It has been brutalized by Yang Hu and Uncle Sun Zhi for several years, and this is about to enter winter, I am afraid that there is an extreme lack of food, and if it is not handled well, there will be a mutiny or cause Onozawa to steal into the country, and you must not be careless.
The rest of the city has also returned to order, but if you are attentive to observe, you can still see the street corners and dirt walls speckled traces, you don't need to look closely to know that this must be blood stains and traces after the fire.
Especially in the south of the city and under the thorns, this is the main battle site, there are hundreds of corpses, after the convergence is still rubble everywhere, mosquitoes and flies are flying. It even implicated the wood and stone on the side of the road, and the Meng family's private family cut down many trees in order to use them to build equipment to attack the inner city, so they looked bleak and dilapidated.
The people in the palace preached along the lilu, and the people heard that Lu Hou had returned safely as soon as they got up in the morning, and the people's hearts were suddenly settled, and there were sparse pedestrians on the streets, but they were no longer prosperous.
Although Lu Hou has lost power, it is still a symbol of stability and political power in Lu State, when Lu Zhaogong was expelled from the country for several years, Lu State was able to maintain the status quo, and the people were in peace, that is because the Ji family is dominant, and Ji Pingzi has also been in power for many years. Now that Sanhuan is unstable, the importance of Luhou has been unconsciously highlighted.
If the monarch's power is restored, it may suppress the Meng family and the Ji family, but Zhao Wuxian has never had the intention of respecting the monarch, and that kind of Lu State will only increase the constraints for him, he doesn't want to have more Tai Sui Ye on his head, and the monarch will be an honest puppet, just fiddling with the sacrifice.
"It will take at least half a year for Lucheng to come out of this civil strife, and for the family of the deceased relatives, this time will be even longer."
Zhao Wuxian's heart has become harder and harder, and he only sighs once in a while. Do what you can, the west of the city under his control is now the least troubled area in Lu City, but at this moment, a loud voice came from behind him.
"Doctor, please stay!"
Shirtless turned back. But it was Zilu, he had already changed into a dark official uniform, still wearing a crown on his head, a long sword at his waist, and his face was ruddy and joyful. He was striding towards this direction. He was very fast, and it didn't take long for him to arrive in front of Zhao Wuxian's horse, and Shi Shiran saluted.
Wuxian secretly said in his heart: "I happened to have something to look for him, but he came by himself." ”
"Zilu's dress is quite heroic, you have just taken office and returned to the people, and you have been ordered by the king, and you are going to take the Ji soldiers to Yangguan, I don't know why you came to me?"
No mercy or big support, dismount and show respect to him, in Zilu's opinion, this is the performance of Corporal Lixian.
"I want to thank the doctor for his kindness. Let you have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and also apologize to the doctor here, last time he even suspected that the doctor had colluded with the Yanghu party, and openly roared at the military camp, please punish the doctor! ”
Zilu has always been a straight person, and as soon as he came, he went straight to the point, thanked him sincerely, and apologized for it, and then he spit out sensitive topics on the street, in front of many people.
"The doctor should have heard of Nakayu's ambitions. Lu is a country of a thousand times, between the great powers of Jin, Qi and Wu, the Jin and Qi troops are combined with divisions and brigades, and the Yanghu chaos is caused by famine. It's more unbearable than when I was younger. I once said in front of my master that if I were to manage it, I would make the country of Lu strong in three years. But the master later criticized me for not being humble enough, and after thinking about it carefully, I also thought so, and now there are only two people who have the virtue and ability to rule the country of Lu! ”
"Oh. Could it be Ji's and Meng's Erqing? ”
"No, those who are in government are all people who fight for baskets, how can it be counted?"
What this means is that the people in power are all small people, how can they be enough?
"This is what the master said to Zigong, and now Zhong You has entered the court and found that this is indeed the case."
Zhao Wuxian thought it was very interesting, Zilu had a reckless temperament, but he confided in this thing that even Confucius would not say clearly.
"Since it's not Erhuan, who else will it be?"
"The only people who can govern the country of Lu are the doctor and the master!"
Facing this upright uncle, Zhao Wuxian was dumbfounded for a while, but who expected him to criticize Zhao Wuxian next.
"The doctor pushed the lord of the doctor, and refused to enter the Qufu Mansion in Lucheng to participate in politics, although Zhong You didn't know what the reason was, but he regretted the doctor, and regretted the tens of thousands of people in Lucheng!"
Zhao Wuxian was helpless, he couldn't tell the truth, he could only say: "Zilu should still remember my ambition, self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world, I am young and thin, I have to experience a few more years in the local area, and I can only do it in a good family, and it is too early to govern the country." ”
Zilu sighed slightly: "Zhong You is only afraid that the doctor will return to Jin, so that Lu Guo has missed a good doctor." I only hope that the doctor can join the family as soon as possible, and then enter Lucheng to govern the country with the master, so that this place will become a rich and powerful country where the old man is safe, friends believe in it, and the young man conceives it. ”
In Zilu's heart, the two people who were convinced in the Lu State except for Confucius were Zhao Wuxian, and he was very much looking forward to Confucius being promoted by Lu Hou or Sanhuan because of the good governance of Zhongdu and presiding over the national affairs of the Lu State.
Do you rule Lu together? Zhao Wuxian pondered for a moment, although he was very courteous to Confucius, and had dug up Confucius's disciples many times, he never thought of working with Confucius.
A retro conservative old man who wants to respect the monarchy, and a young careerist who digs into the corner of the Lu country and puts his own interests first, is destined to pee in a pot.
He smiled and brought the topic over: "Don't you dare to let a warrior like Zilu be a soapy little official, didn't Zilu also say that the country of a thousand times will make you govern, and you can be governed in three years?" Maybe in the future, you can also become a doctor and govern the country! ”
Zilu let out a rough laugh: "Master always says that I am reckless, so any idea needs to be thought twice. Although I have this ambition, I don't know if I can do it well, but now I still want to complete the task given to me by the monarch and go to Yangguan for a trip! ”
Zhao Wuxian happened to have something to deliver to him, so he simply sent Zilu to the north gate, and when the two were about to say goodbye, a car came quickly behind them. The driver above was a military officer of medium stature, and before he took off his armor, he jumped out of the car and bowed to Zhao Wuxian.
"I've seen the doctor."
Then he raised his head and bowed his hand slightly towards Zilu: "Senior Brother Zilu!" ”
"Son has!?"
Zhao Wuxian and Zilu were both surprised, the person who came turned out to be Ran Qiu, who was appointed by Zhao Wuxian as the head of the exile and sent to Yuncheng.
This morning, Zhao Wuxian received a fast horse transmission from Yuncheng, and his heart settled down, Yuncheng has been conquered, Zhang Mengtan will naturally send some people from Zhen and Xiaqiu to govern, there should be no big problem in the short term.
However, Ran Qiu's sudden appearance made his heart flutter and beat, Ran Qiu's voice was hoarse, his lips were chapped, and his eyes were red like rabbits. Zhao Wuxian knew Ran Qiu's temperament, slow and steady, if it wasn't for something big happening, it would be impossible to be in such a hurry!
"What happened?" Zhao Wuxian had a bad premonition.
Ran Qiu's voice was extremely hoarse: "Doctor, thieves invade Yuncheng!" (To be continued.) )
