Chapter 43: Three knocks on Qin Mi
The relationship between Qin Mi and Guo Jia is actually very delicate, friendship can't be talked about, kindness can't be talked about, Guo Jia has the intention of soliciting Qin Mi, but Qin Mi has a defensive heart for Guo Jia, Guo Jia is not qualified to be a corporal of the noble family, and Qin Mi's talent is not a chance to be displayed under Guo Jia's account.
Qin Mi, who is in the whirlpool of the game between the Yizhou scholars and Guo Jia's warlords, is a key figure, because Qin Mi became famous at a young age and is an example of the younger generation of the Yizhou scholars.
Guo Jia wants the young generation of talents in Yizhou led by Qin Mi to serve him!
In other words, Guo Jia doesn't care about those Yizhou scholars who have already come out and hold power, sooner or later they will be deprived of the power in their hands, as for life and death, it doesn't matter.
It is precisely because of Qin Mi's fame as a young man that he has the opportunity to enter Guo Jia's carriage and plead with Guo Jia for the Qin family in person, otherwise, Guo Jia will be kind to him in vain? If you change the Qin family's nest eggs to block the road, Guo Jia is afraid that he will directly order to be pulled into the field and cut down.
In the carriage, Guo Jia had a gentle expression, looking at the bamboo slips by the light of the window, with a leisurely expression.
Qin Mi, who was kneeling in front of Guo Jia, was sweating like rain, constantly raising her sleeves to wipe the cold sweat on her forehead, and opened her mouth several times to speak, but it was difficult to speak, and she was restless.
What did the Qin family do?
Although Guo Jia is not a king, he will not tolerate such a thing as rebellion, the law of the empire, rebellion is to raze the three clans, even if Guo Jia is gracious, one less clan and two clans can be, but the Qin family itself must not be let go.
Father's family, mother's family, wife's family, just the father's family, the Qin family is full of people!
Qin Mi only thought about pleading, but when the words came to his lips, he really couldn't say it.
If Guo Jia can even tolerate rebellion, then what prestige does he have? What will those who are dissatisfied with him fear? Anyway, the consequences of the rebellion are not so serious, so why worry?
At this moment, Qin Mi was really shocked, and he was speechless even if he could speak well.
But Qin Mi thought about it again, Guo Jiaken must be justified when he saw him, because Guo Jia disdained to ridicule and belittle him, and the Qin family's blame was a foregone conclusion.
This reason is that Guo Jia wants to recruit him, Guo Jia is a monarch, a monarch, not by force, not by strategy, the most important thing is to know people well, Guo Jia does not lack tens of thousands of brave generals, nor does he lack a decisive victory thousands of miles away from the ministers, but Guo Jia still lacks talent and fame.
He is a thief in the eyes of the people of the world, everyone gets and is punished, the Han Dynasty lasts for more than 400 years, the blessings are generous, and there must be loyalty in the ten chambers, Guo Jia wants to gain a foothold in troubled times, and it is not possible to rule by force alone, it is necessary to win the hearts of the people in the world, and the hearts of the people Guo Jia will collect it himself, but the heart of the talented, Guo Jia has more than enough heart and insufficient strength, so recruiting Qin Mi is to set an example for talented people in the world.
Guo Jia, who has a gentle expression, is actually a little happy in his heart, he wants to completely rule Yizhou, in addition to removing hidden dangers, he must also recruit talents, Qin Mi's identity is sensitive, even if he has the heart to vote, but he will not vote openly, now, the Qin family rebelled, but gave Guo Jia a chance.
Putting down the bamboo and wood slips, Guo Jia raised his eyes and looked at Qin Mi, at this time Qin Mi's expression had calmed down, and he was silent about Guo Jia's question, what the Qin family did, it was difficult for him to open his mouth to plead, and now he just waited for Guo Jia to put forward the conditions.
"Ziyun, let me ask you a question first, did your uncle and second uncle rebel, did you participate in it?"
To participate in the rebellion, you don't have to go into battle shirtless with a knife and gun, and behind-the-scenes planning can also be regarded as a contribution.
Qin Mi bowed, did not look up, and said softly: "The sculptors know that the elders in the family are secretly plotting, but they don't know the specific matters, when they raise troops to rebel, the sinners can only persuade the father of the family not to help, and ask the general to punish the crime." ”
Picked up the bamboo and wood slip and knocked Qin Mi's shoulder again, Guo Jia waited for him to get up before nodding and said: "It is reasonable that Zi Meng and the two do not help each other, you are not the master of the Qin family, and you have no right to decide on major matters, I don't blame you." Ziyi, let me ask you, if I only cut off the bloodline of your eldest uncle and second uncle of the Qin family, leaving your father and the Qin family's relatives who did not participate in the rebellion, will you hate me? ”
Qin Mi's face showed excitement, and he bowed to the ground again, and said in a trembling voice: "Thank you for the kindness of the general!" Thank you, General, for your kindness! The general's subordinates were merciful, and Mi was grateful, and he didn't dare to hate. ”
The heirs of the Qin family clan are vigorous, and according to the law, if the three clans are razed, at least hundreds of people in the Qin family will be killed.
Before Qin Mi raised his head, Guo Jia asked again: "So, Zi Xun, if I recruit you to Yizhou Mansion as an official, are you willing?" ”
This is a bit of a coercion of the meaning of retribution, Qin Mi raised half of his head and hung down again, and said in fear: "General, my Qin family has committed a rebellion, Mi knows that he is guilty, and he does not dare to accept the general's kindness again, please let Mi live in seclusion and live alone." ”
This kind of shirk, I'm afraid only Qin Mi dares to say it in front of Guo Jia, he doesn't appreciate any kindness, Guo Jia knows that Qin Mi is unwilling to serve him for at least two reasons, the Qin family is in turmoil, Qin Mi is out of office, he will face the world's corporal criticism, thinking that he Qin Mi succumbed to Yinwei to be a thief, and Qin Mi was born in the Yizhou Shi clan, even if Guo Jia's ministers are brothers of the Zhen family, they are only half-official and half-business, in terms of background, Qin Mi is afraid that it will be difficult to get along with the public.
Knocked Qin Mi's shoulder with a bamboo slip for the third time, and after Qin Mi straightened his waist with a look of panic, Guo Jia put away his smile and asked calmly: "Zi Meng, I killed the two veins of the Qin family, and left the rest of the people, you should know the risks and pressures, right?" ”
The risk is that someone will continue to make trouble, and the pressure is that Guo Jia's ministers and generals will inevitably disagree with him doing so, and it is only a decision that a monarch should make at this moment to eliminate future troubles and deter others.
Qin Mi nodded silently, he also knew that the consequences of Guo Jia's doing this would definitely trigger a new round of rebellion, but the reason why Guo Jia did this, Qin Mi also knew, solicitation.
However, Guo Jia asked with a faint expression: "Zi Xun, if I destroy the Qin family, no one will object to it in public or private, but I only punish the evil line, why?" Do you think that you, Qin Mi, are qualified enough to let me open the net? ”
Qin Mi's expression was stunned, and his originally sober mind suddenly became confused again, if Guo Jia wasn't trying to recruit him, why?
Guo Jia smiled coldly and said, "Zi Meng, in this rebellion, you only see in your eyes that the Yizhou Shi clan is about to be in disaster, but do you see that the people of Yizhou are suffering from unwarranted disasters?" You only saw the two veins of the Qin family and the blood broke and stopped, did you see the thousands of people who were instigated by your Qin family to be ruined? Do you think that I, Guo Jiashi, just want you to use it for me? As a descendant of the Qin family, are you only willing to bend your knees for your own family and refuse to atone for the people? In the past, I didn't force you to become an official, but now, I invite you to be an official, because I hope you can pay off the blood debt owed to the people for the Qin family! ”
Qin Mi's eyes were full of astonishment, and the look of struggle floated on Sven Junlang's face.
In this rebellion, more than 10,000 militiamen participated in Guanghan County alone, and there were countless casualties, and these people also had fathers and mothers, sons and daughters, but they were not registered population, but they were all living people, and the dilemma of being exploited was no longer tolerated by ordinary people.
It is true that Guo Jia is a warlord, but he has always been merciful to the people, neither increasing taxes, nor forcibly conscripting, the local power is handed over to the Yizhou Shi clan for the time being, whether the people are doing well or not, Guo Jia has no merit, and there must be no fault, but a rebellion is indeed set off by the Yizhou Shi clan and the Wang clan, and the people are suffering, and the fault is all here in the Shi clan.
Guo Jia saw him showing remorse, and said in a deep voice: "I don't care if the warlords fight, attack and kill, shed blood and sacrifice, because this is a war, and the warlords everywhere expand their armies and increase their troops, and they are also recruiting warriors, and when they join the army, they should have the consciousness of the horse leather shroud." But the people are different, they are simply drawn into the battlefield, Zi Meng, can you tolerate it? Is it wrong for me to let you be a ruler for me to benefit the people? If one day, my Guo Jia is defeated like a mountain and replaced by other heroes, you Qin Mi can surrender to the new lord and continue to be an official, this is my Guo Jia's request to you, because you Qin Mi is a national soldier, and you can benefit the common people as an official! ”
Guo Jia's words were like Hong Zhong shocking people's hearts, Qin Mi's face was shocked, his eyes were moist, he bowed down to Guo Jia, and choked up: "Mi is willing to serve the general, and make a modest contribution to the general's help to the world." ”
It doesn't matter what kind of fame or face it is, Qin Mi knows what he's doing and what kind of consequences it will cause.
The world's corporal clan will scold him Qin Mi for having no king and no father, and the Qin family in Yizhou will scold him for not being a descendant, even after his death, some people may criticize him as an accomplice of Han thieves.
But all of this is not as good as Qin Mi's pure heart of wanting to atone for the Qin family, seek happiness for the common people, and support the world for Guo Jiakuang.
Stretched out his hand to help Qin Mi up, and when Qin Mi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, Guo Jia chuckled and said: "Zi Meng, I know that you are talented, but I must serve the public when I use people, so if I want to use you, I have to test your talents." ”
Qin Mi's face changed, and he arched his hand towards Guo Jia and said, "Please ask the lord to ask the question." ”
The sound of the lord made Guo Jia's heart full of joy, and the haze of Jingzhou's defeat was swept away!
Guo Jia shook his head mysteriously and said, "Here are just you and me, I will solve the question, what if you answer it?" Hehe, you go home first, or it won't be long before I send someone to invite you to Chengdu in person, and when the time comes, don't let me down when you face the exam questions. ”
Qin Mi didn't know what medicine was sold in Guo Jia's gourd, but he didn't ask, and immediately said: "Mi will live up to the high expectations of the lord." ”
When Qin Mi saluted and exited the carriage, Guo Jia couldn't help but smile when he picked up the bamboo slips and flipped through them.
A long time later, Guo Jiajin said that the deeds of hitting Qin Mi's shoulder three times with bamboo slips also became a good story.
