The sun shines all over the quiet room, and the agarwood on the low table is slow.

Ji Zhan picked up the tea bowl and drank it slowly, but the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, looking at Mei Langjun's expression and demeanor.

Playing the piano to Mingzhi?

The person who knows the sound must understand the meaning of the piano, if the song of the words is written, it must not be "Yilan" but "Ambush on All Sides"! Liu Nong didn't expect that the song that would be rewarded on a whim was not only listened to by Song Yi, but also heard by Ji Zhan, how could he not be surprised?

Half a day.

He waved his hands deeply and said astringently: "Liu Nong touched the scenery because he saw the magnificence of the mountains and rivers, and he didn't want to enter the ears of the county guard!" Please don't blame the boy for being arrogant! ”

"Very good!"

Ji Zhan originally saw that Liu Nong was too old and serious, and he was afraid that he was a scheming person, and he didn't want to go through this look, Mei Langjun's face was shocked and slightly ashamed, and he was clearly a good boy with a young spirit and a hard work.

I was very happy in my heart, put the tea bowl on the shelf, stroked my beard and smiled: "Zhan Zhen, how old are you?" ”

Liu Nong replied: "The year will be fifteen!" ”

"Hmmm......"

Ji Zhan stroked his long beard and made a move, and then his eyes lit up, stared at Liu Nong, and said with a smile: "Now, you have a good reputation, do you want to enter the company through the evaluation of the Ministry of Officials in the future, or are you promoted by others?" ”

Why? Such a blunt statement!

Liu Nong was secretly slightly shocked, but his face did not change, his mind turned in an instant, he already had a plan in his chest, he waved his hand in a deep voice, and said loudly: "The county guard is in front of him, how dare Liu Nong hide it, the kid wants to be evaluated by the Zhongzheng and go through the Ministry of Officials, weigh his talents, and do what he can." ”

"Huh!"

Ji Zhan couldn't help but let out a sound of surprise, his right hand holding the silver beard paused halfway, and his eyes looked straight at Liu Nong.

In his heart, Liu Nong is a person who has the heart to serve the country, and he has won a reputation before he reaches the crown, and he will definitely take the route of being appreciated and promoted. Unexpectedly, Liu Nong would choose to go through the ministry. At that time, most of the children of the scholar clan with a relatively thin family background liked to be promoted, and only the children of the poor family would make such a choice when they had no choice but to do so. The reason is very simple, the official positions are higher, and the positions they follow are all civilian, and there is no case to waste. It is to be promoted faster. Because of their shallow family education, it was extremely difficult for them to stand out when they were young, so they had to accumulate slowly and wait for Zhongzheng to be equal, just like Tao Kan and others......

Ji Zhan thought about this, glanced at Liu Nong opposite, and saw that his eyebrows were right, his expression did not seem to be empty, and a thought inexplicably drilled into his heart. Secret Dao: Could it be that this son wants to seek the prince's sacrifice? If the prince gives up his people, and then places a county and a land, it will be ......

Liu Nong is also thinking deeply, since he talked with Yang Shaoliu overnight, he has become famous in just half a year, and few people in the young generation can come out of it, if it is easy to take the promotion route. According to the law of Jin, those who are above the fourth rank can be rewarded for their talents. If it is promoted for civil officials, most of the official positions are writers, literary scholars, etc.; If it is to control the states and fake the opening of the military, the history of the assassination. Most of them are in the army, such as Guo Pu, Yuan Tan, etc.

However, at present, there are two positions, and Liu Nong is unwilling to be promoted by civilian officials, and it is desirable for military officials to be promoted, but they cannot be promoted. The reason why this is the case is all because the history of the opening of the state is except for Tao Kan. Most of them are controlled by General Wang Dun's mansion, and in two more years, Wang Dun will rebel! If he wants to go to Luoyang, Wang Dun is an obstacle that cannot be bypassed, and with his Chen army and Yuzhang guarding the Yangtze River, it is difficult for the Hu people in the north to go south. But it is difficult for those who aspire to sweep the north in Jiangdong to go north! Just like Zhu Zhonglang, he had no choice but to march to Yizhou, hoping to open up the road to the north from Yizhou! Just like the ancestors, he fought bloodily in Yuzhou, and finally tore the road to the north, but the back road was cut by Wang Dun......

Wang Dun, Wang Chuzhong! Within five years, he took the military government and rebelled twice!! If you want to go north, it will be in these five years! If you want to fly high, it's these five years!

In the past five years, we have seized the day, and time is running out......

Liu Nong's thumb clasped his index finger, the sea of thoughts was surging, for a long time, he subconsciously obtained a teacup from the case to drink slowly, drink slowly, gradually his eyebrows flattened, and his breath was long. And Ji Zhan was still in deep thought, holding his silver beard with one hand, and the sharp edge in his eyes was bright.

The room was silent, and a needle drop could be heard.

At this time, Ji Zhan's eyes slowly closed, glanced at Liu Nong, slowly put the tea bowl aside, but his body was already on his knees, and said with an indifferent smile: "Zhan Zhen, come with me!" ”

"Yes, Keeper." Liu Nong waved his hand in response.

Ji Zhan stepped out of the room, led Liu Nong through the corridor under the eaves, and walked straight to the backyard, without saying a word.

Liu Nong waved his wide sleeves and followed silently, not squinting.

"Smack, smack."

The clogs lap against the bluestone, making a crisp sound. The entourage and maidservants who met along the way, seeing the two coming together, avoided the side and saluted.

The sleeves of the two people's robes were like riding the wind, rolling over the pavilion and rockery, and stopped in front of the room.

Stepping into the room, Ji Zhan looked back and smiled: "Zhan Zhen, what is this place like?" ”

Half a day.

Liu Nong said: "Very good! ”

The voice was long, as if exhaling.

This room is huge, and it is better than the hall. There are nearly 100 steps left and right, and the depth is blocked by a Nanmu screen wall. The room is covered with blue reed mats, and there are several huge low cases on the table, and the things placed on the case are very strange, and if you look closely, it is a topographic map of Jiangdong that collapsed with clay. Sandbox? Although the handwork is relatively rough, it is undoubtedly a sand table! In the middle of the plate, the soldiers are marching in four formations, looking at each other across the river.

Ji Zhanji was extremely satisfied with Liu Nong's shocked expression, slowly walked to the side of the low case and sat down, beckoning: "Let's come and watch!" ”

"Yes."

Liu Nong took a deep breath, slowly swayed in his chest, straightened the green crown on top of it, swept the hem of his robe, sat opposite Ji Zhan, and poured his eyes into the plate. But it can be seen that there are marks on the city or the heavier passes, although I don't know the exact geometry, but what I see in front of me is enough to make people frightened. Marching sand table, contained in the Eastern Han Dynasty Fubo General Ma Yuan, Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu conquest of Longxi, summoned Ma Yuan to discuss the military, Ma Yuan pinched the soil to make a topographic map of Longxi and showed it, Liu Xiuguan was overjoyed, praised: This move is wonderful, Qiankun is in sight!

Ji Zhan picked up the thin bamboo on the case, pointed to the two formations across the river in the middle of the plate, and said with a faint smile: "Zhan Zhen, sitting and talking about the soldiers is very empty, with this thing, it is like a chess game, you and I will try it!" With that, he stroked his long beard with one hand, and his gaze went straight to Liu Nong.

Playing chess? This is a chess game, it is clearly a deduction of Wang Dun's 100,000 troops and the formation of swarming down along the Yangtze River! Game! It's a shame that he can figure it out! However, he is no wonder. At that time, Wang Dun was monstrous. Although the Jiangzuo Dynasty knows inside and outside the situation that it will one day be reversed, who dares to say it? Even Sima Rui and Wang Dao can only be secretly vigilant and implicitly persuasive.

Liu Nong was secretly frightened, but he knew that this was Ji Zhan's way of considering his own march, and he must not be careless, so he immediately brushed his coiled robe. Holding another thin bamboo, he put it in his hand, waved his hand and said: "The county guard has this Yaxing, how dare Liu Nong not accompany him, if there is anything inappropriate, please ask the county guard to be strange!" ”

"What's the difference? But come on! ”

"Come on!"

The two laughed at each other.

Ji Zhan held the Jiangdong Army, Liu Nong held the Wang Dun Military Mansion, and the two pushed the army into formation, fighting along both sides of the river. Ji Zhanshier sent troops to the east. The army was poured into the west, and the army was not large, but the county army and the private soldiers of the family were simulated in the heart of the Jin family, and Zhu Tao's Yizhou army and Tao Kan's Guangzhou army were among them. Liu Nong traveled 100,000 iron armor, ignoring his many harassments, and did not compete with him for a city or a place, his traces were obvious, pointing directly at Jiankang.

Half an hour later. Soldiers are coming to the city.

Liu Nong put the fine bamboo aside, waved his hand and said, "County guard." No wonder! ”

"Alas, it's like a bamboo!" Ji Zhan looked up to the sky with a long sigh, and then slapped his fist, his face was angry, and his long silver beard rolled like a wave.

"The ...... of the Guard"

Liu Nong's face was shocked, and he was stunned for a while. He shook his hands deeply and said, "Why is the county guard like this?" Sun Tzu said: The image of the soldier is water, and the water potential is thousands, and those who are good at fighting will be good at catching the opportunity of the four seasons. According to Liu Nong's view, although the county guard has lost for a while, if it has a controllable army. Under the union of many lines......" At this point, his expression suddenly paused, and then he lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, and did not continue.

"The ...... of the Controllable Army"

Ji Zhan muttered in his mouth, but he didn't know what to think, his long eyebrows suddenly twisted up, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at Liu Nong. The latter seemed to be frightened, but he forced himself to calm down, waved his hand again, and said ashamedly: "County guard, the kid is arrogant!" ”

A controllable army? A controllable army! Easier said than done......

After thinking about it, Ji Zhan's expression gradually calmed down, and he slowly stroked his silver beard, thinking: "It's about the Jin family, no matter how difficult it is, you should try it, and slowly figure it out." Alas, the veteran is old, not yet a child! ’

Liu Nong pressed his knees and was silent, looking at his nose and nose, and secretly wondered: Ji Zhan, a supporter of the Jin family, is in an extremely embarrassing situation for his people and his clan, which is not suitable for the local family, nor is it allowed for Wang Xie Yuan Xiao, Sima Rui let him be the county guard of Huiji, I am afraid that he has other intentions. And whether it is public or private, he has to do his best to make a difference. It was the Yanzhou army that would lead Xi Jian into Jiangdong in the future to fight Wang Dun! Well, if Xie Pei presents the three strategies I played to Sima Rui, I am afraid that it will be difficult to implement it immediately because of the great resistance of the family, but it may be possible to build a new army......

Both were thoughtful.

Later, Ji Zhan made up his mind and said with a smile: "Zhan Zhen has a talent and has the ambition to serve the country!" If it is a ministry, I am afraid that it will be due to a time lag! With your current reputation and talent, if there is no difference, Zhongzheng Township should be rated as the middle and upper four grades. According to the official law, those who are in the middle and upper four grades can be appointed to the position of eight grades! If you work harder, you can't help it! However, the current situation is in urgent need of talents, how can it be slowly prostrate. Well, I don't know what Zhan Zhen knows about the prince's position? ”

The prince has finally heard about it!

The prince gave up the people, the Qin period was placed, the Han Dynasty had this position, and the Three Kingdoms continued the Wei and Jin dynasties. By the time of the Jin Dynasty, there were 16 people and 7 grades. Most of them are high-class gate valves, or the positions held by the elite children of the middle and upper families. This position can be parallel to the actual position, if you have this position, the career will be smooth. However, if it is not for the family background, if you want to seek it, you will not be able to ascend to the sky!

And Liu Nong's family background is very thin, but he is determined to give up the prince!

"The prince is a person, Liu Nong has heard a little and is unknown, and he still asks the county guard to mention it."

Liu Nong took a deep breath and slowly waved his hands in response, his eyes were peaceful, and his chest was pounding, he visited Ji Zhan today, originally just wanted to have more contacts with him, and in the future, he would take good shelter from his momentum, so as to see the opportunity to flap his wings. I don't want to hear the meaning of his words at this time, as if I want to help myself find a prince to give up? Wonderful reward, wonderful reward! Enjoy it, pull it out and carry it!

Ji Zhan stared at Mei Langjun with a slight belly, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more vigorous, he was bent on Jin, and the family was damaged because of this. And this son is not yet crowned but has a pearl in his chest, and he is calm, not arrogant or dry, and he will be successful in the future! If it is brought up to him at this time, it will be beneficial to both public and private.

Secretly made a decision, he said: "Zhan Zhen has great ambitions, must not be stubborn, if you are interested in the position of the prince, wait for the crown, you should go to Jiankang!" At this point, I suddenly remembered that when I was at the top of the Lan Pavilion, this son had been praised by the nobles, and after a little thought, he was even more determined, and then said: "If Zhan Zhen goes to Jiankang, my friend Ruan Yaoji is a scholar of the Ministry of Officials, and I would like to recommend a letter to you Xiushu!" ”

Ministry of Shangshu Lang Ruan Yaoji, Ruan Fu? Recommend book revision! Ji Zhan used to be a servant, and he resigned from his illness and served as the county guard, so he naturally had the right to be promoted and introduced.

Liu Nong was overjoyed and surprised, his eyes slowly met Ji Zhan, and he saw him smiling with a silver beard, with a meaningful expression on his face, with approval at the corners of his eyes, but inexplicable ridicule at the corners of his mouth; I thought, 'If you don't take it, you will suffer it!' Don't care why he ridiculed, he simply held his hands to his eyebrows, and then waved his hands in a deep voice, and said loudly: "Liu Nong thanked the county guard!" The grace of the county guard is indescribable, and it is all in Liu Nong's heart! ”

"Wonderful! The children can be taught! Haha......"

Ji Zhan got up and laughed loudly. When I first saw this son, I was happy, and when I saw him again, Ji You was embarrassed by it, although he was humiliated, he did not hold a grudge, but took care of each other. People who know so well and have a basis for advancing and retreating, how can they not be rewarded!

At the moment, Ji Zhan re-examined Liu Nong's comprehension of "Zhou Yi", Liu Nong looked solemnly and courteously, and asked Ji Zhan one by one the many incomprehensible questions that had been in his heart in the past. Unexpectedly, Ji Zhan was a good teacher, and he was quite interested, caressing his long beard and explaining carefully.

Liu Nong lowered his eyes and listened, clicked and clicked, and made amazing words from time to time, which made Ji Zhan even more comforting and pleasant, and secretly praised: This son is really born with a beautiful crane......

By the time the two of them had their best, it was already two hours later.

"Gollum ......"

After all, Ji Zhan was very old, and when his stomach was empty, he came back to his senses, looked outside, and saw that the light of the sun had overflowed the water steps, obliquely penetrating into half of the room, and sighed: "I don't want to talk to Zhan Zhen and forget the time!" ”

Liu Nong said with a smile: "The county guard preaches and solves doubts, and the gods are immersed in it, so he doesn't realize it, how dare Liu Nong deserve it." ”

Ji Zhan ordered the maidservants to put on the meal, four dishes and one soup, the taste is average, and it cannot be compared with the cooking skills of pothos and ink glass.

Silence.

After eating, Liu Nong said goodbye and left, and when he left, he borrowed "Yi Taiji" from Ji Zhan. Ji Zhan only borrowed ten volumes from Liu Nong, and said with a smile that he would borrow them after he read them all, and Liu Nong happily agreed.

"The county guard stays, don't torture Liu Nong!"

At the gate of Ji's Zhuangyuan, Liu Nong shook his hands deeply, and after Ji Zhan nodded and acquiesced, he stepped into the ox cart that Laifu had already prepared.

"Smack!"

With a whip, the car rolled with osmanthus and slowly drove into the bamboo road.

Ji Zhan was holding his silver beard in front of the door, and the ox cart was not in sight, and when he looked back, he saw Ji You's staggering steps, and his eyebrows must have been hungover again, and he said angrily: "Shaft!" There is nothing in the chest, there is no cultivation without etiquette, why is it not dead? ”

Ji You's drunken eyes slanted, and he replied casually: "The thing in the chest is wine, nourished by heaven and earth, and stored in my belly, how fortunate!" Cultivate it in Mao, bind it to courtesy, I disdain it, and I will not fall into my will when I die! ”

"Shaft, not as good as Puffle!!"

Ji Zhan was furious and roared.

"Ah, grandfather......"

After this roar, Ji You woke up in an instant, and then his expression shook suddenly, his body tilted, snapped, and fell to the ground. (To be continued.) )
