There were too many gifts from the people, and Liu An had no choice but to lick a few more carriages for shipment.

However, Liu An went to Liangzhou and also brought a lot of carrier pigeons to Lin Fang, which also needed to be shipped by carriage.

A few more wagons to carry the gifts given by the people would not slow down the journey.

Leaving Jiuyuan, Liu An and his entourage crossed the Yellow River to the south and went to Xihe County, passing through Shangjun, Feng Yi on the left, and Fufeng on the right before they could enter Liangzhou.

The straight-line distance between Jiuyuan and Guzang County in Wuwei County is actually not much different from that between Jiuyuan and Zhuo County.

However, it is difficult to travel to the west of the state, and there are patches of desert wool land, so you can only detour to Xihe County and go south and west.

Therefore, it was not until the eighteenth day of the lunar month that the group arrived in Liangzhou.

After entering Liangzhou, Liu An was in a hurry, and at the same time sent people to inquire about the traces of Jia Xu and Li Ru all the way.

He only remembered that Jia Xu was from Liangzhou, and Li Ru had followed Dong Zhuo Liangzhou from a very early age, but he really didn't know where the two were from.

After inquiring all the way, after entering Wuwei County through Anding County, Liu An finally found out that Jia Xu was a person from Guzang County, the seat of Wuwei County.

And some anecdotes about him have also been talked about by many people to Liu An.

The most famous is that Jia Xu was praised by the famous scholar Yan Zhong as having the talent of Zhang Liang and Chen Ping when he was young, and when he resigned due to illness and returned to his hometown early, he encountered a rebellion of the Di people, so he was anxious to say that he was Duan Ying's grandson, Duan Ying was very prestigious among the Di people, and the Di people heard that Jia Xu was Duan Ying's grandson, so they did not hurt him.

He was even escorted home, but everyone else who passed was killed.

Jia Xu's ability to be in a hurry has enabled him to avoid disasters many times in his future career, which is exactly what Liu An values.

At a similar time, Liu An heard a lot from others, which also proved that Jia Xu's reputation in Wuwei County was extremely high and was respected by many people.

However, Liu An did not find any trace of Li Ru.

I don't know if I remembered it wrongly, or if I had already been received by Dong Zhuo and paid tribute as the first adviser.

From entering Liangzhou to arriving in Guzang County, although the journey was unwilling, because of inquiring about the news all the way, Liu An and his party traveled for eight days before finally entering Guzang County.

Guzang County is not only the county of Wuwei County, but also the state of the state, which integrates the Prime Minister's Office, the county government, and the Assassin's Mansion in one county.

Since Liu An and his entourage entered Wuwei County, they entered the eyes of the officials of the family in the city.

Therefore, many officials in Wuwei waited at the gate of Guzang County early to welcome the new assassin Shi Lin Fang.

The position of Assassin is different from that of the county commander, and is only responsible for supervising the work of the local Taishou, but does not interfere with their actions, and relatively speaking, the conflict of interest is much smaller.

Under the premise that there is little conflict of interest and the assassin plays a role in monitoring their work, local officials are more inclined to have a good relationship with the assassin rather than be rigid or ignorant.

After all, the tenure of the assassin is generally only three years, and he will leave once the deadline is reached, which will basically not affect the development of the local family.

Under the enthusiastic users of a group of officials, Liu An followed Lin Fang into the Assassin's Mansion.

He did not let Lin Fang inform others of his identity, and the county order of a county did not go to the county Shangren he was responsible for, but followed the previous Shangguan to take a detour to merge the state, and spread it, which would have a negative impact on Lin Fang.

In case the princes of the court and the central government suspect that the soldier is self-respecting, Lin Fang's life will not be guaranteed.

Moreover, during Liu An's tenure, Lin Fang did not give Liu An great favors, he had no reason to escort Lin Fang, and Lin Fang had no reason to be escorted by Liu An.

Entering the Assassin's Mansion, Liu An returned to the residence he arranged for himself to rest, while Lin Fang held a banquet in the Assassin's Mansion and invited the officials of Wuwei County.

Early the next morning, Liu An and Lin Fang went to visit Jia Xu, who was now at home.

Jia Xu's family is well-off, and the Jia family is also a wealthy family in the local area.

Jia Xu, who is now thirty-five years old, has taken over the position of family patriarch, and when he heard that the new assassin Shi was visiting, he immediately put down his affairs and went to the door to greet him.

In this way, Liu An also saw the differential treatment brought about by different status.

When he first came to Dahan, when he was still a commoner, he went to visit Gongsun Zhan, who was the county magistrate of Zhuo County at that time, and the housekeeper took him to see Gongsun Zhan.

It's just that I see Liu Ming's face, if there is only Liu An himself, it is estimated that he will not even see Gongsun Zhan's face.

And now that the Jia family has come to visit the local wealthy family, Jia Xu, who is the patriarch, actually greeted him in person.

And Liu An believed that if it wasn't for the demeanor of Corporal Lixian and letting Lin Fang come to the door in person, but just sitting in the Assassin's Mansion to summon Jia Xu, Jia Xu would definitely honestly accept the summons and go to the Assassin's Mansion to see Lin Fang.

Jia Xu is dressed in plain clothes, and looking at what he is wearing, he doesn't look like the patriarch of a wealthy family at all.

Liu An didn't know his specific age, but he felt that this person looked like he was in his thirties, but his body in the prime of life looked a little thin.

And when he was young, he may have faded the edge of his youth, there are no waves in his eyes, and he rarely makes waves, and his eyes looking at Lin Fang are neither humble nor arrogant, neither deliberately facing the wind, nor seeing any rejection.

Liu An, who has seen this person's methods, is more willing to believe that he is wise and foolish, wise and wise, and his strategy is hidden in his chest, and his plan is obvious when it is dangerous.

Jia Xu took Lin Fang all the way to the guest hall, and Liu An and Lu Bu served as his personal guards, following them together.

The other attendants remained outside the hall for the time being.

Jia Xu asked Lin Fang to prepare refreshments, and the two kept chatting about some things, and no one mentioned business.

In the end, Lin Fang couldn't talk anymore, his insight and wisdom and the ink in his chest were much worse than Jia Xu, and he was mainly here to do things for Liu An, so he didn't dare to delay for too long.

secretly looked at Liu An's eyes, and after getting Liu An's slight nod, Lin Yi said to Jia Xu:

"When I first came to Liangzhou, there was a lack of talent under him, and Mr. Wenhe had the talent of Liangping, and I wanted to set up Mr. Wenhe as a staff member, I don't know what Mr. Wenhe wanted?"

"Don't hide it from Lin Zhijun, I am suffering from a disease in my lower body, but I am afraid that my heart is more than enough and my strength is insufficient." Jia Xu politely refused.

When Liu An heard this, his eyes suddenly dimmed a little.

Although he had expected it, he couldn't help but be disappointed when he heard Jia Xu's refusal.

Lin Fang has no power in the court, and he is not from a wealthy family, plus his prestige and prestige are insufficient, although he relies on Xianbei's merit to worship the history of Liangzhou, it is far from enough to make a wise man like Jia Xu excited.

When Lin Fang heard Jia Xu's refusal, he didn't know what to do.

He was treated by Jia Xu and above by virtue of his identity, which was already the limit.

If he wants to do other things, it depends on his own ability.

But Lin Fang's ability in all aspects is average, otherwise he would not have been forced to close his door by many heroes in Wuyuan, pretending to be addicted to alcohol.

What kind of person is Jia Xu, even though the eye contact between Liu An's master and servant is extremely vague, but based on this alone, he can see that the relationship between the two is not ordinary, and he can't help but glance at Liu An a little more.

But he was as smart as him, but he didn't point it out, Jia Xu didn't want to cause trouble for himself, the more he knew, the faster he died, he still understood the truth.

Then he simply pretended not to see it, lowered his head and concentrated on drinking his own tea, allowing Liu An and Lin Fang to make eye contact at will.

Lin Fang saw that Jia Xu didn't pay attention, so he looked at Liu An and waited for him to give instructions for the next step.

Liu An was thinking hard about digging Jia Xu into his camp, and after a while, when he glanced at Jia Xu, he found that he had been drinking tea with his head down, and had not looked up at the guest sitting down for a long time.

2k

This is obviously very rude, Liu Anke does not believe that Jia Xu's wisdom would make such a low-level mistake.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu An knew that Jia Xu might have discovered his abnormal relationship with Lin Fang.

Liu An simply didn't pretend anymore, he simply stated his identity and ambitions, and invited Jia Xu with a frank heart, but it really didn't work, so he could only coerce him.

However, Liu An believes that with Jia Xu's wisdom, he will definitely be able to guess that after he reveals his intentions, if he still refuses to comply, he will definitely kill people.

So even if it is only to save his life temporarily, he will definitely stabilize Liu An temporarily, agree to his request, and then think about a way out of the predicament.

After Liu An entered Jia Xu's house, he had already paid attention to and observed that Jia Xu was a simple person, and the furnishings at home and his own clothes were extremely simple.

In the same way, there were very few servants in his household.

There are only a few old mothers who do laundry and cooking, old men who are in charge of cleaning, and then there are three or four young men who carry heavy objects and do chores.

These people, even if they are only Liu An and Lu Bu, will not look at them at all, not to mention that there are twenty guards outside the door.

After considering the wording, Liu An stood up from behind Lin Fang, bowed to Jia Xuzuo, and said:

"In Xia Liu An, the word Changsheng, I have seen Mr. Wenhe."

When Jia Xu heard someone talking to him, he couldn't pretend anymore, put the teacup aside, got up to greet Liu An, but still looked at Lin Fang with a puzzled expression.

asked, "Lin Yuanjun, ...... this?" ”

"Don't dare to hide Mr. Wenhe, this is my Ming Gong, the former Jiuyuan county magistrate, and now he has been moved to Zhuo County. I wonder if Mr. Wenhe has ever heard of the county magistrate Liu who defeated Xianbei? ”

Jia Xu has been cultivating his self-cultivation for a long time, and he has long been able to be happy and angry, but when Lin Fang said the sentence 'This is my Ming Gong', he couldn't help but be shocked.

He could see that the relationship between Lin Fang and Liu An was not ordinary, but he couldn't imagine that Lin Fanggui was the assassin of Yizhou, and he was willing to worship such a young Lang Jun.

He originally thought that Liu An was the son of Lord Lin Fangen or the son of a wealthy family or something, but he didn't expect the two to be master and servant.

Later, I was even more surprised when I heard Lin Fang say that this person was the Jiuyuan County Magistrate who defeated Xianbei.

Most of the people who often pay attention to the world's major events have heard that the magistrate of Jiuyuan County was ordered by Wuyuan Taishou to lead the county soldiers to defeat Xianbei in the west.

It's just that they only know that the county magistrate of Jiuyuan is surnamed Liu, and he is called the county magistrate Liu, but his specific name and age are not clear.

Jia Xu looked at Liu An, although this person is the crown, but looking at the age, it is obvious that he has not reached the age of the crown.

Jia Xu couldn't help but sigh: "What a hero out of a young man!" County Magistrate Liu...... No, Liu Xianling was able to make such a great contribution at a young age, and his achievements in the future are limitless. ”

Jia Xu said this, but he didn't mention that Liu An was Lin Fangming's business.

Obviously, he didn't want anything to do with it.

But Liu An definitely wouldn't let Jia Xu get mixed up, he smiled bitterly and said:

"The future is limitless? This big man...... It is not known how long it can last, the fate of you and me, and the fate of all living beings in the world are unknown. ”

"This ......" In the face of Liu An's rebellious words, Jia Xu made an embarrassed look at the right time, and wondered: "Where did Liu County Ling say this?" ”

"Mr. Wenhe, don't hide it." Liu An said with a smile: "When today's son is close to the minister, he sells his official beard without restraint; The eunuchs are rampant, the princes of the court compete for power and profit, and fight with the eunuchs to the death; Cholera is everywhere in the world, border counties have been in war for many years, there is smoke in the interior from time to time, natural and man-made disasters are swarming, and the people have no way to live; However, the Son of Heaven is not merciful, taxes are not reduced, disaster relief is unfavorable, and the exploitation of the powerful is intensified; On this occasion, there are great sages and good teachers who come out of the world, give Fu water to cure diseases, allocate money and food to save the people, and gather millions of Tianping disciples in the eight states of the world, just waiting for a good opportunity to uncover the rod! A big man, rotten to the point of Si, with Mr. Wenhe is highly talented, don't say you don't know! ”

Jia Xu's originally Gu Jing Wubo's eyes, listening to Liu An's detailed count of the internal troubles of the big man one by one, gradually lit up.

It's just that when Liu An finished the last sentence, his eyes dimmed again.

"Alas......" Jia Xu sighed and said, "Thank you Liu County for looking at it, but I already know that my Han has so many disasters, and then ...... And how? There's nothing you can do! ”

Liu An couldn't help but be happy when he saw that Jia Xu was finally no longer hiding it, so he stopped hiding it, and said to Jia Xu again:

"Don't hide it, Mr. Anai is the great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty after King Jing of Zhongshan. Now that my Han is about to fall, I am a member of the Han family, and I am determined to revive my Han, and I hope Mr. can help me. ”

Jia Xu did not waver because Liu An was a member of the Han family, shook his head at Liu An, and no longer said anything.

"Sir, do you want to watch the Great Han go to perdition?" Seeing that Jia Xu was indifferent, Liu An couldn't help but be a little anxious.

But Jia Xu was still sitting with the old god there, and he didn't speak.

Liu An said again: "Or is it that Mr. has decided that the great man's strength has been exhausted, and no matter how hard he tries, he will inevitably end up dying?" ”

"Where did County Magistrate Liu start with this? Xu Ke never had such an idea. Jia Xu can't let this go unchecked, and he will be beheaded when it gets out.

"Huh." Liu An smiled and said freely: "That's it, the world of the Han Dynasty has long been made into a miasma by the bastard Son of Heaven and the first emperor, An is not afraid of Mr. jokes, and today he dares to say here, if this Han is not safe, he will die in less than a hundred years!" ”

"An finally asked Mr. Wenhe again, do you really want to help An?" Liu An's words already faintly carried a threat.

Jia Xu just heard Liu An angrily scolding the Son of Heaven and knew that he couldn't escape, whether he agreed or not, he didn't want to escape from Liu An's palm today.

And he knew how many people he had in his family, and the twenty heavily armed soldiers brought by Liu An were just outside the door, and he had no chance to escape or even ask for help.

However, after Liu An finished his virtuous brother and today's son, Jia Xu thought a little more highly of Liu An.

Even for the sentence he said later, if there was no words that he would die in a hundred years, he was faintly looking forward to it.

Jia Xu is now thirty-five years old, and he has lived for thirty-five years as a Han Chinese, and it is impossible to say that he has no feelings for the Han people.

It's just this big man...... In his opinion, it is really hopeless.

However, if it is this young man who defeated Xianbei at a young age and can gain insight into most of the internal troubles of the Han family, perhaps, it is not impossible.
