"Young master, it's not good, the seed pusher is here again!"

Li Kui was sleeping on his stomach in the yamen office, and when he looked up in a daze, he heard Ruan Xiaoer's loud voice like a mournful howl, echoing in the huge yamen. As for why Zhou Yuan is gone?

The eldest man went out to play.

In fact, it was not a play, but when he was in Yuzhou before, Zhou Yuan's boss, that is, the governor of Yuzhou, was in a good mood again, and saw Zhou Yuan, who was a little depressed who was tortured by official business: "Brother Zhou, you are suffering now, and you will understand in the future that it is all worth it." ”

Zhou Yuan definitely didn't believe it at the time, and thought that his boss was fooling him. The heart said: You are paddling, that's why you say that. Facing Shangguan, he suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and asked, "What do you think you should do to be a Zhizhou?" ”

"That's a good question, be a Zhizhou! You have to empty your mind, you have to think about problems at a higher level, you can't be limited to official business and yamen, you have to go out and walk more. ”

"Does it include listening to music and prostitutes?"

"This is relaxation, people can't be like a bowstring, the ground is too tight, it is easy to break."

……

Zhou Yuan didn't understand this before, and even if he heard it, he was not convinced.

But finally one day, Zhou Yuan came to Yan'an Mansion and became the prefect. Only then did he realize how wise his boss was. There were more than 280 military states in the Great Song Dynasty, and in addition to Sijing, there were more than 280 prefects or prefects. For officials at this level, no matter how well they do, it is useless. Because promotion only has the power of a small number of people, there are only a few ministries in the capital, and they can't arrange the promotion of so many officials.

At this time, if you still want to serve the country and the people, who will you see?

Even he will be discouraged, not to mention that the people who do Zhizhou will not be too young. Those who can achieve this official position before the age of 30 will naturally achieve unlimited achievements. But what about Zhou Yuan? is already in his forties, and he has been a few governors in circles, and this life has passed.

When I think about it this way, I am at ease.

And Zhou Yuan is also very relieved about the yamen, the deputy is his disciple Li Kui, and the other deputy is Chong Jianzhong, the unlucky guy who was bullied by Li Kui, and he is not a jinshi. At this time, if he doesn't paddle, what else can he do?

Especially in Yan'an, most of the official affairs are military affairs, and he is a scholar, so it is already very good not to cause trouble, let alone help.

This yamen has also become the territory of Li Kui and Chong Jianzhong.

Li Kui actually rarely comes, mainly because the recent blow is relatively big, and his Li Instein Kui plan has been shattered!

Immediately afterwards, his Lee Dickson Kui's character also collapsed.

Under the double blow, Li Kui's mentality is extremely fragile and needs to be relieved.

So, he's been messing around in the yamen lately.

This is also the reason why he idly went to encourage Chong Jianzhong to change his career to become a military general, he was so bored. But yesterday, the angry back of Chong Jianzhong was still vivid, and Li Kui thought that Chong Jianzhong would skip work for at least ten days and half a month before he would come back. Unexpectedly, after a night's work, he came again. I have to say that the famous figures in history are really extraordinary, and there is a way to endure what ordinary people can't endure, so as to achieve great feats that ordinary people can't achieve.

Miraculously, after taking a deep breath at the yamen, Chong Jianzhong showed a reluctant and tangled smile.

Then confidently stepped into the yamen.

"Bring the official documents up."

In the official residence behind the lobby, Chong Jianzhong ignored Li Kui's surprised eyes on the side, and even made a chest expansion action when dealing with kung fu, so that he could be more energetic.

Terrible!

Li Kui immediately made a reasonable assessment of Chong Jianzhong.

Chong Jianzhong soon immersed himself in official duties and couldn't extricate himself, but his efficiency was not high, and he kept thinking about his wife's encouragement yesterday and asked him to take the exam. Doesn't this make him embarrassed in front of the whole world?

Chong Jianzhong made up his mind that he couldn't be fooled by anything.

"Report! Urgent military intelligence. ”

After the colonel presented the military information to Li Kui, he stepped aside and waited for Li Kui to write a reply. Li Kui finished reading the military situation, which was not a military situation, but the situation was not good. Luda and Li Yun are all convinced, so that they have their own ideas. And Gao Yu can't suppress these people, and the same is true for Tong Guan.

This is not a big deal for Li Kui, as long as he goes, no wind and waves will be raised.

But he didn't plan to move his nest, Qin Fenglu faced the Tubo very weak, normally only a standing army of 10,000 people, and the number of 100,000 troops would only break through after being recruited. Speaking of which, it is a rabble.

In such an army, as long as the commander is not mediocre and the army's combat effectiveness is acceptable, there is no possibility that it cannot be defeated.

In his opinion, Qin Fenglu has the ability to protect himself, and it is not meaningful for him to lead troops. It is not a question of whether or not we can win the war, but whether we can annihilate all the forces of defense. The land of Hehuang is big, not much smaller than Western Xia, and the land is vast and sparsely populated, if you go by yourself, you will spend a few years in this place.

He looked up slightly and found that Chong Jianzhong was immersed in processing official documents, and suddenly had an idea.

"Uncle Yu, my little brother didn't think about yesterday's incident, please don't care. What I mean is that you are going to be a civil official, but to be a civil official who leads troops to fight is the same as Master Zhang, isn't it much better than if you are suffering in the yamen. Nowadays, there are many opportunities for meritorious service in the Northwest, but if it is really Jingping in the Northwest, can there still be such a good opportunity? has made great contributions, and maybe he can even get a commendation from a straight bachelor of Longtu Pavilion. Moreover, I have heard the news from the capital that Zhang Xiang intends to remove all the civil officials from the shadows, and he will be executed within a year or two. ”

"Won't it?"

Chong Jianzhong couldn't help but get nervous, he was a civil official, if he was really taken away by Zhang Dun, he had been working hard in the yamen for the past 20 years, wouldn't it be a waste in the end?

can bend and stretch the cultivation of Jianzhong, naturally he will not continue to fight with Li Kui, it is meaningless, even his wife turned his elbow out, chilling his heart. Besides, Li Kui's tone today is very good. At least he was not encouraged to become a military general. But Chong Jianzhong still made up his mind and didn't want to mix. In fact, he is also moved, but he can't trust Li Kui. There are so many civil servants in the shadows, Zhang Dian won't beat everyone back regardless of it, right? Isn't this going to make a big fuss?

can think about Zhang Dan's personality, and he is not sure that there must be no such thing.

This is not to say that Li Kui is covered with clouds and mountains and fog, and he does not have an accurate head. Mainly because he has worked with Li Kui for a long time, he found that although Li Kui is well-informed, there are a lot of fake news, which makes people unguardable.

"Renjie doesn't have to care, I was too Meng Lang yesterday. It's just that Zhang Xiang has nothing to think about, speaking of which, he has been an official for so many years, and he also wants to take a break for a few years and go back to his hometown to take a good look. ”

"It's not up to this yet, Uncle Yu, you are at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, how can you say such depressing words? By the way, now that the battle situation in Qin Fenglu is unstable, I don't know if there is any way to end it? ”

While speaking, Li Kui handed the military intelligence document in his hand to Chong Jianzhong, who muttered after reading it: "As long as Weizhou and Qinzhou are not lost, the people of Qingtang can't help Qinfeng Road." ”

In one sentence, just by virtue of these few words, Li Kui felt that Chong Jianzhong was extraordinary, and he must be a good material for being a handsome: "How is it?" Give it a try? ”

Li Kui still didn't give up, he felt that as long as the kung fu was deep and the iron rod was sharpened into a needle, maybe when would he want to open it?

But obviously, Chong Jianzhong did not follow Li Kui's expected thoughts, but to him: "Hehe! He smiled and continued to work on the official documents.

Li Kui continued to squat in front of Chong Jianzhong, and gestured: "You see that Tong Guan is a eunuch, and he has the idea of making meritorious contributions, how can you not have it?" Look at the foundation of the Fei Lian Army, how good! The equipment and horses of the infantry and cavalry are the best in the Great Song Dynasty, and if you go, making contributions is like picking up things. ”

Chong Jianzhong listened, finally raised his head, and asked Li Kui: "Renjie, have you thought about taking the subject exam, there will be one this summer." ”

Li Kui was stunned, he was so frightened, he took the subject exam, isn't this to lose face? Of course, it is not necessarily a shame, but it is simply impossible to pass.

Different from the imperial examination, how gorgeous the articles for the examination are, and how can Li Kui's plain style be successful. Although he is a dignified Tanhualang, Shao Shengke is a scholar and the first in the first year, and he can be regarded as a talented person, but he really has no chance to make the department, no chance at all? Li Kui asked Chong Jianzhong tangledly: "Do you want to go?" ”

"No, no." Chong Jianzhong's head shook like a rattle: "I don't have confidence." ”

This was said as if Li Kui was holding a handle in his hand, and Li Kui immediately sighed and said: "If you don't have faith, I have confidence?" I'm going to die, so I'd better not know. ”

Chong Jianzhong looked at Li Kui curiously, but he didn't expect Li Kui to be an upright person. Hearing that Li Kui had no confidence, Chong Jianzhong felt a lot better, one person is unlucky, it is better for two to be unlucky together, at least they can snuggle up and keep warm. However, between the two big men, the picture is a little dirty.

Chong Jianzhong sighed and said: "Renjie, I don't understand, I have been a civil official, why do you want to encourage me to be a military general?" Even if what you said is all right, Zhizhou leading troops to fight is extremely common in my Great Song Dynasty. But even I don't understand that I still have the ability to lead troops to fight. After all, if you've looked at my resume, you know that I have never been in the military. ”

"But I'm sure you'll make it."

Can history books deceive people?

Of course, but there are people whose exploits cannot be erased by anything. For example, in Jianzhong, after Zhang Kai, he led troops to attack the most successful coach in Western Xia, there should be no doubt, right?

Don't you put all these credits on Tong Guan's head, right?

Not to mention how unreliable Tong Guan is in leading troops to fight, that is, the prestige in the army, can he stand up?

Chong Jianzhong hesitantly put down the brush in his hand, he felt that Li Kuimo was stunned, and he had to stare at himself. But at the same time, he also heard something different from Li Kui's words. Li Kui wanted to hand over the Fei Lian Army he had brought out into his hands. For this trust, the head of the planting and construction center was a little warmly moved. I'm afraid this is the real purpose of Li Kui's pestering him. But the problem is that Chong Jianzhong, who has never led troops to fight, does not believe that he can lead this elite of the Great Song Dynasty at all.

He had to put his heart in his heart and say: "Renjie, brother, thank you for your kindness, but it's really not possible!" It's like when I go to participate in the system, I am going to bring humiliation on myself. Let me lead my troops into battle, and if I am defeated, I will kill many people. When the time comes, won't you regret not knowing anyone? If you don't worry about this army, you can entrust it to Zhao Shang, Yu Qing, Wang Yunzhi and other governors, although they are civilian officials, but they have been in charge of the northwest for many years, and they will more or less order troops, at least they will not let the Feilian army fall into a desperate situation. ”

Can Li Kui look down on these people?

Immediately raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "They are also worthy?" ”

Chong Jianzhong was very sad, on the one hand, he felt that he was valued by Li Kui, and he was a little proud. Especially the moment when Li Kui wanted to entrust Fei Lianjun to him, all his dissatisfaction with Li Kui disappeared. That's what good friends do. But the problem is, if you are reliable, why do you keep an eye on you, we haven't even been on the battlefield.

Chong Jianzhong has been a civil official before, and even as an official in the northwest, he has only been promoted by Qin Fenglu for a year and a half, and he was also kicked off because he opposed Cai Jing's city change law and opposed the change of the law. He really had no choice but to say to Li Kui: "Renjie, you go, I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman and go with you!" ”

Li Kui was stunned, opened his mouth and didn't know what to say, he was actually touched?

Don't bring this!
