Jia Xu also realized his incompetence and restored his previous expression of calmness. However, his eyes at Jia Rong obviously contained something strange. He did not expect that a general would have such ability in governing the area. It seems that he underestimated this cheap lord. A person with such a strategy and courage must not be a thing in the pool.

Looking at Jia Rong's expression, it seemed that everything in front of him was taken for granted. The unintentional pride made Jia Xu have an illusion that his lord became more and more unfathomable. Who knew that Jia Rong had already become accustomed to all the Jincheng and had already passed the pride period.

When he arrived at the gate of the prefect's mansion, Jia Xu was stunned again. It was said that the city was so prosperous, and the prefect's mansion, as the representative of the entire county town, should be even more magnificent and luxuriously decorated. However, the prefect's mansion in front of him was also deficient than the previous restaurants. How could he talk about magnificent? Even with Jia Xu's mind, he couldn't understand what this meant.

Jia Xu found that there were too many things that shocked him with Jia Rong, and he no longer had the same calmness as before. He pointed at the prefect's palace and asked, "Lord, is this the prefect's palace?"

Of course, Jia Rong understood the meaning of Jia Xu's words. In fact, the prefect's palace was dilapidated and many officials had already advised to rebuild it. However, Jincheng had been in development. Jia Rong could not spend more time to rebuild the prefect's palace. Every time he used the sentences in the inscription of the humble room to perfunctory officials. Not to mention, those officials were very energetic after hearing Jia Rong's words, and they regarded themselves as the one who had great scholars and had no contact with each other.

"This is the prefect's mansion!" Jia Rong said lightly.

Jia Xu glanced at Jia Rong meaningfully, followed Jia Rong silently and walked into the prefect's mansion.

The imaginary light of the willows and flowers did not appear again. The prefect's mansion was the same as the inside, and there was no change in the slightest appearance of the outside. It was as dilapidated as ever. The only change was probably the officials inside.

"I wonder why the prefect's mansion is so dilapidated?" Jia Xu asked softly.

Jia Rong smiled and said, "Wenhe, why bother with these superficial things? With the current strength of Jincheng, it is not difficult to build the magnificent prefecture's mansion, but Jincheng has been in development and does not have much time to rebuild the prefecture's mansion."

Jia Xu nodded in a vague way.

"If the mountain is not high and there is immortality, it will be famous; if the water is not deep and there is dragon, it will be spiritual. Although the prefect's mansion is just a mere shabby room, what is done is for the people, so that all the people can remember it."

Jia Rong's words touched Jia Xu very much. His eyes looked at Jia Rong more and more profound. Those who could say such words were definitely not the martial artists who only knew how to rush on the battlefield in the eyes of the world. Could it be that the lord's previous actions were to paralyze the people of the world.

No matter what, the stronger Jia Rong is, the more stable he is. In troubled times, only strength is the capital to save his life. Jia Xu wanted to ask Jia Rong several times, but he swallowed it when he reached his throat. He should know that the lord would tell him sooner or later that Jia Xu had this awareness. Jia Xu couldn't help but stop, listened carefully, and then gave Jia Rong a questioning look.

When he arrived inside the house, Jia Rong smiled and told Jia Xu about the books about Jincheng County. Jia Rong did not intend to hide the matter between Xiliang Army from Jia Xu. He suspected that he did not have to use anyone. Since he chose Jia Xu, he had to have full trust. If he appointed someone and still distrust him, it would only lead to his subordinates' reluctance.

After listening to Jia Rong's explanation, Jia Xu showed a sudden sense of consciousness, and he did not ask why there were so many books at once. Jincheng County has now become a gathering place for Han students. The treatment of students is unprecedented, and books are given to them regardless of their identity. Whether it is from aristocratic families or poor people, the establishment of the school made Jia Xu understand Jia Rong's thoughts. All literati knew that Jia Rong was not in dealing with the Yuan family of the fourth generation and the three dukes, and the Yuan family was full of students and old officials, which indirectly was equivalent to the opposite of 95% of literati. Of course, some poor scholars were grateful to Jia Rong, but they could only dare not speak out.

After the two sat down, Jia Rong slowly told Jia Xu about all the situations in Jincheng County and the Xiliang Army.

Jia Xu felt dizzy and had thought before that Xianlian Pavilion, which was popular in the Han Dynasty, might have some special relationship with Jia Rong. Unexpectedly, the owner behind the scenes was Jia Rong. What was even more surprising was that Xianlian Pavilion was all used to inquire about the news from each county. As long as there was a little disturbance, Jia Rong, who was far away in Jincheng, would know how terrifying such an intelligence network would be, Jia Xu could not imagine.

As a special force, Jia Rong also told Jia Xu without reservation, and immediately decided to let five lone wolf soldiers follow Jia Xu. The task was to protect Jia Xu's safety, which was enough to show Jia Rong's attention to him, and all the secrets that were not disclosed to outsiders in Jincheng County Crafts Workshop were told to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu said, "Thank you for your trust, Xu will do his best to help you!" For Jia Rong's trust, even a person like Jia Xu who values ​​life very much can't help but show loyalty. He can tell himself all the secrets without reservation. This shows that Jia Rong has regarded Jia Xu as his confidant from the bottom of his heart. Even if Jia Xu has the calmness of Mount Tai and is unchanged, he is excited about all this, and nothing is more grateful than trust, especially when this person is his lord.

Jia Rong helped Jia Xu up and said, "Wenhe doesn't have to do this. You and I are both master and servant. We should trust each other. Now the Xiliang Army is developing during the period of development, and many things still need Wenhe's help."

Jia Xu bowed again: "No!"

After that, the two discussed the development of the Western Liang army for a long time. Jia Xu was worthy of being a top strategist. Through the information collected by Jia Rong, he analyzed the various forces of the Han Dynasty very thoroughly, including what Jia Rong should do next. The key point was that Geng Bi, the governor of Liangzhou, first of all, had to establish a good relationship with this person. In ancient times, the wars were of great importance. After establishing a good relationship with Geng Bi, those who did not obey the orders of Liangzhou became legitimate. If Jia Rong wanted to gain a foothold in Xiliang and develop, he would please Geng Bi.

Now there are Zhang Zhao and Zhang Li inside the Western Liang Army, Jia Xu, the top strategist outside, and a group of generals, which have begun to take shape.

Second, all the county officials and the main generals of the army gathered in the prefect's mansion. This was the first time such a meeting was held. Looking at the civil and military officials gathered below, Jia Rong was filled with emotion. He thought that when he first came, he was just a small ordinary citizen. Unexpectedly, more than three years have passed and he has grown to the point where people dare not underestimate it.

Clearing his throat, he said, "It is an important matter to summon everyone here in his busy schedule!"

"Starting right away, Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe are the chief strategist of the Xiliang Army and have the power of life and death. When I am not here, Wenhe can completely replace me to manage the affairs of the Xiliang Army. Generals should treat Wenhe as they do, otherwise they will be engaged in military law!" This order was mainly issued for military generals. Summoning civil servants here is also to create momentum for Jia Xu. Jia Xu is good at strategy and has a unique military vision. Good steel should be used on the blade. Let Jia Xu manage the Xiliang Army to make this army go a long way.

After the generals were stunned, they hurriedly bowed: "No!"

Jia Rong warmly pulled Jia Xu and introduced: "This is Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe, and he will be the military advisor of the Western Liang Army in the future!"

The generals said, "Meet the military advisor!" Whether it is sincere or not, the generals will never disobey Jia Rong's words. As for whether Jia Xu has the ability to control them in the future, it is his own business.

Jia Xu was stunned for a while, then fell to the ground and bowed: "Thank you for your trust, Xu will do his best!" Even with Jia Xu's mind, he couldn't understand why Jia Rong gave him such high power. The chief adviser and military advisor, besides Jia Rong, the biggest figure in the Western Liang Army, is below one person and above ten thousand people. What a great honor. At this moment, Jia Xu seemed to have some realization, and the lord in front of him really trusted himself sincerely.

Jia Xu and Jia Rong met in a restaurant, and only became the lord under Jia Rong's pressure. They had a lot of unstable attitude. In their hearts, Jia Xu did not think that Jia Rong was a very qualified lord. Jia Rong's various actions in Beidi County naturally did not escape Jia Xu's eyes. At that time, Jia Xu even had the plan to surrender separately after Jia Rong's death, because Jia Rong's actions had exceeded Jia Xu's control. As the situation developed, Jia Rong gradually gained a foothold until he had the current Jincheng County. Jia Xu was not by his side when Jia Rong was in the most difficult time.

Jia Rong did not express any dissatisfaction with this. He heard that he had come back to greet him in person and gave the greatest power in the Western Liang army. Jia Xu felt for the first time how correct the saying of a soldier dying for his confidant was. In the past, he would definitely not agree with this stupid and loyal practice.

Jia Rong helped Jia Xu up. Maybe the two of them were still one of them five hundred years ago. I don’t know what happened, but seeing Jia Xu and Jia Rong had an inexplicable sense of intimacy, perhaps because of the two of them having the same surname.

Seeing that Jia Rong had already made the appointment, the civil and military officials under his command did not dissuade him anymore, they thanked Jia Xu. Many of the officials in Jincheng County were young people. Such people were quick to learn anything and had strong adaptability. They were all good seedlings. As long as they were properly guided, they would soon be able to stand alone.

Jia Xu also put away his attitude of not being a bird with no one, and greeted the officials who came to congratulate him kindly, and did not do anything. Since he became the second-in-command of Jincheng County, everything should be dominated by Jincheng County. The biggest thing in front of him is to get along well with the officials of Jincheng City. Jia Rong has already created enough power for himself.

The officials and generals in front of them seemed to have respectful faces and behaved with respect. They might not be what they thought. Just now, Jia Xu had already found several generals in the army whispering, and his eyes were clearly full of disdain.
