Gai Jun was extremely sad about Fu Xie's death, and felt a little relieved to know that his son was alive. When Gai Yin came back, he saw the extraordinary-looking Fu Qian with his own eyes, and was surprised. Gai Jun and Fu Xie had seen this when they were both serving in the capital.
We met him a few years ago. He was still young at that time and was no different from an ordinary boy. Unexpectedly, after two years of absence, he would develop great wisdom and extraordinary insights.
Gai Jun was overjoyed. He thought that Fu Qian was young but had amazing talents. He wanted to keep him by his side and raise him on Fu Xie's behalf, so he asked the governor Fu Cheng about his intentions.
Fu Cheng was unwilling from the bottom of his heart. He was joking. Fu's surname is the most wealthy family in Beidi County. How could he let others take care of his own children? When word spread, others thought that Beidi's Fu family was mean and could not tolerate orphans. Gai Jun was Fu Chengzhi.
Jun, Fu Cheng couldn't refuse directly, so he took advantage of Fu Qian's lack of wisdom and asked for his opinion. He expected that a child would definitely choose his family. However, Fu Qian decided to follow Gai Jun without even thinking about it. Fu Cheng smiled bitterly.
It is true that a mute cannot tell how hard it is to eat Coptis chinensis.
Gai Jun fell in love with Fu Gan even more. He took him and Ma Chao with him all day long, even to work, and regarded him as his own. When he was chasing Xianbei, Ma Chao sneaked into the team without telling Ma Teng, which made Gai Jun dumbfounded.
Afterwards, he refused to leave. Although Ma Teng was reluctant to let his eldest son leave him, he urgently needed to make up for the rift with Gai Jun, so he agreed.
This time, he successfully annihilated the invading Xianbei people and won the title of King Xianbei and his company. Emperor Liu Hong was very happy and celebrated for several days. Zhang Xiu, Gai Guan, and Pang De worshiped him as Captain Bi Liangshi, and Ma Teng made him the capital.
After Ting Hou Gai Jun worked hard, Ma Teng might be able to go a step further and become a Zhonglang General, but he did not do it. Now he has many captains and captains under his command, and the Zhonglang General is only Gai Yin. If
Ma Teng jumped up and stood side by side with Gai Yin, fearing that there would be more troubles in the future.
Gai Yin, the captain of the bandit lieutenant, Yang Aruo, the captain of the heroic cavalry, Guan Yu, the captain of Beidi County, Huang Zhong, the captain of the dead soldiers, Ma Teng, the agricultural captain, plus the newly promoted captain Zhang Xiu of the broken soldiers, and Gai Guan, the captain of the Pinglu army.
, Cavalry Commander Pang De. Eight are worth two thousand stones. Among them, Gai Yin, Yang Aruo, and Ma Teng all have the title of Marquis of Ting. Not to mention outsiders, even Gai Jun himself finds them too eye-catching.
Sure enough, not long after, his father Gai Xun and his teacher Ma Rixi wrote letters one after another, saying that His Majesty has been paying special attention to the North recently. Yuan Shao even bluntly said that someone wanted him to return to Beijing. This person was naturally referring to the Fufeng Geng family, and he suppressed it, but the other party
He has not given up, but is dormant for the time being. Yuan Shao estimates that he cannot be suppressed by strong pressure. After all, this matter is in line with His Majesty's wishes. He will definitely leave the Northland this year and next.
Gai Jun never wanted the direct lineage he had carefully cultivated to fall into disintegration. He often climbed up to the city and looked to the north. That was the Qiang land. With his prestige among the Xianling Qiang, he could let the Xianling Qiang "rebellion", thus delaying the whole process.
Years time. The problem is that there are still two years before Dong Zhuo comes to Beijing, and "Qiang rebellion" can only be used once and for all, and using it frequently will make people suspicious. He can only pray that the court will not leave him alone this year, and postpone it until next year, and take the initiative
The power was back in his hands.
Because the registered population of Beidi County exceeds 100,000, there is a quota for filial piety and integrity every year. Gai Jun selected the children of the Fu family in Beidi last year. After all, Beidi County was in dire need at that time and urgently needed the power of the wealthy Fu family. This year
Who should this quota be given to? Looking around the north, he found no talent worthy of his precious filial piety quota.
Gai Jun then turned his attention away from the Northland and looked at the world. Today, there is no explicit rule that the prefect must recommend local people. In the past, Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, snatched the Xiaolian quota that took three years to wait for in his hometown of Dunhuang. He did have some thoughts in his heart.
Two candidates: Jia Xu and Xun Yu, the top figures of the Three Kingdoms who have interacted with him in his life. The latter has already served as an official in Yingchuan, and now he holds the post of Chief Bo. Although the Chief Bo is not as good as the five official posts, the postal supervisor, the meritorious officer and other positions.
Xun Yu was prominent, but he was a close confidant of the prefect. In addition, Xun Yu had a good background, so he would be promoted as Xiaolian by the county within a few years. Jia Xu was currently watching the world with cold eyes at home. Gai Jun thought it would be a good idea to find him out, no matter what Jia Xu
Yes or no, it will be difficult for me to distance myself from Gai Jun, the master of the matter, in this life.
"I really want to see what my fellow disciple looks like when he receives the appointment..." A graceful arc appeared at the corner of Gai Jun's mouth.
Last year, the Xianbei people invaded, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil. Tens of thousands of houses were reduced to nothing. However, the high mountains and ridges along the Nishui River lacked everything except century-old trees. Gai Jun organized tens of thousands of young men to go deep into the mountains and cut down many of them.
There were countless good trees, and we rebuilt our homes. Then we sent tens of thousands of people to work day and night to expand the water conservancy project. After a lot of work, the spring plowing in the fourth year of Zhongping (187 AD) began. With the experience of the previous year, in fact, as long as
Just follow the example of the gourd and draw the scoop, but Gai Jun was worried and followed him from beginning to end.
--------------------------
Wuwei County, Guzang, Jia Zhai.
Jia Xu paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, chanting in his mouth: "There are three hundred insects, man is the leader, and the nature of heaven and earth, man is precious, and his knowledge is also valuable. Wang Zhongren's words are wonderful, but..."
"Master, I'm so happy, so happy..."
Jia Xu turned around and looked at the door. He saw an old servant standing outside the door, with a face that couldn't hide his joy, and asked, "What's the happy event?"
The old slave straightened his waist and said loudly: "Master has been promoted to be filial and honest."
Jia Xu looked slightly surprised. He immediately excluded Wuwei. Wuwei has a population of less than 100,000. It only takes two years to have a place for filial piety and integrity. It was already passed last year. Who is it? Jia Xu narrowed his eyes.
Only a small seam remains.
"It's the Lord of Beidi County."
"Gai Shehu?" Jia Xu was surprised. He guessed no less than ten people, but he didn't guess Gai Jun. In fact, he had only met Gai Jun twice, once in Chencang and once at the Yuan Mansion banquet, and they had no more than ten conversations.
In other words, why would he recommend him? Is it just because of his relationship with the same disciple? Or is it recommended by Yan Jun?
"I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out." Jia Xu shook his head and said. He asked himself that his ability to grasp people's hearts was unparalleled in the world, but he couldn't guess what Gai Jun meant. Not being able to figure it out didn't stop Jia Xu from making a choice. He decided to accept it and become an official.
Who wants to stay in their hometown, say goodbye to their wife and children that day, and set off by car the next day?
The messenger came from Anding. Jia Xu asked him if he encountered any danger on the way. The messenger said with lingering fear that he was almost killed by Qiang Hu. Jia Xu thought about it and decided to take the Jincheng road. The messenger was immediately confused. Anding was
It was dangerous, but after all, it was not yet death, but Jincheng County was the nest of rebels, and they could not go there. Neither of them could convince the other, so they parted ways. If the messenger knew that he was going there, he would be killed by the Qiang Hu knife. I wonder if he would
Regret your current decision?
As soon as they crossed the Yellow River and reached the other side, the rebel soldiers inspected them closely. After interrogating several people, they held their spears and shouted to Jia Xu's master and servant: "Stop, what are you doing?"
The coachman's face was pale and his hands were shaking. There were official documents in his owner's package. Once discovered by the other party, his life would be in danger.
Jia Xu's face did not change as he raised his voice and said, "I am an old official of Huang Fujun, the former prefect of Jiuquan, and I have come here to seek refuge with you."
The soldiers looked confused. Not far away, a general dressed as a Han man came up and said, "What evidence do you have to prove that you are Huang Fujun's former official?"
Jia Xu said: "It's useless to talk more. Take me to see Mr. Huang as soon as possible."
The Han general was startled for a moment, but he did not expect that the other party was still very aggressive and said: "Huang Fujun is not in Jincheng at the moment, but in Hanyang."
Jia Xu said anxiously: "Then you send me to Hanyang quickly."
The last doubt in the Han general's mind disappeared. He shook his head and said, "We cannot leave this place lightly."
"Now that the war is in chaos, what should I do if I encounter robbers? No, you must send me away." Jia Xu seemed to really think that he was Huang Yan's old official, clinging to the shore and refusing to leave, insisting that the Han generals give him
The Han general was exhausted by the few escorts, so he had no choice but to obey and sent five people to escort him along the way.
From Jincheng down to Hanyang, Jia Xu went in and out of the inn. He had good food and drinks. He arrived at the gate of Ji County and waved his soldiers away. The soldiers turned around and ran away as if they had received a general amnesty. This guy really doesn't know how to be polite.
, serving them like their own servants.
When the guards saw that Jia Xu had commanded the soldiers, they did not dare to stop him. Jia Xu entered the city smoothly. Of course, he would not go to Huang Yan. The two of them did not know each other. He found a hotel to sleep in and then drove out of the city the next day.
Head to the residence of the Yan family in Hanyang.
Hanyang experienced repeated wars, and the big families recruited troops to defend themselves. The Yan family was no exception. The Yan family soldiers stopped Jia Xu's carriage and asked, "May I ask who I am looking for?"
Jia Xu opened the car curtain, looked around, and asked: "Is Yan Jun, the master of your family, here?"
"exist."
Jia Xu smiled and said, "Please tell me that Wuwei Jia Wenhe is here to pay homage to Lord Yan."
"Wuwei Jia Wenhe..." The soldier muttered this name and turned back to the door. Within half a moment, Yan Zhong came quickly and said with a loud smile: "We have been apart for more than ten years. How is Wenhe?"
"Yan Jun." Jia Xu stood beside the carriage and bowed respectfully.
Yan Zhong grabbed Jia Xu's hand and pulled him towards the door. As he walked, he said, "Where are you from?"
"hometown."
Yan Zhong stopped and said in surprise: "The Jincheng soldiers didn't stop them?"
"Jincheng soldiers?" A flash of color flashed through the depths of Jia Xu's eyes, and he said: "I say he is an old official of the Huangfu Lord in Jiuquan, so he must be let go."
Yan Zhong laughed loudly when he heard this and said bluntly: "What will you do if you really run into Huang Fujun in Jincheng?"
Jia Xu shook his head and said: "I have learned from the merchants that Huang Fujun is not in Jincheng, so that's why I said this. Even if I met Huang Fujun in Hanyang, I just said that he was a disciple of Yan Jun. The soldiers did not know Yan Jun, and Huang Fujun
How could you not recognize me?"
"Wen Heguo has a lot of talents." Yan Zhong took Jia Xu into the hall, ordered the servants to serve the food and drinks and disperse.
The two of them were pushing glasses at the wine table. Jia Xu asked each other about Liangzhou stories, and Yan Zhong came one by one. After three drinks, Yan Zhong suddenly asked: "Does Wen He think the Korean date can be made?"
Jia Xu held the wine glass in his hand, and after a long conversation, he basically understood what Yan Zhong was thinking, and said slowly: "Han Wen said that his people's means are long and military is short. It may be possible to separate a state, but it will be difficult to take any further steps."
Yan Zhong's expression was uncertain, and he let out a long sigh for a long time.
Yan Zhong did not ask Jia Xu about the purpose of his trip, but talked with him for three days, and then ordered ten soldiers to protect Jia Xu on the road. Jia Xu borrowed the road from Anding and turned back to Zuofengyi.
