Please ask me to be the emperor

After Zhang Sanbai left, Zhang Shun asked Zhang Wuhao to talk again.

On the one hand, in order to get closer to the relationship between the monarch and his subjects, on the other hand, he tried to see if he could get something useful out of this fellow. In the end, it turned out that this fellow was really a fool. After staying in the guard for so long, he didn't learn any useful military knowledge except to learn some intrigues.

Zhang Shun was originally disappointed and wanted him to quit. But he didn't expect this guy to have an idea and put forward a suggestion of recruiting talents. It turns out that Zhang Shun has only been intriguing and gathering troops all day long since Hejue Mengjin, but it is a wise man who is always worried about something, and forgets to find talents.

Zhang Shun secretly made a mistake. When he played Romance of the Three Kingdoms before, no matter which city he went to, he always searched for talents first. Now in reality, I actually forgot. He quickly wrote down the Order of Seeking Talents, copied several copies himself, and asked the soldiers to post them.

Wen said:

I heard that within ten steps, there must be fragrant grass; within ten rooms, there must be talented men. There is a general named Zhang Wenyuan who is thirsty for talents. If there are those with outstanding articles and strategies, or those with high martial arts who are willing to join the army, they will be rewarded with generous salary. If anyone provides useful information, he will be rewarded with a bucket of grain; if he has a skill, he will give his family grain to survive the famine depending on his ability.

Order the soldiers to post it at the gate of the county government office and other intersections, teahouses and other lively places in the county.

It didn't take long before someone reported that there was a great talent here, named "Crazy Immortal Taoist", surnamed Wang, named Duo, and styled Juezhi. He lives in Shuanghuaili, Mengjin, where the old Mengjin City is located. Because of the flood, they are now taking refuge in the city. Zhang Shun hurriedly took Wukong and his personal guards to visit.

This Wang Duo is also a member of the Mengjin family. During the disaster, the old house was not flooded, but was flooded with water, making it difficult to live in. He himself has a temporary residence in Mengjin, and lives here temporarily.

When Zhang Shun came to the door, he was reciting poems and composing Fu, lamenting the tragic situation of the people of Mengjin in the flood. When the servant told him that there was a bandit leader visiting outside, he was taken aback and lost interest in reciting poems. He was terrified, but there was nothing he could do.

Although his family is a big family, it was a big family in the Taiping period, not a big family after being looted by bandits a few years later. Afterwards, the territory of Henan was plagued by military disasters for a long time, and various places built forts and villages one after another, and practiced village bravery, almost no doubt about the bandits. At that time, the thieves will follow the thieves, and the officials will follow the officials, but the money and food will not be lost, and there will be many servants.

Not to mention that Zhang Shun brought the hungry people here, even Li Zicheng established Dashun, there is no good way to take them for the time being. Of course, at this time, it was their big family Wang Duo who had no choice. Therefore, Wang Duo had no choice but to arrange for the female family members in the family to order them to commit suicide in case of accident, so as not to be humiliated by the thieves.

Wang Duo himself was in his forties, and looked very good-looking, with a big beard and a loose brocade dress, which gave him the air of an artist of later generations. When Zhang Shun saw him, he had a good impression of him, and first chatted with him with a pleasant face, chatting with him about family affairs, so as to reassure him.

Saying something like "How many children are there?" "Are you by my side?"

Zhang Shun saw that the way was wrong, so he changed his words and asked: "How many acres of land at home? Is there any surplus food?" Then Wang Duo was even more frightened, his body trembled like a sieve, and he dared not speak.

Zhang Shun patted his forehead helplessly, wasn't I quite good at talking before, why now I'm doing my homework, as if I want to ransack my family? But he didn't know that after he raised his army, he attacked the county seat and beheaded the county magistrate and county officials. His reputation had already spread throughout the county, and it was enough to stop children from crying at night.

Zhang Shun had no choice but to say bluntly: "I have heard your name for a long time, would you like to follow me so that I can listen to your teachings every day?"

"Countrymen, who only know how to write and compose poems, are a courtier, and dare not bother the king to ask you." Wang Duo resisted his fear and refused.

"Huh?!" Zhang Shun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, not showing off his anger.

Wang Duo was so frightened that he couldn't bear it anymore, he quickly knelt down, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and only said: "Death crime, death crime!"

"How do you see my face?" Zhang Shun couldn't laugh or cry, so he had to resort to the "True Dragon Son of Heaven" weapon.

"Your Majesty walks like a tiger, not angry and majestic, you are a man of heaven!" Anyway, flattery does not require money, Wang Duo said all the good things, "However, I have no talent to help the world. Only when the King rules the world, can I sing praises. Sing poems of praise."

Zhang Shun was a little depressed when he heard it. Isn't it always said in online novels that "when the tiger's body shakes, it bows when it takes its head"? The passive effect of bringing a "true dragon emperor" is not good? Originally Zhang Shun wanted to imitate Song Jiang and give him a chance to push him to the top, but seeing that his posture was quite low and he was a weak scholar, he couldn't find the palm of his hand anyway, so after talking a few more words, he hurriedly ended the visit and left for the time being. County government.

At this time, several people came to inform the talents, but they said that they were nearby talents. For example, Dengfeng Li Jiyu, Wenxian Chen Changlan, Jiang Fa and so on. They were all talents who could not be recruited for the time being, and Zhang Shun didn't mind, as usual, he gave food to the passers-by to show his sincerity in recruiting talents.

At noon, Zhang Shun called all the leaders for dinner. Zhang Shun remembered that Zhao Yutou, Chen Jindou, Zhang Sanbai and others were all from nearby, so he asked them: "I heard that Wang Duo of Mengjin is a high-ranking scholar, why not follow suit, what about him? Do you have a plan?"

Among all the people, Chen Jindou only heard about it a little bit, so he didn't know how deep he was. Zhang Sanbai is just an artist, I have never heard of it. Only Zhao Yutou knows a thing or two about the many literati and poets who come and go in the boat. He said: "I have seen this person before, and he is quite talented. It is said that he was a priest in the imperial mausoleum, and soon he was promoted to a lecturer in the Imperial Academy. He sent an envoy to Lu'an Mansion in Shanxi Province, but I don't know what it is."

"When he finished his mission, he returned to his hometown. When he returned, he happened to be carrying an old man's boat, so there was a relationship. His hometown was originally in Shuanghuai in Mengjin, but when it developed later, he moved into the old city of Mengjin. Later, the old city was relocated, but his family did not come along with the relocation.”

Zhang Shun was a little confused when he heard this, so he asked, "What is the job of this Imperial Academy attendant, and what expertise does this person have?"

Zhao Yutou thought about it for a long time, and said helplessly: "The old man doesn't know what the job of the Imperial Academy is. Listening to the words of the scholars, it seems that he is a storyteller for the emperor. As for talent, I only heard that his calligraphy and painting are worth thousands of gold. Can recite poems and compose Fu. If the lord wants to, he can coerce him by force and force him to submit."

Zhang Shun glanced at Zhao Yutou in surprise, he didn't expect that this guy looked like an old farmer, but his methods were quite cruel. However, this person is a scribe, who reads sage books for nothing, but has no sage advice. Even if he recruits people into the group, it is useless.

Hearing this, Zhang Shun wanted to give up soliciting, but suddenly remembered his return from Lu'an mansion. With the mentality of looking for peas in quail crops, chopping lean meat from the legs of egrets, and chopping fat in the belly of mosquitoes, Zhang Shun took the opportunity to learn about the situation in Shanxi. Although Wang Duo himself does not have much talent in governance, he has quite a lot of knowledge, so he can collect some information from him. After Zhang Shun finished eating, he went to worship Wang Duo again.

Wang Duo had just finished eating at home, and when he heard that the bandit leader was coming again, he was almost so frightened that he was about to have a heart attack. When I met Zhang Shun, apart from insisting that he dare not "turn to the thief", he also told Zhang Shun honestly when he asked about other things.

It turned out that this person was ordered to go to Lu'an Mansion in March this year, but it was not a big deal. One was to check the production of copperware in Lu'an Mansion, the other was to arrange the military preparations of Luzhou Guards, and the third was to visit King Shen.

Speaking of King Shen, it is also interesting, his fiefdom is not in Shenyang, but in Lu'an Mansion. It turned out that after Zhu Di, the king of Yan, was "on the side of the Qing emperor", he was quite suspicious of his brothers, fearing that they would also give him a "side of the Qing emperor". In particular, the original King Shen was entrusted in Shenyang to control the soldiers and horses. Zhu Di felt uneasy, so he deprived him of his military power and changed his seal to Lu'an Mansion.

Later, it was passed down through the lineage, and it has been two or three hundred years. The blood relationship between the royal family and the royal family has gradually become estranged and has long been indifferent. Of course, although he was already indifferent, there was some relationship after all. This time the old King Shen was seriously ill, so Wang Duo was sent by the palace to express his condolences.

Zhang Shun liked it, and asked about the terrain and route of Shanxi, and Wang Duo answered them one by one.

When he entered Shanxi, he entered Liaozhou through Jingxing, and then went to Lu'an Mansion. And when the mission is over, go down to Zezhou, pass through Tianjing Pass, go to Huaiqing Mansion, and then cross the river in Mengjin and return.

Zhang Shun was good at flirting and chatting, and he wanted to flatter him. After the two chatted for a short time, Wang Duo became wary, and then he gradually forgot the true face of the "thief leader" opposite him, and he answered every question. When he talks about what he is proud of, he often adds his own drama, talking about the mountains, rivers, terrain and customs of Zelu Erzhou. This Wang Duo is indeed worthy of being a celebrity, his speech and behavior are extraordinary.

Zhang Shun was even happier after hearing this, and asked about the checkpoints along the way, and the long, narrow and tortuous road. Wang Duo answered one by one, and even took out the poems, calligraphy and paintings he made along the way, asking Zhang Shun to appreciate them.

Seeing this, Zhang Shun was full of praise, and bluntly said that Wang Duo, an insane Taoist, is better than Li Du in poetry and Gu Wu in painting. After some flattery, Zhang pointed out by the way that it is better to see once than to hear a hundred times, and I wonder if there is a map to see it.

This Wang Duo is not a talent in internal affairs, how can there be such a thing. So Zhang asked him to paint and calligraphy by the way. At this time, the maps are simple, and most of them are not fine. Wang Duo himself is a master of painting, so he did his part and asked his servants to grind the ink and color, and paint and paint with him himself.

This so-called map is actually somewhat similar to the schematic diagram of the later scenic spots, and there is no scale. However, Zhang Shun still felt as if he had found a treasure, and even acted like a good boy when he got it cheaply, and borrowed his books on the art of war and martial arts from Wang Duo. Where is this Wang Duo? Fortunately, he sent someone to look it up, but found a copy of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Wei Liao Zi" that he bought when he was young and gave it to Zhang Shun.

So by the way, Zhang bid farewell to Wang Duo and returned home full of rewards. At this moment Wang Duo was still thinking about it, and when he had a cup of tea and calmed down, he realized that this person was a ferocious thief, he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, and shouted, "Evil door, this thief can use demon magic!"

Because this chapter was written in a hurry at noon, it was specially revised. In addition, ask for tickets and collections, thank you
