The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

This is to make up for May 5th.

——

When Xun Zhenlu saw Bo Lian, he said in his heart, "Today, I have the time, the right place, and the people. I can recruit heroes."

Just this morning, Xiao Xia had just collected the horses from the five pavilions. There were thirty horses in total. Except for the five horses left by Xun Zhen for personal use, the rest were handed over to Gao Su.

According to the calculation of 100,000 yuan per horse, Gao Su paid out the money first, giving Xun Zhen 2.5 million yuan in total, while Xiao Xia paid less than 1 million yuan in total to buy these 30 horses, that is to say, Through this transaction, Xun Zhen made a total of more than 1.5 million yuan. In addition to the reward for killing the thieves last year, he now has around two million dollars in his hands.

Recalling the scene of taking money from Gao Su in the morning, Xun Zhen couldn't help but sigh, even though she knew that the opportunity to make money by exploiting such a loophole was a rare opportunity in decades, she couldn't help but think: "No wonder the famous ZTE general Wu Han has become the pavilion chief. In a few years, you will be able to attract guests. Everything is inferior, only reading is high. No matter what business you do, it is still the fastest to get money when you are an official.”

——Wu Han, a native of Nanyang Wan, is a fellow of Wenpin, ranking second among the twenty-eight generals in Yuntai. Before he developed, he was the head of the pavilion in the county because of his poor family. In the last years of Wang Mang, not only was his family well-fed, but he also attracted many guests. Later, he had to flee to Yuyang because the guests violated the law, and then when he arrived at the time of Emperor Gengshi, because of fate, he finally soared into the sky.

——Not only Wu Han, but also another member of the 28 Yuntai Generals, who also served as the pavilion chief when he was young in the Tibetan Palace of Jiaxian County, Yingchuan. As we all know, Ting Chang is a very low-level position, but anyone with some status and money in the family will not take up this position (Xun Zhen is a pure exception). One can imagine that, when the world was in chaos, he was actually able to "lead the guests into the army of Xiajiang as a captain".

From this, it can be seen that, let alone a rank husband, even a humble position like the pavilion chief is easy to make money if you want to make money. The fact that power is greater than money is true in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, and there is no way to do it. Xun Zhen sighed slightly, took back her thoughts, stopped thinking about it, and still focused on "recruiting heroes".

He said a few words to Fashion, and said to Xiao Ren: "Go to Fanyang, call Wen Qian and Ayan back, and bring Chen Bao, Jiang Qin, Gao Kunzhong, and Su Jun, too. , I have something to tell them." - A while ago, Xun Zhen persuaded Gao Su to organize and practice his guests, and proposed that he could compete with his own "Fanyang Limin" in order to win the game. , He ordered Le Jin and Cheng Yan to go to Fanyang Pavilion two days ago to check on Limin's practice.

Xiaoren replied, "Yes." He had been under Xun Zhen's hands for a long time, and he gradually became familiar with Xun Zhen's temper. He knew that although he was gentle and elegant on the surface, he was actually a person who was resolute and resolute. , went to Fanyang Pavilion.

...

Xun Zhen smiled and said to the fashion: "Mingde, when are you going to take office?"

"I don't have anything to do at home, but I'm a village chief now, so I have to tell my teacher. After I tell my teacher, I'll go home and get some quilts for bedding, explain to my wife and son, and I can move in tonight. Go and live in the house!" According to the regulations, officials must live in the official house when they are working, and fashion is now a village chief, and naturally it is no exception.

"Okay. Then I'll wait for you tonight in the official residence!"

The fashion handed down and left, went to Yangyin to visit Xuanbo, and first told about Xun Zhen's decision to decide the case, and then reported the matter of being recommended by Xunzhen and serving as a county assistant.

When Xuan Bo first heard the words, he was quite surprised, and then he was relieved and said: "With Xunjun's family background and current reputation, it is really easy for him to recommend a person to be a county assistant. You can be valued by him and recommended by him, it is true. Fortunately for you, although this position is small, he is also your master, and you should never forget your kindness. In the future, you must do your best to assist him, and you must be diligent and not slack."

Fashion respectfully promises. Xuan Bo asked him a few words, and then asked, "When are you going to take office?"

"When I get home, I will explain a few words. I plan to move to the dormitory tonight."

Xuan Bo nodded and said, "That's how it should be. I won't delay you any more, just go home."

Fashion respectfully knelt down to the ground, rose to the ground, backed out of the hall, put on shoes at the door, and said goodbye to go home.

Apart from Xuan Bo, there were also his son Xuan Xian, his nephew Xuan Kang, Li Bo, Shi Nuo, Wang Cheng and other disciples in the hall. Except for Wang Cheng, everyone looked envious.

Seeing their expressions, Xuan Bo said, "Yan Ziyun: 'Ze pheasant pecks every ten steps, drinks every hundred steps, and does not pray for animals like Fan Zhong', is this what Xun Jun's recipe is? Xun Jun does not use his own family background, He took the initiative to invite him out and served as the leader of Ye Ting. He was promoted to Youzhi in less than half a year. He is trying to make a way out of his own ability!  …, the last time he captured the third clan, Ziyun (Wang Cheng) said He wanted to kill because he violated the law, and I just heard Mingde talk about his case in the field. Why did he want to kill because of the law? If it really was because of the law, how would he forgive the pavilion who received the loot and ignore it? How could the prison be sentenced to justice in the Spring and Autumn Period? ..., alas, the swallow bird does not know the ambition of Honghu."

- Yanzi, namely Zhuangzi. In order to avoid the Ming emperor's taboo, the Han people changed "zhuang" to "strict". "The pheasant pecks every ten steps, drinks every hundred steps, and does not pray to the animals in Fanzhong" means: a pheasant on the swamp can eat a mouthful of food in ten steps, and drink a mouthful of water in a hundred steps, but he does not pray at all. kept in a cage. Zhuangzi's original intention was to say "free and easy", but when he put it in Xuanbo, it became a praise for Xun Zhen's down-to-earth and self-reliance. This was also the first time he officially praised Xun Zhen in front of his disciples.

When discussing whether it was right or wrong for Xun Zhen to kill the third clan, Wang Cheng was the most staunchly opposed. At this time, I heard the teacher compare him to a "Swallow Sparrow", his face flushed, his neck stuck, and he said loudly, "Swallow Sparrow. I don’t know Honghu’s ambition, but how does Honghu know the ambition of Yanque? Although Yanque, I don’t admire Honghu. The Master said: 'The way is different, and we don't plan for each other'." , and just won the crown soon, young and vigorous. After listening to his words, everyone burst into laughter when they saw his blushing face.

Xuan Bo also laughed and said, "Ziyun, among my disciples, you are the youngest, but all students think that you are the first in talent. You are very talented, but you have less experience."

After all, Wang Cheng did not dare to talk back to the teacher. Although he refused to accept it, he stopped talking. He sat down on the edge and said to himself, "The Master said: 'The gentleman is compared to righteousness, and the villain is compared to profit'. How can you do anything for the purpose? Of course, I know that Xun Jun first fabricated charges and executed the third clan, and now he uses the scriptures to break the prison and declare the purpose of benevolence. That's it. I can understand his purpose, but I absolutely don't agree with his actions! My husband has always taught me to be a 'Gentleman Confucian', but how can I praise a 'Little Confucian' like Xun Jun so much? "It's incomprehensible.

Xuan Xian clicked his tongue and said: "Mingde is really lucky. Just after he resigned from the ward, he was picked up by Xun Jun and raised as a village chief. It can be said that he has become a dragon." Said to Xuan Kang, Li Bo, and Snow like a joke. , "Last time we met Xunjun, we went with Mingde. Now Xunjun has recommended Mingde as the village chief. You said, if there is a chance, will he also recommend us?"

Li Boben also disapproved of Xun Zhen's reckless killing of the third clan, but in order to become an official, he was ordered by his teacher before, and he went to visit Xun Zhen with the fashion and others~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After seeing Xun Zhen again, he changed his mind. The bad impression of Xun Zhen completely fell under the demeanor of Xun Zhen's "graceful, elegant and well-informed" disciples. At this time, seeing the fashion "jumping over the Dragon Gate", it is impossible to say that he has no ideas, but after all, he is the oldest under Xuanbo's family, in his forties, and he will not show his thoughts like Wang Cheng. Just smiled and didn't answer.

There were no imperial examinations in the Han and Han Dynasties, and appointment to office was entirely based on recommendation. Against such a background, it was difficult and difficult for underprivileged children to enter office. Although the Xiangzuo only fights for food and is a low-ranking official, his rank in the village is only lower than that of Xiang Youzhi (Qianfu), which is already a very good starting point in the eyes of these "cold scholars".

Xuankang and Shi Nuo were different, just like most of the enterprising Han Chinese, they did not hide their desire for fame and fame, and said in unison: "If your husband can't do things in a way that can't be sloppy, the county of Mu Dazhou will also be fine. When you bring a black sash of 6 feet and wear a black rhinoceros horn seal, enter and leave the temple, majestic, and be the slaughter of a hundred miles! In this way, I will not be born in vain, my parents will support me, and my teacher will teach me." . If you can't be the prefect of 2,000 stone, at least you should be the county magistrate in charge of a hundred miles of land.

Including Xuan Xian and Li Bo, everyone made up their minds: "From now on, we will go to Xunjun's door more and visit often."

Xuanbo naturally hoped that his disciples would be promising and successful, so he stroked his beard and smiled with relief. Only Wang Cheng, sitting alone in a corner, unhappy, seems to be out of tune with everyone.

...

Fashion came home and was packing when someone knocked on the door.

He pushed open the door and was discharged from the hospital, and saw Xu Zhong: "Junqing? Why are you here?"

Xu Zhong took out a piece of gold cake and handed it to him: "Your lord will take office, and your salary will not be released until next month. Xun Jun specially ordered me to give it to you to help your family."
