Wei and Jin cooks

Zhao Hanzhang asked someone to fetch Xie Yao's sword. She also picked a sword and looked at Xie Yao, "Master Xie is willing to teach me."

Xie Yao was a little nervous, but he didn't show it on his face. He nodded, and when he saw Zhao Hanzhang standing still, he took the lead in attacking.

Zhao Hanzhang raised his hand and blocked it with a clanging sound. He pressed the sword and stabbed him diagonally. A sharp thrust of the sword can kill him...

Xie Yao raised his hand and knocked her sword aside, turned over and flew up, leaping out of her attack range.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled slightly, and just as he landed, the sword in his hand was already attacking. Xie Yao immediately struck back. The two of them were going back and forth, and they exchanged seven or eight blows in an instant, but the offensive and defensive momentum was reversed.

Xie Jiao saw that Zhao Hanzhang had not used all her strength. After all, she had only used one hand until now.

Xie Yao was very skilled in swordsmanship. If he wanted to delay the attack for a longer period of time, as long as he used up more of her energy, he would still have the possibility of winning.

Zhao Hanzhang could see that Xie Yao defended more than he attacked, but she really wanted to compete with him, so she was getting familiar with his playing style and didn't want to win quickly.

He didn't want to win quickly, but he still wanted to win. After seeing Xie Yao start to use repeated sword moves, Zhao Hanzhang sped up his attack. His originally slow posture slumped and he quickly started to grab the ground with his right foot. Kicking, her body half-crouched and turned quickly, she instantly moved from in front of him to the side and behind him. The sword first hit his wrist that was stabbing back, and then she lifted it up and pressed the blade against his neck.

Feeling the cold touch of the sword blade, Xie Yao broke out in cold sweat.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled slightly, put away his sword, cupped his fists and said, "I'm offended."

Xie Jie quickly returned the favor with cupped fists, "Thank you, General, for showing mercy."

Yang Yi and others who were watching were all excited, and they all gathered around to praise him.

Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand and said: "Don't waste your riding, archery and martial arts skills. In the future, the Jin Dynasty will still need your protection."

Yang Yi and others responded respectfully.

Tinghe came over and said, "Girl, Madam has arrived and is waiting to see Young Master Yang in the garden."

Zhao Hanzhang asked Yang Yi and others to visit Wang, leaving Xie Jiao alone.

Yang Yi and others couldn't help but glance at Xie Jiao and bowed to retreat.

Why did Zhao Hanzhang treat Xie Jie differently?

Xie Jie himself was thinking about this issue.

Zhao Hanzhang inserted the sword back and handed it to the bodyguard behind him, and said with a smile: "Are you wondering why I am so different to Mr. Xie?"

Xie Jiao said: "Yes, please give me some advice, General."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Among all the young masters, only Mr. Xie has the experience of being an official and he is older. The fact that you have been an official shows that your thoughts are more mature than theirs, you are familiar with political affairs, and you have a good understanding of the relationship between the people of your family and country." A deeper view; being older means that you have more experience, will not be easily fooled, and have your own judgment. As long as I use you, you can do things immediately. And if they want to be an official, at least they still have to It takes a year, or even longer, to change and adapt.”

Xie Jiao was slightly stunned and asked: "Is this how the general uses me? I, I was once a confidant of King Langya, don't you suspect that I am a craftsman?"

Zhao Hanzhang said: "If you are a craftsman, then I hope King Langya will let more craftsmen like you come over. I am in urgent need of officials like you."

She smiled and said: "I use you to govern the people. As a gentleman like you, even if you are loyal to King Langya, will you put the people in trouble for him?"

When Xie Yan heard this, his heart was filled with complicated emotions. He was moved by the joy of being recognized and praised, but also felt a touch of sourness. Even he didn't understand what the complicated emotions in his heart were, so he heard her continue: "As long as you I am worthy of the people under my rule. I will not delve into whether the superior is loyal to me or to King Langya."

"So Mr. Xie is willing to become an official?" Zhao Hanzhang stopped and looked at him with a smile.

Xie Yao clenched the sword in his hand. Although he followed his brother's orders and came to the Central Plains, he still had a trace of hesitation deep in his heart. After all, his relationship with King Langya was really good.

But at this time, the hesitation in his heart disappeared, Xie Yao bowed and saluted, and said in a deep voice: "Jiao will definitely live up to his mission!"

When Zhao Hanzhang saw his promise, he couldn't help laughing. He helped him up and said, "Okay, you have a good rest tomorrow. You will go to the Yamen the day after tomorrow. Come to the palace to receive your official certificate."

She smiled and said: "Anding County is short of a county governor. You go to Anding County to take up the post."

Xie Jiao was surprised, he just became the county guard?

His brother is just a long history now.

"General, is this too fast?"

"I'm not happy, I'm not happy," Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "I know that young scholars are not only capable of martial arts, but also have the ability to manage civil affairs. Anding County is having a very hard time now. There has been a famine in Yongzhou for several years. I'm afraid it's less than 100,000 yuan."

"If you go there, I'm afraid you will have a very difficult time. I wonder if you are afraid?"

Xie Jie solemnly said: "Don't worry, General. I saw what the refugees were like when I was escaping all the way south. I also suffered hardships and even saw people eating each other. Not only did I have to fight against hunger and cold, but I also had to guard against bandits and bandits." We need to be wary of the rioters and the refugee teams, no matter how difficult it is, it won’t be as difficult as before.”

"Now that the Central Plains is stable and there are no more wars, the people can settle down and farm. As long as the general is willing to give us time to recuperate, I think the people of Anding County will be able to overcome the difficulties!"

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and said: "Yongzhou is one of the three states that can be exempted from oral taxes and regulations, and the land rent is also halved. I believe that Commander Xie can lead them out of the food shortage and protect Anding County."

To the north of Anding County are the Qiang and Hu. There are constant internal battles between the Qiang and Hu, so the friction with Yongzhou has always been a small fight, but no one can predict the future. Moreover, the Qiang and Hu area is the northern part of Shaanxi and originally belonged to Bingzhou. and part of Yongzhou.

When the country is strong and the people are strong, and the treasury has surplus money, she must take back that piece of money.

As for the Qiang people, how did they originally live in that area? She will let them survive there better, and avoid the current fight between tribes to kill each other for the leader.

Xie Jie was good at both civil and military affairs. King Langya had always used him for military duties, but the information Yuan Li sent back contained several political opinions he mentioned and some articles he had written. He was clearly a good person in governing the people.

His ability in managing civil affairs will not be worse than his military ability, so it would be too wasteful to only put him in the military.

If there is no war for the time being, the talents in the army can be cultivated slowly, but the talents for local governance cannot be pulled out at once and can only be dug from other places.

She didn't care whether Xie Jiao was sent by King Langya, she wished he could send her a few more people. The Central Plains and the Northland were so big, there were many places to arrange people.

Not only can their talents be used, but they can't get in touch with King Langya, or their interests can't be connected.

She believed that no matter what color their hearts were when they came, one day she would be able to turn them all into her bright red color.

It's too late today, see you tomorrow, I will update early tomorrow
