"Brother Xiao, why haven't you set off for Xianyang yet?"
Among the Xiao family, Long and the other five people were almost dying of anxiety.
When he came to Peixian County this time, Prime Minister Liu's intention was very clear. He was just a helper in killing Liu Ji, the head of the Sishui pavilion. The most important thing was to let Xiao He go to Xianyang!
"Brother Long, I, Xiao He, have no power and power, and I don't know any high-ranking people. Although I think I have some knowledge, how can I compete for official positions in such a court?"
Xiao He smiled bitterly and shook his head.
When he was studying at a young age, he thought that if he had talent and knowledge, he could realize his dream of supporting the country.
but...
Now that he is more than 20 years old, it would be too naive for him to know the depth of officialdom.
Not to mention anything else, the chief officials of Peixian County alone need to have a good relationship with the powerful local gentry.
Didn’t you see that Mrs. Liu already scolded the government office for the death of the ruffian Liu Laosan?
With such an officialdom, what's the use of Xiao He?
Upon hearing this, Long Wu was so angry that he wanted to slap himself in the mouth!
What Xiao He said is not unreasonable! Not to mention the officialdom, even in a place like the military that values actual military merit, you need a background if you want to get a fourth-level, non-renewable military merit title!
The next level up, the fifth-class military officer, is the real title. Without a good family background, it is simply impossible!
"Why does Brother Long care so much about Xiao? Is it really because of fellow countrymen?"
Xiao He looked at Long Wu's anxious face and couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.
Unlike Wang Gang, Long Wu was not so calm, and the expression on his face could not be hidden from Xiao He at all!
Long Wu gritted his teeth and stared at Xiao He, thinking that Brother Wang was on the run now!
If this mission fails, then Brother Wang...
Rather than Brother Wang being in danger, it would be better for him to be scolded by Prime Minister Liu, even if he loses his head, it doesn't matter!
"Brother Xiao, let me tell the truth!"
"We are all from Peixian County. You also know that I, Long Wu, have been brave and fierce in the village since I was a child, and I am not good at speaking. Now I am working as a Jin Yiwei in front of Prime Minister Liu."
"Although it may be that we are returning home in fine clothes, in fact, when Brother Wang Gang and I return to Pei County this time, we have official business to attend to!"
Long Wu gritted his teeth and said.
After saying these words, Xiao He was slightly startled, and then nodded slowly.
He had also speculated about this matter: "But to kill Liu Ji, the head of the Sishui pavilion? Although this person is a rural ruffian, why did the Xianyang government send you two to kill this person? And he broke down the door to kill him and fled outside. ?”
Xiao He was very smart and immediately connected what happened last night.
"Yes and no. Although Liu Ji was ordered to be killed by Prime Minister Liu, he could only assassinate him. Moreover, Brother Wang Gang has arranged everything and will never let him be wronged."
"Prime Minister Liu asked us to come to Pei County. The most important task is...you!"
"Brother Xiao!"
Long Wu said, looking directly at Xiao He.
"I?"
After saying these words, Xiao He was stunned!
No matter how smart he was, he would never have imagined that the prime minister of a country far away in Xianyang would actually know that he was the chief official of a small county government!
"Brother Long, don't talk and laugh!"
Xiao He smiled bitterly and waved his hand.
"Brother Xiao, this is true!"
"Liu Xiang said that among the three hundred Jinyi Guards, none of them are as important as you, Brother Xiao!"
"Xiang Liu also said that what kind of changes are going on in the Qin Dynasty now? In the turmoil, only Brother Xiao can help the country and save the big house from collapse..."
Seeing that Xiao He didn't believe it, Long Wuyi hurriedly spoke.
He himself didn't have much talent, and being able to write his own name was considered great. How could he memorize Liu Bai's mysterious and difficult words without missing a word?
"The government is in turmoil and the building is about to collapse?"
Xiao He frowned slightly.
What Long Wu said was in line with his expectations! If the six countries are unified, there will definitely be no peace and stability in the court.
As for the building that is about to collapse... Why does Prime Minister Liu have such confidence in himself?
"Brother Xiao! Just believe me! I...I will kneel down for you!"
Long Wu felt anxious and knelt down to Xiao He: "By the way, Liu Xiang also said that if you still have doubts about Brother Xiao, just use one sentence to persuade Brother Xiao."
"I'll recite it to you."
"Mr. Xiao is a great talent. Would you like to leave his name in history? Would you like to win laurels in Xianyang Palace and sing his name in Qilin Palace? Would you like to become the mainstay of our Qin Dynasty and the civil servants?"
Long Wu repeated Liu Bai's words without any fluctuation at all, as if he was counting 'one, two, three'.
However...
These words made Xiao He's pupils tremble suddenly!
Leaving a name in history is what scholars dream of!
Winning laurels in Xianyang Palace means that he is deeply trusted by His Majesty.
Singing his name in the Qilin Hall? In the Great Qin Qilin Hall, only those with great talents and great achievements have always been honored!
As for the mainstay of literary ministers...Does Prime Minister Liu also recognize his talent as a literary minister?
At this moment, my thoughts that were already deep in thought... are gradually getting hotter!
Which man can refuse to leave his name in the history books?
"Brother Xiao, don't force me! If you really don't go...I...I...I..."
Long Wu saw the heavy expression on Xiao He's face, and immediately pulled out his sword in a hurry!
What he meant to say was: I will kill myself directly in front of you.
But when I get anxious, my tongue will get knotted. Instead, I couldn't say anything for a long time.
"Okay! Brother Long, put the knife down!"
"Since Prime Minister Liu appreciates me, no matter how good or bad Xiao He is, he will naturally go to Xianyang to express his gratitude!"
Xiao He was also startled and spoke quickly.
"Just wait while I pack my luggage and set off immediately."
Xiao He calmly took half a step back to pack his luggage.
Seeing Xiao He's agreement, Long Wu finally took a breath and put down the knife.
As if he remembered something, he said to Xiao He: "By the way! Brother Xiao, Prime Minister Liu said that I hope you can take the people you admire and go to Xianyang together."
Now that it's been leaked, that's all.
After saying these words, Xiao He stagnated slightly, then turned around and bowed in the direction of Xianyang!
It wasn't until now that he truly believed Long Wu's words!
I also believed that Liu Bai really appreciated him!
Love the house and the bird!
This word is absolutely correct!
....
"Ah sneeze!"
"Who is scolding me?"
"Master Fusu, are you your sixth brother?"
In the carriage, Liu Bai suddenly felt his nose itching.
According to common sense, someone will either praise or criticize!
And he, Liu Bai, is very self-aware, and the probability of scolding him is definitely higher than the probability of praising him.
"Master Liu... Even though my sixth brother has a wild temper, he also knows how to respect his master..."
The corner of Fusu's mouth twitched, and he reluctantly spoke to defend Ying Che.
"Haha, that's what my teacher said, Master Fusu, don't take it to heart."
Liu Bai laughed and realized that it was indeed a bit bad for him to call his brother a bastard in front of his brother:
"Sir, I wonder what's the matter with you coming to my house to see me mysteriously?"
Fusu smiled softly and bowed to Liu Bai: "The official examination for the imperial court is about to begin. Fusu kindly invites you, sir, to come to our Juxian Hall to view talents and select them for the imperial court."
