Li Jing said: "As one of the kings of China, your Majesty has a heavy army and has been waging wars all year round. As a result, the wars are endless. After the army passes, there are thorns everywhere."
It turned out that this was what he wanted to say.
Xiao Yuan's eyes were sharp and he stared at him deeply: "The old gentleman is a doctor, why discuss war."
Seeing this situation, Li Jing was shocked in his heart, but he showed no fear on his face and said: "Is your Majesty ready to kill?"
"There is a misunderstanding, sir."
Xiao Yuan withdrew his gaze and said: "The old gentleman hangs a pot to help the world, saves the dying and heals the wounded. How can I kill a famous doctor?"
Hearing this, Li Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "In ancient times, the word "king" was created, with three horizontal lines and one vertical line. Three horizontal lines refer to the people of heaven and earth, and one vertical line refers to those who connect to the world and people. They are called kings. Since the king is As a monarch, you should sympathize with the people, comfort the people, and care about the common people..."
This old man really has a lot of things to do, but Xiao Yuan is not surprised that a person like him can make such remarks.
Then he said: "Since the old gentleman wants to discuss it, I will tell you something."
"Before the rise of Qin, the world's feudal lords were divided, and various countries were fighting for hegemony. They were at war for years. When did the wars stop? How many years have they been fighting? More than two hundred years!"
"Over the past two hundred years, mountains and rivers have been shattered, and so many people have been displaced, in order to dry up all things!"
"But my king's war only lasted for a few years, and he defeated the Qiang Jin and wiped out the Ni Yan!"
"Old sir, can you take a look and see if there is still war happening in Jin?"
"The people there are living and working in peace and contentment. If it weren't for me, the people of Jin would still be suffering from the war!"
"Everyone in the world says that this king is a tyrant. Let a tyrant be a tyrant! They only see the surface. Don't they know that only when the world is unified can there truly be no war!"
"The nations are fighting for hegemony for a day, and then they are at war with each other. This is not my fault!"
He finished speaking in one breath. After Li Jing heard this, he didn't respond for a long time, then he cupped his hands and saluted seriously:
"The monarch has a long-term vision. From this point of view, I can't argue with the king."
"Old sir, there is no need to be polite." Xiao Yuan's voice became calmer: "I hope you can consider what I said before."
"This." Li Jing said hesitantly: "When the matter is completed and the disciple's journey is over, I will visit the king."
After he finished speaking, the girl immediately received the message: "Yes, Your Highness the King of Qin, if the master doesn't go then, I still want to visit the Palace of the King of Qin."
"Oh? How is your medical skill? Can you serve as a medical officer?" Xiao Yuan found it interesting.
The girl said: "The King of Qin looks down on people, I will soon be better than my old master."
What he said made Xiao Yuan laugh heartily again: "Okay, then it's a deal."
"It's a deal." The girl immediately received it.
When Xiao Yuan thought about it, the palace really needed a female medical officer with superb medical skills, which would make certain things much easier.
Afterwards, Li Jing and the girl began to say goodbye, and Xiao Yuan treated her with courtesy and personally sent her out of the house.
After this episode, a few days later, Jia You also came to ask for a meeting and told Xiao Yuan that he had something to do and was ready to leave.
After hearing the news, Xiao Yuan was shocked. He stood up hurriedly and walked to Jia You: "Sir, why is this? But is this king negligent?"
This is a rare counselor, and Xiao Yuan is of course reluctant to part with him.
When Jia You heard this, he quickly said: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry. But after arriving at Jinling, I asked someone to send a letter to my home in Huizhou, asking about the current situation. Today I received a reply from my brother, saying that my mother is critically ill. I have to Come back."
"Ah? This..." Xiao Yuan was a little anxious.
But my mother is about to die of illness. As a son, he should rush back to fulfill his filial piety, and it is not easy for him to stop her.
Jia You saluted again: "I hope your Majesty will grant you permission——"
Xiao Yuan became a little confused. If such a counselor falls into the hands of the enemy, it will be a big trouble!
After thinking about it, he immediately shouted: "Come here!"
Hearing this, Jia You couldn't help but feel nervous. He is such a smart person. If one of his eyelashes is pulled out, they will all be empty, so he will naturally think of something.
In fact, he could run away secretly, but Xiao Yuan treated him very politely, so he came to say goodbye in person.
Now it seems that there may be danger.
Although he was thinking about this, his face remained calm.
After hearing Xiao Yuan's shout, Xu Hu immediately walked in, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty."
"Quick! Bring some gold and silver." Xiao Yuan didn't talk nonsense.
"Promise!" Xu Hu took the order and left.
Not long after, a tray of gold was brought.
Xiao Yuan stepped forward, collected them himself, bundled them together, tied them up, and then stuffed them into Jia You's arms:
"Sir, it's a long way to go. It will definitely be useful to bring some extra expenses. Although I am reluctant to leave you, your mother is critically ill, so how can I stop you."
He was telling the truth. He had had murderous intentions just now, but they passed away briefly because he didn't want to lose the talent of Jia You.
When the latter heard this, he was obviously moved. He thought that he might not be able to leave, but he didn't expect that King Qin was so thoughtful.
He did not show any pretense. After receiving the gold, he said seriously: "Your Majesty, I will definitely rush back within three months after returning to my hometown! I am willing to provide advice to your Majesty for the rest of my life and help my king conquer the world!"
He had directly changed his title and called himself a minister. Xiao Yuan was undoubtedly excited at the sight: "The matter is urgent. Sir, please set off as soon as possible."
"Yes! Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will go and come back quickly."
Jia You first bowed respectfully, and then said: "But before I leave, I have one more thing to say."
"Sir, please speak."
Jia You said: "Xu Rong is brave and good at fighting. He can be of great use. No matter what his tribe has done, the king should use him."
"In addition, Youzhou will be the battlefield of life and death between our army and the Liang army. Judging from the territory of the Liang Kingdom, as long as the king can capture Youzhou, the Liang Kingdom will have no room for maneuver!"
After hearing this, Xiao Yuan said seriously: "I have written down what you said, sir."
"Your Majesty has great talent and great strategy. This battle will definitely wipe out the Liang Kingdom and pacify the North." Jia You saluted again.
That afternoon, outside the county magistrate's mansion.
Xiao Yuan personally selected a good horse for Jia You. After watching him get on the horse, he worriedly warned:
"Although the war has subsided in Huizhou, there are still some bandits and others. Sir, please be careful when you go and take care of yourself along the way."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I'm leaving." Jia You handed over his hand.
"Go." Xiao Yuan waved his sleeves.
The sound of horse hooves sounded and gradually faded away.
Looking at his back, Xu Hu couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, Huizhou is close to the south. Once Mr. Jia leaves, with his ability, if he doesn't come back, what if he goes to Wu Chu to serve King Wu? Is good."
"That's not it." Xiao Yuan replied confidently, then turned around and returned to the Sheriff's Mansion.
