Jushou is the proud son of heaven. Even according to later generations, he is probably the second generation of officials and the second generation of wealth. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Now this arrogant man wants to see himself, a thief who is not even as good as a foot-picking man. This That's rare.
See you, must see you!
I want to see what his intentions are.
He is in his early thirties, wearing a linen jacket, a leather crown on his head, and black shoes on his feet. He has a slender figure and a thin face. He is less elegant and more imperceptibly arrogant.
Zhang Sheng looked at the person in front of him up and down for a long time. He always felt that if he replaced the leather Jinxian crown with a white scarf, it would be more suitable and more natural for Ju Shou's outfit at this time.
After thinking about it for a moment, Zhang Sheng could guess Ju Shou's purpose of wearing this crown from the crown, and he couldn't help but smile in his heart.
At this time, the common people, who had been stupidly educated by the sour Confucianists, were respectful to scholars from the bottom of their hearts. The fact that Jushou wore a mandarin robe and wore a virtuous crown on his head was to show his gang of thieves that he was a scholar, so that the ants could The thieves ignored his identity as a court official.
It turns out that he is also afraid of death!
"Professor, I took the liberty of visiting and disturbing the general."
Jushou watched the unscrupulous thief in front of him look at him unscrupulously, and a hint of anger slowly rose in his heart. However, when he thought of the purpose of his coming here, he forced himself to suppress that little anger into his chest and abdomen, and opened his mouth to blow Zhang Sheng's Attention was drawn.
"Hahahaha, Mr. Juxian is too polite. I can't be called a general. I can only be regarded as a little thief at best. As for disturbing me, it doesn't count. Even if you and I don't see each other today, I believe that in a few days, you and I will be together." We will meet in Guangchang City, but I don’t know what the Lord Ju County’s purpose is in coming to see me in such a hurry?”
After all, he is a famous person and knows how to be patient, which is much better than Zhao Yun's raw melon and egg.
Hearing Jushou's address to him, he did not put on a high-spirited air but deliberately lowered his attitude. Zhang Sheng cursed in his heart, and responded with a haha, but in his words He secretly made clear his determination to capture Guangchang.
"Professor, I'm here especially for the general."
Jushou pretended not to understand what Zhang Sheng meant, and took the initiative to ignore Zhang Sheng's identity as a bandit and explained his purpose.
"Oh, hehe, Mr. Juxian, you might as well tell me why you came here for me."
Idle time is idle time, and Zhang Sheng doesn't mind chatting with Jushu, a so-called celebrity, to pass the time.
"The general is a young and talented man who is brave and decisive, gathers and leads troops, and has strict discipline. The general has such a strong army, so he should serve the country. However, the general led the crowd to attack the counties and ravage the countryside. It is really a mistake. Today, Professor, I came to see the general. I really can’t bear that the general is in trouble without knowing it. If the general can be confused and know his way back, and stop fighting, Professor is willing to recommend the general to the court." Jushou first gave Zhang Sheng a hat according to his own ideas. He picked up a high hat and began to persuade him to stop fighting.
Unfortunately, Jugongda didn't know that the plain-looking thief in front of him was beyond his ability to fool with just a few words.
"I dare to ask the Lord of Ju County, where are the secretaries, officials, county captains and others in the county? Why is it that a simple matter of striking off the troops requires the Lord of Ju County to go there personally?"
Recommend?
Can you recommend a yarn?
You yourself have been ignored by others, and you still use such nonsense to coax a three-year-old child? I'm afraid you are sincere in recommending me to get a knife, right?
Zhang Sheng did not answer Jushu's words, but poked at his vital point seemingly unintentionally, and poked his lungs. He wanted to see how long Jushu could endure?
"General, the moon waxes and wanes, the water waxes and wanes, and so do people." Hearing Zhang Sheng's rebuke, Jushou thought for a moment and resolved the accusation with a single word.
Zhang Sheng stared into Ju Shou's eyes and spoke again, "Juxian Lord, I have heard a saying that once you serve as an official, you will benefit a party. Now, although the county Lord has accepted the appointment from the court, he lies in the county temple all day long. How can we ignore the fact that the people under our rule are being exploited, ignore the people who were kidnapped as slaves and exchange slaves for horses, and ignore the thieves who colluded with foreigners to harass me all day long? "What's the point?"
If you want to argue forcefully, then argue enough.
Zhang Sheng didn't blame Jushu for being unfaithful, because he knew the dangers of foolish loyalty. However, as a local official, you cannot but be responsible for the people under your rule. You can be unfaithful, you can be selfish, and you can pretend to be noble. However, since you occupy the latrine, you have to shit. This is the most basic principle.
Facing Zhang Sheng's questioning, Jushou's expression was obviously solemn for a long time. He thought for a long time and did not speak for a long time.
Looking at Ju Shou's expression, Zhang Sheng suddenly lost interest.
Public opinion is in the hands of those people, and power is also in the hands of others. In an era when even such idiotic behavior as lying on the ice trying to cover up the ice and catch carp can be praised, no matter how much you say, what's the use? ?
So what if you can't argue with a judge? There are still ten, hundreds, thousands, thousands of celebrities and sages waiting for him. Do I have to defend them one by one?
For a moment, Zhang Sheng had lost all intention of arguing with Ju Shou.
"Juxian Lord, it's not difficult for me to stop the war. We people always have to eat and survive. Now, since the County Lord is in front of you, it's just right. I have my eye on Guangchang. From now on, we will Let’s take root here and live our lives. If the county king really wants us to stop fighting, then please go back and open the city gate. When we take control of Guangchang, we will naturally stop fighting. At the same time, I can make a promise that we will enter the city. There will be no burning, killing, and looting of the people in the city in the future. Of course, County Lord, you can continue to stay in the county temple to cultivate your character as your County Lord as usual, or you can take your family members and leave in the name of County Lord. Guangchang, let’s go and have some fun in the land of China.”
Zhang Sheng thought about it for a moment and was not interested in making any more detours with Ju Shou, so he directly made his attitude clear.
Regarding Jushou, Zhang Sheng felt that if he could really open the city gate as he requested so that his men would bleed less, he could let him live.
Hearing the true purpose of Zhang Sheng's trip, Ju Shou felt both pain and joy in his heart.
It pains me that my career as an official is coming to an end temporarily. The county king my family has sought for me has come to an end, and I have been convicted of losing the city and the land.
What about joy? My wife and children should be safe for the time being.
"Juxian Lord, I suggest you open the city and continue to be your Xiaoyao County Lord, so that you and I can live in peace, and the people in the city will be spared the danger of swords and soldiers. Of course, county affairs cannot be neglected. I will send people to serve as county captains, assistants, and officials to help you manage Guangchang County. County Lord, please think about it seriously. I have something else to do, so I'm sorry."
Zhang Sheng finished speaking and turned to leave.
He really wanted Jushou to stay in the name of the county king. In this way, he would be able to save a lot of trouble for himself, a bandit, and at least give an explanation to the court, which is now constantly at war with thieves. It allows them to save themselves from the conquest of the bandits and devote their limited troops to other states and counties that are raising the anti-flag. In this way, you can free up your hands to train troops, strengthen the army, and plan for development.
Building high walls, hoarding food, and secretly accumulating strength to develop oneself is the right way, and false reputation is absolutely unacceptable...
