"Are you sure you want to go?"
"Definitely leaving."
When Zhang Sheng returned to the meeting hall, he saw Shitou who had just returned from the county temple and asked him what he was concerned about. Shitou's answer made him a little more frustrated.
After the summer harvest, Jusue Lei Gongda ended his daily tour of the city with all his clothes on.
Originally, Zhang Sheng didn't take it seriously. Who hasn't been slacking off at work?
Unexpectedly, Lin You, who was sent to supervise and guard the county temple, came back with news that Jushou Jugongda was depressed after Lingding got drunk, and his wife seemed to be packing up her belongings and intending to leave.
Jushu left?
As far as the Anping Army was concerned, Zhang Sheng didn't care whether he stayed or left. He and Jugongda were two different people, and they were destined not to stir the pot, so he left as soon as he left.
As far as Guangchang is concerned, Zhang Sheng really doesn't want this official shield to leave so early.
With Ju Gongda as the county king here, at least the court can hold its nose and coax it, saying that Guangchang is under the control of the court; if Ju Gongda leaves, those people in Baoqi court who are overfed and have nothing to do will use this as an excuse. , when the time comes, the imperial court may not necessarily have soldiers to conquer this bandit, but the harassment from state and county soldiers and horses will also make me tireless.
Jugongda, it is still a bit early to leave at this time. Zhang Sheng really hopes that this person can stay for another year and a half, so as to buy a little more time for him to mature.
"Commander, I'm bringing someone with me. He knows us and we can't let him go."
Everyone followed into the meeting hall. When Yang Mazi saw Zhang Sheng circling on the ground with a frown on his face, he immediately stood up to show off.
"Chief Yang, don't be ridiculous. That Jugongda is more useful alive than dead. We can save a lot of trouble if this person is alive." Before Zhang Sheng could speak, Zhou Chuang stopped Yang Mazi.
With Yang Mazi interfering like this, Zhang Sheng retracted his thoughts. He didn't expect that Zhou Chuang's overall situation was quite good.
"Shitou, Lao Chuang, let's go to the county temple." Things had to be solved, and Zhang Sheng wanted to make another effort.
"Brother Sheng..." Shitou muttered a few times, wanting to say something, but couldn't. The purpose of Zhang Sheng letting him go was to retain Ju Sue from the side. He felt guilty because he was not capable enough and failed to retain the person.
"Walking and talking, this kind of thing should be done sooner rather than later."
Zhang Sheng cast a comforting look at Shi Shi and took the lead out of the meeting hall...
In the backyard of the official temple, the old slave stood guard outside the main hall. The dim light shined through the door and illuminated the mottled ground in front of the hall. The old slave took a look at the lonely figures in the hall and couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
"Mr. Lang, can you not leave?" Mrs. Ju looked at the trace of sadness on her husband's face and asked lightly.
"Let's go back. We're close to home. It's time to go back and take a look."
Jushuo glanced at his wife and the sleepy child, and tried to speak calmly.
"Mr. Lang, let's go..."
Mrs. Ju murmured at the corner of her mouth and could no longer say the next words.
This step is the end of the official career.
Jushou knew clearly in his mind what his wife had not said.
Why don't you leave? What result is waiting for you?
During the summer harvest, the scene he saw on the top of the city really frightened him.
In today's world, the imperial court is corrupt and powerful officials are in power. Troubled times are not far away. All over the land of China, wars are everywhere. Thousands of people are mourning and struggling to survive, but tens of thousands of people in this vast country are laughing. .
Can Quan Huan endure it?
Can the rich family endure it?
Can the emperor endure it?
How can the scholar family tolerate it?
No matter how beautiful the scenery in Guangchang is, and no matter how maverick the traitor Zhang Sheng is, disaster is already not far away.
To enjoy this scenery at the cost of your family's lives? The price is too high, just don’t look at it.
"Xijun, it's late at night, it's time for Hu'er to rest..."
Jushou hid his thoughts, he didn't want his wife to worry.
After all, Jushou didn't get enough rest. A knock on the door in the dark night interrupted their night chat between husband and wife...
In the main hall of the county temple, Zhang Sheng saw Jushou Jugongda. He was less elegant and calmer, and his long and thin face was full of sadness.
"Juxian Jun, I'm sorry for bothering you late at night."
Zhang Sheng looked Ju Shou up and down and cupped his fists slightly as a courtesy.
"Since Zhang Langjun knows how to do it, why is he still so good at it?"
Jushou is neither humble nor arrogant.
Okay, just be willing to talk.
Zhang Sheng cursed in his heart. Compared with the last time when he closed his eyes and ignored him, Ju Gongda has changed a lot.
"Haha, it's impossible to come. I heard that the county prince wanted to leave Guangchang, so I had to come and have a look. I have an appointment with the county prince in advance. I will live my life, and the county prince will be free to live his own life. I now order, The county king wants to leave Guangchang, I don’t know why? Is it because someone is disrespectful to the county king? Or is it that the necessary supplies are not provided in time? "
Zhang Sheng took a detour and wanted to explore the purpose of Ju Shou's departure.
"Zhang Langjun, if I remember correctly, you and I have agreed that I can stay or leave as I please."
Jushou counterattacked with an army and easily neutralized Zhang Sheng's intention to explore.
"Ah, hahaha, how can the county monarch be so careless? Identity tokens should be carried with you, how can you just throw them away randomly?" Zhang Sheng pointed to the county monarch's seal placed on the table and changed the topic again.
"Zhang Langjun, I cannot share your worries for you, and I am ashamed of your kindness; I cannot appease anyone, and I am ashamed of the people. By holding it, I am ashamed of the sages and have no face to face my ancestors. It is better not to take it."
After finishing the conversation, Jushou looked at the seal on the table with shameful eyes and remained speechless.
Listening to his words and watching his actions, it seems that he has decided to leave.
Things always have to be faced, it's just sooner or later. What should come is better to let it come. The flowers grown in the greenhouse will definitely not be able to withstand the wind and rain. Of course, they will not be able to see the rainbow after the wind and rain. .
That’s it!
It's going to rain and my mother wants to get married, so let it be.
Thinking of this, Zhang Sheng fisted his fist and said, "I wish the county gentleman a safe journey."
There was no point in talking anymore. Zhang Sheng said goodbye and turned around to leave the main hall.
Looking at Zhang Sheng's back, Jushou thought about what he had seen and heard in these days. He really couldn't bear the thought of tens of thousands of people in Guangchang turning into dead souls under the sword of guns and swords in ignorance. After Zhang Sheng stepped out of the main hall, For a moment, Jushou thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, thank you Zhang Langjun for your kind words. Since you took over Guangchang, you have slaughtered Gao, Zhang, Chen and other big families, and restored peace to the people of Guangchang. I admire you greatly. Langjun built the Yicang and borrowed grain." Even though I can't help you with porridge, having you here in Guangchang is really a blessing to the people."
Zilu?
interesting!
After hearing Jusuke's words, Zhang Sheng paused and thought about what Jusuke had just said, and then he grasped the key point.
Ju Shou, he still has a little conscience in his heart.
At this time, Zhang Sheng already knew the real reason why Ju Shou left Guangchang.
Wise people don't stand behind dangerous walls.
No wonder he is ranked at the top of the list of counselors in the Three Kingdoms...
