Linjiang City fell into chaos in just a moment. Xiao Zhong first lied about military fraud, and Xie Yuan sent nearly a thousand officers and soldiers in the city to prevent the invasion of the bandits. Then Xiao Yong, Xiao Yi and Xiao Ren set up a fire in the county magistrate's mansion, which made Xie Yuan unable to take care of himself and even recruited people everywhere to put out the fire.
As a result, only a few people were left in the prison in Linjiang City to guard the door. Guo Jia and Gan Ning rushed in with three-foot Qingfeng in hand, and rescued the Jinfan thief with lightning speed.
Yongchuan is in the west, so most of the defenders in the city are standing at the west gate of Linjiang City. In contrast, the defenders of the east gate are withering, Guo Jia and Gan Ning lead the Jinfan bandits to quickly kill the east gate of the city and flee.
On the banks of the river, Gan Ning and his brothers who met again after the disaster were filled with emotion, but they should not stay for a long time. Although Xie Yuan was a ignorant county magistrate, it was not impossible for him to send someone to pursue such a major event as robbing prison. Therefore, Gan Ning bid farewell to his brothers and planned to leave with Guo Jia and travel around.
"Brother! What do you mean? Are you going to abandon our brothers and leave?" Jinfan thief was famous and had extraordinary friendship. Now everyone was shocked when they heard that Gan Ning was leaving.
Gan Ning sighed and said, "I have been fighting with my brothers over the years and are chivalrous and righteous. Although I have achieved some results in punishing evil and eliminating evil, I have never been able to achieve great things. Today, I want to kill the thief of the Lord of the Lord, but I have caused the brothers to suffer in prison. I learned from my pain and wanted to find the heroic ruler of the world and devote myself to the tent to help the world."
The Jinfan thieves immediately expressed their willingness to follow Gan Ning and join the hero, but Gan Ning waved his hand to refuse. First, he had no purpose yet, and second, this person's attitude of being a large crowd always had too big goals, which would only increase right and wrong.
Everyone had no choice but to make an appointment with Gan Ning to separate for the time being. If Gan Ning summoned him in the future, even if he could go thousands or thousands of miles, he would definitely come to join him.
On the water of the Rainy River, a small boat headed eastward along the river.
Guo Jia and Gan Ning stood side by side, looking at the Jinfan thief who was gradually moving away and reluctantly on the shore, Guo Jia was moved and chanted loudly:
Kill one person in ten steps, and do not leave a thousand miles away. After the matter, I will leave with my clothes and hide my name.
...
Two days later, Guo Jia and his party had left Yizhou and entered the boundary of Jingzhou.
After getting ashore in Jinping, Guo Jia looked at Gan Ning who had not put down the book for the past two days and joked: "Why is Gan Xingba, the Jinfan thief who laughed at me and was sore and rotten scholars, now he is studying hard all day long? Could it be that he is afraid that someone in Jingzhou will recognize you, so he pretends to be a scholar to confuse people's eyes and ears?"
Gan Ning scratched his head and said awkwardly: "Fengxiao, I will tell you that since I left Linjiang, I admire Fengxiao's talent from the bottom of my heart. So I can't read this book."
If it were Gan Ning before, he would never have looked at Guo Jia, who looked like a gentle scholar on the surface. At first, he made friends with Guo Jia because of the fact that Guo Jia was burning Changshe and a hero who bought his life with one dollar. However, in Linjiang City, he, the Jinfan thief Qu Shuai, who had outstanding martial arts skills, was at a loss when facing the situation where his brothers were trapped in prison. However, Guo Jia used a little trick and made Linjiang City frustrated and rescued the Jinfan thieves and the heroes. Later, Gan Ning deeply understood the gap between him and Guo Jia.
Guo Jia smiled and took the four brothers of the Xiao family and Gan Ning to the east.
Jingzhou was not peaceful at this time, and there were rebellions in all counties. The person who led the troops to suppress the rebellion was Sun Jian, who had just been named Marquis of Wucheng by the court.
"This Wucheng Hou is so heroic? He suppressed the rebellion of the Quxing in one month, and then crossed the border to quickly suppress the rebellions of the counties in Jingzhou. It seems that this person is beyond the reach of everyone." Gan Ning sighed with emotion.
Along the way, what Guo Jia and his group heard the most was Sun Jian and Jingzhou Mu Wang Rui's deeds suppressing the rebellion together, but the people praised Sun Jian's greatness, which basically had nothing to do with Wang Rui.
Guo Jia said to Gan Ning: "In terms of the courage of leading the army to fight, Xingba and Sun Jian are equal. Apart from this, Sun Jian is no better than Xingba."
Gan Ning didn't believe it, shook her head and said nothing.
A few days later, Guo Jia and his party came to Changsha City. Before entering the city, they happened to have a good show.
The thirteen-year-old young general was wearing armor, carrying a long halberd, a sword on his waist, and riding a white horse under Changsha City, looking down at the guilty man.
There were countless onlookers, and Guo Jia and Gan Ning also joined in and saw the scene under the city clearly. Guo Jia couldn't help but feel shocked.
More than a hundred people kneeled down at the city. Judging from their clothes, they were definitely wealthy families. Li Zi stood by the side with his knife in his hand, and waved his knife down just after a command.
After inspecting the young general, he sneered and said to the surroundings: "Look clearly, this is the outcome of going against my Sun family! Kill!"
What a decisive word kill!
Although Guo Jia was a murderer, he still turned his head away, and even Gan Ning's expression changed slightly.
The young general raised a head and showed it to the public. He was mighty and said coldly: "This is the head of the head of the Tian family in Changsha. He dared to slander my father in public, and even sent servants to assassinate my father Wucheng Hou! This is his fate! From then on, there will be no Tian family in Changsha City! If anyone dares to slander my father and wants to be ill-treated against my father, first ask if I Sun Ce's sword and long halberd agree! Hum!"
The person who heard it changed his face and looked down, not daring to look at the young Sun Ce. But Guo Jia looked at Sun Ce thoughtfully. Sun Ce also noticed Guo Jia looked at him with his head raised and looked at him. Guo Jia saw him glaring at him angrily, sneered, and turned around and left.
After entering Changsha City, he rested in a restaurant for a while, Gan Ning was drinking silently, with a gloomy face.
Guo Jia knew that he had something to do, so he didn't ask, and he also drank with him now.
After drinking for three rounds, Gan Ning couldn't help but ask Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, when we walked all the way from Lingling County, we heard the reputation of Wu Chenghou's bravery and bravery. Why did we hear the name of Wu Chenghou's bloody murderous and unkind reputation when we arrived in Changsha, the capital of Wu Chenghou's ruler, and heard the name of Wu Chenghou's cruelty?"
Guo Jia could really answer this question for him, so he said: "Scholars, peasants, industry and commerce, gentry rank first, gentry have status, monopolize official career, and what the people hear are all spoken by gentry. Therefore, gentry controls public opinion. It is true that gentry marquis Wucheng Hou quells rebellion and bravery everywhere in Jingzhou. The gentry marquis such as Lingling County and Wuling County are grateful to Wucheng Hou, because marquis Wucheng Hou came to quell the rebellion and rescue them. Therefore, these The reputation of Wucheng Hou was circulated in the local area. When Wucheng Hou served as the prefect of Changsha, he must have the same power as the gentry in Changsha City and was incompatible. Today, what you and I saw outside the city, the eldest son of Wucheng Hou Ce slaughtered the Tian clan, which shows that it was obvious. Therefore, Wucheng Hou did not win the hearts of the gentry in Changsha City, so the gentry in Changsha City would spread rumors of Wucheng Hou's blood and cruelty. As for whether the facts were true, it would not matter."
Gan Ning looked confused and asked Guo Jia again: "Wang Xiao, isn't this official just to eliminate evil and promote good? If the people killed by Wu Cheng Hou are the ones that should be killed, then he did nothing wrong. Now the voice of the people in Changsha City does not seem to support Wu Cheng Hou."
After drinking a sip of wine, Guo Jia shook his head slightly and said, "Xingba, you think too naively. Wu Chenghou is the same as you think. Those who deserve to die should be killed. But the aristocratic families in the world are in unison. Wu Chenghou slaughtered the aristocratic families so blatantly. Will other gentry in Changsha City be afraid? Yes! Wu Chenghou is decisive and decisive in killing, who is not afraid? But because they are afraid of Wu Chenghou, they embrace a group of opposing Wu Chenghou, incite the people to be dissatisfied with Wu Chenghou, and secretly plan to overthrow Wu Chenghou."
Clang
Gan Ning threw the wine bowl on the table and said angrily: "Do you just let the aristocratic family be domineering? You should kill but not, can you just swallow your anger?"
Guo Jia drank a mouthful of wine without hesitation and chuckled: "Xingba, if you are the prefect of Changsha City, what should you do?"
"Well? I don't know." Gan Ning felt uncomfortable, and always felt a sense of evil fire. He turned his eyes and asked, "Fengxiao, what about you? If you are the prefect of Changsha, what about you?"
Guo Jia smiled and said, "If you kill, you will uproot the aristocratic family. Killing one to warn a hundred will only backfire. If you don't kill, then cooperate with the aristocratic family and govern Changsha together. Anyway, the prefects did this."
After hearing this, Gan Ning asked tentatively: "Then Fengxiao, are you going to kill or not?"
Guo Jia was stunned, looked at Gan Ning with a look of expectation, shook his head and said, "Don't kill."
Gan Ning's face suddenly darkened, she turned her head unhappily and muttered, "I've seen you wrongly."
Guo Jia was amused and cried, so he had to explain: "Xingba, Xingba, what did you really want me to say about you? Can you see a person with a bold saying? You just want to hear me kill, but I can tell you that the prefect of this county will never be able to kill aristocratic families. Let me ask you, if I kill all the aristocratic families in Changsha County, what would happen to other surrounding counties? They would go to the prefect of the prefecture to sue me together, and the prefecture had no choice but to attack me. And if I was the prefect of Jingzhou, I could not be able to move the aristocratic families, why? Because the aristocratic families in other states would incite the prefecture to launch troops to attack me. However, if I occupy at least three parts of the land in the world, let alone kill all the aristocratic families, it would be okay to dominate one side."
When Gan Ning heard this, he pondered for a while and said ashamedly: "It is reasonable to speak filial piety and has a great vision and great knowledge, and I am deeply impressed."
Immediately, Gan Ning poured wine to Guo Jia, saying unhappily: "Your filial piety was punished by three cups. I compared someone with Sun Jian before, but it turned out that he was saying that someone was brave but not wise. Although it was the truth, he was just unhappy. If you punished him three cups of apologize, you would not pursue the matter."
After hearing this, Guo Jia laughed, drank three glasses of wine, and then continued to drink with Gan Ning.
As for the issue of aristocratic families, Guo Jia was not exaggerated because of his deep persecution. During these years, Guo Jia often wondered how Cao Wei died and how Shu Han died. As for Sun Wu, in the end, it was a general trend except for Sun Hao's tyrannical abuse.
It was not accidental that Cao Wei was usurped by the Sima family, but that the Sima family became a representative of the gentry and replaced it.
The reason why Shu Han was destroyed was that the internal gentry was devoted to Cao Wei. Why? Because the internal gentry of Shu Han had unevenly divided the profits and had many contradictions, Cao Wei gave the gentry the greatest power and interests. In the end, the Three Kingdoms returned to Jin rather than the Sima family who took over the country, it was better to say that the gentry ruled the world.
Guo Jia did not want to see such an ending. On the one hand, the people were even more miserable under such a regime, but on the other hand, such a ruling class was not strong enough. First, the Eight Kings Rebellion, then the Five Barbarians Invaded China, and the war in China was raging, which was almost in danger of being exhausted.
