Just when everyone was worried, Zhang Liang somehow managed to get recommended to Shi Wenyanbo, the director of the general administration. After being summoned once, he successfully entered the Military Intelligence Department of the general administration and took charge of the military affairs of the Jinyang garrison.
The people who surrendered to Henan, headed by Xu Shiji, felt a little relieved. At this time, the appointments were also issued one after another. The people who surrendered to Henan, who were as big as a pile of sand, suddenly dispersed and went their separate ways.
The person who fell on Xu Shiji's head was a minor official in the general manager's office. The superior officer was Zhang Niangong, a member of the Bingcao army. He was the son of the Zhang family in Yunnei. His seniority could put many people to shame.
Xu Shiji, who had commanded a large army and was given Zhai Rang, was valued by Li Mi. Xu Shiji, who had been entrusted with important tasks many times, naturally would not see it in his eyes. The resentment in his heart was not the slightest. He thought that if he was so slow to treat a hero, what big things could he accomplish?
Of course, now that he had no soldiers or generals, Xu Shiji could only boast that he was full of tricks, but he could only sigh inwardly that he couldn't help himself.
In fact, he was similar to Li Mi. Li Mi also regarded himself as very cold, so he struggled for a while in Chang'an and was immediately tricked into losing his head.
So, when you gain power, you are a hero. When you lose your power, you are a bear. There are really not many people in this world who can climb out of trouble and make a comeback.
Xu Shiji was still young, and although he had a lot of experience, he still didn't quite understand the true meaning of the word perseverance.
Zhang Liang, who climbed out from the bottom, obviously sees and thinks clearly better than him.
After spending a winter in Jinyang, Xu Shiji got tired of staying in this place. No matter how he looked at it, it was very unpleasant. He tried to leave the city a few times, but he didn't realize that someone was following him. He already wanted to sneak away secretly.
Even if he doesn't find another place to go, he plans to quietly go back to his hometown in Henan to see his family and relatives.
Of course, this is not only because Henan is his hometown (not his ancestral home), but also because there are still some of his old memories in Luoyang today...
While we were walking, seven or eight children appeared out of nowhere, shouting incomprehensibly and running nearby.
This group of children with green and snot-covered faces, no real color at all on their faces, and tattered clothes, can be identified at a glance as the most common beggars in Jinyang City.
They are all orphans without parents, and no one is willing to take them in. They usually gather in temples and Taoist temples in various places in the city, survive the winter, and then rely on begging to survive.
Their lives were as worthless as ants in this war-torn season. When one winter came, monks and Taoists everywhere would have to report to the government how many corpses they would bury.
They obviously saw that these three people were extraordinary and wanted to come over to ask for a few copper coins.
However, seeing the three men riding tall horses and carrying knives at their waists, they all hesitated a little. They were afraid that if they came up to beg, they would be whipped a few times or cut off with their swords, so they had to stand firm.
Their lives are not valuable at all...
Xu Shiji ignored these children and just rode forward. This only boosted the children's courage. They followed them and refused to leave.
Not long after, several more people joined, and the number quickly exceeded ten.
Xu Shiji became a little impatient. The two guards scolded him repeatedly, which caused the children to cry out. The two guards did not dare to draw their swords and threaten them like they did when they were children in the south. The handling of murder cases here is definitely different from those in the south.
Xu Shiji grunted listlessly, took out a cloth bag from his sleeve, and threw it out, which immediately caused the children to rush to grab it.
The two guards looked at it with a bit of pain. This was not Wagang Village. Food and drinks cost money. The two fellow prisoners had not been to the prostitute village for a long time.
No matter what they were thinking, Xu Shiji had already brought his horse's reins and was ready to bypass these beggars and continue moving forward.
At this time, someone scolded, "You stupid thief, are you trying to cause trouble?"
