In July, Gongsun Xun, a member of the Da family in Liaodong (later known as Zuojin, Jinzhou District, Dalian), wearing a commoner and carrying an old beam crown, finally climbed ashore with a sallow complexion, and then immediately lay down on the dock and vomited acid water.
!
Unfortunately, the Bohai Sea is a well-known inland sea. They did not encounter any big winds or waves during this trip. The so-called winds were not strong and the waves were not high. Moreover, Yi Cong crawled out of the nests in Yanmen Mountain from Handang to Lougui,
Everyone is fine, but only Gongsun Xun, who grew up in western Liaoning, is so weird!
"Although I grew up in Beihai," Wang Xiu, the newcomer, was asked in turn by everyone because he was from Beihai, but he could only be at a loss. "But seasickness really varies from person to person.
With your body in such a condition, it would be better for you to avoid traveling by sea in the future, and there is nothing else you can do..."
Gongsun Xun, who finally lost his dizziness, waved his hands repeatedly to signal the other party not to talk any more. He didn't listen to a word now and just wanted to take a breather!
Wang Xiu also immediately shut up.
That's right, this Beihai Wangxiu was finally lured by Gongsun Xun, and he got it very easily... Why?
You know, as mentioned before, most of Gongsun Xun's subordinates were orphans, and most of the followers who followed him were the second sons, youngest sons, concubines, or even simply poor people with no family fortune.
There are a few people who have a family and are willing to follow him. In fact, if you think about it carefully, there is only one Cheng Pu, and Cheng Demou is actually a member of the township party and an old official of the Gongsun family.
As for the direct descendants of the higher-level families, there is actually only one Shen Zhengnan, Shen Zhengnan... This is a special case of a sudden big change, the sky fell and the earth fell, and then he received the great favor of Gongsun Xun.
So what about Wang Xiu and Wang Shuzhi?
The answer is that this person was an orphan first... Wang Xiu became famous for the first time that year. One of the so-called famous things in the village was that his mother died when he was seven years old. At that time, the Spring Society was worshiping the earth god, but because of him
She cried so much that all the neighbors had no intention of offering sacrifices to the gods, so they called her filial piety for a while;
Then, this person is still the third eldest son in the family, his uncle is Zhi, his brother is uncle Ji, and he has two elder brothers. He does not need to think about how to manage the family business and protect the ancestral property. Of course, there is not much family property that can be distributed to him;
In addition, although his clan is a second-rate local gentry and has the conditions to allow him to study, it is inevitable that his family will be somewhat unsatisfied. His grandfather served as a county king with a term of 600 dan, and his father was just a county official.
;
Finally, although Liaodong and Beihai belong to two states these days, because the Bohai Sea has been used for shipping since ancient times, they don't actually feel that they are very far from each other. Even when appointing officials, the imperial court regarded these two places as close neighbors.
Look, for example, Ju Teng, the governor of Xuan Tu who just took office recently, is from Beihai himself.
Of course, one more thing here, thanks to the fact that Amway has been building its own business network with the Bohai Sea as the core for more than ten years, this has made people-to-people exchanges between Liaodong and Qingzhou more and more frequent, which is unexpected.
Already.
In short, there is really no symmetry between Gongsun Xun and Wang Xiu in terms of status, reputation, and achievements.
So, when the former made a trip to Beihai and came to Yingling to secretly inquire about the other party's daily deeds and reputation, he found that Wang Xiu was really a moral gentleman who worked hard and never complained at a young age.
He decisively extended an invitation to the other party.
As for Wang Xiu, he had no worries and was looking for a job to support himself after returning from his study tour. At this time, when he saw that the world-famous talents who had met on the road came to catch up with him, it was natural that there was nothing he could think about.
He hesitated and followed Gongsun Xun to Liaodong.
"I should have known that I would have taken my big cargo ship, the Amway." Gongsun Xun regained his composure for a while, and then he managed to stand up and said. "I thought that by following this ship, I could have more conversations with the people and get more ideas for governance, but where can I?
Thinking about being on the boat for half an hour and losing strength..."
Everyone was also speechless.
However, Wang Xiu was still a down-to-earth person. He bowed his head and praised the new Xiangping Lord: "No matter what, your thoughts are still good."
"There is no need to say this." Gongsun Xun tried his best to look around. "Now that we have arrived in Liaodong, we might as well not reveal our whereabouts and sneak to Xiangping... Anyway, the white horses were sold in Qingzhou, let's buy some
It’s better to have a variegated animal and go on the road.”
"We will naturally do this kind of thing," Han Dang was helpless. "Young Master, you might as well rest for a night before we talk. Your body is really not suitable for going on the road directly."
Gongsun Xun nodded slightly and said no more. After leaning for a while, everyone gathered around him and stayed in an inn run by Anli... This place was very similar to the Yishe over there.
It's just that food and lodging are no longer free. In fact, this place is a new thing modeled after the charity house there.
"My mother had the idea of setting up an inn along the trade road a long time ago." Outside the inn, in front of the notice board marked with the three characters Anli, Gongsun Xun couldn't help but stop and sigh. "But the imperial court has its own pavilion system, so it has never been possible.
It was established in places other than western Liaoning, and the few charity houses were only set up in the county of western Liaoning. I didn't expect to see it in Liaodong today...it's strange."
"It's indeed strange." Han Dang also sighed with emotion. "I have never heard of an inn here before. Otherwise, others wouldn't know about it. How could we not know about it in a place like Western Liaoning?"
"It's not surprising." At this moment, Lou Zibo suddenly said. "On that day, Shaojun was suddenly summoned by the Third Duke. The bus drove straight to Luoyang, and Yi Gong also left directly, so he didn't know what was going on here... Shaojun, Shaojun
As a county official in western Liaoning, do you know that among the five counties outside the Great Wall, it has always been the custom for the prefects of the two counties in Liaodong and West Liao to lead outside the Great Wall?"
"This is natural." Gongsun Xun suddenly replied. "The five counties outside the Great Wall are of different sizes. Needless to say, Lelang is remote. Xuantu is small, rich, and has special responsibilities for Goguryeo. Changli County has since been changed to Liaodong Kingdom.
Later, there was no prefect, but the five cities in the vassal country were supervised by captains with a weight of more than 2,000 shi, and some of the Xianbei and Wuhuan tribes. Therefore, the court often used the Liaodong prefect or the Liaoxi prefect to supervise the Liaodong vassal state. However..."
"However," Lou Zibo said with a twist of his tongue. "Among them, Liaodong County occupies a vast area, has a large population, governs eleven counties, and is surrounded by the other four counties. Therefore, the governor of Liaodong has eight out of ten important tasks.
The governor of Liaodong was responsible for Jiudu, which is where the name of this vassal country came from. However, the governor of Liaodong has always been the person with the most power and responsibility in the five counties outside the Great Wall. When encountering an overbearing governor, he would often act beyond his authority.
, directly commanding the other two counties and one country. Therefore, occasionally the court would ask the Liaoxi prefect to serve as the governor or to concurrently take charge of the Liaodong vassal state, in order to beat the Liaodong prefect to prevent the tail from being lost."
"That's right." Gongsun Xun took a long breath. "But what does this have to do with my inn being opened here?"
"Young Master!" Lou Gui couldn't help but sigh. "Don't you understand? Your current boss, the current governor of Liaodong, Gao Yan, is a scholar of the family. He has always been cowardly. When he came to Liaodong, he only wanted to promote enlightenment...
In terms of reputation, title, connections, and military exploits, how can they be compared with your father-in-law Zhao Gong, Shaojun?"
Gongsun Xun was stunned on the spot and was in a daze for a moment.
"Uncle Zi, what you mean is...the one who is also in charge of the Liaodong vassal state now is our young lady's biological father, Lord Zhaofu of Marquis of Marquis?" Han Dang suddenly asked.
"It's more than that." Lou Gui continued to wave his hands and show off. "You must know that these five counties are isolated outside the fortress, surrounded by Xianbei, Wuhuan, Fuyu and Goguryeo. Even the governor can only visit once a year.
Therefore, it is often necessary to make decisions on the spur of the moment and support each other. As the saying goes, a snake cannot survive without a head, so even though there are five people with two thousand stones, it is natural to choose a leader... Zhao Gong fought in Liucheng that day, and he was loyal, filial and brave.
It is known to the world that at that time, four of the five counties outside the Great Wall were under his command. He saw it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears. Now he also controls the Liaodong vassal state. Who among these counties outside the Great Wall disobeys him? I won’t hide it from you, Lord Justice.
He said, not long after you left that day, our Amway's business outside the Great Wall had already begun to show signs of being taken care of by the government."
Han Dang nodded repeatedly, Wang Xiu was thoughtful, and Gongsun Xun became more and more speechless... In this case, shouldn't Zhao Yun have to be more 'respectful'?
Of course, overall it’s a good thing!
"Yi Gong, please go in and find a place to settle down." After thinking this, Gongsun Xun quickly waved his hand and said. "Zibo and Shuzhi followed me to look at the bulletin board here to see if there was no important or interesting information, and then went in
…”
Everyone was naturally speechless.
However, when Gongsun Xun walked to the empty bulletin board, he was speechless.
It turned out that there was no complicated information on the huge bulletin board, just large sheets of printed paper clearly posted from right to left, and each of these large sheets of paper was actually just one person's 'resume'.
!
That's right, just his Gongsun Wenqi's resume!
After reading this 'resume', not only Gongsun Xun, but also Lou Zibo didn't know what to say.
By the way, this paper clearly states that the imperial court has appointed a new Xiangping County Magistrate. This person is called Gongsun Xun. Therefore, out of the kindness of the people of Xiangping, Amway will now list this person's resume one by one as a reference.
Reminder... Of course, there is no need to ask more about why the notice for the convenience of the people of Xiangping (later Liaoyang) was posted in Dashi (later Dalian).
Maybe there were too many Amway plates printed during the printing? Maybe they even posted them in Lelang County, Chosun County (Pyongyang)!
And further on, it is Gongsun Xun's so-called "resume" starting from Shufa entering Liaoxi County as a county official.
It's strange to say that most other people's resumes tell when they were appointed to what official position, but this Gongsun Xun's 'resume' is all about the big and small events, and they are all very clear... Whether it was the night attack of Lu Longsai and Han Yigong's 30 cavalry that day.
, or the battle of Liucheng to save the governor's family, or the burning of Danhan Mountain, or even the previous killing of eunuchs in the court, all of them were not left out!
Moreover, the narrative is detailed and the characters are vividly drawn.
For example, in front of the Junqiu River, how did Gongsun Xun remain calm and command in the face of danger; and how did Gongsun Xun disturb Wang Fu when he was executing the eunuchs, and then shouted, "Sooner or later, I will kill this thief for the world."
There is even the words of the Xianbei Khan Tan Shihuai who shouted "Where is my royal court" when he saw his royal court being burned down... It was like seeing it with his own eyes!
Gongsun Xun, who was standing in front of the empty bulletin board, had no doubt that in the next few days, there might be more scenes in this resume where he went back to the table of the minister to denounce Cao Jie, or even Qiao Xuan's saying, "Strong on the inside but sharp on the outside."
, "Sharp as the Crown of the World" might also appear on it.
"I was in Nanyang before, and I only knew the general outline of these things," Wang Xiu couldn't help but sigh after reading it. "But I didn't know how heroic and heroic your commander was... It's a pity that although the climate in Liaodong is good, it is still a place outside the Great Wall.
, there are very few readers, and not many people will read it when it is posted here... What a pity!"
"Hey... let's go in!" Gongsun Xun hesitated, but in the end he didn't say much.
After all, there are a lot of qualifying words in this 'resume', but after all, as Wang Xiu said, things are generally correct, so Gongsun Xun doesn't know whether it is a good or bad thing that few people are watching.
In this way, the three of them, all wearing cloth clothes and beams, walked into the inn with several attendants. Then they saw Han Dang and two other attendants standing in the hall, talking to a middle-aged innkeeper.
People say something and point to a place from time to time to ask.
"Young Master came just in time." Han Dang quickly turned around to greet him. "Boarding and meals have been decided. Is there any important announcement outside?"
Gongsun Xun shook his head repeatedly.
"There are some interesting things here." Han Dang couldn't help but smile. "I didn't expect... I didn't expect there would be people telling stories in this Amway Inn."
Gongsun Xun's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and then he quickly asked: "Where did this story come from?"
"Reply to this young master." The shopkeeper of the Amway Shop happened to have met his own young master who had not been home for several years, so he went straight forward and said with a smile. "In addition to buying and selling goods, our Amway Shop also does
There are many good stories in the printed books. Therefore, the owner first asked the eloquent people in the shop to go to the Liaoxi headquarters, where they would listen to the literate people in the headquarters read out the stories in the book, and wait for them to memorize them.
After the meeting, they put them back and let them tell the stories they heard to the people who came and went to stay."
Gongsun Xun couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief... In other words, the idea of telling storytelling was something that my mother had been saving up for many years but she hadn't been able to do it. How could I not have known it? And now that there is an inn, it's no wonder that my mother can't wait to do it.
"What kind of stories are they?" Wang Xiu asked curiously. "Nowadays, most books are classics, and there are not many stories in ancient books."
"Return to this young master." The innkeeper of the Amway Inn continued with a smile. "What we are talking about now is "The Chronicles of the Gods", which tells the general story of King Wu's defeat of Zhou. Then we, the Amway Number, specially invited everyone.
Compile these stories into spoken language that ordinary people can understand. To be honest, this "Feng Shen Ji" is now the favorite of merchants and locals of the Da family..."
Gongsun Xun nodded slightly, this was something he had heard when he was a child.
"Actually, there are no printed copies of this book of the Legend of the Gods for sale yet, only a version that is not for external circulation." The middle-aged shopkeeper continued with a smile. "We have it in our inn, but the storyteller is illiterate. He went back to Liaoxi last time.
The date was delayed again, so there was no update for half a month, and the guests were very dissatisfied..."
"What do you mean?" Gongsun Xun couldn't help laughing.
"I think if you are thoughtful enough to read another story for my guy, I would be willing to waive the room charge for this night for you!" the shopkeeper said quickly. "Of course, you are on your way in a hurry.
Or even if you don’t bother to do this, it’s understandable to me.”
As soon as he said this, many guests around him fell silent and waited eagerly. The huge inn was quiet for a while.
"Bring me the book, let me take a look." Lou Zibo stretched out his hand and said.
The shopkeeper was so happy that he immediately asked the waiter behind him to take out a handwritten paper book from the counter.
Gongsun Xun was also curious about whether the plot was different from what he had heard when he was a child, so he took it first and then just turned to a page. He was stunned on the spot again, and his fingers were so stiff that the veins on the back of his hands were almost exposed.
Lou Zibo was also curious, so he reached out to take it and looked at it carefully. Then he was stunned for a moment.
It turns out that the first paragraph of the book on this page reads: "Yang Jian joined the Chinese army and told Jiang Taigong about his plan. When Jiang Taigong heard about it, he was overjoyed and immediately rewarded Yang Jian and said: "He has both wisdom and courage.
, and his miraculous achievements will last forever." He also ordered Nezha to assist the heroes and serve the country wholeheartedly. (Everyone in the audience must know that the term "wisdom and courage" refers to heroes. We, the eleven counties of Youzhou, have experienced frequent wars, but in recent years, there have been only
That Gongsun Wenqi of Western Liaoning was worthy of the battle at Liucheng that day. It was said by Lord Zhao of Western Liaoning himself. Later, Lord Zhao of Western Liaoning even betrothed his only daughter to Gongsun Wenqi)..."
