When he heard that Xiang Kunlun was going to send troops with him and Zhang Liao, Gao Shun was overjoyed. However, when he thought that no one was left to guard Zhongling County and Mayi County, Gao Shun was a little worried and said: "But my lord, if there is no one left to guard, , I’m afraid the land between the two counties is…”
"Bo Ping, you don't need to worry, there is still Yuan Fu, don't worry, you and Wenyuan, go get ready."
"No, then my lord, Boping will go and reorganize the troops first!"
Xiang Kunlun waved his hand, "Go, Boping, remember to distribute the fine iron equipment you have made first."
"As commanded."
Gao Shun stood up and walked out quickly. Xiang Kunlun turned to look at Guo Jia, "Fengxiao, can you take me to meet your classmate and friend?"
Guo Jia picked up the tea, drank it down in one gulp, and then stood up, "Of course, General, please come with Jia."
With that said, Guo Jia took Xiang Kunlun directly out of the county government, got on the horse with Xiang Kunlun, and galloped away. The two of them hurried to a field outside the city.
From a distance, Xiang Kunlun saw a young man in a Confucian shirt, plowing slowly in the field with his head buried, bending over, chatting and laughing with the old farmer next to him.
Xiang Kunlun and Guo Jia got off their horses. Guo Jia smiled and walked towards the young man in Confucian shirt in the field. The young man also saw Guo Jia at this time and said to the old farmer with a smile, "Uncle, my friend came to see me. Okay, let’s talk later.”
"Haha, Mr. Xi, you can go ahead. I can just do my own thing here."
The old farmer smiled and said to Xi Zhicai, then lowered his head and continued to do farm work. Xi Zhicai wiped his hands with his own clothes and greeted Guo Jia, "Fengxiao, why do you have the leisure to come and see Xi Zhicai today?"
"Haha, Xixiong is joking, can't Fengxiao come to you Xi Zhicai if nothing happens?"
Guo Jia smiled softly and cupped his hands towards Xi Zhicai. Xi Zhicai saw Xiang Kunlun behind Guo Jia at a glance and smiled slightly.
"Guo Fengxiao, Guo Fengxiao, what do you call nothing?"
Guo Jia was stunned, smiled sheepishly, and rubbed his hands. Upon seeing this, Xiang Kunlun hurried over and bowed to Xi Zhicai and cupped his hands, "Mr. Xi, this is Xiang, the magistrate of Zhongling County. Kunlun, I took the liberty of visiting you, sir, please don’t blame me.”
"The general is joking. How can Xi be so virtuous as to blame the general? I don't know, what is the matter with the general's visit?"
Xi Zhicai looked Xiang Kunlun up and down, and saw that Xiang Kunlun had a breathtaking aura about him, and his every move showed domineering power.
"If Mr. Xi guessed correctly, it was this boy Feng Xiao who brought the general to Mr. Xi."
"No way, no way haha, isn't this because the master is thirsty for talents, so Jia brought the master here, please don't blame me, brother Xi."
Guo Jia was laughing in the middle, and Xiang Kunlun smiled and took over the conversation, "Mr. Xi, I made my own decision, but I really want to ask you to come here this time to help Xiang."
Hearing this, Xi Zhicai saluted Xiang Kunlun and said slowly, "Xi came to visit Fengxiao this time because he wanted to serve, but he never thought that Fengxiao would become an official before me. Since the general wanted to invite someone to serve , Naxi has a question, if what the general said is reasonable, then it doesn’t matter if Zhicai sells his life to the general.”
"Mr. Zhicai, please tell me the truth."
"Zhicai wants to know what the general thinks of the current imperial court and what kind of person he wants to be in the future?"
Xi Zhicai stared at Xiang Kunlun closely, looking at Xiang Kunlun's expression carefully. Xiang Kunlun smiled, "In the current imperial court, the Ling Emperor is fatuous, and Shi Chang serves in troubles and troubles. In the Western Han Dynasty for more than a hundred years, the country Zuo, It is not far from collapse and separation. As for what kind of person Xiang wants to be, for others, surviving may be enough. But if Xiang wants to learn from his ancestors, what if he wants to be the overlord? "
"May I ask who the general's ancestors are?"
"HT!"
As soon as he heard these four words, Xi Zhicai's eyes flashed with sparkle. When he looked at Xiang Kunlun again, a momentum seemed to rise from his body, soaring into the sky.
"Xi Zhicai, I have met my lord!"
Seeing Xi Zhicai prostrating himself in front of him, Xiang Kunlun hurriedly stepped forward to help Xi Zhicai up, "Hahaha, in addition to his filial piety, Xiang is also a man of great talent today!"
"Congratulations to my lord for getting a good minister, and congratulations to Brother Xi for getting a good master."
Guo Jia on the side said in time, congratulating Xiang Kunlun and Xiang Kunlun. Seeing that his classmate and friend had found a good husband, Guo Jia also felt a little happy for him in his heart. Xi Zhi stood up and faced Xiang Kunlun said: "Well, my lord, see if you can give Xi some salary first."
Hearing this, Xiang Kunlun looked at Xi Zhicai funny, but still took out a money bag from his arms and threw it to Xi Zhicai. Xi Zhicai bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, my lord."
After getting the money bag, Xi Zhi turned around, quickly ran back to the field, and handed the money bag to the old man, "Old man, please accept this. Xi Zhi has been bothering you these days. Please give me this money." Take it, Xi will leave first."
After saying that, before the old man could refuse, he turned around and left with Xiang Kunlun and Guo Jia. Since Xi Zhicai didn't have a mount, he had to ride with Guo Jia temporarily.
Xiang Kunlun, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai quickly returned to the county government, summoned an attendant, and arranged a room for Xi Zhicai. Under the leadership of the attendant, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai left together. .
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, a smile appeared on Xiang Kunlun's lips. At this time, a personal guard ran over and said, "My lord, General Zhang Liao has arrived and is waiting for you in the study."
"I know, let's get over it."
After saying that, Xiang Kunlun turned around without looking back and strode directly to the study. As soon as he entered, he saw Zhang Liao coming after a long journey.
"The last general, Zhang Liao, has met my lord."
"Hurry up, Wen Yuan, sit down and take a rest first. I asked you to come here this time because I want to send troops to Changshe to rescue General Huangfu Song. I don't know, would you like to go with me?"
Xiang Kunlun poured Zhang Liao a cup of hot tea, and then sat down with a cup of hot tea himself.
"The capital of Liao is listening to my lord's instructions. My lord is going to the Changshe. Then Liao is willing to lead a group of white-horse loyal followers to speak openly to the lord!"
When Zhang Liao heard that he finally had the opportunity to lead his army to fight with Xiang Kunlun, he suddenly felt happier than anyone else. He had been training new recruits in the horse farm. Zhang Liao had long been unable to bear it. As a general, he could not fight without a fight. But beating, this is what makes him most uncomfortable.
When Xiang Kunlun took Gao Shun to Zhongshan Kingdom to rescue the Zhen family, Zhang Liao was already a little jealous. This time when he returned to Changshe, he had to go with him anyway.
"That's good. You can go back and organize the army in a while. The sooner the better!"
"promise!"
