"Wen Qi is really like a famous official from ancient times!" Liu Yan couldn't help but smile while twirling his beard from a long distance away. "He actually carried the stones and materials himself and built embankments and dams."

Hearing this, Gongsun Xun just glanced at the other party, then continued to lift a basket of about one hundred kilograms of "stones" with Lou Gui, and walked towards the embankment again, paying no attention to the other party.

"ha……"

Liu Yan was not embarrassed at all, but raised his head and smiled, and then he waited beside the stone pile with a bunch of local powerful Zhao people and state officials who did not dare to say a word. Then Gongsun Xun and Lou Gui brought empty baskets.

After returning, he took a step forward and grabbed the opponent's lifting bar and rope.

"Wenqi..."

"Do you also want to give it a try?" Gongsun Xun finally said, but he took advantage of the situation and threw the argument into the opponent's hand, and then his expression became playful.

Liu Junlang was immediately stunned.

"As a son, you should share your father's worries!" As a filial son, Liu Fan rolled up his sleeves without hesitation.

"It just so happens that Xian and his son are together." Lou Zibo is also a person who likes to please, so he actually handed over the basket in his hand.

Liu Fan took the basket and, like his own father, was immediately stunned.

Several state officials looked at each other in confusion when they saw this... They were all Liu Yan's subordinates, so naturally they had to rush forward to rescue him in this situation.

However, at this moment, Gongsun Xun suddenly lost his temper and reprimanded severely: "Are you people trying to destroy the virtue of Fang Bo?"

The officials in these prefectures were shocked, and then they all froze on the spot.

"In the past, Yu Sage controlled the water, with his hands and feet covered, and he did it with his body. At that time, the Han Dynasty filled the embankment, and everyone from the general to the generals carried firewood and stone into the river. Now, as a superior Tinghou, I also do it myself. Why do I have to ask for help when I get to Fang Bo?

Act on your behalf?!" Gongsun Xun's words became more intense, as if he had been wronged in some way. "With so many people watching on the river embankment, wouldn't it spread out to make people laugh at your uncle Fang's hypocrisy?"

The time is mid-afternoon. According to Gongsun Xun's arrangement, the civilian husband at this time is eligible to go back to the work shed and have a bowl of millet porridge... The old millet is sparse, but even so, it is rare these days.

Welfare'... At that time, Gongsun Xun was standing on the embankment. He saw the huge flow of people, and everyone was smiling. In fact, a group of people went to the work shed to get porridge. But when Gongsun Xun and Lou Gui went to carry gravel, they said something like this

The words were spoken while everyone was eating porridge and there was no one around. But now, a bowl of porridge is easy to eat, and the people like ants came back to watch the new 'big nobleman'!

All the officials in the state were blushing, and some were even angry, but in the end they did not dare to take the blame of "bad reputation for Uncle Fang".

But on the other hand, Liu Yan, the person involved, was quite unconcerned when he saw this, and was even a little happy... As smart as he was, he didn't know that Gongsun Xun's petty tricks just showed that the other party was not prepared to stop him from taking the credit.

!

People have given in on major festivals, so what does such a small matter mean?

Besides, I belong to a noble family, but I have been a private teacher for eighteen years. I don’t know how to do anything else, but I don’t know how to pretend?

As a result, Governor Liu immediately put on a conscientious look, scolded his men one by one, and then he and his son lifted a basket of two hundred kilograms of stones, gritting their teeth and holding on to their waists.

Walk towards the embankment.

There were already a lot of people working at this time. This group of civilians had already lost their sense of novelty towards Gongsun Xun, a 'nobleman'. Now that they heard that a new nobleman had arrived, they naturally gathered to watch, and at the same time they all started to watch.

Unable to avoid him, some timid people actually knelt down and kowtowed after hearing that he was the top leader in the state, two levels higher than Gongsun Xun before him.

A group of state officials didn't care about anything else, including Lu Bu, who had been silent before. At this time, they hurriedly followed Liu Yan, preparing to take care of him.

Gongsun Xun calmly put on his clothes and led a group of silent Zhao dignitaries slowly and clearly behind him, boarded the embankment, and then waited condescendingly for Liu Yan, who was still wearing official uniform, to come back and talk nonsense after he finished transporting the stones.

...Everyone understands that if nothing unexpected happens and the levee is about to be completed, this afternoon the Jizhou governor should have a formal discussion with Gongsun Xun, who is in charge of Zhao State, about the memorial.

In other words, it’s time to discuss how to divide the work!

And no matter what, even if it comes naturally, this is a very serious and necessary matter... from all angles:

For Liu Yan, the term of governor was short. In one or two years, Liu Junlang should be appointed as the governor of a large county. However, there are differences between large counties and large counties. Dong Zhuo is now the governor of Hedong, and he is also a top magistrate.

County, but it is definitely not as good as Nanyang and Hanoi! In fact, the most perfect ending of Liu Yan's term should be to be the prefect of Nanyang, the largest county in the world... This is the current prince, and the important official of the clan, Liu Kuan, was transferred to the central government in the past.

The last place of duty before.

But it is precisely because of this that he probably needs the credit of Xiadi more urgently, and even needs the credit of Handan Public School to embellish his tenure... This 'dutiful' clan minister tolerated Gongsun Xun so much

The thing is, it's not just because he bullies the weak and fears the strong. In other words, making certain investments because he sees profits is not inconsistent with bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

On the other side, the dignitaries of the Zhao Kingdom also had their own expectations in silence... Originally, it was a great thing to turn their own dry land into irrigated fertile land, but the swamp in Yiyang County has always only been able to produce wild ducks in one winter.

What should I say if it is suddenly going to turn into good farmland?

It would be better to be honest, even Wei Song and Cai Bojie are a little tempted...especially the latter. After all, Cai Yong is just a distribution, and the family's wealth is still quite a lot. Now he has a family and can't return, and he can't be an official.

, finally settled down in the State of Zhao, taught and educated people, and had a lot of people to support him. It was probably the instinct of the scholar-bureaucrats to set up some land and live in peace.

Of course, there is also Zhao Ping, whom I have mentioned before. Although this man knew that his father would definitely make arrangements, why didn't Zhao Ping himself want to be more direct? If Liu Yan and Gongsun Xun's memorials were

If you can take the initiative to mention him, then no matter where you go in the future, you probably won't be treated like Zhao Yan, your other clan father, right?

A dignified prefect with two thousand stone went to dance for Cai Bo, a prisoner who had just been released from prison, but everyone ignored him!

What's even more frightening is that everyone thinks so because this prefect is a eunuch's son!

Back to the present, even Gongsun Xun can't be said to be calm... Because after the New Year, when the levee passed the "preliminary inspection" of the spring flood, Gongsun Xun could barely be considered to be twenty-five years old. According to his previous

The accumulated merits and the fact of building water conservancy this time should be able to be upgraded to two thousand stones per term, right?

Two thousand stones, Lord Ting, who can stop him then?

Even going deeper, once Gongsun Xun is promoted to two thousand stones, many things will have chain interactions.

The most obvious one is that according to the Three Mutual Laws, Gongsun Xun's father-in-law Zhao Bao can no longer serve as the governor of Western Liaoning... In fact, Zhu Ling's previous arrival has shown that both the court and Zhao Bao have noticed this situation.

You know, Gongsun Xun didn't know that his father-in-law was a person whose life was saved by him. But the fact is that the original Zhao Bao should have died in depression because of the loss of his family after the Battle of Liucheng, but now he is doing well.

He was occupying his position as the most important minister outside the Pass of the Han Dynasty, and became increasingly arrogant in his official career.

Just imagine, when all the people in the world are in silence, there is a man who has a strong backer (Zhao Zhong), rich qualifications (many years of service, traveling to various places, both civil and military), huge reputation (the scene of teaching his son before the battle can be filmed as a model), and is still

It’s hard to say how much ripples the two thousand stones of a rural lord will bring to this era... I’m afraid it’s hard to say?

At the very least, nothing may change, but at the most serious level, the princes in the future may be blocked by Gongsun Xun, his good father-in-law, unknowingly.

In addition, once Gongsun Xun becomes two thousand stones, he can recruit talents on a large scale and openly, and can also provide unprecedented help to his Amway and his wife... For example, if he goes to Xiapi, believe it or not, Xuzhou

Will the Mi family be acquired by Amway on the spot? For another example, if he is going to Wu County or something, will Amway be able to get the tea leaves that the aunt has been thinking about so much?

For example...

"What's the fuss about?!"

Just when Gongsun Xun saw Liu Yan and his son walking up, holding on to their waists, and his thoughts were wandering, suddenly, a sound of exclamation sounded from the river bed not far away, causing him and Liu Yan to turn their heads together.

Looked over.

"Lü Zhizhong, let's go and see what's going on!" Liu Yan's Zhizhong casually ordered, not knowing whether it was intentional or not, but he sent Lu Bu to investigate.

After a while, Lu Fengxian immediately reported back: "Reporting to the envoy, Your Majesty, the mud on the riverbed became soft in the afternoon, and some people dug out auspicious signs there. It was an old turtle with strange texture on its back. Look.

It looks extremely mysterious!”

Liu Yan was immediately so surprised that he even stopped holding his waist. Even Cai Bojie and Wei Song were also surprised, let alone these local bumpkins from Zhao State... However, when Gongsun Xun heard this, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.

A sneer!

Are you kidding me? Is it strange to dig out an old turtle from the mud of a river that hasn’t been cleaned for hundreds of years? As for the textures on the backs of turtles, turtles and the like, you can’t say they are mysterious if you say they are mysterious?

I watched Huanglong together with Emperor Wu of Wei and killed poisonous dragons! Especially the latter, he was killed with one palm!

After passing by Guohe and his entourage, if you tell me anything about this kind of miraculous thing... wouldn't it be just a trick?

It’s just that I never expected that Lu Bu, a country bumpkin from Bingzhou, would become so smooth after just a few days in the province... How mysterious?!

"Please help the civilians quickly to get this mysterious thing!"

Gongsun Xun didn't believe it, but some people did. Liu Yan straightened his back and looked happy after thinking for a moment. "Brother Bozhe, as I remembered correctly, the sight of a turtle in the river should be a good sign, right?!"

"Ah... Indeed!" Cai Yong opened his mouth and raised his head to think for a moment, and then gave a positive reply. "But specifically, the good omen is not the turtle itself, but the thing on its back.

The texture of... "Book of Changes" says: "The river produces pictures, Luo produces books, and the sages follow them." The river pictures are dragons and horses coming out of the Yellow River to carry them, and this Luo Shu is a turtle carrying books from the Luo River.

And out...some people say that this Luoshu is not a real book, but a tortoise shell with its own writing...It is said that some people have seen this kind of tortoise shell with writing..."

If Mrs. Gongsun were here, she would definitely say, "That's called Oracle Bone Inscriptions!"

Of course, not to mention Aunt Gongsun, although Gongsun Xun who was here did not believe it in his heart, and even dismissed it, he just stood aside and said nothing. Instead, he let these dignitaries of the Zhao Kingdom and the officials of the state

I was dumbfounded and moved by Liu Yan and Cai Yong's singing.

To put it bluntly, what harm does this matter have to him, Gongsun Xun? Didn't Chen Sheng and Wu Guang also hide books in the belly of the fish to make everyone make up their mind? As long as these people don't expose the matter and make people laugh, it doesn't matter.

Something else.

As expected, it was quite a big turtle, as big as a millstone used for grinding flour, which had only been popularized for a few years!

Lu Bu was leading the way, and two strong men were carrying them from behind. The patterns on the turtle's back really looked a bit mysterious in the sunlight... Everyone looked at each other, and then couldn't help but look at the leader again.

Liu Yan and Gongsun Xun.

Gongsun Xun was not reserved at all, so he went forward to greet him together with the impatient Liu Yan, and everyone followed closely behind, swarming up.

However, the moment he opened his legs, Gongsun Xun, who was walking slowly forward, suddenly felt that something was wrong - since the mud from the river had just been dug out, why was the turtle's back so smooth, with only its limbs and

Is there mud on the lower abdomen? It seems as if someone has just put it into a mud pit. And if you think about it this way, compared to ordinary civilians, the two people carrying the turtles are a bit too strong, and their clothes are particularly clean and smart.

thick.
