Chapter 11 Cultural relics from ancient times (2)(2/2)
"Serve the country!" the drunken actor sneered and asked under the influence of alcohol. "Why does the king pretend not to understand what he is doing? The king invited you here not to teach him how to serve the country and bring peace to the people."
"It is always right to serve the country and the people," Wang Xiu said sternly to Xi Zhicai, who had drunk too much. "Brother Zhicai advised the monarch to go into hiding. Isn't it because Hanoi cannot serve the country and the people? And the monarch
If you want to do something, isn't it because you want to stabilize the current situation and serve the country and the people?"
Xi Zhong was about to say more, but when he saw Gongsun Xun raising his hand to signal, he immediately shut up.
"Okay," Gongsun Xun waved his hand. "What Shuzhi said is true. If it weren't for the fact that the emperor was so shameless, why should I ask him to help the country and the people? It's just Shuzhi, I won't go to Liangzhou... I don't want to go to that place either.
You see, it is already bad to the core. As a Youzhou native, I may be able to win the battle, but I cannot quell the rebellion."
Wang Xiu sighed slightly, then leaned down to Gongsun again and said: "Your Majesty... No matter what, please be sure to clearly see the direction of people's hearts before making a decision, and do not misjudge the situation."
"Then what do you want?" As soon as Wang Shuzhi finished speaking, Lou Gui immediately helped to smooth things over.
"Wait until I write to ask Dong Gongren and Shen Zhengnan." Gongsun Xun couldn't help but shook his head and said. "I just put it off for now... Anyway, given the current situation, I don't believe that the emperor will do anything because I owe him tens of millions of dollars."
Directly take the life of me, General Wei, Marquis Ji!"
"That's the truth." Xi Zhong, who was already eighty percent drunk, laughed. "After all, the emperor knew in his heart that with the current situation of fire on all sides, how could he kill a general who was capable of counterinsurgency without permission? Or was he from a mysterious background?
The famous general of the Zhou family! In my opinion, even if the emperor is really angry and wants to deal with the princes, he will just cut off his rank, demote him, and then enter the court to idle, or belittle the border areas... but it will fulfill our wishes!"
"That's enough, let's drink..." Gongsun Xun nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and then raised his glass to signal.
"Your Majesty!" At this moment, a guard suddenly called out in the distance. "A letter from Lieutenant Zhao Guodong has just arrived."
"Say Gongren, Gongren will come." Gongsun Xun immediately laughed, and then quickly motioned to the other party to send the letter.
Everyone was also curious.
However, Gongsun Xun tore open the envelope in public and read the first chapter under the torch above his head. His face suddenly became a little depressed, and he folded the letter again and put it in his arms... All his confidants became increasingly confused.
"It's all bad news." Gongsun Xun took a long breath and said. "Before, it was not clear just from the official documents sent by Luozhong, but Gongren's letter made it clear... As soon as the plague subsided, the matter of increasing the tax was
After arriving, the common people abandoned their homes and businesses to become bandits and refugees. Now Jizhou is full of armed and rebellious people. There are no less than ten groups who have raised banners to openly attack the city and seize the territory. It is said that Guo Dian and Guo Junye, the governor of Julu, went to rescue and control the city.
At that time, he was surrounded by the remnants of the Yellow Turbans and several groups of bandits in Juluze. Now he is not sure whether he is alive or dead... Huangfu Yi is really in a hurry to mobilize troops to rescue him."
Everyone had contact with Guo Dian and knew that he was a loyal and upright person, and they were filled with emotion when they heard this.
"I don't want to watch anymore after seeing this." Gongsun Xun continued to raise his glass and said, "The current situation is difficult, let's indulge in a drink today, and see what Dong Gongren said tomorrow!"
After hearing this, several confidants hurriedly held cups and prepared to get drunk with their prince.
"Is there any alcohol in the army?" Still under the same starry sky, deep in Juluze, in the dark night, the gray-haired Guo Dian suddenly turned to his nephew Jingze and asked, "There will be a day tomorrow.
It’s a hard fight, please let me...moisten your throat.”

"In the second year of Zhongping in the Later Han Dynasty, Emperor Ling issued money to build the palace and taxed the land, paying ten yuan per mu.

County. Taizu was in Hanoi. Although he was in charge, he heard a lot of bad news and drank all night long. Wang Xiu stood by and admonished him. Taizu said to him: "The world is turbulent and there is nothing you can do. Today you know what it means to be drunk with worry!"
After hearing this, I returned to drunkenness." - "Jiu Yan Shu". Volume 68. Biography 18
