Chapter 103 On Lock (I)

Liuzi County, signing house.

Zhang Youzhi read the official document and put the official seal with satisfaction. He carefully put it together, and ordered the officials to dispatch it.

After a moment, he stretched his waist, smiled, and took a breath, and glanced at the self-ringing bell. This self-ringing bell was sold by the Western Qin Dynasty and was tributed by the Song family. Now it is rewarded by the lord.

At this time, a servant came in with a small step and said with apologies: "Master, you got up early and slept late last night. Are you going to have a Chinese meal now?"

In this world, meals only refer to "meals", which can be used by ordinary people.

Zhang Youzhi stood up and said, "I'll go see my uncle first, and use it with my uncle."

As I said that, I went out. When I got outside, I felt a chill. The rain was hazy outside. The rain drifted with the breeze and fell on my clothes from time to time.

As soon as Zhang Youzhi arrived in the room, he saw Zhang Minzhi come out: "Come on, come with me."

Zhang Minzhi said: "Youzhi, what do you think of General Dingyuan now?"

Zhang Youzhi did not take the words immediately, looked up and walked towards a bench in the corridor near the corner. Both of them sat down. Zhang Youzhi sighed leisurely: "General Dingyuan's victory this time will basically determine the overall situation in Shu, unless Wei Cundong suddenly returns to his youth."

"Well, in recent years, my calculations have become clearer and clearer. By the way, the ancient world consists of thirteen states, and each state has a dragon energy. This Shu is the dragon energy of Yizhou." Zhang Minzhi said.

"The dragon energy of Yizhou is gradually gathering. A while ago, I found an opportunity to observe the ancestral tomb of Wang Hongyi's second father, and found that nothing was wrong."

"But there is a hidden glory in the family temple, which condenses young dragons that appear and appear. This is the gathering of young dragons in Shu. Wang Hongyi has the dragon energy of Yizhou and will be able to unify Shu in the future and compete for the world."

Zhang Youzhi looked around and saw that there was no one around, and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, tell me about Qianlong in various states."

"Since the decline of the imperial court, the dragon energy has risen in various places. Each state has its own dragon movements, trying to chase the world. However, some dragon energy has died before it has been achieved, and some can rise and grow and compete with the dragons."

"I have only seen four dragons. Not only did the dragon energy in Shu, but the dragon energy in Qin is also thriving, very strong. In addition, the dragon energy in Jingzhou is gradually awakening. As for the dragon energy in Jiaozhou, although the Han people often cultivated it, the Hu Yi energy is too strong, so the foundation of the dragon energy is weak and it does not return to the orthodox."

"The battle of dragon energy is about racing against time, growing first and swallowing the neighboring dragon. Shu is rich, and a quarter of the wealth in the world comes from this. However, Shu has the defense of Jiange and Hanzhong, Kuimen and Sanxia, ​​which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. But because of this, Shu kings have been locked in the dragon and do not want to make progress, and they often protect themselves in a corner."

"Lock the dragon?" Zhang Youzhi asked with a frown.

"This is a saying in geoscience. Shu is closed and surrounded by surroundings, and its dragon is difficult to get out. Therefore, once someone becomes the King of Shu, he is often influenced by the dragon energy. Even if the heroic plan is broad, it will inevitably breed a desire to enjoy it and not be enterprising. Even if the influence is not great in the early stage, the dragon energy is difficult to get out. Therefore, when the Shu dragon competes for the front line, only two or three tenths of the Shu dragon's energy is often difficult to get along with the neighboring dragon, and the first battle is defeated."

"Once you lose, the power of trapping the dragon will be achieved. The dragon energy penetrates. Even if the hero does not want to make progress, it will be difficult to break through. You have always been valued by General Dingyuan. You must write a letter in the future, both to leave Shu and win the first battle. Only in this way can you trap the dragon and break the lock and achieve great achievements." Zhang Minzhi said.

When Zhang Youzhi heard this, he was silently in his heart. Everyone in the world thought he was the master of the plan. In fact, half of it was guided and supported by Zhang Minzhi, who was hidden behind the scenes. This time it was also a strategic direction.

"Uncle, you have such a long life, why not become an official? I don't think my lord would mind."

"Hey, it's great that you have this heart, but I know that I was originally a normal situation. Now that I practice the Dharma and break the fortune, I can no longer be rich or noble. But if you are born with great wealth and honor, we can work together to make your fortune in the country and lay the foundation for the wealth of my Zhang family."

When Zhang Youzhi heard Zhang Minzhi's words, Zhang Youzhi moved his body and was very moved.

"You are now the seventh-rank county magistrate. According to my observation, General Dingyuan attaches great importance to you. If you want to follow the dragon, be careful and be careful. Remember, according to my opinion in the future, the Zhang family will inevitably have a marquis position."

Zhang Youzhi smiled and said, "Thank you for your uncle's teachings. The general situation is not yet determined, and there is no need to make any decisions. Only after unifying Shu, I should fight for it. I must make sure that the lord can break the lock and leave Shu and annex the neighboring dragon."

Zhang Minzhi nodded and said, "You have luck. As long as you don't overcome your duties, don't be taboo by the dragon energy of the Lord, or if the Shu dragon is beheaded, I will rest assured about everything else."

Zhang Youzhi bowed and replied: "Yes!"

Wenyang Mansion

After Wang Hongyi returned to the army, Zhang Youzhi and Yu Liangbo were not there at this time, and they became much more busy dealing with things. They only ate a little snack at noon. After sorting out one batch, they were stunned at the window.

At this time, the minor officials who were serving did not dare to ask, stood side by side outside, looking at Wang Hongyi from time to time.

"I know now that the Secretary-General is really indispensable." After a long time, Wang Hongyi sighed and said, then pursed his lips: "The people recommended by each county are responding outside?"

The little official said, "Yes, they are all outside, half of them have been appointed as the official for a year and have been promoted according to the capital, and half of them have been specially recommended."

As he said that, he looked at Wang Hongyi's expression.

Wang Hongyi listened seriously and immediately said, "There is no imperial examination yet. This recommendation is the source of talents. Please bring them up and meet in the side hall."

"Yes!" the little official responded.

Wang Hongyi went directly to the side hall and sat down on the middle seat.

There was not much time, and more than a dozen people came to pay their respects one by one, and there was a large number of kneeling.

Wang Hongyi said with a smile: "Get up!"

At this time, the leading man was about thirty years old. He respectfully held a book and said, "General, this is the confession of me and others."

"Take it!"

"Yes!" The man agreed and offered him.

Wang Hongyi looked at it one by one and was all recommended, and they all had some experience and family background. Knowing that this was not the time to check it out carefully, he said with a smile: "You are all recommended talents, and they are all sent to be officials for some time to be familiar with local or yamen affairs, but this time is nothing. It will take some time to truly understand it."

"Yes!" Everyone responded repeatedly.

"Let's do this, you all become an official to serve as a ninth-rank Dengshilang. We will arrange the specific work to continue." Speaking of this, Wang Hongyi felt more and more that the establishment of the center was imminent.

Everyone was overjoyed and kowtowed to thank him. Wang Hongyi glanced at him and saw that his destiny was revealed.

Among the dozens of people, three of them have white energy, which is okay. Even if they have white energy, they can still reach the ninth level. Now they are only from the ninth level, and there is no big problem.

The others had light red and red auras, but only one young man had a golden aura on his head, which immediately shocked Wang Hongyi.

After thinking about it, Wang Hongyi said, "You three stay, let the others retreat!"

When I went up my fingers, there were three, two were crimson and one was golden. These three were a little surprised and stood still.

"Report the name again!"

"Yes, I have hoped to pay homage to my lord." Since I became an official, I am qualified to be the lord of Wang Hongyi. This person's true destiny is deep red.

"My minister Hu Chu pays homage to the lord." This is also the talent of the county magistrate.

"My dear Zhang Yuwen, please pay homage to your lord." This person is someone that Wang Hongyi attaches great importance to. Wang Hongyi thought about it carefully and seemed that he had some impression of this person. He didn't think about it for a while, but it didn't matter if he didn't remember it. It was impossible to put his destiny on him.

He said immediately: "You three don't have to send them to the county. Just come to my secretary as a ninth-rank Dengshilang, but that's right."

"After joining my secretary, it is all about military and political affairs. How many rules do you have to be an official here? First, do not make friends with ministers, or kill those who form cliques. Second, those who leak military operations, those who leak secrets will be killed without mercy. Third, those who discuss right and wrong are not allowed to deal with it severely - do you understand?" Wang Hongyi also had a smile on his face and said lightly, but suddenly a chill appeared in his heart.

However, the Secretary-General is the small cabinet, and everyone who enters will be promoted quickly. After being shocked, they were all overjoyed and kowtowed: "Yes, I dare not. We are confidential. The generals have great trust in it. How dare I forget my righteousness when I see profit and live a life of life?"

"It's good that you know, I'm just giving me a message." Wang Hongyi smiled and changed the topic: "You go down now, go to the account room to get fifty taels of silver, don't refuse, this is the treatment you have for entering the secretary's department. When you go back, you will get the token and official service. Come tomorrow - go down now!"

"As for order!" The three of them kowtowed out.

When they went out, Wang Hongyi thought hard for a while and finally found a little impression of his previous life.

Zhang Yuwen is said to be very literary and artistic, and was appointed as the magistrate of the King of Shu.

Zhang Yuwen was diligent in his work and loved the people. He promoted water conservancy and did many practical things. The county people were grateful to him. The King of Shu also admired him very much and gave him 50,000 yuan in money.

Now it seems that this person is not just a county magistrate, but at least he can serve as a prefect. Since he can rule the country, he can only be promoted in the future.

Zeng Wang, Hu Chu, Zhang Yuwen and others were all surprised and ordered to collect the silver. The heavy silver was 50 taels. The account room said with a smile: "Since the three lords are in the secretary's department, we will just send it to the secretary's department's yard. Tomorrow, the lord sends someone to take it - no one dares to take a penny or a piece of rice."

Zeng Wang, Hu Chu, Zhang Yuwen and the other two agreed and left the Jiedu Mansion. It was midsummer in June, with the scorching sun, the cicadas chirping and the trees were quiet, and every family was taking advantage of the cool air.

The three of them walked along the street and saw a hotel in front and there was a melon outside. Zeng Wang smiled and said, "We are lucky together and we will be in the same place in the future. How about going in and having a drink?"
