The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 116 The Song of Wine
In an era when the people at the bottom did not popularize knowledge, many simple and even superstitious methods can win the hearts of the people. Zhang Jiao's absurd trick of saving people with water charms can confuse the hearts of the people. For righteous deeds, Zhang Lu wants to gain fame in Hanzhong, promote the Five Dou Rice Religion, and open charity houses, but in fact, different routes lead to the same goal.

Guo Jia wants to consolidate the regime in Yizhou, the Taiping Army is the foundation, and the next step is the hearts of the people. Even though Guo Jia disdains hypocrisy and goes to the people to greet them in person, because he is in power, the interests of the people are not because of his false greetings, or his help. The common people can make all the common people feel grateful and virtuous, but mere superficiality can only confuse people's hearts for a while. If policies related to the vital interests of the common people cannot be introduced, sooner or later they will be alienated from the common people.

Maybe Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao's starting point was just to sympathize with the vulnerable groups among the people, but it gave Guo Jia a new idea, one that would not only make the Taiping Army work for him more at ease, but also let the people see him. benevolent side.

"Big Joe, Little Joe, tell me, if I set up a new county, let the orphans of the fallen soldiers move in, reduce their taxes, provide help in life, and let merchants hire them, so that their lives are guaranteed, Is this possible?"

The beautiful eyes of the two sisters lit up, and Da Qiao smiled softly: "It is the people's blessing that the general puts the people first and does great deeds."

This can only be regarded as a good deed for some people, and the people who have connections with Guo Jia. If you want the people in the whole of Yizhou to receive Guo Jia's policy of benefiting the people, you need to discuss it with your advisers. .

Establishing a new village and moving the orphans of the fallen soldiers to it is Guo Jia's move to relieve the worries of the soldiers of the Taiping Army, and this move will definitely make the soldiers more loyal to him. As for who will hire these handicraftsmen? Well, Guo Jia still owes the Zhen family a huge fortune. Guo Jia has not forgotten this, and it will be returned to the Zhen family after all. Zhen Yu is at home now, and he is almost sick from boredom.

But a new problem arises again, who will manage this village?If Guo Jia wants to accumulate fame, this part is naturally to let the people count their kindness on his head. If he sends an official to him, it may become the beauty of others.

Looking up slightly, Guo Jia actually didn't look at anything, but was just thinking, but Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao followed Guo Jia's gaze, and there was nothing but the roof, Xiao Qiao couldn't help but asked: "General, What are you looking at?"

After regaining his senses, Guo Jia said hesitantly: "I was thinking, who will be in charge of this village or this county? They are all orphans and widowed mothers. If a man manages it, I'm afraid there will be disputes sooner or later."

In fact, this is an untenable rhetoric. At first, the scale must not be too large. At most, it is a small village. It hardly needs administrative officials to manage it. It only needs to be included in the management of counties and counties.

Da Qiao heard the words and asked hesitantly: "General, look, can I go?"

Guo Jia was taken aback for a moment, and looked at the extremely solemn Da Qiao. Not only was he extremely beautiful, but also exuded an intellectual aura that Guo Jia couldn't help thinking wrong.

When it comes to governance, it’s completely nonsense. After handing over the real benefits to the people, it’s just a matter of someone going through the motions to collect fame. Guo Jia can go there in person, but it’s too conspicuous, and people will always be criticized for being hypocritical. After all, Yizhou is in command The great general of the land, instead of dealing with the endless government affairs, has to go to the people to show his grace.

Changing to other officials, Guo Jia was afraid that the common people would credit others for their kindness, but what about Da Qiao?At first it was nothing, even if the people only recognized Da Qiao but not Guo Jia, after a few years, Da Qiao was twenty, and Guo Jia pushed her down...

Ok?
Guo Jia, who woke up suddenly, felt that Da Qiao's sincerity seemed to be desecrated, avoided Da Qiao's gaze, and coughed lightly to cover his face.

"General, are you feeling unwell? Is it because the wind and cold from the past few days have not recovered?" Xiao Qiao came to Guo Jia's side with concern, raised her face and looked at him worriedly.

Guo Jia felt that he was too shameful. The two sisters with a bodhisattva heart talked to him about serious matters, but he was delusional.

Speaking of which, the identities of the two of them in Guo Jia are not clear, but Guo Jia's men and women also know what the identity of the Qiao family sisters will be in the future. They didn't stay in the room, they didn't know about it, and they didn't bother to guess about these private matters.

Guo Jia can't bear it, girls in their prime will marry as wives, there is always a burden of crime and guilt for destroying them, Cai Yan's pregnancy has already made Guo Jia feel deeply guilty, even if he wants to harm a few more beauties, at least he can't be in bud Be eager to pick it when it is released.

Raising his hand and patting Xiao Qiao's head, Guo Jiarou said: "I have to think about the specific measures. I understand your wishes. I will do this matter as soon as possible. If it is necessary at that time Please help me, I hope Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao will not refuse."

Da Qiao showed a smile and said: "If you can help the general, please feel free to speak up. My sister and I will definitely not stand idly by."

After getting up, he asked Guo Ye to salute the sisters of Qiao's family. Guo Ye really saluted in a dignified way.

After sending Guo Jia out of the mansion, Da Qiao returned to the house and saw Xiao Qiao arranging the hair that was messed up by Guo Jia, and saw her younger sister pouted and said softly: "Sister, why do you think the general treats me like a child?" ?”

Da Qiao was taken aback for a moment, and asked back, "Why did you say that?"

After finally tidying up the messy hair, Xiao Qiao pouted and said, "Every time the general sees Ye'er, he does three actions. He hugs Ye'er, kisses Ye'er, and then strokes Ye'er's hair."

Da Qiao, who couldn't help but laugh, walked towards the inner hall, and smiled as he walked: "Then you should be happy, maybe next time, the general will pick you up and kiss you."

"Sister, how dare you laugh at me! Don't you think so? Don't run away!"

……

The house of the Zhen family, which was bankrupt for Guo Jia’s rebellion, is quite wealthy now. When Guo Jia came to the door with his son in his arms, Zhen Yu brought his two brothers to greet him in person. Saluting and respectfully calling out to the lord, Zhen Yu also respectfully called out to the general.

After Guo Jia stepped into the gate of Zhen's mansion, he grabbed Zhen Yu's arm and walked in, smiling, "Zihe and Zixiu (Zhen Yan's name) are officials in Yizhou mansion, they want to salute me, I accept it, brother You must stop saluting, what kind of general, without an elder brother, how can I be here today? You should call me Feng Xiao, otherwise, I will not dare to come to the Zhen family from now on."

Guo Jia, who followed his own home, dragged Zhen Yu and walked towards the lobby. Zhen Yu couldn't laugh or cry, but Guo Jia made such a fuss, and he regained the ease and ease of friends in the past.

"All the Zhen's restaurants in the north and south of the river are closed. I haven't had a sip of Zuixian in more than half a year. Don't tell me that Zhen's has no stock."

After entering the lobby, he sat down at the guest seats. After Guo Jia put down Guo Ye, he looked left and right, and suddenly asked Zhen Yu in a low voice, "Brother, is your mother in the backyard? Don't disturb her old man. I'll just sit down." Walk."

Now Guo Jia is afraid of Cai Yong's face that hurts his teeth with hatred, and secondly, he is afraid of Mrs. Zhen's smile that is uglier than crying.

It is estimated that Mrs. Zhen is yelling for Guo Jia to pay back the money in her dreams.

Zhen Yu was convinced by Guo Jia, and said with a smile, "My mother and Mr. Cai went to Mount Emei to pray for blessings."

Guo Jia prolonged the ending "Oh" as if suddenly realized, his face gradually became happy, he blinked at Zhen Yu, and pretended to ask: "Then what are you waiting for, brother? Call Jiang Er, let's exchange cups, Get drunk and rest."

Yao recalled that when Guo Jia lived in Zhen's house for half a year, Zhen Yu, Guo Jia, Xu Shu, and Zhen Jiang were almost all under the influence of Guo Jia. Now the great Confucianists must criticize it as unrestrained, and what they like most is going out Outing, hunting wild game, drinking spirits, and laughing unscrupulously between heaven and earth, at that time, it should be the last peace before the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

Zhen Yu was overwhelmed with emotion, and Guo Jia seemed to have a bit of unrestrained look in front of him, so he became interested, and called the two younger brothers to call Zhen Jiang, and then asked the servants to present them with treasured drunken immortals and delicacies .

Thinking that the low table was too small, Guo Jia huh-la-la put together three tables, waved to Xiao Ren and Xiao Yi in the courtyard, and shouted: "Come, come, let's drink together and warm up. How long have I been, don't you know my temper, don't dawdle, come in quickly."

Xiao Ren and Xiao Yi used to eat and sleep with Guo Jia when he traveled the world with him, but now that Guo Jia is the lord, he also has the gift of a monarch and minister in his heart, but Guo Jia's urging them can be regarded as an order, so they have to obey.

The banquet was quickly filled on the table, and Guo Jia, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the table, saw Zhen Jiang coming shyly, gracefully and charmingly, with lotus steps, but Guo Jia laughed loudly: "Ms. In the dead of night, Jia climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard like a flower picker, you are not acting like this, I don't know who was surprised and wanted to send me, a disciple, to see the official."

The three brothers of the Zhen family burst into laughter after hearing this, and saw that Zhen Jiang was ashamed and angry, and the excitement of reuniting with Guo Jia, which had been brewing for a long time, turned into anger with the laughter of the crowd, and walked behind Guo Jia, Zhen Jiang His face was sullen, his eyes stared at Guo Jia, but soon, it turned into a light smile, his eyes were not sharp, flowing softly, tears filled his eyes, he smiled but wanted to cry loudly.

More than two years ago, after Guo Jia left from Zhen's house, Zhen Jiang never saw Guo Jia again. Even after coming to Chengdu, Guo Jia was involved in business affairs, and Zhen Jiang strictly abided by women's morals, but the two never saw each other. , Today, time has passed, and the moment of poetic and picturesque reunion in fantasy has been turned into a farce by Guo Jia's obsession.

But listening to Guo Jia's words and seeing Guo Jia's unrestrained attitude, why did a silent heart tremble so violently?Almost suffocating.

"Jiang'er, come, pour me wine." Guo Jia naturally pulled Zhen Jiang to his side, and Guo Ye, who was on the other side of Guo Jia, stared at Zhen Jiang curiously.

Zhen Jiang served Guo Jiaman a glass of wine obediently, and then saw Guo Jia raised his glass to respect everyone, and said loudly: "You are all close friends who I regard as flesh and blood brothers. Today, there are no lords and ministers here, only my elder brother, I My virtuous brother, and her, my virtuous wife, we are one family, come, come, drink this cup to the brim!"

The three brothers of the Zhen family and Xiao Ren and Xiao Yi are all very familiar with Guo Jia's style of work, if they don't enjoy themselves today, it may be hard to explain.

A joyous drinking accompanied by the laughter and laughter of the crowd did not come to an end until late at night.
