Shaoqing, too shou Liu Ganxu stepped into the hall.
Zu Zhao stood up to greet him. Liu Gan is a member of the royal family, over forty years old, and quite cultivated. Liu Taishou had already heard of Zu Zhao's reputation, so he did not show an official tone, but was very kind. After a few false greetings, Liu Gan motioned for Zu Zhao to sit down, and then ordered the nearby servants to change the lamps and tea.
"Zu Zhao, you are sixteen years old, and you are in the year of learning, but you also have a reputation in the county, which is really commendable." Liu Gan stroked his beard and smiled.
"Lord Fujun has an excessive reputation, how can the kid be virtuous, but they are all false names that can't be established." Zu Zhao owes himself to answer.
"Hehe, you're too humble. Repel the thieves, rescue the innocent, cross the county to fight the thieves, and kill more than a dozen enemies. How can this be an unorthodox name? Liu Gan said extremely dexterously, showing his strong literary skills. This time, the county recommended you to be inspected at this age, but I don't know how to fill in the purpose of a clear calculation of the square subject? With Zuzhao's feat of youth and bravery, even if the county doesn't lift you, the government will consider promoting you to be brave and square.
"Thanks to the love of Lord Fujun, it's just that the kid is still young and doesn't dare to be too big. Moreover, the boy has some experience in arithmetic, as the saying goes, those who work hard are governed by others, and those who work are subject to others. The boy is not unpopular with the people of the North, but he is quite expected by his family, so he also hopes to do more. Zu Zhao said the excuse that he had thought of a long time ago. Although this excuse is somewhat far-fetched, it is fortunate to express personal wishes. With Liu's gentlemanly style, it is obvious that it will no longer be difficult for others.
"It's a good sentence that those who work hard are governed by others, and those who work are subject to others, haha, since you have already decided, it is inconvenient for this government to ask more. It is also said that most of the people recommended by the counties this year are brave and square, and they have their own talents, and they should also do their best. Liu Gan slowly bowed his head and said with a smile on his face.
Zu Zhao had heard earlier that although Liu Gan, the Taishou of Youbeiping County, was courteous and virtuous, approachable, and very cultivated and sentimental, he was not good at governance. And it is precisely because he is too approachable and very casual in the management of officials, that the county government is uneven, mixed, and there are some flattering villains. Liu Gan was clearly aware of the horse robbery case reported by Xu Wuxian before, not only that, but the cross-border thieves who later made a lot of noise were also eye-catching, but Liu Gan did not face up to this matter at all at this moment, which shows that he did not take this matter seriously at all.
"At yesterday's dinner, the government just met the Fang Zheng Liangcai who came from Wuzhong and Guangcheng counties. Both of them are brave and brave, not only famous in the county, but also very good in the eyes of the government. Later at the dinner, the government will introduce these two people to you to get to know each other, both of them are outstanding people in the county, and they will work together in the future to do their best for the Han Dynasty. After a slight pause, Liu Gan directly cut to another topic, and said this very earnestly.
When Zu Zhao heard Liu Taishou say this, it was as if he had confirmed that he had passed the inspection assessment and was about to join the company.
"Lord Fujun has good intentions, and the kid is stunned. If there is really a place for the kid to come into use this time, the kid will definitely live up to the trust of the prince, do his best, and make a modest effort. He leaned over again and followed Liu Taishou's words and said. Although this assessment is not a big deal for me, there is still an opportunity to push it forward.
"I am very relieved to have such a mind like you." Liu Taishou said with a smile.
"Forgive the kid for being presumptuous, a month ago, the thief in Lingzhi County was in trouble, and the kid still needs to ask Lord Fujun how to deal with it?" Since Liu Taishou is easy-going, in the final analysis, he is not a violent and unprovoked person, Zu Zhao simply put on a serious posture and asked directly.
Liu Taishou was originally happy, but when he heard this, his face suddenly changed. He pondered for a long time, pondered for a moment, and then reacted after a while. I was surprised, but I didn't mean to blame.
"Hasn't the thief been wiped out by the righteous men of the ancestral family in one fell swoop? How can I dispose of it separately? This matter has been truthfully reported to the envoy, and the ancestral family has truthfully stated this righteous act, so there is no need to worry about the reward. Liu Taishou mistakenly thought that Zu Zhao was emphasizing the merits of the ancestral family, so he deliberately used some tone in the second half of the sentence.
"Lord Fujun misunderstood, the kid doesn't care about rewards, since it is a righteous act, it should be an unshirkable thing, why should it be rewarded? The reason why the kid mentioned this matter is that he thinks that there is another hidden story behind this matter, and the thief has many suspicious things this time, if he does not guard against it, he is afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future. Zu Zhao put on an extremely serious posture and said meticulously.
However, the report submitted by Xu Wuxian and the official letter sent by Yang Taishou of Liaoxi County did not indicate that there were too many suspicious things. Although County Magistrate Chen said that this was a premeditated collusion with the Hu people to invade the border, it is common for Hu thieves to commit repeated crimes in the border areas. It is really embarrassing that the people's suffering caused this thief trouble, but isn't it that every year in winter, such a crowd will make trouble? Liu Taishou looked puzzled and said slowly.
When Zu Zhao heard this, he could already conclude that this Liu Taishou was indeed a very unshrewd person, in short, he lived in a temple and did not know that the people were in danger, just like the Emperor Jin Hui who did not eat meat porridge in later generations. He couldn't help but feel a little worried, if there were such people left and right, wouldn't his hard work to kill thieves not arouse the vigilance of the official family at all?
"Lord Fujun, in recent years, there have been thieves every winter, and they are getting worse and worse every year. Even if this is just an ordinary gathering of people to make trouble, but looking at the people's livelihood in the world, we have to be vigilant. There are many thieves in the territory who can be appeased, but the thieves outside the country are always eyeing the tiger. Why not take advantage of the momentum of the thieves to encourage the counties to actively organize the people's strong experience, neighborhood joint defense, and prevent problems before they occur? Zu Zhao suggested bluntly.
"Zu Zhao, do you mean that the thief will recommit it at any time?" Liu Taishou asked intently.
"That's exactly what the kid meant." Zu Zhao nodded.
"If it is a small group of thieves, the county governments of the border counties should be able to deal with it; If the thieves invade the territory on a large scale, I am afraid that they will have to ask the officials and soldiers for help. In the past few years, the imperial court has also sent generals to the border states and counties to lead the army to defeat the thieves. There are both precedents and preparations, and this government really doesn't know what else Zu Zhao has to worry about. Mrs. Liu said with a sense of concern, although there was a little sadness on her face, she didn't feel as worried as Zu Zhao.
He always thought that Zu Zhao was young, and he would inevitably be a little flustered after breaking the thief twice in a row, so he would always exaggerate some things for granted. Fortunately, he has a gentle temper and does not care about such "self-righteousness", but thinks that he should be patiently persuaded and return to Zuzhao's mind.
"My lord, in the past, the imperial court ordered a crusade against the thieves who disturbed the realm, but the thieves have been looted to the point of being out of control, the counties have been plundered, and the people have been killed. The officers and troops transferred by the imperial court need to be supplied on the spot, which will only make the attacked counties more difficult at that time. Instead of waiting for a painful experience, why not prevent it before it happens? Zu Zhao said quite eloquently.
Liu Taishou pondered for a while, although he was doing nothing, he was not irrational, Zu Zhao's words were reasonable, and he would naturally be moved.
"So," said Liu Taishou after a long time, "you mean to keep the counties on guard all year round?"
"It's not about guarding, it's about practicing hard. Farming in his spare time, and when a thief comes to commit an offense, he will turn the pieces into a whole and respond to the enemy together. Zu Zhao said in a simple summary that he knew that Liu Taishou didn't want to do something that violated the discipline, especially training in private, so he shifted the focus of this matter a little.
