Three Kingdoms: Divine Choice

"Thank you Gongzi for saving us!"

The young woman saw that the big men had been solved, and then slowly walked over and thanked him.

"No need to be polite."

Su Yan waved his hand and said, "I don't know how this cold night will be chased by a group of evil men?" "

"Gongzi doesn't know something."

The young woman sighed: "I was returning home today to visit my relatives, but I encountered thieves halfway through, and the guards accompanying me had died in battle to protect me, and I was the only one who fled here." "

"If I hadn't met Gongzi here, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to escape the hands of thieves today."

Speaking of this, she looked at Su Yan gratefully.

"It's a small thing, not enough to hang on."

Su Yan shook his head and said, "I haven't asked the girl's name yet." "

"The little woman's name is Zou Yu, and she is the Zou family in Zhuo County." The young woman replied.

"Zhuo County? Miss Zou turned out to be from Zhuo County, so it was convenient. "

Su Yan smiled and said, "I'm also going to Zhuo County on this trip, if not, the girl can follow me back." "

"In this way, thank Gongzi."

Zou Yu saluted and thanked him.

"Miss Zou doesn't need to thank you, just because I also need to ask the girl for something."

"Gongzi, please speak."

"I want to ask Miss Zou to tell me about the situation in Zhuo County."

"Why did Gongzi ask such a question?" Zou Yu wondered.

Su Yan smiled and said, "It's not a secret, I went to Zhuo County this time to take up my post." "

"Commissive? Yes! Don't...... Gongzi, you are the new prefectural order? "

Zou Yu looked at Su Yandao in surprise.

"Exactly." Su Yan smiled and nodded.

Zou Yu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "The little woman usually stays at home, and she doesn't know much about the situation in Zhuo County, I'm afraid she can't help Gongzi." "

"It's okay, you just tell me what you know."

Su Yan said.

Zou Yu nodded, and then told Su Yan something she knew about Zhuo County.

Zhuo County has been a historical place since ancient times during the Warring States period and was an important city in the Yan Kingdom.

Later, after Qin destroyed Yan, it was also established here as the seat of Zhuo County.

Due to its historical heritage, Zhuo County has produced many celebrities.

As far as Su Yan knew,

The founding emperor of the Three Kingdoms and Shu Kingdom, Liu Bei was born here.

Then there is his brother Jieyi, Zhang Fei, Marquis of Hanheng, who is also from Zhuo County.

Then there is the current Hainai Daru, and the imperial court Shangshu Luzhi is also from here.

There are many other celebrities, but the most famous in this era are the above three.

Of course, because Zou Yu is a woman, she usually carries it at home, so it is not convenient to show her face, so she does not know much about the situation in Zhuo County

What Su Yan knew from her was about the situation of the Dian Zhuo County family.

One of them is the Lu family.

There is Lu Zhi, a great Confucian of the world, who came from this and served as an executive in the imperial court.

The Lu family should rightfully be the first family of Zhuo County.

However, because Lu Zhi is a clean official and does things resolutely, the Lu family is not strong in Zhuo County.

Further down, there is the Zou family and the Jian family where Zou Yu is located.

These two are both merchant families, and although some people in the family are officials, they are either minor officials or not local officials, and their power is not very strong in the local area.

Mainly based on business, he has accumulated a lot of wealth.

However, in comparison, the Zou family's commercial strength is still very strong, and it can be regarded as a rich businessman in the entire Youzhou.

Of course, if you look at the comparison of rich businessmen in the world, such as Zhen in Jizhou, etc., it is still a step behind.

In addition to these three, there are also some small families.

Zou Yu didn't know much, so he told Su Yan that his surname would be gone after that.

As for the affairs of Zhuo County officialdom, Su Yan didn't expect her to know much, so it was better than nothing.

"It seems that if you want to know the specifics, you will not know until tomorrow."

Su Yan sighed, simply stopped thinking about it, leaned on the mat grass and slept.

Early the next morning.

The book boy set up a carriage, followed by Su Yan and Zou Yu, and set off towards Zhuo County.

After driving for half a day, I entered the territory of Zhuo County almost in the afternoon.

Along the way, after entering the territory of Zhuo County

Su Yan looked out the carriage window, and saw that there was a desolate scene outside.

Although there is farmland around the official road, it is untended to and overgrown.

Even the houses in some villages were sparsely populated and dilapidated.

Su Yan couldn't help but frown when he saw this.

According to what Zou Yu said, there are many families in this Zhuo County, and they should be very rich.

Why is this such a scene when you first enter the country?

Su Yan, who was puzzled, asked the book boy to hurry towards Zhuo County.

Gradually, a high wall appeared on the distant horizon.

Zhuo County, it's here!

"Gongzi, there is a group of refugees blocking the city gate ahead, and there is no way to advance for the time being."

At this time, the bookboy Xiaoyu reminded.

Su Yan lifted the curtain of the carriage door, got out of the carriage, and said, "Wait here, I'll take a look." "

Zou Yu opened the door curtain at this time and reminded: "Gongzi, I see that the group of refugees have fierce faces, I am afraid that they will make trouble." "

"It doesn't hurt."

Su Yan waved his hand, walked straight ahead, and in a moment, came to the back of the refugee team.

"Gentlemen, give me some food!"

"Our grain has been stolen by the Huns, take pity."

"Save us!"

These refugees, one by one, dressed in rags, with gloomy eyes, and sallow faces gathered at the gate of the city, looking at the officials at the gate and praying.

"You untouchables, hurry up and scatter for me, don't get in the way here!"

A man wearing a top hat and an official uniform looked at the group of refugees and said sharply.

"Okay, my kids are starving to death."

A woman with her infant son in her arms begged.

"Come, let me blast these pariahs away, those who dare to stand in the way, life and death!"

Nazo shouted.

The soldiers defending the city behind them rushed forward with weapons, and the refugees retreated in horror.

It's just that some old people have long been sitting on the ground, and they can't get up at all.

The soldiers did not care, and when they saw someone blocking in front of them, they raised their knives and cut them down.

"Stop!"
