Chapter 10 The View of Loyalty
"Erlang, Erlang!"
In the back house, Zhao Xu and his sister had been talking for more than half an hour. Suddenly, a shout outside the door could not help but reach Zhao Xu's ears.
"Haha, Erlang. After a long time no see, his body has become stronger and stronger. He is really worthy of being a tiger-shooter."
Wang Guo, who was highly righteous and martial, had a strong heroic spirit, stepped back to the back house. Seeing that Zhao Xu was no longer as tall as him, he couldn't help but pat Zhao Xu on the shoulder happily.
"Erlang, are the two old men in the family in good health?"
"Brother-in-law, father and mother, are in good health."
"Haha, that's fine, that's fine." Lang Shuang smiled, and when he returned to the house to sit down, Wang Guo looked at Zhao Xu carefully and couldn't help but smack his lips, "Sometimes my brother-in-law really wished he could leave you Erlang. To be honest, when my brother-in-law was young, he didn't have the martial arts and calmness of yours."
"Brother-in-law, don't be humble. Let me ask Hanyang County, who doesn't know your name. When I came on the way, I passed by the Tingshe. The people in the county even compared you brother-in-law to Jibu, who had a thousand gold medals."
"Hahahaha. You, too, also said to your brother-in-law. What a person Jibu was like at that time? How could I compare with him?"
As he said that, the smile on his face remained unabated.
His brother-in-law, the hero whom he admires the most is a hero like Ji Bu and Guo Jie in the former Han Dynasty. Now when he heard Zhao Xu's words, he really scratched his itch.
"Brother-in-law, you have been talking to Jincheng Hanyou for so long before. You are so ignorant, but you don't know what kind of person this Hanyou is. How can you really value your brother-in-law like this?"
After drinking a sip of the sauerkraut, Zhao Xu couldn't help but ask for a question in order to get closer.
Sure enough, when I heard Zhao Xu's inquiry, my brother-in-law's kingdom really couldn't help but feel energetic.
"This Jincheng Han Wenyou is an extraordinary person. He is brave and extraordinary, and it is even more rare to be loyal and righteous. When he was the former official of Yin Hua, the prefect of Jincheng, he immediately gave up his official position and Jiang Ying and his group, and chased Yin Hua's body to Xiaqiu. The kindness of his support and repaying him in this way shows his character."
"It is indeed loyalty and righteous to be recommended by someone and abandon his official position to die." He said in agreement, but in his heart, Zhao Xu, who had been a human being for two lifetimes, felt from the bottom of his heart that this value seemed a bit pathological.
There was no imperial examination in the Han Dynasty. If a commoner wanted to be an official, he could only rely on the recommendation of local officials.
Therefore, under such circumstances, those who are recommended as officials will often regard the local chief who recommended him as their greatest benefactor.
Therefore, it was really normal to abandon his post for his mourning and repay his post for his favor to him in this way.
Even at this time, this behavior is the gentlest way to do it.
The more extreme ones were like Gongsun Zan in western Liaoning. Because he was valued by the prefect Liu Qi when he was young, when the prefect Liu Qi was convicted and sent to the state, he even abandoned his official position and pretended to be an ordinary soldier and escorted all the way.
In addition, there was also the famous general Zhu Ye. His benefactor, Yin Duan, was sentenced to death for the unfavorable attack on the thief. Zhu Ye couldn't help but take out all his family wealth to the capital to bribe, thus eliminating Yin Duan's death penalty.
This trend spread later, even when Dong Zhuo entered the capital and held the emperor hostage and caused trouble to the court. Because he re-enlisted Cai Yong, the father of Cai Wenji who was dismissed from office, Cai Yong was very grateful to Dong Zhuo and called Dong Zhuo "Ming Gong" and even sighed after Dong Zhuo's death.
Their behavior seems very irresponsible to people like Zhao Xu, who have the concept of later generations, and emphasizes personal justice rather than justice.
But now, this kind of behavior is indeed a manifestation of loyalty.
So this is why the family of the three ministers, such as Yuan family in Runan, had such influence in the late Han Dynasty. It was nothing more, there were only enough disciples and old officials.
The party and corruption disaster that was in an outbreak at this time was inseparable from the later Dong Zhuo's entry into the capital and the heroes of the world flocked to the court, and all the heroes of the world were inseparable from this value.
However, Zhao Xu would not worry about this.
He is not in his position or in his own affairs. He is just a son of a rich man who wants to survive in the next chaotic times, nor is he a son of an emperor who faces north and south to be called a widow.
What can officials do if they value personal justice and neglect justice and do not take the court's laws seriously?
After a long time not seeing each other, he talked to his brother-in-law, the brother-in-law of the county hero. From this, he learned a lot of things that he didn't know about in Shandong and the situation in the world. After eating together, he saw that his sister was already showing signs of fatigue, Zhao Xu immediately returned to his courtyard.
...
"You group of men who have never seen the world do not see where this place is. They dare to talk back to Mr. Nai. Mr. Nai sees that you are really itchy and need to be beaten."
Guided by a Wang family servant, he had not yet entered the hospital, and a distinctive scolding came into his ears.
When he suddenly heard this, Zhao Xu, who was already worried, couldn't help but frowned and walked into the yard with unhappiness.
"You little boy, you dare to talk back if you ask you to give Nai Gong some foot wash. Look, I won't teach you a lesson."
In the courtyard, Zhao Xu, who might have come to his own territory, was arrogantly chasing the Maquan villager. The scolding that Zhao Xu heard just now was naturally also heard from him.
At the gate of the courtyard, Zhao Xu suddenly felt disgusted by this behavior.
But just when he was about to make a statement to stop Zhao Han, the incompetent brother, Ma Xun stood up first and stopped Zhao Han.
"Don't let me forgive you if you have to."
"Give me a goodbye, bah! You kid, don't think you can point fingers at Nai Gong just by knowing a few words. Nai Gong has long disliked you, and today it will be a lesson for you."
As he said that, Zhao Xun jumped and rushed towards Ma Xunhu.
However, he did not expect that Zhao Xun, who showed off his strength every day, did not fight with Ma Xun, who seemed to be unpretentious for a few rounds, and then became a rolling gourd and was knocked to the ground by Ma Xun.
"Your son, Nai Gong, Nai Gong killed you!"
Zhao Xun was taught a lesson in public. He was furious when he saw his face more than the sky.
He pulled out his sword casually and was about to die with Ma Xunjue.
Therefore, when he arrived here, Zhao Xu, who was standing at the gate of the courtyard, couldn't help but get angry, "Is it enough, but I still think he is not embarrassed enough!"
He walked into the courtyard with anger. Seeing this, the others in the courtyard couldn't help but feel silent.
"A Xu, I..."
"Shut up! You are really majestic when bullying others at a relative's house!"
After angrily shouting Zhao Xu, Zhao Xu glanced at Ma Xun who was standing beside him and the others in the yard, frowned, and couldn't help but shout, "Where is Zhou Ji, where has he been? I asked him to be the leader, will he do it for me like this?"
"Young master, lead him, he took people out for shopping."
‘Shopping Out’ When I heard that the old servant Zhou Ji was not ignoring him and letting Zhao Xu be embarrassed here, Zhao Xu’s anger couldn’t help but dissipate a lot.
"Hu..." Take a deep breath and glanced at the villager who was chased by Zhao Han just now.
Zhao Xu couldn't help but come to the man in person and bowed to him seriously.
