Zhao Jianeng said this, Li Xin didn't feel strange, in fact, not only now, as early as the Taikang Dynasty, this dog-headed military advisor who had been with him all the time had always had the intention of provoking him to rebel.

Marquis Jing'an smiled.

"There's a question I've always wanted to ask Brother You'an."

Zhao Jia's face was calm: "Master Hou asked." ”

Li Xin got up, first glanced at Zhao Jia a few times, and then asked with a smile: "As early as a few years ago, did Brother You'an want me to rebel, it stands to reason that Brother You'an grew up reading sage books, and what he thought about in his heart should be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, why Brother You'an is thinking about how to rebel every day?" ”

Zhao Jia looked at Li Xin and took a deep breath.

"Master Hou, Shen Kuan in the capital is strict and clumsy, they also grew up reading sage books, and they may be better than me, and they are already in the phase, so they are not the same as conspiring to depose the emperor?"

"Man's ** is endless."

Zhao Jia slowly exhaled a breath and said, "When I first met Hou Ye, I mentioned my life ambition to Hou Ye. ”

Li Xin nodded, his face calm: "At that time, Brother You'an told me that you want to be an official and guard the land and the people, and you don't want to be a lifelong staff member in the Chen Guogong Mansion and hide behind others." ”

Zhao Jia smiled: "It's rare that the Hou Ye still remembers this." ”

"Don't hide it from the Hou Ye, Zhao Jia's original intention has not changed."

He said slowly: "After following Hou Ye to the west, Hou Ye also fulfilled his original promise and gave me a position in Liyang County, not hiding it from Hou Ye, in those two years, I did the county order very seriously, the gentry and villagers in Jiyang County, I still remember their names, and I personally asked them one by one in the spring and autumn harvest in the county." ”

Speaking of this, Li Xin was silent.

Zhao Jia stayed in the southwest for five years instead of him, helping him rectify the affairs of the southwest, and finally the five years were over, and he went to Liyang to do a good job as a county magistrate, and because of Li Xin's words, he left his favorite profession, resigned from the government, and came to the southwest again to help Li Xin manage the southwest political affairs.

In the blink of an eye, another five years have passed.

There are only a few five years in life, Zhao Jia has helped Li Xin take charge of southwest government affairs, and it has been ten years, and the high-spirited young man in white has a lot of gray hair on his head at this time.

Zhao Jia sat down, and after drinking a cup of tea, he first glanced at Li Xin, and then continued: "The first time I left from the southwest and returned to Beijing to do the county order, at that time I thought that the contradiction between the Hou Ye and the imperial court would end here, plus the first emperor was at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the southwest side would probably be like this in the next few decades, so I am ready to be my county commander in Liyang with peace of mind, be an official for decades, and do more things for the people. Don't ask about things between you. ”

"But...... The body of the first emperor collapsed. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Jia sighed.

"At that time, the Hou Ye was trapped in the capital by the first emperor and couldn't move, and when he entrusted me to go to the southwest again, I knew in my heart that I couldn't be an official of the Great Jin Dynasty in this life."

Zhao Jia raised his head and looked at Li Xin.

"What Hou Ye said is right, I grew up reading sage books, so I really want to stay in Dajin and be my own official honestly, even if my reputation is not obvious, mediocre or mediocre, I will leave a name in the local area in the future, leave a good reputation in my ancestral hometown, and leave an example for future generations."

"Anyway, it's better than being a thief."

"At that time, although I was in the southwest, I kept thinking about it, and I knew very well in my heart that if the southwest continued like this, it would be nothing more than the end of a Hou Mansion, and I would not necessarily be written into the history books at that time, even if it was written in the history books, it would be just two words of anti-thief."

"My father's blood will be cut off when it comes to me."

"After a long time, I figured it out."

As he spoke, Zhao Jia looked at Li Xin with a smile.

Of course, Li Xin understood what she was saying, so he took a deep breath and asked, "If you can't be a courtier of the Great Jin, you can be a founding hero?" ”

Zhao Jia nodded with a smile.

"I thought to myself, I can't eat the Ji family's food, I can still eat your Li family's food, after all, I chose the Hou Ye myself, and it's too late to regret it."

"From that time on, what I thought about in my heart was not about the southwest corner of An, but about how to change the dynasty."

Zhao Jia put his hands in his sleeves and said calmly: "As long as we change our surname in this world, we will not be thieves." ”

Hearing Zhao Jia's words, Li Xinli was quite touched.

Zhao Jia was the person who wanted to take charge of the forbidden army when Li Xin was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he had no bottom in his heart, so he went to find Old Man Ye to "borrow" it.

Later, Zhao Jia's performance made Li Xin very satisfied, he had the idea of not wanting to pay it back, and after some talking, he finally succeeded in turning Zhao Jia from the Ye family to the Li family, and since then for more than ten years, Zhao Jia followed him to the north and south, helping him do I don't know how much.

Take the southwest as an example, the thirty-one state capitals in the southwest, I don't know how many things there are every day, if it weren't for Zhao Jia, these things would have to be done by Li Xin himself, and it is unknown whether he can do it well, even if he can do it well, these things will consume a lot of his energy.

And Zhao Jia, a more brilliant reader, also has his own ambitions, Li Xin originally thought that he was also an official in Liyang, and he was also an official in the southwest, but now that he thinks about it, it is quite unfair to Zhao Jia.

Thinking of this, Hou Ye Li slowly got up and bowed to Zhao Jia.

"I'm a little self-righteous, for more than ten years, I have never felt that I owe anyone around me, and today I heard Brother You'an mention old things, and I was shocked to realize that I owe Brother You'an a lot."

He bowed his head and sighed.

"Thinking about it today, when Brother You'an left Liyang, he should have felt quite uncomfortable."

"It's my fault, Li Xin is ashamed to be a friend."

Zhao Jia hurriedly helped Li Xin up, and said with a smile: "Back then, I was still a poor scholar with no merit, so Hou Ye promised me that in the future, at least let me do the position of the six servants, although Zhao Jia is not the six squires today, but as a strategic envoy, he can be regarded as a feudal official, and the Hou Ye does not owe me anything." ”

He smiled at Li Xin and asked, "Master Hou hasn't answered my question yet. ”

"If there is a change in the world, will Lord Hou go out of Shu to chase the deer?"

This time, Li Xin didn't hesitate too much, he reached out and patted Zhao Jia's shoulder and smiled.

"Brother You'an has said so, how can I shrink my head and tail again?"

"Brother You'an doesn't say it, I also know in my heart that the southwest corner of Bi'an will never last long, not to mention the Hou Mansion that has only been more than 30 years, even the Cheng Han of the year is only sixty or seventy years old."

"I originally had no idea of competing for the world, but now the Ji family, the landlord, no longer works for us."

Li Houye slowly exhaled a breath and spoke in a deep voice.

"That being the case, it is natural to give it a go and be the landlord yourself."

He looked at Zhao Jia and smiled brightly.

"If there is really that day, Brother You'an can really show what he has learned and govern the country and the world."

Zhao Jia followed with a smile.

"The eldest husband is not born with five tripods, and he is cooked with five tripods when he dies."

"In this life, my subordinates are betting on Hou Ye!"
