The Rebellious Officials and Traitors of the Late Han Dynasty

Chapter 14 Jia Xu
In the Pingjin Duwei Mansion, Jia Xu, who was only in his forties, looked as calm as ever. After leaving the customs, he returned to the mansion. His eldest son, Jia Mu, stepped forward and removed the armor from Jia Xu's body.

It has to be said that the literati of this era are true literati, who mount their horses to kill the enemy and dismount their horses to govern the country. Paying equal attention to both civil and military affairs, with a sword hanging at his waist, he walks around the world with a chivalrous heart.

Although Jia Xu was born as a scholar, he was not incompetent.

"Father, just now I heard that the Prime Minister was almost assassinated by Cao Cao?" Jia Mu was curious.

Jia Xu snorted. Pingjin Pass is one of the gateways to Luoyang. A large number of business travelers come in and out of this place every day. The information is very well-informed. What happened in Luoyang City in the morning can be reported to Pingjin Pass in the afternoon. If the Jia family and his son want to get Luoyang The news is a very relaxing thing.

"What do you think of Cao Cao?" Jia Xu asked, testing his son.

"A hero of a generation." Jia Mu said without thinking.

Jia Xu shook his head after hearing this and said: "Xu Zijiang is very accurate in judging people. He is the traitor of the generation. When Cao Mengde decided to assassinate Dong, he had already succeeded. Dong Zhuo died and Cao Cao was famous all over the world; Dong Zhuo did not Even if he dies, Cao Cao can still be heard all over the world. I didn’t expect this!"

Jia Mu's eyes showed surprise, and he couldn't help but said: "Father, do you mean that Cao Mengde did this for himself?"

"Perhaps part of it is for the world! But more of it is for himself." Jia Xu said quietly: "But even if it is for himself, it doesn't matter. In this era, who is not doing it for himself?"

Jia Xu himself is a typical egoist. For his own life, he doesn't care even if the world is in chaos.

"By the way, father, someone in the capital said that the prime minister has a general who can compete with Lu Bu." Jia Mu suddenly thought of something again, and a trace of curiosity appeared on his face.

"The general who competes with Lu Bu? Who is that?" Jia Xu's expression changed after hearing this.

"Father is surprised?" Jia Mu was surprised by his father's performance.

"Of course, such a person may change the situation in the court in the future, and even change the fate of the prime minister." Jia Xu Zhengrong said.

"There used to be a Lu Bu. The prime minister would set his sights on Lu Bu and must have great trust in Lu Bu. This situation was very dangerous for both the prime minister and Lu Bu."

"But now there is one person who can resist Lu Bu. The two of them check and balance each other, which makes the Xiliang Army more stable. If outsiders want to destroy the Xiliang Army, they have to deal with three people, which is very difficult."

A poisonous person is a poisonous person. His keen vision is difficult for ordinary people to compete with. He probably said so much because he was teaching his son. Under normal circumstances, Jia Xu would never have analyzed the matter so clearly.

Jia Mu just nodded in understanding after hearing this. The situation in the next few years was still too profound for Jia Mu. Jia Mu didn't know whether his father's analysis was correct.

Jia Xu looked at his son's appearance and could only sigh. It seemed impossible for his son to inherit his mantle. He was just a middle-aged man. In the future, he would only be a prefect at most.

"By the way, the Prime Minister made him the captain of the Xiaoqi Camp." Jia Mu said quickly. There was also a hint of envy and jealousy in his words.

At a young age, Qin Shou had already become a captain with a rank of two thousand shi, while his father was only a captain with a rank of 600 shi. There was a huge difference between them.

"The Prime Minister is brilliant."

Jia Xu nodded, and immediately understood what Dong Zhuo meant, which was to let the other party and Lu Bu check and balance each other. Only in this way can he ensure his own safety, maximize the other party's talents, and expand his own strength.

He thought that Dong Zhuo was already stupid, but now it seems that the other party still has some brains.

Dong Zhuo has Xiliang Cavalry, Bingzhou Cavalry, and now there is another Xiaoqi Battalion. He could see that Dong Zhuo was actually wary of Lu Bu. Otherwise, he would have put the Xiaoqi camp under Lu Bu instead of setting up a separate army.

"What's that person's name?" Jia Xu suddenly asked.

In his heart, he suddenly had a hunch that he might deal with this person in the future.

"Sir, outside the mansion, someone who calls himself Qin Shou brought it to pay homage."

At this time, the concierge burst in with a greeting card in hand.

"Qin Shou? Who is it?" Jia Xu frowned.

"Father, father, Xiaoqi Colonel." Jia Mu's eyes widened, looking in disbelief.

"Captain Xiaoqi? Qin Shou?" Jia Xu looked at his son's appearance and immediately understood the meaning of Jia Mu's words. He glanced at the greeting card again. Unexpectedly, he was just chanting to the other party, and the other party came to him like this. Came to the door.

"Let's go and greet him quickly."

Jia Xu did not dare to neglect and quickly led Jia Mu out to welcome him.

When he left the house, he saw a young man wearing armor, with a sword hanging at his waist, and a handsome face, looking at something in front of the house.

"The last general, Jia Xu, the captain of Pingjin and his son, respectfully welcomes the captain of the school. It is a great honor for Xu to come to my humble residence."

Jia Xu's face was filled with smiles.

He hid the surprise in his heart.

"A humble house? No matter how high the mountain is, there will be immortals and spirits. No matter how deep the water is, there will be spirits. Wherever there are dragons, there will be spirits. Although the Pingjin Duwei Mansion is dilapidated, it would be the same if there was an unparalleled genius living in it."

Qin Shou was also looking at Jia Xu. He was a man in his forties with an ordinary appearance, a peaceful complexion, and deep wrinkles on his forehead. If Qin Shou hadn't known Jia Xu's name and origin, he probably wouldn't have thought that he was a wise man. .

"Don't dare, don't dare." Jia Xu's heart tightened and she quickly replied. The head is lower.

The five realms of counselors are to seek oneself, seek people, seek troops, seek the country, and seek the world. Only those who can achieve all five levels are the top advisers. Jia Xu is a person who can take care of all five, and he is also the most likely adviser to Qin Shou at this stage. .

"A certain family in Luoyang heard that Captain Pingjin and Cao Mengde were on good terms, so I came to see for myself." Qin Shou looked at Jia Xu, and when he saw the other person's face was calm, he suddenly opened his mouth and said.

Jia Xu's complexion changed drastically after hearing this, and his originally cloudy eyes were filled with light.

When he first listened to Qin Shou's words, he thought that the other party was here to recruit him. When he was just thinking about how to reject the other party, he didn't expect that the other party suddenly brought up this topic.

Dong Zhuo hated Cao Cao deeply. Once he knew that he was connected with Cao Cao, he would definitely kill himself and even his own son.

"This person is really cruel."

Jia Xu was angry, but there was nothing he could do about it, because there was no one behind him! It is very easy for the other party to kill you. He was very angry. The Qin Shou in front of him was uneasy about acting rationally.

Now how to do?
