Chapter 139 The first meeting of Guo Jia and Zhao Yun
"Where is the reckless man coming from? Go away quickly, don't disturb my drunkenness!" Xiahou Lan wanted to ask if she knew the sick young man, but suddenly a stupid young man came over. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and pushed Niu Geng impatiently, but he saw that Niu Geng was not moving at all, but he was caught off guard and almost showed his ugly appearance.
"Ha, there are still some skills!" Xiahou Lan raised her eyebrows, and said with interest in her eyes, "Then how about I will compete with you?"
"You... can't do it." Shaking his head, Niu Geng looked at Zhao Yun seriously: "I heard from someone that you are very strong and want to compete with you."
A few black lines appeared on Zhao Yun's forehead. He was very strong? Who heard this? Why didn't I know?
The generals are naturally much stronger than ordinary people, not to mention that Zhao Yun is already on the verge of top military generals. Even if Lu Bu faces him, he has to be cautious. However, Zhao Yun has always taken a dexterous and fast path, and his strength is not his strength.
But the man in front of him had a little simplicity, which made Zhao Yun unable to get angry. Zhao Yun was not as good as Xiahou Lan, so he could only bow and say, "I'm afraid this brother has recognized the wrong person."
On the other side, Xiahou Lan was furious by Niu Geng's almost ignorant attitude. She stepped forward and grabbed Niu Geng's clothes and said, "Come on, come on, I will definitely pass with me first. I can't even win, and I want to compete with Zilong?"
"If you win, you can compete with him?" Niu Geng was a little stubborn. Sometimes he wanted to be rude. No one except Liu Xie said. He recognized Zhao Yun. At this moment, he asked immediately when he heard Xiahou Lan say this.
"Okay, if you can beat me, Zilong will compete with you!" Xiahou Lan blurted out without thinking. This guy is so annoying.
Zhao Yun was on the side, listening to his friend betrayed him without hesitation, and could only smile bitterly. At this moment, he could only retreat aside and watch the development of things.
There was already a large circle of people around. Now that the disaster in Chang'an has just passed, the people have no spare food, let alone money. Those who can come here are all famous tourists from the world. They are all bold masters. When they see someone who meets you, they are not afraid, but they also come here in a hurry.
Guo Jia squinted his eyes at Zhao Yun in the crowd, and said, "Well, he was as motionless as a mountain, with a bit of general demeanor, and his eyes were a little sharp. Although his words were humble, he had a sense of arrogance, but he didn't know how brave he was.
"Come on!" Xiahou Lan made a gesture to stretch out her hand, making a move of foot strength.
"Okay!" Niu Geng grabbed Xiahou Lan's palm, and the two of them pressed against each other and their arms were pressed at the same time.
"Come here!" Niu Geng exerted force suddenly, and Xiahou Lan felt a huge force surged from her arm. If it were skills, Niu Geng Ruozhen and Xiahou Lan would probably not be able to hold on to the three-way match. After all, his foundation was not as good as a human. He had brute force and did not have much actual combat, but if it was better to compare strength, Liu Xie had never seen anyone who could compete with Niu Geng in terms of strength.
After struggling to support for a while, Xiahou Lan was pulled over by Niu Geng, and then ignored Xiahou Lan with an ugly face, turned his head to look at Zhao Yun and said, "Come on!"
The group of people around him started to clamor for fear that the world would be in chaos. Zhao Yun looked at Xiahou Lan with an ugly face, and had to smile bitterly, clasped his fists to Niu Geng and said, "This is the offense."
After saying that, he learned the movements of the two and pulled his hands together with Niu Geng.
"Hmph" Niu Geng used force violently. Zhao Yun felt that the man was very strong. He quickly pressed his body down to stabilize the center of gravity. At the same time, he handed forward along Niu Geng's strength and removed Niu Geng's strength. Taking advantage of Niu Geng's strength when he was exhausted and his new strength had not yet developed, he suddenly leaned back and burst out all his strength in an instant. Niu Geng was caught off guard and was pulled unsteadily by Zhao Yun and staggered out.
"Take the offer!" Zhao Yun held Niu Geng with the opportunity and said with a smile.
Niu Geng looked confused, and always felt that he had no time to use his strength, so he was pulled down by the other party. His chest was a little stuffy and he didn't know what to say when he heard this.
"Zilong is worthy of being my Hehe. Bei is brave and powerful!" Guo Jia came up at this time and bowed to Zhao Yun.
"Sir, do you know me?" Zhao Yun looked at Guo Jia without any impression. The other party's accent sounded like a person from the Central Plains, not like Hebei's accent, and said in a little puzzled manner.
"Zilong forgot that he had a job under Yuan Shao and had a meeting with him. Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao." Guo Jia pulled Zhao Yun familiarly and said.
"It turns out to be Mr. Fengxiao, Zhao Yun is polite." Zhao Yun suddenly realized that he had heard of the name Guo Jia. He did have been a lie under Yuan Shao at the beginning, but Guo Jia was a famous scholar, and Zhao Yun was not even a military marquis, so he was not qualified to meet Guo Jia. He did not doubt that he was now, and he quickly said to him.
In this era, the identity of a famous scholar is enough to be able to eat all over the world.
It's really wrong.
Guo Jia admired his talent a little. He just heard Zhao Yun's accent and made a random mistake. Even if he said it wrong, he could still make a lie. He said that he thought Zhao Yun had gone to Yuan Shao's command. Anyway, he didn't think that Zhao Yun was like ordinary people. With Yuan Shao's reputation at the time, he didn't believe that anyone would not go and see it. Anyway, in order to make friends with a powerful general and cheat some heroes to drink, Guo Jia completely abandoned his integrity and other things.
"Why are you not in Jizhou, but you come to Chang'an instead?" Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan were pulled aside by Guo Jia's familiar face. Zhao Yun asked in confusion.
"Then Yuan Benchu has a great reputation, but in fact he is generous on the outside and is not the leader of accomplishing things." Guo Jia curled his lips.
Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan felt a little sympathetic when they heard this. They had been under Yuan Shao for a while. They were not weak in their abilities, but they were often afraid and suppressed by their superiors. Moreover, they were not just one. At the bottom, they could see the corruption of that force more thoroughly.
"This is..." After chatting for a few words, it was particularly speculative. At this moment, Zhao Yun looked at Niu Geng behind Guo Jia, with a little curiosity in his eyes. Seeing that Niu Geng's attitude towards Guo Jia was obviously not very much like a guard of a family general, but at this moment he was standing behind Guo Jia, acting as a guard, which made people a little confused.
"This one was sent by Your Majesty." Guo Jia was a little helpless when he heard this. He could naturally understand Liu Xie's kindness, but when he sent such a fool to come over, Guo Jia maliciously guessed whether Liu Xie could not stand Niu Geng's stupidity, so he just found an excuse to send him to him.
"Your Majesty!" Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan stood up after hearing this, looking at Guo Jia and Niu Geng behind Guo Jia in surprise.
"Don't panic." Guo Jia looked around. Fortunately, the restaurant was very lively at this moment. No one noticed it. He waved his hand and whispered: "There is no official title yet. But that day, he came to Chang'an and had a few encounters with Your Majesty. His conversation was quite speculative. Seeing that I was weak and the city of Chang'an was a little chaotic recently, General Niu Geng sent me to protect me."
"Sir, I think it's because of your strategy." Zhao Yun couldn't help but bow and praise him when he heard this, and then asked hesitantly: "I wonder if I am really as wise as the legendary one?"
Guo Jia looked at Zhao Yun and naturally knew what Zhao Yun asked, shook his head and said, "The rumors in the market are so untrue. However, today Zi has the resources for Zhongxing. Jia doesn't know how long Zilong has been to Chang'an, but Zilong knows that more than a month ago, the land dragon turned over in this Guanzhong area, and Chang'an City was almost ruined."
"Oh?" Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan were stunned when they heard this. Zhao Yun nodded and said, "Yun has also heard some rumors, but he just saw the Chang'an City now..."
It was a bit dilapidated, but Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan had also seen the world, and some disaster-stricken areas had also seen it. Although Chang'an City was dilapidated, it looked like the disaster-stricken areas in their impression.
"This is the extraordinary thing about Your Majesty." Guo Jia reached out to take the wine bowl from Zhao Yun, took a sip, and swallowed it barely, but did not drink it anymore. After drinking the nectar produced by Liu Xie, the wine from Yuelai Inn was originally good, but it tasted better than water at this time.
Guo Jia told Zhao Yunwei some of Liu Xie's actions. Xiahou Lan on the side felt a little confused and looked so powerful. Looking at Zhao Yun again, she looked thoughtful. Guo Jia couldn't help but nodded in her heart. It seemed that her vision was indeed good. After tempering this person, she might not be able to become a rank-level official who was the only one in the future. She also had a stronger impression of this person.
"Your Majesty's governance method...is... not appropriate." Zhao Yun thought about it carefully for a moment, and always felt that Liu Xie's governance method was a bit too careful and had a great distrust of his ministers.
"It is precisely because of this plan that there is a sign of great governance in Guanzhong today!" Guo Jia laughed and said, "Zilong only saw the waste of manpower, but it can be seen that it is precisely because of this linked supervision mechanism that there has been almost no corruption case in Guanzhong's disaster relief this time."
"Is this true?" Zhao Yun looked at Guo Jia with some disbelief. In the past, he could always hear someone who was corrupt and went against his conscience to earn money from the people's life-saving money. He was always angry, but he could do nothing. Now he heard that Liu Xie could do this under the rule of the emperor, and the administration was clear and clear."
"This has nothing to do with the Qingming administration of officials." Guo Jia sneered: "Human nature is greedy, and wealth is touching. If there is no corresponding constraint, any honest official mentioned by Zilong may become a corrupt official."
"I don't dare to agree with what the sir said." Zhao Yun said solemnly. He believed that there are still officials in this world who are sincere in serving the people.
"Maybe there are, but not many. However, when Your Majesty's example occurs, it eliminates the corruption of most officials from the root. This is to govern the country. Zilong said that even if there is, it will only benefit the people of the country, and it will not be of great benefit to the country. Your Majesty's actions can benefit the people of the world. Jia really agrees with what Your Majesty said." Guo Jia couldn't help but think of some of the things he discussed with Liu Xie these days.
"What do you mean?" Zhao Yun couldn't help but say strangely when he heard this.
