Life Winner Training Guide

Youzhou Rongcheng.

An ox cart moved slowly, and on the cart were two people dressed as scholars.

One of these two people is slightly older, and the other is not as good as the weak crown. Both of them look somewhat similar, and they obviously have a deep blood relationship with each other.

"Uncle, do you really want to leave your hometown?" The young man's voice was delicate and full of worry.

The man he called his uncle patted the boy's head and said, "Zi'er, your guard period has expired, and it's time to leave this place."

The name of this young man is Lu Zhui, and the boy who is with him is his uncle Lu Yi. Three years ago, Lu Zhui's father and Lu Yi's brother suddenly fell ill due to illness and passed away. His wife also passed away in great grief. The Lu family was not a prosperous family, and the death of both the head of the family and his wife caused the decline of the Lu family.

There is only one Lu Yi left in the Lu family who doesn't care about common affairs and is doted on by his brothers and sisters. Although he has been taught by the family for many years, he has never been in contact with common affairs. He is most interested in strange things. Such as mathematics, geology and so on.Therefore, when his elder brother passed away, he had no way to support him. When the family was rated for the first time later, the Lu family fell out of the scope of the family, changing from a noble family to a common family.

Losing the protection of the gentry status, Lu's uncle and nephew struggled to maintain their family business. Lu Yi once wanted to seek a job as an official and settle down, but Youzhou was dominated by the Wang family in Taiyuan. Now Wang Jun is the head of the Wang family. Although he was born in the direct line of the Wang family, he was the son of a maidservant. He inherited the title of the family only because his father did not leave a direct son after his death.

In the end, Wang Jun won a place in the imperial court by virtue of his family power, and he lived in such a high position as the governor of Youzhou, but his heart did not match his own rights at all. In fact, this person was not very gentle, probably because of his own background Since he is low, he looks down on the common people very much, and talks about the untouchables on weekdays, as if he is afraid that others will associate him, the governor of Youzhou, with the inferior people in his mouth.

Wang Jun has a big temper and stubborn temper, and he claims to be superior to others. Even though he has passed middle age, this character has not changed.Logically speaking, a person with personality should have some real goods in his hands to be able to be proud of himself. Under Wang Jun's rule, it is a mess, with complicated and chaotic tax items. The people who line up for each post are either cronies or well-known local celebrities. But these people let them write poems and fus, and they are still competent. Facing the complicated government affairs, how can they have the patience to deal with them.So Youzhou, which was not very stable at first, has become even more stormy now.

On weekdays, the Zhongzheng selection in Youzhou is full of flowers, and the Yaji literary meetings are held one after another, making it seem that Youzhou's literary style is at its peak, and the prosperity cannot be concealed.But in fact, in the past few years, due to natural disasters and severe drought, Youzhou has already become a place where the rich people's wine and meat are smelly and the roads are frozen to death. Countless refugees would rather ride the iron horses of the barbarians than escape from this lifeless place. .

However, Wang Jun understands that it doesn't matter if he doesn't have the support of the people, but he can't neglect military affairs and lose his military power.In the pre-Qin period, there were riots and riots. For the sake of his own life, Wang Jun still cared about military affairs.In Youzhou, apart from princes, nobles and descendants of aristocratic families, these Youzhou soldiers with very complicated composition can still live a normal life, at least they don't have to die like the refugees on the side of the road without paying attention.

Whoever gives them a bite to eat, they will follow. Most people who join the army in the world today generally have this idea, and there are even many refugees who will easily join a certain local force for a bite to eat, and then This force relies on these scattered refugees to pull up a team, which looks mighty, but in fact this kind of team can only serve as cannon fodder or win a few battles with more victories and fewer victories.Of course, there is no way for this kind of mob to be entrusted with important tasks. Once there is chaos on the battlefield or a setback in the battle, these people will not have any loyalty, and they may slip away faster than anyone else.

For Lu Yi, the general situation is such a Youzhou, and he can't stay any longer. Although the Lu family still has savings, these money and silk are just castles in the air.What's more, Youzhou's geographical location is not good, sandwiched between the traitor Liu Yuan and Xianbei, it may become a place of war anytime and anywhere.There is a saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. After his nephew's filial piety was over, Lu Yi immediately sold his property and left Youzhou with a cart full of bamboo slips and silk books.

However, the world is so big, where is the place to live and work in peace and contentment?

"Uncle, Uncle, I heard that Qingzhou opened the official examination. As long as you pass the examination, you will be admitted as a government official." The pride of the world.

"That's picking officials, not officials." Lu Yi corrected his nephew's mistake softly: "Being an official is not a glorious thing, once I do it, I'm afraid that I, the Lu family, will never have the chance to return to the ranks of the nobles. "

But Lu Zhui said: "Uncle, how does he know that Qingzhou will promote officials through scientific examination today, and will not promote officials through scientific examination tomorrow. You have to try to do anything." Speaking of this, the young man's eyes became brighter and brighter: " What's more, I heard that the governor of Qingzhou can win the eyes of Lu Yun, one of Jiangdong Shuanglu, and he must be good at it."

When it came to this topic, both uncle and nephew thought of the lofty but fatuous Wang Jun Mushou in their hometown, and felt sad and ashamed in their hearts.

In fact, who wants to leave their hometown.

"Qingzhou has Mount Tai as a natural barrier, which is much safer than Youzhou. Uncle, let's go there and try it out. Even if you don't want to be an official, it's not bad to settle down and set up property there. I heard that Qingzhou produces a few rare specialties. .” Lu Zhui chattered all the way, and finally convinced Lu Yi who was vacillating.

In fact, Sima Yue took the emperor to move the capital to Guangling, because the Chen Min rebellion had not yet been completely subdued, so he first built the palace in Jianye City.

According to Lu Yi's original idea, it is natural to go to the feet of the emperor. Although the emperor is a fool at the time, the princes and princes are not bad, and they are worthy of allegiance.But thinking that the Lu family is no longer a gentry, according to the employing thinking of those big figures, I am afraid that I don't even have the qualifications to be a retainer.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi immediately changed his original thoughts and chose to go to Qingzhou.

Go to Qingzhou to try your luck, even if you are unlucky, you should buy property yourself, and bring up your son in a safe and sound manner. As long as the Lu family produces another outstanding person, it will not be a problem to return to the gentry.

The two uncles and nephews followed the refugees, and drove the ox cart cautiously towards Qingzhou along the way.

It is strange to say that when we first set off from Rongcheng, bandits were rampant, riding horses, coming and going without a trace, even if the refugees formed an army to fight, some people were killed and killed, but they slowly walked out of Youzhou and stepped into Yizhou. On the contrary, there are far fewer such unscrupulous bandits.

And when the refugees pass through many checkpoints, the exploitation is much less. Although they still have to collect some money, everyone can afford the head money.

You must know that when you are a refugee outside, you are most afraid of encountering passes or checkpoints. Sometimes, if the checkpoints are too strict and unscrupulous, refugees would rather take a long detour than go through such places.

Lu Yi knew in his heart that these passes were probably taken care of by others, or they were simply created by Qingzhou.

Obviously, the strength of Qingzhou should not be underestimated. This place belongs to Yizhou, but the influence of Qingzhou has already extended.

Suddenly, Lu Yi's expectations were even higher.

In the process of wandering around, some refugees saw that some places in Yizhou were still peaceful, so they didn't want to travel further, so they picked some places to settle down. For them, they left Youzhou because of the severe drought. The government of a state, from top to bottom, doesn't care about these things. They take medicine every day, go for leisure, have fun, recite poems and compose Fu.And this Yizhou seems to be managed by someone.

Lu Yi naturally sees it more clearly than those ordinary illiterate farmers. Yizhou is located at the junction of the four states. In the west, there is Bingzhou Liu Yuan eyeing the Central Plains. The place where it is located is the plain area of ​​Yimapingchuan, which is most vulnerable to cavalry intrusion. In the future, I am afraid that this place will be unstable for a long time in the future.

So Lu Yi continued to walk on the journey with those refugees who had heard all kinds of rumors about Qingzhou and had already made Qingzhou their only goal.

Not long after leaving Yizhou and entering Qingzhou, I came to Taiyue Pass. This place was built with the help of Mount Tai to guard the passage between Qingzhou and Yizhou. It can be said to be a very important pass.

And it does match the importance of its geographical location. Taiyue Guan was built quite large, and there are also a lot of Qingzhou government soldiers stationed here.This feeling of boldness and heroism made many refugees who wanted to enter the customs hesitate.

Behind that checkpoint, is it a paradise on earth, or is it the same as other places, but it is just a beautification after being rumored by people.Even if it is really a paradise, what price will be paid to enter the customs?

But who knows, they didn't stay outside the customs for a long time, and a small clerk accompanied by soldiers came to them.

Lu Yi was taken care of by the refugees along the way, because those refugees hoped that there would be someone who could read and write at this time to come forward and talk.

The little official said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, I am Zhao De, the household registration secretary of Taiyueguan, who is responsible for sorting out records and re-registering everyone's household registration posts."

Then the man began to ask, where did these people come from, and who knew each other, and said that there are several places in Qingzhou where the refugees are resettled. take care of.

While asking, Secretary Zhao took out a stack of very exquisite but weird-looking white papers sewn together with thread, and then took something that looked like a pen but not a pen, and began to re-register the name cards of the refugee household registration on the white paper , This person also specifically asked everyone what they are good at, saying that if they have special skills, they can also arrange work, and they can earn some food to support their families during the slack.

The pen Zhao De used was very convenient for writing. As he kept asking, the pen in his hand recorded everything.

Seeing this, Lu Yi's mind was completely attracted by the strange-looking pen.
