Chapter 876: Veteran Minister Jia Xu

After Jia Xu got off the car, Liu Zhang did not greet him too much, but exchanged a few simple greetings with the officials who came with him one by one.

After everything was arranged properly, Liu Zhang pulled Jia Xu into a carriage, and then the team slowly set off for Chang'an.

Looking at Jia Xu's slightly aged face in the carriage, Liu Zhang was very moved.

Jia Xu will soon be fifty-five years old, perhaps this old age belongs to this age.

But thinking of Jia Xu's radiance before the expedition, this old age is not normal!

It should be that Jia Xu has been too tired for the past two years!

This time he went north to fight, Liu Zhang mobilized too much power from Yizhou.

Whether military or human.

But more importantly is military power!

Almost all the elite were taken away, and 40,000 county soldiers were forcibly transferred later.

At that time, Yizhou was in a state of extreme emptiness.

If Jia Xu hadn't been in charge, Liu Zhang wouldn't have dared to do this!

While Jia Xu had to supply Liu Zhang's needs, he also had to maintain the internal stability of Yizhou.

His eyes must monitor the movements of Yizhou all the time, and stifle any treason in the cradle!

In history, Jia Xu lived to be seventy-six years old, but that was when Jia Xu was wise enough to protect himself and didn't worry about anything.

But this Jia Xu in front of him, since he surrendered, Liu Zhang has never let him worry about a single thing!

Thinking of Zhuge Liang in history being exhausted to death, Liu Zhang became worried for a while, lest Jia Xu die early!

"Wenhe, you have worked hard for the past two years!"

Liu Zhang's words immediately refreshed Jia Xu, as if she was a few years younger.

"It is a great honor for the veteran to contribute to the great cause of the Lord!"

Veteran...

Liu Zhang was deeply touched and couldn't help feeling a little melancholy.

Jia Xu can be called a veteran not only in terms of age, but even in terms of the time he spent with Liu Zhang.

Maybe it was just an impulse that made Jia Xu work hard for Liu Zhang for eighteen years!

"Wenhe, in the past, Luoyang's policy theory, planning the great cause of revival! After eighteen years, it finally achieved results!"

"With our joint efforts, we have taken a big step forward!"

Jia Xu nodded again and again, her eyes full of excitement.

I think Liu Zhang was just a general in the past, without any foundation, and his troops had just reached ten thousand!

In Luoyang, there is a crisis everywhere, and life is in danger at all times!

However, their monarchs and ministers walked all the way, cutting through thorns and thorns, crushing all obstacles!

Enter Hanzhong, destroy Zhang Lu, and take down the counties of Bashu one after another!

Ping Nanzhong, take over the southern barbarians, and eventually become a prince, with more than 100,000 soldiers!

Destroy Ma Teng, destroy Han Sui, kill Qiang Hu, and slaughter Xianbei, all occupying the land in Guanzhong, the foundation of the great cause has been completed!

From General Later, General Wei, step by step to today's Duke Qin!

The boy who was not as weak as the crown in the past has finally grown into the number one hero in the world!

"My lord has gone through hardships and is worthy of today's achievements!"

"Yeah, I have gone through hardships! This journey is bumpy and difficult, and I am lucky to have your help!"

How difficult this journey is, perhaps only Liu Zhang feels the deepest.

Maybe there is no Tang Seng's ninety-nine and eighty-one difficulties, but hardships and setbacks are always accompanied by Liu Zhang.

Fortunately, I finally agreed with a sentence, all hardships come!

All the hardships Liu Zhang has suffered have finally paid off!

Jia Xu looked into Liu Zhang's eyes and shook his head slightly.

"No, the main contributor to today's success is not me, nor Gongda, nor Han Sheng, it's evil."

"Everything is due to the lord himself! If it weren't for the lord's firm belief, there is absolutely no way to get to where he is today!"

Looking at Jia Xu's unusually firm eyes, Liu Zhang knew that he was definitely speaking from the heart.

But Liu Zhang smiled, and then shook his head.

"Wenhe, even though I said so, I can't attribute it to me personally!"

"From the separatist rule of Hanzhong to the domination of the Northwest, it is inseparable from the efforts of everyone!"

Jia Xu's eyes showed relief, and there was no worry in his heart.

"My lord, it's really a blessing for Qin to think so!"

Liu Zhang is still so humble, and his mind is still so calm.

The frequent victories did not make him lose himself, and the great power did not make him lose his mind.

Based on this alone, Jia Xu knows that the end of Qin is definitely not here.

Qin State...

Liu Zhang couldn't help laughing out loud, this title is really a bit strange.

"Wenhe, come to Chang'an this time, do you understand what I mean?"

Jia Xu's expression changed, and he looked at Liu Zhang with a half-smile.

"My lord, it's better to give the old minister a idle job, let's take care of the rest of the world..."

old fox!

Liu Zhang cursed secretly, and pointed at Jia Xu maliciously.

"You have a good idea! Once you get on my thief ship, how can you get off easily?"

"The whole three prefectures of Yi, Yong, and Liang add up, no one can live without me, and I can't live without you!"

Jia Xu clearly knew that this was a compliment against Liu Zhang's will, but she still couldn't restrain her emotion.

With such a master, even if he was exhausted, he would have no complaints!

"Hehe, the old minister is just talking..."

"If the lord has any orders, the old minister will naturally obey them!"

Liu Zhang nodded in satisfaction.

"Wenhe, Yizhou Biejia's burden is too light, and you will have to shoulder the entire Qin State in the future!"

When Jia Xu heard this, a strange look flashed in her eyes, and then she straightened her back.

It felt like telling Liu Zhang that I can bear more!

"Don't worry, my lord, the old minister will definitely share my worries for my lord!"

"By the way, Wenhe, do you have a candidate for the position of Yizhou Biejia?"

Since Yizhou Mu was concurrently held by Liu Zhang, it was impossible for him to leave Chang'an for Yizhou.

Therefore, don't take the post of Yizhou, in fact, he already holds the right of Yizhou animal husbandry.

It's just that because of Liu Zhang's trust in Jia Xu, he can hand over the military and political power to Jia Xu.

In the future, after the change of people, Liu Zhang will only transfer the government affairs. As for the military power, it will naturally be separated.

In this situation in China, Liu Zhang absolutely does not allow it to appear under his own rule.

"My lord, you are deliberately testing the veteran!"

Facing Jia Xu's question, Liu Zhang pretended not to know.

"Wenhe, why did you say that?"

"My lord has called all the outstanding talents from Yizhou to Chang'an. Isn't it obvious to whom the position of Yizhou Biejia will be handed over?"

Liu Zhang couldn't help giving a thumbs up, and sure enough nothing could be hidden from Jia Xu.

The older you get, the more bewitching it must be especially suitable for Jia Xu!

Liu Zhang recruited almost all the outstanding talents from the aristocratic families in Yizhou to Chang'an.

At present, none of the remaining aristocratic people in Yizhou has special talents.

The great talent left by Liu Zhang is Dong He, a native of Zhijiang in Nanjun, Jingzhou.

"Wen He, Dong He has been working under you for these years, you should know him very well, right?"

When Dong He was mentioned, Jia Xu obviously had a hint of liking for him.

"It's really admirable that the lord knows people!"

"Dong Youzai has both ability and political integrity, he is clean and honest, and he is much calmer than others when interacting with foreigners!"

"Although Dong Youzai is not from Yizhou, his talent and virtue are extremely admirable!"

"Dong He will take over Yizhou Biejia, and he will definitely be able to handle Yizhou's affairs well."

With Jia Xu's approval, Liu Zhang strengthened his belief.

As the father of Dong Yun, one of the four prime ministers of the Shu Han Dynasty in history, his talent is already impressive.

In particular, he has been an official for more than 20 years, and his family has never been corrupt for a stone of grain until his death, which makes Liu Zhang admire him even more.

I believe that with Dong He as the leader of Yizhou, it will definitely make the officialdom clean and clean!
