Chapter 334: Drunk to persuade you to sit down at the table or into the urn?
The bloody disaster in Anlai County was just an incident worth mentioning in Luo Yao's border guarding career. The more than 700 heads may be just an insignificant number to him. In Fang Jie's previous life, he often saw a sentence saying that someone who killed millions of people was a hero If being a hero was measured by the number of people killed, Luo Yao seemed to be qualified.
He has been in the army for so many years. Which wars, big and small, have not been filled with blood?
In just the battle to destroy Shang, from crossing the Yangtze River to Yongzhou City, Luo Yao's left vanguard killed at least hundreds of thousands of people, not just the Shang army, but also civilians who dared to resist and those who were against the Sui army. A wealthy family with a heart. After conquering Yongzhou, Luo Yao only massacred the Shang royal family, including anyone who could be related to them. Luo Yao killed tens of thousands more. After that, he would defend the southwest and send troops to attack the barbarians, killing at least several thousand people every year. The Ruyi Sect rebelled, and he massacred 160,000 people in a county In total, he had already killed more than a million people.
So for him, these more than 700 people were not something worth remembering at all.
On the afternoon when the left vanguard beheaded the more than 700 heads, Luo Qiu, the governor of Pingshang Road, also arrived in Anlai County. This second-grade border official looks much friendlier than Luo Yao. He always smiles and has kind eyes, as if he is just a gentle elder.
" However, Fang Jie also knew that this was just an appearance. As the governor of Pingshangdao, being able to live in peace with Luo Yao for more than ten years showed the man's cultivation and government.
He took office because he was dissatisfied with Luo Yao and tried to take back the real rights of Pingshangdao to his own hands. As a result, he was dismissed by the court after less than two years in the governor's seat. It is said that he has been growing vegetables in his hometown since then, and has never been seen again. Not enabled.
After Luo Qiu took office, he refused to compete and was willing to play a supporting role as a second-rank official. He would support whatever Luo Yao did and there would never be any conflict. Not only that, when the governor promoted and appointed local officials, he would also make a list and send it to Luo Yao personally to ask if it was suitable.
In order to maintain the huge army of the left avant-garde, Luo Yao must withhold local taxes. The former governor used this as a reason to write a letter to impeach Luo Yao, but instead of succeeding, his career came to an end. This Lord Luo Qiu was different. If Luo Yao said he wanted to increase the amount of money, he would add it. If Luo Yao said he wanted to allocate food, he would allocate the food. It was like Luo Yao's microphone, but it was much easier to use than a microphone.
But for such a cowardly person, Fang Jie always felt that it was not easy.
Luo Qiu looks to be about fifty years old. He comes from a family of Jianghuai Dao. The Luo family is also one of the most famous families in Jiangnan. After Taizong pacified Nanchen, the Luo family was one of the first families in Jiangnan to move closer to the Yang royal family. Therefore, many important figures have emerged over the past hundred years, such as Nayan Luo Dezheng during the reign of Zhenzong, and Luo Dong, the general of Zuowei who currently guards Eastern Xinjiang.
There are many talented people in this generation of the Luo family. Luo Qiu sat in the position of the second-grade governor, and Luo Dong took the position of the third-grade general. There are also many people who are local officials and have profound background.
How could someone who comes from such a family and becomes the leader of the family really be a submissive loser?
Fang Jie did a lot of research before coming to the southwest, and got to know Luo Yao, Luo Qiu, and the local officials of Heping Shangdao, the generals of the left avant-garde. This Luo Qiu was also a strange person, and Fang Jie was surprised when he learned about his past experience. This is the only governor-general who has been demoted and transferred since the founding of the Sui Dynasty. He was previously the governor of Gyeonggi Province, a super official from the first rank!
Of the twenty-four provinces of the Sui Dynasty, only the governor of Gyeonggi Province was of the first rank, and the others were of the second rank. Moreover, the importance of Gyeonggi Province is far beyond that of other provinces. Some people once predicted that he is very likely to make up for Nayan's shortcomings, but his qualifications and prestige are still slightly insufficient. No one thought that he would take the initiative to submit a letter to ask for transfer. Of course, the late emperor must have talked to him behind the scenes.
When he was transferred from Gyeonggi Province to Pingshang Province, his official position was reduced by one level. But he received the Duke's salary with the title of County Marquis! There is even more food than the average prince!
It is said that the late emperor once gave him a gold medal to avoid death, but no one confirmed it.
Precisely because this man¡¯s past was so incredible, Fang Jie was wary of him from the beginning.
Luo Qiu is very short, only about 1.65 meters tall. When he got off the carriage, he was smiling all over his face, without any airs of a second-grade official. When he saw Fang Jie, he immediately came up to him, took Fang Jie's hand and greeted him.
"Is the journey from the imperial capital to here smooth?"
He took Fang Jie¡¯s hand and walked inside, smiling gently as he walked.
Fang Jie quickly replied: "My lord, the journey back to you has gone smoothly. It's just that the journey is a little slower than expected. I feel guilty for letting you miss me."
"You can't say that. My walk from Chang'an to Yongzhou was slower than yours. I fell ill not long after leaving Gyeonggi Province. I took more medicine along the way than I did in the first half of my life combined." After arriving here, I became even more acclimated. If the general hadn't sent the doctor in the mansion to take care of me for half a month, I might not have been able to get up. "
Luo Yao smiled and said, "When will you pay back the medical fees you owe me for more than ten years?"
Luo Qiu rolled her eyes at him and said, "How do you settle the bill for stealing a bottle of old wine from my house last month?"
Luo Yaodao: "You are stingy. You only drank one pot when you invited me to drink. How can that be enough? You are a stingy person who refuses to take it out, so I have to get it myself."
"Bahthat's stealing!"
"You report to the official."
Luo Yao shook his head and left first, his face full of pride.
Luo Qiu glared at his back and said with a smile: "This guy is the most rogue!"
Fang Jie smiled along with him, but couldn't help but sigh in his heart: One has a red face and one has a white face. I don't know how to sing this scene The general and the governor showed affection in front of me. This gesture was too much. Enough.

When Fang Jie was a child in his previous life, he loved listening to his grandfather humming a few lines from Peking opera. Later, after listening to more pop songs, he recalled that the lingering charm of his childhood was the most satisfying. Although he is a pseudo-fancier, he often joins in the fun with a group of elders and ladies in the park and sings a piece of "White Gate Tower" in an upright tone.
When there are many elderly people in the park, Fang Jie will fill the gaps. A hero who can shout a few murderous words, has a son, a tiger, a leopard, a mighty army, the earth is shaking, and the mountains are shaking, trying to sweep away the smoke.
Of course, he also sang a gathered wolf, dominated the princes, and swallowed the state county.
The more you listen to plays and sing more, you will naturally be able to act.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off. Xu Chu, who has sung the role of a tiger and leopard with a beard, has also sung the role of Chen Gong. The roles changed in just a moment. Since arriving in this life, he has seen too many intrigues and fights, and has become a bloody mess. At such a young age, Fang Jie has become an old actor.
"How is your Majesty?"
Luo Qiu personally filled a glass of wine for Fang and asked.
Fang Jie quickly stood up and thanked him, and then replied: "Your Excellency, you should know your Majesty better than I do. The lamp in the Dongnuan Pavilion has not been turned off before Chou hour, and it must be on again before Mao hour. There has never been such a diligent emperor or minister in the past dynasties. I feel distressed and guilty at the same time. Your Majesty is like this. How dare the people below be so lazy and negligent?"
"But despite the hard work, His Majesty is in good spirits."
Luo Qiu sighed after hearing this and said: "Master Xiaofang's words are true. Your Majesty is a sage monarch who has only met once in all eternity. Meeting a wise monarch as an official in this life is the greatest blessing in life."
Luo Yao listened to the two of them talking, poured a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
Fang Jie stood up and filled up the wine for him: "The general has a good capacity for drinking."
Luo Yao glanced at him, and for some reason Fang Jie felt that this look was slightly different from the way Luo Yao looked at him before.
"Most of the people in the army like to drink, and they can drink it. It's just that it's rare for the military law office to have a free drink on weekdays. Although I am a general, I can't break the precept at will. In the past, Mr. Luo occasionally showed kindness, but today it is through Xiao Fang Your Majesty¡¯s light, otherwise how could I be greedy?¡±
He picked it up and said, "A toast to Mr. Xiao Fang."
This kind of Luo Yao seems to be a different person from the Luo Yao who killed people calmly before. Fang Jie unconsciously thought of Huai Qiugong's words again, and his heart couldn't help but sink every time he thought of it. Although Luo Yao didn't smile when he first met him, he spoke enthusiastically. Later, Leng Ao's harsh side was revealed, killing people like hemp. Immediately after sitting down to drink today, there was another smile on his face, but it was this smile that made Fang Jie the most uneasy.
Ye Jinnan said that Luo Yao rarely smiled.
Even when he is happy, he remains as calm as ever.
But now he is smiling freely.
"May the general live long!"
Fang Jie picked up the wine glass and said.
"May your Majesty live longer!"
Luo Yao and Luo Qiu said something at the same time, and then drank the wine in one gulp.
"Master Xiaofang is also a heroic person."
Luo Qiu said with a smile.
Fang Jie said: "Xiaguan also came from a military background. When we were at the border, he often secretly drank with his colleagues. Fan Gu was suffering from the bitter cold, and it was too cold to do anything. If he didn't drink a few strong drinks when he went out to kill thieves, Once it enters the intestines, one loses energy. Although the military law prohibits drinking, the general above turns a blind eye. "
When he said this, heHis face darkened: "It's a pity that all my colleagues died in the battle, but I am the only one who survives Now the king's army is in the northwest to attack the Mongolian invaders, and I also want to wear armor and carry a horizontal sword to jump over the Langru Mountain to avenge my colleagues. This time At that time, I could drink freely, but the brothers in the past never saw each other again Alas."
"Men should join the army!"
Luo Yao glanced at him and said calmly: "Don't be sad if a soldier dies on the battlefield. If you want to wear the armor again, it won't be difficult. If you really want to kill the enemy, your majesty will definitely make it happen."
Fang Jie sighed in his heart, thinking that this man's city was really deep. Yesterday he tested him with his family background, and today he tested him with Fan Gu, but Luo Yao didn't show the slightest change. Fang Jie's previous test was to see if Luo Yao was interested in his life experience, but Luo Yao just mentioned it in one word. This time, he wanted to test whether Luo Yao knew about the defeat in the Northwest, but Luo Yao still exposed it without leaving any trace.
"The general loves talents the most, and Master Xiao Fang is a rare talent that is rare in a hundred years I think it would be better for the general to write to the court and ask your majesty to assign Mr. Xiao Fang to the left vanguard. With the support of the general, Mr. Xiao Fang The days of success will not last long.¡±
Luo Qiu said it as if he was joking, but Fang Jie couldn't help but feel nervous.
What does it mean?
Luo Yao wants me to play left midfielder?
Just when Fang Jie was surprised, Luo Qiu took a sip of wine and said as if he was a little drunk: "I heard that although Mr. Xiao Fang cannot practice, his martial arts skills are amazing. He was excellent in nine subjects in the Yanwu Academy, especially the martial arts. People praise you. You are young and promising, but if you can get some advice from the general, you will be of great use."
After saying this, Fang Jie was immediately sure that Luo Yao really wanted to move him to the left midfield! Of course he couldn't say it himself, so Luo Qiu pretended to be drunk and said it.
