"Something happened in Yizhou."
At first, no one believed it and did not take it seriously, but a few days later, the prefect of Pingyang received news that Chenli County in Yizhou was occupied by rebellious farmers. The area within a hundred miles was all charcoal, and the corpses of civilians were everywhere. The stored grain in Chenli County had been completely looted.
This group of farmers, led by the commoners, are still heading north.
Suddenly everyone was shocked. They admired Xiao Rong so much that people wanted to see him every day. Among them were people from aristocratic families, high-ranking officials, and even two spies from Nanyong.
But the Zhenbei Army did not move.
Xiao Rong was a little doubtful of himself, but he couldn't use the prophecy trick too often. After all, he was just an ordinary person and it wasn't possible for his prophecy to come true every time. If he used it too often, he would easily bring disaster before bringing about Qu Yunmie.
Xiao Rong decided to wait and see. After waiting for a few days, he received a notice posted by the Zhenbei Army in Pingyang City. The King of Zhenbei wanted to recruit talented and capable people with real skills and knowledge. No matter their background or past, as long as they believed they had the ability, they could join him.
Xiao Rong standing in front of the notice: “…………”
Now everyone in Pingyang City is talking about him, so he has to hide when he goes out. If the Zhenbei Army came here, it is impossible that they have not heard of his name. In this era, posting notices is the last resort for seeking talents. Generally, they have searched everywhere but still haven't found the right one, so they post notices to try their best.
In other words, from beginning to end, the Zhenbei Army never considered recruiting him.
There are only two reasons. First, the Zhenbei Army looked down on him.
Second, Qu Yunmie looked down on him. …
Ashu looked at Xiao Rong's face carefully. After all, the driver was not familiar with Xiao Rong. He counted so many of Xiao Rong's shortcomings, but did not realize that those were just minor problems. Xiao Rong still had a biggest shortcoming.
In other words, he is very face-conscious. …
Even Ah Shu could see that this was a bit embarrassing, and Xiao Rong must have seen it even more. He didn't dare to say anything for a while. After a long time, Xiao Rong tried his luck and said calmly, "Well, if the mountain doesn't come to me, I will go to the mountain. They probably haven't heard of me, so I will just take the list and vote."
After saying that, Xiao Rong reached out and took down the notice. The guard came over to lead the way, and Xiao Rong followed with a smile on his face.
Ashu touched his pounding heart and followed him with great concern.
Xiao Rong was dressed like a scholar. The old Zhenbei Army hated scholars, but the new recruits did not have this problem. The guard politely led Xiao Rong into a room and asked him to sit down.
When Jian Qiao heard that someone had finally come to surrender, he quickly got up and walked over here. On the way, the guard introduced Xiao Rong's situation.
"He is a scholar named Xiao Rong. I have asked around and heard that he is proficient in divination."
Jian Qiao stopped and hesitated for a moment, then walked forward again.
After so many days of not finding a suitable one, the unrest in Yizhou alarmed the king again, and the king's mood became worse and worse. Mr. Gao kept urging him to hurry up. In the past, he could strictly follow the six rules, but now, forget it, he decided to relax a little, it was just one rule after all.
When he walked into the room and saw Xiao Rong in person, Jian Qiao was stunned.
It’s warm in spring, but I’m still wearing a fur coat → so delicate.
Face like gold paper, lips pale → short life.
Dare to keep looking at yourself and never lose the upper hand → you must have a good temper.
Before, my eyes were always on the decorations in the house → I love money.
Can tell fortunes → weird.
It made me stunned until now → beautiful.
Xiao Rong stared at him in confusion, not understanding why he just looked at him without saying anything. Since he had already taken the initiative to this extent, it would not be a big deal for him to be more proactive. Xiao Rong was just about to bow and make an opening remark when he saw the general opposite him come to his senses, clasped his fists, and then pointed at the door he had come in through.
"Thank you for making this trip, but we have already recruited all the people you need. Please take your time."
Then, Xiao Rong was asked to leave with a confused look on his face.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Standing on the dirt road outside, Xiao Rong slowly clenched his fist and swore once again.
Qu Yunmie, just wait, wait until I send you to the throne, I will definitely kill you with my own hands!!!
The author has something to say:
Jian Qiao: Just like that, I lost my future position as Marshal
