Although Ju Shou was also a scholar, he did not care about money and food. He only cared about the overall situation. He really did not have the sensitivity to settle accounts.
Li Tian's logical analysis hit the nail on the head.
"You came from a scholarly background, but you actually have such talent?
In terms of mathematics, I'm afraid even the clerk can't compare to you.
Moreover, it was rare to be able to understand the situation by analogy.”
Qiushou sighed a few times, he was already 70 - 80% convinced.
He had to admit that Li Tian was indeed stronger than him in some aspects.
"So, don't make a decision. I'm not doing this for personal gain, but to make the Imperial Court more resolute in suppressing the rebellion.
I believe that if you bring me along, it will definitely be beneficial to the mission. I won't snatch your credit.”
Qiushou seemed to have been insulted and said proudly,"
"You're measuring a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart!
I, Ju, am not someone who is jealous of talent!
If you really have real knowledge, I will naturally tell you.
If you can really make a great contribution, even if I beg the envoy to recommend you this year, it's fine!
However, I have another question for you. Before you came, did you give Xin Zhongzhi any benefits?
Otherwise, why would he help you? I know him too well."
Li Tian replied," I did give some, but not much. I just wanted to have fun."
This is also for official business. As long as my heart is to help the Imperial Court, why not?
In today's world, if one did not spend money, eighty percent of things would probably not be done, right?
Those who plan big things don't care about trifles."
Li Tian almost used Machiavelli's line," As long as the motive is right, you can do anything."
Fortunately, he took into account the moral acceptance of the Han Dynasty people and forcefully endured it.
" Sigh…" Qiushou knew that Li Tian was telling the truth.
If a poor family disciple did not have any fame, they would not even have the chance to show off if they wanted to serve the country.
"Forget it. Seeing that you are indeed beneficial to the official business, I will ask the envoy to take you as a deputy.”
Qiushou struggled again and again, but he still decided to put the rebellion first.
……
Early the next morning, Jia Cong called Ju Shou over to arrange some errands.
Ju Shou cleverly phrased his words and strongly stated the benefits of bringing along Li Tian, Liu Bei, and other witnesses.
Jia Cong had some doubts at first. He was afraid that if he brought too many people, the risk of saying the wrong thing would increase, which was not conducive to unifying the confession.
However, Ju Shou said that he had already questioned Li Tian and tried his best to explain Li Tian's eloquence. He even vouched for Li Tian's words and deeds when he went to Luo. Jia Cong then changed his mind and appointed Li Tian as the deputy envoy.
They didn't talk along the way. They took turns to cross the Yellow River at Mengjin Ferry and arrived at Luoyang in less than three or four days.
February 18th, afternoon.
Led by Ju Shou, the Jizhou pilgrimage group finally arrived at their destination after three days of trekking.
A towering city wall that was at least 60 feet tall appeared in front of him.
Moreover, it was a complete stretch, not a short stretch like a tourist attraction in the future.
Li Tian's mood was also quite excited.
After coming to this world, he finally came to Luoyang City for the first time.
In comparison, Ju Shou and Liu Bei had been here before, so they were not as surprised.
"Is this the glorious capital, Luo Yang?
He was really lucky to be able to witness the glorious scene before Luoyang City was destroyed in this era.
Unfortunately, there were only two years left. He had no foundation at all. He was afraid that he would not be able to develop enough power to stop Thief Dong in time.
It would be good enough if they could save some cultural treasures from Luoyang and protect the legacy of civilization.
The current Western Liang Army was the strongest army in the world and was no match for them.
Even if Dong Zhuo escapes to Chang 'an, if the other allied vassals are not strong enough, even if I cheat Liu Bei, I still won't be able to fight Dong Zhuo alone.
If they could get rid of Li Jue and Guo Si while they were fighting amongst themselves and save the Imperial Court, that would be the best outcome. Moreover, it would depend on the geographical environment and whether they could reach the territory of Li Jue and Guo Si.
Forget it, let's not think too far ahead. Let's take it one step at a time.”
Li Tian's mind went wild as he saw the city tower from afar and passed through it.
