Chapter 45: Why Not [One Shift + Two Changes]
After Su Yunshuang defeated Yuan Shao, both the territory and the strength were unprecedentedly strong.
Then she was dumbfounded.
There's no one under you!
The military generals don't mention it, and even if the civil officials have two more frustrations, Xun Chen is useless.
Su Yunqing currently has Bingzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou and half of Qingzhou, almost occupying half of the north, and the civil officials under Su Yunqing's hands ...... Jia Xu, Xun You, Mao Jue, Xun Chen, and Half Frustration.
The reason why the frustration is half of it is probably because the frustration is not really used by Su Yunqing at the moment, and he has to investigate it while using it.
Jia Xu has a lot of white hair recently for this reason yes the civil officials under su yunqing can now line up and then the territory under them is also bigger ah the territory is bigger and the territory is bigger and the manpower needed is doubling up.
Not to mention the current manpower, even if the number of civil servants under Su Yunqing doubles, it will have to be busy.
So on the first day that Xun Chen and Fu were given to Su Yunqing to officially do things, they did not feel the wisdom of the lord, but first felt the characteristic overtime culture of Bingzhou.
Yes, to sum it up, I am busy working overtime and working overtime, Xun Chen, as a child of a family, is personable on weekdays, but this time he can't even take care of the etiquette of eating.
Hurry up and finish eating and go to work!
After the moon hung in the sky for a long time, Xun Chen finally finished his day's work.
Calculate the time, if it was changed when he was at Yuan Shao's place, he would have gone home a long time ago to warm his wife and children, but here in Su Yunqing, he has just finished a day's official duties
Although it is said that this day is quite fulfilling, if every day is so busy, it is too sad!
Xun You patted Xun Chen's shoulder, who was already blank in his eyes: "Youruo, it's good to get used to it." β
Xun Chen looked at him expressionlessly, and said quietly: "Gongda, were you so busy before?" β
Is this a human life? It's a shame that you've been able to hold on for so many years!
Thinking of those military generals who had nothing to do early and were just idle, and then thinking about their group of civilian officials who were busy with Tiance...... Why is the gap between people so big!
Xun You seems to have long been accustomed to this kind of workload, and he looks quite relaxed: "This is just a new fight in Jizhou, plus many things in Qingzhou have not been dealt with before, after all, before we completely solve Yuan Shao, what we did was only control rather than governance, so there are only a little more things at this time, and it will be good to wait for a while when these are on the right track." β
Wouldn't there be any need to work overtime then?
Xun Chen's eyes clearly reflected this sentence.
Xun You coughed dryly: "At least you can complete the task about an hour in advance." β
I work overtime, but I don't have to work so hard.
Xun Chen: "......"
He finally knew why the civil servants of the state were treated so well!
At first, Xun Chen looked at the huge difference in the treatment of the civilian officials and military generals in Bingzhou, and felt that this was not good, but now...... It's no wonder that the group of generals was not only not jealous, but sympathetic.
He also wants to give himself some wax!
While talking, seeing that their matter here was over, a servant girl immediately came to pack up her things, and Xun You took Xun Chen to the next room: "Come, Youruo, I'll take you to have supper." β
Su Yunqing was afraid that the body of this group of civil officials would not be able to support it, so not only the usual treatment and salary, but also a very good working meal to eat if he worked overtime.
In terms of delicacy and intentions, the overtime supper of the civil officials is better than that of Su Yunqing, the state pastor.
Basically, it is a balance between taste and nutrition.
Xun You and Xun Chen just went over and found that Jia Xu and Mao Jue were already there, Cai Yong was not there, the old man had always commuted to and from work on time, and no one dared to let him work overtime, but he was not frustrated...... The people present were all smart people, and at a glance they knew that they must be responsible for fewer things, so they had already gone back in advance.
Looking at Xun Chen's loveless look, everyone knows what's going on, after all, they are all from the past_(:3γβ )_
After the meal, several people said goodbye to each other, but Xun Chen followed Xun You out and found two ox carts parked outside the gate.
Well, there are also chauffeured car transfers.
In other words, it is not only a special car pick-up, but each car is also equipped with a small escort team of more than a dozen people, after all, in the middle of the night, the world is not peaceful now, even if it is on your own territory, you have to be careful.
After a group of civil servants got up early and worked late for a month, there were a lot less things, and basically the backlog of work had been completed, and the work would naturally become easier.
Of course, this ease is only relative, at least in Xun Chen's opinion, Su Yunqing's workload here is still very large, and he basically has to do what he used to do with Yuan Shao for several days a day.
But unexpectedly, he was not disgusted and bored, and even happy in it, wasn't that what he had been longing for?
Of course, what Xun Chen longs for is not overtime, what he longs for is the kind of fulfillment that can really do things, he used to live a relaxed and comfortable life with Yuan Shao, but Xun Chen always felt that it was too empty, plus at the beginning, Yuan Shao did not reuse Xun Chen, and the things handed over to Xun Chen to deal with were basically not too important, but when it came to Su Yunqing, Xun Chen really felt that every decision he made, every comment he wrote, and every proposal he proposed were really changing this land.
So it doesn't matter if you work overtime or something!
Xun You looked at Xun Chen's state and twitched the corners of his mouth, and said in his heart How did Yuan Shao abuse Youruo in the first place, and good people were forced to be like this.
It didn't take long for a big event to happen in the state.
After Lu Bu surrounded Cai Yan in Baba for a few years, Su Yunqing finally officially proposed marriage to Cai Yong.
Everyone said that they were surprised and surprised by this incident, but after being surprised, they felt that it was actually reasonable.
Lu Bu is chasing Cai Yan, and all the states know about it, but the problem is that Cai Yan's own attitude on this matter is very vague, if you want to talk about intimacy, Cai Yan is not as good as Zhou Yu who often comes to discuss with Cai Yong, so Su Yunqing actually proposed marriage this time, and Cai Yong really agreed to this matter, which is really unexpected.
This said that Su Yunqing went to propose, and then Cai Yong agreed, but in fact, everyone knew that it was Lu Bu's intention to propose, and it was also Cai Yan's attitude to agree, Cai Yong's baby was not good, if Cai Yan was opposed and unwilling to marry Lu Bu, Cai Yong would not be able to agree.
Let's think about it, although Cai Yan's attitude towards Lu Bu has always been very vague, but he has not explicitly refused, besides, everyone can see what Lu Bu thinks, and it makes no sense Cai Yan can't see it, Lu Bu has been around her for a few years, although Cai Yan doesn't know what to say, but if he doesn't refuse, maybe it's a tacit acquiescence?
In fact, for Cai Yan, this decision is difficult to do, easy to say.
If you simply ask her if she is willing to marry Lu Bu, of course she is willing.
To be honest, if it was ten years ago, Lu Bu would definitely not be able to enter Cai Yan's eyes if he looked like a simple or even a little silly martial artist, and he didn't even want to look at it, Cai Yan was full of poetry and books and proficient in music and rhythm, how could he be willing to marry someone who only knew how to dance with guns and sticks? The conversation between the two was not all about the cow playing the harp;
But when Cai Yan married Wei Zhongdao, she realized that in fact, the reality was not as beautiful as she imagined, Wei Zhongdao was a child of a family, both in appearance and talent, Cai Yan was optimistic about the type, but their married life was not as good as Cai Yan imagined.
Even Wei Zhongdao was weak and died a few years after Cai Yan married him, and the Wei family said that this was Cai Yan's bad, and even said that she was a husband, Cai Yan couldn't stay in the Wei family, so Cai Yong took her home again.
As for Lu Bu, Cai Yan herself can't tell when she started liking Lu Bu, if she simply looks at her original requirements, Lu Bu will definitely not be the person she likes, but life is so impermanent, some things can't be explained at all.
In Cai Yan's opinion, none of Lu Bu's poems and books are as good as Wei Zhongdao, and they are even worse than herself, but when Lu Bu wrote a serious 'strange' poem that didn't make sense at all and showed it to her, she didn't think it was ridiculous, so she would help Lu Bu change the poem seriously, thinking it was a very interesting thing.
The most important thing is that Lu Bu is really simple and serious from a certain Cheng dΓΉ, he likes Cai Yan and really pursues Cai Yan wholeheartedly, and he doesn't feel any shame when he does stupid things, sometimes Cai Yan laughs at him, he scratches his head and replies, "Miss Cai is happy." β
This man, simple, enthusiastic and serious and persistent, single-minded to her, and cute, for a year or two, he has been working hard to like her, every time he is looked at by such eyes, it is like seeing a big dog who wants to please his master.
When Cai Yan realized what kind of feelings she had for Lu Bu, she couldn't help but feel that she was actually not worthy of Lu Bu.
She's been married after all.
Even if it is not a big deal for a widow to remarry in this era, a young and promising girl like Lu Bu who is willing to marry him has married a woman who has been married and is rumored to be unable to live in her husband's house and can only return to her own home...... This kind of thing, don't let others say it, Cai Yan himself finds it difficult to accept.
But what did she wait for in the end?
"I know that Miss Cai has been married, and I have heard all those rumors, but does that matter? In some places, it is rumored that my mother's face is full of stubble and muscles, and she is a man-eating monster. β
"I am the one who marries you, and you are the one who marries me, what does it matter to others?"
"I just love Miss Cai, I don't want anything from others, Miss doesn't like me, just send me away, but I'm thick-skinned, I will probably come to the door again."
Cai Yan was both helpless and funny, and finally when Lu Bu asked Su Yunqing to come to Cai Yong to propose marriage, and when Cai Yong asked her opinion, she recalled these things, and before she realized it, she had already nodded first.
Cai Yan is not an ordinary woman, she was just a normal girl before, she looked at the person she liked and felt that everything was good, and she had an inferiority complex and caution in front of the person she liked.
So the marriage of Cai Yan and Lu Bu was decided.
Originally, as Lu Bu's mother, Su Yunqing should be the one who was busy with this matter, but it was not true, Su Yunqing was a modern person, if it was a modern person's marriage, what was the process, she could still say one, two, three, even if it was not comprehensive, she had some understanding in the end, but now it is ancient times, Su Yunqing is completely black-eyed, and she doesn't know anything.
At this time, Ding Yuan and Ding Yuan's wife, who had been retired for many years, helped Su Yunqing, and with the relationship between Lu Bu and Ding Yuan, it was reasonable to leave this matter to Ding Yuan and Ding Yuan's wife Yan to solve it.
However, the ancients had a series of etiquette and processes for getting married, which was a very long thing, not at all like modern times, if the husband and wife don't care, they can get a certificate and finish the thing.
So the long thing came slowly, but Lu Bu, after Cai Yan agreed, began to call himself a family person, and even his personality has changed from a reckless hairy young man in his early twenties to a mature and stable trend.
But that's just a trend_(:3γβ )_
At the end of the year, the civil officials who had been busy all year finally took a holiday, and even each of them received a six-fold coupon for the whole year from Xishanju.
Xun You poked Xun Chen: "Youruo, what I got is Junshan's discount for calling Huaji, what about you?" β
"Tibetan Sword Yellow Braised Chicken."
Hearing this, Xun You's eyes lit up: "Youruo, I'll help you deal with all the remaining government affairs today, let's change them?" β
Tibetan sword yellow stewed chicken or something, it's really love! Xun You felt that only Kalubi lamb skewers could be compared.
Xun Chen's answer was just two words: "Don't change." β
After saying that, he turned his face and left.
So Xun You went to see Mao Yu again: "Xiaoxian, what did you get?" β
"Kalubi kebabs."
Now Xun You's eyes are brighter: "Xiaoxian, I have Junshan called Huaji here, can I change it?" Pack you delicious! β
ββ¦β¦ It's delicious, you still change it with me? β
I don't know that the discounts of Junshan called Huaji and 570,000 fresh milk stores are incompatible and can't be used at the same time?
When he's stupid!
Xun You: "......"
Why is it mentioned that even Mao Jue, who looks the most upright and rigid, has gone bad! (β―β΅β‘β²)β―οΈ΅β»ββ»
After everyone spent a happy New Year, Su Yunqing called a meeting of his subordinates, because Wang Yue sent a letter to Su Yunqing.
Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, but Wang Yue did not leave Luoyang, and later Dong Zhuo abolished the young emperor Liu Wei and set up Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, as the emperor at that time, Wang Yue felt that this was the only bloodline of Emperor Ling, he was taken care of too much by Emperor Ling, and he was sorry for Emperor Ling if he failed to protect Liu Wei, and now there is a Liu Xie, he is fighting for his life and can't let Liu Xie have an accident.
So Wang Yue stayed by Liu Xie's side, and later Dong Zhuo was killed, Wang Yun became a pit again, and finally the Son of Heaven, who had just had a little hope, fell into the hands of Li Dao and Guo Yan again.
Later, Liu Xie proposed to Li and Guo Yan to return to the old capital of Luoyang, Li and Guo Yan occupied Yongzhou but could not do much, whether it was Su Yunqing or Cao Cao, or Ma Teng caused a huge threat to them, so they didn't bother to care about the affairs of the Son of Heaven, Liu Xie wanted to leave, and they also agreed.
It's just that Liu Xie didn't go long after the two of them regretted it again, and now Liu Xie didn't want to go back, not to mention that after all, the reputation of the Son of Heaven is still there, and there are still many people who are willing to follow the guards, so the Son of Heaven's escort team fought a big battle with the army that Li Dao Guo came to chase, and in the end, although he lost, Liu Xie was able to escape, and then he traveled to many places, and a bunch of messy things happened during the period.
Wang Yue had already heard that Dong Cheng and others wanted to invite Cao Cao to come to 'King Qin', but Wang Yue was not at ease with Cao Cao, he thought about it and his family was reliable, so he wrote to Su Yunqing to reads;.
"So the question now is, should we go to 'King Qin'?"
In fact, this issue was discussed at the earliest, and at that time they came to the conclusion that they didn't care about the emperor, but now?
The premise of not welcoming the Son of Heaven is that Su Yunqing dominates the north, and no one has the strength to challenge Su Yunqing, but now? Cao Cao owns Yanzhou, Xuzhou and half of Qingzhou, even if it is not as good as Su Yunqing, but it will not be too bad, if Cao Cao welcomes the Son of Heaven, then the result can be imagined.
The Son of Heaven is a very good banner, if Cao Cao gets the Son of Heaven, then it is a matter of course to develop and grow, but now in the form of the north, the decisive battle between Su Yunqing and Cao Cao is already a sure thing, Su Yunqing will have to fight Cao Cao sooner or later, can she let the Son of Heaven go to Cao Cao at this time?
Su Yunqing is stupid and can't do this kind of thing!
But if you don't want Cao Cao to get the Son of Heaven, then there is only one way, Su Yunqing will go to the Son of Heaven by himself.
What this means has been analyzed before.
So Su Yunqing had to face this dilemma, and it seemed that neither choice was right.
Regarding this issue, Su Yunqing's reply is not as unified as before, Xun You's opinion is still not to have the Son of Heaven, and to develop and grow himself with peace of mind, but Xun Chen and Mao Jue's Jian Yì is to welcome the Son of Heaven back to the state, basically both sides make sense, Su Yunqing couldn't help but look at Jia Xu.
Jia Xu and Fu Zhu didn't speak, but Fu Zhu didn't speak because of his identity, he thought that he was not close enough to Su Yunqing to discuss this issue, but Jia Xu was different, as Su Yunqing's number one strategist, Jia Xu had to give his opinion at this time.
So Su Yunqing had no choice but to ask herself: "Wenhe, what is your opinion about the Son of Heaven?" β
Jia Xu didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Isn't it better to ask this question to the lord?" The Son of Heaven is a double-edged sword, there are benefits to welcome, there are benefits to not welcome, and the disadvantages are the same, so it only depends on what the lord wants to get. β
After that, Jia Xu kept silent again, so Su Yunqing knew that Jia Xu's words could not be said to others, and even this could only be said to her alone, so that he could enter her ears, and no third party would know.
So Su Yunqing stopped asking Jia Xu.
Of course, all the people present were smart people, and after hearing Jia Xu's words, they also understood what Jia Xu meant, everyone exchanged glances with each other, and finally said goodbye and left together.
After everyone left, Su Yunqing said to Jia Xu again: "Wen He, if you have any ideas, you might as well speak up now." β
Jia Xu lowered his eyes slightly and said, "I only ask the lord one thing, what is the lord's ambition?" β
"Does the lord want to achieve the cause of the emperor or the cause of the overlord?"
Su Yunqing was stunned for a moment, and somehow replied smoothly: "...... I just want to be a martial artist. β
Jia Xu: "......"
Jia Xu was about to laugh, angry.
"I have assisted the lord for many years, and now there is no one else here, is the lord still unwilling to say a word from his heart?"
Jia Xu's meaning is very clear, it was he who single-handedly pushed Su Yunqing to the position of the pastor of the state, Su Yunqing can say it no matter what kind of ambition he has, and he has nothing to scruple about.
However, for Su Yunqing, this is the truth in his heart!
However, Jia Xu couldn't believe this.
Su Yunqing pursed her lips, and had no choice but to ask again: "What about the overlord's business, and what about the emperor's business?" β
"The business of the overlord dominates one side in the troubled times, just be a hero in the troubled times, but the emperor's business wants to help the world and pass on the merits to the world, what is the meaning of the lord?"
Of course, what Jia Xu didn't say was that the business of the overlord seemed to be happy and enmity on the hegemonic side, but in fact, there was always a day when a meteor fell, and at that time, those of them who followed Su Yunqing were afraid that they would also end up in defeat and death, and the cause of the emperor would be completely different......
Su Yunqing felt a little incredulous: "Even if you dominate one side, what does the emperor's business mean?" Can I still be emperor? β
What are you kidding, Cao Cao in history didn't claim the title of emperor in the end, okay?
And the empress or something...... Is she going to surpass Wu Zetian to become the first female emperor in history? is even different from Wu Zetian, Wu Zetian always has a bit of the nature of usurping the country, but if Su Yunqing is called the emperor, he is the real founder of the country.
If it was many years ago in modern times, Su Yunqing would have said a good word at most, but after so many years in this era, she clearly understood what it meant.
Looking at Su Yunqing's eyes, Jia Xu still looked very calm: "The lord only needs to make a choice, and the rest of the things are naturally worrying about others." β
Hearing this, Su Yunqing couldn't help but look at Jia Xu with wide eyes, she always thought that Jia Xu was a fairly conservative person, and Jia Xu's pushing her to the position of state pastor was enough to surprise her, but this time she actually said such things to her.
"Wenhe, do you know what this means?"
This is a clear confession to Su Yunqing, as long as you have a heart that wants to be an emperor, it is enough, and I will naturally plan for you for the rest!
At this time, planning to be the emperor is shocking enough, and Jia Xu's candidate is still her.
Su Yunqing couldn't figure it out at all.
"Why did you say this to me?"
"Does the lord really think this kind of thing is impossible from the bottom of his heart?"
No, Su Yunqing actually admits this kind of thing, not to mention those female leaders of modern countries, let's just say that there are also figures like Wu Zetian in Chinese history, so fundamentally speaking, Su Yunqing doesn't think this kind of thing is impossible.
"But why me?"
"Why should the lord be presumptuous, since I chose the lord in the first place, it is naturally because in my opinion, the lord is the best and most suitable candidate, not to mention Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, even Cao β‘β‘ also feels inferior to the lord, in this case, why not?"
Why not? What's not to do?
All that's missing is the word 'want'.
