Chapter 304: It still depends on the king when it comes to pretending
"Go to Sanchuan County to be the chief officer?" Hong Cheng frowned tightly, just a master, can he go to Sanchuan County?
"It's not easy to go outside to be an official......" Hong Min's father-in-law also felt that things were a little strange.
Huaiyin is a large county with a large population, so the allocation of officials is naturally more.
Hong Min was originally an official under the Huaiyin Lord, but later through some operations, he moved his position forward and had more power in his hands.
But because after saying a few good words for Han Xin, many people felt disgusted.
As a result, the efforts of the previous years came to naught in an instant, and Hong Min gradually became a marginal figure.
But his ability is good, for such a person, he is unwilling, and it is a pity not to use it.
Just let him do the work, and the credit will be given to others.
This kind of thing is a common thing in all eras, so there is nothing to be curious about.
If you are lucky, you will change your life against the sky, and if you are unlucky, you will be suppressed in this life.
A marginal figure was suddenly transferred to another county as the head of the county.
Although Pingyin County is not as good as Huaiyin County, it is a master at all, and after Hong Min passed, he was still promoted, and it was the kind of promotion that really crossed a threshold.
"It's okay to do it, the order of the officials has come down, General Han will lead the army back to Luoyang tomorrow, and let his son take his wife and children to Luoyang with General Han, and then go to Pingyin County." Hong Min said.
"Where's Pingyin?" Hong Cheng asked, he only knew where Sanchuan County was, but Pingyin County, he really hadn't heard of it.
"Thirty miles north of Luoyang......"
Sleepless night, the joy of promotion, and the sadness of parting.
The family wanted to drag the family with them, but it was stipulated that only wives and children could be brought with them.
No way, although it is a little inhumane, but this order is actually very human.
If there are brothers in the family, they are only allowed to bring their wives and children to the place of appointment and dismissal, and if they are the only children in the family, they can bring their parents, wives and children to go together.
Hong Min is the eldest son, and there are two younger brothers in the countryside.
As for Hong Min himself, his family is neither poor nor rich, and he is average.
He is diligent and intelligent, although his temper is the same as that of a donkey, but he happens to be favored by his father-in-law.
So after some exchange and observation, he was chosen as his son-in-law.
That year, Hong Min was only fourteen years old.
Although it's not a plus, it's not much different from a plus.
After being selected as a son-in-law, Hong Min lived and studied at his father-in-law's house, and after the two got married, his father-in-law began to find a way to arrange for him.
As time passed, it went higher and higher, and then, because of Han Xin, it fell back to the bottom.
After a few years of sinking and a few years of exclusion, Hong Min's temper has not changed, but after several years of training, he has accumulated a lot of experience.
Although it is hard to work a lot, it means that there will be more experience as an official.
A large part of the reason for being selected is that it is stained with this light.
The family packed up overnight and barely slept well.
The father-in-law also rushed home to find a car to drive them away.
The next day, it was not dawn.
Hong Min's family of five sat in the car, took a coachman given by his father-in-law, and hurried to the military camp outside the city.
By the time they arrived, the barracks had already been folded, their bags were loaded, and the personnel were lined up, waiting for the order to be opened.
looked at Han Xin, who was just twenty-five years old and eight years younger than himself, standing in the army, swallowing mountains and rivers, with a majestic figure.
Hong Min was also full of emotion in his heart.
What else can you do but sigh?
Who would have thought that Han Xin, who was still being bullied a few years ago and had to suffer the humiliation of his crotch, would become a general in a few years?
Since they had already greeted each other, the officers of the army arranged for the convoy of the army after verifying Hong Min's order and the identities of his accompanying family members.
The speed of the march was not fast, and it only traveled forty miles a day.
Anyway, there is no war, no mission, no need to hurry.
The teams almost brought their own salutes, and then every time they passed through the county, some people were scattered.
Hong Min didn't know what Han Shin was doing, but the longer he started, the fewer people in the team became.
And from beginning to end, Han Xin never looked for him, as if he didn't know that this person existed.
No one in the army deliberately chatted with him, and the only time he could talk was when he ate every morning and dinner in the evening.
Because he was with the army, he also ate military food, and Hong Min witnessed the treatment of the Han army for the first time.
It was also the first time that I figured out why the Chu army was defeated so quickly.
With such military discipline and such treatment, how can you not win?
Half a month later, the army entered Yingchuan County, and the team of more than 100,000 people now has less than 30,000 people left, and it continues to disperse.
At the same time, the speed of the march is constantly increasing.
From the beginning of 40 miles a day, to the current 50 miles a day.
The fewer people, the faster the speed, this is the law of nature.
It was the autumn harvest, and looking at the busy Yingchuan County, Hong Min was full of shock.
Compared with the 'desolation' of Chu, those counties that have long been incorporated into the land of the Han State are undoubtedly heavenly places.
There is no need to conscript conscription for conquest, and the most direct result is that the entire Han realm is now in a bumper harvest.
There are smiles everywhere, and there are shadows of happiness everywhere.
"Hong Yanlu, the general called you!" A soldier suddenly interrupted Hong Min's shock.
thought that Han Xin didn't remember Hong Min at all, and he was even more puzzled in his heart.
But soon this doubt disappeared, maybe someone mentioned himself?
After all, he is a general of the unified army, how can he remember that he is a person who just once said two good things for him?
followed the soldier and came to Han Xin's side.
At this moment, Han Xin was riding a white, tall war horse under his crotch, wearing a red military uniform, and a red cloak symbolizing a senior officer hanging on his back.
Dismounted to greet the show was too grand, and it was too pretending to be forced to walk.
So Han Xin asked someone to bring a horse and let Hong Min ride it side by side with him.
"I didn't think you could really hold your breath!" The two were side by side, Han Xin joked with a smile.
"The general's words are serious, and the little official just did what he had to do." Hong Min said that this is his character, if he flattered Han Xin at this time, then he would not be mixed up like this.
Han Xin shook his head and smiled: "It's not that there are no people who should do more than you, but you are the only one who can do something like you." ”
"There were many people who were bad to General Ben back then, but now General Ben can't remember any of them, and there are many people who are good to General Ben, and now General Ben remembers them very clearly."
"General Ben also heard about you, and he didn't look for you before, because General Ben knows very well that in the environment of the Han Kingdom, people who are really capable will not be buried."
"You have the ability and a sense of responsibility, don't flatter, don't deliberately please some people."
"These things in you are what the king loves."
"So even if you don't come to me during this period of Huaiyin, when I return to Luoyang, I plan to recommend you to the king."
"It's just that I didn't expect that the king found out that your speed was faster than the speed at which I recommended you, and before I returned to Luoyang, the king's order came."
"Wang ...... The king's appointee? Hong Min was stunned.
How did this become the king's decree again?
Why do you feel more and more confused?
"Well, not only do I know about you, but even the king knows about it, do you know what happened before your appointment was handed over to Huaiyin Order?" Han Xin looked at Hong Min with a smile, he liked this feeling very much, the feeling of chatting with his benefactor and acquaintance.
Although Hong Min was still a little nervous, Han Xin felt very happy, and good people should be rewarded.
Hong Min shook his head, if he could know, it would be strange.
"The messenger with this appointment came to me first, asking if you have come to me, or asked for something, and said that if there is, let me take care of the follow-up arrangements, if not, he will hand over this appointment to Huaiyin Order." Han Xin continued: "These are the king's original words. ”
Hong Min looked confused again, I ......
Am I so famous? Even the king knows about me?
However, Hong Min's confusion could not control Han Xin's thoughts.
Han Xin was not much better than him when he learned the news.
On pretending to be ......
No, it's about means, or the king is superior.
Look at what people asked, that level is really not comparable to ordinary people.
Didn't the messenger's words clearly tell Han Xin, I know that Hong Min is kind to you, if he comes to you for help, you can arrange it for him, I know it, I will not refuse you to repay the favor, if you don't look for you, then I will arrange this person.
Han Xin's arrangement and the imperial court arrangement are different in terms of results and significance.
Han Xin arranged it himself, that is, to repay the favor, and the king would not care about this matter if he was not hungry.
And the imperial court arranged it, that is, the selection of talents.
Take a look, the kung fu of one sentence not only gained Han Xin's gratitude, but also Hong Min's gratitude.
These are all good things that can be directly transformed into loyalty.
Seeing that Hong Min was still dazed and worried, Han Xin couldn't help but smile.
No matter how you say it, you are also a person who is kind to yourself, although you don't benefit directly, but after all, people have been implicated because of yourself, and they have indeed said good things for themselves.
So in this matter, Han Xin also deliberately inquired about it.
But he didn't know enough about it.
"You are not the only one who was transferred to Pingyin County this time, this matter was personally grasped by the king, for you, this is a good opportunity, just like me back then, originally just an obscure small officer, and then a coincidence was introduced to the king by General Guan, the same merit, when the king pays attention to you, you are particularly easy to get ahead, you don't need to make any relationship when you get to the place, just do things in a down-to-earth manner, the king has been staring at it, what is yours is yours, no one can snatch it away......"
