Chapter 405: Guo Dian Loses His Backer

In the eyes of the emperor of the court and the magnates, Liu Xian is indeed a little person who is not worth mentioning, and in their hearts, he is a little ant who can be crushed to death at will and does not know where to jump out.

However, in Liu Xian's heart, although he will not regard them as ants, he will never take them to heart.

The powerful are like clouds to him, because Liu Xian knows that they will soon become a thing of the past, so he doesn't need to pay attention to them at all, the rings of history will completely bury them. What Liu Xian wants to do is to accumulate his strength in these years.

What Liu Xian really cares about is strength, only if he has the strength, can he call for wind and rain in this era.

Liu Xian really didn't want to have too many entanglements with the current court, but the current court was eyeing him, so Liu Xian had to step into this whirlpool.

But that's the case, Liu Xian's heart still doesn't take these things very seriously, at least he won't be too cautious, and he won't let these so-called magnates who are doomed to perish ride on his head.

Perhaps, for ordinary people, Qincha is a big man who can't be provoked. The fact is also like this, no matter what kind of person he is in the imperial palace, how much official position or authority he has, but once he has the name of a messenger, after arriving at the place, then even the governor of a state must be respectful to him.

There is no way, because the Qincha represents the emperor's envoy, even if he is the governor of a state, he can't afford to offend. Under normal circumstances, the chincha would be worshipped.

Liu Xian will not whisper to the so-called Qincha, no matter who he is, I am me, and I don't have that kind of leisure to coax you.

What's more, knowing that the imperial court wanted to deal with him and wanted to kill him, how could Liu Xian be polite to him?

Because of this, he is evil to this Qin sent Zhao He, and if he is evil, he is evil, what can he do to himself?

Naturally, Zhao He did have an annoyance against Liu Xian, and was already thinking about how to wear Liu Xian's shoes, how to kill Liu Xian, and seize Liu Xian's goods.

At night of the same day, the caravan of the Liu Mansion arrived at Julu County, which was already extremely fast.

Guo Dian welcomed Liu Xian and Qin Cha into the city.

After this day's hurried journey, although Qin Cha Zhao He sat in a carriage, but the rush along the way also made him a little unbearable, and he didn't even have the spirit to participate in the wine banquet that Guo Dian picked up for him, and rested first at the post station where he settled.

In this way, only Liu Xian and Guo Dian pushed the cup.

Guo Dian's mental state is not very good, and he looks full of worries.

Guo Dian is because he worked hard in front of Huangfu Song, so that he can make up for his mistakes, and he can still continue to serve as the giant deer Taishou. It can be said that it is also all up to the preservation of Huangfu Song. But now, Huangfu Song has been dismissed and transferred to Chang'an to guard. In this way, Guo Dian lost his backer.

Because of last year's Yellow Turban riots, the trend of selling and buying officials in the past has been somewhat reined in, at least it will not be too obvious. Under normal circumstances, incumbent officials will no longer be dismissed at will. But Guo Dian's heart is bottomless, without the thigh of Huangfu Song, the imperial court can remove his official position at will and appoint someone else as the Taishou of Julu.

Therefore, Guo Dian was extremely unhappy during this period of time, and he was really worried about whether he would wake up and his giant deer Taishou would be replaced by others. There is no way, if someone can come up with a sum of money that makes the traitors in the DPRK and China tempted, then they can use an excuse to send him Guo Dian away.

What worries Guo Dian the most is that he has indeed been derelict in his duties, in case he is dug up by the traitors of the DPRK and China at this time, then it is not just a matter of removing him from his official position, maybe he will have to be punished.

However, Guo Dian is also a little arrogant, he can't do anything to bow to the traitor and use money to slap the traitor to keep his official position stable.

While drinking with Liu Xian, Guo Dian waved his subordinates back, and then sighed and said, "Alas, Brother Liu Xian, what do you say is wrong with the imperial court?" General Huangfu made great contributions to the imperial court, and cleaned up the mess of Jizhou for the imperial court. You see, when will Jizhou recover from such a mess? Now, the imperial court has not yet appointed the pastor of Jizhou, and I don't know who will govern Jizhou or how it will be governed. I, the giant deer county, am too guarded, and I don't feel at ease. You say, should I resign and return to the field? ”

"Brother Guo Dian, you said you resigned and returned to the field? Ha, don't laugh, although you are too guarded, you are actually a martial artist, do you know how to farm? Liu Xian made fun of Guo Dian and said with a smile.

"No, my brother is telling you seriously, and you don't know about your brother's situation. Recently, my brother has been worried, in case ......," Guo Dian said with a serious look.

"In case anything, Brother Guo Dian, you can rest assured." Liu Xian interrupted Guo Dian's words and said, "Brother Guo Dian, how can I not know about your situation?" If it weren't for the fact that the younger brother had a lot of things to do in Liulin City, he would have wanted to have an interview with Brother Guo Dian a long time ago. ”

"Oh? Do you put your brother at ease? What is the basis for this? Guo Dian lifted his spirits a little and said.

"What is the basis for this? Don't forget, Julu County still owes me a lot of money for Liu Xian, according to the current situation, I can't think of paying off the money I paid earlier in three years. For the sake of this payment, I, Liu Xian, also have to keep you, the giant deer Taishou. Otherwise, if another person is replaced to serve as the giant deer taishou, I won't feel at ease. So, please Brother Guo Dian, you really rest assured, you won't have a problem. Liu Xian comforted Guo Diandao.

"No, Brother Liu Xian, you see that even Lord Huangfu has been dismissed and transferred, how can you keep Guo?" Guo Dian looked at Liu Xian with some suspicion.

"Needless to say, didn't the imperial court summon me to Beijing now? My righteous lady Ma Guiren is also in the capital, if anyone wants to touch you, how can I sit idly by in the capital? I will definitely run for you and keep you safe. But ......"

"But what?"

"Heh, there's nothing, just to discuss with you. Let's put it this way, Brother Guo Dian, can you completely control Julu County now? ”

"Take complete control of Julu County? Brother Liu Xian, what do you mean by this? Guo Dian didn't quite understand.

"It means that Julu County, there are so many large and small officials below, as well as county magistrates, officials, etc., do they have the same heart as you?"

"This ...... Guo doesn't dare to guarantee it, you know, my brother is only good at unifying the army, and he actually has to deal with many affairs in the county. Some of these officials were appointed by General Huangfu, and some of them were already there. In a county, there are so many powerful people, almost every powerful person, and someone has been installed in the official mansion as an official, I think...... Most of the officials represent their interests, and it is unlikely that they are of the same mind as us. ”

Guo Dian is not the Taishou Liu Festival of Beihai County, he still has a certain amount of control over Julu, but if he wants to talk about all of them, this Guo Dian doesn't dare to say it.

"Well, I see." Liu Xian nodded and said, "Brother Guo Dian, you have almost no foundation in the court, but you are brothers, and I will definitely try my best to keep you." However, as the Taishou of Julu, you must firmly control the real power of Julu County. Based on your current situation, I plan to send some people to your side to help you deal with the giant deer. Then, slowly remove those officials who are not of the same heart as you and me, and replace them with our own people. ”

"Okay, but what's in it for us?"

"The benefits? That's a lot. Of course, we're not doing this for the sake of any benefit. What we have to do is just to better manage Julu, so that the people of Julu can live and work in peace and contentment, everyone has food to eat, and they can live a better life. There are some things that I can't understand with you for a while, I suggest that you go to Liulin City and Yangshi County to have a look, and after reading it, you will know what benefits it will have. ”

"Okay, I'll definitely check it out." Guo Dianyi moved.

"In short, we brothers are of one mind, and we will work together to manage the giant deer."

"Brother Liu Xian, sometimes you really make your brother admire." Guo Dian hugged his fist at Liu Xian and said, "If you are grateful, my brother won't say much." Anyway, in the future, my brother will rely on you, Brother Liu Xian. “

"Hehe, everything is easy to say."

"Ah, yes, I almost forgot. After General Huangfu was dismissed, he summoned me. Speaking of you, he said, let you be careful, if you can, don't enter Beijing. Guo Dian's face suddenly changed, and he said, "Brother Liu Xian, but you are going to Beijing now, is there something wrong?" ”

With Guo Dian's political wisdom, he really doesn't know what danger the imperial court will have when he summons Liu Xian to Beijing.

Liu Xian naturally didn't want to explain to Guo Dian, so he waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, you don't have to ask or care about my entry into Beijing, and you can't take care of it." Let's talk about how to arrange my people's affairs. ”

"That's good......" Guo Dian didn't have any opinion.

Liu Xian had long planned to control the entire Julu County through Guo Dian, but the time had not come, but Liu Xian could influence Beihai County through Liu Jie.

Now, Liu Xian feels that it is the right time, not to mention controlling Julu through Guo Dian or something, but it is not too easy to do it, especially when Liu Xian has to go to Beijing, this time in Beijing, Liu Xian doesn't know when he will be able to come back. Therefore, Liu Xian planned to install some of his own people first, and when he wanted to control the giant deer, he would also have an internal response.

is also as Guo Dian himself worried, in case Guo Dian is really about to be forcibly dismissed by the imperial court, and Liu Xian will not be able to change the holy decree, then at that time, he will still have someone in the Julu County Mansion. It's also a little easier to want to [ ] do something.

Liu Xian can try his best to keep Guo Dian and let Guo Dian lean on himself, and in the future, he will have to serve himself.

Naturally, there is no need to rush all this.

However, Liu Xian didn't expect that Huang Fu Song would remember to confess to Guo Dian to warn himself before leaving. From this point of view, this Huangfu Song is probably also an understanding person.

Liu Xian didn't say anything more to Guo Dian, he had to hurry the next day, and after a while, they each rested.

The Liu Mansion caravan arrived at Julu County at night, and when it came, it didn't cause any sensation, after all, after nightfall, Julu County still had a curfew. In Jizhou, if the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army was not destroyed for a day, then all the towns and cities did not dare to take it lightly, and at night, the curfew was inevitable.

But the next day, when the Liu Mansion caravan was about to set off, it caused a sensation in Julu City.

The Liufu caravan of thousands of people was fanfare, and the people in the city were amazed.

Among them, many of them had heard of the Liu Mansion caravan, but they had not seen it.

If Liu Xian wanted to cause a bigger sensation, then he could stay in Julu City for three or two days, and then let people spread the word, threatening that the Liu Mansion caravan could incidentally protect the merchants who wanted to travel the capital. If such a propaganda is made, Liu Xian believes that there will definitely be many businessmen who will join the Liu Mansion caravan and will follow the Liu Mansion caravan together. When the time comes, the team will definitely grow bigger.

In this way, it can actually be regarded as a way for Liu Xian to plan to enter Beijing with a high profile.

However, Liu Xian did not plan to let other merchants join his caravan.

Because Liu Xian knows that even if he enters Beijing in a high-profile manner, he must grasp such a degree. His current caravan has more than 5,000 people, and such a caravan should be regarded as a big caravan in the entire Han Dynasty. But even if it was a large caravan, it was only 5,000 people, and this number of people seemed to be within the control of the officers and soldiers of the imperial court.

However, if Liu Xian's caravan reached tens of thousands or more, then it would be difficult for Liu's caravan to enter Beijing. When it came to Guanzhen, which entered the capital, it was impossible for the defenders there to allow such a large caravan to enter the area around the capital.

said goodbye to Guo Dian and left Julu.

There is still a long way to go, and this road will certainly not be peaceful.

Now Jizhou seems to have entered a period of relative tranquility. At least, on the surface, the southern and eastern regions of Jizhou and the western Hanoi region are indeed firmly under the control of the government. The Yellow Turban Army is in Montenegro, and it is indeed difficult for it to enter the southern area of Jizhou to cause chaos.

However, these are all superficial.

There are few places where this can be done as well as Yang's County. Yangshi County is not only the county seat, but also the general villages and towns below. However, in other places, in fact, only the cities in various places will be relatively safe.

Many of the ordinary villages and towns that have left the protection of towns have not recovered until now, and they are still in a dilapidated depression.

In some mountains and forests, there are basically bandits and robbers, who will rob passers-by.

If it is some relatively steep mountains that are not easy to be attacked by government officers and soldiers, it is not surprising that there are some mountain bandits of a large scale in those places.

Therefore, Liu Xian will definitely not take it lightly, he must be careful all the way, if he arrives in some dangerous places, he will definitely let the people in the dark camp reconnoiter first, confirm that there will be no ambush, so that the caravan will pass.
