1.15 Take a back seat
"The phase of the country is the same as the Taishou, and the food is 2,000 stones. And this person is in the spotlight, if he is calmly granted, he may be criticized. It's better to settle for the next best. It was the king who spoke.
"In this way, it may be a long history." Ji Du Yin Lougui said.
"The prime minister has a long history, but 600 stones, which is too little." The princess did not allow it.
"Return to the princess. The ministers of the vassal states were appointed by the imperial court. If there is no minister of state, he can temporarily put aside the long history and act as the national government. It is understandable that he will be promoted to a thousand stones at his discretion. Lou Gui replied again.
"There is no national minister, only a long history." The princess then understood the deep meaning of her words. In this way, we can not only hold the government of a country, but also avoid the suspicion of trespassing. After all, the prime minister of a country needs to be appointed by the imperial court, and the princes and kings have no right to grant it to others on their own.
"Why don't you order Lang Zhong to temporarily manage national affairs." Wang Fu spoke again.
The princes' palace, one person in the Lang Zhongling, the rank of Qianshi, the main palace doctor, Lang and other subordinate officials. The palace is a subordinate official, and the princes and kings should be decided. If he is then temporarily put in charge of state affairs, he should be exempted from the suspicion of trespassing.
"That's good." The princess nodded in agreement.
The country of Ji is also a prince. but he sent his vassals to his neighbors. Temporarily take over the government of a country.
Xin's Erjie, although he didn't say a word, was in turmoil.
Re-association. At the beginning of the rebellion, the Yellow Turban took refuge in the Jizhou princes and kings in the Six Kingdoms Pavilion of the Ji Kingdom. The key is obvious. The Six Nations and the Ji Kingdom are bound to have a close relationship. As for the degree of intimacy, it is not known unless the humerus is important.
After the ministers finished discussing, the princess asked through the curtain: "Are you two willing to temporarily take the position of Lang Zhongling and share the worries of the king of Zhongshan and the king of Hejian?" ”
The two heroes of the Xin family bowed down in unison: "Minister, take the order." ”
"That being the case. When he stayed in the next court, he went to the Ziyuan Six Kingdoms Pavilion with Youcheng to meet the two kings and went to work on the same day. The princess said.
"Whoa!" The two of them retreated into the side room and waited for the arrival of the right prime minister.
The palace maids offered fragrant tea cakes and then retreated. When only the two of them were left to meditate, Xin Bi said, "Dare to ask my brother." You and my brother are now the ministers of the thistle country? ”
"Yes, yes." Xin Ping nodded slightly.
"Since you are a vassal of the King of Thistle, why did you send it to a neighboring country?" Simbi asked again.
Xin replied: "The king and the kings are all relatives of the Han family. When a national crisis is at the head, supporting each other is also the common sense of the country and the common sense of people. ”
"What does the king want?" Simbi finally asked.
"Let's see where you and my subordinates come from." Xin commented in one sentence.
Simbi nodded, "Brother, think the same way." ”
Today's small court meeting, there is not much to do. Before the middle of the day, the dynasty was dispersed.
Geng Yong, the prime minister of the right country, entered the side room and met the two. Take the royal carriage together and enter the prime minister's house for luncheon.
The guests and hosts sat down, and the Xin brothers toasted each other. Geng Yong also replied. After the cup was dropped, Geng Yong said: "It coincides with an eventful autumn, and the road is cut off. The kings have repeatedly gone up to inquire about state affairs. All of them are sunk in the sea. Shang Shu Ling, 'Lang officials are overstretched, and their own use is still insufficient, how to send the vassal state'. ”
At the beginning of the Qin and Han dynasties, Lang officials belonged to Lang Zhongling, and Emperor Wu was changed to Guangluxun. The number of posts is uncertain, and it reaches 5,000 people at most times, including the four members of the Lang, the Zhonglang, the Shilang, and the Langzhong. The main responsibility is to guard the gate, charge the car and ride, and also be ready to be sent by the emperor's adviser at any time. At the beginning, he was appointed as a son (a person who was appointed as an official because of the merits of his father and brother) and a person who was elected (a person who was qualified to be appointed as an official with considerable property). Later, Emperor Wu discussed from Dong Zhongshu and began to make the county sponsor filial piety as Langzhong every year.
The two Han Lang officials often have the opportunity to serve as local governors. It was regarded as an important way to become a leader.
Such as Jia Xu and Xun You, they were all Lang. but they all abandoned their officials and left.
The Kanto and Kansai regions were in turmoil, and bandits swarmed up. His Majesty has been alone in Luoyang for less than a year, and Lang Guan has gone for the most part. And even no one is available. The fact that Song Xiao and his ilk can assassinate the history of a state shows that the government is not doing well, and how it is withering.
The "Shangshu Lingyan" in Youcheng's mouth must refer to Shangshu Lingcao Jie, a private word.
Seeing that the right man told the state affairs bluntly, Xin Ping also confided in his heart: "The two of us, since they have ascended the golden platform and come out of the Ji Kingdom, they are the king." But if there is a need, the right man only commands, and there is no need to see outside. ”
Geng Yong smiled: "That's very good. And the two subordinate officials were taken out of the cities. Defend the territory for the kings. ”
Xin's two heroes are both resourceful. It can be seen that it can be climbed on the sixth floor.
Then he realized: "We will wait, and we will 'guard the territory for the kings.'" ”
In the afternoon, the three of them went to the Ziyuan Six Nations Pavilion together. Meet the two kings of Zhongshan and Hejian. That is, the position of the lieutenant commander of the bay lang.
Saying. The blood book of the alliance of the six countries, Liu Bei has long known. Although it is not explicitly stated, facts speak louder than words. Today, the two heroes of the Xin family came, and the two kings knew it well. Peace of mind. King Ji sent two people to govern on his behalf, so he had the intention of acquiescing to the blood alliance.
The Seven-Nation Alliance was established.
And so. If the right man asks for something, the two kings will respond. The joy and harmony made Xin's Erjie more determined. There will be an alliance among the seven nations.
The reason why the two countries of Zhongshan and Hejian were chosen first was because the two countries bordered the country of Ji. The yellow turban thieves in the territory are scattered and disorderly, and the gathering is impermanent. The members are even more diverse. Most of them are mainly rogues, and they are not diehards of Zhang Jiao's descendants. And Guo Zu, who secretly communicated with the country of Ji, is rumored to be wandering near the country of Zhongshan.
The two kings only give the king's orders. Official uniforms and ribbons, and so on, are all out of the thistle country.
When the car returned to the royal capital, Zuo Cheng had already chosen a mansion for the two. Then enter the palace and worship as a prince of the palace.
The confessor, with a rank of 400 stones, served as an envoy on the king's orders.
Although the dynasty has dispersed, Wang Fu, Henghai Zhonglang General, the Minister of State, Ji Du Yin and others are all there.
"Most of the Yellow Turbans, although they are trapped in Guangzong, the rest are still widely spread in Jizhou." Geng Yong got straight to the point: "The two of you are going, you should beg for the thief first, and then settle the people." ”
Wang Fu instructed again: "The scout is coming." There are large and small yellow turban thieves, hidden in Zhongshan, Changshan, Zhaojun, Shangdang, Hanoi and other counties, and in the valleys of Taihang. The number of people varies, with the largest number of Qingzhou Yellow Turban Canal Marshal Zhang Rao's department, or more than 300,000. ”
Xin Ping then asked: "Why did the Qingzhou Yellow Turban go north to Jizhou?" ”
"This is to help Zhang Jiao. Blocked by the Han army in the river. Later, taking advantage of the Liyang Battalion and other garrisons to rush to the aid of Changshe, they took the opportunity to cross the river and enter Bohai County in chaos. He also plundered our country. Lost several battles in a row, with more than 10,000 casualties. Seeing that nothing could be done, he led his troops westward. I want to join forces with the Taihang tribes. Counterattack the Han army and relieve the siege of Guangzong. Huang Zhong replied.
"Where is the Yellow Turban in Qingzhou today?" Xin Ping asked again.
"Or garrison troops in Anping." Huang Zhong replied again.
Anping is sandwiched between Zhongshan and Hejian. It is also adjacent to the country of thistle.
Xin commented on this and woke up: "The king wants to break the Yellow Turban connection between the two states of Qinghai and Hebei, and defeat the Yellow Turban of Qingzhou in Anping." ”
"Yes, yes." Right Cheng Geng Yong smiled and praised: "Zhongzhi is really talented." ”
"I dare not be ashamed." After a little contemplation, Xin commented again: "Although the yellow scarves are mixed, they are not a rabble. The 300,000 rebel army was by no means the result of World War I. When slowly drawing is one of them. Differentiation and disintegration are also the second one. If you can collect it for your own use, it will be the best plan. ”
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and smiled.
Right Cheng Geng Yong stroked his palms and sighed: "Zhongzhi's words coincide with the lord's father. The lord once said in a letter that if he could collect 300,000 Qingzhou thieves, he could be compiled into 'Qingzhou soldiers'. ”
Since he sat down, Xin Bi, who had not said a word, said amazingly at this time: "If the lord has 300,000 elite soldiers, why worry about the uncertain world." ”
Geng Yong, the right man, nodded happily: "Xin's second master, sure enough." ”
