Chapter 155: Xu Shu
"So what do I do now?" Liu Yu asked Qi Zhou.
"Envoy, there is nothing good for his subordinates to do now, for the sake of today, we can only appease Tang Zheng, and we can't take drastic measures against him, so as not to provoke him and turn him and the court against him. However, there is no need to worry too much, there is no indication that Tang Zheng has any plans to rebel against the Great Han, these are just our guesses! Qi Zhou said.
"Having said that, we still have to be prepared to deal with it, so that we don't have anything to defend ourselves against." Liu Yu said.
"Envoy, there is a sentence among subordinates that is not worth saying." Qi Zhou glanced at Liu Yu and said.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, there are no outsiders here." Liu Yu said absentmindedly.
"Instead of marrying Tang Zheng's sister, it is better to marry Tang Zheng. The subordinates heard that this Tang Zheng is a person who values love and righteousness, and he cares about his family very much. If the saint gives the eldest princess Liu Ling a marriage to Tang Zheng to envelop him, presumably Tang Zheng will be grateful for the kindness of the saint, loyal to the saint, and loyal to the Han. Qi Zhou said.
"Didn't you just say that marriage is not advisable? Why are you thinking about asking the Holy Lord to marry Tang Zheng now? Liu Yu said to Qi Zhou.
"Envoy, this is different. The eldest princess marries Tang Zheng, which is called marrying, if it is the prince who marries Tang Ji as his wife, it will be reported to the temple to announce to the world. Also, if the prince marries Tang Ji, then her brother Tang Zheng will not become a relative, so that the monarch also knows how harmful the relative is to the royal family. Qi Zhou said.
"Indeed, there are indeed many relatives who have troubled the government from ancient times to the present, but if the saint agrees to the eldest princess marrying Tang Zheng, is it harmless? Also, where are you putting royal face? Liu Yu asked Qi Zhou.
"Envoy, if the Holy Lord agrees to marry the eldest princess, this will not only not disgrace the royal family, but will also make the world feel that this is the Holy Lord's love for talents. Do you think that the people will think that the saint insists on marrying the eldest princess even though he knows that Tang Zheng is married? The people will only think that this is the importance that the saint attaches to Tang Zheng. If Tang Zheng rebelled against the Han Dynasty in the future, what do you think the people would think at that time? ”
"Oh, there's some truth to what you say, you go on."
"If Tang Zheng rebelled against the Han Dynasty, the people would definitely think that he was disloyal, because the saint married the eldest princess to him when he was already married, which shows how much the saint values him. Second, Tang Zheng betrayed the saint regardless of his wife's father-daughter relationship with the saint, which is unfilial. How many people can follow such a disloyal and unfilial man when he rebels? Was it easy for the court to quell the rebellion? ”
Liu Yu pondered for a while and felt that what Qi Zhou said was very reasonable, so he said to Qi Zhou: "Well, I will write to the Holy Lord to explain the situation in Youzhou, I hope that the Holy Lord can listen to the words of the old minister and consider the country of the Han Dynasty." After speaking, Liu Yu got up, spread out the paper, and prepared to write to Liu Hong in Luoyang.
Tang Zheng, who was receiving guests at the Rinshan City Hall, didn't know that Liu Yu was going to tell him another family matter, and if he knew, his jaw would probably drop. But now he doesn't have the heart to care about other things, how to leave the person in front of him in Rinshan is what Tang Zheng is thinking about now.
"Brother Yuan, please use tea." Tang Zheng said to a man who was sitting. This man is none other than Xu Shu, the character is straight, and he is from Yingchuan. This time I came to Rinshan City because I heard that the divine doctor Zhang Ji was sitting in Rinshan, so I took my sick mother from Yingchuan to Rinshan to ask Doctor Zhang for treatment. (Note: Xu Shu's real name is Xu Fu, and he was renamed Xu Shu after being arrested in 189 to avenge others.) In order to make it easier for everyone to read, try to use familiar names in the future. )
"The prince of the mansion is polite, how can he dare to bother the gentleman of the mansion for hospitality!" Xu Shu said to Tang Zheng. Maybe now because he hasn't gone through the matter of avenging people, Xu Shu is not like what is recorded in the history books.
"Yuan Zhi doesn't have to be polite, he is a guest from afar. What's more, it's still a dutiful son like Yuan Zhi!" Tang Zheng said to Xu Shu with a smile. "What does Yuan Zhi think about my Rinshan, and how about Youbeiping."
Although Xu Shu was curious about why Tang Zheng was so close to him, he still didn't ask, but just guessed in his heart. "Fujun, the places you have seen all the way from Yingchuan in Xia, not to mention compared with Rinshan, even the other counties in Youbeiping can't compare. It's not that it's not as good as Rinshan and not as good as Youbeiping, it's just that although those places also have prosperous trade towns, they are still very different from several cities in Youbeiping, but I can't tell you which one is different. ”
"Hahaha, I won't say it if I can't say it, it's rare to see a hometown person this time. Tonight, I'll do the east for the yuan, and wash the dust directly. Tang Zheng said.
"How dare you bother the prince of the house, today's invitation to the prince has flattered him, and the king of the house does not need to take the wind." Xu Shu said to Tang Zheng.
"Eh, I said it, it's rare to see a hometown person. Why do you have to see the outside like this, and besides, if the villagers come to my territory, if I don't fulfill the friendship of the landlord, what face will I have to face my father and fellow villagers when I return to Yingchuan in the future. Tang Zheng said.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, just let the prince break the bank!" Xu Shu arched his hand to Tang Zheng and said.
"What's the cost, as long as Yuan Zhi doesn't dislike me, I'm poor and despicable, and the coarse tea and light rice are slow and Yuan Zhi is good."
"Thanks to the hospitality of the prince, I am grateful, why not say it slowly."
"That's right, Yuan Zhi. I don't know what Lingtang's plans are for the future? ”
"I can't hide it, Mr. Fu, this time I plan to return to Yingchuan after my mother recovers and then concentrate on studying. Hey, it's just that it's so difficult for me to wait for the children of the Han family to become a leader! Xu Shu sighed and said to Tang Zheng.
"Oh, Yuan Zhi has plans to become a leader?" Tang Zheng asked Xu Shu.
"Scholars, who doesn't want to be an official and do something for the people of the world, it's just that it is difficult for me to wait for the children of the poor family to become officials, and now the Han Dynasty is also twilight, and there is no way to serve the court." Xu Shu said.
"Hahaha, that's good, as long as Yuan Zhi has this heart!" Tang Zheng said with a laugh.
"Why did the prince say that?" Xu Shu had some expectations in his heart, and he didn't mean to recommend himself to Tang Zheng when he said this to Tang Zheng.
"Since Yuanzhi has the heart to become a leader, why don't you stay in Rinshan? Now I'm short of a deputy, if Yuan Nao is willing to stay in Rinsan, I'll invite you with a long history! Tang Zheng said to Xu Shu.
"Thanks to the prince of the mansion not disliking, in the lower plain, the liver and brain of the monarch of the mansion are smeared!" When Xu Shu heard Tang Zheng say this, he immediately said excitedly.
"Yuan bluntly said seriously, and after Ling Tang's condition stabilized, Yuan Zhi went back to the city hall to take up his duties." Tang Zheng said to Xu Shu.
"Thank you, after my mother's condition stabilizes a little, I will invite you to come to Fujun before I make up my mind." Xu Shu said.
"Well said, well said. By the way, has Yuan Zhi found a place to stay? Tang Zheng asked.
"I live in the inn with my mother for the time being."
"Well, since Yuan Zhi will have to live in the inn in Rinshan in the future, it will be inconvenient. Brother Dian, you go and find a courtyard for Yuan Zhi to live in first, and wait until you have a suitable place to make a decision later. Tang Zheng said to Dian Wei, who was guarding the side.
"Brother Tang, in fact, there is a yard for sale next to my house, how about letting Brother Xu live next to me for the time being?" Dian Wei said.
"Well, what do you mean?" Tang Zheng asked Xu Shu.
"Trouble Fujun, trouble Big Brother Dian!" Xu Shu arched his hand to Tang Zheng and Dian Wei.
"Well, in that case, Brother Dian, you should take Yuan Zhi to the card to see the yard first." Tang Zheng said to Dian Wei.
Xu Shu bowed his hand to Tang Zheng and went to see the house under the leadership of Dian Wei.
