Chapter 41: Tian Chou

In the following ten days, Chen Cheng took Kebineng and them out to hunt a few times, harvested a lot of prey, and more or less solved the food problem of some Xianbei people. After that time, he did not go to live in the Xianbei camp again. It's not that I can't stand the screaming at night, but because I'm afraid that the tiger will hurt people.

Xianbei people, like Wuhuan people, have the habit of raising dogs. The dogs in the camp were so frightened by the tigers that they barked and screamed, and the tigers almost went berserk.

Then, Yan Rou came back from Jicheng, with Liu Yu's orders, as well as thousands of stones of grain and grass.

Liu Yuzi Bo'an, the son of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, after Liu Qiang, the son of Emperor Liu Xiu of the East China Sea, served as the minister of Ganling, Zongzheng and other positions, because Gongsun Chan won first and then lost, and because the imperial court wanted to use the clan to control the world and other factors, he was appointed as the pastor of Youzhou. In addition to him, there were also capable and prestigious people in the clan such as Liu Yan, Liu Biao, and Liu Miao who were sent to all parts of the country.

From this aspect, Emperor Ling still has a very clear understanding of the situation of the country, knows that the world will be in chaos, and wants to rely on the emperor's relatives to maintain the rule of the Han Dynasty. Coupled with the previous cancellation of the party in order to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it can be said that Liu Hong, the Emperor of Han Ling, who is known as the faint monarch, is so high that he doesn't know where to go than Emperor Chongzhen, who was boasted by some people.

Of course, he also has problems, and they are still big, but the bad guys have put down the largest Taoist uprising in history, and they have wiped out many guys who are kings and hegemons. As for the eunuch dictatorship, the problem of relatives sitting big, eunuchs and relatives are two of the three pillars of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and they have been entangled for I don't know how many years, and it is really not to blame Emperor Ling's head.

Liu Yu's political philosophy is completely different from Gongsun Zhan's, he does not agree with Gongsun Zhan's toughness to the outside world and want to kill all the Hu people, but advocates the use of gentle means. Therefore, after receiving Tian Yu's recital, he quickly wrote a reply, and allocated thousands of stones of grain from the treasury to the Xianbei people who took refuge, and also rewarded a lot of gold, silver and cloth.

When Yan Rou rushed back with a lot of things, Tian Yu didn't dare to slack off, and immediately summoned Kebineng to the city, read Liu Yu's edict in person, and counted the gold, silver, cloth, grain and other things in person, and then handed them over to the Xianbei people.

Looking at the truckloads of grain and cloth, the soldiers and civilians in the city were in mixed moods. If the Xianbei people have food, they don't need to use their reserves, which is a good thing. But Liu Yu's practice of giving rewards to outsiders and ignoring his own family is really a bit uncomfortable.

But to say that he is disgusted with the new state pastor, it is not so much. Although no grain and grass have been allocated to Guanzi City, this year's tax has been exempted, so it can be regarded as a favor, isn't it? You must know that the taxes in these years can force all the powerful to rise up and rebel, and almost no one shouts about the empire's ten thousand taxes.

Kirby was able to collect the grain happily, but he divided the gold and silver into several parts very well, and gave one to Chen Cheng, Tian Yu and others. Chen Cheng accepted it honestly and unceremoniously, and Tian Yu said righteously: "This official has always been honest and honest, how can he accept your bribe?" Take it back! ”

Kebineng sighed in his heart, these days, there are really too few people who don't collect money. Even the emperor also sold his official position at a clear price. He was sighing in his heart, and Tian Yu said again: "Since your tribe is not short of money or food now, let's settle the money for food and coal." ”

"Huh?"

"There are hundreds of people in your tribe who live in the city, and they eat with people's fat and people's ointment, so if you didn't have money before, forget it, but now that you have money, shouldn't you pay the bill?"

Kebineng was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and then handed the bag of gold and silver out again. This time, Tian Yu did not refuse, but took it very happily.

This..... This......... Isn't that sick? Kebi can muttered in his heart, he wants to collect money anyway, why bother so much?

Chen Cheng accepted the money that Kebi could be filial to with peace of mind, and he didn't take this matter to heart at all. As usual, in the evening, he took the tiger out of the city for a walk. As soon as they arrived near the west gate, they heard someone shouting, "Stop! ”

He looked left and right, and the inhabitants of the city were afraid of the tiger, and they were far away, so he reined in his horse, turned around, pointed his finger at his own nose, and said, "Are you calling me?" ”

More than ten steps away, a middle-aged man stood in the street, followed by several soldiers. The man reprimanded, "Who are you?" Dare to walk on the street with a beast of prey, is it because he wants to lead the beast to eat people? ”

There were thousands of soldiers in the city, and even if Chen Cheng couldn't name them, most of them were familiar, but this middle-aged man and the soldiers behind him had never seen a single one. He asked rhetorically, "Who are you?" ”

The man said coldly; "A certain Naizhou is engaged in Tianchou, and on the order of Liu Zhijun, he preached Liaoxi."

"It turned out to be Tian," Chen Cheng arched his hand on horseback and said: "This is a coincidence, my county order is also surnamed Tian, I don't know if the two of you are old acquaintances?" ”

Seeing that the other party was getting more and more unkind, he smiled and said, "Under Chen Cheng, Xi is the local agent of the county, and I have seen Tian Cheng. ”

"You are Chen Cheng and Chen Wenzheng?" Tian Chou's face was a little pale, and he said: "Since you are a court official, you should set an example and set an example for the people!" You kill these three beasts now. ”

"Huh?"

Tian Chou snorted and said, "Eliminate harm for the people, are you still unwilling?" ”

The smile on Chen Cheng's face retracted, and he frowned: "Now these big cats are still small and can't hurt people, I plan to release them into the mountains and forests in the spring next year, so I don't need to kill them, right?" ”

Tian Chou straightened his face and said, "Haven't you heard of the phrase "tiger relic?" Even if you put them back in the mountains, there is no guarantee that they will not bite people in the future, so it is better to kill them first! ”

“...........”

What people say makes sense, what should I do if I am speechless?

He thought for a while and said, "What Tian Cheng said makes sense, but he has been raising it for a long time, and he can't do it." Otherwise, before I let them go, I'll be strict and make sure they don't cause trouble, how about it? ”

Tian Chou was furious, "Didn't you understand what the official said, or what?" Slaughter these three beasts at once! If you don't do it, a certain family will let their soldiers do it for you! ”

"Choking", several soldiers behind him are all good sons in the Yan Zhao area, and their skills are very good, at this time, Qi Qi pulled out his blades, and he looked even more elite. But.........

Chen Cheng laughed and said, "Isn't it from Jicheng?" ”

"So what?"

"You've probably been in the big city for a long time, you don't know what we're doing here, and you don't know much about me."

"Hmph, I'm going to see what you can say."

Chen Cheng ignored the situation of the sword unsheathed on the opposite side, and said slowly: "As for me, I once led troops to fight with the rebels. When he was fighting, he took the lead every time and killed three or four hundred people with his own hands in the battle array. ”

He narrowed his eyes, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "There are less than ten of you, or you can chop them all up in a while, I don't know if you believe it or not?" ”

Chen Cheng is usually polite and polite, and he always has a smile on his face, plus he is also good-looking, so it is easy to win the favor of others. But now he suddenly turned his face, squinted his eyes and sneered, and a cold murderous aura naturally emerged from his body, making the hairs on Tian Chou's back stand up.

Even if he said that he was boasting about cutting three or four hundred people, then a five-fold discount would be a fierce general who killed more than 100 people. In the face of such a fierce general, Tian Chou only felt that his breathing was a little unsmooth. He was so angry that his hands and feet trembled, and the corners of his mouth trembled: "Rebellious, lead beasts to eat people!" ”

Chen Cheng said lightly: "Lead the beast to eat people? Mencius said: There is fat meat, there are fat horses in the stables, the people are hungry, and the wild are hungry. I've just raised a few fierce beasts, and they won't hurt people when they're full, where can they compare to the officials and families who knock out the bones and suck the marrow? Tian Zhi is a newcomer, so it's better to see more and listen less talking. ”

The three tigers following him already showed some psychic signs, and at this time they all made a gesture of lunging forward, and there was a threatening roar in their throats.

The color on Tian Chou's face changed several times, and finally flicked his sleeves and said hatefully: "I will definitely inform Liu Yuanjun about this matter!" ”

"That's your business," Chen Cheng stretched out his hand and said, "Please take care of yourself." ”

Tian Chou came here, firstly, for the sake of Kebi's refuge in the imperial court, and secondly, to declare the authority of the state pastor. Liu Yu has just taken office, and the local officials and the powerful families have not yet sincerely attached themselves, and as Liu Yu, he is naturally worried about the lord. It just so happened that Tian Yu, the local county magistrate appointed by Gongsun Zhan, was his clansman, so he rushed here in the wind and snow.

Who knows, just after coming, I encountered such a hard nail!

It's not fake to say angry, but isn't this an opportunity? The killing of chickens and monkeys has been done since ancient times. If you can take a fierce general like Chen Cheng to stand up, you are not afraid of Gongsun Zan and not afraid!

He turned around and came to the county office, and after seeing Tian Yu, he first told about the affairs of the clan, and then went straight to the point: "Please immediately remove Chen Cheng from the position of acting county and arrest him to prison!" ”

Tian Yu listened to it and said in his heart: If I dare to give such an order, I am afraid that it will not be Wenzheng who will be locked up in prison, but the two of us.

He asked what happened, and then said disapprerovingly: "It's just a few tigers that haven't grown up, just let him go, why bother Zitai?" ”

Tian Chou, whose name is Zitai, is a person who has no end in Beiping.

Tian Chou said: "How can this be said to be a fuss? Isn't this the territory of my Great Han? If he has broken the law, he should be punished severely! ”

Tian Yu said with a smile: "How many people have not broken the law in these years?" If it really has to be severely punished, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos. ”

Tian Chou pondered for a while, looked left and right, and said, "I have a few words, I want to share them privately with Tian County Order, and you all go down." ”

Tian Yu understood, and let the people on his side also go to the hall to wait. Seeing that there was no one nearby, Tian Chou leaned forward and said in a low voice: "Guo Rang thinks that I will really be angry for a fake county prince?" To tell you the truth, since Liu Yuanjun took office, he has issued several official documents, but the arrogant soldiers and fierce generals in the state have completely ignored them. made Jun furious, and he had long wanted to rectify it. That Chen Wenzheng is arrogant and arrogant, openly raising fierce beasts, as long as the state takes down this person, he will definitely be appreciated by Liu Yuanjun! ”

Tian Yu smiled and said, "Does Zitai know that my position as a county commander was appointed by General Zhonglang?" ”
