Chapter 159: Heart-wrenching

At this moment, the political situation in the imperial court is chaotic, the officials are **, and nepotism, such as Zhao Yi, a feudal official who holds real power, will naturally use the power in his hands to place his family relatives in some important official positions, so intertwined, echoing each other and becoming an unbreakable relationship network.

Just now I recommended two people from Zhuo County, Zhao Yi was not satisfied, the appointment of relatives can be said to be obvious, Qin Chong was a little disdainful of Zhao Yi at this time, since there is already a candidate in his heart, is it necessary to ask me? It's not about embarrassing me.

Contrary to Qin Chong's expectations, Zhao Yi took two steps and suddenly turned his head to point at Qin Chong: "The best person in the official's heart is you, Zhuojun Cheng Qin Chong." ”

Qin Chong trembled, Zhao Yi's answer was beyond his expectations, Zhao Yi did not appoint his own henchmen, but appointed himself as an outsider, Rao is Qin Chong's heart has always been endless, and his face changed dramatically when he was shocked by Zhao Yi's words. I don't understand what Zhao Yi's intention is?

Did you lift me up in the air and fall me hard? Qin Chong's face changed several times, and finally asked: "I am afraid that it will be difficult to take on a heavy responsibility." "Qin Chong, who has been a county guard for so many years, naturally has the intention of being a county guard. If it was an order from the imperial court, he would immediately be grateful for the edict, but this was said by Zhao Yi, so Qin Chong didn't dare to agree rashly.

Zhao Yi looked at Qin Chong's eyes, and he was clear about Qin Chong's thoughts, and he didn't hide it, and directly said Qin Chong's thoughts: "Lord Juncheng, don't worry about anything else, the adults are worried, and the official can also guess one or two, you are not my confidant, you are afraid that I will seek revenge, right?" "If Qin Chong takes over the position of county guard and acts slightly wrong, Zhao Yi may put him to death.

Seeing that Zhao Yi said it so clearly, Qin Chong did not hide his inner thoughts, and admitted Zhao Yi's guess: "Not bad." ”

"If you think so, you will live up to the hard work of this official, if this official wants to attack you, do you have to wait until now?" A smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Yi's mouth, Zhuo County's military power was in Zhao Yi's hands, and it was effortless to attack and kill Qin Chong, a powerless countyman. Afterwards, Zhao Yi could also ensure that the imperial court could not find any clues.

Qin Chong's gaze turned twice, and what Zhao Yi said was true. Eighty percent of the soldiers in Zhuojun are Zhao Yi's old department, and the generals who are loyal to Zhao Yi are even more numerous, if Zhao Yi wants to attack himself, then his head is long gone. The situation in Youzhou is so complicated, casually blaming the Wuhuan tribe or the Xianbei tribe for the crime of attacking and killing the county Cheng, the imperial court can't find out if it wants to.

Seeing that Zhao Yi didn't calculate his own heart, Qin Chong was even more strange and asked Zhao Yi: "Why does your lord want to hand over the official position of Zhuojun County Guard to a lowly position?" ”

Zhao Yi walked two steps: "Because you are ruthless and vicious, but you are outstanding." Put Zhuojun into your hands, and the official can rest assured. Saying that, Zhao Yi patted Qin Chong's shoulder, "This official has prepared this matter and reported it to the imperial court." Tomorrow, the adults will be able to control the civil and military affairs at all levels of the county, and when the official documents of the imperial court come down, they will take office. ”

Zhao Yi's heart-wrenching words made Qin Chong burst into tears, and he bowed sincerely to Zhao Yi for the first time, he treated Zhao Yi like this before, Zhao Yi not only blamed himself, but also handed over the important official position of Zhuojun County Guard to himself, how could Qin Chong not be grateful.

Let Qin Chong be the county guard of Zhuo County, Zhao Yi also thought about it, Qin Chong is ignorant of military affairs, but he is a talent who governs the world, and he relies on the steel knife in his hand to fight the world, but to govern the world, he has to rely on virtuous ministers such as Qin Chong and Cheng Yin who are engaged in internal affairs. Zhao Yi said a few words, although he did not kill Qin Chong, but he killed Qin Chong's heart, making Qin Chong surrender willingly. This is also Zhao Yi's cleverness, it is better to kill it, it is better to use it for me.

Zhao Yi has already sent the documents to the capital, and if nothing happens, the imperial court will approve it. Qin Chong's depressed mood seemed to be released in an instant, as if he had returned to his youth, and he was full of ambition to handle the affairs of Zhuo County.

Zhao Yi walked into the backyard, heard bursts of shouting, and saw at a glance that Xiao Zhao Yun was practicing martial arts diligently under the guidance of Tong Yuan.

When fighting with the Montenegrin army, Zhao Yi had already sent soldiers to take Zhao Yun's family to Zhuo County, and Zhao Yi naturally had to hold it tightly in his hands as a peerless general like Zhao Yun. As for whether Uncle Liu Huang will have five tiger generals in the future, that is not something that Zhao Yi can consider.

Tong Yuan stroked his long gray hair, looked at Zhao Yun with a satisfied face, heard the slight footsteps, turned his head slightly, and saw Zhao Yi Tong Yuan bowed his hand slightly, which was regarded as a salute to Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi had great respect for Tong Yuan's generation of martial arts masters, and he was not angry at Tong Yuan's rudeness, and asked with a smile: "Is there anything wrong with the predecessors in Zhuo County?" ”

"The grass man is just a martial artist, he is old and old, and he is so courteous to the general, which really flatters the old man." When Zhao Yi brought Tong Yuan to Zhuo County, he ordered Gao Shun to entertain Zhao Yun and Tong Yuan. Gao Shun's actions can be described as meticulous and comprehensive. The old man was served very well, and in just a few days, Zhao Yun's family's somewhat sallow faces became a lot more ruddy.

"Meeting is fate, and many of the juniors' subordinates have benefited a lot from fighting with their seniors, which is also what the juniors should do." Zhao Yi bowed and said.

Tong Yuan glanced at Zhao Yi with a smile, and was swept away by Tong Yuan's sparkling eyes, Zhao Yi felt as if Tong Yuan had seen his thoughts. The heart said that this kind of human spirit who has lived for many years is not so easy to deal with.

"The situation in Youzhou is not as good as that of Jizhou, the people are complicated, there are many tribes, and the adults are Youzhou pastors at this time, can they have a governance strategy in their hearts?" Tong Yuan stared at Zhao Yi with burning eyes.

Zhao Yi stretched out two fingers: "When the younger generation is in the capital, he plans to make two strategies: royal and domineering. ”

"What is the royal road? What is domineering? Tong Yuan glanced at Zhao Yi and asked.

"The royal way is to convince people with virtue, and the domineering way is to convince people with strength." Zhao Yi said slowly.

Tong Yuan's eyes flashed when he heard Zhao Yi's words: "Hehe, the combination of grace and power, there is really the wind of a king." ”

The wind of the king is not nonsense, Rao is Zhao Yi has the conditions to be the king at this time, and he was also startled when he heard Tong Yuan's words: "Please be careful with your words, if you are afraid of losing your head." ”

Tong Yuan looked at the cautious Zhao Yi with a smile, and did not refute Zhao Yi's words, but said: "From tomorrow, the adults can leave their subordinates in the backyard, and the old man should personally advise." ”

Zhao Yi's eyes flashed, and he agreed immediately without hesitation. At this time, the soldiers in the mansion came to report, and the captain Yang Xiu invited Zhao Yi to the mansion for a banquet.

Tong Yuan looked at Zhao Yi's back with deep eyes, and admired in his heart, this son has a deep ambition, and he will not be a thing in the pool one day.

Yang Xiu was in Luoyang City, and Zhao Zhong once instructed Yang Xiu to have a good relationship with Zhao Yi and learn from Zhao Yi. And take the incident of the Montenegrin Army as an example, saying that he is very pleased with Yang Xiu's growth. At the same time, he said to Yang Xiu earnestly that if Yang Xiu's ability improved, he would dare to give Yang Xiu a higher official position. This made Yang Xiu elated, and in the eyes of the ten permanent servants, Yang Xiu's identity was much closer than Zhao Yi. If Yang Xiu really has the ability to do great things, Zhao Zhong will naturally hand over more important official positions to Yang Xiu. At that time, Zhao Yi was just a foil for himself.

But in the words of his wife Zhao, before it is done, Zhao Yi still has to be wooed.

Zhao Yi came to the Yang Mansion with a familiar car, unlike last time, the frolicking flower bed in the backyard was transformed into a small martial arts training ground at this time, and two rows of weapon racks were erected on the bluestone slab, and all kinds of weapons were available. This made Zhao Yi's opinion of Yang Xiu change slightly, not to mention that it really meant to make some efforts. But seeing the thick layer of dust attached to the handle of the weapon, Zhao Yi smiled, and the good feeling that had just risen was instantly extinguished.

Yang Xiu and his wife personally welcomed Zhao Yi to the hall, which was considered to have given Zhao Yi a lot of face, and after two kind words during the banquet, Zhao Yi glanced at the couple in front of him and asked directly: "Du Wei and this official have known each other for a long time, so if you have something to say, just say it." ”

Yang Xiu saw Zhao Yi say this, laughed twice, personally poured Zhao Yi full of wine, and said with a little embarrassment: "I have been friends with adults for many days, and I am quite familiar with each other. So I would like to ask the general for help. ”

Zhao Yi understood what Yang Xiu meant, and Zhao Yi was also quite calculating about this matter, Yang Xiuwen could not succeed in martial arts, and it must be extremely difficult to act in Daijun, so he had to borrow Zhao Yi. Zhao Yi showed a lot of righteousness and said directly: "Don't worry, if the county is in trouble in the future, this official will personally lead the army there." ”

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Yang Xiu was quite moved: "The general was treated like this before, but the general still took care of the lowly position so much, thinking of the previous heavy actions, the lowly position is really guilty." As he spoke, Yang Xiu lowered his head. A look of repentance.

Zhao Yi helped Yang Xiu up with his own hands, and Wen Yan comforted Yang Xiu with two words, so that he could take office with peace of mind, and Zhao Yi would send troops to help if something happened.

"The general is full of righteousness, and his humble duty is remembered in his heart. However, Daijun is quite far away from Youzhou City, and if the general's army arrives, the Xianbei Iron Cavalry may have already broken through the official and military defense lines, as the so-called far water can't save the near fire. Yang Xiu said some reasons, and then paused, "Actually, the humble position is to find a capable captain, with the help of the captain, even if you can't defeat the Xianbei cavalry, you can block it for a few days, and buy time for waiting for reinforcements." ”

Zhao Yi had long expected Yang Xiu to say this, and said directly: "Don't worry, there are many generals under this official, and one person can be sent over." ”

Zhao Yi's subordinates are all capable of conscription, and with them guarding Daijun, Daijun is naturally impregnable. However, Zhao Yi looked at Yang Xiu's face, and he did not have the happy expression that Zhao Yi expected. Yang Xiu groaned for a while and said: "The general's subordinates are all generals who love generals, how can this official win people's love, in fact, this official has already been selected, and I want to ask the general to agree." 166 Reading Network
