Chapter 243: Trade-offs
Jiang Qin chased after him at this time, saw that Han Xuan was talking to Lu Meng, and explained: "Lord, the last general really couldn't stop Lu Meng, so he let him break in." ”
Han Xuan glanced at Jiang Qin and said to him and Lu Meng: "I have ordered the two of you to take charge of the Danyang military and government together, and you two must study diligently, which will also be of great benefit to yourself." ”
Lu Meng said: "Lord, you can spare Lu Meng, I am busy with military affairs in the army, and I am afraid that I will not have time to study." ”
Han Xuan shook his head and said, "Do I want you to be a learned person who studies scriptures?" You just need to dabble in the doctrines and learn from the lessons of the past. You are busy with military affairs, who is like me, no matter how busy you are, you can't be busier than me. Since I was a child, I read "Poems", "Books", "Liji", "Zuo Chuan" and "Chinese", but I did not read "Yi". It wasn't until after the commander of Jiangdong that I read the three histories and the military books of each family, and I was deeply benefited by them. If you are the two of you, you are very smart, and it will definitely be beneficial to learn, so why not do it? He should quickly begin to learn "The Art of War", "Liutao", "Zuo Chuan", "Chinese" and the Three History. Confucius said: 'If you don't eat all day long, you don't sleep all night to think, it's useless, it's better to learn'. Emperor Guangwu was in charge of the army, and my commander Jiang Dong still often reads military books, let alone the two of you? ”
Jiang Qin bowed his head and said: "The lesson of the lord is that Jiang Qin will definitely read more military books in the future." ”
Han Xuan looked at Lu Meng again, and Lu Meng shook his head and said, "Yes, Lu Meng has been taught." I was determined to study hard in my spare time. ”
After Han Xuan pacified Danyang, he ordered someone to bring Fei Lan and Dai Yuan up, and in front of Han Meng, Han Xuan asked: "Have you two ever connived at your subordinates to rob the people and rob the people's daughters?" ”
Fei Lan knelt on the ground and replied, "General, the two of us are not strict in disciplining our subordinates, and we know that we are guilty. But the two of us have no merit and hard work in guarding Danyang, and I hope the general will deal with it leniently. ”
Dai Yuan also glanced at Han Meng, his eyes were full of pleading, but Han Meng didn't speak for them.
Han Xuan walked up to the concubine and sneered: "What a 'hard work without merit', you are such an official who harms the people, I will kill as much as I want!" Come on, drag it out and behead it! ”
At this time, a strong man beside Han Meng stepped forward and knelt on the ground and begged: "The general spares his life, although the two of you and Dai Yuan do not know the general situation, it will damage the reputation of the general." But the evildoers are the rebels under their command, and they should be beheaded. Now that the world of great controversy is the time to employ people, Concubine Reading Dai Yuan is a martial artist and a writer, and General Han Meng is safe when he guards Danyang, which shows his ability. The general must not behead these two people, with the heart of the generals! ”
Han Xuan looked at the unattractive man in front of him and asked Han Meng, "Who is this?" ”
Han Meng replied: "This person is the captain of my personal guard, Bian Hong. ”
Han Xuan said that he had never heard of this person, and Han Xuan remembered what Jia Hua and Song Qian said before, and the two had a grudge against Han Meng's wife Xu. Han Xuan's murderous intent gradually receded, and he felt that leaving Concubine Lan and Dai Yuan could check and balance Han Meng, so he was not ready to kill them.
Han Xuan said: "Where is the army? Pass on my order and remove Han Mengbian from his post as general. dragged Fei Lan and Dai Yuan out and beat them with fifty military sticks each, and removed the two of them from their positions as the governor of Danyang and the county governor. All the rebels who robbed the people were arrested and beheaded in the East Market. At the same time, warn the whole army that those who dare to harm the people will not be spared! ”
Fei Lan and Dai Yuan each received fifty military sticks and went back to recuperate from their injuries, Bian Hong came to visit and said: "The two of you are not lightly injured, and now Han Meng is punished by Han Xuan, and he will inevitably blame the two." You should be careful. ”
Dai Yuan said to Bian Hong: "Thank you brother for saving me today, otherwise the two of us will be lost." ”
Fei Lan said: "Han Meng, this person has a small belly and chicken intestines, and now he has been dismissed from his position as a general, and he will definitely blame the two of us." I'd better strike first, Bian Hong, you are Han Meng's confidant, are you willing to help me? ”
"In this way, in this way, in this way......" The three of them discussed, and when the time came, they would see the opportunity to act and kill Han Meng.
After Han Xuan returned to Changsha, he said in his heart that Danyang and Wujun were not so peaceful, and it seemed that the matter of moving the family there would be put aside first. Han Xuan asked the strategists: "Today's expedition to Huangzu failed due to the Danyang rebellion. Returning empty-handed has never been my style, so what advice do you have that I can benefit from? ”
Chen Qun said: "It's better to go to the imperial court, and Lord Chen will discuss Huang Zu's merits." First, to enhance the prestige of the lord, and secondly, to make Cao Cao dare not underestimate the lord, so that Cao Cao did not dare to invade Guangling. ”
Han Xuan nodded and said: "The long article is reasonable, but this article is really not my strength, who can write it for me?" ”
Zhang Zhao said with a smile: "The long essay is quick to think, good at writing splendid articles, and Zhao Bao holds the long essay as the ghostwriter for the main public." ”
Chen Qun said modestly: "I have lived in the north since I was a child, and I have little contact with the literati and scholars in the world, and I have never seen the world. It's just that there are not many people here who can write articles, so my reputation in this audience is not that my talent is really so high, but that Zibu has a reputation. Compared with you and Zhang Zigang, the gap between me and you is too big, just like a small witch meets a big witch, and I can't perform witchcraft. ”
Han Xuan said with a smile: "Changwen doesn't have to be humble, since you don't want to ghostwrite for me, I will let Zhang Hong do it." ”
Zhang Hong made a statement for Han Xuan, and after Han Xuan stamped the letter, he ordered someone to send it to Xudu. The text said: The minister begged Huang Zu and went to Shaxian County, the ancestral place on July 8. Liu Biao sent generals to help the ancestors and drove the ministers. On the 11th, the minister led his troops to lead Jiangxia Taishou Xing Jianwei Zhonglang General Gan Ning, led Lujiang Taishou Taishou Taishou Xing to capture Zhonglang General Tai Shici, Xingfeng Captain Lu Su, Xingxian Dengxiao Captain Han Dang, Xingwu Feng Captain Zhou Tai and others advanced at the same time. The minister's body straddles the horse oak Chen, and his hands beat the drum to fight together. The officials are excited, enthusiastic a hundred times, their hearts are full of fruit, and they compete for their lives. Crossing the heavy trench, fast as flying. The fire is put on the wind, the soldiers are under the smoke, the bow and crossbow are concurrent, the arrows are rained, and when the sun is rising, the ancestors are festering. The blade is cut off, the fire is burned, there is no life before, but the ancestors burst away. Seven men and women were given their wives, more than 20,000 people from Zihu and Han Xi were killed, more than 10,000 people drowned, more than 6,000 boats, and a mountain of property. Although the surface is not a bird, the ancestor is cunning, for the heart of the cousin, out of the minions, the surface of the owl, with the breath of the ancestors, and the ancestral family members, sweeping the floor, the table is lonely, and the ghost is a walking corpse. Cheng is the holy pilgrimage to the gods and martial arts, and the ministers are guilty of revenge, and they are diligent. ”
After reading the expression, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, seemed to have arrived on the battlefield of Jiangxia in person, and couldn't help but feel that his blood was full of blood. Liu Xie took down the text and showed it to Cao Cao, and Liu Xie sighed: "The right general Han Xuan pacified Jiangdong and attacked Huang Zu, and he made great contributions. I deserve a great reward...... What do you think? ”
Cao Cao glanced at Liu Xie and said to the civil and military officials: "The right general Han Xuan has been awarded the title of 'Marquis of Chu', and the official title cannot be rewarded again. The minister thought that he could reward dozens of famous horses and hundreds of beauties to the right general, who was in the prime of life, only had a wife and a son, and had no concubines. His Majesty gave him beautiful women and made him have more heirs, which showed His Majesty's heavenly grace. ”
"Okay, Liu Yisikong said." Liu Xie ordered people to immediately draft an edict and issue an edict.
Han Xuan received the edict and sighed: "Cao Cao is really already deeply jealous of me, I still want to avoid his edge first, and then deal with him after cleaning up Huang Zu!" ”
Han Xuan received the order to thank him, so that people could provide for these beauties well, and Qiu did not commit any crimes. Zhang Zhao advised: "What the Son of Heaven said is not biased, there are not many heirs of the lord and son, but the beauties given by His Majesty can be accepted, and more branches and leaves will be scattered." A hundred years after the lord, there are also people who can choose to inherit the great cause. ”
Han Xuan said disdainfully: "This is my family matter, why do you need to say more?" I have a deep relationship with Qiao'er and my wife, and I will have more children, so there is no need to say anything about this! ”
A few days later, Zhang Zhao joined forces with Du Xian, Gu Yong and others to persuade Han Xuan, and Han Xuan was really angry this time. He knew that Zhang Zhao was for his own good, the average life expectancy in ancient times was not long, and the father and son inherited it, and he wanted an heir with both ability and political integrity to inherit his career, so he had to have more sons.
But Han Xuan was very tired of opening a harem or something, he felt that it was enough for him to have a wife for Huang Wudie, he had been fighting outside all the year round, and he had too little time to accompany them, and Han Xuan felt that he owed them too much. If Han Xuan is allowed to take a concubine, he can't take care of it himself, it is irresponsible to them.
