It turned out that Wang Fen was dissatisfied with the imperial court's dismissal of Huangfu Song's official position and military power, and there was a secret intention to abolish the establishment in his heart, and it happened that one day he feasted and drank guests, and among the people invited were Nanyang Xu You, Peiguo Zhou Jing, and Chen Yi, the son of the late Taiwei Chen Fan. Wang Fen heard that, so he had the heart to abolish the establishment, only hated that Jizhou and Luoyang were thousands of miles apart, and he was powerless, so Xu Yu proposed that Jizhou could experience the war, and the northern black mountain thieves were raging, and because Liu Hong was from Hejian, he said in the table that the old house in Hejian was in disrepair, and lured Liu Hong to come to Jizhou.

Wang Fen was naturally overjoyed, so he tried to send letters to heroes from all over the country, asking them to raise a big event, Xu You naturally also wrote a letter to Cao Cao to ask Cao Cao to raise things together, Xu You expected that Huangfu Song was dismissed, and Cao Cao's mentor, and he himself was friends with Cao Cao, Cao Cao had no reason not to agree to this matter, but who knew that Cao Cao really did not agree, not only did not agree, but also directly presented Xu You's secret to Liu Hong, and therefore there was this drama of attacking the west.

In other words, Liu Hong looks like he came to Gao Yi for a private visit, but in fact, he took refuge, because Liu Hong knew that Wang Fen alone could not make such a big determination, and behind Wang Fen, there was a bigger mastermind.

"Gao Taishou, if the mastermind behind this Wang Fen is your mentor Huangfu Song, will you help me or your mentor?"

On the streets of Wancheng, Liu Hong, who was dressed in a scribe's clothes, asked Gao Yi beside him with a smile.

Gao Yi knew that accompanying the king was like accompanying the tiger, and every word he said must be cautious, he did not think twice: "Heaven, earth, jun, pro, teacher, before the teacher, I naturally have to put loyalty first, but Gao Yi also dares to guarantee with his own life that the teacher will not be such a person!" ”

"Oh?" Liu Hong was very impressed by Gao Yi's quick reaction, but he was more interested in the second half of the sentence, "Why are you so sure?" ”

Gao Yi didn't want to talk about the good people and good deeds of Huangfu Song again, so he only said quietly: "You should know better than me!" ”

Liu Hong was a little stunned, and he also regretted asking Gao Yi such a question, one is the king, the other is the teacher, and it is difficult to choose if he chooses.

"I heard that during the days between you and Huangfu Song, there are often contradictions, but is there such a thing?"

Gao Yi smiled: "I don't know where you heard these things, they are all nothing, my teacher and I are both working for the imperial court and are dedicated to the public, but sometimes the methods are different, although outsiders seem to be arguing with red faces, in fact, what we are talking about is a heart-wrenching word!" ”

"But why did I hear that he was so proud of his own army that he robbed the people's property in order to raise enough military rations?" Liu Hong frowned slightly, looking at the blood-stained remnant sun in the west, he felt very dazzling.

Gao Yi took two steps forward and also looked at the remnant sun, but he saw more blue skies and white clouds, sighed at the beauty of nature, and looked at it for a long time before he suddenly said: "These words, if Gao Yi didn't guess wrong, you should have heard them from the Ten Standing Attendants, right?" ”

Liu Hong nodded: "As the old saying goes, if you listen to it well, if you listen to it, you will be clear, and if you listen to it, you will be dark, I can't help but listen, and I can't just listen to good words, not bad words!" ”

Gao Yi turned around, his eyes surging with sincerity: "But Your Majesty has ever thought that people have feelings and are also purposeful, and in the same way, as long as you change the word, the meaning may change greatly!" ”

Liu Hong shook his head in disbelief: "Where can there be such a thing?" Right is right, wrong is wrong, why not admit it? ”

Gao Yi was speechless in his heart for a while, didn't he say that those who educated the emperor were very powerful characters? How do you feel that Liu Hong is the kind of guy who is sometimes smart and sometimes stupid?

"Maybe your words are right, but not necessarily, there are true and false words, only by comparing and distinguishing, can you have your own judgment, such as what you said about Wang Fen, if it wasn't for Lord Cao Cao's secret letter, how did you know that Wang Fen was going to rebel? On the other hand, if Cao Cao has a personal vendetta with Wang Fen, maybe Wang Fen is very normal to recruit troops to crusade against the Black Mountain thieves, but Lord Cao Cao framed him as a rebellion for his own benefit, and to give another example, if I Gao Yi is also the same as Wang Fen, because the emperor was dismissed and has a grudge against the court, these people under my command are also preparing to rebel, and the three million money I asked for from the court is also for the military funds to raise troops, so you just came quietly, didn't you fall into my trap? ”

Liu Hong was taken aback, this Gao Yi really dared to say anything, he couldn't help laughing: "If I don't even have this vision, I will rest assured that I will allocate money to you?" ”

Gao Yi continued to sneer in his heart: I really misunderstood my Gao Yi, I don't know what I Gao Yi will do in the future.

While talking, the two of them had already walked out of Wancheng, arrived at a field, and happened to bump into Fu Yu commanding a group of soldiers to pull out the mature rice that had been blistered, and brandishing a very heavy farm tool to turn the soil over again, doing it in full swing, but the efficiency was very low, Gao Yi looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help but step forward and said: "This is too slow, it has already passed the season of sowing in the next season, if you rub it like this again, you can't plant wheat even in November, why don't you go find some ploughing oxen to plow the land?" ”

Frustrated and wry: "I don't know, this flood, hundreds of thousands of people outside the city have no fields to plant, no food to eat, no place to live, thousands of ploughing cattle are also drowned alive, and now there is a plague rampant phenomenon, many people who have been hastily settled back, many people have died, and the current Wancheng can be described as a mess!" ”

Liu Hong was taken aback when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at Gao Yi and said, "It's just a big flood, how can so many changes happen?" ”

Gao Yi said: "You don't know, natural disasters are connected, not people can predict, since the imperial court appointed me to be this Nanyang Taishou, in fact, it is also a test for me, it seems that the military position of General Huben Zhonglang and the official position of Nanyang Taishou, plus the title of the marquis, seems to be very favored, but once I can't handle this mess well, don't wait for the imperial court to issue an edict, and don't wait for the local magnates to do it, the people can drive me down, this stake, you should know better than me!" ”

Liu Hong was stunned, Gao Yi compared himself to him at this time, and compared the entire Nanyang to the world! Thinking about the Yellow Turban Rebellion that had just been pacified, although it seemed that the world was peaceful again, and even the Ten Standing Servants respected himself as the second Guangwu Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and this was also the reason for changing the name of the year from Guanghe to Zhongping, but Liu Hong knew very well that now the power of the imperial court had been greatly weakened, although he had a headache when he saw those twists and turns, and he didn't want to see them, but Liu Hong knew that if he didn't look at it, it didn't mean that he didn't exist. Yan Baihu, a Shanyue man from Wu County, proclaimed himself the king of Eastern Wu De, established a puppet regime in the imperial court, Yuyang Taishou Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju united Karasuma to make a rebellion, Yizhou Ma Xiang and Zhao Yuan killed and assassinated Shi Yingjian to make a rebellion, Liangzhou Bianzhang and Han Sui killed and assassinated Shi Geng, and supported more than 100,000 people, all of which made the world shake.

But for the same thing, what did Gao Yi do, and what did he, the emperor, do? Liu Hong couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Gao Yi didn't care what Liu Hong was thinking, what he was thinking about now was how to quickly restore all the development of Wancheng to normal, Wancheng is the seat of Nanyang County, if it goes on like this, I don't know what the consequences will be.

After thinking about it for a while, Gao Yi said to him: "Mr. Trouble will do a few things for me, first, buy enough ploughing cattle from nearby states and counties as soon as possible, second, hire some skilled craftsmen and let them design some more practical farm tools, third, send some money and goods to the people, quickly isolate the people infected with the plague from livestock, and raise some money to help the people build new houses, and fourth, and most importantly, build a recruitment hall to solicit talents who are good at internal affairs in the whole county!" ”

When these three things were said, everyone present was shocked, Liu Hong suddenly turned around from his contemplation, Gao Yi What is this going to do? The first two things can obviously be solved with money, but the third thing, the selection of talents by the imperial court and the state and county has always been through the way of promoting filial piety and promoting Maocai, and what is the new thing that Gao Yi said about this recruitment hall?

The soldiers who were working also stopped, the three things Gao Yi said, if implemented, can undoubtedly greatly reduce their load, they are also human beings, and they will be tired, not to mention the current situation of hunger and fullness, and it is even more powerless to do these farm work.

Fu Zhu frowned and said: "Although the intention of the envoy is good, but this will cost a lot of money, and now there is no money in the treasury, how to implement the four things that the envoy said?" ”

Gao Yi said without thinking: "Who said there is no money to make?" Don't we have three million dollars right now? ”
