Chapter 18: The Great Feast (II)

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The situation was too critical for words to describe...... The right Beiping soldier Cao Zuo Cheng Pu took the lady of the Ming Mansion to escape from danger, and then turned back to block the pursuing soldiers, and rode three horses with his bare hands in front of the ten thousand army, shocking the enemy soldiers, and the situation was peaceful...... Its courage is amazing, and the wind of the tiger minister at that time is also covered, please ask the prince to learn and be promoted. ”

"A guest in my family, the former Lu Longsai Lingzhi Commander Han Dang, shot and killed the enemy chief Ke Zitan in battle, and his merit was the first, and the minister implored the Ming Mansion to show his righteousness and bravery!"

"My younger brother Sun Fan, the eunuch of the two thousand stones, did not avoid the sword and arrow, and fought three hundred Hu soldiers to counterattack the Xianbei Chinese army, blocking its way, so that the army calmly attacked together, and the merit was high and hard, and the Ming Mansion was allowed to do it."

"Nanyang Lou Gui, a famous family, good at tricks, this time he sneaked in thanks to his tricks, and killed one of the Xianbei soldiers in battle, and the princess of the mansion escaped from danger, which can be called a great achievement, please Fang Bo Mingjian."

"There is still the Xianbei Mohu Department in Liaoxi, who has lived in the Han realm for a long time, and admires the sinicization.

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Xun stood upright on the stage, but bowed his head slightly, maintained a saluting posture, and waited for the three real powerful people on the stage to speak.

"I already know everything Wen Qi said." Gongsun Xun's father-in-law, Zhao Bao, the current Taishou of Liaoxi, replied a little perfunctorily. "I will naturally allocate the credit of these people, so you can step down."

"Hey!" On the side, Wang Taishou of Beiping County suddenly interjected at this time. "How could Zhao Gong treat the heroes so harshly? When I led the army to Lulongsai, as soon as I heard that Gongsun Wenqi, who had broken through the camp with 30 cavalry in the past, only led four people to sneak out of Lulongsai this time, I knew that he was going to make a special honor like last time! After the war, I inquired, and sure enough...... There were only five people, infiltrated the army, and one person escaped with Zhao Gongzun's mother; One person took the Duchess of Zhao out; One person bears Zhao Gong's beloved daughter and escapes; One man shoots the enemy chieftain in battle; One person is in battle to disrupt the enemy's Chinese army...... In my opinion, the credit of these five people is probably the credit of the top five in this war! ”

Wang Taishou's sudden interjection seemed to be a little unexpected for Zhao Bao, so he didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he could only be stunned on the spot.

But this is not over, in the eyes of everyone, the right Beiping County Wang Taishou, who came to play soy sauce and rubbed the credit purely because of the geographical location, actually stood up again as he spoke, and came straight to Gongsun Xun with his wine glass:

"And besides, Wen Qi, you have so much respect for the merits of others, but why don't you mention your own deeds? Aren't you the one who led the way in infiltrating the enemy this time? Shouldn't the heroes be leaderless, and shouldn't they be credited to you for three points? As a county official, he heard that his lord was in a dilemma of loyalty and filial piety, and he did not hesitate to infiltrate the enemy camp with his life, but not only saved the lord's family, but also disrupted the deployment of the thieves before the battle and killed the leader of the thieves...... Ladies and gentlemen, what is this called? In my opinion, this is called a great husband's act of loyalty, righteousness, wisdom and bravery! Come, Wen Qi drink this cup full! ”

Wang Taishou was at 2,000 stones, but he praised a young boy from another county, and took the initiative to serve wine to the other party, which was really a supreme honor.

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Xun took the wine with both hands, but he was not in a hurry to drink it, but raised his head and replied: "The king of the palace is the king of other countries and the ministers of other countries, and he is really loved." It's just that I've heard that a gentleman is not only courteous but also virtuous...... I also hope that the king of the palace will be fulfilled! ”

Wang Taishou couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "I know...... Cheng Pu. ”

Hearing this, Cheng Pu hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.

"My county soldier Cao Rin has recently been sick, and I have relieved him of his duties in accordance with the will of the people, and let him go home to recuperate, you have made such a special achievement, just in time to make up for it!"

Cheng Pu's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he was finally more happy, so he immediately leaned over to thank his own prince for his promotion, and turned around and thanked Gongsun Xun for his recommendation.

In other words, more than one person has tested Cheng Pu's mind for Gongsun Xun these days, and Cheng Pu himself is also moved...... He really thinks that this Gongsun Master is a person who dares to do things and can do things, and his background is not bad. However, no matter how you look at this world, it is still in order, as a young county official who has family concerns and a good future, it is impossible for him to learn how Han Dang, a careless person, is just based on the four words of like-mindedness...... To put it bluntly, Gongsun Xun's future is close at hand, but at this time, he is still only a two-hundred-stone official.

Of course, this arrangement is sufficient. Because after Gongsun Xun's recommendation, everyone knew that Cheng Pu, who was the uncle of Gongsun Xun's clan before, was afraid that he would be branded by Gongsun Xun for the rest of his life.

Think about it, what else do you want to do if you have been recommended by other uncles and nephews?

From now on, if the world is peaceful, whoever of the Gongsun clan dies, he Cheng Pu will abandon his official position and go to mourn. And if there is really such a season when the world is changing, the so-called protΓ©gΓ© and former officials come to vote, for the Gongsun family, it is about people like Cheng Pu.

Seeing that Cheng Pu had a result, Gongsun Xun hurriedly helped the other party up, and then raised his glass and drank a full drink, and a burst of cheers instantly sounded on the high platform.

On the other side, Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou, listened to the cheers of the hall on this high platform, and looked at Wang Taishou and Zhao Taishou pretending to be raised, and finally sighed in his heart, and then suddenly stood up.

Saying...... Don't take the world for fools.

Whether it is Gongsun Xun's infiltration into the enemy camp, or Mrs. Zhao's marriage on the street, it is all spread by everyone, and it is known all over the city, and it may not be long before the whole world knows...... So, is it that Wang Taishou doesn't know the foundation of this person, or does Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou, not know the details of this person? In fact, this contrived is nothing more than being a father-in-law to avoid suspicion, and it is not good to personally play to praise his son-in-law, and Wang Taishou, as a person who comes to rub credit, has to ask others, so he will tacitly come on the field to be this trust.

As for who to entrust it to? Who else can there be besides Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou?

It must be known that the Han Dynasty takes the inspection system as the right way for eunuchs, and others are fine, and Gongsun Xun obviously wants to take the broad road. However, there is only one thing in Liaoxi a year like filial piety, and Zhao Taishou has just taken up his post, but also wants to avoid suspicion...... Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Yue can give a filial piety with a big stroke of the pen, so what does Gongsun Xun say about his son-in-law? If you really cite filial piety, maybe you will be laughed at.

So what should we do, can there be any broad road for our grandson to become a serious official as soon as possible?

The answer is to find the history of state assassination! Recommending talents to the imperial court is originally the basic duty of the assassin history, in addition to the filial piety in the county, the state also has to raise Maocai once a year! And because it is recommended by the state, and most of the people who are recommended are officials who have already made up their careers, so compared with filial piety, the number of Maocai is less, the importance is higher, and the future is better!

So back to the present, after this singing and fighting, Liu Yu and Liu Bo'an, who sat on the top of the Youzhou Thorn History...... People's grandfather has been Guangluxun, his father has been the East China Sea Minister, and he is also a county official and filial piety along the way, how can he not know the careful thoughts of these two Taishou?

Of course, if you know, you know, Xu or not, you Liu Tingshi always have to give sentence eight?

So, as soon as he thought of this, this Liu Yu simply got up and came to Gongsun Xun.

"Uncle Fang!" Gongsun Xun knew that the real drama meat had arrived, so he immediately bowed and saluted.

"Don't be polite." Liu Yu looked the other party up and down. "I have heard the name of your Gongsun Zhongkun in Beijing, and I know that you are the common beloved disciples of Wenhuangong and Zigangong, and even entrust such big things as the supervision of "Mao Poems" and "Han Poems" in the carved stone scriptures to your brothers...... It's just a mistake, but it's a pity that I didn't see it. ”

"Seems to be the case." Gongsun Xun instantly pretended to be confused, after all, at this time, more things are better than less things. "My brother Sun Yue is still my brother Sun Zhan...... I don't remember clearly, it seems that I once visited Uncle Fang, but it happened that Uncle Fang was not in the house, it was a pity! ”

"I see." Liu Yu's expression relaxed slightly, and then smiled with relief. "Don't talk about this, you are from a famous family in western Liaoning, and your family is loyal and good; He also learned from Wen Huan Gong and Zi Gan Gong, and learned the classics; Now, as soon as he returned to the township, he heard that the county guard's family was in misfortune, and he went to rescue him regardless of life and death, which can be called loyal and brave; Not to mention that in the end, as Wang Taishou said before, he made so many meritorious achievements...... I was appointed by the imperial court to inspect the eleven counties of Youzhou, and I already have the responsibility of recommending talents, and when I return to the imperial court this summer, if I can't recommend a talent like you to the center, wouldn't it be a corpse vegetarian meal?! ”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Taishou next to him laughed and praised again and again, and the officers and county officials of Liaoxi County on the high platform were also happy...... They are really happy, this son-in-law who is too guarded to take the road of the state, and does not rob everyone's credit and position, can they not be happy?

However, Gongsun Xun's face was as usual, but he bowed down and thanked him according to the courtesy, as if he had a moral demeanor!

Of course, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart...... After years of hard work and forgetting to die, he finally got the two two 2,000 stones to join forces to make a show for himself today, but no matter what, his Gongsun Xun is finally coming out!

In other words, if you are an official, it is easy to get ahead if you have a backer behind you! If you don't accept it, you can't do it!

The feast continued, and Lou Gui and Han Dang refused to resign, Gongsun Fan was made up as a county official, and then Wuhuan Shan Yu Qiu Liju's nephew was rejected for his uncle's seal, and Mohu was rewarded with a large amount of goods...... But for Gongsun Xun, they are all trivial matters that are not worth mentioning.

In this way, two days later, the army was disbanded and returned to the station, Wang Taishou also proudly took Cheng Pu back to the right Beiping County to govern the earth, and then Liu Yu went to Liaodong to inspect and inspect, Gongsun Xun, Gongsun Fan and others also directly followed Zhao Bao to Yangle City, which had been absent for a long time!

However, at this moment, the expected angel finally came belatedly, and it was several waves in a row, and it was going back and forth!

The first wave is consolation.

As I said before, the mother of these two thousand stone county guards was captured by the enemy in the territory, which is really a vicious incident that has not been seen since the founding of the Han Dynasty, and the matter will inevitably cause the world to shake.

Therefore, after the news reached the capital, the imperial court, which did not know the subsequent development of the matter, sent envoys almost instantly, and quickly came to comfort and appease Zhao Bao, and urgently issued a sternly worded order to Liu Yu and the surrounding counties of western Liaoning, asking them to quickly rescue the hostages and defeat the invading enemy.

Of course, when this wave of envoys rushed to Youzhou, new news came out, but it was just that they continued to pinch their noses and come to Liaoxi to 'console' because they had to be hindered by the system.

And after a few days apart, as new news was fed back to the imperial court, this second wave of envoys soon arrived, and the theme was reward.

No way...... The dialogue between Mrs. Zhao and her son Zhao Bao is too much in line with the main theme and values of the Han Dynasty, and it is also too shocking, and the final happy ending and the military victory of the great victory also made the court excited.

So, when the Son of Heaven and the Three Princes sent envoys together, all kinds of commendations were smashed over without money...... I just don't know if Zhao Changshi, the 'mother' of the son of heaven, has been involved.

Among them, Zhao Bao made such a great contribution in the name of loyalty, courage and filial piety, and it was indeed a direct marquis, called the Marquis of Hunan, which is an ancient place name in Qinghe County, where Zhao Bao is now located, which is also reasonable.

Then Mrs. Zhao was also publicly commended by the imperial court for her loyalty and integrity, giving food and cloth, and at the same time, in her home Qinghe, presided over by the magistrate, a special lintel building was built...... This is probably the origin of the arch of chastity later.

However, while these commendations are exciting, they are all taken for granted, even expected. And Gongsun Xun never expected that he would actually receive a commendation and recommendation directly from the imperial court.

"Knowing the art of war bravely?" Gongsun Xun was dumbfounded. "And my teacher became a lieutenant?"

"Yes!" This is the recruitment of the Taiwei Mansion, so the messenger who came to deliver the letter was not a eunuch, but a serious official of the DPRK and the Central People's Government, and the one in front of him was a subordinate official directly under the Taiwei Mansion, so he would naturally tell him calmly. "Brother Gongsun Xian is not in Luozhong, so naturally I don't know what happened......"

"Please also teach me." Gongsun Xun hurriedly asked.

"Just last month, the barbarians of Yizhou County collectively rebelled and detained Taishou, and then, such terrifying news came from Liaoxi! Add two by two, Yu Yuan Taiwei Chen Tan Chen Gong was deposed by His Majesty, and then our Liu Gong officially ascended to the position of the third duke, as the imperial lieutenant! At this point, the messenger couldn't help but smile slightly. And here Liu Gong just took over the official seal, and the good things done by the virtuous brother over there were transmitted to the capital, and Liu Gongfu started the case, saying that he had long known that the virtuous brother would become a great weapon! On the second day, the imperial court discussed the pacification of the border troubles in all directions, and Liu Gong asked for another section of 'brave and brave knowledge of the art of war' as a captain, and explained the deeds of the virtuous brother on the spot...... When the Son of Heaven heard that the virtuous brother was our disciple of Liu Gong, he was immediately overjoyed, so the virtuous brother became the first person to open the brave and fierce military art department this time! ”

Gongsun Xun's expression was complicated, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

It's not that Liu Kuan remembered that he was a bad thing, nor did he say that the 'special brave and brave knowledge of the art of war' recruited by the three dukes was a crooked way - this is one of the serious ways of the Han Dynasty's inspection system, but that his previous preparations and actions on the high platform were not wasted, like a joke?

I also sighed before that as an official in this Han Dynasty, you have to have a backer to get ahead! However, at this time, it seems that I have to add another sentence, this backer has to be as big as possible!

"Virtuous brother!" Seeing that the other party was stunned, the subordinate of the Taiwei Mansion couldn't help but smile and urge. "Don't delay, the bus is calling, it's just outside, please follow me back to Beijing as soon as possible! After being reported by the Public Transport Department this time, the merits of being famous in the world as a virtuous brother, I'm afraid it's not going to be a straight up? ! ”

Gongsun Xun opened his mouth to speak, but he was speechless.

"In the past, Taizu was honored with a weak crown, and Liaoxi was too guarded by his wife. Or said: 'Jun is a well-known young man, and his future is open, but he is married to Taishou, and it is a pity to avoid suspicion and lose the way of filial piety in the county! Taizu was displeased: "My generation chooses a mate but looks at it with virtue, how can we talk about the gains and losses of the future?" 'Within a few days, Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou, passed through Liaoxi, saw Taizu, and said with great joy: "If you meet a beautiful jade, how can you abandon the wilderness?" 'The discussion in the county all said that Taizu would raise the state Maocai. However, soon, there was an envoy from Luozhong to, it was the three princes at the same time, with the chaos of the world, especially with the courage to know the art of war, and the bus went straight into Luozhong. The villagers replied to praise and said: 'The cone is in the bag, and its Ying is also out of his own, the grandson of Liaoxi, how can he worry about the future? β€”The Book of Old Swallows.
