Chapter 35: Four Joys in One Day

After Pu Yuan thanked him and left, Fa Zheng said to Liu Bei: "Pu Yuan's Si Jin Jian belongs to the Shaofu Ya (Ya), and the Shaofu is also managed by Kong Ming, so don't forget to reward Kong Ming." ”

The Shaofu in Fa Zheng's mouth belongs to one of the Jiuqing of the Han Dynasty, and is in charge of the income of mountains and Haidi Ze and the royal handicraft manufacturing. At present, the Shaofu order is held by Wang Mou, a famous scholar in Shuzhong.

But Liu Bei uses his name more than anyone else. Wang Mou is nominally Pu Yuan's superior, but in fact the two have nothing to do with each other, and this is still a strategy set by Fa Zheng in the year.

In the nineteenth year of Jian'an (214 AD), Liu Bei led his army to surround CD, and Xu Jing, a famous man, tried to surrender across the city, but the matter was leaked and unsuccessful. Liu Zhang did not execute Xu Jing because Yizhou was about to fall. After Liu Zhang surrendered, Liu Bei looked down on Xu Jing because of his betrayal of the master, and did not appoint him.

Fa Zheng advised at the time: "There are people in the world who have gained false reputation but have no reality, and Xu Jing is also." However, now the lord has created a great cause, and the people of the world can not say, the floating name of Jing, sowing all over the world, if it is not rude, the people of the world think that the lord is a cheap and virtuous person. It is advisable to be respectful, to dazzle far and near, and to recall the treatment of Guo Kui by King Yan in the past. ”

It means that there are people in the world who have won fame but have no real talent, like Xu Jing. However, today, the lord has started to create a great cause, and it is impossible for the people of the world to explain it door to door, and Xu Jing's false name has spread all over the world, if he can't be treated politely, the people of the world will say that the lord is despising the virtuous. Therefore, Xu Jing should be treated with respect, so as to show that you are following the ancient Yan Zhao King's practice of treating Guo Kui favorably.

Liu Bei listened to the advice, so he used and treated Xu Jing well. He called the queen of Hanzhong, and immediately appointed Xu Jing as the prince of Hanzhong.

Today, the positions of the three princes and nine secretaries in the DPRK are mostly held by Shu celebrities who are Liu Zhang's former ministers. This move is quite lawful, and the hearts of the people in Shu are determined for a while. However, these people have official names, most of them are not in charge, and all the things under their rule are managed by Zhuge Liang, the official of the Great Sima Mansion.

And Pu Yuan's knife making was made by Liu Bei, and Zhuge Liang was responsible for it.

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Kong Ming not only made the lone foot have enough food and clothing, but also made the lone foot soldier foot armor, and the credit is so great, the lone really doesn't know what to reward." ”

Everyone knows that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang are close, but this sentence is just a joke. Seeing that the lord was in a good mood, everyone was also deeply affected, and laughed, and the atmosphere in the tent was very good for a while.

Zhuge Liang said: "Liang is only two meals a day, the couch is no more than three feet, and rewarding Weichen is just a trivial matter." But for now, there is still a joy. Shangshu Ling knows a lot about this matter, so please tell it on your behalf! ”

"Oh?" Liu Beiqi said: "What else is there to enjoy? Isn't that three joys a day? Filial piety comes quickly. ”

Fa Zheng glanced at Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang also smiled.

He knew that what Zhuge Liang said was what General Zuo Ma Chaoshang said this morning.

He and Zhuge Liang are in the same center of the imperial court, so they can both know ordinary official documents at the same time. It didn't hurt for Zhuge Liang to say this, but Zhuge Liang took advantage of Liu Bei's good mood to provoke the conversation, and asked himself to tell it on his behalf. Fa Zheng knew that this was because he had just asked for credit for Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang reciprocated the favor.

I couldn't help but praise in my heart: "This Kong Ming is a person who knows and is interested." ”

However, now that the lord asked, Fa Zheng immediately reined in his thoughts and replied: "This morning, Shangshutai received the above table from General Zuo Ma Chao, which said that he collected 3,000 from his younger brother Ma Dai from the Wudu Wolf and Qiang Division, and there were 1,000 elite horsemen, and there were no cattle and horses. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he laughed heartily: "The Hanzhong War is over, the population is scarce, and at this time, it is no less than the merit of expanding the land to be able to get the Qiang people to work!" ”

The young and strong people in Hanzhong were captured by Cao Cao, and Shu Han faced the dilemma of no one available.

Ma Dai's collection of 3,000 Qiang people this time is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow, which is extremely beneficial to stabilizing the situation in the frontier.

In addition, there is no place to produce horses in Shu, and secondly, it costs a lot to train cavalry, so the cavalry in Shu Han is only 10,000. At present, nearly a thousand good riders have suddenly been obtained, and the harvest is not abundant.

For the king of a country, this is naturally an extremely exciting piece of good news.

Liu Bei was overjoyed, and was waiting to be rewarded, when he suddenly remembered something, so he asked again: "It is naturally excellent to be able to gather three thousand people this time, but I don't know how to damage myself?" ”

"It doesn't cost a single soldier!"

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "But the Qiang people came to vote on their own?" ”

Fa Zheng replied: "If you don't vote on your own, there are quite a few twists and turns. Before the ministers speak, they should congratulate the lord on the fourth joy of the day. ”

Liu Bei was confused, frowned and asked, "Why is there a fourth joy?" Filial piety and resignation want to sell Guanzi. Please come back quickly. ”

Fa Zheng waved the corner of his clothes, and said: "General Zuo said in the table that under the rule of the puppet dynasty, the Yongzhou soldiers Cao engaged in Jiang Wei's family and surrendered!" Now that he has entered Shu from Yangping, the matter of subduing the Qiang people is the result of this person's plan. ”

He immediately told Ma Chao the content of the table.

Ma Chao's content of this table is very detailed, from Jiang Wei in distress to ask for help, to the duel before the battle, and then to Ma Daina's plan to recruit the Qiang people, all of them are recorded one by one, there is no omission, and the end of the table also writes: "Jiang Wei Yunwen Yunwu, the material can be of great use, and it is a great fortune for the country." Therefore, the minister sent Ma Dai to escort him all the way to show his solemnity. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was so excited that he paced left and right, and said, "Okay!" Good! Good! Well done Meng Qi! Well done! This is really four joys a day! After being excited for a long time, he suddenly raised his head to face Fa Zheng and asked, "This righteous man named Jiang Wei, can you know the details of filial piety?" ”

Ma Chao's resume is attached to the back of the watch, and Fa Zheng has already memorized it in his chest, and then replied: "General Zuo's table says that this Jiang Wei is not a weak crown at a young age, and his ancestors are all Hanchen, and he lives in Tianshui. Good Zheng learned, exquisite marksmanship, called Youlin, and was well-known in the Tianshui area. Originally Zhonglang of Tianshui County, a month ago, because of his meritorious service in suppressing the rebellion of the Qiang people, he was engaged in the puppet Yongzhou Assassin Shi as a soldier. Unexpectedly, this person did not go to Chang'an to take up his post, but returned to my Han with his family. ”

Zhuge Liang took a step forward, hugged his fists and said: "The lord has just entered the king of Hanzhong, and there are sages and people with lofty ideals who have come to vote, it can be seen that people are thinking about Han, God bless my lord!" Congratulations to the Lord! Congratulations to the Great Han! Congratulations to the community! With that, he slammed it to the ground.

Everyone in the tent said in unison: "Congratulations to the Lord!" Congratulations to the Great Han! Congratulations to the community! ”

Liu Bei was full of spring breeze, helped everyone up one by one, and then lifted the corner of his robe and said, "Swing and go back to the palace!" He couldn't wait to see it for himself.

Liu Bei and Fa Zheng Junchen answered, but Zhang Bao didn't listen to anything else, only heard Fa Zheng say that Jiang Wei had "exquisite marksmanship", and he was quite unconvinced.

He followed Liu Bei all the way, and when he saw Liu Bei so happy, he said in his heart: "This kid named Jiang Wei, at a young age, dares to be called Youlin, if he is not a person who sells his reputation and reputation, or there is no one in Yongzhou!" Hmph, it's better not to fall into my hands!"

He held the snake spear tightly and walked upside down, not feeling a little itchy in his hands.
