Chapter 2 Luoyang Order

The trees outside the window have already brought a little greenery, and the spring is getting stronger, Ye Zhao is lying on the bed a little lazily, holding Xin'er's soft and delicate body, looking at the scenery outside the window.

It has been a while since he returned to Huaixian, and a few days ago, Cai Yong sent a private message, telling Ye Zhao that the edict of the imperial court would arrive soon, so that he could prepare to enter Luoyang.

Although he already had a guess in his heart, when the matter came to an end, Ye Zhao still felt a little emotional, he seemed to be very close to the profession of the county commander, from the earliest mayor of Ma Cheng to the Suiyang Order and then to the current Luoyang Order, originally he wanted to plan for the position of Nanyang Taishou, and even secretly dragged Yuan Shao to say something to himself in front of He Jin.

Although Nanyang is now abandoned, the heritage is still there, and it is broken and then established, and when it is governed by itself, the time for the world to divide is almost here.

Nanyang is a treasure land of feng shui, near Luoyang in the north, Jingxiang in the south, Shu in the west, and the Central Plains in the east.

It's a pity that the power competition between the DPRK and China finally pushed him to the position of Luoyang Ling, although the power is not small, but like Tingwei, this is a good place to offend people, especially when you want to make achievements, how long you can sit in this position, Ye Zhaozhen can't say.

However, the benefits of pacifying the Yellow Turban are not only this Luoyang Order, Ye Zhao's connections, after this year's time, are many times richer than before, and at the same time, his prestige is enough to gain a foothold in Shilin, just look at his return to his hometown this time, the new Hanoi Taishou personally greeted him, and those wang clans who regarded him as a junior in the past also came out to welcome him, and even the Wen County Sima family and other wang clans sent their eldest son Sima Lang to visit.

In this era, prestige is sometimes even more useful than official titles, even if Ye Zhao is now removed from his official position, the Ye family is enough to be called a prominent family in this Hanoi area.

However, Ye Zhao asked Uncle Liang to push the marriage, and the concubine already had Xin'er, but this main room could not be allowed out casually.

"Childe~" Xin'er looked up at Ye Zhao a little timidly, although it has been some time since she became Ye Zhao's concubine, but in this kind of frank and skin-to-skin situation, she still can't let go.

"What's wrong?" Ye Zhao lowered his head, looked at Xin'er's pretty face and smiled.

"It's not too early, Childe has to practice in the morning today......" Xin'er's soft voice, like a cat, is itching.

"Yes." Ye Zhao looked at the sky outside the window, nodded, lifted the quilt, and let Xin'er help him get dressed.

"You can rest a little longer." Looking at Xin'er, who quickly got into the quilt and covered her head like an ostrich, Ye Zhao smiled, turned around and stepped out.

"My lord." Not long after going out, I saw Qiu Chi waiting outside the door.

"How long have you been waiting?" Ye Zhao smiled and continued to move forward, and asked casually, he lives a very self-disciplined life, and the time he comes out every day is about the same.

"Just arrived." Qiu Chi said with a smile: "The envoy from the imperial court has arrived in Chenggao, and when we can arrive in Huai County today, will we send someone to greet you?" ”

"Do you know who's coming?" Ye Zhao asked with a smile.

Luoyang is reluctant to leave Huai County, and Cai Yong's letter arrived yesterday, and the imperial court's edict envoy will not be too long.

"Zuo Feng." Qiu Chi said with a smile, although Ye Zhao has not entered Luoyang, Ye Zhuang has used Ye Zhao's connections to set up a lot of caravans over the years, and as these caravans have been spread out by Ye Zhao, in terms of intelligence, Ye Zhao is still very well-informed, at least not too confidential information, can be found.

"Old friends." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "You don't have to work hard to mobilize the people, come to some real things, and give him a generous gift." ”

In the past, he could not shy away from it, but now his prestige has grown, and there are many eyes staring at him, although he does collude with eunuchs, but this reputation, he does not want to fall.

"It's ready." Qiu Chi said with a smile.

"Besides, have you prepared anything from Luoyang?" Ye Zhao asked.

"I have purchased a house, near the upper west gate, but it is a little biased, and the house above the three entrances in Luoyang is not easy to find, and it can be purchased without money." Qiu Chi said with some shame.

"That's enough." Ye Zhao does not have high requirements for where to live, but it must be spacious enough, Luoyang Ling is also a member with a rank of two thousand stones, he can enter the court to participate in politics, he is allowed to have two hundred private soldiers, plus family members, family members, and maidservants, the house is too small to accommodate so many people.

"Ding Li stayed to watch the house, and also assisted Uncle Liang in handling the housework, and ordered Fang Yue to bring a group of people over to take care of it first, don't be too ostentatious, today is edicted, it is about ten days to go to Luoyang, enough for Fang Yue to clean up the house first." Ye Zhao thought for a while.

Ding Li and Fang Yue are the two generals under him who can now lead the troops, the Ye family is now a big family, and there is still a lot of business to take care of, only Uncle Liang alone is no longer enough to control, and Ding Li, as a military general cultivated by Ye Zhao, his loyalty has been tested, leaving him behind, Ye Zhao can rest assured, and he can also have some knowledge of Ding Li, Ye Zhao still values this military general trained by himself.

Qiu Chi went to Zhang Luo to do things, Ye Zhao went to the martial arts arena, and practiced with Dian Wei and others who were struggling with their strength, and in the afternoon, Zuo Feng came to Yezhuang with a team of guards and handed over the edict to Ye Zhao.

"I haven't seen Zuo Gong for a year, but Zuo Gong is more beautiful than before, and I haven't congratulated Zuo Gong on his promotion." After the business was done, Ye Zhao welcomed Zuo Feng into the living room, and his own subordinates served pastries and wine, and the two sides were already acquaintances, and they didn't have so many politeness.

"But it's for Your Majesty, but this matter is still a blessing for you." Zuo Feng waved his hand and said with a smile, a few years ago, he was just a little yellow door, and he passed on the edict to Ye Zhao, who was white at the time, even in the palace, although he could talk to Zhang Rang and others, but to put it bluntly, he was just a dog that could be replaced at any time by Zhang Rang's side.

In recent years, as Ye Zhao's identity has risen, and his reputation has become bigger and bigger, Zuo Feng has gradually gained the attention of Zhang Rang and others because he is the liaison between Ye Zhao and the Ten Standing Servants.

"Zuo Gong is polite." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "If it weren't for Zuo Gong's help, Zhao's career would not have been so smooth." ”

Zuo Feng was no longer polite, but looked at Ye Zhao with a smile and said, "Feng came this time, in addition to sending the edict on behalf of His Majesty, there is also a private matter. ”

"Oh?" Ye Zhao looked at Zuo Feng in surprise: "I don't know what's going on?" If it is a matter of Huaixian, Zhao may be able to help one or two. ”

Zuo Feng waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not Feng's business, but it's dragged by people to send a letter to you." ”

"Dare to ask who it is?" Ye Zhao was even more surprised, although he had a lot of connections in Luoyang, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others sent the letter directly, so why should they fake their hands to others, as for Cai Yong, it was impossible to drag Zuo Feng to deliver the letter.

"See it at a glance!" Zuo Feng handed a bamboo tube to Ye Zhao, covered his mouth and chuckled, that girlish expression made Ye Zhao couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

Hurriedly took the bamboo tube, even in the face of thousands of troops and horses, Ye Zhao, who had no fear on his face, had to admit that he was frightened by Zuo Feng's smile, and he was afraid that he would not be able to help but draw his sword if he looked at the other party for a while.

Uncover the bamboo tube, inside is a piece of brocade, it should be Shu brocade, a very precious kind, with a familiar fragrance.

Ye Zhao opened the brocade, and saw a few words crooked with a needle and thread: "Bad person, don't forget what you promised me." ”

The handiwork is quite bad, from an artistic point of view, it is worthless, but when he saw the few dark red dots on the snow-white brocade, Ye Zhao felt a little inexplicable in his heart, it was quite warm.

"When I tell the princess, Zhao doesn't dare or hope." Ye Zhao raised his head, looked at Zuo Feng and smiled, "Just wait and see, princess." ”

"The old slave grew up watching the princess grow up in the palace, and it is the first time I have seen the princess as a female celebrity, so Xiuming should not disappoint the princess." Zuo Feng smiled a little teasingly.

Ye Zhao nodded ambiguously and did not respond, although he didn't know why this princess looked at him differently, but this matter was not a very good thing at the moment.

Zuo Feng didn't take it seriously, and then Ye Zhao asked about some things in Luoyang, so he sent him to rest, and the next morning, he set off to return to Luoyang.

Ye Zhao got the edict, summoned the generals, and asked everyone to pack up and follow him on the road.

"This court is too stingy, the lord has done so much, and in the end it is still a county order." Knowing that Ye Zhao was about to serve as the Luoyang Commander, Dian Wei and the others expressed strong dissatisfaction.

To put it bluntly, the yellow scarves of Liang Guo, Runan and even Nanyang were almost all assessed by Ye Zhao, that is, Yingchuan Bocai, and Ye Zhao defeated him first, and then was defeated by Huangfu Song, and even Chen Liu's merits of the yellow scarf were all given to Yuan Shao by Ye Zhao, but in the end, Ye Zhao only got the position of a county order, they didn't know what the difference between a county order and a county order, they only felt that the court was unfair.

Huang Shao on the side explained with a smile: "Luoyang Ling, with a rank ratio of two thousand stones, is the same as the history of the state and the state pastor, and can enter the dynasty to participate in politics, and the position is only below Jiuqing, and this official is not low." ”

"Isn't that still a prefectural order?" Dian Wei said dissatisfied.

Huang Shao was speechless, he didn't know how to explain the difference to these people for a while, Qian Wei on the side smiled and watched, without saying a word, since he came to Huaixian with Ye Zhao, he rarely spoke, and he was mostly fishing by the river on weekdays, and he rarely asked about Ye Zhuang's affairs.

Ye Zhao didn't pay attention to it, they would naturally know in the future, turned his head to look at Uncle Liang and said, "I'm going to Luoyang, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in the short term, so I'll ask Uncle Liang for family matters." ”

"Don't worry, Childe." Uncle Liang looked at Ye Zhao with satisfaction, with the rise of Ye Zhao, the current Ye family already has the appearance of prosperity, for this old man who has dedicated almost his whole life to the Ye family, the Ye family can prosper, which is his greatest wish.

"Remember to inform the Ye family merchants in Luoyang to make what I want in advance, and I will use it on the day I arrive in Luoyang." Ye Zhao asked again.

The promise with the princess, no matter what, must be fulfilled.

"The old slave has already sent someone to inform him, don't worry."

Ye Zhao called Dian Wei and the others, who were especially indignant, to get on the ferry and go straight to Chenggao.
