Chapter 556: The Yecheng eunuchs have been healed
For the Youzhou army under Lu Zhi, if they sincerely obeyed Dong Zhuo, it would be obviously impossible, after all, if Dong Zhuo finally exterminated the Jizhou Yellow Turban and killed Zhang Jiao, then the first merit of the Han Dynasty to pacify the Yellow Turban Moth thieves would be completely stolen by Dong Zhuo, which would undoubtedly not be tolerated by them.
Therefore, it is obviously impossible for the Han army in Jizhou at this time to completely obey Dong Zhuo's orders.
Whether it is Dong Zhuo or the Han court, of course, it is impossible to fully trust this Han army, so it is necessary to transfer another army to Jizhou. And Dong Zhuo was born in Liangzhou, and the best place to transfer troops is naturally his hometown, Liangzhou, where the elite soldiers of the Han Dynasty are produced, and because Dong Zhuo's old department is also Liangzhou soldiers and horses, the cooperation between the two parties is naturally different.
Therefore, Dong Zhuo set out from Hedong and brought his old ministry and Liangzhou to transfer elite troops into Jizhou, which was naturally allowed by the DPRK and China. It's just that since the Taiping Road Incident in Liangzhou, there have been several troop transfers, with Huangfu Song in front of him, and then Dong Zhuo, most of the elites from all over the country have been transferred, and the interior is empty, so it will naturally arouse the covetousness of some careerists who already have great plans in their hearts.
Not to mention the rebellion in Liangzhou, since Dong Zhuo led the troops into Jizhou, did not achieve results, but changed Lu Zhi's tactics, gave up the siege of Guangzong County, which was guarded by Zhang Jiao, and led the main force to attack Zhang Bao's Xiaquyang County, besieged for more than two months, and this move caused the dissatisfaction of the emperor and the ministers, and finally Dong Zhuo was like Lu Zhi, and Dong Zhuo was recruited to enter the court lieutenant, and then rebelled "to reduce the death penalty", as for the main general of Jizhou, in the end, Zuo Zhonglang, who had just ended the Yanzhou war, would be the main Huangfu Song, and Pingkou Zhonglang would be Fuquan as the deputy, Led the troops to preside over the Jizhou Pingjiao event.
Yanzhou East County across the Yellow River, close to Jizhou, Hebei, before, it was in the Han army to encircle and suppress Jizhou in this extraordinary period, Yanzhou East County Yellow Turban Moth thief Qu Shuai Bu had heard that Huangfu Song led the army to crusade against Dongjun, knowing that their own strength was not as good as the Han army that had just won the Taiping Road in Yuzhou, he hurriedly gathered his troops and horses, and prepared to cross the river and flee into Jizhou. At the same time, Starry Night sent people to Jizhou Taiping Road for help, hoping that the other party would respond.
However, Jizhou Taiping Road has long been difficult to protect itself, how can there be more troops to respond, and Huangfu Song also knows that he can't order Bu Jidao to cross the river to join Jizhou Taiping Road and pursue it to the death. In the end, he caught up with the Yellow Turban Moth Thief Bu Ji in Cangting, defeated it, and captured Bu Ji, killed more than 2,000 Yellow Turban Moth Thieves, and the rest were all surrendered and captured, handed over to the local government office, and when the Taiping Road chaos was calmed down, it was sent to Saiwai Tuntian.
After Chen Liu, Dongjun and the Yellow Turban were pacified, the Han Army Huangfu Song and Fuquan Department immediately joined forces and swept Jiyin County, the number of Yellow Turban Moth thieves in Jiyin County was already small, not to mention that this time it was the main force of the Han Army that was suppressed, and in a few days, they were either killed or captured.
Since then, the Yanzhou Yellow Turban has been pacified by Huangfu Song and Fuquan Ministry. Subsequently, the imperial court decree came, ordering the two to lead the troops across the river and go to Jizhou to preside over the overall situation.
Entering August, the temperature remains high, even the wind has a trace of fire, the next day after crossing the river, suddenly ushered in a heavy rainstorm, the breeze is cool, wash away the irritability all the way, so not cool.
However, the soldiers of the Han army were not happy for long, but complained with a stomach, but the reason was that the rainstorm was too heavy, making the official roads along the road muddy, and every step must bring out a foot of muddy water, and in the muddy black soil mixed with sewage, there were footprints that reached the knees step by step.
For example, the generals and cavalry of Fuquan have horses to walk on their behalf, and many other foot soldiers do not have such convenience, so in order to save trouble, they simply take off their boots and march barefoot. Of course, these foot soldiers are actually okay, but the most terrible thing in the army is the ruts of those transportation logistics, the muddy ground makes the wooden carts loaded with countless ordnance and food, even if there are many soldiers to push, it still seems difficult to move an inch, greatly increasing the marching time, and the difficulty is also aggravated.
Passing through Ye County, Wei County, the heavy rain ended, the Han army stopped to rest, Wei County was too guarded, personally led the county officials and a cadre of county soldiers, went out of the city to greet, and prepared wine and meat to reward the army.
Later, due to the urgency of the military situation, Huangfu Song ordered the army to camp outside the city, and strictly ordered the soldiers to leave the camp, let alone enter the city. And he, together with Fuquan and some of the generals under the command of the two, was invited by the Taishou of Wei County to enter the city to catch the wind.
The reception banquet was held in the county office, during which there was no well-known unrestrained maiko in the land of Wei and Zhao to accompany them, except for the wine and meat, everything else was simple, so that the emperor Fu Song praised Wei County for being too honest and honest, not arrogant and extravagant.
Wei Jun Taishou said with an embarrassed face, his actions were all caused by his subordinates' trial and admonition, which made him vigilant, and everyone was curious about the trial when they heard it. And the Wei County Taishou is also known as the judge for the mirror, upright, upright, so Huangfu Song praised the trial of his people, praised Zhao Di where he is, strong and upright talent, there is enough to judge the south.
Judging the character is south, about 30 years old, quite tall, with good facial features, a short beard, a long sword hanging from his waist, a pair of thick eyebrows straight and long, flying obliquely into his sideburns, adding a little heroic air to him.
With such a appearance, there is a style of local celebrities, not to mention, its bearing is also extraordinary, even if Huangfu Song has repeatedly praised, there is no complacency. And the judge pair Huangfu Song was respectful but not flattering, and responded decently, such a demeanor, seeing that Huangfu Song and others nodded secretly and praised, Fuquan was naturally one of them.
Looking at the loyal minister in front of him whose historical ending was not too good, Fu Quan couldn't help but sigh, as the judgment was as told in the history books, loyal and generous, and there were festivals that could not be violated. From his answers to Fuquan and other officials, it can be seen that he is no different from those outspoken ministers in history, and he is indeed extremely loyal, but it is a pity that there are very few such courtiers who have a good ending, and there are only a handful of monarchs in history who can really restrain themselves and tolerate such courtiers taking the risk of direct advice.
There was not much entertainment at the banquet, and after everyone finished eating and drinking, there was nothing else to do, so they said goodbye to Weijun Taishou and left. Wei County Taishou knew that it was important for the army to quell the chaos, and it was rare to be able to stay in the county office for dinner, so he naturally did not dare to keep more, so he only ordered the trial to accompany him and send everyone away.
Out of the county office, the trial took the initiative to open the topic and chatted with everyone, Huangfu Song probably liked the trial very much, and chatted with him very closely, but Fu Quan didn't talk much, just looked at the bustling Yecheng attentively.
The streets are crowded and crowded, including the children of wealthy families, official eunuchs, and rich businessmen, ladies, slaves and even wandering beggars, which seem to be a rich and prosperous scene.
Fuquan was surprised by this, but also understood, and had to sigh at the prosperity of Yedi, even if the entire Jizhou is still in the critical period of the Han army to exterminate the Taiping Road Yellow Turban Moth thieves, but this does not affect the lives of the people of Yecheng at all, compared with the war outside the city, Yecheng is really the best to live and work in peace and contentment, and it also proves that Yecheng and Luoyang are the top cities in the Han Dynasty, which is also the reason why Luoyang was later destroyed by Dong Zhuo and Jizhou became the top state in terms of population.
The location of Hebei is dangerous, the place of Jizhou is rich, the soldiers in the territory are strong and strong, among them, the name of the Euphorbia of Jizhou, because of the Guangwu Emperor Lai's Dingding the world, such a treasure land, no wonder it is a place that the soldiers of the past dynasties must fight.
As the trial walked, there were fewer pedestrians on the streets, and there were fewer shops, but there were more and more palatial mansions, and Fuquan felt more and more wrong.
Not only Fuquan, but also Huangfu Song and others, chatting and chatting, also found some abnormalities, but the judge's face was not shocked, but it did not let them suspect that the judge and the others had ghosts in their hearts, and they still chatted with him and walked at the same time.
Until everyone walked to a place, Huangfu Song stopped his words violently, and turned to look at a mansion not far away that was obviously beyond the construction specifications. The scale of such a magnificent mansion is not comparable to the specifications of the royal mansion of the general kingdom, and it is really shocking that there are people in Yecheng who have such energy, covering the land of Jizhou with one hand, they are in the field, and they don't know that there is such a mansion in Yecheng.
"Returning to the two Zhonglang, this is the Beppu of Zhao Zhong, the middle servant." Seeing Huangfu Song's appearance, he also knew that there was no need to hide it, so he stroked his short beard and explained lightly.
As we all know, people in the Han Dynasty directly called others by name, but it was extremely impolite, and ordinary people rarely called each other by name. What's more, Zhong Chang Shi is a higher official than two thousand stones, and Zhao Zhong himself even has the title of Marquis of Liehou, according to the normal title, others should call him Zhao Chang Shi or Zhao Hou, and like the judge, he doesn't care about others calling him by his name in public, which can be described as extremely bold, and he is also extremely disdainful of eunuchs.
After that, Huangfu Song and Fu Quan looked at each other, and they both thought, how smart the two of them were, they were not political newcomers, they had experienced countless calculations, and they immediately guessed what they were trying to do. He probably deliberately led them to Zhao Zhong's mansion, and took the opportunity to say that if the two pretended not to see, it wouldn't be long before the entire Hebei scholars would know that Huangfu Song and Fuquan were afraid of eunuchs.
Fu Quan even glanced at the trial with a deep meaning, and couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, the character of the trial is upright, but it also hides a tyranny that is self-sacred. He and Huangfu Song are supposed to be their superiors, but he actually designed them like this, saying that he was bold? Or is it upright and not afraid of power?
At this time, Fu Quan also had a self-deprecation in his heart, but he didn't expect that he had been on guard, but he was calculated by this trial. I don't know if this is the act of one person, or if it has long been favored by Wei Jun Taishou, thinking about it later, Fu Quan feels that this is probably the insistence of one person, otherwise, if Wei Jun Taishou knew about this earlier, I am afraid that Taishou personally brought them to Zhao Zhong's mansion.
Moreover, if Wei Jun Taishou knew about this, he would not have waited until now to report it, I am afraid that he would have already written to the imperial court. However, if he really wrote to the imperial court, it is estimated that it is impossible to stay in the position of the Wei County Taishou now, so there is only one explanation for this matter, that is, after the trial and match led them out of the county office, he temporarily decided to let Huangfu Song and Fu Quan play the impeachment of Zhao Zhong.
After all, if the Wei County Taishou was afraid of Zhao Zhong's power and was instructed to cover up this matter and prevent the news from spreading, then even if he humbly listened to the admonitions, he would definitely not give in on this matter related to his official position.
Therefore, I am afraid that the trial has always wanted to find an opportunity to write this matter to the court, but there is no chance, after all, there is no certain power, even if their music can be sent to Luoyang, I am afraid that the ministers and officials of the court, and even the emperor may not be able to see their music. Now, the arrival of Huangfu Song and Fu Quan has given the judge a chance to fulfill his wish, and of course he will not give up.
Now that the situation is not on their side, if they are not careful, their reputation will be ruined, and the first person to answer the trial is Huangfu Song. I saw him pretend to shake his head and laugh and said: "Since Zhengnan has this heart, how dare the servant shirk, this matter should be truthfully reported to the court, please punish the disobedient minister." ”
Of course, that's what he said, but Fu Quan was beside Huangfu Song, but he saw this guy with cold eyes, thinking about it, is it okay to be used like this? It's just that Huangfu Song wants a name, so naturally he will not isolate himself from the scholars, so he can only agree, or even not get angry at all. Otherwise, now the eunuch power is still strong, if he plays this sparsely, so that the eunuch will enter the emperor, and Lu Zhi and Dong Zhuo, change his identity as the chief general of the Han army in Jizhou, I am afraid that the emperor who wants to make great achievements will cry because of this, after all, there are not many dynasties who can have this kind of opportunity to revive, and everyone who gets this opportunity will leave their own reputation in the history books.
With Huangfu Song as the leader, Fu Quan thought about it for a while, and nodded his head in agreement, but he played a trick here, and said: "Alone with Huangfu Zhonglang, play the court, and say that Zhao Zhong is lawless." ”
The implication is that he will not take the initiative to play, at most it is equivalent to signing his name on the book, and if something happens, the eunuch will not fight with him at the first time, but will first fight with Huangfu Song, a close figure of He Jin. Fu Quan replied like this, but also has his own reasons, he is naturally not afraid of Hebei scholars or even the world corporal people saying that he favors eunuchs, what he is really afraid of is that if the emperor Liu Hong knows that he sees Zhao Zhong and does not report it, will he be suspicious of himself, after all, today Fu Quan sees Zhao Zhong's mansion and takes it for granted, tomorrow it is possible that he will build his own mansion and heal it, if this kind of thing enters the emperor's mind, then the most terrible thing is that it is very likely to give you a two-hearted relative label, which is undoubtedly very terrible, Therefore, Fuquan had no choice but to agree.
When the judge heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he said: "Zhao is rampant, no one dares to take care of it, and the subordinates have no choice but to make this decision, and I hope Zhonglang will forgive me." ”
In fact, everything was as Fu Quan expected, although Wei Jun was too modest, but on some issues, he always refused to nod, such as the impeachment of Zhao Zhong. If it weren't for the fear of eunuchs, the trial would have let him play in the court a long time ago, how could he wait for today's opportunity?
