Chapter 54 There are talents in Nanyang
A few days later, Su Zhe officially received a letter of appointment from Liu Biao and appointed him as the Taishou of Nanyang.
Su Zhe received the appointment, and on the same day, he met with the 1,000 private soldiers of the Su family led by Su Fei, crossed the Hanshui River in the north, and went all the way to Wancheng to take up his post.
At noon, the sky was clear and spring was in full swing.
Su Zhe is proud of the spring breeze, walking briskly on the avenue to the north, Nanyang County Zhiwan City, the majestic outline of the city, has come into view.
Thinking about a few months ago, he was still an unknown scholar from a humble family, but now he has become the county guard of an important town like Nanyang, and the change of status and power is really like a world away.
"Nanyang Nanyang, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu rose in Nanyang back then, I hope this place can also become my Su Zhe's Longxing place......"
When Su Zhe was in high spirits and secretly expressed his feelings, the dust and fog were rolling on the avenue ahead, and a team of carriages and horses was coming.
When I looked closely, I saw that the team was waving the banner of "Cai".
"Childe, what kind of people are this, do you want to be vigilant?" Zhou Cang asked vigilantly.
Su Zhe waved his hand and smiled faintly: "This must be our Cai Beijia who wants to roll up and get out, don't make a fuss." ”
Sure enough, a moment later, the team of chariots and horses approached, and Su Zhe saw Cai Mao riding a high-headed horse at a glance, with a lofty spirit and gorgeous clothes.
"Xiaguan Su Zhe, I've seen Cai Beijia." Su Zhe immediately owed his body and took the lead in saluting.
Cai Mao was promoted to another driver, and his official position was nominally above him, and he was now fledgling, and it was not yet time for him to publicly turn his face with the Cai family, so he still needed to endure it for the time being.
Cai Mao restrained his mount, obviously he had already recognized who it was, but he still had to pretend to glance at it a few times, and said: "Who should this official be, it turns out to be our Wolong Su Ziming of Jingzhou." ”
He called "Wolong" in his mouth, but there was a bit of disdain in his tone, as if "Wolong" was a humiliating name.
Su Zhe was not annoyed, and said lightly: "Cai Don't drive the award, it's just Mr. Shuijing's love, Zhe is ashamed." ”
"Dare to be a dare to be, why don't you dare to be!" Cai Mao had a smile on his face, "I heard that Su Taishou just arrived in Chang'an City, and he was appreciated by Dong Taishi, how can such a means be available to ordinary people, I think that saying that you are Wolong is to look down on you, and you should be called a flying dragon." ”
Cai Mao's smile is very sincere, but there is a strange irony of yin and yang everywhere in her words, which makes people listen to it very harshly.
Su Zhe was still not annoyed, and said with a smile: "Cai Beijia's ability to tell jokes really makes Xia Guan admire, but whether it is this Wolong or Feilong, it is just the words of others, no matter what they say, Xia Guan doesn't care." ”
Cai Mao frowned, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, obviously he was disgusted by Su Zhe's indifference and calmness.
At that moment, he put away his smile, brushed his hand and said: "That's it, the official has to rush back to Xiangyang to assist the state pastor, so I won't tell you more, we will have a date later." ”
As he spoke, Cai Mao clamped the horse's belly, did not squint, and walked away from Su Zhe.
He didn't look at Su Zhe, and Su Zhe didn't look at him squarely, so he turned his horse and continued to move forward.
Zhou Cang couldn't get used to it, so he followed closely and said in a deep voice: "Childe, this birdman surnamed Cai, dares to be so cold and sarcastic to Childe, it's just tired of life, do you want me to kill him." ”
Su Zhe sighed and educated: "I said Zifeng, how many times have I told you, son, don't shout and kill at every turn, we haven't made Liu Biao's rebellion yet, you killed his don't drive, how can we mix." ”
"Oh, it's me who didn't think about it." Zhou Cang scratched his head, "I just can't get used to seeing the surnamed Cai pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in front of his son." ”
"You can't get used to it, I can't get used to it, son, don't worry, the days of looking at their eyes are running out."
Su Zhe glanced back at Cai Mao, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eagle eyes.
A thousand men and horses continued to move forward, and before dusk, they came to the south gate of Wancheng.
At this time, the officials of Nanyang County and Wancheng heard that the new Taishou was coming to take office, and they were already waiting outside the south gate to greet them.
Su Zhe slightly cleared the head, but only Huang Jie was missing.
Just because of Su Zhe's merit, he was appointed by Liu Biao as a tribute envoy, and soon after he went to Chang'an, Huang Jie, who had no merit, was promoted from the Jianyang County Order to the Wancheng Order, and became the county order of the county government.
Huang Zhe's promotion to Wancheng Commander was based on the influence of his father Huang Zu and the Huang family's family strength, Su Zhe couldn't be clearer.
Now that Su Zhe has gone to Nanyang, he naturally wants to build Nanyang County into a base area that is only loyal to himself, and key official positions at all levels must of course be cronies.
Wancheng is the seat of the county governor, how could he allow the position of the county commander to be occupied by Huang Jie, just on his way to the post, he was thinking about how to use Huang Zhu to get rid of it.
Right now, Huang Jie dared not to greet him, which was in his arms.
"Where is the Wancheng County Order?" Su Zhe's face sank and asked.
A dignified young official stood up and arched his hand: "Back to Taishou, our Huangxian Commander is in poor health and can't come to welcome Taishou to take office, and I ask Taishou to forgive me." ”
Sick.
I'm afraid I'm sick in my heart.
Su Zhe secretly sneered, but he was interested in the extraordinary young official in front of him, and asked, "Who are you?" ”
The young official replied lightly: "Returning to Taishou, the subordinate official Li Yan is Wancheng County." ”
Li Yan!
Like a thunderous name, Su Zhe suddenly remembered that in history, Li Yan, an important minister of the Shu Han Dynasty who was orphaned by Liu Bei along with Zhuge Liang.
This person can be valued by Liu Bei, and he is naturally talented.
And Su Zhe vaguely remembered that Li Yan was a native of Nanyang, and he did work for Liu Biao when he was young, but he fled to Yizhou as an official when Cao Cao went south to Jingzhou.
Could it be that the person in front of you is that Li Yanbu?
Su Zhe's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but feel the excitement of picking up the treasure in his heart.
You must know that he is now in charge of Nanyang Taishou, which is the time to cultivate forces and recruit talents for my use.
In terms of military generals, he already has three generals, Su Fei, Zhou Cang and Hu Che'er, although he is not a first-class general, but he is enough.
He has no shortage of military generals, but he lacks a competent civil official to assist him in handling the government affairs of a county.
And this Li Yan in front of him is an all-rounder who can write and martial arts in history, and now that he has fallen in front of his eyes, isn't it a big pie in the sky.
"Well, since God has given me a talent for both civil and military affairs, how can I not use it, God, thank you......"
Su Zhe was secretly relieved in his heart, but on the surface, he remained silent, and said with a flick of his hand: "Li Yan, you lead the way, I will go to the county government to see if this Huang county commander is really in good health." ”
"The subordinate obeys." Li Yan received the order very calmly, did not panic at all, turned over and calmly led the way.
Su Zhe summoned Su Fei to him and commanded in a low voice: "Second uncle, after entering the city, you quickly take a large group of people to the military camp, and firmly show me the people and horses of Huang Jie, and no one is allowed to enter or leave." ”
"Ziming, what are we going to do here, is it possible that as soon as we arrive, we will have to fight Huang Jie?" A look of worry welled up on Su Fei's face.
Su Zhe smiled: "How is it possible, I'm not so impulsive, uncle don't worry." ”
Su Fei breathed a sigh of relief, and before leaving, he told again: "Ziming, you must be calm, you must remember, more things are better than less, and if you can endure it, you can bear it." ”
Su Fei reminded him for a long time, and then he took seven hundred cavalry horses and horses and went straight to the barracks after entering the city.
Su Zhe, accompanied by Zhou Cang and Hu Che'er, took three hundred elite soldiers and went straight to Wancheng County.
County office.
Huang Jiegan sat on the top, his face gloomy as iron, his fists clenched, and his eyes burned with indignation.
"The imperial court is really blind, it is ridiculous that any poor boy is the Taishou of Nanyang and presses on the head of the son!"
Chen on the side also gritted his teeth and scolded indignantly.
Huang Jie's fist clenched tighter, and his face became even more ugly.
At this time, Na Chen changed his words again, and said cautiously: "But now that the wood is in the boat, that kid is almost in Wancheng, according to the rules, shouldn't the son also leave and personally go outside the city to greet him." ”
Bang!
Huang Zhu suddenly slapped the case, and said angrily: "I want my son to deign to meet that low-born boy and dream!" ”
