Liu Mao did not take office immediately, this time he came, just to discuss the handover with Ye Zhao, and after politely refusing Ye Zhao's hospitality, he left in a hurry and rushed back to the county to mobilize people to take office.

"Lord, just let it go?" Qiu Chi was a little reluctant to say, although he already knew that Ye Zhao might not be able to stay in this horse city for a long time, but he was still a little unwilling to be so abrupt.

"Captain Hu Wuhuan, rank ratio of 1,600 stones, a state assassin history is only a rank ratio of 2,000 stones, this is already a real power official position in this Youzhou, the status is not even much worse than the history of the assassin, using a captain to protect Wuhuan in exchange for Ma Cheng, it's already very good, what else do you want?" Ye Zhao saw it very openly, from the beginning, he was not prepared to stay in this horse city for a long time, and now it was beyond his expectations to be able to get a position as a captain of Wuhuan.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion has not yet appeared, the generals of the Han Dynasty are not permanent, except for the general of Luoyang and a general like Liu Yan who hangs the post of a lieutenant general, the captain is basically the pinnacle of the military position, with three schools of soldiers and horses, 6,000 people, it doesn't sound like much, but you must know that before the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out, the entire Han recorded army was not even less than 100,000, and Ye Zhao commanded 6,000 soldiers and horses, which was already considered a high-level in the military system, and there was nothing to be dissatisfied with.

Unless he can't think of wanting to rebel with a horse city, otherwise, this result is the best now, at least Liu Yan is still kind and did not directly adjust him, otherwise, with Liu Yan's status as a clan relative of the Han family and his status in Shilin, Ye Zhao can only endure this tone.

When Qiu Chi heard this, he could only sigh secretly, if it was before, Ye Zhao could be promoted to the captain of Wuhuan, compared to Ma Cheng at the beginning, the status is not known how many times, but time has changed, after two years of governance, Ma Cheng has not only become a rare county town in Youzhou, but the interests are even more terrifying, the most important thing is that Ye Zhao has the military and political power here in his own hands, although the official position of the captain of Wuhuan is high, but there are many constraints, although there are three schools of soldiers and horses under his command, but in addition to Ye Zhao's school, Whether the other two schools will be able to direct the movement is still questionable.

Ye Zhao patted Qiu Chi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be stupid, even if there is no such thing, you don't think that the imperial court will always hand over all the military and political power in Macheng to me like this, right?" ”

"Uh......" Qiu Chi was stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly realized that Ma Cheng can have today, in addition to the preferential treatment of tax exemption for three years, the most important thing is that the rights belong to Ye Zhao alone, and others cannot interfere.

But the three-year tax exemption given by the imperial court is now only a few months away, and once the tax system is restored, with the weight of the imperial court's current taxes, it is impossible for Ma Cheng to make money every day as in the past, and at least half of the tax revenue must be handed over to the imperial court, and the rest of the point, maintaining ordnance, city defense, and some miscellaneous daily use, even if there is a surplus, it will never be too much.

If you calculate it this way, it is not bad to be able to be promoted to the captain of Wuhuan, as the number one military division under Ye Zhao, his status is naturally rising, but when he arrives at the captain's mansion, I am afraid that he will no longer be able to enjoy the scenery of Macheng.

"Let people prepare a generous gift to send to the county, Zhonglang will now serve as the county-by-county Taishou, and he is a relative of the Han family, now that he has this opportunity, he wants to make friends with one or two, remember, it is a heavy gift, don't be stingy." Ye Zhao said with a smile.

Huaxia has been a humane society since ancient times, Ye Zhao wants to go further, at least before the Han Dynasty is subverted, this network has to be established first, but unfortunately his father, who has never met him, died too early, and the former connections have long faded, and now his connections are expanded with Cai Yong and Wang Fen as the center, it seems that one is a scholar and a scholar, and the other is a state assassin, which is quite strong, but in fact, it is impossible for people to revolve around him all day long, so Ye Zhao must continue to expand his connections. And Liu Yan is obviously a good choice.

"Don't worry, my subordinates know what to do." Qiu Chi bowed and said.

"Let Ali pack up, and as soon as Liu Mao's men arrive, we will go to Jundu Mountain!" Ye Zhao stretched his waist and walked out.

Jundu Mountain, is where the Wuhuan Captain Department is located, and the responsibility is to prevent Wuhuan from going south to Koubian, but in the past two years, with the large-scale trade between Macheng and Xianbei, Wuhuan and other tribes, many small tribes have gathered in the area of Danhan Mountain, Macheng has eighteen Guancheng defenses, plus Liu Mao's two thousand tigers, as long as the main general is not brain-dead, even if he really falls out with those tribes in the area of Danhan Mountain, it is enough to protect himself.

On the contrary, this Jundu Mountain is located between Yanshan and Wuhuan Mountain Mountains, and it is also the main direction of the Hu people going south, the strategic significance is very important, in previous years, the Wuhuan Captain's Mansion will basically be built here, Ye Zhao doesn't want to do anything, it is now the sixth year of Guanghe, the Taiping Sect has begun to lay out as early as three years ago, and by now, the Yellow Turban Uprising that he knows should be about to break out, once the Yellow Turban Uprising breaks out, Ye Zhao will write a letter to drag Cai Yong to help him say that he will join the sequence of suppressing the Yellow Turban Uprising, as long as the merit is enough, With Cai Yong's connections, enough meritorious service, and secretly looking for the Ten Standing Attendants, it should not be difficult to find an official position in Luoyang.

The feudal officials look beautiful, but at this time the world is not chaotic, the scenery of the feudal officials is a later thing, now, just like the Guo Xun brothers, holding the military and political power of Youzhou for several years, but the court said a word, you have to withdraw, you can't resist, when the world has not been completely chaotic, the feudal officials are only the feudal officials, and they will never reach the point of supporting the army and self-respect, even if the court is rotten now, it will definitely not allow you to support the army and self-respect.

It is to see this clearly, Liu Yan wants Macheng Ye Zhao to be so happy, before the foundation of the Han family is completely shaken, the power center of the Han Dynasty has always been in Luoyang rather than the place, he wants to make a difference in the future, have a good foundation, must go to Luoyang gilding, one is the right, the other is the name.

Don't look at Ye Zhao's prosperity in this horse city now, but his reputation is only limited to this Youzhou area, who knows him in the Central Plains?

It will take a while to leave, Ye Zhao took advantage of the next few days, began to deal with some tails, and all the craftsmen he had cultivated in the past two years were sent back to Hanoi, these are the foundation of his future rise, in the past two years, a lot of good things have been researched, and now the time has not come, it is not good to take them out, but these people must not be let go, and they will be packed and sent to Hanoi with their families, as vassals of the Ye family, managed by Uncle Liang, and after he plans the foundation of the future, these people will all be sent over.

In addition, it is property, in the past two years, with the convenience of tax exemption, in addition to the large number of development of Macheng, Ye Zhao's own private pockets can be suffgled a lot, these are his Ye family's private property, and it is also legal income, except for a part of it to maintain contacts, as long as the rest is allowed, he can rely on these family wealth to pull up a force at any time.

"Lord, the woman is awake!" Three days later, Ye Zhao was handling official business, Guan Hai strode in and bowed.

"Let's go, let's see." Ye Zhao stood up when he heard this, and followed Guan Hai to the small courtyard where the woman was placed.

"I've seen the prefectural order." When he came to the small courtyard, a doctor had just come out of the room, saw Ye Zhao, and hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects.

"Sir, don't be polite." Ye Zhao stretched out his hand, looked at the doctor and said, "Is this girl okay?" ”

"I was in a coma for three days and three nights, and my fate was saved." The doctor shook his head and sighed: "The old man has practiced medicine all his life, such a ruthless person, don't say a woman, it is rare for a man to be a man, listen to what Jun Sima said, this woman has experienced a hard battle before coming to Macheng, and her body has been severely damaged, but after that, she can still follow the county order to travel dozens of miles to Macheng, if it is not for timely treatment, I am afraid that it has returned to the underworld at this moment!" ”

"So heavy?" Ye Zhao was surprised, although he saw this woman with a terrifying injury before, but he followed them all the way back to Macheng, and it was expected to be fine, but he was in a coma for three days and three nights as soon as he fell into a coma, which made Ye Zhao feel a little inappropriate.

"I'm afraid it's more serious than adults think, this woman has a lot of old troubles, new and old wounds add up to no less than three hundred, of which more than ten are fatal, these are just old troubles, what is more terrifying is this woman's heart." A look of amazement flashed in the healer's eyes.

"How?" Ye Zhao asked with a smile.

"Do you know the scar on her face?" The healer asked.

"Yes." Ye Zhao nodded, how could he forget that his originally delicate face was completely destroyed because of that scar.

"This scar is from the left forehead to the bottom of the skeleton, although the knife scar is rolled, it is definitely not caused by a quick blade, if the old man is not mistaken, the knife mark is clearly this woman's self-sore!" The healer said in a deep voice.

"Self-sore!?" Rao is Ye Zhao's heart, and he couldn't help but gasp, he knew very well how important appearance was to a woman, especially a woman who was still good-looking, self-disfigurement, I really don't know what this woman has endured?

"Yes, self-sore." The doctor sighed and said: "This woman's ruthlessness and decisiveness are really the only ones seen in the old man's life, and it is best for adults not to keep her by his side, otherwise he will ......."

The doctor didn't continue, such a ruthless woman, even listening to it, felt stunned, leaving such a woman by his side is definitely not a good thing.

"Got it, there's an old gentleman." Ye Zhao nodded silently, turned his head to look at the guard who was following him, and said, "Go to the account room and pay Mr. a thousand more yuan." ”

"Whoa!" The guard agreed, and bowed his hand to the healer, "Sir, please." ”

"Thank you, sir." The doctor hurriedly thanked him, don't look at Ye Zhao's usual frenzied absorption of the vitality outside the plug like a vampire, but for his own people, especially those who have outstanding achievements in all walks of life, he is quite bold, otherwise Ma Cheng would not be able to attract so many famous craftsmen and doctors.

No wonder it's so familiar!

After the doctor left, Ye Zhao entered the room, looked at the woman on the bed and looked at him with open eyes, and sighed in his heart, in his previous life, women who could live a personal life in such a dark era had a similar heart, but the woman in front of him was more ruthless than them.
