Chapter 144: Tian Feng confesses the Lord

"Although you can collect information and gain insight into human nature, because you are young, your experience is still shallow, and you have been in the academy for a long time, you don't know much about the world's human feelings. The lord of the pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info went to Yingchuan to recruit the four of you masters and apprentices that time, and finally took out the treasure, that is because you are all scribes, and the people around you are all Hongru, and you are very high, so you can't take out the treasure at the beginning, otherwise you will categorically refuse.

Tian Yuanhao's environment is completely different, although he is the head of the Julu Tian family, but the Tian family is also full of factions, there are still a few families in Julu to compete with the Tian family, the lord carries a heavy gift this time, not only to express his appreciation of Tian Yuanhao, but also to express the lord's recognition of the Tian family, the recognition of Tian Feng's status in the Tian family, this recognition is very important to Tian Feng, so prepare a generous gift, plus you and the good words of the two of them, plus the lord treats him sincerely, he will definitely be able to influence Tian Feng's old stubbornness, Let him know who the real master is. ”

Dong Zhao's words woke up the dreamer, and Guo Jia hurriedly bowed: "It turns out that the lord asked Guo Jia to follow Dong Gong to learn about the world." ”

Jin Liang's deep meaning does not stop there. Since Dong Zhao was appointed as the division of the Central Army, because Jin Liang's preferred left army division Hu Zhao has not yet arrived in Xiangyang from Yingchuan, Jin Liang remembered that Hu Zhao is Guo Jia's master, Guo Jia has almost learned Hu Zhao's skills in a few years, and continuing to let Guo Jia be Hu Zhao's assistant is not conducive to Guo Jia's growth, so let Guo Jia be Dong Zhao's assistant, Dong Zhao is now thirty years old, and his comprehensive ability and experience are temporarily better than Guo Jia. The most important thing is that these two people have no feelings for the Han court, and they will not harm the interests of the lord Jin Liang for the sake of the corrupt Han court, only Jin Liang's interests are followed. So Jin Liang left them in the Chinese army. As the most trusted military advisor.

Jin Liang selected twenty pearls, a pair of white bibs, and a thousand catties of gold from the treasures of the ten permanent servants in charge of Chen Lin. With Guo Jia and Fu Zhu, under the protection of the soldiers of the first battalion of the Dian Wei Feihu Army, they rushed to Julu County in the starry night. Since the Empress Dowager has been sealed into Jin Liang's shogunate, although he does not appreciate Jin Liang very much, it is inconvenient to resign immediately, and follow Jin Liang with the mood of taking one step at a time, and the more he knows about the Central Army, the more he respects Jin Liang, so that now Jin Liangqiang is pulling him to persuade Tian Feng. He didn't shirk either.

Fu Zhu has already made up his mind, if Jin Liang can't convince Tian Feng, he will resign together, if Tian Feng can take refuge in Jin Liang, he will also be loyal to Jin Liang, he decided to advance and retreat with his old friend Tian Feng. After bathing and changing clothes in an inn in Julu City in the morning, the group quickly rushed to the manor where Tian Feng lived.

The Julu Tian family is the first family of the Tian family, and the Tian family where Tian Yu of Yuyang and Tian Chou of Beiping are located is a side line of the Julu Tian family, and Tian Kai, who later served as the Qingzhou Thorn History under Gongsun Zhan, is also a side line of the Julu Tian family, which shows the momentum of the Julu Tian family.

The Tian family is one of the top families in Julu County. There are more than 100,000 acres of land and tens of thousands of slaves. Therefore, a huge Wu Fort was built, covering an area of about hundreds of acres, the wall is two zhang high, the following is made of big bluestone, the top is a big blue brick, take a closer look, a towering blue castle.

Jin Liang remembered that some of the Three Kingdoms novels he had read during the Harmony Year wrote Tian Feng as a village chief, and he couldn't help but laugh dumbly. Jin Liang and his entourage of more than 500 people, all of them are high-headed horses, wearing helmets and armor, galloping for a long time, the momentum is strong, the Tian family on the Wu Fort hurriedly told the head of the family Tian Feng: "There is a more than 500 cavalry rushing here, the cavalry is very strong, all of them are black armor and red robes, carrying halberds, and there is no flag. ”

Tian Feng groaned: "Xuanjia red robe, is the official army dress, it seems that there must be a high-ranking official in the army to come to see me, recently I heard that Jin Liang, Jin Xianting and Taifu Lu Zhi and other auxiliary ministers escorted the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven to avoid Dong Zhuo's harm, and drove to Xiangyang, raising troops to fight against Dong, it seems that this elite cavalry must be Jin Liang's men." ”

Tian Feng was well-informed, and knew that his friends Fu Zhu and Guo Jia were already under the command of Jin Liang, and when he climbed the city wall and looked at it from a distance, he knew that although it was five hundred cavalry, they were all carrying fine packages, and there should be gifts inside.

His cousin Tian Yu hurriedly stopped: "Brother, I don't know what these people want, how dare they open the door and accept it, if the Black Mountain thief pretends to be an official soldier, what should I do." Without waiting for Tian Feng's order, Tian Yu asked the family to take a bow and arrow, aiming at Jin Liang and his party.

Several elders of the clan were also worried that the Black Mountain thieves were pretending to be official soldiers, and because Tian Feng resigned from the position of serving the imperial history, the Tian family had no good support in the officialdom, and they were gradually dissatisfied with Tian Feng, Tian Feng saw that they were resolute and helpless, so he had to stand on the city wall and wait for the arrival of Jin Liang and others.

Jin Liang saw the Tian family's Ding stretching his bow and arrows at him from a distance, so he shook his head and said to Fu Zhu and Guo Jia: "Doesn't Tian Yuanhao see who we are, can't he guess our intentions?" ”

Fu Zhu frowned: "Before coming, Dong Zhao and Dong Gongren had made it clear that the Tian family has a big business and a huge clan, although Tian Feng is the head of the family, he can't fully control the Tian family, with my understanding of Tian Yuanhao, he must have seen that we are that army, and he can guess our intentions, but the Tian family is not his own family, and he can't be arbitrary." ”

Guo Jia also said: "Until now I understand what Dong Junshi said, the lord came with a generous gift to help Tian Yuanhao's momentum, if it can be given to high-ranking officials, it will definitely be more able to promote Tian Feng's prestige, I don't know what position the lord is willing to give Tian Yuanhao, with Guo Jia's humble opinion, it must be higher than serving the imperial history." ”

Jin Lianglang laughed loudly: "Since the Imperial History Doctor turned into a Sikong, the Imperial History Zhongcheng is the head of the Imperial History Stage, and Shang Shuling, Si Lixiao Lieutenant sits on a special seat, one of the three independent seats, the authority is very great, Tian Yuanhao is just right, and has done the Imperial History, and the Imperial History is the assistant of the Imperial History, Tian Yuanhao has this experience, he can be promoted to the Imperial History, supervise hundreds of officials, and impeach lawless officials. It's just that I'm a little worried. ”

"What is the lord worried about?" Guo Jia asked urgently.

"Yu Shi Zhongcheng is at the same level as me, the lieutenant of the division, I am afraid that Tian Feng will be recommended by me, and after taking up the post of Yu Shi Zhongcheng, he will not want to recognize me as the lord, if so, wouldn't I make wedding dresses for others in vain?!" It is normal for Jin Liang to be worried.

"The lord doesn't know Tian Yuanhao very well, this person is rarely bereaved, and he is mourning. The sun and the moon have passed. Don't laugh. This filial piety must be loyal, once Yuan Hao recognizes you as the lord, for the rest of his life, he will never betray, even if the lord's official position is still under him for a while, but if the lord can't get into his eyes, it is difficult to say. He smiled faintly.

While the three of them were talking and laughing, they had already come to the gate of Tianjia Wubao.

Frustrated with his head raised. shouted loudly to the castle tower: "Brother Yuan Hao, don't you know the little brother?" ”

"Ah, it turned out to be Gong and Xian Brother, didn't you go to Xiangyang, how did you come here?"

"Brother Yuan Hao, look at who this person is next to me?!" Frustrated, he stepped back and revealed Jin Liang, who was riding a red rabbit horse.

"The red rabbit horse under the crotch, the stone dragon knife in the palm, the purple and gold crown on the head, and the red brocade robe on the body. Wearing a beast face swallowing head chain armor, the waist is tied with a delicate lion belt! Could it be that Your Excellency is Lord Jin Liangjin, the deputy assistant of the Captain of the Cabinet of General Zhengnan?! Tian Feng asked in surprise.

Tian Feng never expected that Jin Liang would come to invite him in person. He resigned and went into hiding for several years, and Jingzhou Assassin Shi Jia Cong and the general He Jin repeatedly sent people to invite him, but he never came in person.

"It is under the next, Jin Liang has long heard that Mr. Tian is magnificent, the right is slightly strange, well-read, and the famous state party, has not had the opportunity to meet, today I have time, I came to visit Mr. Tian, Jin Liang is young and thin, suddenly ascended to a high position, his talent is not good, he is unable to do it, he came to ask Mr. Tian for advice, and I hope that Mr. Tian will not hesitate to give advice?!" Jin Liang rolled the saddle and dismounted, stood in front of the door, and bowed to salute.

Tian Feng saw that Jin Liang, as a general of Zhengnan, was a lieutenant and an important minister of the imperial court, but he was very respectful to himself, and looked at his cousin Tian Yu and the elders of the Tian family, who had always despised him, and snorted coldly: "Why don't you hurry up and open the door to greet him?!" ”

Tian Yujiu heard Jin Liang's name, Jin Liang broke Bai Bo and the Black Mountain thief, Jin Liang's murderous name has been lingering in his ears, he was afraid that this killing god would be annoyed and angry, and hurriedly shouted to the family below: "Why are you still stunned?" Don't hurry up and open the door yet. ”

The gate creaked open, and the drawbridge fell with a bang, Jin Liang was taken aback, a family's Wu fort actually surrounded the moat, and also repaired the suspension bridge, the Tian family's momentum was really big, and it was only later that he found that almost every family's Wu fort was built according to the defense method of the city.

Tian Feng straightened his clothes, took a few steps forward, and helped Jin Liang's still bowed body up: "How can Tian Feng be treated so favorably by the general?!" ”

Tian Feng is eight feet seven inches tall, very burly, although he is nearly forty years old, his appearance is still handsome and extraordinary, his eyebrows are hearty, and his chin is long and chic, but his eyebrows are thick and slightly upturned, which makes the whole person's temperament more upright, and he looks like he is the second Lu Zhi.

Jin Liang got up and said with a smile: "Mr. Tian's talent and morality can be compared to the sages of the ancients, my etiquette, respect for the virtuous, I don't feel that it is thick, but I am afraid that it is too thin." ”

"Haha, the general has an overreputation, this place is not a place to speak, please come in and talk about it." Tian Feng is a person who has just committed crimes, but such people often can't stand the sycophants of their peers or juniors, Jin Liang has seen many such middle-aged and elderly people in the harmonious years.

"Evil comes, present the gift." Jin Liang obeyed Dong Zhao's instructions and handed over the gift as soon as possible.

"Twenty pearls, two pairs of white bi, and one thousand catties of gold!" With the counting of the Tian family's housekeeper, Tian Feng's cousin Tian Yu and several other Tian family elders looked at each other, how could Jin Liang treat Tian Feng so kindly and give such a heavy gift, could it be that Tian Feng is going to make a comeback this time.

"The general is so generous, how can Tian Feng repay him?!" Tian Feng didn't refuse, because he saw the expressions on the faces of his cousin Tian Yu and several other elders of the Tian family, and suddenly felt very happy in his heart, and only when everyone entered the main hall and knelt down facing each other did he open his mouth and humbly say.

"Brother Yuan Hao, maybe you don't know it yet, now the imperial court is in ruins, the official positions in the court are vacant to wait for talents, the general has a good eye, and has recommended Brother Yuan Hao to serve as the post of the Imperial History in front of the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother, needless to say, Brother Yuan Hao also knows that this position is one level higher than your previous position of serving the Imperial History." Guo Jia said with a smile.

"General Kim, I don't know who this is?" Tian Feng couldn't recognize Guo Jia, so he hurriedly asked Jin Liangdao.

"Brother Yuan Hao, why can't you even recognize me Guo Fengxiao? Could it be that the old eyes are dizzy? Guo Jia laughed.

"It turned out to be you, the prodigal son, I haven't seen you for many days, why do you seem to be a different person, your complexion is better, your face is ruddy, not as green as before, and you have become fat, oh, it's not as thin as before, it seems to be much stronger, and it's no longer the weak scholar you used to be." After careful identification, Tian Feng barely recognized the greatly changed Guo Jia in front of him.

Guo Jia smiled: "These are all forced by my general, and he forced me not to drink too much." Longitudinal color is not allowed. It is not allowed to take pills. Every day I was forced to learn swords from Wang Yue's great sword master, and I wanted to return to Yingchuan immediately in a fit of anger, but he sent someone to monitor me, and I couldn't run even if I wanted to, but after these ten days, my body was strong, my appetite was better, and everything I ate was delicious. It's comfortable all over the body. ”

"Haha, you prodigal son, you just have to have a strict lord to discipline you well, otherwise your bad problems will collapse your body sooner or later."

Tian Feng said this, and thanked Jin Liang and said: "Thank you General for pulling my little friend back from the Ghost Gate, we all advised him not to drink all night long, but he just didn't listen." ”

"Sir, you don't need to be polite, Fengxiao is my subordinate, and he is also my confidant and friend, just like my siblings. How could I not love him well? ”

Tian Feng remembered Guo Jia's words just now, and asked in surprise: "The general is really willing to recommend me as the middle of the imperial history?!" ”

"Of course. I have long heard that Mr. is upright, jealous and hateful, because of the eunuch dictatorship, Yingxian was killed, Mr. resigned angrily and went into hiding, and the imperial history is to supervise the civil and military officials, and it is necessary for a righteous person like Mr. to serve, if it is the previous Han Fu, cowardly and incompetent, how can he take this great responsibility. Now Dong Zhuo's thief dominates Luodu, and he is good at setting up the puppet emperor Liu Xie, my Han court is in the autumn of critical survival, and needs to be loyal and virtuous from all over the country to save the world. Jin Liang bowed very earnestly and said.

"Tian Feng dares to ask the general's ambition?" Tian Feng did not answer directly, but asked with a solemn expression.

When Jin Liang heard this, he knew that Tian Feng already had half of his mind to return to obedience, and the rest was up to how he should behave, and he couldn't take what he had said to Chen Gong and others before, but said something practical: "Yesterday I met with Zhen Yu, the eldest son of Zhen's family, and Zhen Jiang, the eldest daughter, and they listed my deeds in recent days, and Zhen Jiang also concluded that in the past, there was King Jiang Shang Zuowu, and now there is Jin Liangfu Young Emperor. If Mr. asks me about my life's ambition, my ambition is very simple, that is, to emulate the martial ancestor Jiang Shang, assist the young emperor, and rejuvenate the Han family, and at the same time let all the military ministers under his command be able to worship the marquis. ”

"In ancient times, there was King Jiang Shang Zuowu, and now there is Jin Liangfu Young Emperor," Tian Feng silently recited this sentence several times, and suddenly leaned down and bowed: "Tian Feng is willing to worship Jin Liang as the main prince, and is willing to follow the lord to assist the young emperor, and the Zhongxing Han family." ”

Jin Liang knew that Tian Feng was different from Dong Zhao, Guo Jia and others, and he still had a lot of feelings for the Han family in his heart, so Jin Liang didn't reveal his ambitions at all, but just talked about the Wuzu Jiang Shang assisting King Wu to achieve the 800-year foundation of the Zhou Dynasty.

Frustrated on the sidelines, he originally thought that Jin Liang would have to work hard to persuade his friend, who knew that Jin Liang brought out "King Jiang Shang Zuowu in the past, and now there is Jin Liangfu Young Emperor", and the old friend worshipped.

Frustrated to the sentence "In ancient times, there was Jiang Shangzuo Wu King, now there is Lu Bufu Young Emperor" in his heart silently recited several times, when he read the fourth time, he suddenly woke up, although this sentence shackled Jin Liang's possible ambition to death, but at the same time, this sentence spread out, Jin Liang's prestige must be high, more influential than Cao Cao's "Qingping capable minister, troubled times' traitorous male", because Jin Liang is now in the center of the top ten auxiliary ministers, everyone in the world is watching how Jin Liang achieves the great cause of Wu Zu, and he will definitely gain fame and fortune.

After Jin Liang said this, he also had a trace of regret in his heart, which seemed to cut off his hope of usurping the throne and becoming emperor in the future. But he thought about it again, in this troubled era of the Eastern Han Dynasty, they all crossed the river by feeling the stones, who knew that the future would develop to that point, Liu Bian, the son of heaven who lived with the Taoist priest since childhood, is very different from Liu Xie, who loves power, maybe he will really take the initiative to Zen in the future? ! Who knows, let's take one step at a time, but in the end, no matter when and where, we must grasp the gun and power, even if we are a courtier, we must be a powerful minister above ten thousand people under one person.

Jin Liang hurriedly helped Tian Feng up: "Yuan Hao, with your help, it is like a long drought and a rainstorm, and it is like a tiger with wings." ”

Tian Feng said with a smile: "The lord does not need to praise falsely, Tian Feng has self-knowledge, knows his strengths and weaknesses, and hopes that the lord will be more generous in the future and be able to tolerate Tian Feng's rigid and guilty temperament, only in this way can Tian Feng's strengths be displayed." ”

"Yuan Hao, I knew that you had just committed a crime, I don't think I'm worried, but happy." Jin Liang also said with a smile.

"What's the joy of?" Tian Feng asked in surprise.

"Take copper as a mirror, you can be dressed, take the ancient as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall, take people as a reference, and you can know the gains and losses. Yuan Hao is a clear guide, I get Yuan Hao, I can understand the gains and losses of being the lord, so that I can continue to improve, and gradually become a wise lord, I am happy because of this. "Jin Liang is another beautiful sycophant.

"Take copper as a mirror, you can be dressed, take the ancient as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall, take people as a reference, and you can know the gains and losses. This sentence is really even a famous saying, I don't know if it was said by that sage, why have I never heard it?! Tian Feng asked.

"Hehe, that's what I just thought." Jin Liang was ashamed to plagiarize Li Shimin's famous words.

"The lord is really a wise lord, Tian Yuanhao, you are so lucky this time!" Guo Jia stroked his palm and laughed on the side. (To be continued.) )
