From March to May, Wang Yun received letters from his nephew, who was the county magistrate of Loufu County, Yanmen County. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He didn't like this nephew who relied on his relationship to get up, he felt that his ability to do things was too poor, he was young, he didn't pay attention to studying, and his mind was all about drilling camps.

The first letter only aroused his curiosity, and the nephew, who had never contacted him directly, opened the letter and read it cursorely, but his writing skills were so poor that he could only understand the general meaning.

However, one of the sentences shocked him very much, "The worries of the world are worried, and the joy of the world is happy!" How much of a heart does it take to say such a good sentence? The only finishing touch was not his nephew's original words, but a relay of others, which made him even more disappointed in his nephew.

Just rescued hundreds of Hun slaves, and there was no head, how could it be counted as his military exploits? It was too difficult to transfer him out, and he also wanted to recommend this chivalrous man to be the county magistrate, which was simply impossible.

The April letter was even more uninspiring, not even a little substantial, and he casually threw it aside.

In a letter from mid-May, he described that the village protection team formed by the knights completely annihilated a Hun hundred-man team, and now the relationship between the Han and the Huns is very good in name, and there are constant small actions in private, but this kind of thing cannot be brought to the surface, and it has not attracted his attention.

In late May, followed by another letter, this time it was a complete annihilation of a Hun thousand people, which made Wang Yun a little surprised, which is a chivalrous man, this is much more powerful than the local Shi clan, the Wang family belongs to the Dashi clan of Taiyuan County, the strength is strong, and it is not able to completely annihilate a Hun thousand people, and there are zero casualties, which makes him a little moved.

Although he still didn't understand the text this time, he wrote it very long, and the introduction of the matter was very verbose and detailed, which gave him a general understanding of the matter.

And his nephew also made up his mind that even if he was no longer an official, he would recommend this chivalrous warrior to be an official, and if the family did not pay for it, he would sell the hundred war horses given by the other party to pay, and if it was not enough, he was willing to give everything he had to pay.

Wang Yun couldn't figure out the determination of the straw bag nephew, how attractive was the other party? can make him so determined, he would rather self-destruct his future to support the other party.

A hundred warlike horses can be sold for at least tens of millions of dollars in the Central Plains, and there is no market for them, and money is hard to find, it only costs one million dollars to buy the position of Loufu county magistrate from the emperor, the county guard of Yanmen County is only five million yuan, and no one in Pingcheng, Mayi and other counties is willing to be the county magistrate even if they don't need money.

It's not that his Wang family doesn't have this money, but that he, Wang Yun, hates this kind of behavior the most and hates dealing with eunuchs the most.

What made him even more embarrassed was that the person recommended this time was changed, and the person who was recommended was unwilling to be the county magistrate; Wang Yun estimated that he must have thought that the position of the county magistrate was too low, and with his talent, it was more than enough to be a county guard.

After thinking about it, he decided that he could not buy an official for him according to the wishes of his nephew, but applied for an official for him in a bright and bright way. How can you impress Your Majesty? This can't help an old fox like Wang Yun.

"The worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world!" "Get on the horse and kill the crazy Hu, and get off the horse to write the army." These two sentences and "Lying in a lonely village does not mourn, Shang Si is the national military wheel." Lying down at night and listening to the wind and rain, the iron horse and the glacier fell into a dream. This poem was carefully written on three pieces of silk, neatly framed, and was ready to be presented to His Majesty on the occasion of the previous dynasty.

May 25th, the morning time.

The Yellow Emperor Liu Hongshan was late, staggering, pale, tired, and languishing.

After the recital, Wang Yun shouted: "Your Majesty, the minister has a gift for Your Majesty!" ”

"Bring it on!" Hearing that there were gifts, the emperor was very happy and immediately refreshed a lot.

Wang Yun handed over the three silk scrolls he had prepared to Xiaohuangmen, who first opened them and checked them before handing them to Emperor Liu Hong.

"This is the book of the royal history?"

"Back to Your Majesty, this is the letter of the minister, but it is not the words of the minister."

"Haha, good sentences, good poems, good spirit!" Liu Hong was in high spirits after seeing it.

The emperor used 3 good ones in succession, which aroused the curiosity of the court officials present.

"I read it to you, and I share it with you. the first, "Get on the horse to kill the crazy Hu, get off the horse and write the army"; How do you feel? Liu Hong thought while reading, if there is really such a talent, why is the border county worried?

Zhang Rang spoke first: "Your Majesty, what a sentence!" ”

Taiwei Yang Ci said: "Your Majesty, this sentence has the legacy of the ancestors!" Very rare. ”

Emperor Liu Hong continued: "The second picture, listen well, "the worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world!" "How about that?"

"Good sentence!"

"I might as well too!"

"The virtue of Confucius and Mencius!"

The court was full of admiration.

Liu Hong said: "The third picture, lying in a lonely village does not mourn, and Shang Si is the national military wheel. Lying down at night and listening to the wind and rain, the iron horse and the glacier fell into a dream. ”

This time, even Situ Yuan Kui couldn't help but admire: "Your Majesty, this poem not only has a far-reaching artistic conception, but also shows its noble character; Just listening to the literal meaning, there is the sound of Jin Ge Iron Horse, and the killing aura rushes towards him, which makes people's blood boil. ”

The emperor asked, "Wang Yushi, who wrote this poem?" ”

Everyone looked at Wang Yun, very curious, and wanted to know the answer.

"Your Majesty, it's a long story!"

"Then you take your time!"

"Yes, Your Majesty. The son of a good family in Yanmen, not to the weak crown, his father died in Hu, his ambition is not falling, the filial piety and loving mother, the younger sister is taken care of, the moral character is noble, and it is spread in the Quartet; Resourceful, strong, alone, killing outside the territory; first kill thousands of barbarians, then save hundreds of Han slaves, and build a team to protect the village with their own strength; first destroyed the plundering Huns 100 people, and then annihilated the attacking barbarians 1,000 people to protect the township from slaughter; Scatter the wealth, sell rice cheaply, build castles, and shelter the villagers; This poem is what he says. ”

Zhang Rang said sarcastically: "It is comparable to the virtue of Confucius and Mencius, the merit of Wei Huo, do you believe it?" ”

Wang Yun said affirmatively: "I believe that there is only one way to pass!" There are many examples, the minister has not exhausted, for example, the construction of the township road, nearly three zhang wide, paved with stone slabs, directly to the county seat, the rain does not accumulate, the snow is not slippery, convenient for the people of the township; building houses and relocating the unhoused; reclaim wasteland and distribute it to the landless; Rescue the barbarian enslaved, exclusively support, adopt widows and children, and live for the rest of their lives; Its wisdom, its bravery, its virtue, its talent, who can compare? I'm not as good as either. ”

Zhang Rang asked again: "With such a pillar of talent, why not recruit him into Beijing?" ”

"In his words, based on the frontier, protect the township! I feel his words, his virtues, and his deeds, so I dedicate his words and poems to His Majesty. ”

Everyone here felt ashamed of him.

Emperor Liu Hong asked: "Wang Yushi, why are you doing this?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister will appoint him as the county guard of Yanmen!"

Zhang Rang shouted: "Bold, the country's heavy weapon, how can it be easily given to people?" ”

"Your Majesty, the land of the border county has been corrupted like this, why not believe the words of the ministers, maybe its powerful power to turn the tide will be the luck of the Han Dynasty and the luck of the border people!"

Taiwei Yang Ci said: "Your Majesty, the minister also received a report from the Taishou of Yanmen County, saying that there are people in his jurisdiction who sell grain at a low price, and high-quality corn is only 300 yuan a stone, which is nearly half lower than before, and there are countless people alive; And the village guard team continued to snipe the Huns on the border, the border was quiet, there seemed to be a trend of homeless people moving back, and guaranteed him to be the county captain, it is estimated that he is the same person as Wang Yushi said. ”

Liu Hong thought to himself, there are only two counties left in Bingzhou, Taiyuan County and Shangdang County, Yanmen County only has half a county left, and Shanggu County and Dai County in Youzhou are all land of dust, no matter how bad it is, how bad can it be?

Zhang Rang's ability to observe words and emotions is quite high, and seeing that the emperor intends to move, he hurriedly stepped forward and suggested: "Your Majesty, before he reached the weak crown, he was high in the position of the county guard, and his growth was not good. ”

Liu Hong thought for a while, yes, this arrangement is better, it can better show the emperor's grace and make him loyal, so he asked: "Which county is appropriate?" ”

"Your Majesty, many counties in Yanmen County have been lost, and Mayi County has been without a county magistrate for a long time, why not make him the magistrate of Mayi County; Outside the barbarians, recovering the lost land, inside the civil administration, Ze was born; Its virtue and talent will be known in the next year; If he has both talent and virtue, it is for His Majesty to know people and make good use of them; If he has nothing to show for himself, he will not lose His Majesty's prestige. ”

Liu Hong thought to himself, this is indeed easy to advance and retreat, so he said: "If you say it well, you will appoint him as the magistrate of Mayi County, and he can make full decisions about the affairs of the county, and the state and county shall not interfere." ”

Wang Yunyan said: "Your Majesty, when the minister invited him to the imperial court, he said that he would base himself on the frontier and defend the township; The minister recommended him as the magistrate of the border county, better contributed to the imperial court, and he insisted on not accepting it because he did not reach the weak crown, and he recommended the captain of the village protection team as the candidate for the county magistrate, and he could assist, so as not to contradict the law of the imperial court. ”

Liu Hong praised: "I am really a loyal and righteous person, I am very happy!" Permit! ”

Wang Yun was very happy, this not only achieved the intention of the nephew of the straw bag clan, but also recommended the talents of the pillars to the imperial court, showing his personal morality, not colluding with the eunuchs, and more importantly, the Wang family can get 100 war horses, which is a priceless treasure.

For Zhang Rang, the small county magistrate of the border county is not yet in his eyes, but his decision, when the appointment is conveyed, must be inspected by Xiaohuangmen.
