Chapter 141: Meng De was right
He Jin's carriage was halfway through and he met Cao Cao.
"Where is the Great General going?"
"Mengde." He Jin greeted happily and said with a smile: "I was about to go to Yuan Benchu's mansion to discuss important matters with him. ”
Cao Cao frowned and asked, "How does the Empress Dowager arrange the matter of the Ten Standing Attendants?" ”
He Jin's face fell, and he said dissatisfiedly: "It's just that I killed a Jianshuo, and the ten permanent servants are all alive and well!" ”
Cao Cao was overjoyed and hurriedly congratulated, "Congratulations to the general, so the military power of Luoyang is in your hands." ”
"Fart!" He Jin scolded: "Although Jian Shuo is dead, the tiger talisman is in Zhao Liu's hands, and he has been busy for a long time!" ”
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked: "The general went to find Yuan Benchu, but it was to discuss the killing of the eunuch?" ”
"Exactly!"
"General, no." Cao Cao hurriedly admonished, and said bitterly: "General, that Zhao Liu is the queen mother's henchman, and he holds the tiger talisman, which is for the queen mother!" If the general takes it by force, I am afraid that he will be the enemy of the queen mother. Moreover, since the Queen Mother killed Jian Shuo today, it will give the general enough face, if the general is aggressive, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will be dissatisfied, so that the disaster will cause Xiao Wall! General, you and the Queen Mother are brothers and sisters, and you must not do things that hurt your relatives and make your enemies happy! ”
He Jin thought about it after hearing this, and it seemed to be the truth. Now that the new emperor has just ascended the throne, if the two brothers and sisters turn their faces, they will give up the good situation.
Cao Cao continued to advise: "General, the top priority is to rectify the hundred officials first, so as not to change. Empress Dowager Dong and King Bohai are both in Luoyang, so they can't give people a chance to take advantage of it. ”
"Oops! If it weren't for Meng De's reminder, I would have almost made a big mistake! He Jin suddenly came to his senses, quickly turned around and went home, and no longer mentioned the killing of the eunuchs.
The next day, the imperial court issued an edict that Guo Yi, the former prince and the prince, was promoted to the prince, doing Shangshu and serving. He paid tribute to Xiangrui, meritorious service, and sealed ten thousand households, and ordered him to set off to return to the dynasty immediately!
Taifu is already the highest honorary title in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and those who can do this are all smoked from the ancestral tomb! The two additional permissions of Shangshu and Shizhong are equivalent to the treatment of the prime minister. If you add 10,000 households, Guo Yi is the only prince with 20,000 households today!
"Refuse!" Guo Yi didn't say a word, and directly wrote a table, saying how he was in Yangzhou, the government affairs were complicated, and the people loved him, so he couldn't leave easily. Official positions, food and euphemia, all wanted. Directly give the text to the imperial envoy and bring it back.
In the Yong'an Palace, the Empress Dowager He and the Empress Dowager Dong were arguing with each other and demonstrating with each other.
Empress Dowager He's meaning is very clear, now that her son is the emperor, her brother is a general, she should listen to politics as the queen mother, and others should be obedient!
Empress Dowager Dong's reasons are even more sufficient, how to say that the world is also her son, and the current emperor is also her grandson, as the empress dowager, she can't rest assured, so she should naturally ask more.
In the end, Empress Dowager He couldn't help it, and directly revealed the old bottom, "You used to be the concubine of a vassal king, but your mother and son are expensive." Now that your son is gone, it's time for you to go back to your fiefdom. You can't be humble and disorderly! ”
Empress Dowager Dong was furious and shouted: "You are a pig killer, and you dare to raise your dignity to me? ”
Empress Dowager He sneered and threatened: "I am kind enough to discuss with you, and it can be regarded as benevolent and righteous." If you don't know how to lift, don't blame me for being rude! The first emperor will be buried soon, if you feel sorry for your son, it is better to accompany him! ”
"Bastard!" The Empress Dowager Dong was about to beat someone, but the ten permanent servants hurriedly came out to stop her, and while admonishing, she pushed the Empress Dowager Dong to go out, so as not to let the contradiction continue to escalate.
When the Empress Dowager Dong returned to the palace, she trembled with anger, and kept cursing the eighteenth generation of the Empress Dowager He's ancestors.
Zhang Rang persuaded: "Don't be angry, the Queen Mother, there is still a way to do this." ”
When Empress Dowager Dong heard this, she was immediately angry, and asked in a low voice, "What's the plan?" ”
Zhang Rang said: "The one who killed the pig has his mother's family, don't you have a mother's family, Queen Mother?" ”
Empress Dowager Dong thoughtfully, "Well......"
The next day, the Empress Dowager Dong listened to the government and named her nephew Dong Zhong as a hussar general and competed with He Jin for power!
Empress Dowager He stomped her feet angrily, but today He Jin was lazy and did not come to the court, and she was far from being the opponent of Empress Dowager Dong in terms of fighting.
At the same time, Guo Yi's resignation was also delivered. The hundred officials are very calm, the five state pastors in the world, and Huang Wan of Yuzhou is an honest man, and he still obeys the orders of the court.
Empress Dowager He was furious, full of anger and burst out on the spot, and scolded Guo Yi for being a wolf-hearted and ungrateful! made the court sigh.
"Ahh Guo Yi rubbed his nose vigorously, feeling as if someone was scolding him. The Yue Ying horse under the crotch walks steadily, strolling by the Chaohu Lake.
"Thousands of miles of fertile land!" Guo Yi pointed to the long dam and lake embankment, which can be regarded as solving the flood problem of Chaohu Lake for many years, and this area will be a high-quality grain producing area in the future.
Gu Yong praised on the side: "This is all the merit of the general. ”
"What merit is, it's just a matter of proportion." Guo Yi laughed, in the final analysis, in ancient times, it was still necessary to rely on more food, and it was difficult for industry and commerce to support the operation of a political regime.
Gu Yong said with emotion: "The floods in Yangzhou have existed since ancient times, if it weren't for the general to come here, I would be afraid that the people would have to suffer, and I am really ashamed." ”
I mean it. Although the family looks down on Guo Yi's background, they admire his ability. In less than a year, they have solved a problem that has not been solved for hundreds of years, and they are really beyond their reach!
Guo Yi didn't care about his words, these scholars and doctors had a common problem: "stubbornness!" They watched with their own eyes that Guo Yi used industry and commerce to save Yangzhou's economy and improve the natural environment. But Guo Yi believed that as soon as his rule left Yangzhou, these scholars would immediately overthrow all these systems!
In their eyes, Shinong industry and commerce are natural hierarchies, and only the natural economy that emphasizes agriculture and suppresses commerce is what a gentleman and a good minister should do! No matter how good the development of industry and commerce is, it is also a miraculous skill, and it is not enough!
"Alright, let's stop here today." After reading the scenery, Guo Yi went home satisfied.
On the way, he saw some people in groups engaged in sacrificial ceremonies, and said strangely: "Lord Gu, which god is this sacrificing?" ”
Gu Yong said respectfully: "General, this is the ancestral hall set up for you by the people of Shu County to thank you for your kindness." ”
"Huh?!" Guo Yi's jaw of surprise is about to drop, ancestral hall? What the hell is this? Quickly ordered: "Tell them, don't mess with these things, I'm just a person." ”
"Yes." Gu Yong instructed his subordinates to dissuade the people.
In order to prevent the people from coming to "chase the stars", Guo Yi hurriedly ran away.
