Chapter 1117: The Xin Family's Allegiance
Lu Bu personally went to Xin's house, which made Xin Ping a little surprised, and at this time, as Lu Bu, the purpose of going to Xin's house made him a little unpredictable.
After taking a seat, Lu Bu said with a smile: "The layout of the Xin family is very elegant, and Ben Hou has been yearning for the head of the Xin family for a long time. ”
Xin Ping arched his hand and said: "I am only shallow in the next generation, why is it worth it for the Marquis of Jin to come to the Xin family in person." ”
"If Zhongzhi can't be called a talent, who can be a talent in Jizhou." Lu Bu said with a smile.
Xin Ping was originally an official under Han Fu's rule, after Jizhou was captured by Yuan Shao, Xin Ping turned to Yuan Shao, the Xin family supported Yuan Tan, Xin Ping did not follow Yuan Shao from Jizhou to leave, it can be seen that the Xin family is unwilling to continue to follow Yuan Shao, if it can get Xin Ping's support, it is extremely beneficial to the rule of Jizhou, which is also the reason why Lu Bu personally went to Xin's house.
"Thanks to the praise of the Marquis of Jin, I am terrified." Xin Ping arched his hand, and in his heart, he had some understanding of Lu Bu's intentions.
During this time, although Xin Ping was closed, he still understood the changes in the situation in Yecheng, he knew that Lu Bu would not let the situation in Jizhou go on like this, and the turmoil in Jizhou was not what Lu Bu wanted to see, the only way was to enable the people of Jizhou, even if the officials transferred from Jizhou arrived in Jizhou, could they make Jizhou stable.
It is imperative to win over the original officials of Jizhou, although Lu Bu did this, but the effect is not very ideal, and it is impossible for Lu Bu to stay in Jizhou all the time, once Lu Bu leaves, what kind of changes will happen in Jizhou.
After all, the power of the family is strong, which Xin Ping deeply understands, once the interests of the family are really touched, the family will show a crazy side, and the most interests of the Han are in the hands of the family.
"I don't know how Zhongzhi thinks of Jizhou at this time." Lu Bu asked lightly.
Xin Ping replied after a moment of hesitation: "Marquis of Jin, Jizhou at this time seems to be stable, but in fact, it is not, the strength of the Jizhou army is beyond doubt, but the strength of the Jizhou family should not be underestimated, if the Marquis of Jin is ready to implement the strategy of merging states in Jizhou, it will be very difficult." Since Lu Bu mentioned it, he was going to say it.
"Oh, it seems that Zhongzhi has no confidence in Benhou." Lu Bu said with a smile.
Xin Ping arched his hand and said: "It's not that I don't have confidence in the Marquis of Jin, but that the family in Jizhou is too powerful." ”
"If Zhongzhi is made the governor of Ji, can you have the confidence to change everything now?" Lu Bu stared at Xin Ping with burning eyes.
Xin Ping was silent when he heard this, deep down in his heart he was unwilling to go on like this, after all, Lu Bu is the lord of Jizhou, and behind Lu Bu, there is a powerful army of Jizhou, if the family wants to get the maximum development, there must be someone in the family who can play a certain role in Jizhou, otherwise, sooner or later it will be embezzled by other families, this truth is eternal.
"I've seen the lord." Xin Ping got up and saluted solemnly, Lu Bu was able to come to Xin's house in person, which is enough to show that Lu Bu attaches great importance to him, although he was reused under Yuan Shao before, but Jizhou has the flow of discipline and trial.
Lu Bu helped Xin Ping up and said: "With Zhongzhi on the side to give advice, Jizhou will definitely be stable." ”
"My lord, in the opinion of my subordinates, it is better to maintain the current situation in Jizhou for the time being." Xin commented.
"Oh, Nakaji is going to be fine." Lu Bu was shocked that in terms of governing the locality, neither he nor Guo Jia was far inferior to the talents in internal affairs, and what he could do was to provide a general direction for the officials under his rule to work hard.
Xin commented: "Presumably, the lord has a certain understanding of the family in Jizhou, their power is intertwined, and it is very difficult to weaken the power of the family fundamentally. ”
"The Xin family is also a family with a lot of strength in Jizhou, right?" Lu Bu asked with a smile.
Xin Ping was a warning in his heart, knowing that this was Lu Bu's treatment of the Xin family, since he chose to stay in Jizhou, it meant that he had given up on Yuan Shao, and after deciding to take refuge in Lu Bu, Xin Ping would try his best to assist, the interests of the family, Xin Ping naturally would not give up, but in Lu Bu's body, Xin Ping felt strong and confident, and following Lu Bu's back, he might be able to create a great achievement.
In the decline of the Han Dynasty, the princes recognized the status of the Han Dynasty on the surface, but in fact it was not, and once their strength reached a certain level, it would have an indelible impact on the rule of the Han Dynasty.
Thinking of Lu Bu, the first word that appeared in Xin Ping's mind was to create a hegemony, and now it seems that Lu Bu is moving forward on this road, as long as the state army maintains its current state, it will definitely be successful.
"The subordinates will do their best to assist the lord to stabilize Jizhou, and the people in the family will also abide by the law and discipline, and if the people in the family violate it, they will not tolerate it." Xin Ping said in a firm tone.
Lu Bu patted Xin Ping's shoulder and said with a smile: "Zhongzhi can have this heart, Benhou is very pleased, if the families in Jizhou can be like Zhongzhi, why can't he be more powerful, if there is a chance, Zhongzhi can go to Bingzhou to take a walk and feel the changes in Bingzhou." Lu Budao.
From Xin Ping's words and determination, Lu Bu can feel that Xin Ping is a person with a strong enterprising spirit, and this kind of character is very self-aware.
After Lu Bu left, Xin Ping fell into a long period of contemplation, and taking refuge in Lu Bu was a huge turning point for the Xin family, perhaps it was strong or it was declining, and he was very clear about the scenes of the Zhou family.
"Summoning the members of the family to come and discuss the matter." Xin Ping ordered.
After leaving the Xin family, Lu Bu's mood was much lighter, and it was definitely an unexpected joy to be able to get Xin Ping's allegiance, originally thinking that the families in Jizhou were all hard bones, and there were still wise people.
Not only does the family have a wrong understanding of Lu Bu, but sometimes Lu Bu's perception of the family is also biased, and the family can stand in the Han Dynasty for many years without falling, there must be a certain reason, and it is a long-term thing to fundamentally change this system.
However, Lu Bu will not change his mind, he wants a really powerful Jizhou, not a powerful Jizhou family, if the decree is not passed, even if he rules Jizhou, it is just managed on behalf of the family, this situation is not allowed by Lu Bu.
If the people don't have land, they may become outlaws, and only when the people are strong can they be truly strong.
