Chapter 80: The Four Prefectures of the North
Who is Yan Zhong?
Speaking of which, Yan Zhong is also a bit famous, he is a famous person in Liangzhou, especially good at observing people. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Jia Xu was not famous when he was young, only Yan Zhong was different, saying that Jia Xu had the talents of Zhang Liang and Chen Ping.
In addition to being good at recognizing people, this person also has a unique judgment on the general trend of the world, after Huangfu Song pacified the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Yan Zhong persuaded him to take the opportunity to coup d'Γ©tat, Huangfu Song did not obey and fled.
In the sixth year of Zhongping, the rebel kingdom of Liangzhou was defeated, and Han Sui and others robbed Yan Zhong as the commander, but Yan Zhong did not obey and died of resentment.
It can be seen from historical records that this person has no loyalty to the Han Dynasty, but he has a set of people who know people, and he knows that Han Sui and others cannot be long, and he would rather die than obey, which can be seen.
A few people exchanged a few words, because Wang Yue was not there, Su Chen wanted to say goodbye and visit him another day, but he never thought that Yan Zhong stopped him and said: "Why did Master Hou leave in a hurry, if you don't give up, you might as well move to the inner courtyard and have a few drinks together?" β
"I don't dare to ask for ears!"
Moved to the inner courtyard, Shi A did not follow, under his signal, Guan Yu and Xu Huang also stopped, arrived at a pavilion, and after the other party sat down, he sat down.
After a while, a servant served the wine and food, pushed the glass and changed the lamp, and after a while, he put down the wine glass and asked, "I don't know what advice the gentleman has?" β
When Yan Zhong heard this, he also put down his chopsticks, and said with a smile: "Hou Ye has done such a big thing in the north now, and the eyes inside and outside the court are focused on Hou Ye, I don't know what Hou Ye has planned?" β
"Intended?" Su Chen thought about it, his plan was nothing more than "build a high wall, accumulate grain, and not be the king", but this kind of idea could not be told to a person he met for the first time, so he had to excuse himself: "So that Mr. learned that Su Chen was lucky to have some slight merits, and was valued by His Majesty the Emperor, and was awarded the post of captain of Wuhuan, Su Chen felt that his talent was shallow and not enough to be competent, so he had the intention to find a talented person to complement him, just to fulfill his duties and repay the emperor's kindness." β
"Oh?" These words made Yan Zhong's eyes light up, he never thought that the other party was not very old, but his mind was not small, he naturally didn't believe these superficial words, but the ambition hidden behind the words made him a little aware of it.
Especially in the last half of this section, looking for the assistance of talented people, I am afraid this is his real purpose, the whole world is not the king's land, the shore of the land is not the king's ministers, the Han and the family share the world, the implementation is filial piety and the inspection system, of course, officials can recruit talents, govern the place.
However, most of these measures will only be implemented by a county Taishou, or a party assassin history, and the captain of the Wuhuan Guard is just an official with a rank of two thousand stones, which is a bit far-fetched.
Since this is the case, then it is not difficult to guess his intentions, I think it is also to see that this building will fall, and the layout is just in advance, not to mention that the other party has developed a small family in the border area into a medium-sized family in just a few years, if he is said to be a person without ambition, then he Yan Zhong will no longer need to say that he has the knowledge of people.
Ambitious, talented, and even more rare, there is also a good background, although the Su family is only a border family, but Su Chen, as Cai Yong's son-in-law, has been recognized by Shilin, plus he has made a great contribution like sealing the wolf, and he is famous all over the world, which can be described as a hidden dragon in the abyss.
Isn't this kind of lord what he Yan Zhong is looking for? Moreover, there is also the recognition of the Nine Dragons Treasure Mirror, so the last trace of hesitation in my heart has also been blown away.
Thinking of this, I only heard him say: "Hou Ye is modest, he has become a great business since ancient times, he is not a person with perseverance and tenacity, great talent, great wisdom, Hou Ye wants to recruit capable people to complement him, but Yan Zhong Mao recommended himself, and asked Hou Ye to ask." β
"Oh? What does Mr. Yan mean by this? "He never thinks that he has any domineering spirit, the famous generals and ministers bow their heads, Yan Zhong's words are already a little out of line, fortunately, except for the two of them here, there is not even a single fly, so there is no need to worry about being reported.
The words are not clear, the lights are not lit, Yan Zhong has the heart to worship him as the master, but at the same time, he also wants to make the other party realize his talent, immediately stood up, looked at the north from afar, and said slowly: "Master Hou, you are a weak crown in the year, you are a wolf, and your reputation is spread all over the sea. β
"Don't talk about it far away, let's just say that the great sage and good teacher, the millions of people under his command, once the slightest disobedience, it will inevitably lead to a monstrous disaster, when Kyushu is eroded, the mountains and rivers are broken, the eyes are full of devastation, and the lives are ruined, only in the evening."
"However, the so-called hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, even if it transforms into elbows and armpits, the court still has the strength to extinguish this fusion, but in this way, it is bound to rely on the power of the family to form a big tail and not fall off, and at this time, it has become a stage for careerists."
"Hou Ye rose in Wuyuan, deep-rooted, as long as you ascend and shout, gather the shadows, you can collect the entire nine counties of Bingzhou in an instant, and then the sharp north point, directly take You, Yan, the people who defend the land, will be captured, Yaowu grassland, coercing Rong Di, and the Huns Wuhuan will only bow down to the vassals."
"Sweep north of the Yellow River, integrate the territory of the four states, collect the world's talents, command a million male soldiers, and then command the world in the name of the imperial court, and conquer those rebels and rebellious ministers who refuse to return, so as to win the battle, and look at the world who is worthy of the enemy!!"
The more Yan Zhong spoke, the more excited he became, as if the entire mountains and rivers were only between his backhand, Su Chen also heard the stirring in his heart, if it weren't for the sentence "Go west to Chang'an to restore the temple, and return to Luoyang east to welcome the Son of Heaven", he would almost suspect that this person is also a crosser.
The authorities are obsessed with bystanders, Su Chen is a person of later generations, and naturally knows that the Yellow Turban is in turmoil, the world is full of heroes, and there are many heroes in the north, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and the like, abound.
Isn't this dominance of the four northern states exactly Yuan Shao's plot later, but with Su Chen coming in this life, the competition in the north will only become more intense.
These rebellious words, if they spread, even Shi Yinglou would not be able to withstand the anger of the imperial court, not to mention that there are countless families who are fueling the troubles, but fortunately, there is no one else here except for the two of them.
"Sir, drunk!"
Yan Zhong's words, he didn't dare to take them, even though he knew that the other party was not testing him, he still didn't dare to take them, and he wouldn't let anyone know what he really thought in his heart, because it was not only about him alone, but also about the family behind him, and the group of followers behind him.
There are some things that can be done but not said, some things that can be said and cannot be done, obviously what Yan Zhong said is the former, these things, he will do, and he has been doing them, but he never says them back, and he will not say them to anyone.
"Hahahaha." Yan Zhong laughed a few times, lifted the wine glass on the table, drank it all, and said with a smile: "Yes, a certain is drunk, he can show his mind with Hou Ye, if the wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk, and he is indeed drunk!" β
Su Chen didn't refute his words, nor did he say anything high-sounding, obviously accepting him in his heart, his long-cherished wish came true, Yan Zhong was really drunk.
In the end, Su Chen couldn't help but ask, "Why did Mr. identify me?" β
Yan Zhong stumbled to his feet, shook his head, and did not speak, he was not an ordinary literati, but a literary cultivator, but at this time he was still a little overwhelmed, waved his hand and left the pavilion.
"What a strange man!" Looking at Yan Zhong's back, Su Chen felt that this trip was worthwhile, and after a little understanding, he knew that Yan Zhong's ability was to know people, and this person had a strategic mind, which could be described as timely rain for him now.
Each Wen Xiu has his own unique ability, similar to Guo Wen's mastery of the magic circle, and Yan Zhong's ability lies in foresight, he can see that the Han Dynasty is already the momentum of the building, and he does have some ability, such a person, even if it is placed on any side of the force, it is also a great existence.
No wonder the Hero Building has been able to develop to this scale in just over ten years, this person has contributed a lot, but I don't know what Wang Yue's expression would be if he knew that he had abducted the chief steward of the Hero Building.
It was getting late, the three of them didn't go back, and stayed directly in the Hero Building, and the next day, he found Yan Zhong and inquired about the whereabouts of Dian Wei, Huang Zhong and Ju Yi.
Since he had already decided that Su Chen was his master, Yan Zhong consciously put his position in the position of a strategist, and said: "Master Hou, Elder Dian is now the elder of the Hero Building, and he was sent out by the owner of the building to carry out a mission, and he will not return in a short time. β
"Well, Master, I'll go and probe when he comes back, and you can tell me about the other two!" For Dian Wei, although he is determined to win, since the other party is already the Elder Keqing of the Hero Building, he is not in a hurry, if he can let Master Wang Yue come forward, he will get twice the result with half the effort.
"Hmm!" nodded in his eyes, agreed with his approach, and continued: "As for Huang Zhong, the purpose of his three levels is to treat his son, his young son is suffering from sepsis, and the landlord can't help it after seeing it, and finally he is missing, and it is not easy for the Hou Ye to find his news, unless he ......"
"Unless what?" If only there was a way, he thought to himself.
"Unless Master Hou can treat this sepsis, the Hero Building has some strength in various states, as long as this news is released, I believe Huang Zhong will take the initiative to come to the door." Speaking of this, Yan Zhong also frowned, after all, sepsis is not so easy to treat.
I thought that the family in Luoyang tried their best to win over Huang Zhong, and in the end he only made one request, who could cure his son's illness, he was willing to serve him, at that time, the person who shot was like a carp crossing the river, but no one succeeded, Huang Zhong also secretly left Luoyang, nowhere to be found.
"Sepsis?" Hearing that it was actually this disease, he couldn't help frowning, it seemed that it would not be easy to treat sepsis in the future life, let alone two thousand years ago, could he really miss out on this legendary level fierce general?
