The next day, Cao Pi and Cao Zhang bid farewell to Xiahoudun and returned to Xudu with their captives. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

After handing over the captives to Xiahou Yuan, Cao Pi and Cao Zhang went back to the house to visit the old lady Bian, Bian saw his two good sons go home, naturally very happy, and asked Cao Pi to go back to see his wife after asking for warmth, and Cao Zhang told Bian that he had found a new maid, and Bian was very satisfied with Ji Yue, so he sent an old maid around Cao Zhang to marry and fill her position with Ji Yue.

The two of them returned to the army and needed to report to Xun Yu, who was in charge of the overall situation, but because Cao Pi was in a hurry to go home to see his wife, Cao Zhang could only go alone, and after seeing Xun Yu, Cao Zhang found that there was one more person beside him, a young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old, tall, handsome, and outstanding temperament, and should be a new subordinate official of Sikong Mansion.

Whether it is the three dukes in the imperial court, or the generals, they can open the government and place subordinate officials, and the middle leader in the army, the middle guard army can appoint and dismiss other Sima on their own, but now there is no such high degree of freedom of military command in the Cao army, basically Shi Lianyu bans this kind of battalion governor, they command other Sima Min, but they do not have the right to appoint and dismiss.

As for the magistrates, they can appoint and dismiss subordinate officials within the government, but the lieutenants and generals who are stationed in the localities are not under their jurisdiction, and local officials such as Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, Li Dian, and Chen Deng are cronies who belong to the military and government, and the situation is different.

Cao Cao's previous official position in the imperial court was Sikong, so Sikong Mansion has the right to recruit subordinate officials, and this important task has always been done by Xun Yu, but to Cao Zhang's surprise, no matter who Xun Yu recruits, he will not take him with him, obviously the young man who is standing next to Xun Yu now is very valued by Xun Yu.

Xun Yu saw Cao Zhang's hands slightly shaken, because now he is Shang Shuling, he is a member of the court, and his official position is much higher than Cao Zhang, and when he saw Cao Zhang, he saluted completely because he was Cao Cao's son, purely because of face, after Cao Zhang returned the salute, the young man next to Xun Yu sang a big promise to Cao Zhang: "Sikong Xi Cao Peng's family, Yingchuan Chen Qun visited the third son." ”

“。。。。。” This kid is Chen Qun? The founder of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system? The guy who makes the power of the world expand indefinitely? Cao Zhang immediately labeled him in his heart, but on the surface, he replied politely: "It turned out to be a descendant of the Chen family of the Yingchuan clan, and I have admired him for a long time." ”

Chen Qun obviously did not have much restraint because he and Xun Yu were world friends, and when he heard Cao Zhang's compliment, he immediately said: "The group has also admired the third prince for a long time, and I heard Brother Wen Ruo mention that the third prince divided the world into three categories: 'Dingguo', 'stealing the country' and 'plundering the country'. As he spoke, his face was full of excitement.

“？？？？？？” What's wrong with this guy? Cao Zhang secretly wondered why Chen Qun had such a big reaction.

glanced at Xun Yu, saw him smiling and silent, and let Chen Qun speak, Cao Zhang said suspiciously: "Sir, Zhang is just saying what he thinks in his heart, and he is really ashamed to be a great talent who helps the world." ”

Chen Qun immediately waved his hand and said: "The third prince is too modest, I and Brother Wen Ruo were born in Yingchuan, and they boast of being a family, but in fact, it is just because our family motto is rigorous, and the Qing Dynasty has the respect of the villagers, not to mention the Runan Yuan family and the Hongnong Yang family, even if it is inferior to the Sima clan in Hanoi, and we will not manipulate the bandits as a disaster, and Yuan, Yang, and Sima are not the same kind of family at all, but they are often compared with it, and when the world collapses, they also envy Yuan, and the Yang family's four generations and three princes are proud of the family, and they take this as an example, It is a shame to regard the family of plundering the country as the basis of envy, if it is not for the three sons of the clan, I am afraid that many scholars will go astray, seek fame and turn their own family into a family of plundering the country. ”

Cao Zhang heard Chen Qun's words and immediately changed his opinion, it seems that he is not a person who admits death, on the contrary, he is a person who knows how to be flexible, and has the style of a gentleman, the Han Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty followed Dong Zhongshu's theory of "divine authority of the monarch", and secretly practiced the concept of legalism to govern the country, so although the late Han dynasty had a prosperous appearance, it was just a beginning, many scholars were influenced by hundreds of years of loyalty and patriotism, and they could not resist the big hat of stealing the country and plundering the country.

Cao Zhang just explained that Xun Yu said these words that day, but he didn't think that the children of the family liked to talk about current affairs when they had nothing to do, thinking that these words had already reached the ears of the world's scholars, and there would undoubtedly be two reactions when they heard it, one was like Chen Qun, seriously reflecting, whether the Yang family and the Yuan family would cause national chaos, as long as you think about it, you will know the answer, the fact that Yuan Shu is the emperor is in front of you, and they will think when they get the conclusion, so do you want to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, or do you want to be the emperor yourself? That's the problem.

The hundreds of years of Confucianism in the Han Dynasty were still deeply ingrained in the hearts of most scholars, so they would, like Chen Qun, wipe out the nascent ethnic thinking.

Another kind of reflection is not easy to say, those who have vested interests, that is, the so-called first people to eat crabs, such as Yuan Shao who raised troops, and the Yang family and Sima family who manipulated bandits to obtain benefits, they heard such theories and labels, and their reactions will be completely different, whether it is stealing the country or chaotic the country, they have really gained great benefits.

Yuan Shao is a good example, dominating one side, the Yang family is rich in the world, and the Sima family is dominant in Hanoi, as if you get a huge amount of money, you will not hand it over because of a word from others.

So their reaction is difficult to predict, now the battle between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is the world's attention, the Yang family and the Sima family are all putting chips on Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao is defeated, I am afraid that they will take action, as for how to act, Cao Zhang does not know, the Yang family still has Yang Feng to monitor, but the Sima family is kind to Cao Cao, this is a hot potato, how to solve it, you have to find another way.

Scholars who heard Cao Zhang's theory of "three clans" have Chen Qun's reflection, and they all have a commonality, that is, the family that has not accumulated much resources, whether it is the Zhong family where Zhong Xuan is located, the Xun family where Xun Yu is located, and the Chen family where Chen Qun is located, they all began to make a fortune within four generations, and they are known for their article learning.

And families like the Yuan family and the Yang family, who have been high-ranking officials for many generations and have gained great benefits, will not think so, they will want to be the emperor like Yuan Shu, or dominate a place to be the overlord of the soil, and appoint and dismiss officials as they like, and the fish and meat towns, including the Sima family in Hanoi, are also such families.

Sima Shi had a big official when he was Emperor An of the Han Dynasty, Sima Jun, the general of Zhengxi, and then gave birth to a son who was Yuzhang Taishou Sima Liang, and then another son Yingchuan Taishou Sima Jun, and then gave birth to a son Jingzhao Yin Sima Fang, that is, Sima Yi's Laozi, this family produced a general within four generations, two Taishou, and then a Jingzhao Yin.

Jing Zhao Yin in the Han Dynasty and Zuo Feng Yi and Right Fufeng were known as 'Three Du Sitting', which means that in the Shang Dynasty, these three officials had separate positions, their status was below the Three Dukes, above Jiuqing, they belonged to the provincial high-ranking officials, and they were also the family of Zheng Miaohong, so they were not surprised at all with the Yang family and the Yuan family.

The greater the power, the greater the boldness, the Yuan family, the Yang family, and the Sima family have gained great benefits, so they will naturally not give up, but the Zhong family, the Xun family, and the Chen family, which only made their fortunes in the last three generations, do not have the courage, so when Cao Zhang and Xun Yu said that, Xun Yu was easily persuaded, including the current Chen Qun, who was also indirectly persuaded.

Cao Zhang didn't expect that his words would make the world's clans return to their respective positions, and the impact of these words on the history at that time was only worse than killing Liu Bei.

Chen Qun is still talking, and Cao Zhang is already speculating about Sima Yi, how will Yang Biao react when he hears these words, and immediately follow Yuan Shao to rebel? Or how?
