Accompanied by his wife and concubine, Liu Zhang's son didn't know how comfortable it was, but the family under his jurisdiction had eight lifetimes of blood mold. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Jia Xu, since the old fox has made up his mind, it is yin and ruthless, and many ignorant families have been slaughtered. The worst is the Guo family, Feng family, and judge family in Jizhou, because they contacted other princes and framed Zhen Yi, they were slaughtered by Zhang He's troops. Zhang He is also a ruthless person, the dead Taoist friends are not dead and poor, the three families are in his hands, and they are really chickens and dogs! The heads of the three families were killed by Ling Chi, and all the immediate family members were beheaded for public display!

"Well done!" In order to deal with government affairs as soon as possible, Liu Zhang will hold a meeting every day, and when Jia Xu finished reporting the situation in Jizhou, Liu Zhang nodded with great satisfaction! Although he didn't want to persecute Zhang He, he still had to file a name!

"Qi Lord, General Zhang also disbanded the family according to the orders of the lord!" Jia Xu was also very satisfied with Zhang He, otherwise he would have been polite a long time ago. A leading general like Zhang He, Jia Xu will never allow him to rebel, even if he only has the possibility of rebellion!

"Good!" Liu Zhang said: "The herald praises Zhang He and tells him that I will not forget his merits, and I hope he will make persistent efforts!" ”

"Obey the Lord's orders!" Jia Xu bowed down with a smile, he didn't have many tasks, almost all of them were surveillance and investigation, who gave him insight into people's surnames, and was the best at intrigue, intrigue and trickery!

"Fengxiao, is there any movement between Cao Ying and Sun Quan?" When Jia Xu retreated, Liu Zhang immediately looked at Guo Jia.

Guo Jia said with a smile on his face: "Lord Qiqi, it is said that Cao Ying is preparing for the title of duke, but there seem to be many people who oppose it under his rule!" ”

"Cao Ying wants to be a prince?" Liu Zhang laughed and said, "Does he think he is a monolith? Xun Yu should be one of the most opposed people under his command! ”

"What the lord said is true!" Guo Jia said with a smile: "Xun Yu thinks that Cao Ying will have the ambition of not being a minister if he becomes a prince, he hopes that Cao Ying can be the Duke of Zhou, but he doesn't want Cao Ying to be Wang Mang!" ”

Liu Zhang sneered: "Duke Zhou and Wang Mang are just a thin line apart, but I dare to say that Cao Ying is definitely Duke Zhou, not Wang Mang!" Of course, not necessarily his son! ”

Guo Jia said: "Whether Cao Ying is Duke Zhou or Wang Mang has nothing to do with us!" However, we can at least take a break to prepare for the reform! ”

"Well said!" Liu Zhangdao; "Reform is our focus, what about Sun Quan?"

"Sun Quan has already submitted his claim to the Shouchun court!" Guo Jiadao: "It seems that Sun Quan and Cao Ying are officially allied and are ready to join forces to deal with us!" ”

"Teaming up?" Liu Zhang said: "Fengxiao, Sun Quan will not join forces with anyone, including Cao Ying!" If we want to unify the world, maybe it will fall on Sun Quan! ”

"Lord, in today's situation, the best choice is for Sun Cao to join forces to deal with us, Sun Quan won't be so stupid!" Guo Jia seemed a little incredulous, in his opinion, although Sun Quan was a little ruthless, he was still a master!

Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Fengxiao, between countries, there are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests!" I dare to say that as long as our army and Cao Ying are in a stalemate, Sun Quan will definitely sneak attack the rear of Cao's army in order to occupy Cao's territory! ”

"This..."Guo Jia frowned and asked, "Could Sun Quan be so unwise?" ”

"Of course!" Liu Zhang said: "Never ignore Sun Quan's existence, his degree of indelity is no less than that of Wen He!" ”

"Lord, I have nothing to do with Sun Quan, why do you talk about me!" Seeing that Liu Zhang was in a good mood, Jia Xu was also happy to joke, and he protested to Liu Zhang with an unhappy face!

Liu Zhang smiled and asked: "Wen He, back then, I called you Poison Shi and Guo Jia Ghost Cai, and now I also give Sun Quan a title, do you want to know?" ”

"Please also ask the lord for advice!" Liu Zhang's evaluation of people has always been very accurate, and Jia Xu also wants to know his evaluation of Sun Quan!

Liu Zhang did not answer Jia Xu, but asked: "Wenhe, if Sun Quan is called a prince, what title will he use?" ”

"Sun Quan's territory is in Jiangdong, Jiangdong is the land of Wu, and now he is the Marquis of Wu, if he is called a duke, he will naturally be called a duke of Wu!" Jia Xu pinched his short beard, thoughtful.

"Yes, it's such a big centipede, often hidden in the cracks of the stones, but the poisonous surname is very powerful!" Liu Zhang laughed, and everyone couldn't help but laugh.

"Uh..."Jia Xu laughed dumbly: "Lord, this joke is very cold!" ”

"It's hot, tell some cold jokes and let everyone cool off!" Liu Zhang said: "Pay attention to Sun Quan's side, once Sun Quan has any problems, he will mobilize secret agents to provoke the relationship between the two families!" ”

"My subordinates understand!" Guo Jia retreated, he was very good at sowing discord, and he didn't need Liu Zhang's orders.

"Is there anything else you guys are up to?" Scanning everyone, Liu Zhang's eyes flashed with a gleam, in fact, there are not many things to deal with at each meeting, and there are only a few major national affairs. The most important thing in governing the country is to pay attention to the rule of officials, because many things are caused by the impure governance of officials.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke. Now that it is a war, the population has decreased greatly, and Liu Zhang's rule has always been strict with the law, there are really not many big things, and there is no need to talk about small things in the court. Seeing that everyone was fine, Liu Zhang prepared to break the meeting. At this time, I saw Huang Chengyan Shi Ran walking towards the hall!

"Huang Lao, why are you here!" Huang Chengyan is Zhuge Liang's father-in-law, and he is researching equipment and papermaking for himself, and he is also the nominal principal of the school.

"I've seen Qin Gong!" Huang Chengyan has always been very polite, and he will not be proud of Liu Zhang's courtesy.

"Old Huang, why be so polite!" Liu Zhang smiled and hugged Huang Chengyan, he didn't like to be too formal, but he wouldn't force others to be rude.

"Don't waste your courtesy!" Huang Chengyan said with a smile: "I'm just a grass people, how can I not be polite when I see the court officials!" ”

"That's it! I can't talk about you, but let's talk about what's important! Studying etiquette with the old pedant, purely looking for trouble, Liu Zhang immediately changed the topic.

"Gong Qin, the new paper you asked me to study has been successful!" Huang Chengyan didn't want to argue with Liu Zhang about etiquette, and when he saw Liu Zhang asking, he immediately said the purpose of this trip!

"Success?" Liu Zhang laughed and said, "If that's the case, show it to me!" ”

"Don't worry, Duke Qin, the sample is outside the gate of the mansion, without Duke Qin's warrant, the soldiers who carry it cannot enter the door!" Not everyone can enter the Mansion of the Duke of Qin, and Huang Chengyan, as Zhuge Liang's father-in-law, naturally has privileges, which is Liu Zhang's favor for Zhuge Liang. Of course, Huang Yueying also has it, but she doesn't come often!

"When the pawn is full, go to the gate of the house immediately and take the sample!" After Liu Zhang finished giving the order, he took Huang Chengyan's hand and said: "Huang Lao, if it weren't for your help, I really wouldn't be able to make these things, but you have established immortal feats for the Han Dynasty!" ”

"Gong Qin praised it!" Huang Chengyan said with a smile: "Among them, there is also the credit of Mr. Wujiao, and the fourth lady has made a lot of efforts!" ”

"The fourth lady is not only my wife, she is very interested in instruments. In addition to studying Taoism, Mr. Wujiao is even more obsessed with research on equipment and medicine! Only Mr. Huang, who works tirelessly, is completely for the Han people, and this affection is definitely worthy of our admiration! Liu Zhang invited Huang Chengyan to the top position and asked him to sit down, then bowed down and bowed: "Thank you, Mr. Huang!" ”

"Duke Qin doesn't have to be like this!" Huang Chengyan was also very excited, since Liu Zhang asked him to study new paper and printing, he understood the importance and role of these two things. Although Huang Chengyan was also born in a big family, he adhered to the idea of teaching without class, he did not exclude teaching culture to the people, and was a real Confucian.

"Good! No more nonsense! Liu Zhang smiled: "I don't need to say these words of gratitude, everyone in the world will remember you!" Maybe, thousands of years later, no one else will know who I Liu Zhang is, but they can remember you! ”

"Gong Qin has a reputation!" Huang Chengyan smiled and bowed, and Liu Zhang's words made him happy. At this time, Dianman came in with a few pawns and several large boxes.

"Open the box!" Liu Zhang was already a little impatient, and the pawn listened to his instructions, and hurriedly opened the boxes one by one, only to see a pile of white paper placed in the box, very neat. Liu Zhang stretched out his hand and took out a small pile and put it on the desk, and then took out one of them and spread it on the desk.

"What to write?" Holding the brush, Liu Zhangpo was a little hesitant, although he wrote every day, but it was either written on cloth or bamboo slips, and he had not used paper for a long time. Because Cai Lun's bamboo clip paper is brittle and hard, it is really not suitable for writing!

"Gong Qin, just write about Guotai and Min'an!" Huang Chengyan said with a smile: "I hope that the Duke of Qin will pacify the Han Dynasty as soon as possible and return the people to a bright future!" ”

"Good!" Liu Zhang's big pen waved, the four big characters of Guotai Min'an jumped on the paper, the thin gold body is like a knife and an axe, but it has a trace of luxury, plus Liu Zhang is a military general, the words are written vigorously and powerfully, which shows the bearing of it! Putting the pen down, Liu Zhang said a little melancholy: "Good paper, but unfortunately my handwriting is not very good!" ”

"Gong Qin is humble!" Although Huang Chengyan is not a master of calligraphy, he is also erudite and talented, and his understanding of characters is not shallow. Seeing Liu Zhang's words, he couldn't help sighing: "Thin and straight, horizontal drawing with a hook, vertical drawing with a point, skimming like a dagger, like a knife, vertical hook slender, as if a knife cutting an axe chisel, good words, really good words!" ”

"It's a good word, and I was fascinated when I first saw it!" As soon as Huang Chengyan's words fell, an old man walked in, it turned out to be Cai Yong!

"Father-in-law, you're here too!" Liu Zhang smiled: "I'll introduce you, this is..."

"Huang Chengyan, how can I not know him!" Cai Yong laughed and said: "Lao Huang, when His Majesty recruited you into Beijing, you refused. I thought I would never see you again in this life, but I didn't expect you to actually do things for my son-in-law! ”

"Brother Bojie, don't come to harm!" Huang Chengyan said with a smile: "In the past, we studied under the teacher's seat, and we already admired Brother Bojie very much, and now Brother Bojie is even more enviable!" Such a good son-in-law, others can't ask for it! ”

"Chengyan's son-in-law is known as Wolong, and even my son-in-law admires it, isn't it even more enviable?" Cai Yong said with a smile on his face: "What makes me even more envious is that you have a good daughter!" ”

"Where, where!" Huang Chengyan said: "My daughter, she likes to do carpentry, knitting female red is very reluctant, how can it be like your daughter is versatile, I heard that many people call Zhao Ji Cai everyone!" ”

"I'll set up a table banquet in a while, let the second elder slowly catch up, and take a look at what Huang Lao brought first!" Seeing that the two old men were a little unstoppable, Liu Zhang hurriedly diverted their attention, and Cai Yong looked up and saw the words on the case.

"Good word!" Cai Yong is a well-known calligrapher, and when he saw Liu Zhang's handwriting, he couldn't help but sigh: "Over the years, everyone only knows that the virtuous son-in-law is a military general, but they have forgotten that you are also my student." The more you write, the better! ”

"Father-in-law's praise!" Liu Zhang smiled: "The handwriting is good because the paper is good!" Father-in-law, see if you can make a book out of these papers! ”

"This paper..."Twisting up a piece of paper, Cai Yong trembled, and then folded it a few times, he exclaimed: "Soft, delicate, snow-white, it looks like cloth, good paper, really good paper!" Is this paper newly made? ”

"Exactly!" Liu Zhang said: "Thanks to Huang Lao, otherwise I don't know when these papers will be made, everyone will come and see!" ”

With Liu Zhang's greeting, everyone present rolled up a piece of paper. Looking at the white paper, Tian Feng, who spoke out against it at the beginning, burst into tears. What could be more appealing to the literati than books and paper? Of course, there are many people who are calm rather than excited.

"Lord, this paper is comparable to cloth, how much does it cost, and is it suitable for large-scale manufacturing?" The calmest person is none other than Jia Xu, and the questions he raised also calmed everyone's excitement a little.

"This question, please ask Mr. Huang to answer!" Looking at Huang Chengyan, Liu Zhang was full of smiles. He disdains to do things that are greedy for heavenly merit.

"Actually, that's not what I should answer!" Huang Chengyan said with a smile: "Why don't you ask the paper-making people under the command of Duke Qin to explain to you?" ”

"Papermakers?" Liu Zhang said: "Is there still such a person under my command?" That's a real thing to see! ”

Huang Chengyan said: "Qin Gong doesn't know, this time he can make such a good paper, thanks to one person!" This person had actually improved the paper, but when he heard that Qin Gong was also improving the paper, he volunteered to join our research. It turns out that he does know a lot about papermaking and has a lot of experience in papermaking! ”

"Isn't this person Uncle Zuo?" Cai Yong is good at writing, and every time a good paper appears, he will not be missing. As soon as he heard about the improved paper, he remembered Zuo Bo.

"That's the man!" Huang Chengyan said: "I wanted to recommend him to Duke Qin, but he had to make some achievements before he was willing to see Duke Qin." Now that the new paper has been made, it is time for him to meet Qin Gong! ”

"Hurry up, please!" Although Zuo Bo's reputation in papermaking is not as good as Cai Lun, he is also a generation of famous papermakers. Liu Zhang knew this person, but he didn't know that he was from that dynasty. Now, hearing that Uncle Zuo is under his command, Liu Zhang is overjoyed! With a papermaking expert to manage papermaking, Liu Zhang no longer has to worry about paper!
