Listening to Wen Chou's words, Xu Rong's ecstasy surged into his heart

He was like an old scalper in Luancheng County for many years, and he had a hard time, but he didn't expect to fall into the eyes of Wen Chou, and he was promoted to lieutenant in the history of the room, he forced himself to calm down, bowed down again, and said: "You have to be selected for the lieutenant, the glory of this afternoon, how dare you refuse?" It's only noon that can be low-explosive, I'm afraid it can't be as the lieutenant wants."

"Although I don't know all about your talents, I also know a thing or two, don't worry, you will be as good as I want," Wen Chou laughed

"At noon, Ren Su Renting is half a moon, and when he leaves at noon, I don't know if Yao Ling can choose to take over at noon?"

Although he had to be promoted, he still did not forget his old position, Wen Chou, who admired Xu Rong's sense of responsibility, and said with a smile: "Yao Ling has been chosen" Li Fen's chosen successor to Xu Rong was in the team, Li Xuan went to call him over and meet Xu Rong

Everyone stayed in the Suren Pavilion this night, Xu Rong finished making friends with the pavilion chief who took over overnight, and the next day he took the more than 20 Luancheng teenagers who followed him to join Wen Chou's team, and then went south

There were many people who came back and accompanied them, most of them walked, and they didn't walk, but they walked for two days and arrived at Deshiyi

Wen Chou ordered everyone to stop outside the county, took Xun Yu Yuan's Rong, Xu Rong, and Li Xuan, and personally entered the county to find Cen Zhu

Found Cen Zhu's home, Cen Zhu and his mother went out to greet him

Cen Zhu's family is very poor, the earthen house has a leaky roof, and the fence covers the house, and there are only rough seats in the house, and there are no household items

Wen Chou sighed: "'A spoonful of food, a scoop of drink, in the alleys, people are unbearable, and they will not change their pleasures'"

But he compared Cen Zhu to a wise man like Yan Hui

He said to Cen Zhu's mother: "There is a virtuous mother, there is a virtuous mother, and a virtuous mother is also; Cen Jun, the Magi is also ugly by the grace of God, and he is the lieutenant of Guijun, and he knows that he is eager for the help of the Magi, and he is a high line of mother. With the virtue of Cen Jun, I am sweeping the door for my mother's house, I am afraid that I will insult my mother and Cen Jun's high virtue, but because of the thirst for virtue, I took the liberty to come to the door, and asked Cen Jun to be the lieutenant's master of the history"

Cen Zhu's mother is only in her 40s this year. She has been in charge of household affairs all year round, her hair has turned gray, and the years have left layers of wrinkles on her forehead and the corners of her eyes, she is not tall, and she kneels on the mat, her waist is straight

She looked at Wen Chou carefully, first looked at Wen Chou's sitting posture, then looked at his clothes, then looked at his appearance, and then looked at Xun Yu, Yuan, Rong, Xu Rong, Li Xuan, and others who were standing in the courtyard. said: "Zhu Zui is clumsy, long and talented, but he knows 'loyalty and filial piety', and he may not be able to help you in other places, but as long as you have a will, he can also complete it for you if you give up your life."

This is a promise to let Cen Zhu come out and be a subordinate of Wen Chou

Wen Chou was overjoyed. said: "I know that my mother is poor and happy, and there is the festival of Yuan Xian Boyi." But the mother only has one son, Cen Jun, as soon as Cen Jun goes to the Yuan family, only the mother is at home, and the people support Cen Jun in front of the knee, and the filial son also makes the filial son leave home, and he can't be filial to his mother. If you agree to this benevolent place, you can come to the Yuan clan with Cen Jun, and I should buy a house for my mother to live in peace."

Cen Zhu's mother said: "Filial piety at home, loyalty to serve parents at home, and convenience for my legs and feet to serve the lord when I go out." Enough to take care of himself, Yuan Shi will not go to the lieutenant's kindness, I thank you very much" declined Wen Chou's invitation

That night, Wen Chou and the others stayed outside the county for one night, and the next morning, Wen Chou took Cen Zhu and others back to Yuanshi

On the way back to Yuanshi, Wen Chou heard the news that Liu Xu, the king of Anping in Jizhou, was sentenced for "not doing it" and was expelled from the country

This Liu Xu, the king of Anping, is the Liu Xu who was captured by Montenegro a few months ago and then ransomed by the imperial court

Hearing this news, Wen Chou and Xun Yu looked at each other with joy, and their first reaction was: "Li Gong can get away with it!" ”

Li Gong, that is, the aforementioned Li Guzhi Li Xie

After the imperial court redeemed Liu Xu, it was agreed to restore his country, and Li Guzhi, who was then the minister of Anping, said: "Liu Xu has no government in the country, is captured by demon thieves, guards the feudal domain, and humiliates the holy dynasty", thinking that "it is not suitable to restore the country", but Liu Xu was not accepted by the imperial court to restore the country, Li Xie was instead accused of "slandering the clan" and "losing to be the left school" is a punishment for criminal officials in this dynasty, Zuo Xing will be a subordinate institution of the master craftsman, mainly responsible for the engineering work of the Beijing Division, and losing to the left school is to serve as a laborer

Now Liu Xu has been punished for "not being reasonable", "not being reasonable" mainly refers to the crime of "going against the rules", the so-called "going against the rules", that is, what Li Xie said about "having no government in the country", since Li Xie's performance is correct, then his crime will definitely be exempted

Xun Yu was very happy, and the crown was celebrated

He is so happy, but it is because Li Xie and the Xun family have an old relationship, and they can be regarded as the elders of him and Wen Chou

In the early years, Xun Shuang and Jia Biao of the same county were both famous in the state and county, Xun Shuang was gentle and introverted, Jia Biao Yuanhao was generous, the two had incompatible personalities, but they were not harmonious with each other, Li Xie and he were both in a relationship at the same time, "love is not suitable, and the world is known as its fairness"

Li Xie is not only friends with Xun Shuang, but of course he is the elder of Wen Chou Xun Yu

As Wen Chou Xun Yu expected, half a day later, they heard another news when they entered the Yuan clan: Li Xie was worshiped as a speaker

Along with this news, there is also a new proverb made up by Master Jing: "My father refuses to establish an emperor and a king."

What he said about refusing to establish the king was that Li Xie opposed Liu Xu's restoration of the country, and what his father refused to say was that after the emperor was killed by Liang Ji, Li Gu resolutely opposed Liang Ji to establish Liwu Marquis as the emperor Li Gu and Li Xie's father were convicted and Li Gu died in prison, Li Xie's luck was better, and he was used by the imperial court

Xun Yu smiled and said to Wen Chou: "Li Gong is exonerated from his crimes, and the court worships him as a councilor, and he must be of great use again in the near future, and this happy event should also be congratulated by Wei Wei."

Yilang is a transitional position, and with Li Xie's family background and reputation, it shouldn't be long before he can make another 2,000 stones

Wen Chou thought so

Although the Xun family is a famous family in the world, because of the party, the clan now has no eunuchs, and the old friends are scattered, for Wen Chou, he is now extremely short of the help of the ministers and local governors to help him said: "I heard that Yin Xiu was worshiped by the imperial court not long ago as a master craftsman, and since the twelfth secretary went on the expedition, I haven't written to him for a long time, and this time I should write a letter to him as a former official."

Will be a master craftsman is not Qing, but only a little lower than Qing, and the ruling Jinwu Da Changqiu together with Qing was called the "Twelve Qing" by the people of the time according to the story of the Han family, will be a master craftsman and then move up is Qing

Wen Chou started as the head of the Shahe Pavilion when Yin Xiu just arrived in Yingchuan as the Taishou, it was Yin Xiu who promoted him to be the Xixiang Rank Qiangfu, and promoted him to be the post supervisor in the north of the county, he is the "Yin Xiu old official"

After Yin Xiu left Yingchuan, he wrote letters and sent gifts to Yin Xiu every once in a while, and the gifts were still exchanged. Yin Xiu also often replied to him after the Black Mountain Rebellion, he was busy with the army, but he had not been in contact with Yin Xiu for more than half a year, and now he was promoted to more than 2,000 stones, Yin Xiu must know about it in the court, he should write a letter to send it, thank Yin Xiu for his "grace of knowledge" back then

There is the identity of "old officials". With some effort, Yin cultivation is very likely to become his help in the court

In the past, when he was a county official, there was no one in the court who had little influence on him, and now he is the captain of Changshan, and there must be someone in the court Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are separated by a layer after all, even if Cao Cao is inclined to each other, he can't rely on Cao Yuan all, he has to have a way in the court, and Yin Xiu is an excellent candidate

In three ways: first. From the point of view of close relationship, Yin Xiu is not only his former chief, Yin and Xun are in-laws, secondly, from Yin Xiu's family background, Yin is the Nanyang crown family, in the Ming Emperor and Fan Guo Ma three surnames and called "four little marquis", is the famous family of relatives in this dynasty, there have been two queens in the clan. One is Yin Lihua, the empress of Emperor Guangwu, and the other is Yin, the empress of Emperor He. After the revival, the Yin clan people came out of the rank of officials and held a high position of many people, although the disaster has been suffered, but now it has been revived, even if it is difficult to compare with the dignity of the past, but compared to the Xunchen clan is also much stronger again. From Yin Xiu himself, he has a good reputation, and he is now one of the twelve kings, a noble position, enough to help Wen Chou

Wen Chou thought again: "Runan is too protective of Zhao Qian. As soon as Runan said goodbye, and there has been no news for months, I should also write a letter to him, greetings."

Zhao Qian's father, Zhao Dian, raised Xun Shuang as filial piety when he was in Taichang's office in Yanxi year, and Xun Shuang was worshiped as Lang Zhao Dian is Xun

Before Shuang's main Wen Chou attacked Runan from Huangfu Song, Xun Shuang had asked Wen Chou to help Zhao Qian Zhao Qian's future career Wen Chou is not clear, but only by virtue of his family background and his younger brother's name Zhao Wen, it is worth Wen Chou to maintain a good relationship with him

In the family lineage, Zhao Qian's grandfather Li Shi An Shun Chong Qianhuan Five Emperors, in the Shun Chong Qianhuan Shi Shi Sangong, his father Zhao Dian served as the secretary of the Emperor Huan and his younger brother Zhao Wen in the early years of the dynasty, Wen Chou vaguely remembered that after Dong Zhuo's chaos, he should have been the third prince several times, Wen Chou didn't know that Zhao Qian also served as the third prince twice after Dong Zhuo's chaos

He thought again: "And Li Zhan, I heard that he was used by the imperial court a few months ago, and I should also write a letter to him to worship him as the prime minister of Dongping."

Li Zan is the current parent of the Li family in Xiangxian County, Li Xuan's father, Li Ying's Li Ying's teacher Xun Shu, Xun Shuang and the younger generation of Li Ying and Li Xun's two families are the old friend Wen Chou for the northern part of Yingchuan County when he was the post governor of Li Zhan's son Li Xuanding, this spring he hit the wave when He Man and got Li Zhan's father Li Xuan's strong assistance after the party was relieved, the fathers, brothers and nephews of the party members who were imprisoned in the past were mostly requisitioned by the imperial court, Li Zan because of his father's name, he was worshiped as the Dongping Xiang of 2,000 stones

Li Zhan's future career is unknown, but just like Zhao Qian, just based on his current conditions: Li Yingzhi is good friends with Zhang Miao, and Yuan Shao is his son Li Xuan's maternal relative, so it is completely worthy of Wen Chou to keep in touch with him

Counting it carefully, there are still a few ministers and local governors who can catch up with Wen Chou and famous ministers in the future, not to mention the younger generation such as Xun Yu and Zhong Xuan, in addition to Yin Xiu Zhao Qian and Li Zhan, there are also Wang Yun Kong Rong, and he has already written a letter to Wang Yun Kong Rong, so Xun Cheng Chen Bao sent it along the way

He said from the bottom of his heart: "Thanks to the 'Xun Clan', I can get to know these people."

Yin Xiu, Zhao Qian, and Li Zan are more or less related to the Xun family

Nanyang Yin and Yingchuan Xun are in-laws, Zhao Qian's father is Xun Shuang's master, Li Zhan's father, Li Ying's teacher, Xun Shuwen Chou, and can't help but think: "This is still after the party, if there is no party, I can get more help through the Xun family now."

What is the state and county family, this is the state and county family

Through various means such as marriages, protégés and protégés, scholars and doctors are close to each other and praise each other, forming an intricate relationship between you and me, I have you, and firmly control the public opinion that occupies Shilin and the road to the upper echelons of the court, or the identity of Xun's younger brothers, Liu Bei, Sun Jian and other Han family brothers know how difficult it should be to get ahead

Said to write, returned to the Wei Mansion, first met with Tian Yuanhao and others, left Yuan's Rong Xunyu in the front yard to tell Tian Yuanhao about the journey along the way to meet and settle the more than 100 Luancheng officials sent by Yao Sheng, and sent the officials to lead Cen Zhu Xu Rong to the house to choose a room, Wen Chou immediately entered the backyard hall, laid out the paper inkstone, and handwrote a letterhead to Li Xieyin to repair Zhao Qian and Li Zhan, so that Li Xuan selected a few elegant gifts, delivered them to a few reliable soldiers, and ordered them to be sent to these people

Write a few letters. Wen Chou threw his pen, the soldiers who were waiting to deliver the letter left, and there was no one in the hall, he sighed regretfully: "It's a pity that I don't know Han Fu!" ”

Han Fu, the future Jizhou pastor, is a native of Yingchuan, the same county as Wen Chou, I heard that he is now a court official, but it is a pity that Wen Chou became famous late. It's too late, but I haven't socialized with Han Fu

He was sighing in the hall, and saw Yuan Shirong walking quickly into the courtyard with a happy face, and climbed the steps in front of the hall in three or two steps, but before he could take off his shoes and enter the hall, he leaned in outside the threshold and said to him in a cheerful voice: "Captain, Guo Jia is back!" ”

, Twelve

The phrase "Twelve Qings" comes from Liu Xi in the late Han Dynasty

Liu Xi was born in the late Han Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling. The word Chengguo, a native of Beihai, had been living in Jiaozhou during the period of Emperor Jian'an, was a scholar in the late Han Dynasty, a scholar of exegetes in the Three Kingdoms, Xu Ci, a scholar who had served as the Great Changqiu of Shu State, and Xue Zongcheng Bing, a famous minister of Wu State, had learned from him

"The Western Han Dynasty will want to?? "Rank 1" quoted Liu Xi Shiyun: "Hanzhi Twelve Qing: one is too often, the second is too servant, the third is Weiwei, and the fourth is Guangluxun. The five are said to be Zongzheng, and they are said to be holding Jinwu. Seven said Da Si Nong, eight said Shaofu, said Da Honglu, ten said Tingwei, eleven said Da Changqiu, and twelve said will be a master craftsman" but according to the "Han Shu ?? List of Hundred Officials and Ministers". From Taichang to Zhijin Wu Ji Shiqing, the rank is 2,000 stones, and the Cheng is a thousand stones. Both "The Biography of He Wu" and "The Biography of Zhu Bo" have Qing's statement on this issue, Wei Zhao distinguishes the clouds: "Han Zhengqing: one is too often, and the other is Guanglu. The third is called Weiwei, the fourth is called the servant, the fifth is the court captain, the seventh is called Zongzheng, the eighth is said to be Si Nong, and the Shaofu is the secretary of the Qing Jinwu as the original captain, who patrols the outside of the palace, and the division is treacherous, and the Emperor Wu is more than the secretary of the foreign secretary, not among the master craftsmen, the second Jinwu Changqiu, from the Queen's Palace, not a member of the Tianqing"

Since Wei Zhao's analysis, there has been a mention of the secretary of the law and the secretary, which originated in the Zhou Dynasty, but the so-called secretary of the Han Dynasty was neither distinguished from the position nor the rank, but only followed the ancient name, and had no practical significance

Wen Scandal was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Guo Jia is back?" ”

"yes"

"How did he get back? Where is it now? Call him! As soon as Wen Chou's voice fell, he changed his mind again and said, "No, where is he?" I'm going to see him myself! ”

Yuan Shirong replied: "Guo Jia is now in the front yard, because the clothes on his body are untidy and dirty, so he is bathing and changing, and after bathing and changing, he will come to visit Lieutenant Bing @ Fire Chinese Literature 8jxレ&��"

"I'll go see him personally"

Wen Chou couldn't wait to put on his shoes at the entrance of the hall, asked Yuan Shirong to lead the way, and strode to the front yard

Guo Jia was bathing in the side room in the front yard

Xun Yu Tian Yuanhao and the others were waiting for Guo Jia to wash in the hall, Xun Yu saw Wen Chou hurriedly go to Guo Jia's bathing house under the guidance of Yuan Shirong, and said to Tian Yuanhao with a smile: "Lieutenant can't wait."

"It's Ai Guojia who went to Duorì and came back suddenly, lieutenant, this is to eliminate the good news he can bring back, you and I don't want to sit and wait in the hall, let's go, go outside the house and wait for Guo Jia to come out."

Xun Yu agreed that the two of them came out of the hall with a smile, catching up with Wen Chou, Tian Yuanhao smiled behind him: "Lieutenant is in such a hurry!" ”

Wen Chou looked back and saw that it was Tian Yuanhao and Xun Yu, and while not stopping, he also smiled and said: "It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's Zhao Jun's urgency."

The meaning of this is that it is not that he is in a hurry to see Guo Jia, but that it is almost winter, and Zhao Jun's group of thieves is about to become active, so it is Zhao Jun who is anxious to see Guo Jiatian, Yuan Hao, Xun Yu, and Yuan Rong and smile

Outside the house, Guo Jia was still bathing

Yuan Shirong knocked on the door outside the house and laughed loudly: "Junchang, the lieutenant has come to see you, haven't you washed it yet?" Hurry up and wash it out! ”

Guo Jia's voice came from inside the house, and he said in surprise: "The lieutenant is here?" Oh, how dare Lieutenant Lao wait outside, Jia's sin is also"

Wen Chou smiled: "You are indeed guilty, but it is not the crime of asking me to wait outside for you to bathe and change your clothes, but the crime of not returning without hearing from you after you go for a long time!" ”

Guo Jia replied in the house: "This is a long story, and please wait for the lieutenant to wait, and then talk to the lieutenant when Guo Jia comes out."

Not long after the words landed, the door opened, and Guo Jia came out of the house

He didn't know whose clothes he was wearing, he was low, his clothes were long, his sleeves had to be rolled up, the hem of his clothes had to be pulled up, the collar was big, revealing a small half of his chest, his hair was loose and his face was still carrying water on his chest, he should have heard Wen Chou coming, he didn't have time to wash it carefully, and he didn't have time to wipe the water off his body, so he came out

Wen Chou took off his coat, put it on him, and said with a smile: "The autumn wind is cold, tie your clothes well, don't get cold"

"Jiapi is thick and frost-resistant, this cold is nothing, a few days ago in the mountains, it was called a cold, and I was frozen!"

Wen Chou said: "This is not a place to talk, come on, let's go to the hall to talk in detail, I will listen to you, where you Cheng Jun has been these days, and what great things you have done."

And they all went to the front yard

Yuan Shirong and Guo Jia have a friendly relationship, some time ago he thought Guo Jia was dead, very sad, now seeing Guo Jia return, very happy, holding Guo Jia's hand and not letting go, accompanied into the hall, he sat near Guo Jia's seat

Everyone sat down, quieted down, listened attentively, and listened carefully to Guo Jia's account of his experiences these days

But it turned out that after Guo Jia left the Yuan clan a few days ago, he took his entourage to the mountains west of the Yuan clan to find his old friends, he was usually in contact with his old friends, and it was easy to find them, but unlike Wen Chou Yuan Rong, they guessed that he could not surrender, but was killed by his old friends, but his old friends were persuaded by him very smoothly, and they were all willing to surrender to Wen Chou

Things have developed to this point, Guo Jia should have taken his old friends and their subordinates back to the Yuan clan, but just as he was about to come back, he heard one of his old friends inadvertently talk about knowing a little marshal under Wang Dang, so he temporarily got up and thought: "I don't have many old friends, and there are less than 100 people together, so many people don't have much merit, I'm afraid it's rare for Wenjun to value, it's better to simply go to Wang Dang's ministry to check it out, and then go back to Yuan Wang Dang is the biggest thief in the county, If I can get the details of him, needless to say, Wen Jun will definitely look down on me! This is: Cheng Junchang made a great contribution when he first became a lieutenant, and Guo Jia was a decisive person, so he discussed and agreed with his old friends, leaving the rest of the people to wait in the mountains for the time being, and he and the person who knew Wang Dang's Xiaoshuai went to the northern black mountain where Wang Dang was hiding

Unexpectedly, when Wen Chou went north to the county along the road, Guo Jia was also on the way north, but he may have been half a day earlier than Wen Chou

Wen Chou smiled: "Cheng Jun has tiger courage and goes into the tiger's den alone"

"Ban Dingyuan said: 'If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger?' I went into the tiger's den this time, and I really got a tiger."

Wen Chou asked, "What tiger?" ”

Guo Jia said: "I went to Montenegro this time, and under the pretext that my old friend 'I haven't seen my old friend for a long time, I miss it very much, so I came to pay respects', and stayed in the valley where Wang Dang was hiding for three days, and found out the details of his subordinates clearly, but when I came back from my trip, I heard about a person."

Wen Chou asked, "Who?" ”

Guo Jia said: "Chu Feiyan"

Wen Chouxin said: "Chu Feiyan? He remembered that the leader of the Montenegrin Army was followed by Zhang Niujiao and Zhang Feiyan, this Chu Feiyan thought that it should be the later Zhang Feiyan, pretending not to know who this person was, and asked, "Who is Chu Feiyan?" ”

Guo Jia said: "This person is not from my Zhao County, but from Chen, who is a hero in the countryside of the market, because of his light and fierce fierceness, he is called 'Feiyan' by the county people, and now he is from the Black Mountain, he gathered a group of young people as thieves, and turned to attack the mountains and rivers of Zhongshanchen, and sometimes he will come to my Zhao County to loot This time he sent people to find Wang Dang, but it was to discuss the matter of joining forces to form an alliance"

Guo Jia sighed, and said: "Chu Feiyan used to help the poor in the township, clever and wise, I have heard his name for a long time, and I had a relationship with him many years ago, I thought he was a hero in my state, but I didn't expect to become a thief in the end."

"Is he very famous in Jizhou?"

The Montenegrin Army, which will be launched next year, is not a strict military organization, but a loose military alliance, and the overall name is "Montenegro", under this name, there are more than a dozen Zhang Feiyan in the relatively large battalion head who can become the "handsome" that all the battalion heads can accept, one is because of Zhang Niujiao's will, and the other is because he was very famous among the light chivalrous and evil boys in Jizhou in his early years

"Boling Zhang Niujiaochen Chu Feiyan Ganling Bai around Zhao Guo Yu poison, as well as Zhongshan's Zuo Zhangzhang Eight Liu Shi generations, all of them are the heroes of the state, famous in the state county, especially Zhang Niujiao's reputation is the largest, Chu Feiyan and Zhang Niujiao are good friends, because the age is better than Zhang Niujiao's shoes, Zhang Niujiao's father and brother"

"Where is Zhang Niujiao now?"

"Zhang Niujiao has not made a mess, and is still in Boling" (to be continued.) )
