Chapter 19: The Plague of Innocence

In May of the fifth year of Xiping in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Chen Lin entered Luoyang for nearly half a year, worshiped Guanglu doctor Yang Ci as a teacher, and married the Yang family. Since Yang Ci's 60th birthday, Chen Lin's song "Man Jianghong" moved Luoyang, but he became more and more guilty of Duan Ying, the captain. Chen Lin remembered his personal performance at the birthday banquet that day, and since then, Chen Lin has ordered Huang Yan to send gifts to He Jin every month. Chen Lin had some calculations, Emperor Ling favored a few people such as the He family and the Wang family, and the He family was very likely to dominate the harem. He Jin was originally a butcher, and he has always been disliked by scholars, although Chen Lin is not a very big family, but He Jin is also happy to make friends.

A month ago, Zhuyi in Yizhou County rebelled against the Han, and Emperor Ling sent Zhu Gui in the imperial history to discuss, but in less than a month, the news came that he was defeated by Zhuyi. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was at a loss for what to do, and at this time, Yongchang Taishou Cao Luan Shangshu complained for the party, and the words were fierce, which made Emperor Ling angry, and ordered Cao Luan to be executed, and reiterated the ban of the party, and all the relatives of the protΓ©gΓ©s of the party members were not allowed to be officials.

All of this had nothing to do with Chen Lin, but because of Taiwei Duan, who had been convicted before, it was soon related to Chen Lin.

However, it is said that this Ying was also a famous general of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and made great achievements in Xiliang, but after returning to Luoyang, he was close to the eunuchs, and he was mostly in the company of small people, just because of his reputation, the world rarely slandered, but since then he has alienated Duan Ying, and Duan Ying has become more and more annoyed. This year, he has been unfavorable to Chen Lin twice, and he is extremely unwilling.

However, it was said that the eunuchs who were close to Duan Ying were mainly Cao Jie and Wang Fu, and these two people were deeply trusted by Emperor Ling because they assisted Emperor Ling to ascend to the throne. Although the eunuchs are all close ministers of Emperor Ling, and they have to serve Emperor Ling day and night, these two have their own mansions outside the palace and have received many godsons. I want to come to this eunuch with this virtue.

On this day, at Cao Jie's mansion, Duan Ying, Wang Fu and Cao Jie were huddled together again, and they didn't know what to say. Speaking of the anti-Han incident of Zhuyi in Yizhou County, Cao Jie and Wang Fu both scolded angrily: "A few barbarians are restless and keep their own stay, but they want to rebel, but the hateful Zhu Zihua of the turtle was defeated, which made the emperor uneasy, and the masters were scolded for no reason, this barbarian who should be killed, Zhu Zihua who should be killed." ”

Although these eunuchs are in the wind and rain outside, they are extremely loyal to the emperor, and they are not fart if they lose the emperor's trust. When Duan Ying heard this, she thought to herself, this Yizhou County Zhuyi is so fierce, and then thought of Chen Lin, hatred went up, and said: "Taiwei Peng's subordinate Li Hao Li Zede has been fighting with a certain for many years, and he knows a lot about military affairs, but he can calm this chaos, if he and his father-in-law raise this person as the Taishou of Yizhou County tomorrow, when this chaos is pacified, the saint will be happy, and the life will not be easy." ”

When Cao Jie Wang Fu heard Duan Ying say this, he hurriedly asked: "Li Zede is really capable, Mo is like Zhu Zihua?" Duan Ying hurriedly said: "My father-in-law is relieved." "Seeing that Duan Ying is so sure, Cao Jie Wang Fu also agreed to give Emperor Ling a blow when he goes back tonight, and tomorrow Duan Ying will propose it, and the matter will be done.

Duan Ying also said: "In the previous time, Yizhou County led Gao County to besiege Zhuyi, and the county magistrate died in battle. Recently, everyone in Luoyang praised Dr. Guanglu for his loyalty to the country and his talent, why don't you let him do this high-rate county order? ”

When Cao Jie Wang Fu heard this, he thought that this high rate county was the most serious place in Yizhou County, and at this time, Duan Ying wanted to raise this even Chen Bozhi as the county magistrate, which was obviously to harm this person, and both of them glanced at Duan Ying with a lot of taste: "Lord Taiwei wants to make trouble, but it is good not to spoil the war in Yizhou County." ”

When Duan Ying left Cao Jie's mansion, he glanced back with disgust, and thought to himself: "Alas, the scholars don't like me to kill, and I'm not a relative, if I don't find a place to support, how can I stand up in the court, don't you want me to resign and go home like that Zhang Zhang, alas." ”

Chen Lin didn't know anything about what happened in the court, and it turned out that Duan Yingzhen recommended Li Hao as the Taishou of Yizhou County that day, and he was approved. He also cited Chen Lin as the county magistrate of the county, and originally appointed a county magistrate to say that the court must say, but this Yizhou County is now special. Yang Ci strongly objected, but he couldn't bear the eunuch to blow the wind to Emperor Ling, Yang Ci also glared at Duan Ying angrily, this time the Yang family faction really remembered Duan Ying.

On this day, Yang Ci returned to the official office, Chen Lin was busy, Yang Ci couldn't bear it for a while, but he could only tell Chen Lin about it. After listening to this, Chen Lin secretly said in his heart that it was not good, this Ying turned out to be like this, Chen Lin saw that the teacher was sad, and couldn't bear to let the teacher worry too much, and said: "Teacher, Bo went to Gao County here, and it may not necessarily be a disaster, Bo Zhi is young and weak, and he needs credit, and Bo Zhi is dedicated to serving the country, this is not the time." ”

Chen Lin said righteously, Yang Ci was even more ashamed, and hurriedly said: "Uncle will definitely save his life here, and I will definitely be able to recall Bozhi to Luoyang in March and May." ”

In this way, Chen Lin was about to be sent to the front line inexplicably, and as soon as Chen Lin returned to Chen's mansion and said, Zhou Cang was anxious: "Why don't you go back to Anyang, don't sit on this county order." Zhou Cang said lightly, this time, I am afraid that in the future, even if I have no chance with my career. Chen Lin thought for a while and said to everyone: "This is going to Yizhou County, the road is far away, and there are many wars, only Zhoucang Huangyan will go with me, and the rest will stay in Luoyang. ”

A small Lang official went to the local county magistrate, and few people knew, Chen Lin said goodbye to Yang Ci, and took Zhou Cang and Huang Yan to Chang'an Hanzhong Yizhou, as for what Yang Ci said, Li Hao went to Yizhou to serve as Taishou, Chen Lin didn't care, and did not go on the road with Li Hao. Chen Lin and the three of them entered the boundary of Yizhou, and deeply appreciated the customs of Shudi.

Huang Yan said to Chen Lin: "The eldest young master was obviously framed this time, but Li Zede is the original subordinate of Lord Taiwei, I am afraid that he will harm the eldest young master, and the eldest young master should have some countermeasures." Chen Lin has been thinking about this question for a long time, and said: "Huang Yan has a plan to survive this catastrophe, and the rate is high and dangerous, but it will affect the two of you." The two people next to him hurriedly said some words that swore to the death, and Huang Yan said: "This Li Zede is also like us, he just came to Yizhou, I am afraid that he may not know more about the situation in Yizhou than us, and he is entrusted by the imperial court, I expect that this person will urgently end the rebellion of Zhuyi." In the future, you must ask the eldest young master, if the eldest young master thinks of a plan to help him calm the chaos, he will not want to make more trouble in the future. ”

Chen Lin saw Huang Yan say this until Huang Yan must have a good plan in mind: "Okay, you Huang Yan, don't tell the trick in your heart." Huang Yan hurriedly said: "Lord Li's visit to Yizhou this time is nothing more than the transfer of 2,000 officers and troops from Chang'an, and the local defenders of Yizhou are afraid that they will already let Zhuyi fight and fight, and they will not be of great use, so Lord Li will inevitably face the phenomenon of insufficient military strength." It is not the same mind among the people, so if it is not divided and dissolved, it will be allowed to benefit and make it useful for me. Huang Yan said this, Chen Lin didn't know, and praised Huang Yan with a laugh.

Chen Lin and the others were faster than Li Hao, so Chen Lin didn't have to go to Dianchi County, Yizhou County, to report, and went directly to the south and went straight to Sugao County. Chen Lin looked at the broken city wall in front of the county seat, shook his head, and thought to himself, this city wall is afraid that after a lot of battles, it is burned black and damaged everywhere. Chen Lin thought to himself, the top priority is to repair the city wall, remembering that this time he only brought three hundred taels of gold, Chen Lin regretted that he didn't bring more, like Chen Lin who thought about using his own money to repair the city wall, I'm afraid only Chen Lin himself.

Chen Lin heard that the previous county magistrate was killed in battle, and he thought that the soldiers and civilians of the county who came to this high rate were not greedy for life and afraid of death. Sure enough, when Chen Lin was about to enter the city gate, he was stopped by the sergeant, and after Chen Lin took out the paperwork, the sergeant guarding the gate saw that Chen Lin was young, and he was sad in his heart, thinking that the imperial court had given up the county and let a young man be the county magistrate, so he didn't treat Chen Lin and the three of them very well.

Chen Lin came to the county government, and everyone knew that he was the new county magistrate, so he hurriedly came to visit. But there were only three of them, and Chen Lin hurriedly asked who it was. It turns out that this high rate of the county is located in a remote area, only separated by a Yunnan county, then out of the Han boundary, now is the beginning of the Zhuyi incident, the population of the high rate of the county is only 3920 people, most of the officials have run out, and everyone is willing to take over, if not Chen Linlai, the county magistrate is empty. Only the county lieutenant Zhao Xiao and Zhao Tianhua are left, and the deputies Liu Kai and Liu Hengqiu are all martial artists, and there is only one record room left in the civil service, called Zhao Ru and Zhao Shucheng, but they have nothing to do with Zhao Xiao, Zhao Ru is a native of Yizhou County.

These three people are like the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate, they are a little disappointed in Chen Lin, the county magistrate, Chen Lin doesn't care, just keeps asking about the situation of some high counties, the three of them see that Chen Lin asked in an orderly manner, without any childish actions, and they couldn't help but look forward to Chen Lin's rising meaning. The three of them didn't know that Chen Lin was cold in his heart after listening to the situation in Gao County at this time.

There are many mountains and forests and few fields in the high county, and the Wei County of Yizhou County to the south is Yunnan County, the people of the high county are less than 4,000, and the soldiers are only 532 now, which is still more than 532 after the Zhuyi anti-Han Dynasty, the first few barbarians attacked the city and died a lot, and the remaining 532 are also considered elite soldiers, which are stronger than many county soldiers in the Central Plains.

Many of the people in the county are afraid of the barbarians and have taken refuge in the city, and it has been more than three months, and the people in the county have not much food, so they will have to rely on the support of the county government. Chen Lin immediately issued an order, to record the county immediately concentrate the grain and grass, in the future, the county will distribute grain every day, and the record room will count the county's grain and grass geometry, and the geometry of money.

Chen Lin wanted to boost morale and give the sergeants some confidence, so Chen Lin took out five taels of gold from himself and gave it to Zhao Xiao: "Can County Lieutenant Zhao go and buy some meat from the big families in the county and share it with the sergeants?" Zhao Xiaoleng was a little moved, and was very moved when he saw that Chen Lin wanted to buy meat for the sergeant to eat with the money he took from him.

When Chen Lin first came to the county, he must have a good understanding of the situation of the high rate, so after arranging the task for Zhao Ru and Zhao Xiao, he asked Liu Kai to take himself around the county.

I don't know what Chen Lin can do in the high rate of the county, please watch the next episode.
