Chapter 678: Speak by example
Xin Bi's brows were tightly locked, and he exchanged glances with Yan Liang, who also looked disappointed, and shook his head in unison. Pen&Fun&Pavilion www.biquge.info(.)
"This is Your Majesty's condition?"
"Nope." The envoy said lightly: "This is a gift from Your Majesty. ”
Xin Bi couldn't control his anger anymore, and suddenly stood up and shouted, "It's just to avoid death, this is also a gift?" Could it be that the thousands of people in Puyang City have no value at all? Is the hussar general going to bury them all here for the sake of his exploits? ”
"It's you who want to bury them here, not the hussar generals, not your majesty." The envoy was unmoved, and still said unhurriedly: "You joined the Yuan family to raise troops, and then brazenly invaded Yanzhou and occupied Puyang, it was your ambition to provoke the war and bring the threat of death to Yanzhou. Now His Majesty is personally conscripted, the hussar general leads the army of tigers and wolves, and Yuan Shao escapes from the wind. Your Majesty is lenient and allows you to surrender yourself in Kaesong, so that you will not have another sword war. If you are stubborn and act recklessly, when the time comes, the Son of Heaven will be angry, and if you want to surrender, you can only end up like a match. ”
"Matching? What is the end of the trial? Simbixin raised his throat.
The trial was beheaded on the spot by the hussar general, and he patrolled between Liang Pei. Xianrong was sent to Linyi in Jiaozhou to be detained to prepare for the hundreds of members of the trial. ”
Xin Bi gasped, and Yan Liang was speechless in shock. After a long time, Xin Bi sneered: "So, the court will never let us go?" ”
"Not really." The envoy shook his head: "The judge first set fire to the people's crops, and then let Yuan Shao go, and after a stalemate with the hussar general for several ri, he went to the camp himself, Yu exchanged his dying body for the name of loyalty and filial piety, and then used the judgment to protect the wealth of the family. If the organs are exhausted, how can they not bring humiliation on themselves? Therefore, the hussar general killed him to show those self-righteous people in the world and move his family to show the meaning of reward and punishment for meritorious crimes. Your sins are not as heavy as the judgment. Before you are bound to die, Your Majesty is gracious enough to allow you to surrender and give you a chance to mend your ways. ”
Simbi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The back is soaked. He pondered for a moment: "Just spare us not to die? ”
The envoy sighed: "Xin George, do you know Changsha Huanjie?" ”
Simbi nodded. He is a native of Yingchuan, although Yingchuan belongs to Yuzhou, but it is very close to Jingzhou, and the communication between scholars is very convenient. There are no celebrities in Changsha, the Huan family is one of the few, and Xin Bi has heard of the name of Huanjie. also knew that he had fought against Liu Xiu in Changsha City, and planned to let Sun Jian escape from Changsha City. In Xin Bi's opinion, if he can escape from Liu Xiu's men, he is a masterpiece.
"Do you know Huan Boxu?"
"It's down." Huan Jie bowed slightly.
"You...... Are you Changsha Huan Boxu? Xin Bi was startled and stood up, and rushed to the front of Huan Dai in two steps, staring at Huan Jie's face with his eyes. Huan Jie is now wearing official uniforms, but the grade is very low. This can be seen from the colorful cyanosis around his waist. The dignified Changsha celebrity actually made a hundred stone officials, which was impossible in Xin Bi's opinion. "How do you ......"
"I once attached myself to Yuan Shu and almost dragged Changsha City into a military disaster. The hussar general remembered that I had a meritorious contribution to the city. He did not condemn me, but now he has allowed me to enter the camp as a servant. Huan Jie's gentle smile: "If the two of you can listen to my persuasion, I will be promoted to Langzhong with four hundred stones after I go back." After two or three years by His Majesty's side, if he is lucky, he may be able to be released as a county magistrate or a county magistrate. Accumulated merits, 2,000 stones can be reached, which can wash away the dirt of the thief and comfort the ancestors of the Huan family. ”
Huan Jiezhi looked at Xin Bi, "Xin George, the car ahead is over." Don't make a mistake again. He turned his head and said to Yan Liang again: "Yan Zishan, the hussar general respects the warriors, and His Majesty is loved by him, and he has the ambition to expand the territory." They all remember that you once played a meritorious role in the battle of Northern Xinjiang. I can't bear to see your best generals buried in the civil war. If you want to reproduce the style of the Yan family, why don't you follow His Majesty to ride a horse in Saibei, why are you willing to follow the rebellion? The hussar general taught us that the duty of a warrior is to guard, to protect the peace of the world, not to destroy the peace of the world. Only the warriors who take on the duty of guardianship will be respected by the present and admired by future generations. Which is more important, you choose. ”
Yan Liang was silent. Huan Jie was not in a hurry, he looked at them quietly, and after a long time, Xin Bi stood up and gave Huan Jie a deep look: "Thank you for your advice." ”
Huan Jie, who breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and returned the salute: "Xin George can get lost and know how to return, and he is also a handsome man who knows the times." ”
Xin Bi smiled bitterly, turned to Yan Liang and said, "Zishan, what are you hesitating about, isn't this the result you have been longing for?" ”
Yan Liang hesitated for a moment: "It's just that Yuan Benchu was quite good at the beginning, but he ...... it."
"Yuan Benchu, who values you, has already died, and now there is only Yuan Benchu who is not self-sufficient, what is there to hesitate?" Huan Jie interrupted Yan Liang's words and waved his hand: "Yan Zishan, you are a martial artist, don't you know that soldiers are impermanent, but you only stick to the rules?" ”
Yan Liang sighed, got up and bowed: "Thank you for your teachings." ”
Huanjie laughed, got up and grabbed one with one hand: "It should be me who thanks you." You not only saved the lives of thousands of soldiers, but also saved Puyang from being attacked again, and at the same time gave me a credit for the Huan rank. ”
Xin Bi and Yan Liang looked at each other and smiled embarrassedly. Huan Jie took Xin Bi and Yan Liang out of the city and went straight to the imperial camp of the Son of Heaven. Xiao Tianzi, who was listening to the siege plan, was surprised and delighted when he heard that Xin Bi and Yan Liang had surrendered, and turned to Liu Xiu and said: "Mr. is really like a god, I can't imagine that Puyang City will surrender like this." ”
Liu Xiu put down the Jing Zhu in his hand and smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers are like gods, it's that the ministers believe that they believe that Xin Bi and the others will not be so rebellious that they are unreasonable, and they also believe that Huan Jie can convince Xin Bi and them." Showing up to say, the persuasiveness naturally multiplies, not to mention that Huan Jieben is a talent with outstanding resourcefulness. Your Majesty will have many opportunities to see this in the future. ”
Xiao Tianzi was overjoyed, the meaning of Liu Xiu's words was obvious, he wanted to recommend the talent of Huanjie to him. Xiao Tianzi strode back to the main seat and sat down majestically. Liu Xiu and Cao Cāo hurriedly sat down, Liu Xiu sat on the left of Xiao Tianzi, Cao Cāo sat on the right, and the generals who were listening to the military strategists also took their positions one after another, one by one, without smiling, and the big tent was suddenly murderous.
Huan Jie's first entry into the account to give the order, Xiao Tianzi encouraged a few words, and immediately named the Jiade Palace. The Jiade Hall is the main hall of the Son of Heaven, and it is the most respected hall in the palace. Huanjie was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.
Xin Bi and Yan Liang tied their arms, walked in, and carefully knelt down in front of Xiao Tianzi. Xiao Tianzi reprimanded them a few words in a serious manner, and comforted them: "You can know your way back from the lost, abandon the darkness and turn to the light, which shows that your heart is not broken." From now on, you must keep your duty and do not be delusional. Wealth can be expected, but there is a distinction between righteousness and unrighteousness. Master Ziyun, unrighteous and rich and expensive, is like a floating cloud to me. The teachings of the saints should be kept in mind and not forgotten. ”
Xin Bi and Yan Liang kowtowed in thanksgiving.
Xiao Tianzi looked at Liu Xiu and Cao Cāo again, and said in a consultative tone: "Although General Hussar, General Wei, Xin Bi and Yan Liang have made a mistake, fortunately, they have not made a big mistake. And Xin Bi helped Cheng Hussar General to delay the army, Yan Liang also had a meritorious battle with the Xianbei people in northern Xinjiang, I think that the merit is too clear, and the reward and punishment should also be followed, and a little encouragement can be given to reward the latecomers. I wonder what the two generals think? ”
Cao Cāo didn't speak, just looked at Liu Xiu, but Liu Xiu said respectfully: "Your Majesty Shengming, the minister also thinks it should be so." ”
With Liu Xiu's permission, Xiao Tianzi's heart was settled, and he pondered for a moment: "Grant Xin Bi as the indoctrination, and Yan Liang as the festival from the tiger." ”
The indoctrination is more than 300 stones, and the Jiecong Tiger Ben is more than 200 stones, all of them are petty officials, if it is in peacetime, the Son of Heaven grants such an official position is tantamount to humiliation, and a warrior like Yan Liang may accept it, and a famous person like Xin Bi will definitely disdain it. But thinking about Changsha Huanjie, who was only a 100-stone official, and this promotion was only 400 stones, Xin Bi didn't dare to complain. As a rebel, being able to die is already an extrajudicial grace, and he has also been awarded the position of a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and the low point is the low point, with his own ability, are you afraid that you will not be promoted in the future?
Xin Bi kowtowed to thank him, but Yan Liang hesitated for a moment, kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." However, the minister is despicable and careless, and I am afraid that he will not be able to take on the heavy responsibility of protecting His Majesty. Please treat the sinful body, serve as a soldier, and serve in front of the army, and do what you wish. ”
The corner of Xiao Tianzi's eyes twitched, he smiled slightly, turned his head to Liu Xiu and said, "Hussar General, what do you think?" ”
Liu Xiu coughed: "Yan Liang, now that Your Majesty is on a personal expedition, you are a servant of the Tiger Ben, that is, you are following Your Majesty's expedition, how is it different from serving before the army?" Your Majesty already knows your sincerity, so you don't have to shirk it, just be careful in the future. ”
Yan Liang was helpless, so he had to kowtow and thank him. Xiao Tianzi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He heard Liu Xiu talk about these two people, and the price was not low, so he wanted to take this opportunity to receive it to his side, but Yan Liang actually wanted to serve in front of the army, and didn't want to be a man by his side, which made him a little difficult to deal with. If Liu Xiu also wanted to receive this fierce general under his own account, he would really be difficult to shirk now, and he would be very sad to get by. Fortunately, Liu Xiu not only did not take advantage of the robbery, but persuaded Yan Liang to accept the appointment, which surprised him very much, and at the same time made him a little more grateful.
Liu Xiu turned around and said, "Your Majesty's rewards and punishments are clear, and the ministers are respectful." However, the imperial court has its own system, and official positions cannot be lightly awarded, and I also ask Your Majesty to supplement the relevant documents later and report to the Taiwei Mansion for filing, so as not to impeach me and General Wei for bewitching Your Majesty and breaking the rules. ”
Xiao Tianzi was in a happy mood, and agreed repeatedly, and immediately arranged for someone to do it. Cao Cāo raised his eyebrows, secretly surprised. Although Xiao Tianzi has not yet been in power, but after all, he is the Son of Heaven, and he has been awarded two internal court officials, not to mention three or four hundred stone petty officials, even if it is a two-thousand-stone important post like Hu Ben Zhonglang, Xiao Tianzi can also be determined in a word, and the Taiwei Mansion can only sign an order. But now Liu Xiu asked Xiao Tianzi to report to the Taiwei Mansion first, and said that the matter was urgent, according to him, it seemed that the normal procedures had to be appointed by the Taiwei Mansion. This already surprised Cao Cāo, but what surprised Cao Cāo even more was that Xiao Tianzi actually agreed naturally, not realizing that his power had been restricted.
What the hell are these father and son doing, have they already found out and hidden it from the world? Cao Cāo was full of suspicion. rs
