I forgot the time, apologize! ——

Luoyang is still prosperous, but a little more depressed.

Luo Zheng has been very busy these days, and all kinds of entertainment have made him so busy that he can't wait to split people in half.

Duan Xuan, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and others all invited him to the banquet, with the intention of wooing.

For this upstart who has just made great achievements and has been appreciated by Dong Zhuo but has not yet attached himself to any docks, except for Niu Fu and Li Dao, the other generals in the Xiliang Army who have real power and power want to try their best to win them over.

While the generals of Xiliang unanimously suppressed the military system of the state and the military system of the north to the outside world, there were also many mountains inside.

With Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu and the Dong clan as the core commanders, they occupied a dominant position in the Xiliang army.

When Dong Zhuo started his career, the henchmen who had already followed, such as Duan Xuan, Hu Zhen, Guo Yan, Li Dao, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and other old generals of Xiliang, also mastered considerable military power, and while competing for favor with each other, they were united with the outside world.

As for the Dibei military system headed by Xu Rong and the Bingzhou military system headed by Lu Bu, they are the targets of the Xiliang military system.

Xu Rong is a little better, he gets along well with the Xiliang military department, and Xu Rong is just a pure soldier, and he has no ambition to fight for power, so he is quite reused by Dong Zhuo, and often leads the army alone.

As for the military system of Lu Budi and the state, it is the key target of the Xiliang military system.

Forming a party and a faction within a party may be a problem that any sovereign has to face.

Luo Zheng didn't know how Dong Zhuo thought about the factional strife of the army under his command, maybe it was connivance, or even a headache, but no matter what, no monarch would tolerate the local forces under his command threatening his authority.

If this kind of 'party' is still within its control, there may not be any hidden dangers.

But if this kind of 'party' loses control, it will definitely be ruthlessly purged.

While observing the complicated situation, Luo Zheng carefully dealt with the pull of the Xiliang generals, did not immediately refuse, and did not attach to any dock, so as not to arouse Dong Zhuo's suspicion and invite unwarranted disasters.

As for the invitation of Lu Bu and the ministers of the DPRK and China, they can hide as far as they can.

This time he sent troops to Kanto, although his local ability was quite appreciated by Dong Zhuo, he was not Dong Zhuo's confidant. Before gaining Dong Zhuo's trust, he took the liberty of getting too close to these people, which only had disadvantages and no benefits.

What is a little unpleasant is that Cao A's family has not been found.

When he was in Qian County, there were Cao women who said that Cao Cao's family had been in Luoyang since he was a child in order to save his son's life.

As soon as he arrived in Luoyang, Luo Zheng asked people to search around, but there was no news.

Inn, spacious backyard inside.

Without the war, Luo Zheng rarely relaxed, read the books of sages, studied the mainstream ideas of this era, or even studied the art of war, or practiced his terrible calligraphy, so as not to be underestimated by the scholars.

Occasionally, it is quite relaxing, and it is quite pleasant.

What Luo Zheng didn't expect was that Gan could write a beautiful calligraphy.

After careful questioning, I learned that Gan was born under the official eunuch, although he was not a scholar, but he was also very knowledgeable.

Luo Zheng was not ashamed to ask, so he simply let Gan be his enlightenment teacher and teach him to practice calligraphy.

There is no doubt that this practice is against etiquette, and if it spreads, it will definitely be criticized by those bureaucrats and doctors.

Gan is so willing that he completely likes this gentle and considerate man who is eclectic.

The sun is ordinary, and by August, the weather is finally not so hot.

Luo Zheng spread out the cloth and was practicing his calligraphy slowly, and the words he wrote were like a rope flying dog crawling.

Gan stood behind him, pursed his lips and snickered, while pinching his shoulders and beating his back for him, relaxing his mind.

At this moment, a soldier rushed in and said quickly: "General, the Son of Heaven has sent an angel to announce the decree." ”

"Angels?"

Luo Zheng was stunned, and then puzzled: "What is the angel here to proclaim?" ”

The pro-soldier scratched his head and said, "The villain doesn't know either." ”

"Quick, go with General Ben to meet you."

Luo Zheng pushed the table open, quickly got up and ran out.

When I ran to the door, I suddenly remembered that the emperor's decree in this era was not taken casually, and he had to bathe and burn incense.

This is etiquette, and it cannot be violated, otherwise it will be a crime of great disrespect.

At that moment, he hurriedly asked the soldiers to welcome the angel in first, and then ran into the house to let Gan's serve to bathe and change clothes.

After completing these tedious processes, he went to the front hall to see the angel, set up a case and burned incense to receive the holy decree.

The small yellow door that came to the place to pass the decree opened the holy decree and read: "Xiao Cavalry Captain Luo Zheng is loyal and filial piety, wise and brave, leading the army to repel the Kwantung rebels, meritorious to the country's social society, and beneficial to the people. ”

"Chen Luo Zheng, Xie Majesty Xià Longen!"

Luo Zheng hurriedly bowed again, and was really a little surprised in his heart.

A few days ago, when I was rewarding my meritorious deeds, I was unexpectedly disrupted by Niu Fu and Li Dao and others.

I thought that the battle exploits had hit the water scoop, but I didn't expect the reward to come down.

Although he was a few days late, he was finally promoted, and he received many rewards.

General Zhonglang, that is a member of the imperial court at the same level as the state assassin, can fight alone.

Although the lieutenant also has a certain degree of command power, he is limited by his rank and has very limited autonomy, and at most he can only lead an army to carry out some relatively simple military tasks, and rarely has the opportunity to stand alone.

The Zhonglang General is different, this rank has really entered the rank in the military attache system of the Han Dynasty.

In the first year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, and Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Lu Zhi, etc., led the imperial army to conquer the Yellow Turban rebels with the title of Zhonglang General.

Of course, among the military attachés, Zhonglang will be regarded as the lowest rank, and there are many generals with additional ranks.

For example, miscellaneous generals, and further up, military attaché generals such as Siping, Si'an, Sizhen, and Sizheng, as well as chariot cavalry, hussar generals and generals, etc., are much higher in rank than Zhonglang generals.

However, although the imperial court placed military attachés, they were not permanent, so most of the military attachés and generals who commanded the army were awarded the rank of general.

It was only after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and took control of the imperial court, in order to appease a group of henchmen under his command, that he wantonly gave his subordinates the title of commander of the army.

Those state and county assassins and taishou even made their own officials to their cronies, and even took official titles by themselves, making the official system a miasma.

For example, Yuan Shu took Yuzhou Mu by himself, and also gave Sun Jian a well-known Yangzhou assassination history.

According to the official system of the Han Dynasty, the officials above the county commander, the lieutenant, the commander and the military attache and the military attache are all appointed by the emperor, that is, the emperor can directly appoint them, and the local officials have no right to appoint.

In other words, it is not to take Dong Zhuo's puppet court in his eyes.

Sending the angel away, Luo Zheng was in a good mood, and immediately asked Xu Chu, Zhao Yun and others to receive the reward.

The time to come to Luoyang is too short, and I haven't had time to buy some family business, and I have been living in the post house, which is quite inconvenient.

In the past few days, I have been asking people everywhere, preparing to buy a house in Luoyang City, and I don't want the Son of Heaven to give a set of rewards. It was really just dozing off, and someone came to bring a pillow.

Of course, Luo Zheng understood that these rewards were nominally given by the Son of Heaven, but in fact they were given by Dong Zhuo.

After three days of busy work, I finally moved to a new home.

This is a three-story courtyard located in the backstreet of the Upper East Gate, covering an area of about two acres.

The people who can live here are all the powerful people in the court, and there are city guards patrolling the streets at twelve o'clock to prevent the night from being small.

The neighbors are either ministers of the DPRK and the central government, or generals in the army.

The mansion is very large, there are dozens of houses, the front yard is where the guards live, and the middle yard is where the servants live.

As for the backyard, there are only seven or eight houses for the owner of the house and his family.

The hundred slaves and maids rewarded by the Son of Heaven have also been delivered, and all of them have been temporarily placed in the middle courtyard.

Xu Chu and Zhao Yun brought dozens of personal soldiers to live in the mansion. The two have no family business in Luoyang, and they have no place to go for the time being, so they can only live in Luo Zheng's mansion. Xu Chu and Zhao Yun even lived in the backyard and temporarily served as Luo Zhengdi's personal guards.

As for Wu Yi and his people, they were held in a manor outside the city.

Wu Yi's sister Wu Zhen and Xun Yu's family of three were all taken to the mansion by Luo Zheng and placed in the inner courtyard.

Most of the 100 slaves and maidservants rewarded by the Son of Heaven were women in their twenties, and only a few were less than twenty.

Luo Zheng took a look, these women are all official slaves, either they committed crimes and were exterminated, or they were bought from all over the country for women's training, although they are not as beautiful as Wu Zhen, they are also good-looking, and they can sing and dance.

However, how to place it is a problem.

Luo Zheng is not interested in art, and he is not in the mood to appreciate singing and dancing.

Raising so many women in the house not only consumes morale, but also wastes money and food.

As for all of them being accepted as favored concubines, don't even think about it.

There are a hundred women, and even the strongest men can't serve them.

Luo Zheng rubbed his eyebrows and said with emotion: "There are no human rights in troubled times, and women in troubled times have no human rights, they are all poor people who are sent back and forth like goods, even if they are free, they can't live, what should I do?" ”

Gan's eyes showed admiration, and he said softly: "The husband does not treat women as cheap, it is really a blessing for our women." ”

Being praised by a woman, a man will feel more face-saving.

Luo Zheng was no exception, and said with a smile: "It turns out that I still have so many advantages, why haven't I found them before." Well, you've worked hard all the way, so choose four smart and clever girls from those slaves and maids to serve you! ”

Gan Shi Yingying said: "Thank you, husband." ”

Luo Zheng sighed again, "What about the rest of the land?" ”

Gan couldn't help but say: "If the husband has this intention, why don't you marry these women to others, and it is better to live a stable life." ”

"yes, that's a good idea."

Luo Zheng slapped his thigh and shouted outside: "Where are Xu Chu and Zhao Yun?" ”
