Chapter 73: The Yellow Turban Thief Controls Hai

Yangdu County is located in the north of Kaiyang County.

Wang Yan rushed with more than 200 people, and three days later, finally arrived in Yangdu County.

At this time, no one in Yangdu County still knew that there would be a new county order. The operation of the entire Yangdu County is responsible for the county. Wang Yan led the army to the gate of the city and immediately alarmed the soldiers stationed there. The general defending the city learned of Wang Yan's identity and intention, and then saw the letter of appointment issued by Xun Wei, and immediately asked the soldiers to let him go, and at the same time went to the county government to inform the county to greet him.

When Wang Yan arrived at the county office, the county minister He Yi was dressed in official clothes and stood at the door of the county government to greet him.

He Yi is six feet long, obese, with a round face, with a faint smile, his earlobes are large, and the corners of his mouth are smiling, with a smile on his face. It's just this look, but it makes He Yi suffer a lot. Because the reason why He Yi was not allowed to serve as the county magistrate was because his appearance was not up to par. In this era, if you want to be an official, appearance is the first level.

looks ugly, and almost cuts off the chance to rise to the top.

It is recorded in the romance that when Sun Quan saw Pang Tong, "Quan saw that his person had thick eyebrows and noses, black face and short hair, and he described strangely, and he didn't like it in his heart." "The so-called nose lifting, popularly speaking, is the crucian carp nose, the nose bridge is exposed, the tip of the nose is turned up, and the nostrils are exposed. Therefore, Pang Tong looked strange, and Sun Quan first denied Pang Tong in his heart, and he already had a preconceived idea.

is also an ugly man of the Three Kingdoms, Yizhou Don't Drive Zhang Song was born with "a sharp forehead x head, a nose and teeth, a short body of less than five feet, and his speech is like a bronze bell." "This kind of appearance is almost the kind of person with a very pointed forehead, buck teeth and teeth, not tall, just if you don't speak, and you will be scared to death when you speak.

When Zhang Song went to see Cao Cao, it was described in the romance as: "Cao Xian saw Zhang Song's character obscene, and he didn't like it." As soon as he saw Zhang Song, Cao Cao already disliked it very much.

It is true that Romance is not an official history, but from the side, it can reflect the influence of physiognomy on a person.

He Yi walked down the steps and saluted: "County Cheng He Yi, please meet your lord." ”

"He Xiancheng doesn't need to be polite, this official has just arrived, and he still needs a lot of help from He Xiancheng." Wang Yan had a faint smile on his face, neither close nor distant, and did not despise He Yi because of his ugly appearance.

After all, Wang Yan's later life is not as harsh in aesthetics as this life, and from the perspective of future generations, this appearance is not strange at all, not surprising.

He Yi's expression was humble, and he waved his hand respectfully and said, "Your Excellency, please." ”

Wang Yan nodded, and took Huang Zhong and his eighteen relatives into the county office. The accompanying soldiers and all their belongings have their own arrangements for the county government. After entering the hall and taking their seats, Wang Yan and He Yi began to talk.

After half an hour of communication, the smile on Wang Yan's face became more obvious. He Yi was very satisfied with He Yi in his heart, because He Yi was very familiar with the conversation, the familiarity with the government affairs of Yangdu County, or the experience of governing the local government.

As a county leader, He Yi is absolutely qualified.

At this time, He Yi changed his words, and said: "The adult is coming to Yangdu County, and the lower officials will do their best to complete the handover, and then leave to vacate the post of county magistrate for the adult." ”

"Oh, why is that?" Wang Yan's eyes showed a look of incomprehension.

He Yi glanced at Wang Yan, his expression was bitter, and he said: "The appearance of the lower official is unsightly, in a short time, the adult can accept the lower official, and after a long time, it will always be uncomfortable." Rather than that, it's better to leave early. "The previous county order was He Yi's classmate, and he was a friend for many years, so He Yi was able to serve as the county governor.

However, He Yi's classmate died of illness, and He Yi himself lost confidence.

After all, with such a look, even he himself has no confidence.

Moreover, He Yi couldn't figure out Wang Yan's thoughts, so it was better to explain it earlier.

Wang Yan's expression was stern, and he said in a deep voice: "He County Cheng is too worried, this official employs people, regardless of background, appearance, only based on ability and conduct. I talked with you just now, whether it is the geographical overview of Yangdu County or the livelihood of the people, you are a very capable person. With you, it will be much easier for me to govern Yangdu County. If you have the ability, how can I let you go? Could it be that He Xiancheng plans to resign and then let the official invite him frequently, so that he is willing to fail to do it again? ”

"No, Xia Guan definitely doesn't have this mind." He Yicheng was frightened and hurriedly waved his hand. He has an ugly appearance, how can he be qualified to be invited to be a man and be respected, it is not easy.

Wang Yan said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then stay, work hard, and do things with peace of mind." ”

He Yi was a little moved in his heart, and arched his hand and said: "Obey orders!" ”

The two chatted happily, and He Yi began to introduce the situation in Yangdu County to Wang Yan again, and at noon, he arranged Wang Yan's accommodation and lunch.

With the help of He Yi, Wang Yan quickly became familiar with the situation in Yangdu County.

On the third day of his tenure, Wang Yan appointed Yang He as the chief secretary of Yangdu County to assist He Yi in handling government affairs. What is the benefit of government affairs and Yang He's maintenance, Wang Yan only needs to pay attention to it from time to time, and he doesn't need to spend a lot of thought.

Therefore, Wang Yan devoted a lot of time and energy to the training of army soldiers.

Wang Yan took over the army and learned about the situation of the entire army, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. There were less than 300 soldiers in Yangdu County, and their combat effectiveness was extremely weak, almost similar to the situation in Nancheng County at the beginning, so even the county lieutenant was vacant, and no one served as it.

In such a situation, the foundation is thin and the foundation is weak, but it is easy to control and easy to change.

The army can be formulated according to Wang Yan's ideas.

Wang Yan appointed Huang Zhong as a county lieutenant and began to recruit a large number of soldiers. With the money Wang Yan brought from Nancheng County, he could easily equip an army of 1,000 people.

Huang Zhong, with Wang Yan's support, made drastic adjustments to the army and began to train soldiers. In fact, the strengthening of the army played a certain role in Wang Yan's control of Yangdu County.

What is the benefit of government affairs, Yang He presides, and the army is in charge of Huang Zhong, and everything is carried out in an orderly manner.

Half a year, like sand between the fingers, slipped away quietly.

This year, Wang Yan entered the age of sixteen.

This year, Emperor Ling of Han is going to go underground to see the ancestors of the old Liu family.

This year, the 'Great Demon King' Dong Zhuo will be stationed in Luoyang.

This year, the great era of the late Han Dynasty completely kicked off.

It is the spring of March, the grass grows and the eagle flies, and Yangdu County is full of vitality and beautiful landscape.

On this day, the county government.

In the study, Wang Yan, He Yi, and Yang Hebin were seated.

Wang Yan smiled slightly and said, "It's already March, and the farming has basically been arranged. Therefore, the official plans to take the officials of the county government to go out. I have been in Yangdu County for half a year, and I rarely go out to see. Take advantage of this opportunity to walk around and see more. ”

He Yi continued: "Yangdu County has beautiful mountains and rivers, and there are many scenery to watch. ”

"Report!"

At this moment, a loud voice came from outside the study.

"Come in!" Wang Yan commanded.

The door opened, and a soldier in armor hurried in.

Seeing this, Wang Yan raised his eyebrows and asked, "What happened?" "Under normal circumstances, Huang Zhong would not send soldiers to the county office, and would wait for Wang Yan to go to the barracks to deal with things. Now directly let the soldiers pass it on, Wang Yan knew that something big might happen.

The soldier clasped his fists and saluted, and reported: "Lord Qiyu, the county lieutenant has just received the news that Kaiyang County is surrounded by the Yellow Turban thief Guan Hai and his army. Now, Yangdu County may also face a crisis, and the county lieutenant invites the adults to go to the barracks to discuss matters. ”

Wang Yan's eyes froze, and he waved his hand and said, "Got it." ”

Immediately, Wang Yan stood up, took He Yi and Yang He, and went straight to the barracks out of the county office.
