The court's reward for Liu Yu is indeed not low, plus the three dukes, the marquis, and the emperor of Han Ling who dared to love was also scared by the yellow scarf, and the urgent reports from all over the country were reported to the Beijing division like snow, either this city and that county were lost, or this official and that official were killed, and finally the news of the great victory came from Youzhou, and the spirit was uplifted, and the natural reward was also extraordinarily heavy.

Looking at Zou Jing's appearance, he must have a lot of benefits, Liu Ze said to Liu Yu: "Congratulations to Uncle Hexi." ”

Liu Yu's face turned red, but he was a little embarrassed, he knew very well in his heart, Zhuojun Dajie said it bluntly, in fact, it was Liu Ze's own credit, and he had no relationship with him, including the civil and military officials in Youzhou. ”

Liu Ze secretly wondered, this Liu Yu is a little weird, is there anything he can't say in public. Liu Ze smiled and greeted the officials one by one, and then followed Liu Yu to the back hall.

Liu Yu retreated left and right, and said with a solemn expression: "In the recital of reporting to the court for my uncle, the details of the battle of Zhuojun were truthfully reported, and at the same time, I also recommended the virtuous nephew to serve as the Taishou, but the emperor's holy decree did not mention half a point of the meritorious nephew's merits, and officials at all levels in Youzhou were rewarded, but there was no virtuous nephew." This matter also made my uncle very ashamed, I was ready to play the court, resign from the Marquis of Qiu, and ask for credit for the virtuous nephew again, if the emperor does not allow it, I will also resign from the history of the assassin of Youzhou. ”

Liu Yu was a little frightened in this matter, for fear that Liu Ze would mistakenly think that he was concealing the truth, falsely reporting his military exploits, and taking Liu Ze's merits as his own, but Liu Ze knew that Liu Yu was a loyal elder and a humble gentleman, and would never do what these little people did.

Liu Ze said: "Uncle must not, the court has its own rules, the little nephew is a white body, how can he jump into the dragon gate in one day?" What's more, the uncle has to be named the marquis, it is really deserved, if it is not for the uncle Zhang Bang to recruit talents, the little nephew has the opportunity to join the army, if it is not for the uncle's grace, how can the little nephew have the opportunity to break the enemy, for the handsome, can judge the situation, strategize for the handsome, Zhuojun victory, the uncle is the first merit, and the court's reward is also well deserved. ”

Liu Yu smiled bitterly and said, "The virtuous nephew said this, which really made Uncle Wei ashamed. Hard work, indifferent to fame and fortune, Ze is born, moistening all things, your name is very good, people are like their names, people are like their names. ”

Liu Ze smiled indifferently and said: "Uncle has won the award, the little nephew is still young, and he is only here in Japan, there is an opportunity, such a national disaster is at the head, if he only seeks personal fame, how can it be done by a gentleman?" ”

"Is the virtuous nephew having some holidays with Zhang Rang, the middle attendant?" Liu Yu asked coldly.

Liu Ze was stunned and said, "Why does my uncle ask this?" ”

Liu Yu's face was a little dignified. "I asked the court envoy privately, although he never said it explicitly, but he also vaguely mentioned that this matter is very likely to be related to Zhang Rang, if it weren't for his slander to the emperor, how could the emperor sit back and watch the merits of the virtuous nephew."

Dare to love this one, Liu Ze really didn't expect Zhang Rang to repay him, waiting for himself here, and said with a wry smile: "A few years ago, when I was doing business, I had some entanglements with Zhang Rang, I didn't expect these Zhongjuan to have a strong sense of revenge, and it was difficult for Zhang Rang to remember me, a little mountain person." ”

Liu Yu sighed: "The eunuch turbid stream is despised by the clear stream, but the power of the ten permanent servants is huge, if they really have the heart to be embarrassed, they are afraid that the virtuous nephew's career will be dusty." ”

"The wish of the little nephew, there are no thieves in the world, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and enjoy peace, as for seeking an official and a half position, it doesn't matter."

"The virtuous nephew is filial piety, but the Sangong Mansion is gracious, and there is no need to go to the capital for the exam. Now that the Huang Chao in Zhuo County has been pacified, the new Tai Shouye has taken office, and his uncle is also preparing to return to Jixian County, and the position of Youzhou Bing Cao is still vacant, hoping that the virtuous nephew can succumb. ”

Liu Yu originally promised Liu Ze the position of Taishou, but the appointment of Taishou came from the court, and the court did not have the right to appoint Liu Yu without permission. The history of the assassin is only an official of 600 stones (of course, Liu Yu is an exception), and the salary of the subordinate officials of the Assassin Mansion is naturally not higher than the salary of the history of the assassin, and the highest history of the assassin is 600 stones, and the other people who are engaged in governance are all 300 to 400 stones.

However, for Liu Ze and his white body, it is shocking to directly hold the official position of 400 stones, you must know that it takes at least seven or eight years to get promoted from being a filial piety official to the position of 400 stones, and some people even spend their lives just being a county lieutenant and county leader, and it is difficult to get promoted. But Liu Yu knew in his heart that Liu Ze's contribution this time would not be too much even if he gave him his position, but with his power, he could only give him a position that Bing Cao was engaged in.

With the increase in the power of the state assassin history, the power of the subordinate officials of the assassin history like Bing Cao has also become greater, not to mention the county magistrate and county order with the same rank, even if it is the county governor of the country, he is often subject to the subordinate officials of the assassin history. But Liu Ze is world-minded, not to mention Youzhou Bing Cao, even if it is the position of Youzhou Assassin, he doesn't care about it now. Youzhou will be Gongsun Zhan's territory in the future, and if you want to develop here, it is tantamount to grabbing food from the tiger's mouth. What's more, Youzhou is a bitter cold land in the extreme north, with a sparse population and a lack of materials, and it is far from being a base for the world to compete for dominance in the future.

Liu Zewan declined: "Thank you uncle for your kindness, but the little nephew may not be competent, the little nephew has promised his mentor Lu Gong before, and he should go to Guangzong to help in the battle after the Youzhou affair is over." The little nephew is ready to resign to his uncle in the near future, and now the danger of Youzhou has been solved, and the imperial edict has been issued, so the little nephew will leave and go to Guangzong to help Lu Gong. ”

Liu Yu nodded silently and said: "The virtuous nephew has the heart of the country with his fists, which is admirable, and Youzhou is indeed not a place for the virtuous nephew to display his talents, and it may be a wiser choice to cast it under Lu Shangshu's account." It's just that I have a failure to my virtuous nephew, and if he has any difficulties with his virtuous nephew, he just has to come to find his uncle. ”

Liu Ze responded, and Fang was about to retreat, and at this time, a small official outside the door reported in a low voice: "Liu Tingshi, there is an urgent report from Qingzhou." ”

Liu Yu was stunned and said hurriedly: "Submit it!" ”

The little official quickly presented the letter, Liu Yu hurriedly opened it and looked at it, his face couldn't help but become solemn, and he sighed halfway.

Liu Ze understood that it should be Gong Jing, the assassin of Qingzhou, who asked for help, and when Muwen arrived, he said, "Why is my uncle sighing? ”

"This is an urgent document from Gong Jing, the history of Qingzhou, the yellow plague is rampant in Qingzhou, most of the counties have fallen, hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans have besieged Linzi City recently, the offensive is very urgent, Linzi is in danger, so Gong Jing wrote for help."

"Qingzhou and Youzhou are far apart, why doesn't Gong Qingzhou ask for help from Zuo Jinzhou County, and ask for help from Youzhou near and far."

"The Yellow Rebellion in Yanyu Prefecture, which is adjacent to Qingzhou, is even more rampant, and these prefectures and counties are mostly too busy to take care of themselves, where there are surplus soldiers and horses to ask for help from Qingzhou, even if the Yellow Chaos is not too strict in Xuzhou, in order to protect themselves, they are not willing to send troops to Qingzhou. In fact, Gong Jing and I are brothers-in-law, this time Qingzhou is in trouble, and we can't stand idly by in public or private, but ...... Hey......"

"That being the case, my uncle should have sent troops to go, and now that Youzhou is at the beginning of peace, the army is prosperous, and this time he will go south to rescue Qingzhou and return triumphantly."

"Although there are many soldiers and horses in Youzhou now, there are no unscrupulous generals and no capable people to lead the troops, so how can they win when they go south to Qingzhou?"

"Captain Zou was born in the Northern Army and is worthy of this position."

Liu Yu shook his head and said: "Zou Jing is more than successful, but he is not brave enough to take on this heavy responsibility." In fact, this time he went south to Qingzhou, it was none other than the virtuous nephew, but the virtuous nephew had already agreed to Duke Lu, and the battle of Guangzong was related to the success or failure of the decisive battle between the court and the Yellow Turban, and the weight was heavier than that of Qingzhou. ”

"The little nephew recommends one person, but he can take on this important responsibility." Liu Ze lost no time in recommending Liu Yu.

Liu Yu was overjoyed and said, "Virtuous nephew, please speak." ”

"The eldest brother of the little nephew Liu Bei has always been courageous, and now he is the chief of the right Beiping County, under the command of Sun Zhan, who led the troops to help fight Zhuo County a few days ago, and is now stationed outside the city.

Liu Bei Tiankai's meeting with Liu Yu yesterday was just a routine matter, and he didn't talk much about it at all, and naturally he didn't leave a deep impression on Liu Yu. At this time, Liu Yucai exclaimed: "It turns out that the long history of Gongsun Zhan's subordinates turned out to be Brother Ling, I am really confused, and I haven't even figured this out." ”

"My brother has been an official in Beijun, and even I haven't seen each other for a long time."

"That being the case, Zou Jing can be ordered to be the main general, Liu Bei and Tian Kai as deputy generals, lead 5,000 troops, and immediately go south to rescue Qingzhou. Is it good to think that the nephew is arranged like this? ”

did not let Liu Bei directly serve as the main general, but it was not what Liu Ze expected, although Liu Yu and Gongsun Chan did not turn their faces, but Gongsun Chan supported the army and respected himself, and he faintly had a tendency to fight against Liu Yu. In this sensitive period, no matter how much Liu Yu said, he could not hand over all the military power of Youzhou to Gongsun Zhan's cronies.

"Uncle arranged it very well."

Qingzhou was in danger, Liu Yu immediately drafted an official document, and Liu Ze took the opportunity to resign.
