Chapter 318: Hebei Zhen Family
"Ministers, see the king!"
Cao Cao stepped into the hall, and the seven people who were already waiting for Cao Cao in the hall saw it, saluted Cao Cao one after another, and walked to Cao Cao, who sat down on the main seat, looking at the complicated expressions of the seven people below, he secretly thought that something was wrong with him, and said in a deep voice: "You came here to see Lonely, could it be that there is something wrong with Chang'an?" ”
At this moment, from the north of the Central Plains Road to Cao Cao, the city wall is planted with a black background of the golden Cao character flag, can have a problem, the biggest possibility, is at this time still from time to time the war in Chang'an Guanzhong.
Speaking of which, Le Jin did not disappoint Cao Cao, only with tens of thousands of people, he was able to block the attack of the remnants of Xiliang Ma Teng and Dong Zhuo for nearly a year, if he really received the fall of Chang'an or unfavorable news at this time, Cao Cao would not be too angry or blamed.
The seven people of His Royal Highness were stunned, and they didn't expect Cao Cao to ask about the news of Chang'an first, but soon, as soon as their minds turned, they understood why.
"Back to the king, in Chang'an, although General Le has recently passed a book, indicating that the pressure on Chang'an is increasing day by day, but also in his heart, General Le also said that he can also rely on the majestic city wall of Chang'an to block the attack of Ma Teng and the remnants of Xiliang, so you don't have to worry."
The words of Chen Gong, the prime minister of Shangshu Province, made Cao Cao secretly relieved in his heart, and he couldn't help but wonder, and said: "That being the case, then why did you come here to meet Gu together today?" ”
Xi Zhicai, the prime minister of Zhongshu Province, glanced at the other six people, and according to what they had discussed before, he stood up and said to Cao Cao, who was the head of the company: "Your Majesty, there is news from Yecheng, saying that there is an auspicious general in its place, and the county guard of Yecheng does not dare to act rashly, so I hereby report this news." The ministers came here today to meet the king in order to inform him of this news. ”
"Xiangrui?"
Cao Cao frowned, although he traveled from the afterlife, but for Xiangrui, there is a hint of mythology. I still thank you for not being sensitive, not to mention that the appearance of this auspicious rui is still in Yecheng today.
Yecheng is the county seat of Jizhou, in the previous life. The appearance of the famous Tongquetai in later generations has a trace of auspicious influence, and later Cao Cao called the king, and even Cao Pi, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei called the emperor, all of which have auspicious appearances.
It can be said that the appearance of auspicious rui can also be regarded as a temptation of the subordinates, or even persecution, after all, only Cao Cao can go to the next level, then their official position and status can be further improved, of course, a lord can let his ministers create auspicious things. This in itself is equivalent to the recognition and admiration of the subordinates for the king.
Looking at the seven people below, Cao Cao's eyes were inexplicable, and he suddenly wanted to know whether there was any shadow of them in Yecheng Xiangrui.
"The auspicious thing, Qing and the others can be determined, whether it is a fictitious thing, and whether it is directed and acted by the Yecheng county guard?"
Seeing that Cao Cao was not happy because of auspiciousness, nor was he angry because of it. The six Shangshu and the two prime ministers present couldn't figure out what Cao Cao was thinking, so they could only find it step by step according to what Cao Cao said.
"Return to your lordship. After the Ministry of Rites heard that there was an auspicious thing in Yecheng, it had already sent people to Yecheng to investigate, and at the same time, the head of the Zhen family from Yecheng wanted to offer to the king today, it was the auspicious thing found in Yecheng, and he was also guarding Yecheng. The person who appeared in the auspicious future. ”
Every time auspicious rui appears, no matter how to worship the sky is a must, in order to thank God, and the matter of sacrificing heaven is undoubtedly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites.
However, before the people sent out by Lu Su came back, the Jizhou family, who is also the head of the Zhen family of Hebei Fushang, had already come to Lu Su, claiming to be auspicious, which is why, before waiting for the true news of Yecheng Xiangrui, Lu Su had to bite the bullet, and the rest of the four Shangshu, the two prime ministers, told Cao Cao about Yecheng Xiangrui.
"The head of the Zhen family? Passing him in, lonely enough to see what the auspicious things he offered were! ”
A trace of fun flashed away from Cao Cao's eyes, of course Cao Cao knew about the Zhen family, and it could even be said that he had heard the name earlier, not because the Zhen family was one of the Hebei families, not because of the wealth of the Zhen family, although the wealth of the Zhen family was huge, it was a bit too much to say that the wealth was comparable to the country, but it was not far off.
But this was not enough for Cao Cao to really write down, after all, in China, the status and life of merchants depended on the ideas of kings and officials, and it was a pipe dream for Chinese merchants to manipulate the government with their wealth like those "companions" in the West.
What really made Cao Cao remember the Zhen family was because of a person, a daughter of Allure who was famous in later generations, Zhen Ji or Zhen Mi, a person who led Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi's father and son, all fascinated, a woman who asked Cao Zhi to write the famous Luo Shen Fu for him, and a woman who gave birth to Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming and was respected as Empress Wenzhao Zhen.
Although it is impossible for Cao Cao at this time to automatically lower his identity and go to the Zhen family because of Zhen Ji, since the Zhen family's family has come to Chen Du, he might as well take advantage of the situation to relieve the curiosity in his heart.
"Your Majesty, Zhen Yan of the Zhen family is already waiting outside the palace!"
"Pass him in!"
Watching the sergeant Cao who entered the hall to retreat again, Cao Cao knocked on the handrail, quietly looked at the person who bowed slightly and walked into the hall in small steps, and asked, "You are the head of the Zhen family?" ”
Zhen Yan, Zhen Mi's second brother, felt a burst of nervousness in his heart when he just entered this hall, which was not magnificent, but full of solemnity and solemnity, and when he heard the indifferent question coming from above, his nervous hands were sweating slightly.
Zhen Yan, compared to his father Zhen Yi, who pushed the Zhen family to the top, can be said to be not a little bit worse, he can become the head of the family, it can only be said that his luck is good, as the eldest brother Zhen Yu died early, so that he could ascend to the position of the head of the Zhen family.
However, although it is the Zhen family, the power of the Zhen family is still in the hands of one woman, that is, Zhen Yi's main wife, the Zhang family.
Thinking of his mother's explanation and expectations when he came to Chendu, as well as what his little sister said, Zhen Yan took a deep breath, suppressed the tension and panic in his heart, and bowed down and said: "Back to the king, it is the head of the Zhen family below." (To be continued.) )
