If it is confirmed that Shixun is indeed pretending to be a child of the clan, then this nature may be even worse than Shiyi's change of surname, and it will make Shixun's reputation plummet to the bottom. However, Yi Shixun's current status in the court and in the Confucian forest is enough to cause a major earthquake in the political and ideological circles - the literary and artistic circles say that literati and non-practitioners abound - so Liu Yi and Shi Jun did not dare to get involved in this matter, and if they knew, they should not know, and it is best to stay out of the matter as much as possible.

Maybe the two of them will still think from time to time: I know what this is for? It's no different from flying disasters!

Therefore, although Liu Yi wrote a letter and gave Shixun a hint about the tombstone—the tombstone was not seen by him alone, and he couldn't hide it after all—he never said that Zhen's Xun was still there. It's that Xun is just guessing the truth that is gradually approaching, and he doesn't plan to poke this layer of window paper in front of Liu Yi. Therefore, when he first arrived in Lelang, he sent Jing Huanxiao to inform Liu Yi, saying that I have an elder by my side, and you should be more respectful to me and give me more face - of course, I didn't expect Liu Yi to pay a big salute and consider himself a protégé - I wanted to use Liu Yi's attitude to coerce and remind the clan; Later, the two confronted each other, and it was Xun Xian who implied that the imperial court trusted Liu Yi enough to help him, and as long as he had his own help, his position as Lelang Taishou would be unshakable, and then warned Liu Yi to guard against it tightly in case the villain colluded inside and outside - that is, Zhenshi Xun ran out to find evidence. However, the words were never clear, only saying: "The former or the dirty, now is like the passing water...... Friends make friends, needless to say. I am the one who is watching. Heart also. ”

Let's not talk about the past. Even if you hide something from me, I don't plan to pursue it, the key is your heart, is it towards me?

Therefore, it is impossible for Shixun to ask Liu Yi to open the grave for an autopsy, and Liu Yi will not take it upon himself to dig up the grave of Shixun's father, although he already knows that it is not his own father. So he calmly pointed to the grave and said dig it, one is to deliberately test Yi and Shixun, and the other is - even if there are no bones in it, so what? Did I mention it was in it? It took so many years before the burial and the erection of a monument. Isn't it normal to not be able to find a bone?

Besides, I've already said that I asked Liu Yi to help build the tomb, and you can go to Liu Yi if you have something!

Of course, after observing the words and looks, Shi Xun had already guessed that this was just a well-dressed mound, so Jun urged him to move the burial quickly, and he deliberately smiled slightly: "I'm afraid there are only well-dressed ears in this......"

Shi Yi was anxious on the spot, but he didn't dare to attack Shi Xun again, he just pointed at his son Shi Jun and scolded: "If you kill this person, I am afraid that you will no longer have the bones of your uncle!" "Where are Shiyi's bones buried? That's something that only the Dead Ghost Clan knows.

Yes Jun pursed his lips impatiently, and said in his heart, Dad, are you finished? - "Why did the adults abandon their sons because of the dead bones?" "Do you really want to play our family and your children and grandchildren to death?

It's what Yi Wenyan said. He sat down in the dust, unable to speak anymore.

It's Xun and look, the old man doesn't plan to interject? Well, I'll have the final say. He immediately ordered the servants and servants to come and dig up the graves, and put them in the coffins that had been prepared in advance, and carry them back to the camp. "I am the side of the court guard, I can't leave for a long time, and I am also annoyed that my son will move my father from generation to generation." The matter has come to this, I don't need to give the old man a good look, the matter of the funeral, you can help do it, I won't accompany you, just flash people and go back to Youzhou.

Jun bowed down and agreed, and at the same time asked: "When the matter is finished, I can return to the thistle, and still follow the seventh brother?" "I can do it for you, but you won't want me, will you? Shi Xun smiled slightly: "I treat people, but look at their hearts and ears." As he spoke, he brushed his sleeves away—he didn't even want to see the grave digging process.

However, before leaving, he still pointed to the corpse on the ground to take care of Shi Jun: "In the end, it is the township, and you can't make the birds and birds eat, and the child can be buried well." "This is your genuine brother, if you die, you will die, you can't let him expose the corpse in the wilderness, you can help bury it."

So he left Shi Yi, Shi Jun and others, took his own subordinates, and rode back to Joseon City. Liu Yi has been waiting anxiously in his heart, and when he heard that the envoy had returned, he hurriedly went out of the house to greet him, but he didn't know whether to ask about the result after meeting, and he couldn't see any affection just from Shixun's face. In the end, after a long time, he only held back one sentence: "Do you want to finish your business?" ”

Shi Xun nodded: "When the matter is over, I will leave North Korea tomorrow and set sail from Nanpu to Youzhou." "Liu Yi said, then I'll set up a banquet for you. Shi Xun stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, saying that he didn't need to, and then repeated what he said the day before yesterday, and what he had just said to Shi Jun: "The person I watch is also the heart." ”

He doesn't know why, he always likes to pat people on the shoulder lately, probably because he should be proud of being a leader. This kind of behavior of patting the shoulder is actually not popular in the Shilin of this time and space, so it is not the attitude of the upper officials towards the subordinates, but more like respecting the elders and treating the juniors. But Liu Yi is such a countryman who just eats this set - even if he is older than Xun Wei - immediately bowed to the ground and said: "The heart of the minister attached to Jun Jiwei is now as solid as iron and stone!" ”

simply stopped calling himself by his own name, and the word "minister" came out, as if Xun was his boss.

Shixun really doesn't want to stay in Youzhou anymore, first of all, there is no need for this.

He was ordered by Cao Cao to guard Youzhou that day, firstly, in order to stabilize the north, so that Cao Cao could accumulate strength and prepare for the southern expedition, secondly, he coveted the Gongsun clan of Liaodong, and thirdly, he wanted to cooperate with and support the Xianbei Tuoba Department, and now these purposes can be said to have basically been achieved.

On the one hand, Gongsun has been destroyed, Liaodong has been decided, and even Lelang has been subordinated to the Han court, and Goguryeo is divided internally and has no time to take care of itself. On the other hand, after Cao Dedai was Xun for the history of Shuozhou's assassination, he boiled frogs in warm water for many years, and finally solved the problem of the Meiji Huns. With the support of Xun and Cao De, and the centering of Wu Zhi, the Tuoba Department has gradually become stronger, and it has been able to oppose Ke Bineng and Budugen, etc., with them as a buffer, the frequency and intensity of Xianbei's southward invasion of Han land have been greatly reduced.

Therefore, the north has been decided, and as for the south, it is estimated that Cao Cao will not start a major expedition to the Yangtze River valley in a few years - he must first digest the land in the north of the Yangtze River.

Yes Xun is that there is no need to stay away from the central government and sit in the local government for a long time, and the second is ...... I miss my wife and children a little bit. But more importantly, he had just received a letter from Dong Zhao not long before he went to Lelang, persuading him to return to the court.

As hardcore supporters of Cao Cao, Dong Zhao and the others did their best to lift Cao Cao step by step to the supreme position, so that they could also ascend to heaven with them. Of course, if you want to raise Cao Cao, you must find a suitable reason, for example, Cao Cao was promoted to the prime minister before, which was to take advantage of the east wind of pacifying Jizhou and defeating the Yuan family. When he waited for this southern expedition to Jingxiang, although he lost his troops and lost his generals, he finally got Xiangyang and Xiling, and declared that Wang Shi was a complete victory. So since he has won the battle, he should issue rewards and add officials to the knighthood, the problem is that Cao Cao has no way to ascend!

Cao Cao is the prime minister, this is an ancient official position that has just been restored, and it is stated at the beginning of its establishment that it is above the three princes and the princes, that is to say, in terms of the dignity of status, Cao Cao is second only to the emperor, the crown prince, and the kings with the same surname - among the ministers, he is the most respectful.

If you want Cao Cao to go further, that is the emperor, and then you will usurp the throne? After all, the time is not yet ripe. In Liu Xie's view, if you want to reward Cao Cao, in addition to wealth, there is only one way to add more food, and you can't add up the food without limits-the highest lord of the people is the county marquis, if the county marquis enjoys a county that is comparable to the king or even more food, is that like a word?

Therefore, Dong Zhao and the others discussed that there were two ways to reward Cao Cao. One is virtual, giving Cao Cao Jiuxi, that is, nine kinds of ritual instruments and ceremonial guards that only the Son of Heaven could use before - there is a lot of resistance in this regard, because Cao Cao is not the first to eat grapes, there is a Wang Mang in front, and what Wang Mang did after receiving Jiuxi is obvious to all.

The second way is real, that is, to build a feudal state.

Han Gaozu once swore an oath with his ministers to kill the white horse, stipulating that "if you are not the king of Liu, you are not a meritorious", so the feudal system of the Han Dynasty is only for the clan with the same surname, and only the Liu family can establish the title of the country, or the kingdom, the county, or the Hou country, the county. The feudal marquis with different surnames only have food and no mining, that is, you can only enjoy the output of the fiefdom, but you cannot be in charge of the military and political affairs of the fiefdom. Of course, since the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms", the ministers of various countries have also been appointed by the central government, not only to assist and monitor the princes and princes, but also directly equivalent to the county or county level local governors, and the princes are all set aside.

Dong Zhao and others meant that the imperial court could set up a new vassal state that was not elevated and enjoyed the actual local management rights and rewarded Cao Cao. Because it is a different surname, it is naturally not good to be called a king anymore, and it is inevitable that the marquis will be unknown to everyone, so it can follow the example of the Duke of Zhou, seal a principality, and worship Cao Cao as a duke.

This is a deliberate sidekick. Liu Bang's oath that day was not allowed to appear in a vassal country with a different surname, not just that people with different surnames could not be called "kings", Dong Zhao and they wanted to pick out the words, pick loopholes, and say that if they are called kings, then they will not violate the ancestral teachings - this move will naturally cause a boos from the government and the opposition.

Therefore, Dong Zhaocai hoped that Shi Xun and Cao De, the two relatives of the Cao family, could get rid of local affairs and return to the central government to help him stand on his feet. Whether it is to add nine tins or build a principality, if we can operate two things at the same time, if we can become the best, and at least achieve one at least one at the worst, then Cao Cao can take a step forward and get closer to the supreme position.

Shi Xun received Dong Zhao's letter and immediately summoned Guan Jing to discuss. Guan Jing said This is a good thing, you have to help, but there is one thing, your identity is different from Dong Gongren, you are a relative of the Cao family, and if you are too enthusiastic about this matter, it is inevitable that you will be ridiculed. So you can push it secretly, but don't do it yourself.

Yes Xun asked, then can I go back to Xu Du? Guan Jing said Of course you have to go back, if you return to the capital, even if you don't say a word, as long as you don't know what to do with Dong Zhao's construction, then you can stand on your feet, and you will definitely be able to gather a lot of centrists and wait-and-see factions. Shi Xun nodded slightly, and then smiled faintly: "The water comes naturally, and I am still the one who is plotting, and the future will be the same." (To be continued......)
