Confucius said: "Only women and villains are difficult to raise, those who are close are not inferior, and those who are far away are resentful." "In fact, this standard is too high, even if it is a gentleman, it may not be inferior if it is near, and it must be complaining if it is far away, if you don't believe it, look at Qu Yuan's other families...... Later, Fan Zhongyan said: "If you live in a temple, you are worried about its people, and if you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you are worried about its king." "But when his old man Qingli was demoted and lived in a foreign state, was he just worried about his monarch and had no resentment? That's just impossible.

Therefore, it is Xun and Sima Yi who analyzed that Liu Yi has squeezed out Xiangping for Yangyi, and there must be resentment in his heart, if he can smash his gap and shake his will, it is very likely that he will be pulled into his own chariot, or at least sit in Lelang and watch the success or failure. Liaodong Dele Lang is to stretch out his arm, and if he can envelop Liu Yi, he will cut off this arm, which can sweep away considerable obstacles to his own eastward advance.

However, the question is, who should be sent to Lelang County to lobby Liu Yi? Sima Yi is the guard of a county, and it is impossible to leave the defensive ground without permission, and Guan Jing and Zhuge Liang both intend to ask for orders. Although Xun thinks that with the ability of these two people, he will be able to move Liu Yi, but this trip is not without danger, just in terms of the navigation skills of these years, the unpredictable wind and waves on the Bohai Sea are enough to make people frightened - there is no need to capsize, if it is like Xun and Liang Mao in the past, no coincidence, it is blown to Liaodong by a wind, then how can it be good? It is Xun Dan who can't leave these two, how dare they let them take risks?

But fortunately, just as he was hesitating and hesitating, suddenly two more people came to Jicheng to meet each other.

The first is Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ziyu, the former doorman of Xun and Zhuge Liang's brother, who has completed the three-year mourning and will go back to Xu Capital to take the old way. Send the brothers Zhuge to Taixue. Then it is time to pack up and set off. Come to Youzhou to seek refuge with the old master and brother. The second Nai Xun's clan brother is Jun is Zigao, who was originally an official in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Naite resigned to vote.

Shi Jun originally planned for his own future very well, and put Baili Hou (county order) inappropriately, deliberately passed Guò Shixun's door, entered Sikong Mansion as a subordinate official, and wanted to directly hug Cao Cao's thick legs. Problem: Although Cao Cao's legs are thick, there are more people who want to hug. Yes Jun is Xun support, it is natural to eat this bowl of public rice, if you want to stand out and go further, the difficulty is really not ordinarily high. Especially after Xun was released as the assassin of Youzhou, Shi Jun was trembling and walking on thin ice every day - Cao Cao was powerful, and his temper had grown recently, and the subordinate officials of the Prime Minister were guilty at every turn - his heart said that I would stay for another year or two, and I had to have a nervous breakdown (of course, there was no such term at that time).

He wrote to his two elder brothers to ask for advice, not including the eldest brother, who was a complete and corrupt man. I don't understand the practice at all - it's a wide time to drive for Xuzhou, and say that you either come over to help me. Either go to Dengzhou and follow Daddy; It was the captain of Tuntian, but he persuaded him to go to Youzhou to take refuge in Shixun.

is a wide character, is Jun was trained by this brother when he was a teenager, although he is a mother, but in fact he is not close; Although he didn't get along with Shixun for a long time - that was also compared with his three brothers, in fact, he was originally in Qingzhou and Xuzhou, and later worked as officials in the same prime minister's mansion, and his days were not short - but it is more reasonable. So after thinking about it repeatedly, I still went directly to Youzhou.

Yes Xun can afford this "clan brother", this person is smart-minded, although he was naughty and jumped out when he was a teenager, he has become much more stable after becoming a family, and he is no longer the "Wuxia Ameng" of the past, and he is just impressed. So he suddenly thought, why not make Shi Jun go to Lelang to lobby Liu Yi?

Sooner or later, he will fight Liaodong, and after fighting Liaodong, he still wants to subdue Le Lang, and there are only three ways in front of Liu Yi: either to give a martyrdom to the Gongsun family, or to die by himself, or to surrender to himself. Then sending his dearest brother to lobby shows sincerity, and Liu Yi may be more easily impressed. Besides, Jun has his own brother who is the history of the assassin of Youzhou, and a father who is the history of the assassin of Dengzhou, and his identity is more prominent than Guan Jing and Zhuge Liang, who have no heels, as long as he can go to Lelang safely, even if Liu Yi is not allowed, he should not dare to embarrass him.

So he summoned Shi Jun to come over and ask, saying that this matter is quite dangerous, are you willing to go? Yes, Jun is not lacking in adventurous spirit, saying that since the seventh brother has a life, the younger brother An has no reason to obey? Besides, if you can move Liu Yi and return to the court after leaving the grandson, this is a great achievement, brother, you can say a few more good words to me when the time comes, the merit of gaining the land is equal to the military merit, and the feudal marquis may not be delusional - I am willing to go!

So Shi Xun gathered all the information related to Liaodong and Lelang, handed it over to Shi Jun for careful study, and then gave him the title of Youzhou Zhizhong, and sent him to take his own letters, go to sea by boat, and go to Lelang.

Zhizhong is also known as Gong Cao, the election of the main state and the assessment of state officials, and the left and right arms of the assassin history, but under the subordinates of Shixun, it is just an empty title that seems to be prominent. The state officials were all self-reliant, so Shi Xun simply overthrew the old model - the original structure was set up in response to the supervision powers of the earliest states, and it was completely out of touch with the current first-level administrative divisions - learning from Shang Shutai, subdividing the functions of the assassin into twelve Cao, each with its own control. For example, Zhuge Liang's main project and water conservancy are engaged in Gongcao; Zhuge Jin is the main household, farmer, and engaged in Cao; Guo Huai is in charge of Hu and the affairs of the city, and is engaged in the city Cao; Sun Wen, Qin Yi, and Dian Wei were in charge of military politics and engaged in the ...... for the left and right soldiers Cao

Let's say that Jun has sorted out his belongings, and it is Xun who specially appointed Jing Huanxiao to lead ten cronies to guard him, and then personally sent him out of Jicheng and said goodbye to the suburbs for ten miles. Shi Xun repeatedly cared for him, saying that your safety, brother, is the most important thing, and if something happens, you should flee back quickly, and don't put yourself in danger for the sake of meritorious service. Shi Jun smiled and agreed, but when he was leaving, he suddenly remembered something:

"The former residence of the seventh brother is Lelang, there can be acquaintances in the township, and can he be a guide for the younger brother?" Do you have any acquaintances in Lelang County, can you help me lead the way, pull a line or something?

When Shixun heard this question, he couldn't help but "chuckle" in his heart, and secretly said that it was bad, how could I forget about it...... But it's all come to this point, and it's not good to stop Shi Jun and not let him go. So I had to perfunctory: "It's more than ten years old in a hurry, even if you are acquainted, the material is scattered...... "I can't help you, don't deliberately look for it."

Shi Jun asked again: "My uncle was killed in the past, and I don't know where he was buried?" The younger brother went to offer sacrifices. ”

It was Xun Xin who said that I don't know where he was buried, and I don't even know if he has a whole corpse or if he has fallen to the ground! With a roll of his eyes, he hurriedly took care of it: "I buried my deceased father hastily that day, and I didn't dare to reveal where I was. I'm afraid that Liu Yi will know that my father's grave is there, so he will use this to coerce him, and he will give birth to branches...... "You are absolutely absolute, you can't mention this matter to others!"

Although Shi Jun felt that Shi Xun was thinking a little too far and was too careful, but after all, it was someone else's father, and he didn't care, what else could he say? I had to say yes, and then beat the horse and left.

That is, starting from Jixian County, galloping to the southeast, and arriving at Quanzhou by time. Quanzhou County, Yuyang County, the southeasternmost seaside, is later Tianjin, but half of Tianjin is still sinking in the sea this year. In the vicinity of Jintang Road, there was a small port where several sea vessels were parked to carry Shijun to the Korean Peninsula.

In fact, China's shipbuilding technology was already the best in the world at this time, and Jiangdong, Jingzhou, and even Yizhou each had a huge number of surface troops -- the problem was that they were all inland fleets, but the "navy" in the pure literal sense had not yet appeared. Previously, Gongsun Dunan took Yingzhou and took Lelang in the east, although a large number of sea ships were called, but they were not real warships, just for the purpose of carrying troops. The reason is also very simple, there are not many ships on the sea, and the possibility of running into each other is even smaller, and it is basically impossible to fight, so why do you need warships?

Shixun was ambitious and wanted to create a navy, and when the time came, all the major ports on the Liaodong Peninsula would be completely blocked, and the Gongsun family would lose the benefits of maritime trade and would soon fall into a financial crisis. It's a pity that it costs too much money to build warships, and it costs even more money to raise a navy...... Therefore, he had no choice but to vigorously subsidize and support the maritime merchants, which could be regarded as raising troops for the people -- if there was really going to be a war in the future, he would directly turn the merchant ships into warships, and the sailors would be organized into sailors, and they would not necessarily be weaker than the ships of Liaodong -- even if they were not considered navy, they could always be regarded as pirates.

Now there are seven maritime merchants directly under the control of the Youzhou Prefecture, and more than 20 large and small sea vessels, mainly from Quanzhou to the sea, transport goods to the Jiaodong Peninsula, and communicate with their uncle Shiyi. One of them, under the instruction of Shixun, also made a coastal route from Dengzhou to Xuzhou -- the destination was Guangling, where Chen Deng, and his own family was easy to talk to.

From Dengzhou to Liaodong, and even to Lelang, it is also an old route, but there are fewer ships. Now Jun is to take this road, first went to Dengzhou to visit his father, and then set off from Dongmu County, it is rare smooth sailing, a few days later to Changcen. That is, he changed to an inland river boat in Changcen County, went up the river, and finally arrived in North Korea.

When the news was reported to the county government, Liu Yi was on fire. He hung pictures everywhere and searched for the clan, but for fear of leaking the news, he did not dare to write the name of the clan, only said that he was a Jiangyang thief, and those who reported his whereabouts would be rewarded, and those who could be killed or caught would be rewarded. It's a pity that for more than two months, nothing was found. Inquire along the Lieshui coast, but there are also a few local gentry who still remember the affairs of the clan in the past, but since the clan broke down, they all avoided it. Although the situation has changed, Le Lang has changed hands, Shi Xun really wants to come back, and theoretically the old crimes can be cleared, but Shi Xun really hasn't gone to them.

After Liu Yi listened to the report of his subordinates, he instinctively felt that something was wrong - that Shixun was alone, if there was no answer, no refuge, An Neng could go to this wild place, and even build a monument for his father's tomb? There's no way no one has seen him. simply found an excuse for all the gentry to raid their homes, arrested them and tortured them for interrogation, but as a result, they made a small fortune, and there was still no reliable news.

At this moment, when he suddenly heard the news that Junyuan had come to worship in Youzhou, Liu Yi couldn't help frowning-I can't find a suitable way yet, it was Hongfu who sent someone first...... How perfect it would be if I could offer the head of the clan here, but it's a pity...... (To be continued......)
