Chapter 18, Guanglu Xincheng

PS: See the exclusive story behind "Han Wei Wenkui", listen to your more suggestions for the novel, pay attention to the starting point Chinese network public account (WeChat add friends - add public account - enter ddxiaoshuo can be), quietly tell me!

In the original history, in May of the eighteenth year of Jian'an, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty made the imperial historian Xi Xi worry about holding the festival, and ordered Cao Cao to be the Duke of Wei, all in Ye, with Hedong, Hanoi, Wei County, Zhao State, Zhongshan, Changshan, Julu, Anping, Ganling, and Pingyuan Fan ten counties of Jizhou as the territory of Wei.

Well, this Duke of Wei is equal to ten princes and kings.

Jizhou was originally a big state, when China sowed chaos, scholars fled from Jinai, migrated from all over the world, Jizhou is a good place where the distance is relatively close, the land is vast, and it is easy to swell. According to Yuan Shao, he was able to be strong in the world for a time, and Cao Cao got it, so he loved it very much, and he clung to the title of Jizhou Mu and refused to let go. Do you say that he has become the prime minister, and he is also the pastor of Jizhou, like words?

But there are more things that don't like words. In the seventeenth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao divided the three counties of Hanoi, the four counties of Dong County, the three counties of Julu, the first county of Guangping, and the three counties of Zhaoguo, a total of 14 counties, all of which were included in Wei County, making Wei County the largest county in the country in an unprecedented way. Why? Because of his Jizhou Mu's seat of Yecheng, it is within Wei County......

Then at the beginning of the second year, an edict was issued to redivide the states and restore the legendary Yugong Kyushu. Nominally for retro, its real purpose is to expand the scope of Jizhou - because ancient Kyushu did not have a state, and it was within Jizhou.

Zhang Sui of the Ming Dynasty said: "The three Huan sarcastically made the three armies, and the "Zhou Li" was combined, and its ambition was to seize the power of the humble office. Cao Cao satirized Han Fu Kyushu. Cooperate with "Yu Gong". Its ambition is to expand the state and benefit its land. Whoever is a traitor who desires to help his evil plotters. It's not like a scripture citation, but it's like a! ”

So when the Wei State was established, he directly cut half of the land of the new Jizhou to Cao Cao, and the number of counties was made up to ten, which was one more than the old Jizhou......

It's ridiculous to think about this, Cao Cao, you are already a prime minister, and the so-called Han land is actually no different from your own territory. Why do you only think that Wei County and Jizhou are your biological sons, and they are all raised by your stepmother everywhere?

Moreover, there was also a huge military and political problem, that is, Cao Cao put his base camp in Jizhou, and from then on, the Central Military Region was not located in Xudu, which was close to the hinterland of the Central Plains, but in Yecheng, north of the Yellow River. Cao Cao's face-to-face enemies, one is Sun Quan in Jiangdong, and the other is Liu Bei in Western Shu, which is relatively remote, so it is even more 108,000 miles away from the heart of the Cao family. Whenever there is a war. They all have to be busy transferring mobile troops from Yecheng, and they haven't gotten to the place yet. The daylilies are all cold.

Cao Cao's many conquests against Sun Quan, and even Xiahou Yuan's death in Hanzhong, Guan Yu's threat to the Central Plains for a time were all the consequences of this wrong strategic deployment!

Therefore, Shi Xun proposed it to Xun You today, saying that the address of the new principality must be placed in the hinterland of the Central Plains, so that it can be convenient to radiate to all directions, and Hebei cannot go to Hebei categorically. Second, try not to give too many counties to the new country, but try to keep the "slander" to a minimum.

In this timeline, Shixun believes that as long as he has Xun's support, his idea is very likely to come true. First of all, because of the advance of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Cao Cao was not old enough to pay too much attention to false names and ignore practice; Secondly, Cao Cao in this time and space did not love Jizhou too much because the old foundation was relatively stable and he was quite comfortable fighting the Yuan family, and the position of Jizhou pastor had already been handed over; Third, the most important point is that since the state has been divided, it is not good to restore any unreliable things such as "Yugong Kyushu" in the short term.

If you want to cross the state, it is estimated that even Cao Cao himself will not be able to erase this face to ask for it - if it were not so, he would not have to deliberately restore the so-called "Yugong Kyushu" in the original history. Nowadays, except for the remote Liangzhou and Jiaozhou, the other prefectures have been split into two, or even divided into three (Jing, Yi, Yang), each state has a maximum of six counties, and it is impossible to think of ten counties - Shi Xun estimates that this is the upper limit of the territory of the new principality.

Under this premise, using Xun's influence and compressing it as much as possible can limit the "slander" that Cao Cao may encounter to the minimum.

At the moment, he was about to put his ideas together and presented them to Xun You, Xun Gongda showed admiration on his face, and said sincerely: "Hongfu is really a pillar of the country, and I can't wait." "Yes Xun said that you don't have to be in a hurry to praise me, I am far away from your concept, and it is even farther away from Xun Lingjun, but in this matter, we still have room for cooperation, so we might as well put aside the dispute for the time being and develop together...... Ah no, let's work together to make Dong Zhao's bad thing a good thing.

After sending Xun You away, it was Xun Zhao who came from someone to fetch water, washed his face, tried to calm his mind as much as possible, and tried to leave this matter behind him - anyway, it was inconvenient for him to speak, and Xun had to go to Dong Zhao to fight the cow. In a sense, this is also his own use of the Xun family as a robbery, thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little proud......

As the year passed, Shixun finally officially assumed the post of Guangluxun and began his first leadership work as a "major ministry of the Central Committee". However, he has no interest in this work, no experience, and a lack of self-confidence in his practical ability, so he specially asked Cao Cao that you have to send me a capable "Cheng" as a supplement. Guangluxun's scope of authority is very wide, the work is complicated, and there are quite a lot of subordinate officials, the most important of which is Guanglu Cheng, than Qianshi - it is Xun Xin who said that if there is a capable Guanglu Cheng, I will use him as Sima Yi in the Shuozhou era, or Zhuge Brother in the Youzhou era.

Cao Cao was full of promises, and sure enough, he would be summoned that day, pointing to a person dressed as a subordinate official of the prime minister's mansion and saying to him: "This love of mine is Peng Geng Ji Xing, and it can be the assistant of Hongfu." ”

It was Xun who looked up and looked at it, and it seemed a little familiar - the prime minister and the president were hundred, and the prime minister's mansion was like the State Council in later generations, and the number of subordinate officials at all levels was huge, even if Xun had been in the prime minister's mansion and came and went from time to time, it was impossible for everyone to be able to name it. Geng Jixing? I don't have an impression, but I am a person who is briefly mentioned in the history books?

While pondering, the other party stepped forward. The deacon was very respectful: "Maoling Gengji." Meet the Guanglu. ”

Geng Ji! If you want to use a comic technique to describe Jixun's mood at the moment. It must have been black lines all over his face, and there were crows flying "quack" overhead......

If you want to talk about Geng Jixing, he really doesn't have an impression, if you say Geng Ji, it's impossible not to know! Even in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", this person has shown a small face - in the twenty-third year of Jian'an, Geng Ji, who was then the Shaofu, conspired with the imperial physician Ling Jihui (Yizuo Jiping), Prime Minister Sizhi Wei Huang and others in Xudu to raise troops and rebel against Cao Cao. Defeated and annihilated by the Ju clan. Not only that, but they also hit the prime minister Changshi Wang Bi, the director zhì Wang Bi died, Cao Cao hurriedly rushed back to Xu Du from Yecheng, because of the heartache Wang Bi's death, there was a big purge in the court, and countless bureaucrats who had Han families or just rode the wall fell to the ground......

For the Cao family, this is a big traitor! Cao Cao actually sent him to me as his deputy?!

Shi Xun was still full of depression, so he listened to Cao Cao's introduction and said: "Geng Jixing is a good Marquis (Geng Yi)." Loyalty, especially good at government affairs. From my seven years, quite a heart. If it weren't for Hongfu's request, I wouldn't have been able to give it to you. "That means, I have carefully selected one to give you, you have to be grateful!

It's Xun Xindao, who said that Cao Cao is "difficult to dazzle and fake"? There was such a big traitor lurking beside him, but he couldn't see it clearly at all, and thought that since Geng Ji started from his own shogunate, of course he had the same heart as himself. I wanted to refuse-if this kid still follows the old path of history, will it affect me in the future? But I couldn't think of a suitable excuse for the moment. Sue sù Cao Cao, this guy's heart is towards the Han family? You can't say that on the surface. Sue sù Cao Cao, this guy will rebel against you in the future? Won't you become a fortune-teller?!

The brain turned around repeatedly, but the body instinctively acted and returned the salute to Geng Ji. Cao Cao said, I will play the Son of Heaven tomorrow, make Shangshu issue an edict, and entrust Geng Ji to Shou Guanglucheng, the two of you must work together to manage this big mess for me, and also manage it well-"With the talent of Hongfu and the ability of Ji Xing, it is expected to live up to my expectations." ”

As a result, Xun had no choice but to accept this fait accompli - Cao Cao was a resourceful and decisive man, but if you want to overturn what he has identified, you must have enough reasons to convince him. If the lord is replaced by Liu Biao and others, he will be close to Cai Mao as a Xun, and it is estimated that as long as he says "I don't like that guy" in private, he can drive Geng Ji away, and maybe step on his subordinates directly. Cao Cao can't make it, but Xun can't come up with enough reasons, and he won't change it.

However, it was Xun who was sufficient, and he couldn't even think of a single reason - he wasn't familiar with Geng Ji, and he couldn't find out if he wanted to find out the other party's mistakes.

So he had to return home depressed, and immediately invited Guan Jing over. He said that Cao Gong introduced such a person to me today, saying that he was my deputy, but I saw that this person's eyes were wrong - Mencius said: "If the chest is right, the eyes will be clear; If the chest is not right, the eyes will be squinting. "I originally wanted to entrust all the general affairs to Guanglu Cheng, but I don't worry about this person, I'm afraid that if he does something wrong in the future, it will affect me, is there any way to drive him away?

Guan Jing said with a smile: "It is difficult to overthrow the chief official with the bureaucracy, and it is easy to follow the chief official by the bureaucracy, so why worry about the lord?" Since Cao Gong's life is irreversible, he can let it go, slowly investigate his lawlessness, and then dismiss him. ”

It was Xun Xin who said that this person would rebel in the future, and before the rebellion, he might not really expose any bad deeds. In fact, from the perspective of the Han Dynasty, Geng Ji is a loyal martyr who does not hesitate to throw his head and spill his blood to help the building in the general, he has been an official in the prime minister's mansion for seven years, and even Cao Cao trusts him, and he loves him very much, which shows that this person's character and talent are excellent - the political tendency is wrong, as long as it is not exposed, it is really not good to blame his mistakes.

"If he is treacherous and loyal, there is no lawlessness, what can he do?"

Guan Jing said that if there is no lawlessness, he will create some lawlessness, what is so difficult about this? You use it first - there is no one who is not greedy, and there is no one who does not make mistakes, as long as we have a calculating heart, are we afraid that we will not be able to get rid of him? "If the lord only knows how to be sincere with others, he will be deceived. For the political essentials, in the doubts, not in the believers. ”

When Shi Xun heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, and he said in his heart that Guan Shi was a villain, but fortunately, I got it......
