Chapter 29, Taigong sealed
Jiang Xu asked why Shixun refused to tell Lu Bu his theory that running the Western Regions could make the country strong and the people rich, and Shixun couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "General Lu is a hero who determines difficulties, and he is not a talent for managing politics." "After all, no matter how much Yang Fu and Jiang Xu are committed to the imperial court, they are still Lu Bu's subordinates, and he can't degrade Lu Fengxian too low. In fact, what is the "hero of difficulty" and "the hero of sowing difficulty", right?
People's Su zhì and Bingfu, corresponding to different times and backgrounds, will be able to produce completely different effects, which is why Cao Cao is "the able minister to govern the world, and the traitor of the troubled times". Shi Xun felt that Lu Bu was the same, if he ruled the world and was constrained by strict laws, Lu Bu might be able to "fix difficulties", and his leading talent might be enough to be Huo Qu's second illness; But in troubled times, Lu Bu can only poke the basket everywhere, how can he say "difficult"?
It was all up to him and Cao Cao to plot in every way, and he used the position of Liangzhou pastor to give him a cage, so that he could settle down a little - just like that, he listened to Chen Gong's words again and again and went to Guanzhong.
But in front of Yang Fu, Jiang Xu and others, the words can't be said too bluntly - if there is only one Yan Xing present, it is a nail that Cao Cao deliberately buried in Liangzhou, maybe Xun dared to speak out boldly - in fact, the meaning he wanted to express euphemistically was very simple: Lu Bu was a soldier, and the level of politics was not a little bit worse.
"If General Lu knows the benefits of the trade in the Western Regions, I am afraid that the rivers will dry up and the fish will be lost."
In fact, businessmen come and go, but they can draw heavy taxes, and no matter how stupid Lu Bu is, it is impossible not to see it. China is rich in natural resources, and all things can be sought without pretense, and the scholars and doctors generally have limited vision, and it is estimated that the caravans going west will not be formed so quickly; But the Sogdians in Central Asia were different, and they had long been staring at Chinese silk and porcelain. His eyes are on fire. Once the Silk Road is opened. It will definitely come from the east. He Lu Feng looked at it first, can he think about going to a tax class and getting a piece of the pie?
However, in China, the traditional business is regarded as a lowly business, and most of the business actions are neglected, let alone studied in depth, which is basically tantamount to laissez-faire, so how can Lu Bu consider the issue of encouraging business development? must be taxed to death, and in the end, it will be a dangerous road to the Yumen of the merchants. The generals have eaten a lot of fat in private—what good is that for the country?
I'll talk about it later, but if Lu Bu is notified in advance and asked him to set up checkpoints early and levy taxes aggressively, I'm afraid that the Silk Road in the new era will be stillborn.
Moreover, Shi Xun also considered another problem: "I tried my best to make General Lu and Duke Wei abandon Guanzhongye, also because of their lack of money and food. If it is rich, can it still be controlled? ”
Do you think Lu Bu is really that loyal to the central government? He just doesn't have enough strength. If he pays attention to the wealth brought by trade in advance, even if he buys and sells a hammer first. After the money and food are sufficient, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no ambition. Swing eastward.
There is no need to say this thoroughly, just click on it, because Yang Fu and Jiang Xu have followed Lu Bu for many years, what kind of character he is, you should know better than me.
Sure enough, when he heard this, Jiang Boyi was immediately solemn, and said in a loud voice that what the servant said was very true. Yang Fu thought about it carefully, but lowered his voice and said to Shi Xun: "Today, General Lu temporarily sent Zhang Wenyuan to collect Jiuquan and Dunhuang in order to pass through the Western Regions, or he could secretly pass it on to him and make preparations in advance. Wen Yuan is loyal and honest, and has the idea of family and country......"
It's Xun who said okay, then I'll leave this matter to you - whether Zhang Liao is really loyal to the country, more than loyal to Lu Bu personally, Yes Xun really can't judge; But according to the history books, he still has a lot of respect for this person who may have been Cao Wei's general, and since Yang Fu said that this person is reliable, I will believe it for the time being.
The four of them chatted until the light of day, but Xun was really sleepy, so he said goodbye and left. Yang Fu also said that tomorrow I will accompany you to walk around? It's Xun Yi Yi Ba Qi Ji Rake Ya Mei looking for the seal! Jumping haggard and dragging the lack of kites, only Pa plays with clothes, and violently corrects his head, Γ yarn, hi emblem, and Yang Yang Mei disease
When I went back to the dormitory, I was sleepy, and I tossed and turned for a while, and I didn't fall asleep until dawn. In a daze, I saw a figure approaching the bed in the dim light. It was Xun who instinctively felt that he was in Anyi's house, and the one in front of him was not a wife and concubine, but a ...... Cao Cao's woman!
I don't know why the sperm worm suddenly got into the brain, regardless of it, got up and grabbed it, and asked with a low laugh: "Mrs. Qinghuan?" Mrs. Yin? The woman turned her face away shyly and said softly, "Duke Wei has sent me to serve Ling Jun." "It's Xun Daxi, that is, stretching the claws of Lushan to probe the crisp outside, and then ...... He woke up with great regret.
When I woke up, I was confused, it's almost summer, why am I still dreaming of spring? I think it's because I've been away from home for a long time and can't vent...... But why did you dream of Cao Cao's woman? I knew that when I was in Jicheng, I accepted the maids sent by Lu Bu, but I was annoyed that Lu Fengxian didn't know how to let those women go on the road with me. It's even more annoying to Yang Yishan, isn't there a woman in Yunwu City? I don't know how many to offer......
People are really, they will hesitate when it comes to the end, but regret afterwards......
Shixun continued to rest in Yunwu City for five full days, and then said goodbye to Yang Fu and others, accompanied by Jiang Xu, and went north to Wuwei County. But when he walked to Yun Street, he suddenly got a report, saying that the Wei family's grain and grass had been delivered, and his envoy asked Lu Bu for himself. It was Xun who returned to his heart like an arrow, so he simply didn't travel north, and returned to Jicheng in a hurry.
When we met, the person who escorted the grain and grass turned out to be an old acquaintance and an old subordinate - Fufeng Taishou Su Zesu Wenshi. Lu Bu set up a banquet, and once again washed the dust for Shixun, and suddenly mentioned something during the banquet, saying that you promised me to be a public servant in Liangzhou, can this matter still be fulfilled?
Yes Xun slightly turned his head and looked at Su Ze, Su Ze bowed slightly, meaning that Cao Cao had mentioned it, and this matter could be done. So he arched his hand towards Lu Bu: "This Duke of Wei is also a promise, how can Duke Wei be dishonest to others?" "Don't push everything on me, the first person who promised you was Cao Cao himself, even if he regrets it in the future, he won't do anything to me.
Fortunately, it was Su Ze who came, and it was Xun who dared to make it clear like this.
Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard this, and said that I know that the matter is very high, and the court system is not something that can be approved in a month or two, as long as you still remember it. After finishing and raising his right arm, he drew a large semicircle in front of him: "I have three counties enough - Hanyang, Anding, and Longxi!" ”
Shixun frowned slightly. Then the eyebrows are stretched. Smile all over your face. Raise his glass: "It is the prince who wants to level Yizhou for the court, and Xun Xian is the prince and the marquis." ”
Lu Bu rolled his eyes and said shrimp? I won't join forces with Liu Bei, but I don't plan to beat him for the time being, I'm still ready to lead Zhang Liao and them on an expedition to the Western Regions after the Jincheng is stabilized. Reopening the capital of the Western Regions, and establishing a class will be far from immortal, isn't this what you and Cao Cao have been expecting me to do?
Shi Xun smiled slightly: "The prince wants to be south." It is the south of the seal, and if you want the west, you will seal the west, which is cheap for the military. Liu Bei lives in Yizhou, and he will come to fight for Longshang on a different day, and the Junhou army will return to the Jade Gate? It is difficult to accomplish the work. Since it was sealed by the prince, it was inconvenient for the Duke of Wei to come in. If it is sealed in the west, there will be no worries, and Wei will not defend the country for the prince. It is for the country to guard Liangzhou, and it can be entered. ”
If you don't unite with Liu Bei. In order to seize Guanzhong, Liu Bei must first go to Longlong and seek to seize your Hanyang, Anding and other counties. If these places are your feudal state, then you can only defend them yourself, and it is inconvenient for the Wei army to interfere - I am afraid that you will misunderstand that we are annexing in the name of rescue. Could it be that when your army leaves the Jade Gate, you can't turn back in a hurry? What year and month will it take to restore the Western Regions?
If your fiefdom is not in the south of Liangzhou, but in the west, then rest assured and boldly go to the Western Regions, and the Wei army will assist your remaining troops to resist Liu Bei - because that is to save the Han land with the Wei army, not to enter the Liang country with the Wei army, and you are not afraid of causing misunderstandings.
When Lu Bu heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said in his heart that you want to drive me west-"Do you have no Feng Wuwei and Zhang Yeye?" The land is barren and the people are poor, how can they raise the army of the Western Expedition? "The western part of Liangzhou is too poor, don't go too far!
Shi Xun hurriedly comforted: "If the prince and the marquis are not hesitant, you can increase Dunhuang and Jiuquan...... "How about giving you four counties?" "In the past, Zhou Feng Zhou Gong Yu Lu, Zhao Gong Yu Yan, and Tai Gong Yu Qi also meant that they were all remote and far away, and they were also peaceful in China for the sake of Dingsiyi."
Ah, yes, Xun actually compared me to Duke Zhou and Zhaogong...... Okay, this is a bit too much, I'm not a Han clan after all, but it's also very good to be able to compare to Taigong Lu Wangna. When Lu Bu heard this, he couldn't help but feel vanity, his brows were stretched, his eyes lit up, and he immediately slapped the table: "Yiyi Jincheng, yes!" "Plus Dunhuang and Jiuquan are still poor, you have to add Jincheng County to me, then I will go to the west satisfied."
Shi Xun hurriedly knocked on the nail and turned his feet: "I will return to Anyi and play Wei Gong." "As far as I'm concerned, of course, I'm happy to agree to you—there are only five distant counties around the left, and the combined population is estimated to be less than one county in Hedong. As for whether it will succeed in the end, I don't say it, you still have to ask Cao Cao.
Lu Bu raised his wine glass and drank it all: "Dehongfu good words, why should I worry?" "I can't catch Cao Cao, I'll rely on you, you have to fight for me as much as possible in front of Cao Cao." It's Xun who promised - I'm going to run away anyway, and you won't be able to catch me.
The next day, he set off and returned to Guanzhong. Along the way, Shixun kept his head down and pondered, and Su Ze asked him what he was worried about, but he couldn't say anything - he always felt as if he had forgotten something important on this trip. It wasn't until he walked thirty miles away that he suddenly realized: I forgot to ask Lu Bu for those maids! I promised Lao Jing in my heart that I would tell him a daughter-in-law.
That's it, that's it, anyway, I still have a leftover from the Yahuan on Zhuangzi, just point one to Lao Jing - his kind of rough billet, he should be thankful for having a daughter-in-law, what else to choose?
Arriving in Chang'an a few days later, Sima Yi greeted him with a big gift, saying that Wei Gong missed his teacher and had written several times to urge him. By the way, it was reported that the Duke of Wei had been persuaded by the ministers a few days ago, and was rewarded by the Son of Heaven and promoted to the king of Wei.
When Xun heard the news, he was quite displeased, and said Lao Cao, what are you in a hurry, you can't wait for me for a few more days? I've worked so hard that I almost don't even want this face, to help you advocate and plan for you, and you're going to deprive me of my position in the push watch? Although this may not be a glorious thing, after all, it is estimated that the important ministers of the Wei family will have to sign it, and there is only a lack of a Chinese book order, what will people who don't know the inside story think? Will you speculate that Cao Cao and I are not of the same mind?
"Lao Ge Guen, unanimously if it is!" Of course, he just scolded this sentence in his heart, and didn't dare to really put it into his mouth.
Immediately, Sima Zhongda said the second news, which really scared Shi Xun - "The imperial doctor ordered Hua Tuo to be imprisoned for violating the order, and he was hanged." (To be continued......)
