Chapter 450: Buy One Get Two Free

Zhang Yi's act of throwing the golden seal into it as firewood, all the generals are accustomed to it, they all know that Zhang Yi's contempt for imperial power has reached the point of having no monarch and no owner, so it is not strange, but Zhang Jiao is the first time to see it, he is very surprised, because he has always thought that Zhang Yi is loyal to the Han and loyal to the emperor, and now it seems that this is not the case.

Seeing Zhang Yi drinking and eating food there, Zhang Jiao asked in surprise: "Aren't you loyal to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty?" ”

"Loyal to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty?" Looking at Zhang Jiao, Zhang Yi smiled slightly: "I am only loyal to the people of the world, the emperor is now equivalent to an important chess piece for me, he still has time for me to continue to prepare for my affairs, and when he dies, the things I plan will officially begin, to be honest, father-in-law, you are also a chess piece on my chessboard, your uprising has hit the regime of the Han Dynasty fiercely, and accelerated his demise, to be honest, without you, the Han can really support for more than three decades, and the people of the world will also suffer more than three decades of sin, Do you know what is the root cause of the failure of your uprising? It is detached from the people. ”

"Divorced from the people?"

Listening to Zhang Yi's words, Zhang Jiao raised his eyebrows and said: "The people are just slaves under the imperial power, they are the same with them or not, as long as you tell them that you let them eat and drink, they will listen to you." ”

At this time, Zhang Jiao's mentality was the same as that of the scholars after gaining power, he looked down on the people too lightly, thinking that the people were like dogs, and if they gave them something to eat and drink, they would be obedient.

"Hey~Ignorance~"

With a long sigh, Zhang Yi put down his wine glass and said: "Let me tell you about the importance of the common people, as I said earlier, what five virtues have always been said to be bullshit, since ancient times, the world of those who win the hearts of the people is ......"

Zhang Yi once again turned out his words of brainwashing the generals, what water can carry a boat and overturn a boat, what people are noble and gentle, what kind of military and civilian fish and water, anyway, it is to say that the people's heart is more important than anything else, and also use the examples of those losers in history as an analogy, anyway, after Zhang Jiao listened, the whole person's thinking has undergone a great change.

After a lot of verbosity, Zhang Yi took a sip of water and asked Zhang Jiao: "How is it?" Do you understand? ”

Seeing Zhang Yi blinking, Zhang Jiao scratched his head and fell into deep thought.

Seeing that Zhang Jiao stopped talking, Zhang Yi didn't ask him, but turned to Han Tao and said: "Send a message to Zhuge Jue, and ask him to go to the court to tell the emperor that the team must pass through Luoyang City when returning north, otherwise the Dingping army will be stationed on the spot, and let them find a way to deal with the Xianbei people by themselves." ”

Among the conditions that Zhang Yi proposed to He Jin, in addition to asking for money, food, and officials, there is also a clause that when the Dingping army returns to the north, it must pass through the city of Luoyang, at the beginning, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty only gave Zhang Yi money and grain, and did not give Zhang Yi an official knight, Zhang Yi waited for more than half a month, and in this half a month, Budugen and Kirby can go hand in hand, and even the Eastern Alliance and the Southern Xiongnu have also intervened, so that half of the state has fallen.

Of course, the place controlled by Kirby Neng and Budugen only fell on the surface, and the lives of the people were not disturbed much, and the Southern Xiongnu and the Eastern Alliance did not invade the state, and the place where the Southern Xiongnu attacked was the place around Yongzhou, and the battle reports of the loss of the city one after another made He Jin more and more unable to resist, so He Jin relented and gave Zhang Yi the position of the former general and the title of duke, which was second only to him, but Zhang Yi was not allowed to lead troops into the city.

Zhang Yi wanted to lead troops into the city, not because he wanted to take the opportunity to do anything to Emperor Han Ling, but because he wanted to show off his strength and let the people know about the Dingping Army, but He Jin didn't think so, so He Jin resolutely disagreed.

Zhang Yi's order soon reached Luoyang, and after receiving the news, Zhuge Jue entered the palace the next day in the name of giving gifts to the emperor.

After meeting Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Zhuge Jue said to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty that Zhang Yi had won the head of Zhang Bao and wanted to take the opportunity of returning to the north to offer victory to the emperor.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was also very hesitant to listen to Zhuge Jue's words, he wanted Zhang Yi to enter the palace by himself to face the saint, because he was also afraid that something would happen after the army entered the city, and at this time Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong jumped out, saying that the soldiers of the Dingping Army had a merit in destroying the Yellow Turban Army, and Zhang Yi won the head of the enemy chieftain, which was a great achievement, and the army should enter the city to offer victory to the emperor, and at the same time they also hinted that the defenders of Emperor Han Ling Luoyang were not weaker than the Dingping Army at all, so that Emperor Han Ling did not have to worry.

After hearing the words of the ten permanent servants, Emperor Han Ling also felt that it made sense, and Emperor Han Ling, who was hesitant, still recruited He Jin into the palace.

As soon as he entered the palace, He Jin unexpectedly resolutely opposed Zhang Yi's entry into the city, and bluntly said that he was afraid that Zhang Yi would have a heart of disobedience, and at the same time hyped up how fierce and powerful the Dingping Army was.

Zhuge Liang will not be called Wolong, he just read books with Sima Wei and Chen Gong for a while, and then came to Luoyang, and he has heard a lot of things, so he has his own analysis and understanding of the situation.

Zhuge Liang once analyzed the cause of Han Xin's death in the early Western Han Dynasty with Zhuge Jue, and he believed that Han Xin's high ability to shock the master and excel was the main reason why Liu Bang killed him, and his analysis and statement made Zhuge Liang feel that his thoughts and insights were even far inferior to Zhuge Liang, a six-year-old child, so before entering the palace this time, Zhuge Jue also deliberately exchanged views with his son.

Zhuge Liang thinks that the Ten Standing Servants must want Zhang Yi to enter the city, because this can deter He Jin, and if it is even possible, the Ten Standing Servants will use Zhang Yi to get rid of He Jin, so as to further control the situation, and He Jin will definitely try his best to block it, not allowing Zhang Yi to lead his troops into the city, and even trumpet the strength of the Dingping Army, and use the way of killing to make Emperor Han Ling fear Zhang Yi and the Dingping Army, so as to achieve the goal of getting rid of Zhang Yi, if it really makes Emperor Han Ling have a sense of fear of Zhang Yi, then Zhang Yi is really dangerous, Therefore, once Emperor Han Ling's face showed a frightened expression, then Zhuge Jue should speak.

Zhuge Liang asked Zhuge Liang to say very simply, that is, to explain Zhang Yi's life experience, emphasizing that Zhang Yi is after Zhang Liang, and as Zhang Liang, Zhang Yi will never be able to do anything unfavorable to the Han.

Zhuge Jue's words directly went to the heart of Emperor Han Ling, but Emperor Han Ling was still a little jealous of Zhang Yi, and finally decided to let Zhang Yi only lead 10,000 troops into the city.

After leaving the palace, Zhuge Jue passed the news to Zhang Yi overnight, and after getting the news, Zhang Yi did not insist, but ordered the whole army to speed up towards Luoyang.

Half a month later, Zhang Yi led the army to Luoyang City, because it was already evening when he arrived, so Zhang Yi stationed outside the city.

Before Zhang Yi led the army to arrive, Zhuge Jue rushed to meet outside the city, and after Zhang Yi arrived, he immediately told Zhang Yi the details of the army passing through the city the day after tomorrow, and told Zhang Yi that Emperor Ling of Han had made it clear that Zhang Yi and the Dingping army were not allowed to stay in Luoyang City, and they must immediately go north to deal with the Xianbei people to regain the lost territory, and Zhang Yi did not have any objection to this, but after Zhuge Jue walked on the front foot, Zhang Yi hid from everyone, only took Qin Ying alone, and quietly went to Luoyang City.

Outside Luoyang City, Zhang Yi saw the caravan that Qin Ying said, the caravan was from Yongzhou, the main family name was Xu An, Zhang Yi lied that he was going to enter the city to buy officials, he was from Hedong County, and his family was a small soldier, because Qin Ying had already arranged it, so Xu An did not suspect Zhang Yi's identity, so he took him into Luoyang City.

After entering Luoyang, Xu An arranged everyone in a big inn in the Wei family's industry, called Yuebin Building, Zhang Yi also lived in this inn because he walked with Xu An, but all the expenses were paid by Zhang Yi himself.

There was nothing to do that night, and the next day, Xu An was about to go out to run errands, so he said to Zhang Yi: "Brother, my brother wants to go out to do errands, do you rest first, or go to Hongdumen immediately?" ”

Hongdumen is the place to buy officials, Zhang Yi knows but has not been there, but he also wants to see and see, so he said: "Anyway, it's fine, the younger brother plans to go and do things first." ”

Hearing this, Xu An nodded: "Okay, let's go out together." ”

So Zhang Yi took Qin Ying and followed Xu An out of the inn.

Out of the inn, the three of them shuttled through the bustling streets, although the Han family world was on the verge of collapse at this time, but the capital was very prosperous, think about it carefully, in fact, this is not surprising, those who can live in Luoyang are worth something, these people get together of course will make Luoyang present a prosperous scene.

After walking about a pillar of incense, the two came to the street where the legendary dignitaries lived, where the flow of people was obviously much sparser, and the streets were lined with high doors and deep courtyards, and it was obvious that the owner was extraordinary.

Suddenly, a carriage with a light veil drove by, and stopped at the entrance of the mansion not far ahead.

Zhang Yi glanced at it casually, and this glance made Zhang Yi stunned.

I saw a beautiful woman in a Luo skirt stepping out of the carriage with the support of the maid, looking at her about seventeen or eighteen years old, her hair was combed with fairy clouds, her eyebrows were like far away, and her beautiful face still had a trace of youth, but her figure was already exquisitely seductive, and the most attractive thing was the noble temperament that naturally emanated, which seemed to have a hypnotic power.

Zhang Yi watched blankly, and he didn't come back to his senses until the beautiful girl disappeared from sight.

At this moment, Zhang Yi suddenly felt that someone slapped him behind his back.

Zhang Yi was startled and hurriedly turned around, but saw Xu An looking at him with a smile.

Zhang Yi was arrested, so he grinned at Xu An, he didn't feel embarrassed, in his opinion, it was natural for men to look at women.

With the beauty in mind, Zhang Yi immediately asked, "Brother, where is that girl just now?" There are such beautiful women in the world! ”

Zhang Yi's tone was very emotional, in his opinion, compared with this beauty, the goddesses who relied on plastic surgery and makeup in later generations were simply rubbish.

"What, tempted?" Chong Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows, Xu An smiled: "Hehe, but I'm afraid you kid don't have much chance, the daughter of Cai Yong and Cai Daxue is read by countless young junjie, and Cai Daxue has extremely high requirements for his son-in-law, and he will definitely not be able to enter his eyes if he is not literary and elegant." ”

When Zhang Yi heard Cai Yong's words, he was stunned, so that he didn't listen to Xu An's later words.

Zhang Yi and Xu An broke up on the street in front of Hongdumen, and Xu An left to do his own business.

Zhang Yi came to the Hongdu Gate and saw many well-dressed people huddled under a red wall.

There are suave noble sons here, and there are also some older ones, at this time, those people are gathered in front of a list to discuss, Zhang Yi was a little curious, so he also walked up to watch, only to see a long notice on a red wall of Hongdu Gate, on which is the price of an official position in the imperial court.

Zhang Yi couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, although he had heard about Emperor Ling's betrayal of the official list, but at this time he was still very shocked to be in it, throughout the five thousand years of Chinese history, I am afraid that the only one who can sell the official is this second emperor Huan Ling.

After shaking his head with a wry smile, Zhang Yi glanced at Qin Ying, and then raised his head like everyone else and searched on the notice, Zhang Yi was looking for the official position of the county order, and searched from the beginning to the back. The official positions were arranged according to the rank of the official in the notice, and finally the position in the middle of the notice began to be the position of the prefectural commander.

Zhang Yi continued to search, and in his thoughts, it was best to find an official position in the state.

"And the county order of Fenyang County, the price is 800 gold."

After seeing this information, the corners of Zhang Yi's mouth immediately raised a sneer, because at this time Fenyang had fallen, but even if it fell, the imperial court still took it out and sold it, which was really shameless.

While secretly scolding the court for being shameless, Zhang Yi was also curious about how the court was going to sell this official, after all, the fall of Bingzhou was a well-known thing, so Zhang Yi looked around, and finally saw a young eunuch standing at the door.

Zhang Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally walked towards the eunuch.

"This father-in-law, I want to donate a local county order, and it happens that there is this position on the list, but I have a question I want to ask my father-in-law, I don't know if I can tell you?"

Zhang Yi asked without humility or arrogance.

I have to say here that although Emperor Ling is absurd to be an emperor, he is very good at management, at least these eunuchs who are in charge of receiving them outside Hongdu Gate have a very good attitude towards customers.

The young eunuch looked at Zhang Yi with a kind face, nodded and said, "This son, may I ask." ”

"That's the case, didn't Fenyang fall into the hands of the Xianbei people? But why is there a position of Fenyang County Commander here? ”

After listening to Zhang Yi's words, the young eunuch smiled and replied: "Gongzi doesn't know, Dingping Gong has already gone north, and now he is outside Luoyang City, with Dingping Gong's ability, isn't it a piece of cake to defeat the Xianbei people and take back Fenyang?" And it's not a secret, if the son intends to buy the county order of Fenyang, then the son will take a big advantage, because the county order of Fenyang is sent to the county lieutenant and the county by the way, so the son will save five hundred taels. ”

After listening to the eunuch's words, Zhang Yi turned his head and glanced at Qin Ying, they both saw the word "shameless" in each other's eyes, but after turning his head, Zhang Yi pretended to have a sudden expression, and at the same time said with a happy face: "That's great, but I don't know what I should do?" ”

Zhang Yi pretended to be in a hurry, making the eunuch think that he couldn't wait.

The young eunuch smiled and asked Zhang Yi Gongzi if he had already decided? ”

Zhang Yi nodded affirmatively: "Of course." ”

"Okay, little Duzi, you take this son in to go through the formalities."

The young eunuch said to a young eunuch standing beside him.

"Childe, please come with me."

The young eunuch then made a gesture of invitation to Zhang Yi.

So Zhang Yi took Qin Ying and followed the young eunuch into Hongdu Gate.

After entering the Hongdu Gate, he came to a hall along a quiet path, and the young eunuch led Zhang Yi to the door and stopped: "Childe, you are only allowed to enter by yourself, and please stay outside later." ”

After saying that, the young eunuch left.

After signaling Qin Ying to stay, Zhang Yi pushed open the door of the hall and walked in, only to see a bookcase in the middle of the hall, and three elderly eunuchs sitting behind the bookcase.

It only took a stick of incense for Zhang Yi to walk out of the Hongdu Gate, and he lost 800 gold in exchange for an official document stamped with the imperial seal.

When Zhang Yi walked out of the Hongdu Gate, a large group of people outside the Hongdu Gate looked at him together. Everyone is speculating, what kind of official position is this young man donating?

From time to time, someone walked up to Zhang Yi to have a relationship with him, and Zhang Yi was perfunctory, but the document that Zhang Yi exchanged for eight hundred taels had already been torn up and discarded by Zhang Yi.
