Xu Zhen is like this, so that Liu Xie can't get off the stage, if Dong Cheng is still there, he will probably scold Xu Zhen angrily in the palace, disobey and disrespect the Son of Heaven.

It's a pity that he's no longer there.

Yang Biao and the big Changqiu beside him didn't dare to speak, and the guards in the inner and outer halls were also Xu Zhen's old department, and he personally brought these martial arts guards back then, which made them admire.

No one in the hall can scold him anymore.

Coming out of the main hall, Xu Zhen glanced around the buildings near the entire court, the imperial city was even more magnificent and magnificent, and he had the feeling of Luoyang back then.

However, the city where it is located is far less than one-tenth, and it may only be restored after a few decades of work when the north is fully stabilized, so it seems that the long-term vision should be longer.

Cao Ang and Xu Zhen went down the stairs together, and both of them walked leisurely with their hands behind their backs.

The rest of the Han officials were all avoided, and left directly, not side by side with the two, one is that their status is too high, the other is that Xu Zhen has beaten Dong Cheng here, Cao Cao has killed Dong Cheng and several high-ranking officials who have betrayed the party, and the third is that they can't help but take each other together in private, after all, Xu Zhen in the palace really doesn't take the Son of Heaven seriously.

I think that at the beginning, among the subordinates with foreign surnames who were almost as famous as Xu Zhen, that Uncle Liu Huang also had a good reputation, and when he saw the Son of Heaven, he bowed three times and bowed nine times, and he was full of appearance.

Where is Xu Zhen so casual and casual, every word is simply a decree that the Son of Heaven will not be punished.

"Why doesn't my brother go, Ziyu estimates that the Son of Heaven has nothing to say, it should be boring here."

Xu Zhen suddenly laughed easily, "If you don't go, you can't go, if you used to, you might have gone, but now that you have a good mind, you can understand one thing, if you don't touch the water, your skin won't get wet." I don't have the slightest idea of getting together with the Han family, why bother to tell the truth, if I go, even if there is nothing, there will be rumors, but the Son of Heaven does not dare to disobey the ......"

When he said this, he suddenly paused, and after thinking for a moment, a smile reappeared on his face, and he said to Cao Ang relaxedly: "That's it! I asked the people above the generals in the army to enter the palace every day to tell His Majesty about the cause and effect, and when the lord came back, he then changed a group of people to tell him, Zixuan, you can arrange it. ”

"Good, good ......"

Cao Ang was softly speechless, thought about it and couldn't cry or laugh, thinking that this was to anger the Son of Heaven, on the surface it was to fulfill his wishes, but the focus was not to listen to the war and military situation, but to ask his brother to accompany him.

But it is indeed a good thing to pick it up, so as not to be suspected of going in and out too much, and gradually go to the princes of the Han family, which makes my father suspicious.

"This Shaofu...... I don't want it either," Xu Zhen touched his chin and said contemplatively: "Shaofu is two thousand stones, it belongs to the Sikong Department, and I will stay in Xuchang for a longer time in the future, I am uncomfortable." ”

"It's better to go back to Yangzhou, based on Huainan and Jiujiang County."

That place should be well prepared, extending in all directions, rivers are the majority, it is easy to raise soldiers and enrich the people, and the north reaches Xuzhou, and the east goes to Jiangdong, and the road is not too far.

"It's enough to be a state pastor with my brother's ability, so it's better to give my brother the history of Yangzhou Thorn as well."

"Don't, unless it's really a state pastor."

Just kidding, the history of the assassination is less than 1,200 stones, isn't this harmful?

"Dian Wei has made great contributions in the army," Xu Zhen no longer entangled with him on this topic, and turned his face solemn, "In this battle, he was more damaged, his war horses were damaged too much, and his brothers all fought bravely and made great contributions, at this time, Zi Wei also needs to be properly placed, otherwise he will lose the hearts of the army and the people." ”

"Well, this matter must be handled impartially, and the order of Shangshu immediately issued a meritorious order, and distributed money and food to the people, as for the Zhongwu Marquis...... Transferred to the county marquis...... Then I had a thousand good horses under my command, and sent them to the army of the Marquis of Zhongwu, and then I was rewarded with ten thousand gold and three thousand silk brocades. ”

"Deployable in the army."

Xu Zhen patted him on the shoulder, looked at Cao Ang's elegant and slightly dignified and majestic face, and found that this kid also slowly grew a beard.

"Brother, don't you ask for something for yourself?" Cao Ang stepped forward with his hands behind his back, he should have been stationed in Xudu for so long, and dealing with other Han ministers was naturally not as elegant as he had been with Xu Zhen in Jiujiang at the beginning, and he always had to be more majestic.

"If you want to ask for something, Ziyu will definitely fight for his brother, and even his father will definitely agree."

Cao Ang smiled confidently.

Xu Zhen thought for a while, his cheeks puffed out slightly, thinking of the lifespan bonus of the Han soul, he didn't make a sound for a while, this characteristic is tied to the big Han, and it is estimated that it will be more than just lifespan in the future.

Maybe there is really any possibility of being an inhuman god in the future, and it is also related to the luck of the big Han, if the big Han is exhausted, it should also be damaged, and it will take decades of effort to rebuild it back.

Maybe there won't be such a good opportunity again.

"I don't want anything," Xu Zhen seemed to have made up his mind, shook his head, breathed a sigh of relief and no longer entangled, and showed a gentle smile to Cao Ang, "The errand is not very big, but I want to be able to ask for the people's lives, apply for the morning and evening every day, and receive Lu on time, regardless of the changes of the sky." ”

"It doesn't matter if you're in power or not, I don't ask for this, it's good to be indifferent to fame and fortune, what I want is to be relaxed and have a clear conscience."

Cao Ang listened to this sincerely, but for a while he also had mixed feelings, there is no background of scholars, just his own fame and achievements, it is indeed difficult to take power in the future, the best way out for my brother is to be a court lieutenant, a doctor of the imperial history, or wait for the restoration of the imperial history in the future, for the Cheng also.

As for the three princes and nine kings, they must be able to serve one term, and the so-called protégés and old officials are all over the world, and it will take at least 30 years to cultivate, and that will be in the future.

What my brother is asking for is peace of mind.

Cao Ang was already able to feel this.

"As for now, doesn't my brother want to go any further?"

Xu Zhen patted Cao Ang's shoulder and said earnestly: "It's far from the time to talk about this. ”

"Jizhou hasn't been captured yet, we just won Guandu."

The two heavy slaps made Cao Ang feel a little stunned for a while, and then smiled bitterly, and said apologetically: "Brother is right, it's Zi Yu who is too anxious, but this is also to repay my brother's kindness, you have paid so much, I really don't know how to repay it." ”

"I didn't ask you to repay it."

Xu Zhen's face became serious, and he also showed a little majesty with his hands behind his back, which made Cao Ang more timid for a while, and his breathing was much lighter, and he realized at this moment that he had always been able to dominate the relationship before, but Xu Zhen never got angry with him.

Once he speaks louder and tougher, he can't hold him down at all.

Xu Zhen just stopped Cao Ang's continued words in a deep voice, and quickly breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Now, I just want to manage the government every day and earn some hard work, I have enough fame and fortune, even if I want to fight for fame, I am fighting for the martial arts under my command, and seeking a way for Kong Ming, the future is for young people, I should enjoy the slow-paced life step by step." ”

Cao Ang: "......"

You're only twenty-eight......

Although it does feel a bit old-fashioned to say this now, it looks very old.

……

Thirty-five days later.

Cao Cao personally led a large army to capture Liyang, and killed all the soldiers and horses in Liyang, and both sides suffered casualties.

When the summer was the hottest, Cao Cao raised his troops out of Liyang and entered Wei County to capture the city.

After Yuan Shao left Zhang Hedian, he used a month to send all the baggage, property, as well as the ministers of civil and military affairs and the ministers of the scholar clan to Qinghe County.

With the strength of the Qinghe Shi clan, plus more than 100,000 soldiers and horses to guard the border, and at the same time let the second son Yuan Xi recruit troops and buy horses in Youzhou, and win the Taishou who had won the Youzhou White Horse together, and then led the troops south to guard the line of Jizhou.

Stabilized the situation slightly.

And his retreat, so that Wei County after fifteen days of defense was broken, Zhang He abandoned the city and left, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses and Zhao Yun and Xu Chu in Yangping County converged, connecting the two counties together.

At this point, half of Jizhou fell, and the war finally subsided, giving Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's armies a chance to breathe.

After all, autumn is still a month or two away.

Cao Cao also needed to transfer the grain and grass from all over the country to defend the land and secure the people, and at the same time distribute the land of the seized territory a little, prepare to raise the people on the spot, and exempt taxes according to the actual situation, so as to prepare for the next year's war.

At this time, it seems that Xun Yu, Xu Zhen and others are playing a role.

Hundreds of thousands of fields in the three counties of Xu Zhen are comparable to the entire Yuzhou.

In addition, in Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and the edge of the old soil of Luoyang, there should be no problem in producing millions of stone grain and grass into the warehouse, and it is naturally enough to allocate military funds.

Xu Du.

Xu Zhen, who had added thousands of food estates, gradually increased his money and stored food in his family, and of course he didn't need to spend money to buy things.

Now even the clothes are more gorgeous, the best brocade cloth, the craft carved whitewash, with flowers and birds as the pattern in the body clothed yarn, attached to the black robe, the waist is tied with a dark blue jade belt, there is a pearl jade in the middle, not precious.

He went to the government office and served as a director with Xun Yu.

Xu Zhen did not ask for the post of Shaofu, but he was responsible for doing the office, which was written by name in Cao Cao's letter, and after the war was completely calmed down, he returned to the prime minister's mansion to return the government.

During this period, every time Xu Zhen gave an order or read the notebook, he would record everything with a mosquito brush, so that now his calligraphy has made great progress, and he has been praised by Xun Yu many times.

"Compared with last year, 1.08 million stone of grain was put into the warehouse, and a notice was issued to the people claiming to be 1.5 million stone, so as to inspire the people, so that people everywhere enthusiastically hid grain at home, encouraged the prime of life to take materials from all over the country, build houses, and improve the living environment of the people."

"By the end of this year, the harvest is expected to be about twice as good as the previous year, the main cultivated land has been increased by four counties, the population of the common people has increased by 300,000, the number of wounded soldiers returning to their hometowns in the army has increased, and the resettlement can be manpower.

"There should be 600,000 military funds to be raised, sent to various places, and the rest will be stored in warehouses for the policy of benefiting the people."

"Prince, that's the general situation."

"As for who will escort the grain and grass, how the route is planned, and how much grain will actually be sent from various places, we will discuss it again."

Xu Zhen nodded, he was actually used to Xun Yu's strict appearance, he didn't smile and didn't smile anymore, he managed each other as officials, and he would definitely not go beyond half a step of etiquette in his title.

But in private, he would still call Bowen, but he no longer had the tone of the previous teachings, and he discussed at the same level.

He felt that Xu Zhen had been in ideology and politics when he was marching and fighting all these years, so his knowledge and knowledge were all growing, and now he was no less than them, who were important members of the internal government who were in charge of politics all day long.

"Does Ling Jun have anyone to recommend? The matter of transporting grain is of great importance, and there should be no delay or delay. ”

"Cao Zhen is in Xudu, he can lead the troops and horses to arrange the transportation of grain, and deliver the grain and grass to the two counties of Jizhou and the front-line soldiers on time."

"Okay, that's it," Xu Zhen got up, ready to leave quickly, at this time the sun was almost setting, and when he got home, he had to record many of today's resolutions, and at the same time found time to meet one or two young scholars.

This was made three days in advance, and Xu Zhen deliberately completed reading books and ring head knife exercises early today, so he could have an hour or so to spare in the evening.

These people are all coming from Xuzhou to Xudu to report the situation when the autumn harvest is coming, and they should also be the ones who ask for it.

As for what to ask for, it is easy to think about, it should be to hand over the grain and grass for a while, and want to reduce it.

After all, all localities must store grain for development, or if some major government decrees are improved and implemented in the territory, it is necessary for Xu Du to issue an edict to allocate money and grain.

Xu Zhen needs to hear the reason, in fact, this is also within the scope of his responsibility.

"Ah, Berwen."

Xu Zhen walked out of the main hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion and was quickly chased by Xun Yu, and the two walked down the steps one after the other, walking on the long square, "You have been back for two months, and all the wartime shelved matters have been resolved after discussion, in fact, merit should be more suitable for this Shangshu Order than me." ”

"Moreover, your self-discipline can still cultivate an atmosphere, if you can be a young leader, those young people who have just recruited into the ranks should be most admired and admired, and follow with all their hearts."

"In this case, there is one thing I need to inform, the lord has told me before, if the north can be stabilized, a large number of talents will be needed to take up positions in various places within a few years."

"The local Taishou is still based on local filial piety and celebrities, and it is quite prestigious to be able to formulate policies according to local conditions as soon as possible, and to protect the territory and the people, but at the same time, we must reserve a large number of talented and talented people, and choose from the Taixue, private learning, recommendation and poor scholars, and want to follow the example of the Yuedan evaluation of the year, and evaluate the world's characters with one person, and I have recommended Bowen to be responsible for this matter."

"Why did my brother recommend me?"

Xu Zhen had a calm expression on his face, unable to express his joy or anger, but he was a little worried in his heart, after all, this is a matter of appointment and dismissal of personnel management, and it must be recommended from all over the world.

But if you don't let me, you really have to let me do it! Then I'll see if there are any limited-time tasks that can be brushed, and if you can brush it, you must do it, just have a clear conscience, what can you do with me?!

Xun Yu arched his hand and said: "Bowen is honest and clear, and he is not a person of the scholar clan, his recommendation is unbiased, and he has been famous and noble as a prince over the years, so it is more convincing, and if Bowen takes on this position, he can help me to be honest and honest in the future, so that there are Ming officials everywhere, and the people will be grateful for their kindness, how is it bad?" ”

Xu Zhen still didn't change his expression, he still walked calmly with his hands behind his back, and couldn't help but sigh lazily in his heart.

The situation has really become complicated, and I used to only think about how to survive in the gap between the powers, how to recruit talents to grow, and fight against foreign enemies.

Now that he has set his pace, he has become the largest prince, and he has the Son of Heaven in hand, and the orthodoxy of the Han family is in Xudu.

People will change after all.

"What does the lord say?" Xu Zhen asked flatly.

"Naturally, he nodded happily, and he also strongly advocated Bowen to select and appoint talents."

"Oh, but it's still a long way off, I'm just talking to Berwen in advance."

Xun Yu smiled and walked quickly, leaving Xu Zhen with a straight back.
