Chapter 233: I am on official business, and I care about the people!
"Prince! Whining! ”
The old woman's teeth were almost gone, her face was full of wrinkles, her shoulders were thin and collapsed, and she couldn't stand up straight, which was a problem caused by years of heavy work.
I thought that this life would be like this, but I didn't expect that before I died, I would be able to take another look at my son who joined the army and did not return.
"Old woman, thank you Junhou, in the future, my son will work for Junhou, and give his life to Junhou!"
"Alas, the old man doesn't need me to thank you!" Xu Zhen called the guards to help her up, and then said, "Your son is a prisoner!" Hurry up and say a few thoughtful words, maybe tomorrow he will be expelled from the lack of food! ”
"Huh?! Whining!! ”
The old woman was stunned, and her eyes seemed to widen.
I cried out loud all at once.
Xu Zhen laughed, patted the back of her hand, and said, "Lie to you, hurry up and say a few more words to your son, just don't pull me to thank you!" Delay my time, I still have to go to the old man's house! Let's go! ”
"Woo!"
The old man smacked his mouth a few times, looked at Xu Zhen's back, first aggrieved for a moment, and then burst into tears and laughed.
The face is like a blooming flower, and a not-so-white tooth is exposed in the mouth.
This is just a microcosm of the prisoner of war camp, at this moment hundreds of families enter the prisoner of war, and the sound of crying is everywhere.
The wife saw her husband and father, the old husband and the old man saw their son who had not returned for many years, of course, they couldn't cry, and the rest of the orphans who had no family were also crying at the moment, envious in their hearts, and they all stood far away to watch this scene.
There are still prisoners of war who have not waited for their families, stretching their necks to look outside the prisoner of war camp, hoping that their families can come to see each other.
Whenever someone asks how they are doing in Jizhou now, these family members do not hide their gratitude to Xu Zhen at all, and praise is endless.
It was because of the crying that the cry was even louder, and after these prisoners of war heard about the internal policy, they gradually had a deeper understanding of the current Jizhou, and many people also made a decision under the mutual gaze.
There is nothing wrong with dying in order to protect Jizhou, and it is not wrong to follow the prince into the camp, even if they need to charge into battle when they fight again in the future.
And Xu Zhen left this place early, and when he arrived in the main account, he watched the progress on the system interface from time to time, and every time he called a person who received a letter from home, the progress would progress.
Therefore, Xu Zhen also has free time to read books, and all kinds of ancient books and books from Zhen's house are placed in front of Xu Zhen's main account at this moment, piled up in the main account.
Xu Zhen can read all these books in one day, increase his knowledge, and increase his knowledge, which has an indirect growth effect on the rest of the intelligence-related abilities.
Read the book for three hours.
One after another, many people entered the prisoner of war camps to meet their families, and as the number of people increased, the progress also increased.
Xu Zhen put down the book, and when he looked up again, he saw a familiar figure standing at the door of the main tent.
[You study for three hours, self-discipline +200]
[Slight increase in knowledge]
The incident of reading has been interrupted, mainly because Xu Zhen's thoughts have been broken.
Outside the tent stood a middle-aged man who was not tall, but quite majestic, wearing a black robe and slightly gray hair on his sideburns.
The majesty is extraordinary, the beard is thick, and when he stands with his hands behind his back, he looks like a mountain crossing, and when he sees Xu Zhen's gaze, he immediately smiles.
"Bowen, you still study hard day and night, and study endlessly."
"Cao Ying's martial arts, if you don't learn for three days, you will be much behind."
Xu Zhen took a deep breath, and was not annoyed by the interruption of his reading, he immediately got up and gave up his hand, walked out quickly, bowed deeply and said softly: "Lord." ”
"How did you come to Jizhou?"
"I went to Qinghe first, and I heard that Ling had been in the Zhongshan camp, so I urged the army to come," Cao Cao smiled, like an old man in the family, walked around the main tent, and everything he saw in his eyes was clean and tidy, Xu Zhen was really the same as before, and he would clean and tidy the military tent every day.
Nothing can be hindered, this military tent, all the items are neatly arranged, the dust on the ground is not raised, and even blankets are spread in many places.
The blanket is also as if it is 90% new.
"You're still the same as ever, worthy of you."
"Over the years, it hasn't changed, I still insist on self-discipline, nothing should change," Xu Zhen said calmly, "Although the status is different from that year, and the merits are earned year by year, the original intention cannot be changed, I still remember what I worked for when I asked to enter the main public camp." ”
"Good, kind!"
Cao Cao praised it, but he was actually a little embarrassed in his heart, because after defeating Yuan Shao, Cao Cao did have the mind to rest, and gradually felt that there should be no more opponents in the world.
Among the princes of the world, the one who can have the power to fight is none other than Liu Biao, but unfortunately Liu Biao is already old, and he is old, although he is not mighty.
It's not fun to fight with it, come today, see Xu Zhen again, but it makes Cao Cao's heart wake up, don't take it lightly at any time, there are many talents in the world, and there may be strong enemies outside.
"The lord praises falsely," Xu Zhen suddenly bowed and said with a smile: "Actually, I have my own gains, so I will always insist." ”
"You don't have to learn from me, because not everyone can get a lot out of it."
Cao Cao immediately leaned back, glanced at Xu Zhen deeply, and said with a twitch of the corners of his mouth: "You are a little arrogant when you say this, who said that others can't have gains, everyone has their own gains, but it's just a little." ”
"If you have perseverance, if others can do this, can't they be promoted? Hum hum ......"
Cao Cao patted Xu Zhen's shoulder as he spoke, making him scratch his head embarrassedly, and after a while, Cao Cao walked to the main seat and sat down, looking at Xu Zhen with a smile.
"Write letters for the prisoners of war to inform their families, so as to enhance the feelings of the army and the people, and write letters in person to collect the hearts of the prisoners of war, and all the annexed state troops should belong to you at this moment."
"It's really a brilliant plan, I really don't know how to praise you, Bowen is really a rare famous general in the world, in the future, your deeds will definitely be written into the history books and recited, and you can also become a sage and be learned, and your merits are immeasurable."
"The lord praised it again, I really want to do something for them," Xu Zhen touched his nose slightly against his will, although he also had this heart, but in fact it was still for a time-limited task.
"These prisoners of war, who have been away from home for many years, were coerced away by Yuan Shao, I treat them like this, just compared with Yuan Shao, and when I accept prisoners of war in the future, I can better let them return to their hearts, in Bingzhou and Youzhou, there are at least more than 150,000 Jizhou soldiers brought out by Yuan Shao back then."
"They all want to go home."
When Cao Cao heard this, he believed Xu Zhen a few words, and immediately sighed, "Yes, the war was chaotic, Yuan Shao's army was defeated, and even the local people refused to let go." ”
"It's also for his son, I didn't expect his two sons to be so uncompetitive, if Yuan Tan is still here, I'm afraid it won't be so hot."
No, it will only be more fierce, and they can stir up Youzhou and Merge into a pot of porridge.
Xu Zhen muttered secretly, and at the same time raised his head and asked Cao Cao: "Lord, you haven't answered me yet, what's the matter with the sudden arrival in Zhongshan?" It's not going to be to check how I use the 800,000 stone grain, right? ”
"Am I that kind of person?!" Cao Cao suddenly glared at him.
"This time I'm here to march."
Cao Cao stood up on the main seat with his hands behind his back, walked slowly in front of Xu Zhen, and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Shang, I haven't killed it yet, this time I also brought it to Zhongshan as a prisoner, and ordered the tiger and leopard to ride and my Qu Hu Ben to rush here." ”
"And I'm going to come to Jizhou with a light horse in advance, what? Not welcome me? ”
Xu Zhen suddenly muttered, "The main thing is that there is no money to entertain." ”
"What?"
"I said, the lord is here to shine, and he will definitely be entertained."
"Well, that's right."
……
At night.
Xu Zhen asked Xu You to accompany Cao Cao to drink, just using the cellar wine sent by Zhen to the army, and the wine in Jizhou was much stronger than the wine in Runan.
After staying with him all night, Xu You's bile was about to be drunk and vomited, which made Cao Cao a little happy.
Xu Zhen returned to the government office early and practiced martial arts with Dian Wei to improve the proficiency of Miao Dao.
After a year of hard training and perseverance, now Miao Dao has broken through to [Ascending to the Peak], plus Xu Zhen's force has now reached [103], and the martial arts he actually exerts are enough to make it difficult for any fierce general to deal with.
Dian Wei can still resist dozens of rounds a little, but it is also full of dangers.
Among the Han people, Xu Zhen has no opponents in the head-to-head fight, but to this day Xu Zhen is still not complacent, the world is so big, all foreign races should be counted.
Perhaps there are people with better physique somewhere, and this should not be taken lightly.
Day 2.
When Xu Zhen arrived, Cao Cao arrived at the main hall of the government office early to wait, but he did not pass Xu Zhen to help him manage the government, but just came to watch first.
Seeing Xu Zhen coming, Cao Cao smiled and asked, "Why are you collecting ancient scrolls and books everywhere?" I heard that these books are in Zhen's collection? ”
"Personal favorites."
Xu Zhen responded as a matter of course, "Is the lord okay to do?" ”
"Huh?!"
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and smiled at Xu Zhen, "What do you mean by this?" So I'll go? ”
"It's not, I drank so much wine last night, why did I get up early today to take care of the government?"
"Well, I know most of Jizhou's current political affairs, but it's really nothing, and I can't help you review your political affairs, it's boring."
"Why don't you put it aside for the time being today, take a walk around Zhongshan with me, and see how the people are doing in various places?"
Cao Cao came this time, he really wanted to come to Jizhou first, and Xu Zhen had the opportunity to play for a few days, but he hadn't seen him for many months, so he was not as close as he was back then.
At that time, although there was only one state in Yanzhou, it could be seen day and night, and he had personally cultivated and taught Xu Zhen, otherwise how could he have the talent of Xu Zhen now!
What is the hero of the world, is to personally cultivate a civil and military all-round talent whose talent can be compared with himself, what a sense of satisfaction.
At this moment, Cao Cao has already thought of three or four poems, and when he reaches the emotional place, he can chant them when he opens his mouth.
"Then don't go, I have to take care of the government, the lord forgive me, at this time, the autumn harvest in Jizhou is approaching, and many things must be personally ordered and deployed, otherwise there may be chaos."
"Tsk, I came from Xudu in advance!"
The smile on Cao Cao's face stiffened slightly.
I've traveled 800 miles to play with you, and you actually want to soak in these internal affairs inspectors?!
I have never seen anyone look at them every day, and if some political matters are not important, they can be put aside!
Ordinary governance matters are reviewed and approved in accordance with common sense, and those words are written and written, and it is enough to let local officials govern and make decisions on their own according to the people's feelings.
There's no need to see it for yourself.
"This, this can't be ......"
Xu Zhen snorted a few times, looked left and right, and looked at Dian Wei who was standing not far from the right, and Dian Wei was also very smart this time, so he directly lowered his head and took a nap, pretending not to wake up yet.
Zhuge Liang coughed, then got up and said: "Prime Minister, Junhou, I am going to the army to check the situation of patrolling, to see if there was anything different last night, and to check if there is any news of Youzhou outside." ”
After saying that, he left directly.
Jia Xu didn't come to the government office at all, of course, it is also possible that he came early and saw Cao Cao there, said hello and ran away.
The rest of the generals were in the barracks and did not return to the government office at all.
And Xu You vomited all night last night, it is estimated that he is still sleeping now, and he can talk to his classmates, and Cao Cao has always felt that he owes Xu You, he didn't have many rewards for his meritorious service back then, Cao Cao also suspected that Xu You would be proud of his achievements, but people were not arrogant at all, and they have been acting in a low-key manner.
It was very different from his estimate.
Yang Xiu and Chen Deng are both in Qinghe, and they have never come to Zhongshan Kingdom, and at this moment, in the main hall, except for Dian Wei, who is napping, Xu Zhen and Cao Cao are left staring at each other.
"Xu Bowen, you have to waste here, right?"
"It's not a waste, there really is a political matter, the more it comes to the autumn harvest time, the more you can't take it lightly, if there is a difference this year, the next year's grain and grass are insufficient, wouldn't it be a pity?"
"Millions of people in Jizhou, what if they don't have enough to eat?"
Cao Cao slowly took a deep breath, his chest stiffened, the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, the smile on his face was full of anger, and then he exhaled two lines of rough air from his nose.
Gritted his teeth and said: "As both a prince and a state pastor, he has reached this status, and he is still like a miserly rich man, caring about those grains and grass!" ”
"You hang out with me! When the autumn harvest is over, I will transfer 300,000 stone grain and 30,000 catties of pork for you! ”
Xu Zhen was in awe at this time, and immediately stood up, his expression was serious and solemn, his panting voice was much heavier, and he said heavily: "When you say this, it is a bit insulting to Bowen!" I am for the people of Jizhou, am I pretending to be hypocritical here for the sake of money and food? ”
"Five hundred thousand!"
"Let's go, go to Zhongshan, I know that there is a place, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, suitable for observing the people's feelings, I asked people to prepare fruit and vegetable delicacies, wine and hospitality, and chat with the lord about things, in addition, there is another person named Cui Lin, is Cui Yan's younger brother, just introduced to the lord, this person is beautiful in the heart, a late bloomer, and has learned a lot."
Cao Cao: "......"
As he spoke, Xu Zhen had already walked up to Cao Cao, making a gesture of invitation with one hand, and putting the other hand on Cao Cao's elbow, bowing slightly and bending over, very respectful.
This attitude is so humble that Dian Wei wakes up.
He squeezed his eyebrows in the back, and his face was full of wrinkles, as if he had eaten something unclean.
It is you, my lord.
This title is Lao Xing's first line!
