Chapter 139: Merit and Punishment
The matter of the class teacher was quickly decided.
But there are still many things to deal with before returning to Beijing.
The first thing Liu Wei did was to clean up Zhang Ji first.
Compassion is not in charge of the army, and good is not in politics.
Although it wasn't that Zhang Ji's plan failed, what he wanted to do was actually quite good.
If it succeeds, it will definitely be a great achievement in attacking Nanwu Yang City.
But his duty is to ensure the supply of food and grass for the army, which is not a charging role.
As a result, this guy left his post without permission and left the grain and grass behind.
This is a mistake in principle and cannot be tolerated.
Liu Wei sprayed wildly in front of Zhang Ji for half an hour, and greeted all the breath that he didn't finish scolding last time.
and then took all the credit for his past few months to the end, and there was not even a fragment left.
A good general of Zhengdong Zhonglang became a captain in the blink of an eye.
"You'd better remember that you should have beheaded you! I remember that you have made outstanding achievements in the past, and I will spare you a small life first. If there is a next time, I will not spare it! Liu Wei scolded.
Half an hour of spraying people tired Liu Bian, and his throat was uncomfortable.
He took a sip of tea, and suddenly remembered Zhang Ji's recital, "Also, next time, if you dare to give me such a recital, I will cut it together with your son, and you will have the same words as a dog, are you embarrassed?" β
Zhang Ji, who knew that he was guilty of this crime as early as Nanwuyang, just lowered his head and confessed his guilt again and again.
There was not even a word of argument, and he did not dare to argue.
After scolding and scolding, and the anger was almost gone, Liu Wei glared at Zhang Ji fiercely and said, "You are my favorite general, why do you always want to do something stupid?" If you die, your beautiful lady will have a son for someone else. β
Zhang Ji raised his head and asked with a strange expression: "Your Majesty does you think that the ministers are beautiful?" β
"Are you also face blind?" Liu Wei scolded angrily.
Zhang Ji hurriedly shook his head, "No, the minister means, Your Majesty, should you be the one who cares about the minister......"
Although his words were not finished, the meaning was clear.
"You get out of here, I'm not a good woman." Liu Wei angrily wanted to do it directly.
He didn't expect Zhang Ji to think of going there.
He had nothing to do to mention this, but he remembered Cao Cao's Waterloo because of Zhang Ji's wife.
Zhang Ji was a little regretful, but also a little lucky.
"Some time ago, King Lu presented a few BMWs, you go and pick a batch." Liu Wei snorted and said.
Zhang Ji was instantly furious.
Although he was scolded for half an hour, he was deprived of all his credit.
But he felt a strong sense of love in the emperor's tone.
This is an emperor who is definitely worthy of his death.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, those stupid things, I swear they will never happen again." Zhang Ji hurriedly thanked him, grinning like the lotus petals, a stupid music.
"Get out!" Liu Wei was glared at angrily again.
"Yui!"
β¦β¦
After the punishment is completed, it is the reward after this battle.
Zhang Liao and Cao Ren were awarded the title of Zhonglang General because of their bravery and accumulated meritorious deeds.
Zhang Liao was crowned as the general of the tiger and the general of the great martial arts, and Cao Ren was the general of the mighty and the general.
Xun Yu was awarded the title of Dian Nong Zhonglang General because of his meritorious service in Tuntian.
The rest of the generals were rewarded, but there were no additional officials.
Cao Hong should have been among the officials, but unfortunately, this guy was a bit too prodigal in Taishan County.
He was trapped in Dongyang City, which can only be regarded as a pass, not to mention any meritorious service.
The war was temporarily suspended, and everyone after the addition of officials and knights held banquets one after another at the Sunset Inn.
The three newly promoted Zhonglang generals took turns to be the east.
Because of its unique cuisine, Sunset Inn has made a strong name in the entire Sanyang County.
In Changyi, the second Sunset Inn has opened next to the post station.
Chinese people have been the king of food since ancient times, and no one can resist the power of food.
In this completely blank market, the appearance of the Sunset Inn is completely a dimensionality reduction blow.
Liu Wei's unique business is difficult to do without being prosperous.
When everyone was busy celebrating and rejoicing, Liu Wei walked into the nameless garden again.
He's here to take a bath again.
Preparing for the class teacher to return to Beijing, Liu Wei thought that there was a high probability that he would not be able to see Cai Wenji in the future, and suddenly his heart was still a little unhappy.
People are so strange sometimes, obviously quite annoying at first.
But after doing this twice or three times, I was worried about it.
Liu Wei actually knew very well in his heart that he didn't come for Cai Wenji's people at all, but to see the waves of others.
A figure that can make him dream like that kind twice in a row, it's really hard for him to forget.
But today, Liu Wei was almost dug up by the silt in the pond while holding his breath, and he didn't find Cai Wenji.
After going ashore, Liu Wei couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the first two times were really coincidences? Instead of a deliberately created encounter by Cai Wenji?
After walking around the garden, Liu Wei didn't find Cai Wenji, so he had to go back to the garden in disappointment.
β¦β¦
The top of the old mountain embankment.
The turbulent waves of Liu Bian's heart are turning over and over to study the white stone in his hand.
"My lord, I look at this thing as a white stone, why can I eat it?" Cai Wenji asked Cai Yong beside her in confusion.
Cai Yong peeled off a white stone with some slow movements, handed it to Cai Wenji and said, "Just eat it, this is a rare thing." But if you want to ask what it is, I don't know, if you can pry Jiao Gong's mouth open, maybe you can know. β
Cai Wenji held her mouth and gently threw the white stone handed by her old father, and then bit it into her mouth, "The adults peeled it with their own hands, and the taste is even more extraordinary!" β
"You, you, how can you have the appearance of a girl." Cai Yong shook his head and reprimanded.
Cai Wenji grinned, "My lord, you forgot, my daughter is not a girl now, I am a widow." β
Cai Yong's face instantly turned green with the naked eye, and he raised his hand and knocked on Cai Wenji's head with a chestnut, "You still know you, I thought you had forgotten that you were a Wei woman." β
Cai Wenji quietly moved away from the distance between her and her old father, covered her forehead and muttered, "I really forgot." β
"I'm really going to be by you." Cai Yong is going to teach his daughter a good lesson.
Seeing this, Zheng Xuan, who was on the side, immediately became a peacemaker, "Uncle, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, why should you be impatient." It's good that Miss Wen Ji has forgotten the identity of Wei's wife, she still has a good marriage waiting for her, and Wei should forget, she should forget. β
Cai Yong looked at his old friend helplessly, "How can I forget this, her marriage contract is already there." β
"Someone can, don't worry." Zheng Xuan said with a profound face.
After seeing Cai Wenji, he already had the answer in his heart.
"You don't have to get involved in this matter, lest you tarnish your good name." Cai Yong persuaded, "I know you have some ability to judge the past and the aftermath of a person, but this matter is not necessary, let her be." β
Telling a widow is indeed not a good thing for a great Confucian.
Zheng Xuan laughed, "I'm just a bystander, but it's not my turn to interfere in this matter." β
"The imperial court has requisitioned you to sacrifice wine for the doctor, so you should do it?" Cai Yong changed the subject and asked.
Zheng Xuan's eyes closed slightly, and he nodded slightly, "It should be, it shouldn't seem to be good." β
"The current emperor should be the biggest hero in the world, his ambition is very big, I see the vast territory of thousands of miles in his eyes, I see the ironclad hero, and I seem to see living and working in peace and contentment."
"Although he is not the real son of heaven, it is a good thing for a hero to be an emperor at the moment."
"You and I can't be in name only, and silently ignore the people of the world, we should also do what we can."
Cai Yong was a little confused when he heard this.
He turned his head to look at Jiao Xian, who was in his clothes, looking for lice, "Jiao Gong also saw it?" β
"I can see it, I can see it, there are so many lice, I said why is it so itchy lately." Jiao Xian shouted loudly.
Cai Yong: ......
Although everyone has some friendship, he doesn't understand Jiaoxian's nervous behavior from time to time.
Cai Wenji snorted and laughed, "Maybe Uncle Jiao should consider changing his clothes." β
"You can't change it, you can't change it." Jiao Xian shook his head and said, "This dress has been with me for some years, and I have feelings." β
"If you have feelings for a piece of clothing, maybe you can scrape it up and reminisce about the years when you were young." Cai Wenji had an idea first.
This time, Jiao Xian put down the shirt in his hand, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "This is indeed a good idea." β
Then, he really adopted Cai Wenji's method, tied his clothes to the willow tree in front of the grass house, and from a distance it looked like a human skin hanging there, swaying in the wind.
Then Jiao Xian sat down by the fire calmly with his dry upper body, and said relaxedly: "Without the trouble of lice, and without the need to abandon my heavy robe, it is really much easier." β
Cai Wenji gently covered her face with her hands, and she realized that she seemed to have a bad idea.
"My girl is obviously not a good strategist, and he gave you a way to get rid of your old clothes, but you forgot that you don't have new clothes." Cai Yong said with a smile, took off his Confucian shirt, and handed it to Jiao Xian, "If Jiao Gong doesn't give up, it's better to wear me first." β
Jiao Xian took Cai Yong's shirt very calmly and said: "Given by the great Confucian, for me, this dress is equivalent to a treasure, how dare I talk about disliking such words." β
"I don't dare to do it." Cai Yong smiled and took the opportunity to ask again: "Jiao Gong thinks, can I be a leader?" β
Jiao Xian looked at Cai Yong with a smile, "You, you have lived for such an age, can't you figure it out, when you ask this, in fact, you already have the answer in your heart." β
"I think you're more worried about whether the emperor will reuse you when you ask to meet with him."
Cai Yong smiled bitterly and said, "I do have such worries. The current emperor may be because of his youth, and he seems to have a deep prejudice against us, the former ministers. β
Jiao Xian looked at Zheng Xuan, "Maybe Kang Cheng can tell you the answer." β
Zheng Xuan chuckled and said: "This, I really know that the current emperor is not prejudiced against the old ministers, he seems to be just worried that the old ministers will become stumbling blocks because of their past experience and knowledge. β
"Some of the Emperor's ideas are novel, like the Sunset Inn in this single father city. There are many dishes that the old man has never seen before, and the color, smell and taste are all excellent. Its appearance has made many restaurants in the city that have been in business for dozens or even hundreds of years lose their business. β
"Frankly speaking, the emperor will definitely reuse Bo Jiao, but it shouldn't be in the court, but in Taixue with me."
After hearing this, Cai Yong couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
He wanted to show his skills in the court, rather than teaching and educating people in Taixue in the future.
"How to make a trade-off, this matter still needs to be thought about, and others have said a lot, but it is just a little advice." Zheng Xuan said that he saw Cai Yong's thoughts very clearly, but there was no way to say more.
Everyone has their own ambitions and choices.
For him, Taixue is a good land, but for others, it may be a poor mountain and bad water.
"Kang Cheng's words, I have written them down, and I will consider this matter carefully." Cai Yong said.
β¦β¦
Before the class teacher returned to Beijing, a very important thing was to complete the harvest of summer grain.
This is not only something that Xun Yu thinks about repeatedly all day long, but also the worry in Liu Bian's heart.
Although he did not go to the field to guard the fields himself, his eager and anxious heart was not weaker than that of the people.
This year's grain harvest can be said to have a very direct impact on what he should do in the second half of the year.
After Xun Yu finished the reward, he hurriedly left the single father with someone.
He needs to personally inspect the various tuntian captains and keep an eye on the summer grain harvest.
In order to deal with possible natural disasters in a timely manner and harvest grain in a timely manner, Liu Wei also sent Zhang Xiu to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to accompany him, so that when necessary, he could quickly deploy manpower.
Liu Wei came out of Luoyang because of the shortage of food, and now he has returned to the problem at the beginning.
Along the way, although the army has always had enough food and grass, it is not lacking.
But the grain and grass in the court have never been rich.
The person who is sitting at this time is actually more anxious than the person walking in the field.
Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, and any mistake in any link will not make a delicacy.
And food is undoubtedly the main dish of governing the country.
Liu Wei, who was sitting quietly in the mansion and selecting from his memory to write down the knowledge of growing grain, suddenly heard Zhao Ye whispering outside, "Your Majesty, Cai Yong asks to see you." β
"When did this old boy get his single father?" Liu Wei put down his pen and asked casually.
"Your Majesty forgives me, the slave and maid don't know about this matter." Zhao Ye said in panic.
Several of the ten permanent servants died in his hands, and their lessons from the past made Zhao Ye dare not have the slightest restless behavior.
ε€ι’ηδΊζ οΌδ»η₯ιηεΉΆδΈε€γ
"Let him in." Liu Wei thought about it, but decided to meet this influential Confucian.
"Yui!"
Cai Yong, who is about the same age as Zheng Xuan, is much better than Zheng Xuan in terms of complexion.
With the two Zheng Xuan's figures, they can probably make up one Cai Yong.
"Shuren Cai Yong greets His Majesty the Emperor, Your Majesty for ten thousand years!"
Cai Yong glanced at each other, and knelt down very standard and slowly.
"The world is in an eventful time, and I am very pleased that Cai Gong can come to see me at this time." Liu Wei didn't know the purpose of Cai Yong's coming to see him, and after saying a word, he slowly drank tea and waited for Cai Yong's next words.
And although Cai Yong came, he didn't seem to have thought about what to say to the emperor.
He knelt on the ground for a moment with his head stuffed before he said: "The minister learned that His Majesty was holding the summer solstice examination in the capital this year, so he took the liberty to come to the audience. β
"Hmm...... Well. Liu Wei didn't know what to say in the face of such an extraordinary scene.
simply responded, and the right should be a meaning.
Cai Yong: ......
Liu Wei's indifferent attitude also made Cai Yong not know how to continue.
Although he did come to ask for an official, he couldn't just ask the emperor to reward him with an official.
His Confucian face does not allow him to do such a thing.
Cai Wenji...... Is there a marriage contract? Liu Wei suddenly asked.
He didn't want to talk to Cai Yong about national affairs and the national economy and people's livelihood.
Instead, he and Leyi talked about Cai Wenji.
Cai Yong glanced at the emperor in amazement, and quickly lowered his head, "Your Majesty, the little girl is still a Wei woman!" β
"Since Wei Zhongdao has long since died, in my opinion, Cai Wenji should be a free body now." Liu Wei said.
In fact, he has some contradictions in his heart until now.
That sharp-toothed little woman, Liu Bianzhen didn't know whether she had moved this thought, whether it was a blessing or a crime for herself.
And he had to come to a conclusion about this matter earlier.
Otherwise, you may not even have a chance to regret it in the future......
People who often play games should be very clear about the role of Cai Wenji, and most people also know that King Zuoxian of the Huns snatched Cai Wenji away and gave birth to two sons.
Basically, around this time period.
There is nowhere to guard against this, and there is no way for him to cross Jizhou to find trouble with King Zuo Xian now.
But Liu Wei was really worried.
In case he leaves, with Cai Wenji's out-of-the-box temperament, he sneaks away somewhere else, and maybe it will be sent to King Zuoxian's mouth.
Cai Yong's expression was a little shocked.
From the emperor's words, he heard very clearly what the emperor meant to Cai Wenji.
No wonder Zheng Xuan said something inexplicably.
As the emperor, the Hedong Wei clan would not have any opinion on this matter at all.
They may even offer a dowry.
"The minister also thinks it should be like this!" Cai Yong said with mixed feelings.
In fact, it is between them Cai and Wei, and everyone is a little affectionate.
If it is in an ordinary family, after losing a husband, you don't have to care about the so-called marriage contract at all, and it is normal to choose a good son-in-law.
"The virtuous name of Duke Cai, I have heard it many times when I sit in that cold palace. I want to revive Taixue, I don't know if Cai Gong is willing to take the position of doctor? Liu Bianyan was concise and asked simply and directly.
This result is exactly what Zheng Xuan said.
also made the only trace of expectation in Cai Yong's heart come to naught.
He originally thought that the emperor would put him in Taichang and hold a certain official position, but as a result, he was still too learned.
"This minister's wish is also!" Cai Yong was a little lost in his heart, but he still agreed.
When he can't change a result, but he doesn't want to continue to be a country idler.
Then you can only lower your own standards.
