Chapter 125: Cao Cao's Road
Needle drops can be heard.
It's not because the Sima family has any taboos, but because this is an invitation from the prime minister.
With the support of the prime minister, it is a huge help for any family!
"The old decay knows the destiny of heaven,"
Sima Jun smiled and said, "I don't care about the affairs of my children and grandchildren." ”
Yang Biao has never been reluctant to make people, and said with a smile: "Sima Gong can see it." ”
Wei Qi's eyes moved slightly, and he said: "Yang Gong, this reduction of redundant officials, is it to reduce the Eastern Capital, or to reduce the world?" ”
Before the words fell, the silence in the small room was even more terrifying than before.
Everyone held their breath and stared at Yang Biao.
It's okay to say that the court has been cut down, after all, the court has been in turmoil several times, and what each family should have lost has already been lost, and it is necessary to make up for it slowly.
However, if it is cut down to the states and counties, it is a different matter to involve them at all.
Now almost all the states and counties in the Han Dynasty are controlled by the family, and if you want to sit firmly in one place, whether it is a state or a county, you must have the support of the family!
"Today is only about Fengyue, regardless of political affairs." Yang Biao pushed it away lightly.
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but look at each other, and their hearts were secretly solemn.
The imperial court is obviously not only for the redundant officials in Luoyang City!
During the banquet at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Liu Wei met Liu Zhang in Fanglin Garden.
Liu Zhang obviously tastes good from snacks, white and fat, with round facial features and a simple face.
Liu Wei looked at him and said, "Liu Qing's family is very sick? ”
Liu Zhang sat opposite Liu Bian, bowed, and said, "Back to Your Majesty, my father has a serious back sore, and he can't lie down, so he can only lie on the bed, and he can't get out of bed for more than a month." ”
Liu Wei remembered that Liu Yan seemed to have died because of back sores, but he didn't know that he had it so early.
He nodded quietly and said, "Liu Qing's family has worked hard, how about I send someone to take Liu Qing's family into Beijing and be treated by a palace doctor?" ”
Liu Zhang blinked and said, "Your Majesty, the road from Yizhou to Beijing is difficult, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for my father to insist on going to Beijing." ”
Seeing him blurt out, Liu Wei knew that he had already prepared, and said, "Then let Liu Qing's family stay in Yizhou to recuperate." Before, Da Sima Mansion and Shang Shutai transferred some people from Yizhou to Beijing, what did Liu Qing's family think? ”
Liu Zhang's face did not move, and said: "Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, Huang Zhong seems to have gone to Taiyuan, and the others are unknown to the minister." ”
Huang Zhong is in Yizhou, and now his reputation is not obvious, Liu Yan only agrees with Huang Zhong and does not let others go, his heart can be imagined.
However, one Huang Zhong is enough for him to lose!
Liu Wei picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "If the Qing family is fine, write to Liu Qing's family and tell me about the situation in Luoyang City." Liu Qing's family is getting better, so he came to Beijing, his father believes in Liu Qing's family, and I also hope that Liu Qing's family can enter Beijing to help me one or two. ”
"Commandment." Liu Zhang said.
Liu Bian's eyes narrowed slightly, this Liu Zhang, from beginning to end, did not show any emotion.
'Is it that all my problems are expected by him, or is he too deep? ’
Liu Wei rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Liu Qingjia, what do you think about the reduction of redundant officials in the imperial court?" ”
After Liu Zhang knelt and sat down, his movements did not change a bit, only his lips moved, and when he heard Liu Liang's question, he just paused for a moment and said: "Your Majesty Shengming, all the princes and sages of the imperial court, this move is in line with the will of heaven and the will of the people, and Yizhou should obey it." ”
'It's not ordinary. ’
Liu Bian's eyes were full of smiles, this Liu Zhang is really not honest on the surface.
Since your city is so deep, you can't waste it.
Liu Wei put down the teacup and said: "Since the Qing family has entered Beijing, don't be idle, share your worries for me, enter Shangshutai, Ren Shangshu Lingshi, assist Wang Yun, and be responsible for this redundant official reduction." ”
The corners of Liu Zhang's face couldn't help twitching, and he raised his hand for a moment and said, "Minister's decree, thank you." ”
Cutting officials is an offended personnel!
At this time, a Zhonghuangmen quietly walked in, looked at the scene, came to Liu Wei, handed over a notebook, and said, "Your Majesty, the Great Sima Mansion sent it urgently." ”
Liu Wei sighed, took it, and after reading it, his expression was as usual, and he fell into deep thought.
The content of this recital is that Cao Cao trained soldiers in the forbidden army camp too harshly, and even killed more than a dozen people alive, at first one or two, the people in the forbidden army camp did not care, and when there were more than a dozen, they all realized the seriousness of the matter and began to report.
Liu Wei's eyes were calm, and he kept thinking in his heart.
It's not that he blames Cao Cao for training soldiers and died, but he has been thinking about Cao Cao's development direction - is he taking a civil official career in politics? Or take the general's route to lead the troops?
Cao Cao is definitely capable, although he hasn't shown it yet, he has amazing potential.
Whether it is from the evaluation of him by the people of the time, or throughout history, there are absolutely only a handful of people compared with his ability.
"Wenchen or military general?"
Liu Wei slowly twisted his eyebrows, uncertain in his heart, and hesitated.
In the past, he wanted to take another look and give Cao Cao some opportunities to exercise. But Cao Cao had something to do in the forbidden army camp, so he couldn't help but make a decision.
After a long time, Liu Wei was still a little hesitant and said, "Pan Yin, pass on the decree, Cao Cao...... Enter the palace. ”
"Yes." Pan Yin didn't know what was going on yet.
Liu Wei put together the notebook, gathered his thoughts, looked at Pan Yin and said, "Is there anything else outside the palace?" ”
Pan Yin glanced at Liu Zhang, came to Liu Bian's side, and whispered.
After he finished speaking, Liu Wei couldn't help but smile on his face and said, "People from the family actually did such a thing?" ”
Wang Lang used such a means to solve the troubles of the students, which Liu Wei never expected. I thought that these well-educated people from the family would use some conspiracy to come up, but I didn't expect it to be such a pediatric.
"But it works."
Liu Wei nodded, somewhat relieved, people came out one after another to do things, and there was no need for him to rush to the front.
Pan Yin didn't speak, waited for a while, took a piece of paperwork and handed it to Liu Wei.
Liu Wei took it, just at first glance, and quickly became serious.
This is the guest list of the guests at the Prime Minister's Mansion, although there are many rare words, but Liu Wei still sees a lot of clues from the surname.
These families in the opposition invited by the Yang family are famous and surnamed, and even the top families, naturally, those small families are not worthy of entering the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion at all!
Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar names, some surnames are more special, such as Sima, Gongsun, Zhugong, Yang and so on.
He still underestimated the influence of the Yang family!
No wonder the Yuan family in later generations is so prominent, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are still one of the best forces in the two places, but as long as they have a snack, or know how to converge a little, the expansion is not so fast, the Han world, there is no doubt that the surname will be changed to Yuan!
It will definitely not work as hard as Cao Cao, and he will not even become the second Wang Mang!
For a while, countless thoughts turned in Liu Wei's mind, until he felt a trace of coldness, and then he suddenly woke up.
Looking up, before I knew it, there were snowflakes floating in the sky.
Liu Wei has a special fondness for snow, especially walking in the snow and listening to the sound of clicking under his feet.
Stretching out his hand and then a snowflake, Liu Wei looked at Liu Zhang, and a thought suddenly popped up in his heart: military exercise!
The powerful military exercise is enough to deter some people's disobedience, make them reined, and free up more time for him!
Thinking of this, Liu Wei couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
Although Liu Zhang lowered his head, he had been quietly observing Liu Bian, seeing that he had been silent for so long, his expression was constantly changing, and at this moment a strange smile appeared again, and he chuckled in his heart, and quickly lowered his head.
With the idea of military exercises, Liu Wei made up his mind, stood up, and said: "Qing family, go, take a walk with me, and tell me about the situation in Yizhou." ”
Liu Zhang hurriedly got up and said with a humble face: "Yes." ”
Liu Wei walked out of the pavilion, there was no snow on the ground, and he walked and looked north.
In the northeast, Xun Youzheng took Huangfu Jianchang and a forbidden army of less than 300 to escort Ying Shao out of Wei County into Handan, and went straight to Julu.
Ying Shao is very thin, with slender faces, an ordinary face, a plain expression, and only a very thick beard.
He looked up at the snow that was falling from the sky.
Seeing this, Xun Yu stepped forward and said, "Envoy, it is estimated that there will be three days to reach Ye County." ”
Ye County, Jizhou Governing Office.
Ying Shao did not respond, and his expression did not fluctuate.
Xun You had met Ying Shao a few times before, but he didn't expect him to be such a calm personality.
I don't know if he can stabilize Jizhou. Xun You couldn't help but worry in his heart.
The importance of Jizhou is not only the salt policy, but the center of 'China', the first of Kyushu, and the fortune of the country!
Suddenly, Huangfu Jian stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Xun Shangshu, something is wrong. ”
Xun You was shocked, turned his head to look around, saw that the snow was fluttering, and there was no one, and said, "What did you find?" ”
Huangfu said long: "It's too quiet, there should be bandits here." ”
Jizhou is the place where the Yellow Turban Army rose up, although it has been pacified several times, but Jizhou is basically beaten to tatters, not only the imperial court is not effective, but the local state pastor and Taishou are also unable to exert their strength.
Ten rooms and nine emptiness, bandits are rampant.
Xun You's expression was dark, and he said, "You send more people to investigate, and you won't rest tonight, and then you will talk about the giant deer first." ”
Huangfu nodded calmly with a long face, turned around and beckoned Shi A, and then more than a dozen fast horses rushed out separately.
Ying Shao glanced at it and was silent.
Xun You was silent, and his heart gradually became uneasy.
Although they hide their identities all the way and never contact people, they will inevitably leak news all the way from Luoyang.
Whether it is a bandit or a person with ill intentions, they are all fat!
After walking for a while, a fast horse galloped back, landed on one knee and knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "Returning to the envoy Jun and Xun Shangshu, ten miles ahead, there is a group of people blocking the road that must be passed, and it seems that they are bandits." ”
Xun You's expression was cold, and he said urgently: "How many people are there?" ”
The soldier hesitated for a moment, and said, "There are at least two thousand people by sight." ”
Two thousand!
Everyone changed color, they were only two or three hundred!
It's only ten miles, and they can't turn back!
Xun You thought anxiously in his heart, and said to Ying Shao: "Envoy, it's better to lead them away, so that Jun will take some people to take the opportunity to pass through, and we will meet in Ye." ”
Ying Shao was indifferent, looked ahead, and said, "Are you sure it's a bandit, isn't someone pretending?" ”
The soldier immediately said, "That stockade is at least five or six years old, and it doesn't look like it's new." ”
"Xun Shangshu, let's talk a few words alone." Ying Shao turned his head and said to Xun You, his expression was flat, and his tone was flat.
Xun Yu had a calm face and nodded.
The two rode horses and walked far away.
Ying Shao said: "I came alone, I have no soldiers and no food, I am afraid it will be difficult to gain a foothold, I want to recruit this group of bandits." ”
The army of the Han Dynasty was mostly based on recruitment, and when the war was in progress, it was also customary to recruit bandits to fill the army.
Xun You was stunned, he never expected that Ying Shao would actually have such an idea!
He only had less than 300 forbidden troops, and if he wanted to recruit 2,000 men, he couldn't do it with empty promises.
Seeing that Xun Yu didn't speak, Ying Shao raised his hand and said, "Please also ask Xun Shangshu to help me." ”
Xun You's expression was as heavy as iron, and he was thinking of various ways in his heart.
He had never experienced a battle formation, had no experience in combat, and meditated.
Ying Shao didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.
After a long time, Xun Yu said solemnly: "Use the strategy of suspicious soldiers!" ”
"Thanks to Xun Shangshu." Ying Shao raised his hand.
Xun You nodded lightly, his task was to escort Ying Shao to Jizhou, help him gain a firm foothold, and gather some soldiers and horses, which was also his due intention.
'Two thousand bandits. ’
Xun You's heart was like a falling boulder. They have no choice, they can't escape, they can only make serious calculations.
The two joined up with Huangfu Jianchang and others and began to plan carefully.
Huangfu Jian also didn't expect that Ying Shao was not only not afraid, but also wanted to recruit that group of bandits!
