Although Zhang Han went to Dali Temple, he entered the courtyard through the courtyard, and went straight to the lobby, and when he came, there were many people standing in front of the door to watch, and those who were well-informed already knew that it was Qingting Hou and Tunqi Captain Zhang Han who were brought.

This person's resume naturally spread like rippling water.

"I heard that Zhang Han was born in Baiding, came out of the army, followed Sikong early, and made a great contribution to saving the driver when the Son of Heaven returned to the east last year."

"I heard that Zhang Han sacrificed his tuntian strategy in Yanzhou in his early years, expanded the army and saved millions of people from starvation."

"Hehe, but being greedy for money is a common saying, have you ever heard of 'wine and wealth'? It is used to describe these advisers under Sikong. ”

"Now it is not as good as it was then, to give advice to people, as long as there is talent, of course, you can make contributions in the early stage, and its master can endure its shortcomings, but if you are an official at the feet of today, it is for the flag, how can you have a bad word and bad manners? Zhang Bochang is already a lieutenant of the Tun Cavalry, and he has collected money as before, of course he can't. ”

"This brother's words, I agree with the subordinates, but the captain of the Tunqi is young and has high merits, but I am afraid that the school government can get it, but Dali Temple can't judge it."

"I don't think so, the establishment of the school office is already the biggest thing at the feet of the Son of Heaven, what do you think the school office is set up for?"

"Inspector of the Hundred Officials."

"Hehe, I see, it's ...... to hold power"

"Sikong is benevolent and righteous, and the government of the people has allowed how many displaced people to be preserved-"

"But it also makes the local people suffer a lot."

"It's hard to live in troubled times, and what is the merit of just suffering compared to a bumper harvest and food and clothing, and not being free from war?"

"Hahaha, shallow and crude words, you must be from a poor family, and you are so obsessed with Sikong words."

Outside the Dali Temple, all kinds of scholars gathered, surrounded by water, and blocked the people from the outside, Xu Du does not have to be back then, and now the officials and their families in the inner city are tens of thousands.

Thousands of people in the imperial city.

There were 100,000 people living in the outer city and around the city, and who could not care about it.

At this moment, in a corner outside the Dali Temple, several people in dark Confucian robes are looking at the temple gate.

One of them was young, with a slight beard, and his hands were in front of him, and when no one spoke to him, he frowned thoughtfully.

This person is slightly thin, with moles in the center of his eyebrows, and his eyes are compelling when his brows are wrinkled, but once he focuses on it, of course he will not exist, and he looks very kind.

His old friends around him sometimes found out about this, so they jokingly called him "Eagle Eye Wolf Gu", and he became famous when he was young.

This is the sons of the Sima family, Sima Lang and Sima Yi, as well as the people who came to Dali Temple to wait for the results.

Sima Lang is now being conscripted to Xudu Mansion to make a long history, but Sima Yi has not been conscripted.

Their family was secretly taken care of by Cao Cao, and the family members who wanted to follow the career of the official had a very good reputation.

This is not Cao Cao's intention to woo him, but when Cao Cao was the first lieutenant of the northern part of Luoyang, he was recommended by Sima Fang, the father of the two.

He must repay the Sima family's kindness, in this life, the recommendation is very heavy, even if the Sima family has been secretly against Cao, Cao Sikong will not kill.

In the case of helplessness, they will also choose to send them out of Xudu politely.

"Big brother," the young Sima Yi next to him leaned closer and said, "You say, what is the purpose of setting up the school office?" ”

"Law and order." Sima Lang's words were concise and to the point, and he didn't answer more, this Sima Changshi had a wide and square face, a righteous face, and a slight sense of recklessness, and a relatively burly figure.

In the past, when he was in Chang'an, he was recruited by Dong Zhuo as an official.

The luck of the Sima family is really not bad, although there have been several twists and turns, but when many families in Chang'an were oppressed, Sima Lang actually looked a little similar to Dong Zhuo's deceased son, so he did not suffer, but lived well.

When he arrived in Xudu, because Cao Cao, who controlled 100,000 soldiers and horses in Xudu, was recommended by Sima Lang in the early years, he was facilitated and his status was quite special.

Sima Lang is capable and sincere, never does anything beyond the norm, and has no political enemies in his family for several generations, so he can stand tall in the waves.

"Well, I don't think I should judge it so early......" Sima Yi was cold and quietly gave a completely different statement.

"What do you mean?" Sima Lang looked back at his younger brother, Zhong Da was not obvious since he was a child, but in fact, his talent was very smart.

It seems mediocre, but in fact, there are often ambitions hidden in the heart.

"Brother, foolish brother thinks that the result of today's case can determine why the school government was established."

"Elaborate." Sima Lang still doesn't understand, he likes to make his words clear, and he doesn't like to keep guessing in his words.

"Today, it is Zhang Junhou's greed for money, with the school affairs strictly investigated, and the Dali Temple Qing personally examined, if there is indeed something to maintain, it is unfair, it is the house of eagles and dogs set up by the sky."

"If it is true, and it is fair to seriously investigate and deal with the prince."

"What if it weren't?" Sima Lang then asked.

"If it is nothing, then it depends on the result given, there are so many scholars, wise men, and young talents present today, there must always be one side who can distinguish the winner from the loser."

"It didn't matter what the school was for when it was first established, but today's result is very important."

"As soon as this result came out, it determined what it would be in the future."

That's why so many people are paying attention.

Sima Yi continued to observe and think with his hands behind his back, and he suddenly felt that the treacherous clouds above the court seemed to have disappeared, but the other party was not completely out of position, and he had no power to fight back.

Although Sikong is invincible, conventional means cannot shake his slightest, but it is not without opportunities to start with his powerful cronies.

Moreover, Zhang Junhou is actually Sikong's son-in-law, and this relationship can make a big fuss.

I don't know, this move taken by everyone is really a helpless move in adversity, but it is also an extremely subtle move.

And the key lies in how the prince breaks the situation.

It is often heard that Sikong and the prince are around, and there are not many peerless wisdoms, but now you can see the truth of this statement.

"Zhongda, what do you hope for the outcome?" Sima Lang calmed down for a long time, and suddenly asked meaningfully.

As a brother, Sima Yi certainly understood what he said, and sighed: "Of course, I hope that Sikong is safe and sound, and Zhang Junhou's sin is in vain." ”

"It's not that the foolish brother is deviant and doesn't respect the direction of the family, but ...... Now this peaceful and calm scenery is too rare. ”

"Me too."

Sima Lang nodded neatly, they don't know the grievances of the previous generation, they are not too deeply involved, since they entered the Confucian forest, the party strife is gone, and the troubled times have been approaching for nearly ten years, and those who can calm down the suffering are the first.

"I hope that Zhang Junhou can be as rumored, both civil and military, and intelligent."

The two of them took a deep look and looked at the thick closed door of Dali Temple.

……

In the main hall of the government office, Zhang Han and Zhong Xuan knelt opposite each other and sat on both sides of the desk.

There was a tea set on the table, Zhong Xuan was cooking tea, accompanied by spices, preparing tea for Zhang Han, and at the same time laughing and chatting about the family's income of more than 30,000 gold.

"Can the prince explain how Yilu obtained the more than 30,000 gold hidden, and whether he was greedy for ink, took bribes, or robbed the people?"

"The wealth of the Hedong Wei clan is not a robbery, but a gift from the Cai family, the widow of the Hedong Wei clan."

"Akihime?"

"Hmm," Zhang Han nodded calmly, without squirming at all.

Immediately, there was a school affair to go out, and then the two began to talk about the great changes in Xudu, the vast land, countless fertile fields, the increasing number of people's houses in the fields outside the city, and the endless flow of caravans.

Because of the guidance of Zhong Xuan, the scene is more and more peaceful and leisurely.

About a stick of incense, the school came back to report, and the female doctor Cai Yan decided that this was indeed the case, and gave a large number of cloths, books, jewelry, jade, and countless small objects.

"Dr. Cai said that almost all the wealth of the Wei family in Hedong was given to the prince and the marquis to thank him for saving his life, otherwise these belongings have been plundered by the Southern Xiongnu cavalry."

"Okay, good ......" Zhong Miao happily wrote down a note on the file in front of him.

Then he asked: "There are more than 300 slaves registered in the prince's family, but there are 207 people living in the front yard, and each family has quite a lot of money," Zhong Xuan seemed to be smiling, waiting to see the joke, paused and continued: "Junhou, can I guess so." ”

"This man who is not a slave is in fact employed by the prince, who hides gold and silver in his house, and claims to be his property, which he can take out when the prince needs to use it in the future. All of them have hidden in their homes, and they have enough wealth of ten thousand gold. ”

Zhang Han looked up at him, his face pale.

The full pet on the side secretly pinched a sweat...... He is the person who Zhang Hanli overrode public opinion and kept up, but he values the law in his heart and does not dare to say more.

However, Dian Wei and Xi Zhong had relaxed faces and didn't care, just waiting for Zhang Han to speak.

In Dali Temple, there are also many smiles from Peng subordinates, these speculations, as long as you catch someone and ask, you will know that you have caught Zhang Han's tail.

"Heh," Zhang Han suddenly smiled, "Okay, Zhong Siqing, you must remember it clearly and in detail." ”

"That's nature."

Zhong Xuan personally wrote the record, the atmosphere is serious, and the temperament is that he will not bend the law for personal gain.

Zhang Han took a deep breath and said slowly: "Those two hundred and seven people are actually seventy-three households, Wang Yizheng, Li Daren, Liu Jian, Xu Ping ......"

He reported a lot of names in one breath, and then sat up straight, "These people are my brothers in the Dongqi Battalion of Yanzhou, in the spring of the third year of the first peace, I served as the capital of the army, and I led eighty-nine people, which later increased to one hundred and twenty-seven. ”

"Yu Neihuang met the rebel party, and Cao Zixiao, the general of the army at that time, sent me and Wang Qin to lead the people to guard the retreat of the thieves in Zixiong, and was defeated, and was broken by it, and then entered a bloody battle, because they were outnumbered, they were destroyed by the enemy, and the enemy army was 16,000 people."

"Before the war, the brave men in the countryside begged me to write down the names and residences of their families, and I didn't know what they meant, so I wrote down the records in rags one by one."

"Before breaking the barrier, my brother entrusted me with rags, begging me to run back and entrust my family to my care, including children and the elderly."

"What proof is that?" Zhong Xuan's brushstrokes stopped, raised his head solemnly, and looked at Zhang Han with a trembling face.

"The rag, which I wrote with my own pen, has now been re-stitched into a whole cloth, and Siqing can send the school to my house to find my personal soldier Jia Xu, and I put this cloth under the floor of the fireplace."

"What?" Xi Zhicai glanced at Zhang Han in surprise, "Why is it placed under the floor of the fireplace?" ”

Zhang Han said with a smile: "You are all heroes in the world, and I, Uncle Zhang, am often not a person who has gained new friends and forgotten his old brothers." ”

"In the past, they told me that they wanted to make friends with erudite and talented heroes who had the world in mind, but Zhang asked himself that he had many shortcomings, and he didn't dare to call himself a hero, so he naturally wanted to take them to make friends with him."

Xi Zhicai was surprised when he heard this, his nose was a little sour, and he admired Zhang Han in his heart for a while.

Even Zhong Xuan had nothing to say.

The whole main hall couldn't help but be quiet.

At this time, Dian Wei said coldly: "Such righteousness, you are not a hero, who is a hero?" Whoever wants to cure the sin of the prince and marquis in this way today, Dian will beat him to death in the court. ”

After saying this, the thirty-six school officials in the entire main hall all clenched their fists and secretly prepared.

Of course, it is very likely that they are going to beat others with Dian Wei, after all, these people also get along with Zhang Han a lot on weekdays.

The school only knew Zhang Han's martial arts and majesty, but he didn't know that he was such a righteous hero.

The corners of Zhong Xuan's mouth twitched, and his face twitched...... This Dian Wei definitely didn't understand the easy-to-understand truth of "where the duty lies", and his mind was full of righteousness.

"Brother Dian, don't be presumptuous," Zhang Han glanced back at him, and his words were meant to be warned.

And half an hour later, he went to collect the school affairs of the directory and inquired about the seventy-three schools, and came back before and after, and went into the church to report together.

The list of writers and the statements of questioning can be shown, and what Zhang Han said is not half a lie.

During this period, when Zhong Xuan was already chatting casually, he secretly repeatedly asked many things about Zhang Han's war with Zheng Gu and Yu Yu during his tenure as Dubo, which can be said to be true.

At this point, he had to admire it.

"The land of Xu County was purchased at that time, the land was a wasteland, and the houses were scattered, although I had the reward of merit, but it was difficult to buy seventy-three family properties, so I could only find a cheap land, so I took Xu County, who knows...... Later, it was changed to Xu Du, and it was sold in more than a dozen places, and it was gathered in a courtyard, privately thinking that it could become a beautiful talk, but I didn't expect it to become a stain. ”

"As for those jewels......

When Zhang Han said this, he laughed miserably: "These jewels and gold and jade are to be punished, and Zhang can't argue with it, many of these are gifts when they get married, and many of them are also gifts from the Son of Heaven." ”

"Zhong Siqing can record all today's words?"

Zhong Xuan nodded, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, no matter how big or small, everything is in the record." ”

"Okay, let's add one more sentence," Zhang Han took a sip of bitter tea, looked down at the table, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Zhang Bochang, I am willing to resign from the post of Tun Cavalry Captain, remove the Marquis of Qingting, and atone for the common people, so as to appease the anger of the minister." ”

"Alas!" Zhang Han sighed, and suddenly said loudly: "I don't see the ancients before, and I don't see the comers after." Thinking of the world and the world, I was alone and wept ......"

With that, he closed his eyes and said no more.

When Zhong Xuan heard the last verse, his body was shocked, and he actually felt empathy, and then goosebumps rushed from his back to the top of his head.

Loneliness, how lonely......

……

Sikong Province.

Cao Ang was left at home today and did not go to Zhang Han's side to accompany him.

Originally, he would arrive before the hour every day to start his duties as a guard, but today he was deliberately left at home.

After listening to Cao Cao's explanation, Cao Ang was not very worried, and asked tentatively, "Father, are you...... It seems to be relaxed, and he didn't bother to ask about it at all, he should be very confident in Brother Bochang's character, right? ”

Cao Cao smiled, "Hehehe...... No, I'm just waiting to see how much savings this kid has in his family. ”
