Chapter 20: Bullying Clearly

Zhang Da spent a few days in Luoyang.

has to be awarded the post of general, and the Luoyang mansion is just returned.

Within ten months, he was summoned by His Majesty five times, entered the palace to face the saint, and Si Juncao.

This is a miscellaneous general, except for the old and famous ministers in the court, who has such treatment.

But after Zhang Da was stable for a few days, he felt more and more uneasy.

As the person concerned, Zhang Da clearly felt that the favor shown by the imperial court was completely for outsiders to see.

It is true that he has been summoned by His Majesty many times, but his participation is never a matter of importance.

And with his identity, the important ministers present can suppress him more than once, and Cao Pi has never taken the initiative to ask his opinion.

Jia Xu showed importance to him.

After taking over the post of Cao Peng, the commander of the army, Zhang Da reported all the military deployment and logistics routes of the Shu army that he knew.

Jia Xu was extremely satisfied, and personally went to the table to ask for credit for Zhang Da.

It's just that the imperial court only gave money and silk to show favor, and the rest ...... Gone!

If it's just Zhang Da himself being idle, then that's fine.

There is no incompatibility between Wei and Shu, and the two families of Sun and Liu are bound to fight because of the death of Guan Yu and Jingzhou.

At that time, it will be a godsend for Cao Wei to take advantage of the fire to rob.

As a rebel general of the Shu army, he is familiar with the military affairs of the Western Front, and he is not afraid of not being reused.

But can he wait, what about the men he brought?

After facing the saint, Zhang Da thought that the imperial court would soon reward his subordinates who followed him to fight.

Regardless of whether the official is big or small, at least he has a position and can calm the hearts of the soldiers.

However, the court seemed to have forgotten such a thing.

Fortunately, everyone has great respect for Zhang Da, and they will not resent Zhang Da because of this incident at all.

But Zhang Da didn't want to go.

It is because they trust themselves that they follow all the way, and they have broken through life and death to make a living, and their friendship with each other is far better than that of robes.

He himself did not have the right to write directly, so he could only wait while distributing the money and silk given by the imperial court to everyone, and at the same time asked Steward Zou to help everyone buy a homestead near Luoyang, and settle down first and then plan for Xu Tu.

Unexpectedly, at noon, Wu Chang Xu and others returned to the mansion with injuries, but Steward Zou was nowhere to be seen.

"What's going on!"

Zhang Da's face sank instantly.

Xu Ping's injuries were not light, but they had their own backbone, and no one snorted at the gate of their house.

Hearing his general's inquiry, the grievances along the way had a place to vent.

Xu Ping gritted his teeth and said what happened.

They went out to buy fields, and there was a manager Zou who was familiar with the surrounding situation, which was very smooth.

Today, I went to pay with the money, and I took the land with one hand, and we rejoiced in each other.

Unexpectedly, after the transaction was completed, the local tun chief suddenly led a group of people and Jing Zhaoyin's messengers to kill.

They insisted that Xu Ping and others had encroached on the land, and if they did not obediently hand over the land deeds, they would be punished with serious crimes.

Steward Zou stepped forward to argue, but people didn't listen at all, and the leader slapped Steward Zou to the ground with a slap on the spot.

Xu Ping was born in the military, so where could he swallow this breath, and directly moved with the other party.

As a result, there were many people on the other side, and Jing Zhaoyin's poor people had weapons in hand, not only did they suffer a big loss, but they also let people surround them and take them back to the government to punish the crime.

"At that time, it was Steward Zou who stood up and identified himself, as the manager of the General's Mansion, he was the leader in terms of identity, and he took the initiative to take responsibility and was taken away, so Xu Ping and others temporarily escaped and hurried back to the mansion for help."

Zhang Da was surprised and suspicious: "Isn't it the military merit field that Steward Zou took you to buy?" How could there be a messenger from Jing Zhaoyin who got involved and forcibly punished your sins? ”

Zhang Da knew the details of buying land for his subordinates.

After the rebellion at the end of the Han Dynasty, the population of various places was greatly reduced, and in troubled times, wars could break out at any time.

In addition to directly rewarding the fields of meritorious generals, the imperial court also set aside the so-called "military meritorious fields", that is, giving priority to the purchase of fields for meritorious low-level generals and rewarded soldiers and resettlement of their families.

Xu Ping, who was known as a general of Fenwei, bought land in the military merit field, how could he buy other people's land and get the charge of "encroaching on the property"?

"General Mingjian, those fields are indeed military merit fields, and Steward Zou has confirmed it again and again."

"But the people led by the other party, as well as Jing Zhaoyin's poor people, insisted that it was their property."

Zhang Da instantly felt wrong, and smelled a smell of conspiracy from it.

"What the hell is the other party?"

"What is the name of the person they lead, Sima Yi, the faction is very big, and the people of Jingzhao Yin Mansion are like subordinates in front of them."

"When Steward Zou pleaded to Jing Zhaoyin, Sima Yi also said that as long as it is the land property that our house wants to buy, it is all owned by the Sima clan in Hanoi, and it is just a miscellaneous general, and the Sima clan has not taken it seriously."

"The crime of embezzling land and property, general, you can't get out of it, if you don't get to Jingzhao Yin's mansion, it's as simple as arresting more than one steward."

Zhang Da laughed angrily.

He has no grudge against the Sima family at all, and in the final analysis, he just taught a child of the Sima family on the street.

Unexpectedly, so many of his soldiers were directly injured today, and the steward of the house was arrested!

"Okay, Sima, right? Wang Xiaowu, bring people, let's break into Jing Zhaoyin and see how the Sima clan is going to refer to the deer as a horse and reverse black and white! ”
