Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2454 The most difficult favor
General's House.

Perhaps it will be called the Prime Minister's Mansion in the near future.

Although it was getting dark, Boss Cao Cao was still reviewing various official documents.

While he was reviewing by candlelight, he was still teaching Cao Pi who was sitting on the side: "The hundred ministers in the court each have their own duties. Each is different.Now that you have grown up, you should know these responsibilities and powers, and you also need to know how to use power to do things, so I won't tell you more.These texts are the backup transcripts of Shangshutai’s previous approvals to various places. There are many affairs and each has its own ties. You should study and figure it out a lot to understand the use of power...』

Cao Pi listened to his father's teachings with a serious face, and he didn't know what thoughts were wandering in his mind.

During this period of time, Cao Pi did feel that his father was giving him more and more education. After all, the so-called political strategies and experience in governing and serving were not taught to him in such detail and detail that Cao Pi himself From time to time, I have to worry about it, and I am often under a lot of pressure. In order to complete the homework of Boss Cao, I am exhausted and exhausted.

But can't complain...

At most, it's just a few words of slander in the stomach.

After all, Cao Cao's attitude and behavior at the moment, it is obvious that he should be cultivated as a successor, and he should also start to try to share some political pressure.

When a heavy crown is worn on the head, it means that something has to be paid for the beauty of the crown, just like later generations need to pay for cervical deformity in order to watch short videos for a long time.

Cao Cao approved a few words, then put the official document in his hand aside, and picked up a new official document to read, but this time his reply speed was obviously slowed down...

This is a memorial from Lu Hong, saying that there are many discussions in Xu County, including Taichang Liu Yi, etc., who have slandered and slandered the general in public. Please order to strictly investigate.

"Taichang Liu Taiguo..." Cao Cao read the memorial, pondered for a moment, raised his head and asked Cao Pi, "What do you think of Taichang?" 』

Cao Pi thought for a moment, and organized his words, "Liu is a self-respecting old minister, although he is in a high position, he is not cautious, he speaks outright lies, he is stubborn, and his voice is hard to stop..."

While talking, Cao Pi observed the expression of his father, Boss Cao.

For old guys like Liu Yi, basically no matter what generation they are in, companies big and small will have them. They belong to the kind of people who don’t do much but complain a lot. .

When everyone is self-centered, he thinks that the whole world and the whole universe revolve around him. Only when the eyes are open can the sun and the moon be opened. I am as tall as a mountain, outstanding and detached.Some people will be educated to understand it when they were young, but some people will not, and then they will continue to be such a self-centered idealist until they are old.

It's like too often Liu Yi.

Liu Yi is from Nanyang.When he was young, Nanyang was rich, and he was of royal blood, so he was very popular in Nanyang. He didn't have to worry about food and clothing, beauties and concubines. You can eat with your face anywhere.Later, he was ranked among the three princes. Although he was only responsible for a year, he was the highest-ranking official in the Han Dynasty.

In terms of pedigree, there is pedigree, in terms of seniority, there is seniority, in terms of age, there is age, and in terms of fame, there is fame. Under such circumstances, Liu Yi is still extremely self-centered until now. The bad character of doing things is a matter of course.

What Liu Yi said most often before is also the most classic, that is, if he was still in Luoyang when Dong Zhuo came to Beijing, he would definitely not let the thieves be arrogant...

Well, when Dong Zhuo came, Liu Yi happened to be sick and went home on leave.

Cao Cao frowned slightly, and asked Cao Pi, "If you come to deal with this matter, what should you do?" 』

After Cao Pi heard the words, he pondered for a while before saying: "Why don't you change the old man to Zongzheng first?"Or Dahonglu?To save trouble. 』

Cao Cao nodded slightly, this was a thought, but Cao Cao was still not satisfied, and asked, "Besides this, what else can I do?" 』

Cao Pi suddenly got stuck, thought for a while, and gestured with some helplessness, "Or..."

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Isn't it shameful to be convicted for speaking out?" 』

Cao Pi blinked, and Mi responded, slandering, Dad, you said that, don't think I don't know how Xu died...

Cao Cao killed Xu You at the time, but he was actually a little helpless.

Whether it is in history or in the present, Cao Cao finally acquiesced in killing Xu You, not entirely because of Xu You's stinky mouth.Most of the time, Boss Cao is still relatively tolerant, or he will consciously or unconsciously maintain a magnanimous image, even if he is scolded like Chen Lin, who almost has a stroke, he will haha ​​afterwards Smile to show your generosity.

There is only one thing that Boss Cao absolutely cannot allow...

Well, it's not about stealing women.

is authority.

This is Boss Cao's backlash.

In history, Xu You actually made the same mistakes among the current big man, threatening Lao Cao's interests and power.When Xu You grumbled and complained at the beginning, Cao Cao didn't care, because he knew that when everyone complained, it was nothing to say a few words, but when Xu You's complaints were used by some caring people, When it becomes evidence, a tool, or a further threat, the whole thing is no longer simple.

Killing Xu You was not because of his complaints, just like Cao Cao killed Kong Rong, Yang Xiu, etc. in history, and it was not purely for killing people.

Cao Cao boasted that he was not a stingy person, nor a person who was stingy with famous titles. He treated many officials, nobles, powerful people, and even people who came from the princes such as Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, etc., as kindly as possible, but It is precisely because of this that Lao Cao is especially angry at these guys' betrayal of him.

How did the so-called "celebrities" like Xu You and Liu Yi become famous? Doesn't Mr. Cao know about it?I think Lao Cao played this trick back then.These "celebrities" did give Cao Cao some help during a certain period of time, even assistance that might change the situation of the battle, but in the same way, Lao Cao also gave them corresponding rewards, but these people were not satisfied. After taking power, he still showed an insatiable face.

Even so, Lao Cao didn't hack him to death every time he came up, but left a leeway until he was provoked again and again before he made up his mind to kill him.

Now, Lao Cao wants to give Liu Yi another way, a little life.

Although most people in Xu County now know that Emperor Liu Xie is like a bird in a cage, even if he flaps his wings, it is difficult to fly to the sky, but there are still some people who are not so much leading the salary that Cao Cao managed to get. , but generally I still prefer this caged bird in my heart, who regards himself as a lonely and loyal minister of the big man.

After all, the subtle influence of the 400 years of Dahan San is by no means comparable to a day's cold.

Therefore, since Cao Cao came to power, the resistance from these scholars actually made Cao Cao feel more embarrassed than ordinary officials.Especially the part of the people who Cao Cao personally conferred official positions on, including those in Yuzhou and Jizhou. If the scholarly power in Yuzhou and Jizhou is a strong support for Cao Cao's throne, then these people are the thorns in the support!
It's not right to let Cao Cao sit on Cao Cao's buttocks, let alone sit on it.

In fact, this is indeed the case, because the poor students in Yuzhou, Jizhou, those who are ambitious and capable, gradually passed away when the Guanzhong Sanfu rose. The eight tigers and eight major cuisines are cooks and the like, but as ordinary officials, there is no problem in undertaking general government affairs, and many of those who still stay here in Yuzhou, Jizhou are lying flat...

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, tore a new piece of paper, wrote a few lines, dried it a little, and then mixed it with Lu Hong's memorabilia, and asked someone to show it to Cao Pi, "Think about it..."

Cao Pi took it with both hands, unfolded it, and saw that it was written on the paper in the playbook,
"Elect Liu's son as Sima of Jizhou, and return to Ye on the same journey as Cui Shishi. 』

……(*≧∪≦)……

Guanzhong, Chang'an.

After nightfall, the patrol inspectors on duty began to patrol the streets in Chang'an City again.

After the news spread that Fei Qian had been named a great general, the gloom and tension that had shrouded Chang'an seemed to be blown away by such a breeze...

Well, that’s right, it’s the General Hussars to be precise, but it’s like in later generations, unless you deliberately have hatred, or you’re a fool, you will specifically address a certain “deputy” section chief, “deputy” section chief, Like the "deputy" in front of the title of "deputy" general manager and so on, the people in Guanzhong Sanfu naturally omitted the two words in front of "hussar general".

The Great General Hussars ranks above the Sangong, and the Great General also ranks above the Sangong, so in a certain sense, they are indeed similar.

In such a festive atmosphere, the original curfew was postponed, instead of closing the city at dusk, it was pushed back to Xuzheng time, which is [-]:[-] p.m. in later generations.

It's just that everything in the world is often like this, the more relaxed and free, the more people forget that after relaxation and freedom, there must be rules.

A horse-drawn carriage came from the Xinzhong Bridge on the Weishui River,

There were several strong servants following the carriage, and after getting off the Xinzhong Bridge, the carriage drove west along the street.

There was some sweat on the forehead of the groom who was driving, not because he was tired, but because he was nervous.

At this hour, Xuzheng had already passed, and it was almost the second quarter of Xuzheng, and they still had to travel some distance before they could return to Zhen's residence.Not only that, but when we get to the front of the workshop, we have to ask to open the gate of the workshop again, which will delay some time.Although in Chang'an Mausoleum, most of the lifangs will not be opened after they are closed, but in order to deal with some special matters, some lifangs will be outside the main entrance and have side doors for entry and exit.

"Hurry up! 』

"Don't be caught by the patrol! 』

The people in the carriage didn't care about the speed of the vehicle, which caused their buttocks to be bumpy and uncomfortable. They grabbed the railing with both hands and urged in a low voice.

The carriage kicked and kicked, and just turned around the intersection, seeing the square gate in sight, just as a team of inspectors rode out slowly from the far intersection...

Seeing the carriages and horses, the leader of the inspection captain immediately frowned, raised his arms to signal to the inspection behind him, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Who is in front?" !How dare you violate the ban on night walks!Stop quickly! 』

Following the voice of the patrol captain, four cavalrymen were already separated from the queue, holding bows and knives, they galloped forward along both sides of the street!

Almost in the blink of an eye, several cavalry arrived in front of the carriage.

Some of the servants on the left and right sides of the carriage subconsciously raised sticks horizontally to protect the side of the carriage, but most of them turned pale with fright and wished to hide under the carriage.

"You are so presumptuous! In front of the carriage, there were two or three sturdy servants, with a bit of military atmosphere, with hard wooden sticks in their hands across their chests, speaking with a Jizhou accent, seeing the cavalry approaching, they shouted loudly, "Don't frighten a certain family Owner! 』

The inspecting soldiers are naturally not very good gentlemen. Seeing that these servants were arrogant and did not find any obvious marks on the carriage, they unceremoniously raised their hands and shot an arrow, nailing the general to the front The servant's front foot was less than half a step away!

With a ding from the arrow, sparks splashed out on the bluestone boards on the street, penetrating into the stone!
The patrol captain came up close and shouted, "Abandon the weapons!get off!Otherwise shoot to kill! 』

A slightly trembling voice came from above the carriage, "Wait a minute... wait a moment...some...someone is the Zhongshan Zhen family... Zhen Yao is also..."

"What Zhen's? The inspection captain ignored it at all, and snorted coldly, "After the curfew, it is forbidden to walk at night, resisting arrest with weapons, and the crime will be aggravated!"A certain number of three sounds, if you don't get out of the car and be bound, you will be killed immediately! 』

"three! 』

"Don't do it!Get out of the car now, get out of the car now...」

……(/□＼*)~~……

The next morning.

Just after the door of the workshop was opened, outside the small courtyard where Zhen Mi lived, a person rushed over, rushed to the courtyard door, and slammed the knocker indiscriminately.

Not long after, someone asked a few words, opened the courtyard door, and welcomed the people in.

At this moment, Zhen Mi had just woken up not long ago and was dressing up.

The visitor threw himself under the hall and said in a mournful voice: "Miss Qifengmi, it's not good... Mr. Yaolang was arrested..."

Zhen Mi was startled for a moment, "What happened, why don't you tell me in detail? 』

The visitor kowtowed to the ground while recounting what happened last night.

Zhen Mi laughed back angrily, "I'm such a good cousin, I thought I was in Zhongshan, Jizhou?Coming to Chang'an City to show off your prestige, really... really...』

Zhen Yao is Zhen Mi's elder brother, and they are relatively close in blood, so he is Zhen Mi's cousin.

The Zhen family is in the Zhongshan area of ​​Jizhou. Of course, it is a well-known big family name. It is the type that stomps the ground and shakes the ground. Both black and white can be eaten. Naturally, it is in the Zhongshan area of ​​​​Jizhou. Wherever you go, you can walk sideways. As for what? If the rules are not in order, that's not a problem!
The county magistrate of Zhongshan wants to talk nicely to the Zhen family, not to mention any government servants under him to arrest the soldiers...

Zhen Yao, who was used to being rampant in Jizhou, came to Chang'an Sanfu, although Zhen Mi urged him and others persuaded him, but how could he change his old habits in a short while?
It's like a big boss from Hong Kong in later generations, who ended up being packed up by a second-tier or third-tier yamen and got out of the capital overnight. What's worse, Zhen Yao also brought a few loyal servants with him. He has an extra charge of "resisting arrest with a weapon"!

"Miss Mi!For the sake of the same blood, please save Mr. Yaolang! 』The person came and kowtowed on the ground, and after a short while, his forehead was broken, and a dark red spot was dyed on the ground.

"..." Zhen Mi was silent for a moment, and then said slowly, "You said it lightly... I have the same blood, hehe, if my mother didn't see me pitifully back then, she took some subsidies from her dowry to help me, Only then have these dilapidated families in Chang'an now!The same blood, hehe, did these same blood have pity on me at that time?Seeing that I have taken up the position of the Dahan Chamber of Commerce now, I come here in a hurry, claiming to be the Zhen family of Zhongshan with great fanfare, and entertaining shopkeepers of merchants everywhere... What is his mind, do you want me to say more?I completely disregarded the hard work I have put in these days in Chang'an!If he is pitiful, what about me?Who else will take pity on me? 』

The visitor couldn't answer, but just bumped his head on the stone slab under the hall.

Blood flowed, and soon there was a big puddle.

"Okay..." Zhen Mi frowned slightly, "Don't do this, don't mess up my yard... Then I can still be called a helpless, heartless, and unjust name. is not it? 』

Zhen Mi signaled to ask the servants at the side to put the person aside, and then asked the maid beside her, saying, "Is everything ready?" 』

The appearance is as docile as a bunny, and the maid looks like a bunny with two bunnies in her arms. She took out a thin handkerchief from the slit in the front of her chest and handed it to Zhen Mi with both hands, "My lady, get ready." Already, let my lady take a look...』

Zhen Mi picked up that piece of tissue paper, checked them one by one, and said in a slightly low tone, "I have no family here, but I still want to maintain it, so that no one will laugh at me, Mrs. Zhen..."

Whether a person is mature or not does not depend on his or her age, but only when he feels that he has to do something. It cannot be said that it is up to one's own temperament to blindly want or not want, that is to obtain precious growth.

As a noble daughter of the Zhen family, and later matched as a bride of a famous family, if it wasn't for Yuan Dingfeng who could only do it once, Zhen Mi's life would not have diminished in glory.In history, Zhen Mi was also burdened by the Zhen clan, otherwise it would not be Queen Guo's turn to laugh behind her.

In the early years, because of the wealth of her family, Zhen Mi only felt that all the things she enjoyed were her destiny. Looking at Zhen Yao now, it was as if she saw herself who was ignorant back then.This person, often only when he really encounters difficulties and feels the pain to the bone marrow, can he see something clearly, and only when he encounters a broken head on the road of life, can he understand that this road is not his own ability. You can walk wherever you want, wherever you want.

"I hope my cousin...will live up to your loyal servant in the future..." Zhen Mi glanced at the man who was bleeding all over his face, and even stained the front of his clothes, "Go down and bandage up first." ...I'll go find some favors in a while, see if I can reduce the guilt of my good cousin...』
