Han Dao world

Chapter 182

Liu Xie then asked another question, what about Guanzhong?
Jia Xu looked up. "If I take a trip, I may be able to solve the crisis in the pass and recruit thousands of elite horsemen for your majesty."

"Are Han Sui and Ma Teng willing to listen?"

"Han Sui is ambitious, so he may not be willing to listen, but Ma Teng will definitely listen. As long as Ma Teng does not send troops, Han Sui will not dare to act rashly."

Liu Xie thought about it and felt that Jia Xu was right.

It's rare that Jia Xu is so proactive, so let him do it.If it can be done better, if it cannot be done, there will be no regrets in the future.

"It's just that once the master leaves, I have something to do here, who should I discuss with?"

Jia Xu turned to look at Xun You with a slight smile. "Your Majesty, Xun Shizhong is in his prime of life, he is resourceful and decisive, and he is not chaotic in the face of danger. With him making suggestions for His Majesty, His Majesty will be able to win by surprise, and good news will spread frequently."

Liu Xie raised his eyebrows lightly.

He trusted Xun You because he knew what kind of person Xun You was.

It is strange that Jia Xu trusts Xun You so much.They should have no contact.

At this time, Jia Xu took the initiative to ask to go to Liangzhou. Is it to avoid suspicion or to test?

"Have you two had a relationship before?" Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu, then at Xun You, with a slight smile on his face.

Xun You shook his head and looked at Jia Xu with the same doubt.

Jia Xu stroked her beard and smiled. "There is no communication, but there have been fights. Xun Shizhong has the strength to stay calm, and he is calm when he is in prison. I admire him very much."

Xun You's expression changed. "Oh it's you?"

Jia Xu nodded. "It's me. Xun Shizhong, the party members value reputation and lack real talent. They are definitely not good companions. They should be respected and kept at a distance."

Xun You pondered for a moment, then bowed his hands and saluted. "Thank you, sir." Then he turned to Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know something. At the beginning of Dong Zhuo's chaos, the officials and Yilang Zheng Gongye (Zheng Tai), the long history He Boqiu (He Yong), and the servant Zhong Yuanfu (Chong Ji) ), Yueqi school lieutenant Wu Wuyu (Wu Qiong) conspired to assassinate Dong Zhuo. The plan was not secret, and the minister and He Boqiu were arrested. The strange thing is that there has been no court, and he was released after waiting in prison for more than ten days."

Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu. "Is it sir who ordered the arrest?"

Jia Xu sighed. "As Dong Zhuo's counselor, I couldn't sit back and watch Dong Zhuo be assassinated, and I couldn't bear the death of a loyal man, so I had to arrest him and put him in prison before his deeds were revealed. Unfortunately, I didn't know that Wu Wuyu was also involved in the incident, and only Xun Shizhong and He Boqiu were arrested. He Boqiu died in sorrow and anger, and Xun Shizhong was as immovable as a mountain, and he never showed any flaws."

Liu Xie couldn't help laughing.

Does this count as friends not getting together?
Jia Xu and Xun You also looked at each other and smiled, expressing pity for each other.

After the discussion, Liu Xie ordered someone to draft an imperial edict to make Jia Xu appease Han Sui and Ma Teng with integrity.Duan Yao led the troops and rushed to Shangdang to assist Zhong Yao.Yang Feng also speeded up his schedule, trying to cross the river as soon as possible, contact the Baibo army, and prepare for battle.

-

After leaving the tent, Jia Xu and Xun You stopped walking with a tacit understanding.

"Sir, see you in Hedong."

Jia Xu stroked his beard and smiled. "Hedong is so insignificant. When you and I meet again, we will be in Meiji."

Xun You thought for a while, and nodded his head in agreement. "I hope this battle can reorganize the rivers and mountains, relieve the worries of the elbows and armpits, and revive the prestige of China."

Jia Xu sighed. "Gongda, I envy you."

"Why did you say that, sir?"

"I'm nearly half a hundred years old, and I don't have many days left. I'm afraid I won't see the day when His Majesty reorganizes the rivers and mountains. The phoenix is ​​not a phoenix tree, and Gongda has a peerless talent. He should cherish it and don't let the time go to waste."

Xun You arched his hands and gave a salute. "Thank you sir for your support."

Jia Xu bowed his hands to return the salute, and walked forward slowly.

Xun You followed, half a step behind.

Neither of them spoke, yet they seemed to have said everything.

-

After Liu Xie washed up, he sat back in front of the case again.

Talking with Jia Xu and Xun You took some time, and he still has a lot of official documents to deal with.

Many things don't need him to decide, but Situ Zhao Wen and Sikong Zhang Xi seem to be doing it on purpose, no matter how big the matter is, even if they have already made a decision, they still have to send it to him.

The name is to let him be familiar with government affairs.

Liu Xie does need to be familiar with government affairs, even if he delegates power in the future, it will be based on his knowledge of government affairs.Otherwise, when the three lords and nine ministers came to report on government affairs, he would be ignorant and would inevitably be deceived.

Fortunately, Shang Shu made Pei Mao considerate, and marked all the possible problems, which saved him a lot of pitfalls.

After processing, it was already midnight.Song Dou, who was serving the bed, couldn't bear it anymore, had already fallen asleep, was awakened by the sound of Liu Xie going to bed, and rubbed his sleepy eyes and got up to serve.

Liu Xie went to bed, his body was very tired, but his mind couldn't stop.

He remembered Cai Yan's "Biography of Scholars" and "Biography of Cool Officials", so he asked Song Du a question.

"Have you read "Tai Shi Gong Shu"?"

"No, the concubine has only read Master Cao's "The Commandments for Women." Song Du was stunned for a while. "Thinking about it now, it seems useless."

"Why do you say that?"

Song Du remained silent, and after a while, he snored and fell asleep.

Liu Xie couldn't laugh or cry, tucked in the quilt, blew out the lamp, and closed his eyes.

-

In the tent next door, Cai Yan also put away the last paperwork, opened his arms, and stretched.

Tang Ji came over and put a bowl of porridge in front of Cai Yan. "Drink the porridge. After drinking the porridge, get up and take two steps, move around before going to sleep."

"Thank you, madam." Cai Yan took the bowl and said with a smile, "What am I capable of, to ask madam to prepare supper for me."

"What virtue and ability do you have? Your virtue is great." Tang Ji also smiled and said: "Since you made this order, many women have followed suit. Even if it is just some small things, it is enough to make people gratified."

Cai Yan's eyes lit up. "Yes, there is something to do, like duckweed has roots, and my heart is settled." She took a sip of porridge and said, "Madam, is she willing to accept the matter of Zhifang?"

"I haven't decided yet." Tang Ji leaned on the table and looked at Cai Yan. "Zhao Ji, do you think I should accept this matter? It stands to reason that Shang Fang should be responsible for this, which is in line with the system. The emperor is considerate of me, and I am naturally grateful. It's just that it violates the system, which is inappropriate."

Cai Yan shook his head. "I don't know what the emperor thinks. As for the system, Madam don't have to worry about it. In a time of chaos, everything is subject to power, how can we fully follow the system. In my opinion, the emperor has a lot to do, and Shang Fang will only do it at that time." I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it. It would be great if Madam could help share some of the burden."

"Since you said so, I'll go to the camp tomorrow to have a look. Zhao Ji, do you have time? It would be even better if you could go with me."

Cai Yan glanced at Tang Ji and said with a smile, "Madam, why don't you bring Song Guiren or Dong Guiren with you? They must be very happy, especially Dong Guiren."

Thinking of Dong Wan who couldn't stay idle, Tang Ji couldn't help laughing.

Cai Yan stared at Tang Ji without blinking.

Tang Ji was puzzled, and reached out to touch her face. "What's wrong?"

"Madam looks so pretty when she smiles." Cai Yan withdrew his gaze. "Perhaps this is the wish of the emperor. After the catastrophe, even a simple smile is so precious."

Tang Ji sighed faintly, stretched out her arms to embrace Cai Yan, and shook her gently.

"As the Son of Heaven said, we are all fallen people at the end of the world."
