Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 593
The 19th year of Xiping, July
There is a yellow dragon in the well of Zhuojun.

Hua Xiong was sitting in the tent. To be honest, he really didn't want to burn these things. After reading these, he seemed to be looking at his achievements these days, and he was very proud that he had done so many things. Sure enough, this Reading is beneficial, Hua Xiong couldn't help thinking, holding these and looked at them again, until the next day, he reluctantly burned them, and when he came out, the people were still busy building.

The death of these sages has no effect on them.

For Hua Xiong, it was even better and saved a lot of feed.

Of course, it was not without any influence. In the evening, the governor of Liangzhou came here. He also brought hundreds of soldiers from the county and county. While discussing how to formulate the amount of supplies that the common people will get from the construction, they heard a report from the official Sikong that the governor of Liangzhou had arrived, Yuan Shao didn't care, let the governor wait, and continued to be busy.

Sikong's subordinate officials also went out, and directly asked the governor to wait outside, and came to see Sikong after he finished his work.

"Yuan Benchu!! You are too deceitful!!"

Hearing a loud roar, one person rushed into the camp. This person had a long beard, was dressed simply, and his face was flushed. He was a little angry. When he entered the tent, he looked at Yuan Shaolai who was busy with the desk. Yuan Shao was not surprised at all, he raised his head indifferently, looked at the man, and said, "Why are you so rude?"

The governor laughed angrily. He looked at Yuan Shao and asked, "I'm rude?? Why did Sikong come to relieve the disaster and kill me privately as an official in Liangzhou?!"

"Privately killing Liangzhou officials?? Let me tell you, I, Yuan Benchu, the fifth generation and third prince, has been Zhongliang for generations. When I meet such a mediocre and incompetent fool who endangers the local area, let alone the county magistrate, even the governor, I can kill him!!" , Yuan Shao said coldly, but put his hands on his waist. The man was not afraid, sneered, and said: "It seems that Yuan Gong wants to kill me together?? Well, I am here today. Here, please trouble Mr. Yuan to do it!!"

Without further ado, Yuan Shao got up, drew his sword, and was about to go there. Hua Xiong quickly grabbed Yuan Shao's lapel and said, "Duke Yuan!! Wait a minute!! This is the local governor, not the county magistrate. He is called Mao Jie, but the magistrate. The world-renowned upright official, the kind of shabby family, the emperor valued him very much, you can't kill this person here, the Yuan family is powerful, and it is enough to send assassins and dead men, why bother to do it yourself? 1"

"Bastard! It's not a personal enmity between me and him!! It's a personal enmity, and my Yuan family doesn't have any assassins or dead men!!" Yuan Shao jumped into a rage, swung the long sword in his hand, and almost chopped Hua Xiong.

Mao Jie sneered, looked at them, still without any fear, he said: "Even if you are Sikong, you are not qualified to kill my Liangzhou officials privately. I will definitely report this to the emperor in the temple!"

"Liangzhou was hit by a disaster. As the governor, you didn't come to relieve the disaster yourself, but you still hired these idiots. Look at what methods they used to relieve the disaster. If there is a disturbance, you will be responsible?? You Can you still stand here and argue with me?"

"When the disaster happened, I was here. After Lieutenant Hua entered Liangzhou, I left because of important matters. No matter what the crimes of the local officials, as long as it is not a rebellion, you cannot kill yourself without permission!! For this matter, I'm not finished with you!!" Mao Jie said, turned and left, Yuan Shao watched him leave with disdain, and said: "Incompetent people can only use their tongues, stupid thieves just kill them, like this guy , When will Liangzhou be revitalized? I will also be crowned Emperor Zou and sue him for death!"

Hua Xiong stood aside, didn't speak, but smiled, nodded, and said, "That's exactly what it should be."

When these two memorials arrived at the temple at the same time, the emperor had some headaches. The first was Mao Jie's memorial. In the memorial, Mao Jie scolded Yuan Shao, saying that he killed officials arbitrarily, ignored the laws of the Han Dynasty, and committed a heinous crime. , asked the emperor to punish severely. In addition, Yuan Shao's memorial table was not much different. He also criticized Mao Jie severely, and informed the local officials in detail of their practices, and asked the emperor to severely punish Mao Jie for his crime of negligence and dereliction of duty.

Sitting in the hall of Houde, the emperor didn't know what to do. He looked at the watch and fell into deep thought. Mao Jie was a minister he liked more. With the wind of incorruptibility, Liangzhou, which was shattered by the war, improved again in a short period of time. As a necessary place for merchants to go to Xizhou, it is not difficult for Liangzhou to develop. Planting cash crops such as cotton in Liangzhou intends to improve the poor situation in Liangzhou.

Not to mention Yuan Shao, as Sikong, this person has done very well in recent times, many important affairs of the country are done by him, and his political achievements are outstanding.

When encountering such a thing, what the emperor thinks is not who is right or wrong, but who is more important to him.

It was difficult to separate the two, so the emperor could only punish Yuan Shao and appease the governor Mao Jie. The emperor told Mao Jie in a letter that he would punish Yuan Shao severely and let him continue to do his own things in Liangzhou. Writing a letter to Yuan Shao, asking him to hand over the disaster relief to Hua Xiong, and returning to the temple by himself, took away his achievements in disaster relief and gave Mao Jie an explanation. However, it is unlikely that he will be dismissed from office or imprisoned. .

The Son of Heaven was thinking about it in the Hall of Houde, when he heard crying from outside, and saw Han Men walking in, with tears all over his face, walking in front of the Son of Heaven, he knelt down without saying much, Crying loudly, the emperor was shocked, got up quickly, and asked, "What happened?"

"The country, the country is the master of the servant, the slave's nephew was killed..." Hanmen cried, the emperor was relieved, just now, he thought that something happened to that important minister again , but Hanmen's nephew was killed?The emperor asked with some doubts: "Don't cry, who is your nephew? How did he get killed?"

"In the country, the servant's nephew is called Han Yin. He was originally a student of the Taixue, but later passed the examination and went to Liangzhou to become an official. However, he didn't know what he had committed, and was killed by Yuan Sikong without trial. The country wants to be the master of the slave! !", Hearing the words of the Han family, the emperor finally understood that there were relatives of the Han family among the officials killed by Yuan Shao? ?The emperor looked at him and said helplessly, "Get up!"

Hanmen stood up weeping and looked at the emperor.

"Your nephew was a local official, but he didn't care about serving the common people. He was so negligent that he was killed. However, Yuan Benchu's behavior was a bit too much. Don't worry, I have already issued an imperial edict to him Go back to the temple, when the time comes, I will punish you severely and let him pay you money again, don't blame Sikong, after all, your nephew is also at fault."

The emperor persuaded, Hanmen nodded and bowed, thanking the emperor for his kindness.

Hanmen walked out of the Hall of Houde a little lonely, with a charming smile on his face, but indescribable sadness in his eyes, there was no one else in his family, only this nephew, the only son of his elder brother, the eldest brother will He grew up by himself, but died of illness, his age was about the same as his nephew, in order to support him, to support his family, he came here, suffered countless grievances, even humiliation, just thinking that he could live a better life.

Now, he is dead too.

But Hanmen can't do anything, all he can do is cry to the emperor, other than that, he can't do anything, even, when the emperor wants Yuan Shao to pay for him, he can only smile, thank you The grace of the Son of Heaven.

Hanmen laughed sadly, and then slapped himself hard.

The next day, Zhao Wen played the Son of Heaven, hoping that the Son of Heaven could meet the envoys of the northern countries. The ministers had already arranged many things, and it was just a formality to let them see the Son of Heaven, so that they could feel the importance that the Son of Heaven attached to them. The countries are connected to the Fuyu country, and the Fuyu country is directly under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, but these countries are not. Although they are affiliated to the Han Dynasty, they are not directly managed by the Han emperor.

When the ministers gathered at the gate of the temple, Lu Zhi had already arrived. He was leaning on crutches and trembling all over. There were many ministers standing beside him. Dahonghe Zhao Wen said helplessly: "Mr. , The emperor has something to say, so that you don't have to come to the court early, you can directly report to the emperor, why are you doing this?" Lu Zhi laughed and said: "As a Situ, how can I stay in the mansion and give a performance to your majesty? ??"

"What's more, these envoys are all handled by me. How can I not go to their court meeting?" Lu Zhi shook his head and waited for a long time. Chen walked into the palace and walked to the gate. He took off his shoes slowly. Originally, at his age, he didn't have to take off his shoes. Even if he entered the palace with a sword, no one could say anything wrong with him, but Lu Zhi insists on this, this is etiquette, how can it be ignored? ?

With the support of the two Huangmen, Lu Zhi led his group of officials towards the main hall.

Alas, it seems that I should give up the position of Situ.

Lu Zhi thought to himself, he thought that he could be like Cui Gong, relying on his old age to help the emperor and deal with all the affairs in the temple. Whoever scolds, no one can fight back, and he can't fight back. To put it bluntly, even if he is in court, he scolds the emperor, or beats him with a cane, the emperor can't punish himself.

However, not everyone can be like Cui Gong, who can still go to court after the age of eighty, and still have the strength to swear.

Anyway, Lu Zhi couldn’t do it. He spent half his life in the army, practicing all day long, riding horses and archery, and then went to the northern frontier. In the cold, he fought against snow disasters for several years, which made him suffer from countless diseases. When the weather is cold, he feels pain all over his body, especially his knees and back, which hurt terribly. Even when it is warm, he can only wear more clothes. It can't be done.

A gust of wind blew, and Lu Zhi slowly raised his head, with some consternation in his eyes.

He took a deep breath, and Huang Men, who were supporting him around him, also felt his strangeness, and quickly said, "Mr. Lu? Mr. Situ?!"

Lu Zhi turned around suddenly, looked at Zhao Wen among the ministers, and waved his hand to signal him to come.

Zhao Wen was taken aback, and hurried out, walked to Lu Zhi's side, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Lu? Are you feeling unwell?"

"In the northern countries, there are many tribes. It is impossible to send a country to govern. Let merchants buy their copper and iron production areas at a low price, hire their people to dig, and then make various finished tools and sell them to them. In addition, they come to For trade within the Han territory, let their merchants pay the Han tax, and for our merchants, if they dare to accept the tax, let Xu Rong kill their king, Cao Cao, I am dead, Cao Cao can be a Stuart."

"Mr. Situ, I know, I know, come here!! Come here!!! Go and call the imperial physician!!" Zhao Wen yelled.

The officials behind were all in a mess and ran over one after another. The Huangmen screamed and ran to look for the imperial physician order.

"That's too late."

Seeing them busy, Lu Zhi shook his head, said, and slowly closed his eyes.

"Mr. Situ!!!!!!"
