Chapter 307

Grabbing a thin firewood branch, the little guy staggered and approached the charcoal basin.

"Little bell, don't play with fire! Children who play with fire will wet the bed at night." Lu Bu smiled and shook his head, pulling his daughter back to his side.

"Have you ever heard of the Zhang family, General?" Xi Ce said softly, and the dancing flames crackled in his eyes.

Lu Buhu, who was teasing his daughter with his fingers, asked, "Is it the Zhang family in Taiyuan?"

Xi Ce nodded, and slowly said: "The day Xiao Lingdang turned one year old, Zhang Feng came to me and said he wanted to buy two thousand war horses."

"Why does the Zhang family want so many horses?" Lu Bu frowned slightly. Two thousand horses were enough to form an elite cavalry battalion.

It is not uncommon for a wealthy family to recruit servants with guards to settle down in the house.But I have never heard of it, which family will equip themselves with a cavalry battalion, this is obviously trying to make trouble!

"General, these war horses are not what the Zhang family wanted, but our governor of Bingzhou. He didn't know where he heard the news, but he couldn't bear the face to beg, so he instigated the Zhang family to come and find out."

After Zhang Feng left Wuyuan, Xi Ce sent someone to investigate secretly, and he got a reply not long after. The person standing behind Zhang's family was none other than Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou.

In the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty, except for the Sili to which Luoyang belongs, the other twelve prefectures all have governors.

At the beginning, the governor's duty was only to patrol the counties, and he was not allowed to interfere with local government affairs, and to pick up lawbreakers with six edicts.

The so-called six edicts are: first, to strengthen the right of the clan, to overrun the land and houses, to bully the weak by the strong, and to oppress the few by the crowd; Thirdly, the two thousand stones are not sympathetic to the prison, the wind will kill people, the anger will be punished, the joy will be rewarded, the troubles will be violent, the Li Yuan will be stripped, the people will be sick, and the landslide will happen. The stone was cracked, and Xiang Xiang falsely said; the fourth, the selection of the two thousand stones was not fair, and Gou's love was hidden from the sage; Comparing against public order, A Fu is powerful and powerful, and the general bribery also cuts off the official orders.

The position of governor is under the county guard and captain, and his salary is only [-] shi. Although his rank is low, he can correct and impeach officials who are higher than himself.Moreover, the excerpts of the governor's memorials do not need to be checked by officials appointed by the Sangong, but can be presented directly to the emperor.

Because of this, county guards and county magistrates from all over the country were afraid of it and scrambled to curry favor with each other. Some local officials even released their seals and abandoned their posts because they offended the governor.

In recent decades, the governor's power has been continuously strengthened, and his salary has also been raised to the same two thousand shi as the county guard.

During the two years of Ding Yuan's tenure in Bingzhou, he has attracted more than half of the noble families, which is even worse than the previous Zhang Yi.

"I have a very strong premonition that there will only be one person between me and Ding Yuan in the future." After hearing the joke, Lu Bu's eyebrows became even more serious.

Ding Yuan wanted to be a frontier official in Bingzhou, and sooner or later he would reach out to the barracks.And Lu Bu, after being reborn in Nanyang, set a goal to make no one in Bingzhou surpass him.

Neither of them backed down, and there was bound to be a war to decide who was the master of the state.

"Then who does the general think will be left behind?" Xie Ce touched his chin, and gave him a playful look.

"Of course it's me."

Lu Bu, who slapped his daughter, spoke calmly, without the slightest hesitation, nor did he pretend to be confident.

Xie Ce was stunned for a moment, and even Guo Jia looked over, his fox eyes narrowed slightly.

The reckless man has a heroic spirit.

It's not obvious, but it does exist.

In the season of the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, Xi Ce's face showed a smile of spring breeze blowing willows.

The seed finally germinated.

County Sheriff's Office.

Yan Xin, governor of Wuyuan County, knelt and sat in front of the desk, handling the local government affairs for the past two days with his pen and ink in hand.

Judging from his wrinkled eyebrows, it is obvious that he has encountered a lot of troublesome things.

Ever since the Qiang people moved here, they have been overwhelmed with major and minor matters, and they have been extremely busy inside and out.

It is a good thing for the Qiang people to govern Qiang, but the Qiang people are not familiar with Han law, and there are a small number of Han people living in the county, so often some trivial matters can cause disturbances in the city.

Fortunately, there was Chang Shi Fengji to mediate, which made the conflicts calm down again and again.

Not only that, the Southern Huns in Shuofang County adjacent to the east of Wuyuan have frequently disturbed and caused troubles in recent days.It was all because the envoys of the Huns died at the Eastern Qiang Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony. The Zuoxian King Xubu Guduhou who learned of this incident naturally couldn't swallow this breath, and wanted to retaliate against the Eastern Qiang people.

In addition, Wuyuan County's harvest this year is not good.Although the people will not starve to death, they are basically in a state of starvation, which makes him, the county guard, very distressed.

"Fourth brother, are you still busy?"

Outside the hall, Lu Bu carried Xiao Lingqi across the threshold and into the hall.

Seeing Lu Bu coming to visit, Yan Xin breathed a sigh of relief, temporarily put aside the affairs in hand, looked at Lu Bu and began to tease: "Why, my little sister is willing to let you out?"

If it is said who Lu Bu listens to the most, Yan Wei must be the first, and the drama is the second.Now, one and a half year old Lu Qiling may have to be added.

It's an interesting story that the majestic Saibei flying general was eaten to death by three powerless people.

"Little Bell, I haven't seen you for a while, and I've grown a lot taller! Come, let my uncle hug you." Yan Xin stretched out his hand, and the little guy obviously recognized Yan Xin, so he opened his little hand obediently, letting Yan Xin hold him She hugged her from Dad's arms.

"Fourth brother, seeing your sad face, did you encounter any troublesome things?" After sitting down, Lu Bu asked.

Mentioning this, Yan Xin sighed, since he was a family, he didn't need to hide Lv Bu, and said aloud: "It's not because of those Huns, they have been provoking quarrels on the border of the county for the past two months. There are quite a few Qiang people and Han people."

Yan Xin endured this. After all, it was hard to drive away the Xianbei people. What Wuyuan needs now is peace and tranquility, not restarting the war.

Lu Bu was able to return to Bingzhou because of the turmoil in the Xiongnu, and the imperial court sent him back to sit in charge.

"Fourth brother, I know you don't want to start a war between the Han and the Hungarian, but there are some things that cannot be tolerated."

People who are good are bullied by others, and horses who are good are ridden by others.

The more connivance, it will only make the Huns push forward.

More than a hundred years ago, the Huns split, and some of them moved thousands of miles south to seek refuge with the great Han for protection.At that time, the imperial court was generous and directly lent Shuofang County to them for shelter, and provided them with food and grass materials every year to support them.

But now, these Huns really regard Shuofang County as their own three-acre land.

"I'll go to Shuofang County in a few days, not to mention that I can quell the civil strife, but at least let them know whose territory it is."

If you don't like living here, just pack up and get out!
