Xuande

Chapter 192
At the celebration banquet for the victory of the Battle of the Yellow Turban, Liu Bei and many generals competed for wine, knocking down a large number of people while still standing, and thus won the admiration of a large number of generals, Sun Jian is one of them.

After that, Sun Jian took the initiative to visit Liu Bei several times and presented Liu Bei with good horses, good bows and good knives.

Knowing what Sun Jian meant, Liu Bei accepted these weapons and became friends with Sun Jian.

It is actually very easy to explain why Sun Jian wanted to curry favor with Liu Bei, mainly because of the advice given to him by Zhu Jun, who promoted and flattered him.

Zhu Jun was from Kuaiji County, and Sun Jian was from Wu County. Although they were not from the same county, the differences between the Jiangdong counties were not as great as those in the Central Plains, and the Luoyang court regarded the Jiangdong counties more as a whole. Yangzhou is more like a political term than the same concept.

A large river blocked many things, and even Lujiang County and Shouchun County in the north of the Jiangbei belonged to Yangzhou together with Jiangdong, but they were also regarded as a part of the Central Plains.

It is actually quite rare for Zhu Jun to enter the imperial court as a Jiangdong native. These days, the Jiangdong gentry are often looked down upon by the Central Plains gentry, thinking they are bumpkins, not to mention that Zhu Jun is from a poor family in Jiangdong, which is even more unpopular.

He started his career mainly by military exploits, and he was obviously not a very energetic person in the imperial court dominated by the Modern Literature School.

This time to quell the battle of the Yellow Turban, Zhu Jun had to be granted the title of General You and Marquis of Qiantang. There is still a big difference between Lu Zhi.

This is also one of the deep-seated reasons why Zhu Jun felt uncomfortable when the folk songs were sung.

So I suggest that we should take the initiative and not react passively. We should take the initiative to send a message to Huangfusong or Zhu Jun to convey our intentions. Even if we can't get a good result, we should let them know that we have no intention of confronting them. "

For example, Liu Bei and Yuan Shao have a good relationship. Liu Bei took Sun Jian to the banquet hosted by Yuan Shao, and introduced Sun Jian's achievements in the Wancheng battle at the banquet. In order to save face, they all praised Sun Jian's bravery.

Fuqian, Ma Rixun, Cai Yong and others all agreed with Liu Bei's views.

Some people also suggested that some votes and political resources are needed to attract Zhu Jun and his Jiangdong samurai group, but the political resources of the ancient literature school are not as rich as the modern literature school, and now they have to be distributed to them. But what to do?
Regarding this point, Yuan Kai was surprisingly open-minded.

They tried to attack the teacher, isolate the teacher, and cause discord between us and other officials who are good at using troops in the DPRK. Overwhelm us.

"This is obviously something that the Jinwen School can do. They want to praise and kill the teacher, make the teacher a target of public criticism, and become unpopular in the army, thereby shaking our status and prestige in the army. They are aiming at Our military power, this kind of behavior is very bad.

Liu Bei did this only because he considered that Sun Jian, the Jiangdong tiger, might be of some help to his future. At that time, he didn't think of today's step, but he just did it conveniently, but it laid the foundation for today's things.

After Luoyang folk songs were sung throughout the city, Liu Bei realized that this was a war launched by the Modern Literature School, and the horn of war sounded.

Sun Jian felt that he had done a great job and risked his life to fight in person, but after the battle he only received such a reward, and he was quite unhappy.

After hearing this, Sun Jian thanked Zhu Jun for his advice, so he took the initiative to visit Liu Bei and try to get close to him.

Regarding military exploits and warriors, the Ancient Literature School did not have a wide network of contacts, mainly relying on Lu Zhi and Liu Bei, as well as their military connections.

At this time, Zhu Jun, who lacked resources, showed him a clear way.

Afterwards, when Liu Bei was looking for errands for his subordinates, he helped Sun Jian and found a well-organized position for Sun Jian with Chen Qi, the infantry captain, so that Sun Jian could stay in Luoyang justifiably.

"Xuande, what can you do?"

If Zhu Jun can't control his own destiny, how can he help his little brother Sun Jian in Jiangdong find a good job?
Sun Jian joined Zhu Jun's team when Zhu Jun attacked the Nanyang Yellow Turban Army. In order to defeat the Yellow Turban Army, he shed his blood and led Jiangdong's soldiers to fight against Wancheng. He made great contributions.

All of this is not what he is good at. He watched the big guy transform from a scholar to a politician. Apart from sadness, he was still sad.

However, after the war, Sun Jian only got the post of Sima in another department in terms of rewards for his meritorious deeds.

Then nod.

But just as the relationship between the Literature School and the Liangzhou people and the warriors in other regions is not good, the Ancient Literature School is not very friendly to the pure warriors, but Lu Zhi, a great Confucian, and Liu Bei, a small Confucian, happen to know how to use soldiers.

After thinking for a moment, Zheng Xuan habitually looked at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei saluted.

What can Zheng Xuan think?

"Although Liu Xuande is young and inexperienced, but because of his youth, he suddenly gained momentum. It is the time when he needs someone to help him and expand his power. To help him at this time does not require too high a status or too much credit. As long as he If you want, you can.

Zheng Xuan was silent for a moment, then turned his expectant eyes to Liu Bei.

This view put forward by Liu Bei has been widely recognized by the school of thought.

Yuan Wei's words played a very important role in the process of the entire meeting.

As long as Zheng Xuan nodded, everyone could let go and go about their business.

At the high-level meeting, Liu Bei, who represented Lu Zhi at the meeting, did not say anything at first, but Zheng Xuan asked Liu Bei when a group of bigwigs discussed and discussed, and Liu Bei gave his answer. the opinion of.

So in this matter, they are really more passive.

Especially when Lu Zhi is not present.

The teacher is the only state shepherd in the world. This is the moment when the world is paying attention. Whenever there are any bad rumors, the teacher will be the first to bear the brunt, and the achievements of Jizhou Mu during his tenure are an important reliance for the teacher to return to Luoyang as the Sangong. There can be no loss.

"I don't dare to say a good way, but I have a lot of contacts with Sun Jian, a subordinate of the Marquis of Qiantang. Maybe I can meet Marquis of Qiantang through him and find out how the Marquis of Qiantang speaks."

Sun Jian was so overwhelmed by the praise, he was very happy.

After he took the initiative to meet twice, Liu Bei pulled him to sit beside him drinking, eating at the same table, singing and dancing together, and invited him to various banquets, bringing him to meet many people.

A group of Wendou school bosses are really not as good at these things as Lu Zhi and Liu Bei's master and apprentice. Now that Lu Zhi is away, the only one who can exert strength is Liu Bei, who is also very good at fighting.

This position is very clear, and there is no official establishment. It is an expedient measure adopted to appease the meritorious personnel. It is quite similar to the General Manager of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Qing Dynasty. It is a kind of Luoyang Central Army’s own, but not entirely his own. human feeling.

After Zheng Xuan nodded, the Ancient Literature School decided to contact Zhu Jun.

Then they also came to a point of view similar to that of the Jinwen School, that is, Zhu Jun, who is from Jiangdong, is more worthy of wooing than Huangfusong, who is from Liangzhou.

He thought that this road would not be easy, and he had to meet Liu Bei at least several times, but he never thought that Liu Bei was very close to him. The first time he came to see him, Liu Bei went out to greet him personally, and was very kind to him, making him Feeling quite flattered.

"Then Xuande, if Zigan is not here, I will depend a lot on you for this matter."

Moreover, he is young and has little qualifications now. In another ten or twenty years, he will be an indispensable and important figure in the court. I heard that everyone who has good friends with him will be in the family biography "Zuoshi Chunqiu" of the Liu family in Zhuo County, Zhuo County. You have been promised that your son will become his disciple. For the sake of the family, you should also get close to him. There are not many good opportunities like this. "

"Wouldn't it be the worst situation for me if Yang Shi and Zhu Jun were to join forces? When things happen, we should look at the long-term benefits. You should see the short-term benefits and long-term benefits more thoroughly than an old man like me." Some, the ancient literature school has finally come to this day, do you want to go back to the past?"

After Lu Zhi left, although Liu Bei's right to speak in the ancient literature school could not be compared with Lu Zhi's, but out of respect for Lu Zhi and Liu Bei's own contributions, the leadership would never ignore what he said.

As a soldier, Liu Bei immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and felt the thrill of war.

Then came the questioning of the leader, Zheng Xuan.

"As long as you want, I dare not ask for your ears."

Liu Bei salutes again.
