Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 369
Xu Ji's words were almost like shouting. He was very emotional. After all, he was denied by his father. It was understandable that he felt depressed. What he shouted was because he was proud of it. He wanted to let the slaves opposite him know how powerful he was and prove his own tools and analytical skills.

But his words did not impress Xu Pan at all, and made the loyal servant feel disappointed. He shook his head and said: "Master, do you still think that you have promoted the alliance of the three families and forced Chen Zhi? Do you think that you have been planning for a long time and took advantage of it?" Do you want the Zhang family and the Xun family to work for you?"

Xu Ji was stunned when he heard this, and then his expression changed.

Xu Pan sighed and said: "The Zhang family dealt with Chen Zhi because of private and public grudges. When Zhang Ying's son Zhang Yang was in Pengcheng, he had a conflict with the Chen family. He harbored a grudge and spoke about Chen Zhi's affairs. This is a private grudge. , and the previous generations of the Zhang family controlled the government. Although it declined, they still gained substantial benefits during Xuanwu's Northern Expedition. The Zhang family had always had a piece of the Zhang family's pie in the horse administration in the border areas. Now that northern Xinjiang is in war, the newly appointed imperial servant Chen Yongna After receiving the advice of Jinyang Liu Kun, he had ideas about Ma Zheng, which threatened the interests of the Zhang family, so Zhang Yingcai became an enemy of Chen Yong and wanted to use Chen Zhi as a breakthrough to attack Chen Yong."

Xu Ji's face was gloomy. He knew a lot about these things, but he still felt that it was he and Wang Bu who suggested the joint move.

Xu Pan looked at his young master's expression and knew what he was thinking, and said: "Master, do you know that before you happened to meet Wang Bu, this man had been walking in various academies, and Qi Zhi of Zuoyue Academy once went to Chen Zhi I want to ask for advice on music and music, in order to find faults, but Wang Bu is instigating me behind the scenes, and there are many other trivial matters, if the young master is willing, I can tell you all."

Xu Ji's face suddenly turned ugly. He couldn't tell that Wang Bu had already wanted to connect with him. He met Wang Bu and then encouraged the other party. The other party still looked like he was reluctant and wanted to go back and think about it. It's just a look for yourself, it's a scheming way to make yourself feel that you are in charge of everything, so that you can do things willingly.

"I was taken advantage of by Wang Bu!?"

In annoyance, Xu Ji's eyes flashed coldly.

Xu Pan continued: "As for the Xun family, it was based on the consideration of the academy. Initially, Zuoyue Academy had a relationship with Taiyue Department. Later, the doctor of the Xun family in Taichang Mansion had a conflict with Chen Zhi, and the conflict between the two parties intensified. However, the Xun family did not pay much attention to personal grudges, and only punished them based on the instinct of the family. It was not until after the criticism meeting that the knowledgeable people of the Xun family saw the power of the so-called literary criticism and realized that the Taile Department was afraid that there would be some Change, and then I decided to suppress Chen Zhi, and just happened to meet you, young master, so I half-heartedly established the alliance between the three families."

"So, the Xun family had already taken action against Chen Zhi before this?"

Xu Ji gritted his teeth, clenched his fists with both hands, and trembled slightly, feeling full of being used.I am also complacent and unaware of my irritation, and I also feel a sense of powerlessness.

"Three families like this get together, but Chen Zhi can't help but make him prosperous. Am I really inferior to Chen Zhi? Impossible. In terms of family background, how can I be inferior to him?"

Thinking of this, Xu Ji immediately emphasized: "Even if those two families and I each have what we need, I am a person who knows how to advance and retreat. The Huns are so powerful, how can I easily offend them? If because of Chen Zhi's relationship, I will , then he is a sinner of the world! If it were me, I would never provoke the Huns!"

"If you still have such thoughts, it means that you can't compare with Chen Taile!" This time, Xu Pan didn't defend himself at all, sighed, looked at Xu Pi, and ordered: "You just did the same On the side, you also know the instructions of the Marquis, so you are waiting for me. In the future, the young master will not slack off at all when he is away!"

"Yes, I understand." Xu Pi kept smiling bitterly at the side, and then nodded in agreement.

"What do you mean?" Xu Ji heard a hint of something wrong in his words.

Xu Pan looked at him, shook his head and said: "The Marquis knows that you are eager to make meritorious service and want to become an official again, so I found an official position for you in Jiangzuo. The authority is not small and the grade is not low. It should satisfy you."

"What? What did you say?" Xu Ji was stunned, thinking that he heard wrongly, "You mean, my lord asked me to go to Jiangzuo and serve as an official in another place? How is this possible? How can this be possible!" Later, he said He roared, veins showing on his face.

This is not because Xu Ji lost his temper, but because Xu Pan's statement was too shocking.

It should be a smooth path for the son of a prince to become an official and enter politics. As mentioned earlier, regardless of meritorious service or aristocratic family, the first choice for his son to become an official is the capital city or central hub, so that he can be promoted quickly. Many people even feel ashamed to go to local places to become substantive officials. Now his father actually asked him to become a local official!Isn't this earth-shattering news?

"Even if I am eager to become an official again, I can't go somewhere! Just because of Chen Zhi, I have to avoid going somewhere? How unreasonable! I want to see the Lord, and I want to argue with him!"

Xu Ji looked like he was crazy, and he raised his feet and was about to rush out, but Xu Pan waved his hand, and two warriors who had been waiting outside came over and restrained Xu Ji.

"Master, you should study at home first. The Marquis is doing this for your own good, not just to let you avoid Tai Leling." Xu Pan said and winked at Xu Pi, who understood and smiled bitterly. He stepped forward to comfort his master.

"Xu Pi, you rip-off, get out of here! Xu Pan, you old dog! You lied to me and tried to prevent me from meeting the adults. You wait! You wait! I want you to look good. !”

In the rage, Xu Ji couldn't care about anything else, and spouted many obscene words from his mouth.

Xu Pan shook his head and just asked him to recuperate at home. Then he gave instructions in a circle. Looking at Xu Ji who was arguing, he sighed and said, "Master, you will know the painstaking efforts of the Marquis in the future." After finishing speaking, he bowed respectfully and turned to leave.

"Old dog! Old guy! Come back! Come back!" Xu Ji struggled to rush forward, but although he had practiced martial arts, he had been idle for many years. He was no match for a samurai, and it was difficult to break free. Kuai's energy was almost exhausted, and he could only watch Xu Pan walking toward the door, and couldn't help but howl!

"The old dog is back! I want to see the adults! I want to see my father!" In his shouts, the door of Xu Mansion slowly closed. In the crack of the door, Xu Ji's twisted face could be seen, unwilling and angry. And... fear!
Boom!
The door closed and Xu Ji's heart sank.

………………

"Really? He doesn't even have such a small amount of self-restraint, and he even insults you?"

After a moment of burning incense, after listening to Xu Pan's report, Pingyang Marquis Xu Ci frowned, with a look of disappointment on his face.

"I also know his temper. He won't give up easily. I'm afraid that he won't be able to offend Chen Zhi in the future, and he will vent his anger on you and make you feel wronged."

"Old slaves are all here for Master Hou's scheme, and a little grievance is nothing at all."

"You can't say that," Xu Ci shook his head, "I will explain it clearly to the eldest son, and let him suppress Xu Ji in the future. This kid is too ignorant and self-righteous. This time, let me see Chen Zhi's matter. Come out, if he stays in the capital, something will happen sooner or later. It is better to put him somewhere to practice and practice, which can be regarded as avoiding disaster. After all, Luoyang has changed too much recently, and there may be major changes in a few years. It will be even more dangerous for him to stay. .”

Xu Pan remained silent beside him.

"He still thinks he has a plan," Xu Ci looked at Xu Pan again, "He can't see the obvious things. The Huns came here this time because they couldn't withstand a big battle. With the strength of one continent, no, Bingzhou has not yet been pacified by the Xiongnu. With less than a state of land, they faced the imperial army. They were able to win a battle. They relied on the right time and location, and there were constraints in the court. They were lucky enough to win. They also suffered a lot of damage, and Tuo Tuo also suffered a lot of damage. Ba Xianbei attacked in a surprise attack, Liu Yuanxin died, the dragons were leaderless, and the clan was about to disperse. How could they use weapons rashly, otherwise they would send envoys if the Hu people were acting as a faction? The court also felt that the Xiongnu had nothing to worry about. There were dry bones in the tombs, so they did not want to spend any more money. Money and food, if you want to divide and disintegrate, and eliminate the threat without any blood, it is ridiculous that my son thinks that the big man is afraid of the Huns, he is too young."

Suddenly, he calmed down his expression.

"It's just that once the Xiongnu comes, it's really hard to predict what will happen next," he suddenly smiled and said, "Well, the old man from the Zhuge family has been studying behind closed doors for a long time, so it's time to go over and express condolences to him, just in time to ask his opinion. "

………………

On the other side, the news of the capture of the Huns envoy also reached the Baibang Pavilion. The Dian Ke Ling was originally waiting for the Huns envoy to return and arranged a dinner, singing and dancing for them, but in the end, the Huns sent him to see the court. The whole person was stunned by the news about the captain, and then he rushed towards Honglu Temple without thinking about anything else!

"Da Honglu! Something bad has happened!"

Dahonglu Zhao Minben was tasting tea.

There were several people sitting in front of him, including Honglu's subordinate officials and Ji Fa, the Mingtang Order of Taichang Mansion. They were chatting and laughing, and seemed to be talking about something interesting.

Seeing Dian Ke Ling's look, he immediately stopped talking. Zhao Min even frowned, guessing something.

"What? But something happened to the Huns?"

"Exactly!" Dian Ke Ling looked at the people in the hall and hesitated. He wondered if there would be any problems if he explained the matter here. It would be bad if it might shake people's hearts.

Zhao Min waved his hand and ordered: "There is nothing to be taboo about. Just explain the matter clearly."

"No, this is what happened..." Dianke Ling did not dare to delay. After receiving the order, he told the news he received in detail, which was exactly what happened in Taile Department.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Zhao Min's face changed continuously, and finally he frowned and complained: "What's going on with Chen Zhi? I just praised him for his ability to do things. He arranged the sacrifices and the reception of envoys from various countries in an orderly manner. , and in the blink of an eye something like this happened to me."

He shook his head helplessly and said: "Go, call Chen Zhi. I have to talk to him properly. I will also tell Deng Taichang that Chen Zhi has caused such a big disaster. This matter must be let go." He came to calm down. In the next few months, Chen Zhi will be working as an errand at Honglu Temple, and he, Deng Meng, can no longer use excuses such as literary criticism to force people back from me."

"No! I will definitely reprimand him..." Dian Ke Ling said angrily, and suddenly felt something was wrong. After tasting Zhao Min's words, he felt... something was wrong.
