Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 432: The person you say is actually a prisoner [Please subscribe! 】

As soon as Tang Taigong said the words, everyone had different expressions, but most of the people present did not understand the meaning of the words. On the contrary, Wu Jie frowned, and the other two elders and venerables narrowed their eyes in unison, as if Something came to mind.

Next to him, Tuoba Yulu looked at the old people with great interest, and then looked back and forth between Chen Zhi and the old people, showing a playful smile.

Tang Taigong said slowly: "A few days ago, the Xiongnu just came and caused trouble in the county. Thanks to the prefect's miraculous calculations and the help of Tuoba warriors, the Xiongnu were defeated. I heard the junior mentioned it, It is said that even the arm of the Hun false king was cut off, which is really exciting. Thanks to the efforts of the two of you, the people of Daijun were saved from this disaster. It shows that the prefect loves his people like his own son."

"My grandpa looks up to me too much." Chen Zhi shook his head and did not want the high hat.

Tuoba Yulu also smiled and said: "Tang Gong, a certain family just happened to meet. Even without me, Chen Jun will have other arrangements. He is a talented person who has learned a lot and has strategies. As long as he can listen to him Yes, there must be nothing bad about it." This Xianbei man was modest and hinted at the same time.

Wu Jie, who was already a little sad for him, couldn't help but look sideways at this time, and said secretly in his heart: "This Tuoba Yulu is not simple. This sentence sounds self-effacing, but in fact it is also flattering Chen Zhi, and it is also vaguely warning him. The people present have allowed these family representatives to let down their guard and cooperate with Chen Zhi. This person has such scheming intentions. Maybe I really need to make friends with him. If I can get him to join the general, that will be another credit."

Youzhou naturally also has a lot of understanding of the Tuoba tribe of Xianbei. Such a force is entrenched in the border and borders itself. It is also an important tribe in Xianbei and has considerable influence on several other Xianbei tribes. Wang Junhe His subordinate staff are very concerned.

However, their focus is more on Tuoba Xianbei as a whole, and more on Tuoba Yilu, the leader, and his selfishness. As his nephew, Tuoba Yulu is more important. He was a general identified as Xianbei by Wang Jun's side, and his research and distraction were in different directions.

But seeing him today gave Wu Jie another perspective, and he had a plan in mind.

Not to mention what he thought, after hearing Chen Zhi's words, the Tang Taigong first shook his head and then said: "I said that the prefect loves the people, not only for this matter, but also because when the prefect is looking for his hometown, he has many questions. Due to the people's livelihood and people's strength, there are many places that need to employ people in Daijun. Our Tang family has not been very prosperous in recent years, and I am not afraid of it. But there are not many other things, but there are enough people. As long as the prefect says a word, our Tang family can It’s no big deal that the family contributes money and effort, so I can help the officials!”

Hua Luo, he turned to the person beside him and ordered: "Dian'er, please remember this matter, and report it to your family when you get back. Just say it was my decision!" "

"Yes, my grandson remembers." The person who replied to him was about 30 years old, with a refined look, a pair of sword eyebrows, and a face that was not handsome, but angular.

This person is none other than Tang Dian, the pillar of the third generation of the Tang family. He was once the captain of the county. However, due to a slight mistake, he was caught by Lu District and had a violent attack. Not only did he lose his official position, he also made the Tang family passive and suppressed. for three years.

Logically speaking, such a person can be regarded as a sinner to any family. Even if he is not held accountable afterwards, he will always be marginalized.

This was indeed the case at first, but after more than two years of accumulation, from a year ago, Tang Dian actually became a powerful figure in the Tang family again, and even became a strong contender for the next clan leader.

As soon as Tang Taigong said this, the whole hall fell silent, and then everyone couldn't help but start talking——

"The Tang family is more straightforward. The first two elders just took the opportunity of this contact to flatter and express goodwill. This one is better. This is a promise. Tsk tsk."

"Isn't that right? The meaning of this is very obvious. Money, goods, manpower and material resources are all willing to support the government. In fact, they are supporting the new governor and helping him achieve political achievements."

"Actually, it's not surprising. The Tang family has been suppressed so hard in the past three years that they have long had lingering fears. When Governor Lu was still there, they had already shown signs of surrendering and started to cater to Lu District in many aspects. But now It’s just that he changed from Governor Lu to Governor Chen.”

"Speaking of which, on such an occasion, the boss of the Tang family did not come, but Mr. Tang brought Tang Dian with him. Does this indicate that this person will be the talkative person of the Tang family in the future?"

"The head of the Tang family seems to be in charge of the basic main residence of the Tang family, but Tang Dian's coming is indeed a hint."

……

Everyone's discussion reached Wu Jie's ears. He smiled on the outside, but became increasingly wary mentally.

Could it be that a simple lunch gave Chen Zhi an opportunity to integrate the Daijun family?

This possible fact made Wu Jie understand the seriousness of the problem. He suddenly realized that although his arrival was humiliating, it was not meaningless.

"Once Chen Zhi integrates Dai County, he will be able to advance and attack and retreat and defend, which is particularly detrimental to the general's plan. Now the general relies on his connections with the border tribes and the help of several ministers in the DPRK. Only in this way can he take root deeply in the two states. The land of the two states is the foundation of the general. He can only absorb it step by step. This generation of counties is about to be completely integrated into the two states system. How can he be allowed to occupy it here? Magpie's nest? Even if you don't surrender and subdue him, you can't let him act like this!" Despite thinking about this, Wu Jie still smiled on the surface, and nodded slightly along with the discussions of the people around him, as if he was very appreciative. Tang Taigong's actions.

Chen Zhi, on the other hand, felt a move in his heart when he heard this, and then shook his head inwardly.

"This is what worries me the most. People from these aristocratic families control the population and material resources. They are willing to help, but they cannot give up the population, let alone provide help for nothing. All the efforts are expected to be rewarded. After paying gold and silver, what you hope to get is not money, but political and political rights, privileges and acquiescence."

Looking at the room full of well-dressed people, Chen Zhi did not think that this group of people could determine Dai Jun's safety.

"The so-called manpower is not given away, but more like lent. The person remains attached and has no will of his own. According to the government's legal system, as long as he opens his mouth and orders, the borrowed people can be transferred. Maybe these people After learning skills and knowledge, they turned around and were asked to go back by the Tang family to train talents for them. However, as long as some people were sent here, those who did not have family burdens could take this opportunity to win over them. But in this era, education There are too few people, and without kindness and reputation, the name cannot be justified. After all, we cannot rest assured. The dispute between name and reality has been throughout the long history!"

Despite all the shortcomings, since the other party showed good intentions and good intentions, Chen Zhi could not push it out in public, not to mention that the people who were temporarily seconded could still engage in low-skilled work. There were always ways to arrange it, and they could try it out. , let’s see what the family’s bottom line is. If the bottom line is very low, maybe we can find a way of peaceful coexistence and cooperation.

"However, this kind of cooperation that violates the other party's bottom line has great hidden dangers. A slight external intervention may lead to betrayal," Chen Zhi thought in his heart, but on the surface he smiled and thanked Tang Taigong for his promise, and then glanced at the people around him. Wu Jie, with a smile on his face, said, "Compromising and violating the bottom line, and reluctantly coexisting, are ultimately not as safe as win-win cooperation. However, I want to increase my power as soon as possible, which conflicts with the nature of the family, unless it is my own blood family." , vassal family, otherwise it would be impossible to win-win with other families, so breaking the situation and shaping a new situation will make it more feasible."

Chen Zhi was thinking, and Tang Taigong was also thinking. The other two elders were also thinking about it, and Wu Jie had a small calculation, and even Tuoba Yulu had various thoughts from this conversation. .

However, on the surface, everyone was still chatting enthusiastically, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious and harmonious.

This scene not only caught the eyes of many scholars, but was also discovered by the servants who followed them. To these servants, Chen Zhi and others surrounded by everyone were undoubtedly big shots——

The corner of the hall is where the servants gather. The book boy Chen Wu and several servants in green clothes are present. There are also two Xianbei people standing here.

After all, the entire first and third floors were entertained, and people from aristocratic families are very particular about ostentation. Even those whose families are in decline, have to grit their teeth and maintain an air of dignity. When going out to a banquet, bringing servants and bookboys, It is also a matter of course.

However, most of their servants have been arranged to other places. Anyone who can enter this hall is a servant of an important person, and Chen Wu is naturally among them.

Soon, they noticed that when these big shots were talking, they all centered around Chen Zhilai.

"The Grand Dukes, the general's cronies, and the Xianbei generals who could even defeat the Huns are all so polite to the Western Governor."

"Incredible, incredible! This prefect's background is really impressive."

"Not only is his background awesome, but what's really scary is his talent!"

"Yes, these two brothers must know that. They followed General Tuoba and followed Governor Chen's plan to defeat the Huns!"

As they talked, the conversation of several servants shifted to the two Xianbei people, but the latter just smiled and did not answer.

Most of the servants were good at observing people's words. Seeing that the two didn't want to say more, they decisively changed the topic and put the words on Chen Wu.

These people all know that Chen Wu is Chen Zhi's book boy, and he is very valued by Chen Zhi. They were also faintly complimenting Chen Wu just now.

Chen Wu is young, but he has followed Chen Zhi for more than a year. He has already experienced these things, so he is not forgetful, but he is still in a good mood, especially when he looks at the elders who are much older and more dignified than Peng Cheng. , chatting and laughing beside Chen Zhi, and felt extremely emotional in his heart, feeling like he was in another world.
