Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 148 Big Boss Meeting
Zhang Yong held Liu He's hand tightly and nodded solemnly, "I understand!"

Just this one sentence contains immense determination.

Cui Jun was also very pleased watching from the side. It was really a blessing to be able to work with such a person.

"Haha, okay, lord, let's get back to business."

"What the military advisor said is right. With this arrangement, the power of the combination of kindness and power will no longer be a problem. Then the next step is kindness."

Zhang Yong frowned and said, "Brother, I just can't think of a way to quickly settle these seven or eight thousand people. Is there any good way?"

Liu He smiled mysteriously: "If we only focus on our Langdiao County, it will naturally be impossible to do it."

Zhang Yong and Cui Jun understood immediately after hearing this.

"My Lord/Brother, are you saying that we should relocate them to the surrounding counties?"

Liu He nodded.

Zhang Yong slapped his thigh fiercely and said, "Yes, the people's well-being is not just our responsibility. The surrounding counties should also contribute. When the time comes, we will take those thousands of people north to Yu County and help them settle down in Yu County."

Cui Jun suddenly laughed and said, "Haha, the fourth general has a good idea, but as far as I know, the Magistrate Geng of Yu County is also a wine and meat magistrate who doesn't care about the lives of the people. If he refuses to accept it, what should we do?"

Zhang Yong was stunned, as if he had not expected this, but after all, he had an IQ of 83, so he reacted quickly.

"If he is so ignorant, that's fine. The military preparations of these counties are all in disrepair. With the powerful momentum of the Taiping Army, these counties will certainly ask the county governor for help. At that time, we will divide our troops into two groups. One group will pretend to be the Taiping Army attacking the city, and the other group will pretend to be the reinforcements sent by the county governor. We will open the city gates and then cooperate with each other to seize their city and bring down those incompetent people. In this way, we can not only settle these seven or eight thousand Taiping Army, but also appease the people of Yu County and develop production, killing two birds with one stone!"

"Haha, it seems that after the lord's teachings, the four generals are now both strategic and decisive. Very good, very good!"

Liu He also looked at Zhang Yong with satisfaction, which made Zhang Yong feel a little embarrassed.

The poor magistrate of Yu County had no idea that he, who was currently enjoying a peaceful and prosperous life, had been plotted against by people from the neighboring county.

This calm before the storm is not only the case in Ji and Bing states, but also in all parts of the Han Dynasty. However, not many people are aware of the huge crisis hidden in it...

Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty, is still unparalleled in the world in terms of prosperity even today.

It is now evening, the streets are bustling with people, restaurants have started to light up, and vendors are busy selling their last bit of goods before going home for dinner. Under the last rays of the setting sun, a scene that seems like a prosperous age is reflected.

At this time, a carriage was driving on the street and soon stopped at the door of a stately mansion.

A tall, resolute-looking old man walked out of the carriage, looked at the plaque "Cui Mansion" at the door, and walked straight inside under the guidance of the doorman with an apologetic smile.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard a voice saying "Forgive me".

"Oh my, my dear brother Zigan has arrived. I was not able to come to greet you. Please forgive me, please forgive me!"

I saw an old man with a thin figure and three long beard walking towards me quickly, with a happy smile on his face.

"Haha, Brother Wei Kao, I read a few articles written by your ancestor Tingbo Gong today, and I didn't understand some of them. That's why I came to visit you at night. I'm sorry to bother you. I hope you won't blame me."

The old man who came in bowed and said.

The thin old man didn't say anything polite. He walked over, took the tall old man's hand, and walked into the house.

"My dear brother, you have come at the perfect time. I have been reading some of the great works of my respected teacher, Mr. Ji Chang, these days. There are some parts that I just cannot understand. You and I can discuss them."

After saying that, he turned to an attendant and said, "Tell the eldest son that Lord Lu is here. He has been talking about wanting to learn from Lord Lu. Ask him to come quickly." "Yes!"

The attendant bowed and retreated.

The tall old man was delighted when he heard this: "Brother, your two sons are both first-rate in both literary and military skills. They are much better than my useless sons."

The two came to a hall and sat opposite each other.

The thin old man did not show any joy at all after hearing this, but instead showed resentment on his face.

The man called Lu Gong was puzzled.

"Why do you look unhappy, brother?"

The thin old man sighed and said, "Well, I'm not afraid of you making fun of me, my eldest son is quite good. Although he is a little dull, he is at least diligent and studious, and has a desire to make progress. The youngest son Jun is also smart and studious. He is quite talented in classics and swordsmanship, and I like him very much."

Lord Lu nodded slightly. His youngest son was very intelligent and could be considered top-notch among his peers from many aristocratic families.

The thin old man continued, "However, this boy is stubborn and has no ambition to make progress. He hangs out with the gangsters all day long, which really ruins the family's reputation!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Lu burst into laughter.

"Haha, brother, as the chief judge of the Han Dynasty, in charge of criminal law, can't you control your own children?"

It turned out that the thin old man was none other than Cui Jun's father, Cui Lie, who was the imperial judge.

And that tall old man was even more extraordinary. His surname was Lu and his name was Zhi. He was one of the great scholars of Confucian classics of his time. He was also the teacher of two great princes, Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan, who could not be ignored when people in later generations talked about the history of the Three Kingdoms.

Cui Lie was so ashamed when he heard his smile that he covered his face.

"Oh, my dear brother, please don't make fun of me. Although my hometown Anping County was designated as the seat of Anping State more than 20 years ago, we are all from the same hometown of Zhuo County. We have known each other for decades. I hope my dear brother can teach me."

Lu Zhi straightened his expression and said, "Brother, don't worry too much. I am young and energetic, and I am naughty for a while, but it's not a big deal. I think this boy is both civil and military, and he has great ambitions. His future achievements are limitless."

Upon hearing this, Cui Lie was not relieved but waved his hands repeatedly.

"Zi Gan doesn't know. If he was just fooling around like this, it would be fine, but he...ah..."

Lu Zhi now felt that things seemed complicated. It was obvious that Cui Jun had done something that he didn't know about, and it was obviously not a good thing.

"Why? Did he do something against the moral principles?"

Cui Lie sighed again, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. However, it might be because he had been holding this matter in his heart for too long and he really couldn't help but get it out.

"Alas, I dare not do anything to you, my dear brother. This inferior man sent me a letter a few days ago, saying that it was a major event concerning the country and asked me to report it to the court."

Hearing this, Lu Zhi's expression relaxed instead: "This is a good thing. My nephew cares about the country. Why don't we summon him to Luoyang as soon as possible? You and I can recommend him to Your Majesty and get him a job. Wouldn't that be great? If my useless sons could have such a loyal and filial heart, I'm afraid I would burn incense every day."

"If that's the case, then that's fine. However, you don't know what that rebellious son said in the letter! He actually said... said... ah... such rebellious words are really hard to bring out!"

Lu Zhi was getting anxious now: "What on earth is in the letter about? Why did you go to such lengths?"

Cui Lie then said, "That rebellious son said that the Jizhou Taiping Dao will soon rebel against the Han Dynasty, and asked me to report it to the court and arrest him as soon as possible!"

"What!" Lu Zhi's face turned pale!
