Lu Dynasty

Chapter 417 Chen Qun
In fact, Chen Qun was from Xuchang, Yingchuan County, so Cheng Yu was so confident in inviting him to Cao!Under the leadership of Cheng Yu, Cao came to Chen Qun's mansion.When they arrived at the Chen Mansion, Cao handed over the famous assassin. The concierge saw that the Prime Minister had come to visit, and hurried to report. Then the Chen Mansion was in a state of chaos, and then the middle door opened wide. Chen Qun helped the elderly Chen Ji to come to the door to welcome Cao. .Chen Ji, who was in his seventies and eighties, saluted Cao tremblingly: "I don't know that Prime Minister Cao is here, and I am disappointed to welcome you. Please don't blame the Prime Minister!"

Cao knew that this was Chen Ji being polite to him.Cao laughed and said, "Master Chen, Mr. Cao is taking the liberty to visit today, so I should invite Mrs. Chen Haihan!"

"Prime Minister Cao must have something important to do here, please serve tea in the room!" Seeing Cao being so polite, Chen Ji knew that he must have something to do here, but Chen Ji knew Cao's temperament, so he didn't argue with him, and invited Go into the mansion to talk.Chen Ji greeted Cao, and Chen Qun naturally wanted to greet Cheng Yu.

Everyone came to the hall to sit down, and their own servants brought tea.Before Cao and Chen Ji had time to speak, Cheng Yu said, "Brother Yuan Fang, what is the age of your parent, Wen?"

When Cheng Yu asked such a question, Chen Ji was dumbfounded!Usually the people who ask this question are matchmakers who want to tell each other about their marriage, so Chen Ji thought about it. Could it be that Cao wants to marry him?Chen Ji smiled and said: "Xiaogou is already in his thirties this year, and his wife Xun is a young lady from the Xun family in Yingchuan. I don't know why Zhongde asked this question?"

As soon as Cao heard it, he knew that Chen Ji had misunderstood Cheng Yu's meaning. Cao laughed and said, "Master Chen, what Zhong De means is that your parent, Wen, is not too young. Why don't you let him come out to make contributions, so that he can win a seal in the future?" Wife Yinzi!" When Cao said this, Chen Ji immediately understood that Cao was trying to recruit Chen Qun.In Chen Ji's eyes, Cao recruited not only Chen Qun, but also the Yingchuan Chen family behind Chen Qun. He should study at home, practice calligraphy, and spend the rest of his life in peace!" Chen Ji, an old fox, knew that if he wanted Chen Qun's official career to go smoothly and be reused, Cao couldn't recruit Chen Qun so easily.As the saying goes, what is not available is good!If you don't see it, Liu Bei, who looks at the thatched cottage three times, holds Zhuge Liang in his hand for fear of losing it, and holds it in his mouth for fear of melting!
Cao laughed and said, "My lord Chen, I heard that Chang Wen once served as Liu Bei's assistant, and he is also proficient in the official system, so I want to ask him to become an official and find a more reasonable way out for the court!" Cao is not Liu Bei, he has no Three visits to thatched patience.He saw that Chen Ji started to take on Qiao, so he immediately threatened him.Liu Bei is Cao's enemy, as long as Cao asked Liu Xie to issue an edict that Liu Bei was rebellious, then Chen Qun would be rebellious.Even if it is a coercion, it was also a crime of beheading in the Han Dynasty.Because the handle of the knife is in Cao's hands!
Cheng Yu also said with a sinister smile: "Brother Yuanfang, your Chen family is in Yingchuan. I heard that some time ago, someone came to Xuchang to accuse your Chen family of plotting to commit crimes. Now you are trying to prevaricate Chen Qun's official career, which is a bit of a misunderstanding. , once it happens, it will be bad for you and me!"

Threats, naked threats.Chen Ji looked at these two masters and servants with ordinary faces and shook his head and said: "You two, I didn't say that my family Qun'er would not be allowed to be an official. It's just that my family's Qun'er is straightforward and easy to offend others. Take care, don't let me, a white-haired person, send a black-haired person!"

Cheng Yu said with a smile: "Brother Yuan Fang, why didn't you say earlier that with me, Cheng Yu, as long as Chang Wen didn't commit the felony of treason, no matter how serious the mistake he made, the lord can tolerate it. Duke Cao is the wise master of the world." , why can’t you tolerate the arguing ministers!” Cao nodded after hearing Cheng Yu’s words, he was still thinking about what the shopkeeper said.If I make a mistake, as straight as Tian Feng, he will point my nose and scold me.Cao now also wants to find someone who can point his nose and scold him for his mistakes!

"Mr. Cao, I have something to say to Mr. Cao. My Qun'er once said that he would never serve unless he finds out the Lord. So I can't force him. Why don't you talk to Mr. Cao yourself?" Chen Ji Knowing that if Chen Qun is not allowed to serve as an official in Cao, God knows what Cao will do.But letting Chen Qun and Cao leave like this doesn't reflect the value of Chen Qun.Chen Ji had a flash of inspiration, why not let Chen Qun chat with Cao, so that Cao can also know Chen Qun's talent.

Cao and Cheng Yu looked at each other. Cao knew that Chen Ji wanted to convince Chen Qun.Cheng Yu said: "Brother Yuanfang, since this is the case, why don't you find a quieter room and let my lord and Changwen have a narration, and the two of us can drink tea outside, how about?"

Chen Ji naturally had no objection, he believed in his son's talent.To be honest, Chen Qun is also considered a rare talent in the Three Kingdoms period, but few people read "Three Kingdoms". , Military generals are written as mediocre people.Chen Ji glanced at Chen Qun and said, "Changwen, since Cao Gong sincerely invites you, you can take him to the side hall for a talk. If he is the master in your heart, you can follow him!"

When Chen Qun heard his father's order, he knew that he had to become an official this time.If he wants to reflect his own value, he must seize this opportunity well.Chen Qun straightened his back and said to Cao, "Mr. Cao, please!"

Following Chen Qun's guidance, Cao came to the side hall and served good tea. Chen Qun asked Cao, "Dare to ask Cao Gongzhi's ambitions!" About this question, Cao was almost able to endorse it.Every time you recruit a counselor, you basically have to be asked again.If he has any inappropriate behavior, someone will ask this question to point out his omissions.After Cao answered carefully, he smiled at Chen Qun: "Changwen, we don't play with such nonsense, how about it, how about you tell me about your ambition?"

"Mr. Cao is just joking. What ambition do I have? I am just a hermit in the mountains! If I say I have some opinions!" Chen Qun was the kind of person who was good at government and law in history, and he quite agreed with the Qin Dynasty corporal punishment.He believes that the Han Dynasty abolished corporal punishment and added flogging and death penalty, originally out of benevolent government, but people died more.Chen Qun explained his views on the administration of officials and criminal law to Cao in detail, and Cao's eyes suddenly brightened.

Cao Xindao: No wonder Cheng Yu recommended Chen Qun. It turns out that their ideas are quite similar, and they both use strictness to suppress the common people so that the common people dare not break the law.Cao laughed and said: "Changwen is a great talent, he will definitely help me. I wonder if Changwen is willing to help me?"
