The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Popular recommendation:

Yang Biao has been making frequent connections in private recently, criticizing himself behind his back. Xun Zhen actually knew about these things without Cheng Jia reporting them.

He clearly knew that Yang Biao didn't like him and was very vigilant about him. Moreover, Yang Biao was highly regarded and had a great influence in the court and the opposition, so how could he ignore Yang Biao and pay special attention to it?

Therefore, Xun Zhen already knew about Yang Biao's connection, private criticism, etc.

As for saying that this must be dealt with early, it is not necessary for Chen Deng to suggest it. Of course, Xun Zhen wanted to deal with this as early as possible to prevent it from happening. Could it be that he had to wait for the situation to deteriorate, and if it was serious, would he try to solve it? At that time, I will not say that it will be too late, at least it will take more effort to deal with it, and the impact of the processing results may also be greater.

Xun Zhen is not someone with no political experience, so she wouldn't do such a stupid thing, but the question is, even if she knows that Yang Biao is now working behind the scenes and criticizes herself, how can you deal with this if you don't have a valid reason? As Cheng Jia said, immediately wrote to Liu Xie and demanded that Yang Biao be removed from office? Yang Biao is not at fault right now, and it is obviously inappropriate for Liu Xie to get rid of him indiscriminately. You know, Yang Biao is not only famous and respected, but also the current official is Taiwei.

In any case, the Taiwei is the head of the three princes, and the first of the hundred officials in the current court. If Xun Zhen did this, then he would really become Dong Zhuo. Not only would he not achieve the purpose of properly handling this matter, but it would also have the opposite effect, and would arouse more people against him. Some ministers who were originally neutral might join the ranks of opposing him because of this, and some ministers who originally had a good impression of him might alienate him because of this, and they could only isolate themselves in the end. Especially when the court had just moved to Xu County, as Xun Zhen just said, his immediate focus was to stabilize the court situation, that is, when he deepened his foundation in the court, he couldn't do that.

Therefore, Xun Zhen is also very embarrassed now.

Xun Zhen was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Don't you hear 'the road is seen by the eyes'? 'The mouth of defending the people is better than defending the river', this is the saying of the ancient sages. It is to ordinary people, We must not let them speak, not to mention that Yang Gong is the honor of the Taiwei. He and the ministers talk in private, this is his power, and we can't control it. Therefore, as Jun Chang said, please ask the Holy Master Remove him. If that's the case, what's the difference between me and Dong Zhuo? Besides, now that the Sage has moved to Xu, everything is waiting, and it's not appropriate to cause trouble."

Cheng Jia said: "Then what Duke Ming means is that this matter will not be investigated, and Yang Biao will arbitrarily link up with ministers, and slander Duke Ming behind his back at will? Duke Ming, talk about small talk, this consolidates Yang Biao's power, but in To criticize the minister behind his back and confuse the public with slanderous words, this is a violation of national law! If Duke Ming is inconvenient to come forward, Jia Yuan will write to the sage for this crime, and ask the sage to order and punish him."

Xun Zhen smiled, waved her hand and said, "No, no."

Xun Yu sat upright elegantly, stroked his beard and said, "Junchang, what my brother said is very true. This matter of Duke Yang needs to be dealt with, but it should not be rushed."

"Wen Ruo, Yang Biao has only just begun to connect with the ministers. If he stops it early, the influence can still be eliminated, but if he ignores it and leaves, it will lead to serious trouble sooner or later!" Cheng Jia and Xun Yu After saying this, he spoke to Xun Zhen again and said, "Ming Gong, Jia's foolish opinion, there must be no woman's kindness! At this moment, it is precisely because the sage and the court moved to Xuxian that it should be done even more. Thunder means, in order to stand up to the DPRK, shocking and unconvincing."

Xun Zhen asked Chen Deng and said, "Yuanlong, what do you mean?"

Chen Deng thought for a while, then replied to Xun Zhen, and said: "Deng thinks what the public said is reasonable; what Junchang said, at this moment, it is appropriate to use thunderous means to establish a powerful court, and Deng thinks it is reasonable. "

Cheng Jia frowned and said, "Yuan

Long, what is your opinion? "

This matter is indeed difficult to handle. If it is not resolved early, as Cheng Jia said, the negative impact on Xun Zhen may become greater and greater, and sooner or later, it will cause big trouble. However, if it is like Cheng Jia said to use the thunder method, Li Wei is a strong authority, and I am afraid that it will give a bad impression of Xun Zhen's arrogance and domineering to the ministers in the court, which will be greatly detrimental to Xun Zhen's future governance and control of the court. .

So what should we do?

Due to Chen Deng's decisiveness and ability, it was difficult for him to make a choice for a while, and he finally said: "Ming Gong, Deng first arrived in Yingchuan, and he didn't know much about the situation in the DPRK. I have a general understanding of the situation, and dare to present my humble opinion to Duke Ming again.”

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "Okay." She motioned Cheng Jia to go back to the seat, waited for him to sit down, and said to Cheng Jia, "Jun Chang, the so-called pulling one hair and moving the whole body, Yang Gong's matter is 'one hair'. , Wen Ruozhi should not be rushed, this is an old saying. If you look at it again, it will not be too late to discuss it later.”

The incident of Yang Biao could be said to be the first test Xun Zhen encountered after taking over the imperial court, and it had to be handled properly. In the short term, Yang Biao's connection will not form a scale, and it will be difficult to cause substantial obstruction to Xun Zhen. Therefore, let's look at it first—by the way, let's see who is in the same party with Yang Biao, and then When the time is ripe, it will be a solution.

Cheng Jia was really worried that Yang Biao was doing these things in private, linking up with ministers, criticizing Xun Zhen, and planning to submit a letter to Liu Xie, suggesting that after the renovation of Luoyang Palace City, he would return to Luoyang, etc., which would damage Xun Zhen. "Following the emperor's plan to harass him", but Xun Zhen was unwilling to deal with Yang Biao immediately, and he had no choice but to agree to his promise, thinking to himself that he would need to increase surveillance on Yang Biao and others in the future. Before anything happens, inform Xun Zhen in time, and it's better to do it first.

Following Yang Biao's topic, Chen Deng asked about the DPRK and China, and Xun Zhen also asked him about Langya County and Xuzhou.

A few maids came in with candles in their hands, and everyone realized that twilight had come.

That night, Xun Zhen held a banquet in the house to wash away the dust for Chen Deng.

Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, Chen Qun, Guo Jia, Cheng Jia and others all accompanied him. Xun Zhen also invited Jia Xu and Huangfu Li to introduce them to Chen Deng. Originally, Zhong Yao was also invited, but Zhong Yao was on duty tonight, so he was unable to come.

The county seat of Yingchuan was in Yangzhai, and the county seat was also in Yangzhai. Chen Deng had no place to live in Xu County, so he should have lived in the post house, but how could Xun Zhen let him live in the post office? After leaving, leave him to live in the house.

...

The next morning, Chen Deng had an audience with Liu Xie.

Although the position of the prefect of Yingchuan became very important because the court moved to Xu County, no matter how important it was, he was only a prefect. It is reasonable to say that Liu Xie did not need to meet Chen Deng. For Xun Zhen's sake, secondly, Fu Shou, who was named Queen not long ago, was the former noble Fu, whose home was in Langya County, so it was Liu Xie who announced him.

Chen Deng just came to see him, he offered a tribute and made a few polite remarks. Liu Xie asked him a few words about the situation in Langya County.

The total interview time did not last long, only half an hour.

Chen Deng left the palace, came to Xun Zhen's chariot general's house, and came to see Xun Zhen again.

——Xun Zhen's current chariot general, Lu Shang Shushi, and Sili Xiaowei, these three official positions have their own office, but Xun Zhen knows the truth that power comes from the barrel of a gun. After all, the army is what he can do in the long run. To grasp the foundation of the power of the court, and also to show Liu Xie and the ministers of the court that he is not greedy for power, because in most of the normal times up to now, he has

Working in the General's Mansion, if there is anything he needs to decide between the Shang Shutai and the Sili School, the officials from the two official offices will come to the General's Mansion.

Seeing Xun Zhen in the hall, Chen Deng bid farewell and said: "Ming Gong, Deng has already seen the saint, and is going to take office in Yangzhai today."

"I only arrived in Xu County yesterday, and I will take office today? Yuanlong, why is it so urgent?"

Chen Deng replied: "Ming Gong, the sooner you take office, the sooner you will be able to get acquainted with the situation in the county, and the sooner you will be able to start Sasuke Ming's administration of the farmland."

After the banquet last night, Xun Zhen and Chen Deng fell asleep, and the two chatted until dawn.

Xun Zhen explained to Chen Deng a few things that he needed to focus on or pay attention to after he took office.

One of them is that Xunzhen planned to build large-scale farms around Xuxian County, and Chen Deng did not need to manage the manpower of the farms. He planned to relocate the troops and civilians who had built the farms in Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou and other places. However, the land needed for the farmland had to be allocated by Chen Deng.

"Okay, it's better to take office early. Yuanlong, there are many nobles in my county. After you take office, in order to facilitate your administration in the future, you may wish to bring more scholars from my county into the county palace."

Chen Deng said with a smile: "Why should Duke Ming give orders, Deng knows it."

Xun Zhen hesitated, looked at Chen Deng twice, as if there was something to say, but she finally said it and said with a smile: "Yuanlong, I mean, you'd better not be like when you were in Langya County, When you meet someone you don't like, you can't afford to lie high and make others unable to step down."

Chen Deng was born in a wealthy family, with great talent and a heroic temperament. When he was the prefect of Langya County, he could not help but show his sharp edge in dealing with people. There is no family name~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but there is no real person, he usually doesn't even bother to say a word to him, and looks at him with blank eyes. Because of his style, although Langya County has been managed by him in an orderly manner, his reputation among the right surnames and Guan clans in the counties of Langya County is really not very good.

Chen Deng said: "Ming Gong, if you meet a truly talented person, Deng Zi is willing to bow to himself, and if you are a flashy and useless person, Deng really can't be perfunctory."

"What a 'Qu Ji' and 'Qu Xin'. Yuanlong, you are really ruthless."

Even Xun Zhen personally came forward and asked Chen Deng to show respect to the scholars in his county, but Chen Deng refused to agree, and he was ruthless.

Although Xun Zhen was very busy with official duties, she still took time out to send Chen Deng out of the city for a few miles before returning to the mansion.

Chen Deng didn't go to Yangzhai alone. Besides his entourage, there was another person who went with him.

This person is the former prefect of Yingchuan Liu Bei.

When Han Ji received the imperial edict to appoint him as the prefect of Yingchuan, but he did not receive the imperial edict, Liu Bei had a vague premonition that this prefect of Yingchuan might not be possible for him.

If he expected, Xun Zhen recommended Chen Deng to take the post shortly afterward.

It is impossible to say that Liu Bei was not disappointed because of this. After all, although he has been hailed by the imperial court as the commander of the cavalry capital, he is still the chief of a county, especially the chief of Yingchuan County, where the imperial capital is now. Wei is obviously not as good as that.

However, in the eyes of Liu Xie, the joy of thinking that it was Jane in the emperor's heart has not diminished, so Liu Bei's disappointment is still within the range he can bear. And needless to say.

Xun Zhen was on duty that evening, and when she returned home, she walked around the courtyard with her hands behind her back, looking up at the sky from time to time.
