The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Vol 4 Chapter 4: Snowstorm Night Thorn (Part 1)

Xun Zhen resigned from office and returned home. During the six months of "studying and raising hope" at home, she carefully considered how to deal with the Yellow Turban Uprising.

Although he now has two or three hundred people under his command, compared with the tide of the Yellow Turbans that swept the world, this manpower is only a drop in the ocean. If all hope of "preserving life in troubled times" is placed on these people, I am afraid it is far from enough. . If you want to be safer, the best policy is to rely on the county government. After all, no matter how strong an individual is, it cannot compare to the official temple.

He heard the news that "Tang Zhou from Jiyin wrote to the court and sued Zhang Jiao from Julu for treason." He heard the news at Xun Qu's house.

Xun You, Xun Yu, Xun Qi, Wen Pin and others were also present.

It was Xun Cheng who told the news. Everyone was listening to Xun Qu talk about "Spring and Autumn", but he rushed in and interrupted.

Xun Qu asked, "Where did you hear this news?"

"I met Ting rafter Hu Mian on the street. He drove his car without avoiding people and almost hit me. I grabbed him and asked him what he was doing and why he was so flustered? He told me the news, Said the county magistrate called him to discuss."

Xun Qu dropped the tablet, looked out the window, stroked his knees, sighed, and said, "Hey! In the fifth year of Xiping, Yang Gongbo offered Yuan Wei as Situ, thinking that Zhang Jiao and others were following the leftist way, calling them great sages, deceiving the people, and encountering Forgive me without regrets, the gangsters are thriving, because of the letter to the emperor, please punish the Zhangjiao party person Qu Shuai. Last year, Liu Ziqi returned to the sparse, remarked that the Julu Zhangjiao pretended to be a road, bewitched the common people, and the branches spread all over the prefectures and counties. Due to taboos, the prefecture and county did not hide it from the report, and said 'the private words of the four sides, Yunjiao, etc. stole into the capital, and looked at the government', and asked the emperor to issue a clear edict, raise the horns, etc. It is a pity that the emperor did not listen. Today Zhangjiao The reluctance is revealed, and the foresight of Yang and Liu is revealed."

"Yang Gongboxian" is Yang Ci, and "Liu Ziqi" is Liu Tao. Liu Tao was a son of the Liu family in Yingyin. As his fellow villager, Xun Qu knew very well how he wrote the letter.

He stared out the window, was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice, "I'm afraid this world will be in chaos."

It was early spring, just in the morning. The sun is clear outside the window. There is a jujube tree not far from the window. The old leaves have fallen and the new leaves are growing. The iron-black branches silently pierce the sky. Perhaps because of the shocking news of "Zhang Jiao's treason", everyone in the room followed Xun Qu's line of sight and looked at the jujube tree, and invariably seemed to feel an awe-inspiring murderous aura.

Xun Cheng came in a hurry, sweating all over, and now the sweat went down, and the cold wind swept through the hall, fighting a cold war, and said with a forced smile: "The court has investigated Jizhou and ordered Zhang Jiao to be arrested. Just grab Zhang Jiao and so on. , No matter how many henchmen, even if there are no leaders, they will not be able to make any big waves."

Xun Qu was silent for a moment, then stood up and asked Xun Cheng, "Does the parents know the news?"

"I haven't reported it to my parents yet."

"Today Zhang Jiao has been arrested by the imperial court, and he has nowhere to go, so he will be desperate and desperate. If Jizhou catches him, of course it will be good; if he can't hold it? Although I don't go out very often, I know that many of the people in my county believe in the Way of Taiping. Yes, once Zhang Jiao escapes from the pursuit and raises the flag,...? This is not a trivial matter and should not be taken lightly. You immediately split up and notify the elders in each room, asking them to come to the parent's house quickly, everyone sit down and discuss a countermeasure together Come out. . . . Wen Ruo, how about you?"

Xun Yu was the beloved son of the patriarch Xun Wan and the most outstanding young man in the Xun clan. It was reasonable for Xun Qu to seek his opinion. Xun Yu lifted up her clothes and stood up, with a solemn expression on her face, and replied, "That's how it should be."

Xun Qu nodded and said to Wen Pin, "Zhongye, you should go to the county temple now, find a few officials you know well, and ask the county magistrate's rules for this. Once the county has decided, Come back immediately and let me know."

Wen Ping was young, and when he heard "Zhang Jiao rebelled", he wasn't terrified. Instead, he was inexplicably excited. He jumped up and responded loudly, "Nuo!" He took two steps out and looked back at Xun Zhen, "Xun Zhen. Sir?"

Among the people in the room, who knows the most about the Yellow Turban Uprising? Only Xun Zhen. Xun Qu only guessed that Zhang Jiao might "escape capture", but he was very sure that Jizhou would not be able to catch Zhang Jiao.

He slowly let go of his hand, placed the bamboo slip that was almost broken on the mat, adjusted his clothes, stood up slowly, and with the help of this moment of calm, he sorted out his thoughts, and said to Xun Qu, "I just listened to Brother Zhong. Said that as early as the fifth year of Xiping, Yang Gong saw that Zhang Jiao was planning to do something wrong, which shows that he has a long-standing ambition. He has worked hard for many years, and he must have prepared everything. The imperial court issued an edict in a hurry. Known as a 'great virtuous teacher', his disciples are all over the prefecture and county. As Brother Zhong said, there are a lot of leaders in our county who believe in his way. His movement is definitely not small. How can my clan and my clan be preserved? It's a matter of great importance, and it's about survival, please discuss it with your parents."

Xun Cheng said, "It's not that serious, right? Zhang Jiao is from Julu. He is in Jizhou, thousands of miles away from our Yingchuan. Even if Jizhou can't hold him, it won't affect our Yingchuan, right?"

Speaking of which, Taipingdao's organizational skills are indeed powerful. Zhang Jiao shouted when he climbed high, and the whole world turned upside down for ten days. Even in later generations, this is jaw-dropping and unbelievable. What about now? You must know that with the current traffic conditions, going to a neighboring county, a hundred or ten miles away is considered a long trip. It is not surprising that Xun Cheng questioned.

Xun Zhen really wanted to grab Xun Cheng's shirt and tell him, "I came from the afterlife, so you can believe me!" But he could only think about it, not say it, he took a deep breath and said, " "Book" says: 'As long as everything is done, it is prepared, and there is no danger'. There is no big mistake in being careful."

Xun You and Xun Yu were both cautious people, and they agreed, and both said, "What Zhenzhi said is very true."

Xun Yu said: "Yingchuan, the place of four battles, the world has changed, and soldiers are always rushing. If Zhang Jiao really escapes the trap and causes chaos, then I will suffer from military disasters in Yingchuan. Zhenzhi's words are reasonable, and always be cautious. OK."

Xun You said, "In that case, let's go to visit the parents together~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and ask him to make a decision early."

Xun Zhen shook her head and said, "You go, I won't go."

Xun You was stunned and asked, "Are you going to the prefecture?"

Talking to a smart person saves effort, and he can guess the answer at the beginning. Xun Zhen nodded and said, "Exactly."

Wen Pin asked, "What are you going to do in the prefecture?"

"The Yangzhai people Bocai and Bolian are the commanders of Taiping Daoqu in my county, and Zhangjiao's party. Tieguan Cheng Fan Sheng also believes in Taiping Dao, and communicates with Bocai and Bolian. I want to speak to the prefect and ask him to arrest him. This generation uses Anwu County to take precautions before it happens.”

1. In the fifth year of Xiping, Yang Gongbo offered Yuan Wei as Situ and sent a letter to the emperor to arrest Zhang Jiao's party members.

"First, Zhang Jiao, the commander of the Yellow Turbans, insisted on the left-handed way, calling them great virtuous people, to deceive the people, and the world would betray him. When he was given the time, he was in Situ and summoned Liu Tao and said: 'Zhang Jiao and others have been forgiven without regrets, but they have benefited a little. Ziman, if we go down to the prefecture to arrest him now, it will be more harassing, and the trouble will come quickly. And if I want to cut the imperial governor and the two thousand stones, I will not let the people out, and they will all return to their own county, so as to weaken their party, and then execute their commander. , but it depends on working hard, so what?' Tao Dui said: 'This grandson's so-called subduing soldiers without fighting is the technique of victory in the temple.'

2. Last year, Liu Ziqi resumed his sparseness.

"At that time, Julu Zhangjiao falsely entrusted the road, bewitching the common people, Tao and Fengche's commander Lesong, and Yilang Yuan Gong even mentioned it in their names, saying: 'The Holy King regards the eyes and ears of the world as seeing and hearing, so he can hear and see everything. The Zhangjiao branch is invincible today. The former Situ Yang Ci issued an edict, cut the prefecture, escorted the refugees, and will be removed from the position, and will not be arrested and recorded. Although the order will be pardoned, the plan will not be dissolved. Jiao et al. steal into the capital, look at the government, and the voices of birds and beasts echo privately. It is taboo in the state and prefecture, and I don’t want to hear it. Country. Anyone who dares to evade is the same crime.'”
