Wei and Jin cooks

As proud as Xun Xiu, when Zhao Hanzhang came up with the wine jar, he couldn't help but stand up with the bowl in hand.

Zhao Hanzhang poured him a bowl of wine and said with a smile: "I heard that when General Xun took over Xuchang, he led eight hundred soldiers into the city alone and made the first contribution to the recovery of Xuchang!"

Xun Xiu became complacent, but he was still modest when facing Zhao Hanzhang, "Thanks to General Zhao for leading away the Huns stationed in Xuchang. The Yamen generals guarding the city were Qiao Xi's men. When Qiao Xi died, they were distraught. I sent a large number of soldiers and horses to chase General Zhao, and I took advantage of him."

Mi Ce squeezed up and said with a smile: "If you say so, who of us didn't take advantage of General Zhao? Half of the Xiongnu troops in Yuzhou were led away by General Zhao and General Beigong."

At this point, the soldiers remembered and asked, "General, where is General Beigong?"

Zhao Hanzhang said regretfully: "General Beigong is homesick and has gone back to Xiliang."

Xun Xiu then inquired: "In this battle of Yuzhou, General Beigong deserves the first credit, right?"

All the soldiers pricked up their ears. Although they were basically out of the control of the imperial court now, they would still be very happy if they could accumulate military merit and be conferred a title by the imperial court.

Zhao Hanzhang smiled and nodded, while pouring himself a drink, he said: "Yes, General Gou and General Beigong are the first to do it. Without them, our difficulties in Yuzhou would not be so easy to solve."

She touched their bowls with her wine bowl, "Respect from a distance, General Beigong and General Gou."

Zhao Hanzhang drank it all in one gulp.

The soldiers were also convinced by the achievements of Gou Xi and Beigong Chun. Seeing that Zhao Hanzhang had set the tone, they also raised their bowls and said, "I respect General Beigong and General Gou from afar."

Zhao Hanzhang laughed with them and said, "But the contributions of all the generals are not small. I will remember them all. When this matter is over, I will write to the court and ask for the title of the generals."

Everyone's eyes sparkled, and they all responded happily.

Prefect Zhang was left behind, and when he saw them acting like Zhao Hanzhang was already the governor, he couldn't help but feel depressed. He drank up all the wine in the bowl and turned to leave.

He had quietly sent someone to contact the King of East China Sea in the afternoon, but no news had come yet.

Zhao Hanzhang glanced at him and saw him turning around. He immediately came forward with a wine jar, stopped him and said: "Prefect Zhang, the soldiers are having fun together, why are they so depressed? Come on, come on, I'll offer you three bowls of wine."

She laughed and said: "I just found out today that this wine is really good. It makes you more happy when you are happy, and makes you happy when you are bored. It is really a good product."

When the soldiers heard what she said, they laughed boldly and said, "General, you have learned the true meaning of wine!"

Zhao Ming, who was sitting and drinking, raised the corners of his mouth, turned to Ji Yuan and said, "She is a bit like me in this way."

Ji Yuan did not want his lord to become an alcoholic at all, but drinking could indeed build a closer relationship with the soldiers, so he remained silent.

Fu Tinghan didn't drink, he just sat quietly and drank water.

Zhao Hanzhang came back from a round of drinking, still very energetic. She invited everyone to eat meat, "Although wine is delicious, drinking too much is harmful to the body, so you should eat more meat! Come on, everyone eat meat!"

Everyone happily ate meat.

Zhang Taishou, who was being pulled, couldn't get away for a while, which made him even more depressed.

Zhao Hanzhang really wanted to talk to Prefect Zhang, so she held him tightly and offered him three bowls of wine, thanking him for his generosity and tolerance, and sighed: "Prefect Zhang is willing to put aside his prejudices and banish me first. Xiongnu, it can be seen that the prefect still cares about the people at heart, and based on this, I should respect the prefect."

After that, she poured another bowl of wine for herself and Prefect Zhang.

I don’t know whether Governor Zhang was moved or not, but the generals surrounding him were moved. Xun Xiu sighed and said, "General Zhao can think like this, which shows that he has a broader mind."

Zhang Taishou, who was in a slightly better mood, immediately felt bad again.

Zhao Hanzhang looked embarrassed. She was sincerely praising Prefect Zhang. After all, she was about to resign him. Alas, he had worked in Ruyin County for many years. She was a little embarrassed to resign as soon as she took office.

So I thought that by praising the person first, the atmosphere would be relaxed when we discussed the matter of dismissal later, but who knew that it would backfire again.

Zhao Hanzhang had a headache. She really had no experience in this kind of thing. She had only seen it in books before. She was actually a teacher and librarian. No matter how rich her theoretical knowledge was, she had never practiced it.

By the way, if she fires the person later, there won't be any bloodshed, right?

Zhang Taishou seemed to really dislike her.

Just as he had a headache, a soldier carefully avoided the crowd and went to Ji Yuan and handed him a letter.

Ji Yuan unfolded it and took a look, and his warm expression suddenly turned cold.

Fu Tinghan, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but turn his head and look, "What's wrong?"

Ji Yuan handed him the letter to read.

Fu Tinghan took it and glanced at it, his expression a little bad.

After taking a look at Zhao Hanzhang, who was still struggling with a headache and pulling Prefect Zhang to explain, he stood up and walked over.

Ji Yuan was startled and said hurriedly: "Dalangjun, this matter can be dealt with later. Tonight is..."

Fu Tinghan had already walked to Zhao Hanzhang, took her hand and pulled her aside and said, "No need to have a headache."

"Um?"

Fu Tinghan handed her the letter in his hand, "Someone made the decision for you."

Zhao Hanzhang was already a little drunk. Hearing this, he took the letter and read it with a smile. She burst into laughter and almost burst into tears of joy.

She stuffed the wine jar into Fu Tinghan's arms, stepped forward and patted Prefect Zhang on the shoulder, saying happily: "Prefect Zhang, do you still want to be the governor of Yuzhou?"

Zhang Taishou suddenly thought, his eyes fell on the letter in her hand, and he said calmly: "The position of governor is currently vacant. Anyone with both ability and political integrity can take it..."

"But are you virtuous and talented?" Zhao Hanzhang looked at him with a smile and said: "Firstly, you are not recommended by the people, secondly, you have no ability to quell chaos, and thirdly, the whole Yuzhou knows that Gou Xi was hired by me at a great price. He came out of the mountains to help us in Yuzhou to drive out the Huns. Even if we in Yuzhou can't reciprocate the favor, we won't add insult to injury to him at this time, right?"

Zhao Hanzhang shook the letter in his hand with one hand and asked Prefect Zhang with a smile, "Prefect Zhang, which one of the two items of virtue and talent do you think you have?"

Although she was smiling, the soldiers surrounding her felt her anger. Facing her cold gaze, Prefect Zhang felt a chill go down his spine and was about to leave Zhao Hanzhang.

However, Zhao Hanzhang held down his shoulders and stopped him from moving, "Don't move."

Zhao Hanzhang lowered his voice and said softly: "I am angry now, but I can't make sure I have a sense of control in my hands. Governor Zhang, do you still want to keep this arm?"

Zhang Taishou felt the pain and immediately did not dare to move.

Xun Xiu and others also heard this and looked at each other in confusion, so everyone pushed me and I pushed you. In the end, Zhao Kuan, who had become familiar with them and had made many contributions this time, was pushed to the front.
