Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 1004 Buying People's Hearts
Afterwards, Emperor Xian put the roster aside, and said righteously: "If these soldiers hadn't thrown their heads and sprinkled their blood, how could our great Han country have ushered in this peaceful day, and now you only give them such a small reward, I don't know Some of them thought that the Emperor Xian had abused them."

Jia Xu was also quite dissatisfied with Emperor Xian's words at this moment. Although he was on this list, he did not deduct the achievements of the soldiers at all.

But for those who have done meritorious deeds, all the rewards they deserve are handled according to the rules.

However, Emperor Xian's words were rebuking himself.

Everyone didn't have time to look at the roster, after all, Jia Xu was still the top leader in the court at that time.

Since he had already set a reward for opening his mouth, everyone naturally wouldn't go forward to look at the contents of the roster so discreetly.

I also tacitly agreed in my heart, you Jia Xu can do whatever you want, anyway, now that your Yuan family is powerful, and I wait for you to talk lightly, why bother to make such a fuss.

But now that Emperor Xian came out, he pointed out that the reward on the list was wrong, which made everyone beat the drum in their hearts.

I didn't expect that your Yuan family would be so ruthless, and would treat the soldiers who have been with you through life and death with a pinch of salt.

This is really the meaning of some flying birds doing their best to hide their bows.

Then he looked at Jia Xu with some amusement.

However, how could Jia Xu endure Xiandi's slander at this moment, and he said, "Your Majesty, you may have stayed in the harem for a long time. I am afraid that you don't know much about the rewards in the army. But all the soldiers on the roster who should be rewarded have their own rewards." His military achievements can be used as a reference, so he acts according to the military booklet. If your Majesty does not believe it, you can go back and compare it. If there is any error in it, you can convict the minister. How can you make such a guess and say that the minister is unfair? ?”

When Emperor Xian saw his casual words, Jia Xu, who had always been calm, was angered, and then he smiled and said: "Look at Taiwei Jia, I didn't say that you were wrong in rewarding me, why bother to be seated like this."

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

"I think this list is based on military merit, and the content in it is correct based on the abilities of Jia Taiwei and other ministers. It's just that I feel that such a reward is far from being able to achieve the hard work that everyone has put in for my great man. , That's why I said that, but Taiwei Jia misunderstood, why don't I compensate you?" Liu Xie laughed.

"I don't dare, so what reward does Your Majesty think is appropriate?" Jia Xu asked.

"Well, all those who have done meritorious deeds here will be promoted to three ranks, the captain will give the land, and the general will confer the land. If you want to come to the south for the first peace, it will be a bit unsettled. Just let them go, and it can also deter the local Xiaoxiao and protect our country. .” Liu Xie said.

When the ministers saw that Liu Xie was so generous, instead of stopping the reward, they actually rewarded him even more generously.

Didn't he know that these award recipients were all from the Yuan family's army, and in the final analysis, they could be regarded as Yuan's power.

Wouldn't such a generous award make the Yuan family even more prosperous?
However, Jia Xu, who knows people's hearts very well, saw that something was wrong, and immediately said: "This is not right, Your Majesty..."

"There is no need to say more, since you still call me Your Majesty, then do as I say, and there is no need to discuss this matter again." After Liu Xie finished speaking, he also left.

Everyone also knelt down and said, "Here!"

With the departure of Emperor Xian, the ministers of the court also retreated one after another.

Only Jia Xu was left with a look of embarrassment at the moment.

Seeing this, Cheng Yu stepped forward and said, "Wenhe, what's the matter? Since the Emperor Xian insists on ennobling the soldiers, why are you unhappy?"

Jia Xu said with a melancholy face: "It would be great if this is the case, do you really think that His Majesty would be so kind?"

Seeing what Jia Xu said, Cheng Yu also had some doubts and said, "Isn't it? Could there be a conspiracy here?"

Seeing that Cheng Yu didn't see the stakes here, Jia Xu immediately said: "That's all, let's go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion as soon as possible and report this matter to King Qi. We're afraid that something will change if it's too late!"

After speaking, he also speeded up his pace a little, so that Cheng Yu followed behind him with a dazed expression. To be honest, he didn't understand why it was wrong to be promoted.

Because Jia Xu was impatient, the two soon came to Xiangfu.

Yuan Tan also did not go to accompany his two wives today.

Ever since meeting Emperor Xian that day, Yuan Tan's heart could not be calmed down for a long time.

According to what he said that day, it was enough for Yuan Tan to raise his vigilance against Liu Xie.

After all, Yecheng where he is now is not his fief Xuzhou, if he really wants to do something.

I can't help but suffer some dark losses.

Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of his wife and children, he must come up with a clever plan to prevent all accidents from happening.

However, at this moment, Jia Xu and Cheng Yu also hurried over.

Seeing this, Yuan Tan also asked, "Wen He, why is Zhong De so panicked? Aren't you two going to announce the award today?"

"King Qi, that's exactly what happened, something happened." Jia Xu said.

Yuan Tan was also surprised when he heard this, how could there be an accident in announcing the award?
Then Jia Xu also informed Yuan Tan in detail about what happened in the court today.

After Yuan Tan heard this, he also said: "However, since Emperor Xian wants to buy people's hearts, he will follow him. Could it be that he thinks that the soldiers of my Yuan family who have gone out can really sell their masters for glory just because of his little gifts? ?”

Seeing that Yuan Tan didn't take it seriously, Jia Xu said immediately, "But King Qi, you know that even if they didn't rebel, they were far away from Yecheng because they were entrusted to the southern regions. , there will be no more generals who have made good friends with you, but once..."

Yuan Tan also comforted: "Wenhe, don't worry, this Emperor Xian just wants me to be isolated and helpless. Does he think that these generals are really far away from Yecheng because they are sent to the south?"

Jia Xu didn't know what Yuan Tan meant, so he asked, "What does King Qi mean?"

Yuan Tan didn't want to say anything, so he pointed to the sky with his finger and looked at Jia Xu with a smile.

Jia Xu followed Yuan Tan's point and looked over, but saw the blue sky and white clouds, and there seemed to be nothing unusual.

Thinking about it, Yuan Tan's meaning was not that simple, so he thought about it carefully.

Thinking of this, my brain seemed to be enlightened, and then I said: "King Qi, could it be that you also expected this in advance?"

Yuan Tan said with a smile: "I am not a god, how could I predict everything? It's just that he is Xiandi and underestimates me, Yuan Xiansi."

The two immediately looked at each other and smiled, and Jia Xu's previous worries completely dissipated.

On the contrary, it was Cheng Yu who had been playing charades with the two of them, and he was a little confused at the moment.

But seeing that Jia Xu was no longer as worried as before, he also murmured: "I told Wen He that you were too worried, what is there to worry about when you become an official and become a noble?"

Yuan Tan and Jia Xu naturally heard Cheng Yu's words, and then laughed even louder.
