Yinhou of the Three Kingdoms

Guo Jia pondered for a long time, and then slowly said these words.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the government was corrupt and the court was fatuous, which made the people of the world feel ashamed!

However, buying and selling officials and peddling titles made Confucian disciples even more shameless.

Now, Ning Rong is blatantly accepting bribes, secretly giving and accepting bribes to officials in Yanzhou counties, this matter will eventually spread, and by then... I am afraid that Ning Rong will become the object of contempt by the world.

Ugh!

Ning Rong shook his head.

"Feng Xiao said, how can Rong not know, but now the Lord's public house is about to be built! Yanzhou officialdom is bound to launch a big cleansing. Although Liu Dai is dead, the officials he left behind are still there, and the most prestigious among them Zhang Miao's prestige has spread far and wide in Yanzhou, and there is a faint tendency to compete with the lord! Such a person, but the lord has a heart-to-heart relationship! Isn't this terrible?"

Zhang Miao?

Not bad!

Guo Jia nodded silently, he was already well-known for this person.

When Zhang Miao was young, he was famous for his chivalry. He often helped the poor and took pleasure in helping others.

Moreover, he is also a friend of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.Back then, the three were all princes of one side, and the imperial court recruited him to be an official. With his outstanding achievements, he was appointed as the captain of cavalry, and soon he was appointed as the prefect of Chenliu.

When the eighteen princes raised their troops against Dong Zhuo, Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, was one of the princes. Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance at that time, was afraid of his prestige and asked Cao Cao to secretly harm him many times!But instead of harming him, Cao Cao got closer to him than before.

At that time, Cao Cao was just a boy with no official position, and he was full of enthusiasm to save the Han Dynasty, so he was naturally dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's self-destructive approach.

Later, Zhang Miao followed Cao Cao after the Battle of Bianshui, and when Cao Cao became the prefect of Dongjun, he trusted Zhang Miao even more.

But... Zhang Miao is right for his trust. You would rather plan to get rid of Liu Dai. Although Bao Xin took the lead in advocating to welcome Cao Cao into Yanzhou, Zhang Miao is also responsible for this.

As the leader of Yanzhou, Zhang Miao's prestige in Yanzhou was no worse than that of Bao Xin. This was also the reason why Cao Cao was able to enter Yanzhou smoothly without disturbance.

but……

It's different now!

Cheng Yu suggested to Cao Cao more than once that it is best to keep a certain distance from Zhang Miao.

After all, there are no two suns in the sky, and no two masters in the land. Cao Cao, who is the shepherd of Yanzhou, is very close to Zhang Miao. It turns out that the old school officials in Yanzhou are bound to attach themselves to Zhang Miao. This is a terrifying force.

"Zhiyuan, you are worried..." Guo Jia stared at Ning Rong with bright eyes.

Ning Rong shook his head resolutely, "I don't know! Before things come, we can't make assumptions! However, the current situation in Yanzhou seems to be clear, but in fact there are three huge forces intertwined!"

"Oh?" Guo Jia signaled him to continue.

"The first is naturally the new Yanzhou faction headed by the lord, the second is the old Yanzhou faction headed by Zhang Miao, and the third..."

Speaking of this, Ning Rong stopped with a smile, Guo Jia curled his lips, and continued: "The third is naturally the group of people that you, Ning Zhiyuan, are gathering now!"

"That's right! My lord's delay in appointing officials is probably because of Zhang Miao. He not only believes in Zhang Miao, but also worries about those people under his command, so... I'll mix some sand in it for him to confuse the public! "

Ning Rong chuckled, the local rich men in Yanzhou outside are all well-informed people, ever since the news of Cao Cao opening a mansion and building a government office, they have been staring at the Zhendong General’s Mansion all day long, hoping to get an official half-time.

And at this moment of panic, suddenly there was a gossip that Ning Rong, a counselor under Mr. Cao's tent, had a way to help everyone become an official.

then……

The scene just now took place outside the Ning Mansion.

Guo Jia is constantly thinking about the future trend. Although Ning Rong's power is not great, the victory lies in its large number. So many county government offices have been turned into copper coins, and even if they want to hide it, they can't hide it.

The three forces intersect within the jade-belt-like Yanzhou, I'm afraid that Ning Zhiyuan is holding his breath again!

Rolling his eyes at Ning Rong's half-smile, disdainful look, Guo Jia understood, needless to say, the unlucky one must be the force headed by Zhang Miao.

only……

Some things are not convenient for Rong Rong to say!

What Ning Rong needs is a complete and clean Yanzhou, not a complicated Yanzhou.

His ultimate goal is not to clear one force, but... two forces!

Ning Rong clenched her fists tightly and muttered to herself, there can only be one force in Yanzhou!

……

Man Chong has not lived comfortably these past few days. He has been running around in the hot summer all day, and his already solemn and swarthy face is now even darker!

When Cao Cao heard that Man Chong had something to report to him, he thought it was some kind of crime committed by a wealthy family, and he was ready to deal with it.

But... When he saw Man Chong, he was still taken aback.

"Oh...Bonin, you...you are..."

Cao Cao stood up in surprise, and looked at Man Chong, who was dark and glowing red, what's wrong?Does he have the habit of basking in the sun?

Man Chong didn't care about Cao Cao's concern, and threw a thick paper from his sleeve with a solemn face.

"My lord, Ning has been accepting bribes in recent days, buying and selling officials, and now he is relying on the lord's prestige to steal and threaten merchants. This is his criminal evidence!"

Man Chong didn't give Cao Cao a chance, so he handed over Ning Rong's criminal evidence, and continued: "Now that Yanzhou is exhausted and the people are suffering, it's time for ambitious people to show their talents and loyal people to serve the country! Buying and selling! This kind of behavior is better than the poison of the Yellow Turban! Please, my lord, clarify the punishment!"

Man Chong said angrily, at first he didn't take it seriously when he heard someone talking about it, after all Ning Rong gave him a good feeling, although he was a little lazy.

But... I didn't expect him to fall so quickly!The world is not yet stable, but they are greedy for money and profit, and openly defile the country's laws!

Man Chong's consistent view on people who corrupt the law and commit the most heinous crimes is to behead them!

Therefore, after collecting the criminal evidence, looking at these shocking transactions, thinking of those tens of thousands of people who will be impoverished and suffering all kinds of disasters under the governance of these people, my heart is full of grief and indignation!

My lord... Is this the virtuous talent you speak of!

Man Chong frowned, staring at Cao Cao's expression.

Chapter 237 Cao Cao's Confidence

Man Chong sued Ning Rong to Cao Cao!

Things have been revealed!

The news swirled around Zhencheng like the wind, touching the hearts of countless people.

Some people rejoice, some people cast aside!Some people even worry about whether their goals can be realized.

At this moment, countless people are waiting for Cao Cao, wanting to see if Cao Cao, who has been in the limelight recently, is known as the Duke of Zhou, is he really like the legend, the image of a corporal who is respectful and dedicated to the country.
