Han Dao world

Zang Hong didn't feel happy, but rather disappointed.

"Does Yanmen still have a registered permanent residence?"

"Not many, the whole county is about the same as Dongwuyang." Xun Yu said lightly: "Of course, these are only registered registered households. Inspired by the emperor, recently there have been more and more Hu people from outside the Great Wall to settle in the Great Wall, but they have not been accepted. Indoctrination, management is even more difficult."

As he said that, Xun Yu showed a slight smile. "If Ziyuan finds it difficult and doesn't want to take up the post, I can write a letter to the emperor on your behalf. It just so happens that I am short of people here. If you are willing, you can stay and be a county magistrate."

Zang Hong snorted. "You don't need to provoke me." Then he said: "Is there such a shortage of people in Hedong, even the county magistrate?"

Xun Yu shook his head with a smile. "It's not a lack of people, it's a lack of capable people."

Zang Hong curled his lips involuntarily, and when he was about to sneer, Xun Yu waved his hand to signal him to be calm.

"Today's Hedong is different from the past. It is not only the capital of the Han Dynasty, but also the foundation and even a sample of the Han Dynasty's revival. Therefore, we cannot be satisfied with the stability of the people and sufficient taxes, but also follow the kingly way. The county magistrate is an official who is close to the people and educates the people. The foundation is that only those who have both morality and ability are incompetent. Looking at the whole of Hedong, there are only two who can basically meet the requirements, Liu Ba and Liu Zichu, the governor of Anyi, and Jia Kui and Jia Liangdao, the governor of Jiangyi."

"Jia Kui and Jia Liang Dao?"

"He is from Xiangling, Hedong. He is very young. You may not know him."

Zang Hong was somewhat disapproving.There are no big families in Hedong, which is the consensus among scholars.It's child's play for a person from Hedong, and he is very young, to be treated so highly by Xun Yu.

It seems that Xun Yu is a little too famous.

Zang Hong originally had the intention of staying in Hedong, but now he no longer thinks about it.Although the entrance of Yanmen is good, the more soldiers and horses there are, the more opportunities to fight Yuan Shao in the future.

Zang Hong stayed in Anyi for one night, then set off immediately.

Xun Yu suggested that he give up riding a carriage and choose to ride a horse.From here to the north, there are more and more mountains, and it is inconvenient to travel by car.

Chen Rong had practical experience and advised Zang Hong to take up his post on horseback.

Zang Hong thought that when he took office in Yanmen, he would inevitably have to deal with cavalry, so he accepted Xun Yu's suggestion.His father, Zang Min, once served as the general of the Xiongnu Zhonglang and led his troops out of the fortress. He practiced riding and archery since he was a child. He always had horses at home, and his riding skills were good.

Xun Yu provided Zang Hong with two horses.

The emperor captured a large number of horses in northern Xinjiang, and sent some of them to the east of the river to serve as postal servants.The prefect's mansion also kept some, and usually sent orders to the counties by riding horses, which was several times faster than humans.

Zang Hong started on the road again.

Thinking of what Xun Yu said, Zang Hong paid attention to the customs and customs along the way to see how far the governance of Anyi was from the kingly way.

There is a large area of ​​cultivated land on both sides of the Su River in the north of Anyi City. It is the midsummer season, and the wheat seedlings in the field grow very fast.In the fields, men and women can be seen everywhere. In addition to the farmers working in the fields, there are also little shepherd boys herding cattle and sheep, and half-grown children chasing geese and ducks by the water.

Zang Hong soon discovered a different phenomenon. Many of these half-grown children were carrying letters, either in their belts, or hung on the horns, or held in their hands.Although some children did not bring books, what they hummed and recited were the teachings of some saints.

There are "The Analects of Confucius", "Book of Filial Piety", and "Mencius".

Zang Hong was somewhat surprised. "The Analects of Confucius" and "Book of Filial Piety" are common enlightenment books, but "Mencius" is not. Most of the people who read "Mencius" are scholars who have a certain foundation and are dedicated to learning, not suitable for beginners.

Out of curiosity, he asked a young man who recited aloud "Heaven will send a great mandate to all people", and then he learned that "Mencius" is one of the enlightenment textbooks of various schools in Hedong, and the teacher is a disciple of the imperial servant Zhao Qi.

Zang Hong met Zhao Qi.When Zhao Qi was ordered to appease the Guandong and persuade Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan to stop their troops, Zang Hong had a relationship with him.I know that he has put a lot of effort into "Mencius", but there are not many friends, so I didn't expect to find a place to use it in Hedong.

Zang Hong was very curious, and decided to visit Zhao Qi when passing through Taiyuan.

Xun Yu told him that Zhao Qi had returned from Kanto and was in Taiyuan.

When passing by Jiangyi, Zang Hong thought of Xun Yu's praise for Jia Kui, the magistrate of Jiangyi, and decided to stay overnight in Jiangyi, and inquire about Jia Kui by the way.

After staying in the post house, Zang Hong called the post chief and asked about Jia Kui.

The postmaster answered a few words, and asked a casual question when he left. "Did you come from Kanto?"

Zang Hong didn't think much about it, and nodded in recognition.

The postmaster left, and Zang Hong sat down to eat.Before he finished eating, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, as if someone had surrounded the yard where he lived.Immediately afterwards, a young man walked in, followed by two soldiers.

The postmaster also followed in and pointed at Zang Hong. "Jia Jun, that's him."

The young man walked up to Zang Hong and cupped his hands. "Mr. Zang, Jia Kui, the commander of Jiangyi, dare to ask for advice."

Zang Hong got up, greeted Jia Kui, looked at the postmaster, then at the soldiers waiting in full force, and said with a smile, "What does the Ming court mean?"

Jia Kui didn't explain, but looked Zang Hong up and down. "Kanto people?"

Chen Rong just stepped forward to explain, but was stopped by Zang Hong.

"Yes."

"Are you coming to Hedong for business or for pleasure?"

Zang Hong shook his head. "neither."

He came to Hedong in response to the Son of Heaven's conquest, but Chen Rong had never seen the Son of Heaven, the imperial edict was in the hands of Chen Gong, and Zang Hong did not have any proof.His biography was issued by the Governor's Mansion of Hedong, but it didn't reveal his identity, he was no different from an ordinary scholar.

As for the official position of the prefect of Yanmen, he only heard it from Xun Yu, and he has not actually fulfilled the position, and there is no evidence for it.

Apparently, Jia Kui was very wary of the Kanto people. The reason why the Postmaster went to report may be due to his accent and his interest in Jia Kui himself, causing suspicion, so that Jia Kui not only came here in person, but also sent people to surround the Posthouse. Make.

This is to take him seriously.

Zang Hong became very interested in Jia Kui, and even believed Xun Yu's words a little bit.

Among other things, Jia Kui is very vigilant, and governing the county is quite like governing the army.

Because of family tradition, Zang Hong likes to learn the art of war, and Jia Kui is very fond of him.

"What are you doing here at Hedong?" Jia Kui paced back and forth, with his hand on the knife ring around his waist.

"Does the Ming court know about the alliance between the Guandong Prefectures and counties to seek Dong?"

"Know a thing or two."

"I am the main ally."

Jia Kui was stunned, staring at Zang Hong again and again, and suddenly said: "Then Taiyuan Taiyuan Guangling Zangjun Zhongming is you?"

"That's the father."

Jia Kui widened his eyes. "Are you the Zang Hong who took revenge for the old master based on Dongwuyang?"

"Exactly." Zang Hong stroked his beard.

Jia Kui laughed and patted his forehead. "I'm really ignorant and ignorant. The pearl is in front of me, but I treat it as a fish's eye. Ashamed, ashamed."

While talking, Jia Kui apologized and ordered people to remove the siege.

Zang Hong didn't mind. "Jiangyi is in the hinterland of Hedong, why is the Ming court so vigilant?"

Jia Kui shook his head again and again. "Mr. Zang does not know that Jiangyi is located at the intersection of the north and the south, and the east and the west. There are many people coming and going, and many of them are carefully working in the Kanto. I have a heavy responsibility, so I have to pay more attention. The emperor's line is located, and there is a rebellion. Not nice."

"Will Kanto Sosaku come here to inquire about news?"

Jia Kui sighed. "Guo Tu escaped from Hedong through Jiangyi."

Chapter 387

Jia Kui's answer was irrelevant to the question, but Zang Hong understood it.

The reason why Jia Kui stepped up his guard was definitely not because he missed Guo Tu, but because there were indeed many secret works in the Kanto region.Therefore, Jia Kui is unwilling to elaborate on him, a native of Kanto, even though Jia Kui himself admires him very much.

Zang Hongchu had just arrived and was not very familiar with the geography of Hedong. He only knew that Jiangyi could join the Shangdang if he went east.

Shangdang prefect Zhong Yao was also from Kanto.Guo Tu escaped from Hedong by way of Jiangyi, and he had to go through Shangdang, and maybe he got Zhong Yao's help.

With such a forerunner, it is difficult for Jia Kui to fully trust Zhong Yao, just as he will not fully trust him at this moment.

In order to express his apology, or to further explore, Jia Kui hosted a banquet in honor of Zang Hong.

At this time, Zang Hongcai explained his application and introduced Chen Rong.

For a moment, Jia Kui's face was a little upset, but he immediately recovered his composure, and congratulated Zang Hong with a smile on his face.

Zang Hong looked at it carefully and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Xun Yu said that Jia Kui could have both morality and morality, but he felt that Jia Kui was too utilitarian.At Jia Kui's age, being able to serve as the magistrate of Jiangyi is already a promising young man, is it possible that he still wants to be the prefect at home?

Even the sons of famous families like Yuan Shao and Yang Biao were only county magistrates when they first entered office.

Zang Hong pondered for a while and said with a smile: "Jiangyi was once feuded by Zhou Bo, and Liang Dao was the edict of Jiangyi. How do you feel about Zhou Bo and his son?"

Jia Kui laughed.This is because Zang Hong felt that he was too young and wanted to use Zhou Bo's story to teach him a lesson.

He is a good teacher, and he is worthy of being a celebrity.

"Although Zhou Bo has made meritorious deeds, he is only as good as a dragon and a phoenix. Because of the changing times, his knowledge and morals are useless. He is just a follower of the rules. As for Zhou Yafu, he refuses Wu's meritorious service, but it is difficult to assist the prince. It is difficult for the emperor to be rude. Called a minister. Although his son did not know about stealing and selling official organs, he was also negligent in discipline. The crime does not deserve death, but it is not innocent."

Zang Hong frowned even tighter, and couldn't help asking another question. "What about the story of Zhou Yafu's Xiliu Camp?"

Jia Kui smiled and shook his hand. "The power minister is domineering, what's the point? He is really a famous general, and his achievements are not limited to quelling the chaos of Wu and Chu? When the north hits the Xiongnu, expand the land in the south of Er."

Zang Hong's face darkened. "According to Ming Ting's words, Xiaojing did the right thing?"

Jia Kui laughed. "Whether Xiaojing did the right thing is debatable, but there is one thing I agree with."

"Which point?"

"This disgruntled person is not the young master."

Zang Hong's face suddenly changed, and he didn't speak for a while.He wanted to teach Jia Kui a lesson, but Jia Kui taught him a lesson.

-

Jia Kui was very busy, so after sitting for a while, he left.

After Zang Hong washed up, he wandered around the room with his hands behind his back, sighing endlessly.

Chen Rong who lived next door heard his sigh and knew that he was worried, so he came over with a pot of milk tea.

"Ziyuan, try this milk tea. It's Hedong's specialty. I haven't seen it anywhere else. It tastes really good."

Zang Hong looked at Chen Rong with flickering eyes. "Shijun, what do you think of Zhou Yafu?"

Chen Rong poured a cup of milk tea and handed it to Zang Hong. "Tea can cure diseases, but it is bitter. Milk can nourish health, but it is fishy. Tea and milk complement each other, and the taste is excellent."

Zang Hong took it in his hand, but didn't drink it, his brows were tightly frowned. "You also think what Jia Kui said is reasonable?"

Chen Rong took a sip of the milk tea. "Ziyuan, a gentleman is as gentle as jade. Zhou Yafu's actions are indeed suspected of being domineering by powerful ministers. As the Taifu, he taught the crown prince Liu Rong, how could he not know that Liu Rong's talent is not as good as Xiaowu? The so-called dispute between the elders and the younger is really true. Unconvincing."

Zang Hong made a fuss, and was about to get angry when Chen Rong raised his hand to stop it.

"Ziyuan rests his anger for a while, and listen to me. The reason why you are so worried about this is probably not because of Jia Kui's comment on Zhou Yafu, but because of Xiaojing's sentence 'I am not a minister of the young master'. With all due respect, Today, the son is also the young master, and has strong opinions, which cannot be controlled by the ministers. If not, the ministers and ministers would not stay in Taiyuan, separated from the emperor by thousands of miles."

Zang Hong couldn't bear it anymore, and said sharply: "So, Shi Jun also agrees with the emperor's arbitrary decision, and the position of the public minister is just empty?"

Chen Rong looked at the furious Zang Hong and sighed. "Ziyuan, if it wasn't for the emperor's arbitrary decision and the vacant position of the public minister, I am afraid that Yuan Shao has entered the court and ruled, and this world will no longer be dominated by the big man. Do you really hope to get there?"

Zang Hong suddenly choked.

Chen Rong patted Zang Hong on the back. "At an extraordinary time, treat extraordinary people. Ziyuan, think deeply about it."

-

Cao Ang and his entourage rushed to Meiji and asked to see the emperor immediately.

Liu Xie met them soon.

Looking at Cao Ang, who is busy in the world, but full of energy, with a straight waist, Liu Xie is very satisfied.Compared with Xiahoudun's son Xiahouchong and Xiahouyuan's son Xiahouxi, Cao Ang is much stronger in terms of mental state and physical fitness.

No wonder Mrs. Ding quarreled with Cao Cao all her life because of him, and refused to forgive until she died.

If it wasn't for Cao Cao being too violent and suffering a big defeat in Wancheng, causing Cao Ang to die unexpectedly, Cao Wei would not die for three generations.

Well now, Cao Ang, Jia Xu, and Zhang Xiu have become colleagues, so they won't die so early.

Of course, Cao Cao's hegemony was also blown away by the butterfly's wings. Now Cao Cao is focused on saving his life, and has no intention of taking in a wife.

"Come here on horseback?" Liu Xie cut to the chase.

Xia Houchong and Xia Houheng's legs were almost ringed, and they couldn't stand still tremblingly.

"Yes." Cao Ang bowed his hands in salute. "Xun Yin took care of him and arranged a few good horses, otherwise the minister wouldn't be able to come so fast."

"How are you riding?"

"I have learned riding and shooting from my father since I was a child, but my talent is dull and not good."

"Well, let's take a trip to Liangzhou with me, and see the great man's thousands of miles of rivers and mountains."

Cao Ang agreed loudly, but Xia Houchong and Xia Houheng changed their faces.They rushed here from Hedong, and they were already half dead from exhaustion. If they followed the emperor to Liangzhou, would they still come back alive?

But as protons, they obviously had no room to bargain, and could only follow Cao Ang to take orders.

Liu Xie asked about the situation in Kanto, and learned that Xiahoudun was appointed as the prefect of Yingchuan, and Xiahouyuan was appointed as the prefect of Chenliu. They were not suitable to be the prefect of Henan for the time being, so he asked Cao Ang for his opinion and asked him who else would be suitable.

Seeing that the emperor intended to hand over Henan County to his father Cao Cao, Cao Ang couldn't ask for it. After thinking for a while, he made a suggestion.
