Not long after Zhen Yao entered the Chen family, Mi Fang hurriedly ran to Mi Zhu and said hurriedly, big brother, I just heard from my subordinates that my lord has taken Xu You to the Chen family. Now I guess everyone has talked to the Chen family. Talked. "
When Mi Zhu heard this, Zhengyu's right hand holding the pen froze. My lord just entered the city today. I should have a lot of things to arrange for me at the moment, but why did he take Xu You to the Chen family? Could it be that the Chen family was really so important? Mi Zhu couldn't help but feel a hint of bitterness in her heart. Although he was the first to seek refuge with Zhen Yao, he was not a very important figure in the eyes of his lord.
"Brother, you are." Mi Zhu didn't speak, and Mi Fang, who was waiting on the side, was very anxious, and kept urging: If the lord has a discussion with the Chen family, I'm afraid that Xuzhou will still be led by his Chen family. How can I wait for all the hard work? Not in vain¡±
Mi Zhu was also a little confused at this moment. He put down the things in his hands and stood up and walked around the room. When he finally looked out the window, his brows jumped up slightly. He struggled for a long time before he called Mi Fang to his side. You can act like this if you have an ear canal, remember. Live, if you are seen through, tell the truth. Even if the lord is displeased, he will not argue with you."
"This," Mi Fang listened to her elder brother's words in her heart, but an unnatural look appeared on her face. The elder brother has always loved her little sister, and today she came up with this plan. Besides, my little sister has never seen the lord before, what if?"
Hearing this, Mi Zhu waved his sleeves and said that there was no chance, since the Mi family had already moved closer to Jizhou, there was no reason to retreat. As for the younger sister, it is her fate if she is really favored by the lord, and she will not be humiliated." At this point, no matter how unintelligent he is, Mi Zhu will be used as a political victim. Even if the Mi family changes again, they will still behave the same way. With the shadow of businessmen seeking profit.
While they were chatting in Mi Zhu's room, Zhen Yao was drinking tea in the presence of the old god of the Chen family. Chen Gui, the old fox, did not come out to receive him. Only Chen Deng, who had just become the head of the Chen family, and his younger brother were accompanying him. The four of them sat on opposite sides of the living room, drinking tea and chatting but avoiding the important and trivial. For half an hour, they were still talking in vain, without mentioning anything about Xuzhou.
As the successor of Mr. Chen Gui, Chen Deng¡¯s skills in cultivating Qi are unparalleled. For half an hour, he accompanied Zhen Yao and talked about everything from the tea ceremony to food, from food to calligraphy, and from calligraphy to astronomy, which was quite extensive. However, everyone here knows that we can talk at these times. The first thing to discuss now is how Xuzhou should be governed now.
As the head of the Chen family, Chen Deng is personally more optimistic about Cao Cao and Zhen Yao among the princes of the Han Dynasty. However, the Mi family was the first to have the idea of ????Beitou Jizhou, and with Chen Deng's arrogance, he wanted to help Cao Cao. Bundle. Now that Cao Cao and Sun Jian have been defeated, it has become a fact that Zhen Yao is in charge of Xuzhou, but Chen Deng cannot be the first to say this, because whoever speaks first means that he will become passive.
" Chen Deng is indeed a rare hero in Xuzhou. It's no wonder that Chen Gui passed the title of head of the family to him when he was still healthy. This determination alone is not something ordinary people can possess. It stands to reason that the entire Xuzhou is now controlled by Zhen Yao, and the Chen family has already lost to the Mi family, but the young family head in front of him is not panicked at all.
The tea cup in his hand has been cold for an unknown amount of time. Zhen Yao held it in his hand and couldn't help playing with it. After a while, he said, "Yao heard that Chen Jiayuan was extraordinary in elegance. When he saw it today, he knew that there was no real person under his fame." I visited the gate today. Compared with Yuanlong, he already knew the purpose of my visit. "
Chen Deng opened his eyes slightly, nodded and smiled, saying that he knew what the state pastor meant, but now that Xuzhou has been included in the state pastor's bag, why bother? "
Zhen Yao slowly shook his head and Yuan Long must also be aware of the xenophobia of the Xuzhou gentry. I am going to summon Xuzhou¡¯s old ministers tomorrow, do you understand? The Chen family is a noble family with deep roots in Xuzhou but is therefore imprisoned in one place. I wonder what Yuan Long has on this? "
Hearing this, Chen Deng's right hand trembled undetectably. He suppressed the shock and excitement in his heart, coughed twice and asked, "I wonder if there is anything the Chen family can do for Zhou Mu?" Although my father is old, he is still somewhat humble in Xuzhou. "
Zhen Yao also laughed after hearing this. As long as you publicly worship me as master tomorrow, after the incident in Xuzhou, you can take your father and brother with me to Wuji. ¡ª¡ªPiaotian Literature¡ª¡ªMobile Novel Site Of course, I am not asking you to give up your roots in Xuzhou. "
Chen Deng's mind became active at this moment. Zhen Yao's intention was obviously to support the family further, and what he had to pay was to tie the entire Chen family to Jizhou's chariot. This is a gamble, the bet is whether Zhen Yao will ascend to that high position.
Chen Deng did not answer immediately, and Zhen Yao would not force him to agree now. He put down the tea cup and stood up. Zhen Yao shook his head and sighed. That was all. Yao had just entered the city and had many things to do. Ziyuan, let¡¯s go. "
After Zhen Yao took Xu You out of the Chen Mansion, the old man Chen Gui walked out of the side hall. It was obvious that the old man had heard the previous conversation. Chen Deng looked at Zhen Yao's disappearing back, but lowered his head and asked his father, where should the Chen family go??? "
"Since you have considered it, there is no need to ask me, old man." Although Chen Gui 'eavesdropped' on all the conversations, he had no intention of expressing his opinion. You are now the head of the Chen family, and the direction of the Chen family is in your hands. . Whether it is glory or decline, it is all up to you to choose. If you ask me everything, it is better to let the Chen family decline from now on. "
Although Chen Gui¡¯s words are beautiful, they are also based on his strength. If he were younger, Chen Gui would never let him control the direction of the Chen family. It was also the first time that Chen Deng faced such a problem. What he lacked was not vision or decision-making, but confidence. Chen Gui's words undoubtedly gave him confidence, and Chen Deng no longer hesitated.
Not long after Zhen Yao walked out of the Chen Mansion, he 'broke into' another person's home, which was Sun Qian's Mansion in Tancheng. It was said to be a mansion, but in fact it was just a relatively spacious house. When Sun Qian, who was struggling at home, heard that the famous Zhen Yao was visiting, he naturally would not refuse, so he opened the door and welcomed him into the house.
Sun Qian invited Zhen Yao into his courtyard, then bowed and said, "I don't know that Zhou Mu is here." Sun Qian, his student, was polite. "
"No need to be polite." Zhen Yao looked at this man who had followed Liu Bei for most of his life and could be called a master of diplomacy. His first impression was that he looked very handsome. After talking to him in his courtyard, it was found out that it was not unreasonable for him and Jian Yong to occupy high positions in the Shu Han Dynasty in history, at least not as Liu Da'er thought before.
Sun Qian is very measured. I didn¡¯t hear a few empty words from him after talking with him for half an hour. Almost everything he said was explained from a pragmatic perspective. This kind of talent is what Zhen Yao values. Even if Sun Qian's understanding is very one-sided and his vision is not long-term, he still has his strengths.
"I wonder if you would like to come out to help me?" Zhen Yao talked for a long time, and finally stated the purpose of this trip. If you are willing to give in, Yao can now promise to take up a job with you. "Although 'engaged' seems to be a small official, but in Jizhou, and as an official who follows Zhen Yao, this weight is not low. After all, Guo Jia still holds the official position of offering wine.
"Zhou Mu personally came to Qian's home to invite him. Qian should follow Zhou Mu." Sun Qian couldn't help but feel happy when he heard that Zhen Yao came to his house to recruit. But the next moment, his face turned gloomy. But the student had not mastered his studies and was not even qualified to become a disciple. How could he help the state pastor to hold an official position? If Zhou Mu does not give up, the student is willing to study hard at home for three years and will definitely go to Wuji after three years. "
Zhen Yao couldn¡¯t help but frown when he heard this. He still has to study for three years? Brother Pig will grow up after three more years of studying. Although he was a little dissatisfied, Zhen Yao was still quite interested in what Sun Qian said. Is he so arrogant? Although Sun Qian is not a genius, he is still a high-level scribe. He is not even allowed to become a disciple. He immediately asked who the teacher you mentioned was? "
"Zheng Xuan, Zheng everyone, Zhou Mu should have heard about it." Sun Qian directly reported the name of a great god, making Zhen Yao stunned and couldn't help but nod secretly. If others did not accept Sun Qian as his disciple, Zhen Yao would still think that this person was setting up a show, but if it were replaced by Zheng Xuan, it seems not impossible. Although this great god has not died, his reputation is well-known throughout the Han Dynasty.
For example, in Zhen Yao's Wuji Academy, Hu Zhao was regarded as a talented person among the younger generation and became famous in the Central Plains. Most of the children of the gentry in the Central Plains were aware of his talent and learning. Cai Yong and Tao Qian became masters in their respective fields, and their every move could influence the great Han Shilin. As for Zheng Xuan, his every move not only affected Shilin, but also all the princes and even the emperor as far away as Chang'an, were extremely concerned.
Over the years, Zhen Yao had heard that many people had recruited him, including Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and even the Dong thief who lived in Chang'an. In the name of the emperor, he wanted to invite him to go west again and come to serve. The one he was given was the high position of the Three Dukes. However, after so many years of suffering and displacement, this old man has no intention of moving and has been living a semi-reclusive life in Xuzhou.
Although so much news about Zheng Xuan appeared in his mind, it only lasted for a moment. After Zhen Yao digested what Sun Qian said, he heard Sun Qian continue to say. Originally, Yu students would go to Zheng Da's residence every month for advice. Will also explain to students. However, there have been riots in Xuzhou in the past few months, and the Zheng family has refused to enter the city. The students have not seen them for more than a hundred days. "
Zhen Yao couldn't help but nodded. It seemed that if necessary, he would have to go to the place where Old Man Zheng lived in seclusion. Xu You was obviously shocked by what Sun Qian said. After a long time, he said, "I think Brother Sun has misunderstood the Zheng family." I mean, it¡¯s not that Mr. Zheng doesn¡¯t accept you as a disciple, it¡¯s that he no longer accepts you as a disciple. If not, I won¡¯t always explain it to you. "
"What's more, we just talked, and you already know that he is a person with real talent and practical knowledge. How can he let his knowledge be buried in the world? Why not go to visit the Zheng family with my lord in a few days. If the Zheng family allows you to become an official, Brother Sun But I can¡¯t say no anymore.¡±
Originally, with Xu You¡¯s arrogance, he would not have called himself a brother to a little-known guy like Sun Qian.?. But now his lord obviously wanted the other party to become an official. In order to please Zhen Yao, Xu You put down his arrogance and taught Sun Qian.
Sun Qian¡¯s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he seemed to be over the top. He immediately nodded and said so, which was disrespectful. "At the same time, I couldn't help but feel happy. It's not that Zheng people dislike their shallow knowledge, but they no longer accept disciples. Yes, that must be the case.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbOUT out of the sun, but did not want to cause such a change, Zhen Yao was still thinking after leaving the Sun family, going to look for Zheng Xuan, should he bring some gifts? Is it better to bring fruit or give red envelopes directly?
There was no words all night. When the sky got brighter the next day, Zhen Yao got up from the bed. Looking at Lu Lingqi, who still had her eyes closed and a satisfied look on her face, Zhen Yao's feet felt a little weak. He had just recovered from a serious illness and had a beauty by his side. Naturally, Zhen Yao couldn't help but do what he loved and used all the energy he had accumulated for a long time on the girl from the Lu family.
But he didn¡¯t expect that Lu Lingqi wanted it more than him. It wasn¡¯t enough to accept all the essence he had accumulated for several months, and she even threatened to exploit him. In this way, the two of them flirted on the bed and played until late at night, when Zhen Yao couldn't help but lay down and fell asleep. Lu Lingqi, who had been holding on for a long time, finally breathed a sigh of relief and fell asleep on Zhen Yao's body.
Youdao is that there are only exhausted cows, but there is no damaged land. Looking at the satisfaction on the lips of the girl from the Lu family, Zhen Yao shook his head and pushed back the absurd night he recalled in his mind. There are big things to do today, so get up and eat something first, otherwise your stomach will be empty and you will not have the energy to argue with those old officials in Xuzhou.
When Zhen Yao had a simple breakfast, Mi Zhu also brought a group of Xuzhou disciples to the Prefectural Mufu in time. Hearing that Mi Zhu and others had arrived so early, Zhen Yao couldn't help but frown and thought to himself: Don't these guys sleep in? They haven't had a good rest yet. He muttered like this, but still walked towards the front hall of the State Shepherd's Mansion.
There is a reason why Mi Zhu and others came early. After all, if they wanted to sleep, they had slept enough for a month. Under Mi Zhu's greeting, Zhen Yao wanted to see them today. Who could sleep tonight? So when Zhen Yao came to the front hall, he saw panda eyes, and some people were dozing with their eyes squinted. I want to sleep again.
Sitting on the first seat in the front hall, Zhen Yao opened his mouth and said, "Ahem, I'm Zhen Yao, please be polite." "
"I've seen Zhou Mu." Some of these people were Xuzhou officials who served as Tao Qian, and some were representatives of various families in Tancheng. Except for Mi Zhu, the others called Zhen Yao as "Jizhou Mu".
"My lords, please take a seat." Zhen Yao pointed to the desks on both sides and said with a smile. I invite you all to come here today, but I have something to tell you. You may know that before the death of Taozhou Mu, he sent envoys to Wuji to discuss Wuji matters with Yao. "
"After that, Yao sent Zhang Fei and his generals to come and fight fiercely with Cao Cao and Sun Jian. Now that Sun Cao has retreated, and Taozhou Mu is also driving to the west, how should the affairs of Xuzhou be handled? Everyone in Xuzhou Lord humerus, let¡¯s discuss this now.¡±
As soon as Zhen Yao finished speaking, Mi Zhu stood up and tried to persuade Zhen Yao to take charge of Xuzhou. What he said was nothing more than that Zhen Yao was busy working for Xuzhou and had a lot of hard work. Under Zhen Yao's governance, Xuzhou would be able to make progress. The Han Dynasty's first state is moving forward, which is what everyone here is looking forward to.
After Mi Zhu finished speaking, many family representatives who had been persuaded by him to join Zhen Yao also agreed and formally paid homage to the lord Zhen Yao one by one. Zhen Yao, who was sitting in the first seat, thought that this was just a show, but he responded happily.
Everyone was over, but there was a cold field in the hall. After a while, someone left the case table and asked about the state herd. "
Zhen Yao squinted his eyes and looked at the person who asked the question. This person had introduced himself before. He was a Confucian scholar who was loyal to the Tao family. He seemed to be somewhat famous in Xuzhou, but Zhen Yao had never heard of him in his previous life or in this life. This old name. Seeing him raising such a question, Zhen Yao did not shy away and said to the Tao family, Yao would ask them to return to Wuji with me. "
The implication of Zhen Yao's words is very clear, that is, the Tao family will be fine, but they may not have so much freedom in the future, and they are unlikely to continue to hold official positions. At most, they will become rich. You will have no worries about food and clothing throughout your life.
Hearing Zhen Yao's answer, most people in the room nodded slightly. After all, it would be a big deal to do this. The Tao family's popularity in Xuzhou is huge. Keeping these two "scourges" is tantamount to finding them. Not a big or small trouble.
However, this answer obviously did not satisfy the pedantic Confucian scholar. He raised his head and said, "If Xuzhou Mu thinks that Xuzhou Mu, I will do my best to help." Otherwise, I would rather go back to my hometown and farm."
Zhen Yao laughed from the bottom of his heart when he heard this. He was made angry by this old guy.??Is he still unable to see the current situation clearly? Do you care so much about him, an old man with a gray beard? Are you threatening me? You want to go home and farm, right? Zhen Yao immediately nodded and said since he has this wish, how can Yao take away what others like. Come, give this man a hundred gold pieces and send him back to his hometown to cultivate the land."
Zhen Yao¡¯s attitude of ¡®falling out at once¡¯ frightened many people. Everyone felt guilty when they saw the Confucian scholar with a pale complexion being ¡®invited¡¯ out of the Prefectural Mufu by several soldiers. If we talk later, will Zhen Yao also rush back to his hometown to farm? The more I thought about it, the more likely it was. At this moment, everyone knew that words could not be spoken in a loose manner, and they immediately closed their mouths one by one.
And just when everyone shut up, Chen Deng suddenly walked out, bowed and said, "Rongzhou Mu will not give up, and Deng is willing to serve as a pawn under the lord's account." According to Deng, Xuzhou has been in constant turmoil due to the war in recent months. Many people were neglected in farming, and some were even homeless. They were willing to use 30,000 dan of food stored in their homes to relieve the Lord's worries. "
Good guy, he took out "30,000 shi" of food in one breath. Compared with this news, no one cared about the previous worship of Zhen Yao. Zhen Yao was also 'shocked' by Chen Deng's move, because this was not a request, but something he, Chen Deng, was willing to do.
Zhen Yao licked his chin and thought for a moment, then nodded and said with a smile that Yuan Long had done this, and as countless people were alive, the people of Xuzhou on behalf of Yao thanked him for this kindness. " Saying this, Zhen Yao is also very satisfied with Chen Deng in his heart. If you give up, you will gain. Since Chen Deng can give up like this, he will not suffer a loss. Maybe he should think about what he should give to the Chen family after returning to Wuji. a status.
