    In late February of the fifth year of Jian'an in the Han Dynasty, Zhong Yao returned to Yanzhou and reported the details of his trip to Luoyang to Cao Cao. Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun You, Chen Qun, Liu Ye, Xin Pi and others who heard about it in the tent were also shocked and embarrassed.  The letter was silent for a long time.  | Although Deng Ji acted against the world, his behavior could be called selfless. No matter how you say it, spreading it would be detrimental to Cao Cao and the princes of the world.  With such decentralization of power in Sizhou, it is not just one family that benefits. If the wealthy Yanzhou family wants to maintain its existing privileges, it is completely impossible for them to switch to Sizhou. Dong Zhao said: "The system of Sizhou should be kept secret and not announced to the people!"  The reaction was exactly the same as that of Yuan Shao's subordinates. Cao Cao was silent for a long time before sighing: "I will report this to the emperor!" If the soldiers and people learn about Sizhou's new system, I am afraid that all the princes in the world will be despised and laughed at, but above the princes, Deng  When Ji proclaimed himself emperor and established a new system, the people most affected and hated should be the Han royal family.  Cao Cao reported this matter to the emperor, and the emperor's anger since he was forced to confer the title of King of Qin was immediately transferred - the national thief Deng Jixing did this. If it spread widely, he would become a saint in his own family, but in front of the people of the world, he would  The centuries-old authority of the Han Dynasty had been so humiliated that it had no place to stand. How could he, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, not be filled with hatred?  How could the Emperor of Han still have a chance to revive the Han Dynasty?  By comparison, the Cao thief is still forgivable, but the Deng thief is more hateful.  What he did after that was exactly the same as Yuan Shao. Cao Cao also asked his subordinates to spread the news that Deng Ji, the traitor, wanted to change the Han Dynasty and proclaim himself emperor and establish a new dynasty. As for the system of the new Yuan Dynasty, there is no comment.  Deng Ji, a traitor to the country, is about to establish a country, and the fighting among the Han officials cannot stop.  At the end of February, the Hebei army had begun to launch an offensive. Chen Lin was ordered to write a letter to spread all over the world, blaming Cao Cao for his crimes, and Yuan Shao raised the flag of the Qing Dynasty.  Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Shiling, led 10,000 troops from Qingzhou to attack Beihai County.  ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª The farmers in the fields around Gucheng are busy. There are few official and temple affairs these days, but they are much more relaxed.  After lunch.  Expecting nothing to happen today, Zhu Ao came out from home.  Walk along the street towards the south of the city.  In front of the house next to the old elm tree, a woman was spreading chaff to feed the chickens. When she saw Zhu Ao, she started to call the chickens "coo-coo-coo".  Zhu Ao looked at her and walked into the house.  The door to the main hall inside was also closed. Zhu Ao walked over and opened the door. Several people inside immediately stood up and greeted him with smiles: "Here comes Gongcheng!" Zhu Ao nodded.  First, he greeted the old man at the main seat: "Uncle Ninth!" The old man said "hmm" and asked Zhu Ao: "Is there a letter from General Guo today?" Zhu Ao shook his head: "I don't know what is being discussed in Luoyang City, but General Guo is ten  If I don't come back for the rest of the day, I will definitely go to Gucheng!" The old man sighed softly: "The Zhu family is not a common people, and there is no place for us to live in Henan. I only regret that there are no outstanding people in the clan.  He has just come out, and all his savings have been lost in Heishan. If you go to Yanzhou alone, you will not be treated well. You must be brought by General Guo to have a chance of success!" Someone in the room interjected: "Luoyang is in the east, I'm afraid.  If General Guo doesn't come back to Gucheng to take care of us, he can go to Yanzhou on his own!" Another person objected: "General Guo attaches great importance to Gongcheng, so he shouldn't be like this." He glanced at the house as if he hadn't heard what others said.  The people with flattering eyes were a little disdainful, but they just said respectfully to the old man on the throne: "If General Guo defectes to the East, he will not abandon me! I just don't know what happened in Luoyang, which has delayed it so far!" Zhu's family  Originally they were just a small clan in Bingzhou, but their ancestors were good at management, which led to them buying more and more land.  The clan is extremely rich, and the clansmen have enjoyed a lot before.  Not many people are willing to learn real skills.  The Black Mountain thieves robbed most of the family property and followed Guo Yuan southward to more than 20 households in Sizhou.  Except for Zhu Ao, who was the county magistrate of Gucheng, only one other person was elected as the county magistrate of Henan County, a neighboring county. None of the other soldiers and masters were elected. The gap between the front and back was so huge that the people of the tribe were naturally lost.  Having lost their tribesmen, tenant farmers, and their delicate skin and tender meat, the tribesmen could not bear the hardships of farming in Sizhou.  Zhu Ao also has no good impressions of these tribesmen who only hope to gain wealth and honor by relying on others. There were no high-ranking officials in the Zhu family's ancestors, and now there is only one person in his family who can barely support the situation. The tribesmen can rely on Guo Yuandong to join Yanzhou and get Cao Mengde's award.  Household goods, at most, are only the lowest ninth grade.  Cao Mengde's nine-grade method is based on the contribution of talents. If there are no more talents in the next generation, it will definitely fall into the wrong grade. I wonder what they are expecting.  However, family is bigger than the country. Thinking about the exclusive resources of the clan in the early years and the dissatisfaction of being able to only serve as a small county magistrate, Zhu Ao did not want to live in Sizhou for a long time. It was only after Guo Yuanben persuaded him that he made up his mind.  To leave.  The clan members gathered at Uncle Jiu's house to wait for the news about Zhu Ao. Since they had not received Guo Yuan's letter, nothing could be done during the discussion. A few people in the room chatted for a few words and prepared to leave.  No??The woman who was feeding the chickens outside called out to the chickens again. The old man had a very good ear and said, "I think this is fair!" It could also be that an outsider came, and everyone in the hall kept silent.  .  After a while, another person opened the door of the inner hall and entered. As expected, he wished Ji and Zhu justice (Note).  He was the other one selected from the Zhu clan besides Zhu Ao. However, during the interview, he was not as good as Zhu Ao in politics, so he was reluctantly selected as a civil servant and was assigned to the neighboring county of Henan County.  Zhu Ji's family has moved to Henan County and is no longer in Gucheng. I think there are not many things going on in the official temple of Henan County today, or it may be his turn to take a break, so he can come over.  Zhu Ji came in, and several people in the room also greeted him, but their attitude towards Zhu Ao was a bit colder than before. After all, in the past, county magistrates were only minor officials, and county officials were even more humble.  Zhu Ji couldn't get along with Guo Yuan again.  The tribe members are like this. For Zhu Ao, Zhu Ji is one of the few people in the tribe who can help. Unlike those losers who can only sit and wait for death, they are more enthusiastic than others.  Zhu Ji first saluted the old man on the throne, then met with all the brothers, and finally asked: "Is there a letter from General Guo?" Everyone shook their heads, Zhu Ji frowned, and said to Zhu Ao: "Brother is the county magistrate.  , can you find out what's going on in Luoyang? If the governor of Guanzhong and the general return, they must pass through Henan County. I haven't seen anyone return to the west yet!" Zhu Ao explained: "I don't know! But in the past, General Guo was in Bingzhou.  Everything is done according to my plan, and I can still be used elsewhere. If the general wants to move east, he will not forget me and will not do it himself. Don't be anxious about justice, and just feel at ease in Henan.  When you take office, don't let the matter leak out. I will send someone to call you before leaving." Zhu Ji came here to inquire about the news and learned that Guo Yuan had not returned for more than ten days.  Zhu Ao didn't know either. He was afraid that something would happen at the official temple tomorrow morning and he would have to rush back to Henan County.  Zhu Ji was about to leave when the woman outside the door suddenly called the chicken "cuckoo" again.  Today, as luck would have it, people always come when the party is about to leave, but there are only a few people in the clan. The key ones are already in Uncle Jiu's house, and now I can't guess who will come again.  Uncle Jiu is afraid that he is an outsider.  Urgently ordering everyone: "Silence!" The visitor opened the door panting, and everyone in the Zhu family felt relieved and recognized that it was Zhu Ao's second son, who was only nine years old.  The family knew that he was going to Uncle Jiu's house, but he usually didn't come to look for him. Zhu Ao asked: "What's the matter?" His son said anxiously: "Father, General Guo is at home!" Hearing this, everyone in the Zhu family was shocked.  Qi stood up excitedly: "Really?" Without waiting for Zhu'ao'er to answer, Jiu Shu immediately said: "Gongcheng, go home as soon as possible. I'll wait for General Guo's wishes. Come and sue me sooner or later!" Some people in the clan find it difficult.  Waiting: "Why don't I go with you!" The old man glared and cursed: "Idiot! Don't you know that there are many people and it's confusing? If you let it out at this time, it will endanger General Guo. How can he like to see many people?" He scolded the man, and nine  The uncle thought about it again and said to Zhu Jida: "Just go with us!"  Go out and go.  When he returned to Zhu Ao's house, Guo Yuan was waiting in the courtyard with more than ten guards. His face was red when he saw Zhu Ao returning home.  Regardless of others, he pulled him over and said, "It's official!" Zhu Ao didn't know why he was so excited.  The scene in the courtyard can be seen on the street, and Guo Yuan's personal guards are also there.  It was not a place where he could talk, so he first pointed to Zhu Ji and introduced vaguely: "This brother of my clan also wants to follow the general!" After the introduction, he wanted to drag Guo Yuan into the hall to talk, but he didn't want Guo Yuan to pull away, so he said: "I am only here for you.  Lord Deng¡¯s ministers are no longer abandoned!¡± Zhu Ao and Zhu Ji were stunned. Guo Yuan pointed to the jujube tree in the courtyard and said, ¡°It¡¯s cool under the tree. Let¡¯s talk here!¡±  Go to the jujube tree and tell the contents of Luoyang's discussion one by one.  After lunch, it was the free time after finishing the day's work. People were coming and going on Gucheng Street. Many people heard the words "I don't believe this happened" and "This is true" coming from the courtyard of the magistrate's house from time to time.  Waiting for loud exclamations and questions.  By the time Guo Yuan finished recounting what happened in Luoyang for more than ten days, the ink was already exhausted.  Guo Yuan said again: "How lucky I am to meet this sage of our time! I have confessed in front of Mr. Deng that my uncle and uncle wanted to recruit each other, and I have sworn to never betray him! I only didn't tell you about the acquittal. This is the righteousness of friends."  , the Zhu family may be able to decide on their own.¡± After saying that, Guo Yuan resigned: ¡°My lord is scheduled to ascend the throne on the first day of the sixth lunar month, and soon it will be announced to the world. A certain area under his jurisdiction is a strategic point for the three auxiliaries. I am afraid of causing trouble, so I dare not stay away for a long time.  Return. Since I have sworn to serve the Lord to the death, I have to take my leave first." He rushed out and left on the night journey.  When Guo Yuan left, Zhu Ao and Zhu Ji looked at each other as if they were in a dream., it is still hard to believe the possibility of his previous words.  After a while, Zhu Ao clapped his legs and said: "General Guo will not go east again! It's fair to say that we will sue Uncle Jiu immediately and ask the clan merchants to stop!" As he spoke, Zhu Ao ran out of the hospital and found Zhu Ji.  Still in a daze, he shouted urgently: "Justice, hurry up!" Zhu Ji stared at him in a daze, until Zhu Ao stamped his feet anxiously, then he spoke: "Brother, please go and discuss the whereabouts with Uncle Jiu and the clansmen. I will return to Henan County one day."  "We will know the truth of what General Guo said in a few days. If it is true, please don't sue me again when I leave. Please go and say goodbye." After saying that, he left Zhuao's house and stepped on the moon.  And go.  Both Guo Yuan and Zhu Ji were suddenly like this, leaving Zhu Ao alone in a daze at the door of the house.  Without Guo Yuan¡¯s support, the Zhu family ultimately did not dare to take the risk and leave.  After the discussion in Luoyang was completed, the civil and military officials from various places returned to their own jurisdictions, spread the new system of the Yuan Dynasty downwards, and ordered the meritorious citizens of each county to return home, preparing to vote for the village elders.  The two states were shocked when they heard the news. Not long after, everyone in the world learned that Deng¡¯s thieves wanted to proclaim themselves emperor and establish themselves as emperor. Countless scholars and people who still harbored feelings for the Han Dynasty cursed loudly.  After the partial general Duan Xuan left Luoyang and returned to Wuguan, he recommended the scholar Dong Yu to serve as an official.  Note: "Zhu Ao" has a name but no name in the history, "Zhu Gongdao" has a name but no name, so the names "Zhu Ao" and "Zhu Gongdao" are made up by the author.  (To be continued.)
