Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the mid-autumn month of October, people come and go on the wide stone arch bridge of Baqiao. As the main passage from Chang'an City to Guandong, Baqiao bears the main logistics pressure to Chang'an. The Shaofu Han Anguo specially renovated and reconstructed Chang'an's face project.  , The brand-new Baqiao has a slight gap that allows large carriages to travel side by side, and there are sidewalks on both sides of the bridge.  ¡û Just beside the Ba Bridge, the young students said goodbye to their parents and left on foot carrying heavy boxes and cages. The wife held her young daughter and watched her husband leave with tears in her eyes. The child cried and shouted for his father not to leave. Every time  Every moment there is a play about the farewell of loved ones being staged beside the Ba Bridge. How many people have experienced stories of tears streaming down the Ba Bridge and breaking willows to send off their loved ones.  Also by the Ba Bridge, not far away, a strong man with a big beard knelt and kowtowed in front of the white-haired old man. More than 20 men, women and children from the same family gathered together to tell each other the pain of separation. A young girl came out of a carriage.  Jumping up and down, rushing into her mother's arms and dancing with joy, it was the laughter and tears of family reunion.  Some people look back at Baqiao when they left their hometown, and some people come to Baqiao to celebrate returning home. A stone bridge is filled with ice and fire.  An inconspicuous blue-black carriage stopped by the roadside. A young scribe in plain clothes got out of the carriage and looked east. Standing next to him was a young man with a serious expression. The two of them were waiting for someone.  "Look, that's Zhao Yu, the Captain of Zhisu." "The Captain of Zhisu is in charge of food, wages and military supplies. He is a senior official with a rank of two thousand shi. It's amazing to see that he is less than thirty years old!" "Next to him  That person seems to be Zhang Tang, the Da Nong Prime Minister. Although his official position is not as good as the former, his status is not inferior at all. I heard that he is the most respected person in the Da Nong Ling's mansion. Apart from the Da Nong Ling, he has the highest status.  " "How do you say this?" "If you look at the resume of Da Nongcheng, you will know that Zhang Tang is an official under Shaofu. He is responsible for the minting of new money. " "This is extraordinary.  What a big deal. "Shaofu Han Anguo is nothing more than that." "Stupid, have you heard of the former Shaofu Cao Shi?" "Ah! He is actually a disciple of Pingyang Hou," Zhang Tang said proudly.  Brother, did you hear that? In the ten years since Hedong turned to Hexi, there was also a time when we were all-powerful in the capital Chang'an." "Brother, please be cautious. We are gaining momentum, but do you know how many people we have offended behind our backs and how many people are trying to kill us?  Where are you and I going to die?" Zhao Yu said earnestly: "Have you forgotten what happened to the envoy last time?" Zhang Tang became furious at the mention of the unfortunate incident: "I am a villain, Taiwei Tian.  " "We don't have military positions, and the Taiwei's suppression of us is not obvious yet. It was just as it should be when he attacked you last time. He couldn't deal with the monarch, and I can also be effective against you. After all, we are the wings of the monarch.  "Zhao Yu had a heavy heart. He had been promoted to a middle-level official in the palace and was doing very well. Suddenly he was transferred to the military position and was transferred to the military position. In name, he was under the jurisdiction of the Taiwei.  This shows that Tian Fu's thoughts of fighting Cao Cao have not been extinguished and his treacherous intention has not died.  Cao Shi was fighting on the northern border, and the political power in the capital was severely compressed. It was also known to everyone that the emperor intended to change the chief officers of the northern and southern armies.  The meritorious princes were uneasy, and the relationship between the emperor and Cao Shi became very delicate, especially since Cao Shi continued to make great achievements on the border.  At this juncture, no one knows the emperor's attitude, let alone when the next wave of political turmoil will occur.  The residents of Chang'an are not lacking in political sensitivity.  Many people secretly bet on the winning rates of both sides, and many supported the meritorious princes.  There are more supporters of favored relatives and favored relatives. It is an open secret that the emperor intends to promote favored relatives and favored relatives. The most obvious point is that Cao Shi's identity has transformed from the traditional favored official to a hero. The young man who made the emperor obey his advice has become a conqueror of the south and the north.  The more credit a war general has, the more barriers there will be. The neutral bureaucrats are worried about whether Marquis Pingyang's continued meritorious deeds will overwhelm the master.  Zhang Tang didn't want to talk about the annoying topic. He looked up and paced irritably for a long time. Suddenly he heard: "Here we come!" More than a hundred knights came from the east, which caused a sensation. They only wore casual clothes. Each knight carried a long sword on his waist.  Bows and arrows, the fierce aura hidden in the cold expression spurted out, and the pedestrians naturally gave way to the passage. At a glance, it was clear that such a horse team was no ordinary person, and most people looked at the passing knights with respect.  "Junhou! Brother Junyu! You are finally back." Cao Shi nodded: "There are many people here and it is not suitable to stay for a long time. Let's go to the city." Entering Weiyang Palace to hand over errands, it happened to catch up with the emperor's inspection of Guanzhong.  The emperor has always attached great importance to the security of Guanzhong. He will inspect Guanzhong every spring and autumn, and will also visit Guandong every few years. The kidnapping of the Shaofu in the past few years has made the Neishi Mansion lose face. The emperor has further strengthened the control of Guanzhong.  According to the intensity of control, the east and west new cities in Chang'an City are the key areas of concern, and the outsiders in the counties in Guanzhong are?It is also a key area.  The emperor went on a tour, and Prime Minister Dou Ying acted as government official. He personally met with Cao Shi and praised him for his ability as a commander in defeating the Xiongnu. He also mentioned the emperor's reward for him. Cao Shi smiled and responded with neither excitement nor indifference. The two of them were neither salty nor indifferent.  He said goodbye with polite words.  After leaving Weiyang Palace and reuniting, the two of them held a banquet at Dongshi Restaurant to cleanse themselves.  The restaurant dishes in Xinshi are more exquisite and delicious than before, vaguely comparable to the level of Pingyang Hou's, and many new dishes have been derived. It can be seen that the new things brought by Pingyang Hou's are gradually being accepted by the times. Perhaps in another ten years, Pingyang Hou's  The new things in the government are no longer eye-catching.  The four friends at the wine table each had their own thoughts. After three rounds of wine and five dishes, they realized that they were a little bit cold. Zhang Tang raised a glass to congratulate: "Congratulations to the king for defeating the Xiongnu in Yinshan. The imperial court granted 5,000 households and 4,000 gold coins."  "The reward is not easy!" Cao Shi sighed: "I can hear the fighting in the court at the border of northern Xinjiang. In order to show off the ugly Yinmao, I did not hesitate to let the heroes be here."  I really don¡¯t know how to evaluate them after they stayed on the grassland for more than ten days.  No one in the Northern and Southern armies liked Tian Fu. The story of his blind command in Yanmen County spread throughout Chang'an City with the soldiers of the Northern Army. Tian Fu's personal reputation suffered a lot. Seeing that it was impossible to form his own faction in the army.  , Tian Fu chose to show his face in a bachelor's manner, just to add trouble to the Northern and Southern armies, and to make the life of Cao Shi, the cavalry general, uncomfortable.  Therefore, he insisted on delaying the imperial court's reward for the Battle of Yinshan, and tried his best to lower the reward standard to achieve the purpose of disgusting Cao Shi. Anyway, it was impossible for his foreign relatives to truly control the military power, so he might as well take advantage of the opportunity of sitting in the center to suppress the meritorious service.  Hou Group, as for whether the top soldiers are happy or angry, what does it have to do with him?  It's strange that he would care about what civilians think.  The emperor had unusual patience with Tian Fu. Tian Fu was not only the emperor's uncle, but also the most trusted brother of the Queen Mother. Even though Tian Fu often jumped out to find trouble, he was at least better than the mediocre Gaihou Wang Xin and the talentless and incompetent Wang Xin.  Tian Sheng, the Marquis of Zhou Yang in virtue, is too strong. I always want to have a reference to compare with. Tian Sheng, who is more inferior, is always more reliable than Tian Sheng, who is more inferior.  "At least what he did was tolerated by the emperor. It reflected the emperor's thoughts in a worrying way.  Zhao Yu asked: "Prime Minister Dou Ying firmly supports the monarch. Has he reached an alliance with the monarch?" "No, I can probably guess a little bit of his thoughts. It's just that there is no conflict with me for the time being. I can't rule out that he wants to borrow money from me."  My hand suppressed Tian Fu, I can¡¯t bear the blame.¡± The four people raised their glasses and looked at each other with a smile.  Cao Shi was granted a seal of 5,000 households. The number of closed households increased from 37,500 last year to 43,000. The population growth that year was also included in the calculation. The baby boom in Hedong did not need to be too different from that in Guanzhong. Cao Shi's territory could soon catch up.  Border counties accounted for almost one-fifth of the counties in Hedong, and no one in the world knew how powerful Pingyang Marquis was.  Since the founding of the country in the early Han Dynasty, there have been only a few families with more than 10,000 households. The founding princes and kings had 50,000 households, and powerful ones such as King Liu Fei of Qi had hundreds of thousands of households. The 70 counties under his jurisdiction were only smaller than those in Guanzhong.  The Neishi County of the 75 counties was slightly lower than the first line. The number of small princes and kings who were subsequently enfeoffed was about 30,000 to 50,000 households. Cao Shi's number at the end of the year had already exceeded some small princes and kings.  Zhao Junyu was granted the title of Fuyang Marquis for his two battles, and was granted the title of 2,500 households. The belated reward was well deserved. In the Battle of Yanmen, he was promoted to the Marquis of Guannei as a cavalry commander who commanded the war. In the Battle of Yinshan, he was promoted as the main leader.  The status of cavalry general is promoted to the rank of meritorious princes, and the true princes no longer need to envy others.  Zhou Zuoche and Guan Qiang made slightly more contributions. By virtue of their leadership, they were able to seal 2,000 households. Chen He also gained 1,000 households. Zhou Zuoche, the smallest of them all, had almost 20,000 households. Guan Qiang  The Chen He family has more than 20,000 households, and the Chen He family has an even more powerful 37,000 households. At this level, Yi Feng is somewhat of a small matter. The emperor's statement to Yi Feng is a big deal. At least it proves that they are qualified successors and have not insulted the reputation of their ancestors.  .  Zhang Tang and Zhao Yu were extremely envious. They both dreamed of becoming princes. It was not that they became more philistine, but that they wanted to achieve Zhang Liang and Xiao He's achievements. Everyone living in this era wanted to be the second Zhang Liang.  Liang Xiao He, Han Xin and Cao Shen, otherwise there would be no story of Li Guang asking for a title.  A few days later, the emperor summoned Cao Shi alone in Weiyang Palace.  "General Chariot and Cavalry, what do you think of the name Shuofang County?" "Your Majesty's name is very good. I can't think of a more suitable name than this." Liu Che looked unbelieving: "I remember you mentioned the old Qin Jiuyuan  County, wouldn't it be more suitable than my Shuofang County?" Cao Shi said: "Jiuyuan is just a traditional place name and cannot reflect His Majesty's attention and importance.I hope that giving a new name can boost morale and encourage people. I think Shuofang is very good.  " "You always convince me every time, then call me Shuo Fang!  " "It is not the minister who convinces your majesty, but your majesty who convinces himself.  " Liu Che is very satisfied. He likes this kind of conversation. He used to have no backbone, and the way he talks now is in line with his identity. "Shuofang County has been settled like this. I will order the county soldiers from Neijun to go north.  Guard, the people in the border county will build the city and build the villas in the spring next year. Can you tell me how to stabilize the Shuofang line as soon as possible?  "(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
