The three countries are very nuclear

Chapter 630 Zhong Yao, is there an Old Wang next door to you?

The Zhong family in Yingchuan is also a powerful family. Although it is not comparable to the first-class families such as the Xun family, the Chen family, the Guo family, and the Han family, they are also considered to be well-off and well-known.

As a child of an aristocratic family, Zhong Yao is naturally talented.When he was a teenager, his father ordered him to travel around Yingchuan and surrounding counties in order to make friends and build contacts.

Zhong Yao lived up to expectations, and successfully made a name for himself among the Yingchuan gentry, and even almost made it to the Qing discussion list at that time.

Although he failed to debut at the C position in the end, Zhong Yao promoted Xiaolian anyway, and then he couldn't wait to go to the capital to become a Langguan.

There is a saying that people go to high places and water flows to low places.Zhong Yao had a reputation, so he naturally wanted to turn it into an official position.

This process was also very smooth. After Zhong Yao became a Lang Guan, he was promoted to the magistrate of a large county within a few years, and began his career as an official.

The process of being an official in the Han Dynasty has always been like this. First, you will be a reserve official like Lang Guan, and then you will be released to a local area. After you have achieved political achievements, the official will become bigger and bigger.

When the level of two thousand stones is about to be reached, the general court will conscript them into the court as a Beijing official.

However, the capital's water is very deep, and most people can't grasp it.

But whoever has been in office for several years, some people will always be dismissed and sent to prison, and some will die there. Only a very small number of people can be promoted step by step.When he waits until he is released as an official, he will become a real feudal official, either a prefect of a place or a governor of a state.

Zhong Yao was the magistrate of a large county when he was young. This is a high-ranking official position, which shows that the imperial court attaches great importance to him.If nothing else, he is the kind of talent who can rise step by step.

At that time, Zhong Yao didn't need others to say much, he had already planned his future.

However, there are unpredictable things in the sky, and people have misfortunes and blessings. He was knocked down by a serious illness within two years of being the county magistrate.

He was seriously ill, so naturally he couldn't continue to be an official, so the court dismissed him from his official post.

But Zhong Yao was not discouraged by this, and stayed in Luoyang after he recovered from his illness, hoping to make a comeback.After wasting away for several years, his former fame was finally remembered, so he was recruited by the Three Houses to serve as Tingweizheng, also considered Jiuqing's deputy.

In the end, Huang Tian paid off. After Zhong Yao recovered again, he successfully skipped the stage of serving as a foreign official, and became an official in Beijing, starting the process of his continued struggle.

Just as Zhong Yao was moving towards a bright future visible to the naked eye, he suddenly scored twice, and a series of ups and downs happened.

First came the Yellow Turban Uprising, then He Jin came to power, and then Dong Zhuo rebelled. A series of changes made the court always in turmoil.Especially during the period when Dong Zhuo was in power, even Sangong would kill as soon as he said it, like a pig butcher!
At that time, Zhong Yao was just a small character, but he was lucky enough to escape Dong Zhuo's butcher's knife, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.Later, the emperor moved west to Chang'an, and Li Ru was entrusted by the Lin Dynasty to control the government.

Although personal safety is guaranteed, the world is no longer that world, and Zhong Yao's official career will never be hopeless.

Given the current situation, what's the point of being worshiped as Sangong, not to mention that he is just a little Huangmen servant?
At this time, Zhong Yao was over forty years old.

Knowing that his official career was hopeless, Zhong Yao chose to lie down and practiced calligraphy all day in hiding at home, until Zhang Ji came to visit and packed his whole family to Lin Chao, Zhong Yao was still in a daze.

After learning that it was the emperor's decree to release him to Xuzhou, Zhong Yao suddenly became happy again.

Now there are many heroes, the most powerful is Liu Taiwei who leads Xuzhou Mu, and this year he just defeated Yuan Shao, the fourth generation and third prince, so it can be said that he is in the limelight for a while.

It can be said that this person is the only one who can help the Han Dynasty in the world today.

The person who can change the dynasty is also this person.

Entering Xuzhou as an official by himself is considered a blessing rather than a disaster.

The cold wind outside Tan County is still there, but Zhong Yao's heart is burning, and his eyes are full of longing.

It is rumored that Liu Xuande is a benevolent and enlightened lord, and his chief minister Lin Zichu has the style of an ancient gentleman, a talent that has never been seen in a hundred generations, and even has the talents of Wang Zuo such as Xun Yu and Xun You.

Wen Ruo is an elegant gentleman, and now he is willing to serve Xuzhou, presumably there must be a court full of righteousness, and the atmosphere in the court should be happy and harmonious.

I don't want to be over [-] years old, but the old tree can sprout again, and I can find opportunities in the official career again.

Just as Zhong Yao was looking forward to the future, he saw a 25-year-old young man in a black robe walking out of the city gate from a distance, followed by more than a dozen guards.

After the man walked in, Zhang Ji next to him looked terrified, trotted all the way over, bowed down and said: "The last general will refer to the long history!"

Zhong Yao was greatly surprised by this scene.

Zhang Ji, you are also a heavy-ranked general than Jiuqing, why are you so flattering to this man?
But what he didn't expect was that the soldiers led by Zhang Ji also bowed down and bowed down when they saw this, with extremely respectful expressions, as if it was a matter of course.

All of a sudden, in the vast wilderness, only Zhong Yao stood upright like a flock of chickens.

Lin Chao was not surprised, waved his hands and said with a smile: "General Zhang excuse me."

"Thank you Changshi!"

Zhang Ji bowed his hands solemnly again, and then he dared to get up.

The next moment, Lin Chao turned his attention to Zhong Yao, and said with a smile, "Your Excellency is Zhong Yuanchang in Xialin Zichu?"

Hearing this, Zhong Yao's expression changed, showing shock.

Lin Zichu, who is said to have helped Liu Xuande in his humble beginnings and worked so hard, is so young!
"Meet Lin Changshi!"

Zhong Yao hurriedly cupped his hands.

Seeing this, Lin Chao's expression changed, and he hurriedly saw a suitable opportunity, and grabbed Zhong Yao's hand with lightning speed, taking advantage of the opportunity to swim with his arms.

"You don't need to be courteous, Mr. Zhong. My lord looks forward to Mr. Zhong, just like looking forward to the rain in a drought!"

Feeling the warmth from his hands, hearing Lin Chao's words in his ears, Zhong Yao almost cried without being moved.

People in the world say that Lin Zichu is even an honest gentleman, so they really don't deceive each other!

Zhong Yao choked with sobs and said, "Chang Shi, the lower officials are ordered by the emperor to come to assist the Taiwei. Anything that the lower officials can do, they must be heartbroken, so that they can live up to the Taiwei's kindness!"

"Young Minister Zhong is too polite. My lord is a benevolent Lord. He has always had the ambition to help the world. Now with the help of Minister Zhong, the great cause can be accomplished!"

"Chang Shi Miu praised, I am ashamed to be an official!"

After the two exchanged some business, Lin Chao suddenly said, "Master Zhong, I have a question, but I don't know if I should say it or not?"

"There are orders in the long history, and the lower officials should know everything."

At this time, Zhong Yao was moved by Lin Chao like a bastard, and immediately patted his chest and promised.

"Hehe, it's not a big deal." Lin Chao said with a smile, "But I don't know if Zhong Shilang's house is nearby or not. Is there someone with the surname Wang?"

Zhong Yao:? ? ?
"The lower officials are dull and don't understand the meaning of Chang Shi."

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's nothing, I just asked casually, Zhong Shilang doesn't need to care, let's go, and follow me into the city to meet Xuande Gong!"

It's not that Lin Chao intends to make fun of Zhong Yao, it's just that this fact is a bit strange.

After all, in the original history, Zhong Yao gave birth to his youngest son Zhong Hui at the age of 75!

Giving birth at the age of 75... This should have exceeded the limit of human beings, and it is still in this era. If there is no help from the old Wang next door, Lin Chao would not believe it.

Well, Zhang Changpu, the mother of Zhonghui, has not yet been born. I am afraid that this question will not be answered until decades later.

……

To be honest, for Xuzhou today, Zhong Yao cannot be said to be useless, at least he is dispensable.

The reason why Lin Chao repeatedly asked Li Ru to send this guy over was because he had other uses.

After all, Zhong Yao's calligraphy can be said to be the best in the world, even if he is not yet a master of calligraphy, Cai Yong is the only one who can surpass him in calligraphy.

But old man Cai is getting old, and it is inconvenient for him to do some things by himself.

The most important thing is that in a few years, Zhong Yao will officially surpass Cai Yong and become a calligraphy master at the historical vertical comparison level.

Some things are too important to be written in the best handwriting ever!
As for Zhong Yao's position, Lin Chao had already prepared for him, and asked him to go to Langya County to be the prefect.Such a senior official with a rank of two thousand stones is worthy of him.

With the establishment of the five internal government departments, Xuzhou began a process of highly centralized power, and the power originally belonging to the county guard was greatly reduced.If nothing else, this process will continue.

Centralization is necessary, because to ensure the high-speed operation of the machine called political power, it is necessary to centralize power.

But centralization does not mean dictatorship. Just like the current situation, the political power is all concentrated in the inner government, the power of supervision is all in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the military power is in the Military Government.

Only Liu Bei and Lin Chao can override these three and mobilize all the power.

But can this be called Xuzhou dictatorship?
I'm afraid not.

Everything in the inner government has to be deliberated, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate checks and balances each other. The Military Government has always been a voting center. It can be said that power is most evenly distributed to everyone, and it will not be hindered when it is exercised.

To be precise, power is concentrated in a certain department, not in the hands of one person.

With Lin Chao's ability, that's all he can do so far.

As for myself and Liu Bei who can mobilize all the power with one person.

In a short time, Lin Chao could only solve his own problems.

And the power in Liu Bei's hands... was gradually established by Lin Chao, so Lin Chao planned to wait for the unification of the world before admonishing Liu Bei.

The best result is to limit the power in the hands of the next generation of emperors.

In the age of the rule of man, you cannot expect to be wise kings from generation to generation.

Therefore, if the country is to be extended, the power of the monarchy must be weakened, but it must not be rushed.

As for Zhang Ji, after sending Zhong Yao's wife, children, and children, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he made a request to Lin Chao—he wanted to visit Yushan Academy.

After hearing this sentence, Lin Chao was stunned for a while.

You are a military general in Xiliang, you don't know a lot of big characters, and you want to visit the academy, why bother?
But Zhang Ji clasped his fists and said, "Chang Shi, it's not that he is going to visit the academy, but he was entrusted by the military adviser before leaving, so he dare not refuse to go, and please ask Chang Shi to complete it!"

Well, it really was what Li Ru meant.

Since Dong Zhuo's death, Li Ru has completely lost his sustenance, and now he is willing to help Lin Chao, thanks to Lin Chao's promise to him, supporting him to continue to live.

In the Luoyang Palace in the past, Lin Chao bluntly said that Li Ru had failed. Don't you want to see the day when you succeed?

Later, Lin Chao said that he would build a school palace to reproduce the grand occasion of the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the past.

And this includes the legalist theory passed down in one continuous line of Li Confucianism.

Now that the Yushan Academy has been completed, it is one of the few things in the world that can affect Li Ru's mood.

Thinking about it, Lin Chao smiled and said, "Since that's what he meant, General Zhang might as well go to the academy with me to have a look."

"Thank you Chang Shi!"

Zhang Ji quickly thanked him.

"You're welcome." Lin Chao waved his hand, turned his head and said to Zhang Yun, "Junyi, you will take Zhong Shilang into the city to settle down, and I will accompany General Zhang to the academy for a walk. Oh, by the way, please go to the academy for a while." trip."

When Zhang Ji heard the last sentence, a delighted smile appeared on Zhang Ji's face.

If Li Ru lived for his own beliefs, then Zhang Ji was willing to obey Lin Chao because of his nephew Zhang Xiu.

The two uncles and nephews haven't seen each other for several years, and it is impossible to say that they don't miss each other.

"As ordered!"

Zhang He clasped his fists in response, then turned around and left with Zhong Yao and others.

After the group left, Zhang Ji paid homage to Lin Chao again: "Thank you, Chang Shi, for letting my uncle and nephew meet!"

"You are welcome. General Zhang is loyal to the country. This is what a certain branch should do."

Lin Chao raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation, signaling to chat while walking.

"Speaking of the battle to annihilate Yuan Shao, Boyuan defended Duke Xuande to the death and made many meritorious deeds. In the end, he rushed to the battle and killed Yuan Shao's general Wen Chou. Hou is still not a problem."

Hearing this, Zhang Ji's face became more joyful, and he immediately cupped his fists and bowed again: "Thank you, Chang Shi, for your cultivation."

"You don't need to thank me, this is all thanks to Bo Yuan's sword and gun, not some selfishness." Lin Chao said with a smile, "If such a tiger general can't be named a marquis and worship general, I'm afraid the world will laugh at me for treating heroes poorly in Xuzhou. "

On the way to the academy, Lin Chao told Zhang Ji what had happened to Zhang Xiu in the past few years. Although trivial, this was the best way to win over Zhang Ji.

But Zhang Ji listened very seriously, for fear of missing half a word.

When he reached the entrance of the school, Lin Chao found that Zhang Xiu had already arrived.

After receiving the military order from Lin Chao, Zhang Yun immediately sent his soldiers to the barracks to inform Zhang Xiu.Hearing that it was Lin Chao's order, Zhang Xiu didn't dare to neglect at all, and immediately galloped straight to the academy, but arrived a moment earlier than Lin Chao and Zhang Ji.

After seeing Lin Chao, Zhang Xiu hurried over, cupped his fists and said, "See the Supervising Army!"

Lin Chao pointed at Zhang Ji and smiled at Zhang Xiu: "Bo Yuan is not polite, who do you think this is?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu followed the direction Lin Chao pointed at, but was stunned for a moment.

Pfft!
Zhang Xiu suddenly fell to his knees and shouted, "Uncle!"

Faced with his nephew whom he hadn't seen for several years, the corners of Zhang Ji's eyes turned red, but he held back his emotions and reprimanded in a low voice: "Hurry up, Chang Shi is in front of you, Boyuan, how can you be so rude!"

"only!"

Zhang Xiu got up quickly.

"General Zhang, Bo Yuan, your uncle and nephew haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's inconvenient for me to disturb you. Let's go ahead, and you can follow up later on your own."

When uncles and nephews got together, Lin Chao didn't want to disturb him, and didn't want to watch the next sensational scene, so he left them enough private space.

　By the way, Lao Yu doesn't understand very well. Is it possible to have a child at the age of 75?
