Chapter 1266 Prevention First
Xun Yan was so happy that he almost shed tears.

Shi Sunrui wanted to recommend him to take over as Zhonghou of the Northern Army, and he was very worried.Apart from the colleagues in the Eighth Battalion of the Northern Army, the emperor was most worried.

The Xun family was too popular, and he was Yuan Shao's former subordinate, so his status was too sensitive. The emperor had countless reasons to reject the recommendation of Sun Rui.It's not a hindrance to the old minister's face, but it's a good result to summon him and then leave him alone.

Now that he heard the words of the emperor, he was really relieved.

Seeing is believing, he has seen the majesty of the emperor and understood why Shi Sun Rui is so confident.

Shi Sunrui's understanding of the emperor exceeded many people's expectations.

After seeing the ceremony, Liu Xie invited scholar Sun Rui and others to sit down in the hall and talk about the journey in the past two years.

Although there will be battle reports after every battle, it is still a rare enjoyment to listen to them face-to-face.

Although the strength of this army is not large, it is only around [-], and there are no outstanding military exploits to mention.But that's where their strength lies.As the saying goes, good fighters have no great achievements. The reason why they seem as easy as traveling around mountains and rivers is because they have crushed their opponents by more than one level, no matter in the command ability of the generals or the tactical quality of the soldiers.

Of course, this is also inseparable from the advantages of macro policies, which fundamentally dissolve the foundation of potential opponents, making them a tree without roots and water without a source.

The scholar Sun Rui went all the way to implement the New Deal. It seemed to be slow, but the actual progress was not much slower than Sun Ce.

The monarch and his ministers talked happily, and before they knew it, it was getting dark.

The ministers who were ordered to attend the reception banquet arrived one after another, setting off wave after wave of climax.

Taking this opportunity, Shi Sunrui reported the situation of Shi Xie and others to Liu Xie, and inadvertently mentioned the article published by Yuan Huigang.

He has been paying attention to Yuan Hui, and saw Yuan Hui's article at the first time.

Liu Xie smiled. "I saw it too."

"Your Majesty means..."

"Shisun Gong, how many people do you think his article will echo?"

Sun Rui thought about it. "It shouldn't be many, but it will take time for the article to spread to various places, and it will take at least one or two months before there will be results."

"Then wait for a month or two." Liu Xie said unhurriedly: "I have been waiting for so many years, and this time is not too short. It will take time for Sikong Mansion and Tingwei Temple to study the judgment plan, etc. No problem."

Liu Xie smiled. "Take this opportunity to see how the scholar-bureaucrats in the Central Plains have changed in recent years, so as to prepare for the next phase of the New Deal."

Shi Sun Rui understood and nodded repeatedly.

As he expected, Shi Xie and others were not that important, and the emperor never took them seriously. At most, it was a test, a test for the Central Plains scholar-bureaucrats.

This is much easier.What he was most afraid of was that the emperor would keep staring at Shi Xie, and he would have no room to maneuver.

Just as he was talking, Sikong Zhouzhong walked in, went straight to Liu Xie, and bowed his hands in salute.

"Your Majesty, the minister is here to spoil the fun."

Liu Xie looked at him in surprise.

Zhou Zhong took out a document from his sleeve and handed it over with both hands.When Liu Xie saw it, he couldn't help but smacked his lips.

It turned out to be the judgment document of the Xiliang garrison Changsha nuisance case.

The trial of this case has been completed long ago, and one of Zhou Zhong's missions this time is to report the case, but he has not submitted the final result for a while.Liu Xie thought he was busy, but he didn't expect that he was waiting for this opportunity.

"Duke Zhou, must this time be?"

"Your Majesty, this time is the best time. I have to hurry up and finally catch up with this time. Everything can be established without warning. If the soldiers of the Northern Army can celebrate their achievements with peace of mind without disturbing the people, I am willing to be a Untimely villain."

Hearing Zhou Zhong mentioning the soldiers of the Northern Army and the topic of disturbing the people, Shi Sun Rui immediately understood, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I second the proposal."

Liu Xie nodded, opened the document and read it, then handed it over to Shi Sun Rui.

Shi Sun Rui looked at it respectfully, and then passed it on to Wei Jie and others.

When they heard the conversation between Liu Xie and Zhou Zhong, Wei Jie and the others guessed it, and immediately became serious and circulated the documents one by one.Although I feel a little disappointed, but in front of the emperor, it is inconvenient to show it.

After all, what Zhou Zhong said was also reasonable. It is better to warn in advance than to be punished after something happens.

Besides, the military discipline of the Northern Army has always been good. As long as they don't indulge, it is unlikely that the Xiliang Army will have such problems.

That being the case, everyone might as well behave decently.

Zhou Zhong was upright, and the Northern Army could not be defeated.Under the leadership of Shi Sunrui, Qi Shua got up and assured the emperor that he must lead by example, strictly restrain the soldiers, and never allow vicious incidents that disturb the people.

When the ministers met, they all applauded, saying that this is the demeanor that Wang Shi should have.

Only Zhang Ji was embarrassed.

-

At Tianzhu Inn, Yuan Hui, Liu Xi, teachers and students gathered around the firepit, drinking tea silently.

When the Northern Army arrived at Quanling, Shi Sun Rui and others entered the city to meet them, but the soldiers of the Northern Army did not enter the city, but stationed outside the city.After receiving the news, many people went out of the city to watch the fun. People were talking about the military status of the Northern Army inside and outside the city, but no one thought that there were not only Northern Army soldiers but also the Shi Xie family in the Northern Army barracks.

This surprised them.

They thought that Lingling was so close to Jiaozhou that some people would feel sorry for Shi Xie.

"The Son of Heaven stayed in Quanling for a year, and the soldiers of the forbidden army had strict military discipline. The people of Quanling had a good impression of them, and they fell in love with Wu as much as their houses," Xue Zong explained.

Recently, he went out with Liu Xi to choose a site, had more contact with the local people, and learned more about the situation.

"If the imperial army is like this, wouldn't the Son of Heaven have a better impression in their minds?" Yuan Hui whispered, as if afraid of being heard by others.

"That's needless to say?" Liu Xi glanced at Yuan Hui angrily. "If it weren't for this, the people of Quanling would compare the Son of Heaven with Shun?"

Yuan Hui smiled wryly. "If the Son of Heaven is Shun, then what are we?"

Liu Xi was at a loss for words and remained silent for a long time.

Xue Zong took the topic. "Xia Qing, I think...Gao Wenhui's opinion may be reasonable and worth considering."

"It's too early to draw conclusions." Yuan Hui was a little annoyed. "Even if the post road is smooth, it will take about a month for my article and Mr. Liu's article to reach the Central Plains. It will take at least three months for the scholars in the Central Plains to respond, write the article, and form a momentum. What we have to consider now should be to prevent the Sikong Mansion, Tingwei Temple will make a verdict within three months. If a person dies, there is nothing he can do about it.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Yuan Hui said again: "The ministers around the emperor are greedy for power and position, and they don't want to stand out. I want to go back to the Central Plains, contact old friends, and see if I can find like-minded celebrities to speak out together."

Just as Liu Xi was about to speak, Xue Zong shook his head calmly.Liu Xi understood, and tightly closed his mouth.

Even now, they also know that it is of little significance to appeal by writing articles.The New Deal has been implemented for nearly ten years, and the style of scholars in the Central Plains has long been different from what they are familiar with.Yuan Hui didn't give up, so let him run around, and they don't have to mix too deeply.

They are all pure scholars, without Yuan Hui's family background and contacts, they can't play much role, and they can't bear the consequences.It may be the most sensible choice to take this opportunity to cut off with Yuan Hui.
