Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 545 If I am handsome
Zhou Yu galloped away on horseback. Zhongmou County and Luoyang are not too far away, and they are both under the jurisdiction of Henan Yin. What happened today has made him unable to recover until now. He never thought It turns out that it is not just what he heard, but sometimes what he sees is false. When he left Zhongmou, he began to feel a little worried. He should have taken his master away just now. What will happen?
With such thoughts in mind, he continued to speed up, ignoring post stations and the like along the way, and rushed to the gate of Luoyang City. Looking at the familiar soldiers in front of the gate of Luoyang City, his heart was still heavy, The soldiers didn't make things difficult for him, Zhou Yu quickly entered the door with the student's biography test, and went all the way to Zhijinwu's camp. When he arrived in front of the camp, the soldiers quickly stopped him.

"I have something important to see General Lu!!!"

"I am under the command of Lieutenant Sili!"

Zhou Yu shouted loudly, the soldiers didn't dare to delay when they heard about it, and rushed into the camp. Not long after, several soldiers came out, led Zhou Yu into the camp, walked to the front of the school grounds, and saw Lu Bu's tall Zhou Yu hurriedly saluted and said, "Zhou Yu pays respects to General Lu!" Afterwards, he handed Yuan Shu's letter to Lu Bu. Lu Bu took the letter and read it for a while, frowning.

"The matter is of great importance, I need the emperor's edict!!"

"General, we can't hide the matter of Zhongmu for too long. If the general doesn't do anything, I'm afraid these thieves will flee!" Zhou Yu cried helplessly, and Lu Bu nodded, and ordered the soldiers behind him: "Quickly dispatch People go to surround Henan Yin's mansion, and in addition, notify the captain of the city gate to close the city gate, you take the rest of the brothers, and rush to the various counties of Henan Yin!!!"

"Please!"

But Lu Bu didn't go there in person. He took Zhou Yu and hurried to the palace, all the way to the Hall of Houde.

"Your Majesty!!" Zhou Yu bowed, and without waiting for the emperor to say anything, he told what he had seen and heard in Zhongmou. The emperor and Lu Bu listened carefully. When Zhou Yu finished speaking, the emperor's face was already flushed. , he could vaguely see the blue veins on his forehead, he looked at Lu Bu, and Lu Bu hurriedly said: "I hope Your Majesty will forgive me. I heard that the matter is urgent, so I sent people first to arrest him!!"

The Son of Heaven endured the rage in his heart, and roared angrily: "Contact the Northern Army, transfer a battalion, and you will be in command, and I will capture all these treacherous ministers and traitors!!!"

Lu Bu and Zhou Yu hurriedly left the palace.

The Son of Heaven sat on the bearded chair, rubbing his forehead, the anger in his heart was beyond words, and this kind of thing could happen even around him, so what would it look like in the rest of the world?He also remembered that when the princes implemented the assessment system in the past, all the officials had opposed it, saying that this system would allow many talented and unvirtuous people to occupy important positions, and it would destroy the foundation of the great man.

If I remember correctly, it seems that He Yeye is the faction that insists on opposing.

Now, I finally saw how much a talented but virtuous person can do! !
Lu Bu's actions were very quick. The soldiers in charge of Jinwu and the soldiers of the First Battalion of the Northern Army completed the control of the counties in Yin, Henan in less than three days. The rest of the officials were all besieged in the county government, and they were not in a hurry to arrest them, and Yuan Shu also returned to Luoyang to meet Lu Bu. , for interrogation.

As for Henan Yin, he was not in Luoyang. He went to Yangwu County, but he did not escape. Lu Bu sent people to surround Yangwu and trapped him in the county government office. After hearing this important news, Yuan Shu, Hua Xiong, Lu Bu, and Zhou Yu rushed to Yangwu County together. After confirming the location of Henan Yin, Lu Bu issued an arrest order in other places. All the officials of Yin and Yang in Henan were captured.

Both Ting Wei's prison and Embroidered Clothes Emissary's prison cannot accommodate these people.

Yuan Shu and Lu Bu did not have any friendship, even if they met each other, they did not speak a word. After arriving in Yangwu County, Lu Bu said directly: "Your Majesty ordered me to arrest the traitor, and I will bring Henan Yin back. As for the officials The vacancy left after being arrested still needs two people to worry about." Lu Bu said, but before Yuan Shu could speak, Hua Xiong on the side was a little annoyed.

"As the captain of Sili, I should be the one to handle this matter. What's more, these traitors were also exposed by me. You just assisted in arresting people and wanted to take them back? Do you want to keep them?" Let's clean up the mess?"

Lu Bu smiled and said: "If the captain is unwilling, we can discuss it. I, Lu Bu, am the most reasonable!"

"I won't talk too much with you, I know you are eloquent, I can't say no to you, but this person must be brought back by me!"

Neither of them would give in. Hua Xiong had fought all his life, how could he be afraid of Lu Bu? The two debated for a long time, but when they looked outside, Yuan Shu and Zhou Yu were nowhere to be seen. You actually tied up Yuan Taifu and his disciples?? You let them go, and I'll give them to you!!"

"Bastard!!" Lu Bu jumped into a rage, waving the spear in his hand, and roared, "How could I do such a thing!! You don't want to spit blood!"

"Why, you still want to kill me?!?" Hua Xiong took a step back, pointed at Lu Bu, shook his head and said, "Okay, you, Lu Bu, are such a person that you want to kill your colleagues for mere military achievements. If you die for the king today, you deserve to die!!"

Lv Bu stabbed him with a spear, but the soldiers on the side blocked him tightly and refused to let him pass. Lv Bu was still roaring, "Get out of the way, Henan Yin, I won't catch him anymore, I will kill this dog thief too! !!"

"Okay, what you said, you don't want to catch it, thank you General Lu for your courtesy!!"

Hua Xiong paid homage to Lu Bu, and happily ran towards the county government's mansion.

Walking on the road, Hua Xiong still thought with some disdain in his heart: "You can still speak eloquently, just like that, I can say two or three times that I'm crazy!"

Of course, at this time, Yuan Shu, accompanied by Zhou Yu, had already entered the county government mansion. The officials here looked at him in horror. When they saw him coming in, they knelt down and trembled. He left the county office, walked to the innermost study room, stood at the door, and saw that guy sitting in front of the desk, waving his pen and ink, writing something.

Yuan Shu walked in front of him and sat down slowly.

The man raised his head, looked at Yuan Shu, smiled, and said, "Please sit down for a while, Mr. Yuan, I'm almost done."

Yuan Shu didn't answer, but just looked at him, and Zhou Yu on the side did the same. The one in front of him was Henan Yin. How should I put it, this person's appearance is really unflattering. He has a short stature, small eyes and big nose. Ugly, Yuan Shu met Pang Tong before, and Pang Tong often referred to himself as a genius, saying that he has a strange appearance, and he will definitely do things different from ordinary people in the future. However, this Pang Tong's strangeness is still somewhat different from this one. , no wonder he can sit in the position of Henan Yin.

As he wrote, he was still saying: "This month, there are counties close to the big river, and the water conservancy project is about to be completed. I have to take care of everything, and I am really tired."

He filled the papers in front of him, and Yuan Shu could see clearly that this person's handwriting was authentic, and the font was very unique, which was completely unreminiscent of his appearance, and his writing speed was also amazing, even, There was no pause at all, and it was done in one go. If it weren't for his figure and appearance, he would have been a celebrity writer. After he finished writing, he raised his head and looked at Yuan Shu in front of him.

Yuan Shu and Zhou Yu were still staring at his face.

"What? Mr. Yuan, but I was thinking, as expected of a traitor, does he really look like a traitor?" He laughed at himself.

Yuan Shu shook his head and said, "With a strange appearance, there must be extraordinary deeds."

Henan Yin laughed, looked at Yuan Shu in front of him, shook his head, and said, "Mr. Yuan, I want to tell you something interesting."

He didn't wait for Yuan Shu's reaction, and continued: "There is a powerful family in Chengdu, Shu County. There are two sons in the family. The eldest son is born handsome, a man of virtue, and the patriarch loves him deeply. The second son is born ugly, with an ugly appearance, and the patriarch hates him. , the eldest son has already promoted Xiaolian as an official, and his reputation is far and wide. The second son has an earth-shattering talent, but he is bound to the family, and he feels resentful. Fortunately, he has made many friends and revealed his ambitions."

"Later, there was a virtuous person who made an assessment system, and the second son went there, and he was the crown of the two farmers. Wei, for more than ten years successively. He was the county magistrate of the four places and the capital of the two places. He has made countless political achievements. Ascension, the ministers of the temple do not value their deeds because of their ugliness."

"If you are a county magistrate, the county magistrate will be promoted; if you are a captain, the chief minister will be promoted. Everyone hopes that this person's right-hand man will be promoted."

"This person is depressed, but he sees villains occupying high positions one by one. Later, he just learned the truth of this. He visited celebrities everywhere, visited friends, gave them a lot of money, and rose all the way. As for the big officials, they became officials. You don’t need to be talented, you don’t need to be handsome, as long as you have numerous friends, abundant wealth, fame and reputation, and put on a show, you can rise all the way. Hehehe, Yuan Gong, that person is me!!”

He stood up, looked at Yuan Shu, and said with some resentment: "I have been an official for more than ten years. I have been diligent in government and caring for the people. I have made countless political achievements and benefited one side, but others hate me because of my ugly face! After three years in office, I have been flattering and flattering." Flattery, fishing for fame, deception, but all the way to the top. Everyone recites my virtuous name"

"No!" Yuan Shu said, looking at Henan Yin in front of him, he said, "I'll tell you an interesting story as well."

"I know a person who is also from a wealthy family. This person has an ugly face and was not liked by others since he was a child. This person is good at reading, young and smart, and is appreciated by everyone. This person also relies on his academic achievements and is the best in both subjects." Guan, don't be proud of it, feel ashamed of it, continue to study, now as an official of the Eastern Palace, don't forget to study, work hard day and night, and are deeply loved by His Highness, what do you think, how does this person compare to you?"

Henan Yin shook his head with a smile, and said, "It's just luckier than me." He pointed to the copybook on the table and said, "Over the years, anyone who can be persuaded by me to give me wings, accept my money, and benefit from me It's all on that piece of paper. As for what to do, I can only look at Yuan Gong's." At this moment, he felt relieved, looked at Yuan Shu, and said: "If I look better, maybe."

"Flop!" He spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered backwards, supported the wall, trembling all over, looked at the list on the copybook angrily, and said with a wild laugh: "I'm waiting for you! I'm waiting for you!" You guys!!!", shouted twice, fell to the ground immediately, and at this time, Hua Xiong had just entered the study, seeing such a scene, Hua Xiong was startled, almost jumped up.

Yuan Shu shook his head and asked: "The one who was killed in the battlefield is still afraid of this dead body?"

"No... I'm not afraid of dead bodies. It's because this person looks too scary"

Hua Xiong leaned down again, looked at Henan Yin in front of him, and asked: "Is this the Zhang Song? I never thought it would look like this. He is so ugly, but he can still take the position of Henan Yin. Come to think of it. is a talented person”

"Ah."
