Chapter 266 The Lobbyist
"It's been almost three years since I left Longxi. I used to know that Xingyun is not a thing in the pond. Now that the dragon is getting rain, it is here! However, good birds choose trees to live in. Sima Gong's Taobao is rare in ancient and modern times. It is only a golden city. A corner, I hope Xingyun will think about it carefully, if I can..."

Without even looking at the nonsense behind Yang Zheng, he crushed the yellow paper and threw it out.

The first thing Hu Fen did when he took office was to persuade himself to surrender.

But friendship is friendship, but life is your own.

Cao Shuang listened to Chen Tai's hand over and surrendered, only asking for a rich man but not getting it.

"Wait, go pick it up." Yang Zheng said to Liu Heng.

Liu Heng was taken aback for a moment, then retrieved the ball of paper in dismay.

In the past, the letters were either bamboo slips or silk, but now they are yellow paper.

Yang Zheng spread out the paper. Although the quality is not as good as later generations, it is very rough and there are many impurities on it, but it can already meet the needs of writing.

There are so many calligraphers in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, which has something to do with the popularity of paper.

"Hu Fen led 4000 people from the Anding Hu family to enter Guzang ten days ago." Meng Guan was in charge of the Nine Camps, and Liangzhou had always been the top priority of the elaborators.

"It went so smoothly?" Yang Zheng remembered that even in the Wei Wu era, local tyrants in the five counties of Liangzhou dared to openly rebel.

As for Cao Pi and Cao Rui, there was a small disturbance every year and a big disturbance every three years.

Its situation is more complicated than that of Xiping. Many tycoons have been multiplying and living for more than 200 years. In addition, the Xianbei people went south and the Hu people moved east. Chen Tai can only defend, what can Hu Fen do?
"Of course it won't go well. Hu Fen was intercepted and killed by the Qianghu tribe six times at the mouths of Zuli and Quyin, losing some troops, but Hu Fen fought bravely and defeated Qianghu six times." Meng Guan laughed.

Liu Heng laughed loudly, "Okay, these Qiang Hus are really bold!"

"In fact, it may not be Qiang Hu's doing." Meng Guan's eyes flashed.

"Continue." Yang Zheng's interest increased greatly.

Before Chen Tai became Liangzhou Inspector, he was the protector of the Xiongnu Zhonglang, the Bingzhou Inspector, and the general who held the festival to strengthen the prestige. He had a high prestige.

Hu Fen is different. He may have ability, but his prestige is hard to say.

"The Anding Hu family has lived in the northwest for generations, and Hu Fen has come here. Once the Hu family has a firm foothold in Liangzhou, it will definitely infringe on the interests of others. Therefore, Hao Qiang is likely to be the same as Qiang Hu." Meng Guan's analysis is straightforward. .

It's like in an originally peaceful system, suddenly a leader is airborne, and there will naturally be conflicts with local snakes.

"Then what are your plans?" Yang Zheng's eyes lit up.

These days, if you don't cheat others, others will cheat you.

Hu Fen and Wei Guan made it clear that they were targeting themselves.

Meng Guan said with a smile: "The subordinates thought that Hu Fen could not be idle. It just so happened that Lu Shuipeng's tribe has tribes living scattered in Wuwei, Zhangye, and Jiuquan, and many of our people mixed in."

Yang Zheng nodded, "I will send Jiang Faye to help you with this matter."

If Hu Fen wants to deal with himself, he must first integrate Liangzhou, at least Wuwei County.

The difficulty is not small.

In addition to finding some fun for him, it will never be done so easily.

Back then Yang Zheng had the intention of stealing Liangzhou secretly.

However, Chen Tai was not of the easy-going type. Yang Zheng was careful everywhere and made slow progress. Later, Deng Ai came in full force and interrupted the deployment.

Now, it can muddy the water in Liangzhou.

"The Nine Camps can be expanded appropriately. You can recruit the manpower yourself. If you need money and silk, you can come up with a charter." Yang Zheng is going to continue to invest in the Nine Camps.

Both internally and externally, Nine Camping is a sharp weapon.

"Is this going to attack Liangzhou? Okay, okay, I, Liu Heng, would like to be the striker!" Liu Heng interjected.

There were only three people in the hall, Liu Heng and Meng Guan were counting people, so there was no one to tell the truth.

"Xiping just took Jincheng, and all the Zhechong mansions are under construction, and there is not enough money and food. If we attack Liangzhou, we will just push Liangzhou Haoyou and Qianghu tribes to Hu Fen's side." Meng Guan carefully explained to Liu Heng explained.

Yang Zheng smiled and said, "Then when do you think you can go to Liangzhou?"

Meng Guan thought for a while, "My subordinates feel that it is not up to us to take Liangzhou, but to the court. Sima Yi is about to die, and time is running out. Once he dies, people may not be willing to obey Master Sima."

This inference is fairly rigorous.

Among the youth camp, Meng Guan was the one Yang Zheng had the most high hopes for.

At a young age, he already has the talent of a general.

People in this era are generally omnipotent, scholars who quote classics, and they are equally brutal when fighting.

Those who know how to fight generally know astronomy and geography well.

Yang Zheng always felt that the problem was not with Confucianism, but with people.

"Where's Wei Guan? Is there any news about this person?"

"This person is very low-key, and there is no news about him." Meng Guan wondered.

Yang Zheng frowned, and had a vague intuition that Wei Guan might become a very big hidden danger.

"Report to the general, Huainan and Luoyang each have envoys!" The guard whispered outside the door.

Yang Zheng had expected it.

The battle of breaking the Qiang has proved itself to be a powerful pawn.

Such a loud slap to Sima and his son will naturally attract the attention of some people.

This is also one of the bonuses of war.

Yang Zheng was naturally very interested in Huainan.

The dog legs around Xiping are Deng Ai and Anding Hu's, but most of the Sima family's dog legs are gathered around Huainan.

"Let the envoy from Huainan come in first." Yang Zheng shouted to the outside of the hall.

"only!"

Not long after, a scribe in his early thirties came in, his slender eyes flicked back and forth, "Lu Jiang Lu Xuan pays homage to Governor Yang."

Since it is Lujiang, it should be from Wenqin.

"Xiping is four thousand miles away from Lujiang River, the messenger has a heart." Yang Zheng slightly cupped his hands to show his respect.

Liu Heng and Meng Guangong stand around.

"Prefect Yang is the old general, and my lord is also the old general. Xiping and Lujiang are one family!" Lu Xuan didn't talk nonsense, and his attitude was quite sincere.

Wen Qin is a child of Qiao County, and has always been valued by Cao Shuang.

It's a pity that the change of Gaoping Mausoleum was too fast, only five days before and after, the three clans of Cao Shuang fell to the ground.

As a child of Qiao County, it is impossible for Wen Qin not to panic.

To reassure himself, Sima Yi was promoted to General Zuo.

But Wen Qin is not stupid. If Sima Yi ignores him, he may turn the crisis into safety. If he deliberately appeases him, it means that he has become a thorn in the side of the Sima family.

The children of Chaozhong Qiaojun were either dismissed or marginalized.

Ding Mi and Huan Fan were imprisoned by the Yi clan, Xia Houxuan was almost under house arrest, and the Xiahou Cao was also transferred to idleness.

"General Wen has a heart!" Yang Zheng said with something in his words.

Lu Xuan didn't take it seriously, "There are rumors in Luoyang that Taifu Sima hasn't shown up for two months. People in Wei are in panic. All affairs in the court are decided by Master Sima, but Duke Xiahou is excluded. Does Yang Taishou know?"

Mentioning Xia Houxuan, Yang Zheng couldn't help feeling depressed.

Before the Battle of Breaking the Qiang broke out, Yang Zheng sent a spy to persuade him to at least leave a descendant, but Xia Houxuan was unmoved.

Perhaps Xia Houxuan still had a little illusion about Cao Wei.

After the Battle of Breaking the Qiang, Master Sima stepped up his supervision, and it was too late to do anything.

It was difficult for Dou Muxie to approach.

Sometimes Yang Zheng didn't know how to tell Xia Houzhi.

Character determines fate.

Xia Houxuan has become a deadly situation.
