Three Kingdoms: Cao Ying's mastermind, from nine to five

Chapter 142: Returning to Korea in a Glorious Way!Xudu is also famous!

"After completing this appointment and dismissal, we can basically go back."

Xu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the local people are still reluctant to give up, but now the beneficial policy has been implemented, and the policy of garrisoning the fields in the spring of next year is almost finalized.

All local elected officials who are appointed and dismissed in various places are all people with excellent reputation and public opinion.

There will be no cruel officials, what's more, Xu Zhen has left soldiers and horses in Jiujiang, so he can check the conduct of officials at any time.

"Okay, this time the government is over, huh..."

Cao Ang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, I feel a little bit reluctant.

For the first time in these years, almost all of his energy was spent on benefiting the people.

Not just compassion in my heart.

But put it into action.

Tired, but rich in heart, especially when people sincerely praise you and get the Letter of Ten Thousand Peoples to ask for governance.

That kind of feeling is not good for outsiders.

The joy in my heart is truly incomparable.

"Brother, this trip has been hard."

"Haha," Xu Zhentai smiled, "Of course it's not bitter."

"However, I have to live in the Jiangnan water town. Since I am staying in Jiujiang, I will move the mansion to Jiujiang. In the future, when Jie'er becomes an adult, I'm afraid I will stay away from Xudu and live in Jiujiang. I wonder if my lord will miss it?"

"Should be, but father will respect elder brother," Cao Ang smiled, and continued: "Besides, my father seems to intend to marry both Cao Ning and Cao Xian to elder brother."

Cao Ang had wanted to tell Xu Zhen about these things a long time ago, to make him happy a little bit, but he didn't expect that he didn't have much time to rest after being so busy.

It is only now that I have found the opportunity to tell this.

However, Xu Zhen's face was stunned for a moment, as if he was a little dull, "Really?"

"This, this... My lord, are you a little impatient?"

Cao Ang immediately smiled bitterly, "Isn't this what my brother asked for, and I have been asking for this in lieu of a reward?"

"However, after having Jie'er, there is indeed no need for two younger sisters. Brother Bowen should also understand that after marrying Cao Jie, he is half of the Cao family, and Weng Weng will treat his brother as if he was his own and treat him sincerely. "

"Brother, can you still find someone in the family?"

"No," Xu Zhen shook his head immediately, "I have no relatives in this world, and the closest relatives are your family."

It's really good to say this, Cao Cao has always loved and trusted him, although sometimes he often made willful requests.

But as long as Xu Zhen insists on being shameless, Cao Cao will not be too demanding.

Getting along with Cao Ang in the past few years has gradually become familiar, and then they are like brothers.

Although the relationship between the two does not talk about everything, but they will not have the heart of backstabbing each other, and they are both teachers and friends.

It can be regarded as family.

Of course, Xu Zhen was only kind to them, and only Cao Chun, Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun had some friendship with the rest of the generals of the Cao family and Xiahou family.

Xu Zhen's Suwei camp was gifted by Cao Ren, and it came in handy. Until today, it has become a solid barrier of its own.

Regardless of bow and arrow, riding, close combat, or military drills, these soldiers and horses have extremely comprehensive and powerful qualities.

Even if it competes against tiger and leopard riders, it is no less inferior.

It can be said that although Xu Zhen has earned everything now, it is inseparable from the fact that Cao Cao's family treats him like a family member.

"Let's go back first."

Xu Zhen also has a headache. If she marries too many, should she form a Mrs. Qiqi?No need! !

The road to longevity is long, women will only affect my brushing speed!

That's enough!

……

at the same time.

Outside of Yi Jing, Gongsun Zan was almost surrounded by 20 soldiers and horses.

Of course he doesn't know any news from the outside world, he only knows that he is at the end of the road and has entered the stage where he can only stick to it.

Yuan Shao, on the other hand, was majestic, walking on the battlefield day and night, besieging the fierce generals under his command with excellent command.

The purpose is to break through Gongsun Zan's Yijing tower and fortress before the end of this winter and before the ice and snow, smash the place where the Youzhou bandit soldiers are hoarding, and completely defeat the Black Mountain Army Zhang Yan.

From this, the military and civilian officials in the four counties of Youzhou were all subordinated with prestige.

In the past few months, the power of Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses has made Gongsun Zan frightened by the news, retreating steadily, and many generals under his command have been beheaded continuously. Since the defeat at Jieqiao, Gongsun Zan's white horse righteousness has never been more motivated.

By this year, it was already doomed.

Yuan Shao ordered at this moment that all soldiers and horses approach Yi Jing's location, start digging from the ground, and use all means to enter Yi Jing.

There is a tall pavilion in Yijing, which is a tall building built by Gongsun Zan. He stationed hundreds of archers outside the building, and the walls under it are hundreds of feet in circumference. The entire Yijing is actually a huge city. .

However, from what Jiangzu had heard, we can see that Gongsun Zan is now in a state of luxury, playing and playing with many wives and concubines at home, ignoring the military, and only waiting for Yuan Jun to retreat.

With such a situation, Yuan Shao of course understood that Gongsun Zan's ambition had been completely wiped out. The white horse general who had been famous outside the Great Wall for ten years and made the horse-backed foreigners fearful, had been beaten by him to the point where he had no way out.

Only the hearts of the people are lost, and they die!

Therefore, his offensive became more violent, especially after winning the Shouchun War, Yuan Shao went straight to Yijing without reservation.

Gongsun Zan was gradually exhausted, and was pulled out of the tall building by his subordinates. He was about to fight to the death, and then rushed out with thousands of cavalry. He asked his son to lead Baima Yicong and most of the cavalry to contact the Black Mountain Army and gather for a fierce attack on Yuan Shao.

For the final battle.

At this time, Yuan Shao naturally expected this move, and deployed troops to meet him. It is still unknown how the two sides will win or lose...

……

end of October.

Xu Zhen led Qingqi Suwei, military generals such as Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Zhao Yun, and civil servants such as Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang returned to Xudu.

Accept the emperor's reward.

above the hall.

After waiting for Xu Zhen to come back, Cao Cao went to see the emperor and rewarded him for his merits.

It has been reported before that Shouchun's removal of thieves.

Now that Xu Zhen and Cao Ang have arrived, it happens to be the most important award before the end of the year.

Before the court hall, all the civil and military officials gathered to enter, and in front of the main hall, there were small attendants to help the officials take off their boots.

The people behind naturally walk slowly.

At this time, Xu Zhen just entered the stairs before the main hall accompanied by Dian Wei and Xu Chu.

It also happened to be that behind them was Dong Chengguo.

"Hehehe, the prestige of Junhou in Yangzhou has already been heard by Xu, it is really admirable."

Dong Chengyi stopped Xu Zhen with pointed words, but the words were guns and sticks. He said that after Xu Zhen beat him last time, he stayed away from the court to avoid being assassinated.

It is somewhat poignant to escape from Xudu, but to show his might in other places.

Moreover, Cao Ang is actually marching and fighting behind Xu Zhen, and it is not certain who is making suggestions.

Dong Cheng still can't forget Xu Zhen sleeping soundly day and night on the gate tower of the imperial city.

That's the real life-saver. Every day he takes office, he just sleeps. Basically, his achievements are all due to the fierce generals under his command. Needless to say, these fierce men must have been appointed by the Cao family.

It was nothing more than repaying the favor for saving his father so that Xu Zhen could survive.

At this time Xu Chu turned his head and glared.

When meeting Dong Cheng's eyes, Dong Cheng immediately took a step back, the smile on his face was a little stiff.

He remembered that this warrior was as famous as Dian Wei, but he was not as reckless as Dian Wei, so he should have received some school education.

But he is also afraid of this kind of person. If he is really reckless, I really don't know what he will do.

After some people figure it out, they may be more ruthless.

"Zhongkang, don't get angry."

Xu Zhen smiled lightly, saluted Dong Cheng, and bowed slightly.

The smile on his face didn't change at all, and he said: "It is said that Dong Guozhang has also made a lot of meritorious service. Outside Lujiang, he has [-] plays, and he fought endlessly with Liu Xun, day and night."

"Hehe," Dong Cheng didn't say much anymore, and didn't argue with Xu Zhen, after all, he lost face by talking about this matter.

Because he lost to Liu Xun and was beaten almost to pieces, if Zhang Xiu hadn't come to rescue him from Wancheng, he might have lost the front line of Lujiang, and Xu Zhen would have to rescue him from Chenliu.

And everyone knows that Liu Xun, who defeated Dong Cheng, was killed by a cavalry general under Xu Zhen's command.

Talking about Liu Xun again is self-defeating, so there is no need to continue talking.

However, Dong Cheng's silence made Xu Zhen feel a little abnormal.

For some reason, he seemed to feel a little bit of spring breeze today.

Dong Cheng, is there something good to do?

At this moment, Guo Jia passed by and gave Dong Cheng a cold look. The corners of his mouth suddenly rose, and the short and thick beard on his chin stretched out, revealing a smiling face.

"General Wei, please go to the main hall first."

"Okay, then I'll go first, Xu Junhou, Guo Lingjun."

After Dong Cheng and others left, Guo Jia's expression returned to calm, he winked at Xu Zhen, and said softly, "We spent nine months in the land of Shouchun."

"During this period of time, how can the scholar-bureaucrats in the rear have no arrangements."

"However, all of this will dig deeper."

Xu Zhen raised his head a little later, "Brother Fengxiao, how much did you drink last night? It tastes really good."

"Tsk, talking nonsense." Guo Jia looked at Xu Zhen's words in disgust, and walked forward with his hands behind his back, without further words.

I don't know whether Xu Zhen listened to it or not.

In short, based on what Guo Jia now knows, Dong Cheng and the others must have taken advantage of this time to come up with some kind of plan.

It just hasn't worked yet.

After all, it still takes some time for a strategy to be effective.

Moreover, it takes an opportunity to inspire.

……

above the hall.

Xu Zhen stood in the middle section as usual, standing with Wen Chen, with Guo Jia behind him and Cao Ang beside him.

Su Wei and others are outside the main hall.

Everyone was bowing and listening, and the emperor was reading aloud the commendation letter written by Shangshutai, which was estimated to be very long.

Therefore, all officials should stick to their sincerity and show awe and fear by bowing their bodies. Only Xu Zhen kept yawning.

He has a feeling that he went to school to gather and wait for the flag to be raised.

"It turns out that this sense of ritual has existed since ancient times."

I can't get enough sleep every morning.

Seeing Xu Zhen like this made Guo Jia and Cao Ang feel uncomfortable.

As for the court, just bear with it... Would you really feel uncomfortable if you don't share the worries for the people?

Dong Cheng, who was standing in front, could hear Xu Zhen's yawn, and kept shaking his head and sneering.

As expected of a wine bag and rice bag, the court can be so relaxed, how can the reputation be good in the future?

"With all the ministers, we will correct the righteousness of the great Han, bring order to the chaos of the universe, stabilize the rebellion in Jiujiang, and kill the rebels of the Yuan family. I am very relieved! Write, Da Sikong Cao Cao, to reward the three armies, to reward meritorious officials, and to reward meritorious deeds .”

"Here!"

Cao Cao was on the side of the emperor, so he was given a seat to listen to the government because of his military exploits, and he was not famous for his praise.

Cao Cao took out the scrolls, one by one, and listed all the civil and military achievements in this war.

Given the award, Xu Zhen naturally served as the prefect of Jiujiang and was granted the title of Marquis of Shucheng.

Dian Wei and Xu Chu all got the title of Marquis of Ting, and the rest of the civil and military officials also had their own titles and rewards, so they got this official position.

Cao Cao even successfully established the school affairs office to monitor the integrity of officials and officials and the integrity of the school captains of all ministries.

Look at the clarity of the famous scholars and noble families in Xudu, and those who seek lofty ideals regard them as disciples.

Neither the emperor nor the scholar-officials made a sound and dared not refute.

After all, after Cao Cao got Yuan Shu's army now, his force expanded again, and several more garrisons were added, while Dong Cheng's army suffered heavy losses, three thirds of which were lost on the battlefield.

Su Wei didn't dare to send any more. Once there was a change, Zhang Xiu came from Wancheng, Cao Chun went from Anyi, they could attack back and forth, and surrender all his troops overnight.

At this moment, the emperor once again invited Cao Cao to be the prime minister, to monopolize the military and political affairs, and to rule the world's money and food.

But Cao Cao refused again, still took the position of Sikong, did not make any changes, and accepted the title of the emperor as a county lord.

I am afraid that the emperor will need to invite the emperor twice for the position of prime minister, and he will accept it only after all the officials agree.

When the day of offering sacrifices to heaven and ancestors was confirmed, the officials who were in charge of all affairs were established, and they retreated and dispersed, leaving a few people here.

Cao Cao immediately recommended it and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, there is a man outside the palace who is originally a foreign minister, but he has made great achievements in eliminating the thieves this time, so he came to see the emperor."

"This person is a relative of the Han family. It is said that he is the great-great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing, the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, and the descendant of Emperor Zhou."

"Oh? Then, isn't the great-great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing, after Prince Jing... my...uncle?!"

The emperor's eyes widened suddenly, as if he had heard something unbelievable, "Zhen, there is actually an emperor uncle who is a foreign minister outside? Please come in quickly!"

"Okay, Liu Bei!"

Cao Cao shouted loudly, and immediately Huangmen went out to inform Liu Bei to see him.

Finished!

Xu Zhen was under the main hall, his eyes widened suddenly in the middle left, and he looked at Guo Jia on the left.

He immediately winked and said softly: "No, their plan must be here!"

Guo Jia frowned suddenly, and then didn't want to understand Xu Zhen's meaning for the time being, but just looked at him suspiciously, "Really?"

"Yes, is there a way to stop it?"

Guo Jia shook his head, "No."

The short exchange between the two did not result in any achievements. At this moment, Liu Bei has a serious face, wearing a crown hat and extremely solemn clothes.

When he arrived in front of the emperor, he immediately knelt down on both legs, prostrated himself on the ground, and saw him with great courtesy.

"I, Liu Bei, kowtow to the Son of Heaven!"

"Ai Qing, please get up."

Liu Xie took a peek at Cao Cao and found that he was not paying attention to him, and his expression was calm. Then he felt a little relieved and asked Liu Bei, "Ai Qing, are you a descendant of the Queen of Han? Which branch of my family are you?"

"The humble minister Liu Bei is the great-great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing. After Liu Sheng, King Jing of Zhongshan, his family settled in Zhuozhou."

"Oh, then I want to see the family tree... Take it, take the family tree and see it!" Liu Xie glanced at the right side, and at this moment the servant next to him immediately sent someone to get the family tree.

Until this moment, Cao Cao felt something was wrong.

　I am at home, very quiet.We will try to gradually step into the realm of [-] a day from today!
