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

Chapter 337 No one thinks you are dumb if you don't speak!
A few days later, several people got the news.

Xu Zhen didn't want to come to Hanzhong to meet them. He was in Fufeng to manage the government and provide disaster relief. If he wanted to see them, he could arrange a luxurious carriage and welcome them with noble gifts.

The Yizhou civil and military people who came here have never had any grudges, and it is normal to be more vigilant. After all, Xu Cheqi has been assassinated before, so it should be his normal state to be cautious.

So, soon these envoys made up their minds, agreed to Xu Zhen's request, and went to Fufeng together to meet him.

This is a courtesy, and it is also what these counselors think in their hearts. Once they see Xu Zhen, maybe everyone will have their own ghosts. It cannot be as simple as meeting Xu Zhen just for Liu Zhang.

After staying in Hanzhong for a short time, after receiving Liu Zhang's response, Fazheng, Li Yan and his party got Xu Zhen's ceremonial motorcade to welcome the Fufeng generation.

"Fufeng County in Xiliang was not rich in the early years. It was famous for the great Confucian Ma Rong, and it has also gained a reputation for many years, attracting countless scholars to flock here."

"I remember that in those years, there were many lines outside Ma's mansion like long snakes. It was a pity that things changed and people changed. Although they are richer than before, people are completely different. different."

After entering the city, Ling Fazheng smiled brightly when he saw Xiliang's prosperity in the carriage.

As a result, his eyes became clearer, and he smiled from ear to ear. Fazheng had a handsome face, a slender figure and a beautiful voice.

He has been in Yizhou for many years, he was favored by family resources, coupled with his own talent, he has learned a lot from studying for many years, and is good at thinking and observation, so he got his name as an official.

His grandfather, the famous scholar Fazhen, was a man of Fufeng, so Liu Zhang was willing to agree with Fazheng to come to see Xu Zhen.

The so-called good birds choose trees to live in. Back then, the Fa family was able to enter Yizhou from Xiliang, and then took root in Yizhou. Now, it is natural that they can return to Xiliang from Yizhou and belong to Xu Zhen's command.

"Xiaozhi came out this time, and his mood seems to be different."

In the spacious carriage, Li Yan squinted at him, his face seemed to be calm, but in fact it was already slightly sharp.

He knew that Fazheng was not right, and he also thought that he had already moved to another master.

But he still doesn't know whether Xu Zhen knew about it during the period when Xu Zhen occupied Hanzhong, or if he invited Xu Zhen to Yizhou to fight Zhang Lu before.

That's why Li Yan felt uncomfortable, and he also had a grudge against Fazheng. Even now, seeing his smiling face, there was an unknown anger in his heart.

This person has a dark heart!Actually defected to Xu Zhen in advance, don't call me!
It's a pity that he took the first step. If he voted earlier, he might still be able to occupy a good position. Now it is very likely that he will be preempted by this Fazheng, and it would be less sincere to go for refuge.

This time I came to see Xu Zhen, although I came here under orders, but I also have a lot of selfishness. If I come to see him with a good attitude, I can accept both civil and military. If I am interested in Yizhou, I will ask for something from each other.

After arriving at the government office, the gate was opened, and several people came down from the three carriages, some of them were already waiting for the arrival of Li Yan and Fazheng. Although Zhang Song was not in the list, Fazheng could express his heart.

However, Huang Quan and the others are true loyalists, and they are not willing to surrender to the Cao family and the Xu family at all. They really came to question the crime.

As for Li Yan, he never had any biased thoughts, he is a neutral person.

But after entering the government office, there was a slight change in mentality. In Xu Zhen's government office, the guards were heavily guarded, and the walking guards, generals and officials all wore fine silk robes, and their footsteps were solid. , in good spirits.

And most of them are tall and strong people, and it can be seen at a glance that they are all noble people with extraordinary bearing.

Fufeng was not a very grand and rich place, but Li Yan was surprised to see many people passing by along the way.

It is the feeling of tolerance, the pedestrians have a sense of calmness, and it is quite rich at first glance. This is not something that can be raised with a little food. It has to be followed for many years, trust its owner, and know that there will be a future. Calm and at ease.

Therefore, Li Yan felt a little bit that if he followed, his family might be preserved in the future, not to mention, they could survive in a more prosperous way.

Now is no longer the era when the gentry can control the fate of the big man, they can't even control their own destiny, let alone the tens of millions of people in the whole big man.

Not long after, a Confucian scholar came out from the door. He had a slightly long beard and elegant demeanor. He bowed and saluted with a smile, which made Li Yan and Fazheng feel more at ease. They showed unnecessary smiles on each other. Of course they knew this person.

Because not long ago, he had just been a guest in Yizhou, that is, because of his appearance, there was the later alliance of Xu and Liu to eliminate Zhang Lu.

This person is Zhuge Liang, Xu Zhen's disciple, not a protégé.

This is his only second disciple, and he was the eldest disciple he accepted when he was the prefect, when he was not qualified to accept apprentices.

Unfortunately, Hanzhong is now occupied by Xu Zhen.

"Everyone, the chariots have been waiting in the main hall for a long time, but there is not much time for you. After half an hour, he will go to the barracks to select the elite soldiers and horses for the new camp."

new camp.

Zhuge Liang's words revealed a lot of information, which made the visitors quite astonished. Fazheng always liked to laugh, and now he laughed even more proudly.

He even glanced left and right, Fazheng was wearing a blue robe, and the jade belt around his waist was given by Zhuge Liang, and it was given in the name of Xu Zhen, which made Fazheng flaunt it for a long time when he was in Yizhou.

Fazheng, with a mustache, has a shrewd look when he smiles. His eyes are slightly larger, and he looks handsome and elegant, and he gets along quite well with Zhuge Liang.

The new camp we are talking about now is equivalent to the armored cavalry, crossbow cavalry and other camps, indicating that there are new types of armaments. In addition to these, there is also the flying army used when attacking Zhang Lu this time, which was ground out through the flames of war. the elite.

There must be new armaments now.

The Xiliang army is very strong and extremely rich, and it can continue to distribute new armaments in the future. This is not something other princes can do at any time.

"Cheqi, Cheqi will personally go to the camp to choose?"

"That's right," Zhuge Liang nodded, and while welcoming them in, he explained with a smile: "As long as the chariots and riders are free, they will personally go to the barracks to train soldiers and horses, starting with archery and equestrian skills, so many newcomers Ding can continue to train with intensity."

It is precisely because of this, mostly in the way of continuous military training, that the soldiers and horses under his command become more tacit.

For him, this is to strengthen the construction of the army, otherwise the so-called daily training does not make any progress, so what's the point.

"Let's go, let's hurry up."

Zhuge Liang quickened his pace and led them quickly into the main hall. For Li Yan and Fazheng, they finally saw Xu Zhen who had never met before.

This life is extremely legendary big man riding a car.

But what they didn't expect was that Xu Zhen was still so young, he looked only 30 years old.

His beard was neatly trimmed, and his demeanor was calm and elegant. The 36-year-old Xu Zhen was sitting on the main seat, raising his eyes, without any expression change on his face, just staring at Li Yan and nodding.

But when he looked at Fazheng, the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile.

This made Fazheng's heart skip a beat, and then he couldn't stop being ecstatic.

Of course he could feel the difference in attitude, which made him feel that his choice with Zhang Song was very correct.

Che Qi smiled at me, but Li Yan, a celebrity who has a lot of fame and family background in Yizhou, just nodded lightly.

Sure enough, if we continue to stay in the Yizhou group, we will never surpass Li Yan. No matter how much we improve our talents and learning, we will never surpass Li Yan, a gentry group that has already taken root in Yizhou.

However, if Xu Zhen and others are ushered in, they will have made great achievements and will be able to skyrocket in the future. If it was in the prosperous age of the year, it cannot be achieved overnight.

Now as long as you run fast, you can be one step ahead.

Many people in Sichuan already have the intention of voting for another Lord, and now that a Allah has come, that is of course great.

"Everyone, it's been a hard journey."

It took Xu Zhen a long time to say that sentence slowly, and after some pleasantries, he lowered his head to read the letter, and then closed it and put it aside after reading it.

Then he said to Fazheng: "Liu Zhang is not a wise master, and he is not someone who can stabilize the Central Plains in the future. You can tell from the fact that he is good at painting and ink."

Speaking of this, Xu Zhen himself laughed, "I am proficient in internal affairs, foreign affairs, military affairs, etc., but the only thing I don't know is Danqing's calligraphy. The current calligraphy is still in a difficult state."

"It's just that, by coincidence, I got such a family business."

"Although, relying on others to rise, the final status is still based on the results, not the present."

"Since you have come to me, you should have your own ideas." Xu Zhen looked at Fazheng and said, "I have given the gift from Xiaozhi to Dianwei."

"Dianwei, I was born in the guard of life and death, and I am also a fierce general who is hard to find in this world. I never accept gifts, but since you gave them, I will pass them on to my confidantes, so that I will not violate myself. The principle will not make the person who gives the gift feel a little chilled."

After saying this, the three people in the hall were also dumbfounded, and Fazheng was both surprised and delighted.

Surprised that Xu Zhen actually said it face to face, but happy that his words represented acceptance.

Huang Quan, on the other hand, snorted coldly, turned away his face full of anger, and even gave Fazheng a sneaky look.

I didn't expect you, Fa Xiaozhi, to be such a person. I really disgraced you, "Huh! Xu Bowen, you don't have to make this matter so grandiose. I didn't come here to listen to your lies. , win over those who divide."

"I am loyal to my lord Liu Zhang, and I will never slander the ministers of Yizhou just because of one or two words. No matter how you provoke, we will have our own measure."

"Haha," Li Yan immediately broke into a dry laugh, shifting Xu Zhen's gaze from Huang Quan to himself, and then said: "Cheqi, Huang Jun's temper has always been upright and upright, and he speaks very straightforwardly." , please don’t take offense.”

"What he means is that there has been a lot of delay at this time. The people in Yizhou are uneasy, worried that they have gone to Zhanglu, and now they are coming to Xiliang. It’s not so good, it’s no different from the gangsters, so it’s causing panic now.”

"If things go on like this, Yizhou and Hanzhong will probably have people in chaos and disorder, and the possibility of bandits breeding will inevitably be chaos."

"Therefore, my lord and the counselors under his command are all quite anxious, worried about the political chaos and the people's worries, so they want to ask Che Qi, when the soldiers and horses currently stationed in Hanzhong, when will they retreat?"

"If you don't retreat, can you tell me what happened? What we said in Yizhou at the beginning is not the case. If you tell me, you can go back and return your order, and return Cheqi's reputation of keeping his promises and being eager for justice."

With a warm smile on Li Yan's face, he said these words slowly, as if he was steadily handing a tray to Xu Zhen.

Xu Zhen was quite surprised by this kind of bearing and eloquence in conversation. As expected, Yizhou still has a lot of talents. In recent years, not only is there a wealth of products, but also a lot of family education raised in the local area.

Back then, the number of people who followed Liu Yan into Yizhou for refuge was countless, including many talents from different schools of thought. For example, brothers Xu Jing and his family all came here.

After more than ten years of peaceful days that were not affected by the war, the development is naturally growing.

"Then, what does Zhengfang think?"

Xu Zhen threw it back, but before Li Yan could speak, Huang Quan immediately scolded him again, "Do you still need to ask?"

"Of course it is to keep the promise of the year, to withdraw from this place immediately, and to return Hanzhong to Yizhou, otherwise—"

"Otherwise what can I do?" Xu Zhen smiled proudly, staring at Huang Quan with a playful face, "Do you want to send troops to fight me?"

"Can your Excellency decide on such an important matter? If yes, I will agree immediately, and Dian Wei will see the guests off!"

"No no no no!"

The corner of Li Yan's mouth twitched suddenly, and the smile on Fazheng's face froze.

Damn Huang Gongheng, although you are a celebrity and have a clean and upright style, there is no need to be so high in front of this man!
It's really unnecessary, just say a few words, and we're about to finish the talk!
Maybe there will be a turning point, now that you just say a few words to start a war, the lord doesn't dare to start a war, don't you understand?
Everyone who beat Zhang Lu was almost attacked to the gate of Chengdu, and the five buckets of rice Taoism almost forced our regime to disappear.

How did you manage to talk to Xu Zhen! ?
"No, Cheqi calm down!"

Fazheng stepped forward immediately, trying to stabilize Xu Zhen.

Li Yan's face was flushed there, this is the hidden danger caused by the discord between each other before coming here, so there was no communication.

I knew that before coming here, we should all meet each other, and let each other breathe before entering the government office. At least this kind of situation will not happen. If I finally get it back, you will destroy it again.

It's a good thing that this person has integrity, and it's also a good thing to be angry at other people's shameless atrocities. The problem lies in this family background.

Xu Zhen's family background is strong, so he dared to do this, and he was a person who made up his mind before making a move, otherwise, how could he go from being a white man to this position of chariot?

He must have thought about the consequences before he did this.

He is really shameless.

For him, the reputation of the people in Shu is definitely not something that he cannot give up. After all, his family background is too strong.

If the kind of princes who have no footholds urgently need a territory to stabilize the team, then they can be insulted and then negotiate the price.

But this...

It would be a sin to speak louder with him!
"Cheqi, Huang Quan can't be the master, but we can take all the words back, so the matter in Hanzhong is still decided by Cheqi."

"That's right, I didn't come here this time to ask questions, but just to ask Che Qi to give a clear indication."

In desperation, Li Yan cupped his hands and bowed, speaking sincerely.
