Chapter 67
After deciding on the idea of ​​joining forces, Liu Jian saluted Lu Qiang again, saying: "Liu Jian is a scholar, but he has another identity, that is, he is a clan member of the Han family. The people of the Han family, if there is an opportunity in the future, I would like to discuss with the Zhongchang attendant a plan to help His Majesty and save the world!"

When Lu Qiang heard this, he was a little stunned on the spot.

He really didn't expect that Liu Jian actually wanted to make friends with him inside and outside the words.

Normally speaking, this is simply impossible.

His own identity and his identity are destined to be in opposition.

When I was young, I saw Lv Qiang helplessly smile and said: "Xiaolian is dedicated to the country, with lofty aspirations, he is worthy of being a disciple of Shangshu, the son-in-law of Kang Cheng, and I am admired by the old man, but the old man's identity is sensitive and special, after all, it is not easy to have too much contact with Xiaolian , I'm afraid it will delay Xiaolian's future."

"You are welcome, Zhongchang Attendant, just call me Deran."

Lu Qiang sighed softly, and smiled friendlyly: "Little friend Deran, if you don't mind, can you tell me where you live? I'll wait for the time to go and disturb you later."

Liu Jian responded with a smile: "Of course."

Afterwards, he informed Lu Qiang of his current residence, and then left.

Looking at Liu Jian's figure walking further and further away, Lu Qiang couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

Over the years, he, who has been unflattering on three sides, now meets such a scholar who is willing to make friends with him secretly. The excitement and relief in his heart are naturally beyond words.

Of course, with Lu Qiang's status today, if ordinary scholars come to make friends with him and want to help the government with him, Lu Qiang will also dismiss it.

Scholars are not everyone worthy of cooperation with him.

And Liu Jian, a student of Lu Zhi, a native of Zheng Xuezhong, famous as Luo Yang, happened to be from a not very high family background.

For Lu Qiang, if such a person has the same ambition and goal, if they can unite and echo each other, then it is indeed the best.

……

……

In Luoyang City, there is a family on Zhuque Street. It occupies a moderate area, with a small courtyard and simple repairs. Although it is not luxurious, it gives people a very strong and heavy feeling.

This mansion is not the most luxurious in Luoyang, but in terms of reputation, it is definitely one of the best.

Ordinary traffickers and pawns would never approach that mansion easily.

Not for other reasons, just because the name of this mansion is Yuan.

……

now,

In the main hall of Yuan Mansion, Yuan Kai sat at the head, stroking his beard with an indifferent expression.

On the two sides below him, there are young people sitting, all of whom are outstanding people from his sons and nephews.

Yuan Kai's eyes scanned the Yuan family back and forth in the hall, and his eyes stayed on almost everyone's face.

Among these outstanding sons and nephews are Yuan Ji, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Yuan De (Yida), Yuan Dong (Renda), Yuan Ying (Manlai), Yuan Zhong, Yuan Yi, Yuan Yin, Yuan Xu and so on.

Among them, Yuan De (Yida), Yuan Dong (Renda), and Yuan Ying (Manlai) are the direct descendants of Yuan Kai and his wife Ma Lun.

(Note: Yuan Kui's three sons are mentioned in "Cai Yong Collection: Stele of Yuan Manlai, Stele of Mrs. Ma's Madam, Mrs. Situ Yuan", respectively, Yuan Yida, Yuan Renda, and Yuan Manlai. Among them, Yuan Manlai should have died seven years ago in Guanghe. )
Yuan Tang of the Yuan family in Runan had twelve sons in the past. Among them, Yuan Ping was the eldest son, but he was not a descendant. The descendants were Yuan Cheng, Yuan Feng, and Yuan Kai. Among the three, the highest official position was Yuan. Feng and Yuan Kui.

Now, both Yuan Cheng and Yuan Feng are dead, and there are few nephews and nephews in the next generation. In ancient China, a "brother ends up with younger brothers" was emphasized. Because the two elder brothers passed away, Yuan Kai became the suzerain and concurrently the suzerain of the Yuan family in Runan. The speaker, the family resources of hundreds of disciples and old officials of the Yuan family spread all over the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, all of which were commanded and mobilized by him alone.

In April of this year, taking advantage of the emperor's announcement of the incident of harming the people and officials, the Yuan family began to operate behind the scenes, using the means of suing grievances to play a counter-killing game for the emperor. Those who were promoted were all worshiped as Yilang, waiting for a fat job, and the list of the new county magistrate and governor was discussed and arranged by the ministers at the Shangshutai meeting, and the emperor would collect the money again after it was decided.

The powerful got the power, and the emperor got the money.

The emperor's teacher Zhang Ji and his confidant Xu Wei were honorably laid off because of this incident, and Yuan Kai took the opportunity of this three-official exchange to take office again and moved from Taichang to Situ.

It was originally a happy event, but after Yuan Wei became Situ, he was a little anxious.

He is nearly sixty years old, and this time he takes up the position of Sangong again, which may be the last time in his life.

I'm afraid that within a few years, his life will come to an end.

But no one dies, and death is nothing to Yuan Kai to fear.

But the matter of life and death is small, and the power of the Yuan family in Runan is a big matter.

After his death, who will inherit the position of suzerain and talker?To lead the Yuan family's thousands of former disciples all over the world?
Everyone is selfish, and everyone wants to pass on the foundation to their closest relatives, but this is very difficult for Yuan Kai, he can only find another way and change his style of play.

Yuan Kai himself is the youngest of his peers. He and Ma Rong's daughter, Ma Lun, did not have a smooth time in having a child. After taking a lot of medicine and seeking many doctors, Ma Lun was cured at a very old age. He was ill and gave birth to three sons for Yuan Kai.

Therefore, the three descendant sons of Yuan Kai are much younger and more immature than their peers, especially Yuan Ying and Yuan Manlai, who were born in their forties and are only 15 years old now, and they are weak and sick.

On the other hand, although his elder brother Yuan Feng died, the sons he left behind had all grown up and were in the prime of life.

Yuan Ji inherited the title of Marquis of An Guoting. He is the eldest son of Yuan Feng.

There is also a son, Yuan Shu, who is famous for his chivalry, is also good at making friends, and has prestige among the Yuan family's sons and nephews.

The other is Yuan Shao, who was a concubine, who was adopted into Yuan Cheng's house... In terms of family background, he was the lowest, but in terms of character and ability, Yuan Kai thought Yuan Shao was the most powerful.

Yuan Kai looked back and forth between Yuan Ji, Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shao, and fell into deep thought for a while.

In these years, for the great cause of the Yuan family, he has indeed done his best to train the three children of Yuan Feng, but the training is the training, and Yuan Wei has always understood a truth in his heart.

These three nephews were ultimately obstacles to his first family. After his death, the power of the Yuan family in Runan would all belong to Yuan Feng's lineage, and his first family's son might be left behind.

"Uncle! My nephew hasn't finished reporting yet."

A voice brought Yuan Wei back to reality from reverie.

He turned his head and looked, it was his nephew Yuan Xu who was calling him. This person is also Yuan Feng's own son, but like Yuan Shao, he is not a direct descendant, but although his mother is a concubine, she also comes from a rich family, so Yuan Xu was asked to stay in Yuan Feng's house. Fengmenxia also stood still.

"Oh, what did you say just now?" Yuan Kai straightened his face and looked at Yuan Xu.

"Uncle, Xiaolian from all over the world has gathered in the capital. When the list of resumes is announced today, the three Zhonglang will send people to the uncle's house and wait for the uncle to check."

Yuan Kui waved his hand and said: "Don't send it here, there are too many people, and the old man is also a third-rank official. Check the resumes of Xiaolian in various counties. Wouldn't it be a joke to spread it?"

"Where should I send it?" Yuan Xu was a little puzzled, then he looked at Yuan Ji, and said if he had realized something: "Then send it to Brother Shiji's mansion, how about letting brother help uncle choose?"

Shi Ji is Yuan Ji's surname.

When Yuan Ji heard the words, his spirit was shaken. He straightened up and looked at Yuan Kai with expectation.

The Yuan family wanted a Xiaolian resume, so they naturally wanted to choose outstanding people to be their servants, and Yuan Ji was the successor of the next generation Yuan family, so it was naturally most appropriate for him to do this kind of thing.

Yuan Kai's eyes fell on Yuan Ji, and after a little planning, he said:
"Shiji is in an important position, he has worked so hard, and the affairs of the court are not busy enough for him, why do some trivial matters involve his energy? Road, at the beginning!"

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu straightened up at the same time when they heard the words, "Uncle!"

"You two have worked harder. You two have been staying up late these days, and each of you is half. Take a look at Xiaolian's resumes in various places this year. If there is anything you can use for yourself, report it to me later!"

"Here!"

Yuan Ji's complexion was a little uncertain, but he still didn't say much, just calmly dealt with it.

He secretly looked at Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu... but found that Yuan Shu was also peeking at him. Seeing Yuan Ji looking at him, Yuan Shu hurriedly turned his head to look elsewhere.

Yuan Shao didn't look at anyone, but stroked his beard, and sat there with high spirits, as if he stood out from the crowd.

It is true that Yuan Shao is far inferior to Yuan Ji in terms of the identities of their generation, but Yuan Ji knows that in recent years, Yuan Shao has been ignorant of guests on the surface, but in fact he has secretly made friends with party members and chivalrous people, such as Zhang Miao, He Yong, Xu You and the others secretly formed an anti-eunuch alliance. What they did was dangerous, and their reputation among scholars was growing day by day. Yuan Shao was even more famous and respected at home. role model'.

Yuan Kai knew about this a long time ago, and perhaps it was also his instruction.

But no matter what, as Yuan Ji who kept his family and had a vegetarian meal, Yuan Wei would not let Yuan Ji intervene in this matter.

As for Yuan Kai, he only reprimanded Yuan Shao superficially, and at the same time did not intervene.

Yuan Ji didn't feel that this matter would have any impact on him. After all, these days, although the word "model of the world" is a good word among scholars, but in the imperial court, it can be called a model of the world. , are not used by the imperial court, whoever wears the hat of a model in the world, his head may be in danger.

Chen Fan and Li Ying, these are both people who have been role models in the world, which one will end well?

Therefore, Yuan Shao was willing to make a fuss for the family, and Yuan Ji didn't care. He followed him. Anyway, after he became the suzerain in the future, he would be his younger brother.

However, in the past few months, after the emperor began to test the waters and released several fringe party members including Zheng Xuan, Yuan Ji began to feel a little restless.

This is a bad sign.

Although the party prison has not been completely released, it is clear that the emperor has the intention to lift it, and once the party prison is lifted, those party members will be able to become officials, so Yuan Shao, a hero who is advertised by the party people as a "model of the world", will be more and more out of thin air. How far should his reputation develop if he gives a lot of help?
Yuan Ji felt that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu should not threaten his future succession to the position of the suzerain of the Yuan family...but the position of the suzerain cannot be threatened, but they can divide power based on power.

As an animal like human beings, the closer they are to getting something, the more afraid they will lose it accidentally, so it is inevitable that Yuan Ji at this moment will be elusive and worry about gains and losses.

He could more or less feel that his uncle Yuan Kui had been a little unusual in recent years since his father passed away.

He seems to want to disrupt the inherent power model of the Yuan family.

Yuan Ji, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao's expressions at this moment all fell into Yuan Kai's eyes.

He turned his head and looked at his three sons, and thought to himself: If they were to compete head-on, these three sons of his family would definitely not be the opponents of the three nephews Yuan Ji, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu... They are still too young and need to grow up ah!
Thinking of this, Yuan Kai looked at the three brothers Yuan Ji, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu again...

Yuan Ji's weight in the clan is still too great, and he has to work harder to let Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao catch up.

The current situation is chaotic, and I can't push my own sons to the stage. Since the old man is still alive, I will take these three nephews to go to Fengdu in Haoli to clear the way for the Yuan family, but we must not let the three of them become one. Rope, at least after his death, his son can share more authority in the Yuan family... Sigh, it is really difficult and tiring for me to be the suzerain of the Yuan family.

 Today, there are [-] words, please read more, please read more, in addition, Yuan Kai and Ma Lun have three sons, Yida, Renda, Manlai, this is recorded, not invented by me
