Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 5 Aspire to Qingzhou, why not be afraid of the weather

Zheng Ping said: "This man's surname is Liu, his name is Bei, and his style name is Xuande. He is from Zhuo County, Zhuo County, Youzhou. He is the son of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, after Liu Sheng, King Jing of Zhongshan, and the eldest grandson of Liu Xiong, the county magistrate of Fan County in Dong County. He is also the current Gaotang County of Pingyuan County. County lieutenant!"

Zheng Xuan said, "I've heard about Fan County magistrate Liu Xiong and his eldest son Liu Hong."

"Both the father and the son were born in Xiaolian, quite virtuous, but it is a pity that both of them died young."

"Liu Bei is the eldest grandson of Liu Xiong and the eldest son of Liu Hong. He has a family tradition and is admired by Xianmou. His virtue must not be too bad."

"It's just that Liu Bei is almost thirty now, but he is only a county captain, and he has no reputation for filial piety. He is still far behind Liu Xiong and his son."

"Even if there is an old man who helps him become famous, how can he replace Jiao He?"

Zheng Xuan is not stupid.

Zheng Ping didn't want Jiao He to stay in the governor's position for too long, and wanted Zheng Xuan to make Liu Bei famous. He wanted the famous officials in Qingzhou to recommend Liu Bei to be the governor of Qingzhou temporarily.

Now the emperor of Han was hijacked into Chang'an by Dong Zhuo, and the world was chaotic, and he often acted in a hurry.

As long as they are recommended by famous officials in the prefectures and counties, and recommended by the officials of the prefectures, virtuous talents can be appointed to important positions in the prefectures and prefectures.

Just like when the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou were in trouble in Yanzhou, Yuan Shao played Cao Cao as the prefect of Dongjun, Gongsun Zan played Tian Kai as the governor of Qingzhou, Yuan Shao played Zang Hong as the governor of Qingzhou, and Tao Qian also played Liu Bei as the governor of Yuzhou when Liu Bei was attached to Tao Qian.

Although the official positions of the prefects of the Governor's County of these states are fake positions that are not recognized by the court, they can control people's hearts and guard one side.

Zheng Ping chuckled: "Father, there were nursery rhymes in Huan Ling's time."

"I don't know the books when I am a talented person. I am a filial piety, and my father lives away. Han Su is as clear as mud, and Gao Diliang is as timid as a chicken."

"Jiao He is a filial and honest official, and he is also a famous official here. Even his father once praised him full of praise, but this Jiao He has managed Qingzhou, which is full of soldiers and food, into a hill full of hungry people and bandits. The realm of ruins."

"Although Liu Bei is not known for being filial and honest, he has the ambition to help the country, treats people sincerely, and is sympathetic to the people. He also has the courage to personally fight the enemy!"

"It's a pity that I was born at an untimely time. In this era when it is easy to be promoted to be an official, it is very difficult to be promoted. If it was the Qin Emperor and Han Wu period, Liu Bei, who dared to fight the enemy, would have been famous all over the world. .”

Zheng Ping gave Liu Bei a lower limit for seeking talents.

Become Gao Tang Ling!
Today's Prime Minister of Pingyuan is Yingchuan Chen Ji, who is known as the "Three Monarchs". It is not difficult for Liu Bei to become Gaotang Ling.

It won't be long before Liu Bei will come to Gaomi County.

Now that he has the idea of ​​​​choosing Liu Bei, Zheng Ping will naturally not, as Zheng Xuan said, "bow down and keep his points, waiting for the right time."

The weather is not in Liu, only against the will of God!
Liu Bei has the style of a benevolent master, and he is also accompanied by fierce generals.

Zheng Xuan is a well-known official in Qingzhou, his virtue is even to avoid the yellow scarf, and his disciples are more than a thousand.

Zheng Ping has the ambition and strategy to pacify the world.

As long as these resources are integrated, why is Zheng Ping afraid that the weather will not be with Liu?

Now that he traveled to the end of the Han Dynasty, Zheng Ping didn't want to waste his time and let the old thief Sima leave his name.

The wise man fights wits, the brave fights bravely, and the ambition is carried out throughout his life, so he is worthy of the background of the son of this famous official!

Seeing Zheng Ping's respect for Liu Bei, Zheng Xuan thought about it for a while, and said: "It's not impossible to let the old man help Liu Bei to make his name, but the old man has to meet Liu Bei in person to make a decision!"

Zheng Ping said with a smile: "It's natural. If Liu Bei doesn't come to see his father, how can he convince others? Father, just wait a few days, and news will come naturally."

Seeing that Zheng Ping was ready, Zheng Xuan didn't ask any more questions, and mentioned the matter of marriage: "Xianmou, since you are planning to stay in Qingzhou, both for public and private purposes, marrying Kong Wenju's daughter will be beneficial to you and not harmful at all! "

"Father, please don't mention this matter again! A man only suffers from fame but not a wife." Zheng Ping interrupted: "What's more, Kong Beihai's daughter is too young now."

Zheng Xuan stared: "Young? Kong Wenju's daughter has already grown up and is waiting in her boudoir. Don't you want her to grow up for a few more years?"

Zheng Ping nodded and smiled: "Father knows my heart well. If Kong Beihai's daughter is willing to wait for me for a few more years, I will definitely live up to my father's kindness and marry her with generous gifts!"

"You really dare to say it!" Zheng Xuan's beard was raised, and he was obviously angry again: "I'll leave this matter to the old man! If you want the old man to help Liu Bei become famous, you must use Kong Beihai's influence."

"He is the Prime Minister of Beihai recommended by the three prefectures, and he has kindness to the dignitaries and nobles in Qingzhou counties. Without Kong Wenju's help, the old man's reputation alone is not enough for Liu Bei to temporarily act as Qingzhou governor!"

"If you decide, tomorrow I will send your brother to Beihai to propose marriage, otherwise you should go to Xuzhou with this old man!"

Zheng Ping sighed secretly, knowing that he couldn't refuse this matter.

Zheng Xuan was secretly hiding Chen Cang on the Mingxiu plank road, and he was determined to let Zheng Ping marry Kong Rong's daughter.

If you really want to take advantage of Kong Rong's power, why would you need Zheng Ping to marry him!
"Just according to father's will!" Zheng Ping no longer refute, after all, this is not a bad thing.

Zheng Xuan was secretly proud, as Zheng Ping judged, Zheng Xuan had selfish motives.

Although Zheng Ping admired Liu Bei, Zheng Xuan was not familiar with Liu Bei, and worried that Zheng Ping would mistrust him.

Letting Zheng Ping marry Kong Rong's daughter means that Zheng Ping has become the spokesperson for Zheng Xuan and Kong Rong.

No matter what Liu Bei's virtue is, if he wants to gain a foothold in Qingzhou, he has to rely on Zheng Ping to obtain the recommendation of famous officials and county officials in Qingzhou.

"Where is brother?" Zheng Ping asked again.

"I haven't returned from the school." Zheng Xuan suddenly thought of something, and warned again with glaring eyes: "Your brother is modest, not like you ghost spirit, don't play tricks!"

Zheng Ping said with a smile: "Father is worrying too much. I haven't seen my brother for four years. I just went to talk about brotherhood."

Gaotang County.

Chen Ji, Prime Minister of Pingyuan, came to the county government in person.

As for Gao Tangling, who was punished with a cane, he has already been executed with a cane.

After learning that Liu Bei's surprise attack on the Yellow Turban failed and instead encountered an ambush on the way, Chen Ji already guessed the reason.

Gaotang county is not the only one where county officials colluded with yellow scarves.

Of the nine counties in Pingyuan County, Chen Ji found out that officials in six counties have colluded with the Yellow Turbans!
But even so, Chen Ji did not dare to punish easily.

If the plot is not kept secret, even Chen Ji, the Prime Minister of Pingyuan, may be killed.

But now, Gao Tangling has hit a hard nail!

In a short period of time, Liu Bei has already controlled all the county soldiers in Gaotang County.

Poor Gao Tangling couldn't figure out why Liu Bei weaved straw sandals for several county soldiers himself, so that these county soldiers obeyed Liu Bei's advice.

Gao Tangling didn't even understand that a majestic county lieutenant would actually condescend to weave straw sandals for the county soldiers.
Chen Ji waved his hand and asked the soldiers to carry Gao Tangling out, and then looked at Liu Bei who was standing there, with admiration in his eyes: "Xuande, you make the real face look different."
