Three Kingdoms in a box

Chapter 134

After listening to the officer's words, Gao Jun's eyes brightened a bit. It made sense. The bandit from Jitoushan captured Captain Pan alive instead of killing him. It was obvious that he had some agenda.

In other words, regardless of whether they are asking for money or something else, they do not want to do too much anyway. In this case, there is room for repayment in this matter. Thinking of this, Gao Jun nodded and said: "What you said is so extreme." Yes, it seems that my Lord, I really want to have a talk with these bandits, but."

At this point, Gao Jun paused and said, "These bandits are extremely vicious. Who should we send to discuss with them?"

After hearing this, the yamen servant was about to speak when he heard a yamen servant report from outside: "Your Majesty, County Magistrate Tian wants to see you!"

"Why is he here? No see!"

When Gao Jun mentioned Tian Feng now, he became very angry. How could he have any idea of ​​seeing him? At this moment, Gao Jun said with a black face and disappeared. Hearing this, the yamen officer turned to leave, but suddenly Gao Jun's face turned black and said: "That's it, let him Come in, I’d better meet him!”

After hearing this, the officer nodded and said, "Yes."

Soon Tian Feng came in. Gao Jun kept a dark face. Tian Feng was not surprised to see Gao Jun like this. After all, this is what Gao Jun should look like. If Gao Jun looked at him with a smile, Fang would make him very uncomfortable. I even doubted whether there was a conspiracy.

Tian Feng came in and cupped his hands to Gao Jun and said, "I have met the county magistrate."

Gao Jun raised his eyelids and glanced at Tian Feng and said, "Well, sit down."

"promise."

Tian Feng sat down, and then Gao Jun said: "Why are you here with me? Could it be that you have also gained faith?"

After Tian Feng heard this, he immediately bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I also know about County Captain Pan's suppression of bandits. This defeat shows how arrogant and domineering the bandits in Jitou Mountain are. There can never be any tolerance for such a serious problem, so I think that you and I should jointly report to the court, saying how ferocious the bandits are, and asking the court to send out a large army as soon as possible to suppress the bandits! To ensure peace in the area."

After listening to Tian Feng's words, Gao Jun glanced at Tian Feng indifferently, and then said coldly: "Tian County Prime Minister is determined to harm me!"

Tian Feng was stunned, why did the county magistrate say this? How could I frame the magistrate?

This, I'm afraid there's a misunderstanding here!

Misunderstand?

What a misunderstanding, let me ask you: "I said not to do this thing of suppressing bandits, but you insisted on doing it. Now it's fine. The army of suppressing bandits was defeated miserably. That is the responsibility of me, the county magistrate, which caused such a big problem in the place." Because of the cholera, I'm afraid my path to advancement will be cut off. When the time comes, not to mention me, even Governor Han will follow suit, and I don't understand."

"What good does this do to you? The gangsters in Jitou Mountain are not trying to kill officials and rebel. They just want to survive in the mountains and rivers. Why can't you spare their lives?"

"Governor Han, I can say that I have been kind to you. I took on the responsibility of offending the eunuchs and asked you to return to your official career. It is such a great favor. You don't want to report it, but you want to provoke him during his term of office." Feng Yu, this Guang'a County is under the jurisdiction of Julu County, if I have a problem here, can Governor Han be able to escape from it?"

"I don't understand. Do you hate Commander Han so much?"

"And I, since you came to Guang'a County, this county has been extremely patient with you. I will do whatever you say. You joined forces with County Captain Pan to stand up to me, and I didn't resist. I allowed you two to do whatever you wanted. , But what did I get in exchange? What I got in exchange was that you cut off my official career and ruined my future. I can tolerate such a big hatred for the time being, but you have harmed me again and again."

"Yes, I can't afford to offend you, the Tian family, the Julu wealthy family, but you can't treat me too little as a human being. I can endure it once or twice, but you can't make me endure it every time. I just want to live in peace. My little official, be my county magistrate and revitalize my family, so Tian County Cheng, I beg you, please don't bother me? Can you spare my life?"

Magistrate Gao looked at Tian Feng with a forlorn expression, but Tian Feng looked at Gao Jun with a shocked expression and said, "Magistrate Gao, is this how you miss me?"

Gao Jun said: "Then how do you want me to miss you?"

Tian Feng said: "I thought Magistrate Gao was a good official who asked for orders for the people. Now that there is such a big disaster in the county, Magistrate Gao should be very anxious and eager to eliminate the harm for the people. Now I am taking the lead in doing this." , everything is done out of public motives, absolutely no selfishness!"

"Yes, everything you do is out of public interest, so I am just doing it selfishly. Now that the suppression of bandits has caused a big disaster, I want to calm it down and stop causing trouble. I beg Tian County Magistrate not to report it. Just leave this matter to me and don’t make it a big deal, okay?”

Tian Feng frowned when he heard this and said: "But the matter has become serious. Pan County Lieutenant has been captured by the thieves. The dignified Han County Lieutenant has been captured by the thieves. This is something that damages the prestige of our Han Dynasty. How can it be a child's play? For now The plan is to report to the court and ask the court to send generals, so that they can win in one battle and win. Only in this way can they make up for their mistakes. Only when the review is re-examined in the future can they give Magistrate Gao a hope of continuing to rise. The magistrate thought that Or not?"

After hearing this, Gao Jun said with a dark face: "I am not as rich as the Prime Minister of Tian County. No matter how much trouble I make, someone will clean up the mess. I don't agree to report this matter. Don't talk about me. Even Sheriff Han will never do it." This matter will be reported to the authorities, so don’t worry about it, I will take care of the rest!"

"Are you here to deal with the aftermath? How do you want to deal with the aftermath?"

Tian Feng looked at Gao Jun and asked. Gao Jun frowned slightly and said, "What should I do and report to County Magistrate Tian?"

Tian Feng frowned and said, "I don't want to agree. I don't agree with this matter!"

Gao Jun said: "From now on, the county is responsible for everything in this county. You are the county magistrate, not the county magistrate. Please remember, I am the magistrate of Guang'a County, and you are just my deputy." !

We don’t allow you to make the final decision on matters in Guang’a County!

When Tian Feng heard this, he frowned coldly, with anger in his eyebrows: "What are you going to do?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

Gao Jun said, after hearing this Tian Feng shouted angrily: "Okay, okay, don't forget, I am from the Julutian family!"

Gao Jun stood up slowly at this time, stared at Tian Feng and said: "Then don't forget, I am also a member of the ancient literature school, and you are a member of the Tian family. I have given you three points, but if you try to push your limits, , Even though our ancient scripture literature school is weak, not everyone can step on us!"

"high and steep!"

Tian Feng was forced into a corner at this time and shouted angrily: "Gao Jun." Gao Jun sneered: "From today on, all matters in Guang'a County will be decided by this county. There are no bandits in Guang'a County, just There was a small accident and some insignificant county soldiers died. As for County Captain Pan, I will save him!"

"Gao Jun, you actually want to compromise with the bandits. You serve as a county magistrate in vain. When you are an official, you don't want to protect the country and the people, but only want to be wise and protect yourself. I am ashamed of you!"

Gao Jun laughed loudly and said: "You can say it, say it to your heart's content. Anyway, I have the final say on this matter! You can retreat!"

Tian Feng was almost going crazy. He looked at Gao Jun and said, "Okay, okay, Gao Jun, you are such a magistrate of Guang'a County. You actually have to compromise with the gangsters for the sake of your official position. It is really a shame for a man. I am ashamed to be associated with you." !”

Tian Feng roared angrily, and Gao Jun burst out laughing after hearing this: "You are ashamed to be with me, and I am ashamed to be with you. You, Tian Yuanhao, are noble and amazing. I can't afford to play with you, okay?"

Gao Jun also roared angrily. After hearing this, Tian Feng left Ting County Yamen without saying a word and with a dark look on his face.

He was really incredibly angry now, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Seeing Tian Feng like this, the yamen servant who followed him whispered: "Why should your lord be angry? Since Kochi County is unwilling to report to the court, why don't you bypass Kochi County and report it to the court?"

Hearing this, Tian Feng glanced at the Yamen servant, and the Yamen servant said: "Your Excellency is different from the county magistrate. Your Excellency is from a noble family. He belongs to an aristocratic family in our Julu County. With the influence of the Tian family, not to mention the mere county magistrate, he is the county governor. Also treat it with caution.”

"In addition, County Sheriff Han is also the person who has been conquered by you. If you bypass the county magistrate and report the situation to County Sheriff Han, I think the county magistrate will also help you. The thoughts of such a high county magistrate are no longer important!"

The yamen servant looked at Tian Feng and said. Tian Feng smiled bitterly upon hearing this and said nothing. He just dragged his tired body towards his county magistrate's yamen.

Relying on family strength to bypass Gao Jun and get the matter done?
How is this possible? Even if he is a direct descendant of the Tian family, he still can't do it!

You must know that the most important thing for a large family is inheritance, whether the family can be passed down, not how a certain family member is.

Just like in the Three Kingdoms period in later generations, major families arranged their children separately. For example, in the famous Zhuge family, Zhuge Jin lived in Jiangdong, Zhuge Liang lived in Shu, and the third child, Zhuge Dan, defected to Wei.

One sect joins the three kingdoms, although each has its own master, it can ensure the prosperity of the Zhuge family. If any country wins in the end, the Zhuge family can be preserved.

The various warlords of the Three Kingdoms also acquiesced in this behavior, because many aristocratic families did this, and these aristocratic families who came over were reused.

"Taiping Yulan. Ministry of Personnel. Pinzaozhong" records that Zhuge Jin's younger brother Liang and his younger brother were born, and they were famous, each in his own country.At that time, it was thought that Shu had its dragon, Wu its tiger, and Wei its dog.Born in Wei, he is as famous as Xiahou Xuan.Jin was in Wu, and the Wu Dynasty admired his Hongya.

What does it mean? It means that there are three brothers in the Zhuge family, the eldest Zhuge Jin, the second brother Zhuge Liang, and the third brother Zhuge Dan. Although the three brothers are from the same clan, they joined the Three Kingdoms. The second brother Zhuge Liang was reused by Liu Bei and became the Prime Minister of the Shu Han Dynasty. For the dragon.

The eldest brother, Zhuge Jin, worked for Soochow and was trusted and reused by Sun Quan. He was named General of Soochow and was called Tiger.

The third child, Zhuge Dan, defected to Cao Pi and was worshiped as a general of the Wei State. He could be called a dog. The dog here is not a curse, but a meritorious dog. In ancient times, it meant a general with meritorious service.

Three sons from one family will be the future dragons, tigers, and dogs. No matter which path is reused, it will ensure the prosperity of the Zhuge family.

In the same way, the Tian family cannot put their eggs in one basket. The Tian family also has the rules of the Tian family, that is, the children can have a stand when they are outside, but they have to rely on themselves to do things.

The family cannot be implicated. Just like this time, Tian Feng is obviously preparing to have a tough fight with Gao Jun from the Ancient Classics Literature Sect. If he uses the power of the family at this time, it will mean that the Tian family has an attitude.

The big families cannot express their stance easily, otherwise it will be a recipe for death. Once the Ancient Classics Literature Sect rises in the future, what they do today is likely to make the entire family completely shocked by the Ancient Classics Literature Sect. By then, the entire Ancient Classics Literature School will Every clan is at risk of destruction.

This is something that a family will never tolerate, so the Tian family will not help Tian Feng in this matter. Therefore, Tian Feng knows that even if he goes home to ask for help, no one will care about him.

As for Han Fu, the governor of Han County, Tian Feng also knows that he is completely unreliable. Guang'a County is also under the jurisdiction of Julu after all. There are big bandits in Guang'a County, especially those who kill officials and rebel, and can defeat the county soldiers. For him, it is also an easy thing to do.

You must know that in this era, one of the main evaluation criteria for officials is moral education. What is important is that nothing happens on your ground. As long as something happens, no matter whether you are calmed down immediately or not, as far as the court is concerned, you It’s just those who have no way to educate and need to learn from others.

Therefore, if he wanted to take this matter seriously, even if Han Fu was using him, he would definitely not help him. He would even seize his documents and he would not be able to reach Luoyang at all.

Moreover, even if my document arrives in Luoyang by luck, my name has already been registered with Shi Changshi. As long as it is a document submitted by me, Shi Changshi will most likely refute it directly and refuse to approve it.

This is why Tian Feng insisted on dragging Gao Jun to submit a letter together. He hoped that Gao Jun would bring up this matter, so that there would definitely not be any obstruction from Shi Changshi, and he could hide behind everyone and put this matter aside. It's done.

However, no agreement was reached, and the matter suddenly became extremely passive.

Tian Feng rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. This time he was really in trouble!

The family could not pass the exam, the county guard was not easy to use, the group of eunuchs in the court hated him to death, and even Gao Jun now regarded him as an enemy. It was too difficult to turn around in this situation.

However, the bandits in Jitoushan still need to be eliminated, otherwise the entire Guang'a County will never have peace. But now that I have no reliable officials, no family to rely on, and no colleagues to help me, it is impossible for me to achieve results in such a situation. An easy thing.

Tian Feng thought, looking up at the sky, a light flashed in his eyes. Even if this matter was extremely difficult, he would still have to do it. Since the official might not be reliable, he could only think about whether he could rely on other forces.

A wise man will never give up easily.

Tian Feng thinks that he is a smart person, so he is very humane in his actions. If his plan fails, he will try another one!
At this time, Gao Jun in the room also calmed down his emotions. Now it's better. He and Tian Feng have completely broken up. In this case, let's do what he wants!
Thinking of this, Gao Jun said: "Find a way to contact me at Jitoushan."

"promise!"
