I, Liu Bian, Sanxing Han Dynasty

Chapter 114 Guan Yunchang

After Zhang Wen is taken care of, the next matter of issuing official documents through the Chancellor's Desk will be easy to handle.

The Sangong's Mansion has things to do with the thief Cao Cao and the law to punish the Cao Master. The General's Mansion also has assassinations and external assassinations. These are not useful at ordinary times, but they can be put to use when needed.

With Zhang Wen taking the lead, Guan Yu's rapidly increasing reputation in recent days, the Eastern Han version of political correctness, and Liu Bian's support, the official document was quickly completed.

Since the Imperial Guard cannot be built from the top down, Liu Bian will build it from the bottom up.

After settling the matter, Liu Bian summoned the busy Guan Yu.

In addition to praising his achievements these days, he also expressed his firm support for him: "Yun Chang will definitely face many risks if he goes here. Whenever he encounters anything difficult to handle, Yun Chang can tell me."

"Shang Shuling is my teacher. Yun Chang can submit a letter directly. If it is urgent, you can also ask your brother to go to the East Palace to find Cao Song, the leader of the army, to convey the news."

"Yun Chang remembers that as long as I know, I will never stand idly by."

Guan Yu solemnly raised his hands and said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely clean up the traitors for Your Highness during this trip."

"Not only for me, but also for the people of the world." Liu Bian said this, feeling a little happy in his heart.

"only!"

Liu Bian added: "Yun Chang and the soldiers have made great contributions these days. I have some silk here, and I should take 3,000 pieces of silk as a reward. Yun Chang's contribution cannot be rewarded with simple wealth. I will wait for this trip." If you succeed, you should also take credit for it."

Even if each person was only given three bolts of silk and more than two thousand yuan from the eight hundred units of the Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion, it would be enough for them to have two or three months of food and money.

Guan Yu did not make concessions for his soldiers. He knew the role of these rewards very well, so he only declined for himself: "I was originally just a small official. If I didn't have His Majesty's favor, how could I have become a general of chariots and cavalry? What I have done now. These things are all part of the job and cannot be counted as merit.”

"Rewards and punishments have been rewarded, there is nothing to refuse..."

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and Guan Yu left in high spirits.

……

Rewarded with silk, Liu Bian only moved his words, and soon his order was passed to Zhao Zhong.

Because Liu Bian still lived in Changqiu Palace, Empress Dowager Dong also sent the silk silk directly to Changqiu Palace, and these silk silks were placed in the warehouse of the Queen's Changqiu Palace.

Although the silk is valuable, Zhao Zhong's family is rich and will not get into trouble at this time.

He called Sun Lun of the Xiaohuang Gate and ordered: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been ordered to reward Sima Guan Yu, the chariot and cavalry general, with three thousand pieces of silk and silk. It is up to you to deliver them. In recent days, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been conducting a strict investigation on corruption. Remember Come on, if one piece of these three thousand pieces of silk is missing, I will blame you!"

Sun Lun heard this and said flatteringly: "In the past, we could keep one thousand, but now it's not enough to only keep three to five hundred horses? We keep these to honor our regular servants!"

Zhao Zhong sneered and said: "You have to be destined to honor me. Don't forget Guan Yu's reputation outside the palace. Do you think he dare not punish you for the evidence of crime that is brought to your door?"

Sun Lun was greedy for these silks, but thinking of Zhao Zhong's warning, he did not dare to be greedy for ink this time.

On the other side, after Guan Yu left the palace, he first went to the Chariot General's Mansion and told Chang Shi about Prince Leyin's reward for the general's Mansion.

The prince had rewarded him once at the end of last year, but that time it was in the public account. This time, the reward came from the prince's private treasury, so the response was naturally different. After leaving the Cavalry General’s Mansion, we headed straight to Nanshi. He sat in the pavilion until it was dark, and there were no more people to complain about their grievances.

At this time, Guan Yu set out to meet Liu Bei and Zhang Fei. He will leave Luoyang soon. Last time it was Liu Bei and Zhang Fei who left, but this time it is Guan Yu.

Although they were separated again, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were very happy for Guan Yu.

Zhang Fei said: "I can always hear my second brother's name elsewhere these days. If I hadn't been in the army and couldn't leave, I would really want to be with my second brother!"

Liu Bei also warned: "There are many powerful people in Henan. Chief Yun must be careful and guard against villains' tricks."

Guan Yu nodded: "Brother, don't worry. In recent days, scoundrels have repeatedly lied about being bullied and want to use my power to bully others! Fortunately, my people have become more and more skilled in investigating and collecting evidence in recent days. It was quickly discovered that they were cheating.”

"And the final conviction and trial of the criminals will ultimately be handed over to Sili Xiaowei and Tingwei. Although Sili Xiaowei Zhang Gong has a softer character, he can eventually withstand the pleadings of the powerful. Tingwei Qingyang Gong is fair and honest, and can Deal with it impartially.”

Although Guan Yu hates evil and is willing to uphold justice, he does not think that whoever is weak is justified without reason.

Zhang Fei said with emotion: "Although they are all across the countryside, the powerful families cannot be compared with the wealthy families who have passed down poems and books. I see that the cases handled by the second brother during this period basically did not involve any wealthy celebrities who have a good reputation in the countryside."

As Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei became prominent, many people saw that they had a bright future, and there were many people who took the initiative to make friends with them.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu were fine, but Zhang Fei, who loved and respected gentlemen, always refused to accept anyone who came, and was courteous to others. The people he made friends with were often talented and well-born.

Although Liu Bei and Guan Yu warned him, Zhang Fei never changed. Due to their brotherly bond, it was difficult for the two to rebuke them harshly.

Guan Yu did not have Zhang Fei's filter for scholar-bureaucrats, celebrities, and gentlemen. After listening to Zhang Fei's emotion, he thought of the cases he had been exposed to these days.

He said seriously: "Is the reason why the wealthy family has a good reputation really because they have never done anything evil? I don't think so, otherwise how could they have more and more farm slaves? There are few cases involving them now, just because They are good at hiding, I haven't found any evidence of their crime yet. Third brother should be cautious when dealing with scholars in the future, especially those who like extravagance."

Zhang Fei was shocked when he heard this, not because of Guan Yu's persuasion. He said anxiously: "Second brother, do you want to be a cruel official? What should I do? Since ancient times, how can cruel officials have any good endings?"

He turned his head again and asked Liu Bei for help: "Brother, please persuade second brother!"

To deal with powerful people who don't write poems and books is to eliminate harm for the people and to make a name for themselves.

But if you want to target the rich and powerful families who inherit the classics, they are damn cruel officials. Once a flaw is revealed, they will be attacked by a group of people.

But Liu Bei did not persuade Guan Yu as Zhang Fei expected, but asked Guan Yu: "Second brother, have you thought about it?"

Guan Yu nodded heavily and said: "I have seen too many injustices during this period. I was able to avenge them with my blood and courage, but more people could only endure it. Is this what they are willing to do? It's just that Because they can’t find a way.”

"Now that I have the ability, I should become their support!"

Liu Bei held Guan Yu's hand and said solemnly: "Yun Chang has such ambitions, but how can I let you only focus on benevolence and righteousness, but just live and die together!"

Zhang Fei said nothing and extended his hand.
