Soldiers come to the world

Yizhou surrendered the army to Yan Yan for reorganization, Liu Jing then ordered Huang Zhong to lead [-] troops to take over Chengdu's defense, Sima Yi and Jiang Wan took over Yizhou government affairs, and ordered Xu Jing, Dong He, and Liu Ba to assist.

Clean up the documents, take inventory of the treasury, and appease the people. All affairs have a plan beforehand, and everything is implemented in an orderly manner according to the original plan.

In the back hall of the prefectural government office, Yin Mo handed over a box of confidential documents left by Liu Zhang to Liu Jing, "Report to Zhou Mu, there are letters between Liu Jiyu and the royal family in the court, there are also edicts from the emperor, and Liu Jiyu's father and son are here." The forces in the court, Xiaomin sorted out one by one, there is no shortage of one thing, please accept it from the state shepherd!"

Liu Jing was not interested in these confidential documents, he smiled at Yin Ming: "Why do you call yourself 'Xiaomin?'"

Yin Mo sighed for a long while and said, "As a minister, I can't protect my territory, protect my heirs, and make good plans. I'm ashamed."

Liu Jing nodded, "Mr. Yin is an honest man. He persuaded Liu Xun to surrender, but saved hundreds of thousands of people in Chengdu. You should be ashamed."

"Although I say that, the knot in my heart is hard to solve!"

Yin Mo made a long salute and said, "Please let me go to Jingnan with Mr. Xun, the governor of the state."

"That's unnecessary!" [

Liu Jing's attitude was very firm, "Wang Lei would rather die than surrender, and I can only agree to accompany Mr. Xun to Jingnan. If Mr. Yin wants to go, morality will be established. Wouldn't it be necessary to force the Yizhou people to go to Jingnan?" Do officials have to go to Jingnan to go to righteousness? Why should Yin Gong make things difficult for me!"

Yin Mo couldn't say a word, Liu Jing persuaded again: "I know Yin Gong is a great talent, so how about it! How about I hire Yin Gong as my personal staff? Handle the documents for me."

Yin Mo also knew that Liu Jing had saved enough face for himself and gave himself a step up, so he no longer insisted on going to Jingnan, bowed and said: "Yin Mo is willing to share the worries of the state shepherd."

Liu Jing laughed, "That's right."

Yin Mo smiled wryly, and asked again: "Can Zhou Mu tell his subordinates, Xiangyang and Chengdu, where the Zhou Mu will be stationed in the future?"

Liu Jing said: "To be honest, I have been troubled by this matter, can Mr. Yin give me a suggestion?"

Yin Ming smiled and said, "I'll give you three reasons, and Zhou Mu can decide for himself."

"Please say!"

Yin Mo pondered for a while, and said slowly: "First, Yizhou is initially settled, and people's hearts are unstable, especially the counties and counties in Yizhou and the major families are mostly on the sidelines. It is difficult to determine; secondly, although the state shepherd led Yizhou himself, after all, the imperial court did not admit it. If the state shepherd left Yizhou, the imperial court would take the opportunity to appoint a new Yizhou shepherd, which would be detrimental to the state shepherd, and Cao Cao would also take the opportunity If you fan the flames in Yizhou, there may be accidents; thirdly, the goal of the state herd should be to continue to go north, capture Hanzhong, and close Guanzhong. If there is no Yizhou as the foundation, it may be difficult to implement. The above three reasons are for the state herd to decide !"

Liu Jing laughed loudly, "Sir, you know my heart too!"

After settling down in the official room, Liu Jing immediately received the officials of Yizhou in the lobby. Under the leadership of Wu Yi and Fei Guan, everyone bowed down to the hall to meet the new owner of Yizhou. Liu Jing waved his hand and said with a smile to everyone: "Yizhou is not The Yizhou of my Liu Jing is also the Yizhou of everyone present here. I not only hope that everyone can live and work in Yizhou in peace and contentment, but also hope that all of you here can take a longer view and do your part to help the great Han and revitalize the Han Dynasty. "

In front of the generals, Liu Jing spoke bluntly, for fear that the big bosses would not understand, but in front of these sharp-minded civil servants, he spoke very reservedly, and he believed that everyone could understand what he meant.

How could everyone not understand Liu Jing's meaning? Not only will they protect their interests in Yizhou, but they will also give them a share of the interests of the world. Do your best!"

There is a vast house in the north of Chengdu. This is the mansion of the Zhang family in Chengdu. Before the Fei family gained power, the Zhang family had always been the largest family in Shu County. Their family owned thousands of hectares in the north of Shu County. There is a manor covering an area of ​​over a thousand acres in a good field.

The Zhang Mansion in Chengdu is just a separate residence of their family. Even so, the Zhang Mansion has become the second largest mansion in Chengdu after the State Shepherd Mansion. In the past, there was a lot of traffic and visitors in front of the mansion, but since don’t drive Zhang Song After being killed, the front of Zhang's house suddenly became deserted, and everyone avoided it, for fear of being implicated in Zhang Song's case. [

There is a small Zhang Mansion next to the Zhang Mansion, covering an area of ​​about [-] mu. It is the mansion of Zhang Ren. After the surrender of Kaesong in Chengdu, every household placed incense cases in front of the gate to welcome Liu Jing into the city, including the gate of the Zhang family mansion. There was also an incense table in front of him, but Zhang Ren's mansion closed the door tightly and ignored it.

In the evening, hundreds of cavalry guarded a carriage and slowly stopped in front of Zhang Ren's mansion. A soldier rushed up the steps and knocked on the door. After a while, the door opened a crack, "Who is it?" asked the gatekeeper.

"Please tell your master that Liu Zhoumu is here to visit!"

After being stunned for a long while, the gatekeeper yelled and rushed towards the inner mansion like a gust of wind. . . . . . .

"Father!"

Zhang Ren's eldest son, Zhang Run, was so out of breath that he rushed to the courtyard of the inner hall. In the courtyard, Zhang Ren was sitting under a pear tree reading a book. Pure white petals.

Zhang Ren glanced at his eldest son, and said with some displeasure, "What's the matter?"

"Father...Liu Zhoumu is here and wants to visit father outside the gate of the house."

Zhang Ren was slightly taken aback, and was a little surprised in his heart, but in front of his son, he didn't show any surprise in his heart, and scolded with a straight face: "Even if the king of heaven is here, you don't have to be so excited!"

Zhang Run trembled in fright, and quickly lowered his hands and said, "Yes! My child knows it's wrong."

Zhang Ren waved his hand, "Tell him, I'm sick, don't see me!"

"Father!"

Zhang Run shouted in a low voice, he didn't move, how could his father reject Liu Jing like this.

Zhang Ren glanced at his son and saw that his eyes were filled with anticipation, so he couldn't help but soften his heart, so he said in a drawn-out voice: "Please invite him to the living room! Tell me I'll come out right away."

Although it was still polite, it was much better than seeing him just now. Zhang Run quickly turned around and ran out of the mansion. Zhang Ren was very conflicted. On the one hand, he was dissatisfied that Liu Jing had captured Yizhou. He, Zhang Ren, was just the concubine of the Zhang family. Back then, when the Zhang family showed respect to him, Liu Zhang built him a mansion next to the Zhang family as a way of expressing his gratitude. Zhang Ren will always remember this kindness in his heart.

But on the other hand, Liu Xun really didn't live up to expectations, and Zhang Ren could see through him. If he were the lord of Yizhou, Yizhou would definitely be tossed into chaos by him. In contrast, Liu Jing's His courage and skill made him admire again, and made him realize that Liu Jing is the truly talented and bold person, the master worthy of his trust, not to mention that Liu Jing is still his junior, but. . . . . .

Zhang Ren understood his son's expectant eyes, and he felt so helpless that he had to get up and go to the living room.

Zhang Ren ordered his son to welcome Liu Jing into the guest room, but Zhang Run welcomed Liu Jing all the way into the noble guest room. He asked Liu Jing to sit down, and personally served Liu Jing hot tea. , father will come right away!"

Liu Jing nodded and asked, "Mr. Zhang, can you become an official?"

Zhang Run's heart skipped a beat, and he said hastily, "I used to be the chief bookkeeper in Xindu County for a year. My father said that I was an official and couldn't benefit the people, so he 'forced' me to retire."

He used the word 'forced', and his tone was full of unwillingness and regret. Liu Jing smiled and shook his head and said: "The county magistrate should be evaluated by the county, and reported to the state government to decide whether to appoint or dismiss. This is a public matter, it should not be a public matter. Private."

When Liu Jing's words touched Zhang Run's heart, the sadness in his heart suddenly came out, his eyes were a little red, "Zhou Mu is right! Business should be done in a fair manner."

Liu Jing smiled again and said: "I will remember this matter, I will let the state government review it again, and give you a fair chance."

Zhang Run was overjoyed, but also very moved. He bowed deeply, his voice choked up, "Thank you Zhou Mu for your concern."

He was full of gratitude to Liu Jing in his heart, and he also knew that if his father and Liu Jing were at odds, his official career would be over. Before his father arrived, he lowered his voice and said, "Father is grateful to Liu Zhang, and he values ​​the state shepherd's treatment of Liu Zhang very much." respect."

Liu Jing smiled and nodded, "Thank you very much!"

At this time, footsteps came from outside, and Zhang Ren walked in quickly. He went to the living room first, but learned that his son had invited Liu Jing to the guest room, so he had to make another big detour. Zhang Run felt guilty and saluted : "Father, the child will step back first."

Zhang Ren gave him a hard look, and said in a drawn out voice, "Go!"

At this time, Liu Jing got up and cupped his hands with a smile, "Come here uninvited, I'm disturbing General Zhang."

Zhang Ren returned the gift indifferently, "Zhou Mu came to Zhang's house in person, Zhang can't afford it, please sit down!"

Liu Jing sat down, Zhang Ren also sat down in the main seat, the living room was silent, at this time, the maid brought two cups of hot tea, Zhang Ren took a sip of the tea, and finally broke the silence in the hall, "Zhang Ren is also from Chengdu. Xiaomin, thank the state shepherd for not massacring the city, and of course, also thank the Jingzhou army for not committing crimes."

Liu Jing smiled and said: "This is also the result I expected. It should be said that Mr. Xun cares about the people. Although he failed, he is still a hero."

This sentence was very polite, Zhang Ren felt Liu Jing's modesty, he nodded and asked again: "I wonder how the state shepherd plans to arrange for Mr. Xun?"

"I have named him Zhenwu Captain, and allowed him to lead his mother and family to live in Gong'an, and pay the taxes of Gong'an's county to his mother for the elderly."

Liu Jing still remembered Liu Zhang's wife, which made Zhang Ren's expression slightly calmer. He sighed and said, "It's a pity that Liu Zhang is too mediocre, and such a good land of abundance has not been able to use it, otherwise the Jingzhou army may not be able to take advantage of it." Invade Yizhou."

"How do you say this? This is the difference between the way of kingship and the way of benevolence. Liu Zhang may not be mediocre. I think he should rule by himself, but he has a weakness. His weakness is that he is too sympathetic to the people and refuses to use force. If he believes in the way of kingship, Yizhou can support at least 30 troops, not to mention that if I can’t attack Yizhou, I’m afraid I can’t even keep Jingzhou.”

Zhang Ren sighed, "It's fair for Zhou Mu to comment on him like this. I don't know if Zhou Mu intends to recruit 30 troops in Yizhou?"

Liu Jing looked up to the sky and burst out laughing, then stopped laughing, and said lightly: "General Zhang must have also learned about my heavy armored infantry, these two thousand heavy armored infantry are enough to withstand ten thousand cavalry, and the Jingzhou navy, it can be said The enemy of the world, I still have 30 elite cavalry, and [-] eagle strike troops, and I am preparing to equip [-] heavy crossbow troops. With these troops, does General Zhang think I will recruit [-] troops?"

Zhang Ren nodded, "Zhou Mu is right. Soldiers should be skilled but not in the crowd. I agree very much."

The two were silent for a moment, and Zhang Ren asked again: "Is Zhou Mu an apprentice of Master Yu?"

Liu Jing smiled, "I can only learn halfway. I was indeed taught by Master Yu himself. He designated me as a water gun, but he didn't formally accept me as an apprentice, but Zilong never forgot about the general."

After finishing speaking, Liu Jing took out two things from his bosom and put them on the table, stood up and said with a smile, "Then I won't bother you any more, and I'll take my leave!"

Zhang Ren did not keep Liu Jing out of the mansion, and watched Liu Jing go away. He hurried back to the guest room and picked up the two items Liu Jing left on the table. One was Wen Yu, and Zhang Ren recognized it at a glance. Master's Peiyu has been worn by Master for 60 years.

He held the jade pendant, his hands trembled violently, and slowly knelt down, thinking of the kindness Master had shown him, and he could no longer repay him, tears came out of his eyes, and he couldn't help crying out, "Master!"

After a long while, Zhang Rencai carefully asked Yu to put it in his arms, wiped away his tears, got up and picked up another item on the table, it turned out to be a letter of appointment from Liu Jing, making him a general of Zhonglang, Zhang Ren couldn't help but sigh One sound, now that things have come to an end, he knows that he can no longer refuse Liu Jing's sincerity.
