Prancing Horse Xiliang
Chapter 169 Visiting the Xun Family
Chapter 169 Visiting the Xun Family
Xiliang cavalry rushed into Nanyang, causing quite a stir.
Not long after the allied forces of the feudal lords fought against Dong Jiezhuo, the flames of war once again set off.
All the princes couldn't figure out what Dong Zhuo was going to do.In particular, the fall of Wancheng caused even more shock.After all, even if there is friction between the princes, it is limited to small-scale military operations in border areas.
The Xiliang army entered the hinterland of Nanyang to attack the city and plunder the land, which is already declaring war.
Now even Wancheng has been destroyed. If it is just a small friction, then the standard of friction is too high.
When the news reached Qiao County, Yuan Shu was of course furious.
When Dong Zhuo received the news, he was also furious and wanted to send Li Li back to Luoyang to question the crime.
The troubles of the Xiliang military group are already big enough, and it is too late to make peace with each and the princes, so as to avoid such disasters as a second crusade by the princes, but Li Li sent people to the hinterland of Nanyang, thinking he was troublesome Not enough?
Fortunately, Niu Fu, Li Jue, Li Ru and others tried their best to dissuade Li Li's military power.
However, Dong Zhuo still condemned his envoy to Wuguan, angrily reprimanded Li Li, and asked Li Li to give an explanation.
It can be said that Li Li was wronged to the extreme, he had never looted Nanyang at all recently, and the cavalry that went into the hinterland of Nanyang was not his Xiliang cavalry at all, and he didn't know who the hell set him up.
After a painstaking explanation, he sent away the envoy sent by Dong Zhuo.
After hearing Li Li's explanation, Dong Zhuo was also a little confused.
Li Li would definitely not lie about such a big matter.
That is to say, the cavalry that broke into Nanyang was not Xiliang cavalry at all.
Dong Zhuo's envoy went to Yuzhou to explain to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu was not sure, but he scolded again.
On the official road from Kunyang to Xiangcheng, two fast horses were running at a constant speed.
Xu Chu straddled his horse like a bear, and asked, "My lord, we will arrive at Xiangcheng in another twenty miles. There are more refugees in Yingchuan than in Nanyang. Do you want to raise more food and grass in Xiangcheng and take in some of them?" Refugees?"
Luo Zhengdao: "No hurry, go to Yangdi first!"
Xu Chu scratched his head and asked puzzledly, "What are you doing in Yangdi, my lord?"
There was a treacherous smile on the corner of Luo Zheng's mouth, and he said: "I'm going to Yangzhai to find some people, and I will go to Yingyin along the way to pick up some tribesmen for Wen Ruo. If you startle the snake, Yingchuan will close the city gates, how to enter city!"
Xu Chu suddenly realized, and said, "I heard that there are many talented people in Yingchuan. I wonder if it's true or not?"
Luo Zhengdao: "Of course it is true. When it comes to talents, there is no one on the right side of Yingchuan in every county in the world. Wen Ruo once recommended several great talents to this general and invited them by letter. Unfortunately, this general is too famous. Stinky, no one is willing to serve their own lives, hehe!"
Xu Chu was furious and said, "I don't know what's good and what's wrong, so I'll tie them all back to Liangzhou this time, and threaten them again!"
Luo Zheng laughed and said yes, and he felt that Xu Chu was sometimes quite likable.
Simple minded people are always reassuring.
Although Xu Chu didn't like to use his brain, he also didn't have those complicated thoughts and tricks.
As long as it is Luo Zheng's order, it will be stubborn, never asking why and right or wrong.
It's like kidnapping someone, this guy doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.
If it is discussed which general under the tent is the most pleasing to Luo Zheng, it is naturally Xu Chu who is inexplicable.
People like Xu Chu, because their minds are relatively simple, and they are more directly influenced by the Confucianism of loyalty and filial piety, they will not say that a good bird chooses a tree to live in. Most of the time, they will only serve one lord for life.
And often this kind of person is the easiest to gain the trust of the lord.
Although he is not good at commanding troops in battle, he is definitely the closest person to every lord.
In ancient times, sit north and face south, the north is yang, and the south is yin.
Yingyin is located in the east of Yingchuan, south of Yingshui, a tributary of Yingshui.
At noon, the streets of Yingyin were sparsely populated, and the scene was desolate.
Yingchuan was originally Dashao, with a dense population, abundant food and money, and the people have been living a good life.
However, after Yuan Shu entered Yuzhou, he enlisted troops and paid food, and the people soon became miserable. Although Yingchuan was not devastated by the flames of war, the streets and markets in various counties gradually became depressed, and there were fewer and fewer vendors.
Xiliang cavalry rushed into Nanyang. Although the news reached Yingchuan, it did not cause panic.
Except for Kunyang, which is close to Nanyang, which has slightly strengthened its guard, the gentry officials and gentry in other counties did not take it seriously.
Luo Zheng got into Yingyin very smoothly, and took Xu Chu to appreciate folk customs on the street.
Although it is not Yangdi, the county government, literati wearing square scarves can be seen everywhere on the streets of Yingyin.
The Xun family, the world-famous scholarly family, has its foundation in this small city.
It didn't take much effort for Luo Zheng to inquire about the Xun's family. He took Xu Chu to a house in the east of the city, and counted to a slightly dilapidated house in the alley. He stopped at the door and watched for a long time. He shook his head and knocked. The door rang.
No matter how big the family is, there are rich and poor.
Even the descendants of the emperor, there are poor beggars.
Liu Bei is a living example. As a member of the royal family, he has to make shoes and sell shoes in order to make a living.
Just looking at the patches on the door of this house, one can tell that life is not good.
At least in terms of living affluence, it is slightly better than ordinary people's families, and far behind those aristocratic families.
Then again, although the Xun family is a well-known scholarly family in the world, it is different from those aristocratic families with thousands of hectares of fertile land and tens of thousands of slaves and private soldiers. The home can be said to be very shabby.
Of course, this refers to the material.
In terms of fame, the Xun family is far from being comparable to those local tyrants and landowners.
Squeak!
The dilapidated wooden door was opened, and it was opened by a woman in her thirties.
The woman's dress is very simple, and the clothes are even troublesome, but it reveals a kind of knowledge and courtesy of a scholar's wife.
"Are you..."
The woman looked at Luo Zheng and Xu Chu with doubts on her face.
Luo Zhengdao: "Chen Ping, may I ask my wife if Mr. Xun You is at home?"
The woman said: "My husband has gone to Yangdi, but he hasn't come back yet. I don't know what the two of you are looking for. Can I let my concubine tell you?"
Luo Zheng is just frowning, this is too damn coincidental, finally came to Yingchuan, Xun You ran out to visit friends and was not at home, missed this time, I don’t know when I will have a chance to come What about Yingchuan!
"Since Mr. Xun You is not at home, forget it!"
Luo Zheng shook his head, took out a letter and a letter, took the package from Xu Chu, handed it to the woman and said: "I come from Liangzhou, entrusted by Mr. Xun Yu, to send a letter from my family to Mr. Xun You, please Ma'am take it."
"Uncle Yu?"
The woman was startled, a little hesitant, not sure whether she should tie the knot or not.
After Xun Yu arrived in Liangzhou, he had correspondence with his family.
Although Xun You is the nephew of the Jingyu family, the two grew up together and have a very close relationship. When they were in Liangzhou, they had entrusted Xun You with several letters. The woman knew it, but the problem was that this man named Chen Ping Never heard of it myself.
After hesitating for a while, he still took the letter and the package.
The package was a bit heavy, and I didn't know what was inside.
It is not easy for women to open it, and it is not easy to invite a strange man into the house when the man is not at home.
Luo Zheng didn't intend to go in and sit down, bid farewell to the woman, and left with Xu Chu.
Xun You is a great talent, and Xun You has also recommended Luo Zheng.
Passing Yingyin this time, Luo Zheng came here for Xun You, and he has already made plans. If Xun You doesn't vote, he will be tied to Liangzhou directly, and then he will win his heart, but he didn't expect that Xun You went to Yang Zhai is not at home.
Although I still have to go to Yangdi, whether I can meet Xun You is still a matter of opinion.
This era is not like the later generations, where communication is so developed.
Even if they are in the same city, it is not so easy to find someone.
Luo Zheng went to visit Xun Yue, Xun Yan, Xun Chen and other Xun Yu's brothers of the same generation. Luo Zheng only vaguely heard of Xun Chen's name. Yue, Xun Yan, etc. have never heard of any of them.
When Xun Yu talked about his clansmen, he highly praised these people, and they all had extraordinary talents.
Luo Zheng became interested. Others didn't know, but he knew that Xun Yu didn't recommend talents easily. If he recommended, he must be a great talent. When Cao Aman was serving under Cao Aman, he recommended many great talents in the world to Cao Aman, such as Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia et al.
The Xun family deserves to be a well-known scholarly family in the world. They are extremely respectful and do not have the domineering arrogance of those aristocratic families.
Luo Zheng claimed to be a good friend Xun Yu met in Liangzhou, and was treated very politely by the Xun family.
However, it is a pity that Xun Chen is not at home. It is said that he defected to Yuan Shao and made contributions under Yuan Shao.
Xun Yue and Xun Yan are at home, but unfortunately they have no intention of serving Luo Zheng at all.
Even if there is Xun Yu's letter to invite him strongly, it is useless at all.
Luo Zheng thought about it, and felt that his reputation was too bad. Even if the Xun family treated him very politely, it was the most basic etiquette, and he didn't know his identity, and he didn't want to work for a warlord who dared to slaughter the gentry.
If you can't invite each other, then you can only be captured by force.
Luo Zheng is not a ceremonial person, so he kidnapped Xun Yue and Xun Yan that night.
When they left Yingyin the next day, the city of Yingyin was as calm as before, without causing any uproar.
However, robbing talents is a good idea.
Luo Zheng suddenly felt a move in his heart, and the idea popped up.
Years of wars in Xiliang have caused devastating blows to the power of the aristocracy.
Luo Zheng has only two or three big cats and kittens, and no one can use them. Now there are only two counties under his rule, but there are still three counties that don't even have county magistrates. If the territory expands in the future, there will be no people at all. to govern.
In addition to the population, the lack of talents is also a major flaw in Liangzhou.
Luo Zheng has always had a headache for this matter, and as soon as the idea of robbing talents came up, it was out of control.
Although the method is a bit disgraceful, it can't be taken care of.
As for the capture of Liangzhou, even if those scholars don't want to work for him, they can slowly find a way.
