Chapter 252 Liu Xun and Liu Ye in Collusion
Zhiyue nodded and waved her hands, beckoning Zhiyong to come closer, but Zhiyong still moved forward.

"It's late today, you should rest first, don't move around anymore, lest the guards in the mansion become suspicious, when tomorrow dawns, you will send another subordinate to sneak into the bandit soldiers in Dabie Mountain as a spy, and find out the leader of the bandit, Zheng Bao. details!" Zhi Yue leaned over and whispered in Zhi Yong's ear.

"Yes, young master, I understand!" Zhi Yong saluted, then turned and went back to his room.

Zhiyue let out a long breath, and secretly said: "It seems that I have to leave here. It won't be of any use if I stay here, and the lord needs my help very much now! I really hope that I can receive the lord's letter as soon as possible." Reply!"

Putting away the long sword, Zhi Yue went back to the room and blew out the lights. The courtyard lacked a light source, making it even darker.

The next day

Zhi Yue went to the study to see Liu Xun privately, and Liu Ye also came in.

Liu Xun asked: "Prime Minister Zhi Jun is not in the mansion to handle business, why come to me when he has time?"

Zhi Yue said: "Fujun, I'm here to resign! I want to take my family back to my hometown."

"Well..., Zhi Juncheng, I can't decide this matter, you have to report this matter to Yuan Shijun! But if you really don't want to be an official, I can agree with you to take your family away! I have to give this little face anyway! Don't I!" Liu Xun said.

"As long as Mr. Liu can agree to let my family and I be very grateful, I will report to Mr. Yuan and won't bother Mr. Zhi!"

At this time, Liu Ye, who was sitting beside Liu Xun, suddenly smiled at Zhi Yue, blinked his eyes, then turned around and bowed to Liu Xun: "Your Majesty! I have something to say!"

"Zi Yang, please tell me!" Liu Xun nodded.

"Your Majesty! I heard that the Zhijun Cheng's family is rich and rich, so why not let him go back to his hometown and recruit soldiers to attack Chaisang?" Liu Ye said.

Liu Xun's eyes lit up, and he immediately agreed: "Okay, I think with the financial resources of the Zhi family, I will definitely be able to win Chaisanglai!"

Zhi Yue was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect Liu Xun to agree so happily, it saved a lot of tongues, but it accepted Liu Ye's favor.

"Thank you for your consideration, Master Fu!" Zhi Yue cupped her hands in thanks, then bowed to Liu Ye, and said, "Thank you, brother Zi Yang!"

"Hahahaha! Alright, that's it for now, but since Zhi Juncheng wants to resign, from now on, let's hand over the work, but before that, I want to ask Zhi Juncheng to recommend the new Juncheng !” Liu Xun laughed.

Zhiyue secretly scolded Liu Xun for being mean!
The position of the county magistrate is second only to the prefect. Although it is a deputy, it is usually appointed by the governor or the court, and very few prefects appoint themselves.

Zhiyue wanted to resign, so she could leave with a seal, but considering that her hometown is in this county, it would be inconvenient to offend Liu Xun, and besides, she had accepted Liu Ye's love just now, and now in front of Liu Ye, Liu Xun What else can Zhiyue say when asked this way?
"Your Majesty, I think Liu Ziyang is the most suitable for the position of Prime Minister!" Zhi Yue said.

"Well, since the Prime Minister Zhijun has recommended Liu Ziyang, then Liu Ziyang will be the successor to the position of Prime Minister, but I hope you can explain the situation to Yuan Shijun, so that Yuan Shijun will not send another person over. It's embarrassing, Zhi Juncheng has no place to put his face on!" Liu Xun accepted Zhi Yue's suggestion without hesitation.

Liu Ye said: "Thank you Ziqing for the recommendation!" After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, started talking and laughing with Liu Xun, and left Zhi Yue aside.

After a while, Liu Xun seemed to find that Zhiyue was still standing in the study, and said in surprise: "Zhiyue, why are you still standing here, go back quickly, go out and buy more specialties here, and bring them with you." It's good to go home!"

Zhiyue originally planned to leave at this point, but in order to achieve her goal, she had to hold back and said in a humble tone: "Fu Jun, I want to be an official of Wan County so that I can recruit troops!"

"Oh, this, but it really doesn't work. You know it too. My court stipulates that officials above the county level cannot be local officials. Your hometown is in Wan County. If I let you be an official in Wan County, that's You violated the imperial court’s regulations! I think you’d better ask Mr. Yuan to find another way! Well, by the way, I hope you will hand over to Liu Juncheng today, and then move out of the county mansion tomorrow at the latest, I don’t want to hear Other officials in the mansion gossip!" Liu Xun said expressionlessly.

"Zi Yang!" Zhi Yue looked at Liu Ye again, hoping that Liu Ye could help with a word.

"Zhi Ziqing, I think it will be fine as long as the lord acquiesces, you can go back to your hometown immediately and start recruiting soldiers!" Liu Ye said, and then asked Liu Xun with a smile: "My lord, you said I was right. ?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes! Zi Yang said it very well! Zhiyue, you heard it, don't worry!" Liu Xun said.

Zhi Yue's face turned red immediately, she gritted her teeth resentfully, suppressed her anger, cupped her fists at Liu Xun, and said "Farewell!" After saying that, Zhi Yue felt that she couldn't stay any longer, turned and left the study.

In the study room, Liu Xun was stunned for a moment, seeing that Zhiyue was angry, he wondered: "Ziyang, did Zhiyue get angry just now? Did I read it right? I remember that Zhiyue always seemed to have a good temper! He You won't raise troops against me, will you?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry! Give him 1 guts, and he wouldn't dare to rebel, and even if he rebelled, wouldn't it be in our interest? The Zhi family has been doing business on the Yangtze River for several generations, and the wealth accumulated can be piled up. It's a mountain!" Liu Ye said.

"Well, what if he doesn't raise troops after he returns?" Liu Xun asked.

"I expected that Zhiyue would definitely raise troops! Although Zhiyue was appointed by Yuan Shu, in fact, Zhiyue belonged to Yuzhou Feng Shijun! Liu Biao's attack on Runan is very tight now, and Zhiyue must want to raise troops to attack Jiangxia Huangzu. To break the siege of Runan, as soon as he attacks Liu Biao, I will immediately inform Zheng Bao and the others to attack the rear of Zhiyue, destroy the Zhi family, and take all the wealth of the Zhi family!" Liu Ye said.

"Then what if Zhiyue defeats Zheng Bao?" Liu Xun asked.

"If Zheng Bao is defeated, please report to the lord, saying that the Zhi family raised an army privately. It was a rebellion. When Zhiyue leads the army to attack Huangzu, we will send troops to attack Zhiyue's rear!" Liu Ye said.

"Then will we offend Yuan Shijun and Feng Yao?" Liu Xun asked worriedly.

"Now that Feng Yao's ambitions have been revealed, if you hesitate any longer, Mr. Fu, I'm afraid that in the future when Feng Yao attacks Lujiang, we will be the first to destroy us! Zhiyue must be eliminated, and we cannot be allowed to destroy us in the county. What a big deal!" Liu Ye gritted his teeth with a look of ruthlessness in his eyes.

……

In Xuzhou and the State of Lu, it was already the eighth day of February. Soldiers from nearby counties and counties came to vote for Feng Yao. In three days, nearly [-] new recruits had been recruited. Adding Wei Yan's [-] soldiers, the total force was It has reached [-]!
