At that time, don't worry about power or not. If it really develops to that point, what Zhou Xin should think about is how to take all the crimes on himself as much as possible, so as to prevent his clan relatives from being implicated.

……

Such overt and covert slashing cut off Zhou Xin's last hope, and also made him completely cut off his thoughts about the future.

After listening to Zhang Yan's words, his complexion changed at least five times in three seconds.

It seems that they want to argue, struggle, and even resist.

But in the end, Zhou Xin did not make any act of resistance.

First, it was because I didn't have that kind of courage, and second, it was because I didn't have the powerful strength to support my courage.

His official position was obtained by begging from Yuan's family by relying on the favor of his father and Yuan's family.

This can be regarded as a kind of affirmation from the Yuan family to Zhou Xin's father, but more, it is a kind of charity.

He had to thank the Yuan family for this kind of charity, but he couldn't take the initiative to ask the Yuan family for it.

That being the case, for Zhou Xin, the current situation can naturally be said to be "all measures are exhausted".

After bowing her head in silence for a long time, Zhou Xin finally looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh.

After that, he didn't say anything more, but straightened his mind, and saluted Zhang Yan respectfully.

"What Brother De Mao said is very true. Since there is a brother to take action, the safety of Danyang, as a brother, can be relieved."

"It's just that Danyang is located in a remote place. If there is no one to govern it for a long time, people's livelihood will definitely fall into chaos."

"I don't know what my virtuous brother thinks about this matter?"

"In the past few days, I have been looking at all the statues on the Lujiang River, and I can see that the abundance and prosperity of the Lujiang River is far better than that of Danyang."

"I think that if the strategy proposed by my virtuous brother will be of great benefit to my Danyang, I will definitely adopt it happily and try my best... I also hope that my virtuous brother will not be stingy and give me a lot of advice for my Danyang."

……

Tired, give up, don't want to play anymore.

How about love.

Although Zhou Xin said a lot just now, if it is really translated into adult language, it probably means just one or two sentences.

In short, it means that he is submissive to Zhang Yan, and let Zhang Yan make his own request, and he will fully cooperate.

……

Hmm...Maybe on some occasions, this seems to be "unconditional surrender", which represents a complete abandonment of one's own sovereignty.

……

"This, of course, can't be said to teach you. You and I are both courtiers of the big man, and it is normal to have some exchanges with each other..."

Hearing Zhou Xin's words, Zhang Yan finally breathed out.

Then, a sense of ecstasy surged from his heart, which also made him a little excited at this moment——

The reason why he sneaked into this extremely remote small courtyard today is because Zhou Xin said that Zhang Yan came to negotiate with the other party.

In other words, he came to negotiate terms with Zhou Xin.

Now that Zhou Xin cooperated so well, Zhang Yan didn't expect it.

In this way, I am afraid that the next thing will be much simpler.

……

Chapter 23 This is for your own good!

As an outsider without actual rewards, Zhang Yan certainly cannot directly control Danyang County for a long time.

Even forcibly controlling this place by force is impossible, because not only his name is wrong, but also his words are not right.

Although Zhang Yan pretended to be full of confidence when chatting with Zhou Xin just now...but he knew it in his heart.

This Danyang, it would be fine if he was in charge... Once he thought about direct control, what awaited him would definitely not be a good result, and it might even be some kind of punishment.

It's only 190 A.D., and it's not the scene of the later separatist regimes... As long as he dares to do something that is not in line with the rules of Lujiang prefect, what awaits him is the impeachment of many censors and governors.

And who will these impeachments be sent to in the end?

Young Emperor Liu Bian?Or Han Xiandi Liu Xie?

……

Sorry, neither.

……

If starting now, someone impeaches him behind his back in the future, Zhang Yan is more than [-]% sure that the impeachment will be sent to either Dong Zhuo or Wang Yun.

And what does Dong Zhuo have to do with him?

That's the future of enemy relations!

What is the relationship between Wang Yun and him?

Wang Yun is an official from an aristocratic family and a minister representing the court, while Zhang Yan is a foreign official with an eunuch background and represents the emperor.

Whether it is Dong Zhuo or Wang Yun, as long as they receive the impeachment related to Zhang Yan, they will definitely not be stingy with their punishment, and they will give Zhang Yan some trouble.

Therefore, during this period of time, especially before the end of the appeal against Dong, Zhang Yan must be very careful about his behavior, and must not fall short on the eve of the appeal for Dong.

Because the severity of this matter is different from other things.

If he is impeached, will he resist or not?

To resist means to rebel openly, and then face the conquest of hundreds of princes and allied forces in the whole of China with one's own strength.

Not resisting means that Zhang Yan has completely given up resisting like Zhou Xin today. All the efforts of the past two years have been in vain, and even his own safety may have to be handed over to others.

……

It is precisely because of all these that Zhang Yan must be careful and cautious.

It is impossible for him to let himself fall into that kind of uncontrollable danger for Danyang, but he can't really put a piece of cake as big as Danyang in front of him for his own safety. Hand over to others.

In other words, Zhang Yan now needs some way to indirectly control Danyang County without showing himself in front of others.

This is what people often call "white gloves".

Zhang Yan will put on white gloves, and work with a guy who cooperates with him, or even directly obeys him, to achieve his ultimate goal together.

This is the main purpose of his coming here today:

Find a way to set the future rules of Danyang County with Zhou Xin, and work with Zhou Xin to completely divide the rights of the prefect of Danyang.

……

Before that, Zhang Yan had heard about Zhou Xin.

Of course, I mainly heard about it from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms handed down from my family in my previous life.

According to his memory, Zhou Xin was probably the type who suffered from the shadow of his ancestors and was quite incompetent himself.

It can be said that apart from being loyal and patriotic and not afraid of Yuan Shu's hegemony, he has no energy or ability from top to bottom.

……

Well, a proper white glove.

……

Let alone managing a county as big as Danyang, according to Zhang Yan's estimate, even if this person is a county magistrate, or even a lower-level county magistrate, he may not be able to do a good job.

Among the entire Three Kingdoms, the only record he can get is probably during the battle between the two Yuans, he defended the city on behalf of Yuan Shao's forces and repelled Yuan Shu's attack from the south.

Other than that, there is nothing more.

……

Up to now, Zhang Yan left him hanging out for more than two months, killing his last bit of energy, and then came to discuss serious matters with him.

Sure enough, after beating and threatening Zhou Xin twice, this man obediently gave up the power in his hands without any reservation.

From this point of view, this person's character can be said to be well-deserved...

……

"Don't worry, Brother Zhou... We are colleagues, and we will definitely not harm you!"

"The current Danyang is indeed a little less developed than Lujiang. But I believe that as long as the main problems hindering the development of Danyang are solved, it will be a matter of time before such a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers and outstanding people develops! "

Smiling and patted Zhou Xin on the shoulder, Zhang Yan was in a very happy mood.

Although it is also very interesting to exchange words with others, but such occasions where direct and mindless requests make him feel more happy and carefree.

"We're all on our own, so I'll make it clear that people don't speak secretly. It's not that simple to restore Danyang's vitality in a short period of time. For this, I have been prepared these days..."

……

"Look..."

While talking, Zhang Yan took out a roll of brocade silk from his pocket.

On it, there are a lot of ink marks written in black on white silk.Just looking at the delicate and beautiful handwriting, it doesn't look like a man writing it, but it looks like it was written by a woman.

"Brother Zhou, please sit down."

Pointing to the table beside him, Zhang Yan signaled Zhou Xin to sit down, and he spread out the silk with small characters on it, and laid it flat on the table.

"I have written all the methods of revitalizing Danyang here. Brother Zhou, you can read it first, and I will explain it to you one by one from the side."

……

……

……

The two sat down separately, and Zhang Yan's voice quickly rang out.

……

"First of all, the first point, and the most important point."

"If you want to revitalize the people's livelihood in Danyang, the top priority is to stimulate economic activities in Danyang. Whether it's commercial transactions, factory production, or purchases and exchanges among ordinary people, they are all worthy of our encouragement and even advocacy."
