Chapter 0225 to become thick and black(1/2)
In the inner room, Zhang Shujing asked several old brothers how to handle the matter of Guan Ping beheading Bao Kui and dividing the Bao family's land.
The fourth child, Zhang Jijing, was the first to speak: "Third brother, I have to ask my second brother about this matter before we discuss it."
Although most of the family members are determined by the third brother Shu Jing, the authority of the patriarch must be maintained, otherwise the next patriarch will become a mere decoration and be ignored by a few elders.
Zhang Xianjing, the fifth child, shook his head: "Even if the second brother knew about this matter, he would not agree to our taking action, but we still have to show our methods in the end, otherwise the other big names in the four counties of Jingnan will have to fight with Qu Shuai.
What do you think of our Zhang family?"
"Fifth brother is right. If this is the case with the Bao family, how much of the reputation that the eldest brother will have left after our Zhang family swallows their anger?" Zhang Huijing, the sixth brother, slapped Pingji and yelled angrily.
"That is, if there is no prestige, how can our Zhang family suppress other famous surnames?" Zhang Yajing snorted and said:
"We have dedicated all the land and population of the Li family to that kid Guan Ping. He is not satisfied yet and wants to cut off one of my Zhang family's arms. We must not ignore it easily."
"Uncle Liu Huang loves his people like his own son. Guan Ping, the governor of Changsha County, is brave and resourceful. Liu Biao cannot compare with him. Besides, it was expected that Guan Ping would kill Bao Kui. Why did Liu Biao let Bao Kui go? Wasn't he thinking that one day
Kill him to win over the people? Now it's just Guan Ping who plucks the peaches."
Zhang Youjing stroked his beard and smiled: "Sooner or later, this day will come, but it will come faster. As for the people of the Bao family being killed, it can be said that Guan Ping deliberately condoned it, or he could not control the situation at that time.
We can only go with the flow."
The third brother Zhang Shujing looked at his younger brother and said in a deep voice: "Youjing, do you mean that we have to give up responding and let Guan Ping do whatever he wants?"
"Third brother, in the past ten years, has the money, food and population given to us by the Bao family been less than a penny?" Zhang Youjing looked at the older brothers and none of them answered: "Isn't that great? All the brothers also know that Bao Bancheng
His name, it is normal for a person like him to die, it just depends on the time, and we can get away at this time!
Since the second brother has made some contributions to Uncle Liu Huang, we naturally have to seize the opportunity. With my help, my nephew Guangrong has had the opportunity to act as the prefect. I think it is better not to cause trouble and just take advantage of the opportunity.
Uncle Liu Huang is a big tree."
"Humph, he is a big tree?" Zhang Shujing patted the low table and said, "Youjing's words are quite short-sighted. If we give up here, who among those handsome men will care about our Zhang family in the future?
Youjing, do you think I am seeking justice for Bao Kui? If he dies, he will die. The most important thing is that the face of our Zhang family must not be lost here. How will we command the people of the four counties of Jingnan when the time comes?"
The fourth child, Zhang Jijing, said with a tangled look on his face: "Third brother, I still need to inform my second brother about this!"
"Second brother is a kind-hearted person. He will definitely be uneasy if he knows about this. He may even remind Liu Bei. How can we, the Zhang family, shirk the relationship?"
Zhang Shujing shook his head and refused: "Guan Ping relied on his bravery and only brought 500 people to Yiyang County. However, Yiyang County only had more than a thousand county soldiers, most of whom were old and weak."
Bao Kui brought all the strong men to his house as bodyguards. As for the county soldiers, they were all fake.
Zhang Shujing did not expect that the slaves would rebel against the Bao family, because they trusted the slaves more than the hired workers. The slaves were their family property, they were tools, and they would obey their masters absolutely.
But at this time, he actually took the lead in catching a direct descendant of the Bao family. This kind of person must be severely punished. You must know that there are tens of thousands of servants in the Zhang family. If they knew about it, wouldn't it be a big deal?
Zhang Youjing looked at the anger on the third brother's face and asked, "What do the third brothers want to do?"
"How to do it?" Zhang Shujing snorted and said, "Let the Wuxi barbarians go and make a trip!"
Zhang Youjing held the words in his heart. The soldiers were not more numerous but more skilled. Liu Huangshu's 20,000 troops were able to repel Cao Cao's more than 200,000 soldiers, which was enough to show the eliteness of his soldiers. In addition, he captured countless military equipment, which improved Cao Cao's morale and morale.
The weapons are all a big step ahead of the Wuxi barbarians.
The second brother is right, Guan Ping is not a person he likes. Despite his young age, if he has no ability, why would he be appointed as the prefect of Changsha County by Liu Bei?
Just because Guan Ping withdrew from Linxiang County and promoted Zhang Yao to the post of acting governor, Zhang Youjing felt that Guan Ping was a very scheming person. Without this, how could the government get some fertile land and people for free?
Third brother wants to teach Guan Ping a lesson with those barbarian soldiers?
Zhang Youjing felt quite uncomfortable, but it didn't matter. If it happened, it would only mean that Guan Ping was also a mediocre person who relied on his father to earn his fame, and he deserved to offend the Zhang family.
If the barbarians are defeated, some of the barbarians will die, which can just cut off the authority of the third brother, so as not to really think that the second brother's clan leader is a fake!
"agree."
There were voices of agreement in the inner room. After all, the clan leader was not here and everyone had to discuss it.
The county government office of Yiyang County.
Li Jun threw the family letter into the brazier.
You Zhang Yao, you actually took advantage of me, a vassal of the Li family!
Now, with the help of Han Xuan, some of the land and the vassal population that his cousin Li Zhi had captured were all confiscated by the government and codified and naturalized. This became Zhang Yao's way to claim credit from the county governor Guan Ping!
Moreover, they planned together with the other three families, so that they turned against each other!
Although Li Jun was angry, he had nothing to do. After all, his cousin Li Zhi had done the same thing in the past, and now he was just paying it back, wasting his cousin's life.
Fortunately, he secretly encouraged Guan Ping to kill Bao Kui, which also cut off an arm of the Zhang family, allowing his own forces to enter Yiyang County.
Comparing the two powers, he actually took advantage.
The clan leader wrote a letter asking him to continue to speak ill of the Zhang family around Guan Ping, and revealed that the Zhang family would definitely not give up and might incite the Wuxi barbarians to come and cause trouble.
Now that the Li family has paid the price, they must use Guan Ping to make him think that the Li family is his real helper, so as to find an official opportunity to regain all the lost land and population.
In the county government hall, Guan Ping also received a letter from the county prime minister Wenzhen, saying that there were 60,000 acres of new land in Linxiang County and more than 3,000 new people. This time, it was all thanks to the acting governor Zhang Yao's ability to conduct an inventory.
There are so many floating customers in this large household, they are really regarded as official officials.
Guan Ping smiled, which family cut off the land and population from this?
Zhang Yao was quite cheerful and ruthless in his attacks, which really gave the acting prefects a good start.
If the latter two have less land and population than Zhang Yao, how can they still be competitive?
So what if they see through it?
After finally seizing the opportunity, are you willing to let the Zhang family shit on their heads?
The recent two generations of governors of Changsha County are all members of the Zhang family. Now the bait has been thrown out to Zhang Yao. For their own benefit and that of their own family, how could they not bite the hook?
How could the other Wang and Lu families miss this competition?
When gamblers get on the gambling table, don't think about leaving easily. The most important thing is that Guan Ping, the referee, will not allow them to leave the game in peace and harmony. If they don't fight to the death, how can their own club take advantage?
"Major General, are you still busy?" Li Jun, who had already collected his emotions, stood outside the hall and asked with a bow.
"Haha, uncle is here." Guan Ping came back to his senses and laughed a few times.
Li Jun was naturally very happy to be in the job. The fact that Grand Administrator Guan could call him by his cousin name instead of his official position is enough to show that the relationship has become closer.
"Uncle, he came just in time." Guan Ping held up the bamboo slip in his hand and said, "Zhang Guangrong did not disappoint me. In just six days after taking office, he increased the land under his administration by 60,000 acres. The number of floating tourists who have been identified is about to arrive.
Four thousand people.
I can only recruit more than a thousand refugees in a month, which is enough to show that this person is a great talent. How can I be unhappy?"
Li Jun felt very painful in his heart when he heard this. These are all his own!
However, there was still a smile on his face, and he even said congratulations to the prefect for being able to transfer Zhang Yao from Lingling County.
"Okay, then I will write a letter to the lord right now, saying that Zhang Yao is a man of great talent and can serve as a prefect." Guan Ping looked at Li Jun with a smile on his face, and the anger flashed across his face just now.
But it didn't escape Guan Ping's eyes.
As expected, these lands and people were cut off from the Li family.
Han Liang, who was looking at the newly compiled books at his desk, immediately raised his head and said with a smile: "Major General, is there something wrong with this move? Previously, the Major General said that Wang Xiang and Lu Wen could also participate in the election as acting governor.
One position.
If Zhang Yao is only allowed to get this position by virtue of being the first, the two of them will definitely not be convinced, and what the Major General said will become empty words. How will he convince the public at that time, and how will others be convinced by what the new Major General said? "
The Zhang family must never be allowed to sit in the position of prefect again. He was still the acting prefect and so he struck the Li family with a knife. When he became the official prefect, the knife might strike the Han family.
You know, when Han Xuan was the governor of Changsha, the Han and Li families stood together.
Guan Ping blinked, thought for a moment and smiled: "Zhang Guangrong has done a good job in this matter, is it possible that Wang and Lu can do better? I don't believe it!"
When Li Jun heard this, his anger grew even more. He must not let the Zhang family serve as the governor of Changsha County anymore, otherwise it will be his Li family who will suffer the consequences, but he still had a smile on his face:
"Young General, how can a gentleman deprive himself of his prestige when he says that his horse is hard to catch? I hope I can wait a moment or two, just in case the other two can do a better job!"
"Yes, I hope the young general will think twice!" Han Liang, who was in charge, also got up and bowed to let Guan Ping think about it.
Guan Ping saw that the two people in front of him had fallen into the trap, so he followed the trend and said pretentiously: "In this case, I will write a letter and send it to Linxiang County, inform the county magistrate, and let Wang Congshui start acting as Changsha agent.
County governor.
If he didn't make a glorious achievement on May 6th, there would be no need to waste time working on Lu Wen. At the beginning, I just wanted to be glorious and able to convince the public, so I asked who else wanted to compete for this.
I didn’t expect that the position of county governor actually exists.”
"Young General, are you too hasty in terms of time?" Li Jun wanted to buy more time for Wang Xiang:
"Zhang Zhengzheng had already plundered so many floaters before. He had already taken advantage. If someone were to plan this later, wouldn't it be more difficult?"
"What are you saying? Fortunately, he has set a good precedent. If he is given another month, how can he convince the public?
The time is really about the same. I only like the results, not the process. If you two hadn’t reminded me, I would have directly written to the lord to recommend him."
Do you want to be reasonable with your subordinates?
Guan Ping secretly laughed in his heart and discussed with his boss. We are not familiar with each other. The most important thing is that I want to push you all into the pit. If we insist on being reasonable, can this matter still be accomplished?
Seeing that the words had come to an end, Han Liang on the side hurriedly smiled and said: "What the young general said is not unreasonable. If Cong Shui's political achievements are better than those of Guang Guang in the same period of time, it naturally means that he is more capable. If not, naturally
It proves that the ability of glory is stronger!"
