Zhao Hanzhang turned and left. Shi Le took one last look at the Duan family's camp on the other side of the river, and followed in Zhao Hanzhang's footsteps.
Zhao Hanzhang walked all the way and asked him: "I heard that General Shi is suppressing bandits recently?"
Shi Le responded.
Zhao Hanzhang said: "This is very good. As a governor, you must have a benevolent heart. You already have martial arts skills, and if you have a benevolent heart in literature and governance, you will be praised for generations to come."
Shi Le felt happy after hearing this, and the depression that had just been frightened by the threat dissipated a lot.
He was willing to follow Zhang Bin's advice and change his ways of doing things, naturally because he knew that brutality and toughness were not a long-term solution. Now even Zhao Hanzhang said that he was doing well now, which shows that his changes were effective.
Zhao Hanzhang hinted: "But benevolence and caring for the people are not a day's work, and most people in the world are stupid and can only see the past, so there are always many misunderstandings. As a superior, there is no need to compare with them for a short time, and be more open-minded."
.”
Shi Le didn't understand the meaning of these words, so he could only go back and ask Zhang Bin.
Zhang Bin thought for a while and said: "General Zhao is reminding my lord that when you officially take office, the people and officials in Youzhou will not agree with you."
Shi Le was angry: "Why don't you agree with me? I won Youzhou with my strength."
He captured and killed Wang Jun. Even one of Wang Jun's two sons was killed by him. He conquered the city along the way. Half of the cities in Youzhou were captured because he carried Wang Jun. Why should he not recognize him?
Zhang Bin comforted him with a smile, "They are all mediocre people. Why should my lord care about them? These people can only see what happened in the past. In the past, my lord was a bandit, robbing and killing people everywhere. The Han people were afraid of you. Now you say that you have changed, and you want to
Be a good governor, not to mention that they can't believe it, even there will be doubters under the lord's command."
"That's why General Zhao reminds you that benevolence and caring for the people are not something that can be accomplished in a day," Zhang Bin said with a smile: "My lord, why don't you relax, listen less to those resentful words, and just fulfill your duties as governor, as long as you treat them as your own
Treat him like a child, and one day the resentment will be eliminated, and you can be the real lord of Youzhou."
Hearing this, Shi Le looked deeply and asked: "Meng Sun, Zhao Hanzhang is so domineering, can she really allow us to operate in Youzhou?"
Zhang Bin burst out laughing and asked: "My lord, your great talent, why do you only see the land of one state? Why don't you want to be a famous minister for ten thousand generations?"
If he talks about the merits of eternal life, Shi Le will think of rebellion, but when he talks about the merits of famous ministers throughout the ages, what Shi Le thinks of is... "You mean the merit of following the dragon? Assisting Zhao Hanzhang to ascend the throne as emperor?"
Zhang Bin smiled and said nothing.
Shi Le thought about it and realized that it was not impossible. He was not as good as those scholars in terms of civility, but he could still fight. How could he know that he couldn't be a minister or a lieutenant?
Shi Le's heart became hot when he thought of this. If he could be a Taiwei in the prosperous age, he wouldn't have experienced this in vain, right?
Thinking of the hatred between him and the Sima family, Shi Le's eyes lit up with fire. Yes, he had snatched the Sima family's kingdom. Humph, did he really think that anyone in this world could take it?
If the Sima family is worthy of this position, then cats and dogs can be in the position, so Zhao Hanzhang should be allowed to oppose him!
Shi Le immediately changed his goal. He wanted to encourage Zhao Hanzhang to rebel. He wanted to be a Taiwei and a famous official!
However, he still had to have his own power at the moment, so he said to Zhang Bin: "Move the Jie people to Youzhou, and let us manage Youzhou well first. Huh, Tuoba Yilu wanted to take over Daijun to look at Youzhou and Bingzhou, but he failed.
I wonder if Zhao Hanzhang has been wary of him for a long time, their brother-sister relationship is not even as good as our relationship between a monarch and his ministers."
Zhang Bin also agreed, "General Zhao trusts the Lord more."
Shi Le felt proud.
He is not as good as Bei Gongchun, can he not be as good as Tuoba Yilu, his brother who showed up halfway?
Zhao Hanzhang was chatting with her half-way brother, Tuoba Yilu asked her, "Where is Yue Shi?"
Zhao Hanzhang smiled and said: "Second brother has gone to Xuzhou to take office."
Of course she can't leave everyone in Hunu County. Once Liu Cong dies, it will be necessary to retreat. The more people stay in the north, the more food and grass will be consumed. Her half-month in Hunu County is arranged
Regarding the affairs in the North, Liu Kun went straight to Xuzhou with a group of personal soldiers and a letter of appointment. Ji Ping was one step behind with 20,000 soldiers and horses.
Beigong Chunze and Linghu Sheng went to Jinyang to take office. He would send Liu Kun's parents and family to Xuzhou to reunite with him.
Tuoba Yilu: "...nephew Liu Zun is still in Dai County, how can Yue Shi not say goodbye to him?"
Zhao Hanzhang said indifferently: "An uncle is also a father. In the heart of nephew Liu Zun, the eldest brother and the second brother are the same. He has the eldest brother to take care of him, and the second brother can rest assured."
He added: "If the eldest brother is worried, just ask nephew Liu Zun to go to Xuzhou to find the second brother. I am willing to send a team of personal soldiers to follow."
Tuoba Yilu stopped talking.
Liu Zun was Liu Kun's hostage to Tuoba Yilu. He was sent to Daijun last year and could not leave easily.
Liu Kun was in Jinyang, so this hostage was very useful. But now he went to Xuzhou to be the governor, thousands of miles away from Daijun, so what use could this hostage have?
Are you threatening Bei Gongjun, who can't be beaten?
Tuoba Yilu felt a little angry.
He felt that he was cheated. He sent so many soldiers and horses to follow Zhao Hanzhang, but in the end he only got the benefit of changing the county to a country and being granted the title of prince. She transferred Liu Kun away, and all his previous arrangements were in vain.
All the hostages are useless.
Zhao Hanzhang didn't seem to notice. He poured a bowl of wine for him and said with a smile: "Brother has returned with a lot of gold and silver. I wonder how he will spend it?"
Only then did Tuoba Yilu remember that he was hired for the second half of this time, and Zhao Hanzhang promised to give him a lot of gold and silver. He looked better and asked: "Third sister, do you have any suggestions?"
Zhao Hanzhang recommended to him exquisite glass products, satins, silks, porcelain and other beautiful clothes, all of which came from the Central Plains.
Tuoba Yilu wanted both, but what he wanted more was Zhao's weapons.
The expression on Zhao Hanzhang's face remained unchanged, but there was a hint of sharpness between her brows. She smiled and said: "Brother also knows that the Zhao family's army is hundreds of thousands and cannot be self-sufficient, so Zhao's weapons are never sold to outsiders."
Tuoba Yilu's face didn't look good.
"However," Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "If brother opens his mouth, I will move some out no matter how difficult it is. I wonder what weapons brother wants and how many of each?"
Tuoba Yilu's expression improved. He thought for a while and said, "I want five thousand sabers, five thousand long swords and five thousand long spears."
Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him, then rejected him, saying that the output was limited and she could only sell one thousand of these three items.
Tuoba Yilu frowned and said to Zhao Hanzhang: "You and I, brother and sister, don't have to be polite. Let's just say it. Two thousand for each item, can you give me?"
Zhao Hanzhang frowned, sighed and said: "Well, since my brother has spoken, I will find a way to achieve it no matter how difficult it is."
