Ye Qing opened the curtain and went out, cupping his hands deeply: "It's Bei, may I ask who you are?"
On the one hand, the habit of being polite to the corporal is also important to note... This is Yingchuan
Originally named Yangzhai, it is located in the upper reaches of Yingshui River. To the north is the Yellow River, and to the south is the junction area of the three major river basins of Hanjiang, Yellow River, Huaihe and Yangtze Rivers. It is the hinterland of the Central Plains and the key point between the north and the south. Xia Qi, the son of Dayu, is here in Juntai.
The tribes of the Hui League established the Xia Dynasty. For this reason, it was also called Yuzhou. It was the birthplace of many surnames. It was the place where Zheng Feng and Chu Feng met during the Spring and Autumn Period. It produced outstanding figures such as Lu Buwei, Han Feizi, and Zhang Liang. In the Han Dynasty, it was the Sili of the capital.
The most populous and prosperous place outside the zone.
With a population base, an economic base, and a cultural base, there is no need to worry about the lack of talent. Now there are even more stars gathered. In addition to Xu Shu who was taken over by Lu Shangjing, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong's "Water Mirror" were also recommended to Liu Bei.
Mr. Sima Hui, and a large number of key talents under Cao Cao such as Xun, Xun You, Guo Jia, Chen Qun, and Zhong Yao.
As soon as Ye Qing received the call, he would rather give up his last attempt to chase and kill Yuan Shao and take root in the north, but also want to be the prefect of Yingchuan. There are many factors such as strategy, population, economy, popularity and even dragon aura. There are opportunities to dig out
Losing most of Cao Cao's wings is the fundamental thing.
Immediately he stood up and looked at this young scholar with a sallow complexion. He only brought a little maid and a master and servant riding a horse. He guessed that he was a scholar from a poor family, so he was quite looking forward to it...
However, the man's first words made Ye Qing thunderous: "I am a guest of Mr. Cao's family, and I am here to persuade Mr. Xuande to surrender to Mr. Cao..."
Zhang Fei suddenly opened his eyes angrily and shouted: "Are you looking for death?"
This sound was like a thunderbolt, with a hint of murderous intent. Several people around him turned pale and took a few steps back. Xi Zhicai was not surprised at all on his face, but was shocked in his heart. There are probably not many people in this world who can.
He remained truly calm under Zhang Fei's roar, and he was no exception.
Ye Qing stretched out his hand and held down the noisy third brother with a smile. He remembered that back then, Ma Chao called Liu Bei Duke Xuande, not the lord, and Zhang Fei wanted to kill him. This was to protect his status and authority.
"Brother, why did you say that..." As he dealt with the scene, he searched quickly in his mind and locked on a name. He was suddenly startled: "Why are you preparing for the scene?"
Xi Zhicai was startled for a moment, wondering: "Do you know me?"
"I'm lucky enough to have heard about it." Ye Qing smiled and didn't say anything specific, because he didn't hear it from anyone, or even wrote it in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but just a few words in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
There is a sentence in the biography of Xun, which goes like this: He who talks about strategies and counselors, enters the theater to develop his talents, and his talents will die, and then he enters Guo Jia...
There is a sentence in Guo Jia's biography, Yingchuan Opera Zhicai was also a painter, Taizu was very skilled in it, and died early. Taizu and Xun Shu said: "After Zhicai died, there is no way to deal with anyone who plans things. You, Yinggu
Duoqishi, who can take over?"
Recommended.
"What is he here for? Is he really a lobbyist? No..." Ye Qing thought about it and said: "Brother Xi is a great talent. I have always admired him. I don't know where he lives? Can I pay him a visit?"
Xi Zhicai was talking incessantly to fool Liu Bei. At this time, he fell silent and sighed for a long time: "My father and mother are poor in food and clothing, and I rely on my elder brother to take care of me. I have been running around for many years, but I have achieved nothing. How can I dare to go back?
He no longer had any intention of joking, but he frankly revealed his situation of not being trusted by Duke Cao.
People at that time respected filial piety, so Ye Qing deliberately used these words to test his feelings, which was quite similar to the later generations' expression "Do your parents know that you are so powerful?"
Hearing the silence, he finally understood his purpose. He smiled and said sincerely, "In that case, although I am not very talented, I would like to employ you as a meritorious officer. What do you think, sir?"
"Huh? Aren't you afraid that I am a mediocre person and a liar?"
"In this world, filial piety and honesty are used to promote talents. If you deserve the title of filial piety, why should I begrudge a meritorious officer?" Ye Qing smiled, but told the truth: "If it is suitable for use, then I will enter. If it is not suitable, I will buy it for a thousand pieces of gold."
Horse bones, I've heard for a long time that there are many wonderful people in Yingchuan, so I don't worry about no one coming to help."
Xi Zhicai looked the big-eared man up and down, and his mind flashed to Duke Cao: "I once heard that Duke Liu was a hypocrite, but now that I have seen him in person, I know that people's words are not trustworthy. It is not as good as meeting him to be famous."
He straightened his clothes, bowed to the ground, and touched the green grass with his forehead: "I am willing to work hard for the public."
Ye Qing quickly helped him up, and after some conversation, they both got to know each other better.
The selection of principals and ministers at this time is quite similar to men and women discussing marriage. Men should be generous and rich, while women should be generous and versatile. It is often a hit-and-run, a bit like getting in first and making up for the vote later.
Or it may be thousands of miles away, and transportation and information are difficult to maintain. Once missed, life or death is often inevitable.
Ye Qing was overjoyed: "A man with a will is better than a thousand soldiers."
After saying that, he personally led Xi Zhicai up, and then ordered the convoy to return to the house: "Go back."
The soldiers crowded back one after another and arrived at the mansion. Seeing a few people waiting quietly, Ye Qing asked: "Zhicai, I have many vacancies for Cao Cao. I wonder where you want to be?"
Xi Zhicai's eyes flashed unnoticeably. Although he did not follow the rules, he had a self-discipline. He saw that Liu Bei's words were very frank. He was moved in his heart. With a calm expression on his face, he raised his hands and said: "My lord gave me this gift.
I dare to resign, but I have never been an official. My lord loves me, so he will give me the title of chief secretary of the office of history. I will be promoted in the future."
He is responsible for recording the history of the office, recording events and issuing notices, and recording records. He is the clerk of the county government.
"This is Shi, not Cao Tu. It's too unfair." Ye Qing shook his head. In this county, Cao Tu was the principal (Baishi) and Shi was the deputy (Doushi). There was a big difference.
"A certain person comes from a poor family. He didn't dare to hold a high position when he first became an official, so he asked the Lord to help him." Xi Zhicai insisted. Seeing his insistence, Ye Qing thought for a moment and said: "In this case, let's temporarily serve as the Lord.
Just keep a record of the history of the family and then get promoted in the future."
"Thank you Lord," Xi Zhicai thanked him again. As soon as he bowed and accepted the order, a trace of white and red aura seeped out.
Originally, this man's gray aura quickly faded, and he quickly gathered a rich white aura, but he was not red yet. He must have achieved a corresponding status after his position was firmly established. With his talent, he might be able to achieve it in less than three months.
It's just that Xi Zhicai's body was a little weak and his face was sallow. Ye Qing sighed secretly and said: "Pass the banquet, we have to celebrate today."
"promise"
Then he held his hand and said, "Zhicai, let's have a banquet together."
This exchange lasted until midnight. Ye Qing confessed his thoughts and plans, and at the same time he discovered the characteristics of this person. His words sounded very secular at first, but after a deeper discussion, he was very practical, because he did not care much about traditional rules, and
Being able to have unique insights into strategies in troubled times and being good at the art of war, is it no wonder that he was favored by Cao Cao, but now he surrendered to him?
"Is it because Liu Bei has lost all his straw sandal temperament and finally has the air of a bastard?" Ye Qing thought to himself, but a voice said clearly in his heart, no.
It's the remaining energy of a man.
"As Dong Zhuo's retrograde became more and more obvious, the luck of the Eastern Han Dynasty continued to shrink, but the Eastern Han Dynasty was not the only great Han Dynasty, and there would be several people who would call themselves Han in the future."
In the history of China, there is only one lineage, the Emperor Lineage of the Upper Realm, which has such a spectacular appearance of all the lines coming together.
"No wonder it will be me, Liu Bei, who rises in response to the call..." Ye Qing thought clearly, and gained a deeper understanding of destiny... He still had some swaying thoughts. He could rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, but he was afraid that in this earthly world,
Just get a glimpse of the prototype of the Emperor of Heaven...
"If I were not born in China and have such a great destiny tailor-made for my descendants through the glorious history of the Han Dynasty, how could I have this opportunity to glimpse it?"
Or above the dragon energy, this is the only gain that I can get in this earth world.
"Then what are we going to do in Yingchuan County in the past four or five years?" Ye Qing fell into deep thought: "We need to clarify the plan first."
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Call Diao Chan over."
After a while, a young girl came over and bowed slightly: "I have met my lord."
Only then did Ye Qing really look at her. She was indeed stunningly beautiful. She also had two dimples in her smile, which were revealed after just a slight sip. Her soft skin was filled with fat and jade, but the most important thing was a kind of natural charm. To be honest,
This beauty is much better than Jiang Zinan's.
At this time, there was some strange energy in her bright light. When Ye Qing saw it, he smiled: "Zinan, your martial arts have improved a lot."
Diao Chan was a little confused about this name. She was startled for a moment before she finally realized it and said quickly: "It's all thanks to the great kindness of my lord."
"You are so alienated by what you said. Let me see, well, we are halfway through Ling Ling. This progress is really rapid. You can practice the Great Yi Martial Arts seriously. I can't even be happy. I have written several Qi Refining articles in a row.
All can be learned.
"Also, since you have strong martial arts skills, I feel relieved. I want to send you to Luoyang. If you have any ideas, just tell me. Say what you want without any scruples."
"Yes... I don't have many ideas." Diao Chan swallowed and said, "My lord, just give me your orders.
Ye Qing frowned slightly, but continued: "Zhang Liao's tasks overlap with yours, but there are many things that are inconvenient for him. I will give you money and fifty people. After you go, continue to build relationships and protect He in the future.
When the Queen Mother comes out, it will be up to you to handle Cai Zhaoji's affairs."
"Also, although Wang Yun has broken up with me, he cannot be completely without affection. He may be in serious trouble in the future. If necessary, you can rescue him and leave the capital - or at least his family."
"But your most important task is to establish an intelligence network."
After hearing this, Diao Chan suddenly raised her head and looked at Ye Qing. She suddenly lost her shyness and hesitation and said, "Yes, my lord, I will fulfill my mission."
"Okay, it's good to have this voice. Before you leave, arrange a residence for Xi Zhicai, bring his family here, and give him two hundred thousand dollars." After saying this, Ye Qing smiled relaxedly: "The Xi Zhicai
I'm poor, but I don't care about money. I am a great talent in the world, but as the lord, I can't think about it and I can't make arrangements."
Diao Chan responded, poured a cup of tea, brought it over, and whispered softly: "My lord is wise, mighty, and kind-hearted. Master Xi is very lucky to have a lord like you."
Ye Qing pinched her little face, and when he saw that her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, he smiled and said: "Stop flattering, go down and do your work."
Seeing Diao Chan go down, Ye Qing's face darkened, and a few traces of doubt emerged.
