Chapter 210 Wenqin of Lujiang County abuses the people, Zhuge of Yangzhou Prefecture is worried
In the Wagtail Pavilion of the General's Mansion, everyone discussed for two full hours and finally decided on the candidates for the two important positions of Central Leader and Rear General.
Mentioning Yangzhou where Zhuge Dan was guarding, Cao Shuang suddenly remembered that although he had previously arranged for Zhang Ji, who was originally the governor of Dongguan, to be appointed the governor of Jiujiang to assist Zhuge Dan, he was still somewhat alone. Zhuge Dan's political achievements in Yangzhou naturally required more capable ministers to help him.
The talents in his shogunate are now very abundant. Cao Shuang thought for a while and focused his attention on Wang Ji and Wang Bo who had just made a speech. This person is a talent that he and Sima Yi have competed for many times. There is no doubt about his talent. He is a first-rate talent.
Moreover, Cao Shuang understood that it was a bit unfair for Wang Ji to only serve as a lieutenant. It would be better to arrange Wang Ji to serve as the county governor in Yangzhou. This would not only allow Wang Ji's talents to be displayed, but also allow Zhuge Dan to quickly achieve political achievements in Yangzhou. , but it kills two birds with one stone.
[Note 1: Jiujiang County of Cao Wei is in the Shouchun area. 】
"Bo Yu, I would like to arrange for you to be appointed as the governor of Anfeng County. What do you think?"
After hearing these words, Wang Ji's eyes suddenly shone with light. He understood that although serving as county guard was an external job, it meant that his power and status had reached a higher level. He stood up and saluted:
"Thank you so much, General. I have no objection to my humble position, and I will definitely live up to the trust of the General!"
[Note 2: Anfeng County was divided into five counties in the northwest of Lujiang County in the second year of Wei and Huangchu, and Anfeng County was newly established. 】
————
During the previous Han Dynasty, Yangzhou stretched across the left and right of the Yangtze River, the south and the north of the Yangtze River. Although the population was sparse, the territory was extremely broad. Nowadays, the country is divided into three parts, and Yangzhou is also divided between Wei and Wu.
The territory of Yangzhou under the jurisdiction of the Wei Dynasty is bounded by the Huaihe River in the north and the river in the south. Shouchun City, which is close to the south bank of the Huaihe River, is its capital. It governs four major counties: Lujiang County, Jiujiang County, Anfeng County, and Huainan County.
Although today's Yangzhou is small, after twenty-three years of hard work by the Wei Dynasty from the early years of Huang Dynasty to the present three years, it can be regarded as a large state with prosperous people and fertile land.
Today, among the four counties of Yangzhou, Jiujiang is governed by Zhang Ji; Cao Shuang has just appointed Wang Ji and Wang Boyu as the governor of Anfeng; the governor of Huainan is the experienced minister Ding Zun; and Lujiang is governed by General Cao Shuang's compatriot, Cao Shuang. The champion general of the third rank, Wen Qin and Wen Zhongruo, came to guard and govern.
This Wen Qin was a rising general in this dynasty. His father was also Wen Ji, a famous general under Emperor Wu of this dynasty, so he could be regarded as a general.
It's just that this Wenqin is very fierce, and rumors about him are not very good.
It is said that when Wen Qin was young, he became famous throughout Yedu for his status as the son of a famous general and his brave and decisive character, and became the little leader of many dandies and brave young men in Yedu.
More than twenty years ago, in the 24th year of Jian'an, Guan Yunchang led Jingzhou soldiers and horses to the north to attack Xiangfan. He flooded the forbidden seven armies in northern Jing and besieged most of Cao Ren in Fancheng. It shocked China and shocked the world.
In that year, there was a young man named Wei Xi in Ye who had a heart for the Han Dynasty and had unparalleled eloquence.
Taking advantage of the power of Guan Yunchang's Northern Expedition, he secretly contacted the local officials in northern Jingzhou who were sympathetic to the Han Dynasty, and also joined forces with Chen Yi, the Changle guard who was in charge of part of the armed imperial army in Yedu, to plan to secretly set fire to the city on a dark and windy night. Surprise attack on Yecheng, the capital of Wei!
But Chen Yi was so frightened that he reported the secret to Emperor Wen Cao Pi, who was still the heir to the throne of Wei at that time. Thousands of officials and people died because of this incident!
The last chance of reviving the Han Dynasty seemed to have disappeared with the defeat of Wei Xi and the death of Guan Yu.
Wei Xi, a celebrity with a promising future, was cut off from the market due to the failure of his plan and ended up in a miserable state.
This is the major case that shocked the world more than 20 years ago, the Wei Zhi conspiracy case.
Wen Qin, who was still young, was implicated in this shocking case because of his careless friendship.
According to the law, Wen Qin should have been executed, but Emperor Wu Cao Cao actually pardoned him because he was the only son of his beloved general Wen Ji.
Because he offended Emperor Wen, Wen Qin no longer had an official position during the early Huang Dynasty, and he wasted seven years like this.
Later, when Emperor Ming succeeded to the throne, he thought that Wen Qin was a meritorious official, so he promoted Wen Qin to an unusual position, and successively served as the school governor of the fifth battalion, Yamen general and other important positions.
Originally, this was Wen Qin's rebirth. He should have learned his lesson and become a talented person from now on.
However, Wen Qin, who was reborn after death, thought that he was a favored son favored by God, and became more and more arrogant and rude. Not only did he repeatedly offend his superiors with his arrogant attitude, but he was also repeatedly punished by his superiors and sent to the frontier.
Seeing that he was arrogant and unreasonable, the late emperor once wanted to abandon him, but after all, he still loved talents eagerly. Soon after, he made an exception and appointed Wen Qin as the prefect of Lujiang, and he was given the high position of General Yingyang of the fifth rank.
But Wen Qin, who was forgiven by the emperor again and again, still disappointed the emperor again.
Because Wen Qin was greedy and cruel during his tenure, his boss Wang Ling had a copy of it, so Wen Qin was ordered to return him by Emperor Cao Rui of the Ming Dynasty and was detained in Luoyang for questioning.
But Wen Qin was really lucky. Soon after, Emperor Ming died, and the general Cao Shuang took over the power. Because he and the general were from the same hometown, he won the general's favor.
Cao Shuang not only erased Wen Qin's previous charges, but also followed Ding Mi's plan and sent Wen Qin back to Lujiang as the county guard again, and made him a champion general of the third rank.
Wen Qin was treated like this, and according to his temperament, he naturally did not restrain his behavior. Unsurprisingly, because he saved the day one after another, he became more convinced that he was the chosen one, and became more arrogant and arrogant.
Not only that, he also relied on his exquisite martial arts, claiming to be a god descending to earth, and ordered people to spread these words among the army. Therefore, Wen Qin had a high reputation among the three armies under his command, which naturally further encouraged Wen Qin's ambition.
Arrogant and arrogant.
On this day, outside a bustling tea shop in Lu'an County, the capital of Lujiang County, two young farmers who had just harvested rice in the farmland on the outskirts of the city for most of the day were drinking tea and resting at the stalls outside the tea shop. The two young farmers
People were talking about something while eating rice bait and tea from the tea stall:
"I heard that since Zhuge Gongxiu took office, he has dealt with a large number of corrupt officials, and recovered many local fields that had been occupied by powerful people, and redistributed them to poor farmers. The officials and people of Anfeng, Jiujiang, and Huainan counties are all
I love you so much!"
"Not only that, Zhuge Shijun also vigorously reorganized our military armaments in Yangzhou. This way, we don't have to be afraid next time Wu Dog invades!"
"Oh, it's a pity that our Yangzhou is still the same as before, with powerful landlords, generals, and no fuel-efficient lamp..."
At this moment, the servant of the Taishou Mansion, who had been eavesdropping on the street corner for a long time, rushed towards the largest restaurant in Lu'an County.
The two farmers who continued to talk did not realize that the danger was coming.
Not long after, there was a commotion in the direction of the restaurant. People on the street looked from a distance and saw that the people who were walking normally suddenly dispersed in panic.
Not long after, I saw a group of soldiers with gorgeous clothes and fierce faces, surrounded by a general in crimson uniform, with a sword hanging around his waist, and holding a mixed iron divination halberd one foot and four feet long.
The soldiers were even taller and stronger men who were ten times more ferocious.
This fierce man was none other than the Lujiang prefect, the champion general Wen Qin Wen Zhongruo.
The servant of the prefecture who had just eavesdropped and ran away naturally went to report the news to him.
This teahouse is the largest teahouse in the county. Officials, officials and people, traders and pawns, all kinds of people chat here every day about many interesting things.
In order to find out the rumors among the people, Wen Qin specially arranged for his servants to follow him every day.
I saw Wen Qin, with a black beard and a pair of eyes as fierce as a leopard, slamming the 48-pound iron halberd into the bluestone pavement.
"Keng!"
This meal actually smashed a foot-thick blue brick on the bluestone pavement outside the tea house to pieces!
The two young farmers who were still talking passionately were suddenly frightened. When they saw the fierce-looking Wen Qin and his tribe dressed in fine clothes, they were so frightened that they sweated profusely and fell to their knees on the cold and sharp floor.
On the bluestone path with gravel residue.
Naturally, Wen Qin had just chopped up the rubble.
At this moment, the two of them ignored the pain and face, and kept kowtowing in the gravel to apologize:
"General...general, the common people have no...inadvertently, they are talking nonsense, but I still hope that the general Hai...Haihan...Haihan..."
Wen Qin felt very proud when he saw the two people being frightened. At this moment, he used his rough voice like a jackal and asked fiercely:
"Keep talking! Why don't you talk anymore! Keep talking about how awesome Zhuge Dan is!"
This sharp shout was like a thunderbolt from the blue, and the timid one of the two farmers was so frightened that he peed.
Since Wen Qin took office, he has heard people say bad things about him every day. He is rough and cruel by nature, and he is unwilling to be inferior to others. He does not even look down on his superiors, let alone those who are as worthless in his eyes.
Common people farmers, traffickers and pawns.
Wen Qin saw the two men kowtowing, and the anger in his heart was still not gone. He stretched out his feet viciously and trampled the two farmers to the ground. Then, he pulled out his left hand "rubbing, rubbing" as fast as lightning.
The two guards beside them threw the Huanshou swords bent at their waists in front of the two farmers, and then shouted:
"If you are not cowards, then pick up these two knives and compete with me. If you can take on my moves, maybe if I am in a good mood, I can spare your life! Pick up the knife.
stand up!"
The two farmers had no such courage. They just kept kowtowing to apologize and begging for mercy. Wen Qin became even more angry when he saw the two cowards.
The iron divination halberd hit one of the farmers on the head. The farmer was pecked to a bloody pulp and died on the spot.
"I said, pick up the knife! Damn it!"
The other farmer was spattered with blood, and for a moment he seemed to go crazy. He howled, picked up the standard sword on the ground, and rushed towards Wen Qin as if he didn't care about his life!
"You stupid dog officer, I will fight with you! Ah!"
Wen Qin saw the young farmer's courage to risk his life and survive, and a satisfied smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
There was another "whoop" sound. Before the farmer could see clearly what Wen Qin did, he died in the street. The people nearby had already been scared out of their wits. Those who set up stalls, opened shops, and ate...
The seller had long since disappeared.
Wen Qin took the cloth handed over by his subordinate, and while wiping the blood on his hands, he muttered:
"There is no one who can fight, it's boring!"

Shouchun, governor's office.
At this moment, Zhuge Dan, who had been busy with official duties all day, finally returned to his house. When Zhuge Liang saw his father returning to his house, he immediately ran over happily:
"Daddy!"
"Hey, pretty!"
Zhuge Dan took the running son into his arms and held him in the air three times. Zhong Changqin, who had just walked out of the house, saw the energetic father and son and couldn't help laughing:
"You are a grown-up, why are you still acting like a child? You must be hungry. Take your child to wash your hands and follow me to the hall for dinner."
The family of three had dinner under the service of the servants. After talking about some official matters, little Zhuge Liang, who had a sweet voice, suddenly said:
"I heard that Brother Mingyue's birthday was very lively a few days ago!"
Zhuge Dan laughed and said:
"No, the general specially organized the banquet between the two families. I'm afraid it will be difficult to have such a grand event again in ten years."
Zhuge Liang pursed his lips and said:
"Then after this year's New Year, next time I ask my brother to come to Yangzhou, and Liang'er will stay in Luoyang as a hostage, so that Liang'er can attend Brother Mingyue's fourth birthday!"
After Zhuge Dan heard this, he took a bite of his meal and said with a vague smile:
"It depends on you, everything depends on you!"
The family finished their dinner happily in this way.
At this moment, the Zhuge Mansion's soldiers from outside the mansion hurriedly came to the courtyard and informed that there was something urgent that they needed to present to the envoy.
After Zhuge Dan met his soldiers, he saw an angry look on his face and reported:
"Your Majesty, I heard that Wen Zhongruo was killing people in Lujiang again, and even disguised the innocent people he killed as spies of the Wu army, killing good people and taking credit for their merits!"
After Zhuge Dan heard this, he became furious and smashed the celadon teacup in his hand. He, who had always been well-mannered, actually said angrily:
"Damn it, why didn't you report the school affairs you arranged for me to me earlier? If I hadn't arranged for you to go to various counties for overt and covert inspections, I'm afraid I would still be kept in the dark to this day! Wen Zhongruo is also a famous general after all.
A high-ranking official is so despicable and cruel, I will kill him to show the anger of the people!"
