He put the horse's hoof gold in his palm and shook it. After feeling its weight, he immediately smiled and said to Wang Jun, "Don't worry, sir. My Marquis also admires Zhang Jishi very much. I want to come to Marquis Zhang."
When I learn that Governor Zhang has something to ask for, I will definitely summon you."
"This requires little brother to say a few nice words in front of the Marquis!" Wang Jun complimented at the right time.
"Easy to say, easy to say!" When the young boy heard Wang Jun's flattering words, his eyebrows suddenly danced, and then he walked into the house of the champion. After a while, he came out and said that the champion wanted to see Wang Jun, so he took the initiative to send him to the house.
Wang Jun introduced a side hall.
When Wang Jun came to this side hall, Xiao Si handed over and left, leaving Wang Jun here alone. However, before Wang Jun waited for a while, a middle-aged man with a height of seven feet, a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and heavy muscles came. p>
This person is none other than one of the top ten regular attendants, the champion Hou Wangfu.
"You are Zhang Yi's man, why are you here?" Wang Fu asked in a strange manner as soon as he came in!
When Wang Jun heard these strange words, he was a little disgusted, but he concealed it very well and did not reveal any flaws. Instead, he straightened up and replied: "Reporting to the champion, Xiao Ke is the person sent by the governor, as ordered.
Come to offer a great gift to the general."
When Wang Fu heard this, a playful smile suddenly flashed across his face, and he said: "I really didn't expect that your governor would have such a background. This gift is really good and won my heart. However, I
If Zhang Yi sent you all the way from Bingzhou to Luoyang, this should be more than just this."
Although Wang Fu is one of the Ten Constant Attendants, this does not mean that he is a fool. On the contrary, he still has certain means, otherwise he would not have been named the Champion Marquis by Liu Hong.
Others didn't know Zhang Yi's identity, but he knew it very well. He was a close associate of the emperor. It was a bit unusual to send someone to send a large sum of money for no reason today. Of course, he had to ask clearly to avoid getting into trouble!
Seeing Wang Fu being so cautious, Wang Jun was not surprised, because all this was within his expectation. Wang Jun pondered slightly in his heart, organized what he should say, and then said immediately:
"Reporting to the champion, Mr. Zhang was once a member of the emperor's personal army, but he has been constrained by others since he arrived in Bingzhou."
"The strength of the Wang family in Taiyuan is unfathomable. With the Wang family around, Mr. Zhang's life is not comfortable. Therefore, he always thinks about His Majesty the Emperor and often hopes to return to His Majesty and listen to His Majesty's teachings." "But Mr. Zhang felt that it would be shameless to ask for an audience with His Majesty directly, so he thought of the Champion. You are a popular person next to His Majesty, and your words have weight."
"Therefore, Mr. Zhang sent a special villain from Bingzhou to Luoyang this time in the hope that the champion prince would be able to deal with it and transfer him to the capital as an official. It would be better if there was a Jiuqing position. In this way,
The adults in my family can also support each other with the champion!"
"Jiu Qing? Zhang Yi, this guy has such a big appetite!" What's more, Wang Fu had already guessed that Zhang Yi wanted to ask for something, and was frightened by his amazing appetite. After all, the latter asked for Jiu Qing as soon as he opened his mouth.
position.
Jiuqing is the general name for the chief executives of the central government in ancient China.
The historian Sima Qian recorded in his historical literary work "Historical Records": "The saints who heard about ancient times did not live in the court, but must be in the divination and medicine.
Now I have seen the officials of the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers of the court, and I can tell them all. I will try to observe and draw from the divination numbers."
In the Western Han Dynasty, Jiuqing means a group of ministers or ministers.
In the pre-Qin literature, there is the theory of the Three Gongs and the Nine Qings, but Qin did not have such a system, and the names of the Nine Qings were not seen in the early Western Han Dynasty.
After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, due to the influence of Confucian retro thought, people attached themselves to the ancient Jiuqing by high-ranking officials with a rank of two thousand stones.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the nine ministers referred to respectively: Taichang, Guangluxun, Weiwei, Taipu, Tingwei, Dahonglu, Zongzheng, Dasinong, and Shaofu.
And Jiuqing belongs to three divisions.
Taichang, Guang Luxun, Weiwei Sanqing and Taiwei's subordinates;
Taipu, Tingwei, Dahonglu and the three ministers and Situ's subordinates;
Zongzheng, Da Sinong, Shaofu Sanqing and Sikong Subu;
Jiuqing is an official with a rank of two thousand shi, and most of them are promoted to the Three Dukes. Each of them is assigned to Cao Cao and serves as a member of the clan.
In other words, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, if you wanted to ascend to the throne of Sangong, you must first have the status of Jiuqing.
This shows that Jiu Qing’s status in the court is very high!
It is precisely because of this that Wang Fu lost his composure.
However, Wang Fu did not say anything completely. After all, since Zhang Yi dared to ask for this official position from him, he must have his own confidence, and he wanted to take a look.
I saw Wang Fu pretending to be profound and said: "Jiu Qing is an extraordinary person. Even if I can say something right in front of His Majesty, I would not dare to give such a guarantee. This requires your Majesty's golden words to make it happen." Wang Fu's words are indeed correct. Jiuqing is only under the Three Dukes, with a high position and great reputation that only the emperor can grant.
"Don't worry, champion, my lord will naturally not make things difficult for you. This time, Yanmen Sima Wang Chong repelled the Xianbei army at Yanmen Pass. He will use this credit to negotiate with my lord."
"He can give the credit for this battle to my family as a way to get into the profession, but my family must leave Bingzhou. My family just happened to want to leave a long time ago. If I encounter such an opportunity, of course I will not miss it!" "So, Mr. Zhang wants to use this great achievement to advance his career, and I hope the champion can help me." Wang Jun said respectfully.
"Xianbei was actually defeated?" Wang Fu stood up immediately and said in shock. Then he discovered his gaffe and adjusted his mentality and continued: "Wang Chong is really courageous. He deserves to be the boss of the Wang family. This
I want to remove this nail in your family!"
After Wang Fu pondered for a while, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Wang Jun: "I already know about this matter. Since the Wang family is so generous, your master naturally has to give it up. If this merit can really fall into the hands of your family, he will
It is indeed not difficult to get the position of Jiuqing, but it is easy."
"You should go back to Bingzhou first and report to your family. Let him discuss it with the Wang family. The Wang family should have contributed a lot. As long as this matter is done, he can rest assured and wait for the good news."<
/p>
"So, thank you so much, sir!" Wang Jun bowed to Wang Fu again, and then took the initiative to say goodbye and leave, leaving Wang Fu in the side hall to meditate.

Luoyang City, Beigong, in the palace where Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong lived.
"Eunuch Zhang, please inform Your Majesty that Wang Fu wants to see you for something important." Wang Fu said to an eunuch outside the Beigong Palace with fear.
That eunuch was none other than Zhang Rang, the later great eunuch. Although Zhang Rang was not as powerful as he was after the Yellow Turban Uprising, Wang Fu still would not underestimate him, because he was the one who even the emperor called 'Rang's father'.
People.
"The champion is so polite!" Faced with Wang Fu's compliments, Zhang Rang just smiled, and then walked in to report. After a while, he brought Wang Fu in, and he was guarding him.
"Your Majesty..."
After Wang Fu entered, he explained to Liu Hong one by one what he had said to Wang Jun!
Liu Hong turned blue after hearing this. He did not expect that Tan Shihuai would be defeated so quickly. He was simply a waste.
"Wang Yue, go to Bingzhou quickly and investigate these things." Liu Hong said to a young man next to him. This young man looked about thirty years old. He was wearing a white robe and holding a long sword. He looked like he was no ordinary person.<
/p>
This person is none other than the Great Han Sword God Wang Yue.
Wang Yue was a native of Yanshan, Liaodong. He was born in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He practiced martial arts hard since he was a child and became famous for his fencing. He was a famous knight in the local area.
When Wang Yue was eighteen years old, in order to fight against the injustice of the local Han people, he entered Helan Mountain alone. As if he was in an uninhabited land, he forcibly took the head of the leader of the Qiang tribe who had committed many evil deeds, and returned with a great victory. From then on, he became famous all over the world.
.
Because of this achievement, Wang Yue was called the Hero of Liaodong and began to travel around the states. Over the years, countless swordsmanship masters in the world challenged him, but they all came back defeated.
And Wang Yue, because of his superb swordsmanship, defeated invincible opponents in the world, and was revered as the Sword God by those in the world. It was precisely because of Wang Yue's fame that he was appreciated by Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, and he chose to enter the court.
Go to Beijing and serve as the swordsmanship teacher of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty!
However, this is only a superficial identity of Wang Yue. His true identity is one of the three commanders of Da So He.
Who is the big one? This is a spy organization with the same nature as the Jinyiwei. Its fundamental purpose is to maintain the rule of the empire. Wang Yue can hold this position of leader, which shows the emperor's trust in him.
Five days later!
Wang Yue is a master after all, and his speed is so fast. In addition, Luoyang is not that far from Bingzhou, so five days is enough.
Of course, this is just because the Wang family wants Wang Yue to know. Otherwise, it would be unrealistic for him, a master warrior, to find out anything in Bingzhou.
After seeing what Wang Yue found out, Liu Hong couldn't help but his face turned black. This was a naked threat!
By now, Liu Hong may have understood the intention of the Wang family. He blatantly told Liu Hong that I gave Zhang Yi the credit for the victory at Yanmen Pass. If you take him away, the position of governor of Bingzhou must be held by the Wang family.
As for Wang Chong and others who were implicated due to the party's imprisonment, it's time for them to stand up and continue to serve as officials.
Liu Hong was very angry, but there was nothing he could do. Even if he was the emperor, he did not dare to completely break up with the Wang family, especially since the Wang family's contribution was really great this time.
Therefore, even if he is unhappy, he has to bite the bullet and swallow it.
…………
…………
The next day.
Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong, as if nothing had happened, was still sitting on the throne with a majestic look. Then he looked at the ministers standing in the hall and asked loudly: "My dear friends, do you have any questions?"
Report on the matter?"
As soon as Liu Hong finished speaking, Wang Fu walked out from the crowd as if he was ready, and then said: "Your Majesty, I have something to report to you."
Wang Fu's positioning of himself was very precise. He was just a slave. Only when the emperor used him did he have his life, so his loyalty to the emperor was quite good.
Moreover, Wang Fu really wanted to expand his power in the imperial court. Duan Ying alone was not enough. He also needed more generals so that he could have a status on the emperor's side.
As for Zhang Yi, the governor of Bingzhou, it doesn't matter whether his merits are really important. What matters most is that the emperor is willing to put the credit on him, and he has already sent someone to give him a big gift respectfully. Faced with this,
Wang Fu is naturally willing to help such a knowledgeable person!
What's more, the emperor already has a plan in mind, he just needs to do his own thing.
Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong was very satisfied when he saw Wang Fu's remarks, but there was still no flaw on his face. He pretended not to know and asked: "I wonder if the champion has anything to say."
Wang Fu took a step forward and continued to say to Liu Hong: "Your Majesty, I have received a happy event today, and I want to report it to Your Majesty."
"I wonder where the champion Hou Xi comes from?" Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty pretended to be confused!
Wang Fu immediately knelt down and replied with a male duck's voice: "Your Majesty, I'm so happy that Yanmen Pass is a great victory. Tan Shihuai led an army of 300,000 to invade Yanmen Pass this time. After hearing the news, Zhang Yi, the governor of Bingzhou, personally
Lead the army to support Yanmen Pass."
"After arriving at Yanmen Pass, he joined forces with Yanmen Prefect Guo Yun and Yanmen Sima Wang Chong to resist the enemy's defense at Yanmen Pass. He even risked his life and went into battle himself. After half a month of bloody battle, he finally defeated the Xianbei army."<
/p>
"Because the Xianbei army suffered heavy losses, Tan Shihuai retreated!"
There were clearly only a few hundred thousand troops, but Wang Fu exaggerated the number to three hundred thousand. Even, in order to increase the authenticity of the matter, Wang Fu directly made up a series of unfounded stories about how he defeated the Xianbei army.
I'm afraid he himself thinks that these are all Wang Chong's actions. Now that he is pinned on Zhang Yi, he is so shameless. He is really a talent.
Hearing Wang Fu's words, all the ministers in the hall couldn't help but have black lines on their foreheads. That was an army of 300,000 people. Does Zhang Yi have such ability?
These ministers were not very clear about the number of incoming prisoners. They only knew that Tan Shihuai brought a large army to the border this time, and the situation at Yanmen Pass was critical.
However, no one refuted it. After all, this was approved by the emperor, and it did not harm their interests, but was beneficial. After all, they have been worried about the situation in Bingzhou these days.
Because if Bingzhou is lost, they will not be at peace in Luoyang. As for whether Zhang Yi defeated him or not, the people present are not fools, so they can understand it tacitly.
"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty. This is the blessing of the ancestors of the Han Dynasty, so that we can have a great victory at Yanmen Pass. However, this also depends on your majesty's great blessings. Otherwise, how can we get such a grand honor? So, we can defeat Xianbei this time."
This army is all thanks to your Majesty’s efforts.”
After Wang Fu reported the results of the battle, Zhang Rang immediately began to flatter him and made Emperor Ling very happy. It seems that there was a reason why Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty favored him so much in the later period.
