Chapter 5 Gongsun bullying the prefect at the gate of the city
There is a reason why Gongsun Xun smiled bitterly.
It can't be a bad thing that Zhong Yao is right in front of him, and doesn't he know that this person is the "talent of the Prime Minister"?
But the problem is that the Zhong family of Changsha was originally a famous noble family in Yingchuan. Zhong Yao's great-grandfather Zhong Hao was one of the four chiefs of Yingchuan. He mentored Chen Qun's grandfather Chen Shi, served as a situ, gave public lectures for decades, and often served as a servant.
There are two to three thousand students. Moreover, the Zhong family has been married to the family of Li Ying, the last model in the world, for several generations, entangled with each other and integrated into one. Even Zhong Yao himself has served as a county official, as early as Yin Xiu Ren, the prefect of Yingchuan.
Within a short period of time, he has reached the position of county meritorious officer, which can be said to be the pinnacle of county officials.
In other words, under the current background of the loosening of party shackles, based on Zhong's personal connections and Zhong Yao's own talents, Qian Yuanchang may be called up by the imperial court at any time to become a minister or something like that.
Position, and all the way to noble status, the future is bright.
Of course, the above are just common sense guesses, which most people can imagine, but Gongsun Xun knows better than anyone else that Zhong Yao's officialdom will only be bigger than imagined.
What do you use to recruit this kind of person? The knife in his hand?
The same principle applies to the Xun family in Yingyin, which is adjacent to Changshe. There are more talents there, but they are more ferocious... It is said that as soon as the party was lifted, the capital began to discuss recruiting Xun Yu's uncle Xun Shuang to be a minister.
Yes.
All in all, when the Party was under control, Gongsun Xun's identity and opportunity had not yet come, he could not reach these Yingchuan talents who came from noble families; but now that the Party was under control, although his status as Gongsun Xun was enough, he could not
Everyone has a bright future, but they no longer need to think about whose aide Qu is.
And besides, this is not the time to think about such things - after all, Zhong Yao is only a big shot in the future, but Huangfu Song, who is a big shot now, is already right in front of him, and this is the first thing to deal with.
In other words, when Gongsun Xun saw the people coming out to greet him from a distance, he dismounted and walked forward while thinking about the matter. Unexpectedly, the Zhong family, Huangfu Song and his staff were also observing with complicated expressions.
he.
"How?" Seeing Huangfu Song also move forward to greet him, Zhong Yao's uncle Zhong Yu, who was lagging behind, took the opportunity to ask his nephew in a low voice. "Yuan Chang has been a county meritorious officer for many years and has seen countless people. What do you think of this
Who is General White Horse?"
Zhong Yao slowly shook his head while walking forward: "Nothing."
"Why is this so?" Zhong Yu was a little hard to understand. "At least you can get a glimpse of his demeanor, not to mention that this person's past deeds are known to the world!"
"Too young!" Zhong Yao lowered his head and replied. "This person is five or six years younger than me, and he already has the tendency to be an extremely popular minister. Therefore, all common sense cannot be reflected in this person... Besides, in today's world
The situation has become vaguely wrong, and it’s hard to say whether it was the truth in the past or not.”
Zhong Yu was silent for a moment.
"However." Zhong Yao suddenly said again. "Since we have entered the city and we are accompanying him, we may be able to get a closer look at this person's reality. We may gain something by then."
"It doesn't matter if you can't get it." Zhong Yu fell back and smiled bitterly. "Anyway, this battle is a great victory, and the siege of Changshe has been solved. Why care about this person? It's not like before when a hundred thousand troops besieged the city. Once it overturned, the whole family would be mobilized.
Only then will you be able to make guesses about these generals..."
This time it was Zhong Yao's turn to be silent.
"Huangfu Gong!" Gongsun Xun approached him for more than ten steps and held the ceremony in the distance. "We have been away from Jiade Hall for more than a month. I don't want to see Huangfu Gong again today."
"Wen Qi really embarrasses me." Huangfu Song was in his fifties and was a general, but his tone was as kind as a pure Confucian, which was in sharp contrast to Teacher Lu, a famous Confucian at home. "Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, all states have
Tens of thousands of people gathered, but Guangyang and Dongjun were the first to be overthrown, but they were both easily wiped out by Wen Qi. It is precisely because of this that you and I can see each other again today."
Gongsun Xun immediately laughed: "The Yellow Turbans of Guangyang have 30,000 people and Dongjun has 40,000. Together they can't compare to Zhu Gong's overthrow of a hundred thousand enemies in this battle, right? If we talk about being good at fighting, Zhu Gong is the first... I don't know what Zhu Gong is doing now."
Where?"
Huangfu Song was startled for a moment, and then he couldn't help but laugh: "As Wen Qi said, Zhu Gongwei cheated and failed, but he caught Tian Dan's plan and took the greatest credit... He is now out of the city to supervise the war."
"So that's it." Gongsun Xun heard this and turned back to Han Dang with a serious look on his face. "Yi Gong, please pass on the order immediately. Now the only general who holds the festival outside the city is You Zhonglang, General Zhu Gong, so he rides on his own.
From Commander Cao Mengde on down, all the troops must obey his orders!"
Han Dang immediately raised his hand and said yes, and then dozens of people riding on white horses immediately dispersed and went off to deliver the order.
"Wen Qi's White Horse Yi Cong is indeed well-deserved!" Huangfu Song is a general after all. Seeing Gongsun Xun's Yi Cong order and prohibition, he couldn't help but admire it. "He is really brave and brave. I think he can even be equal to ten on the battlefield!"
"Huangfu Gong thinks too much. Although they have some fame, it has nothing to do with their achievements on the battlefield. They became famous because of the execution of eunuchs in Luozhong a few years ago." At this point, Gongsun Xun couldn't help but smile. "In the eyes of the world,
No matter how hard our warriors work on the battlefield, no matter how hard they fight, it can't compare to the one who broke into Wang Fu's house to show off his power that day... That's probably what they mean when they say it's better to do it well than to do it skillfully!"
In other words, as soon as the two parties met, they quietly agreed to give Zhu Jun the gong. Huangfu Song thought that the other party was easy to talk to. Who would have thought that just as they were about to get acquainted further, Gongsun Xun
Saying such sarcastic words also made Huangfu Yizhen feel uncomfortable in public.
However, Huangfu Song had the style of a Confucian general after all, and was almost twice as old as the other party, so he was not willing to argue with the other party. He just laughed dryly and stopped there, and then introduced the other people around him to Gongsun Xun.
The first one actually wore a green ribbon and silver seal, which made Gongsun Xun curious for a moment.
"This is Duke Wen, the prefect of Yingchuan." Huangfu Song pointed at the pale man in his forties. "Yangzhai has been broken. The nineteen cities in Yingchuan only have three cities in the east: Xu County, Yingyin, and Changshe.
After being saved, Duke Wen had no choice but to retreat here... Well, the preservation of Changshe is also due to him."
Seeing this, the man quickly apologized and smiled: "I didn't expect to see General White Horse's style today."
"Master Wenfu!" Gongsun Xun did not return the courtesy after knowing the identity of the other party. Instead, he sneered condescendingly and hid his hands in front of his face. "Don't think about taking the credit, please resign quickly! If your memorial can take advantage of this great victory.
If the news comes to the court together, His Majesty may allow you to escape unscathed! It's a pity that the position of Yingchuan Prefect is so precious. You have worked hard for most of your life to get to this position, but it will be gone in one day, and it may affect your family and clan members in the future.
"
Governor Wen immediately turned pale... Didn't he know that he was going to be unlucky? Sixteen of the nineteen counties were lost, including Yangzhai, the capital of Yingchuan, and Huanyuan Pass, the gateway to Luoyang, were all attacked by Bocai. It would be strange if this was not unlucky.
It's just that I know it in my heart, but it's a bit hard to accept it being pulled out in front of my face.
"Why did the general say this?" Prefect Wen asked reluctantly, but he was also thinking of luck.
"Don't you know, Duke Wen?" Gongsun Xun became more and more sarcastic when he saw this. "When I came to Yingchuan from Dongjun, the court had already agreed that Prince Yun of Taiyuan would serve as the governor of Yuzhou and inspect all parts of Yuzhou. I and that I have some dealings with Master Wang and know his arrogant temper... If you don't take the initiative to resign before he leaves, I'm afraid you will be driven into Luo."
Upon hearing the last sentence, Prefect Wen immediately lost his ability and fell down. Fortunately, two county officials behind him hurriedly stepped forward to support him, preventing him from making a huge fool of himself.
By the way, when Gongsun Xun had just dismounted and secretly agreed with Huangfu Song to commend Zhu Jun, everyone thought he was a modest gentleman. However, in the blink of an eye, he continued to ridicule the two most important people at the scene, but he made the city gate besieged by the army. People from all over the county looked at him sideways.
Of course, in the eyes of so-called sensible people, this is not incomprehensible... Including Huangfu Song, many people think that Gongsun Xun's small temper is completely acceptable. After all, he is young and has a high position, and he has taken the initiative to give in to such a big man. So what if you lose your temper a little bit?
Zhong Yu, for example, couldn't help but smile in a low voice to his nephew: "He is a border commander after all, and he can express emotions and emotions..."
"No!" Zhong Yao immediately denied. "It's so courageous to give up such a great contribution at the first glance. How can you be depressed because of it?"
"What does that mean?" Zhong Yu was confused.
Zhong Yao also bowed his head deeply and replied: "I'm afraid that the credit goes to the right middle man first, and the virtue goes to the left middle man again... Huangfu Gong first spoke about the party's imprisonment, and the kindness was shown to the left and right. I'm afraid he will have to do it in the future. Something happened!"
"Who do you think is going to happen?"
At this moment, Yuanchang, who was talking with his head lowered, suddenly heard someone in front of him asking questions. He looked up and saw that it was General Gongsun Xun, the White Horse General, the Marquis of Wulu Pavilion, and the Zhonglang General with Chijie and Five Features!
The shouts of killing in the west were getting farther and farther away, but the uncle and nephew at the city gate looked at each other and immediately started sweating.
"Forget it!" Gongsun Xun actually let it go lightly. "Is this what you are doing to Qian Yuanchang?"
"That's right." Zhong Yao woke up from sweating profusely and quickly saluted respectfully. "I don't want the general to know that I have a bad reputation."
"There are many heroes in Yingchuan, but Yuan Chang is the best among heroes. How could I not know that?" Gongsun Xun said with a smile. "Not to mention, someone just told me that you are a talented prime minister!"
Yan Zhong apologized in embarrassment for a moment, but then became solemn... Huangfu Song was ridiculed by Leng Buding. Although many people including Huangfu Yizhen didn't care, as his staff, he couldn't pretend to be as enthusiastic as before. Face?
Gongsun Xun didn't seem to care about Yan Zhong anymore, but said to a scribe behind him again: "Uncle Zi, I saw Sun Wentai's heroic appearance on the battlefield before, and I already felt that I had seen something today, and I don't want to see him again now." "Qian Yuanchang, I met two heroes in one day, don't you think this is my luck?"
The young scribe who followed Gongsun Xun also laughed on the spot when he heard this, and then suddenly raised his hands solemnly and congratulated: "Your Majesty is indeed very lucky today!"
After this gesture, everyone could naturally notice that Gongsun Xun was actually more polite and kind in his words at this time, and he had such high regard for a former county commander who was living at home, compared to the way he just faced the general Huangfu Song.
The insinuations and the explicit taunts of the two thousand Shiwen prefects were like heaven and earth, which made people even more astonished.
However, Zhong Yao, who had become the center of attention, leaned over and bowed his hands in thanks, but he couldn't help but start sweating again.

"Zhong Yao, whose courtesy name is Yuanchang, is a native of Changshe, Yingchuan. He went to Luoyang with his clan father Yu, and when he met his friend, he said: 'This boy has a noble appearance, so he should be in danger of the water, so be careful about it!' After traveling for less than ten miles, Du
On the bridge, the horse was frightened and almost died when he fell into the water. Yu said what he said was true, and it benefited Yao and provided tuition fees to enable him to learn professionally." - "Shishuoxinyu", Shijian Chapter.
ps: I have to admit my mistake... I can't update like this... I'm lazy... I just chatted with people in the group at night, and I didn't even think about typing. Seeing that the time was up, I was so sleepy... In the end, there was nothing.
I wrote a mere 3,000 words, but I really don’t have the face to show it to anyone... I have to change it back. So I’m requesting a formal leave of absence. The next chapter will be tomorrow night... I’ll make a big chapter by then, which will be considered an apology, and it will also be considered as a contribution to the amount of updates this month.
A perfect ending. From now on, I will do more discovery at night... This so-called timing in the morning is not bad, but I have too little self-control. The experiment failed... Apologize!
