With Han Wen leaving Yumen in the west, the Liangzhou incident came to an end.
Perhaps there are still many hidden dangers, and perhaps these hidden dangers will turn into serious problems in the future, but that is a matter for the future.
Perhaps integrating the twelve counties of Liang and Zang into the Yecheng system is an extremely complicated task, but that is the matter of Wang Xiu and Lu Fan. Gongsun Xun only needs to pay attention to the personnel appointment and dismissal issues at the two thousand stone level.
.
Therefore, at least from a strategic perspective, in the early winter of the fifth year of Jian'an, this wound that had caused the Han Dynasty to bleed for hundreds of years finally officially became the Zang and Liang Erzhou under Gongsun Xun's rule.
.
Of course, he returned to the Han Dynasty.
So, in October, Gongsun Xun disbanded the local soldiers and horses in Liangzhou, sent back Ningshuo general Zhang Sheng's troops to return to Yinshan, and left Gongsun Yue to temporarily stationed in Liangzhou to oversee the establishment of Zangzhou, the governor of Liangzhou. This was also a slight deterrent, and let Taiyuan
After the prefect Chang Lin took charge of Bingzhou Prefecture, he did not wait for Zhao Yun to return to the army, directly led an army of about ten thousand people, went south to Wudu, and garrisoned in Hechi Yidai south of Sanguan. He repeated his old tricks and began to politically induce Zhang Lu to surrender.
To be fair, Hanzhong is not easy to fight. This place has mountains, rivers and narrow roads. Moreover, Nanzheng, which is governed by Hanzhong County, is also a first-class famous city, a large city, and a fortified city. In addition, Zhang Lu himself ruled effectively and had religious support to confuse people.
The hearts of the people, so if ten thousand people attack Hanzhong, it is completely possible for Han Xin to break his teeth.
However, Gongsun Xun had something on his mind and had no real intention to mobilize the army to use force. However, even so, Zhang Tianshi fell into an extremely tangled situation...
First of all, what do you want in life?
It's okay to be a dog to Liu Yan, but wouldn't it be better to be a dog to General Wei? You can also take the opportunity to clear your name and turn from a heavenly master, bandit, and rebel into a serious official.
But the problem is that Zhang Lu is a filial son, but at this time Zhang Lu's mother is being held hostage in Mianzhu. In fact, she is the concubine of Liu Yan who is resident in Mianzhu, that is, the little mother of Liu Fan who passed by before. Think about the reason why Zhang Lu was
The reason why he was able to separate Hanzhong was first of all because of his mother's support. This was also true for being able to obtain the military power from Liu Yan to send troops to Hanzhong. This was also true for defeating the prefect of Hanzhong and annexing his colleague Zhang Xiu and being acquiesced by Liu Yan.
Under such circumstances, how could you let Zhang Lu leave Yizhou so easily?
In this regard, after Gongsun Xun knew the truth, he was very appropriate. He took the initiative to send the newly married Jiang Gan and Jiang Ziyi to Yizhou and asked him to find Liu Yan. Liu Fan and his son wanted Zhang Tianshi's mother! Otherwise, they would send a large army to destroy Shu.
of!
Of course, Gongsun Xun didn't explain how to bypass Hanzhong and send a large army to defeat Shu. If he wanted to come to Yizhou, General Wei's old colleague Liu Junlang might be able to understand...
In short, throughout mid-to-late October, Gongsun Xun had been sitting in Wudu, and then observing the situation in the east, where the troops were also winter camping... It was a pity that those who were related to Hanzhong, Yang Xiu and Yang Dezu, went there
In Pingguo, Liaodong, Fa Zheng and Fa Xiaozhi went to serve under Cheng Pu, otherwise they would have had a lot of fun.
"What are you doing in the army?" After General Wei Gongsun Xun studied the Taiping Sutra all day, he finally started to care about military affairs.
"It's just Cuju, and I know how to do it." Pang De answered immediately.
"Why did I hear that there was a conflict in the army yesterday, and there was a fight?" Under the afternoon sun, Gongsun Xun, dressed in brocade clothes and carrying a sword in his sleeves, stood up slightly and moved his crotch bandage, still sitting upright and reading the "Taiping Sutra", as if
Don't take it seriously.
"There was no fight, otherwise Han Hujun would have dealt with it long ago. Instead, there was a conflict below, and they ended it on the Cuju field. However, because one of the parties was General Zhang Wenyuan, there was some suspicion of a 'fight'.
My lord also knows that this kind of thing is normal for General Zhang." Pang De explained seriously. "Rather than saying that there is anything slightly wrong with this matter, it is that the party who was beaten this time was Zhao.
General Department..."
"oh?"
"General Zhao sent a team of cavalry here to report the trip the day before yesterday, but there was a conflict with General Zhang's department over the designation of the future station of General Zhao's Department. Since it was a separate department, General Zhang could not deal with it directly, so he let them go.
.”
"Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao." Gongsun Xun continued to read the "Taiping Jing" and shook his head for a while. "This is jealousy..."
Pound was about to speak but stopped.
"Speak." Gongsun Xun's face was expressionless. "The civil protection army is absent. You are the only one who protects the army. You must have a clearer posture."
"Yes!" Pang De said seriously immediately. "In fact, General Zhao Zilong has already made great achievements as a savior. He was also born in Hebei and has a vivid resume, which is far beyond what I can match. In addition, Liangzhou broke through Wushan and sneaked into Didao.
, empty camp to stop the enemy and other things, it is indeed a great achievement and he is both wise and brave, so in fact, no one has any objection to him being named the champion general... There has been talk in the army as early as Yecheng, saying that General Zhao is a good general.
If you do nothing, as long as you don't make mistakes, you will be a very popular minister sooner or later. But this time, not only General Zhang Wenyuan, but also General Xu Bojin, and other generals in the army, there are many discussions, because
…”
"It's because of the extra rank, right?" Gongsun Xun blurted out.
"Yes." Pound nodded immediately.
Gongsun Xun shook his head and laughed.
In other words, increasing rank and increasing salary are not the same concept. The latter is simply to improve material benefits, while the former is a clear-cut political treatment.
For example, not long after Emperor Ling ascended the throne, when a disaster happened, the three princes were supposed to take the blame. However, several three princes had already gone to the throne at that time. It was difficult to let the newcomers step down, so the emperor's master Yang Ci took the initiative to take over the responsibility.
He chose to take the throne himself. In order to prevent some people from misjudging, Emperor Ling took the initiative to give Yang Ci a salary of five thousand shi for his idle doctor position.
From then on, everyone understood that once Emperor Ling came to power, Yang Ci's position would be guaranteed, and even the eunuchs would rarely attack him.
When it comes to Gongsun Xun, there is also a precedent for the promotion of rank. Guangyang Prefect Zao Zhi is a diligent and hard-working official. He is still a subordinate Yuan Cong at the same time as Xi Zhong, Dong Zhao and others, but he has an upright character.
, he always offends people, is slow to speak, and doesn't know how to show his merits at all, so he suffers losses in everything he does. Not only did Gongsun Xun privately give him a special way to write letters, but he also tried to increase his rank to three after he tried to work as a laborer.
Qian Shi, his status and treatment are much higher than those of ordinary prefects.
This is a very clear political signal that the guard general wants to tell everyone that this is my person and don't provoke him because you think he is easy to bully.
As for the vacancies of Liangzhou Mu and Yongzhou Mu, there will inevitably be adjustments in the ranks of important ministers. Many people have speculated that the Guangyang Prefect, who was previously inconspicuous, will be like the Taiyuan Prefect Chang Lin and the Hedong Prefect Du Ji.
He is the frontrunner to enter the second-grade state pastoral level.
Switching to Zhao Yun, it will naturally arouse discussion, not only because Zhao Yun has a calm personality, but also because he is a military general, and the competitive atmosphere in the army has always been more naked.
"What are you talking about?" After Gongsun Xun finished laughing, he simply put away the "Taiping Jing" and raised his knife to face him.
Pang De was both older than the others, but he didn't dare not say anything: "Some people say that this is because General Zhao's contribution to the rescue in western Liaoning was too great before, and this time it was particularly conspicuous, so he made up for it and is not worth mentioning."
"Anything worth mentioning?"
"There is another argument, which is that...it is that if my lord can take Hanzhong this time, you will set up a special general in Mian, Wudu in the upper reaches of Han Dynasty, in the Hanzhong area, following the example of Guan Zhendong and Cheng Zhennan."
Gongsun Xun was stunned for a moment.
Pang De continued to preach seriously: "In any case, this position certainly cannot and dare not be compared with Cheng and Guan. But to the east, this place can control Nanyang and Xiangyang; to the south, it may control Bashu. It is definitely an excellent position."
Therefore, the generals in the army suspected that they wanted General Zhao to perform this duty, and the generals were naturally excited and a little impatient."
"Why didn't I think of that?" Gongsun Xun slammed his hand on the book. "It's a pity that I didn't bring Yuan Hao with me when I came out this time. Otherwise, with his strategic vision, he would have reminded me. Why did he only think of this section from you?"
?”
This time it was Pound's turn to be stunned: "Didn't my lord have this intention before?"
"Of course not." Gongsun Xun sat there and said angrily. "Think about it, I don't even have any hope in Hanzhong, so how could I think of this section?"
"Then, General Zhao's rank increase...?"
"Does this need to be said?" Gongsun Xun didn't mean to hide anything from Pang De. "First of all, he really felt that Zilong didn't fight or grab before, which was more of a compensation; secondly, it was just to motivate the generals! Please note that the army
Although most of the generals are heroes, many of them have character problems, such as Yun Chang (Guan Yu) who is arrogant rather than capable, De Mou (Cheng Pu) who is proud of his qualifications, and Bo Jin (Xu Rong) who is ignorant of his abilities.
Generally speaking, you are partial to petty matters, Zhang Wenyuan (Zhang Liao) is unruly, Zhang Junyi is clique-oriented, and Ma Mengqi (Ma Chao) is filial...which one should not worry me?"
Pound couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"They are Su Qing (Gao Shun), Zi Yi (Tai Shi Ci), and Gong Ming (Xu Huang). I actually like them very much, but to be fair, Su Qing is too innocent and cold to communicate with his colleagues; and Zi
Yi has a flamboyant personality and often disregards the overall situation just for the sake of a single sentence; Gongming is too strict in running the army, and his soldiers have never secretly complained more than once... Therefore, this is to set a benchmark for other generals."
Gongsun Xun finally revealed the final answer to the mystery. "Otherwise, why were the champion generals added? Just to make them stare at Zilong!"
Pang De nodded quickly.
Of course, Gongsun Xun did not reveal a vague additional motive after all. He saw that Zhao Yun was young and had a good personality, and that he could be entrusted with his heirs, so he wanted to use his rank to give Lu Fan and others in Yecheng a political boost.
signal, and this intention seems to be more important.
"That's good." Gongsun Xun thought for a while, then rolled up the "Taiping Jing" in his hand and handed it to Pang De. "If Zhang Wenyuan is too busy, let him read the "Taiping Jing"..."
Pang De was panicked for a moment, but he quickly nodded and prepared to deliver the book.
"Come back." Gongsun Xun suddenly waved his hand again.
Pound also immediately turned around.
"This boy who sent me the book may not have read it." Gongsun Xun responded sternly. "Anyway, I have free time... Tell the generals and officers of Yi Cong that from tomorrow on, anyone who is not on duty will come here for class every day. I will teach them
Give a one-hour Confucian lesson."
Pound held the scripture in his hand and was really speechless.
Hanzhong was at a deadlock, and Gongsun Xun was bored to the point of giving lessons. The reason was not because of Zhang Lu's behavior, nor because of Liu Yan's behavior... but because there was no movement in Chang'an.
However, I think it should be soon.
In late October, Chang'an City has gradually become colder. Just as Gongsun Xun started the so-called winter camp, Chang'an City has officially entered the rhythm of winter life:
Watchmen and soldiers on night watch began to receive winter rewards, and ginger soup began to be cooked daily in military camps and towers;
The officials received new coal stoves and coal... Probably starting last year, coal from Bingzhou and Shaanzhou began to be officially transported to the outside world, and it was vigorously promoted by Ye. You can often see large ships hauling coal along the
The Yellow River carries coal downstream to Sanfu and Hebei, so that today the big cities in the north always have black smoke in winter;
Wealthy families, various government offices, and the Weiyang Palace simultaneously began to clean up the earth dragons, the earth dragons, and the kang craftsmen entered the busiest time of the year...
However, these vigorous vitality cannot cover up another restless atmosphere in Chang'an City. To put it bluntly, the old general Gongsun Bogui committed again, and some of his actions after taking power were excessive.
As a person who had been idle before, the so-called short-term Jiuqing was somewhat ignored. Among them, the people on Gongsun Xun's side were taboo about his identity, and the pro-Han faction was even more taboo on him, so the entire Chang'an City was actually against him.
There is something taboo about it, and it has inevitably appeared in daily communication in the past two years.
Therefore, once he became powerful, he actually shared the power and responsibilities inside and outside Chang'an City with Liu Yu. With his mentality of retribution, he would inevitably want to take revenge.
Among them, not to mention Gongsun Xun's core cronies. He still understood to some extent where his power came from. At most, he would just show off his face and make things difficult. However, those so-called pro-Han faction were inevitably in trouble within two or three months.
Five or six people have died, and 20 or 30 people have been imprisoned.
The winter night is long, and at the fourth watch, the sky is still far from getting brighter. In a particularly spacious mansion to the north of Weiyang Palace in Chang'an City, in the back bedroom, Liu Yu and Liu Bo'an, the great Han Taiwei in charge of the secretarial affairs, turned over.
I couldn't help but cough repeatedly.
Next to him, the beautiful concubine whom he had taken in Youzhou and whose charm was still intact hurriedly got up. He lit a lamp, then closed the window, then brought a bowl of warm water soaked with dried loquat fruits, and finally they gently patted each other on the back.
, as if he is used to this.
【.】 "Still getting old." After regaining his composure, Liu Bo'an put down the empty bowl and sighed. "Young people don't even feel the gas of burning coal, but the older people in the court feel a little uncomfortable, but I am the one who feels it.
This person is intolerant of heat and always likes to sleep with the window open."
"Then let the people below burn the earth dragon lightly..." The concubine immediately responded. "Let's close the window and go to sleep."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. "You are really a woman's opinion... The earth dragon of Taiwei's Mansion was burned in connection with the offices of the three gongs and nine ministers on the left and right. If the fever is shallow, I am
It feels good, but aren’t there so many Cao Cao officials on duty at night everywhere who are going to be freezing? And do you know how many poor people in the periphery of these government offices rely on the fire dragon pottery tunnel under the public house to keep warm?
If they are too shallow, what will happen to them?"
"Then my husband simply gave the order to burn charcoal instead of coal! Good charcoal doesn't have so much flavor!" the concubine continued.
"This is no longer a woman's opinion, but a theory that is harmful to the country and the people!" Liu Yu was completely speechless. "Do you know how expensive charcoal is? And how much can Meiji's coal be reduced to after the imperial court gave the Huns a quota of official positions?
For your sake? Zhongdu Guan of Shangshutai has done calculations. In Chang'an, compared with using charcoal, a small wall-mounted stove for heating can save twelve or thirteen money in one winter. But don't you look at it?
Just these twelve or three money, I tell you, this twelve or three money can reduce the number of people who freeze to death in Chang'an City by 70%! And the remaining widows and widowers can individually call on the rich to donate some coal.
If he only needs food, he can survive. Therefore, even if we old people lose half a year of life by burning coal, it is still worth it, because it can save lives!"
The beautiful concubine's eyes turned red after being scolded, but she started to blame: "It's not like I don't know these truths. Who hasn't seen anyone freeze to death in winter? Isn't this because you cough so badly when you see your husband, and I mean to say nice things to you?
Are you happy? Why have you been trained?"
As the saying goes, it is difficult for an old man to straighten up before his young wife. When Liu Boan heard this, he was also embarrassed for a moment, and quickly coaxed the other party: "It's me who talks too much...Actually, it's because I've been in a bad mood these past few days, and I ignored my wife's kindness for a while.
That’s a misunderstanding.”
"Why are you in a bad mood?" The beautiful concubine finished her coquettish act and asked curiously again. "If the matter is not important, you might as well tell me about it."
"Actually, it seems that I have more random thoughts in my mind." Liu Yu smiled bitterly again when he heard this. "Madam, I don't know that in the past two months, when General Wei went westward, the emperor was silent, and four to five of my ten miles of energy was spent on
In order to compete with the later general Gongsun Zan for supremacy, he spent the whole day either thinking about saving this one or appeasing that one... You also know this... But the day before yesterday, after he was invited away by Prince Wang Yun who was dismissed from office and living in a manor outside the city,
Chang'an City has rarely been peaceful for two days, but I started to feel a little unwell, always feeling that something would go wrong somewhere."
The beautiful concubine wanted to speak but stopped.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Liu Yu said sternly. "My wife has left, and the period of filial piety has passed for a long time. If Ahe had not been writing to object, I would have made you my wife long ago. What would be the difference between us?
Unspeakable?”
"I don't understand government affairs, but I feel that you, husband, are not so restless when the general starts to make trouble." The concubine said seriously. "From the day the battle started on the street in the north of Weiyang Palace, my husband began to suddenly start to act.
She fell asleep outside the window, and the coughing problem existed before burning coal, but it only got worse after burning coal."
Liu Yu was shocked at first, then suddenly realized, and finally felt sad.
The beautiful concubine didn't dare to speak when she saw it, but after a long time, Liu Yu realized it himself, and then sighed: "Yes, Madam can see clearly from my side... What is it about Gongsun Zan's behavior that I really deserve?"
What are you worried about? Burning coal and all that is just an excuse for me! The key is that day. After that day, there was a quarrel between the emperor and the minister, and the emperor was young, so the so-called overall situation of the Han Dynasty was actually
It was supported by both the minister and the emperor, and the biggest trouble is the disagreement between the two!"
The beautiful concubine remained silent.
"That's alright!" Liu Bo'an sighed. "Please close the window, madam. Let's close the window and sleep today..."
The beautiful concubine immediately set off to get down from the kang.
However, when he came to the window and was about to close it, he noticed that there were lights in front of him, so he stopped again and went to the outside of the bedroom.
And sure enough, a moment later a servant shouted to each other through the door and window, saying that Yang Mi, the minister on night duty at the Shangshutai, had sent someone to report that there was an urgent report from Hanzhong to the Shangshutai. If it was said that there might be something big there
Change, so please ask the Taiwei to go to the palace quickly.
Liu Yu sighed, his first reaction was that Gongsun Xun was fishing, how could he dare to neglect him? So he immediately got up, tidied up a little, and then went into the palace to go to the Chancellor's desk to stabilize people's hearts to prevent some people from being self-righteous.
It must be understood that the power of public security in Chang'an City is now in the hands of Gongsun Zan. If someone is really confused for a moment, when Gongsun Zan comes back, it will not be as easy as when Zhong Yao acted in the past.
Under the dim starlight, Liu Boan entered Weiyang Palace overnight. At the same time, Gongsun Bogui did not return outside the city.
I am the dividing line at twelve o'clock in Chang'an
"At the end of the Han Dynasty, Taiwei Liu Yu was in charge of the Chancellor's desk. For several years, Chang'an was safe and sound, and he was highly regarded by the public. In the fifth year of Jian'an, general Gongsun Zan ordered Chang'an to maintain peace and order in order to quell Dong Cheng's rebellion. For several months
, The virtue of a meal, the grudges of Yaizhen, are all retaliated, killing and injuring several people who are good at it. But Yu can't control it. Some commentators asked Situ Zhao Qian: "The Taiwei was in charge of Chang'an for five or six years, and then the general was in charge of the advice."
In February and March, why can't we be enemies?" Qian said solemnly: "A gentleman is all about public morality and has no power in himself. A villain is all about private grudges and has no intention of public concern. Now the so-called quarrels are all about fighting and criticizing.
How can there be a person who is powerless and can defeat his wholehearted self?" Everyone sighed. When Zan heard this, he did not dare to move because he was humble. This was because his brother Zhao Wen, the prime minister of Jingzhao County, was accused of corruption and was imprisoned." "Shishuo Xinyu".
