Chapter 427: The First Ming of the Young Phoenix (2)
Chapter 427 The first cry of the phoenix chick (2)
Cao Peng was sitting in a temporary camp by the river, entertaining Zhang Ji, the prefect of Anding County, and others...
Eight thousand households, totaling more than 36,000 people, passed through Anding County in early October and arrived in Zhongwei safely. Cao Peng had built a simple temporary camp in Xi'an, Dahe. The local government in Hedong also arranged the camp.
, began to prepare for the immigration to cross the river. Thirty-six thousand people may not sound like a lot. But it may not be possible to transport these thirty-six thousand people across the river in just a few days and nights. In order to transport
When they immigrated, Zhang Ji, who was the governor of Anding County at that time, used all his strength to summon hundreds of ferries to ply the river to transport the people.
Zhang Ji, courtesy name Derong, was from Gaoling, Fengyi County.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he was recommended by Xia Houyuan and left the town of Chang'an.
However, at this time, Zhang Jifang was over thirty. He became a minor official in the county at the age of sixteen. He was later promoted to Maocai and served as the magistrate of Xinfeng County. Under his rule, he was known as the first among the three assistants at that time. Zhong Yaoduo
This time he wrote a letter of praise and said that "De Rong" was a great talent.
Who is Zhong Yao?
A famous figure in this era!
One of the four major families in Yingchuan, the children of the Zhong family are also extremely proud people.
Even for Cao Peng, Zhong Yao's assessment was only: passable. But for Zhang Ji, he praised him as a pillar.
Anding County, subordinate to Liangzhou, is at the intersection of Longxi, Wuwei and other places.
The reason why Zhang Ji was made the prefect of Anding County was because he had a very close relationship with Ma Teng. In the seventh year of Jian'an, when Gao Gan and Guo Yuan were wreaking havoc, it was Zhang Ji who went to lobby Ma Teng and met with Zhong Yao to defeat Gao.
, Guo Er. Later, he assisted Ma Teng in defeating Zhang Sheng, killed Wei Gu's rebellion, and put down the Kansai Rebellion. He made outstanding contributions and was promoted to the post of prefect.
This time, Zhang Ji specially accompanied the immigrants to meet Cao Peng.
The purpose was to persuade Cao Peng not to quarrel with Ma Teng for the time being.
After all, the current stability in Guanxi is hard-won. If Ma Teng rebels, it will inevitably trigger a rebellion in Guanxi and even turmoil in the entire Guanzhong. This is not only Zhang Ji's idea, but also the meaning of Wei Kang, the governor of Liangzhou. Including Cao Cao,
He also hopes that there will be no Taiyuan uprising in Guanzhong for the time being, so as not to affect his strategy of pacifying the Yuan family in Hebei.
Bu Zhao and Xia Houlan followed him across the river.
They originally arrived with the immigrants, but since Cao Peng personally greeted them, they naturally came to visit them.
Bu Zhi and Cao Peng have not been seen for four years.
Xia Houlan also hadn't seen Cao Peng for more than half a year and was particularly worried about him.
There were many people who came with Synchro and others. Some were familiar and some were unfamiliar, which made Cao Peng extremely happy.
Those who came to Hexi this time included Xu Shu, who worked in Qiandong County, Meng Jian, one of the four friends of Shuijing Villa, and Pang Tong's brother Pang Lin... a total of more than ten people. Among them, the one who surprised Cao Peng the most was Jia Xing.
That is, Jia Xu's adopted son.
Unlike everyone else, Jia Xing held an official position and was a Cao of Hexi County.
"Hexi County?"
Cao Peng couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Since the Han Dynasty, there has been no place like Hexi County. Could it be that...
Zhang Ji explained: "General Sikong will report to the imperial court and establish Hexi County. Youxue will be the first governor of Hexi County. However, the specific affairs will not be finalized until Youxue controls Hexi and reports to Sikong Mansion.
However, Shizhong Xun has registered Hexi County in Shangshu Mansion and is only waiting for good news from you."
Just like that, became a prefect?
Although the Beizhong Lang general and the prefect are both of the same rank.
But in terms of power, there is still a huge difference. Beizhonglang general has a military position, while the prefect, during the Three Kingdoms period, mostly integrated military and political affairs. Cao Peng originally held a military position, and now he has the position of a prefect.
That is to say, in the Hexi area, his family was the only one without any restraint. This also shows Cao Cao's trust in Cao Peng.
"Yuan Zhi came here also in the name of his uncle and grandson to assist you in learning."
Cao Peng and Xu Shu had known each other three years ago, so they were no strangers to each other.
At first, Cao Peng contacted Xu Shu, who was studying at Shuijing Villa through Xu Shu's mother. Later, Xu Shu and Shi Tao came to Xudu together. However, the choices of the two people at that time were different. Xu Shu chose to assist Deng Ji.
He governed Yanjin. Soon afterwards, he was favored by Man Chong, the then governor of Dongjun, and took up a post in Dongjun.
In contrast, Shi Tao has always stayed in Xudu.
It was not until the beginning of the eighth year of Jian'an that Cao Peng proposed to Cao Cao and took up the post of Lintao Order.
It is difficult to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages of the two. One has always been an auxiliary official and has a very high status; the other chose to work hard and become the chief official of a county, taking charge of his own role. Each has his own talents, but the methods are different.
Xu Shu was in his early thirties, gentle and elegant.
He seems to be quite quiet, but after more contact, you can feel his arrogance coming from the bottom of his heart...
"Yuan Zhi is here, I can let him go."
Cao Peng was also very happy. Before, he had a headache and no one could help him, but now he had many assistants.
"Now that my son Shan Yuan has arrived, and there are public prestige and scholar monuments, there is no doubt that Hexi will be settled."
Bu Zhi and others all stood up and showed humility.
Meng Gongwei, Meng Jian, and Pang Lin were also very happy.
Judging from Cao Peng's attitude towards them, he was very respectful. This also shows that in the future in Hexi, there will be a relatively stable environment to display his talents. As for Jia Xing, he was silent and smiled on the sidelines.
"Ziyou, you are all here, what should you do at home?"
Cao Peng thought of one more thing, that is, people like Xiahou Lan and Hao Zhao were extremely important figures in Cao Ji's hands.
When they come here, doesn't it mean that Cao Ji has no one to use?
"Oh, sir, please don't worry."
Bu Zha chuckled and said, "Although Ziyou came here, he didn't have much influence on Cao Fengche.
Today, Cao Bin has taken up the post of Commander-in-Chief of the City Gate Command, and your sixth brother Cao Zun has been invited by the Marquis of Che to take up the post of Chief Registrar. As for the positions left vacant by Bo Dao and the others, there are many
Brother Jin took over, and Brother Cao Tai also served under Marquis Fengche. In my opinion, no one can shake the position of Marquis Fengche as the city gate captain."
Cao Zun became the chief registrar of the city gate school?
This was indeed beyond Cao Peng's expectation.
Cao Zun was in poor health, so he returned to Xudu to raise him.
Unexpectedly, my father was so smart that he invited Cao Zun over.
Cao Zun and Cao Peng were sworn brothers, and when they saw Cao Ji, they would treat him as uncle. He had previously served Zhong Yao in Chang'an, and was highly regarded by Zhong Yao. Now that Zhong Yao has returned to Xudu, he will definitely be the minister.
Give Cao Zun some care and attention.
As for Cao Bin, let alone that.
Cao Zhen's brothers were previously Cao Cao's followers.
The presence of these two people has basically guaranteed Cao Ji's position as the city gate captain, and few people can shake him.
Plus Cao Tai...
Cao Tai is the eldest son of Cao Ren and is also a descendant of Cao.
In other words, the entire Xudu is now firmly under the control of the Cao clan.
Of course, there are many reasons why Cao Tai came to serve under Cao Ji. For example, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan, a general named Cao, had many business contacts with Cao Peng. The nine major guilds in Haixi all have their traces, so
As soon as they came together, an implicit interest group was formed. However, the premise is that this group must be loyal to Cao Cao.
"If Brother Six is here, it will indeed save a lot of trouble."
"Not only that, Kan Derun transferred Feng Chao and Chu Ge from Haixi to Dongjun, and they are now considered to be highly promoted.
As for Deng Zhi, because Yuan Zhi left, he was invited by his uncle and grandson to serve as the administrator of Dongjun.
Basically, you don't have to worry too much about family affairs in Zhongyuan. Everything is normal. Uncle Sun also said that he wants to compete with you... Haha, within five years, let's see who can control the two of you brothers.
Take better care of it.”
Deng Zhi finally returned to Deng Ji.
However, after going through some trials and tribulations, neither Deng Ji nor Deng Zhi were the fledglings they once were.
Especially Deng Ji, who went from Jiyang to Xudu, from Xudu to Haixi, and from Haixi to Yanjin, has now become the prefect of Yishang County in Dongjun. The things he experienced and the hardships he encountered during this period made him
Become extremely mature.
In this way, Cao Peng can really feel relieved!
After everyone gets together, it is natural to have a banquet.
No matter what Zhang Ji said, as a half-landowner, he achieved the top position.
He and Cao Peng are both prefects of the same county, but in terms of rank, Zhang Ji is higher than Cao Peng. Anding County belongs to Zhongjun and is in the land of three auxiliaries. Even if Hexi is officially a county, due to its geographical location and population
Various factors can only lead to one lower county. The difference in salary between the lower county prefect and the middle county prefect is ten dendrobium per month. But the problem is that Cao Peng also serves as Beizhonglang General, supervising the military in addition to the three assistants.
, which makes Cao Peng's status higher than Zhang Ji.
"Prefect Zhang, do you know Han Sui?"
During the banquet, Cao Peng suddenly asked.
Zhang Ji was also stunned!
This Han Sui was the governor of Jincheng County and was also under the rule of Liangzhou.
But speaking of it, there was no dispute between Han Sui and Cao Peng.
After all, Jincheng County and Hexi are far apart... However, Zhang Ji is no ordinary person after all. After a moment of confusion, he understood the meaning of Cao Peng's words. The relationship between Han Sui and Ma Teng,
Extremely close.
Zhang couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Although Cao Peng was a famous scholar in the Central Plains, he seemed to be a warlike person.
The conflict between him and Ma Teng could not be eased at all. All Zhang Ji could do was to try to make them live in peace.
But one day, conflict will break out between Cao and Ma.
The reason why Cao Peng asked Han Sui was because he had other ideas.
"Han Sui is an extremely changeable and resourceful person.
He has eight generals under his command, and his son-in-law Yan Xing is also a very capable man. I will try my best to make Wen Yue and You Xue get along well with each other."
The implication of this is to tell Cao Peng: If you and Ma Teng really get involved, I will find a way to restrain Han Sui and not participate in it.
Cao Peng suddenly laughed!
"So, please, Brother De Rong, please put more thought into it."
"We are both working for the imperial court, so why should we invite you or not? However, I still say the same thing, try not to have any conflicts with Ma Teng. Ma Shoucheng has been running Xiliang for nearly 20 years.
The prestige is not low.
Once a conflict occurs..."
Zhang Ji had just finished speaking when he suddenly heard a commotion outside the big tent.
Immediately afterwards, Niu Gang was seen entering the tent with a scout, "Sir, Fengmingtan, the latest battle report has arrived." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to ***(
