Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 285: Reward

"My lord, this is Hanoi Sima, Sima Fang. This time, our army was able to successfully capture Hanoi, thanks to Sima's defection. In addition, Sima has handed over all his land and servants." After Xu Rong waited for Lu Bu and Hua Xiong to talk about the past, Seeing that Sima Fang was left aside in the cold, Lu Bu didn't bother to respond. Although he was a little unclear, he couldn't just leave him here, so he introduced him to Lu Bu immediately.

"Sima Jiangong." Lu Bu glanced at Sima Fang, and could clearly feel the person's repulsion and disgust towards him, and the expressionless expression on his face was really not fake.

"I've met Marquis Wen." Sima Fang saluted Lu Bu.

Lv Bu nodded: "Duke Jiang has a high reputation, would you like to take up the position of Situ? There is no salary for the time being, and the salary will start in three years."

In the past, there was no salary because the imperial court had no money. Now that the imperial court has money, it would be too much not to pay a salary. New recruits are limited to three years, and the salary will be given after three years. However, natural disasters have been frequent in recent years, and usually the Sangong cannot be held for three years.

According to Dahan's practice, once a natural disaster occurs, one or two Sangongs have to be dismissed, and if they are dismissed, they will have to recalculate.

Another one, Lu Bu will definitely be promoted to the third prince this time when he returns to the court. Now that the generals Gao Shun, Xu Rong, and Zhang Liao are all going to become the generals of the frontier, Lu Bu's position of Jiuqing is not enough. After this, it is reasonable to be promoted to the third prince. It is enough to match Sangong's merits.

Sima Fang obviously didn't understand the real situation, but he was unwilling to ask him to serve Lu Bu, so he bowed slightly to Lu Bu and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm old, I'm afraid..."

"Then let's go back." Lu Bu waved his hand.

Obviously he didn't want to see himself, seeing that he had a good reputation, let him be a third man, but if he didn't want to, Lu Bu wouldn't beg someone to do it, at worst, he would bring up the third man who was deposed because of the celestial phenomena and do it again.

Sima Fang was a little embarrassed. Even though he made up his mind not to assist Lu Bu, he still couldn't accept Lu Bu's attitude.

"There's more." Seemingly remembering something, Lu Bu looked at Sima Fang and said, "It shouldn't be Jiangong's idea to voluntarily surrender to Bosheng. If he wants to become an official, he can come to Chang'an directly."

Sima Fang looked at Lu Bu in astonishment, but he didn't say anything. Is this Lu Bu a god? At the moment, he looked at Lu Bu with some dissatisfaction: "How can Marquis Wen determine that the old man did not do it?"

"Bu didn't mean to despise Duke Jiang, but since he saw me, Duke Jiang doesn't seem to be someone who would take the initiative to surrender to me, no matter his demeanor or words." Lu Bu glanced at him and explained casually.

Displeasure and repulsion were already written all over his face. Even if Lu Bu didn't have god-level perception and could perceive people's emotions, it would be hard not to know.

As people get older, their skills may not necessarily improve, but the temper of relying on the old and selling the old is self-taught.

With that kind of disdain and comfort in his bones, even with Lu Bu's current disposition, he couldn't help but want to go up and kick him twice.

Sima Fang made fun of himself, gave Lu Bu a slight salute, and left. Anyway, he didn't point at Lu Bu for anything.

But after Sima Yi heard about it, he almost vomited blood.

"Why doesn't father want it!?" Sima Yi looked at Sima Fang in astonishment, "San Gong, although he is not directly related to Lu Bu, at least he can be closer to Lu Bu."

"My Sima family has been loyal and good for generations, how can I stoop to be a thief?" Sima Fang snorted coldly, "Could it be that without him, Lu Bu, I can't live?"

"I can live." Sima Yi said helplessly: "But the cultivated land and tenant farmers have been handed over. Without the protection of the court, I am afraid it will be difficult to be as usual."

Sima Yi and other Lu Bu summoned these days to carefully study the lives of Guanzhong scholars. Those who are willing to serve the court, although the court often defaults on or does not pay their salaries, will compensate them in other ways, such as the concession of commercial taxes. I just want to accumulate some background through this road.

Even if you don't manage it yourself, you can use this policy as an excuse to hang a few caravans under your own name, at least you can guarantee that you don't have to worry about food and clothing. If you can build a caravan yourself, the annual income will not be much worse than farming .

But these prerequisites are that someone in the family will work for the court. If not, the Sima family can only sit and eat.

If Sima Fang can be ranked among the three lords, there will be a lot of tax reductions and exemptions. As long as he is diligent, it will not be much worse than the land property his family had before.

But Sima Fang pushed away the things he got, which made Sima Yi have the urge to vomit blood.

"That's enough, I, Sima, can't be moved by wealth!" Sima Fang snorted coldly.

He didn't say anything about Lu Bu wanting Sima Yi to become an official, so he took Sima Yi back to Hanoi directly.

Sima Yi had no choice but to follow his father back to farm the land. Although the land was donated, for this kind of land, Lu Bu actually just deprived him of the right to own it.

So it's not difficult to live on. The reason why many people can't accept it is just because they can't live the extravagant life of the past, or the living standard has declined.

The Sima family still kept their wealth, plus they farmed by themselves, and if they didn't become officials, they could still live a prosperous life within three generations, but they would not be so good after three generations.

Naturally, Lu Bu didn't know about Sima Yi's entanglement. After meeting Xu Rong and Hua Xiong, he called Wei Xu, Wei Yue, and Cheng Lian. Naturally, the three of them also received rewards this time, but they didn't need to go back to the court to formally award them. Here, the three were promoted to official positions, and some more were given to them last time, promising that the three would be replaced after a while, so that they could go back and rest for a while.

After staying in Luoyang like this for more than a month, until the cold winter passed, when the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming, Lu Bu brought everyone all the way back to Chang'an.

After more than three years, when I returned to Chang'an, it was still the same city, but it seemed to be a little different again.

When Lu Bu returned to the court, the first thing he did was to visit the emperor.

"Marquis Wen, thank you for your hard work." Liu Xie is no longer the naive boy of the past, and has a bit of imperial majesty. Seeing Lu Bu returning to the court, he smiled and let Lu Bu join the ranks: "This time, we will first pacify Bashu, then break through southern borders, and then retreat to the princes." The coalition army, Marquis Wen is brave, comparable to Xiang Ji in the past!"

"Thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, this time I was lucky enough to retreat from the rebellious army of the princes and soldiers. I dare not be greedy for credit." Lu Bu said to Liu Xiesu.

"That's natural, but if Marquis Wen hadn't planned a strategy, how could there be such a big victory!" Liu Xie shook his head and laughed.

After so many years, he can see it. As long as Lu Bu doesn't want his life, he doesn't want to fight any more. If he can't fight, he still makes himself trembling in the end. This time Lu Bu sent troops, in fact, someone wanted to persuade Liu Xie to do it. , but was rejected by Liu Xie.

Liu Xie actually recognized Lu Bu's ideas, and as he grew older and more knowledgeable, Liu Xie asked himself, even if he was allowed to take charge, he would not be able to achieve Lu Bu's level. Isn't it all right? Why bother with wind and rain?

This time Lu Bu was able to conquer smoothly, and there was no trouble in the rear. Of course, it was because of Lu Bu's popularity in Guanzhong, but it was also the reason why Liu Xie refused to cooperate with some people.

Without Liu Xie, the emperor's support, those who want to make trouble have lost the most basic righteousness in their hands, and they are in Lu Bu's core territory, how can they do it?

"Your Majesty, I think that with the merits of Marquis Wen, I have been subjugated to the position of Jiuqing. It is inevitable that people will think that I am a big man who doesn't know how to employ people. I think that with Marquis Wen's achievements today, he is enough to rank among the three princes!" He saluted Liu Xie.

Liu Xie nodded and said: "Exactly, Marquis Wen, I have discussed this matter with the ministers before, not to mention the great impact on the imperial court, Marquis Wen's achievements over the years are no longer enough for mere Weiwei, I would like to pay homage to Marquis Wen I wonder if Marquis Wen is willing to take up the post of Taiwei?"

"Your Majesty, I am afraid that my virtue will not be enough to convince the public!" Lu Bu shook his head. He was promoted to Sangong when he came back, but he couldn't just accept the letter from the emperor. This made him seem too impatient, and secondly, it seemed a bit cheap.

"This..." Liu Xie hesitated when he heard this.

Lv Bu laughed and said, "Your Majesty, I think that it is the officers and men who are able to pacify the middle of Shu and retreat the feudal lords this time. I think that the first thing to do is to reward the meritorious officers and men. As for the minister, there is no hurry!"

Liu Xie probably knew what Lu Bu meant, and nodded slightly: "Okay, then I will discuss this matter with the officials again."

The next step is to discuss the matter of rewards. Xu Rong, Gao Shun, and Zhang Liao are not only the group with the highest meritorious service in this battle, but they will also be the only generals in the future. The town of Bashu.

Gao Shun was the general of Zhendong, stationed in Nanyang.

Xu Rong is the general of Zhenbei, stationed in the Heluo area.

In addition to these three, Hua Xiong, Ma Chao, Wei Yan, Pang De, and Xu Huang were all miscellaneous generals. Pang De is the general who seeks thieves, and Pang De is the general who breaks the captives.

Under these five were Gan Ning, Zhang Ren, Deng Yu, Gao Lan, Wei Xu, Wei Yue, Cheng Lian and other generals who had contributed in this battle, all of whom were named school lieutenants.

In addition, Zhang Hu, Gao Yi, Hua An, and Dian Man also officially joined the official ranks, but they were all young generals who served as county magistrates or small military schools in various places, but failed to take on major responsibilities.

Under Lu Bu's suggestion, the imperial court took out a large amount of supplies to reward the soldiers in this battle. Although they could not be promoted, the rewards were enough.

After these matters were settled, Liu Xie once again worshiped Lu Bu as Taiwei. After some evasions, Lu Bu finally accepted the promotion.

After all, up to now, it is unreasonable for Lu Bu to continue to stay in the position of Jiuqing.

In addition to Lu Bu being promoted to Taiwei, Xun You also recommended the position of Situ to Zhong Yao. Although he is not directly related to Lu Bu, Zhong Yao's attitude towards Lu Bu has gradually changed in recent years. Salary.
