The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Vol 3 Chapter 30: homecoming

When returning home this time, Xun Zhen did not intend to take Tang Er. Yin Xiu gave him five days to rest, one day to go back, and four days to stay at home. Although Yang Zhai was not too far from Yingyin, for a woman like Tang Er, she would be exhausted, so it would be better to keep her in the house.

He told Tang Er what he planned to do.

Tang Er had made him gentle last night, and was satisfied and happy. Seeing him considerate herself again, she was even more happy and agreed. After dinner, Xu Zhong, Xiao Xia and others prepared their mounts, and they all left their homes and returned home. Xuankang and Li Bo sent Xunzhen to the road, and when they were far away, they did not return to the house, and went to the Gong Cao Yuan to remove the books. They were going to move out of the post office as they said last night.

There were already many people on the street, and Xun Zhen and others rode their horses slowly. At the gate of the city, there is a team of officials' chariots opposite.

In the first place were four foot soldiers holding "instant noodles" to clear the way, followed by two chariots, each with a hundred stone literati standing on the chariot and riding on horses. After the chariot passed, it was a black chariot with one side of the barrier painted red, and two cavalry officers carrying halberds were on both sides of the chariot.

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "This is the guard of honor for Qianshi officials and six hundred stone officials. I don't know who they are?"

Although the postal supervisor is only a hundred stone officials, he has a lot of power. Xun Zhen's case this time went to various counties, expelling and killing five officials of six hundred and one thousand stones in one go, which shows his power. It’s not surprising to change the arrogant person to be the post supervisor. When they meet on a narrow road, it’s not surprising that they don’t give way or even fight for the way. It’s just that Xun Zhen has a calm temperament. Xu Zhong, Xiao Xia and others stopped their horses and avoided the side of the road.

After the foot soldiers, the chariots, the chariots, and the cavalry officers passed by, there was a smaller chariot, followed by a green chariot.

When the car passed by, the person in the car just lifted the curtain and looked outside.

Someone in Qingxia said "Huh" and said, "Isn't this Chi maid?"

Xun Zhen turned her gaze from the car in front to the car, and saw a beautiful face with thin eyebrows and cherry lips, eyes like water waves, looking at herself from the car window. Isn't that the late maid? He was stunned for a moment, thinking: "Child maid? ... So it turns out that this is Fei Chang's car, isn't the county chief only six hundred stone? In the small carriage in front of the carriage, Fei Tong should be sitting. Did they just come from Xixiang?"

The car passed by, and the maid Chi was still turning her face to look at him. Xun Zhen rode on the horse, watched her go away, and thought: "When I went back to Xing County, I investigated and punished so many officials and tyrants. For me, I have gained a good reputation. It's like a slap in the face for Chang to say. I've been here in the county for many days, and I haven't seen him yet, so I don't know how he will react to it?"

He guessed right, this team is Fei Chang's team. Fei Chang was in the first coach.

Fei Chang took a rest yesterday and went home. Fei Tong was bored at home, so he insisted on coming to the county with him, saying "I want to see the world again." He had just been appointed county chief, and he also wanted to show off, -- it should be noted that the official system of the two Han dynasties was six hundred stone. At a pass, 600 stone ranks as the next doctor, and from this level onwards, it is a "noble person". Therefore, he returned with Fei Tong and Chi's maid.

Like Maid Chi, he also saw Xun Zhen. Maid Chi didn't know what to think after seeing Xun Zhen, he was gnashing his teeth and thinking: "Xun's family insulted me too much! I went to the county and made me notorious, not to mention that I will return this morning. County, he brought people to show off his power at the gate of the city early in the morning! How unreasonable, how unreasonable. . . . Today I have to go to the master's house to cry again, and I must ask the young master to vent his anger for me!"

He had been to Zhang's house once before, and told Zhang Zhi bad things about Xun Zhen, saying that Xun Zhen was "insulting" him on the surface. Family. Who didn't know that Fei Chang was a guest of Zhang's family? It's up to the owner to beat the dog. Xun Zhen obviously didn't take his Fei Chang's master seriously! After listening to Zhang Zhi, he felt that what he said was reasonable, and was also very annoyed.

Fei Chang said in his heart: "Little Shaojun has already moved, I will push it again today, so I don't worry about this revenge!"

In his eyes, Zhang Rangquan was in charge of the government and the opposition, and the Zhang family in Yingchuan was no one to provoke. As long as Zhang Zhi agreed to take action, Xun Zhen would still be dead?

His plan was settled, and he sneered and thought: "I heard Atong say that when the Xun family was in order in my hometown, he was amiable to my family, and he never bothered my family; After Jun was appointed as the postal supervisor in the north, he also asked the postal supervisor in the south and said, please continue to reduce the monthly payment that my township should send to the postal post in the township as I did when I was there. It's time to find his right and wrong, but he can't live by committing his own sins! Hmph, one after another protests against me, if I don't fight back, the county people will definitely look down on me!  … It hasn't rained for half a month, and the mansion intends to go Song Gaoshan begging for rain, and after I have been to the master's house, I will go to the prefect's mansion. Please let the mansion be anxious to stop his northern postmaster! If it wasn't for the fact that he killed countless people in the north of the county and acted erratically, causing the anger of the sky and the resentment of the people, how could there be no rain for days? ?"

...

Xun Zhen guessed that Fei Chang "will react", and this was Fei Chang's violent reaction. It's just that Xun Zhen didn't know about it yet, so his attention shifted from Fei Chang's motorcade and Chi's maid's scooter to the street.

Maid Chi's bicycle just passed an alley. From this alley came four or five young men with swords, the older one was fourteen or five, and the younger one was twelve or three. They turned to the street and headed for the city gate. They rammed all the way. An old peasant carrying a **** couldn't escape and was knocked to the ground. The teenagers laughed. Pedestrians who passed by looked sideways, no one dared to step forward to drink.

Xun Zhen frowned and asked Xiao Xia, "Do you recognize these youngsters?"

After Xiao Xia came to Yangzhai, she learned some things about the "market heroes", "Lvli heroes" and "evil teenagers" in the county. He replied, "I don't know. The villain goes over and asks."

"They handed over their swords. What kind of sword do teenage children bring? They knocked down the old man and didn't help them, and they laughed! Rough and rude."

"Would you like to send them to the official temple?"

"Forget it, there is a saying in the saying: 'The county officials are long, and half of the wronged are killed'. If the magistrate of Yangzhai knew that they were sent by me, he should not torture them to death? A few teenagers, just reprimand them." Xun Zhen Now in the north of Megatron County, if these youngsters are sent to the temple in Yangzhai County, in all likelihood, the Yangzhai County magistrate will punish them severely.

"Yes." Xiao Xia called a few people and rode over.

There were only a few wicked teenagers left and right, Xun Zhen was not interested to stay and watch, and greeted Xu Zhong and the others, and went out of the city first. In the city gate cave, I heard Xiao Xia's laughter and scolding: "Yo, how dare you draw a sword? Have you ever killed someone before? Do you think you are a brave man with a sword?"

Xun Zhen turned her head to look back, and saw that one of the young men held a scabbard in his left hand, laying it across his chest, and pulled out most of the sword in his right hand.

This young man is the youngest among the young men. He looks like he is only twelve or thirteen. His sword is long and his arms are short. Staring at Xiao Xia and the others who were riding on the horse.

A light man who passed by with Xiao Xia waved his whip, wrapped around the hilt of the sword, pulled the sword lightly, pulled the sword out of the boy's hand, stretched out his arm, grabbed the hilt in mid-air, and shouted to the left, "Sanlang! ." The Qing Xia on his left drew his ring-headed sword out of its sheath, and slashed at the sword, like cutting mud, cutting it into two halves without stagnation. "Bang bang", the severed sword head fell to the ground.

The Qing Xia wielding the whip threw down the remaining half of the sword and said with a smile, "This is also a sword?"

The boy opened his mouth wide in surprise, followed closely, looking at the ring-head knife in "Sanlang"'s hand with envy. "Sanlang" danced twice with the knife in his hand, and put it back into the sheath gracefully.

Most of the people around Xun Zhen also saw this scene. One person smiled and said: "Xunjun, when Saburo asked for the Shen family's Bailian Dao, you shouldn't give it to him. Look at him proud! It's ridiculous to show off like this in front of a group of children." Everyone laughed.

What kind of money can a fourteen-five-year-old boy have? That boy's sword was originally a shoddy and inferior product, and it is not surprising that a treasure made of hundreds of refined steel is broken into ten pieces.

Xun Zhen smiled and continued to look back. Those youngsters were shocked by the whip-wielding Qing Xia and "Sanlang"'s treasured sword, they didn't resist any longer, and handed over their swords honestly. Seeing this, he let go of his heart, stopped watching, turned his head, and the sun was shining brightly, and he had already left the door. Xiao Xia's voice came from a distance, and he vaguely heard him asking: "What are the names of the children? Where do you live? Report them one by one!"

Two or three miles out of the city, Xiao Xia and the others chased after him and gave the captured sword to Xun Zhen.

"You take it."

Xun Zhen reminded these young chivalrous men: "A chivalrous person, be a knight. Helping others is a chivalrous person, and using your strength to force others to be a chivalrous person is also a chivalrous person. Just like those few teenagers, who swagger through the market, go on a rampage, think they are brave, they are knights, but they are actually rogues. That's it. It's just like the third clan, in the fish and meat town, and the lawlessness is rampant. It's not a chivalrous man, but an evil. I know that you are all good men and men. Remember, to be a real chivalrous man, you can't be like those few A young man, let alone bully the people and do illegal things like the third clan. If I know any of you who dare to do such things, the second of the thirteen rules of the other hospital is for him. Wait for it!"

The thirteen rules of the Xixiang Bieyuan are also called "Xunjun's Thirteen Orders" by Qingxia people. The second rule is: "To humiliate the common people, to deceive the good with force, and to slap a hundred people. If you do illegal things, the people in the court will attack them together."

Everyone complied.

There are quite a few of them. It can be said that most of them have done illegal things before they joined Xunzhen's gate, some for revenge, and some for money. Who dares to insult them, and no one dares to enmity with them, and they have no worries about food and clothing, asking for money for money, and for things for things, there is really no need to do illegal things anymore.

After beating the others, Xun Zhen casually asked Xiao Xia, "What are the names of those young men? Where do they live? When we come back, take my name and go to them, visit their chief, and tell him : If he can't take care of his residents, I don't mind taking care of him."

"Yes. . . . Those teenagers are all from the same village. The child who drew the sword at me was called Xu Fu, and the other children were called Xu Lu, Xu Chuan, Lu Yan, Lu Bao, and Chunyu Gong."

"Chunyu Gong? Is it someone who often served Chunyu Deng's family in the old days?" The ball was killed; one was Chunyu Qiong, whose official position is not low now.

"The villain asked, and he said no."

"I saw that little boy named Xu Fu dared to draw his sword in front of your horse. Although he was young, he was not too timid."

A young man made a witty remark: "It's a pity that although he has the guts, his arms are too short to draw out his sword. Xiao Xia, do you call him Xu Fu? The word 'Fu' is not suitable for him, so it's better to change his name to '叕'." which is short. Following Xun Zhen on a trip to Yangcheng, the Qing Xia learned this slang word. Someone laughed: "Ji'er." Someone simply said, "Short."

Xun Zhen couldn't help but smile, and suddenly stopped the smile: "Xu Fu?" Thinking of a person, she thought, "Is it him? Is he from Yangzhai?"

He named the names of two Qing Xia and ordered, "You two go to that kid named Xu Fu now and bring him to meet me."

The two light warriors were at a loss and didn't know what they meant. They responded and turned to leave.

Xun Zhen stopped the two of them again, pondered for a while, and thought: "That boy is only twelve or thirteen years old, and even if he really is that person, he has not yet grown up. A person's success is related to talent, but also to his It is related to the experience and the environment of contact. Jiangnan is orange, Jiangbei is orange. Wenpin's growth trajectory has been changed by me, and it is difficult to say what he will achieve in the future. For this person, we can no longer rashly interfere with his growth. Anyway, he is in Yangzhou. Zhai, you can't escape my sight, why not?" After making a decision, he said to the two light warriors, "After you find him, you don't need to bring him to see me. You two just follow him, and don't let him. Find out, see what he does every day."

The two light warriors looked at each other, what kind of order was this called? One asked, "Watching him every day?"

"right."

"No need to do anything else?"

"Do nothing."

"What if he were today?"

"As long as it's not too much, don't worry about it."

Xun Zhen said: "I remember that the reason why the man changed his name later was because he committed a crime against the law. After breaking the law and changing his name, he just stopped studying. He didn't regret what happened. This murder should be the biggest turning point in his life. "He said to the two young chivalrous men, "Even if he kills and sets fire, don't worry about it, just report it to me in advance."

"Yes."

Xun Zhen ordered Xiao Ren to take out some money and give it to the two young chivalrous men, and said, "You guys can find a way to live near the child's inner and outer areas. Remember, you must take good care of him, and don't lose sight of him. You If the two of you can do this well, it will be a great achievement."

"promise."

Although I don't know Xun Zhen's intentions, Xun Zhen's imperial court has always been clear about rewards and punishments. In the thirteen rules of the Xixiang Bieyuan, there are not only punishments, but also rewards. The rewards for great deeds are very generous. The two light warriors heard him say: If they can do this well, it will be a great achievement, and they will be overjoyed without realizing it.

Many of the rest of the people are jealous, and this is too easy to handle. Who can't watch a child? It's actually worth a lot. Some thought, "Alas, why didn't Xunjun tell me to go?"

...

There are not many people on the official road outside the city, and everyone let go of the speed of their horses and galloped. The sun is getting hot, sweating like rain.

Xun Zhen looked at the wheat fields all the way. From Yangzhai to Yingyin, for dozens of miles, there is no one that is not dry. The fields are cracked and the drought is severe. The little water farmers took from wells and rivers was far from enough to alleviate the disaster. Worried, he arrived outside Yingyin County.

Everyone wanted to send him home.

He refused, saying: "Dozens of horses enter the city, the movement is too loud, and it may disturb the people of the county. Go back to Xixiang." He instructed Xu Zhong, "When you arrive at Xixiang, take Bo Qin, A Deng, and A Bao with you. , Ji Xia and Wen Qian invited me over. I have something to tell them. Also, please call Ayan and Xiaoren back." "Ji Xia" is Jiang Hu's word.

Xu Zhong agreed to say goodbye to Xun Zhen outside the city and took everyone back to Xixiang. Xun Zhen only took Xiao Xia and lightly rode into the city to return home.

...

When they arrived in Gaoyang, they first went to see Xun Yu and believed in Xun Yu.

Xun Wan inquired about his history in Xingxian County in detail, and finally said: "You are still young, although you are the postal supervisor, I depend on the reputation of Xun's family. Don't be arrogant, you must be quick in things and indifferent to words, and cherish feathers."

That night, let him eat at home. His sons Xun Yan, Xun Chen and others sat and accompany him.

After dinner, talk about marriage.

Xun Wan said: "August 13th is a good day. It's not a day of pilgrimage, nor is it a day of anti-branch or **** death. If the hexagram is auspicious, the wedding date will be set on this day, how about it?"

Xun Zhen has no objection: "I will follow the arrangement of the parents."

Speaking of betrothal gifts, in the world of marriage, the "luxury" trend prevails. Not only are rich families extravagant, but poor families are also competing with each other. Even if they have no money, they must have a decent marriage. "Pay for one meal", "break the lifelong career". Xun's Confucian family heirs, Chen's also pursues simplicity, and there is no need to deliberately ask for more betrothal gifts. Xun Wan said: "In addition to the gifts of Xuan, Xuan, sheep, geese, wine, and rice, I have discussed with Xun Qu, and I plan to hire another 50,000 yuan. How about it?" Xun Zhen was now the postal supervisor in the north, and he was also an official, so he had to be hired according to this.

Xun Zhen said the same thing again: "Everything will be arranged by the parents." She wanted to say that the dowry was from him, so she glanced at Xun Wan quietly, and saw from his old face the concentration of worrying about the marriage of the younger generation and the majesty of the head of the clan, I knew that even if I said this sentence, I was afraid that I would not get his permission, so I didn't say it.

The wedding date and dowry were set, and it was late at night.

Xun Wan said, "Just go home. Do your best in the county. You and Wen Ruo will establish the county side by side, both inside and outside the county, and you must be careful in everything. Don't fall into the wrong hands and damage the reputation of my Xun clan." In the eyes of these older generations, who have experienced vicissitudes of life and are well versed in the world, the fame of the clan is more important than everything. Fame is there, and there will be a comeback one day; if fame falls, everything will cease.

Xun Zhen complied with the promise, backed out of the hall, and was sent by Xun Yan, Xun Chen and others, and left Xun Qian's house.

...

He went to Xun Qu's house again and played games with Xun Qu.

In the middle of the game, Xun Qu was boring, he pushed the chessboard with his sleeves and said, "You have reached a thousand miles in one day, and you are not as good as before." This is to say that his chess skills are getting worse and worse.

Xun Zhen apologized ashamed and said, "Since I left home and started an official career, I have almost no leisure time."

Xun Qu said: "You are inherently stupid, your intelligence is not as good as Gongda, and you are not as good as my son, and you often don't practice your hands. Today's chess skills are not as good as that of a three-year-old boy! Don't play chess in the future, so as not to lose my family's name and make people laugh. "

Xun Zhen knelt down and said, "Yes, yes."

"I heard that your name is Zhenbei now, and the people of half the county compose songs for you. You must be very proud of it, right?"

Xun Qu had never discussed business affairs with Xun Zhen, but tonight he suddenly mentioned his trip to the north of the county. Hearing that his tone was wrong, Xun Zhen fell down and did not dare to get up, but Wei Wei said, "No, no."

"No? Did you know that your marriage with the Chen family almost ended because of your trip to the north of the county?"

"what?"

Having said this, Xun Qu changed the subject and asked Xun Zhen, "You traveled from county to Xiangcheng county, and Li Xuan embraced Hui Hui at the county boundary to welcome you, is there such a thing?"

"have."

"You spent the night talking at the Li's house and left the next day. What did you and Li Xuan say?"

"The way of Confucius and Mencius, the study of Huang Lao. Local customs, interesting things in the world."

"It's alright to talk about the world. You're afraid that you're not Li Xuan's rival for Confucius and Mencius." Xun Qu commented on Xun Zhen's talent and learning, then turned to the topic and asked, "Do you know that the Li family and the Changshe Zhong family are related by marriage?"

"I know. Li Ying's aunt is the wife of Zhong Hao's elder brother. She has a son. She married Li Ying sister as his wife."

"Then do you know who married Li Ying's sister to Zhong Jing?"

"I remember hearing Brother A say that it was Yingzu, so Taiwei Li Xiu."

"Do you remember hearing me say it? Then I'll ask you again, do you remember what I said to you at that time? So why did the Grand Commander Li Gong marry Yingmei to Zhong Jing?"

"That's why Taiwei Li Xiu said: 'Zhong Jing is like my family's temperament, the state does not abolish the way, and the state can't be punished without the way', because he married Yingmei to him." Xun Zhen replied to this, probably guessed Why did the Chen family almost cancel the engagement?

Sure enough, I heard Xun Qu say: "Emperor Taiqiu was cautious all his life, Zhang Rang lost his father in Nangri, and no one of the famous people in the county went, only Duke Taiqiu went to express his condolences alone. Why? The whole family. Xu Zijiang of Runan said: 'Taiqiu Dao is wide'. Now you are strong and strong in the north of the county, and there are rivers of blood everywhere. Is this the way to protect the family? Taiqiu Gong's caution, he will be willing Will he marry your grandson again? After hearing that you were expelling the country from the north of the county, and tame with your hands, he quoted the words of the old captain Li Gong, and said to his children and grandchildren: 'The Xun family It is not the way to protect the whole body of the family, and recruiting him as my grandson-in-law may make my daughter-grandson a widow.”

Xun Zhen didn't know how to answer, but she only agreed and said, "Yes, yes. Zhen is wrong. The lord of the government has also taught Zhen, and in the future, Zhen should change the punishment to benevolence, and use courtesy to transform the people." He asked, "Since Duke Taiqiu thinks so, why?"

"Why didn't I cancel the engagement with you? ..., guess what."

Xun Zhen was not familiar with the Chen family, and only talked to Chen Qun. He tentatively guessed: "But because of Chen Qun?"

"Chen Qun? The reason why the Chen family wants to marry you is because of Chen Qun. But it's not because of him that Duke Taiqiu changed his mind."

"that is because?"

"That's why I said Chen's daughter is virtuous! I urge you to come back quickly and marry her."

"Is it because of the Chen family daughter?"

"Chen's daughter said to Duke Taiqiu: 'Zhong Jing may be able to protect the whole body of the family, but he died early and unknown; Li Ying is a role model in the world, although he is dead, he is still alive. The Xun family is fighting the north of the county today, and the people are overthrown. The daughter-in-law heard his brother's words: He was able to teach etiquette when he was in Xixiang, and the villagers praised him when he was freed from prison in the Spring and Autumn Period. This shows that he did not act ruthlessly. Mencius said: People do not have the heart to like and dislike right and wrong, and they are not human. When it comes to the rumors of turbulent officials, tyrants and cruel people, Sun is a woman, and she is also indignant. How about the son of the Xun family is a dignified man? Cruel can still be changed. Moreover, the Xun clan is famous and respected by the world, and has been on good terms with my family for three generations. Now, the eldest father has already promised his daughter and grandson to his family.

"After listening to her, Duke Taiqiu changed his mind. He didn't cancel the engagement with you. -- These are what I heard from Chen/Yuanfang when I went to Chen's house last time."

Xun Zhen was greatly amazed, and said to herself, "Chen's daughter is only fifteen or sixteen, so she has such a vision?"

After thinking about it again, I felt that maybe Chen's daughter has vision, but it may also be because of her age. She was only fifteen or sixteen. She didn't know much about the world, and she could read and write. She should be worshipping heroes and fantasizing. "Hero image", so it is said that "Xun's son is a dignified man".

Both are possible. However, what she said in the last sentence was quite right. Chen Jiaruo canceled the marriage because she had expelled too many filthy officials in the north of the county and killed a Shen Xun. If it was spread out, it would definitely attract criticism from the world. The reason why Chen Hao changed his mind was not because of what Chen Jianu said before, but because of this last sentence.

Xun Qu sighed and said, "Zhenzhi, although Duke Taiqiu did not cancel the engagement with you due to the persuasion of the Chen family's daughter, but what he said was not bad. You can't avoid being strong and strong to gain a good reputation, but it is also a disaster. Dao! How did my concubine father die, have you forgotten? You went to see the parents today, did you find that he was a little older? You killed the corrupt people in the north of the county, and you are right in principle. As a parent, it is not easy for him to stop you; but if you do this, it is very likely that you will kill yourself! Go back and think about it."

"Yes."

Xun Zhen respectfully knelt down and bowed again before exiting the house.

After Xun Qu's father Xun Yu died in prison, the six dragons Xun Shuang died in the rivers and lakes, and his father Xun Tan was dismissed from office and imprisoned, Xun Qu has been depressed and unhappy for so many years. Frustrated, after Xun Zhen left office, he never cared about his business, including when he killed the third clan.

No matter how arrogant the third clan is, it is no more than a country tycoon. If you kill it, you will kill it. If you kill your family, you will be your family. It doesn't matter. But Xun Zhen this time patrolling the north of the county, punishing the evil and eliminating the violence, fighting against the tyrannical, but actually put on a look of not avoiding punishment, which reminded him of his own fathers, and really did not want Xun Zhen to be like them. On the same road of no return. So tonight, uncharacteristically, I taught him a few words.

Xun Zhen knew what he meant, and after leaving the courtyard of his house, walking in the alley, looking at the dark night, she also sighed.

The two party restraints have hurt the hearts of people with lofty ideals in the world to serve the country. He felt warm for Xun Qu's concern, but also felt unworthy of Xun Qu's depression for so many years.

The world is not without talents, this country is not incurable, what is lacking is a wise ruler.

...

The next morning, Xu Zhong, Le Jin, Jiang Qin, Chen Bao, Liu Deng, Jiang Hu, Xiao Ren, Cheng Yan and others came.

Le Jin and Chen Bao had not seen each other for many days, and they were happy and happy after meeting each other.

After the conversation was over, Xun Zhen called them to the side room one by one to talk alone.

First Le Jin, then Xiao Xia. Naturally, the two of them were talking about the iron official, so let them be mentally prepared first. Next was Jiang Hu, who was also talking about Tieguan. As mentioned above, Le Jin and Xiaoxia must go to Tieguan without ears, eyes, and minions. These eyes, eyes, and minions planned to let Jiang Hu take his team of Qingxia. to take charge.

After talking about Tieguan, Xu Zhong and Jiang Qin were called in again.

The two of them talked about buying weapons and armor, buying food, buying slaves, buying land, building a village, as well as developing outward and expanding the geographical scope of recruiting chivalrous warriors and warriors. Of the more than 20 million yuan that was obtained, in addition to keeping 2 million for personal use and 6 million for the daily consumption of Qingxia, the rest were used to buy things and recruit people. This responsibility of managing money is taken by Xu Zhong.

At the end, he smiled and said to Jiang Qin: "The name of 'Chengxi Boqin' is only resounding in Yingyin now. I hope that in the near future, it will be resounding in the south of the county, and it's better to be called 'Junnan Boqin'. '."

...

After discussing the matter, Chen Bao was called in again.

Talked to him about two things. One is the practice of the people in Fanyang Pavilion. Ask about the practice.

Chen Bao replied: "It's like Xunjun's old system, one exercise every three days. It's just that it's been very hot recently, and occasionally someone faints while practicing the standing posture."

"You can't stop when you faint. If you can't stand the tempering of cold and heat, you will end up embarrassed."

One is a matter of peace. Xun Zhen ordered him to pay more attention to the followers of Taiping Taoism in Fanyangting. This "pay more attention" did not mean to be on guard, but to be "kind" to them.

The most followers of Taiping Dao in Fanyangting are in Jinglaoli. When Xun Zhen was in office, she bought mulberry seedlings for Jinglaoli. Chen Bao thought that he was worried that people would go to the government and that they would not be able to take good care of these mulberry seedlings, so he readily agreed.

After talking about these two matters, Xun Zhen asked about the subordinates who were in the pavilion that day, Du Mai, Huang Zhong, and Fan's brothers.

"Lao Du and Xiaofan are still like that. Lao Huang is getting old, and his legs and feet are a little uncomfortable."

"Go back and ask him, if he wants, he can quit Father Ting and come to me."

Chen Bao said with a smile: "Old Huang heard this, and he will definitely say again: 'Xun Jun is kind and considerate of the old man'. His grandson is still young, I don't know that he is reluctant to leave home and go to the county. I will go back. Ask him and see what he means."

After Xun Zhen left Fanyang Pavilion, he always took care of these former subordinates and sent a lot of money to eat. He nodded and said, "If he doesn't want to, you can go to Junqing, give him some money, and let him go home to retire. When you are old, you should enjoy yourself."

...

After talking with Chen Bao, it was Liu Deng in the end.

Talk to Liu Deng for the longest time. After coming out of the room, Xun Zhen's face was as usual, Liu Deng was high in fighting spirit, and he didn't know what Xun Zhen said to him.

...

On this day, Xu Zhong and Le Jin didn't leave~www.wuxiaspot.com~ called Wenpin again in the evening to hold a banquet and drink.

Xun Zhen cooks the dishes in person, and Chen Bao and Cheng Yan help him.

Xu Zhong and Le Jin went out to buy wine together. Xiao Xia and Xiao Ren lit torches and stuck them on the ground in the courtyard. Jiang Qin, Jiang Hu, and Liu Deng set up a table under the tree.
