The sad news from Xuxian is that Chen Yu died of illness, and the good news from Luoyang is that the reward from the court to Xun Zhen for pacifying Wei County has finally come down.

Before Chen Zhi left home and came to Jizhou, she made a special trip back to her mother's house to say goodbye to Chen Yu. At that time, Chen Yu was still in good health, but after being apart for more than two years, he became ill and passed away.

According to the Chen clan who came to report the sad news from Xu County, Chen Yu died on Bingwu last month at the age of eighty-three. This is a longevity, and it can be considered a happy death.

Chen Yu was well-known in the world. After the news of his death came out, thousands of people came from Yuzhou alone. The Chen clan who came to report the news heard that the general He Jin had also sent an envoy to pay his respects.

Chen Zhi cried into tears. She lost her parents when she was young, and her relationship with Chen Yu was so deep that she cried several times and fainted.

Xun Zhen also sighed in grief.

He asked the Chen family member who came to report the news: "Chen Gong is famous all over the world, and there are many people going to hang. Can the nobles have enough staff and everything ready?"

"The parents of Jun's family came to my house in person, Liulong and other gentlemen also went to my house, Wen Ruo and other Jun's children and Le Wenqian and other old officials of Jun also all came, Wen Ruo, Wen Qian and others also invited the county government to send them. With the help of the people, and the help of Du Lai's family, the Bixian Temple and the prefecture, everything can be done in an orderly manner."

"Chen Gong hopes all over the world, now that he is dead, he should set up an inscription to set an example for future generations. I don't know who you want to ask for the inscription?"

"Chen Liu Cai Bozhao and my family are old friends. My family has sent people to Wu to report this sad news. My family's young master wants to ask him to write an inscription."

Cai Yong is good at writing and calligraphy. He wrote the stele standing outside the Taixuemen Zhengding the text of the Six Classics. In the early years, because he looked down on the **** Wang Fu's younger brother, he was unwilling to respond to Wang Fu's younger brother's whirl dance at the banquet, which made Wang Fu's younger brother feel humiliated and furious. Jiangnan, now the area of ​​Wu County.

Xun Zhen nodded and said, "Only Cai Yilang's writings and books are worthy of writing an inscription for Chen Gong."

Chen Zhi is the granddaughter of Chen Yu, and she should be filial piety for Chen Yu for one year. Xun Zhen wanted to kill the Zhao family, so she planned to send Chen Zhi's daughters home before she started, but she could take this opportunity to let her go back with Chi's maidservant and Tang'er.

Seeing that Chen Zhi was too sad, Xun Zhen did not send someone to **** her home immediately, but stopped going to court for a few days. , only selected two hundred brave and righteous servants, and ordered her to **** her home. In the name of worrying that Chen Zhi would go back alone, she also called Tang Er and Chi Mai to accompany her back.

Although Tang Er and Chi Mai were reluctant to part, they were not worried about Chen Zhi because they accepted Xun Zhen's arrangement.

The people from the Chen family who came to report the news also returned home with them.

Xun Zhen sent Chen Zhi's daughters out of Ye County and watched them go away until they could no longer see the cars of their group before returning to the county.

When the county officials and people heard that Chen Yu had passed away, many people came to the county government to express their grief and condolences to Xun Zhen.

Chen Hao is eighty-three years old this year. He is from the same generation as Xun Shu and Zhong Hao. He is the only one who survives in their generation of famous scholars. Jizhou scholars all know their high reputation and value their conduct. In the few days after the Chen family came to Wei County, many scholars from Wei County set off to Xu County to hang themselves, and there were more than a dozen people who went to Xu County with Chen Zhi and the others.

It can be said that the cars of Jizhou scholars who rushed to Xuxian to hang are in an endless stream, and they meet each other.

As a grandson-in-law, Xun Zhen did not have to resign from office and serve filial piety, but he also had to express his grief.

Stopping the dynasty is one of them, and eating vegetarian food, wearing coarse clothes, and not drinking alcohol is one of them.

He grieved, and the officials of the county government had to mourn as well. In the midst of the grief up and down the county government, the edict from Luoyang arrived.

Along with the edict came a letter from He Yong.

The imperial edict recorded Xun Zhen's merits before and after, and worshipped him as Marquis of Yingyin, and ate 5,000 households.

Marquis of Yingyin and Xun Zhen were worshipped as county marquis.

In general, the princes of the Han Dynasty were divided into counties, townships, and pavilions, and the county, township, and pavilion were the food towns.

Specific to the county, it is divided into several grades. The first-class county is a small county, the second-class county is a large county, the third-class county is a small county, and there is another type of county. The large county was sealed, but due to insufficient credit, it was impossible to eat all the households in the county. Instead, the imperial court set aside some households to provide them with "food and clothing rent tax", thinking that it was a food town, and the edict stipulated that Xunzhen "food Five thousand households" is such a kind.

Yingyin is a large county with a population of tens of thousands at its peak. Now, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, although the population has decreased, it is still a large county. From this dynasty to now, there are two people who have been able to seal Yingyin as a food town. One is from Liang Ji. From the son of Liangma, one is Princess Yingyin, the daughter of the late emperor. She is either a relative or a princess. Xun Zhen and them are obviously incomparable, so they do not have the treatment of eating the whole county, but even if they only eat five thousand households, it is not low. And the fief is his hometown, which is a special preference.

Xun Zhen couldn't believe that the imperial court would be so generous to him. She suspected that she had heard it wrong. After reading He Yong's letter, she realized that he was really lucky to be worshipped as the Marquis of Yingyin. Yuan Shao, He Yong and others fought hard for him. the result of.

Just like what Xun You said to Xun Zhen before: Xun Zhen attacked the yellow turban from Huangfu Song, and the merit was high; for Lieutenant Zhao, he stabilized Zhao County and repelled Zhang Feiyan, the merit was great; The Poison Rebellion was so powerful that the imperial court could no longer reward him.

But how to seal the reward has a rhetoric.

Zhang Rang used Xun Zhen to attack the Yellow Turban first and restore Zhao Wei, and promoted the Tianwei of the Han family in the name, and suggested that today Zizhao worship him as the Marquis of Xuanwei.

The Marquis of Xuanwei sounds very majestic, Xuanwei is also a county, and the name of the marquis is so majestic, it seems to be a good suggestion.

But the problem is that this prince of Xunzhen is not a titled prince, but a fiefdom prince. The name prince pays attention to the meaning of the name of the prince. For example, Ban Gu manages the Western Regions and promotes the country’s prestige outside the country. Therefore, he has to be named Dingyuanhou, but the fief is not particular about it. Among these, the feudal lords pay attention to Fengyi, Meixian County, because this is related to the economic income of the people who are feudal lords.

Xuanwei belongs to Wuwei County, Liangzhou. It is located in the frontier. Three counties to the west are the Western Regions. It is surrounded by deserts. the difference.

From ZTE up to now, there are only three people who have been sealed in Liangzhou, and the land that these three people have sealed is not a remote and barren land like Xuanwei.

Yuan Shao and others fought for Xunzhen's reason, and in the end, "in the first year of Jianwu, he was awarded the hero, and all the generals occupied Meixian County, Fengyi. "The people of Yingyin, who first attacked the Yellow Turbans, restored the security of Zhao and Wei, made great contributions to the army, pacified the area, and made great contributions to the country, why not seal it in Yingyin, to compare the beauty of the ancestors, to show the court's superior benevolence" and moved today's son, In the end, Xun Zhen was appointed Marquis of Yingyin.

Ding Chen and Ji Zun were both from Yingchuan, and Ding Chen was from Xin'an Township, Dingling. Zun is one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, a native of Yingyang, and was awarded the title of Marquis of Yingyang in the second year of Jianwu. Both of them were from the same county of Xun Zhen, and both had to seal their hometowns as food towns. Yuan Shao and others took this as an example, and used the rhetoric of "Bimei Shizu" to persuade today's son.

All in all, Xun Zhen was grateful to Yuan Shao, He Yong and others for being able to seal his hometown as a food town.

Xun Zhenxiu wrote a letter thanking Yuan Shao, He Yong and others for their help, and wrote a letter to the clan to inform the clan of the matter.

Most of the Xun clan were Confucian scholars who knew books and abides by rituals, and had Xun Qu to look after him at home, but Xun Zhen was not worried that the clan would take advantage of his power to dominate the county.

The Han Dynasty emphasized military merit. Generally speaking, non-military merits cannot be awarded as a marquis. The title of marquis can be said to be the highest pursuit of honor by famous officials and patriots in the Han Dynasty. The joy of the clansmen such as Qian and Xun Qu.

Being named a marquis is not only an honor, not only can you be matched with a gold seal and a purple ribbon, but you will also get a large amount of income economically.

According to the quantity and output of the land owned by the fiefdoms, that is, the actual income of the fiefdoms within the fiefdom, the land tax is levied at a rate of 30% and 1%, which is called "rental". The closed households paid various taxes to the county and temple, and the calculation and oral taxes were retained by the state, while the land tax was transferred to the private ownership of the Hou. The richer the fief and the more closed households, the higher the income of Hou.

Xun Zhen was born and lived in Yingyin in this lifetime, and he knew very well the income of Yingyin County residents. From the five thousand households entrusted to him, he could get at least hundreds of thousands of dollars every year, and as many as one million.

Xunzhen's current rank is "shou two thousand stone", the salary of the officials of this dynasty is "half money and half grain" when it is distributed, two thousand stone can be paid 6,000 and 60 meters per month. The stone is lower than this, that is to say, even if he becomes a regular next year, his annual salary will only be more than 70,000 yuan and more than 700 stone. Of course, rice is expensive in chaos now, and more than 700 stone. If the equivalent of money is far more than 70,000, but even so, the amount of money he gets from the fief a year is enough to be comparable to the salary for several years.

Of course, having said that, Xun Zhen is now "rich". He has seized a lot of money from the Yellow Turbans and the Montenegrin Army. He does not care much about the income of hundreds of thousands of food towns in this area. What if you have a fief, you may not be able to get the money, but then again, after all, you have to be named a marquis, which is the highest among the twenty marquis, and it will help his reputation.

Hours of more than a thousand households in Shiyi can appoint two retainers, one for the family chief and one for the concubine.

These two ministers are the main servants and take care of family affairs.

This is the legacy of the pre-Qin period. During the Warring States Period, Gan Luo was the concubine of Marquis Wenxin. Because of his young age, he was only twelve at the time, so he was called the young concubine.

Family chief, Xun Zhen doesn't have a suitable candidate right now.

Xun You can do it, but using Xun You as the chief of the family is overkill and wasteful of the position of "family chief". To make an inappropriate analogy, a family chief is like a housekeeper, a position that can be used to win over people and show credibility. As for Xun You, Xun Zhen didn't need to win over, and there was no other suitable candidate. This position could be temporarily vacant, until someone who was worthy of being courted would be appointed.

Shuzi, Xun Zhen has three candidates.

One Xu Fu, one Xu Ji, and one civil servant.

If you use Xu Ji, you can further strengthen the relationship with Xu Zhong.

If Xu Fu or Wenpin is used, it can show the importance and love for both of them.

After consideration, Xun Zhen decided to remove Xu Fu from the post.

The relationship between Xu Zhong, Xu Ji brothers and Xun Zhen is very stable and does not need to be further strengthened at present.

Wen Pin was a disciple of Xun Qu, and he had known Xun Zhen for a long time. After he came to join Xun Zhen, Xun Zhen also used him very much. First, he gave him a military post as a righteous servant, and then he gave him hundreds of righteous servants. , ordered him to clear up the group of thieves in the north of the county. This job is very much in line with the meaning of civil employment. He worked very hard. For the time being, there is no need to "coach" him further.

Since Xu Fu came to Jizhou, he spent most of his time studying politics and military affairs. Now he seems to be able to further promote him, showing that he attaches great importance to him.

Xu Fu was not in the county now, and was collecting fu, money, and fu at the inspector's place in other counties. Xun Zhen wrote a book, stamped it with the freshly-baked Marquis of Yingyin seal, and ordered someone to send it to him. Thanks to the court, and reported the use of Xu Fu as a concubine.

Xu Fu had heard that Xun Zhen had been granted the title of Marquis of Yingyin, and was just about to discuss with Cen Rong whether to suspend the inspector and return to the prefecture to pay tribute to Xun Zhen.

He unfolded it, and in addition to being pleasantly surprised, he was deeply moved by Xun Zhen's deep affection for him.

Xun Zhen cited Gan Luo's example in the book of excision, saying: "Gan Luo was the young son of the Marquis of Wenxin in the twelfth year of the year. When I and I met in Yangzhai in the past, I was only ten years old. I have to seal Yingyin, and I want to use the minister as a concubine, so that I can remember the encounters in the past years, can I?"

Xun Zhen ranked 2,000 stone, and now he is the Marquis of Yingyin. He has such deep affection for Xu Fu, a young man who is not yet weak. Except for the words in the book, he does not forget the old things~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is full of true feelings .

Xu Fu was so moved that his eyes were red and tears almost fell.

Holding the removal book, he fell to the ground, kowtowed in the direction of the county house, and wanted to thank him, so choked up that he was speechless.

Cen Rong and Xu Ji helped him up.

Xu Ji is a kind and honest person, only happy for Xu Fu, not very jealous.

Cen Yan sighed: "Nang and Nang were in Zhao County in the past, Du Mai and Fan's brothers voted for the lord of the government. Sincerely, the Lord of benevolence and righteousness."

In the original history, Xu Fu later changed his name to Xu Shu, and tasted a love affair with Liu Bei. Last year in Zhao County, he rescued Liu Bei once, and now he has been appointed as the son of Xun Zhen, but these two coincidences can be passed down as a good story, but Only Xun Zhen knows these two stories.

...

Zhao family in Ye County.

Zhao Ran has always felt a little uneasy these days, but after thinking about it, he couldn't find the reason. He just felt that something was wrong.

He thought to himself and said, "Is it because the child of Yuzhou has to be named a marquis, so I feel uneasy?... There is no need for that. What can a little Marquis of Yingyin do?" Even so, he still felt that something was wrong, and ordered his servants, "Go and call Li Hu."

1. Chen Yu.

"Book of the Later Han Dynasty" records that Chen Yu's death was in the fourth year of Zhongping. Today, there is a stele of Chen Taiqiu written by Cai Yong in the stele gallery of Guandi Temple in Xuchang. , Bingwu in August, died of illness." The inscription written by Cai Yong to Chen Yu is not wrong, and the "Han Han Shu" should be wrong.
