——

In the early years of the reign of Emperor Guangwu, Princess Huyang, the widow of Emperor Guangwu, fell in love with Song Hong and wanted to marry him. Emperor Guangwu summoned Song Hong and said to him: "It is a proverb that a good deal is more expensive, and a wealthy wife is easy to be loved. ?" To test Song Hong's mind. Song Hong knew what Guangwu meant, and replied, "I have heard that the poor and lowly friends should not be forgotten, and the wife of a scumbag will not go to court." Before Guangwu could clarify his words, he refused him directly.

"The friendship between the poor and the lowly shall not be forgotten, and the wife of the scumbag will never leave the court." Song Hong replied to Guangwu's words that the focus was on "the wife of the scumbag", and it can be said to be the case of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Jian Yong. "Poverty". Not to mention Jian Yong, Liu Guan and Zhang are indeed brothers, and although the three of them are in high positions, the friendship between them has not changed at all. When Liu Bei received a letter, Guan Yu ignored the fatigue of patrolling. , Regardless of the cold weather, he immediately asked for leave to go to Wu'an to see him. Zhang Fei was in military affairs and shouldered the safety of Huang Yicheng. Although he couldn't go to see Liu Bei in person, he also wrote back and ordered someone to send him to Wu'an quickly.

Xun Zhen heard about Guan Yu's resignation from the dust-washing banquet and rushed to Wu'an overnight, and he was full of melancholy, as if he had lost something.

He sighed and said to the left and right: "Yun Chang, a true righteous person."

Compared with the friendship between Liu, Guan, Zhang, especially Liu Bei and Guan Yu, Xun Zhen felt that his attempts to divide Liu Guan and Zhang's various small methods were very unreliable.

Knowing that Guan Yu was begging for leave and galloping to Wu'an to see Liu Bei, Xun Zhen remembered that Liu Bei had also sent him a letter a few days ago, so he asked someone to take it out and start watching.

Liu Bei's letter to him was mainly to express his concern, and suggested that Xun Zhen should strengthen his guard and travel less to avoid accidents. At the end of the letter, he expressed his "fear" of Zhao's family in Ye County, he wrote: " The Zhao clan in Ye County is a powerful family in the country. Zhao Ran lives in Wei, with strong internal and external glue and many minions. Zhao often serves in the court. It will be detrimental to the king. Be prepared to secretly think that it is better for you to write several letters, send them to the capital, and distribute them to the princes of Huangfu, Yuan, and He, for reference."

After Xun Zhen read the letter, he smiled and said, "Xuande is really my younger brother. Heroes see the same thing."

However, he had already written letters to Huangfu Song, Yuan Shao, He Yong, etc., and sent them separately. He also wrote letters to the old Yingchuan Prefect Yīn Xiu, the family father Xun Shuang, and Cao Cāo, and also sent them separately. people sent.

Huangfu Song did not say anything, but only said that Yin Xiu was in the middle of the court, and Xun Zhen was his old official. If Zhao Zhong learned about Li Hu and wanted to clean up Xun Zhen, Yin Xiu could help Xun Zhen talk about it. Although Xun Shuang did not serve as an official in the court, he was well-known at home and abroad, and was highly respected by the court and the public. With his help, at least Wang Yun, Kong Rong, etc. would create some favorable public opinion in the court and the public in favor of Xun Zhen; As for Cao cāo, Cao cāo came from a family of great eunuchs, and his father had a good relationship with the eunuchs.

Xun Zhen's arrest of Li Hu was actually a last resort. Looking at his original intention, he didn't want to tear his face with Zhao so early.

First of all, he is not ready to kill Zhao. Although Cheng Jia has made a breakthrough in Wei Guang, he is still in contact with Wei Guang and has not been able to recruit Wei Guang. Wei Guang is in Zhao's house. He has been a client for many years, and has been greatly used by Zhao Ran. He is well aware of the details and secrets of the Zhao family. If he can be successfully brought under his command, then the matter of killing Zhao can be said to be half done. The violations of the law and discipline of the family's children are only piecemeal, far from being enough to wipe out the entire Zhao clan.

Secondly, Xun Zhen's control over the county government and Ye County has not yet reached the best level. If he hurriedly act, there may be mistakes. Only when he fully brings the county government and Ye County under control, The other half of the matter of killing Zhao was done.

Again, Xun Zhen only took office in Wei County in February this year, and it has been less than a year, and he has not been able to fully show his "ability to govern the people". Although the two Han Dynasties were not far from ancient times, the folk customs were simple and martial, and there were many scholars who possessed both humanities and martial arts, but "knowing the military affairs and being good at riding" is not as good as "governing the country and bringing peace to the world". The impression of the governor of the military affairs is that he really wants to make some achievements as the prefect of Weijun. Now, his "prefect" is only a "trial", and even the one-year probation period is not enough, and he has not yet transferred. To be "true", he really didn't want to attack Zhao at this time.

Xun Zhen didn't want to attack Zhao at this time, but he wasn't sure whether Zhao would attack him because of Li Hu. Although he thought that Zhao Ran might not ask Zhao Zhong for help because of this, but if Zhao would attack him because of Li Hu However, when he asked for help, then there were Huangfu Song, Yinxiu, Yuan Shao, He Yong, Xun Shuang, Cao Cāo and others to help. He secretly estimated: "Maybe they can resolve one or two things for me."

——This is the purpose of his letter to Huangfu Song and others.

Of course, if it can't be resolved, Zhao Zhong said that he would move the emperor and convict him. He couldn't say that, although Xun Zhen didn't want to do it now, he had to do it.

In short, Xun Zhen is now: ready with both hands.

While writing letters to Huangfu Song, Yuan Shao and others, in an attempt to resolve Zhao's anger by taking a multi-pronged approach and give himself some time, he urged Cheng Jia to buy Wei Guang, and hinted that Luan Gu would see if he could force Li Hu. Confess some of the Zhao family's criminal evidence to prepare for the execution of Zhao Zhi.

After reading the letter, Xun Zhen wrote back to Liu Bei and ordered someone to send it to Wu'an.

The messenger left only on the front foot, and the doorman asked to see him on the back foot.

Xun Zhen ordered him to come in.

The doorman entered the hall, bowed down on the ground, and said, "The state engages in Gong Mao's residence and asks to see you outside."

"Gong Mao?"

"Yes."

Gong Mao was a member of the prefecture and Wei county department, and was an official in the prefecture who directly supervised Wei county. Xun Zhen knew this person and knew that this person was in close contact with the Zhao family. If you think about it, you can also guess his intention.

Xun Zhen pondered for a moment, then thought: "Gong Mao must be here for Li Hu's business. I heard that he is close to the Zhao family, and now that I see him, he will intercede for Li Hu, without much trouble, I still don't see him. for good."

Inspectors are like the Disciplinary Inspection Commission of later generations. Gong Mao was in charge of supervising Wei County. Although his rank was low, his power was great. Now the imperial power is gradually declining, and the authority of the prefecture is prosperous. "Obtain the edict, but hang it on the wall." As the object of Gong Mao's supervision, it would be best if there was no direct conflict with Gong Mao, so Xun Zhen decided to simply not see him.

After thinking about it, Xun Zhen said to the doorman, "Didn't I tell you before? No matter who came to ask for a meeting these days, you will block it for me, and say that I am sick and cannot be seen."

Xun Zhen did have such an explanation to this doorman. The reason for this explanation is that Xun Zhen knew that someone would come to intercede for Li Hu, and there were indeed many people who came to see Xun Zhen these days, but these Most of the people are from the powerful families of this county and this county, but they are not comparable to Gong Mao. Gong Mao was engaged by the state department, and was the direct "superior supervisor" of Wei County. The gate official thought that Xun Zhen would give Gong Mao a third of his face and meet him, but unexpectedly Xun Zhen would not even give Gong Mao's face. , and now panicked: "Yes."

The clerk left the hall, returned to the mansion gate, and said apologetically to Gong Mao, who was waiting in the school room, "The manor of the mansion was ill a while ago, and he hasn't recovered yet, so he's not welcome."

Gong Mao was stunned, straightened his body, and said, "Can't see guests when you are sick?"

"Yes."

"I have something important, you can report it again."

"This……."

This clerk, Pinzhi Baishi, is an official of the county government. It stands to reason that the governor is not at this level. The governor is mainly the chief minister of the county and the county magistrate, but today is not as good as before. , as mentioned in the previous article: "The state and county records are like thunderbolts", the power of the state government is very heavy, and the power of the governor of this dynasty has long been heavier than that of the former Han Dynasty. The officials of the Baishi County in Shouzhi County were all among their supervisors. Gong Mao sneered a little and said a few bad things about the door official to the governor, and the future of the door official was over.

Although the clerk did not dare to offend Gong Mao, but he spoke hesitantly, how could Gong Mao not see the mystery in it?

Gong Mao was a staff member of the prefecture of the state and Wei. He braved the cold wind and drove hundreds of miles to come to see Xun Zhen. It was amazing that Xun Zhen didn't see him because of his illness. Mao was not a fool, so he immediately guessed that Xun Zhen refused to see him.

Immediately, he was furious, stood up abruptly, and rushed out of the school room in a hurry, and was about to break into the mansion.

The doorman was startled and hurried to catch up with him. He couldn't take care of him too much at the moment. He hurriedly circled in front of Gong Mao, tried his best to stop him, and said repeatedly: "Gong Jun, calm down! It's sick in bed and can't see guests."

As the saying goes: Fairies fight, little devils suffer.

Gong Mao's anger caused the gatekeeper to suffer. He didn't dare to offend Gong Mao, let alone Xun Zhen, and he was caught in a dilemma.

Gong Mao regarded himself as a valuable person, so of course he wouldn't chat with the guards outside the gate of the county mansion. He fixed his feet and said angrily, "I rode a car for hundreds of miles against the wind and the cold, and made a special trip to meet the ruler of your house. Come, what is the reason for your family lord to refuse me outside the door and refuse to see me!"

"It's not that the lord of the prefecture refuses to see you, but he is sick in bed and cannot see guests."

"Go and tell your family ruler, if he doesn't see me today, I, I..." Gong Mao couldn't help being speechless when he said this. After thinking about it and thinking about it, he had nothing to threaten Xun Zhen. When he made such a fuss, the halberds guarding the gate of the mansion were all staring at him. If he broke in, he would definitely not be able to enter. Going, he is doing it in one state anyway, it is too shameless to stay away.

After thinking about it, he asked to see Xun Zhen this time, because he was asked by Zhao Ran to intercede with Li Hu. Xun Zhen's face has not been seen yet. If it collapses first, it will definitely be detrimental to his trip. Purpose.

Thinking of this, he slightly restrained his anger and slowed down his tone, and said, "I'm coming to Guijun today, and I really have something important to discuss with the ruler of Guijun. You can report it later."

"This……."

Gong Mao thought: "Since Xun Zhen Shuzi refused to see me under the pretense of being sick, I have come here under the order of the prefect!" Yin said, "If you go and tell the lord of your county, say that I am under the order of Fang Bo. came."

The doorman was stunned, not knowing that Gong Mao's words were false, and complained in his heart, "You have the order of Uncle Fang, but you didn't say it sooner!" In response, he asked Gong Mao to return to the school room to sit for a while, then turned around and entered the mansion again. When he saw Xun Zhen, he told Gong Mao what he said.

The gatekeeper didn't know that Gong Mao's remarks were false. What kind of person was Xun Zhen? But as soon as I heard it, I knew it was a lie. If Gong Mao really came under Wang Fen's order, he would have said it when he asked for an interview before, why would he wait until now to say it? He must have used the name of Wang Fen because he couldn't see himself. However, although he knew that this was false, since Gong Mao said so, he had to meet him.

Xun Zhen said, "Please come in."

The doorman went out to the gate and invited Gong Mao to enter.

Gong Mao held his head high and strode into the mansion, led by two county officials, entered the hall, looked up, and saw a person sitting in the hall.

This person is not very old, in his twenties, wearing a high crown in black, with a green sash on his belt, sitting on the seat with a silver seal on the table in front of him. Although it was the first time he met Xun Zhen, Gong Mao knew that the person in front of him would definitely be Xun Zhen.

Although Gong Mao was very dissatisfied with Xun Zhen because Xun Zhen refused to see him, he couldn't help but secretly said in his heart after meeting him at this time: "I have heard for a long time that the people in the prefecture have rumored that Xun Zhen in Yingchuan is heroic and handsome, and I see him today. , if there is no false person under the name."

Xun Zhen stood up and bowed to Gong Mao.

After the two were seated, Gong Mao couldn't bear the "humiliation" just now, and said, "It's time for the gatekeeper of your house to be replaced."

"how do I say this?"

"I heard him explain that the public was sick and was bedridden, but looking at it now, the public is ruddy and energetic, how can it be seen that he is sick? As a subordinate official, but he cursed the chief official to be sick, and it is too light to chase him. Also! If I were Duke Ming, I would kill this evil official."

Xun Zhen's face did not change, she smiled slightly, and said, "The doorman is not lying."

"Oh?"

"I was originally in bed with a disease, but I was very happy to hear that Your Majesty was here, and the disease was actually mild."

"..." Gong Mao didn't expect Xun Zhen to be so "brazen" and was speechless for a while.

"I heard the doorman say that you came under the order of Fang Bo, I don't know where Fang Bo's order is?"

"Uncle Fang didn't have an order, he just dictated a few words for me to convey to you."

"What?"

"Fang Bo said: Li Jun, the prefect of Guijun County, has always been upright and virtuous. The matter of sending officials to stab people may have been framed by others..."

Xun Zhen didn't wait for him to finish, but interrupted him, saying, "I know what Uncle Fang meant! Laofan-jun sent a message for me." As she spoke, she was about to get up.

He was clearly looking to see off a guest. Gong Mao said in astonishment, "What does Duke Ming mean? Uncle Fang..."

Xun Zhen had already stood up, interrupted him again, and asked, "By the way, Fang Bo sent you to send me a message. I don't know if these words are public or private?"

"What's the difference?"

"If it is a business matter, I will pass the official document to Uncle Fang, and I will recount the case of 'Li Hu sent an official to assassinate Li Xiang'; if it is a private matter, I will write a letter." I have sent an official document "Li Hu stabs Li Xiang", so he said "if it is a business", he will "detail it again".

Gong Mao was speechless, not knowing how to answer.

He came to Wei County this time in private, not by order from Wang Fen. If Xun Zhen really sent Wang Fen an official document or a letter, let Wang Fen know that he was "bringing tiger skins as a banner. ”, doing private affairs outside under the banner of Wang Fen, with Wang Fen’s temper, he knew that he would definitely not get better. Because he didn't expect Xun Zhen to be so straightforward, he would do this, he hesitated for a while before replying, "It's neither public nor private."

Xun Zhen had already bypassed the case and went down to the hall. Hearing what he said, she pretended to be surprised and said, "What do you mean by these words~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I really didn't come here by order of Uncle Fang.... "

Xun Zhen changed his face and scolded: "Why did you lie to me since you didn't come here under Fang Bo's order?"

"This..." The doorman was hesitating just now, but now it was Gong Mao's turn.

Xun Zhen looked furious, waved her sleeves, ignored Gong Mao, and walked straight to the hall door. When approaching the hall door, he stopped and turned around and said to Gong Mao, "Jun Shi just said this. The official of my house should be beheaded. Although the official of my house is contemptible, it is not as good as you! As a subordinate official, you are good at using the name of a chief official to sway and deceive. of."

Gong Maoru was struck by lightning and sat on the seat, dumbfounded watching Xun Zhen walk out of the hall and walk away.
