Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 413 The dream of the branch

  The influence of the Little Ice Age seems to be gradually reflected. Although spring has arrived, the temperature has not risen as before, but it still looks quite cold.

  In the county office, there was a moment of silence. The atmosphere that seemed a little easy-going at first seemed to be stuck, and it seemed so stiff and disharmonious.

There is nothing wrong with Chen Rui's request. If you think about it, it's like different departments of the same company. Because of a certain task or activity, one of the departments is short of manpower. Now you want to borrow some manpower from another department. It is a normal process and requirement for another department head to seek approval from his superiors...

   Otherwise, after the fall, if there is any problem, whose fault is it?

   But the problem is that Fei Qian has no way to get the support of the imperial court, and secondly, he has no way to go to Wang Yi to obtain the transfer document. The time is already urgent, so what else can I do?

   Chen Rui saw that Fei Qian could not come up with any evidence immediately, and knew in his heart that there was probably no evidence, because in order to avoid the embarrassment of the atmosphere, he pretended not to say anything, and invited Fei Qian to have a taste of tea...

   But Fei Qian didn't want to give up. After finally getting to this point, could he just stay here?

Fei Qian suddenly felt that if it was possible, he really needed to think of a way to get the Huxiong Zhonglang into his hands. Among other things, he could command and control the area from Sanfu to Liaodong in the North The strength of the army is already very easy to use.

  Although the soldiers of each family are in their own hands now, even if there are orders, the local bosses may not necessarily listen, but at least the status will not be as embarrassing as it is now.

  A Sima from another department, the grade is still a bit lower...

   "The spring plowing has begun, I wonder if the county magistrate Chen has cured it?" Fei Qian saw that the topic had entered a dead end, and if he was tough, it might not have any good results, so he might as well find a way to make a breakthrough from another aspect.

  As a local chief executive, farming and water conservancy are very important tasks. Even the prefect of the county will conduct inspections in the spring to determine whether the arrangements are made in a timely and effective manner in each county.

   Although Chen Rui hadn't figured out why Fei Qian suddenly changed the topic, he still replied immediately: "All arrangements have been made, the cultivation of young crops, and the dredging of ditches have all started."

   Fei Qian smiled and said: "In Puxian County, autumn harvest can be expected, and County Magistrate Chen has made a great contribution."

  Chen Rui waved his hands and said: "Agriculture is the foundation of the country, and I really dare not speak of merit."

"Plowing in spring, cultivating in summer, harvesting in autumn, hiding in winter, cutting firewood, governing the government, and giving corvee service; in spring, there is no shelter from dust, from summer heat, from autumn, from rain, from winter, there is no day. Take a rest..." Fei Qian looked at Chen Rui and said with a smile, "... County Magistrate Chen cares about people's livelihood and manages agriculture and mulberry. How lucky are the people of Pu County? This is the grace of life, how can it be in vain?"

Chen Rui smiled slightly, this Fei Qian's words were not very easy to answer, it seemed a bit arrogant to say that he had meritorious deeds, and if he said no meritorious service, the matter of Nongsang was indeed very important, but Chen Rui still didn't quite understand what Fei Qian said all of a sudden What exactly does this mean...

"The people in Ranpu County are under the care of County Magistrate Chen, but who do the people in Yong'an care about now?" Fei Qian changed the subject and said, "Now the young crops in Yong'an are destroyed, there is no harvest in autumn, the white waves are entrenched, and farming is gone! If today If we don't take Yong'an quickly and put down Baibo, is it possible that the county magistrate Chen wants to use the land of one county to provide money and food for three counties?"

  Chen Rui opened his eyes wide and said, "How does this happen?"

"Spring is short and fleeting. If you replant young seedlings at this time, there is still room to wait. However, if you sit here and watch, you will be safe, but you will miss a good opportunity. When the white waves recede, only Pu County has not been at war. Zheng Tiao, do you want to disobey orders?" Fei Qian said solemnly.

   "This..." Chen Rui's eyeballs moved from side to side.

What Fei Qian said is very realistic, and it is indeed the case. If Pu County is the only county that has not encountered the flames of war, when production resumes after the war, it must bear a considerable amount of responsibility, requisition food and grass, and send additional labor. It is relatively close to Yong'an, and there is no excuse for finding a long-distance and unchanging transshipment...

   "Magistrate Chen and Yingchuan Chen Changwen are related?"

That's why it's cool to be a leader. You can change the topic anytime, anywhere. Although Fei Qian is only acting as the county magistrate, he is still in a higher rank than Chen Rui, the county magistrate. Therefore, he didn't wait for Chen Rui's answer and asked directly. road.

  Chen Rui cupped his hands and said, "Chen Changwen is my brother." Although his tone was steady, Fei Qian could feel that when Chen Rui talked about Chen Changwen, the corners of his mouth pulled down a little.

  The pull-down range is not large, and the time is very short, and it returns to its original state almost in a blink of an eye. Fei Qian slightly lowered his eyelids, looked at the tea soup on the table, and made quick calculations in his mind, feeling that he was a little more sure of persuading Chen Rui.

   "Chen county magistrate and Chen Changwen belong to the same three monarchs?" Fei Qian asked.

  In the Chen family, a prominent family in Yingchuan, Chen Shi had six sons in total, among which Chen Ji and Chen Chen were the most famous, so people called them the "Three Monarchs". Therefore, the descendants derived from the "Three Monarchs of the Chen Clan" are the most important branch of the Chen Clan in Yingchuan, and Chen Qun is the son of Chen Ji, so Fei Qian actually asked whether Chen Rui belongs to the main branch of the Chen Clan...

   "...my late father disobeyed modesty, and was already outside Taiqiu Gong's five clothes." When Chen Rui talked about Chen Taiqiu, he bowed his hands to the south to show respect. The source of the Chen family is complicated. Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, many branches have split. The first branch is naturally Yingchuan Chen, and then there are Chenliu Chen, Yangwu Chen, Gushi Chen, etc., but Gushi Chen did not After entering Yingchuan Chen, Chen Rui is probably the Chen surname of this branch.

   Feiqian nodded, it was similar to what he had expected before. Although Chen Rui didn't say it clearly before, if he was the main line of the Yingchuan Chen family, it would be impossible to come to such a remote area to serve as the county magistrate. Therefore, Fei Qian said with a smile: "Mr. Taiqiu's character is noble and pure. He seeks righteousness when he enters, and he who retreats without complaint. He cultivates straightness and tranquility. He does not seek to be good, but to be enlightened. The people are safe, and they strive to praise each other. The world admires his virtue..."

"...The county magistrate of Chen is now in charge of the government," Fei Qian first praised Chen Taiqiu, then paused, looked at Chen Rui and said, "...When De Ze Jiamin, eliminate difficulties and become famous all over the world, I wonder if County Magistrate Chen thinks so?" At this point, the meaning is already obvious.

   Now it's up to you, Chen Rui, what you think...

  If you are ambitious and not satisfied with the status quo, then you will naturally know what I mean!

   Fei Qian looked at Chen Rui and smiled slightly.

Xuande paid homage to Kong Ming and said: "Although Bei is famous for his meager virtue, I hope that Mr. Bei will not abandon his humbleness and go out to help, and Bei will listen to Ming's instructions." Kongming said: "Liangjiu is happy to plow and hoe. " Xuande cried and said: "Sir, if you don't come out, it's like the common people!" After speaking, tears stained the sleeves of his robe, and the front of his clothes was completely wet.

   …

   …

   It was the first time Liu Bei cried in front of Zhuge, and the effect was very good...

   Zhuge let out a long sigh, moved, and went out of the mountain...
