The Great Explosion of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 93

The more celebrity you are, the more you cherish your feathers.It is the current consensus that the eunuch party is in power and persecutes virtuous ministers.In this general environment, unless you really plan to be with the eunuchs, it is best not to get involved with them.

Not only can't be with them, but also can't let their conspiracy succeed.Cui Lie spent 500 million yuan to buy Situ, but his reputation plummeted.In less than two years, he was changed to Taiwei, but he was dismissed in the same year.Really at this time, none of the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty pleaded for him. One can imagine how important fame is in these years.

On the contrary, Huangfusong originally served as the governor of Jizhou, but he said: "In order to recuperate, please lower or exempt the people of Jizhou from taxes for one year."So he offended Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong and was immediately dismissed.However, the officials were willing, and even Liu Hong had to worry about it, so he was appointed General Zuo last year.

Another example is Lu Zhi, who refused to eunuch the party to ask for bribes, and was directly framed and imprisoned. As a result, Huangfusong interceded and directly gave Lu Zhi the credit for pacifying the Yellow Turbans in Jizhou, so Liu Hong had to let Lu Zhi resume his post and still serve as an official. Shangshu.

Zheng Xuan used these principles to warn Shi Xie, but the latter had no intention of agreeing from the beginning.Otherwise, if you really want to get the wealth of Yishi's family, any three princes can get it, let alone a mere governor of Jiaozhou?
It took Shi Xie a lot of time to join Liu Tao's family.This reputation is not easy to accumulate, and Shi Xie also cherishes feathers very much.So when the eunuch came to proclaim the decree and asked Shi Xie to pay the palace repair money before he could take office, he refused without thinking.

Of course the eunuch returned in a panic, but Shi Xie won the approval of all the officials in Jiaozhi.There are rumors in the market that Shi Xie is upright, honest and upright.Following the merchants, it was first passed on to the counties of Jiaozhou, and then passed on to the Central Plains through special channels. The disciples under the name of Zheng Xuan were all helping to tout it.

In this era of very slow information transmission, Shi Xie has gained a large enough reputation in a short period of time.The key is that the ministers in the court will also stand on his side. After all, everyone has the same position, or interests.

The problem now is that when the eunuch returned to Luoyang, he found out that Liu Hong had died!In these two days, the ten permanent attendants cooperated with Empress He to support the eldest son Liu Bian as the emperor, and Empress He listened to the government behind the curtain, and controlled the court with the ten permanent attendants.

In desperation, he had no choice but to report Shi Xie's reply first, and it was Liu Hong's intention to ask Shi Xie to pay for the repair of the palace.As a result, Shi Xie did not pay, and Zhang Rang certainly did not allow such a thing to happen.If it weren't for the lack of power, Shi Xie's position as prefect of Jiaozhi would not even be abolished.

But up to now, I have to tell His Majesty and Queen Mother He to know.

"Since he is inappropriate, another person should be appointed. The situation in Jiaozhou is complicated, and the position of governor cannot always be vacant. Your Majesty, what do you think?" Queen He announced directly after hearing the words, and then asked Liu Bian symbolically. .

"What the queen mother said is very true!" Liu Bian was originally dull and did not dare to disobey his mother, so he could only nod in agreement.

But the problem was that when Liu Bian asked who would be the governor of Jiaozhou when he went to court the next day, all the ministers didn't say a word, and they all kept silent.

"Could it be that there is no one available for the big man?" After He Hou signaled, Zhang Rang yelled directly.

"Your Majesty!" Yuan Kai stepped forward, "If Shi Xie is so virtuous and knowledgeable about the situation in Jiaozhou, he can't be the governor of Jiaozhou, so who else in the world can be the governor of Jiaozhou?"

"The first emperor had already planned to confer Shi Xie as governor, but who is to blame for Shi Xie's ignorance?" Zhang Rang retorted.

"Shi Xie was loyal to the imperial court. When the South China Sea was in chaos, he used a light army of [-] soldiers to make a surprise attack. In less than a month, the rebellion was quelled, and the loss of Jiaozhou was minimized. In addition, under his rule, the population of Jiaozhi doubled, and the people Living and working in peace and contentment, it is not an exaggeration for Shi Xie to be directly promoted to governor of Jiaozhou because of emotion and reason.

I heard that the reason why Shi Xie didn't accept it was because the eunuchs he sent asked him for millions of money to repair the palace... If Shi Xie really paid, what would be the difference from buying the Governor of Jiaozhou with money? "Yang Biao, the current head of the Hongnong Yang family, came out and said.

"The palace has been in disrepair for a long time. As a subject, it is reasonable and reasonable to donate some money for the repair of the palace for His Majesty. Why is there a problem?" Zhang Rang cast a look at the eunuchs, and immediately there were subjects, who said under pressure.

"A donation is a donation and should not be linked to meritorious service. There is never a reason in the world to force others to donate." Yuan Wei said.

"Hmph, when I really asked you for a donation, who else donated it? Otherwise, the former Taiwei Cui Lie is quite talented. Since they don't plan to be the governor of Jiaozhou, how about appointing him as the governor of Jiaozhou?" After that, He called the names directly. In her opinion, since Cui Lie can spend money to buy Sangong, it must be ridiculous to be the governor.

So he immediately sent someone to find Cui Lie. Although the latter left the court, his son still held an official position, so he was still living in Luoyang. Half an hour later, the eunuch sent out came back and said that Cui Lie was studying the scriptures behind closed doors. , no intention of official career.

In fact, many people are aware of this result. Cui Lie's reputation was bad because of buying an official before, and everyone took him to play.Even this influence has further affected his son, who has been marginalized in the army for two years.

This is a wake-up call, and I closed the door to study hard. While the human design is not completely broken, I can only start from scratch slowly. As for the eunuch party, I really dare not touch it.

Cui Lie refused, so he ordered another eunuch, but the eunuch felt the caring attention of all the bigwigs, finally couldn't bear it, and hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, the minister's mother has passed away for more than a month. My son, how can I not keep my filial piety. Please, Your Majesty, allow me to resign and go back to my hometown to observe my filial piety!"

That's right, I don't want any official positions!Zhang Rang immediately felt personally that since the death of the first emperor, the status and influence of the ten permanent servants have been greatly reduced, even with the support of the Queen Mother and the new emperor, it is useless.The dogs who were originally attached to them are now starting to play with the wind.If you keep pushing, I'm afraid that none of them will be available.

"Could it be that no one in my big man plans to be the governor of Jiaozhou? Zhu Jun, you have served as the governor of Jiaozhou before, are you willing to do it again?" He Hou became anxious and looked directly at Zhu Jun.

"The second son of the minister, just died in the post of governor of Jiaozhou..." Zhu Jun bowed solemnly to Liu Bian, the meaning was self-evident.Now, Jiaozhou is a sad place for him, if the imperial court forces him to serve as governor, it would be a bit unkind.

"That's all..." Liu Bian finally couldn't sit still, and if he continued, he would lose the face of being an emperor. "Since Shi Xie owes a lot to me, and my father also intends to appoint him as the governor of Jiaozhou, then let him be appointed governor of Jiaozhou!"

"Your Majesty..." Zhang Rang really wanted to say, 'The one who asked him to pay the palace money is also your father'!
"Mother's Queen!" Liu Bian didn't dare to fight Zhang Rang, so he turned his head to look at Queen He.

"Since the first emperor has already planned to appoint Shi Xie as the governor of Jiaozhou, so be it!" After all, Hehou is Liu Bian's mother. If she doesn't help Liu Bian, who else will help him?It can only be said that this child is still a little tender, not thick-skinned enough!

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the ministers are forcing them to abolish the rule that they have to pay the palace repair money every time they are promoted.It's just that Liu Bian has just become the new king, and it's time to win people's hearts. After thinking about it, He Hou decided to compromise.

　Ask for collection, ask for recommendation!
