Leaving aside Ding Gong's pedantic attributes, a person who has successively served as Guang Luxun, Sikong, and Shangshutai can be a villain who only knows how to flatter?
of course not.
Without further ado, Lu Bu immediately announced to the imperial court that Ding Gong was Da Si Nong.
The main responsibility of Da Si Nong is to be in charge of the taxation and money of the whole country. It is the Ministry of Finance of the central government of the Han Dynasty.All state financial expenditures, army expenses, such as land rent, oral taxation, salt and iron monopoly, water transportation, currency management, etc. are all managed by Da Si Nong.
With Ding Gong in charge of these, private salt circulation and ironware trading in places like Bingzhou and Xiliang no longer need to be sneaky, but can trade in an open and honest manner under the banner of the imperial court.
Anyway, Ding Gong helped with the accounting.
Facts have proved that Ding Gong did handle it very well and did not leak any water.
With the support of officials, Lu Bu entered Chang'an.
The soldiers under his command let Cao Xing take them back to the barracks. They were already exhausted from the journey, and it was time for them to take a rest.
Went to the palace to meet the emperor, and after talking with the emperor and ministers, Lu Bu bid farewell to the emperor and returned to his mansion.
After a few months, the little bell seemed to have grown a lot taller.
Seeing their father coming back, the three siblings ran over happily.
Lu Bu squatted down very fondly. Fortunately, his arms were relatively broad. He held his two sons in his left hand and his daughter in his right hand. He walked in an even and steady manner.
When Yan Wei, the mother, saw her, she hurriedly called to her children: "Little Lingdang, Zhuan'er, Xiao'er, come down quickly. Daddy just came back and is tired. Don't be naughty."
Lu Bu shook his head slightly, looked at Yan Wei with gentle eyes, and signaled his wife not to worry.
"Daddy, you have a beard, I'll help you pull it off!"
Little Bell let out an exclamation, her eyes jumped with joy, as if she had discovered a new continent, she began to pull her hands as she spoke.
As soon as she pulled it out, Lu Bu bared his teeth in pain.
Seeing this, the two sons didn't dare to lag behind. They stretched out their little hands and picked up the short stubble.
How could Lu Bu let them succeed, he took his son and daughter into his arms, and rubbed their little faces with his stubble, which made his son and daughter laugh non-stop while avoiding them.
Chen Gong stood behind Lv Bu without saying a word, he was relatively indifferent to things like emotions.
At this moment, in his eyes, there is only the thin scribe walking towards him.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
"Ce, I have met the general."
Xi Ce stepped forward and bowed his hands to salute.
After putting his children down, Lu Bu waved his hands and looked at Xi Ce with a smile on his face: "Sir, you and I are not outsiders, why should you be so polite, let's go in and talk."
When they arrived at the main room, Lu Bu, Xi Ce and Chen Gong took their seats.
"Sir, during the time I was away in Chang'an, did any major events happen?" This was what Lu Bu was most concerned about. He almost lost contact with Chang'an when he went to Hanzhong. The speed of news transmission between the two places was really too slow.
Xi Ce looked at Lu Bu and replied, "General, everything is fine in Guanzhong."
In the past few months, the recruiting hall has flourished and attracted many scholars.Some talents with more outstanding abilities have already begun to arrange official positions.Of course, it is not realistic at the moment to directly become an official in the imperial court, and most of the replacement positions are middle and lower-level officials.
Cultivating party members is not a matter of overnight, you have to be steady and take your time.
"Then is there any movement from the princes in various places?" Lu Bu asked again.
Xi Ce nodded, and explained in detail with Lu Bu: "Two months ago, the Yuan-Cao coalition forces broke through the two passes of Hulao and Yuanyuan in the east and southeast of Luoyang, and arrived in Luoyang. , the two sides have confronted so far.”
During this period, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's tricks came out one after another, such as rumors, deception, and surrender, which caused Dong Zhuo's army's morale to drop and their spirits to slump.
Unwilling to sit still and wait for death, Dong Zhuo also sent people to attack the grain and grass, trying to follow the strategy of Hulaoguan and cut off Yuan Cao's supplies.As a result, the attack failed, and against Cao Cao's plan, all the thousands of soldiers who went there were lost. "
When Lu Bu heard about this, his eyes showed a little appreciation: "Cao Cao is very cunning! He learned a lot from being caught in a trap, and it will be difficult to break his way in the future."
When talking about Cao Cao, Chen Gong frowned, and said firmly: "This man is cruel and cruel, and he is not a gentleman!"
"Oh, Gongtai recognizes Cao Cao?"
Hearing Chen Gong's speech, Lu Bu became somewhat interested.He knew that Chen Gong in his previous life had worked under Cao Cao for a long time, and he had won Yanzhou for Cao Cao.Later, when Cao Cao conquered Tao Qian, Chen Gong introduced himself to Yanzhou and helped him defeat Cao Cao many times.
So, how did Chen Gong and Cao Cao get to know each other in this life?
Chen Gongsui said that when he was the magistrate of Zhongmou County in the past, he saved Cao Cao's life by chance, and he abandoned his official position and fled to Chenliu with him.However, Cao Cao killed his old friend Lu Boshe's family on the way, which caused Chen Gong's impression of him to change drastically.Especially the sentence after the murder, "I would rather bear others than others", made Chen Gong extremely disappointed in Cao Cao.
I would rather bear others, than others bear me.
Lu Bu murmured a few times, as if he had some feeling in his heart. This seemingly ruthless sentence actually contained the iron-blooded spirit of a generation of heroes.
"How am I compared to Cao Cao?" Lu Bu asked Chen Gong.
"General Gao Yi, who leveled the army and horses, made countless military exploits, and rescued the emperor's officials from Dong Zhuo's tiger's mouth. He was worthy of the emperor and benefited the people. He is the humerus of the great man and the pillar of the country. Cao Cao can't compare it. .”
Chen Gong answered righteously, and in his heart, it was true.
Lu Bu was very satisfied with this answer, so he continued to ask: "Then if one day, between me and the big man, you can only choose one, who will you choose?"
Chen Gong had a troubled expression on his face, apparently he had never thought about this question.
In his eyes, Lu Bu is a wise master worthy of serving, and helping the Han Dynasty is his ideal in this life.
It's really hard to choose between the two.
"Hahaha, Gongtai, I was joking with you!"
Chen Gong couldn't give a clear answer, but Lu Bu laughed out loud instead, and said encouragingly, "You and I are both Han subjects. In this life, we should work hard to revitalize the Han Dynasty and put down the thieves in the world."
Hearing these words, Chen Gong's face was excited, hope rekindled in his eyes, he secretly thought that he had seen the right person, stood up from his seat, cupped his hands and responded decisively: "Gong is willing to follow the general to the death and revive the great man!"
Lu Bu smiled and asked him to sit down.
In addition to Yuan Cao's pressure on Dong Zhuo, the imperial court also ordered Gao Shun to take advantage of the situation and go east to Hangu Pass to besiege Dong Zhuo.
"Gao Shun gone?"
Lu Bu's face was a little dignified, and he didn't know anything about this matter.
Xi Ce shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "General Gao hasn't left the customs, I have called in advance and asked him to say he is sick."
Chen Gong frowned at this, apparently disapproving of Xie Ce's way of deceiving Sheng Ting.
Lu Bu didn't say anything. He now has Bingzhou, Xiliang, Guanzhong, Hanzhong and other places in his hands, and his wings are gradually full, and he already has the strength to fight Dong Zhuo head-on.
