I am a boss in the Three Kingdoms [System]

Xi Zhong and Guo Jia left Yingchuan on the early morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year.

The two arrived in Jingluo on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year in the carriage prepared by the Xun family.

Although the carriage was luxurious, and several thick quilts were placed inside to absorb the shock, the official road after the snow was really rough, and the carriage was going fast. After six days, the two of them were dizzy and had doubts about their lives.

When I arrived in Beijing, I doubted life even more.

——They thought that the poor little lord, who was being imprisoned in the mansion and was helpless, had been reinstated, and once again became the powerful Mi Guoshi and Mi Duwei.

Not only that, he was also named "Marquis of An Jun", which once again shocked the entire Jingluo and the surrounding gentry.

In fact, the gentry have long been accustomed to being special, but this does not prevent his admirers from writing crazy articles and blowing rainbow farts, holding banquets to circulate articles, vividly describing his uniqueness to others, and calling him "" The hope of the great man's re-establishment".

Then he was ridiculed by the gentry who couldn't get used to it and envied him from the bottom of their hearts, which caused countless spats.

It was the first time to see Xi Zhong and Guo Jia who were so out of control among the nobles: "..."

Ah this.

It can only be said that the gentry in Beijing are really like the emperor... very informal, right? ? ?

The two of them felt fortunate and complicated at the same time.

Then, they finally saw Xun Yu who came to greet them.

In fact, Mi Ren is also here.However, his easy appearance outside would easily cause a sensation, so Xun Yu waited alone at the gate of the city.Seeing Xi and Guo, he smiled and saluted with them, exchanged some pleasantries, and then led them to the carriage around the corner.

The people inside had already stepped off the carriage, watching them with deep eyes and smiling.Seeing them walking in front of them, he solemnly bowed to them again: "Mr. Xi Zhicai and Mr. Guo Xiao, it is really an honor for me to come to Jingluo in front of me."

The two men's hearts trembled, and they hurriedly returned a salute: "Master Mi's words are serious."

It was completely consistent with the rumors, this national teacher who was under one person and over ten thousand people was handsome and flawless in appearance, with an elegant temperament, which did not seem to be in the world.Although he is young but holds a high position, he has an oppressive aura about Yue Zhiyuan, which makes people dare not despise him at all.

Mi Ren smiled and said: "The mansion has prepared delicious food and wine to welcome the two of you. Please follow me first."

Naturally, he prepared delicious food and wine for them, and called his advisers to celebrate his return to the position of national teacher.

When they returned to Mi Mansion, the other counselors had already arrived.They didn't know Guo Jia and Xi Zhong before, but they were all well-known in their hometown. After Xun Yu introduced them to them, they warmly accepted the two and quickly became acquainted.

During the banquet, fine wine was accompanied by delicacies, and there were scribes chatting about the world. Everyone was in high spirits, with a wide range of knowledge, and they could chat a few words about everything.

Xi Zhong stared at the crowd without speaking.

At first, he just quietly listened to the conversation among the people, without expressing any opinions, and occasionally took a sip of fine wine, with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth all the time.

Obviously, the wine was delicious, and the atmosphere between the guest and the lord was particularly good.

His future lord Mi Guoshi unashamedly raised a glass with everyone and talked about current affairs.He occasionally expressed his views, usually to the point, and his political views were roughly the same as theirs.Occasionally there are differences, but they can also be discussed peacefully and take advantage of everyone's strengths.

But this does not mean that Mi Yan is on equal footing with them.In fact, the words of these disciples did not exceed the slightest distance, and they were obviously convinced of their lord.

Looks good, Xi Zhongxin thought.Then stay and observe for a period of time to see carefully whether the prospective lord is as touted by the world, and then decide whether to work for him.

He made up his mind and stopped treating himself as a guest, and calmly joined in to chat with everyone.

On the other side, Guo Jia just drank a small glass of wine, his eyes lit up.

Slightly different from what he had imagined, although the wine was sweet and mellow like grapes, it was also somewhat indescribably sour and sharp.But these slight bitterness had quietly dissipated when he subconsciously frowned, leaving only a rich and sweet taste, with endless aftertaste!

Is this the taste of the rumored wine?

He knew that Meng Tuo gave Zhang Rang wine as a gift in the early years, and he had to be promoted to become the governor of Liangzhou. He had long been curious about this fine wine that made even the Zhongchang servant Zhao Zhong, who was overshadowed by his hands, fascinated.

At first, I thought that I could only drink it when I became famous and became a marquis.Unexpectedly, today he drank it before it was determined whether he had entered Mi Guoshi's camp!

Sure enough, this trip was worthwhile!Rao is driving in the snow, it is worth it!

He was very happy, and poured himself a glass of wine happily.He didn't know that Zhang Rang used horse urine to evaluate the wine sent by Meng Tuo after drinking the fine grape wine made by Mi Ren.

He only knew that this Mi Guoshi was richer than he imagined!

Guo Jia smacked his lips, and became a little curious about the rice wine in the white-glazed porcelain bottle beside him.

The wine is bottled in glass, which is poured into a decanter, and its bright red color is particularly eye-catching.The one in this porcelain bottle looks a little ordinary.

But as long as it is wine, he will never miss it.

Pour out a glass shallowly, and there will be a richer wine aroma than wine, with obvious rice aroma.One bite, sweet and soft, with a long aftertaste!His throat was even hotter, and his cheeks were slightly red.

——The famous wine, delicious!

——And this kind of unknown white rice wine is not far behind!

Guo Jia widened his eyes to the extreme.

What kind of fairy wine is this!

Compared with these kinds of fine wines, the wines he had drunk before were simply tasteless white water!

After drinking such fine wine, can I still drink it in the future? !

Of course not!

And I just heard what Mi Guoshi said in a conversation with others, he is still trying to develop and brew more fine wine!

Not to mention more, just for these two kinds of fine wines, he also wants to stay and be a counselor to Mi Guoshi! !

Guo Jia took a deep breath, tried his best to restrain his bubbling mood, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "These fine wines brewed by the lord are really celestial nectar. If we can accompany such fine wines every day in the future..."

As he spoke, he stared at Mi Yan expectantly, his eyes shining brighter than ever before.

He has worked so hard to express his lord, so he will definitely agree to him, right?As long as the lord agrees to him, he will serve under the lord for the rest of his life!

It was only then that Mi Yan noticed him and said in surprise, "They actually gave you a drink?"

……Um?What do you mean by that?

Guo Jia stared blankly at him, and suddenly had an ominous premonition in his mind.

What answered him was Mi Yan's slightly frowning expression and a slightly apologetic voice: "I'm sorry, Mr. Guo Jia, it was the mistake of my housekeeper who served you these drinks today."

He said to Zhou Ci with a stern face: "Butler Zhou, hurry up and serve a glass of milk to sir, and replace the wine on his table."

"Yes." Zhou Ci bowed, and quickly walked to Guo Jia's side, removed the wine for him and replaced it with milk.

Guo Jiaru was struck by lightning: "Wait, wait a minute!"

He snatched the rice wine in a small porcelain bottle from Zhou Ci's hands with lightning speed, and hugged it in his arms to protect him: "Why can't Jia drink anymore?!"

Mi Yan glanced at him, hooked the corners of her lips as if there was nothing, and said slowly: "If children drink alcohol, it will be bad for their health."

Zhao Yun on the side heard this, glanced at him blankly, and remained silent for a while.

Guo Jia's face was full of confusion: "...Ke Jia is over fifteen years old, so she is not always a child."

Mi Yan smiled: "Mr. Guo Jiaxiao, if a man is in his twenties, you will have to wait at least four more years before you can drink this kind of liquor."

Guo Jia's goosebumps exploded all over his body: "No!"

He drank the rice wine he had snatched: "Absolutely not!"

After drinking this wine, the pungentness rises from the stomach and goes straight to the forehead. Tears well up in his eyes, but he feels indescribably bold, which makes him very happy!

"Why not?" Mi Yan raised her eyebrows, "Young Master Guo, look at Ayun, he only drinks milk from now on."

Zhao Yun, who heard that drinking more milk can grow taller and stronger, smiled honestly: "Yes, Yun has been drinking fresh milk every day for more than half a year, so he has grown a lot taller. Young Master and Yun At the same age, but the height is only at the mouth of the cloud, shouldn't it be more milk?"

Heh, he hasn't had any alcohol since he's been here for so long, so this newcomer just wants to drink every day?

Ten keys and three five baht coins, how many do you have?

Guo Jia, who felt like he was shot by an arrow in his knee: "..."

With tears streaming down his face, he could only stretch out his hand weakly: "My lord, at least let Jia finish this meal..."

What answered him was Mi Li's unprecedented cold voice: "No."

The banquet ended successfully.

Guo Jia was placed in the other courtyard of Mi Mansion, under the supervision of Mi Renai; as for Xizhong Xizhicai, he had some friendship with Xun You, so Xun Yu asked him to live in Xun Mansion first.

After dealing with all this, Mi Yan took a bath and changed clothes, leaned on the soft couch in the study to read, and waited for Xun Yu to finish the task of today's account books before going back to the room to rest.

Under the candlelight, he lay casually on his side, propped his head on one hand, and occasionally flipped through books with the other.The whole person is indescribably lazy and gentle.

After Xun Yu finished processing the account book, seeing his contented appearance, he couldn't help chuckling: "My lord is really calculating today."

Zhaoxian and You'an are both Zisu's classmates, and they have a very deep relationship with him, and no one can separate them; Zhong Yao and He Yong deeply love Zisu's running script and articles, and often talk and exchange, and become confidants; Zhou Ci, Huang Zhong, Lu Zhi and others were deeply favored by Zisu and were willing to give their loyalty and life to him; Zhao Yun was brought back by Zisu to train him carefully, made him study and gave him excellent equipment...

And him and Gongda.For everyone, Zisu can find a corresponding weakness and keep them by his side.

And these people are all attracted by the future that Zisu wants to create, and they are willing to devote their efforts and efforts to it.

How could Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia escape from Zisu's grasp?

At present, Xi Zhicai has not expressed anything, but Guo Jia is obviously attracted by the good wine that is temporarily unavailable.

The boy stayed here unwillingly, but it was foreseeable that he would go out to buy wine and eat later.With the fine nectar and jade liquid I drank today as a comparison, wouldn't it be impossible to drink the best wine out there?

At that time, Mi Yan will seduce him with fine wine every once in a while, won't that young man become the next Zhao Yun and follow him wholeheartedly?

He has no doubts about Zisu's respect and love for talents, nor his ability to control people's hearts.

Mi Yan laughed when she heard this.

He hooked his fingers towards Xun Yu and called him to his side.Then he pulled his right hand slightly harder, and pulled the unsuspecting man to the ground, almost hitting his chest.

Fortunately, Xun Yu reacted quickly and put his hands on his side to prevent the two of them from being hurt by each other.

The people under him didn't care about him, they were still stroking his lips to tease him: "What kind of scheme, other people don't know about it. As for Wen Ruo, I am willing to serve you with my beauty, can you be satisfied?"

Hearing Xun Yu's throat choke, he couldn't move his eyes away.

The next day, the New Year's rest holiday ended, and all the officials returned to the court.

Seeing Mi Yan, no matter what they thought in their hearts, everyone was very happy on their faces, and they all thanked him for helping to persuade His Majesty to stop collecting money for palace repairs.

The emperor was seriously ill, so he braced his body to go to the early court with everyone, and ordered to stop repairing palace money and amnesty the world.

As for Zhang Rang, who was imprisoned, and Li Daoxian, who was paralyzed, murdering the emperor is a serious crime for the Zhu Jiu clan, and no one can save them.

Zhang Rang could only commit suicide in prison.The ten permanent attendants who were arrogant and domineering two years ago completely fell out of favor and lost their glory.

All the officials raised their hands to increase their quotas, and there was thunderous cheers.Everyone was ecstatic and extremely grateful to Mi Ren.

As for the small number of officials who paid the money for repairing the palace, they were almost spit out blood by the imperial decree.The emperor will not return the money they paid to them, but directly charge it to the treasury and use it as taxes.

But who can blame this?

It's not that they don't believe Mi Guoshi's advice!

However, the good times didn't last long, one night half a month later, a side hall in the West Palace suddenly leaked water.The poisonous flames swept through the entire palace in an unstoppable manner, and even burned to death three palace servants who went to put out the fire but failed to escape in time.

The stern roar resounded throughout the night, and the raging fire illuminated the entire palace. Liu Hong was so frightened that he hid in the bed and shivered, and fell into a coma the next day, talking nonsense in panic.

When he recovered from his illness, he called Mi Yi to him and asked him if the fire was a crime committed by the gods. If he sincerely repented, would the gods forgive him?

Mi Yan naturally comforted him again and again.Tell him that someone accidentally knocked over the kerosene lamp, and that the fire was just an accident, not a punishment from the gods.

But Liu Hong had already decided this matter in his heart, even if Mi Yan tried to dissuade him repeatedly, he could not dispel his suspicion.

Liu Hong finally decided to build a "sacrifice temple", and planned to worship the gods every day in the temple, praying for the gods to forgive his crimes.

In order to worship the gods, Liu Hong wanted to build the palace into an unprecedented richness and luxury.He wants to use the best golden nanmu, the hardest red bricks and stones, the brightest red and black paint... Such a configuration, even if all the money copied from Zhang Rang's mansion is invested in it, it is not enough at all.

So Liu Hong ordered to urge the money for repairing the palace, ordering the officials of all states and counties to pay off enough materials as quickly as possible.

Liu Hong issued a death order, and the officials who thought that Mi Yan could escape the palace repair money after he was reinstated had no choice but to obey.Everyone sighed and went to the West Garden to pay money or materials, their hearts ached like blood.

【1】In addition to the officials in Beijing, the state shepherds, governors, prefects and other officials in other states were forced to pay money.State shepherds and governors have to pay at least 3000 million yuan, and prefects everywhere have to pay at least 2000 million yuan.There are also newly appointed officials, or those who resign and refuse to go, they must first go to Xiyuan to pay the due money before they can leave Jingluo.

The emperor's requirements for materials were unprecedentedly high, and the officials who dealt with the repair of the palace took the opportunity to find fault with the materials and embezzle the "money for repairing the palace".

They thought that all the materials sent by officials were substandard, and forced merchants and officials everywhere to sell them at a low price, and the price was only [-]% of the original price;

The officials in the states and counties could not complete the task because of this, so they bought wood again, but the officials who took over were still dissatisfied and refused to use the wood.As a result, the timber transported from various places piled up in the palace to form a mountain, but the construction of the palace never started;

Seeing that the materials were almost unqualified, Liu Hong became furious, and ordered the guards of the West Garden to go to various states and counties to urge them.And these people win over and intimidate the state and county governments, and accept a lot of bribes.The governors and prefects of various places also took the opportunity to increase the taxation of the people and embezzle a large amount of money and food from it. 【1】

In just half a year, the common people have returned to mourning against the imperial court from their joy and encouragement when Mi Rian promoted autumn rice and farm tools.All of a sudden, public grievances arose again.

In April, Liangzhou generals Song Yang, Bei Gongyu, Li Wenhou and others elected Bian Zhang and Han Sui as leaders, supported more than [-] troops, and killed Chen Yi, the governor of Liangzhou, to rebel.

At the same time, the Yellow Turban Army, which had subsided, was ready to move again.
