The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms Chapter 189

Xun Zhen also had good intentions towards the soldiers of Mount Tai.

First, he adopted the opinions of Yinde and Chen Deng, and expressed Zang Ba and others as high-ranking positions, and then took advantage of the opportunity that Zang Ba and others were in Tanxian County, and decisively adjusted Zang Ba to Yinping, and divided Sun Guan and others into Langya County North, Langya County, etc. The county in the east of the county, and sent Xun Chengcheng to supervise Langya's military, Chen Bing between Taishan county and Sun Guan's generals, not only to frighten Sun Guan and others, but also to isolate Sun Guan and others from Taishan county, thus breaking the root cause. The two capable officials, Chen Deng and Luan Gu, were divided into Langya Prefect and Langya Cheng, who controlled Langya politically.

Now, after listening to Chen Qun's suggestion, I think it makes sense, so I specially sent envoys to Mount Tai and invited scholars from Mount Tai to come to Xuzhou as officials, in the hope of "receiving the hearts of soldiers from Mount Tai" as Chen Qun said.

After using all the measures together, Xun Zhen said in his heart: "Zang Ba, Sun Guan and others are arrogant and domineering, but they still refuse to join their sincerity, but seeing that our military and government are in full swing, and using Taishan scholars to win their hearts, Then you should be aware of the situation, at least you won't cause trouble for me, right?"

After talking about hiring Yang Cong and Gao Tanglong, Xun Zhen remembered another thing because of this.

He said: "When I was in Guangling, I once sent people back to Yingchuan to invite scholars from Yingchuan, but very few came. I also knew that at that time I only had one county, Guangling, which was remote and the people were very poor. There are few households, and the prefectures and states of Ji and Henan are not as rich, so it is not surprising that few people come. Now, I have already obtained Xuzhou, but I can send an envoy to Yingchuan and invite scholars to come to Xu to help me.”

Yuan Shao was in Jizhou, and he sent people to call Ru and Ying famous scholars to Ji; Tao Qian was in Xuzhou, and most of them were from Danyang.

This is not because they only "use cronyism", but because there are objective reasons.

The reason why Guangwu was able to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty mainly relied on the power of the local tyrants, so since the revival, the local tyrants were powerful; in view of the lessons of Wang Mang's usurpation of power, after Guangwu established the country, he attached great importance to Confucianism and respected the famous festivals. Appreciate each other and praise each other, in order to be famous in the world and serve in the imperial court. The combination of the two has produced many consequences, one of which is that the scholars have a very strong sense of territory. Take Runan and Yingchuan as an example. The two counties are bordering and belong to Yuzhou, so they can be regarded as coexisting. However, the scholars of the two counties still disagreed with each other and often competed for fame, which shows how strong the concept of "regarding the county as the country" was.

The county is still like this, let alone the state?

As a foreigner, Xun Zhen won the control of Xuzhou not by imperial edict, but by means of war. Even if he can get the support of some Xuzhou scholars, it is still far from enough to stabilize his rule. .

——Not to mention, are those Xuzhou scholars who supported him supporting him out of personal and family interests, or did they support him sincerely? These are hard to say.

Therefore, in order to stabilize his ruling foundation in Xuzhou, he had to use his fellow villagers, Yingchuan scholars, as his wings. Only in this way can he balance the political influence of Xuzhou scholars in the local area, so as to firmly grasp the political power in Xuzhou.

Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, Xun You, and Chen Qun knew exactly why Xun Zhen wanted to call her fellow villagers to Xuzhou, and they all agreed.

In fact, they agreed that Xun Zhen called Yingchuan scholars to Xu, not only out of public interest, but also selfish.

Although they all have unsuitable talents, they are also human beings, and human beings will naturally have seven emotions and six desires. Among the famous scholars in Yingchuan, most of them are their acquaintances. Of course, they all hope to have more acquaintances from this county to come to Xunzhen's account. First, they know their foundation and know their talents. Second, they are responsible for public affairs. In addition, you can also make friends with two or three of them, travel together or drink, chat with local accents, speak and laugh freely, and it is also a quick thing.

Chen Qun said with a smile: "I have been away from home for many years, and I haven't seen Zixu and Boran for a long time, and I am very thirsty. Since the general wants to invite the scholars from Yingchuan to enter Xu, I should write to these two gentlemen and invite them both to come. ."

Zixu was Du Xi; Bo Ran was Zhao Yan.

Du Xi and Zhao Yan, and also Xin Ping, were called "Xin, Chen, Du, Zhao" in the same famous county as Chen Qun. Chen Qun was a man of good manners, elegant and friendly, and he made friends with many scholars of the same generation in the county. Du Xi and Zhao Yan were among the best.

These two are also old acquaintances of Xun Zhen. When Xun Zhen was a Qiang husband in Xixiang, there was a year when the prefect of Yin practiced spring, and there were many Jun Yan in the county. Du Xi and Zhao Yan were all on the list. Xun Zhen met them at that time, and it was a long time .

It's just that the former Xixiang Qiangfu is now the Xuzhou shepherd, but Du Xi and Zhao Yan have not yet made their official careers.

Xun Yu said: "It's a pity that Yuan Chang traveled westward from the Son of Heaven, and he was not in Yingchuan, so he couldn't be summoned. Otherwise, if Yuan Chang came, Xuzhou would have no worries!"

Yuan Chang was Zhong Yao. Zhong Yao followed the emperor to Chang'an and now serves in the court.

Xi Zhicai said: "The general was in Yingchuan in the past, and Li Xuan was quite famous as the general. Although this person is not highly capable, he is a post-famous master, and he also has talents in the prefecture and state. Now we can call him."

Li Xuan is Li Ying's grandson, and his father Li Zan is now the Prime Minister of Dongping. When Xun Zhen was the postal governor of the county in Yingchuan, he traveled to the northern counties of the county, killing violence and eradicating evil, and his reputation was greatly enhanced. He passed through Xiangcheng, and Li Xuan greeted him at the county boundary. At that time, Xi Zhicai and Li Both Bo and Xuankang were by Xun Zhen's side, and the three of them were pleasantly surprised by Xun Zhen, because Xun Zhen's reputation was not yet known, but Li Xuan, the grandson of "the world's model Li Yuanli", unexpectedly arrived. The county border greeted her with a broom, which obviously would greatly help boost Xun Zhen's reputation.

After that, Xun Zhen and Li Xuan maintained relatively close contacts and contacts. Until now, Xun Zhen and Li Xuan often communicated by letters.

Xi Zhicai suggested that Xun Zhen call Li Xuanlai. Although he mentioned three reasons, the most important one is obviously the first reason, which is because "Li Xuanpo is famous as a general". Now that Xun Zhen is in charge of a state, he can repay Li Xuan's help back then. Through this kind of repayment, at the same time, Xun Zhen can also be famous again from the side, which shows that he attaches great importance to friendship and does not forget the people who have helped him in Wei Shi.

Xun Zhen agreed and said, "What Zhicai said is good. I often communicate with Li Jun in letters, and I see that his letter is in the right direction, and he has a lot of ambition to fight for the country's chaos. It is time to invite Xu to show his talents."

At the moment, Xun Zhen discussed with Xun Yu and the others and decided on a list of scholars from Yingchuan.

According to the names of the scholars in Yingchuan on this list, either Xun Zhen wrote the letter personally, or Xun Yu and others wrote the letters separately. After the letter was written, the seal was sealed. Xun Zhen asked Chen Qun to prepare the gifts, and then sent the letter. Send people to Yingchuan to hire them separately.

After finishing the matter, Xun Yu said: "It is certainly appropriate to hire scholars from my county to come to Xu, but the general is now a Xuzhou shepherd after all, and it is not good to use only people from this county, and we need to hire some local Xuzhou. When scholars enter the government, they will not cause resentment from the people of the state."

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "Not only do I want to hire Xuzhou scholars to enter the palace, but I also want to hire some other scholars to enter the palace!"

"Oh? I wonder who the generals are interested in hiring?"

"Pengcheng Zhang Zibu, Dongcheng Lu Zijing, Dongguan Xu Jicai, Langya Zhuge Jin, these are the people I need to use."

Zhang Zibu is Zhang Zhao; Lu Zijing is Lu Su; Xu Jicai is Xu Yi; Zhuge Jin is nineteen this year and has not yet acquired a character, so Xun Zhen called him by his name. These people, Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, and Xu Yi, were known to Xun Zhen when he was in Guangling. Although Zhuge Jin's reputation is not yet obvious, Xun Zhen knew this person in his previous life, and his younger brother was Zhuge Liang. So now that he is a shepherd in Xuzhou, he must be called.

Xun Yu and others heard the names of these people. Although they didn't know who Zhuge Jin was, Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, and Xu Yi all knew.

Zhang Zhao is as famous as Zhao Yu and Wang Lang. The three are good friends. Tao Qian once called him a talented man, but he rejected him. Tao Qian thought he despised him, so he took him to prison. Fortunately, Zhao Yuqing After being rescued, he was released. Now living in Pengcheng home.

Lu Su is much younger than Zhang Zhao. He is only in his early twenties this year. His family is rich, but he does not manage the property. Instead, he sells the land and sells the land. His home is in the East City of Xiapi, not far from Guangling, so although he is young, Xun Yu and others have heard of his reputation as a scholar of wealth and wealth.

Xu Yi's family belonged to the Dongguan gentry. He was stern and trustworthy and had a high reputation. Xun Yu and others also heard about it.

Xun Yu then said, "Although I don't know who Zhuge Jin is, Zhang Zibu, Lu Zijing, and Xu Jicai are all virtuous people in the prefecture and prefecture. It's okay, I just wonder if Zhang Zibu will come to the call?”

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "It's up to you whether you should be called or not."

"The general wants to send me to hire them?"

"Exactly. Feiqing is here in person, so I can't show my sincerity. Would you like me to invite Zhang Zibu?"

Xun Yu said: "The rise and fall of the country depends only on the virtuous. Since the general wants to show his sincerity, why is Yu unwilling? I would like to hire a virtuous person for the general."

Xun You asked: "These four people are all from Xuzhou, and the general said that they will hire people from other states. I don't know who they are?"

"Pingyuan Huaziyu, Donglai Taishi Ziyi, Jiujiang Zhou Youping, Beihai Sun Gongyou, these four people are also the ones I must call."

Hua Ziyu is Hua Xin; Taishi Ziyi is Taishi Ci; Zhou Youping is Zhou Tai; Sun Gongyou is Sun Gan.

Of the famous people during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, many Xun Zhen only knew their names, but did not know their places of origin. Among the four Hua Xin, Hua Xin was the one he had seen before, and the North Sea was adjacent to Xuzhou, so Xun Zhen knew the birthplace of the two. As for Taishi Ci and Zhou Tai, because they were military generals who had illustrious names left in later generations, he was one of the few who knew both their names and places of origin.

Xun Yu and others only knew of Hua Xin and Sun Gan, but had never heard of Taishi Ci and Zhou Tai.

Xun Zhen did not explain much.

He said to Chen Qun, "I heard that Hua Ziyu is now in Nanyang, Changwen, so I will trouble you to write a letter and call for me."

Hua Xin once taught Chen Yu, so Xun Zhen asked Chen Qun to write to him. Hua Xin, Guan Ning, and Bing Yuan are collectively called "One Dragon". All three of them had studied under Chen Yu, and Xun Zhen got to know them because of this. It was only after inquiries that Guan Ning and Bing Yuan were not in Beihai. But to avoid the Yellow Turbans, I went to Liaodong~www.mtlnovel.com~ the road was too far, and the Yellow Turbans blocked it, so I could not recruit for a while. In fact, Guan Ning and Bing Yuan's temperament is different from Hua Xin, and they tend to be first-class hermits. Therefore, even if Xun Zhen recruits, they may not be able to recruit them.

During the Zhongping period, the general He Jin was in charge and summoned a group of famous people to Beijing, including Zheng Tai, Xun Shuang, etc. Hua Xin was also one of them. After arriving in Luoyang, he was awarded the post of Shangshulang. In the first year of Chuping, that is, the year before, Dong Zhuo moved the emperor to Chang'an. Hua Xin knew that Chang'an had no place to stay, so he asked him to serve as the commander, but he didn't take the post, because he was sick, and went to Nanyang, where he was used by Yuan Shu. until now.

Yuan Shu was not the master of the human being, and when he was begging Dong, Xun Zhen heard that Hua Xin had persuaded Yuan Shu to march into Luoyang, but Yuan Shu did not listen. Therefore, Xun Zhen expected that Hua Xin's talent and knowledge would not be willing to stay under Yuan Shu's hand for a long time. If you send a letter to the group, it is very likely that he will be dug over.

Chen Qun has no reason to refuse.

After identifying the scholars and heroes from Xuzhou and other states to be recruited, Xun Zhen asked Xun Yu and others to deal with them separately.

Xun Yu was in charge of sending people to invite scholars from Yingchuan County, and personally went to invite Zhang Zhao. Xi Zhicai personally selected suitable candidates to invite Lu Su, Xu Yi, and Zhuge Jin from the state. Chen Qun wrote a letter to Hua Xin and sent people to invite Yang Xu and Gao Tanglong. Xun You was responsible for sending people to invite Taishi Ci, Zhou Tai, and Sun Gan from other states.
