Chapter 250 The tide surges in Xuzhou(1/2)

Chapter 250 Xuzhou turbulent

Xuzhou, Xia Pi, Governor's Mansion.

Tao Qian held his forehead with his hands and leaned against the desk to sleep.

Suddenly, a rapid footsteps came, awakening Tao Qian.

"Hmm?"

Tao Qian looked up suddenly and saw his eldest son Tao Shang hurried in.

"Dad, everyone has been sent away!"

The Tao merchant, who looked a little panicked, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed. Seeing his frigidness awakened Tao Qian, who was resting, a trace of uneasiness flashed in his eyes.

"Oh, my dad is old and is useless. If you spend a little bit of energy, you will be in a difficult situation!"

Tao Qian, who was unwilling to accept his heart, sighed slightly and slowly sat upright.

"Come on, sit down too!"

Tao Qian rubbed his gloomy and stiff cheeks with both hands, pointed to the kneeling couch in front of him, his tone rarely being as gentle as the ground.

"This is where my father rests. The child dares not to overtake his father, just stand."

Seeing that Tao Qian's expression did not change, Tao merchant felt a little relieved.

"Dad didn't take his anger on me?"

"Didn't my father care at all that my younger brother was removed from General Guard and the title of Jinan Marquis?"

Tao Shang was confused and his attitude towards Tao Qian today changed, and he was confused for a moment.

"If you want to stand, then stand!"

Tao Qian shook his head secretly, not understanding why he was so arrogant when he sat in front of him.

However, Tao Qian felt relieved after thinking about it.

"Oh, pottery, it's still that pottery!"

Tao Qian's two sons were in the hearts of the world, one was foolish and incompetent, the other was mediocre, and the other was full of dandy and was harmless.

Since Tao Ying went to Taishan County, he was first appointed as the General of the Central Army by Emperor Ling, and then appointed as the General of the Guard and Marquis of Jinan. This instantly changed the world's view of Tao Ying, and his eyes were different when looking at the pottery merchant.

.

The scholars in Xuzhou even suspected that the Dow was using a strategy of keeping a secret.

"Do you have any ideas about your second brother being dismissed from General Wei and going to Jinan Marquis?"

As the news of the punishment of Tao Ying in Luoyang spread throughout Xuzhou, the Xuzhou surnames originally showed favor to the Tao family, and the powerful people separated from the Tao family. Many officials from the governor even resigned with the title and criticized them.

The prime minister of Pengcheng Xue Li, the prime minister of Langya Yinde and other counties and states publicly forced Tao Qian to resign as the governor of Xuzhou.

Xuzhou County and State engaged in Zhao Yu's illness and did not show up. Wang Lang, who had just returned from Qingzhou, simply gave up his son and stopped working. Cao Bao, a military officer, jumped up and down, which was very much like rushing Tao Qian to leave Xuzhou.

What made Tao Qian most dissatisfied was to stop Mi Zhu. Although the official report was immediately released to the governor's department and supported Tao Qian, Mi Zhu never made any public statement and let him go to the actions of all parties in Xuzhou.

"Uh, the child thinks Chongguang is a little impulsive, and shouldn't have used rash weapons at the foot of the emperor to scare the emperor!"

This is what the pottery has heard of the ears. Tao Qian asked, and he opened his mouth without hesitation.

"Oh, I have no blood in my Danyang Tao family!"

Tao Qian's answer made Tao Qian feel a little disappointed.

"If you have half of the blood and demeanor of Chongguang, why should I be afraid of the storm and storm!"

Tao Qian naturally cannot avoid the vulgarity of any father who is not looking for his son to become a dragon. At this moment, he is a little greedy for Sichuan.

"Do you want to learn from your younger brother and go to the army to serve?"

Tao Qian tried hard to show a conscious and warm smile, and his eyes were staring at Tao Shang.

"What?"

Tao Shang, who stood in front of Tao Qian and was silent for a long time, suddenly heard Tao Qian's inquiry, suddenly shivered, raised his head in surprise, looked at Tao Qian with incredible expression, trying to see if he was joking.

"Uh...that..."

"Dad, the child has never even killed a chicken since he was a child. He made the child charge, and... the child is difficult to compete..."

Tao Shang, who couldn't help but twitch, carefully dealing with Tao Qian with a serious look on his face, secretly complaining that Tao Qian is getting more and more confused as he gets older. It's just a joke to ask him to lead the troops.

"That's a war, not a hunting!"

"I don't do anything about keeping my head on the belt. I only like literary affairs, not martial arts!"

Tao Qian had expected the attitude of the Tao merchant, and there was no sign of disappointment in his turbid eyes.

"That's right, my son has no power to tie a chicken, so he is not suitable for fighting for power."

"I, Tao, there is an old man who has been on the battlefield for half his life, and then Chongguang goes on one after another. That's enough!"

Tao Qian touched his gray beard, pondered for a while, and slowly asked Tao merchant again.

"Recently, people in Xuzhou are in a state of turmoil. It is said that the government orders my father implemented in Xuzhou are contrary to the imperial court. Do you have any ideas?"

The topic changed from martial arts to political affairs, but the pottery still looked dull and shook his head.

"Brother, I have no idea!"

Tao Shang lowered his head and quickly curled his mouth at the invisible visual dead corner of Tao Qian.

"I, a pottery merchant, had no intention of wandering in the officialdom. He only liked to worry about fireworks and willow alleys, recite poems and write couplets, and call friends to have a banquet!"

Tao Qian sighed, his expression was very helpless.

"It's so straightforward...you're really true!"

The reason why Tao Qian taught his eldest son Tao merchant twice and twice was really that he was stimulated by his younger son Tao Ying.

Tao Ying's sudden change caught Tao Qian off guard. When he had not fully adapted to Tao Ying's changes, Tao Ying had soared into the sky; even if he fell to the bottom again, it was the glory of Tao.

Therefore, Tao Qian also wanted to see if his eldest son Tao Shang also had the potential of Tao Ying, and could he give him another miracle.

After all, Tao Ying and Tao Shang are all his own sons.

"Even if there are differences in brother qualifications, there shouldn't be too big, right?"

After a while of the exam, Tao Qian completely gave up on Tao Merchants.

Tao Qian was not disappointed, but just shook his head with a laugh and sighed inwardly that he was too greedy.

"Dad, I think that as the governor of a state, you should not offend these big surnames under your command. Only balance is the best strategy!"

Although Tao Qian's expression did not change much, Tao Qian's disappointment was still felt by Tao Qian.

Just as he was talking about something, a lightning flashed through his mind. Tao Shang instantly remembered a passage that Zhao Yu had said to him, and blurted out in order to save the weight in Tao Qian's heart.

"Oh? Is this what you think?"

The Tao merchant suddenly said slowly, causing Tao Qian to raise his white eyebrows slightly, and looked at the Tao merchant in surprise.

"Yeah..."

Although his face blushed and his heart beat, the pottery still nodded.

Tao Qian stroked his long beard and looked at Tao Shang seriously for a while, with a hint of praise and relief in his eyes.

"Okay, OK!"

"Then tell my dad, how to balance it?"

The Tao merchant quickly organized some words in his heart, mustered up the courage, and repeated Zhao Yu's words.

"Although the child rarely participates in political affairs, he understands some things through his daily understanding and observation."

"My father came to Xuzhou for the first time and wanted to take charge of Xuzhou. The most important thing was to rely on the local surnames and powerful people in Xuzhou, especially the Mi family, Cao family, Zhao family, and Wang family that my father recruited."

"The Mi family is in charge of money and food, Cao family is in charge of military affairs, Zhao family is in charge of household registration, and Wang family is in charge of officials, each of whom is in charge of their duties and balance each other."

Tao Qian, who was gently stroking his beard, still had his expression, and he did not object to the potter's words and signaled the potter to continue.

Tao Shang, who was secretly nervous in his heart, saw that Tao Qian's face had not changed, pursed his lips and continued his words.

"The child thinks that as long as my father ensures that the interests of the big surnames in Xuzhou are balanced and not biased, my father can be as stable as a rock in Xuzhou and rest assured!"

After waiting for a while, when he saw that the Taoist merchant stopped talking, Tao Qian, with a warm gaze, looked at the Taoist merchant nodded.

"Today's Little New Year is over, and it's not far from the New Year. My dad's night dreams of the ancestral grave is uneasy. Tomorrow, you will bring your wife and children back to Danyang. If you don't have your dad's letters to summon me, don't go back to Xia Pi!"

Tao Qian did not comment on the views of the pottery merchant, and he explained that the pottery merchant would return to Danyang without warning, and his tone was full of hesitation.

"You have been tired for a long time, go and have a rest. You have to hurry up early tomorrow!"

Although I don’t understand why Tao Ying was uneasy whenever he had something to do, the Tao merchant didn’t care at all and came out of Tao Qian’s study with relief.
