Chapter 828: Liu Yu's Advice
However, in the current environment where official titles and titles are firmly controlled by the nobles, many soldiers killed the enemy with meritorious service and gained nothing, so Zhao Yun became a legend.
Just like Lu Bu, who made countless achievements in the national war, only received a verbal commendation from Ding Yuan, and did not even receive an increase in salary. Looking at the smiling faces of Qin Ge's generals, he felt even more unhappy.
Lu Bu is still aloof, but his strength has improved dramatically after the battle with Yeon Gaesumun, and he has reached the fourth level of the Holy Order. The vague and terrifying aura on his body makes it difficult for people to approach him at all.
As soon as Lu Bu appeared, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei leaned towards Qin Ge as if they were nothing.
Lu Bu's eyes fell on the Pegasus that Zhao Yun was sitting on, and with a stiff smile on his lips he said, "This horse is a good match for you!"
Lu Bu's words made people a little confused, and then he said in a stiff tone: "I look forward to your growth as soon as possible, but with the help of this Pegasus, you have the capital to fight me!" This sentence was heard in the ears of others,
Totally provocative.
However, Zhao Yun said solemnly: "When you find a good horse, I hope to fight you if I have the chance!"
Hearing this, Lu Bu laughed and said, "No! I want to try it with you now. With Pegasus' blessing, you might be able to have more fun with me! Let me vent my anger!"
Qin Ge heard Zhao Yun say that Lu Bu obviously came to provoke the grievances between the two sects of Tianmen and Luanshi, but Zhao Yun, who had always been modest, actually nodded and accepted the appointment and said: "After the banquet, in the barren mountains thirty miles away from Jizhou City, I look forward to
Fight with you!"
Qin Ge had seen Lu Bu's terror on the battlefield. Even though Zhao Yun now has the blessing of Pegasus and can compete with the holy generals, Zhao Yun is still no match for Lu Bu at this time.
Upon hearing Qin Ge's inquiry, Zhao Yun chuckled and said: "Don't worry, my lord, there is no murderous intent in his eyes. It's just an ordinary sparring match. Don't worry too much!"
And Zhao Yun's eyes were full of expectations. The battle with Yeon Gaesumun had given Zhao Yun a desire to become stronger. Being able to compete with strong men like Lu Bu was the best way to grow in martial arts. He wanted to use
Lu Bu came to sharpen himself.
Lu Bu had such a temper. Zhang Liao was afraid of provoking conflicts, so he came to persuade him.
After hearing Zhao Yun's words, Qin Ge finally felt relieved, exchanged a few words with Zhang Liao, and walked into the city lord's mansion together.
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are organizing Jushou, Shenpei, Xin Ping and other celebrities to go around to welcome the guests.
Seeing Qin Ge walking in with a large army, Yuan Shao quickly led his people to greet him. When he saw Qin Ge, he smiled and said: "Bo Xi! Among us, your team is the strongest. Now it is really...
The troops are strong and the horses are strong, and the momentum is huge!"
Qin Ge shook his head humbly and said: "Ben Chu is making fun of me again. My brothers can be promoted to high positions only because of the support of the general. Bringing the brothers over to meet the general will also add some blessings!
"
Hearing that Qin Ge was getting better and better at talking, Yuan Shao was secretly convinced.
"Haha! I must be blessed with this blessing. I also came to meet Boxi's group of brothers who are capable of fighting!" A hearty laugh came, and He Miao walked over with a body full of fat.
Yuan Shao recognized the interest and stepped aside, and Qin Ge chatted with He Miao for a while.
He Miao turned sideways and whispered in Qin Ge's ear: "Bo Xi! Do you still have that sobering mat..."
Qin Ge looked embarrassed when he heard this and said: "General, that thing is a rare thing, the only one in the world, I..."
He Miao said with a pity look on his face: "You don't know something. After getting the sobering blanket, my eldest brother is singing and singing every night, but his body is getting stronger day by day. It makes me feel hot when I see him. Now I carry this blanket wherever I go."
There, I almost never leave my body, I can’t even borrow it for two days!”
Qin Ge was speechless when he heard this. He Jin became more and more dissolute. Is he also responsible?
Qin Ge changed the subject and introduced the generals to He Miao.
Xun You followed Cao Cao closely, and took advantage of the gap to run behind the crowd and grab Xun Chen and said: "Brother-in-law, you ran to Jizhou silently, and the whole family was in turmoil. Fifth Grandpa wrote me seven letters.
, let me take you back to the clan no matter what! This time you return to the clan, think of a way to avoid punishment! Be mentally prepared! But you will definitely be grounded!"
There was a hint of schadenfreude in Xun You's tone. After all, Xun Chen was an eccentric elf who was more than ten years younger than him. He used his status as an elder to bully him every time. When he saw that he was going to suffer this time, he almost didn't laugh out loud.
Xun Chen's proud head was raised to the sky, and the corners of his mouth were full of disdain. He glanced at Xun You and said, "What position do you hold now?"
Xun You was confused and said: "Now I am joining the army under the command of Xiyuan School Captain. After this meritorious service, I can get the position of Chief Secretary!"
Xun Chen sneered disdainfully: "I am just a small chief registrar, and you are not qualified to talk to me! Let me tell you, I will succeed Qingzhou County soon, and I am on the same level as your immediate boss Cao Mengde. I
I want to do important things for the court. I just happened to write a letter. You can take it home for me and tell the family that since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be balanced. Now I want to be loyal to the court. This is a great righteousness and follows the loyalty of the Xun family.
Serving the country and benefiting the world are our ancestral precepts!"
As he spoke, he took out a letter from his sleeve with his nostrils turned upward, and patted it on Xun You, who was stunned.
Xun You stared at Xun Chen in disbelief with his eyes wide open. This Qin Ge was really generous and courageous. He actually let a young man who had not yet been crowned serve as a county official.
However, thinking that Qingzhou was like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, Xun You suddenly became very anxious. He grabbed Xun You's sleeve and said quickly: "Now Qingzhou is simply a pit of fire. This high-ranking official is not rich and generous. He is simply going to die!"
Xun Chen's face perked up when he heard this and said: "Are we hiding just because there is danger? Are the people in the Xun family all such ungrateful people? Qingzhou is a pit of fire, but if others can go through fire and water for loyalty, is it possible?
Can’t the Xun family’s children do the same? Your thoughts are simply a disgrace to the Xun family. Have you read into the dog’s belly the ancestral precepts of serving the country and the people?”
Xun You blushed when Xun Chen refuted him, lowered his head and said yes again and again, and then left in disgrace, not daring to advise Xun Chen to return to his clan.
When Cao Cao saw that Xun You was in disgrace, he couldn't help but look at Xun Chen carefully and said, "I have underestimated you before. You are so bold and energetic. You are especially proficient in the art of vertical and horizontal. I used to follow those romantic people in Luoyang."
Yashi was quarreling and arguing, and I thought he was the kind of thorny, provocative, and pushy person. I didn't expect that during this national war, he assisted Boxi and dealt with various forces in Jizhou, and was able to persuade all parties to fully support Bobi.
Xi fought against the Goryeo Tartars, and his mouth alone was worth a million soldiers. This boy is a genius!"
Xun You said with some embarrassment: "My brother-in-law's mouth sometimes makes even my third uncle speechless. However, the art of vertical and horizontal has always been a small thing and can't be brought to the stage. The elders in the family asked him to follow his third uncle to cultivate his character in Luoyang."
, I don’t know why I got mad, but now I am following General Qin with all my heart, and General Qin dares to use him, and directly enfeoffs him to work in a county, and now he doesn’t even look at me seriously!”
"Haha!" Cao Cao burst into laughter when he heard this. Xun You was so alert and changeable that he didn't expect to be suppressed by a child with a yellow mouth. However, he then said seriously: "Qin Ge is unique in knowing people. He promoted Xun Chen in the line of fire. This is why I
I feel inferior to myself! Don’t worry! Qin Boxi’s advisers and generals are not easy to take lightly. If you follow him, you may be in danger but not in danger. After going through hardships, you may be able to achieve a great career in the future."
Qin Ge was pulled by He Miao towards the city lord's palace, and several sergeants were sent to greet Zhao Yun and other generals to sit according to their seats.
Qin Ge was invited to sit on the right side of General He Jin, sitting next to He Jin. On the left, the leader of Youzhou Shepherd Liu Yu was walking tremblingly with the support of his son Liu He. Qin Ge could not help but
If you dare to be lazy, come forward and take the initiative to greet me.
Seeing Qin Ge coming over, Liu Yu's cloudy eyes became a little brighter. He pulled Qin Ge and sighed: "Bo Xi! I originally strongly advocated for you to be the governor of Youzhou, but..."
Qin Ge saw Liu He's face and smiled unnaturally and said: "Young Master He is smart and strong, and he will definitely be able to lead Youzhou. Bandits are rampant in Qingzhou now. If they are not eradicated, they may spread to the Han Dynasty like the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Qin is not talented, but there is a certain
Courage and courage..."
When Liu Yu heard this, he said with emotion: "I don't mean to blame you at all. On the contrary, Boxi, you can abandon the prosperity and wealth and risk your life and death again to relieve the danger of my great Han Dynasty. You are better than those noble officials in the court who are scheming and eating nothing."
It would be a hundred times better if you were a disciple of my clan! Speaking of Youzhou, Gongsun Zan is a wolf in the snowfields, and even I can't control it. I hope that you, a fierce tiger, can suppress him and let him be used by my big man.
Now Gongsun Zan is taking credit and is proud of himself. I know this son of mine, and I am afraid that he will die tragically at the hands of Gongsun Zan in a few years!"
When Liu He heard Liu Yu's words, his face suddenly became a little ugly, but he didn't take his father's words seriously.
Liu Yu suddenly grabbed Qin Ge's hand and said: "I know that I am going to die soon, Boxi! I know you are a kind person. If anything happens to He'er in the future, I hope you can take care of him for my sake.
, I can rest in peace in heaven! Why are you still standing here, not thanking Boxi!"
Liu Yu shouted sharply at his indifferent son behind him.
Liu He knelt down reluctantly and bowed to Qin Ge. For this guy who was younger than him, Liu He felt a thousand dissatisfaction and ten thousand dissatisfaction in his heart.
Qin Ge was about to grab Liu He who was bowing down, when laughter came from behind the screen and said: "Uncle Liu Huang, you are the pillar of the Han clan. Now the Han clan is guarding one side, and it is very powerful! Those of us born in the Han Dynasty are very powerful.
You son of a poor family, when do you want to humiliate me like this? The sun is shining in the west!"
He Jin had a conflict of interest with the Han clan. This time he was almost tricked by these guys because he added Jiuxi in the court, so the conflict has become public.
Moreover, as He Jin made great achievements, he became more and more arrogant, and looked down upon this old, dying, and half-dead imperial uncle.
Liu He's face turned red when he heard this, but Liu Yu said calmly: "Bo Xi and I are old friends, just catching up on old times and keeping in touch with each other!"
He Jin looked at Liu Yu who was standing tremblingly. He couldn't argue with a half-dead man who was about to die. He came over and patted Qin Ge on the shoulder and said: "Bo Xi, you are the protagonist of this banquet tonight.
I will announce the appointment of the imperial court at the banquet! And the inauguration tokens of the generals!"
Qin Ge was overjoyed when he heard this, because soon he would lead his troops back to his territory. If he could cash in the reward at this time, he could plan his plans in advance.
He Jin came out and greeted the generals respectively. Liu Yu whispered in Qin Ge's ear: "He Jin is hot-tempered and arrogant. He has the same achievements as Liang Ji back then. However, without Liang Ji's strategy, there has been a vague formation in the court."
The alliance of forces that opposes him is likely to perish in an instant, so Boxi must keep a distance from them to avoid the disaster of Chiyu!"
As an important minister of the three dynasties and the Zongzheng of the Han Dynasty clan, Liu Yu had deep roots in the court and was well versed in the undercurrents of the court. This was a reminder and advice to Qin Ge.
Qin Ge nodded noncommittally, then returned to his seat and sat down. Now he did not want to be a tool in any power struggle, and he won the honor by virtue of He Jin's promotion.
Qin Ge is He Jin's confidant, which is the foundation of his status in the Han Dynasty. After he has secured his seat in Qingzhou, he may be qualified to choose his side.
Seeing Qin Ge taking the initiative to keep a distance from Liu Yu, He Jin, who was not far away, showed a satisfied smile and announced the start of the banquet.
Immediately, a group of servants began to serve the banquet. The table was full of imperial wine and delicacies, which dazzled Liao Hua, Deng Zhi and others. The fine wines and ingredients here were all tributes brought by He Jin from the palace, and they were all Xuanpin treasures.
.
If you eat this table of delicacies, it will be of great benefit to your skills and strength. Sun Guan couldn't help but wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
Deng Zhi joked: "Tsk tsk! If you can eat and drink so much every day, then everyone will not become a god general!"
Xun Chen knew something about the affairs of the court, and smiled and spread the word to the generals: "This is a state banquet given by the emperor to the general. Even the emperor cannot eat those dragon liver, phoenix and gallbladder several times a year! Of course, this time everyone
Don’t be polite, this thing is more effective than any panacea! The reason why the comprehensive strength of the aristocratic family is so strong is because it relies on these resources!"
The generals couldn't help but swallow their saliva after hearing the words, staring at the table full of delicacies, waiting for the general's order to start the banquet.
He Jin was sitting at the banquet, looking at a group of generals whispering, and sighed to Qin Ge beside him: "Bo Xi! Seeing these brothers of yours reminds me of the past, when I attended the state banquet for the first time.
With such performance, the reason why I invited the generals with official titles this time is to let the brothers under your command who were born in poor families come over and experience it, and also to show those wealthy noble families that we, the children of poor families, can also leap over the dragon gate and soar into the sky.
!”
He Jin's intention to win over Qin Ge and the generals has been very obvious.
After hearing this, Qin Ge left the table and saluted the general: "On behalf of the brothers, I would like to thank the general for your kindness!"
He Jin stood up, helped Qin Ge up, took out a brocade box from his arms and said, "The Empress has given you another True Dragon Golden Pill! She only has three words to comment on you, 'Good! Good! Good!'"
From today on we are a family!"
He Jin made great achievements in the national war. Under the strong promotion of He Mi and Zhang Rang, he wanted to confer the title of Jiuxi. The court initially met with collective opposition, and even the emperor was hesitant to decide.
However, Qin Ge used retreat to advance and took the initiative to enlist in Qingzhou, which was regarded as a powerful force to boost He Jin.
When He Mi saw that Qin Ge was not only loyal and fearless, but also had unfathomable strategies, she became dependent on him.
