29, Zhongneng diligently serve Wang Changshi
Jia Xu politely declined Yan Xing’s recruitment!
This made Yan Xing, who was very interested, feel a little embarrassed, and the atmosphere in the room became tense.
To be fair, Jia Xu, who once refused to be granted a title of marquis and rewarded with two thousand stones, is now an ordinary scholar who has no official title.
As the highest-ranking assistant in the General's Mansion of the Cavalry, only Yan Su, who had made great contributions to Hedong, could serve as the chief minister under Yan Xing's command.
Regarding Jia Xu, Yan Xing gave the position of the chief of the marching commander of the General of the Cavalry, only the position in the palace of the General of the Cavalry was Yanshu. If it was a marching war, Jia Xu, who was in the military staff, was even higher than that of Xi Zhicai, who served as a military advisor, and Xun You and the other two.
But although Jia Xu knew this, he still declined.
In his words, how could he be the commander of the marching commander who was growing taller and increasingly confused by the horses, and how could he be the commander of the marching commander of the cavalry?
Moreover, the Luoyang imperial court issued an edict to summon virtuous people from all over the world to the capital, but the General Cavalry Office eliminated all the top talents into the palace, which may attract more scholars and people to criticize Yan Xing for hostage and acts of showing kindness and power.
Although Jia Xu is useless, he still has some reputation. He believes that he can help General Cavalry at this point and is willing to enter the palace to serve the emperor by his side. This will not only help General Cavalry to correct the emperor's mistakes, but also reduce those remarks that are not conducive to Yan Xing's rule.
After hearing Jia Xu's words, Yan Xing remained silent and thought seriously about what Jia Xu said with a calm face.
Jia Xu did not enter the General's Mansion of the Cavalry, but instead entered the palace to serve the imperial edict. There are advantages and disadvantages for the overall situation, but the more important ones, it is not possible to make a conclusion lightly for a while.
Moreover, Jia Xu is also a person who is a senior. In addition to being the chief magistrate, most of the time he held officials in the court, not close assistants under Dong Zhuo or Li Jue. Even when necessary, he would be ill and return the seals granted by the court.
Although the powerful ministers were strong, they could be replaced one after another. Although the Han emperor was humiliated, they were still the Han emperor. Jia Xu understood this point, so he had experienced many court coups, but he was still able to protect himself and move forward and retreat freely.
Living to Jia Xu's age, coupled with his talent and experience, he will no longer be easily obstructed by fame, wealth, wealth and women. He will not choose to stand in a rash way until the situation is clear and everything is settled.
Yan Xing could also feel this from Xun You. Although he is still guarding the emperor in the old capital, he is in charge of the government affairs, but with Dong Zhuo and Li Jue's past, people in the world still have mixed opinions on their attitudes towards him.
This doesn't matter whether it is a speculative trick, it is just a rational choice of the wise in troubled times. Just like the Pei family of Hedong, who is now a family with him, was close to him when he only controlled half of the territory of Hedong, but he was not clear about serving himself.
In the end, Yan Xing agreed to Jia Xu's request. He would submit a petition to recommend the wise and ask the emperor to summon Jia Xu to the palace as the attendant, but he also arranged for Jia Xu a title of participating in the military of the General's Mansion. When necessary, it is necessary to ask Jia Xu, the old fox, to give him advice.
After solving Hongnong's whereabouts with Jia Xu, Yan Xing was involved in busy military and political affairs again in a blink of an eye.
Among them, the most important thing is naturally Li Jue's military campaign in the west and recapturing Guanzhong.
When wheat is harvested in May and summer grain is put into storage in June, Yan Xing will submit a report to the court, asking the imperial court to grant the imperial decree to the general Duan Wei, the emperor, to command the army to the west to Guanzhong, and to attack the rebel Li Jue who was surviving in Chang'an City.
Although the advancement after the autumn can reduce a lot of burden for the Sanhe military and civilians, in order to prevent Ma Teng, who is tall and fat in autumn, Han Sui intervened heavily in Guanzhong. Yan Xing had to send troops early and control the Sansui's place first.
In order to avoid the outbreak of the disease in the military, the rear needs to make a lot of preparations in advance. To formulate a strategy for the Western Expedition Army, the military advisors also need to do their homework in advance. These things are unscathing. Yan Xing is already ready to leave Beijing and go to Hedong to personally command and prepare for the rear of the Western Expedition Army.
···
Luoyang City, Inn.
As the envoy of Yanzhou to visit the emperor, Wang Bi was kneeling in front of the desk in the inner room and writing quickly.
Loyal to Cao Cao and diligent in official affairs, in addition to taking advantage of the convenience of visiting the court to contact all the indignant ministers and ministers in the court, he also had to take the opportunity to explore the sentiments from other envoys from Guandong prefectures and counties who came to Luoyang City and explore the attitude of the pastoral guards of other prefectures and counties in Guandong to treat the current Luoyang court.
As for the rest of the time, Wang Bi did not dare to slack off for a moment. He had to write all the inside stories he had discovered from Luoyang City into the letters in a good way, and report them in time and in detail to Cao Cao who had returned to Yanzhou.
This involves the information conveyed by the ministers and ministers in the court, and also includes the attitude of the pastoral guards of other prefectures and counties in Guandong to treat the Luoyang court.
Judging from the attitude of Guandong Prefecture and County towards the Luoyang court, as far as Wang Bi knows, the Luoyang court under the control of Yan Xing, who was born in the Liangzhou army, was not very popular with the pastoral guards of other prefectures and counties in Guandong.
Although Yuan Shao from Yecheng sent an envoy, he did not come to meet the emperor, but came to contact Yan Xing, who was in the Three Rivers. After all, the two sides had a brief military confrontation before. Although there would be no fierce military conflicts for the time being due to the different directions of military use between the two sides, it was still necessary to have strong neighbors on the side to properly release goodwill and eliminate existing misunderstandings.
Yuan Shu in Huainan is said to have shown an unjust attitude in his words and deeds after hearing the Chang'an court's eastward hunt. Therefore, although Huainan has revived its momentum recently, he has not sent envoys to come and showed a disdainful attitude towards the Luoyang court.
Liu Bei of Xuzhou claimed to be a declining Han clan. Logically speaking, envoys should be sent to Beijing to meet the emperor. However, this year, Xuzhou has been in constant war. First, Xia Pi was led by Lu Bu, who was exiled in Xuzhou, and then was defeated by Yuan Shu's army in Guangling. Liu Bei drifted and lost his home. He still didn't know whether it was life or death. In addition, Lu Bu, who succeeded Xuzhou, and the Xiliang army, Yan Xing had a great grudge, so he naturally would not send envoys to Beijing to meet.
As for the Muslim guards of Yangzhou counties, they were in a melee at this time, and no one seemed to have the heart to pay attention to the changes in the Central Plains, so no one sent an envoy to Beijing to meet the emperor.
After all, in Guandong, there are only two forces who recognize the Luoyang court under Yan Xing's control and send envoys to the capital to meet the emperor in a regular manner.
One is Cao Cao from Yanzhou, and the other is Liu Biao from Jingzhou.
Compared to Yanzhou's brief expression, Liu Biao from Jingzhou seemed rich and powerful. I don't know what Zhao Qi, the maid who was sent to Jingzhou, had discussed with Liu Biao. This time, Liu Biao sent envoys to Beijing, not only to transport food and grass, but also to transport timber, a large number of civil servants and craftsmen were sent to help the emperor build the Luoyang palace, but also accompanied an army of two thousand horses.
Unfortunately, this army of 2,000 troops cannot change the situation where Yan Xing's family dominates the world in Luoyang City and covers the sky with one hand. After the arrival of Jingzhou's troops, they can only camp outside the city, and will always be monitored by Hedong soldiers. It is obvious that these 2,000 troops cannot cause any trouble in Luoyang City.
However, from the small, you can see the big ones, and you can see the whole leopard with a glimpse. Wang Bi also saw the subtle situation in the Luoyang court from the series of actions of Liu Biao, a relative of the Han Dynasty.
In Luoyang City, although Yan Xing's power was a siege, the emperor and ministers in the court were not willing to be a puppet with peace of mind. Recalling the past few earth-shaking coups of the Chang'an court, Wang Bi knew that his own side had come.
The more unwilling the emperor and the ministers were, the more they wanted to rely on external forces to intervene in order to get rid of Yan Xing's control. This can be seen from the contacts with ministers in the court in the past two days.
The ministers were ready to move and secretly fought with Yan Xing, who was in charge of the court, which was of great help to Cao Cao's next actions.
Thinking of this, Wang Bi was even more excited. He suppressed his inner excitement and speeded up his hands, wanting to write all of this into the letter and report it to Cao Cao one by one.
At this moment, the door of the inner room was opened with a creaking sound.
ps: As the chief of Cao Cao's dominance, the unfamous king in history must play a significant role in Cao Cao's camp and is also one of Cao Cao's most trusted confidants.
