Chapter 106 Two Dragons

"Where the king and Hou Yiqi arrived, Lu Bu fled and the two counties surrendered, it is really a joy to congratulate!"

In the Yangxia Conference Hall, civil and military officials congratulated Chen Fei one after another.

More than 30,000 troops were sent, less than 200 losses were lost. One county and one country was expanded, with a total of 17 cities, gathering 180,000 households and more than 800,000 men and women. Such a record was brilliant enough!

Xun You, Guo Jia and others who returned one step ahead of time have already promoted the results of the battle. Even the two poems he wrote "hasten" in front of Cao Cao were already known to the whole city at this time.

For example, when Yuzhou Literature was engaged in Yuan Hui, his respect for him reached a higher level:

"I heard that Junhou had said 'establishing a heart for heaven and earth' before. Yuan thought it was a talented person under his command who was the one who was a man. Now that he heard that Junhou had written two wonderful poems in a hurry, Yuan realized that he was purely a villain's heart! Junhou had his own literary talent in his heart, which was really a gift for talent!"

Chen Fei waved his hand reservedly:

"It is mostly used to use allusions of sages, and it is not worth mentioning. I have been out of the war for nearly a month, so what about the counties and counties?"

Xu Shao, who was engaged in the governance of the Central Government, bowed and replied:

"June and lord are at ease. Most of the local counties are stable. However, there are Yellow Turban thieves in Nanyang and the people fled to Yingchuan and Runan. Officials have been sent to various counties to appease nearly 20,000 refugees. In addition, due to Tao Qian's death from illness, thousands of people in Xuzhou have moved to Pei State, and all have been resettled."

Chen Fei nodded in admiration:

"I govern the prefectures and counties with benevolence and righteousness, and the people naturally come to see the wind. By the way, I am looking for talents in Jiyin and Lu, but I am suffering from the lack of anyone available. Zi Jiang and Wen Xiu, both of them are the world's great men and famous all over the world. Maybe I will find talents for my own use?"

Xu Shao was obviously prepared and replied with a smile:

"Shao, as the ruler, should be divided into worries for the king and the lord. In these days, envoys have been sent to visit famous scholars and scholars from all over the country. There are more than ten wise men so far. This is a list, so I would like to ask the king and the lord to check it out."

Chen Fei couldn't wait to take it from Guo Shou, and the first name on the list was very familiar.

"Dong Zhao, whose courtesy name is Gongren, was from Dingtao in Jiyin. He was young and appointed as the chief of the eunuch. He was appointed as the chief of the eunuch. He was the ruler of the Jizhou Governor Yuan Shao was appointed as the army and later transferred to the prefect of Henoi Zhang Yang..."

He couldn't help but complain to Xun You and Guo Jia:

"Tell me, Jiyin has no talent? Is this Dong Zhao not a scholar?"

Guo Jia looked indifferent, but Xun You felt a little aggrieved.

Xu Shao quickly explained:

"Dong Zhao is not from a prominent family, and there is no big name in the countryside. If his brother Dong Fang had not been an official in Chenliu, Shao would not have known him."

Chen Fei nodded slightly:

"Dong Visit...I don't seem to have any impression of this person?"

Xun You, who followed him to fight for Chenliu, explained:

"He was originally under Zhang Miao's command. After Zhang Miao died, he was dependent on the king and the lord. This person is not talented and intelligent, and now he serves as the supervisor in the county."

Chen Fei suddenly realized:

"Since Dong Zhao has been a county magistrate, he might as well be appointed as the county magistrate or chief minister, or... it is not impossible for the prime minister of Pei State."

——Anyway, the current prime minister of Peiguo Shu Shao is not his confidant.

Xu Shao bowed slightly:

"Yes, Dong Jie has been entrusted to send a letter to his brother, and I believe there will be a reply soon."

Chen Fei lowered his head and continued reading:

"Huang Ju, whose courtesy name is Wencheng, was a poor family in Liang State. He was the chief of Guanjin during the reign of Emperor Ling, and was known as honest. Later, Yuan Shao entered Jizhou and resigned and returned home."

"Guo Peng, whose courtesy name is Zifeng, was from Peiguo. He was a branch of the Guo family in Yingchuan. His father was appointed as the county magistrate and passed on his family through Xiao Dulu. He was appointed as the county magistrate of Guyang during the reign of Emperor Ling. He was famous and later resigned from his post due to disaster."

"Fan Hao, whose courtesy name is Zhongbo, was a poor family in Runan. He was the younger brother of Fan Pang, who was famous for his filial piety and did not enter the prefectures and counties."

"Zhu Ling, whose courtesy name is Boyu, was a poor family in Runan. He was once a county clerk. He had strong integrity and was abandoned by the former county magistrate."

"Ying Yan, whose courtesy name is Delian, was from Nandun, Runan. His father was Ying Shao, the former governor of Taishan County. Shao fled to Jizhou. He was very filial to his mother at home and was also good at literature."

"Heqia, whose courtesy name is Yang Shi, was from Xiping, Runan. He was appointed as a filial and honest person. He Jin and Yuan Shao did not arrive in the expedition and vassals, avoided the chaos of Jingzhou and did not serve as Liu Biao."

"Du Xi, whose courtesy name is Zixu, was from Dingling, Yingchuan. He was as famous as Chen Qun, Zhao Yan and Xinpi, and was the grandson of Du Gen, the prefect of Jiyin. He avoided the chaos of Jingzhou and was very polite to Liu Biao, but Du Xi did not take office many times."

"Du Ji, whose courtesy name is Ziju, was the brother of Du Xi. He was talented and famous for his filial piety. He was a clerk who guarded the leadership of the army and avoided the chaos of Jingzhou and did not serve as Liu Biao."

"Zhao Yan, whose courtesy name is Boran, was a famous scholar in Yangdi, Yingchuan. He has been familiar with classics and history since he was a child. He was strong and resolute. He avoided chaos in Jingzhou and did not serve as Liu Biao."

"Fan (pronounced ‘Po’) Qin, whose courtesy name is Xiubo, was a poor family in Yingchuan. He was good at writing poetry and fu, and was well-known for his articles. During the Chuping period, he avoided the chaos in Jingzhou and did not serve as Liu Biao."

After watching it, Chen Fei couldn't help but smile:

"There are no vain scholars under the reputation, and my husband will not deceive me! I claim to be based on Yingchuan and Runan, but I don't know that there are still so many scholars in these two counties who have not served in office! I also ask Mr. to recruit scholars from all walks of life for me. After my success, I should submit to the court for my husband, and the position of marquis can also be expected!"

No wonder he was so happy. Among these ten people, except for Du Ji, nine others were all talented. I can’t guarantee anything else. I can be a county magistrate, literature, chief clerk, Gongcao and other official positions!

What made Chen Fei even happier was that among these scholars, the gentry and poor families each accounted for, which solved the problem of the monopoly of official positions in famous families to a certain extent!

Of course, when Chen Fei saw several scholars saying "Avoid chaos in Jingzhou and not serve Liu Biao", he couldn't help but shook his head and sigh for Liu Biao.

So many Central Plains gentry went to Jingzhou to avoid chaos. It clearly gave you a chance, but you, Liu Jingsheng, don’t know how to use it!

After receiving such praise from Chen Fei, he was named a marquis by Xu Nuo. Xu Shao glanced at Xu Jing opposite him and did not hide his complacent feelings:

"Shao naturally did his best to assist the government affairs of the prefectures and counties after being trusted by the king and the lord."

Of course, Chen Fei also noticed his gaze. He also knew about the conflict between the two dragons of the Xu family, but he did not intend to mediate.

Xu Shao and Xu Jing were famous all over the world. No matter where they went, they were the dignitaries of the state and the county magistrate, and were even more noble people who were scrambling to make friends with. If they were united, it would be enough to control most of the government affairs of Yuzhou. As the lord Chen Fei would have some concerns. Now they compete with each other and constrain each other, which may be the most balanced situation.

So he also decided to let Xu Jing have a sense of existence:

"After Mr. Wenxiu took office as the procuratorate, can he gain something?"

Xu Jing was responsible for picking up all officials and also in charge of prison sentences. This is equivalent to the combination of three major departments of discipline, supervision, procuratorial and court. If placed in later generations, it would definitely be a real power faction that scares everyone.

Chen Fei had already made a decision in his heart that as long as Xu Jing could find that several officials were inaction or made accurate judgments on several cases, he would strongly support and moderately reward them, thus forming a situation of "Xu's two dragons competing against each other".

But the development of things did not follow the script in his mind.

In front of more than 20 officials in the conference hall, Xu Jing stretched out his hands.

He did not salute Chen Fei, but took off his crown and hat directly!

Before the others could react, Xu Jing took action again, removed the official seal from his waist, and placed it on the desk in front of him!

Resignation on the spot?!

Chen Fei's face suddenly turned pale and he asked in a cold voice:

"Mr. Wenxiu, what does this mean? But Chen's lack of etiquette makes it difficult for the teacher to display his talents?"

Xu Jing then got up from the table, stepped into the middle of the hall, knelt down on his knees, and bowed deeply to the ground:

"Xu Jing is a villager who raises horses and grinds beans for people. He only has a little reputation. He is now living in the world and does not starve to death on the streets. Now he is wrongly loved by the king and the lord, and is entrusted to the position of the procuratorate. He originally wanted to devote his whole life to repay the king and the lord's kindness. Today he was especially exempted from the hat, just to impeach a confidant important official under the lord!"

Hearing his explanation, Chen Fei's face calmed down a little, but he also left the seat:

"Picking all officials is the master's job. No matter who impeaches, it is not necessary, otherwise others will think that Chen has no measure."

He glanced at Guo Jia and muttered a little in his heart.

There are only a few people under their command who can be called confidant officials.

Although Chu Liang is a veteran, he knows that his background is humble and has always been cautious.

Although Xun You has a little temper, he has extremely strict self-discipline.

As for Yuan Huan, there is no need to say.

Only Guo Jia...is easily criticized.

Guo Jia's face was also a little ugly. He has always been unruly. In addition, Chen Fei intends to indulge himself, which makes him even worse. But how could he not know that such behavior... must be tolerated by the world!

Xu Jing paused again:

"This person is not only of high status and power, but also has a great reputation all over the world. Since Xu Jing is the one who is the best, how dare he sit upright in the seat?"

Guo Jia immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Because although I am already a little famous, I am too far from the standard of "Great Hope in the World"!

Chen Fei was even more strange:

"Mr. Wenxiu...who do you want to impeach?"

Xu Jing's eyes fell on another official named Xu without hesitation, even his voice increased by octave:

"The person Xu Jing asked for impeachment was the one who was engaged in the Zhizhong period, Xu Shao and Xu Zi General!"

The advantage of his words, Xu Shao actually shivered in public!

Xu Shao looked at the cousin, his eyes full of shock and panic.

He wanted to pick up Xu Jing's collar and roar at him:

"I just didn't let you be an official back then, forcing you to grind soy milk for a few years, so why did you hold grudges until today?"

"We are cousins ​​born to a grandfather!"
