Fall In Love with the Technology Tree - Chapter 102
The spring intention of the Jiazi year stuck out her head tremblingly in Luoyang City. Although everyone still wears winter clothes when they go out, the buds of wax plums in the yard of rich people have already sprung up crisp yellow buds. And such a shallow feeling of spring became even more enthusiastic when it arrived at the newly renovated Grand General’s Mansion. Not to mention the fresh flowers brought in from the south, and the concierge who came to deliver famous posters, gifts, beggars, and relatives, they crowded in a circle.
This grand scene has lasted for a winter.
The concierge of the He family has developed an arrogant face and a pair of snobbish eyes. Most people don’t even look at him. Nonsense, if any rogue can get benefits from the Great General, then opening ten doors will not be enough.
Cao Cao and Gongsun Du stood on the street and watched helplessly as a son of a noble family in Shenling was pushed down the steps by his family, knocked on the crack of the stone on the ground, and the robe made of silk satin A hole was cut open. Gongsun Du couldn’t help but sigh: “The door of the general’s room is really high.”
Cao Cao is also a little hesitant. Although he is the son of Jiuqing, he has left the political center for many years. If he was kicked out because the concierge didn’t know him, wouldn’t he be embarrassed in front of Gongsun Du? Fortunately, his luck has always been good. When he was unable to advance or retreat, he saw an acquaintance coming out of the house – Xu You.
Xu You is Yuan Shao’s secret party and Cao Cao’s Taixue classmate. As an activist in this era, his ability to recognize faces surpassed others, and he immediately greeted him enthusiastically: “But Meng De is back?”
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief: “Ziyuan, stay safe?”
The embarrassment of people entering the city.
Fortunately, when Xu You was about to pull people into the door, Cao Cao finally wanted to come over to introduce a certain Northeast tyrant, so he pulled Xu You with his left hand and Gongsun Du with his right: “This is Xu You Xu Ziyuan, Nanyang celebrity. This is Gongsun Du Gongsun Shengji, the head of the Xuantu Gongsun clan, and he is also a famous hero outside the customs.”
As a qualified high-ranking person, Xu You naturally recites the family tree of various families. “I have heard of the Gongsun clan in Liaodong.”
Gongsun Du’s eyes flashed: “That is a certain family, because my late father was the prefect of Xuantu, after the separation, the whole family settled in Xuandu.” Under the threat of Goguryeo and Xianbei, it was dilapidated, and the county seat has been relocated several times. How can it compare to the stable Liaodong county.
Hearing that Gongsun Du was from a noble family, Xu You smiled, pointed to the main hall of He Mansion and said, “Shengji can get Meng De’s blue eyes, I think he will have something special in the future. I don’t know if I can come back to the top.” Even the compliment was a bit too much to urge the children of the branch family to surpass the main family, but it just hit Gongsun Du’s heart.
So Gongsun Du showed his first hearty smile since meeting: “Thank you Ziyuan for auspicious words.”
Yuan Shao has a temporary residence in He Jin’s mansion. It is said that it is a temporary residence, but it is also a single house with four or five rooms. The food and decoration are all excellent, and it is even two points more luxurious than the Gongsun family in Liaodong. Zhang Miao, Xun Chen, Wu Qiong, Zheng Tai, He Yong and others lived in front, back, left and right.
The staff dormitory does not bring family members, but the work efficiency is quite high. Cao Cao took out the whistleblower letter from Tang Zhou, along with the Taiping Road token, letters and other evidence. Within an hour, a group of people gathered in He Jin’s study. No matter how busy He Jin was, he couldn’t be too busy with Yuan Shao. He was a relative from a butcher, and no matter how high his status was, he treated the children of aristocratic families with respect and envy.
“Cao Cao, is the Taiping Road really going to cause chaos? Just this year? Is the news reliable?”
Cao Cao surrendered: “General, I have been in Jizhou this time, and I have seen with my own eyes the refugees gathered on Taiping Road, and their whereabouts are strange. In addition, I ran into an informant who wanted to inform on the road, and I found these Things, time and place are clear and complete, I can’t help but believe it.”
The whistleblower letter is divided into several pages, and the people present take turns to read it, and the more they look, the more solemn their faces become.
“This is too absurd!” Zhang Miao patted the table, “The mere refugees are trying to subvert the capital in vain, are the Imperial Army and the Northern Army all dead? Are all Yang Ling dead?”
He Jin’s face is not good-looking, the process of his appointment as a general has not been completed, and there are people who oppose it, how can he be happy?
Xun Chen was more rational, and analyzed in a clear voice: “Luoyang was built with the concept of ‘a big city without Guo’, and the West City, East City, Ma City, and most of the people live there Outside the city walls. These places are mixed with dragons and snakes, and it is really difficult for thieves to sneak in. But no matter what they are in the outer city, as long as the inner city arsenal is not lost, the forbidden army is enough to quell the chaos. The only thing to beware of is that there are people in the inner city. party.”
Yuan Shao squinted his eyes and flicked one of the cloths with his finger: “The inner city is full of dignitaries, and rashly investigates, if people think that the general has just taken office and excludes dissidents, what should we do? ? The news that Taiping Dao rebelled has been reported every year, and now it has been almost five or six years, but there is nothing to worry about. The news this time is shocking, I am afraid it is exaggerated.”
“Gyeonggi is an important place that can’t be lost!” Cao Cao stood up with a swipe, “I also ask the general to play on your majesty, and ask your majesty to decide. The letter contains the confession of the thief’s head Ma Yuanyi, as well as several strongholds on Taiping Road. , at least take a good look at these places, it’s not an exaggeration. If you ignore it, when it comes to March Jiazi, there will be riots in Luoyang, and you and I will be sinners through the ages!”
Yuan Shao looked up at the former young student, wondering what he was thinking.
Cao Cao turned to Yuan Shao again: “In the beginning, the family had a family business in the outer city, and many of them were old, young, women and children. If the disaster can be avoided this time, it will be a blessing for each family.”
Yuan Shao is still playing haha, He Jin has been persuaded over there, he urgently needs to build up his achievements and urgently needs to sell well to the aristocratic family, this is an opportunity. “I will send my servants to investigate these locations. If there are any suspicious signs, I will enter the palace immediately!”
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and could feel the heat from the ground and the expensive smell of incense in the room. This was the best result he could get. Today’s emperor is almost thirty years old, and he is arrogant and extravagant, but he is not stupid.
At the same time, Qin Liu walked around Luoyang East Market with a spy who pretended to be a pony, and gradually came to a “rice bean wine shop”. “Dalang is a disciple of the famous general Zhang Huan. He has made military exploits in the border gates. He has served as Luoyang Beiweiwei and Wenxian County magistrate. If he insists, he will be able to persuade He Jin. Not quite.”
“Then… don’t we do something?” The stable boy raised his baby face.
“What do you do?” Qin Liu evoked a smile, “This is Dalang’s achievement, but he can’t demolish his family’s platform.”
They entered the “Rice Dou” and nodded to the old lady who came to greet: “Is there any leftovers for Qingming plum wine?”
It’s just spring, where is the Qingming? But a strange light flashed in the old lady’s cloudy eyes: “Do you want last year’s wine or the year before? Older wines can only be drunk after three times of frying.”
“Frying wine is also an elegant thing, but I still like last year’s wine.”
The old lady saluted respectfully: “I also invite guests to come with me.”
I walked past the back kitchen of the restaurant, then through another door, and entered a closed courtyard. Seven or eight people, men, women and children, were exercising in the courtyard, looking unspeakably weird. “Manager Qin!” Everyone shouted in unison when Qin Liu showed his identity card.
Qin Liu waved his hands: “You guys continue to practice. I’ll just get some local produce.” The so-called local produce is two books newly compiled by Nandao Zheng Xuan, plus some sapphire paper, pine smoke ink, Objects such as mink skin and ginseng were given to Cao Yin, who was the secretary and supervisor in Taichang Mansion.
The secretary of the Eastern Han Dynasty, translated as the director of the National Library. A post that was only established during the time of the emperor, and has not yet received the attention of the world. But it just made Cao Sheng cheaper.
Five years ago, the emperor started the most rampant selling of officials in history in order to build the palace, and even the three princes clearly marked the price. Cao Song originally wanted to buy a Sangong Dangdang, and since then the Cao family has also been a family of Sangong. But both the twins and Hu fought against it.
“The three males earned by buying officials will not be recognized by the world, but will be ridiculed.” Cao Cao said.
Say.
So Cao Song gave up the idea of buying the third public, and turned to help the children of the Cao family to operate. It goes without saying that Cao Cao won a county magistrate of Wenxian County, but Cao Yin, the sixth uncle, bought a post of secretary supervisor according to Ah Sheng’s suggestion. Although he was a little weaker, he was Cao Song’s biological younger brother.
In the past five years, the Luoyang spy department has used Cao Yin as a child servant to enter and leave the imperial palace and the imperial school, copy most of the official collection, and transport them to the South Island one by one. Cao Yin is unknown and works hard. Every time he sends something to Luoyang from overseas, Ah Sheng will not fall behind Cao Yin’s share.
“Oh, there are no wine shops in the inner city, it’s really inconvenient.” He stood on the sunny street, looking up at the almost identical high walls on both sides, and said to himself, “I’ll ask a kind family for a bowl of water to drink. Bar.”
In fact, he turned back to Cao Yin’s house, but Qin Liu seemed to have completely forgotten, he continued to walk a few hundred meters and knocked on the side door of a house.
“Can I ask the host for a bowl of water?”
“Go away!” The person who answered the door was rude, and couldn’t wait to close the door.
Qin Liu made two “tsk tsk” in his heart, the level of disguise is really bad, but the face is not obvious, he stuffed a bamboo slip into the other’s sleeve, and then turned his head just left.
The head of the espionage felt that he really broke his heart for Taiping Road: he helped to clean up the informers and traitors, he helped to paint out the three inner city strongholds, and he helped to hide the inner eunuchs Yes, he helped deliver the notice to assassinate the emperor. If this can’t be done, then Emperor Dong won’t be able to save these idiots once he comes. As for secretly changing the assassination time earlier, there is no way to do that. After all, it has dragged on for a long time, and those Taiping Roads in the outer city have all confessed to the inner responders, and they can’t assassinate if they want to.
The emperor has been in power for 16 years and is gradually maturing politically. Faced with the situation of the uprisings in the various states, whether there is a long monarch or a young lord, the difference is heaven and earth.
