Three Kingdoms

Chapter 517 Picking Peaches

After Dong Zhuo came to power, he replaced a large number of generals in the Northern Army of the imperial court. Some of these generals were closely related to Dong Zhuo, and some were not.

But when the situation is unclear, even the stupidest people will not reuse these generals easily.

Except for one person, Huangfu Song and Huangfu Yizhen.

Huangfu Song was from Chaona County, Anding County. According to his origin, he was from Xiliang. However, how should I put it? According to later generations, he was like a banana man.

Huangfu Song's predecessors, his father Huangfu Jie, the prefect of Yanmen, and his uncle Huangfu Gui, the general of the Liao Dynasty, had conquered the world. In his generation, Huangfu Song started to move from a general to the gentry.

By interacting with Taixue students, defending party officials, and exposing the illegal behavior of the regular ministers, Huangfu Song successfully established an image among the gentry children as one of the four most educated youths of the Han Dynasty with moral character, ideals, ambitions, and culture. …

At one time, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty wanted to let Huangfu Song take over Dong Zhuo's troops.

Perhaps from this perspective, Huangfusong believed that Bingzhou was actually his territory.

Huangfu Song is known as a contemporary celebrity. He is benevolent and prudent, dedicated to his duties, a corporal with integrity, diligent in government and caring for the people. He is simply a perfect saint!

When the Yellow Turbans were suppressed, Huangfu Song led the herdsmen of Jizhou and repeatedly asked the court to reduce or reduce the land tax in Jizhou. He wrote more than 500 speeches and admonishments in total, and each time he wrote them with his own hand and destroyed the drafts. Nor is it revealed to the public.

In the army, Huangfu Song did not complain about being thirsty until the well was reached; he did not complain about being tired before the military affairs were completed; he did not complain about hunger before the army stove was cooked; if his subordinates accepted bribes, Huangfu Song did not show any responsibility. , but gave him money and materials again, which made the officials feel ashamed, and some even committed suicide.

Hehe, hehe.

This is the case with many things. What a beautiful image looks like on the surface, but it may not be so if you look beyond it.

He requested more than 500 points for tax exemption and was so careful to personally destroy the manuscript so as not to leak it. However, how did this supposedly top-secret information become known to the world?

Those greedy military officials who dared to risk being cut in half and accepted bribes regardless of military law would commit suicide immediately after being forgiven...

Although Cai Yong was a person who didn't like to comment on other people's words and deeds, after all, his disciples were involved, so he pondered for a long time before shaking his head and said: "... That day, the grand master ordered the imperial censor Zhongcheng to kneel under the car. ...There was a saying that unexpectedly the Grand Master turned into the Phoenix Emperor..."

Is this happening?

Then he turned around and was responsible for ransacking and killing Dong Zhuo's eighty-year-old mother and granddaughter under fourteen, right?

According to the laws of Han Dynasty, people who are over seventy years of age are respected by people. If they are not the first to kill or injure someone, they will not be accused or impeached, and they will not be seated. However, Huangfu Song was killed for the crime of not educating his son.

In this way, the puzzle of Huangfu Song's whole person gradually becomes complete.

And according to what Fei Qian knew and what Master Cai Yong said, it made sense for Huangfu Song to target him.

Huangfu Song is not a person who dares to chew hard bones. The so-called scholar's character is mostly pretended to cherish his own feathers, and he is ruthless and kind-hearted...

Although Dong Zhuo has been executed, Niu Fu and others are still leading the army outside Chang'an...

As the only person with experience and qualifications in the government and the opposition, should the Xiliang soldiers step forward once they have some problems?

However, it is obvious that Huangfusong does not intend to swim in this muddy water. He hopes to escape to Bingzhou, a place where it is easier to operate and make achievements...

"I'm here to pick peaches..." Fei Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Cai Yong thought about it, smiled, and said, "This metaphor is perfect."

Now we know the situation, but how to deal with it?

× × × × × × × × ×

Thousands of miles away in Jizhou, Yuan Shao was also preparing to pick peaches.

In the past year or so, Yuan Shao himself has always respected the game rules of the Han Empire. Therefore, he first built an altar and took over the chariot and cavalry generals before infiltrating and intervening in Jizhou's affairs. Of course, Yuan Shao's current real position awarded by the court is that of Bohai County Governor.

But now after flirting with the local bosses in Jizhou, Yuan Shao felt that he could become a governor, or win a state pastor for fun.

Of course, Han Fu was not a nice guy. In fact, Han Fu was always competing with Yuan Shao from the beginning to the end.

When Yuan Shao first arrived in Bohai County, Han Fu sent some confidants to help Yuan Shao on the surface, but in fact everyone knew what they were doing...

However, Yuan Shao was a descendant of the Yuan family after all. With a rally, nobles from all over the world gathered, and many people in Jizhou also extended a helping hand to Yuan Shao. Han Fu's plan soon came to nothing.

But then, Han Fu held on to the grain bag and even secretly reduced the supply of military rations to Yuan Shao in order to disperse his army. However, this was also the reason why Yuan Shao finally made up his mind to get rid of Han Fu.

As a model of noble status in the world, Yuan Shao naturally cannot pick peaches himself. Naturally, someone will do it for him, and this person is Xun Zhan.

Yecheng government office, in the study room.

"Youruo..." Han Fu asked, "...what advice do you have here this time?"

Xun Zhan remained silent.

Han Fu's eyes opened wider and wider. Looking at Xun Zhan, his hands began to tremble involuntarily, but his heart couldn't help but sink, "...even you..."

Han Fu closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

When Xun Zhan officially appeared in front of him as Yuan Shao's lobbyist, Han Fu understood that this meant one thing: the Yuzhou gentry had given up on him.

As a Yuzhou native, being abandoned by the Yuzhou gentry is such an embarrassing and painful thing!

"Who else is there?" After a long silence, Han Fu asked with a slightly trembling voice.

"Yuancai, Yuanhao, Gongyu, Jingming..."

"Zhongzhi, Gongze, Ziyuan, Yuantu..."

"Du Guan Zhu, Xi Ping koji..."

Every time Xun Zhan said a name, Han Fu trembled.

"That's enough..." Han Fu stretched out his hand to interrupt Xun Zhan's words and asked: "...Now, what can we do?"

Xun Zhan looked at Han Fu and shook his head.

Among these names, some are local tyrants and military bosses in Jizhou, some are famous members of Jizhou’s gentry, some are famous people from Yingchuan and Nanyang in Yuzhou, some are former subordinates, and some are people who will inevitably offend after moving to Jizhou, and now these people They all gathered together to express their support for Yuan Shao...

What else can be done?

Han Fu just grabbed the corner of his clothes, trembling his lips, and finally struggled to ask: "...What can I gain?"

"Han Gong can earn a virtuous name." Xun Zhan fell to the ground and bowed.

Han Fu almost jumped to his feet and cursed loudly. An insubstantial virtuous name was exchanged for the shepherd of a state! This son of the Yuan family actually treated me like this!

However, Han Fu didn't say or do anything in the end, he just lowered his head dejectedly...

Huangfu Song...

In the third year of Jianzhong (782), Yan Zhenqing, the envoy of etiquette, suggested to Tang Dezong that 64 famous ancient generals should be granted posthumous titles and temples should be built to commemorate them, including "Taiwei Huailihou Huangfusong".

In the fifth year of Xuanhe (1123), the Song Dynasty followed the practice of the Tang Dynasty and built temples for famous ancient generals. Among the seventy-two famous generals, Huangfu Song was also included. Huangfu Song was also listed in the "Biography of One Hundred Generals in Seventeen Histories" written during the Northern Song Dynasty and the "Biography of Guangming Generals" written in the Ming Dynasty.
