  Chapter 17 The old friend of Luoyang

  Following Comrade Wang Mang's implementation of a series of policies full of heroes Nathaniel, an incarnation of luck, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu shines on the stage.

...

Liu Xiu was actually born into a family of small landlords in the countryside—suddenly, there was a strange sense of familiarity—and his father was only a low-level government official, and he had already resigned and returned home. offshoot.

  Liu Xiu grew up and reached the age of marriage, and Bai Fumei sent her to her door—Yin Lihua. Li Taibai praised Yin Lihua's beauty as "Lihua is beautiful and jade-like, and a Han girl is charming and beautiful." Of course, in addition to her peerless beauty, Yin Lihua is also the daughter of a real rich family...

   In addition, Liu Xiu has also been in prison. Others have been in prison without dying. Liu Xiu has nothing to do. Not only was she not successfully reformed after she was released from prison, but she rebelled immediately...

  At that time, a big rebel faction was the Red Eyebrow Army, and a small one was the Green Forest Army. Liu Xiu joined the small one, but there was no Liu Xiu’s big rebel faction, the Red Eyebrow Army.

Later, when Wang Mang's army from various counties and the Central Forbidden Army encountered Liu Xiu, a strange thing happened. The 400,000 regular army fought against the 20,000 local local bravery and bandits. Not only did they fail to win, but they were also beaten. After being defeated, only 3,000 of Wang Mang's 400,000 troops fled back...

What happened at that time cannot be completely recovered by relying on only a few words in the letter, but it can also be glimpsed. Wang Mang, who was walking the kingly way, stumbled on Liu Xiu, a rock, and fell down. Tenel's new dynasty was ended, and history still moved towards the track of feudal society.

  So the more Li Ru watched, the more palpitated he became, and the more he understood the past history, the more uneasy he became about his original plan. Li Ru originally planned to spend about 20 years laying the groundwork for Dong Zhuo, building popularity, and laying a solid foundation, but when he saw the old affairs of Wang Mang and Liu Xiu, he found that he could never do better than Wang Mang. Okay, but Wang Mang failed strangely. Can he guarantee that there will be no second Liu Xiu when he takes the kingly way in the future?

The way of kingship is slow, but domineering is fast. If he follows the route of hegemony, Li Ru estimates that if all goes well, he will be able to wipe out most of the forces that oppose him in the world, although he may not be able to settle all the forces that oppose him. Those corners and corners are nothing to worry about. Of course, the premise is to bear the risks that have exploded in the past three years.

   Li Ru asked Jia Xu to come here because he wanted to hear Jia Xu's opinion, so when he showed Jia Xu the letter, he looked at Jia Xu quietly and waited.

  Of course Jia Xu knew what Li Ru wanted to ask, but what did he say? Should we choose long-term steady development and deal with small problems first, but in the future we may be hit by big troubles that cannot be solved by manpower; Once it is resolved, it can expand its own power to the maximum in the shortest possible time, and complete the transformation and gain new life before the unsolvable future comes.

  Jia Xu wrung his fingers and muttered to himself. Even with his intelligence, he couldn't immediately weigh the pros and cons of the two paths.

It is not as simple as choosing whether to eat noodles or rice today. Choosing that path means what you will face in the future. The wealth and lives of tens of thousands of followers...

   Difficult, Jia Xu's head was getting hot from thinking, and he couldn't help poking his scalp with his greasy fingers.

  The corners of Li Ru's eyes twitched again. Sometimes, if it wasn't for the sake of his fellow apprentices, he would really be unbearable to this slovenly Jia Xu.

  This time, a servant from a family came down to the hall and handed over a famous badge, saying that Lang Guan Feiqian had been invited, and asked Li Ru if he had seen him or not.

   "Take him to the side hall and wait." Li Ru ordered, then looked at Jia Xu, "I'm not in a hurry, there is still some time, Wenhe might as well think about it."

Jia Xu rolled her eyes, "Would you call me if you're not in a rush? Hmph, how much time do you think you have left? Yeah, I'm so heartwarming. It seems that that road is not easy to walk now..." Now I am in a domineering and domineering way. At the fork in the road, you can choose which one you want to take at any time during this time period, but as time goes by, if you want to change another road, it is not just as simple as going back, but also requires paying an unimaginable price. directly shake the foundation.

   "At least ten days." Li Ru knew what time Jia Xu was referring to, so he replied. Now that the imperial court has just experienced turmoil, at this point in time they are waiting to see each other's positions and attitudes, reshuffle the cards and select teams, and are also waiting for Dong Zhuo, who holds the military power, to express his attitude, but this time will not be too long, Li Ru The estimated time is almost the maximum.

"It's only been ten days!" Jia Xu hugged his head and said, "There are so many things that need to be pushed back to the calculation, how can ten days be enough? Why do you still look like you are not in a hurry? Ah, why are you going? "

  Li Ru got up and walked out, said lightly: "Go to see an old friend."

   "Do you still have old friends in Luoyang? Wait, I'll go and meet you too."

  ************

   Fei Qian was a little uneasy, why did he get involved with Li Ru, Dong Zhuo's number one military adviser? Although it is said that this invitation should be more auspicious than evil, because if it is really necessary to deal with a reserve official like himself, why use Habayashi to invite him, and Fei Qian would not be able to bear to send any official here, but then again, it is not worth it. Make sure nothing happens, right?

Fei Qian can be said to be the first time to deal with well-known figures in the Three Kingdoms, and the small drum in his heart is also beating non-stop. Anyway, Li Ru also single-handedly pulled Dong Zhuo from a small local military officer to the top warlord in power at this moment. the wise man.

Just when Feiqian was in a panic, he saw a person coming in from the back hall out of the corner of his eye, so he quickly stood up and stood aside with drooping eyebrows. When the figure's eyes were not on him, he quickly raised his eyes and glanced, only to see the person coming. The man's crown and bo belt are clear and meaningful.

  Is this person Li Ru?

It really completely subverted Fei Qian's three views. Li Ru in any movies and TV series I saw in later generations looked as frustrated as he wanted, not only wretched but also constipated. Can you connect with the handsome guy in his thirties?

In fact, Fei Qian didn't fully understand that in ancient times, the requirements for the appearance of officials were quite high. Although they may not necessarily have the kind of long, soul-stirring and earth-shattering beauty, at least they should be close to Guangwei. Those who look a little ugly are not very popular. If it is the kind of appearance that is even worse, it is the kind of extinction, basically it is better to break the minds of civil servants as soon as possible.

Therefore, not only did Li Ru not have the wretched look in the later TV and movie works, but because he had lived in Xiliang for many years, and there were a group of Qiang people under his command, who ate more meat than the Central Plains people. The body is still quite strong, unlike some literati who seem to be going back when the wind blows.

   Li Ru waited to kneel upright on the mat, and signaled to Fei Qian that there was no need to be formal, Fei Qian thanked him, and then sat down in silence.

  Li Ru quietly looked at Fei Qian, without speaking.

   Fei Qian was also sitting on his knees in a stable manner. On such occasions, only Li Ru had the right to speak first. If Fei Qian spoke first, it would be against etiquette.

  Li Ru looked at the outline of Fei Qian's face, which gradually matched the person in his impression twenty years ago, "Are you twenty years old this year?"

   "Exactly."

   "Your birthday is November 26?"

   "Exactly." Although Fei Qian didn't know why Li Ru asked these personal questions, he answered honestly.

   Li Ru nodded, that's right, "You are currently a Lang Guan, do you have a real position?"

   "I don't have a job yet." Fei Qian is just a large number of reserve officials of the imperial court, and has not been officially awarded the official position in charge of that matter by the imperial court. In the Han Dynasty, there were more than 5,000 Lang Guan at most, so although Lang Guan can be called "official" in a casual manner, in fact, these Lang Guan without real positions are just a nice title, even compared with some big officials. The official is not as good.

  Li Ru straightened his beard, and said to Fei Qian: "So, there is still a vacancy in the general's mansion. Would you like to take it?"

   After Feiqian listened, his heart was like thousands of muddy horses galloping past. What's going on? Li Ru actually wants to seal me from office? The general's mansion is actually an official who helped Li Ru, the chief of the general's mansion, whether it is big or small, after all, Dong Zhuo is in the limelight now, let alone Dong Zhuo will put Liu Bian in the future. Ascending to the Prime Minister, the officials under him will naturally rise to the top—

  This official position looks very good, with a bright future, but Fei Qian knew that, based on what he knew, Dong Zhuo would end up with no good end, so how much future would those who follow Dong Zhuo have? Maybe it will be snapped off in a few years...

  What if you reject Li Ru's invitation?

At this stage, Dong Zhuo is the absolute master. Fei Qian remembers that several high officials in the court seemed to contradict Dong Zhuo, and they were immediately taken down on the spot. Asking for my own opinion, but it's hard to guarantee that if Li Ru is angered, making Li Ru feel that he doesn't know what is good and bad, that he is shameless, that he will not eat a toast and be fined, then it will be bad...

  Then procrastinate? Fei Qian suddenly felt that it was difficult for him to find an excuse to procrastinate. If other people could make an excuse to say that the matter was serious, they needed to go home and discuss it with their parents. There are no elders, you say go back and find someone to discuss, who will believe it?

  What should I do? Fei Qian was so anxious that he almost broke out in sweat.

Liu Xiuzhen was lucky all his life, and Bai Fumei turned his back on him. It was his elder brother who got the limelight and was shot in the early stage. He picked up the bargain in the back. That 20,000 vs. 400,000 match, huh, huh. When he smashed it down, Wang Mang was wiped out... In addition, after Wang Mang died, his head was cut off, his tongue was pulled out, and then made into a specimen and sealed. An emperor who was treated like this... In addition, I am looking for collections and recommendations. It is not easy for a novice, so I ask for everything.
