Chapter 22, please bow down
He ran over to stop Shi Xun's carriage, and he was really an old friend. He was a colleague of Yi when he was in Beihai that day. He first obeyed Gaomi Order and later served as Jiaodong Order. Wang Shuzhi, the King of Yingling King, is now under the command of Yuan Tan, the governor of Qingzhou. According to Shi Yi, Wang Xiu was considered Xun's elder. His son Wang Zhong and Shin's peers were friends, so Xun respectfully called him "Prince and Duke".
Shixun entered Qingzhou under the banner of an angel. He did not intend to hide his identity at that time. Moreover, he brought so many people through other people's territory, so it was not so easy to hide his identity, so Yuan Tan soon received the news. Although the imperial court sent envoys to summon Zheng Xuan not once or twice, Zheng Xuan never refused to obey the order. Yuan Tan did not need to worry at first, but this time was different from the previous few times. Liu Xian advised: "It is Hongfu who is the world's eloquent and eloquent, including Su, Zhang Zhikou, Kuai, Li Zhishu, and formerly in Yecheng, Zhongzhi (Xin Ping), Zhengnan (Shen Pei), etc. It is impossible to guard against the emperor's sending him to Qing, and he may be able to persuade Zheng Kangcheng to serve."
Yuan Tan himself had no idea, so he sent someone to report to Yecheng on the one hand to ask for countermeasures from his father, and sent Wang Xiu, the Zhizhong, to act according to the opportunity. Wang Xiu was a Gaomi who arrived in the daytime yesterday. He had been in this county for many years and had a wide connection. He quickly found out and said that Zheng Xuan had agreed to go out of the mountain and the disciples of the Zheng sect were packing his luggage. Wang Xiu was shocked and hurried to the door to dissuade Zheng Xuan, but was excused by Xi Lu and others that the husband was old and in poor health, so he went to bed early and blocked him. Wang Xiu refused to give up and went back to rest for a night. He ran over before dawn, but he had just arrived at the Zheng family. He was shocked.
It turned out that Xi Lu sent his disciples out according to Shixun's plan. He went to the county town and nearby townships to spread the news that Zheng Xuan was about to leave the mountain and serve as a senior farmer in the court, saying that the angels would come to promulgate the imperial edict tomorrow morning. The scholars in the county and the people nearby all admired Zheng Xuan's reputation and were grateful for Zheng Xuan's kindness. When he heard that there was such a grand event, how could he not come? So he gathered together, just like a stream gathering in rivers. Wang Xiutian arrived at the Zheng family just at dawn, but at that time the courtyard had three floors inside and three floors outside, and was filled with people. Wang Xiuxin said that he was finished, and he might not be able to stop Zheng Xuan.
His original plan was to persuade Zheng Xuan to stay in Gaomi, and to send troops to isolate Zheng Xuan and not to promulgate the imperial edict. However, in the current situation, since Zheng Xuan has agreed, the news has been spread. Then 99% of the persuasion may be invalid. Mr. Zheng Kangcheng, can he go back on his word in front of everyone? What if he sent troops to block it? There are so many scholars gathered together. If one thing might happen, it would lead to civil unrest. At that time, not only would it not be able to stop Zheng Xuan, but it would also greatly destroy the reputation of the Yuan family.
However, Wang Xiu did not doubt Shi Xun, but just thought: "There is a strange person under the Zheng family. If he can serve in my lord, why worry about Qingzhou not being prosperous and Yuan's not being prosperous?" However, although Wang Xiu was a famous minister of a generation, he was not a resourceful genius, and could not come up with any good solutions for a while. He had to hold on to the hope of seeing Zheng Xuan, and persuade him politely - of course, it was completely invalid - and then when Shi Xun came, he wanted to go up and climb up first to obstruct Shi Xun from reading the edict. This was a solution that could not be done after all.
But Wang Xiu had never expected that Shi Xun actually glared at him fiercely and said, "If anyone dares to stop the emperor's imperial edict, he will be punished!" He was afraid of causing misunderstandings and causing civil unrest, so he did not dare to bring the soldiers into the yard. They were all scattered outside. Seeing that he was about to stop him again, Shi Xun's subordinates could really pull out their swords and chop people. At that moment, Wang Shuzhi was so scared that he was cold and forced to retreat temporarily.
In fact, Wang Xiu was not a timid person. When he was observing Gaomi Order, he personally led people to the home of the powerful Sun family to search for criminals. Later, he became the magistrate of Jiaodong County. He almost broke into the Gongsha Village of the Qiangzong and killed the Gongsha brothers. But at that time, he had a sense of righteousness in his heart, and he had no fear of putting life and death outside of the precepts. But now it is different. It is a crime to stop the angel, and it is legitimate to kill him. Wang Xiu has always regarded himself as a gentleman, so how could he die by the stigma of a criminal?
If Shi Xun hadn't been familiar with Wang Xiu and knew what kind of person he was, he would not have dared to do this if he had been unruly and powerful and did not take the laws of the court seriously. He probably had to wink at first and then speak harshly - what if he couldn't capture him? Then he had to find another good solution.
But Shi Xun didn't plan to force Wang Xiu to anger, nor did he officially break up with the Yuan family. So after he finally completed the edict and Zheng Xuan took over the edict, he smiled and apologized to Wang Xiu. He said that I am responsible for the important tasks of the court and must be public first and then private. Please forgive me, Prince.
Wang Xiu was a little amused and cried, thinking that he hadn't seen him for a few years, but he was Hongfu, but he was really promising. It seems that the legend of the wise men in Yecheng withdrew from the wise. At this time, Zheng Xuan had already received the edict, and Wang Xiu had no way to imagine it - he did not have this authority yet, and could turn against the Xuchang court. He had to do it for a moment, and then he smiled and said to Shixun: "What's that? Because I haven't seen Hongfu for a long time, I'm eager to see him, so I lost my composure and stopped the angel's car. What's the crime? Now that the edict has been completed and the official business has been completed, it's better to follow someone to the city, and you and I want to have a good relationship - can you and my uncle be safe? My younger son Chun (Wang Zhong) has also missed Hongfu for a long time and is about to meet you."
In fact, Wang Zhong was still serving Yuan Tan in Linzi at this time, and he was not in Gaomi County at all. Wang Xiu was talking lies with his eyes open.
Wang Xiu smiled, and Xun smiled more falsely than him. There are fake smiles in the world, and there are fake smiles. Xun was deliberately smiling for Wang Xiu. "What did the prince say? Although the imperial edict was completed, Xun's mission has not yet ended. You must welcome Zheng Siong to Xudu and return to the emperor. The business will be finished. There is no need for the prince to send him off. Xun will set off on Zheng Siong. See you again next day." As he said that, he turned his head and asked Xi Lu: "Can you stop doing everything?"
Xi Lu smiled faintly: "Let's go." He immediately helped Zheng Xuan to the car. Lu Su jumped out of the car and helped Zheng Sect disciples to help Zheng Xuan onto the carriage.
Wang Xiu wanted to delay time again, but saw Shixun bowing deeply to him, then turned around and jumped into the car briskly. Standing beside Zheng Xuan, raised his left hand high and said loudly: "Zheng Sinong is the best in the world. Now that he is summoned to the capital, he expects that the war will end, and you will all usher in a peaceful and prosperous era! If you don't kneel down to see Zheng Sinong, when will you wait?!" As he said that, his other hand patted Sun Wen's shoulder. Sun Wen understood and immediately shouted Shixun's words at the top of his voice.
In and out of the field, I heard it clearly. Except for Wang Xiu and the disciples of the Zheng sect, everyone, regardless of the scholars, gentry, or ordinary people, knelt down and shouted: "Great send to Zheng Siong!" Wang Xiu was still stunned. Shi Xun smiled at him: "Prince, please kneel down and send to him." Not to mention that Zheng Xuan is an old senior of scholars. He is now a Grand Secretary and one of the nine ministers. He has two thousand stones. How many stones are you in Wang Shuzhi? Zheng Siong is leaving. How dare you not kneel down and send to him?
Wang Xiuzhen was full of grievances and no one expressed his grievances. When his knees were weak on the spot, he would kneel. Fortunately, his mind was quite quick. He had just bent his legs, but he quickly stood up and bowed and said, "I am the order of Yuan Envoy Yuan to send the prince out of Qing." This "send" is not the other "send". Wang Xiu means that I have to send you all the way to the junction of Qing and Yan. We are just apart, so I won't kneel down for now.
Shixun thought that you would kneel or not, and you would be free if you would give it to you. I can't stop you and there is no reason to stop it. But you can't stop it. You smiled slightly again: "That's the case, it's a blessing for the prince. But the emperor longs for Zheng Siong. It's like a drought that I hope Yun Ni can't delay at all. Xun will set off with Zheng Siong." He patted Sun Wen's shoulder again, and Sun Wen immediately shook the reins, circled the carriage, and headed straight to the west. The disciples of Zheng's disciples pushed the cart and carried the bags, and quickly followed. Wang Xiu was left alone and was stunned, but he was helpless.
Shixun and others traveled westward. When it was not too late, Wang Xiu gathered the soldiers near Zhengjiachangyuan and chased them from behind. Shixun looked at the Qingzhou soldiers, about 70 or 80 people, and then looked at the Han army beside him. In fact, it should be Cao's army. He thought to himself that you are not a single person in terms of quantity or quality. If you want to follow, just follow.
Shixun and Zheng Xuan's carriage were in front, under the protection of Lu Su and Cao's army, followed by a large group of Zheng's disciples - except for some Gaomi locals who were attached to their hometown, most of them were willing to follow the teacher to Xudu - and then there were Wang Xiu and Qingzhou soldiers. The Zheng's disciples had carts and some carried bags, and there were not a few livestock in total, so the speed of travel was not fast, and the Qingzhou soldiers were blocked behind and walked even more exhausted. Wang Xiu took a lot of effort to finally ride a horse and squeeze through the crowd and catch up with the carriage in front.
Zheng Xuan sat in the car and closed his eyes to rest, deliberately ignoring Wang Xiu. Wang Xiu had to talk to Shixun. Shixun responded in a mess, just to tell each other about the situation after the separation. However, he deliberately or unintentionally, he found out the situation in Qingzhou in the past two years.
On the evening of that day, he lived in a pavilion house. Shi Xun and Zheng Xuan had official positions and could stay in the pavilion. He ordered Sun Wen to lead the soldiers to protect him outside, and there were also dense disciples of Zheng Sect outside, and the Qingzhou soldiers were squeezed in the outer circle. Although Wang Xiu squeezed into the pavilion house, he could no longer use any tricks to stop Zheng Xuan, and he was unable to even slow down his schedule. The disciples of Zheng Sect were already walking very slowly. Why, the Qingzhou soldiers wanted to walk more slowly? Anyway, the people in front of him would not stop and wait for you.
Moreover, along the way, Xun only lived in Chuan, Pavilion, and never entered the county town. Although Wang Xiu temporarily transferred two more soldiers from Chang'an and Anqiu counties, he was just ordinary garrison soldiers after all. If he really wanted to fight, he would not have any confidence in winning. Besides, Wang Xiu did not dare to take action. After all, he had no title of righteousness or Yuan Tan's order.
I saw that I entered the border of Qi, there was a place called "Santing" in front of me. I stayed for another night and set off the next day and entered Laiwu County, Taishan Country, Yanzhou at the latest in the afternoon. In other words, Wang Xiu had to quit at that time and had to "kneel and send" Zheng Sinong. He was so anxious that he thought he had sent someone to Linzi a long time ago. Lord, have you not come up with a countermeasure yet?
There are plains east of Santing, and to the west, the terrain is gradually rising. The hills on both sides of the road are stretched. The road also turns northwest due to the hills, and enters Yanzhou forty miles away. Not long after leaving the trip the next day, Lu Su pointed from afar and said casually: "This is a good place for ambush to hinder us."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a noise coming from the front, and someone came to report: "The thief blocked the way!" Shi Xunxin said, yo, Mr. Lu Zijing is actually a crow's mouth! (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
ps: Today's update, because there were some private matters before and after dinner, so I sent it out in advance.
