"You don't understand my good intentions at all! You really let me down! Let's go back to your Nanyang."
Liu Hong sighed again, and then looked at Zhang Rang.
"Publish the decree to remove all Zhang Wen's official positions and titles, demote him to a commoner, and never use him again!"
Liu Hong's voice was full of majesty and determination, and could not be questioned by others.
Zhang Wen's whole body was shaking, and tears immediately flowed down.
Zhang Wen could accept being stripped of his official position and title, and demoted to a commoner. The worst he could do was to start over again! It's just that this will never be reused, which completely ruined his career!
Zhang Wen looked at Zhang Rang for help, hoping that Zhang Rang could help him in this critical moment.
Zhang Wen and Zhang Rang were fellow townsmen, and Zhang Wen bribed Zhang Rang many times. This also makes the two of them have a close relationship!
However, Zhang Rang didn't express anything and just shook his head helplessly.
Zhang Rang couldn't speak and couldn't speak. He knew that Liu Hong couldn't control all of this.
Zhang Wen can survive, in Zhang Rang's opinion, it is because of Liu Hong's grace! How many ministers wanted to kill him!
"Zhang...Boshen, let's go, don't embarrass Your Majesty anymore."
Zhang Rang knew that Zhang Wen was unwilling, and all he could do was comfort him.
Liu Hong turned his back to Zhang Wen and raised his right hand to wave to him.
"let's go."
Zhang Wen burst into tears, knocked his head heavily on the ground, and said goodbye to Liu Hong.
"Zhang Wen thanks your majesty. I hope your majesty will take care of you."
"Boshen, let's go."
Zhang Rang helped Zhang Wen and pulled him out.
Zhang Wen left and was completely destroyed by Liu Hong. However, Liu Hong did not feel any joy, but felt even heavier.
The relatives and noble families now dare to openly attack the imperial party. With Zhang Wen's departure, the already difficult imperial party is even worse!
Liu Zhang, this clan member and his son-in-law turned out to be Liu Hong's biggest support.
"Liu Zhang, don't let me down!"
Liu Hong often had the illusion that there was an invisible push that forced him to rely more on Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang naturally didn't know about these things about the palace. Early the next morning, he took Wei Jian and his 500 cavalry to Yang County.
Regarding Xu Huang, Liu Zhang was determined to win.
The sudden change at Hangu Pass forced him to change his original plan.
Relying on the strong pass has completely become a luxury! From now on, sticking to the right path is the most important thing.
Being in power reminded Liu Zhang of Zhuge Liang and Ma Di. It was because of a powerful person that Ma Su was ruined and eventually died!
Liu Zhang had never been to the street pavilion and did not comment on Ma Su's talent, but it was certainly not something that ordinary people could do in charge of the village. At least not Ma Su.
No matter how stupid and useless Ma Su was, he was familiar with the art of war and was a talented man valued by Zhuge Liang.
This kind of talent is not good, let alone all the messy generals.
But if everyone can’t do it, Xu Huang can definitely do it! Xu Huang used tens of thousands of new soldiers to defeat the powerful Guan Yu in China, although it was long after Xu Huang became famous!
Just by relying on the word "long drive straight into", Liu Zhang had no doubts about Xu Huang! I believe that with more than ten years of training, Xu Huang will be even more unstoppable!
After nearly a day of traveling, Liu Zhang and his party finally arrived in Yang County. Under the leadership of Wei Jian, they arrived at Xu Huang's home with ease.
Xu Huang's family lives in a village outside the city. The arrival of hundreds of cavalry plunged the village into panic! Fortunately, the common people could recognize that these were officers and soldiers and not bandits, otherwise they would have fled long ago.
"General Hou, here we are, this is Xu Huang's house."
"That's it?"
Liu Zhang looked in the direction Wei Qian pointed, with a look of shock on his face.
The house in front of me is simply too simple, or can it be called a house?
Liu Zhang could even see the damage with his naked eyes. Wouldn't this kind of house become a water curtain cave in the rainy season?
Wei Jian understood Liu Zhang's shock very well, because he had the same expression when he came for the first time.
Although they are well-off and well-fed, they can think of the sufferings of the people, but they cannot realize how difficult life is.
"After General, Xu Huang's family was poor, and his father died young. Only his mother raised him up. Later, due to an accident, Xu Huang's mother's legs were broken, which made their family even more difficult! Xu Huang worked in Yang County A civil servant with only a meager income not only has to support the lives of his mother and son, but also needs medication to support his disabled mother."
Liu Zhang was very moved after hearing this. Under such difficult conditions, Xu Huang did not seek refuge with him because he was afraid that no one would support his mother after her death.
"When Xu Huang is an official in the county, is he promoting filial piety and integrity?"
Wei Qian smiled softly and shook his head helplessly.
"How can a commoner like Xu Huang have the opportunity to show his filial piety and integrity? If he is not appreciated by the general, he will only be a petty official for the rest of his life."
Although Wei Jian's words are frivolous, they are all true. If poor people like this don't have particularly great opportunities, they will have to struggle for food and clothing until they die.
Unexpectedly, Wei Jian's words resonated with Dian Wei and reminded him of his previous hard days.
"My lord, what the man named Wei said is right! When I was in Jiwu City, how much land did I cultivate by myself? But in the end, I was exploited at every level, and in the end even food and clothing became a problem!"
Liu Zhang did not speak. This phenomenon was a normal phenomenon and was beyond his control. Even hundreds or even thousands of years later, the people would still worry about food and clothing.
What Liu Zhang can do is to let more people have enough food and live in a stable social environment. Liu Zhang did not have the naive idea of allowing everyone to escape suffering. He only wanted to do something realistic, so that more people could live a better life.
"Let's go in and visit the old lady."
Liu Zhang stepped forward and knocked on the door himself. From Taishi Ci's mother Liu Zhang, we can roughly think of Xu Huang's mother. People who can educate such outstanding talents must not be ordinary people.
Boom, boom, boom. . .
Liu Zhang knocked on the door several times, and only a faint voice came from inside.
"who is it?"
"Old madam, I am the rear general Liu Zhang, and I came here specifically to see Xu Huang."
Liu Zhang reported his family status directly. In his opinion, whether he could convince Xu Huang or not was entirely up to his mother.
"who!"
Xu's mother's voice trembled. The general was too unfamiliar and unattainable to him!
"I'm following General Liu Zhang!"
"Ah, General Hou? I have difficulty moving. General Hou, please come in!"
Although Xu's mother's voice was weak, Liu Zhang could still clearly hear the nervousness in her voice.
Liu Zhang straightened his clothes, then pushed open the door and walked in. The environment he saw shocked him even more!
Compared to the shabby appearance of the mud house, the inside is even more shocking!
There wasn't even a place to sit in this room, just an earthen bed, and Xu's mother was leaning against the wall.
The room that was supposed to be dark turned out to be extremely bright. Just when Liu Zhang was surprised, a ray of sunlight hit his face, and he suddenly understood what was happening!
The house was so badly damaged that the roof was just covered with weeds and there were holes everywhere that were visible to the naked eye!
Liu Zhang couldn't help but think of a poem by Du Fu of later generations!
There is no place to dry the leakage at the bedside, and the rain has not stopped!
