Liu Bian's eyes moved slightly, thinking.
Yanzhou borders Sili to the west, Jizhou to the north, Qingzhou to the east, and Yuzhou to the south. It is a strategically important place!
To put it simply, Cao Cao started his career in Yanzhou in history, and Xuchang is at the junction of Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Sili!
Liu Bian must control this place!
The state pastors sent are not only "loyal" and easy to control, but also have enough ability to deal with the complicated situation in Yanzhou.
The most important thing is that this person must have no position!
Zhang Wen was carefully selected by Liu Bian. This man was the old boss of Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian and others. Even Huangfu Song had been under him.
Two years ago, Zhang Wen was dismissed as Taiwei because of his "inability to quell the rebellion." It was the result of the Yuan family's efforts behind the scenes!
Yang Biao felt the sudden silence in the study room, and there was a trace of cold sweat on his head. He didn't dare to wipe it off. He was very irritated by Yuan Wei's reaction and said to himself: If you continue like this, I will have to divorce my wife!
Huangfu Song was sitting there, obviously among everyone, but he seemed far away.
Yuan Ji was secretly excited when he saw that his uncle had silenced everyone with just one word.
Liu Bian couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that this group of people were silent. Yuan Wei could easily block your mouths with such a sentence?
Wang Yun was secretly happy that he had guessed Liu Bian's thoughts, but when he saw Yuan Kui's repeated interruptions, he was secretly annoyed, and directly raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I thought that with your false words, I would sever the attachment of important officials to the country. This is ridiculous! I am willing to vouch for Zhang Wen!"
Yuan Wei did not speak, and returned to silence, as if he was staying out of the incident.
Liu Bian showed a very satisfied smile to Wang Yun and said: "Since Wang Qing's family is so determined, I also believe that Zhang Qing's family is not someone who bribes officials. Let's settle this matter. Wang Qing's family will write first Write a letter to find out about Zhang Qing’s family.”
"I accept the decree!" Wang Yun's face was solemn, and he was overjoyed in his heart. After being in the Chancery for so long, he finally has the qualifications to speak!
Yuan Wei frowned and thought deeply.
Yuan Ji looked at Liu Bian, blinked, and was surprised: Is Your Majesty so courageous? Aren't you afraid of being slapped in the face afterwards and losing your prestige?
Seeing that the matter was settled, Pan Yin raised his head and looked outside.
The rain outside was very heavy, and Huang Wan's umbrella had been knocked down. Huang Wan stood alone in the heavy rain, with water all over his body, and his expression could not be seen clearly.
Pan Yin withdrew his gaze and stood aside with a calm expression.
Liu Bian also glanced at it, reached out to pick up the tea cup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "The second thing is that someone has recently written a letter asking for the abolition of Hongdu School. What do you think?"
Everyone present was stunned when they heard this. They almost forgot about it. Who wrote the letter?
The so-called "Hongdu School" is a school established by Emperor Ling. It is different from Taixue, which mainly focuses on Confucian classics and can only be entered by children of aristocratic families. This Hongdu School was established in Hongdu Gate. Under the name of "Chi Shou, Ci Fu, Calligraphy and Painting", it recruited local talents and learned people, breaking the barriers to admission based on family background.
Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, under the promotion of Emperor Ling and the Eunuch Party, this Hongdu sect developed rapidly and became an important tool to check and balance the nobles in the outer court.
Ding Gong, Liu Hong and others didn't care much about Hongdu Sect, but they were just confused about why Liu Bian suddenly mentioned this.
Wang Yun, Yang Biao, and Huangfu Song also had no special feelings. Without the support of the late emperor and the eunuchs, the Hongdu sect, good or bad, would not last long.
Yuan Ji bowed and remained still, thinking subconsciously and guessing Liu Bian's purpose.
Yuan Ji knew about this Hongdu sect because people from here had snatched several important official positions that the Yuan family had already reserved.
For example, the governor of Youzhou was snatched away by Liang Hu, a man from the Hongdu sect who learned the right thing.
When Liu Bian saw that they were silent, he narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately understood in his heart that the Hongdu Sect was just a whim of his cheap father. These people did not think highly of the Hongdu Sect.
Liu Bian was thinking in his mind and said with a smile: "Since the Qing family has no objection, let's let it go for now. Censor Zhongcheng, Youzhou Shepherd Liu Yu recommended Youzhou Governor Liang Hu. What do you think?"
Yuan Ji's eyes suddenly opened and he became nervous unconsciously.
In Ding Palace, Liu Hong was startled. This recommendation was already done nearly a month ago, but they immediately raised their hands and said: "I second my proposal."
Liu Bian noticed that Yuan Wei was about to raise his head and immediately asked Wang Yun: "Wang Qing's family?"
"I second the proposal." Wang Yun may have any opinions. Now he will follow Liu Bian's words smoothly without hesitation.
Liu Bian smiled and said, "Yang Qing's family, Huangfu Qing's family?"
Yang Biao and Huangfu Song would not have any objections. They raised their hands and said: "I second my opinion."
Liu Bian ignored the remaining Yuan Wei and Yuan Ji, stood up and said, "All the ministers agree, so that's it. It was getting late, so Pan Yin ordered the Huangmen to light up the lanterns and hold the umbrellas, and send all the ministers back to their homes. "
Yuan Ji was stunned. The Yushitai and the Shangshutai were juxtaposed. The chief official, Yushi Zhongcheng, had great power. Was it such an easy decision?
As he stood up, he secretly looked anxiously at Yuan Wei at the front.
Yuan Wei leaned on crutches and stood up slowly without saying a word.
Ding Gong, Liu Hong, Wang Yun and others glanced at Yuan Wei's indifferent expression and felt secretly happy. After being suppressed by the Yuan family for so long, they finally took a breath today!
Liu Bian was the first to go out. The rain outside was no longer so heavy. Huang Wan was still standing in the court, with his hair covering his face, soaked to the skin, and in a state of embarrassment washed away by the heavy rain.
Liu Bian stood under the eaves, expressionless, looking at him coldly.
Huang Wan was already frightened. Facing Liu Bian's cold gaze, he trembled all over and became unsteady. He staggered and fell into the rain with a thud.
When Ding Gong, Liu Hong and others saw Huang Wan's appearance, their faces changed slightly, they opened their mouths, then shut them suddenly, realizing something, they glanced at Yuan Wei from the corner of their eyes.
Yuan Wei leaned on a crutch and clenched his right hand quietly. Except for the straight corners of his thin face, there was no trace of anger or other emotions.
Yuan Ji lowered his head, his eyes alternated with fear and uneasiness, and his heart was trembling.
Liu Bian snorted in his heart, ignored Huang Wan who fell to the ground, and turned to leave.
When Zuo Li saw Liu Bian leaving, he waved his hand indifferently. A guard rushed over, picked up Huang Wan and dragged him outside.
In Ding Palace, Liu Hong and others glanced at Yuan Wei again, and under the protection of the Yellow Gate and the Forbidden Army, they left the palace one after another.
Wang Yun was not alone this time. He was walking among the crowd. There were people in front and behind him. He thought about Liu Bian's instructions for him to write a letter to Zhang Wen. His face remained unchanged and he couldn't help but feel complacent in his heart.
'I, Wang Yun, will eventually be able to do something! '
After thinking for a while, he looked at Yuan Wei in front of him again, a chill flashing in his eyes.
After leaving the palace, everyone dispersed and returned to their homes.
Yuan Ji did not get on Yuan Wei's carriage, but turned around and quietly came to Huang Wan's mansion.
Huang Wan was lying on the bed, with lingering fear in his heart and a pale face. The fear in his eyes looking at the roof did not fade away for a long time.
Liu Bian's cold gaze kept appearing in front of his eyes.
