"Why are you okay?" Xi Zhicai felt that it shouldn't be the case. Zhang Han's wife was still the lord's daughter.
Moreover, wouldn’t the eldest master inform him in advance?
This is all without a backyard fire.
The same goes for Dian Wei. If I remember correctly, his wife is the legitimate daughter of a certain lineage of the Xiahou family. She has a temper like a leopard and a tigress. She doesn't say anything to him?
What about filial piety? Fengxiao can save it.
Oh, he doesn't have a wife...
Xi Zhicai fell into deep thought, thinking about what marriage had brought to him.
Then I shivered for a while in front of the door. It was really cold. I quickly asked Zhang Han for a cloak to put on.
Several people quickly entered the mansion and cooked fish in a big pot in the front yard. As soon as the atmosphere became warm, he naturally stopped being cold.
When Guo Jia arrived with Cao Ang from the Prime Minister's Mansion, the entire front yard was about to become noisy.
Guo Jia, with black robe and black hair, was handsome and handsome. He looked proud as soon as he came in. He glanced at Zhang Han, Dian Wei, Xi Zhicai, etc., shook his head and said: "Oh, go to Lefang Yashe, and you can actually give me..." You who claim to be the enemy of ten thousand people, the country's warriors, and good planners are forced to go down the river and up the mountain."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
"What are you talking about!" Zhang Han and Dian Wei's expressions changed drastically at the same time, and they looked around to see if anyone else heard them.
"We are all our own people. Who will listen to you? I am really convinced. Are you so scared?"
"Of course you don't know if you don't marry me!" Zhang Han grinned, but he was not nervous at all. In fact, he was not particularly afraid.
Mainly, I can't stand the flickering eyes of Miss Cao Xian at home. They are so smart and clear, as if nothing can be hidden from her. She also likes to pretend not to know, staring at you and blinking questions.
After being asked, she couldn't help but joke all night long. Zhang Han was speechless when she was asked, so she could only teach her hard with sticks.
Guo Jia pouted: "I'm not afraid even if you marry her."
"Tsk, remember what you said."
…
The evening banquet became more lively after Yang Xiu arrived. Guo Jia asked if the flowers bloomed last night, but Yang Xiu remained silent, claiming that the fish bone had been stuck all night.
In the middle of the night, Sanmou finally got down to business.
Zhang Han took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Guo Jia and Xi Zhong to read.
After the two of them looked at it, they spread the word loudly to many of their confidants.
"Guandu, Baimajin, and Yanjin can all garrison troops. At three of them, Yuan Shao has already started building military camps and hoarding grain and grass."
"The next step is to check the grain road route. I have been to northern Hebei and came back on foot, in a carriage, and by water, so I know it very well." Guo Jia said this and took a sip of wine to moisten his throat. , then said: "Good wine."
"Hurry up! The most annoying thing is half-talking about what kind of wine is good," Zhang Han urged with a displeased look on his face.
"Grain road planning, there are several waterways in Jizhou from north to south, from west to east, these can transport grain and grass. I predict that Yuan Shao will build a grain road that gathers several rivers within a few years, and then store it in Liyang In order to fight us in Guandu."
"If we lose on this battlefield, we must defend Dongjun and Hanoi before we have a chance to turn around, but Xudu will also be in danger."
"If we win, we must prevent Yuan Shao from entering Liyang and guarding it with heavy troops. Otherwise, it will be difficult to capture the city even if we win."
"This information is very timely. We can set up food roads along the way to prevent the establishment of a front line. According to the intelligence, Yuan Shao must take these three places."
"In this way, we can send troops to three places and directly enter our territory of Guandu."
"Alternatively, we can take the white horses and garrison troops, and then go to Guandu to suppress them. In this way, each side can attack with troops and threaten the west side of our army at any time. Or, we can attract troops from Liangzhou and Bingzhou."
"The military newspaper also said that many Wuhuan thieves were seen in Jizhou, which means that the relationship between Wuhuan and the Yuan family is already an alliance."
"We have known this before," Xi Zhicai looked around and said with a smile: "The school affairs office once obtained some secret information in Lefang Yashe. Wuhuan's new Shanyu Tadun helped Yuan Shao defeat Gongsun Zan. , so the emperor granted him the title of Chanyu, but Xu Du did not receive the memorial, so it should be Yuan Shao who issued the imperial edict."
"In this case, I can guess that although Yuan Shao said that he would not attack or antagonize me, and he was still respectful in his appearance, he must be secretly recruiting allies and waiting for the opportunity."
"Bo Chang, what you said before seems more and more likely to happen now..." Xi Zhicai looked at Zhang Han solemnly.
Although Huang Wan's son and the imperial doctor Ji Ping were targeted in advance, as well as many doctors from the imperial hospital, the medicinal materials were strictly supervised.
But after all, it is done in secret, and it is really impossible to guard against it. No one can 100% guarantee that he will be safe in a calculated and unintentional assassination.
Zhang Han's expression faded and he nodded solemnly: "The immediate plan is to follow our previous plan. We will first set up official rewards for the doctors who provided the disaster relief, and gradually put them into the imperial hospital. The original imperial doctors can be replaced."
"And this time, several important positions in the imperial censorship are also vacant. We have to find someone to fill them. The most important thing is that all the officials who were previously found to be in contact with Yuan Shao cannot be killed..."
Zhang Han looked at Guo Jia and Xi Zhong, who both nodded and said with a smile: "It's the same as my lord thought."
"My lord did not wash out the court with blood. The few people who stood firm have been dealt with in prison. The remaining people are still willing to exchange letters with Yuan Shao and send them to Jizhou, but every letter will pass through our hands. "
"Great," Zhang Han nodded assuredly. Boss Cao is still smart and will not be easily burdened by emotions...
"Bo Chang, you can rest assured to rest in Dali Temple for half a year. You can use it at any time in the future. There will definitely be great achievements waiting for you," Xi Zhicai handed it down. Seeing that Zhang Han was still the same as before, he was worried that he was actually feeling disappointed.
After all, I could go to court before, but now I can't even participate in court meetings because of my official position. I have to listen to news from others every day.
"That's right," Dian Wei smiled proudly, held up his glass of wine and said, "How can my talents as a prince be buried? You don't have to worry."
"Drink, drink, it's time to rest this winter. Oh, I've been in the army for half my life, so let me enjoy it too."
Zhang Han looked at Dian Weiden and smiled, nodded and praised: "That's right! Let's play music and dance!"
…
In the winter of the third year of Jian'an, at the end of the year, doctors from all over the world were recruited by the Prime Minister's Office for their achievements in disaster relief. They established various imperial medical offices and became officials in the court.
From bottom to top, the salary range is from 300 to 800 dan. Cao Cao can be said to have greatly improved the status of doctors in the world.
This aroused criticism from many scholars, but it soon dissipated, because the imperial doctors who were originally among the scholars advocated in the court for involuntary treatment and eviction for disaster relief, and the plans they gave were unable to treat these hundreds of thousands of refugees.
In the end, this achievement was achieved by the folk doctors, and they were also responsible for the hard work. Now that I have received this favor, others can't say anything cool in the long run.
Because there is no confidence to stand on.
Therefore, the Imperial Medical Office naturally set up more than a thousand people to treat the illnesses of officials and their families in various departments. The number of people coming and going became more and more, which led to some people who were originally loyal to Yuan Yidang and did not dare to interact with Yuan Yidang anymore.
They only talked with each other on weekdays after the court meeting, so Cao Cao secretly obtained more intelligence information.
After the New Year's Eve, some secret information came from Jizhou again, and Cao Cao also ordered to send envoys to Jizhou to handle matters.
Zhang Han arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion with the intelligence and walked onto the school grounds. He saw a group of people trotting along carrying food, wine and food.
He pulled over a chamberlain who was leading the way and asked, "Where are you sending this to?"
"Send it to General Zuo's residence. The Prime Minister said that the venison is fresh and tender and the most delicious thing in the world. It will be sent to General Zuo's residence together with Qiaoguo's fine wine. Let your servants lead the cooks and stoves to send it to General Zuo. Don't let it cool down."
General Zuo?
Oh, the new left general Liu Xuande.
Zhang Han waved his hand and secretly exclaimed: "Let's do this again."
Dian Weileng said: "Why are you saying it again? The Prime Minister has done this before?"
Zhang Han curled his lips and said, "Let's go in and order some, and we'll share half of it when we meet."
"This is a way to win people's hearts. I guess the prime minister is still thinking about Duke Xuande's second brother."
"Okay," Dian Wei nodded, becoming interested as soon as he heard this.
The two gathered their emotions and slowly walked into the main hall with a sad face. As soon as they entered, Cao Cao waved and said at the same time: "Bo Chang came just in time. Does the miracle doctor Hua Tuo really have the medical skills to bring the dead back to life? Why do I feel like a liar?"
"He said that medication can only suppress my headache, and the only way to eradicate it is to open my head."
Zhang Han was stunned for a moment and asked hurriedly: "Then, how did the lord answer?"
"Kick him out," Cao Cao tapped the document with an annoyed look on his face, "He made great contributions to disaster relief in Xuzhou, and it was Yuncheng who worked hard to get him to stay and serve."
"I cannot punish, but I am not angry in my heart."
The key thing is that now I am a benevolent and loyal minister, a highly respected prime minister who is deeply trusted by me. Of course, I cannot punish harshly at will.
Zhang Han's face turned serious, and he immediately cupped his hands and said, "Please Prime Minister send gold and silver cloth immediately to apologize to Mr. Hua Tuo."
"Mr. Hua Tuo has treated many people by boiling hemp and dispersing it, opening bones, skulls, and abdomens. This medical skill is astonishing. Few people believe it in the world, but it is not unknown."
"Moreover, craniotomy is indeed very risky, and there is no guarantee that it will be possible. The prime minister can talk to you sincerely, and there is no risk in doing craniotomy, but just medical care."
If there is wind in his brain, it is probably a tumor. With their medical skills and the use of medicine to nurse him back to health, Cao Cao still has decades to live.
Cao Cao thought for a long time and said in a deep voice: "He also said that if you want to preserve your life and live a long life, you should retreat to the mountains and forests and stop worrying about state affairs day and night."
"So, what do you think, Prime Minister?"
"No, how can I get used to living like that?" Cao Cao laughed. "Half of my body has been sacrificed by the army. I can bear the wind."
"Haha, even if I leave one day, I will still look at the great rivers and mountains and leave bravely."
"Okay, the Prime Minister has been majestic and majestic in his life, and his lofty sentiments dazzled my son-in-law," Zhang Han bowed with his hands raised.
Cao Cao looked at him deeply, sighed, and said to the guard on the side: "Send three hundred gold, five hundred bolts of cloth, and one hundred maids from the mansion to Mr. Hua Tuo to take care of his daily life, and send another hundred Yong Ding, please be at your service and apologize to sir for me."
"only."
After Su Wei left, Cao Cao calmed down his turbulent emotions, looked at Zhang Han calmly, and asked, "Why is Bo Chang here here?"
Zhang Han cupped his hands and said: "There is some news that should be informed immediately."
"Before the New Year's Eve, the bandits dispatched to Jizhou intercepted a sentry message, which was sent outside the customs."
"Yuan Shao was allying with the princes outside the pass and wooing them into an alliance. He did not respect the court's orders. After the uprising, he sent troops in the direction of Xudu."
"The princes outside the pass are now dominated by Ma Teng and Han Sui. The two have stopped their troops and made friends. They have gathered 200,000 people and tens of thousands of cavalry. They should not be underestimated."
"This is a letter," Zhang Han took it out of his arms and placed it in front of Cao Cao.
While he was looking at it, he said in passing: "Now the news network is all over Xudu, and we can get it at will if there is anything in it, but I don't know what this incident means."
"I still have that guess," Zhang Han said solemnly: "Yuan Shao, Xu Du Gongqing, etc. want to join forces to disrupt our Xudu territory."
In order to put an end to this kind of thing, the establishment of a medical official office and the recruitment of doctors into the court were already a countermeasure, and it has initially achieved results.
It also gained a large amount of public opinion and consolidated the prestige of the Prime Minister's Office.
Judging from the results, it should be a complete victory, so they will naturally be anxious.
"Previously, former Taiwei Yang Biao and Duke Xuande said that Dong Cheng and Fu Wan secretly had dead men in Xudu, and the so-called disaster should be blamed on their party."
"However, we still don't know who the specific purpose is."
The purpose of promoting disaster relief doctors is to eliminate the original imperial doctors in the palace, because they belong to the gentry clan and have long been infiltrated by the Dong and Fu clans.
The demoting of Zhang Han's official position was not only to make Jizhou stop paying attention to him, but also to allow him to live in seclusion so that his interests and powers would not conflict too much with the rebel party.
Cao Cao put down the letter at this moment, with a smile on his face and a very confident demeanor. He knocked on the document and said: "I have been claiming to be you before, but now it seems that the more information is revealed, the less trustworthy it becomes."
"Dong and Fu are also using the intelligence network we have set up to disrupt my eyes and ears."
"I think this target is definitely not you," Cao Cao said with a stern look on his face, "nor is it me. If it's Zixiu..."
Cao Cao also felt a little confused, "Zixiu is protected by you and Dian Wei. If the target is him, it will be even more difficult."
"So it should be someone whose status and status are not low, and who can cause shock in the court once he dies." Zhang Han thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Xuande?"
Cao Cao shook his head: "Although Xuande is famous, it is impossible to have such an influence."
"I guess it's either Zhicai or Fengxiao. If they die, I will lose a wing, and they will arouse my anger, and eventually the court will be bloody and I will be torn apart..."
Cao Cao became depressed. If it was for them, he might really do this.
Zhang Han's eyes suddenly trembled, his lips trembled a little, and he suddenly thought of something and said: "Xun Lingjun!!"
boom!
At this moment, a guard ran over from the lobby, with a panicked look on his face and sweating profusely.
Said: "Prime Minister, Prime Minister... last night, Shangshu Ling Xun Yu was stabbed in the mansion and was seriously injured!!"
"boom!!"
Cao Cao suddenly slapped the table and stood up, his whole back covered with cold sweat. He felt a sudden wind coming from his head, making him dizzy and unable to stand still.
"Quickly, please ask Mr. Hua Tuo and Mr. Zhongjing for treatment. Go to Xun Mansion immediately!"
Today, I pressed forward step by step, trying to force these people to take action, but I didn't expect that the target was half of their "own people". Xun Yu was honest and upright throughout his life, his heart was for the great man, and he was loyal to the emperor and the country!
But he also suffered from this murderous attack! ?
Cao Cao's anger suddenly filled his chest, and even Zhang Han did not dare to mention the venison just now.
Several people hurried to Xun Mansion and saw Xun You waiting at the door.
After Cao Cao arrived, Xun You immediately came up to him and whispered: "Prime Minister, don't worry, don't be angry, uncle has no fear for his life."
