"Master Fu, everyone has arrived." Yinci bowed in front of the carriage and said.
Qin Liang just arrived in his yard, bent down from the back of the car, turned his head and glanced at Yin Ci, cupped his hands and said, "Okay."
He and Lingjun have been living in the Wang family's residence for several months. They rarely return to this courtyard recently, but Wang Kang and others usually still live here.
"We are in the upper room, and the servants have already prepared a banquet. The king's servants ordered people to buy wine and meat and bring them to the kitchen." Yinci added.
Qin Liang's second sentence was also very simple: "Very good."
Brother Yinci and Wang Kang are more reliable in handling matters. They don't need Qin Liang to explain carefully what to do, they will arrange it themselves.
Qin Liang didn't say much, and walked into the upper room. The seven people kneeling in the outer room seemed a bit crowded, and the banquet was very close to each other. The room was not very big, and Qin Liang's bed was used to hold the banquet.
was moved away.
Several people drinking tea soup stood up from the mats one after another, looked at Qin Liang and bowed to him: "Fu Jun." "Greetings to Mr. Fu..."
Qin Liang immediately put away the expression that he was still thinking about just now, and a smile appeared on his face.
As he turned around, he returned salutes to the people. They were all people he knew in Huainan. Qin Liang said: "This situation reminds me of that night last year, on the east bank of Shaopi, when the Quan Cong Army's offensive was blocked.
"Zu, Qin Huang was killed by the formation, we returned to the camp to meet each other, and by the firelight, we saw the same scene between each other."
Yang Wei and other big men suddenly laughed, and the atmosphere in the room became a little warmer. Someone said: "The Lord Fu also composed a poem, drinking wine, I can't remember it all."
"Everyone, take your seats." Qin Liang gestured.
At this time, Yinci came in, pulled away the tung oil cloth in the corner, and then opened the boxes one by one. The gold cakes, copper coins, and silk in the boxes were quickly exposed. Everyone's eyes were brightened.
The sparkling scene attracted everyone's attention.
Qin Liang cupped his hands and said, "Thanks to you for not giving up, I have prepared some accommodation expenses for the generals."
Yang Wei, who had a big face, big eyes and thick lips, had the highest position in the Chinese and foreign armies. He immediately returned the courtesy and said: "No! Please take back Cheng's life. The servants cannot accept this money. I heard that the money is from joining the army."
The prince borrowed it from his father-in-law, how can the servants be greedy for money?"
Qin Liang said disapprovingly: "Everyone has seen Zhuo Jing's grandfather, Governor Wang. Is the Wang family short of this little money? I borrowed my own money and didn't have to pay it back. But I can pay it back if I do. The palace will pay it back regularly."
Reward me with property. General Yang and others need not refuse."
In fact, Qin Liang never likes to brag. But as soon as he entered the house today, he first hinted that he was in Huainan, training and fighting, and how good he was. He also said that his in-laws, the Wang family, were a rich and powerful family, and also mentioned that he had a relationship with him in the palace.
relation.
These words are really helpless. Sometimes modesty is not suitable for all occasions. Who doesn’t want to follow a company boss who has the ability, strength, connections and future? Is there anything that is best put on the table directly so that everyone can
A little hopeful.
Then Qin Liang made a touched expression, looked back and said: "I also know that after you leave the Chinese and foreign armies, you will not be able to find a good place to go. If you come and join me, you can only make do as a school official for the time being. The salary is not high, so why not?"
You can't lead troops. You still don't give up. This is friendship."
At this time, Xiong Shou, who was covered in muscles all over his body, said: "I was relieved of my duties today, and the Lord immediately called for me. I wanted to look elsewhere, but it was too late."
"Hahaha..." The upper room burst into laughter.
When the laughter subsided, Yang Wei said seriously: "The Lord of the Palace will summon you immediately to appease the servants. This is because the Lord of the Palace thinks highly of the servants."
Qin Liang said calmly: "General Yang is right. If a big family recruits you and makes you a general, you won't be treated badly. But have you ever thought about it? Each family has its own people, and the big family originally
The generals, maybe their ancestors have been with the master's family, so they are our own people. In the past, no matter how good you were, you were always an outsider."
The truth is actually very simple, and it makes sense. Everyone nodded in agreement.
Qin Liang said: "But it's different here. I've had life-and-death friendships with you generals. Come here, can I still treat my own people badly?"
Having said this, most of the ancients did not have the temperament to calculate interests. Yang Wei took the lead and knelt down, followed by several generals. Yang Wei said: "When a servant is like a bereaved dog, he has been appreciated by the Lord Meng, and he has given generous gifts of money and official positions.
From now on, my servants are willing to be the vanguard of the government and do the hard work of the dogs and horses, and I will not hesitate to do it!" Everyone said together: "I will not hesitate to do it to the ground!"
Qin Liang suddenly burst out laughing. He stepped forward and personally helped Yang Wei and others up, and said: "A friend in need is a friend indeed, and a horse's power is known from a distance. Please get up quickly. Call Wang Wuji, spare Dashan, and bring up the wine and meat."
Yinci said: "Here."
After a while, the three people in the Qin family's yard brought the food. Dong was also in the yard, but she was busy in the kitchen and was not responsible for serving food. After all, Wang Kang was also an official now, so it was impossible to ask his wife here again.
kind of occasion.
After pouring the first glass of wine, Qin Liang took the upper position and said: "I am the school official now, so I can only let you be the school officials first. I will make you feel wronged for the time being." After that, he drank a drink first.
After drinking a glass of wine, Qin Liang thought to himself: Now we just need to wait for the post of governor. When the time comes, it will no longer be difficult to restore the military positions of these people to the original levels of Chinese and foreign armies.
Everyone raised their heads and drank the wine from their glasses, and Yang Wei said: "It's okay if you don't want to be a general of the Chinese and foreign armies. Now the servants can bring their families over. We don't have to be reunited with each other once in a year and a half like before."
Qin Liang nodded and said: "That's why I have to prepare a living allowance for you to settle down in Luoyang and purchase additional expenses. Tomorrow you will go to the school affairs office to register your name and record your official position. Then you can go back.
Go home, bring your family members to Luoyang, and report to the school affairs office before April 20th."
All the generals clasped their fists and said, "Here!"
Everyone continued to drink and eat meat in this not-so-spacious room, chatting happily.
In fact, Qin Liang has always kept a low profile in Luoyang, but this time he was very courageous and recruited six or seven Chinese and foreign military generals at once. Mainly because the opportunity was rare and he missed this time. If he wants to recruit these people in the future, he will
not easy.
Moreover, the Sima family seems to be trembling with fear recently, fearing that Cao Shuang is plotting to launch a coup. Cao Shuang doesn't seem to care about Qin Liang doing such a thing. The two families are staring at each other, and it is estimated that no one cares. Qin Liang accepted a few people who were dismissed.
The general arrived at the school affairs office.
What's more, the School Affairs Office has recently added new businesses and is also recruiting manpower. It is normal for retired military generals from Chinese and foreign armies who have martial arts skills and can control soldiers to be favored by the School Affairs Office.
However, according to the public information collected by the undercover agents of the school affairs office from the Chinese and foreign armies, many generals who have been dismissed recently are in contact with the same family, known as the Yingchuan Cai family. The Yingchuan Cai family is unknown in the current Wei Dynasty.
Cai Wenji's family is not from Yingchuan either. Qin Liang guessed that she might be from the Sima family.
…
However, Cao Shuang's government has not been plotting a political coup recently, but it is planning to raise an army to conquer Shu in order to establish its prestige in the world. This matter is at the stage of discussion by a few people, so outsiders do not know about it.
The person who came up with the idea was Deng Yang, a famous general in the Han Dynasty. His friend Li Sheng later joined this idea.
Because Taiwei Manchong died suddenly last year, Cao Xi took up the post of leading general in February this year. Sima Yi immediately proposed to attack Wancheng, and had already convinced the courtiers to lead his army south this winter when the river was dry. So Cao Shuang's Mansion also
Not to be outdone, the plan for the war against Shu may have to be advanced.
Zhao Yan, the governor of Guanzhong, is already over seventy years old, older than Wang Ling, the governor of Yangzhou. If Cao Shuang asked Zhao Yan to return to Luoyang and give him a high-status official position to provide for his retirement, Zhao Yan would be very happy. As soon as Zhao Yan was transferred, Cao Shuang's mansion
Just in time to seize the military power in Guanzhong in the name of conquering Shu.
Deng Yang's conspiracy seems to be a clever plan that kills two birds with one stone.
