In the second year of Zhongping (AD 185), Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty ordered his ministers to build the Wanjin Hall in Xiyuan, and move all the national property and money stored by Sinong into the Wanjin Hall and take possession of it.
In the third year of Zhongping (AD 186), Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty ordered the restoration of the Nangong Palace, which was destroyed by fire the previous year.
After two years of hard work, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty found that the court had no money again. When repairing the Nangong Palace, he had already levied a lot more taxes on the people all over the world, because this incident triggered many civil unrests. The most important thing is that
The people of the world no longer have any extra money for Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to collect.
For the sake of money, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty issued an edict in 187 AD: Anyone who has served as a senior official with military merit should be eliminated. Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty wanted to eliminate all those who had been promoted to official positions due to military merit since the Yellow Turban Uprising. Liu Bei was about to eliminate them.
middle.
When Chen Meng heard the news, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed. In the past few years, Chen Meng felt that his eldest brother had become addicted to this county captain and had forgotten his lofty aspirations and aspirations. Seeing Liu Bei in Anxi County
Based on the performance of the county lieutenant, Chen Meng believed that if there had been no Han Ling Emperor and no postal supervisor in history, then Liu Bei would probably have been just a county lieutenant.
Thank you, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty! Thank you, Supervisor!
After the edict of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was issued to the Zhongshan Kingdom, the Prime Minister of the Zhongshan Kingdom was immediately ecstatic. This time he finally had a reason to punish Liu Bei. The Prime Minister of the Zhongshan Kingdom felt itchy with hatred when he thought of Liu Bei.
Since Liu Bei became the county captain of Anxi County, he has managed the security of Anxi County in an orderly manner. In these troubled times, Anxi County has almost kept its doors open at night, which makes other county captains in Zhongshan look like fools.
, causing other county captains to complain every day, and some even said they were ashamed to be with Liu Bei.
What's even more annoying is that after Liu Bei took office, he actually had no offense against Minqiu and did not take bribes or bend the law. Since Liu Bei took office, he has never shown filial piety to him, the Prime Minister of Zhongshan. This made the Prime Minister of Zhongshan immediately feel that Liu Bei was
Blocking one's own financial path. Blocking other people's financial path is like killing one's parents!
The Prime Minister of Zhongshan State, who had a grudge against Liu Bei for killing his parents, tried countless ways to get rid of Liu Bei, the county captain. However, the literary ones could not find Liu Bei's handle, and the military ones could not defeat Liu Bei, who had three hundred soldiers.
.
The edict of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty finally provided the Prime Minister of Zhongshan with a great opportunity to punish Liu Bei. After receiving the imperial edict, the Prime Minister immediately ordered the inspectors to supervise the posts of subordinate officials and go to Anxi County to convey the imperial decree to Liu Bei.
Then let Liu Bei, who had nothing wrong with Minqiu and was not corrupt or bend the law, step down.
After receiving the order, the Postal Supervisor did not stop at all and hurriedly rushed to Anxi County. After all, this was a great opportunity to make a fortune.
Liu Bei has also learned that the governor is coming to Anxi County, and he also knows the purpose of the governor's visit. However, Liu Bei is not worried that he will be eliminated by Sha, because Liu Bei knows that he will be in Anxi County in the past few years.
The public security management of Liu Bei was in good order, and the people in the county praised him highly. Liu Bei believed that his political achievements could be seen by the court. This time when the governor came here, he just happened to show his achievements to the governor. He might not be sure.
In the future, you will be able to rise higher.
Liu Bei had already thought about it. After Du You arrived in Anxi County, he would personally meet Du You and have a good conversation with him.
After Duyou arrived in Anxi County, he checked directly into the Anxi County Inn. The arrival of Duyou made the officials in Anxi County suddenly feel nervous and excited.
Postal inspectors are specialized in supervising and supervising lower-level officials. This is directly related to promotion and dismissal. Such people should not be currying favor with them.
After the governor came to Anxi County, he did one thing. He asked his servants to spread the news that he was at the inn. Then he drank some wine and ate side dishes at the inn, and found a few escorts to sit quietly.
Waiting for the arrival of Anxi County officials.
After the news that the governor was at the inn came out, officials at all levels in Anxi County began to rush to the inn. The inn, which was usually almost empty, was now overcrowded.
The officials who walked out of the governor's residence had different expressions. Some were smiling happily, some were bowing their heads in deep thought, and some were depressed.
After Liu Bei learned that Du You was at the inn, he began to prepare what he needed to bring to meet Du You. However, others brought only money, but Liu Bei brought only work records of the past few years.
Liu Bei took Chen Meng to the inn. After telling the governor's slave his name and official position, the servant went in and reported to the governor. After a while, the slave came out and said to Liu Bei and Liu Bei:
"The governor is feeling ill today and will not see anyone for the time being."
When Liu Bei heard this, he felt strange.
"Didn't the governor see people all the time yesterday? Why are you sick today?"
"If you are sick, you are sick. Come back another day!"
Liu Bei and Chen Meng had no choice but to leave first. Chen Meng knew the whole reason, but Liu Bei had no idea at all.
"Brother! Why are you leaving? Charge in and beat him!"
When the servant saw Liu Bei leaving, he turned around and returned to the house.
"Is Liu Bei gone?"
"Let's go!"
"Huh! You don't have any money to show your respect to your superior, and you still want to be an official. It's really weird."
For two consecutive days, Liu Bei brought Chen Meng to the inn, but the slave told him that the governor was ill and refused to let Liu Bei in to see the governor.
On the third day, Liu Bei came early and saw a man walking out of the governor's residence happily. He thought that he would definitely see the governor this time. But after Liu Bei reported to the slave, the slave said again
:
"The governor is ill now. He can't see anyone."
When Liu Bei heard this, he was furious. If he wasn't angry anymore, he would no longer be Emperor Zhaolie of Shu Han.
"Someone just walked out of the governor's office, why didn't the governor see me? When Bei was an official, he was harmless to the people, and the people in the territory stayed open at night. Why did the governor turn a blind eye to such achievements! Is it because I, Liu Bei, don't respect money?"
"Brother, why don't we rush in and question the postal supervisor face to face?" Chen Meng continued to fan the flames next to Liu Bei.
"Fourth brother, go get someone to open the door that's blocking me. If anyone dares to stop me, I'll beat them up."
"Okay!"
Chen Meng happily ran out of the post house. In the blink of an eye, Chen Meng came in angrily with a dozen strong soldiers who had been following them.
"Brother, people are here."
When the servant saw Liu Bei summoning so many people at once, he immediately panicked.
"My whole life is to supervise the postal service. I'm not afraid of you!"
"Open the door for me!" Liu Bei shouted loudly and angrily.
After Liu Bei shouted, Chen Meng took the lead and walked towards the door of the room where the governor was.
The slave tried to stand in front of the gate to stop him. But when he saw four big men who had served as soldiers and killed people suddenly appearing, he was so frightened that his pants got wet. He kept shouting for mercy.
, spare your life.
Chen Meng came to the door, turned sideways and bumped towards the door. This chapter has been completed!
