Chapter 151 It's Done

"...Liu Yuanqi has not yet become an official, and has a son Liu Tao, whose courtesy name is Deran." Zong Zheng read the genealogy, and Liu Hong was idle and calculated his seniority slightly.

After counting Liu Tao's generation, he smiled and said, "So, it's my clan's brother... I asked my father to send someone to Zhuo County. I want to know about Liu Tao's character."

Although Zuo Feng briefly introduced Liu Tao's record, he did not investigate carefully and boasted about who can't do this thing. At the same time, it is not ruled out that Zuo Feng won the advantage of others and deliberately exaggerated it.

"Your Majesty has ruined my servant." Zhang Rang looked frightened when he heard Liu Hong call him "Rang's father".

In the second year of Guanghe, the Sili School Magistrate Yang Qiu took advantage of Wang Fu's vacation to impeach him and then killed him. In the fourth year of Guanghe, Cao Jie also "died" as a bargaining chip for compromise. The eunuchs at that time really felt like they were in danger of peace.

Until the fifth year of Guanghe, Liu Hong was completely disappointed with the aristocratic families and the gentry and had to support them. In order to ensure insurance, he had to declare to the public that "Zhang Rang is my father and Zhao Zhong is my mother."

Although he protected him and Zhao Zhong to the greatest extent, he was also accused of being unfilial by the gentry, especially Empress Dowager Dong is still alive.

In the future, although they would say that in front of others from time to time, Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong could not take this sentence seriously.

After replying to that sentence, Zhang Rang went down obediently and sent someone to Zhuo County to investigate Liu Tao's situation. He rushed forward, especially in this case, he would basically arrive in Zhuo County within two or three days, and there would be accurate news within ten days.

"Wine is a good wine..." Liu Hong poured himself a glass of wine and savored it carefully. The flavor was indeed better.

It was a word from the Western Jin Dynasty that scarcity was precious, but Liu Hong knew this concept very well. After all, in order to subsidize the household income, he went through business with his mother when he was young. Although it was better to see wine, it was not worth it.

A bottle of fifty guan should be the limit, after all, there are about thirty guans overflows. As Zuo Feng said, the rarity of this wine is only about twenty guans.

But drinking it yourself will not be a big problem. The wine tastes better, and he likes it too. Especially when it is easy to get drunk, he prefers it. It is best to be drunk, and he doesn't have to worry about anything or have a headache.

"Liu Tao said it was brewed by his brother's family, right?" Liu Hong quickly thought of what Zuo Feng said.

"Yes, I heard that Liu Tao's brother Zhang Fei, his family is the largest wine and meat merchant in Zhuo County." Zuo Feng replied quickly.

"Zhang's family in Zhuo County, yes, they were a big merchant in wine and meat from the beginning..." Liu Hong recalled for a moment, and seemed to remember that there was a big merchant. He was from Hejian, Jizhou, and Zhuo County was Lin County. How could he not know about Zhang's family in Zhuo County?

After all, I seemed to have had wine there when I was a child, and I really miss it.

"That Zhang Fei seemed to be under Liu Tao's command, commanding the cavalry." Seeing Liu Hong's expression of emotion, Zuo Feng took advantage of the situation and said Zhang Fei's situation, "Liu Taoyan, his righteous brother, has the courage to be unworthy of thousands of men."

"It probably was an exaggeration, but it should be quite brave." Zhao Zhong replied calmly and said to himself: How much did Zuo Feng collect Liu Tao cost and said so many good things for him.

Even Bi Lan, who was beside him, looked thoughtful, but when he thought of the wine, his face did not look ugly.

"Let's see if Liu Tao is really that powerful." Liu Hong just listened to the fun and didn't care too much, "By the way, since this wine is brewed by Zhangjia, it tastes good, so it's included in the tribute!"

He felt that Liu Tao could bring out so much wine should be the result of discussion with the Zhang family. The Zhang family should also bring out so much wine to create the name of "Wine Fairy Brew".

The key is that this wine is indeed good, at least there is no other wine yet, as strong and mellow as it. It is not bad to give it a title of "tribute" for this.

"I think that the Zhang family of Zhuo County should be grateful to Your Majesty." Zhao Zhong said flatteringly.

He did not expect that with this opportunity, the wine fairy wine would become a tribute. One of the same products would become a tribute. Unless it was disqualified, it would be difficult to allow other brands to become tributes.

In a sense, it also protects the wine fairy wine. Even if other brands appear, the wine fairy wine is still the most valuable among high-quality wines... Originally, he had to discuss with Zhang Rang and find a way to get the wine brewing formula.

It is still valuable to get it now. But when the wine fairy wine becomes a tribute, other wines will not be that valuable.

The matter came to an end here. Liu Hong finally let both Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong back and drank in the palace.

The strong wine entered his throat, and Liu Hong, who was used to low-alcohol wine, was still a little uncomfortable. He put down his wine glass, looked at the wine pot of the wine fairy, and muttered: "The scholarly family is not trustworthy, where are the clan relatives?"

King Chen Liu Chong recruited soldiers in the county, and his troops had reached 100,000. After the Battle of Changshe, Huangfu Song passed by Chen State and learned about this situation. He also reported to him about this matter.

No matter what the reason a prince gathers 100,000 people for a reason, there is no way to report this matter.

At that time, Liu Hong thought that the name Liu Chong was familiar. After asking, he found out that this fool was almost given two prime ministers in Xiping in the second year of Xiping. He was punished for rebellion, and he was pardoned by himself. This time, I am afraid that he was cheated by the prime minister again?

After the follow-up report, he learned that Liu Chong was just gathering refugees and maintaining local public security, and there was nothing to do with it, so he simply ignored it.

Unexpectedly, after just over ten days, I heard of another clan relative named Liu Tao. Liu Chong was the hereditary King Chen, but this man only had the title of a clan relative. However, he made a lot of contributions along the way, but he took a little higher glance.

"Shi Zhong Liu Dai, the marquis of the Northern Army, Liu Biao, the idle Liu Yu, the governor of Youzhou, Liu Yan... Speaking of Liu Dai's younger brother Liu Yao, there were also recommendations from the local area before." Liu Hong weighed carefully.

Officials of the eunuchs have been slandered by scholars and have no place to turn over. However, clan relatives and aristocratic families must be afraid of being framed. However, clan relatives are not as good as eunuchs and cannot be used entirely for him.

"Hahaha... I am alone, I am alone..." Liu Hong laughed at himself, picked up the wine pot and continued to pour wine for himself.

About an hour later, Zuo Feng asked someone to give Jian Yong of the Hero Building four words: The matter has been done.

Just like that? Jian Yong was a little confused. The affairs in these palaces were so concise and clear. The question was that the eunuch who came out to report the message went back after saying these four words. He had no choice but to ask further...

"Good peace of mind. Although those scholars say that eunuchs are greedy for money and are not kind, this may be true, but they also have an advantage." A figure next to Jian Yong said, "That means that if you collect money, you will really do good things for you."

Personality is no longer valuable, and faith must be valuable, otherwise who else is willing to give money?

"So that's it. Thank you for the reminder of the post." Jian Yong suddenly realized and hurriedly bowed to the man.

This person was also the owner of the Hero Building, and he was also the president of the Rangers Guild. His surname was Wang and his name was Yue. But he didn't expect that Wang Yue knew so well about the situation in the palace, especially the eunuchs.
