Chapter 75 Rewards
In the court, in order to accept whether Ye Zhao had quit his military power and returned to his hometown to cultivate, he had been quarreling for three days without any result. In the end, Liu Bian decided to let Ye Zhao stay in Hulao Pass to recuperate. The military power was temporarily managed by Ye Zhao.
In his heart, Liu Bian obviously didn't want Ye Zhao to leave. It wasn't that he had any plans. After all, he was just a child in his early teens and didn't have many ideas. He just simply thought that Ye Zhao was a loyal minister, and it was always right to stay by his side.
The scholars and officials led by Yuan Wei unconditionally agreed to Liu Bian's first decision after ascending the throne. They now need Ye Zhao to stay and restrain Ye Zhao. Now Ye Zhao wants to withdraw, so he naturally does not agree.
He Jin was very satisfied with Ye Zhao's attitude. As for military power, now all military power in Luoyang is concentrated in him. Now Ye Zhao expressed to him that he would not fight for power in this way. Besides, this was the first decision after Liu Bian took office, and it was difficult for him to refuse as his uncle.
However, afterwards, Yuan Wei and others submitted a letter to grant Ye Zhao the title of General of Wei and Marquis of Ningxiang, which made He Jin feel a little confused.
The marquis of the Township is nothing. With Ye Zhao's current status and achievements, it is reasonable to be promoted to the marquis of the Township. However, the general of the Guard is only under the position of the General and the Three Dukes, and has the power to establish a government office. The official position under his command is appointed and removed without passing through the court. He can be directly rewarded. He only needs to report to the court afterwards. This will also mean that Ye Zhao has a high degree of autonomy. Even if the general He Jin is higher than Ye Zhao, he has no right to interfere in the affairs of the General Ye Zhao's Wei's Mansion. Although it can only be considered a false position now, Ye Zhao has soldiers and generals. With the name of the General of the Guard, Ye Zhao can recruit talents with justification, but his status has been improved.
But now that things have come to this point, seeing Yuan Wei and others eagerly praising Ye Zhao, He Jin felt that he should win over Ye Zhao, but there was some knots in his heart.
Five days later, Hulao Pass.
After receiving the emperor's edict, Ye Zhao thanked him with a sick look on his face and sent away the small yellow gate that came to pass the edict.
"Congratulations to the Lord, for being promoted to General of Guard!" Guan Hai and others began to congratulate Ye Zhao happily. The reason why one person was promoted to General of Guard was that he had been following Ye Zhao was naturally at the forefront.
"Since everyone is here, I will tell you about this matter. Now I have the right to open a government office and have the official position under my command. You have followed Ye Zhao for many years. No matter whether Ye is rich or poor, they have never abandoned each other. Now Ye Zhao is also brilliant. You will reward you according to your ability and great achievements." Ye Zhao smiled and looked at everyone. Since he had advanced, he should naturally be granted official positions to avoid the coldness of the hearts of the people.
At present, Ye Zhao first worshipped Xi Zhicai as a military advisor and sang all matters under the General Wei Mansion. Dian Wei and He Man were the chief and deputy commander of the Wei Bing, responsible for Ye Zhao'an, Zhao Yun, Fang Yue, Ji Ling, Guan Hai, Meng Hu, and Gao Sheng led the military commander. Ye Zhao's troops and horses are now dispersed again and divided into five camps. Zhao Yun, Fang Yue, Ji Ling, Guan Hai, and Meng Hu each led one battalion. Gao Sheng did not lead the military commander. The person was not capable enough. If he had not followed Ye Zhao earlier, he would not have been assigned to this official position.
Ding Li is now far away in Hanzhong and is under the position of the Chief Commander, so he no longer needs to be granted the title. In addition, Huang Shao was appointed as the chief clerk by Ye Zhao and Xiahou Lan was in charge of military discipline.
All the old subordinates were rewarded, and some of the excellent subordinates were promoted by Ye Zhao. After the reward was completed, Ye Zhaosurong looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Some words must be said before. I will govern the army, govern the government, and act in accordance with the law. No matter whoever touches the law, I hope you can remember this point. Otherwise, if I really touch the law, I will not blame me for not being merciful!"
"Don't worry, lord!" Everyone answered with a solemn expression.
Since Ye Zhao became the chief of Ma Cheng, he has been governing the army and governing the government according to law. Everyone has been under Ye Zhao's command for a long time, so naturally they also know Ye Zhao's rules. At this moment, there is no resistance and they all bow to agree.
After some rewards, no gifts and warnings, Ye Zhao ordered people to hold a banquet and have a banquet with the generals.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone let go. Even Zhao Yun, who was quite a bit of Confucian general in his daily life, was even more unruly under the leadership of a group of rough men such as Guan Hai, Dian Wei.
Seeing everyone's performance, Xi Zhicai smiled and looked at Ye Zhao and said, "My lord is now promoted to General Wei, and it is time to recruit some talents for his own use."
The talents mentioned by Xi Zhicai do not refer to military generals. Nowadays, there is no shortage of military generals under Ye Zhao. In addition, Ye Zhao is good at governing the army, and some young generals in the army have some methods. What Xi Zhicai said is also management talents.
Ye Zhao is now a person who walks with one leg. Although he is in a high position and has a great power, he is mainly military generals. He counts around the staff and staff, and only a few of them are Xi Zhicai, Qiu Chi, Huang Shao, and Man Chong have not yet fully applied for it, so he can only count half of them.
Even though Xi Zhicai and Man Chong are both top talents, Ye Zhao has been the first-class in strategy and internal affairs after so many years of training and experience accumulated in his previous life. However, such a lineup, coupled with the identity of General Ye Zhaowei, still looks thin and thin.
After all, what Ye Zhao has to do next is not just a court battle, but a look at the world. He needs talents who can conquer warriors, and what he needs more is to help him manage internal affairs, manage and stabilize local areas.
Ye Zhao also knew his shortcomings, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, "Looking at Luoyang, how many people are willing to use it for me?"
"There are always some. Although Luoyang is full of scholars, there are still some down-and-out scholars, or people who are as the lord said before, have lost their virtues." Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "With the lord's reputation and status now, if he is willing to meet, someone will definitely come to vote."
"Okay." Ye Zhao nodded when he heard this. He was planning to wait until he settled down before sending him out. However, it was a pity to keep the talent pool in Luoyang in front of him. He was going to send someone to Luoyang City to post a list article in a few days. At present, the top talents of the aristocratic families would not come to join him. Even if Ye Zhao put down his figure and looked around, he would also like to take care of the talents that Xi Zhicai mentioned, there was no need for Ye Zhao to invite them. As long as he expressed this intention, someone would naturally come to vote.
Just when Ye Zhao began to prepare for recruiting talents in the future, in Luoyang City, He Jin gathered Yuan Shao and others to discuss matters. Yes, because of Yuan Wei and others' "knowing" by Yuan Wei, He Jin naturally chose to forgive them. Now Yuan Shao and others are back under He Jin, and their status is not low.
In the brightly lit meeting room, a faint tea fragrance filled the room. He Jin leaned on the tiger-skin seat, frowned and thought about the matter, but Yuan Shao was talking passionately.
Simply put, it is about the Ten Constellations.
When Liu Hong was alive, it was undoubtedly the most glorious time for the Ten Constellations. Because of the emperor's favor, during Liu Hong's lifetime, the Ten Constellations were powerful and even forced He Jin to join forces with the scholars and seemed weak.
But once the emperor and the ministers, Liu Hong's body is not cold. The new emperor Liu Bian obviously does not favor the Ten Constellation Assassins as Liu Hong. Although he has not yet attacked the Ten Constellation Assassins, it is obviously the era of Ten Constellation Assassins and has never returned. Now the Ten Constellation Assassins are huddled in the palace and are extremely low-key. Since Liu Hong's death, he has rarely appeared. However, for He Jin and the scholars, it is obvious that they have not forgotten them because of this.
"Now that Zhang Rang and others have lost their power, why should they be so serious at first? Come on, don't lose the pleasure of drinking?" He Jin raised the wine cup and smiled at Yuan Shao.
Now he really doesn't take Zhang Rang and others seriously. Now he has the entire Luoyang in his control. Just ten eunuchs and a few eunuchs, without Liu Hong's guidance, he is really not a big deal. What qualifications do you have to compete with him?
"The General is such a bad word!" Wang Yun stood up at the right time and bowed to him, "Although the Ten Eternal Services have lost their favor now, there are so many sects and minions during his reign, and they bewitched the people of the world, which makes the people of the world live in poverty. Everyone in the world wishes to kill them. If the general can eliminate this harm for the people of the world, he will be supported by the people of the world!"
He Jin's heart was inexplicably shocked when he heard this. He was now a great minister, with great power in his hands, even surpassing the emperor. Once this man was out of shackles, his ambition would be like a wild horse that broke away from reins, especially He Jin was not a person who knew how to control his ambitions.
Some thoughts were not dared to be born when Liu Hong was alive because his status was given by Liu Hong, but now that Liu Hong is dead, the person sitting in that position is his nephew. He seems to be only one step away from that position. What he lacks now is reputation. Wang Yun's seemingly unintentional words made He Jin feel warm. If he kills the Ten Constant Assesses and serves the people of the world, the scholars will naturally have their reputation in addition to a vent of anger. With so many scholars, it would be easy to go further at that time?
"This..." He Jin hesitated: "The Ten Generals have been living in the palace for a long time. Although this general is in charge of the world's troops, he has not been summoned and cannot enter the palace without authorization."
He was still a little cautious in his heart. After all, even if He Jin wanted to do this, he had to do it perfectly and could not be deemed to the public. Last time he led his troops to the palace, he almost had the name of regicide, which made He Jin grow wise. After his initial heartbeat, he finally shook his head and said, "This matter is of great importance, and it's not too late for us to discuss it later."
Yuan Shao and Wang Yun looked at each other, and both of them saw that He Jin was already moved, so they no longer continued to persuade him. They just needed to keep fanning the flames and stir up the fire in He Jin's heart...
