Wuyue Prefecture Overseer
After bidding farewell to Wang Yun, I left Wang Yun's residence with the people around me. I went to the relay station with them to let everyone rest. After that, Dian Wei and I went to Yuan Kui's residence. I handed the name card to Yuan Kui, who went out with someone to invite me into the residence. Entering the inner hall, Yuan Kui introduced the person beside him,""This is my nephew, Yuan Shao. I'll be a lieutenant in the central army." Then, I greeted Yuan Shao.
Yuan Kui raised his head and asked me,"General, what brings you here?"”I won't say anything else but,"Yan Baihu, a bandit from Kuaiji, led a rebellion and killed Governor Li Yi. I have led the army to destroy them, and I have come to report to you. He should have gone to the central government first to meet according to the law. Firstly, it was already too late, and secondly, he heard that the capital had been in a storm recently. So I came first to inquire about Yuan Taifu. My father has always asked the Grand Tutor to take care of him, and now I also obey the Grand Tutor.”
"That's easy. You don't have to worry about what's happening in the capital. Go ahead and meet me according to the law, and I'll guarantee you'll be fine.”Yuan Kui nodded. "Thank you, my lord! I will take my leave." I said goodbye and left. He went to the central hall with Dian Wei to meet the Emperor tomorrow morning.
Then, he prepared to return to the relay station with Dian Wei. Dian Wei suddenly said that the Liquor worm was acting up and looked at me with a silly smile. I had no choice but to go to a restaurant with him. He ordered four dishes and two jars of rice wine and drank them. Halfway through the drink, someone at the next table sighed. I turned around and saw that it was Cao Cao. I quickly got up and cupped my fists." Uncle Meng De, do you still recognize me?”
Cao Cao raised his head and saw that it was me, so he invited me to sit down and asked me why I was here. I repeated Yan Baihu's words and asked softly,"Uncle, did you sigh just now because of your two uncles, Huangfu Song and Zhu Rong? Or was it because of the Ten Attendants causing chaos in the Imperial Court and poisoning the Situ?”
"Don't talk nonsense. Be careful and do your own thing. There are many eyes here.”Cao Cao looked around.
"Thank you for your reminder, uncle. That little nephew wants to ask you something. Do you know the whereabouts of Huangfu Song and Zhu Xi?”I lowered my head. "Lord Cheqi Huangfu, I don't know. Lord Zhu should be in the Chenliu area now. Why are you looking for the two of them?" Cao Cao frowned and asked. "I just wanted to greet the two uncles. There's nothing else.”I replied with a smile. After a while, Cao Cao declined and wanted to leave. We cupped our fists and Cao Cao left.
I returned to my table and continued drinking with Dian Wei. At this moment, someone walked over and cupped his fists."I accidentally overheard your conversation with Lord Cao, so I came here to meet you. Please forgive me for my presumptuous actions!”
I stood up and said,"I can't wait to welcome you. How dare I be so presumptuous?" Come sit down and drink with me." "Sorry to disturb you like this, but aren't you afraid that I'm a spy for the chamberlain?”This person said as he sat," If you didn't come to see me, you should have secretly returned to report. Besides, even if you were me, I wouldn't be afraid. At worst, I'll just kill my way out of the capital.”I drank quite a bit of wine, so I revealed my true nature and said disdainfully.
"How bold and heroic. May I ask your name?" That person asked loudly. "I dare not. My surname is He and my name is Qi. I'm still young and have no words. May I ask your name?”I shook my head.
"So you're the one who solved the siege of Moling, saved Shouchun, and killed General He Yi of the Yellow Turban Army. Yingchuan battle, poke Zhang Jiao, cut Zhang Liang, destroy the Yellow Turban; Then he defeated the rebels of Han Zhong and Zhao Hong in Wancheng. Mister He Qi, also known as He Junshi! How rude! My name is Chen Gong, the word Gongtai, Dongjun people.”the man said loudly.
"Mr. Chen, let's not be polite." If you have something to say, please say it directly." "Just now, I heard your conversation with your uncle and knew that you were righteous. Then I won't hide it from you. I came to the capital today to seek an official position. I didn't want the Shi Chang Shi to hold power and ask for bribes from me. I gave everything I had, but I was only given the position of a county magistrate. I wanted to go back obediently and be a good county magistrate. I wanted to show my talent and slowly be promoted. But now that I've met Military Master He, I'll be straightforward. I want to surrender to He Junshi. I wonder what official He Junshi will give me?”Chen Gong asked with a strange expression.
I thought to myself that he was testing me. I said without showing any emotion on my face,"The eunuchs are in chaos and the court is corrupt. Although the chaos of the Yellow Turban Army was pacified, after the war, the people were suffering. The court did not think about pension and raised the tax rate, making the people miserable. I have no ambition, but I want to be a general, so that I can sweep away the chaos of Jiuzhou, and be an official, so that I can benefit the people. However, at this moment, I think that we should first protect the lives of the people. Then, he would station his troops and look for an opportunity. If the opportunity was ripe, he would lead his troops to wipe out the evildoers and clear the emperor's side. If you come to help, I will let you be the commander of the army and manage the military with me. I wonder if Mister is willing to yield?"
"This is exactly what I wish for. It's just that Military Master He didn't ask about my talent. You let me take on this great responsibility. You're not afraid that I'll delay the great matter.”Chen Gong nodded excitedly before asking in confusion. I didn't answer. Instead, I asked,"Do you have the confidence to take on this important task?"”"Of course!" Chen Gong stood up and replied," That's good. Let me see if there's a problem with my judgment."”I smiled faintly and spoke with an indescribable confidence.
"Military Advisor He has treated me so well. I'm willing to do my best. Please accept my bow.”After saying that, Chen Gong bowed deeply. I won't refuse and wait for him to finish. I helped him up and said,"Thank you for your help, sir. I bow to you on behalf of the people of the four quarters and the soldiers of my army."”After saying that, I bowed again. Chen Gong quickly helped me up and was about to be polite when a voice came from the side,"Military Advisor, stop being sour. Sit down and have a good drink.”Chen Gong and I smiled at each other and sat down to drink.
After a while, I saw that the sky was already dark. He told Dian Wei to bring Chen Gong back to the relay station while he said that he would be back soon after running a small errand.
I went to the guard captain alone and said to the guard,"Go and inform Zhang Hou that an old friend is coming to visit.”The guard didn't dare to be negligent. Zhang Rang was the superior of the guard in charge of the internal guards. After a while, a soldier led a person out. When I saw that it was the envoy who had delivered the imperial edict for me that time, I knew that this person must be Zhang Rang's confidant. "Do you still remember me, my lord?"”When that person saw that it was me, he immediately came forward and said,"So it's General He. Quickly come with me to see Lord Marquis.”
He and I walked about half a mile. When we arrived at an official residence, he asked me to wait at the door while he went in to report. A short while later, a fat man with a face as white as jade came to the door with the help of the person from before. He smiled and said,"So it's Young Master He. Come over and let me take a good look. Every time your father enters the capital, he comes to take a good look at me. Your father is capable. He just didn't want to be promoted. Otherwise, he would have been the Grand Tutor or Grand Commandant by now.”I knew that it was Zhang Rang who quickly went forward to help him and entered the hall together.
On the way, he even touched her face twice. Fortunately, I came from the modern world and met a transvestite in Thailand. I'll endure it, I'll endure it, I'll endure it! When we reached the hall, I quickly took out the white jade dragon-shaped pendant I bought and a pair of green and green beads. I handed them over and said respectfully,"My father has always warned me not to forget my manners when I see Marquis Zhang. I am in a remote place, and I know that you are used to gold and silver. He didn't have anything to take out, but he remembered that his mother had left these two things behind before she passed away. This is a betrothal gift for a young general to propose marriage in the future, so I brought it to show my filial piety to the Marquis.”
Zhang Rang was a person who was used to seeing property. When he saw these two items, his face couldn't help but change color. Then he said,"Young Master He is indeed better than his master. If you have anything to say, just say it." As he spoke, he put away the two items. "A few days ago, the bandits of Kuaiji, Yan Baihu and Yan Xing, rebelled, killed the Governor of Kuaiji, and seized the city. I quickly led my troops to destroy the two thieves. Today, I will bring their heads to the capital. I'm here to explain…"
Zhang Rang said,"This matter should be rewarded. Don't worry, Young Master He. You just have to attend court tomorrow." The emperor will definitely satisfy you." After saying that, he asked the envoy to bring me out.
On the way, the envoy said,"Young Master He is indeed extraordinary. I have seen many people give gifts to the Marquis." He had never seen such a white jade before. The pair of beads were even bigger than a person's thumb. He had really put in a lot of effort. No wonder Lord Marquis lost his composure today." I took out a few gold ingots and said with a troubled expression,"I can't bring too many things with me. Take this for father-in-law to drink tea. The next time he came to Jian 'an, he would definitely thank him heavily!”After the envoy accepted it, he beamed with joy and said,""How embarrassing!" He sent me all the way out of the police station. I told him to stay and returned to the relay station.
When I returned to the relay station, it was already late at night. Everyone is already asleep, so am I. The next day, I woke up early. Let Fan Er of the Fan family brothers put the brocade box of the two heads on a plate and rush to the palace gate with me to wait for the edict. Unexpectedly, there was already a young eunuch standing at the door. When he saw the two of us, he asked,"Is it Lord He, the general with broken wings?" After hearing that, he immediately helped me hold the plate and said,"We will wait at the entrance of the court hall.”After he finished speaking, he led the way for me and I stood at the entrance of the hall to wait.
After a while, he heard someone shriek from inside,""Court!" After a while, the officials walked in in two rows. Then, I saw Grand Tutor Yuan Kui, who nodded at me. As for the others, Wang Yun, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao also nodded at me and entered the hall.
After a while, he heard from inside that General He Qi had come forward to meet him. The eunuch and I entered the hall. I went forward and knelt down, saying,"I, He Qi, kowtow to Your Majesty. Long live, long live, long live!"”"No need to be polite!" the Spirit Monarch said. I stood up. "What does your family have to report?" The Spirit Monarch asked. "On the ninth day of the tenth month of the first year of Zhongping, the bandits of Kuaiji, Yan Baihu and his brother, rebelled and killed the Governor of Kuaiji, Li Yi, and occupied Kuaiji. I am the long history of Kuaiji. I led the army to defeat the enemy and cut off the heads of the two thieves. I have come to report to the emperor!”I lowered my head and reported. "That's good. How should we reward He Qing's family?”The Spirit Monarch asked.
Wang Yun stepped forward and said,"Your Majesty, Lord He has always been loyal and brave." He defeated the Yellow Turban Army and beheaded Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang. Now that you have made such a great contribution, I think that Lord He will be the prefect of Kuaiji.”
"What you say is reasonable, but in my opinion, it is a waste of talent. I want to confer He Qi the title of Wuyue Prefecture Overseer. What do you think?”the Spirit Monarch said.
"The emperor is right! We all agree." The officials said in unison.
The Spirit Monarch was overjoyed when he heard that. In the past, he had always been blocked by many when he issued an edict. Today, all the officials and Zhang Rang thought so. "He Qi, come forward and listen to the seal. I appoint you as the governor of Wuyue Prefecture, governing Moling, Wujun, Kuaiji and the counties under your jurisdiction. In addition, you will be granted the title of General of the Military Division and Marquis of Jian 'an. You will be rewarded with 5,000 coins.”When I heard this, I immediately went forward and knelt down. I will naturally do my best to serve Your Majesty. Long live, long live, long live!”However, he thought in his heart that Zhang Rang was indeed powerful.）
