Chapter 2333 No choice is easy(2/2)
Zheng Xuan closed his eyes and shook his head silently.
When Xi Lu saw that it was a foregone conclusion, he kowtowed and cried loudly.
Zheng Xuan saw Xi Lu kowtow and cry loudly, and finally he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Just when he was about to comfort him again, he saw Xi Lu raise his head and say with strings of tears: "This disciple will be far away from my master."
, I don’t know when I can see Master’s face again... I wonder if Master can give me some books to take with me... Disciple, when I see books, it’s like seeing Master..."
"..." Zheng Xuan was silent for a while, "That's all, Hongyu can just take it for himself..."
Xi Lu lowered his head, tidied his clothes respectfully, and then kowtowed to Zheng Xuan again...
Zheng Xuan closed his eyes, and only sighed slightly after hearing Xi Lu's footsteps disappear, like fallen leaves in the courtyard, floating down and falling to the ground silently.
While Zheng Xuan and Xi Lu were saying goodbye, Liu Zhen was also preparing for the return trip.
During this period of time in Chang'an, Liu Zhen did not huddle in the post house every day.
Liu Zhen actually had some concerns about Zheng Xuan's unwillingness to go to Xu County.
If Zheng Xuan is willing to go to Xu County, I am afraid that he gave the reply very early. However, Zheng Xuan has been silent all this time. It is obvious that he has certain concerns or has been considering something. Among these matters
, no matter what it is, it is always a disadvantage for Liu Zhen.
Because the conditions Liu Zhen can give are fixed, unlike ordinary foreign affairs activities, where negotiations can come and go. Once Zheng Xuan has any new requirements, Liu Zhen cannot make the decision for the emperor and what to give.
Preferential terms are simply a one-shot deal. There is no room for negotiation whether the deal is successful or not.
Therefore, in the end, Zheng Xuan proposed to let his disciple Xi Lu go to Xu County on his behalf, and granted Xi Lu the title of a servant. Liu Zhen basically had no choice but to agree. After all, it is better to have someone to accompany him back than to go back empty-handed.
It's somewhat more attractive. As for the position of servant, Liu Zhen thinks it's not a big problem. It's just a false title anyway. Even if this "servant" fails to fall on Xi Lu in the end, Liu Zhen only needs to deceive people.
Well, if you bring it to Xu County, the mission is completed. At most, you can say sorry, sorry, and maybe have some bad relations with Xi Liu...
Liu Zhen, who had personally experienced turmoil and family collapse, had an almost paranoid contempt for those in power. He despised Cao Cao and Fei Qian, believing that it was people like Cao Cao and Fei Qian, such careerists, who led to the collapse of the Han Dynasty.
The collapse of the dynasty, so after Liu Zhen arrived in Chang'an, the first thing he did was naturally read out the order to recruit Zheng Xuan, and then he waited to see Fei Qian's show. He even prepared what he was going to do with Fei Qian on the way.
Debate, use all kinds of allusions and literary talents, use all kinds of sharp sentences to ridicule Fei Qian.
Yes, Liu Zhen's eloquence is of a very high standard. In history, he not only confronted Cao Cao head-on, but also Cao Pi. Moreover, he was not like Mi Heng who was arrogant and wallowing, but was well-founded.
The eloquence forced both Cao Cao and Cao Pi to bow their heads and admit defeat.
It's just a pity, it's like I gathered all my strength and then punched the empty space.
Fei Qian had no intention of retaining Zheng Xuan at all, and he didn't even bother to do anything on the surface. This surprised Liu Zhen. Could it be that Fei Qian didn't care about Zheng Xuan's name at all, or was he confident that Zheng Xuan would never leave?
?
After meeting Zheng Xuan, Liu Zhen discovered that there seemed to be some deviations in his understanding of Fei Qian, Chang'an, and everything here that was formed in Xu County. It was like seeing
When it comes to fish in the water, the actual position of the fish and the position seen are actually not consistent.
In Xu County, what is often heard is that the Hussar generals are nothing more than that, that the Hussar's new policy is vulnerable to a single blow, that the Hussar is headstrong, and that the subordinates of the Hussar are arrogant and domineering...
The more I heard it, the more I began to believe it.
After all, a slap in the face, uh, the crowd, uh, what, Liu Zhen thought that the Hussars were just like that, but it turned out that it was not like the legend in Xu County.
Liu Zhen is different from Guo Jia, Cao Zhen and others who came to Chang'an before. Liu Zhen's observation line of sight is lower, or more businesslike.
To put it simply, just eat.
There is indeed a lot to eat in Chang'an...
In addition to the cooking cakes and meat buns that had been introduced to Xu County before, there were many different kinds of food, which really made Liu Zhen forget to leave. He even thought that if he could bring all these food types from Chang'an to Xu County,
Maybe it's another great achievement.
But soon, Liu Zhen discovered that this idea was not very realistic.
Because Liu Zhen discovered that to have so many ways to eat, you must have enough food...
This is true for rice, wheat, and other grains. First of all, you must ensure that you have the most basic quantity before you can talk about other tricks. Otherwise, there won’t even be enough to eat, so how can the people be interested?
Should we use grain to do this or that?
After all, not all food is like pancakes and steamed buns, which have been changed from dead noodles to fermented noodles...
At first, Liu Zhen thought that it was because Fei Qian promoted farming earlier that there was more grain. As long as the order in Jizhou and Yuzhou was completely restored and the cultivated area caught up, the grain output would inevitably exceed Fei Qian's, but soon
Soon, Liu Zhen discovered that his idea was completely wrong.
Because Liu Zhen realized that although Jizhou and Yuzhou may have more land than Chang'an Sanfu and Hebei Province, Jizhou and Yuzhou also have their own problems, that is, they have large populations. Even the total grain output may catch up with Feizhou.
This side is hidden, but after so many people are divided equally, there may not be much.
There was another reason that Liu Zhen didn't know.
Of course, many people in Dahan don't know that only after getting a certain amount of beef and mutton fat supplements, these people in Chang'an Sanfu got rid of some pure dependence on carbohydrates...
Ever since, Liu Zhen just lamented the difficulty of Jizhou and Yuzhou, and then made up his mind to advise the emperor and Cao Cao after returning, and go all out to carry out mulberry production and promote grain production. However, what Liu Zhen never expected was that there were some things
