Chapter 72 Ma's brother and sister

Several people came out of the hall with He Chen in their embrace. Most of the officials around looked at Guo Jia and others with envious eyes. When can I squeeze into the core group of He Chen and rise step by step?

Although He Chen was appointed as a general, he was still fundamentally different from Dong Zhuo and He Jin.

First of all, although this guy is powerful, he is not like these two people who are domineering and bullying others. They also do things in a very method. Whether it is Tuntian production, promoting industry and commerce, and resting with the people, they have done quite well. Secondly, he can find a delicate balance between the family and the people. Although it seems to be extremely fragile, in a short period of time, the interests of both of them have been protected, and they seem to be safe and promote the development of the whole state. It can be said that since the Yellow Turban Upheaval in Hanwei, the Central Plains, which has been fighting for years, has been full of war, no matter a state or county, has been more or less affected. Now only Bingzhou, the hardest-stricken area, which is heavily eroded by aliens, can take the lead in calming down and affli, and full of chestnuts. This must be due to He Chen's great governance after the chaos. Whether it is opening wasteland, digging canals, farming, running schools, focusing on human resources, setting up medical schools, etc., which thing is not beneficial to the country and the people? More importantly, although this guy seems to be greedy and annihid the surname, the civil and military officials are a person who makes a lot of money and does great things in their hearts. This guy robbed so much money and didn't see how he squandered it at all, but fell on the people's livelihood. It can be said that Bingzhou is so prosperous now that it has not paid a penny to the Han Dynasty. It was almost built by He Chen, and he frequently funded the royal family by himself.

Because of this, most of the civil and military officials did not object to General He Chen's title. Except for the red-eyed and hot-eared guy, most of them did not oppose it. Instead, they pushed the boat along the water, which was one of the biggest reasons for their strong support. At least in his hands, he can see the hope of pacification of the Central Plains and the unification of the four seas. At that time, no matter who the surname of the country is or not, at least he is also a meritorious minister, isn't he?

The hearts of the officials are crooked, and He Chen naturally has no way to know. But a few subordinates are more or less worried.

Since He Chen led the general, Li Yan's expression has changed worriedly and said, "Originally, the promotion of the general is a gratifying thing, but with the lesson of the past, the general is inevitably pushed to the tip of the wave. At that time, the anniper, the powerful minister's charge can't run away, which will really lose the general's good reputation. It's not good for the development of Hongtu hegemony.

"What Wen Feng said is reasonable. Although the people of Bingzhou will certainly be happy about this appointment, it is a blatant reason for the warlords of the Central Plains to rebel. At that time, they can't run away under the banner of "Qingjun's side, Zheng Chaogang"." Xun You also felt that things were a little tricky and sighed.

He Chen stepped out of the imperial palace, and the oncoming morning sun shone on his face. The blood of his eyes had recededed, and his spirit trembled more and more. The corners of his mouth moved. Suddenly, an ancient poem came and said, "I would have turned my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shone on the ditch. No matter what you do, you don't have to block everyone's mouth. So as long as it is beneficial to the people and the unification of the Central Plains, what if we take the blame? As for Cao Jian, Gongsun, Sun Jian and Liu Bei, those who want to rebel naturally will not rest and release Nanshan just because there is one less general. What should they plot, or what will they do?

Everyone nodded together, which made a lot of sense.

Jia Xu gently stroked his beard, and his eyes flashed. Finally, his expression was a little admiring, "Although there are tens of millions of people and I'm going, the lord is going to follow the example of General Huo Guang of Sima. He takes the blame for himself, but in fact it falls on the heads of the people."

The famous "Zhaoxuan Zhongxing" in the Western Han Dynasty was a series of political and economic measures implemented by Huo Guang, which eased the social contradictions of Emperor Wu at the end of the year to a certain extent, and the prosperity of the Western Han Dynasty appeared for decades. In later generations, his achievements were higher than the twenty-eight generals of Luoyang Nangong Yuntai and the twenty-four meritorious officials of Lingyan Pavilion in the Tang Dynasty.

He Chen was a little disapproving and said, "Huo Guanggui was the head of the eleven meritorious ministers of the Qilin Pavilion in the Han Dynasty. Although he saved tens of millions of families, he could not protect his children and grandchildren in the end. Although I was far inferior to General Huo, he knew the way of advancing and retreating and saving his life." In fact, He Chen didn't know much about Huo Guang, but he had heard more or less about his deeds. When I was at the peak of power, my son wanted to usurp the throne after he died. In the final analysis, he still didn't deal with the situation of the main weakness and the strong minister. If I were the old man, I directly pushed down the Han Dynasty, so that thousands of people were involved in the end.

"However, it is not without benefits for the lord to take the position of general now. No matter what he does in the future, there will be less elbow system, which is much more convenient." Jia Xu said with a smile.

There are many benefits. He Chen sighed in his heart that the "five thunderbolt" alone was enough for him to be excited.

At this time, everyone had already left the imperial palace and came to the south emperor's gate. When he was about to disperse and return to the mansion, He Chen suddenly remembered something and turned back to Li Yan and said, "Zheng Fang, you ask someone to send a letter to Ma Chao, Ma Dai and Ma Yunlu to the general's house. I want to meet them."

Li Yan said respectfully, "Yes."

On the contrary, Jia Xu couldn't help laughing and said, "The master's eyes are really vicious. Even his subordinates only know Ma Teng and Han Sui. They are rumored about Ma Wan, Cheng Yin and Yang Qiu, but he didn't expect Ma Teng's family to have such strong and brave sons, whether they are Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Ma Tie and Ma Xiu. All of them have the courage to be unstoppable, especially Ma Chao, which makes Huang Zhong praise him endlessly, saying that he has the demeanor of his ancestors's help. He is a young hero and a first-class fierce general in heaven and earth. At that time, his martial arts bravery is too much. The master's use of this method is really amazing. Not to mention the two heroic teenagers, and if he has been reused, he can not only get two killing weapons for nothing, but also stabilize the horse and lead the Xiliang army as a great help. It's really a matter of two birds with one stone.

He Chen smiled proudly and talked about poaching people to collect famous generals. He said that he was the second and who dared to be the first.

"About the matter of Queen Fu, Wen and you have to speed up. Today, Fu Wan's black hand must plan behind his back. In case he stirs up the fire again, the general's position will be burned before he is confirmed, which is not beautiful." He Chen had already sat in the eight-lifted sedan chair. When passing by Jia Xu, he suddenly opened the curtains and whispered.

"I'm waiting for the lord's words." Jia Xu arched his hand to see him off, and then said lightly.

"Okay, gentlemen, take good care of yourself..."

Several old foxes' faces remained unchanged. When they saw He Chen's sedan chair go away, Jia Xu and Xun You patted Guo Jia on the shoulder with one hand, left and right at almost the same time, and then smiled strangely and said, "The lord is talking about you... Hahaha."

Guo Jia also raised his eyebrows and said, "You are almost the same..."

... Not long after He Chen returned to the house, he heard that the servants came to report that Ma Chao, Ma Dai and Ma Yunlu were ordered to come.

When she came so soon, He Chen was a little surprised. She put down He Tong, who was like cowhide sugar, and then gently kissed her porcelain doll-like tender face. She handed her over to the maid. She said kindly and gently, "Xiao Tongtong, Dad, let's go first. You have to be good and listen to your mother."

"Wow..." He Tong's pink hands flew in the air a few times, grabbed He Chen's hair, and giggled.

"Well, hit people in the face, catch people but not the head. Xiao Tongtong, this is not a good habit. He Chen made a grimace, and the funny little doll laughed again. Then, with the help of the maid, she broke away from the "magic palm", said a few words, and then turned around and left. If you let your subordinates see that General He, who is usually ruthless on the battlefield and murderous, has such a gentle side, I'm afraid he will be shocked.

Soon, He Chen came to the guest hall, and two men and one woman with different expressions in the hall got up to meet each other.

The man in the middle is thin, but his face is like a crown jade, his eyes are like a meteor, a tiger's back and a wolf's belly, and he is dressed in a brocade robe and white. With a tall and burly figure, he is a beautiful man. Looking at his momentum, appearance and face, it is probably Ma Chao. Sure enough, he is worthy of Xiliang Jinma Chao, Jiangdong Mei Zhoulang, outstanding appearance, the dragon among people. It's just that although his expression is respectful, there is a slight contempt in his eyes, which shows that this guy is extremely angry, not very interested in He Chen, and even a little disgusted.

He Chen knew in his heart that he didn't blame him very much. He lived a good life. Who would like to go to Beijing as a hostage?

On the left side of Ma Chao, he stands on another young hero. This young man is also extraordinary-looking, with a decent face, two eyes, a long height, long arms, and a burly physique. The expression on his face was slightly different from that of Ma Chao. There were still a trace of admiration and admiration in his eyes. Obviously, he felt much more about He Chen than Ma Chao. This should be Ma Dai.

In fact, Ma Chao has served in the Xiliang Army at this time. Although Ma Dai is Ma Chao's cousin, his status and status are very ordinary. At this time, he has not shown superman's first-class force and wisdom. If He Chen hadn't focused on this person, it is estimated that Xiliang didn't know that there was such a figure.

As for that woman, she must be Ma Yunlu. She really has nothing to say. She is graceful, generous and beautiful. She is tall, convex and curvy, with a clear curve. A black hair is simply tied up and looks extremely refreshing and neat. The cloud temples are close to the cheeks, and there is another charming. The skin is not as fair as that of ordinary women in the Central Plains, but it floats a healthy wheat color with a ruddy luster. A pair of grape-sized watery eyes flashed with uneasiness and anxiety, and more curiosity.
