Chapter 39: Merging with People from the North ([-])
Zheng Xuan knew that Liu Han would have something to discuss next, so he asked Liu Zhong to take him away.
Looking at the two gift lists in his hands, Liu Han couldn't help but smile.
One is the money and supplies donated by Mi to Bingbei, and the other is the gift list for Mi's visit to him.
"What a big hand."
Liu Han couldn't help but smack his lips after looking at the gift list. He was worthy of being a businessman for generations, with this accumulated wealth.
"My lord, shall we see the Mi family or not?"
"See you, of course."
Liu Han tapped his fingers on the table, closed his eyes and said nothing.
Anyone who knows him well knows that this is thinking.
Suddenly, Liu Han's eyes lit up, "Mr. Zhicai, I have an idea. Could you please give me some advice?"
"My lord, please speak."
"This time I caused a big uproar in the North. I think the Han family will donate more or less for their own reputation. We might as well erect two sets of merit monuments. For Mi's generous donation, they should be engraved on the merit monuments. , writing a letter of 'A righteous man of the country', and another set of merit tablets specifically for those aristocratic families with small calculations in mind, writing a letter of 'Thank you for your three melons and two dates'."
Thank you for your three melons and two jujubes? After hearing Liu Han's plan, Xi Zhi smiled.
damage! Too bad! Although the protagonist is young, he has an insight into human nature.
If any family is on this monument, it will definitely be drowned in the spit of the big man, and even the career of family members will be cast a shadow in the future.
Although this move does not kill people, it hurts the heart.
It should be noted that reputation is the most important thing for nobles. It takes hundreds of years to build a reputation, but it can be destroyed in one day.
When a member of a certain family promoted his filial piety and integrity to an official position, the Shangguan said, "Oh, so you are the member of the family who is only willing to give me three melons and two dates."
Why promote filial piety and integrity? It means that the children of your family must be filial and honest.
But your family is only willing to donate so much. In the worst case, it is disloyal to the king and the country.
Who dares to use it? As long as this man's surname is Liu, the family's official career will be ruined in the next few decades. Once his official career is interrupted, the family's decline will not be far away.
Too bad! Since the lord has come up with an idea, what he has to do as a counselor is to check for leaks and fill in the gaps.
"My lord, I have one more thing to say. We must check in person and carefully screen whether the materials delivered are defective. This must also be recorded.
There are still some who are unwilling to give away. The Lord will engrave an inscription detailing his ancestors, the pillars of the country, and today's moths. "
"Zhicai is right, I was negligent."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, feeling as if they had met each other too late. Only Tian Feng's scalp was numb, "Two old silver coins."
Tian Feng could imagine at this moment that in the future, a group of gentry family heads would cry and come to join the North.
# Yanmen Prefecture.
Mi Zhu came to the living room under the guidance of the servant.
Mi Zhu had already made inquiries when he arrived here. He was the first one to arrive. No matter it was the Wuji Zhen family, the Chenliu Wei family, the Hedong Wei family, or other big families, they were not as fast as him.
The Mi family has been a businessman for several generations. As the new head of the Mi family, Mi Zhu wants to make a difference.
Career! This is what Mi Zhu desires most.
In other words, this is what Mi Shi of the East China Sea desires most.
Now, Mi Zhu has found a shortcut - becoming the King of Hejian County, but this is a big gamble, and Mi Zhu feels very uneasy.
The supplies delivered this time are a stepping stone.
"You are Mi Zhu, Mi Zizhong, right?"
Mi Zhu heard the sound and saw a young man walking in from outside, followed by two scribes.
The young man was dressed in white clothes, elegant and noble, with a profound complicity, and his thin lips were slightly raised with a hint of to say, Mi Zhu knew that the person coming was the King of Hejian County! "Mi Zhu, a common man, pays his respects to the Prince of Hejian County!"
"Get up and talk."
"Here."
The guests of honor took their seats, and Liu Han was the first to speak: "Sir, you have traveled thousands of miles and come northwest from Xuzhou with a lot of supplies. Thank you for your hard work."
"The ordinary people don't dare. The prince once said that every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. Although the ordinary people are a merchant, they still have the heart to serve the country with fists and fists. The aliens invaded and killed countless people. As a son of the Han family, if I hadn't learned martial arts, I would definitely Follow the prince, kill a few of his barbarians, and avenge our Han people!"
"Sir said yes."
"I don't know."
"In Shimoda Toyota Yuanhao, the current governor of Yanmen, this is a dramatist and dramatist, and now he is a military advisor general."
"Mi Zhu has met the two adults."
"Don't worry, Mr. Mi. My lord has just discussed with us that your good deeds will be engraved on the Yanmen Merit Monument. When the time comes, the people of the Han Dynasty will sing about your good deeds."
Xi Zhicai told Mi Zhu the results of the discussion just now.
"This"
Although Mi Zhu was moved, this was not the core purpose of coming here. Although this move could further enhance Mi's reputation, Mi's reputation was something that Mi did not lack now. What Mi's lacked most now was an official career! "What's wrong, sir? Is there any problem?"
Liu Han asked.
"The prince doesn't know something," Mi Zhu hesitated again and again, but finally made up his mind and gritted his teeth and said: "The Mi family's donation attracted an angel to visit. The angel privately asked if there were any sisters and said it was the Queen Mother's wish. Zhu made the decision privately. Send my sister to the Prince of Hejian County and hope that the Prince will forgive me."
The three people in the hall had different expressions when they heard this.
Xi Zhicai looked at Mi Zhu's appearance and said to his colleagues, as long as I have no morals, morality cannot kidnap me.
Tian Feng had a solemn look on his face, and seemed to be thinking about something. The lord was indeed going to talk about marriage, and this was really an oversight by Feng.
Only Liu Han's expression changed again and again, and he felt the deep maternal love (backstabbing) from Luoyang's mother.
"Ran playing the piano! How old is this guy! Did the mother and queen think of this?"
"My lord, the Queen Mother has done a good job. My lord has indeed reached the age to talk about marriage."
(In the Han Dynasty, most men's first marriage age was between 14 and 20 years old, and Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong became a queen at the age of 14.) Tian Feng always spoke out when admonishing, but he was aggressive and said to Liu Han while holding his neck.
Only then did Liu Han realize that in his eyes, he was only 14 years old now. He was still a boy, still developing and growing, and it was too early to talk about marriage. However, in the eyes of the ancients, 14 years old was almost an adult.
After all, in the eyes of the ancients, heirs were a big deal. If the lord had an heir early, it would stabilize people's hearts.
Liu Han suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "I wonder how old your sister is this year?"
Mi Zhu replied hesitantly: "Four years old."
"Four years!"
Liu Han said in a loud voice.
"You were put in the Hejian County Prince's Mansion at the age of four?"
Good guy! Liu Han called out in his heart at this moment, "What a guy!" Liu Daer's Mrs. Mi is just a child who doesn't understand anything now!
You, Mi Zizhong, really work hard for your family.
Dare to bet on his own sister's future.
This girl has been in the palace for two months. From the outside, it seems that the Tian family and the Mi family must have made some kind of deal. The Mi family must have been on Liu Han's side. Otherwise, who would believe it? "Mi Zizhong, you are so good! I really underestimate you!"
At this moment, Liu Han was furious. If given the chance, he would definitely choose to kill Mi Zhu and destroy the Mi family.
