"... Therefore, the hussar general Shen was built with great honors during the Zen Dynasty. When the wind moved out of the town, the soldiers and the people were happy. Although he died, the wind was still bitter."
"...Xun comes from a famous family and is appointed as the Fang Bo. I treat him with his legs and arms, and I reward him with the reverse knot; I give him the jingjie, and I use him to usurp."
"...I have wasted the kindness of the imperial court and failed to think of the virtues of my ancestors. The world is shocked and the four sides are horrified. I dare not keep the matter of punishment and reward private. It is hard to escape from the extreme when discussing matters. It is better to order the generals of Youzhou to punish Jun. "
Liu Bai finished reading the edict in a mellow tone, and Shao Xun and other Youzhou officials immediately saluted and accepted the edict.
They received the order in the courtyard. Wang Jun was detained in the bedroom, not far away, and everyone basically heard it.
He was silent for a long time, and just when everyone thought he had resigned, Wang Jun began to curse.
"Zao Song, divorce my daughter." Wang Jun shouted: "You have betrayed me, who dares to use you? Who can use you? Haha, you are a short-sighted person. Without me, how could you be as rich as you are now? No. So many people give you gifts? Stupid!"
Zaosong listened calmly to his father-in-law's yelling, without any strangeness on his face.
This world is all for yourself.
I marry your daughter for my own sake. After all, she is the daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Do you want a divorce? You can’t ask for it. I was just trying to end the relationship with you.
"Zhu Shuo, aren't you afraid of being slaughtered as a fat sheep?" Wang Jun continued to scold: "How can you keep so much money in your family? Thief Shao will kill you with just one sentence. By then, all the wealth in the family will be taken by Shao Thief. Now. Without me, who will give you a chance to make money? Stupid!"
Zhu Shuo had a calm expression.
It is true that I cannot save all the family property. But the Youzhou Building will collapse. If we move slower, all the family property will be gone, and my wife and daughter will become other people's playthings. I can still tell the difference between what is more important and what is more important. Don't bother Peng Zu remind.
Now if I give half of my savings, I can still become a rich man, and my family will be safe and sound. What more can I ask for? To put it bluntly, in such a chaotic world, you just have to spend money to buy peace. As for who to buy from, you have to choose carefully. Anyway, Not you Wang Pengzu.
"You Tong, someone reported that you secretly communicated with Shile and were entangled with Yecheng. I said that you have been following you for many years, but you will not be like this. However, you are also a wolf-hearted person. I hate you, I hate you!"
You Tong had an angry look on his face and muttered a few words, as if he was dissatisfied with Wang Jun's insult to him.
"Shao Xun, you have done a lot of scandalous things. Queen Hui, uh--" Wang Jun's mouth was blocked just halfway through the curse.
Angel Liu Bai was a little embarrassed, so he bowed his hands and said, "I would like to teach Mr. Chen to know that before I leave the capital, the emperor will remember the merits of Wang Qiaoqi (Wang Chen), and Xu Jun will commit suicide. The crime will only be punished and no one else will be involved."
Zaosong, Zhu Shuo, You Tong and others all woke up from a dream and left one after another.
Shao Xun pondered for a while and said: "Okay."
Liu Bai bowed and left for the post.
Shao Xun stood in the courtyard for a while and said, "Let's do it."
"Ming Gong, I..." Liu Ling was eager to give it a try.
Shao Xun waved his hand and said: "Let Wang Pengzu kill himself. If he doesn't want to, help him. Afterwards, the head will be hung at the city gate for ten days. If his family is willing to collect the body after ten days, let him collect it on his own without stopping him."
"No." Liu Ling agreed excitedly.
After Shao Xun left, Liu Ling trotted into the bedroom, sat in front of Wang Jun, and smiled: "Wang Jun, if you know the truth, you will hang yourself from the beam. If you don't, I will help you."
Already."
Wang Jun glared at him and sat on the couch without moving.
Liu Ling laughed, stood up and came behind Wang Jun.
Wang Jun seemed to have a premonition of something, and his whole body started to tremble like chaff.
Liu Ling's thick arms had already clamped Wang Jun's neck, and with a strong squeeze, Wang Jun's eyes bulged out.
"Crack!" The sound sounded like a broken neck bone, and the look on Liu Ling's face became more and more excited.

The first day of the tenth year of Yongjia (316) is coming soon.
Zaosong went to Wang Jun's mansion early in the morning for a banquet.
The guests were mostly generals of the shogunate, scholars from Youzhou, and barbarian chiefs. They started eating and drinking at noon until evening.
The next day while resting at home, his wife Wang Shao was crying, which made him very troubled.
"Does Mr. Chen keep his words?" Wang Shao shook Zao Song's shoulders and asked.
Zaosong was about to scold him, but thought about it and just said: "No one will help the prince at this time. Let him bring some traveling expenses and go south to join Bian Zhiren."
Wang Jun and his first wife Wen Shi have three daughters.
The eldest queen, Shao (named Shaoying), married Zaosong.
The second queen Li (named Shaorong) married the son of former court captain Bian Jun.
The third queen (named Shaoyi) married Sun Hui, the youngest son of Sun Qi, the former Pingnan general.
His second wife, Wei, had no children.
His third wife, Hua Shi, has two sons, both of whom are younger.
The eldest son Wang Zhou (named Daoshi) was only fourteen years old, and the second son Wang Yi (named Daoxian) was two or three years younger.
The fourth wife Cui has no children.
In short, Wang Jun had two legitimate sons, three legitimate daughters, five concubine sons, and two concubine daughters.
Unfortunately, the elder among the concubines died of illness. Now the eldest among the concubines is Wang Zhou, the eldest son.
The two concubines were married to Duan Wuwuchen and Su Shuyan respectively.
Duan Wu Wuchen was the former Duke of Liaoxi County. He is dead and it would be inappropriate for him to seek refuge with him.
Su Shuyan once sought refuge with the Xiongnu, and after Shile and Wang Jun failed one after another, he fled to Guangning and beyond the border fortress of Shanggu County. He is currently waiting and watching, and it seems inappropriate to join him.
As for the Sun family in Le'an, because they were implicated by Sima Lun's favored minister Sun Xiu, Sun Hui had been killed, and Wang Ze had also died of illness, leaving him with nowhere to seek refuge.
In this case, the only option was to go south to Jianye and join the Bian family in Jiyin.
When Wang Shao heard her husband's words, she held back her tears and asked, "Then - go south?"
Zaosong said impatiently: "The sooner we leave, the better. Otherwise, something may happen later."
After saying that, he turned around, looked at his wife seriously, and warned: "You are not allowed to interfere in this matter. If you let me know that you are funding the prince's money -"
Wang Shao was very angry and cursed: "Zaotai, when the King of Chengdu was defeated, you went to my father in embarrassment. First, you had a low official position and were ridiculed. Who helped you at that time?"
Zaosong was speechless.
"Are you completely committed to Shao Xun?" Wang Shao asked again: "Do you work for my enemy who killed my father?"
Zaosong took a deep breath and said: "Why don't you go out and take a look. Yesterday, the heads of women were hung at the city gate. Many of the people in Jicheng have not passed the age. The black people rushed over and cursed endlessly. In such a situation, you let
What should I do?”
"Moreover, the crown prince still has his aunt, Mrs. Cui. If his aunt doesn't care about her, why do you and I care?"
"If I intervene, I might be arrested for Mr. Chen. Who will maintain this family then? Have you ever thought about it?"
"The emperor only offends the woman and the prince. Mr. Chen can agree or not. Sparing the crown prince now is an act of mercy outside the law. What else do you want? If the trouble continues, none of your younger brothers and sisters will survive."
When Wang Shao heard this, he was stunned for a long time, and then he covered his face and cried: "My father has been in Youzhou for more than ten years, and a great disaster is approaching, but no one can help him."
Zaosong glanced at his wife with disgust.
Not only is there no one to blame, everyone wants him to die, what a stupid woman.
He still remembered the scene when he hid in the carriage this morning and watched Wang Jun's head from a distance. To be honest, if there were no sergeants guarding him, someone would have taken off the head, hacked it with knives and axes, and cut it into pieces for meat.
The people of Youzhou really hate Wang Pengzu. At this juncture, who dares to take the risk? Even if Mr. Chen doesn't deal with you, I won't be able to survive in Youzhou.
In addition, he also heard that the people of Youzhou praised Mr. Chen for killing Wang Jun. At that time, someone even proposed to jointly petition Mr. Chen to kill Zhu Shuo and Zaosong.
He was so frightened that he went home directly, and he is still worried now.
At this time, you should do nothing and don't let people pay attention to you or think about you, otherwise you will die without knowing how.
Kill Wang Jun and win the hearts of the people.
Killing Zhu Shuo and Zaosong can also win the hearts of the people.
Do you think Guild Chen will not be tempted?
I really want to be killed by this woman!
Thinking of this, Zao Song's eyes flickered, and a fierce look appeared on his face.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the angel Liu Bai came to say goodbye, and Shao Xun personally hosted a banquet in his honor.
After drinking for three rounds, Liu Bai suddenly asked: "I wonder when Ming Gong will return to Beijing? The court is still waiting to organize the ceremony."
The so-called ceremony is, of course, the ceremony to confer the title of General and Duke of Liang.
Liu Bai was actually speaking for others, after all, too many people were waiting.
"We will return after pacifying Duanbu Xianbei. If possible, Wuhuan will also take care of it." Shao Xun did not hide anything from him and said directly.
Youzhou is not big, with only seven counties and more than thirty counties.
Daijun had long been occupied by Tuoba Xianbei, and western Liaoning was in the hands of Murong Xianbei, so there were only five counties left: Fanyang, Yan, Beiping, Guangning, and Shanggu.
I don’t know if I don’t come, but I’ll be shocked when I come.
Shao Xun now seriously suspects that there are more Hu people than Han people in Youzhou. After asking the local elders again, this has been the case since the Later Han Dynasty, but it was not so serious.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Wuhuan and Xianbei moved inland on a large scale, and most of them were settled in Youzhou.
The land in Youzhou is naturally much more fertile than grassland. Even if you are not farming, you are still grazing, and a unit area of ​​grassland can support several times more people.
In the Guo Dynasty, Hu people continued to immigrate, and the number became increasingly large. It seemed that some disaster had occurred elsewhere, and none of them could survive. It happened that the Jin Dynasty opened the country to accept them, so they all came to settle down - Daijun,
The Jie people in Shanggu and Guangping are not the same group as the Jie people in Shangdang. They migrated from the northern grasslands in the late Cao Wei Dynasty.
After fifty years of the Jin Dynasty, no one knew how many Hu people there were because no one went to check.
It's a shame that no one checked this, because it means that the court's control over the various Hu peoples is very loose, and it's basically Jisi rule. Even if a certain tribe migrates away and no longer stays in the original pasture, the court will
It will take a long time to find out.
Shao Xun wanted to take control.
The inward migration of the Hu people has become a fait accompli. It is unrealistic to kill them all, and they don't have the strength to kill them all. After all, Liu Han is still watching from the sidelines.
Then you have to find a way to manage it.
The problem of the Hu people is the result of the inaction of the three dynasties of the Later Han, Cao, Wei, and Jin, and the accumulated evils caused by generations of appeasement. It is difficult to reverse, and it is not that simple to deal with it.
Shao Xun could only do it step by step, first restricting the rule, and then deepening the control step by step.
As far as Youzhou is concerned, Duan Bu Xianbei is the first stumbling block, and Wuhuan Su Shuyan who has run away is the second.
"Ming Gong wants to send a large number of troops to attack?" Liu Bai asked.
"Use both suppression and appeasement." Shao Xun said: "No one from Duanbu Xianbei has come to surrender now, but when the army approaches their pastures, some people will be unable to sit still. Those who come to surrender first will be rewarded with official titles."
Slow, leaving no grass behind, that’s all.”
Liu Bai sighed and said: "Suppression and appeasement are actually the best strategy. In the past, Wang Jun got the help of Xianbei and marched across Hebei. Duke Ming conquered the barbarians of Youyan, which greatly increased his strength and gave him more confidence in the battle against Xiong."
"We still need Tuoba Xianbei." Shao Xun said with a smile.
Liu Bai was a little surprised: "What's the explanation?"
"How did Tian Chou get to Chang'an in the past?" Shao Xun asked.
Liu Bai thought for a while and suddenly realized.
