Chapter 236
Unexpectedly, Zhen Mi's consciousness was so advanced. It was rare that she would think of making money on her own and reducing the burden on her own men. Yuan Mai would naturally not refuse. If Zhen Mi had managed it properly, she might have made some money for herself!
He nodded and agreed, "It's rare that Ami thinks so. I'll find a few carpenters to make a batch of stools another day. Just let the maids in the mansion take them to the market to sell!"
I mentioned the miracle doctor Zhang Zhongjing while chatting just now. Only then did Yuan Mai remember that he had sent Zhuge Jin to Nanyang Nie County in mid-July to visit Zhang Ji. It has been more than 70 days since he was sent by Zhuge Jin to visit Zhang Ji in Nanyang. I wonder if he has been back?
"By the way, I have spent about a month to go back and forth during this period of time. I wonder if Zhuge Ziyu has returned from Nanyang?"
Du said, "Oh, have you not seen Lord Zhuge when you come back? Lord Zhuge is back a few days before you come back!"
"Really, has Doctor Zhang invited him back?" Yuan Mai's heart hanged and asked nervously.
"Doctor Zhang is here. A few days ago, "Good Luck" was infected with wind and cold. It was the disease that Dr. Zhang treated him. He is really a miracle doctor. After the medicine is cured, the child took the medicine prescribed by the miracle doctor and he was cured in two or three days!" When talking about Zhang Zhongjing, Du looked grateful.
"This is so good!"
Yuan Mai was overjoyed, stood up quickly, sorted out his clothes and said, "You sisters and sisters are chatting slowly in the room. I will summon Zhuge Ziyu and Doctor Zhang immediately!"
After saying that, he quickly left the backyard and ordered the guards to summon Zhuge Jin and Zhang Ji to talk.
In mid-July, Zhuge Jin received an order and went to Nanyang to recruit Zhang Ji. It took seven or eight days to come to Nanyang Nie County and inquire about Zhang Ji's location in the city.
Zhang Ji is a world-famous doctor. He has served as a prefect in the local area and a court official in the capital. He is a household name in Nieyang County. Naturally, he will know it after inquiring.
Through the previous recruitment of Xu Shu, Zhuge Jin learned that his lord was a thirsty person, and he had to recruit the person he liked before he could stop. Otherwise, even if he went back, he would definitely be driven back again.
Therefore, Zhuge Jin became more scrupulous this time and did not rashly ask for Zhang Ji, and invited him to follow him to Bingzhou to be an official. Instead, he rented a house in Nieyang County, pretending to be sick, and sent someone to invite Zhang Ji to see the doctor.
Most doctors in this era have bodhisattvas hearts, and there are very few black doctors who are obsessed with greed in later generations, not to mention great doctors like Zhang Ji. Naturally, they take it as their responsibility to save the world and save the world.
Zhuge Jin's entourage came to invite him to see a doctor, and Zhang Ji went there happily. After looking, smelling, and asking, he could not diagnose Zhuge Jin's fault. But Zhuge Jin kept shouting and feeling uncomfortable.
This made Zhang Ji very depressed, so he had to prescribe a prescription, asking Zhuge Jin to take it for a while before making a decision. But what Zhang Ji didn't expect was that this was a trick that Zhuge Jin, who had always been honest, played with him. He pretended not to be sick, and it would be strange if he could see it!
A few days later, Zhuge Jin sent someone to invite Zhang Ji to see a doctor. After such a round trip, the two of them became familiar with each other.
When he was free, he often talked about family, country and world affairs. Then Zhang Ji felt that Zhuge Jin was very talkative, not like an ordinary person, so he asked Zhuge Jin what his identity was?
Then Zhuge Jin smiled and entrusted his purpose of coming to Nanyang, saying that he was commissioned by Yuan Mai, the governor of Bingzhou, and invited Doctor Zhang to Bingzhou to be an official, hoping that he could agree with mercy.
He also boasted about Yuan Maida, saying that virtue is comparable to Yao and Shun, appearance is superior to Pan An, wisdom is superior to Guan Zhong, and martial is superior to Xiang Yu. He only heard Zhang Ji and was in awe of fog and respected this noble family.
In the past two years, Yuan Mai shot and killed the Xiongnu Chanyu Yufuluo, captured Hanoi and Pingyang, grabbed Gao Shun and Zhang Liao from Cao Cao, and attacked Luoyang, and became famous, and Zhang Ji has also heard of it.
What made Zhang Ji even more excited was Yuan Mai’s identity. As a noble family and a noble family, what a dazzling halo after the three generations of the four generations? As long as the Yuan family is mentioned, all scholars and scholars in the world are respected and admired, and their admiration is definitely like the water of the Yellow River, endlessly roaming!
Some people in later generations don’t understand the so-called “four generations and three dukes”. It is not that the Yuan family has three ministers ranked third in four generations, but that the Yuan family has four consecutive generations, and all have important officials in the court who are ranked third in three dukes.
The Yuan family began to become prominent since the reign of Emperor Zhang of Han, which was one hundred and fifty years ago.
Yuan Shao's great-grandfather Yuan An performed outstandingly during his career and served as Taipu, Sikong and Situ, with a high position as a minister and a prominent status. Moreover, because Yuan An is noble in character and sets an example, everyone admires him.
The empress at this time was Dou, the famous Empress Dowager Dou. Her brother Dou Xian was even more famous in history. She went deep into the vast sea and desert for three thousand miles, defeated the Northern Huns, almost annihilated its main force, and forced the Huns to go west to Europe to exile.
Dou Xian made great achievements and was invincible to the world. Because his sister was the queen of the current dynasty, she was named General, Grand Tutor, Champion Marquis, and had a great power in the court and the country.
Dou Xian made such great achievements, which should have been a role that was celebrated in history and praised by all the people. However, he was arrogant, arrogant, vengeful, and narrow-minded, and had to do whatever he wanted and compete for profit with the people. In the end, he was discouraged and was sentenced to death by the emperor.
The one who overthrew Dou Xian was not someone else, but the Situ Yuan An of the dynasty, Yuan Shao's grandfather and Yuan Mai's ancestor.
During the reign of Emperor Zhang, he abolished torture, worked hard to govern, developed agriculture and sericulture, drove the Huns in the west, maintained the Silk Road, and created the "Mingzhang Governance", which was considered a good emperor.
When Emperor Zhang was in power, he realized that Dou Xian was arrogant and could not tell the truth, so he scolded Dou Xian and removed his duties. Unfortunately, Emperor Zhang got sick at the age of 31 and died in the Luoyang Palace at the age of 31.
When Emperor Zhang died, the ten-year-old crown prince Liu Zhao ascended the throne and became the Han He emperor in history. Empress Dowager Dou promoted Dou Xian again as she was young and entrusted with important tasks. Dou Xian's power became even more powerful and treated the people even more severely.
Empress Dowager Dou couldn't help but promote his brother Dou Xian, and promoted the people of the Dou family. In addition to Dou Xian, brothers such as Dou Jing, Dou Gui, Dou Du and others were all entrusted with important tasks. The Dou family's power was in power and the court reappeared the scene of the autocracy of foreign relatives at the end of the Western Han Dynasty.
The Dou brothers controlled the government affairs, cultivated their close friends, eliminated dissidents, and committed evil deeds, which made the heavens angry and resentful. Empress Dowager Dou secretly supported him and turned a deaf ear to the impeachment of all officials.
Situ Yuan An was the mainstay of the fight with the Dou family. Facing the Dou brothers, Yuan An was not afraid at all. He argued with him in the court many times, counting his crimes and asking the Empress Dowager to bring them to justice.
Although the Dou family hated Yuan An so much that they felt itchy, Yuan An was an important official of the two dynasties, famous all over the world, and admired him. He was clean and self-righteous on weekdays and had no control. Although the Dou family hated him deeply, they could not catch Yuan An's handle and could only wait for an opportunity to take revenge.
When Emperor He of Han Liu Zhao was fourteen years old, the Dou family conspired to usurp power, attempting to imitate Wang Mang and abolish the Han Dynasty and establish themselves.
With the assistance of Situ Yuan An, Sikong Renwei and others, the young emperor defeated the Dou family's conspiracy, and captured all the Dou family, dismissed all their official positions and demoted them back to their hometown. Later, he sent someone to force Dou Xian to commit suicide. Since then, the Dou family has been destroyed in the long river of history, and the regime has been regained control of Emperor Liu Zhao.
The Yuan family's prominent reputation was established by Situ Yuan'an 150 years ago. After several generations of development, the four generations and three ministers were unprecedented.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the court did not set up prime ministers, and the three dukes and nine ministers led the ministers, and the three dukes were the heads of all officials.
The so-called three dukes are the Taiwei, Situ, and Sikong.
The Taiwei was the head of the three dukes, in charge of military power; the second was the Situ who was appointed by Yuan An, who was similar to the later prime minister, in charge of the national judicial system, promotion of officials, and the treasury of the money and grain treasury, which was equivalent to the three ministers of the later Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Justice, and Ministry of Revenue, and were powerful.
After Yuan An's death, his son Yuan Chang was appointed Sikong during the reign of Emperor He. He was at the end of the Three Dukes, but he was also an important official with great power in the world. He was in charge of geotechnical affairs and court etiquette, which was equivalent to the later generations combining the responsibilities of the two ministers of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Works.
During the reign of Emperor Huan, Yuan An's grandson Yuan Tang became increasingly prominent, and successively served as Sikong and Situ, and finally became the Grand Marshal who was in charge of the world. That was even more amazing!
After Yuan Tang's death, his two sons, Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei, were also extremely ministers.
Yuan Feng served as the father of Sikong, which is Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. Yuan Feng's younger brother Yuan Wei even ascended the position of the Three Dukes before his elder brother, served as Sikong, Situ, and Taiwei, and finally served as the Taifu. His disciples and former officials were spread all over the world, and the great scholars of the world were eventually killed by Dong Zhuo, who was in chaos.
If Yuan Shao is now named "General" by Cao Cao in the name of the emperor, the Yuan family can even be called "Five generations and Three Dukes" and famous nobles, who is so prominent?
In this era of feudal imperial power, it was common for the ancestral tombs of the rich and wealthy families to be fond of the emperor, and it was common for three dukes and nine ministers to be produced in the family. But the wealthy and prominent families like the Yuan family, which lasted for four hundred years, was the only one of the Yuan family!
It can even be said that China has a vast history of three thousand years. Only the Yuan family in Ruyang, Runan, can have this honor!
Gu Long's novel once described Li Xunhuan's family background as "seven Jinshis in one family, three Tanhuas in father and son", but compared to the Yuan family, which had five generations and three Dukes, it was simply a pure "diao Silk House" and was not worth mentioning!
Let’s get back to the point, let’s talk about Zhuge Jin’s recruitment of the miracle doctor Zhang Zhongjing.
After hearing Zhuge Jin boasting about Yuan Mai, he said that he was eager to seek talent and was ready to be appointed as the prefect. Zhang Zhongjing happily agreed and agreed to follow Zhuge Jin to Bingzhou to become an official.
The reason why things went smoothly was not only because Zhuge Jin was using his strategy properly, Yuan Mai had the halo of nobles, but also because when Zhang Ji was an official in the court, he was once a disciple of Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Wei. He was promoted many times and was grateful, so he promised and followed Zhuge Jin to Bingzhou.
