After knowing Cao Liang's identity, everyone's eyes on Cao Liang were different, although their attitudes were extremely humble, but in their eyes, it was still difficult to hide their jealousy and envy.

I haven't seen Taishou Han Jian appear for a long time, at first everyone thought it was Han Jian who went to change clothes, but everyone has been here for a long time, and they haven't seen any trace of him, which seems to be too abnormal, after all, today Taishou Mansion has a distinguished guest, and Han Jian, as the host, has not shown up for so long, it is too rude.

Ding Juncheng sat on Cao Liang's side, the pressure was quite great, and his head was a little sweaty, he took advantage of Cao Liang's inattention, and whispered to the steward of the Taishou Mansion to invite Han Jian to come out.

Without waiting for the steward's voice, Cao Liang said first: "Don't look for it, when General Ben first came, Han Taishou had already committed suicide by hanging the beam." ”

Ding Juncheng's mouth opened wide, so shocked that he almost dropped his jaw to the ground, and he said in a lost voice: "Han Taishou committed suicide by hanging the beam?" This...... What's going on? ”

Almost all the officials were stunned, and they were all stunned.

What's going on, I saw that Mrs. Han was still on time as usual yesterday, why did she commit suicide by hanging herself today, it's incredible.

Cao Liang said lightly: "That's the case, when General Ben was in Pubanjin, he seized dozens of boats of illicit salt, and captured Han Zhang, who trafficked illicit salt, on the spot, this person must be familiar to everyone, so when General Ben rushed to Taishou Mansion, Han Taishou was already afraid of suicide." ”

Ding Juncheng and the following people are all silent.

Han Jian's sale of illicit salt was naturally hidden from his subordinate officials, but he served in the same county, so even if Han Jian's work was secret, it would inevitably leak some rumors, but because Han Jian was a Shangguan, the officials just knew it, and no one reported it.

Unexpectedly, in the end, when the incident of selling illicit salt came out, Han Jian would commit suicide in fear of crime, and his colleagues would inevitably feel sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Cao Liang said: "This general came to Hedong here, it was ordered by the imperial court to go to Bingzhou to quell the Xiongnu rebellion, according to the plan, need to stay in Hedong for a month, recruit more than 8,000 people, I hope you can work together to help a certain complete the task of recruiting troops as soon as possible, serve the imperial court, and share the worries of the Son of Heaven." ”

Ding Juncheng nodded and said: "That's nature, and the lowly rank should do his best." ”

Cao Liang said: "Han Taishou passed away unexpectedly, and this matter should be reported to the imperial court as soon as possible, but before the new Taishou arrives, I hope that Ding Juncheng can take on the post of Taishou to calm the hearts of the people." ”

When Ding Juncheng heard this, he immediately said with sincerity and fear: "I can't do it, just because the so-called name is not right, the words are not good, and the lowly position is light, how dare you trespass the position of being too guarded?" When General Cao is the official position of 2,000 stones, and it is a fake festival, it is just to recruit troops in Hedong County, it is better to temporarily receive the letter of Taishou Yin, I believe that after a month, the imperial court has also sent someone to take over, and it is not too late to hand over at that time. ”

Cao Liang was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that Jun Cheng is Taishou's deputy, and when Taishou can't take care of things, it should be up to Jun Cheng to temporarily take over Taishou's position and manage the affairs of the county, but this Ding Juncheng is so strange that he refuses to accept the position of acting Taishou, could it be that Han Jian's death made him fearful? Or is there some other reason?

Cao Liang didn't bother to speculate about Ding Juncheng's mind anymore, since he took the initiative to hand over the Taishou seal letter, Cao Liang might as well accept it generously, with the power of Taishou, it was much more convenient for him to recruit troops.

But before Cao Liang could respond, the person below suddenly said in a high-pitched voice: "No!" Taishou is the lord of a county, and he is ordered by the Son of Heaven, how can he give it privately? Although General Cao is a general of Pingbei, he has not received the order of the imperial court, how can he act as the Taishou, and please be cautious. ”

Cao Liang looked up and saw that this person was about thirty years old, handsome and magnificent, compared with Yanghu, he was not much better, and he could be called a handsome man.

Cao Liang was secretly surprised, this era is really a beautiful man, the Yanghu, He Yan, and Xiahou Xuan he knows can be regarded as handsome guys with good looks, and they are put aside in the future generations, proper little fresh meat, but in this era, they are all capable ministers and famous generals, and they are the materials of the society, they can obviously rely on their faces, but they have to rely on their skills to eat, Cao Liang is also drunk when he thinks about it.

"Who is this?" Cao Liang said suspiciously.

Ding Jun said: "This is Wang Jun who is engaged in this county." Wang Jun, in front of General Cao, how can you let you shout so loudly and still not retreat! The second half of the sentence was directly reprimanded by him.

Wang Jun? He is actually Wang Jun! That Wang Junlou sailed down to Yizhou, and Wang Jun, who was gloomy at the king of Jinling, Cao Liang really didn't expect to meet him in Hedong County.

Wang Jun and Yanghu Du Pre, are a generation of famous generals in the early Jin Dynasty, in the battle to destroy Wu made great achievements, it is precisely because Wang Jun in Yizhou to create a water army that can compete with the Eastern Wu army, so the Jin State was able to go downstream, and attacked the stone city in one go, and finally ordered the Wu lord to surrender, "a piece of falling flags out of stones".

It seems that Wang Jun is not ambitious now, but he can only serve as a small job in Hedong County when he is old, not to mention that he is too guarded, and even the county is not pretending to be a color to him, which shows that Wang Jun's position in Hedong County is now very low.

The reason why Wang Jun rose to prominence later was because of Yanghu's recommendation.

Cao Liang waved his hand and said: "What Wang Zhi said is very true, the position of Taishou is given by the Son of Heaven, how can he give it privately, on the next road through Hedong County, it is a hurried passerby, how can he trespass the position of Taishou, this seal is still kept by Ding Juncheng, and I hope that Ding Juncheng can fully assist in recruiting troops." ”

Ding Juncheng couldn't help but secretly glance at Wang Jun, if it weren't for him, he would have thrown out this hot potato-like seal letter a long time ago, but let him come to such a sentence, Cao Liang directly pushed his hand, and Ding Juncheng secretly complained bitterly.

But he didn't dare to disobey Cao Liang's words, so he had to accept it.

Next, Cao Liang asked Ding Juncheng to write a chapter about what happened in Hedong County, and sent it to Luoyang in a hurry of 600 miles, so that the imperial court would decide the matter.

As for Han Jian's body, it had to be temporarily shelved in the Taishou Mansion, after all, Han Jian committed suicide in fear of crime, not a normal death, and in what way he was buried, he had to wait for the envoy sent by the imperial court to arrange for disposal, at this stage, I am afraid that no one would dare to be the master.

On this hot day, Han Jian's body is lying here, I'm afraid it will stink in a few days, Cao Liang is really glad that he didn't accept Taishou's letter seal, and he doesn't have to stay in Taishou's mansion, otherwise he will be smoked by this stench every day, and it will be strange if he doesn't feel bad to die.
