Time flies, time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was the fourth year of Zhongping, that is, 187 AD.

This year, Xun Shuang organized the coronation ceremony for Liu Zhan, and took the word Yunqi. Two months after the coronation ceremony, Xun Shuang arranged a marriage for Liu Zhan and married Cai Yan, Diao Chan, Guo Xin, and Lian'er into the palace together.

On the wedding night, the sound of men and women laughing in the palace continued all night.

The palace is Liu Zhan's new residence, which is a newly built palace according to the specifications of the princes and kings, located in Yangzhai, slightly larger than Tingyuxuan, and the layout is basically the same as Tingyuxuan. As for the furnishings, it is naturally the same as listening to Yuxuan, and the tables, chairs and benches should never be used......

Originally, Liu Zhan didn't want to be extravagant, but Xun Yu said, 'The king can't be self-respecting, why should the teaching and deployment be more important than the king?' Frugality and righteousness are the virtues of kings, but this must be based on rules. Therefore, if the king does the king's deeds and enjoys the king's lu, the official of Yingchuan can keep his duty and enjoy the lulu in peace......

Liu Zhan had no choice but to hand over the matter to Xun Yu with full authority, repair another book, and ask Liu Hong for 6,000 yuan to build the palace. Before the construction, Xun Yu organized the major wealthy families in Yingchuan to contribute money and efforts. The palace took two years to build.

In the past three years, Yingchuan has regained its former wealth and prosperity, the treasury is full, the people live and work in peace and contentment, businessmen from various states and counties gather, a large number of displaced people have poured in, among which Nanyang, Runan, Chenliu, Jiangxia and other counties are the most, and in a few years, the population of Yingchuan has suddenly increased to more than 3 million. For the displaced people, Xun Yu encouraged them to reclaim wasteland and pay taxes according to ten taxes. This initiative has enabled the displaced people to live and work in peace and contentment in Yingchuan. The people spread it by word of mouth, and the world knows the name of Yingchuan Liu Zhan.

……

On this day, Liu Zhan recruited Xun Yu to the palace to discuss the recruitment of talents.

"Uncle, it's time to issue a recruitment order." Liu Zhan looked at Xun Yu and said, "The population is surging, and the county officials are too busy, so we have to select a group of young talents to enrich the ranks of officials in various places." ”

"Enlighten my king, the minister has completed the drawing up of the order to seek merit, but please ask me Wang Yulan."

Xun Yu said seriously with a look. Regarding the issue of title, Liu Zhan told Xun Yu more than once, 'A family doesn't have to pay so much attention to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers', but Xun Yu did not agree to live or die, and insisted on treating Liu Zhan with the courtesy of monarchs and ministers. As a later generation, Liu Zhan did not want to be called Xun Yu's name, so he called him "uncle". Therefore, there was such a scene: Liu Zhan called Xun Yu "uncle", and Xun Yu called Liu Zhan "king".

Liu Zhan nodded and said, "Oh? I know, so does my uncle. I won't read it, and my uncle can release it at a later date. ”

"Talent Seeking Order can only recruit ordinary talents."

"Yes, those students of Yingchuan Academy are about to finish their studies."

"Less than two months to go."

Liu Zhan pondered for a moment and said, "Fengxiao said that he was going to come to the palace to find an errand in the near future, and my uncle should take care of it a lot." ”

"Then what position will be arranged for Fengxiao?"

"It depends on what he means. There is also Chen Qun, who should come to the palace with Fengxiao to serve, and arrange a suitable position for him at that time. ”

"Hmm." Xun Yu nodded, pondered for a while, and said, "Can the 40,000 horses in the Black Cloud Cottage not enter Yingchuan first?" ”

"Uncle thinks it's too ostentatious?" Liu Zhan smiled slightly.

"Exactly, now the hearts of the people in the states and counties are fluctuating, and rumors are spreading, once 40,000 horses and horses enter Yingchuan, it will definitely attract the attention of all parties, but I am afraid that someone will make a fuss about this at that time, which will be unfavorable to my king!" Xun Yu looked at Liu Zhan and expressed his worries.

"It's okay, then don't move yet, and my uncle can send them some money and food at a later date. However, the Flying Feather Rider still has to come back, and my junior brother will be in Yingchuan in a few days. Liu Zhan followed Xun Yu's advice, but he knew that it wouldn't be long before he could justifiably recruit 40,000 horses back to Yingchuan. Because, Liu Yan will propose to Liu Hong next year that he should be assassinated and reformed into a state pastor, and Liu Hong agreed in a vague way. At that time, it was the beginning of the division of one side of the states, and the world really began to be in turmoil.

"Oh, presumably my king's junior brother is also a heroic figure."

"Hehe, that's nature, the ability of the junior and the disciple, there is no match in the world. If it weren't for the fact that he would have been more filial to his uncle, I would have recruited him to my side a long time ago. Liu Zhan smiled slightly, obviously exchanging news with Zhao Yun.

At this moment, the Moon Shadow Guard came to the main hall: "Enlighten my king, there is a young man who calls himself Zhao Yun outside the door who asks to see him. ”

"Haha, I really said Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived." Liu Zhan was overjoyed, and raised his hand to Xun Yu, "Uncle, let's discuss it here today, and we will discuss it another day." Before the words fell, Liu Zhanteng stood up from the chair and rushed straight out......

Xun Yu was a little stunned: Didn't you say Zhao Yun? How can you say Cao Cao? In other words, the name Cao Cao is also a little familiar......

After pondering Guan Tian and not understanding the meaning of Liu Zhan's words, Xun Yu smiled faintly, shook his head, and walked out of the hall alone......

Not long after Xun Yu left, Liu Zhan pulled an eight-foot-long, majestic, and heroic young man to a small hall behind the main hall. This small hall is the place where Liu Zhan and the four girls eat daily, and it happened to be dinner time, so Liu Zhan directly pulled Zhao Yun into the small hall and talked while eating.

The two of them came to a private room in the middle of the small hall and sat next to each other at the large round table.

"Someone, serve the food." Liu Zhan clapped his hands, and a group of shadow dancers in pale green dresses floated in, and in a short time, the table was full.

Liu Zhan looked at Zhao Yun and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Yun, Senior Brother, I can look forward to you, haha, you and I will be able to build a great achievement in the future." ”

"That's nature! However, Yun Zhen didn't expect Senior Brother's residence to be so grand, like a small palace. When he came, Yun thought he was in the wrong place, and he dared to let people report after confirming it repeatedly. Zhao Yun looked shy, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.

"Senior brother, how are Uncle and Aunt lately?"

"Hehe, the second elder is very good, and he often mentions you, senior brother."

"Oh? How so? ”

"Master said that Senior Brother is the most talented person he has ever seen in martial arts, and those who should not be born to participate in the strife of the world should practice martial arts in the mountains and attack the legendary martial arts realm, and it is very likely to reach the level of the master." Zhao Yun's expression was solemn, and his eyes were full of yearning.

"The legendary martial arts realm?" Liu Zhan was a little puzzled......

Why have you never heard Master talk about it?

It can't be that martial arts can break through to a certain level, right?

This is too mysterious!

Moreover, wasn't the ancestor plotted to death? If the master ancestor is really so good, how can it be......
