Chapter 205: Collecting the Princes
In the face of the princes of the world, Ming Jian began to implement the policy of carrots and sticks, winning over one group of people and striking at another.
Among the princes of the world, such as Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shu, Liu Zhang, and Liu Biao, there is basically no way to win them over, their territory is very large, their strength is also strong, and they also have ambitions to stand on behalf of the Han. And other people can be wooed, like Ma Teng, Liu Dai, Liu Yu, Bao Xin and the like, they can be wooed. Liu Bei belongs to the people to be observed, he wants no one now, he wants no territory, Ming Jian plans to see him and then talk about it, examine his character, see if he is really ambitious, if he is a benevolent and righteous person, Ming Jian does not mind accepting him as a big official.
Therefore, Ming Jian immediately ordered to canonize Ma Teng and other princes as princes, and ordered them to send people to Xuzhou to meet them.
Of course, Dong Zhuo and others also received documents from the imperial court, asking them to send someone to Xuzhou for an audience.
The first one to come was Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, for this historical celebrity who made pears, after Ming Jian personally met him, he felt that this person had no name and too poor ability.
Except for the intelligence reaching 80 among the attributes, none of them are anywhere, and even the evaluation given by the system is also a rotten one.
In the end, it's a bit of a rhetoric, and it's pedantic.
However, Ming Jian still followed Cao Cao's suggestion, and Feng Kongrong became a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and let him take charge of education.
"Kong Aiqing, I appreciate your talent very much, so I plan to appoint you as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, in charge of education, and cultivate talents for the imperial court, what do you think?"
As soon as Ming Jian's words came out, Kong Rong immediately said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
Kong Rong likes to engage in some culture, he is really happy about this appointment, when he is too tired, especially when the Yellow Turban Army is in chaos, Kong Rong's hair is a lot whiter.
He happily obeyed his fate, and the position of Beihai Taishou had to be reformulated.
After Cao Cao's recommendation, his brother Xiahou Yuan was sent to Beihai to serve as the taishou.
Xiahou Yuan was both civil and military, and of course, there were some civilian officials who followed him. Tuntian had to be launched at this time, Ming Jian personally told Xiahou Yuan, ordering him to get out of the matter of Tuntian, the army is a soldier in wartime, a farmer in leisure time, and strengthens training.
"Miaocai, if you can do a good job of this matter for me, then the four expeditions and the four town generals will be chosen by you! Remember, strengthen your training and don't slack off! At the banquet where Ming Jian saw him off, he personally pulled Xiahou Yuan and admonished.
Xiahou Yuan was already full of joy when he received the weight of the Ming sword, and after hearing this encouragement, he said excitedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the minister has gone to Beihai, and he must take Tuntian as his top priority, and the Northern Navy will definitely become the most powerful army in the Han Dynasty in the future!" ”
Ming Jian told again: "The ability of the wonderful talent, I know, but there are many talents in this world, not rash, even if it is the remnants of the Yellow Turban, you can't be underestimated, everything is based on defense, the development of agriculture, the recruitment of talents, the expansion of the population, and so on in a few years, the imperial court will naturally expand to the outside world, and then it will be a good opportunity for you to show your talents, remember, remember!" ”
"I remember." Xiahou Yuan nodded in response.
......
The second one to come was Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, and Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou, after Ming Jian came into contact, he also felt that his ability was mediocre and not enough to serve as the chief executive of a state.
However, in order to get these two pieces of territory, Ming Jian still did not hesitate to be stingy, and divided Liu Dai as the king of Yanzhou and Liu Miao as the king of Yangzhou, but let them stay in Xuzhou as the household servant and the official servant, and they had a share of the income of the two fiefs, but the officials of the two fiefs could only be appointed by the imperial court.
Where could Liu Dai and Liu Miao think that this trip to Xuzhou would be crowned the prince, and the brothers jumped up with joy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Both of them gave Ming Jian a big salute.
Ming Jian smiled and said: "The two imperial brothers don't need to be polite, the Han clan is withering, and the two imperial brothers are both pillars of talent, so I left you in the imperial court to hold important positions." The household department and the official department are important departments of the imperial court, and the two imperial brothers have to make more money and select more talents for me. ”
"Your Majesty trusts you, dare you disobey your orders? In this life, I will do my best to share the worries of Your Majesty! The two of them were overjoyed and grateful.
As for the two vacant positions, there are also candidates that Ming Jian likes.
Earlier, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Chen Qun, Zhong Xuan, Du Xi and others recommended by Xun Yu all came to Xuzhou, and after some talks, Ming Jian recognized their abilities.
Guo Jia had the best intelligence, with an intelligence of 96, suitable for being a military advisor, and he was directly assigned to Cao Cao to lead the imperial army.
Xun Yu acted carefully, was also scheming, and his intelligence reached 90, and he was appointed by Ming Jian as another deputy prime minister, and together with his uncle Xun Yu, he became a member of the cabinet.
In fact, in this, Ming Jian had already done a good job of promoting one of the two to prime minister, Tao Qian was old, and he would definitely not live long.
There is no problem with the abilities of both of them.
As for Cheng Yu and Chen Qun, the two of them are also very capable, and they were appointed as the waiters of the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Crime, and the last two remaining people, Zhong Xuan and Du Xian, have not yet been arranged.
Zhong Xuan and Du Xian's abilities are biased towards governance, and this is just the right time to come in handy. Ming Jian appointed Zhong Xuan as the assassin of Yanzhou, appointed Du Xi as the assassin of Yangzhou, and ordered Cao Hong to lead 20,000 troops as the general of Yanzhou, and appointed Xiahou Dun to lead 10,000 troops as the general of Yangzhou.
The four of them are grateful to the emperor, especially Zhong Xuan and Du Xian, from civilians to assassins, they have always been dizzy in their hearts.
Before leaving, Ming Jian naturally told again, the location of Yanzhou is very important, Yangzhou is also an important stronghold in the future to enter Jiangdong, Ming Jian hopes that the four of them can implement their own Tuntian policy, and the military is mainly defensive.
All four nodded and wrote down, and then set off for work.
The third batch came to Liu Bei.
The big-eared thief Liu Bei honestly brought Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others to Xuzhou City, Liu Bei had few people, and all of them brought Xuzhou City.
From this point of view, Liu Bei is trying to find a position in the imperial court. After the men and horses were handed over to the imperial court, Liu Bei came to see the Ming Sword single-handedly.
As soon as this guy met, he really used the trick of crying, and the crying made the sky dark, as if Mingjian was guilty, as if it was his fault alone.
After some greetings, Ming Jian also deliberately asked his ancestors questions, but Liu Bei really said that he was the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan.
For this, Ming Jian didn't care, Uncle Huang is Uncle Huang, just his two times, can he turn the sky upside down? Therefore, Ming Jian immediately recognized Liu Bei as the emperor's uncle.
In terms of title, Ming Jian did not make Liu Bei the king all at once, after all, this guy still has ambitions, first seal the Marquis of Zhongshan, let Liu Bei have a good time.
Among Liu Bei's data, the intelligence has reached 88, and the force is actually 80, and other attributes cannot be found for the time being, but it will definitely not be low, otherwise the Shu Han Dynasty will not be created.
Although he was sealed as the Marquis of Zhongshan, Liu Bei did not have to go to the fief, but was named Liu Bei by Ming Jian as the squire of the military department, and let him follow Cao Cao, at this moment, he had no chance to turn the sky upside down.
Liu Bei was able to sit in the position of the squire of the Ministry of War all of a sudden, naturally he was overjoyed, this thing is equivalent to the deputy minister of the Ministry of National Defense, in the military, except for Cao Cao, that is his final say.
"Minister Liu Bei, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Liu Bei thanked him with satisfaction.
Ming Jian said: "Uncle Huang is a benevolent and virtuous person, let's play a good role in the military department, the world is the world of the Liu family, and Uncle Huang, as an elder, has to worry a lot about the country." ”
Liu Bei said: "Your Majesty is gracious, the minister will definitely do his best, and then die!" ”
"Well, by the way, Uncle Huang, I heard that you also have two sworn brothers, both of whom have the courage of ten thousand people, why don't you announce it right away and let me see it?" Ming Jian said.
Liu Bei said happily: "Your Majesty's will should be obeyed." ”
