Chapter 177: Mengda's Merit

As soon as I went out, I saw that Meng Da had come up, after more than two years of running, now Meng Da has reached the age of the weak crown, and he is even more heroic, and he is also a handsome figure in later generations.

"Mengda greets the lord! I haven't seen him for two years, and the prestige of the lord is even more famous than before, and almost everyone in the Han Dynasty knows about it!" As soon as they met, Meng Da bowed and bowed.

Ma Chao smiled: "Zijing, please get up!" These two years have been hard for you, you recommend very good, very much, this will be treated with courtesy, the amount of talent used, and, the two states can have the situation today, Zi Jing really has a great merit! ”

In the past two years, although Meng Da has not recruited talented people, there are countless skilled people such as carpenters, blacksmiths, stonemasons, masons, langzhong, tailors and so on. Anyone who has a letter of recommendation from Meng Da, Ma Chao will be hired, and give him preferential treatment, and now there are all kinds of craftsmen in the army, localities, and even Shuofang and Jiuyuan. The most prominent thing is that Meng Da invited Kong Xi, the grandson of Kong Dan, the successor of papermaking, to come over, and this credit alone is enough to compare with most of the generals in the army.

Meng Dadao: "The last general will not dare to take credit, this time I will return first, I miss the lord and a group of old friends, and secondly, there are a few talented people who want to personally recommend to the lord." ”

Ma Chao was overjoyed and said urgently: "Who are they?" Can there be Guo Fengxiao and Xi Zhicai? ”

Meng Da shook his head and said: "These two people are really hard to find, Zijing inquired a lot before finding Xi Zhicai, but this person is not out of office for the time being on the grounds that his mother is seriously ill, but Guo Jia has not been able to find it!" However, Xun Yu and Xun You, who are from Yingchuan, have all visited, and the lord's handwritten letters have also been sent, but these people are all arrogant, and it is hard to say whether they can come to meet each other! ”

Ma Chao was slightly disappointed in his heart and sighed: "It's okay! I am fortunate to have gained, but I have lost my life! It is inevitable that the policy of suppressing the powerful family will be implemented, and it is inevitable to offend a group of family talents. Ben would have missed his chance, so should they? After a decade or two, if they want to vote again, it's hard to say whether they will be hired or not! ”

Meng Da nodded and said: "That's right, Meng Da remembered the words of the lord, and once made a profound analysis of the general trend of the world, and said to him: Now coming to the same person is to send carbon in the snow, and when the general trend of the world is certain, it is just the icing on the cake, and the truth is too simple." However, even so, there are still people who are unmoved, such as Huainan Liu Ye and Linhuai Lusu! ”

Ma Chao nodded, knowing that these two were both local families, and Liu Ye was a relative of the Han family, and he followed Liu Xun in the early days. Lusu is a local wealthy family, and it is too normal not to come to the same place. At the moment, he asked, "Who will vote this time?" Who are they? ”

Meng Da was slightly excited, hugged his fists and said: "Don't disgrace the mission, there are three people who are nominated by the lord this time, Zhang Zhao Zhang Zibu, Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi, Chen Qun Chen Changwen, in addition to Zhang Ji from Nanyang, Zhuge Xuan from Langya, and an old Taoist priest named Yu Ji who can heal!" ”

"What? Langya people Zhuge Xuan? Has this person ever been Yuzhang Taishou? ”

Meng Dadao: "Exactly, but not long after he took office, he was dismissed from his official position by Liu Miao leading troops to break through the city." At that time, the last general was looking for Zhang Zhao in Yangzhou, and this person was quite talented, so he came to visit and invite, and finally made a contribution! ”

Ma Chao was stunned for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh that the butterfly effect is strong, and the historical trajectory of many people has deviated to a greater or lesser extent. If it develops according to the historical trajectory, Zhuge Xuan should go to Liu Biao, but Jingzhou at this time is very different from history, and it is often captured by Dong Zhuo's troops, not to mention, there is also a Zhang Xiu who occupied Nanyang several years in advance. Jingzhou was poisoned, and many people fled into Shuzhong and Jiangdong, but Liu Yan was strengthened.

Zhuge Xuan may not be very famous, but his three nephews are more than one NB, Zhuge Liang, who is only twelve years old, and Zhuge Liang, who is younger, are not to mention, eighteen-year-old Zhuge Jin is also a rare talent, plus Zhuge Jin's two younger sisters, these five are the children of Zhuge Xuan's brother Zhuge Gui. And Zhuge Gui once served as Taishan County Cheng and died of illness in 187.

At that time, Zhuge Jin was only fourteen years old, and Zhuge Liang was only eight years old. Zhuge Liang also worshipped Sima Hui as a teacher at this time, met Xu Shu, Cui Zhouping and others, and married Huang Yueying, the daughter of the local great family Huang family. And Zhuge Liang's two sisters are also married to people from local families.

Although the Zhuge family is a wang family, it can only be regarded as a family of officials, not a powerful family that gathers people in Tuntian, and its ancestor is Zhuge Feng, a famous minister of the Western Han Dynasty, so it is not in the ranks of Ma Chao's suppression. But in this way, the problem arises, can Zhuge Liang become a talent without Sima Hui's teachings? It seems that Sima Huiben opened a academy in Yingchuan, and later took refuge in Jingzhou, but now Jingzhou is more chaotic than Yingchuan, so it is not impossible for him to take refuge in Jizhou, Hebei!

After pondering for a while, Ma Chao asked, "Then Nanyang Zhang Ji is the word Zhongjing?" ”

Meng Dadao: "Exactly, this person has been filial piety, but he has no money to take office, and after Dong thieves plundered Nanyang and Jizhou, Zhang Ji moved his family to Yangzhou. How do you think that Yangzhou also broke out in chaos, and Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou appointed by Dong Thief, had no choice but to mutiny, and Zhang Wenbing, the assassin of Yangzhou, fought against each other. At the same time, there are large and small warlords fighting, Yuan Shao also sent Changsha Taishou Sun Jian to attack Zhang Wen, and now the war in Huainan is endless! Zhang Ji and Zhang Zhao traveled together, and were about to rush to Jiangdong for refuge, but they happened to be persuaded by the last general, so they rushed to Jizhou! ”

Ma Chao stroked his palms and smiled: "Okay, good fight, it's best to drive all the talents to Jizhou and Sili areas for refuge!" It's just that how did the old Taoist Yu Ji find it? ”

Meng Da said: "This person is a person who happened to meet on the way back from the last general, and when he saw that he could cure the disease with Fu Shui, he won the support of the people, so he stepped forward to persuade him. How do you know that the old Taoist priest took the initiative to ask for a recommendation after learning about the generals under the command of the last general and even the champion Hou, so he also came with him. ”

Ma Chao nodded slightly, this is a figure at the level of Ji Ke immortals, and Nanhua Lao Xian and Zuo Ci are collectively known as the "Three Immortals of the Late Han Dynasty". It's hard to say whether it's an immortal or not, but Zuo Ci is the founder of the Taoist Danding faction, Ge Xuan's master, Ge Hong's ancestor, Shi Zai lived at least 130 years old, and it is said that he ascended to immortal after death. And the Danding faction still has descendants in the 21st century in the future, which shows that Zuo Ci is by no means an ordinary person, even if he is not an immortal, he is also a figure of the essence of the Jing Dao family.

The same is true of Yu Ji, who is the author of the Taoist classic "Taiping Sutra", who was quite effective in curing diseases with Fu Shui, and was later killed by Sun Ce, and also ascended to immortality after his death. These three people can be said to be the most mysterious existence in the late Han Dynasty, Ma Chao has long been extremely curious, but he didn't expect Yu Ji to be fooled by Meng Da and the grass building rabbit.
