Cui Shang returned to Bianliang on November 28. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

From leaving Bianliang last year to returning to Bianliang City now, a farewell is a year and a half, from the white body when he went to the present Guanghushou to defend and capture the envoy Sima on the march, the sharp change in the identity of the middle is enough to make many people dumbfounded.

Even if it was the dynasty for Tian Shelang and the twilight of the Tianzi Hall, there was no such a big change.

Winning the examination is just a step into the official career, and he has crossed many levels in more than a year from the white body, and now he is the marching horse who is in charge of the military staff of the three states, which can be said to be a moment of power, which is unimaginable for many people.

Escorting Cui Shang back to Bianliang were four guards from the guards of the defense and capture embassy.

With the continuous expansion of the territory controlled by Jiang Feng, his official position was also constantly changing, coupled with the chaotic bureaucratic system of local feudal lords since the Middle and Tang Dynasty, sometimes it was difficult for Chen Wei and Cui Shang, who were familiar with the official system, to make timely adjustments to the official structure of Huaiyou.

Taking Jiang Feng's defense and capture of the embassy as an example, the Huzhou Thorn Mansion had just had time to be established, and Shouzhou was taken, and it was suddenly transformed into a defense and capture of the Embassy, but you can't take all the plates in the entire Huzhou Thorn Mansion at once, and you have to leave a framework for the Huzhou Thorn Mansion.

And the domination of the three states also means that you need to have a larger structure for comprehensive coordination, and you need to enrich the official structure and personnel, which is overstretched as far as Huaiyou is concerned, which is also the main reason why Jiang Feng strongly asked Chen Wei to solve the problem of the source of officials as soon as possible.

Without a complete bureaucratic structure and an adequate system of officials, the entire three prefectures will be in an extremely chaotic situation from government affairs to military affairs, and their work efficiency will also be greatly reduced, which is unbearable for Jiang Feng.

This is also a characteristic of this era, without the support of the local gentry, then you will inevitably be subject to many constraints in human resources.

Fortunately, Jiang Feng was quite decisive and proper in dealing with the issue of the attachment of the three surnames of Shouzhou, which made the three surnames begin to accept Jiang Feng as an outsider in a relatively short period of time, and the talents among the three surnames also began to take the initiative to join the office.

In addition, Jiang Feng began to covertly recruit and absorb from Guangshen Erzhou through the Xu and Ju families, and at the same time recruited talents from the local gentry in Huzhou such as Chen, Huang, and Tan, as well as Cui Shang, Du Tuo, Wang Huang and others also spared no effort to persuade old friends and colleagues in the past through envoys and letters, and took a multi-pronged approach to slowly resist this wave of chaos.

But even so, the entire Huaiyou is still in a situation of extreme lack of talent.

In particular, under the circumstance that the counties of Hushou and Shouzhou were greatly damaged by ant thieves and a large number of displaced people from Yingbo, Cai, Huaibei, and the three prefectures poured in, the government affairs at the county and township levels were extremely heavy, which made Huaiyou's demand for grassroots officials and talents still in a state of shortage, and it would be difficult to meet them for a long time.

Now Huaiyou will face the situation of civil strife in Wu and want to intervene in Wu Di, it is conceivable that once Huaiyou really launches an offensive against Wu Di, according to the most basic goal, the two states of Luhao will inevitably be included, then these two states

In this case, Cui Shang's trip to Bianliang is not only to solve the problem of worries for the Heshuo army to go south, but also to further promote the talent attraction strategy for Huaiyou.

Daliang has the land of the ten states of the Central Plains, and it is also the place where the essence of the Tang Dynasty gathers, since the Han Dynasty, this area is the source of humanities, and the local gentry are more talented, and it has always been a rich place for the central and local government officials to provide talents.

However, this situation changed somewhat during the reign of the Great Liang.

Due to the bad relationship between Zhu Liang and Li Tang Zhengshuo in Guanzhong, and the gentry and literati in the Central Plains have always been loyal supporters of Li Tang Zhengshuo, most of the middle and upper officials in Zhu Liang are either from the army, or they are literati or excluded gentry in some places, and the mainstream gentry are often reluctant to go to Zhu Liang because they admire Li Tang Zhengshuo.

Although with the passage of time, Zhu Liang has ruled in the Central Plains for decades, the style of the gentry and literati has gradually been eroded, and the Guanzhong is narrow and densely populated, and the local gentry and literati are difficult to enter the office, and the Central Plains gentry and literati are even more resistant to the attempt of the Central Plains gentry and literati to enter the Guanzhong, and some of the Central Plains gentry and literati who admired Li Tang Zhengshuo could not gain a foothold in Guanzhong, so this situation was gradually improved, but after all, the reversal of this situation still needs a process, so the talent reserve of the Central Plains states is still the thickest.

Cui Shang's return to Bianliang this time also intends to make a difference in this regard, and to recruit more state and county officials who can quickly take up their posts for Huaiyou.

In addition to these two tasks, Cui Shang's return to Bianliang this time also shoulders the important task of how to reposition the relationship between Daliang and Huaiyou and promote cooperation between the two sides.

If it weren't for the fact that the time for the Heshuo army to go south was too urgent, Cui Shang originally planned to wait until Jiang Feng and others Tu Jiao returned to Huzhou and Chen Wei returned from Chang'an before going to Bianliang, but with the imminent civil strife in Wudi, the southward movement of the Heshuo army was imminent, so this trip to Bianliang was advanced.

Fortunately, Cui Shang had already discussed with Jiang Feng on this trip, and he already had a basic strategy, except for asking Daliang to coordinate the relationship with the three towns of Heshuo so that the recruited Heshuo army could go south smoothly, the other two tasks had already been prepared.

Cui Shang's mansion is in a secluded alley near Wuyue Temple.

Although the Cui family is a famous family all over the world, it has lush branches and leaves, like before Cui Shang arrived in Huzhou, this branch has already become an ordinary person, and it also occupies a surname.

Of course, after all, it is a prestigious family in the world, and the surname Cui also means that if he can be developed, then he can find the recognition of the Cui family, and he is also eligible for the help of the Cui family, of course, the degree of recognition and the size of the help also depend on his status and how much benefit he can bring to the Cui family.

In fact, from the time he began to serve as the Sima of Huzhou, Cui Shang knew that he had been included in the sight of the Cui family, but a state Sima was not enough to make a world-class family like the Cui family pay too much attention.

With the rapid expansion of Jiang Feng's power, especially after taking Shouzhou in one fell swoop and obtaining the position of Guanghun Shou Defense and Capture Envoy of the Imperial Court, Cui Shang's weight in the minds of the big men of the Cui clan has risen sharply, and the frequency of contact with him has also increased rapidly.

Cui Shang's wives and concubines have all been taken to Huzhou, and the only one left in Bianjing City is his old mother, who lives with his brother.

His younger brother Cui Ji has ordinary qualifications and has no talent for reading since he was a child, so he can only write letters for others for a living when he becomes an adult, which is quite humble.

But as Cui Shang's status in Huaiyou climbed, Cui Zhi was no longer writing letters for others, but was responsible for contacting all kinds of miscellaneous people in Bianjing City for his brother, almost acting as his butler and liaison.

When he returned home, Cui Shang had just had time to see his mother, and he received a report from his younger brother that there were already two guests in the concierge.

Cui Shang also knew that he couldn't hide it from people when he returned to Bianjing, and he didn't plan to hide it, but the fact that this guest came so quickly still made him both surprised and a little proud.

"Sit, Xiaolang. ”

In the study, Chen performed a salute.

Cui Shang's study is not the same as in the past, the head case is round and plump, the picture of the lady on the screen is made by a famous artist at a glance, and the whole study is infiltrated with an elegant and elegant style, and at a glance, you can know that it is worth a lot from the case to the chair and stool.

The ink treasure on the wall looks a little old, which has been kept in Cui Shang's room, and it is also a gift from Cui Shang's master.

For Cui Shang, there is no doubt that the furniture and other things were sent to the door to change for him, and with the rapid rise of his status, there are many eunuchs in Bianjing who want to speculate.

Chen Shi honestly sat down on the square bench.

stayed in this Bianjing City for more than a year, from the initial recuperation of injuries, to the later following Chang Kun to become familiar with the situation inside and outside Bianjing, Chen Shi entered the state quickly.

Now he has been able to work according to the instructions from Huzhou very easily, on the surface he is Huaiyou's liaison in Bianjing, in essence, he has acted as the principal of Huaiyou Wuwentang.

Cui Shang is not Chen Shi's direct boss, but as a marching Sima, he has the right to know about other information in Wuwentang except for special affairs, so it is also appropriate to come to Cui Shang to report here.

In fact, emergency information is basically transmitted to Huzhou through special channels within three days at the latest, and only comprehensive information will be transmitted back to Huzhou according to the time period.

Now Chen Shi wants to report more overall and comprehensive information, and he wants to provide Cui Shang with all kinds of dynamic information about the internal and external aspects of Daliang in recent months.

Chen Shi reported very carefully, especially in the area of foreign affairs and military affairs, which was more important, and Cui Shang also listened very carefully and took the initiative to inquire about some information.

"Xiaolang, do you mean that people from Caizhou have been coming to Bianjing City a lot recently?" Cui Shang's brows had already begun to wrinkle a little vigilantly, "Then do you know that they are mainly in contact with which departments, the Political Affairs Hall or the Chongzheng Yuan? Is there any specific news coming out?"

"Well, since September, in these three months, we have learned that Caizhou has at least four envoys to Bianliang, Chongzheng Yuan and Zhengshitang have contact, but mainly Chongzheng Yuan, we only know that there are some about Nanchenzhou, but we feel that this should not be the point, and it may even be a cover. ”

In the past year or so, Chen Shi has changed a lot, and he has also learned a lot from Chang Kun, and the most important thing is that he has learned to use his brain to consider and analyze.

"Oh, do you think the affairs of Nanchen Prefecture are covering, why are they covering?"

Cui Shang was a little vigilant, Nanchenzhou was recaptured by Da Liang, and the He family of Nan Chenzhou is currently an important pillar of the Yuan family in Caizhou, but there are still many children of other families in Nan Chenzhou, since Caizhou and Da Liang have ceased war, it is also appropriate to negotiate on these issues.
