Liu Bei's "Chang'an Scholars" made a lot of noise, but it ended somewhat hastily.

From the beginning of March to the beginning of May, there are only two months in total. At this time, it was not enough for the Hanmen scholars in the Hebei region to arrive, and the exam was over.

Therefore, in fact, most of the people who participated in this exam were mainly from the poor scholars of Jingxiang, Yizhou, Yongzhou, and Liangzhou, and even the poor scholars from Jiangdong did not come to participate.

In essence, it was an internal selection.

However, due to the need for the recommendation of local celebrities or officials for the assessment qualifications, most of the people who really come to take the exam are actually some celebrities or the second generation of officials.

For example, the Li family, the Yang family, and the Liu family in Shu all sent their children to participate in this exam.

It's not that they are "voluntary", at least on the surface, these families sent their children to take the exam in order to ease the relationship with Liu Bei.

Huang Yuan rebelled against this, it was pacified too quickly, so fast that these Shuzhong families didn't find out anything, but let Zhuge Liang catch some clues, and found some tricks of the Shuzhong families.

Although it is not a big deal, even if it is solid, it will not affect the survival and development of these families, and Zhuge Liang has no intention of chasing and fighting. But there are some things, I'm not afraid that you will be mad now, but I'm afraid that you will turn over old accounts in the future.

The consequences of turning over old accounts are not so easy for you to accept.

In addition, Qin Mi also sent back news from Chang'an, saying that he had dissuaded Liu Bei from institutionalizing such a way of selecting talents, but in the same way, the Shuzhong family also has to give some face and send some people to participate in this exam, otherwise if you let Liu Bei not come to the stage, then the Shuzhong family, don't think about it.

The Shuzhong family once again held a small meeting under the leadership of Li Yu, and everyone was very "helpless" to say that this time they could only admit to Liu Bei and send some "unsuccessful" children in the clan to deal with this "unknown so-called" exam, which can be regarded as the price paid after Liu Bei failed to test this collectively.

That's what I say, but actually. Which of these families can be fuel-efficient lamps?!

Not to mention others, after Li Yu went home, he immediately let his eldest grandson, Li Yu, go north to Chang'an to participate in this exam.

By the way, he also wrote a letter to Li Hui, the governor of Nanzhong, asking him to ask Zhang Xi to take care of Li Yu for the sake of the Li family, after all, Li Hui and Zhang Xi had a friendship with Nanzhong at the beginning, which is also a personal relationship.

Li Hui was happy.

When he chose to lead the Jianning Li family to join Liu Bei, his own family uncle was not used to picking his nose and eyes, but now it's good, he actually let himself help say hello?!

Okay, I can't write two Li characters in one stroke, this favor, I, Li Hui, help, but this time, you Li Yu don't want to prostitute in vain, you have to be a little sincere.

While Li Hui was busy asking for benefits from his uncle, Liu Yin also received a letter from his father.

After reading the family letter, Liu Yin also cried and laughed when he went north to Hanzhong and took refuge in Huang Quan, his father didn't say much support for him.

It's good now, I actually let myself help make peace and help my brother Liu Hui ask for a fame?!

This is his father, Liu Yin is not good at bargaining, but Liu Yin himself doesn't know what his position is in Liu Bei's group, and whether his relationship with Zhang Xi is good or not, so he just opened his mouth to ask for someone, what is going on? !

And the Yang family, there is no need to entrust people, their family's status within Liu Bei's group is not low, Yang Hong is still the Taishou of Shu County, a proper core member, this time the children of the clan are dispatched, as long as they go through the formal process, the results of the exam will not be bad, and there is no need to owe favors for no reason.

As for the Wang family, after Zhuge Liang returned to Chengdu this time, he personally visited the ancestral house of the Wang family and discussed with the Wang family for a long time, and then the Wang family ended the tradition of closing the door to greet guests, and began to send the children of the clan to the north to take the exam.

On the one hand, Zhuge Liang needs to borrow the power of the Wang family to balance the family alliance headed by the Li family, on the other hand, even if the Wang family resists Liu Bei in his heart, but Liu Bei has become a big trend, and if he continues to close the door like this, the Wang family should really decline.

Therefore, after talking with Zhuge Liang in detail, Wang got some guarantees of interests, and also gave up his usual attitude and began to become a big man.

And among these families, only the Zhang family is missing. Zhang's life is not good, Zhuge Liang grabbed the ironclad evidence that Zhang Shen's third son participated in the Huangyuan rebellion, this matter is not settled, it is difficult to say whether Zhang's can still have a place in Chengdu, how can he have the heart to go north to take the exam.

In any case, there is an undercurrent within the Chengdu family, but there are still many families who send their own children to Chang'an to participate in the examination in order to win official positions.

The reason why the Shuzhong families did this was because of the previous temptation, because of the lack of power in the court, the information they obtained was seriously distorted, and they were forced to seek cooperation with the Dongzhou faction.

It's not too late to make amends.

Before, Liu Bei had always been wary of the Shuzhong family, and many people in the Shuzhong family had very opinions about Liu Bei.

Liu Bei, an outsider, was introduced to replace Liu Zhang in Sichuan at the beginning, without our support, can you beat Liu Zhang down so quickly?!

But after you won Yizhou, you dared not to rely on us Yizhou people to govern Yizhou, but to reuse those Jingzhou people Liu Yan had to compromise with us in the end, but I want to see what new tricks you, surnamed Liu, can play.

This is the attitude of most Yizhou families towards Liu Bei, feeling that Liu Bei doesn't know how to be grateful, and he doesn't know anything about it.

But who would have thought that Liu Bei, a straw sandals seller, would step by step to the status of three points of the world, not to mention, and now he occupies the land of the four states of the world, and the peak of the army is flourishing.

first defeated Cao Cao and took Hanzhong, then won two Northern Expeditions in succession, and now even Guanzhong has been won. This is not the courage of a court in a peaceful corner, this is going to be a success.

In this case, how could the Shuzhong family, who obviously occupied the advantage of being close to the water at the beginning, still be indifferent.

Now Liu Bei is also a rare public scholar, although this method makes the Shuzhong family very worried, but Liu Bei finally let go of the restrictions on the Shu family, and at the same time made a guarantee of "not taking an example", so what are you waiting for, there is only so much for the official position, and there will be no chance if it is late.

And for the Shudi family, now that the Guanzhong family has been swept away by Cao Wei, isn't this an opportunity for the family to enter Guanzhong and become a first-class family? !

Always partial to Sichuan, you say that you are a first-class family, and people don't believe it when you hear it.

Therefore, compared with the relatively cold attitude of the Jingzhou family, in fact, the Shuzhong family, although they said that this time the scholar was "not in line with the etiquette law" and "not in line with the government", and they were disdainful of this time, but in fact, they ran faster than anyone else.

You Jingzhou people are not short of officials, but we Yizhou people are lacking. You Jingzhou people can't be allowed to stretch your hand to Guanzhong again.

And when the Jingzhou families reacted, they found that these shameless Yizhou turtles had actually sent so many children of the family to the north to take the exam.

The families in Jingzhou really can't figure it out, everyone is a thing from a standpoint, and Liu Bei's exam this time is obviously not in line with the interests of the family. These Yizhou turtles can't fail to see this, right?!

The result is good, everyone said together, "The Son of Heaven does not respect the law of etiquette", but in private, what do you mean by running faster than anyone else, pit us Jingzhou people? !

And at this time, the Jingzhou family had no time to respond to this matter. When the Jingzhou family got the news, it was already late April, and the time to open the department was after the Duanyang Festival, so even if they sent the children of the clan to Chang'an to take the exam, it would be too late.

The one who hated the Jingzhou family, on the one hand, despised the Yizhou turtle for saying one thing and doing another, and on the other hand, he hurriedly contacted the poor scholars who had rushed to Chang'an to provide as much help as possible.

Even if it is a cold scholar, it is also my Jingzhou poor scholar, and I can't lose to those Yizhou turtles.

Even the families in Jingzhou specially went to find Ma Liang, wanting to influence Chang'an's appointment this time through Ma Liang's way.

There is no way, who let the chief examiner in charge of this Chang'an Shishi be Ma Liang's own brother, Ma Yan.

Yes, Ma Tan, an unlucky boy, has been working in Yueshan County for five years, and now he finally reminded Zhang Xi of it and recommended it to Liu Bei.

It is appropriate for Ma Tan to do this, he has been running a branch in Yueshan County for five years, and no one in the whole Han is more familiar with this experience than him.

And Ma Jian also took advantage of this to officially enter Liu Bei's sight.
