One hundred and seventy-two eccentric, but not completely eccentric
For a period of time after that, Liu Bei successfully sent Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xiahou Yuan and Xiahoudun to the Northern Army Tun Cavalry Camp with the help of Xu Xuan's relationship.
This is a central army unit specially composed of Han knights, and the equipment and treatment are all first-class, if they mix well, if there is anything that needs to be done in the imperial court in the future, they are all capable of middle and senior officers.
Under the premise of being taken care of by Xu Xuan, Guan Yu and the other four all held the position of grassroots officers in the Tun Cavalry Battalion, and they could continue to "further their studies" in the elite ranks of the Central Army of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Liu Bei instructed them to learn more from the classic tactics of the Han army, and not to waste this precious "period of further study" and the like.
Liu Yong and Liu Sheng, two clansmen brought out by their hometown, were also entrusted to Lu Zhi by Liu Bei.
Liu Bei hoped that Lu Zhi could appoint them to do things in Jizhou, or suppress riots, crusade against mountain bandits, etc., so that they could accumulate experience in leading troops to fight.
Lu Zhi, who lacked his cronies, readily agreed, and brought over Liu Bei's team as his own team, and there was nothing to avoid between the master and apprentice, Liu Bei's subordinates were his subordinates.
His cronies Zhen Yan was reinstated as an official, continued to work in Shangshutai, continued to concentrate on being Liu Bei's dog, and was proud of it, and felt deeply satisfied.
There are also the children of the Zhao family, the Li family, the Wang family, the Zheng family, the Yin family, and the Han family, and Liu Bei told them that he had other arrangements for them, so that they would not be anxious, and there would be a result soon.
There is no way for a good brother to be promoted to filial piety, and Liu Bei doesn't want to delay his future, so he gives him two choices.
One is to ask Lu Zhi, a teacher who served as a pastor in Jizhou, to recruit a subordinate official who is also from Jizhou, and introduce him into his career.
The other is to continue to stay in Luoyang City, waiting for Liu Bei to have other ways to recommend him to enter the official career.
After Zhen Yan explained the new look of the dispute between modern and ancient literature, he seemed to have gained some new insights, and he was obviously very touched by why Liu Bei was able to stand out in such a situation and turn his life around, and then he felt a little anxious.
He suddenly realized that what he had been ignoring intentionally or unintentionally was that Liu Bei was no longer the same as in the past, but he had not separated Liu Bei from the current Liu Bei in his heart.
Back then, they were all gangsters, fighting together on the streets, and living a happy life together, there was nothing wrong with it, but time has passed, and now Liu Bei is already a big figure in the ancient literature school.
To put it bluntly, Liu Bei is already on top.
And what about him?
is still a fresh graduate who can barely be regarded as a recent graduate.
The gap seems to be a little bit bigger.
This anxiety prompted Leadboy to choose a more direct path.
"Xuande, I don't want to leave you too behind, I want to follow Lu Gong and train myself, instead of wasting time in vain, you are already one of the top people in the Han world, and I ...... It's a lot worse. ”
Liu Bei saw through the anxiety beneath the calm surface, and indeed did not expect that he could one day become the cause of anxiety for others.
What does this mean?
This shows that there is still some anger in the lead, at least other people come to take refuge in themselves under the pretext of being subordinates and mixing up together, and this brother who is a friend of the neck seems to be different.
Liu Bei smiled, didn't say anything, and calmly introduced the recruitment to Lu Zhi, and asked Lu Zhi to recruit and make him an official as the pastor of Jizhou.
"Xuande, even if this is your best friend who grew up together, you won't treat each other differently as a teacher."
Lu Zhi winked at Liu Bei.
Liu Bei smiled and nodded: "Everything is up to the teacher's decision, and there is no need to worry about the disciple." ”
So Lu Zhi nodded and agreed to Liu Bei's request.
As for Dong Huang, Liu Bei accepted such a big benefit from Dong Zhuo, of course, he must treat it properly.
So through Xu Xuan's relationship, Liu Bei met Chen Qi, the captain of the infantry battalion, invited him to a meal and chatted.
The result is that Chen Qi is willing to sell Liu Bei's face, get to know him, and make friends.
He is willing to accept Dong Huang and let Dong Huang take up the position of a grassroots junior officer in the infantry battalion, the position is not high, but he can stay in Luoyang City justifiably, there are many opportunities, and the treatment is good.
Dong Huang was very excited about this and was very grateful to Liu Bei.
The cronies who went on the expedition with him were all arranged by Liu Bei through his own connections, and achieved great success, proving that Liu Bei can not only be rewarded for meritorious service, but also benefit from the cronies around him.
For the leader of a political group, this ability is necessary and relatively scarce, because not everyone can do a good job in the position of leader and work for the benefit of his subordinates.
Liu Bei proved himself at this point.
But at that time, there was still no movement on Liu Bei's body, except for a title, there seemed to be nothing.
It wasn't until the day before Lu Zhi left that news came from the palace that Liu Bei was appointed as a servant of Shang Shu and Zuo Cheng.
After the news spread, the upper leaders of the ancient literature school expressed their surprise, because they really did not expect Liu Bei to be able to take on this position.
Lu Zhi is gone, but the authority of his Shang Shuling is equivalent to Liu Bei's current topping, and the position is three levels lower, but there is no difference in authority, unless someone else does it.
Lu Zhi said that he was both happy and worried about this, while the other bigwigs of the ancient literature school had different views on Liu Bei.
Originally, no matter how shining Liu Bei's light was, they always regarded Liu Bei as a junior who needed to be mentioned, and psychologically they did not regard Liu Bei as a court official like them.
But now it's different.
Liu Bei is equivalent to taking over Lu Zhi's authority in fact, and in the court, his position is as important as Lu Zhi's position in the past, and he will gain more trust from the emperor because of his status as a clan member of the Han family.
Who was the person who made this decision?
It is not difficult to guess, just think about it a little and know that there is a high probability that it was the decision made by Emperor Liu Hong himself.
Liu Bei's surname is Liu, and he is a relative of the Han family, and this factor may not be simply ignored.
When Liu Bei was down, the Han clan couldn't eat as a meal.
But when Liu Bei gradually showed his talent, he could replace him in a certain sense and help him rise to the top.
Emperor Liu Hong, most likely, took a fancy to Liu Bei's identity as a relative of the Han family, cared about him very much, and wanted to promote him.
Although the emperor did not follow the meaning of the ancient literature school and let Lu Zhi stay as the third duke, it has to be said that the emperor did not completely let the modern literature school succeed, because Lu Zhi's previous position was still taken over by Liu Bei, who was also hated by the modern literature school.
What is it called?
This is called eccentricity, but it is not completely eccentric.
This operation is indeed quite standard, not only the bigwigs of the ancient literature school think so, but also the bigwigs of the modern literary school.
After this appointment was issued, many people felt that Liu Hong, the son of heaven, was a little different from the past.
Although he still loves money so much, likes luxury so much, and Xiyuan, which makes money for him, is still so overcrowded, he has been running to Taixue a lot recently.
He ran there every few days to discuss the content of "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Period" and "Guwen Shangshu" with the students in Taixue, and it was said that he really did some research, not just a play.
It is natural for the Son of Heaven to study, but it is not a normal thing to often run into Taixue.
Therefore, after the appointment of Liu Bei, a key figure, was issued, the Jinwen School immediately launched an urgent consultation meeting according to the current situation to prepare for the power struggle in the next period.
Under the new political situation, there is no room for them to hesitate at all.
