"I am willing to die for Ming Gong!"

There was no pre-rehearsal, and the two groups of people from Chen County and Pei County, under the leadership of Wuchen and Xiao He, bowed down to Zhang Ji almost at the same time and swore allegiance.

Even the most sluggish Fan Xu humbly learned from his fellow villagers and friends to bow down and salute Zhang Ji, but unlike the solemnity and respect on the faces of others, Fan Xu's face only had a sincere smile.

Of course, a big reason why everyone chose to recognize the Lord so quickly is that this era not only pays attention to the choice of the king, but also the choice of the king.

Later generations Dong Zhongshu admired "the monarch and the minister had to die" in this period only a prototype, the so-called "Book of Filial Piety" is also likely to be the ancient classics compiled by later generations in the name of Confucius, today's princes, nobles and scholars pay attention to "the king regards the minister as a mustard, then the minister regards the king as Kou Yun".

With Zhang Ji's status, although the means of inviting everyone to come to the door are a little inappropriate, but to meet in person and entertain the secretary is already the most thoughtful etiquette that can be done in the general environment of this era.

It's not that Zhang Ji can't learn Liu Bei's spirit of looking at Kong Ming in the grassland, but that in this era, there is no habit of the Han Dynasty scholars refusing to conquer and raise their value by raising their hopes, which is enough to win the hearts of the people.

Moreover, they are ownerless.

Except for Zhou Chang, who served as the history of Pei County, and Xiahou Ying, who was the secretary of Pei County, the rest of the people are now white, and naturally they have no loyalty baggage, and there is no psychological baggage for recognizing the master.

"However, although I am optimistic about you, you have no family background, no reputation, and three loss of resume, so I will temporarily arrange you to serve in different offices to accumulate resume and experience."

After completing the simple ceremony of recognizing the master, Zhang Ji explained his next arrangements to everyone.

Although these people are all talents in history, and there are even talents at the level of founding ministers such as Xiao He, Cao Shen, and Xiahou Ying, they are still too immature when they are just over twenty.

Although he is also in his early twenties, people such as Wang Ben, Meng Tian, Li Xin and others have already learned a lot of ways to be an official and a general from the elders in their families before they were crowned, and they started their official careers just after being crowned.

By the time ordinary people officially embark on their careers at the age of thirty, they are already old fritters with ten years of experience.

This is an important reason why the family still firmly occupies the radish pit in the courts of various countries after the paper and books have spread all over the world.

However, Zhang Ji believes that after he arranges this group of talents who are like grassroots backgrounds compared to the big families to different offices for training, they will let them shine as brightly as in history.

"The lord is relieved, we know that we are shallow, and we can't serve the lord." Xiao He's composure in the carriage and his calm analysis of the current situation had already conquered the remaining eight people, and Xiao He already had some reputation in Pei County, so he took the lead in speaking as a representative of the nine people in Pei County, "He Zidang carefully obeys the arrangement of the lord, so as to repay the lord's kindness as soon as possible." ”

"I'm the same, in the future, the lord will let me go west, and I will never dare to go east!"

Xiao He's speech was even a model for the other eight people in Pei County, so that the rest of them could learn from him to speak together, but he didn't want the honest Fan Hao to speak first.

The rest of the people looked at Fan Xu with some horror, although it was rumored that this Luo Nanjun had always been elegant and generous, but after all, he was a feudal monarch, and such rude actions and words would not conflict with him.

But to the surprise of the others, Zhang Ji took the initiative to step forward and patted Fan Xue on the shoulder, with a gentle smile on his face.

In Zhang Ji's opinion, Fan Xu's assurances to him with a smile on the back of his head and in vulgar language sounded more real and sincere than the words of the others.

However, a discordant voice destroyed the atmosphere that seemed to be harmonious between the monarch and the minister.

"Lord, I don't know what talent can be valued for the lord, but if the ministers are all talented, then the ministers want to recommend another person to the lord." Lu Juan hesitated, but still spoke, "The minister has a small hair, surnamed Liu Mingji, this person has always had lofty ambitions, and he is several times better, I don't know if the lord can summon ......."

"Shut up!"

Before Lu Juan could finish speaking, Xiao He, Zhou Chang and Xiahou Ying on the side scolded angrily at the same time, interrupting Lu Juan's words.

Xiao He, as the backbone of the nine people in Pei County today, and out of consideration for taking care of his fellow villagers, he naturally understood how rude Lu Xuan's things were.

If the person who is recommended is really talented, it will be counted as a credit to the recommender, but that is a matter of the future, and now he wants to take his friends to enjoy the gift of Luo Nanjun, which is inevitably a bit of a suspicion.

Besides, Liu Ji is a well-known ambitious and ambitious person, so what is there to recommend?

The most important thing is that Xiao He noticed the killing intent flashing in Zhang Ji's eyes, he didn't think he was wrong, if he just felt that Lu Juan would never have a killing intent...... Could it be that what did Liu Ji do to offend this Luo Nanjun?

That's right!

Xiao He reacted immediately, that Liu Ji previously said that he admired Xinlingjun, went to Daliang to visit Xinlingjun, and became a guest in his house, but he didn't want to die of illness before he arrived in Daliang.

A few months later, I heard that Liu Ji had become a disciple of Zhang Er, the former disciple of Xinlingjun, and served in the Wei army with Zhang Er.

But it seems that this will not make Zhang Ji have murderous intent?

But Xiao He didn't have time to think about it, so he had to stop Lu Juan from continuing first.

Zhang Ji was silent, his eyes narrowed slightly and he was silent.

Xiao He was very keen, and a trace of killing intent did flash in his heart just now.

Liu Ji, this name may be a little unfamiliar to the vast majority of later generations, but if you call him by his surname and cousin, he will no longer be unfamiliar.

Liu Ji, the word Bang, that is, Liu Bang.

His father, Liu Taigong and Lu Juan's father, are both fellow villagers and have a good relationship, Liu Bang and Lu Juan also happened to be born on the same day, the same month, and the same year.

The two grew up together since childhood, studied together, although they are not brothers, but they are better than brothers, even if Liu Bang once hid in Tibet because of lawsuits, Lu Juan often followed Liu Bang.

So much so that at this moment, when Lu Juan encountered this wealth for ordinary people, the first thing he thought of was his own little Liu Bang.

It's just that Zhang Ji is not sure if he can tolerate Liu Bang.

For such a future hero, a hero who created the Han Dynasty, you can say that Liu Bang defeated Xiang Yu because of shamelessness and affection, but it is undeniable that Liu Bang did win, and he used his unique means.

Liu Bang is such a hero, whether he has any objections in the future, it will be a huge hidden danger for the Qin State.

Zhang Ji didn't speak, but waved his hand to signal everyone to stand back for the time being, and instructed the maid to take everyone to the room specially prepared for the guests in the front yard to rest.

In the lobby, Zhang Ji was still standing in place, continuing to struggle with questions about Liu Bang.

Zhao Gao, who was dressed in a black and red robe, looked at Zhang Ji's back, and he quickly deduced the reason why Zhang Ji was so entangled.

Liu Ji?

Could it be that this person is so special?

Just when Zhao Gao speculated about what Zhang Ji was thinking, Zhang Ji also made his own decision.

Maybe someone else might think of taking Liu Bang under his command when he hasn't objected.

But Zhang Ji didn't want to take this risk.

Killing a Liu Bang, the most he will lose is a few talents in the Liu clan and a Lu Xuan, but if Liu Bang is spared, no matter where Liu Bang is in the future, he can't help but think of this hidden danger and always be on guard.

"Zhao Gao."

Zhao Gao, who was speculating about Zhang Ji's intentions, trembled slightly, Zhang Ji at this moment, his expression was cold, and his voice was indifferent as if there was no temperature at all, which made people feel frightened unconsciously.

"Release the Tianzi-level task!"

"You may mobilize all the manpower and material resources of the net, find Liu Ji, and bring his corpse to his life."

Zhao Gaozhan asked majestically, "Do you include the four Tianzi-level Occultation of the Sun, Black and White Xuanjian, Six Sword Slaves, and Eight Linglong?" ”

Zhang Ji's gaze fell on Zhao Gao and glanced at him coldly.

In fact, when it comes to hidden dangers, why is Zhao Gao not a hidden danger?

The Qin State Mansion collapsed, and Zhao Gao's strength was far greater than that of Liu Bang.

However, Zhao Gao will never be able to unite with the anti-Qin elements in the world, even if he endangers the Qin State, as long as there are people who can suppress him, he will never be able to make many waves.

But a person like Liu Bang, once he is given a chance, no one can say whether it will be the golden scales that will turn into a dragon in the face of wind and rain.

Moreover, how harmful can Zhao Gao, who has no military power and political power, do?

In contrast, Liu Bang's type of talent, without giving military power and political power, can't show much talent at all, but giving military power and political power makes people feel uneasy.

"Benjun said, I promise you all the manpower and material resources of the net."

Zhao raised his head high, feeling the killing intent emanating from Zhang Ji's body, his head drooped lower and lower, and he only dared to reply tremblingly: "The minister is ordered!" ”

It wasn't until the killing intent gradually dissipated that Zhao Gao left in a cold sweat, ready to start completing the assassination mission explained by Zhang Ji.
