"I, I ......" Yang Xiu was in the middle of the choice at the moment, constantly weighing.

His merits can be exchanged for a good official position, or even 2,000 stone in one place, with his own talents, and the fame of the Yang family, so that he can govern a large county into prosperity in a few years.

Yang Xiu has this self-confidence, even if he wants to use money and connections to accumulate, he can create a prosperous county.

It is even a place where scholars gather.

After those two years, he will have more fame and merit, and become a very prestigious person like his father in middle age.

This will be a straight road, paving the way for him to accumulate prestige and become a third prince when he reaches middle age in the future.

However, now the three dukes have been abolished, and only the post of prime minister is left.

Wrong!

When Yang Xiu thought of this, his heart suddenly tightened, and he had a feeling of being out of breath, and those earnest teachings that his father had said suddenly appeared in his mind.

Don't be too arrogant, you should deal with it calmly, and you can't judge it with common sense.

With this thought, beads of sweat slowly appeared on Yang Xiu's forehead at this moment, and he suddenly found that even if he followed this path all the way, he would never reach the Third Prince, or even a higher achievement, in the end.

It may perish.

The feudal officials, well-connected, can govern millions of people, get countless political achievements, and gain countless prestige every year...... And he is also a member of the Yang family.

What does the Cao Guild think?!

When you have a lot of precautions, do you immediately worry about it and try to eliminate it?

Thinking of this, Yang Xiu's back was cold, and he arched his hand to Zhang Han and said: "Well, the eldest prince has made countless achievements this time, and his prestige is very great, and most of the Lujiang clan are subservient to him, so he should be promoted as a general with five senses." ”

"I was born in the Hongnong Yang family, and I belong to the children of the six good families, and the places where the children of these good families are located should be redivided."

The five Zhonglang generals in the court are the left, right, Wuguan, Huben, and Yulin five Zhonglang generals, all of whom belong to Guangluxun, while Huben and Yulin belong to the military position, and the garrison imperial city is the majority.

The left and right, and the facial features are more civilian, and the people who serve as staff members, that is, Lang officials, are all outstanding, most of them are selected from several large local families, and they can be selected into them, and the future is quite immeasurable, but it is not too conspicuous.

Because of the three princes and nine secretaries of the imperial court, they often selected talents from these three offices as staff members, or recommended Shangshutai to be local officials.

In the two official offices of Huben and Yulin, the Lang officials are all powerful soldiers, and they are responsible for the garrison of various palaces and guards in the palace.

Because these people worked in the imperial palace, it was important that they were innocent: the selection of Yu Linlang had to be selected from the children of good families in the six counties of "Hanyang, Longxi, Anding, Beidi, Shangjun, and Xihe".

Of course, I won't choose these six places now, I'm afraid that only the children of the Cao clan and the Xiahou clan will be able to participate in the many clans of Yingchuan.

Yang Xiu did not enter the two offices of Yulin and Huben, and went to the Five Senses Department, and belonged to Guangluxun, and Guangluxun belonged to scholars.

"Then, Xiu wants to go to the General of the Five Senses and be a waiter."

That's the secretary and security guard......

"The main document is drafted, and you can follow left and right, you can accompany you day and night, you have chosen the right one."

Zhang Han knocked on the wine glass, not waiting for Yang Xiu to think about it in vain.

The sound of the glass being struck was like a foregone conclusion, "I'll speak for you." ”

"Thank you, Prince."

When Yang Xiu bowed down, Zhang Han stood on his knees, lying behind his elbows, looking at him with a smile.

A few years ago, when it could barely be called "once upon a time", others came to his home to see him as the head of the Yang family and pray for a prosperous official fortune.

Even a letter of recommendation is enough to make others stand out from other talents.

But now, it is a change of place, and it is he Yang who asks for help.

However, having said that, Yang Xiu still felt that although he had something to ask for, this hundred-year-old clan was different from other poor families.

The prince is to let him choose.

It's also a lot of respect.

Zhang Han stayed in Yang's Mansion for one night, before Yang Xiu and Zhang Han were talking and chatting, and then when Dian Wei came, it became a carnival for the two of them, and Yang Xiu fell asleep on the table very early.

……

What Zhang Han didn't know was that in the matter of their conversation, in Luyang, outside the city of Xudu, Fu Wan and Dong Cheng, who were stationed here, were also feasting friends.

The guest who came was the Liu Bei brothers, who also came from Shouchun.

Liu Xuande's meritorious appointment has not yet come down, but Cao Cao once said that he would never treat him badly, in order to thank him for his meritorious service in Youquyang.

However, now the reward is still being discussed in Shangshutai, and Liu Bei naturally stays in Xudu to standby.

He went to the meeting with Jian Yong and Chen Lai, Chen was a guard, and Jian Yong was eloquent and knowledgeable, which could help the conversation at the table.

Dong Cheng and Fu Wan have quite high status, even if they have been reproached by His Majesty recently, they are also people who have contributed to the Han family.

Liu Bei belongs to the Han family, and they are relatives of the country, so they naturally bowed their heads at this banquet and stayed more restrained and cramped.

Fu Wan is a relative of Queen Fu, and Dong Cheng can be called the uncle of the country.

Eating with these two heavyweights, Liu Bei was a little confused in his heart, because he didn't know if his estimate was wrong.

These two fell to the ground and their status was not serious.

This person, some of them worry about the country and the people all day long, they seem to have the heart of the world, they seem to have a high status, but in fact they are nothing, and jumping up and down can't set off any storms.

And for some people, a decision can turn the world upside down, which is the weight of people in heaven and earth.

Although Liu Bei said that he was pandering on the surface and smiling constantly, in fact, he had gradually lost interest in this banquet in his heart.

"I'm waiting, escorting His Majesty to Xudu, and we have made great contributions, and now, the Son of Heaven is suffering-"

"What's so hard?" Liu Bei suddenly interjected, but his face still had a hint of a heroic smile, "The general might as well explain it clearly, now that the sea is leveled, the rebellion everywhere is gradually calming down, and the princes of all parties are performing their duties." ”

"Bei, I don't know the reason for this."

Dong Cheng was stunned for a moment, glanced at Fu Wan beside him with an embarrassed expression, and then turned around and smiled: "Before Shouchun's Cao Jun returned to Xudu, he was also ambushed and assassinated in Yingyin. ”

"If Cao Cao behaved rightly, why was he assassinated?! Xuande can think about it, is this the reason. ”

"Hmm," Liu Bei nodded, but he didn't add too much emotion, just a simple response.

Dong Cheng said: "Now in the court, it seems to be peaceful, but in fact, Cao Cao is doing the same thing as Dong Thief, but his methods are too secretive and soft, unlike Dong Zhuo, where his fangs are exposed. ”

After hearing this, Liu Bei's eyebrows moved, but he still had a dignified smile, his expression was quite kind, and he nodded and said, "I see." ”

"You are a relative of the Liu family, and you can be regarded as having a closer relationship with us," Dong Cheng laughed, "Xuande has a heart for Han?" ”

"Naturally," Liu Bei replied without hesitation, at this moment Jian Yong was no longer by his side, and was called aside by the scribe who was also a guest to drink.

He was curious, but he couldn't get out.

I can only look up from time to time to pay attention to what Liu Bei and these people are talking about.

After Dong Chenghe finished his stay, he saw that Liu Bei was a little interested, so he began to be kind and seducing.

After a long time, Dong Cheng saw that he had almost finished talking, and knew that Liu Bei had been moved, so he said: "Now, I am waiting outside, and there are still troops gathered, but I can threaten Xu Du, Cao Cao does not dare to remove us easily, so we can only continue to reduce power." ”

"However, there is actually a lot of help in the DPRK and China, and outside, there is also Yuan Shao's secret support, Xuande does not have to worry."

"Oh?"

Liu Bei raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Here, there is still Yuan Benchu's matter?" ”

"Yuan Shao of Hebei, standing in Jiyou, is the hero of the world, his military strength is far above Xudu, Cao Jun can't reach it, why bother?"

"Why do you have to do this, if you can weaken Cao Cao's martial arts, what's the bad?" Dong Cheng is still very confident, and there are enough sentinels sent by Yuan Shao.

The news and promises given are countless, and Dong Cheng estimated and investigated that all the important ministers under Cao Cao were still celebrating, enjoying, and immersed in the battle of Shouchun.

But in fact, Yuan Shao's spies had infiltrated Xu Du early, and this was the advantage among the disadvantages.

After some conversation, Dong and Fu both understood that although Liu Bei was very deep in his thoughts, he must have the heart to compete for the world.

Moreover, when Fang mentioned the martyrdom of the Son of Heaven, Liu Bei seemed to be very interested.

"Xuande, assassination and ambush, we still have dead soldiers, it should be a combination of inside and outside, so that we can rescue Your Majesty, welcome the Yuan family into the master, and expel the Cao thief."

"Hmm, ambush ......" Liu Bei's heart tightened, but there was not much change on the surface, and he was still as steady as Mount Tai holding a wine.

"So, what are the general's plans?" Liu Bei asked sincerely.

"It must not be easy to assassinate Cao Cao, but if you can kill his son and the important ministers around him and cause a riot, it will make Cao Cao uneasy, and maybe he can find a good opportunity."

"So, who is it targeting?"

"Zhang Han."

Dong Cheng is categorical, and his face is ruthless and resentful.

When the words fell, Liu Bei slowly stood up, and with a deep inhalation, the whole person seemed to calm down a lot.

Oh, Zhang Han, huh?

That's goodbye.

Liu Bei laughed out loud and said, "Your heart, you already know it, but this matter is a big matter, and it should be considered in the long run, please allow Xuande to go back and think about it and make plans again." ”

"Xuande!"

Dong Chenghe Fu Wan was shocked, seeing that Liu Bei left the table without hesitation, and planned to leave, they were a little stunned for a while.

What's going on?

Why is it that you have a good conversation, but suddenly you have to leave?

Is it wrong to say something? Zhang Han is the goal, what is the problem?

"Xuande, are you leaving?" Dong Cheng even moved his mind to force Liu Bei to stay here.

Liu Bei laughed calmly, his smile was quite bold, and said: "Two, my second brother and third brother are all waiting outside, if you don't see me go back, you won't sit still." ”

"This place is near Xudu, and I am afraid that the two of them will be rude, cause some trouble, and make things bigger, so as not to disturb the plans of the princes! Or do you want to go back next time, and the good students will consult with them, how about it? ”

"This," Dong Cheng glanced at Fu Wan.

The meaning of his words was obviously very polite, that is, some words offended him.

Zhang Han? Or is it about the assassination, now that I think about it, Liu Bei doesn't seem to have responded positively from beginning to end, and he has never had a too moved expression.

That is, to echo what they say, just casually perfunctory.

"Liu Jun, please, please, if you figure it out in the future, this is also a feasible way at any time."

Both of them were reluctant to do anything, so they could only send Liu Bei out of the house, but they also understood that he would definitely not tell Cao Cao about this kind of thing.

In the conversation just now, one thing is certain, that is, Liu Bei also has the intention of becoming a leader in troubled times, and he will never miss this opportunity.

"It's a pity," after Liu Bei left, the two sighed with emotion, but they still didn't figure out where his sudden attitude changed.

"Originally, I planned to use the genealogy as his name and seek the same identity as Liu Jingsheng and Liu Zongzheng."

Uncle Han Huang.

Such an identity is much more specific than his "Han clan relative" who is everywhere.

"You can still give it to him," the sturdy Fu Wan sneered, "Let this Xuande Gong, look at the forces I am waiting for in the palace, and his choice may be shaken." ”

……

A few days later, everything was still so peaceful.

It's that Zhang Han has been a little troubled lately, and the kind aunt, uh, may also be the sister-in-law.

When I saw him recently, after teaching Cai Yongzhi, I would ask if there was any kind of "groundless" anecdote to say.

Zhang Han was tired of coping, and finally came to the school office to find Xi Zhicai to investigate the file, and wanted to find some interesting stories to tell her.

Of course, he himself is also curious, after all, it is now approaching winter, and the above tables of major states and counties have also been delivered recently, and they will soon pass the New Year, and there will be few affairs.

Moreover, the strange thing is that when winter comes, it seems that even the people are reluctant to go out to talk about it, and there are a lot fewer cases in Dali Temple.

After looking for an afternoon, Xi Zhi was annoyed by Zhang Han and sweated, and finally couldn't help it, and asked: "No, let the girls from Le Fang Yashe inquire about it, they all accept your kindness, and you don't have to pay if you go." ”

Zhang Han said speechlessly: "I don't go to that place, on weekdays, Brother Feng Xiao likes to drink and listen to music, and I almost always go home when I take office." ”

"I am a dedicated man, a good husband, and I never linger in the fireworks alley."

"Well......" Xi Zhicai didn't comment on this, thought about it, and said, "What are you looking for?" ”

"Dian Wei is curious about the lives of those dignitaries, I'll find something to show him, you can rest assured that I will never say it, and the highly confidential file is not here."

Zhang Han smiled knowingly, and raised his eyebrows at Xi Zhicai, he had long known that he would never put all the important news here to watch together.

"Dian Wei still has these habits?"

"Uh-huh," Zhang Han responded perfunctorily, glancing out.

At this time, Dian Wei was dozing off by the brazier, and he had little interest in their conversation.

After a long time, Zhang Han said "Huh", and then his face gradually became exciting, "Haha...... You can find out about this too?! ”

Xi Zhicai came over to take a look, and followed what Zhang Han pointed at, and saw that a picture was sketched with a short black pen and ink, which was a picture of a man and a woman in the backyard.

This mansion is the residence of the prime minister's official servant, "Huang Mansion".

"Which yellow is this?!" Zhang Han asked curiously.

Xi Zhicai was also happy, "You also like this, I just happened to be meticulous about this matter, and I can talk to you in detail......"

Zhang Han gradually remembered something, connected with other secrets he had just seen, and then had a vein.

Hey, help people find melons to eat, there can still be this kind of harvest, this "unforgettable" is really easy to use, Zhang Hanxin said...... At the same time, he also experienced a little bit of the fun of these talented men.
