The world of the Han Dynasty has changed, the yellow turban has swept Kyushu, and it is mighty, but the passing water is flowing eastward, time is still flowing, and the great rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty have slowly recovered from the severe winter. The grass was blown green by the spring breeze, the green willows exposed the green leaves cut by the breeze, and the breeze shook the weeping willows swaying the weak branches, like a graceful and beautiful woman scratching her head in the rippling spring light. Southern swallows have begun to migrate to the north, and there are already nesting swallows in Jingzhou, which is close to the south.

In the Jiaozhou Governor's Mansion, Taixuan is dealing with affairs, and after Jiaozhou is taken, it needs to be governed, and if it can't be defeated, it won't matter.

"These people are all pulled out to parade in the streets, and after publicizing their evil deeds, they will be beheaded, their family property will be confiscated, and their families will be sent to the reclamation group to open up the wasteland," Taixuan said to Sun Zhong, handing over the roster in his hand and asking him to go down and arrange it.

Recently, the streets of the nine counties of Jiaozhou have been very lively, before the high and evil, the big officials who were full of evil, are now parading the streets, the city is finished, and the countryside is traveling, it has been more than a month, today the martial arts field outside the city began, and the beheading was announced for its crimes, and now the crowd of martial arts is surging, watching the killing of the head.

"After the elders have all been disposed of, what will we do next?" Deng Mao was a little excited, feeling very excited, recently, under the planning of Elder Taixuan, Jiaozhou has changed the sky in an instant, far surpassing the other eight states.

"Come, post this notice all over the nine counties!" Taixuan handed it to Deng Mao and explained.

"Can you take the exam?" Deng Mao looked at it, and there was a special recruitment notice with words of appeasement on it.

"Why not, there are still talented people among the people, the old Liu family is filial piety and honesty, and it is completely controlled by the family and the wealthy family, otherwise why do you think the emperor wants to sell his official position, because he has no power to recommend his own people to be officials, so he has to break the jar and break it, and he can still make money by selling it, and he can't get any benefits after handing it over to the family and the wealthy family, I really think the emperor is stupid! Don't talk nonsense and quickly post it all over the nine counties, and send people to publicize it, the speed must be fast, the exam will start at the end of next month, and there is not much time left for those who come to the exam!" Taixuan angrily drove Deng Mao away.

"Notice, the officials of the nine counties have come to see me in the state pastor's mansion, and I will also take a good look at these people, and those who don't come within the time limit will be killed!" Taixuan said to Gao Sheng, and instructed: "Take care of the messengers below you, don't blackmail, deliberately don't pass them on, I don't want to behead them after the incident, we didn't come to be corrupt officials after the incident!"

"No, I will personally supervise them, and I must not let them follow in the footsteps of the street people, and if there is, I will personally behead them!" Gao Sheng gave a promise and went down to do business.

"You can stay here and help me with some chores!" Taixuan said to Cheng Yuanzhi, and began to bow his head to deal with the affairs at hand.

In a month, Jiaozhou is more prosperous and stable than before, Taixuan abolished the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes of the county guards, unified taxation, there are Taiping Dao people everywhere to publicize, no one dares to reach out to change, there are more officials killed recently, and they have just been rebelled by the Yellow Turban, no one dares to move.

"Have you heard, the new state pastoral government is going to take the exam to show filial piety, it's not the original recommendation, as long as you have talent and no matter your background, you can take the test, and if you get admitted, you can become an official!"

"Yes, Lord Yellow Turban can't get used to those who raise filial piety, filial piety is controlled by those wealthy families, and there is no day for us ordinary people to come out!" another man sighed there.

"I'm going to take one of the exams too, I'm also literate, maybe I can really take the exam and come back, and glorify my ancestors!"

"Three stunned you, you can be admitted, wouldn't I be even more admitted, hahaha!" The whole teahouse was filled with happy air.

From the informant of Tang Zhou in the middle of February to the rebellion in Jiaozhou, it was already prepared that Jiaozhou had fallen into the hands of Taixuan at the end of February. In March and April, Taixuan was combing through the finances, politics, and military of the entire nine counties of Jiaozhou. The financial aspect is to pay taxes, inventory of stocks, grain and grass, taxes have not been moved, that is, the endowment has been unified, and the state pastor must nod before the nine counties can start other new endowments. The government is also simple, just rebelled and seized Jiaozhou, in addition to pulling out and cutting off the head, those who are supported by others will continue to be your official, the ability is good, and the dismissal of those who do not support it, take care of it first, and go to the military tun to farm the land. The army has been handed over to Guan Hai to deal with, Guan Hai's ability is still okay, the army is good, and the force is profound, and it can definitely shock these garrisons.

At the end of May, the first examination of the Han Dynasty began, and four or five thousand people came to participate, which frightened Taixuan. Jiaozhou is located in the frontier, not valued by the court, let alone education, unlike the Central Plains Confucian lectures with students, for example, Yingchuan is famous all over the country, the wealthy family controls the age of knowledge, literacy is difficult, Jiaozhou actually has so many people to take the examination, it is indeed unexpected.

The state pastor is performing in the martial arts field, Guan Hai is dispatching troops to maintain order, and Taiping Dao preachers are checking their identities. Taixuan stood at the head of the city and looked at the orderly team below, rejoicing in his heart: "When I first came to Jiaozhou, a thousand people were literate, two Taoist scriptures and a few medical books were literate, and I was able to read more than 10,000 words. ”

"Elder, the Xinzhou Pastor sent by the imperial court has entered the territory of Jiaozhou, what should I do with him?" Cheng Yuanzhi stepped forward to report.

"Control it first, please come to the state governor's mansion, I'll see you, who is the name of the person who came?" Tai Xuantou asked without replying.

"Jia Cong, the word Meng Jian, a native of Liaocheng, Dongjun, has the name of being honest and honest. Cheng Yuanzhi replied.

"It's a talent, let's invite it first, be polite, you don't have to leave if you come, there is a shortage of people!" Taixuan sighed, it was not easy to get a talent, how could you let it go.

Three days later, the examination was over, and Taixuan began to read the papers. Those who are not literate much, brushed off more than half of the people, these people are all here to join in the fun, and in the end there are only more than 800 copies that can be seen to be eye-catching, and finally 300 people are admitted. Taixuan found a capable person Li Jin, who answered the questionnaire and read the scriptures and history, and even answered the nine chapters of arithmetic correctly, and repeatedly looked at other people who were indeed no more outstanding than him, and he was the champion.

Half a month later, the list was released, and the entire martial arts arena was crowded and lively, and the people who were in the exam danced with their hands, and those who were not on the list were depressed.

"Meng Jian, how do you feel after watching it?" At the head of the city, Tai Xuan asked Jia Cong, a man in his forties who was dressed as a scholar, next to him.

"Dao Dacai, once this examination is out, there will be no place for filial piety and honesty to survive, and the current Jiaozhou can do this, and whoever dares to do this in other states will have no place to die!" Jia Cong replied. Jia Cong was trapped in Jiaozhou and couldn't get out, so he had to deal with it first, he still had a big man in his heart, and he was still unwilling to surrender to the yellow scarf for the time being.

"If Jiaozhou is handed over to Meng Jian to govern, are you willing to help Poor Dao govern the entire Jiaozhou?" Tai Xuan suddenly said something that made Jia Cong's heart skip a beat.
