Now that things have come, Zhang Xiu is not afraid of others guessing what he thinks, nor is he afraid of someone resisting.

For example, Yoshimoto and his son, Wang Zifu and other loyal ministers in the Han Dynasty have been killed by him. Within the ten counties, those who have the ability to rebel against him have ended.

Now only Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Sun Jian, Liu Bei and others are left.

Now his elite soldiers and generals guard all directions, and ten counties are very safe.

It is peaceful for the time being, and Luoyang still needs to be managed for a while. Zhang Xiu was idle and thought of warmth.

That morning, Zhang Xiu was reading a book in the study. Dian Wei walked in from outside and reported to Zhang Xiu: "Mr. Ming Gong, Mrs. He asked me to prepare a carriage and go to the tomb of King Hongnong."

He knew very little about Mrs. He who gave birth to Zhang Xiu's eldest son Zhang Yong. However, Dian Wei was nearby at that time. He was a little doubtful about Empress Dowager He's identity, but never asked about it.

Zhang Xiu allowed this matter. He first asked, "Where is Mrs. Tang?"

"Mrs. Tang didn't say she was going." Dian Wei shook his head and said.

Zhang Xiu showed a thoughtful look and looked up at Dian Wei and said, "Arrange, there are fifty warriors and close entourages."

"promise."

Dian Wei Yingnuo said, turned around and left.

"The reason why these two women flatter me was to kill Dong Zhuo and avenge me. Now that the purpose has been achieved, my wish has been fulfilled. Queen Mother He wants to pay tribute to Liu Bian. Concubine Tang was originally Liu Bian's queen, but she had a hurdle in her heart and would not go."

"No matter what, this is a break. They will only be some special beautiful concubines in my inner house from now on."

Zhang Xiu thought to himself. Then he shook his head and put the matter temporarily.

Then he remembered Cai Yan. This was his identified wife, the eldest wife in the family, and the future queen of the Zhang Dynasty.

Now Cai Yan, Zou family and some people are on their way to Luoyang.

"I'm about to get married, so why not have a big deal." Zhang Xiu had an idea in his mind, and then said to a personal soldier outside the door: "Come here. Go and invite the former general, the left general, the Grand Marshal, and the general chief."

"No." The personal soldiers agreed and went down immediately.

The Grand Marshal Cai Yong will not mention it for now. He is just a three-monarch and has no real power.

The remaining three are important officials in the court. At present, Luoyang is only initially stable. In fact, there are many internal problems to be dealt with, and they are very busy every day.

But since Zhang Xiu summoned them, they would come no matter how busy they were.

Not long after, all four of them came. Xi Zhicai, Chen Gong, and Jia Xu would not talk about it for the time being. The feelings of the Grand Marshal Cai Yong towards Zhang Xiu were extremely complicated.

When we first met, the two of us already had a good relationship.

Later, Dong Zhuo took over Luoyang, recruited Cai Yong as an official, and promoted him vigorously. He regarded Dong Zhuo as his benefactor. Although Dong Zhuo was cruel and tyrannical, he really had some feelings for Dong Zhuo.

During that time, Zhang Xiu and him were friends for a long time and were a very good couple.

But no one knew that this young friend actually took charge of the government affairs in the subsequent changes. He was appointed as the Grand Sima, General, Sili County Captain, and was responsible for the affairs of the Shangshu, and was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the military affairs of China and abroad.

There is only one core of a series of official positions. This is the first person in the court and the only senior official.

What he unexpectedly did was that he was appointed as the Grand Marshal because of Zhang Xiu and was awarded the title of the Three Secretariat (Three Duke).

For many people, the third king is already at the peak of his life. He was displaced in his early years and even avoided trouble in Jianghuai. He never expected that when he was middle-aged and elderly, he would have such an opportunity.

Cai Yong was very grateful to Zhang Xiu. Among the three masters, he was also the only one, Zhang Xiu's staunch supporter.

The master and apprentice Yang Biao was an old minister of the Han Dynasty. His family was prominent and very distant from Zhang Xiu.

Although Sikong and Liu Biao were afraid of Zhang Xiu, he did not truly support Zhang Xiu.

After a ceremony, everyone sat down. The Taiwei had no real power, but his status was the most prominent, so Cai Yong was ranked above Xi Zhicai, sitting first on the left and the first on the right was Xi Zhicai.

The second place on the left is Chen Gong, and the second place on the right is Jia Xu, which is the last seat.

"The Grand Sima asked me to come, but is there a big deal?" Cai Yong bowed and bowed his hands.

"Mr. Cai doesn't have to be too serious. It's not a big deal, but I do have a plan." Zhang Xiu smiled and then said enthusiastically.

Cai Yong's expression was a little relaxed, but he still looked calm and obedient. Looking at his appearance, Zhang Xiu felt a little embarrassed.

This matter seems to be a little more fanfare?

Zhang Xiu coughed lightly before saying, "I built a recruitment hall in Lueyang County in my early years. It was managed by the famous scholar Faqing."

"The effect is remarkable. Many poor scholars came to the recruitment hall. General Xi (Xi Zhicai) obtained many useful talents to govern counties. I plan to build a recruitment hall in Luoyang City to serve as the main hall. Recruiting talents, gathering scholars from ten counties and even the world's scholars to live in it, specializing in researching and studying as a backup official of the court."

This is a good thing, a great thing.

In the past, when the Han Dynasty selected officials, there were very few ways. There were three normal channels for recruitment (the three public officials had the right to recruit famous scholars as officials), and filial and honest people (filial and honest people) were selected in prefectures and counties, and talented people (talents with talent).

But later, these channels became corrupt. Anything would be ruined if the administration was corrupt.

Finally, he reached the point where he was separated from his father by filial piety and honesty (separation from his father was unfilial), and he did not know the books by raising his talents.

Zhang Xiu’s recruitment hall in Lueyang County has a very complete system, not just for scholars to live in.

Scholars will be assessed, and excellent people can come out to be officials. People with expertise can be specialized officials. For example, some people are good at controlling water, so they become water officials.

In short, this is a very good channel for the imperial court to reserve officials.

Now Zhang Xiu has just begun to master the government. Although Xi Zhicai, Chen Gong, Jia Xu and others are all Mingxiu, they are only good at it and have few people under their command.

If you deal with many things, you will get half the result with twice the effort. Only with helpers and people who can beat them can they handle the government affairs of the court more efficiently.

However, before Cai Yong could agree, Zhang Xiu smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I also plan to build a bronze croaker platform outside the city. As an important place for the imperial court's activities, it also demonstrates the prestige of the imperial court."

A majestic building can add majesty.

For example, an envoy from the Western Regions came to Luoyang and saw the majestic city walls, he couldn't help but feel admiration.

Zhang Xiu planned to build a bronze croaker platform outside the city, which was barely an excuse.

But it was too far-fetched. Cai Yong immediately objected and said sincerely to Zhang Xiu: "Ming Gong. I agree with the recruitment hall. But I don't think it is necessary to know that the former Emperor Wen (Emperor Wen of Han) wanted to build a terrace and summon craftsmen to ask how much it costs. The craftsmen answered [Hundred Gold]. Hundred Gold is the property of ten medium-sized families. Emperor Wen thought it was a pity, so he no longer built a terrace. Although Ming Gong is now in Shenwu, his political corruption is not a day's cold, and the court's finances are in short supply. It is a pity to spend people's efforts and financial resources to build a bronze vegetation."

Although Cai Yong did not have real power, he was a well-educated master. What he said was very reasonable. Zhang Xiu was speechless.

Chen Gong and Xi Zhicai also agreed with Cai Yong and couldn't help but speak out for advice. Only Jia Xu was a slick person. He thought it was all a trivial matter, and as long as Zhang Xiu was happy, it would be fine.

Zhang Xiu had no choice but to use his trump card, looked up and said, "I plan to get married at Tongquetai."

Everyone was stunned, and then Jia Xu immediately bowed and said, "Ming Gong. I think the bronze bird platform can be built."

Jia Xu is a sleek, general and chief secretary, and his relationship with Zhang Xiu is the trunk and branches. He didn't care about this trivial matter at first, but now Zhang Xiu said he wanted to build a bronze croaker platform to get married, so he naturally agreed.

Xi Zhicai and Chen Gong also hesitated.

After the [Wuqiong Incident], Xi Zhicai and Chen Gong both knew Zhang Xiu’s ambitions and strongly supported this.

If it weren't for Zhang Xiu, how could they have been awarded the [Prime Minister] and manipulated the power of the government at a young age?

Without Zhang Xiu, they are nothing.

And Zhang Xiu is good at everything, but he doesn't have a serious wife.

Although there are a lot of sons, they are all born by concubines, and they are not justified. Only with a serious wife and a legitimate son can you inherit the family business.

This was a serious matter. They thought about it for a while and decided not to refute it.

Cai Yong was stunned at first, and then he didn't say anything. His thoughts were the same as those of Chen Gong and Xi Zhi.

"Congratulations to Mr. Ming." Cai Yong was really happy for the young friend and bowed to Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu's expression was a little strange when he heard this, and then bowed to Mr. Cai Yong and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Cai."

"Well!!!!!"

Now it was Cai Yong and others who were surprised. Congratulations, where did the joy come from?

Zhang Xiu immediately realized that Cai Yan was robbed by him, which was somewhat disgraceful. He didn't say much, and laughed and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Cai, I've had a wedding wine."

"Hahaha." Everyone was relieved, and Cai Yong pinched his beard and laughed.

"Who should I ask to take care of this matter?" Zhang Xiu also smiled and then asked with a tight grace.

Xi Zhicai thought for a moment and replied, "You can let the Shaofu manage it."

Zhang Xiu was stunned when he heard this, can it be?

He knew that the young mansion was one of the nine ministers of the imperial court. This nobleman mainly managed the emperor's wallet.

There is a difference between the emperor's money bag and the national treasury. The former means that the emperor will spend whatever he wants.

The money in the treasury needs the consent of the court officials to be spent.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiu asked, "Don't there be a Shangshutai? Isn't there anyone in charge?"

Xi Zhicai was the Shangshu Ling, so he naturally replied: "Report to Gong Ming."

"There are six ministers of Cao in the Shangshutai, and the position of the Shangshu is set up in five people, one is the Secretary of the Five Military Affairs Office, who manages military, horses, money and grain. One is the Secretary of the Zuomin, one is the Secretary of the Guest, one is the Secretary of the Duzhi, and the other is the Secretary of the Ministry of Personnel. None of them is in charge of civil engineering."

Zhang Xiu knew the role of the Shangshu Desk before, but he lacked understanding of the Shangshu Desk. Now, when he heard it, he combined it with the thoughts of later generations.

Isn’t this the original version of the Six Books of Shangshu?

But it sounds awkward to what the name is and it doesn’t have the Civil Engineering and Shangshu.

Zhang Xiu decided to change it.
Chapter completed!
