It is no wonder that Liu Biao was dissatisfied. He was a dignified "uncle of the emperor, general of Zhennan, and pastor of Jingzhou. He had to appoint a chief history officer and a Sima to serve as a lieutenant. He opened a government office and established a summons. His manners were like those of the three Dukes. He was the governor of the three states of Jiao, Yang, Yi, and Ji Yi. "Southeast Affairs" actually does not have the power to appoint the three counties of Changsha, Lingling and Guiyang in southern Jingnan. It makes people laugh when they say it.
Of course, although Zhang Xian dissatisfied with Liu Biao's appointment, he did not dare to appoint an official blatantly. He had to ask the court for instructions every time. Now Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang counties are among the few in the thirteen states in the world that the court is qualified to intervene. Personnel area.
Liu Biao had no choice, but Zhang Xian didn't care, because the real power of the three counties was in the hands of him and his old officials. With one word from him, everyone from the prefect to the county magistrate would pack up and leave. No one could shake him. His rule as the Lord of Jingnan.
Facing Liu Biao's inquiry, Liu Jing did not panic. He had done enough "homework" before coming, so he said calmly: "The general is a graceful gentleman, with the demeanor of an elder, and is known for his benevolence and righteousness in the world. Kill Sun Jian but return his body, kill Zhang Ji but not receive congratulations, and so on. General... "Yi" says: 'Those who are helped by heaven are obedient; those who are helped by man are also trustworthy.' Generals follow the letter and think of obedience. , God will protect you, everything will be fine, and there will be no disadvantages..."
Zhang Xian is Liu Jing's monarch. Of course he can't help Liu Biao come up with ideas to deal with Zhang Xian, otherwise when he returns to Changsha, he will be drowned in the saliva of the people of Changsha. There is no way, he can't hide, he can only say some nonsense. , if it is big and transformed.
Liu Biao was not very satisfied with Liu Jingyan's answer, and said: "Zhang Changsha has a stubborn character and wants to love alone but cannot do it. What should he do?"
Liu Jing slowly replied: "The Book of Rites says: 'If you love and know its evil, if you hate it and know its good, it is unique in the world.' If you like it and know its shortcomings, if you hate it and know its advantages, if a general can do the above Two points, naturally you don’t have to worry about it anymore.”
"..." Liu Biao secretly had a headache. Liu Jing never left the "Five Classics" and advised everything with the words of a sage. How could he continue to ask?
Liu Jingying had a faint smile on his face. He went north this time and took a boat ride for more than twenty days. He had nothing to do on weekdays, so he just thought about how to deal with today's situation. He had accumulated a lot of holy teachings from saints. Could it be that Are you still afraid that you can't stop Liu Biao?
Liu Biao took a deep look at Liu Jing, knowing that continuing to ask would not bring any good results. He finally gave up asking about sensitive topics such as Jing Nan and Zhang Xian, and instead asked about the general situation of the world.
Seeing this, Liu Jing felt a little regretful. He had worked hard and only achieved one or two achievements before he came to an abrupt end, which made him feel that his intention was not yet fulfilled. However, this was not the main purpose of his coming here; The purpose was to "show off talents" to Liu Biao, and talking about the general trend of the world was exactly what he wanted.
Du attacked Nanshi Changsha because he prevented Fan Qin from the same county from showing his talents to Liu Biao, which was tabooed by Liu Biao. Of course Liu Jing did this not to change his family, but to use Liu Biao to force Zhang Xian. Liu Biao behaved more and more toward him. The more attention he pays, the more "worried" Zhang Xian will be. In order to retain him, Zhang Xian can only continue to increase the stakes and form a "balance" with Liu Biao.
The bargaining chip that Liu Jing wanted was "the leader of a county, the leader of a hundred miles", so he had to show his "extraordinary" talents to Liu Biao, and it would be best if Liu Biao could recommend him as a "major talent".
Maocai was called Xiucai in ancient times. In order to avoid the name taboo of Emperor Wu Liu Xiu, Xiu was changed to Mao.
The so-called "the county promotes filial piety and integrity, and the state promotes talented people", both are the most orthodox methods of selecting officials in the Han Dynasty. After promoting filial piety and integrity, people usually serve as Langguan, Juncheng, County Magistrate, and County Magistrate. And Maocai
It's much simpler and more crude, just start with the county magistrate or magistrate.
If Liu Biao promoted him as a talented person, Zhang Xian could only promote him as Xiaolian to compete with him, and he also asked the court to appoint him as the head of a county. If he didn't do this, how could he keep Liu Jing?
After all, who would stop being the head of a county and continue to be a small official with hundreds of stones?
For the sake of his own future, Liu Jing talked wildly about the world. Although he repeatedly restrained himself to avoid "leakage", his words and deeds were still shocking to the people in the hall. Liu Biao jumped out of his seat several times and said,
Startled".
Liu Xian, Deng Xi, Song Zhong and others were also shocked. Lai Gong was the only one in the hall, who was still calm because he had heard Liu Jing's remarks yesterday, but now it seems that he had
I only reserved four to five points at most.
When Liu Jing finished speaking, the hall fell into dead silence.
For a long time, Liu Biao called the left and right and sighed: "How can there be such a prophet in the world? Isn't Zhongda not the weakest this year?" When Sima Qian wrote the biography of Liuhou (Zhang Liang), he said: "Scholars talk too much about ghosts and gods.
However, there are things. For example, when Liu Hou saw the old man, he wrote to him, "Is it possible that Zhongda also has ghosts and gods to help him?"
Liu Jing was startled when he heard this, and thought to himself: "Is this too much force?" He quickly said: "The general is ridiculously complimentary. How can he dare to compare his superficial opinions with Liuhou?"
Deng Xi praised him: "Zhongda doesn't have to be too modest. You have the talents of a king and your stay in Changsha is really a secret investment."
He even thought that Liu Jing had lost his talent in Xiangyang, and perhaps only the Xu County court was the most suitable place for him to show his talents.
Although Liu Xian and Lai Gong were from Lingling County in southern Jingnan, they agreed with Deng Xi's statement that Liu Jing should not continue to stay in Changsha, as there was no way for him to fully display his talents there.
Song Zhong couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that Zhongda is a national weapon, but I promised it as a Confucian scholar. How ridiculous!"
Liu Biao gradually calmed down. Liu Jing, this is a talent that must be firmly grasped in his hands. Even if he cannot use it for himself, he definitely cannot use it for Zhang Xian. He immediately made up his mind, stood up and came to Liu Jing, holding his hand.
, straight to the point:
"When the state selects scholars, there is a common saying: 'There are talented people with extraordinary deeds, such as Yan Yuan and Qi Zi, regardless of age.' Zhang Changsha's eldest son, Zhang Yi, was only 18 years old. He was promoted by Zhang Changsha as Xiaolian and paid a visit to Linxiang County.
However, Zhongda, who is also eighteen years old, is still serving as the chief clerk. How unfair is Zhang Changsha! He ignores talented people, how can I just sit back and watch? Gu Jin intends to promote Zhongda as a talented person, what does Zhongda think?
?”
Liu Biao's words were very good, and he ridiculed Zhang Xianhao.
"Thank you for your attention, General. However, I am getting married soon, so I might not be able to do it in a hurry." When the opportunity came, Liu Jing became "reserved" instead. This was not because he was deliberately showing off, but because he had no choice but to face Liu Biao's solicitation.
I can neither agree nor reject clearly, so I have to use the word "drag" to decide.
When Liu Biao saw that Liu Jing did not refuse sternly, he felt confident in his heart. He himself was the leader of the scholars, and no one knew the psychology of the scholars better than him. He smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this? Winter is coming now, Zhong
Da will spend the winter peacefully at home, and next year I will promote Zhong Da as a talented person."
