Liu Biao was indeed recommended to Dong Zhuo by Liu Jian.
The reason for recommending Liu Biao is simply because Liu Biao is indeed a candidate who can help Dong Zhuo implement the imperial examination system.
First of all, although Liu Biao was a famous scholar in the late Han Dynasty, he was also a member of the Han clan.
Driven by a sense of identity, the identity of Han clan clan occupies a very important place in his heart.
Therefore, even if he is a famous scholar, he cannot completely turn his body towards the noble side.
If he were to assist Dong Zhuo in implementing the imperial examination, Liu Biao would definitely be able to be relatively fair compared to others! And the degree of implementation would definitely be more thorough.
This is what Liu Jian has always firmly believed.
If you look at what Liu Biao did in history, you will know how suitable he is for this position.
Liu Biao studied under Wang Chang. Wang Chang was one of the eight heroes of the older generation. He held an official position and suppressed the powerful, respected the virtuous and polite, was very self-disciplined, and even went so far as to go overboard. He could be called an ideal Confucian scholar.
Liu Biao was greatly influenced by Wang Chang to a certain extent.
Liu Biao himself did not have the talent to conquer the world, but he had great ambitions. The establishment of a school was the most important and first step in his ambitions.
Historically, Liu Biao did a lot of cultural undertakings in Jingzhou. One was to educate scholars, the other was to establish official schools and the state established five industries, the third was to collect books, and the fourth was to run schools.
The fifth step in passing on the legacy is to compile chapters and sentences.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, all industries in the world were in ruins, but only Liu Biao was able to flourish both official and private schools in Jingzhou during the period of great chaos.
Learn the Six Classics, talk about gifts, harmonize with the eight tones, coordinate the rules and regulations, compile the calendar, analyze the criminal law, prepare the six strategies and ranks, and prepare the hundreds of clans.
Moreover, there was another key reason why Liu Jian recommended Liu Biao to Dong Zhuo to assist him in presiding over the failed imperial examinations, which promoted the great development of various schools.
That is, compared to others, Liu Biao will definitely be able to withstand the pressure from all aspects during the imperial examination and the establishment of schools.
Why did Liu Jian dare to claim this guarantee?
Very simply, because he was the lord of Jingzhou in history!
Although Jingzhou was a land of prosperity and happiness in history, this does not mean that Jingzhou is a peaceful place.
In history, Liu Biao managed Jingzhou properly and established official and private schools in Jingzhou, but this does not mean that he did not have pressure in Jingzhou.
Compared with the isolated Yizhou, Liu Biao was surrounded by Cao Cao to the north, Sun Ce and Sun Quan to the east, and Yuan Shu to the northeast.
There is also Zhang Xian's rebellion in the south.
It can be said that during the eighteen years that Liu Biao governed Jingzhou, there were many wars in Jingzhou.
Moreover, those who fought against Jingzhou were not mediocre, especially Cao Cao to the north of Jingzhou and Yuan Shu to the northeast, who always coveted the rich land of Jingzhou.
But in this situation of being coveted by all parties, Liu Biao managed to survive by studying and fighting at the same time.
Cao Cao did not take advantage of him, nor did Sun Ce or Sun Quan. Yuan Shu, who originally occupied Nanyang County, was driven to Huainan by Liu Biao.
Liu Jian believed that those who could establish schools within Jingzhou while fighting against foreign enemies under such circumstances would also be able to withstand the pressures of implementing the imperial examination system.
…
Liu Biao was already very surprised that Dong Zhuo summoned him to Chang'an. Now that he heard that it was Liu Jian, the shepherd of Jizhou, who persuaded Dong Zhuo to summon him to Chang'an, Liu Biao became even more confused.
He had naturally heard of Liu Jian's name. Not only had he heard of it, but he also had a very favorable impression of him.
After all, Liu Biao was also one of the party's officials, and the party's rule was finally solved because of the efforts of Yuan Ji and Liu Jian!
Now that Yuan Ji is dead, there are two people who the party officials in the world are most grateful to. One is Yuan Shao and the other is Liu Jian.
But he never expected that Liu Deran would actually recommend him to advance the imperial examination, and Liu Biao was extremely surprised.
Dong Zhuo saw Liu Biao's expression and immediately handed him the letter Liu Jian had written to him some time ago.
"You don't believe it? You'll know after you see it for yourself."
Liu Biao took the letter from Dong Zhuo's hand and read it carefully, with a shocked expression on his face.
That letter was indeed written by Liu Jian to Dong Zhuo recommending Liu Biao.
Moreover, Liu Biao was roughly described in it. Although the description of Liu Biao was somewhat idealistic, I have to admit that Liu Jian's description was still very pertinent in some aspects.
In Liu Jian's letter, Liu Biao seemed to have found a mirror and completely re-recognized himself from top to bottom.
"I never imagined that there are people in this world who know me so well?"
Liu Biao looked at it and said to himself in surprise.
Dong Zhuo stroked his beard and laughed.
"Liu Deran does have his own ability in recognizing people, which is unparalleled by others! Although he has never traveled all over the world, he can recognize all the heroes in the world. This alone is not as good as me!"
Speaking of this, Dong Zhuo saluted Liu Biao and said: "Jingsheng, the method of selecting people through the imperial examination is related to the foundation of the Han Dynasty. Although this move will shake the foundation of the world's scholars, the longer it is implemented, the more likely it will be."
We can increase the number of scholars in the world, take this as an opportunity to build a large number of schools, and make everyone in the world know about books and etiquette. This is an eternal achievement. I wonder if Jing Sheng can help me?"
Facing Dong Zhuo's invitation, Liu Biao couldn't help but feel excited.
He is already forty-eight years old and is about to turn fifty. It seems that he can count the days ahead clearly on his fingers.
He didn't expect to accomplish anything big in this life, but he never thought that at this age, he would be chosen by Dong Zhuo and Liu Jian, and asked him to perform such a big thing that would be passed down through the ages...or be infamy for thousands of years!
Imperial examination!
As an outstanding figure among scholars and with the ambition to start a school, Liu Biao naturally understood how huge and terrifying the impact of the imperial examination was.
But he also knew what a huge impact this incident would have on the world and future generations!
Are the interest groups touched by the imperial examination huge?
Naturally, it was huge. The imperial examination touched the core interests of the upper echelons of the Han Dynasty. The people touched by the imperial examination were enough to subvert the Han Dynasty.
But did the imperial examination have any harm to the world?
At least for now, Liu Biao cannot see that the imperial examination will do any harm to the world.
On the contrary, the imperial examination system for selecting officials can give more people the opportunity to be promoted.
It can indirectly promote the development of schools.
Whether you are from a high-ranking family or a wealthy family, or even a commoner, as long as you want to be an official, the prerequisite is to study!
Want to study!
As in the past, the days when one could rely on the recommendation of the family to go through the back door and get a few words of outstanding reputation from famous people to be promoted as filial and honest, may be gone forever.
Isn't this a good thing for the world?
Of course that's a good thing.
Thinking of this, Liu Biao's face showed a rare look of determination.
He bowed long to Dong Zhuo and said affirmatively: "This road is thorny, but since Xiangguo and General Zuo have trusted me, Liu Biao is willing to walk on this thorny road, even if his feet get sores from stepping on it, he will not hesitate!"
"
Hearing Liu Biao's affirmative answer, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but feel relieved.
He slapped the table vigorously and said: "Okay! Jing Sheng is indeed a hero. I did not misjudge the person, and Liu Deran did not recommend the wrong person! I have won Jing Sheng, which is like a tiger with added wings. Let's drink this honor!"
Liu Biao also raised the wine cup from the table and faced Dong Zhuo from afar.
"Drink it!"
…
…
Liu Biao was recommended by Dong Zhuo and stayed in Chang'an to help Dong Zhuo implement the New Deal.
At the same time, Liu Jian hugged Liu Biao's historical woman and fell asleep on the bed.
"My lord, my lord..."
The night was deep, but there was a sound outside the door, which woke Liu Jian from his sleep.
Liu Jian rubbed his eyes, turned around and looked at Cai Mi, who was as white as jade and charming, and couldn't help but move his throat slightly.
For three consecutive days, I was almost drained by this charming vixen.
Liu Jian stretched his waist slightly, put on his clothes, went to the ground, and came outside the house.
Outside the house stood his chief spy, Guoyuan.
Liu Jian knew that under normal circumstances, if there was nothing serious, Guoyuan would not come to his mansion to see him so late.
Especially when he went to his own house.
However, this is indeed the privilege Liu Jian gave Guoyuan.
Once there is something important, you can come to me at any time.
"What happened?"
Guoyuan spoke concisely and to the point.
"My lord, something big has happened indeed. Over in Chang'an, Liu Biao, one of Dong Zhuo's eighth cousins, has been appointed as the commander-in-chief with five senses."
"good!"
Hearing what Guoyuan said, Liu Jian couldn't help but clapped his hands excitedly.
"The New Deal is finally here!"
Guoyuan looked at Liu Jian cautiously and said slowly: "My lord, once this plan comes out, will the world be in chaos again?"
"Definitely!"
Liu Jian narrowed his eyes and said: "In less than three months, war will break out in the world! But no matter how far this war will develop, we must fight it."
"If we win, the New Deal will be established."
"If we lose the battle, the court's actions will be in vain."
The number of words in these two chapters today is a little smaller. Let me slowly increase the number of words.
