This used to be the territory of the Chu State, and now it has also welcomed the officials of the Qin State. When the Qin State officials first arrived, the people here were very frightened, because they heard that the Qin people loved cannibalism the most, and they heard that they liked
Eating human heads. This is probably because of the malicious slander of the Chu State, or perhaps it is a rumor born from the combination of some habits of the Hu people in the north and the beheading habit of the Qin people. The Chu people here are very afraid.
For a long time, the Chu people here lived under great fear and did not dare to go out. After the officials of the State of Qin came here, they did not catch them and eat them. The officials who came
The number is not too large. Moreover, they can also speak fluent Chu language, which alleviates some people's fears. If they can communicate normally, they will not kill and eat people at will, right?
Officials patrolled all over the city every day, inspecting the inner walls, farmland, and trees. The Chu people secretly said that they were trying to steal our things. However, the Chu Kingdom had been destroyed, and they did not have the courage to come out to resist these officials again.
, we can only leave it to fate. After a long period of time, the officials finally began to visit and investigate from house to house, find these people to inquire about the situation, and compile household registrations for them.
Liu Xuan was sitting in the courtyard, his hands trembling slightly. Although he tried to look calm, his pale face and the sweat on his forehead made it impossible for him to calm down. He was still very scared. He took a deep breath
He took a breath, hoping to save the lives of his family members. Not only him, but his two wives and his two sons all looked so scared at this moment.
They all lowered their heads and did not dare to face the officials in front of them.
At this time, Liu Xuan couldn't help but think of his bastard son. Although that guy was a bastard, he could speak and was brave. If he were here, he would probably go to the officials first without waiting for them to come to him.
However, there was no news from his son after he went to Wei State, and it was not known whether he was alive or dead. Thinking of this, Liu Xuan suddenly lost his fear. He raised his head and looked at the officials in front of him.
"Can you read?"
"do not know."
"How many sons do you have in total?"
"There are four people, the eldest son Liu Bo, the second son Zhong who has passed away, and the third son Ji and the fourth son Jiao." Liu Xuan said, and asked his sons to introduce himself, and then introduced his two wives. The officials carefully recorded
As he was writing down everything, he suddenly asked: "Your third son Liu Ji?"
"He went to Wei State earlier." Liu Xuan was a little embarrassed. He didn't know how to explain his son's whereabouts.
The official seemed to have remembered something. He frowned and pondered for a long time, and asked, "Does your son have a high forehead and a beautiful beard?" When the official asked, Liu Xuan was shocked and said hurriedly:
"That's true, how did you know?" The official suddenly laughed. He stood up quickly, bowed slightly to Liu Xuan, and said, "Please forgive me for not coming to see you earlier."
"What are you"
"I was in the same song with your son. I was the corps commander and he was the commander of another place. He treated me as a friend and told him that his home was in Feng County. I really didn't expect that.
, it’s actually here," the official said with a smile. Liu Xuan was confused, so he asked: "What song? How long is it??", the official said: "Yes, we were originally under the command of Lord Yiyang to attack the Guangling area."
"He joined the Qin Army? Then why didn't he come to see me?!" Liu Xuan was really confused. He didn't know what the officials were talking about, crusade against the Chu State? Who was Lord Yiyang? He had some doubts.
asked: "Did you remember it wrong? My son?" Liu Xuan didn't want to belittle his son around people who might know him, but he really doubted in his heart whether there was another one.
Liu Ji.
Exchange good books and follow the vx official account. Follow now and receive cash red envelopes!
The official burst out laughing. He looked at the old man in front of him seriously, nodded heavily and said, "No, just with this face, I can confirm that what I am talking about is your son. He stood up during the crusade against Chu."
He has made a lot of contributions, and it is said that he followed the army to attack Qi State. You don't have to worry, Qi State has been destroyed, and he should be back to see you soon." The official said, and his attitude towards Taigong Liu was very polite.
.
Taigong Liu couldn't help but ask about other things about his son. Unfortunately, the officials and Liu Ji were just acquaintances, and they didn't know much. They just knew that he had many friends, and they all liked him from the generals to the lower-level soldiers.
When interacting with him, although he likes to interact with others, he never breaks the law, does not give gifts, does not ask for favors, and does not gather to drink. He is very clear about the law and often takes the initiative to explain the Ma Fu Shu to other soldiers.
After seeing off the officials, Liu Taigong couldn't help but laugh. He turned around and looked at his children. His son Liu Zhong was very honest and honest. When he learned that his third brother was fighting with Qin, he didn't feel happy.
There was no jealousy, not even injustice. He was just a little worried. He frowned and asked, "Combat is a very dangerous thing. I hope he returns safely."
Liu Ji's mother couldn't believe it. She said her son loved making friends. She believed it, but he loved reading. She wouldn't believe it even to death. After he came out of his womb, he hated books very much. He learned
It was very fast, but he often stopped learning after studying for a few days. In any case, Taigong Liu breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at his wife triumphantly and said, "He followed me! He followed me!"
With that said, he was about to go out.
"where are you going?"
"Hahaha, it's okay, I just went to chat with my friends."
Zhao Kuo has been very busy these days, because the first middle school has been established, and he has to find a suitable teacher for this middle school, because the middle school in Zhao Kuo's heart is the future substitute of the school, so he can be a teacher here.
Those who train officials for the Qin Dynasty must have certain abilities, preferably practical talents, and be able to teach students how to become qualified officials. They must be able to teach students from all aspects.
Zhao Kuo wanted to find someone for help, so naturally there were countless people who came to him. There were all kinds of people, including old officials who had retired at home, young people who came here because of their fame, and even those who lived in seclusion in the mountains and old forests.
Zhao Kuo, the great sage among them, came to meet these people in person and see if they were suitable. Some old officials were too old and Zhao Kuo couldn't bear to keep them busy. Teaching children is a very tiring task.
As for some young people who were not talented enough, Zhao Kuo did not dare to let them take on such an important responsibility easily.
As for those so-called celebrities, most of them are empty talkers and few are talented. Just like the old man from Qilu who was almost scared away by Zhao Kuo. If you ask them to talk, they can talk about everything, but if you ask them
When it comes to concrete things, they can't do anything. Zhao Kuo himself is such a person. He only knows how to talk. To do things concretely, he still has to rely on these practical officials in the temple.
It was Lu Buwei in the past and Li Si now. They were both faithfully implementing Zhao Kuo's empty talk and turning empty talk into reality. Therefore, Zhao Kuo felt that in terms of achievements, both Li Si and Lu Buwei far exceeded him.
What's interesting is that when Lu Buwei heard that Zhao Kuo was going to open a middle school, he couldn't wait to come for the interview, which made Zhao Kuo dumbfounded. At your level, the worst is a university. What are you doing in a middle school? Therefore, Zhao Kuo will
This old guy was driven away, and he planned to invite him to help him when the university was established. In this way, Zhao Kuo prepared a total of more than 60 suitable candidates.
Lu Buwei also recommended several people.
Zhao Kuo felt that it would be enough to summon four more people. Because this was a public matter, aspirants from all over the world could go out in the name of applying for academic exams and offering wine. They had special passes that allowed officials along the way to go out.
No more embarrassment for them, otherwise they would not be able to go out in the Qin State. Zhao Kuo also met aspirants from all over the country, but unfortunately most of these people just came to see him and did not really want to engage in education.
Zhao Kuo rubbed his forehead. After many days of interviews, he was a little tired. Lu Buwei was also sitting on the side, looking at the people who came to visit him. Lu Buwei couldn't sit still and had to come to help Zhao Kuo. Naturally, Zhao Kuo didn't.
Zhao Kuo felt a little tired and wanted to leave for a while, but when he saw the young people waiting anxiously in front of him, he decided to hold on a little longer.
"Meet the Marquis of Wucheng."
This is a young man with a strong Chu dialect accent. The young man looks very easy-going, with a light smile on his face. He is very friendly, has a slender figure, and has a very good appearance. What Zhao Kuo likes the most.
, are his clothes. Compared with those who dress themselves carefully, this young man's clothes are quite simple and very thrifty. Zhao Kuo likes such people very much. No one in the world can wear complete clothes.
The extravagant clothes of the noble man were a bit dazzling to Zhao Kuo.
Zhao Kuo nodded with satisfaction. Just with this appearance, Zhao Kuo felt that he was good, diligent, thrifty, and easy-going. This young man was good.
"Are you from Chu?"
"Everyone in the world is from Qin, so where are the people from Chu?"
"Hahaha", Zhao Kuo did not expect that this guy would say zzzq as soon as he opened his mouth. However, this is also a necessary thing for an official. He was not disgusted. He nodded and said with a smile: "You said it.
Yes, this Qin man, where are you from?"
"Peijun Fengxian."
"Pei Junfeng." Zhao Kuo was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and continued to look at the elegant and easy-going young man in front of him. Zhao Kuo asked with some uncertainty: "What's your name?"
"Xiao He."
"Oh~" Zhao Kuo looked at the young man in front of him meaningfully, thoughtfully. Xiao He was a little strange. He thought Zhao Kuo didn't believe him, so he took out his identity certificate and showed it to Zhao Kuo.
Kuo looked at it for a long time and then asked: "You come to my place to serve as a high school sacrificial wine?" Xiao He said without thinking: "I dare not hide it. I have liked studying law and reading since I was a child, but I don't have many books at home.
There is no teacher to guide me.”
"I am here this time just to help you with your work so that you can teach me."
Lu Buwei was stunned. He looked at the young man in front of him. In these days, he was the first person to speak his true thoughts so frankly. This man was still a bit interesting. Zhao Kuo suddenly asked: "I
We need to change the military merit system and implement a new system, what do you think about this matter?"
"I don't think it's good. The people in the world are tired now. What they need is rest, not uninterrupted government orders. If we can give them a few years of peaceful life, reduce taxes, reduce the interference of the law, and let them be free
Farm, enjoy the peaceful years, and cultivate yourself. After a few years of this, there will no longer be any objection to the temple in any place. And you don't want to change the military merit system, you want to abolish it."
"The military merit system is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The correct approach should be to first expand the grassroots titles and devalue them, and then reduce the level of the titles to blur the gap between the lower ranks. However, your current approach is too risky, just because you have enough prestige.
Therefore, it can be executed. If it were someone else, even if Lord Shang were reincarnated, it would not be possible."
"Different systems need to be supported by new laws. Now you are reforming the system, but you have ignored the laws."
Before Xiao He finished speaking, Zhao Kuo frowned and said angrily: "Young people don't want to be ranked as Chehou in the future and assist the king to govern the world, but they want to be a high school priest in Xianyang?
Just stand here for me! Wait until I finish my work!"
Xiao He was stunned. He looked at Zhao Kuo in front of him, dumbfounded. Was he praising himself? Or scolding himself? Should he thank Zhao Kuo for affirming him? Or should he apologize hastily?? He looked at Zhao Kuo in front of him blankly.
Kuo and Lu Buwei nodded and stood behind Zhao Kuo. Zhao Kuo continued to examine the young people in front of him and quickly decided on the remaining four places.
Lu Buwei looked at Zhao Kuo's expression and understood in his heart that Zhao Kuo was attracted to this young man. Not only him, Lu Buwei also admired this young man now. At this age, he can see so many things, which is already very good.
, and it is even more rare to be able to say it in front of Zhao Kuo. According to Zhao Kuo, this kid has the talent to serve as the prime minister!
Lu Buwei stroked his beard and couldn't help but sigh, there are so many talents.
Zhao Kuo quickly finished what he was doing and called Xiao He to follow him. He said goodbye to Lu Buwei. Lu Buwei stood up with some lingering thoughts and said, "I can't help you now. I'm waiting for your university."
It's established, but don't forget to leave a place for me to offer wine." Zhao Kuo agreed to him and left the mansion with Xiao He, Xiao He followed Zhao Kuo uneasily.
Along the way, Zhao Kuo said nothing, and Xiao He didn't know what to do. They just walked all the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The soldiers did not dare to stop them, so they allowed them to walk in and walked into the prime minister's mansion. They happened to see the furious Li Si pointing at Zhang Cang in front of him and scolding, "Is this how the teacher taught you? You got such a simple thing wrong.
You also told me that you want to be the prime minister in the future? Oh, that’s right, you can also be the prime minister with your strength. After all, the prime minister today only knows empty talk and doesn’t do anything serious!!”
"Do you think all the prime ministers in the world can do this? Is your teacher Chehou? Have you taught the emperor?"
Han Fei squinted his eyes and pretended that he didn't hear anything.
Li Si was cursing when he suddenly saw Zhao Kuo walking in. He stopped in embarrassment and hurriedly bowed to see him. Zhao Kuo didn't blame him. During these days, Li Si was almost going crazy from torture. He was so excited and it was also
It's understandable. Zhao Kuo pointed to the young man beside him and said to Li Si: "Let him help you too. He learns things quickly. If you teach him, he will adapt quickly."
After saying that, Zhao Kuo left in a hurry.
Only Xiao He, Li Si, Han Fei and others were left looking at each other.
Zhang Cang looked at the young man who was suddenly sent in front of him. He was silent for a long time and asked:
