Chapter 120

No wonder Liu Biao was dissatisfied, he was dignified "Uncle Huang, General of Zhennan, Mu of Jingzhou, Dezhi Changshi, Sima, Engaged in Zhonglang, Kaifu Bizhao, Yiru Sangong, Governor of Jiao, Yang, and Yizhou, Ji Yi Southeastern affairs", there is no appointment power for the three counties of Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang in Jingnan, and it makes people laugh out loud.

Of course, although Zhang Xian refused to accept Liu Biao's appointment, he did not dare to blatantly appoint an official. He had to ask the court for instructions every time. Now the three counties of Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang can be regarded as one of the few courts in the thirteen prefectures in the world who are qualified to intervene. Personnel area.

Liu Biao has no choice, but Zhang Xian doesn't care, because the real power of the three counties is in the hands of him and his old officials. If he says a word, everyone from the prefect to the county magistrate will pack up and leave. No one can shake it. He ruled as the Lord of Jingnan.

Facing Liu Biao's question, Liu Jing was not flustered. He had done enough "homework" before he came, so he said calmly: "The general is a graceful gentleman with the demeanor of an elder. He is known for his benevolence and righteousness. Sun Jian returned his body, killed Zhang Ji without receiving congratulations, and so on. General... "Yi" said: "He who is helped by heaven is obedient; he who is helped by man is trustworthy." With God's protection, 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 not be drowned by the saliva of Changsha people.There is no way, I can't hide, I can only say some irrelevant and generalized words.

Liu Biao was not very satisfied with Liu Jingyan's answer of Wuwu, and said, "Zhang Changsha's character is stubborn and unruly, and he wants to love alone but can't do it. What can I do?"

Liu Jing replied slowly: ""Book of Rites" says: "If you love and know the evil, hate and know the good, there are few in the world." If you love it and know its shortcomings, and hate it and know its advantages, if the general can do the above Two points, naturally there is no need to worry about it.”

"..." Liu Biao secretly had a headache. Liu Jing never departed from the "Five Classics" and used the words of a sage to persuade him in everything. How could he continue to ask questions?

There was a faint smile on Liu Jingying's handsome face. He went north this time and sat on a boat for more than [-] days. He had nothing to do on weekdays, so he was thinking about how to deal with today's situation. Are you afraid that you won't be able to deal with Liu Biao?

Liu Biao took a deep look at Liu Jing, knowing that there would be no good results if he continued to ask, so he finally gave up asking Jing Nan, Zhang Xian and other sensitive topics, and asked about the general trend of the world instead.

Seeing this, Liu Jing felt a little regretful in his heart, but he had put in a lot of hard work, and only one or two achievements came to an abrupt end, which inevitably made him feel unfinished.But this is not the main purpose of his coming here. His main purpose of coming here is to "show his talents" to Liu Biao, and talking about the general trend of the world is exactly what he wants.

Du attacked Nanshi Changsha because he prevented Fanqin from the same county from showing his talents to Liu Biao, so he was tabooed by Liu Biao.Liu Jing did this, of course, not to change his family, but to use Liu Biao to force Zhang Xian.The more Liu Biao pays attention to him, the more "worried" Zhang Xian will be. In order to keep him, Zhang Xian can only increase his bargaining chips and form a "balance" with Liu Biao.

Liu Jing's preferred bargaining chip is "the head of a county, a hundred-mile marquis", so he must show Liu Biao his "extraordinary" talents, and it is best to let Liu Biao call him a "major talent".

Maocai was called Xiucai in ancient times. In order to avoid the name taboo of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, Xiu was changed to Mao.

The so-called "the county promotes filial piety and the prefecture promotes talents", the two are the most orthodox methods of selecting officials in the Han Dynasty.After being promoted to Xiaolian, he will generally serve as Lang Guan, Juncheng, County Magistrate, and County Magistrate.And Maocai is much simpler and rude, starting directly as the county magistrate and county magistrate.

If Liu Biao called him a talented person, Zhang Xian had no choice but to call him Xiaolian as a counterweight, and also asked the court to worship him as the head of a county. If he didn't do this, why did he keep Liu Jing?

After all, who would leave a county magistrate and continue to be a small official?

For the sake of his own future, Liu Jing talked freely about the world. Although he repeatedly restrained himself to avoid "speech", his words and deeds were still shocking to the people in the hall. Startled."

Liu Xian, Deng Xi, Song Zhong and others were all shocked too. Lai Gong was the only one in the hall, barely calm, because he had heard Liu Jing's talk yesterday, but now it seems that he had a Retained, at most only said four or five points.

When Liu Jing finished speaking, the hall fell into a dead silence.

After a long time, Liu Biao sighed, referring to his left and right: "Is there such a thing as a prophet in the world? Zhongda hasn't reached the weak crown this year, right?" Ghosts and gods, but there are things in words. As Liuhou saw in the old father's letter. 'Could it be that Zhongda also has ghosts and gods to help him?"

Liu Jing was taken aback when he heard the words, and thought: "Is this too much force?" He hurriedly said: "The general praised it absurdly, how dare you compare it with Liu Hou for a mere superficial opinion?"

Deng Xi praised: "Zhong Da need not be too modest, you have the talent of Wang Zuo, staying in Changsha is really a secret investment of the pearl."

He even thought in his heart that Liu Jing was a little inferior in Xiangyang, and perhaps only the court of Xu County was the most suitable for him to show his talents.

Although Liu Xian and Lai Gong were from Lingling County in Jingnan, they also agreed with Deng Xi's words that Liu Jing really should not stay in Changsha, as there was no way for him to fully display his talents there.

Song Zhong couldn't help sighing: "It turns out that Zhongda is a national weapon, but I promised it as a Confucian student. How absurd!"

Liu Biao gradually calmed down. Liu Jing, this is a talent that must be firmly held in his hands. Even if he can't use it for himself, he must not be used by Zhang Xian.Immediately made up his mind, got up and came to Liu Jing, took his hand, and said straight to the point:

"There is a common saying in the selection of scholars in the country: 'If there are talented people who are different, such as Yan Yuan and Ziqi, regardless of age." Zhong Da is the same, but he still serves as the chief secretary and minor official. Zhang Changsha is so unfair! He ignores talents, how can Gu just ignore them? Gu Jin intends to promote Zhong Da as a talented person, what does Zhong Da think?"

Liu Biao's words were very level, and he ridiculed Zhang Xian a lot.

"Thank you, General, for your attention, but the official's wedding is imminent, so I'm afraid it will be too hasty." When the opportunity came, Liu Jing became "reserved". Neither a clear promise nor a clear rejection can be used, so the word "drag" has to be used.

Liu Biao saw that Liu Jing did not sternly refuse, so he felt confident. He himself is the leader of the scholars, and no one knows the psychology of the scholars better than him. Da'an spends the winter at home, and next year, I will be alone to promote Zhongda as a talented person."

　"Book of the Later Han Dynasty Shundi Ji": "Xin Mao, at the beginning, ordered the prefecture and state to promote filial piety...he has talents and extraordinary talents, such as Yan Yuan and Zi Qi, regardless of age.
