Chapter 446
Wang Can recommended more than [-] people to Liu Jing in one go. Of course, the northern talents he knew were not limited to those mentioned above. Most of the people he recommended this time were young scholars who had not yet become official.

Those who have already left Jingzhou, such as Anding Lianghu, Beidi Fu Xun, Henan Du Kui, etc., do not need to be recommended by Wang Can. After Liu Jing enters Xiangyang, they will naturally transfer to Liu Jing's command.

Elderly Confucian scholars and celebrities, such as Yingchuan Handanchun, Chen Guoyingrong, Runan Heqia, etc., are also recommended in vain, and their probability of becoming an official is almost zero.

Wang Can's selections were mainly scholars from Guanzhong, Yan, Yu and other places. He was from Jingzhou. He only recommended a few talents from Nanyang.

It's not that Wang Can looked down on Miannan scholars. Liu Jing himself traveled to Xiangyang to study when he was young, and his important ministers Zhuge Liang, Pan Jun, Xu Shu, etc. also lived in Xiangyang for many years.There are also scholars from Miannan such as Pang Tong and Xiang Lang under his command. Liu Jing must know the talents of Miannan very well, so Wang Can didn't mention it.

After Liu Jing heard this, he was deeply moved. Of the twenty or so people recommended by Wang Can, there were not a few who were famous in history, and even those who were unknown in history books were all rare talents.

Liu Jing held his hands and sighed: "This generation is also a talented person at home. Because of the turmoil in the north, they have avoided living in Chu. It is truly beyond what a state can have. Liu Jingzhou is an elder, a lover of music, and Chinese scholar-bureaucrats, but there are people who come to vote, and they are all comforted All the relief funds are fully funded, but they don’t know how to use them, so it’s really puzzling to give up the basics.”

Wang Can sneered and said: "There are things in the world. As a clan, Liu Biao doesn't want to help the country. He sits in Baojiang and Han and enjoys traveling freely. It can't be used, and it can't be accepted after hearing good things, so most of the strange people from all over the world live in seclusion."

Wang Can called Liu Biao by his first name, and it could be seen that he really had deep resentment towards Liu Biao.

Wang can said again: "the general is now in Jingzhou. Before he entered Xiangyang, he gave Can Dong Cao Yu, asked for talents, and was thirsty for talents. He was similar to Gao and the world. Liu Biao couldn't match him."

Liu Jing laughed loudly when he heard the words, and chatted with Wang Can until the middle of the night before falling asleep on the couch.

Liqiu is about [-] miles away from Xiangyang, and the army is in a hurry, and it can be reached in one day. In the early morning of the next day, Liu Jing led his army northward and marched towards Xiangyang.

On the way, Liu Jing suddenly received the news of Liu Bei's absconding, and immediately flew into a rage. Although he hadn't figured out what to do with Liu Bei, his escape was undoubtedly the worst outcome.

No one knows Liu Bei better than him. He has spent half his life, but he never changed his ambition. Three points in the world.

When Liu Jing learned that Liu Bei fled to the west of Xiangyang, he couldn't help being startled, and after a little thought, he guessed that Liu Bei was planning to go to Bashu through Fangling, Shangyong and other places in all likelihood.

Liu Jing's future strategy is to join forces with Liu Zhang in the west and attack Sun Quan in the east. If Liu Bei enters Bashu, his plan may become complicated.

Moreover, Liu Zhang's character is cowardly, no matter who is Liu Bei's opponent, he is afraid that he will be eaten to the bone within a few years.

Liu Jing was very anxious for a while, and urgently ordered Cai Sheng, Liu Liang, Huang Zhong and other generals to lead Qingqi in pursuit, and they must not be allowed to enter Shu.

Watching Cai Sheng and others cross the Mianshui River and leave without dust, Liu Jing frowned and was in a very bad mood. He didn't get better until he arrived in Xiangyang.

In order to show their submission, Xiangyang opened all the gates to serve as Zhonglang, famous scholars Han Song and Dong Caoyu from Nanyang, and Fu Xun, a famous scholar from the north, on behalf of Liu Cong, led the officials and people of Xiangyang out of the city for several miles to meet them.

The reason why Liu Cong didn't go out of the city to meet him was because he was attending the funeral for his father Liu Biao. If he went out to meet Liu Jing in a naked body, Liu Jing's reputation would be completely ruined. Even if Liu Cong wanted to, Liu Jing would never agree.

Liu Cong asked Han Song and Fu Xun to go out to meet Liu Jing on his behalf. Naturally, there was a reason. The two had a high status in Jingzhou and were well-known.

Han Song, the "Look of the Chu Kingdom", is a close friend of Liu Jing's teacher Song Zhongnai. When Liu Jing came to Xiangyang, he worshiped him as a junior.

Seeing the other party bowing down to him now, Liu Jing hurriedly strode forward, helped him up, and said repeatedly: "Han Jun, don't be too polite."

Han Song took advantage of the opportunity to get up, looking at the majestic and majestic Liu Jing, Han Song couldn't help but feel a little complicated.

He is from Nanyang. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Zhongping, Nanyang has suffered from wars, and Han Song has suffered greatly.After Cao Cao was born, he greeted the emperor to beg for disobedience, purified the Central Plains, and shocked the universe. He concluded that Cao Cao was the savior of the world, and often advised Liu Biao to stay away from Yuan Shao and return to the country.

It's a pity that Liu Biao didn't listen. A few months ago, Liu Jing and Sun Quan joined forces to attack.

Cao Cao knew early on that his heart admired the imperial court, and he was very close to him, so Han Song completely returned his heart.

For Liu Jing, a good friend and disciple, a hero in the state, Han Song admired him a lot, but this appreciation was insignificant in the face of the country's righteousness. Compared with Liu Jing, he would rather see Jingzhou fall into Cao Cao's hands.

It's a pity that Cao Cao's primary target at the moment is the Yuan family in Hebei, and he has no time to look south for the time being.

Han Song secretly sighed: "Liu Jingying is a talented person, and he has always had the ambition to whip the world. It is not a blessing for the country to win Jingzhou..."

Liu Jing didn't know what was going on in Han Song's mind, so he talked about the past with him, and then talked with Fu Xun, who was majestic and suave.

Fu Xun was born in the rich family of Fu in the north. He is a descendant of Fu Jiezi. The famous minister Fu Xie is exactly his elder brother.At that time, Han Sui and others raised troops in Liangzhou and invaded Sanfu. The country was unbearably disturbed. Situ Cui Lie proposed to abandon Liangzhou. Fu Xie shouted in court: "Behead Situ, the world will be safe!"

Although Fu Xun is not as famous as his elder brother Fu Xie, he is also well-known. He was requisitioned by the Three Dukes and entered the court as Shangshulang. After the world was in chaos, he abandoned his official position and left. For Dong Cao.

Fu Xun once commented that Pang Tong was a "half hero". In history, Pang Tong joined Liu Bei's command and his ambitions were stretched.The career was not completed, and he died in his prime. The evaluation of "half hero" can be said to be accurate.

At present, all Jingzhou troops have withdrawn from Xiangyang and surrendered to Liu Zong. Liu Jing ordered Gan Ning, Ma Zhou and others to lead troops into the city to take over the city defense, and then entered Xiangyang accompanied by Han Song, Fu Xun and other Jingzhou officials.

"Is Liu Shijun's coffin in the state?" On the way to the state, Liu Jing asked Han Song and Fu Xun.

Han Song replied: "The envoy's coffin was originally placed in the state office. Liu Zhongyu has moved the envoy's coffin to Befu in the city to avoid the general."

Liu Jing couldn't help his complexion changed drastically, and said: "Didn't Liu Zhongyu make me unjust by doing this? Come on, take me to Beppu as soon as possible, and pay homage to Mr. Liu Shijun."
