Han Shizu

Chapter 1315 Opportunity
As the capital of the Liao Kingdom, Tokyo is second only to Shangjing in terms of political status, and has a profound historical heritage. Liaoyang City is generally good. The city is not small, at least in the Northeast region, and it is a leading city.

There is a palace in the city, which used to be the residence of the Liao emperors during their daily tours. When Yelujing was still in power, he visited Liaoyang frequently, and under the repairs of the local government, it became more and more perfect.

Of course, it is far inferior to the majestic palaces of the Han Dynasty, and even inferior to some of the palaces left over from history that Emperor Liu never visited.However, no matter how simple and shabby it is, it is also a manifestation of the imperial authority.

Just like when he went to Jinling to work as a soldier, Liu Yang still set up his Grand Marshal's Mansion in the former Liaodong Left-behind Mansion, even without Li Fang's side to remind him, and did not move to the cleaned palace, without any overstepping.

In the commander's mansion, Liu Yang continued his continuous work after a simple meal since Mao, and today he was busy receiving the first batch of officials who aided Liao.Before that, he had waited for almost [-] days. This was the very efficient selection of personnel on Yanshan Road, and they were dispatched to Liaodong.

For the nine state and county officials who have just arrived, Liu Yang is looking forward to it and attaches great importance to it. Only when these people are in place, will the appeasement of Liaodong Civil Affairs be on the right track.

Therefore, Liu Yang personally interviewed these officials from Yanshan Road, inspected and chatted one by one, and then made proper arrangements based on their past resumes and political achievements.

It has to be said that in terms of approach and style, Liu Yang has always followed the example of Emperor Liu, and the arrangement of many things has more or less the shadow of Emperor Liu. After all, he is the prince cultivated by Emperor Liu.

In the hall, a middle-aged official took the appointment document from the prince gratefully and left.As for Liu Yang, he took a pen and marked Guidezhou on a map of Liaodong military and political officials, and wrote a name.

He got up, stretched his muscles and bones, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Murong Defeng who was standing by, "Is there still one person missing?"

"Exactly!" Murong Defeng reported: "Wei Wangji of Shicheng County, 27 years old, any year!"

Hearing this, Liu Yang's expression changed: "At this age, he has become a county magistrate, so he is considered young!"

Murong Defeng nodded: "Ten years ago, it was normal, but now, it is extraordinary. There is no shortage of officials in the big man. It is really rare to be a county-level order officer before 30 years old!"

"What's the matter with this Wang Ji? Is it a talent, a special contribution, or a strong background?" Liu Yang asked with a little curiosity on his face.

Murong Defeng is doing a good job as the secretary now, he has fully understood the situation, and replied: "This person was born in Youyan, a powerful local, two generations ago, and three generations of troubled times, he is famous for his military achievements.

His father, Wang Lin, was a general of the Liao Kingdom in his early years. During the Northern Expedition of Qianyou, the Duke of Ma Ji (Ma Quanyi) led the army to the east.Later, he became a subordinate of Ji Guogong, and His Majesty heard of his righteous deeds, greatly praised him, and appointed him to the state affairs committee.Today, he has been promoted to Deputy Envoy of Yanshan Transit.

Wang Jichu joined the army and served in the Shimen Army. Later, he was transferred to a local official. A year ago, he was replaced as a Shicheng county lieutenant. This time, he selected officials to enrich Liaodong.

Hearing Murong Defeng's introduction, Liu Yang knew it in his mind, and sighed softly: "No wonder, what kind of talent is this person?"

Murong Defeng cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty has given instructions, this time to aid the Liao officials, we need to select officials, mediocre talents may be as difficult as the envoy of Chu said. However, the details need to be examined by His Highness's insightful eyes!"

Hearing this, Liu Yang showed a little smile and said: "Most of the officials who have just met are those who have reached the end of their qualifications and have not been promoted. He, the Shicheng county lieutenant, has only been in office for one year, and he is also on the list of transfers. Liaodong Xinxia, ​​the war is not over, and he came to the east to take up his post, it is unpredictable! If you can take the initiative to seek advancement, you may be an official in charge!"

Murong Defeng nodded and replied: "These powerful families who made their fortunes in humble beginnings are indeed full of courage and aggressiveness. Back then, Wang Lin was able to see the opportunity to revolt and rise to the top, which shows his courage and foresight. I am afraid that Wang Ji's matter this time also has the influence of his father." Promote. Liaodong is in decline, and the military and government are still uncertain. Although there are risks, it is a place to use force. As long as you make achievements, it will be of great benefit to your future career."

Slightly nodding his head, Liu Yang turned his head to look at Murong Defeng, turned his eyes around him, and said with a light smile, "Rixin, you know a lot about these things!"

When asked, Murong Defeng cupped his hands and replied: "When I was in the East Palace, I had some exchanges with some local officials who came to Beijing, so I learned something!"

"Your Highness, it's time for lunch!" While the two were talking, Ma Huaiyu entered the hall with a meal.

Smelling the aroma of the food, Liu Yang twitched his index finger. Looking at Ma Huaiyu's immature but serious face, Liu Yang said gently, "Huaiyu, let you, the court's Duke, serve me tea, water and food. But I have wronged you!"

"Your Highness, don't make fun of me!" Ma Huaiyu was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a simple smile.

As the son of Ma Quanyi, he was raised in the palace. As he grew older, he became more sensible and knew more about the emperor's kindness to his family.Emperor Liu treated him like a son, and Ma Huaiyu was arranged to follow Liu Yang, but he always regarded him as a brother in his heart.

"Let's have dinner together!" Liu Yang greeted Murong Defeng, and then told Ma Huaiyu: "Serve some more food and wine, add a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and call Wang Ji. He is the one who has been waiting to see you for so long. Time, I will return a meal!"

"Your Highness is so courteous and virtuous, this Wang Ji must be grateful!" Murong Defeng complimented.

Liu Yang smiled and didn't care.

Soon, Wei Wangji from Shicheng County came.Just as Liu Yangyu Murong Defeng guessed, his trip to Liao Dynasty was the operation of his father Wang Lin, and the matter was rushed and he was not prepared to react at all.

When the transfer order was issued, he was even more dazed. He only received a letter from his father and didn't have time to go to Youzhou to listen to some teachings, so he rushed out of customs.

With a lot of thoughts, he rushed on the road for several days. During this journey, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart. After arriving in Liaoyang, his mentality was almost adjusted, and he began to understand his father's intentions with his heart.

But when he arrived in Liaoyang, he only had time to rest for one night, and he didn't have time to socialize with those officials who were also transferred.Everything seemed so rushed.

However, he discovered that among the officials dispatched to Liaodong, although he had the lowest position, he was the youngest.Regardless of previous experience, in Liaodong, everyone belongs to the same group of people and is on the same starting line.
What's more gratifying is that His Highness the Crown Prince actually wants to personally meet and assess one by one to arrange official positions. This is certainly a kind of pressure, but if there is no trip to Liaodong, these local officials may never have the possibility of being trained by His Highness the Crown Prince.

What is an opportunity, this is an opportunity.

Of course, what surprised Wang Ji even more was that among the nine officials, he was the only one lucky enough to be invited by the crown prince to have a meal together.What an honor it is, and also to reconnect with the benefactor of their royal family, the son of Quan Yi, the stallion of Ji Kingdom.
For Wang Ji, the trip to Liaoyang seemed to be a start that couldn't be better.After some conversation and investigation, after Wang Ji resigned and left, and walked out of the Generalissimo's Mansion, he realized it belatedly, feeling unreal.

At the same time, I tried my best to recall how I behaved in front of His Highness the Crown Prince, and whether I had made any omissions in my response, but the more I thought about it, the more confused I felt, the more guilty I felt.

In the seat, he was cramped all the time, he didn't dare to look directly at the prince, and he couldn't even remember the face of the prince, let alone read his words.

After staying in front of the yamen for a while, to calm down his anxious and excited mood, Wang Ji took out a letter, which was the appointment letter from the crown prince, and the seal of the Generalissimo of the Northern Expedition was still very bright on it, the county magistrate of Shanhe.Shanhe County belongs to Liaosui Prefecture, in the north and east of Liaodong, and it is also the place under the most far-reaching actual control of the Han army. It is an important crossing into the Horqin Grassland.

Respectfully putting away the book, and carefully putting it in his arms, Wang Ji regained his youthful and heroic spirit, inexplicably filled with pride in his heart, and secretly made up his mind that he must do something in Liaodong.
