Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1017 Xiangyang City

One has no choice of origin, but it is undeniable that a good origin is equal to a good card in troubled times.

For example, Yuan Gonglu and Yuan Benchu.

Putting on the skin of the Yuan family and beckoning, they are corporals who can recruit countless scholars for their own use. In the early stage of the hegemony, their strength is the strongest.

Of course, good cards also need to be able to play in order to win.

The last laugh is the winner.

But it also shows the importance of a good background.

It just so happens that Mujing doesn't have this thing.

The Mu family was originally from a humble family, and this is acceptable, but Mushan turned to rebellion, became a rebel, and fell into a bandit, even a grass bandit. Even if his reputation has been rectified, he will be a dignified minister of the country, and his power will shake the world, but his humble background cannot be changed.

After he died, this background became the shackles on Mujing.

Mujing's family background is not good, his actions are treacherous, and he has a reputation for violence. He is rarely respected by scholars. Therefore, from the establishment of the Minghou Mansion to the present, there are very few talents who take the initiative to seek refuge. Basically, those talents are tossed After countless times, he will be put under the command of the Minghou Mansion.

But there are no talents.

Now under the command of the Minghou Mansion, it has expanded from Yizhou. In addition to the eight counties of Yizhou, there are also Nanyang, Wudu, and Xiangyang, which manage more than a hundred counties and tens of millions of people. It takes a lot of administrative talents to be stable.

So we have to do whatever we can to recruit talents.

This also formed a style of Minghou Mansion.

Emphasis on talent.

In order to get talents, they don't care about means.

Of course, it won't be too harsh.

The bottom line is still there.

Out of respect for talents, the etiquette that should be done should also be sufficient, but it is a little more ruthless and threatening than ordinary people.

You can't get what you ask for, so it's normal to use a little trick when it's appropriate.

Mujing is using it now, it's a way of threatening.

This is also the most common way.

People have things they care about, hold them tight, and don't be afraid that they will be disobedient.

A few old ones have become fine and difficult to deal with.

Even if you take out seven inches, you can't eat it.

But I can't help getting old.

A few young Mu Jing asked himself that he could still be intimidated. These juniors on Lumen Mountain are all young and promising scholars, with passion and ability in their hearts, and most of them are foolish and filial.

Using their filial piety, it is easy to make them surrender.

Mujing's eyes looked at Xu Shu, and he felt that Xu Shu was the boss of these students, so he started to attack Xu Shu: "Brother Yuanzhi, your teachers are already old, and I don't want to bother you too much, but Lu Menshan doesn't have an attitude, and I don't feel relieved, you juniors, shouldn't you share the worries and solve the problems for the master?"

"What does Marquis Ming mean to let us serve in the Marquis of Ming's mansion?" Xu Shu understood in seconds.

"How about it?"

Mu Jing said seductively: "As the so-called learning of civil and martial arts is sold to the emperor's family, my Minghou Mansion can be considered to have a place in the world. I believe this stage will not disappoint you. I, Mu Jing, have always been respectful of talents." It is highly valued, only cares about ability, not about origin, and is willing to open the door for scholars from all over the world!"

"sorry!"

Xu Shu shook his head and said, "Now is the time to study. How can I become an official without the permission of my teacher? I'm sorry!"

Mu Jing took a deep look at Xu Shu, this young man is not bad, he can hold his breath, he is a good seedling with this kind of disposition, but he can't just escape from Wuzhishan like this.

He approached Xu Shu's ear and said in a low voice: "Brother Yuan Zhi, those old fellows of them have a foul and tough temper. I can't accept it, but I can't hold it back. You always make me lose face." , I am a dignified Marquis of the Ming Dynasty, condescending to this, I can't ask the old ones to come out of the mountain, and the younger ones refuse so simply, it is really a bad temper, if I get irritable, what happens, I can't guarantee it! "

"Minghou, it's not because we don't give Minghou face, it's because we don't dare to disobey the master!" Xu Shu clenched his fists.

"Even if the blood on Lumen Mountain is like a river, will you not hesitate?"

"Why should Marquis Ming make things difficult for others!" Xu Shu became more and more gloomy.

"It is certain that what is difficult for the strong is!"

Mu Jing patted him on the shoulder and said: "Lumen Mountain must have a standpoint. Whose attitude is not important, who can represent the standpoint of Lumen Mountain is the most important thing. There is a saying in Buddhism, if I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell Hell, if you want to keep one side safe, you have to learn to sacrifice!"

"Am I so important?" Xu Shu asked in a low voice.

"In my heart, you, Xu Yuanzhi, still have the ability to represent Lumen Mountain. I am optimistic about you!"

"If I don't follow, are you really so cruel!"

"Then you have to take a gamble!"

The corners of Mujing's mouth raised slightly, and his smile was sinister: "Brother Yuanzhi, if I were you, I should think about it carefully, even if my Minghou Mansion is a sea of ​​swords and flames, for the sake of all the teachers, and for the sake of so many talented students in Lumen Mountain, you As a senior brother, just sacrifice yourself!"

As he said that, he walked over and left a sentence: "By the way, I really have a bad temper, so I'm not very patient. Seeing that I hit it off with you, I'll give you a few days to think about it. Before leaving Xiangyang, if there is no result, don’t blame me for being cruel. It’s hard to say what happened to Lumen Mountain. This Xiangyang, the law and order is not very good. I’ve said it many times, and there are bandits. It really hurts me..."

Seeing the back of Mu Jing walking down the mountain, Xu Shu felt a chill all over his body, and his robe was even drenched with cold sweat.

"Yuanzhi, what are you talking about?"

"Brother Yuanzhi, what did Marquis Ming tell you?"

A group of students from Lumen Mountain came up after Mu Jing left, and asked Xu Shu in unison.

Xu Shu came back to his senses and looked at each face.

He didn't know whether Mujing was trying to scare him, or if he could really do such a thing. He really didn't dare to bet that if these classmates were all turned into bones because of one of his decisions, then he would be punished for his crimes. .

But he was not willing to surrender like this.

A scholar has the character of a scholar, and he is unwilling to stoop to serve a thief.

………………

Mu Jing had just walked out of Lumen Mountain, only to see Zhang Huo leading hundreds of horsemen, appearing at the foot of the mountain in a hurry.

The iron hooves of hundreds of riders can shake the entire Lumen Mountain.

"How is this going?"

"Why are there so many cavalry at the foot of the mountain?"

"Could it be that Marquis Ming really wants to use force at Lumen Mountain?"

The teachers and students on Lumen Mountain were suddenly worried. They were just studying in Lumen Mountain. How could there be so many of them who would regard death as home? Most of the students were afraid of death, and the scene seemed a little flustered.

"Meet the lord!"

Zhang Huo got off his horse and bowed his hands in salute.

"No need to be polite!"

Mu Jing got on his horse and said, "Since you're here, let's go back to the city. This place of study is not suitable for us warriors!"

drive drive drive! ! ! !

He patted the horse, and the horse's hoof kicked up the wind and sand all over the sky, and galloped away.

"Follow!"

"Protect the lord!"

The masters of Shenweiying and Six Doors rode their horses to follow.

…………

When he came to Xiangyang City again, Mu Jing was in a very happy mood, perhaps because he had suppressed the three old guys on Lumen Mountain just now, so he was particularly happy: "This city hasn't changed at all, it seems to be more lively! "

"My lord, I have set up a courtyard in the city!" Zhang Huo said, "Nearby is the school ground where I train six-door arresters. There is an absolute force, so there is no need to worry about safety!"

"Stay at the station!"

"why?"

"Stay Road!"

Mu Jing said: "We have to think about the post, no matter what time it is, we must live in the post, and set an example, so that people can do this thing more attentively!"

Post road represents traffic.

Only when the transportation is developed can the place develop.

Mujing has always paid attention to the development of post roads. In recent years, there have been countless bridge and road repair projects in the Minghou Mansion, but for the huge Yizhou and Yizhou with rugged roads, it is still a drop in the bucket. The current Yizhou is still not as good as the Central Plains on the post road. everywhere.

Therefore, no matter where Mu Jing went, he set an example and showed the local officials his attitude towards the development of the post road, so that they could be effective.

"Yes!"

Zhang Huo took the order and took Mu Jing to the post station in Xiangyang.
