I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 94

Liu Jian has moved.

The members of Yuan's family were very fast in handling things, and soon they built a big house not far from Yuan Ji's house.

I don't know if this house originally belonged to the Yuan family, or if it was 'transformed' into the Yuan family by some means.

Anyway, no matter what, this house now belongs to Liu Jian.

The house that Yuan Ji arranged for Liu Jian was very large. Li Damu, Yu Ze and his followers lived in together, and there were enough rooms.

At the same time, according to Yuan Ji's suggestion, Liu Jian and Zheng Ci also selected some innocent maidservants and servants from the official slaves of the government office to enter the mansion as servants to take care of Zheng Ci's daily life.

On the day of moving, Liu Jian received many gifts from people he didn't know before—there were officials in Luoyang City, well-known scholars in the city, some local nobles, and Qingliu celebrities.

If it were changed to the original, if he, a boy from the border county, wanted to make friends with these people, it would be something that he didn't even have to think about.

But the situation is different now, whether it is status, official position, or 'birth', even if it is Confucianism inheritance family, he is completely different from before, completely reborn.

Especially for this release of the ban on the party, although he was not the person who directly advised him, there were already widely rumors among the people that this matter must be due to the contribution of "Liu Huangdi, the patriarch of the Han Dynasty".

As for what evidence?
Zhang Rang scolded Liu Jian at the gate of the West Garden, which is the best proof!

For a while, Liu Jian's reputation as a hero spread throughout Luozhong and Sili again.

"Brother, do you know who is the one who assisted An Guoting Hou to succeed?"

"But that's riding for the patriarch Liu Yue?"

"exactly!"

"It is said that Zhang Rang scolded this person in front of Xiyuan Palace!"

"Hey! Anyone who can win the eunuch's hatred must be a member of my generation!"

"He is really good at literature and martial arts, he is a hero of the world!"

"He is also Zheng Jingshen's son-in-law. In the future, Zheng Xue will be the successor, and he will inevitably have his name."

"..."

With such rumors, there were naturally many nobles who wanted to befriend Liu Jian.

……

……

In the new mansion, Liu Jian looked at the gifts piled up all over the courtyard, rubbed his temples, and smiled helplessly.

"When I first entered Beijing, no one cared about me. Now that time has passed, I have become a celebrity in the eyes of Luoyang nobles."

Li Damu asked: "Young Master, do you want to count the things and return them all?"

"Crazy? Don't you want the things delivered to your door?"

Li Damu was quite surprised when he heard the words: "I heard that when the young master got married in Zhuo County in the past, the young gentleman withdrew all the important gifts when he entered the door, why are they all accepted now...?"

"When I was newly married, the people who gave gifts were all for my father-in-law's face. My father-in-law naturally has the right to return them, but now the gifts are all for my face. My style of doing things is not the same as that of my father-in-law. of."

After that, Liu Jian patted Li Damu's shoulder, and said: "We still have to count carefully, remember who gave how many gifts, buy food and drink, hire singers, and I will arrange a banquet in the mansion as a thank you. "

"Here!"

Zheng Xuan was in the academic world, and Liu Jian was in the officialdom. Different places have different ways of dealing with things.

Those in the academic world can be aloof, but others don't need to give gifts.

It's not good to be in the officialdom, especially in the era when Liu Hong was in power, the officialdom was pretending to be high-ranking, and it was easy to be excluded and abandoned.

Now that Liu Jian has reached this level, it's time to make friends with some upper-class figures.

Whether it is old or new, the best way for the upper class to make friends with each other is to have a banquet, and move to a new home by yourself. After receiving the gifts, you should set up a banquet and entertain the guests as a thank you.

……

After arranging the family affairs properly, Liu Jian went to visit Lu Zhi, hoping that the teacher would fulfill his promise and take him to Shangshutai to check the roster of the county's military officials.

Therefore, the two masters and apprentices went to the selection department together in the early morning of the second day, looking through the list of local county and state military officials.

Of course, in addition to the county soldiers, Liu Jian also hopes to look through the roster of local county officials and combine the two to screen, and perhaps find more suitable talents.

During the inspection period, Lu Zhi, who was a minister, was always by Liu Jian's side.

After all, it was he who used his face and connections, and Liu Jian had the opportunity to check in the election department for a day, so he had to keep an eye on Liu Jian in person. Liu Jian turned around.

In addition, there are rules and regulations for the transfer of people from the locality up. It is not that Liu Jian can make random transfers based on whoever's name sounds good. That is the emperor's power, and he does not have it.

Or, to put it more harshly, the emperor's power in this regard was also limited to some extent.

Lu Zhi looked at Liu Jian looking through the rosters of those people like Fan Tianshu, and sighed: "Don't worry about the local county officials with more than [-] shi, they are all clearly recorded in the Shangshutai. The election department has a clear appointment and transfer order, and it is directly under Luoyang. If you want to transfer officials directly appointed by Shangshutai to your military camp, how can I arrange this with you? It won't work!"

Liu Jian pointed to a name on a bamboo slip with his index finger, and asked, "Then according to what the teacher said, this person is not good enough?"

Lu Zhi narrowed his eyes: "Xiapi County Prime Minister...Sun Jian?"

"Yes."

Lu Zhi stroked his beard, and said slowly: "First of all, you have to know that the Ling, Wei, and Cheng in a county are not recruited by the local prefects, but after the imperial court unifies and checks the integrity, or there are meritorious persons. If the appointment is clearly specified in the charter, these officials need to accept the annual evaluation by the imperial court, and they will be promoted according to the excellent and good results of the evaluation, and the term of office is three years."
"You just want to move a [-]-year-old county magistrate who is on file at the Shangshutai to serve in your army, so how should he be evaluated this year? Who will take over for his three-year term?"

Liu Jian said with a smile: "There are so many Langguans waiting for election in Beijing. If there is a vacant position, it is enough to send one down. Your Majesty can still collect a sum of money for repairing the palace..."

"Rebel!"

Lu Zhi was so angry that he wanted to give him a shot: "Is it true that the officials of the three bureaus are all your own servants? If you say let go of one, let go of one? Who do you think you are!"

Liu Jian sighed helplessly, and said, "So, this county magistrate Sun must not be able to join my Yueqi camp?"

Lu Zhi stroked his beard and said, "I know the name of Sun Jian. This man started his career with military merits, and after he made meritorious service, he was honored by Zang Min as an official in the local area. I think there is a relationship between him and Zang Min. It has something to do with it, now that Zang Min has been reactivated by His Majesty, you don't want to use the name of a transfer to rob other people's old officials... and if there is no war in your Yueqi camp, there is really no reason to recruit this person."

When Liu Jian heard the words, he suddenly said, "What if there is a war?"

"If there is a war, then there will be a war."

Liu Jian thought to himself: Well, it seems that some things are indeed not as simple as he thought.

After the military merits and the inspectors' orders, chiefs, and prime ministers, there is really no way to transfer them. They were originally civil servants and administrative staff. You have to cross the border and send them to the army, which is neither justified nor handled.

There are some things that can't be done with a pat on the head.

It's a pity for the Jiangdong Tigers.

Liu Jian bowed his head again and continued to read the bamboo slips.

This time, he didn't mess around.

He mainly focused on the military barracks in the border county, not those with regular official status.

These people are the ones he should really pay attention to.

Moreover, he decided to stroke from north to south.

After all, Liu Jian's hometown is in Youzhou, and the fellow in the north is the best choice for him.

After a while...

"These two people, the teacher can help me see if it is feasible?"

Liu Jian placed two bamboo slips in front of Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi looked sideways.

"You Beiping Gongcao Shi Chengpu..."

"Xu Rong, a thousand-member Lieutenant of the Liaodong vassal state..."

"Um……"

Lu Zhi stroked his beard and began to meditate carefully.
