Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

Chapter 193 Let’s see what I do?
treasure?

Li Ji felt heavy trust in Liu Bei's praise.

The king and his ministers know each other!

"My lord, I may not be talented, but I will certainly live up to my lord's reputation as a treasure and make everyone in the world envy my lord!" Li Ji replied.

In this regard, Liu Bei said with some pride. "Hahaha, no need to worry about it in the future. Now I am afraid that countless people are envious of me for having Zikun by my side."

Li Ji smiled dumbly when he heard this, but there was no hint of pride.

Especially Gan Ning's reaction made Li Ji understand that his reputation was far from reaching every corner of the Han Dynasty.

Among the original trajectories were Zhao Zilong, who entered and exited Changbanpo seven times, and Zhang Yide, who broke the Dangyang Bridge. In the eyes of Lingling General Xing Daorong, didn't he regard them as local chickens and dogs?

Moreover, the ever-victorious general Zhao Zilong has been fighting all his life. When he was nearly seventy years old, he was almost called an old man by Jiang Wei.

This shows how difficult it is to transmit information in this era.

Li Ji couldn't help but laugh a little when he heard this, but he also understood Liu Bei's concerns.

"Don't worry, Zikun. News has come back from the Jinyi Department ahead of time. Zhang Zhongjing is already on his way to Wu County, but..."

Liu Bei asked slightly puzzled.

Liu Bei trusted Li Ji.

Although the number of refugees in the refugee camps has dropped sharply now, and those staying in the camps are basically old, weak, women and children, considering that the ferry is still transporting refugees in a steady stream.

"What happened?" Li Ji asked.

Zhang Ji was born in a Nanyang family. Since he had seen a lot of officialdom darkness and political corruption since he was a child, Zhang Ji did not pursue an official career like most of the family members. Instead, he had the desire to study medicine and save the people. Therefore, since he was a child, Zhang Ji Then he followed the famous doctor Zhang Bozu to learn medical skills.

Therefore, Li Ji feels that his current reputation is basically just wandering among the scholars, and he may still be a little far away from being truly famous among the princes.

Liu Bei was slightly startled, then his eyes subconsciously fell on Li Ji's face, and then he understood what Li Ji meant.

But when Li Ji mentioned this issue again, Liu Bei suddenly thought of something and said.

After all, doctors matter a lot. If all kinds of patients in Wu County are entrusted to a quack doctor, what is the difference between that and disregarding human life?
However, Li Ji did not know much about the three miracle doctors of the late Han Dynasty: Zhang Ji, Hua Tuo, and Dong Feng, except that Dong Feng's reputation was relatively unknown. Li Ji still remembered a thing or two about the deeds of Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo.

Regarding Liu Bei's ability as a "big Han succubus" and witnessing the refugees' protection of Liu Bei with his own eyes, Li Ji was not worried about any riots. He was only worried about the harsh environment in the refugee camps. Will any diseases breed?

Before Liu Bei left, Li Ji did not forget to urge Liu Bei to pay attention to the hygiene issues in the refugee camps.

Therefore, Zhang Ji at this moment may appear to be just a filial and honest man in his late thirties with a low reputation, but in fact he is a well-known and experienced doctor who has been studying medicine for more than 20 years.

Normally speaking, there are probably many apprentices at Zhang Ji's age who can only help with the medicine.

At the city gate of Wu County, Liu Bei didn't take any trouble listening to Li Ji's repeated instructions. What he felt was Li Ji's deep concern.

After this rare unhurried meal with Liu Bei, Liu Bei did not stay longer in Wu County. After bidding farewell to Zhang Fei in a hurry, Liu Bei quickly returned to the refugee camp.

In order to avoid any accidents and to win over the people, Liu Bei naturally needed to return to the refugee camp to take charge.

"Lord, what do you think of me?"

"Is Zhang Zhongjing really as extraordinary in medical skills as Zikun said?"

However, as Jinyisi summarized Zhang Ji's information in front of Liu Bei, Liu Bei discovered that Zhang Ji was just a young man under thirty, which was completely inconsistent with Liu Bei's subconscious image of a doctor with superb medical skills.

Li Ji is not yet twenty, so what is his ability?
"It's better to be prepared. You shouldn't judge your ability based on your age."

Liu Bei said quickly. "When Zhang Zhongjing arrives in Wu County, Bei will definitely entertain him well and persuade Zhang Zhongjing to stay in Wu County."

Li Ji nodded and reminded.

"My lord, Zhang Zhongjing is a son of a noble family and is dedicated to studying medicine. This shows his devotion to medicine and his kindness to patients."

"If my lord sees Zhang Zhongjing then, he should not be tempted by wealth and honor, but should persuade him with benevolence and virtue, and state that Wu County intends to establish a medical school similar to the 'Rende Academy', and ask Zhang Zhongjing to be the director of the medical school to promote his medical skills. Cure and save the world.”

Liu Bei nodded, and after listening to Li Ji's repeated explanations, he completely understood how much Li Ji valued Zhang Zhongjing.

Immediately, Liu Bei also explained that Li Ji should take care of his health while staying in Wu County and not overwork himself, and then returned to the refugee camp under Xiahou Bo's protection. After Liu Bei left, Li Ji once again devoted himself to busy official duties.

Perhaps many trivial matters can be thrown to Gu Yong, who almost doubles his experience gain every day, but there are more things that require Li Ji's personal handling.

Work-for-relief, developing fisheries, and preparing to receive envoys from Yangzhou counties...

Business matters occupied almost all of Li Ji's time. The only time he had to relax was to exchange letters with Cai Zhaoji every now and then.

What Li Ji didn't expect was that Cai Zhaoji's level in painting was also amazing.

After Cai Zhaoji received the sketch, when Li Ji received the reply again, a painting was also attached.

What is depicted in it is the scene of Li Ji listening to Cai Zhaoji with his back to Cai Zhaoji in the Cai Mansion. It is lifelike, and the beautiful artistic conception conveyed through superb painting skills is a level that even Li Ji cannot catch up with. .

However, Li Ji did not expect that Cai Zhaoji would remember this scene so deeply in his heart, otherwise it would be impossible to paint such a painting based on memory alone.

This made Li Ji couldn't help feeling that Cai Zhaoji was also a "double-standard girl". She clearly asked him to turn his back to her and not look at her, but she saw it carefully and remembered it so clearly.

At the same time, this also made Li Ji realize that he, a failed art student, would never be able to beat Cai Zhaoji when it came to art compared with the talented Cai Zhaoji.

However, Cai Zhaoji was quite interested in Li Ji's novel sketching and painting, and there were many requests for advice in her letters.

In this way, the letter exchanges between Li Ji and Cai Zhaoji have a lot of common topics.

However, this was a hardship for Li Shu and Li Qin, who often passed letters between them. They had no idea why Mr. Zikun and Miss Zhaoji were both in Wu County, but they did not come to see each other, but kept sending letters back and forth.

This makes Li Shu and Li Qin, who are thinking about when they can see Li Ji again, secretly very distressed, and even doubt whether they have become a part of Mr. Zikun and Miss Zhaoji's play.

……

At the same time, Qingzhou Jinan Kingdom.

The great disaster in the Central Plains also had a great impact on Jinan.

Especially when Cao Cao, as the Prime Minister of Jinan, first took office, he continued his style of setting up five-color sticks as a captain in the north of Luoyang, almost vigorously rectifying the administration of officials.

In less than half a year, Cao Cao directly eliminated seven out of ten officials, large and small, who were originally corrupt in Jinan's domestic officialdom and had all kinds of corruption and perversion of the law.

However, before Cao Cao could gradually promote his cronies, suppress and win over local aristocratic families, he began to slowly gather the military and political power of the entire Jinan Kingdom.

The sudden outbreak of the Central Plains disaster almost caught Cao Cao off guard.

Not only were some counties in Jinan Kingdom affected by drought and plague, but what was even more terrible was that Cao Cao had just dismissed a large number of officials and had quite tense relations with local aristocratic families.

However, in addition to the drought in Jinan and the continuous influx of refugees from the surrounding area, a large number of remaining Yellow Turban remnants in Qingzhou are plundering and foraging in order to survive, further exacerbating the chaos.

At the same time, Jinan's government almost came to a standstill. A large number of aristocratic families took the opportunity to add insult to injury, hoping to seize the opportunity to regain the right to speak within Jinan from the new Jinan Prime Minister Cao Cao.

Therefore, since the Great Disaster broke out in the Central Plains, Cao Cao has been almost exhausted and exhausted, trying his best to maintain the internal stability of Jinan.

At this moment, when Cao Cao received a letter that Cai Zhaoji was about to marry Li Ji, the wedding would be held soon, and Cao Cao was invited to attend the ceremony.

Cao Cao, who was already looking haggard and exhausted due to various internal problems in Jinan Kingdom, had a complex look on his face. He couldn't help but slapped the bamboo slips hard and said.

"Then does Liu Da'er really have a strong destiny? All good things have happened to him!"

This complicated and somewhat envious speech made Xia Houyuan, who was standing next to Cao Cao, afraid to say anything.

Since his eldest brother Cao Cao took office as the Prime Minister of Jinan, Xia Houyuan knew that his eldest brother had always paid attention to what was going on in Wu County.

First, 70% of the aristocratic families in Wu County were wiped out by local bandits, and then Liu Bei backhandedly destroyed the rebellion started by Yan Baihu, who called himself the "King of Jiangdong Wu", and easily brought the entire Wu County under his control. , and seemed to have received a huge amount of money and food.

The news that Wu Jun was recruiting refugees almost without hesitation and Liu Bei's reputation for benevolence even reached the ears of Xia Houyuan who was far away in Jinan.

The eldest brother always sighed secretly every time he heard news about Wu Jun. He quickly made up his mind to solve the internal administrative problems in Jinan at once and return the sea, river and river to Jinan. He would definitely defeat Wu Jun.

Unexpectedly, the big brother here used a trick to wipe out all the corrupt officials of Jinan Kingdom in a reasonable and legal manner at one time. Just when he was about to show off his talents, natural and man-made disasters came one after another.

What even Xia Houyuan found outrageous was that the imperial court had no plans to provide disaster relief and rescue the people. It just let the various states and counties take care of themselves.
