When Ji Han and his men traveled to the Three Kingdoms crew

Chapter 327 Promotion
Jingzhou, Xiangyang, and Yuliangzhou.

As the sun was about to set, the surface of the lake was rippling with golden light.

A young man with extraordinary conversation and simple clothes walked across the muddy land, a boatman rowed a boat full of resolute men, and a nobleman in a carriage passed by at lightning speed, scaring the dogs frolicking at the entrance of the village and making them run away in all directions.

They seemed to be heading towards one place.

Someone asked in surprise: "What is this?"

The kindhearted villager smiled and explained: "I see you have only been here for a short time?"

"My father-in-law is right. I am a refugee from the north. I came here to seek refuge with my relatives and friends."

The old man looked as if he had expected nothing. He pointed to a house in the distance and puffed out his chest proudly, "Do you know where that is?"

"Please enlighten me, old man."

The old man raised his head and said, "It's called Xiangyang No. 1 Primary School."

"Primary school?"

"Hehe, you are confused, right? Do you know Envoy Liu?"

"Envoy Liu?"

The young man suddenly realized, "Could it be that you are talking about General Wei?"

"That's right." The father-in-law nodded.

The young man was so excited that he could hardly contain himself. "General Wei, Yangcheng is in urgent need of help. Everyone in the world knows about it. I heard that General Wei governed Jingzhou, so I fled here with my family. Could it be that the school is also related to General Wei?"

"Of course. The First Primary School in Xiangyang was established by order of General Wei. Any child of the appropriate age can apply for the exam."

The young man gradually calmed down and said with some concern: "In this way, the family will be short of helpers."

The old man shook his head and sighed, "Don't worry for now. Jingzhou has been constantly repairing canals and building dams in recent years. The government has lent out oxen at low prices, provided farm tools, sold manure, and even had officials to read out farming methods. As long as there is a laborer in the family, it can fill the family's stomach and support the children's studies. If they are successful in their studies and pass the assessment, they can become officials. Even if you are not talented, it is always good to be able to read and write. You can also earn extra money by copying books for others."

The young man was delighted by his father-in-law's words, and he looked up to the sky and cried out, "Father-in-law's words really enlightened me. I will let my son go to the elementary school to try it out!"

Watching the young man leave, the old man nodded slightly with satisfaction.

"Mr. Pang, today is the day for the students to go home. The school is busy right now. Is it really okay to leave it to the mountain people?"

A deep voice revealed the father-in-law's identity.

Pang Degong looked in the direction of the voice and cast his eyes at the old man in robes, with white hair and beard, but full of energy. He smiled and said, "Brother Zigan, you also sneaked out of the school, and you still have the nerve to criticize me?"

"I am different from Pang Gong. I am old and don't like being in crowded places. I am not like Pang Gong. On the contrary, I am getting younger as I grow older."

"Brother Zigan has become the Grand Tutor. I am far inferior to him. How dare I say anything bad about him?"

The two men exchanged sharp words, but their tone was relaxed and contented.

Especially when Pang Degong finished speaking, the two of them looked at each other and burst into laughter.

When Pang Degong and Lu Zhi were walking together in the village, Lu Zhi could not help but say, "Pang Gong, you are very knowledgeable. It would be a waste for you to stay in the countryside. Why don't you come with me to Chang'an?"

"I don't like the government." Pang Degong shook his head. "I can benefit the people if I stay in the countryside. His words have made me see the light. The great governance that the ancient sages pursued, what can be better than letting the children of the world have books to read? When the children grow into towering trees like young buds, there will be no shortage of talents in the world. The era of the ancient sage kings is not far away! This matter starts from Jingzhou!"

Lu Zhi sighed, "Alas, this is not an easy task." Lu Zhi did not finish his words, he really could not bear to deny Pang Degong's ambition. Not to mention the world, even Jingzhou would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

A few years after the establishment of Xiangyang Primary School, under the governance of Liu Bei, most of the people in Jingzhou had surplus food at home. Also, because Liu Bei was famous and called for young children to go to school, various primary schools sprang up like mushrooms after a rain. Although Pang Degong was in charge of the first primary school in Xiangyang, Sima Hui was Pang Degong's good friend after all. After a few visits, Pang Degong accepted the matter of sending Jingzhou children to school.

Lu Zhi once tried to deal with the matters that Pang Degong was responsible for, and he felt a headache when he saw all the things involved.

Unexpectedly, the more Pang Degong worked, the better his mood became.

For the first time, he felt the terrifying power of his disciple.

But who would have known that Liu Li, who called himself Little Xuande, was actually so mediocre, and it was a pity that he was Xuande's adopted son.

Instead, he was amazed by Zhuge Liang's talent. He was so smart at such a young age, and he must be a great sage in the future.

"Mr. Pang, I haven't seen Liu Li for a long time. Where did Liu Li go?" Lu Zhi asked.

Pang Degong looked at Lu Zhi helplessly and said, "Brother Zigan, you have asked this question many times. Liu Li has been taken back to Zhuo County by his relatives."

"Hahaha, I'm old, I'm old." Lu Zhi said casually: "He's just an ordinary kid, why bother about him, why bother about him"

Pang Degong did not expose Lu Zhi's lies, although his good friend always said that Liu Xie was just an average person. Even Pang Shanmin could see that Lu Zhi really cared about Liu Li.

Maybe he saw Xuande's shadow.

Pang Degong did not think any more. He tugged at Lu Zhi's sleeve and said, "Brother Zigan, let's go. I will encourage you today."

"Good!" Lu Zhi nodded with satisfaction.

"Ok?"

"I am the Protector General of the Western Regions?"

Zhang Liao was a little confused when he heard the eunuch read out the imperial edict, but after being reminded by his generals, he stood up quickly, took the imperial eunuch, and bowed to thank the eunuch, "Thank you, angel!"

After saying this, he signaled his subordinate with his eyes to take out some gold and silver and put it into the eunuch's hands.

Unexpectedly, the eunuch was terrified and refused again and again, "No, no, General, you absolutely cannot do this!"

Such a strange sight really surprised Zhang Liao. Didn’t the eunuchs before love money like their life?
General Liu actually had such a method that made the eunuchs thousands of miles away dare not embezzle.
However, what Zhang Liao didn't know was that he was not the only eunuch traveling with him, and there were many pairs of eyes staring at him all the time. Although money is good, one must have a life to spend it!
What's more, the emperor is not stingy. If such behavior is known to his colleagues, it will be the end of him.

The eunuchs today are eager to stab someone in the back.

Seeing that Zhang Liao was about to force the gold and silver into his arms, he was so frightened that his eyes widened in horror and he backed away repeatedly, saying, "Don't come over here!"

"Hiss" Zhang Liao had to give up.

But he suddenly thought of something and said with a smile: "Angel, I want to know what positions the two generals Guan and Zhang, Taishi Ziyi and others hold. These are the rewards, you can take them yourself."

"This" The eunuch hesitated for a moment. This doesn't seem to be against the law.
He gritted his teeth and made a decision. He walked forward and picked the smallest piece. Then he cleared his throat and listed them one by one: "Guan Yu was granted the title of Zuo Fengyi and was given the title of General of Louchuan. Zhang Fei was granted the title of You Fufeng and was given the title of General of Xiaoqi. Zhao Yun was granted the title of Governor of Rinan County and was given the title of General of Taokou. Jian Yong was made Chief Clerk of General Wei and was granted the title of Marquis of Ting. Xu Huang was transferred to be the Governor of Liangzhou, Pang De was promoted to be the Captain of the Protectorate of Qiang, Sun Qian was transferred to be the Governor of Jincheng, and Taishi Ci was transferred to be the Chief Clerk of the Protectorate of the Western Regions."

Is General Liu going to take action against Rinan County?

Zhang Liao seemed to be thinking about something.
