Chapter 493: Recruiting Famous Historical Officials for the Imperial Court (Part 3)



A few days later, the rest of the people on the list still hadn't arrived.

Xun Yu is back, and he brought people with him.

"My lord, I have fulfilled your mission."

Feng Yun saw the eight people around Xun Yu and said in surprise:

"So many?"

In order to prevent the prime minister from thinking that he was carrying out illicit activities, Xun Yu immediately said:

"Sir, I know all eight of these men. Each of them has his or her own abilities. These two, Guo Jia and Xun You, have the ability to rule the world. These two, Zhong Yao and Chen Qun, are both talented assistants. And these four, Du Xi, Du Ji, Wei Kang, and Yan Xiang, are all talented individuals who can rule the entire state."

When Fengyun heard that each of them was a celebrity, he was overjoyed.

Especially Guo Jia.

He is the second best strategist in the Three Kingdoms, comparable to Zhuge Liang.

What's more, there are other famous historical officials.

"Hahaha, no need to go into such detail. Since it's you, Xun Yu, who found all these talented people, I'll appoint them all right now."

When they heard this, they were shocked and happy.

They all stood respectfully and listened to Fengyun's appointment.

"Guo Jia and Xun You will be deputy chiefs of staff, in charge of military affairs. Chen Qun and Zhong Yao will be in charge of the Ministry of Personnel. Du Xi, Du Ji, Wei Kang, and Yan Xiang will be in charge of local affairs in the future. Xun Yu will be in charge of the Ministry of War."

Xun Yu may not be suitable for the Ministry of War, but he is a versatile person.

The reason why Fengyun asked him to go to the Ministry of War was that, first, he recommended many talents, and second, there were only six prime ministers in the cabinet.

Based on the principle of first come, first served, Xun Yu would definitely become the Prime Minister of the Ministry of War. In addition, Chen Qun was the first person in history to propose the Nine-Rank System, so he would definitely be appointed as the Prime Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

For the other four, Fengyun Agriculture Department and Commerce Department, he will give the quotas to people from his own territory.

Then the only positions left were vacant in the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Rites. Although he had people he liked for these two positions, it depended on whether they would come.

After Fengyun finished his appointment, everyone bowed in gratitude.

Everyone looked at Feng Yun in a daze. They really couldn't believe that they had become important officials of the Han Dynasty.

"Alright, since you just arrived in Luoyang and don't have your own accommodation, then you can stay at my house in Luoyang. Just stay here and don't worry about anything else. I will find someone to arrange maids to serve you later."

"Thank you, sir."

With such an arrangement, what else can you say?

Whatever the imperial court was unable to give them, Fengyun had already arranged.

In their opinion, there was a reason why Fengyun could become the prime minister at such a young age.

"Okay, go get settled first. I'll catch up with you in a few days."

"yes."

Several people all retreated.

Fengyun immediately went to the palace to meet He Lian.

As soon as He Lian saw Feng Yun, she hurriedly asked:

"How is it? Is the cabinet full now?"

Fengyun said indifferently:

"Not bad. We already have quite a few talented people, but logically, the ones I sent over should have arrived by now. There are still many who haven't responded. I hope you can put pressure on the states to hand over their people as soon as possible."

"Okay, I'll make the decision for you."

Immediately, the governors of each province received a stern warning from the court, saying that if anyone dared not hand over the person, he would be forced to step down.

Now the governors were panicked.

The Three Dukes and Nine Ministers were their fate.

What’s more, the governors of all the states are now members of the Liu family, and they dare not and cannot confront the imperial court head-on.

He immediately issued strict orders to all the prefects under him to hand over the people, and if they did not, they would be executed.

The court forced them, so they forced those below them.

Now all the governors were in chaos.

After receiving the strict order from the court, Liu Yao of Yangzhou immediately found the prefect below.

"Quick! Where's Zhang Zhao? Go to the Zhang family and get him over. Have him report to the court immediately."

"Sir, Zhang Zhao has returned to his hometown."

"Why reply? Send him over here immediately. He has great news for you."

"What good news? He went home and signed up."

"What's the name for this? Come back quickly. The court is looking for him."

"Yes, I'll let him come back immediately."

Liu Yao's sweat was now running down his back.

Jiangdong is a key area that is under the spotlight.

He was the one who was scolded the most.

This guy was drunk with his concubine and didn't take Fengyun's words to heart at all.

And these people didn't know that the court was looking for them.

At this moment, Zhang Zhao has returned to his hometown and is discussing with his clansmen.

"Zi Bu, are you coming back to take the imperial examination?"

"Yes, father, I want to try."

"Well, but I want to tell you. Sun Ce is also recruiting soldiers now, you should consider it too."

Zhang Zhao thought for a moment and said:

"Now that the Han Dynasty is showing signs of recovery, I want to try going to the imperial court first. If I'm rejected, it won't be too late to go find Sun Ce."

His father laughed and said:

"Are you placing your hopes on the reform of the imperial court? Do you think it will succeed?"

Zhang Zhao nodded without hesitation:

"Yes. Fengyun is a lucky general of our Han Dynasty. I am doing this for his sake. Now, apart from him, no one else can save the Han Dynasty. I have made up my mind."

"Alright. Then do as you wish. Now is an opportunity. Only by scraping the bones and curing the poison can the Han people regain their former strength."

"Well, I passed the preliminary exam yesterday and can take the retest tomorrow."

This time Fengyun prepared several sets of test papers for the NPCs.

Only those who have gone through multiple rounds of examinations can become officials.

Of course, there are not many vacant official positions in the Han Dynasty at present.

The competition is quite fierce.

Of course, Zhang Zhao’s target is not just local officials.

Then he could just go find Sun Ce directly.

Just when he was about to go back to review, someone came to him in a hurry.

"Zi Bu, hurry up! The governor urgently wants you here."

The person who came was none other than the county magistrate, and he came in person this time.

The Zhang family is a big family in the county, and the county magistrate usually has dealings with the Zhang family.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong, Governor?"

"It was the governor who was looking for you. I heard the imperial court wants to recruit you."

This was a huge happy event, and Zhang Zhao couldn't sit still.

"Walk!"

He immediately followed the county magistrate.

When Zhang Zhao came to Liu Yao, he saw several familiar faces, including Gu Yong, Zhang Hong, and Lu Su, as well as a few others he didn't recognize.

Seeing Zhang Zhao coming, Liu Yao felt relieved.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, I will arrange for you to go to Luoyang to meet the Prime Minister."

Each of these ten or so people was full of expectations, and they all hoped that the Prime Minister would use them.

They followed the people sent by the governor to the gate of the palace, and someone immediately asked about their identities and took them in.

Yangzhou had the largest number of people, and because of this, they arrived the latest.

Everyone else is here.
