Chapter 1135 Zhuge Dog

But why did Liu Bian laugh? It was because the name of the last person who signed the examination paper was Xie You from Chen County.

Xie You and Liu Bian have never seen it, but they have heard of it because he is Xie Daoyun's elder brother.

Because Liu Bian concealed his identity and made a private life with Xie Daoyun, Xie Yi's father Xie Yi was not happy, so when Zhao Kuangyin and Liu Bian came to the door at the same time to invite Xie An out of the mountain, Xie Yi took refuge in Zhao Kuangyin in a fit of anger.

However, the Xie family has a big business, and Xie Yi alone has more than a dozen children. Most of Xie Yi's children, together with Xie An, moved to Nanyang Wudang County with their families.

But Xie Yi also had a few sons who were filial and stayed behind to serve Zhao Kuangyin.

But at the beginning Zhao Kuangyin only wanted Xie An, and when Xie An left, Zhao Kuangyin didn't care much about the rest of Xie's family.Xie Yi has a fiery temper, and felt Zhao Kuangyin's contempt, Xie Yi was furious, and took his sons back to his hometown, not serving Zhao Kuangyin.But Liu Bian has already offended him, Xie Yi is a face-saving person, but he refuses to save his face and join Liu Bian.

Unexpectedly, Xie Yi actually asked his son to participate in this imperial examination.

Liu Bian looked at the content of Xie You's examination paper again, and found that the writing was fairly comprehensive and well-organized, and he also proposed many good strategies for governing the three states. If the full score is 95, Pan Jun's answer paper can be given 92 points. Then Xie You's answer sheet can be about [-] points.

There are quite a lot of talents in the Xie family, even those younger generations of the Xie family who stayed by Xie Yi's side could still be so outstanding without Xie An's teaching.Liu Bian couldn't help but look forward to it, hoping that his descendants would be like the Xie family, with talents like orchids and jade trees, so that Han Zuo could last longer.

Liu Bian put down the examination paper in his hand, and asked Du Ruhui, "How many people from the Xie family of Chenjun came to take the imperial examination?"

Du Ruhui cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, besides Uncle Xie's parents and children, there are more than a dozen offshoots of Xie's family, a total of no less than 20 people. These people's talents are considered good. Since they signed up for the imperial examination together, it is just right I took a fancy to the examination papers of a Xie family son, so most of these examination papers are the answer papers of Xie family candidates."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Liu Bian slowly opened the remaining examination papers, flipped through them, and found that most of them were the Xie family's study papers.As a result, there were only a few volumes left, which were answered by others. Liu Bian flipped through them one by one, and found that he was not a well-known talent, and there was nothing new in the examination papers, so he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Yuzhou has always been full of aristocratic families, with a prosperous literary style, and Yingchuan County is the center of the world's literature, but it is a pity that there are not many great talents this time.

However, Liu Bian was not discouraged, because these talents had actually taken refuge in him long ago. Those who took refuge in Zhao Guangyi, this time they won Yuzhou, also belonged to him.

His Highness Du Ruhui also finished his meal, and after eating, he stood up and said goodbye: "Your Majesty, I still need my ministers to take care of the imperial examination, so I will take my leave."

"Well, after you go down, order someone to prepare some gifts. The Xie family in Chen County basically moved to Nanyang with Xie An. Now there are more than 20 people here, basically all the young people of the Xie family. It can be seen that my father-in-law is You are showing your kindness to me, so you prepare some gifts to send to me, and when I am free, go to visit. In addition, you should review the remaining test papers as soon as possible, select the best ones, and send them to me."

"My minister obeys the order!" Du Ruhui bowed his hands and retreated.

In the afternoon, Liu Bian didn't watch the martial arts, but calmed down to deal with official duties.

During this period of time, there were a lot of vacancies in the officials of the three prefectures, and the government affairs were not working all the time. Soldiers and horses were dispatched to maintain order in every city and village.

Now that the imperial examination has started, there will soon be a large number of talents who need to be dispatched, so Liu Bian needs to find out the vacancies in various counties and counties as soon as possible, and then select talents for appointment.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Du Ruhui sent many more examination papers. In the afternoon, they had already reviewed all the examination papers, and all the papers they sent were top-notch works, about fifty volumes or so.

This time Liu Bian was not disappointed. Among these candidates, there were still a few talents, such as Jiang Ji, Zhao Yan, Huan Fan, Zhuge Dan and so on.

The talents and learning of these people are no less than Pan Jun's, or even stronger.

For example, Jiang Ji was Cao Cao's confidant adviser in history. When Xun Yu, Xun You and others died of illness and Cheng Yu was old, Jiang Ji and Sima Yi were Cao Cao's advisers.For example, in the first battle of Hefei, it was because of Jiang Ji's strategy that Sun Quan was defeated. In the Battle of Xiangfan, it was Jiang Ji's suggestion to unite Soochow, which led to Guan Yu's defeat and death.

And Jiang Ji was still alive. Sima Yi died of illness after launching the Battle of Gaopingling.

And Zhao Yan, who was also an important minister of Cao Wei's three princes and a veteran of the four dynasties, had a high political record and was good at mediating the relationship between civil and military affairs.The Battle of Xiangfan was Cao Ren's military adviser. Thanks to Zhao Yan's strategy, Cao Ren was invincible.

Huan Fan, in history, was Cao Shuang's think tank, Minister of Cao Wei, Cao Shuang was able to contend with Sima Yi in the early days, forcing Sima Yi to pretend to be sick to let him give up his guard, it was this person who was behind the scenes.Later, when the Gaopingling coup took place, Cao Shuang was trapped outside the city and could not leave the city. Huan Fan suggested that he flee to Xuchang and call up a local army to fight against Sima Yi. Unfortunately, Cao Shuang did not agree. Tired to death.

If there is Zhuge's birthday, the fame will be even greater.

He is Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang's cousin.

Later generations commented on the three of them. Zhuge Liang was called a dragon, Zhuge Jin was called a tiger, and Zhuge Dan was called a dog.

Everyone knows that dragon and tiger praise people, but they don't know that Zhuge Dan is called a dog, but it is not derogatory, but a commendation, a compliment.

As the saying goes, the cunning rabbit dies, and the running dog cooks. It means that when the rabbit dies, there is no need to keep the dog that caught the rabbit. It usually describes that the emperor is vicious.And Zhuge Dan is called a dog here, which has the same meaning as the dog in Jiutu Shi Xinggou Cooking. It is a meritorious dog, which means a hero with meritorious service.

And there are some conspiracy theories in later generations, saying that the Zhuge family is an ambitious family, and one of the three brothers is an official in Soochow, one is an official in Cao Wei, and the other is an official in Shuhan.In fact, this is also wrong. The third brother of Zhuge Liang is Zhuge Jun. It is Zhuge Dan who took refuge in Cao Wei, not Zhuge Jun. Zhuge Jun was also an official of Shu Han.

And Zhuge Dan's talent is not bad. Before and after Sima Yi's Gaoping Mausoleum change, he also became a general of the governor's side, guarding Xu and Yang to guard against Soochow.Just like the nature of Guo Huai and others who were stationed in Yongzhou and guarded one side during Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition in history.

Later, because the Sima family massacred Cao Wei's loyal ministers, and most of these people were his friends, Zhuge Dan was worried that he would be implicated, so he surrendered to Soochow. Later, he was defeated and died. Hundreds of prisoners refused to surrender, and they shouted Zhuge Gong did not hate death, so he lined up these captives in a row during the execution, saying that he would surrender if he did not kill any one, but no one was willing to surrender.Poor Zhuge Dan is very much loved by soldiers.

These four talents are all great talents who can govern a state, and they are still young. Liu Bian is very happy.Because most of the talents he summoned are old, and when these people get old in the future, they will have to rely on these young freshmen to govern the world.

Except for these four people, most of the remaining talents are from aristocratic and poor families from all over the world, and they are not very famous.However, the strategy of governing the country stated in the examination paper can still satisfy Liu Bian, and it is more than enough to serve as a local official.

Time passed, and in the past ten days or so, Liu Bian also took the time to watch the martial arts assessment, but except for Xue Xian, Zhu Neng, Zang Ba and others, they didn't show any serious expressions.

The same is true for the imperial examinations. The most important strategy has been assessed, and the rest is counted, based on Mingjing and the like. Even if it is done well, Liu Bian will not look down on it.
