Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

It's not that Liu Bei didn't want to promote Chen Deng, but that Chen Deng refused repeatedly. After a long time, Liu Bei also understood that Chen Deng belonged to the kind of talented generation who was bound by his family, so it was mostly a generous gift, rather than repeatedly hoping to promote Chen Deng to Chang'an He held an important position, and then selected capable ones from among Chen Deng's uncles and brothers to be promoted to prefects.

I have to say that Chen's education is good, and the descendants of the Chen family in Xiapi are all good, but Liu Bei still feels a little pity for Chen Deng.

At the beginning of this year, Liu Bei was very happy when he found out that Chen Deng had changed his mind. Even if he didn't bluntly tell Chen Deng to go back and prepare for a transfer to an important position, he gave hints.

In fact, Liu Bei's plan at the beginning was to transfer Chen Deng directly to Chang'an, but was rejected by Chen Xi. Speaking of the transfer of civil servants, although Chen Xi needed to be transferred, Chen Xi was basically not stuck, like Chen Deng like Chen Xi. Just tick the box and you're done.

However, Chen Xi refused that time, and Chen Xi told Liu Beiming that Chen Deng was not suitable for Chang'an.

"I don't deny Chen Yuanlong's talent, but he is not suitable for Chang'an. Now he wants to come to Chang'an, more because he was hit. He thinks that the family's revival is hopeless, so he abandons himself. The ability he can display here is definitely not up to the mark. To the limit." Chen Xi said helplessly.

It's not that he has never seen what Chen Deng looks like. In terms of intelligence and vision alone, he is no worse than Jushou's level. Those are the proper parameters of a top adviser, but what about his heart?

What kind of mind is Jushou, and what is Chen Deng's mind? There is a fundamental gap in the limit of the same parameters, and the top advisors are fighting for these things.

Although Chen Xi said that he is a middle-aged person, but Chen Xi's material is not considered a thousand-year-old wisdom and experience, but he can be counted as the level of Qianliju. The difference lies in the height of the stand.

You don't even dare to think about what I did, how can you beat me just like that!

Chen Deng's problem is also here. This guy has been seeking for the growth of the Chen family. It is best to overtake the Yingchuan Chen family and become the new originator of the Chen family. But from the point of view, it is impossible. Just like learning, with the same talent, always working hard towards the world's strongest, even if you can't succeed, it will be better than just muddling along.

Therefore, in Chen Xi's view, the Xiapi Chen family's approach is a pitfall. They forcefully made themselves out of that circle, and a guy like you who aims at the strength of the princes and divides the soil and grass is really a guy like you who wants to grow up. Can guy who aims at own family catch up? Especially in terms of qualifications, your qualifications may not be as good as these people.

Liu Bei understood what Chen Xi meant, and felt a little helpless. He also understood that it was true. Chen Deng was just beaten too much and gave up on himself. He didn't really want to work here, he just wanted to hang around.

"If Lord Xuande really wants to cheer Chen Yuanlong up, it's simple, let him go to the Western Regions to be Sima Boda's deputy, that's an opportunity, just like I acquiesced that Boda was there to release water for other aristocratic families, Chen Yuanlong can also Go release the water, he will be extremely active there, working harder than in Xuzhou, and may even work until he dies in office." Chen Xi said with a half-sneer.

Liu Bei was silent for a while when he heard the words. Indeed, if Chen Deng went over, the two family-oriented guys would definitely work hard there to the point of death.

However, Liu Bei refused. Chen Deng had known him for so many years, and he had always been the governor of Xuzhou. How could he be sent to the Western Regions to be Sima Zhongda's deputy.

Chen Xi laughed at Liu Bei and said yes, believe it or not, I sent this news to Chen Yuanlong, and then sent a piece of black material about Sima Zhongda of the Western Regions doing state affairs during the day and clearing up the family at night to Xuzhou. to go.

Liu Bei has nothing to say about this possibility. Even Liu Bei thinks it is very possible, although it is a bit of a slap in the face. Chen Deng is the representative of the true family interests first. Going to the Western Regions has too obvious advantages for building a family. He will also solve all the things that the Chen family has been unable to handle before, so as long as he receives this material, Chen Deng will definitely go.

Not to mention a half-level position reduction, Chen Deng would be happy even if it was a further reduction. Compared with official titles and titles, family interests are more important in Chen Deng's eyes. Once it is established, as long as a small country can be established, it will not be a loss.

Liu Bei was also choked by Chen Xi, and in the end he could only express annoyedly, Chen Xi, find me a suitable position, but he also agrees with Chen Xi's idea in his heart, Chen Deng is not suitable to come to the Central Committee, that guy needs to go to a suitable place The place.

Chen Xi smiled, and clicked on the southwest corner, saying that he would relocate the governor of Yizhou and serve as a transshipment point for the Southwest War. He directly told Chen Deng that there would be the same demand, and that Chen Deng would do the rest himself. And Zhang Song was transferred to the Jiangnan area to take over Lu Su's work, and then transferred Lu Su back. Yes, the most important thing was to transfer Lu Su back.

Chen Xi couldn't stand this kind of life any longer. Although Zhuge Liang could work, there were too few people in the entire political academy who could do it. Although Xun Yun and Xun Ji were useful, they were not Xun and Xun You. There is a clear gap in experience and sophistication.

In addition, Jia Xu and Guo Jia are half-assessed in internal affairs, Zhao Yun took the best plan, and the agricultural tax depends on Liu Ye alone. Even Chen Xi has no good solution for such a purely digital thing, and only Liu Ye can do it. I can't move at all.

Sun Qian was building roads, at the end of the year Mi Zhu was going to gather people to re-record the members of the chamber of commerce, Man Chong and Xun Yue were still sorting out the law, Jian Yong was arrested to compile the annals, revised the pre-Qin literature and history, reorganized the classics, and prepared to collect and burn all the existing books For the record.

None of these things can be stopped, so that the only people Chen Xi can use are cats and cats. Although Zhuge Liang is very capable, he is still a person. Even if he wants to be a human being, it depends on his age. I got married a few years ago, so it's supposed to be a rest these days.

But looking at the current situation, maybe the day before the wedding, Zhuge Liang will continue to work overtime at the Political Yuan, Chen Xi has a little conscience about this, so he can only pitifully find a way to call Lu Su back, at least get him back One has to work.

Chen Xi's words fell on the matter of calling Lu Su back, and Liu Bei understood Chen Xi's thoughts. Although it was still summer at that time, Chen Xi was not as miserable as it is now, but what does Chen Zichuan, who is planning for a rainy day, do? Of course, it is necessary to arrange the work of others in advance, so that while fishing for fish, the short-term progress of the whole society can be steadily promoted.

Although Liu Bei wanted to complain about this, Chen Xi's organization was so clear that Liu Bei was unable to refute it. In addition, Chen Xi's handling was beneficial to the three of them, so Liu Bei just mocked Chen Xi and agreed to the decision thing.

Naturally, even though the letter of appointment has not yet been issued, well-informed people like Chen Deng and Zhang Song already know that they are going to be transferred to another life, and even because of their respective methods, they already know where they are going to be transferred.

When Chen Deng came to Chang'an for planning, he couldn't help but bring a few live Yellow River carp to visit Chen Xi, as a way of expressing his gratitude. As for giving other things, well, Chen Deng thought for a while, but he didn't think that Chen Xi would be short of anything.

Send some gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy and painting antiques or something? Come on, the combined names of the five big businessmen are not as thick as Chen Xi's own arm, so they paid for Chen Xi? This is already one of the biggest jokes in the world. As for antique calligraphy and paintings, Chen Deng does have them, but Chen Xi's hobbies for such things are very ordinary. In fact, the entire Central Plains now knows that Chen Xi's hobbies are rather weird.

It seems that Chen Xi has no interest in those so-called things that appeal to both refined and popular tastes, those exciting and pleasant things, those yellow and white things that ordinary people like very much, and the ones that can barely be called interesting are probably food, so Chen Deng passed by When I was in the Yellow River, I happened to come across some live Yellow River carps, so I got a few and brought them to me.

Then on the same day, Chen Xi chopped up the big Yellow River carp, cooked it and ate it.

Chen Xi would not refuse to give him something to eat. In the Central Plains, he could not refuse such a thing as a human relationship. Chen Deng caught the fish himself and ate it.

And Chen Deng didn't think about such a thing as a few fish buying off Chen Xi. He belittled himself, but Chen Deng admitted that he was such a person.

Do you really think that Chen Deng doesn't know what's going on with him? I know, but there are some things that can’t be solved by knowing the mistakes and correcting them. Just like everyone knows that if you manage your own world well, you will not be far from Datong, but can’t you still manage it well?

It is difficult for human beings to understand each other, and it is also difficult not to cause trouble for others. After all, this is the shortcoming of social creatures.

As for Zhang Song, Liu Ye will accompany him, but after Lu Su returns in a few days, Lu Su will meet Zhang Song in person, and then pass on all his experience in governing Jiangnan to Liu Ye.

It is different from other times when you go to a place with an edict to take office, and then the local officials are handed over on the spot. Now there is no need to do that at all, and there is no need to lead troops to hand over as before, and even lead troops. possibility of killing.

It's not Chen Xi's bragging right now. While the central government has blocked the logistics lifeline of most places, it has also blocked the military power in almost all places. The continuous discharge of troops has allowed the imperial power represented by Liu Bei to continuously invade the localities.

In the vacuum period of local power after the aristocratic family was eliminated, before other problems emerged, the means reserved by Chen Xi had already formed a new grassroots system.

Although a large part of this is Liu Bei's ability, without Liu Bei, Chen Xi really couldn't do it so smoothly, but anyway, the problem of imperial power not coming down to the county has been solved.
