Three Kingdoms: God-level selection

Having said that, Emperor Ling stopped discussing the issue of the prince.

He turned and asked,"What father said before makes sense. As Bian'er's teacher, I should give him some rewards."

"Since Su Yan is so talented, it would be fine to keep him in the capital as an official. However, there are not many positions suitable for him in the court. Do you have any suggestions, father?"

Zhang Rang bowed and said,"I have heard that Su Yan is not only good at writing poems and governing, but also very good at horseback martial arts."

"Previously, the imperial court had appointed Gongsun Zan as the commander of the Wuhuan Guard, responsible for monitoring the Wuhuan people and guarding the border. However, according to the news I received, Gongsun Zan was negligent, causing thousands of Wuhuan cavalry to cross the blockade and march south to various counties in Youzhou."

"At that time, many counties and prefectures were unable to withstand the Wuhuan's raids and suffered heavy losses."

"At the critical moment, Su Yan, a small magistrate of Zhuo County, dared to lead his troops to resist the Wuhuan people, and completely defeated them, killing thousands of enemies and shocking the entire Youzhou."

"It can be seen that Su Yan is excellent in both civil and military affairs. Although he is still young, your majesty should entrust him with important tasks because of his talent."

Zhang Rang said eloquently.

After listening to it, Emperor Ling was a little annoyed and said,"This Gongsun Zan is really a waste. I valued him so much, but he allowed foreigners to invade the border of my Han Dynasty. It's really hateful. I must punish him."

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

Zhang Rang stepped forward and gently stroked Emperor Ling's back to ease his anger.

"Although Gongsun Zan is guilty, he still has authority over outsiders. If Your Majesty punishes him now, it will easily give those outsiders an opportunity to take advantage of it. Please think twice."

The Emperor Ling nodded after hearing this. He didn't really want to punish Gongsun Zan. What he said just now was just to vent his anger.

He understood what Zhang Rang said, and he wouldn't be stupid enough to arrest Gongsun Zan at this time.

After a long sigh, the Emperor Ling asked:"Regarding the arrangement of Su Yan, does my father have any suggestions?"

Zhang Rang thought for a while and said:"I remember that there is no one to take up the position of General of the Imperial Guards under Guanglu Xun. Your Majesty can let him take up this position and strengthen the training of the Imperial Guards to consolidate the safety of the palace."

After hearing this, Emperor Ling frowned and said,"He is Lu Zhi's disciple, but I only let him come to guard the palace. Is that appropriate?"

Zhang Rang smiled and said,"Your Majesty, this is only temporary. Let Su Yan get familiar with the duties of the Yulin Army first. After he understands them, wouldn't it be appropriate to promote him to the position of Guanglu Xun?""

"Guanglu Xun was one of the Nine Ministers and was a senior official in the court."

"If Your Majesty allows Su Yan to take the position at a young age, it will not only appease Minister Lu, but also make him the focus of discussion among the people of the world."

"By then, people all over the world will say that Your Majesty has a keen eye for heroes, and they will surely praise Your Majesty. Isn't it wonderful to kill two birds with one stone?"

After hearing this, Emperor Ling was overjoyed.

He was also a person who liked face, and he hated those ministers who kept talking about managing government affairs and benefiting the world.

If he could get this done well, and then the world would praise him, those people would probably not dare to bother him anymore, which would be good.

He clapped his hands happily and said,"Father, you are right. Why didn't I think of this? Let's do as father said, and summon Su Yan to the palace tomorrow."

""Your Majesty is wise!"

Zhang Rang complimented, and then chatted with Emperor Ling of Han about something else. Emperor Ling of Han immediately asked him to go back and get the medicine as he needed it urgently in the evening.

Zhang Rang responded quickly, then left the palace and returned to his own residence.

Time passed slowly, night fell, and soon it was evening.

Zhang Rang estimated that the time was almost up and the person should come.

At this time, a servant came to report,"Master, there is a guest from Youzhou outside who wants to see you."

"Please invite them in."

""Here!"

After a while, two people wrapped in black robes came in.

"Governor Su is really strict in his work. He even wears a mask when he comes to my residence."

Zhang Rang looked at the black-robed man who came in and said in a sinister voice

"Zhang Changshi is joking. You should know that my identity is very sensitive. If someone sees me coming to your place, I will be ruined in no time.

One of the two black-robed men who came in laughed and then lifted the hats and robes on their heads.

It was Su Yan, who had been in Beijing for many days, and his personal guard Dian Wei.

"Come on, take a seat."

Zhang Rang motioned for Su Yan to sit down, and Su Yan sat down without hesitation.

""The medicine you gave me before, Governor Su, is truly miraculous. After I gave it to His Majesty yesterday, His Majesty summoned me to the palace early this morning and asked me if I still had the medicine. This shows how powerful it is."

Zhang Rang took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

Su Yan bowed and said,"The medicine is certainly important, but it is mainly because Attendant Zhang is deeply trusted by His Majesty. Otherwise, even if the most miraculous medicine cannot reach His Majesty, what use is it?"

"Zhang Changshi, you are the greatest contributor to His Majesty. Su Yan admires you very much."

Zhang Rang laughed and said,"You are right. I like the way Su Taishou flatters people."

He paused and said,"His Majesty is very satisfied with the effect of the medicine. You should have more, right?"

Su Yan smiled and said,"I can't hide it from your sharp eyes, Zhang Changshi. Yan brought it here today."

He took out three jade bottles from his body and handed them to Zhang Rang

"Zhang Changshi, one of these bottles is the medicine I gave you before, called Hehuan Powder, which can stimulate sexual intercourse and double the effect."

"The other two bottles are Qi-nourishing and Blood-replenishing Pills, which can nourish the body and replenish the essence. You can keep one bottle for yourself and present the other bottle to His Majesty........"

Su Yan stopped, looked at Dian Wei and nodded, Dian Wei then walked out of the house and brought a large wooden box.���Open the box, and you'll see a box full of gold.

"These golds are also my filial gifts to you, please accept them."

Zhang Rang glanced at the box full of gold, the quality seemed very good, and the quantity was not small.

He immediately smiled and said,"Since Governor Su is so thoughtful, I will accept it with pleasure."

He ordered his servants to carry the gold away, and then said,"What you said before is already settled. His Majesty has begun to dislike Gongsun Zan. As long as he causes any problems again, I can let His Majesty take him down."

"As for the matter of Youzhou Mu, this matter is also easy to handle."

"Didn't Liu Yu take Zhang Chun's head? I can use this opportunity to ask His Majesty to summon him to court to be the Grand Commandant, and then your father can take his place. I'll tell you at the court tomorrow."

"That kid would like to thank Zhang Changshi here."

Su Yan bowed and smiled.

Zhang Rang waved his hand and said,"Supreme Governor Su is a smart man. I think you should know clearly who can give you more benefits between me and He Jin. You should understand the situation clearly, right?"

"I can see clearly that Zhang Changshi and others are deeply trusted by His Majesty, and you still have the final say on important matters in the court."

Su Yan said hurriedly.
