"Forget it, you don't have the guts! Send the guests out."
After that, Liu Heng was invited out of Wang Situ's residence. Before leaving, Liu Heng asked if Diao Chan was here.
The servant took advantage of his status and stared at Liu Heng contemptuously for a long time before he spat out two words from between his teeth,"No!"
Back at the inn, Liu Heng was depressed." That's strange. I was just about to say that I wanted to see Cai Yan when I was whisked out by the servants. I wanted to look for Diao Chan but was chased out of the mansion by Wang Yun... God, it's fine if I can't marry her. At least let me see her!"”
In a fit of anger, Liu Heng did not visit anyone's house. He quietly hid in the inn and studied the Tomes of Arcane.
Half a month later, the imperial court's appointment documents arrived. Xuantu Prefecture's prefect would also be in charge of Right Beiping Prefecture and Liaoxi Prefecture.
After Liu Heng gave some money to the little ghosts, he packed his luggage and began his journey to find a general.
After leaving Luoyang, he went directly north to Anping County in Jizhou, because there was a famous strategist in the Three Kingdoms period who was intelligent and talented but was not put in an important position-Ju Shou.
Speaking of the person who gave it to him, it really made people sigh. If Yuan Shao had listened to his words and used his plan, then the Battle of Guandu might have had a different ending.
"It's just a pity that this talent, casting pearls before swine, actually benefited that ambitious Yuan Benchu. This time, we have to get him here no matter what, even if it means kidnapping him.”
Liu Heng made up his mind and sped up to Anping.
Five days later, the exhausted Liu Heng and his six servants finally entered Quliang City, the capital of Anping County, just before the city gates closed.
The size of this city was similar to Yang Le's, but due to the large population, the city was particularly chaotic.
After finding an inn to settle down and eat, Liu Heng and his servants split up to investigate. They searched all over the city and then to the nearby villages outside the city. They would not let go of any clues.
However, the strange thing was that there was no information about Ju Shou here, as if this person had never existed.
Helpless, Liu Heng could only stay temporarily. Every day, he sent his servants to the villages further away from the city to inquire, and even the neighboring small and medium-sized towns. In the end, they still found nothing.
"What the hell? I remember that the history books clearly wrote that Jushou lived in Anping! It seemed that even the history books were not accurate.”Liu Heng thought.
After a few days of searching, Liu Heng and his group could only move on to the next target, Julu. There was also Tian Feng, who was as famous as Zhushou.
Tian Feng was a straightforward and resolute person. Although he was not strong in strategy, he dared to speak the truth and point out the shortcomings of others. He had a little of Wei Zheng's taste, but he was less mellow than Wei Zheng. It was inevitable that he would offend others. In the end, he still died under his own upright advice.
It was another few days of running around, but this time, it was fine. Liu Heng had inquired about Tian Feng's residence as soon as he entered the city. What Liu Heng did not expect was that Tian Feng actually had quite a reputation in Julu. Many people revealed respectful expressions when they heard Tian Feng's name.
As a result, Liu Heng decided to pay a visit as soon as he stepped into the city.
After a few turns in the city, Liu Heng stood straight in front of the Tian residence. He respectfully handed over the name card and prayed in his heart: "I hope I can recruit Tian Feng! God, please help me."
"Which one of you is Liu Heng? Please come in!"
A servant called out and turned to walk into the courtyard. Liu Heng hurriedly followed him. Before he could enjoy the scenery in the courtyard, he had already entered a large living room.
A middle-aged man was sitting in the main seat of the living room. He was wearing a gray robe and his eyes were full of vigor. He had a square face and a knife-like face that looked especially determined.
Liu Heng immediately bowed and said,"Junior Liu Heng greets Duke Tian."
Tian Feng bowed slightly and gestured for Liu Heng to stand up. "Little brother, you're too polite. Sit!"
At the same time, Tian Feng sized up Liu Heng and said,"You're the new prefect of Xuantu County, you're going to rise up in the future! At such a young age, he had already become the governor of a county. Haha!"
There was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
Liu Heng held back his anger and said self-deprecatingly,""Using a paper making technique to exchange for a county governor, I am very ashamed. However, the younger generation has always been the first to worry about the world's worries and worry, and the last to enjoy the world's happiness and joy to encourage their own hearts.
Thus, he chose Xuantu to protect the people and defend against the enemy. Therefore, Heng was worried that his strength was limited, so he specially went to visit and asked Tian Gong to come out of the mountain to help the younger generation.”
"Hehe, you're so frivolous at such a young age. Let me ask you, why are you worrying about the world first?”
Tian Feng no longer mocked him. Instead, he asked very seriously.
"Agriculture and animal husbandry are the foundation, and industry and commerce are the bones. We encourage the people to produce so that the people under our rule have ample food and clothing.
After that, we will formulate measures to prevent corruption, and finally, we will reorganize our armaments and make our border county army a true army that will make the Wuhuan Xianbei tremble in fear!”
Tian Feng was surprised. He was obviously attracted by the clear idea of this meridian and asked anxiously,"Can you tell me more details?"
"First, we have to recuperate with the people. The lives of the people on the border were difficult, and natural and man-made disasters had been happening for several years.
In her hometown, Xuantu County, many farmers worked hard for a year and had nothing left except to pay various taxes. It was hard for them to even make ends meet.
In the face of disaster, he had to exchange his son for food. The development of agriculture could provide sufficient food, and the development of commerce could provide sufficient clothing. Only by paying equal attention to both could the people truly be rich.
The second was to reform the administration of officials and use the supervision of the people to severely control corruption.
The appointment of officials had to go through a strict examination. Only those who passed the examination were qualified to be candidates. Then, they competed with each other to win the support of the people. In the end, they were jointly elected by the people and no longer appointed by their superiors.
Although this method was troublesome, it could keep those with bad intentions and limited intelligence out of the government. The candidate officials had to contact people from all walks of life to obtain their support. Therefore, they had to understand the desires and expectations of people from all walks of life, which was beneficial to the establishment of politics, administration, transmission of public opinion, and issuing government orders. It could also effectively prevent corruption.
Finally, he prepared weapons, trained the soldiers, improved equipment, and increased combat effectiveness. Those who offend the might of China will be killed no matter how far away they are!”
"Those who offend the might of the heavens of Huaxia will be punished no matter how far away they are!" someone outside praised. The younger generation is really formidable. Brother Yuan Hao, what do you think?”
A seven-foot-tall, handsome middle-aged man walked into the living room.
Tian Feng pointed at the person who came in and said,"That's right, that's right. Gongyu, this foolish brother is convinced! Liu Heng, this is Ju Gongyu, whom you've been looking for for a few days!”
Liu Heng was confused by this scene. However, no matter what, Liu Heng immediately left his seat and went forward to bow." Mr. Ju, you made Wansheng look for you so hard!”
Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.
Tian Feng also stood up and said,"Hehe, don't blame Gongyu wrongly." When you rushed to Luoyang, Gongyu had sent people to Ji City to understand your situation. He knew that you had come up with the art of making paper and printing, and that you had printed all kinds of classic books. Although it was through business, it also showed your good intentions.
We only know that you are from Xuantu, but we know nothing else. Later, Xun Yu wrote a letter with only a few lines of poetry: The blue sky is bright and the blue sky is blue. The wind and clouds are surging, giving birth to heroes. He urged his horse to raise his whip to drive away the enemy and reorganize the rivers and mountains into a new round. Peace and prosperity are smooth, the country is prosperous, the people are stable, and all industries flourish. However, he had a hot-blooded heart that could bring glory to the ancient soul of Huaxia!”
Ju Shou looked at Liu Heng in detail and said,"That's right. It's these few poems that make Gongyu feel that he should get to know you better."”
" You're flattering me too much," Liu Heng replied honestly." I just want to do my best to fulfill my dreams." At home, make the people rich and the country strong, and make the people live and work in peace and contentment without the suffering of war; We will expand our territory and make all the other races submit and integrate into our Chinese civilization.”
Qiushou's eyes lit up." Hehe, what a beautiful dream." Then I have to ask, how to solve the corruption of officials? How can we achieve this?"
Liu Heng organized his thoughts and slowly explained,"Firstly, it is to rule the country according to the law, like how you forced Qin and Shang Yang, but it is different.
Shang Yang's law was too harsh. Although it was beneficial to the country's management, it was only limited to a short period of time. Over time, it would only harm the people.
Therefore, the law should be neither lenient nor strict. Its formulation needed to go through a certain procedure and allowed for changes according to the environment. Everyone, including the royal family, had to be bound by it. In other words, the system of the emperor breaking the law was completely implemented!
Secondly, the duties of the county magistrate and prefect were divided into different levels. Specialists were responsible for reviewing cases, specialists were responsible for controlling the county soldiers, and the county magistrate and prefect were responsible for management and guidance. These three parts were independent, supervised each other, and did not belong to each other. All officials were subject to the supervision of the public, but those who violated the law and were reported could be investigated and punished.
In this way, the people can be stable, the officials can be honest, and the country can be rich and strong.”As soon as he finished speaking, his voice still lingered around the beam.
