Just like today's Yuan family, there are disciples and former officials all over the world, so it is not surprising that there are generations of ministers.
Coupled with the monopoly of various scholars and cultures, ordinary people did not even have the opportunity to study. Naturally, it was difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son.
The powerful nobles took the initiative to hand over the invitation, just because they saw that he couldn't handle it easily, so they could only bow their heads and exchange benefits with him.
After all, as the governor of Yanzhou, he had only half a foot in the circle of Yanzhou nobles.
It's still the kind with a pyramid tip.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, and Yanzhou's officialdom suffered heavy losses, and there were still many vacant positions.
As the governor of Yanzhou, he had the final say on these ordinary errands.
How could these nobles let this piece of fat go?
Seeing Yanzhou pacified in an orderly manner.
One by one, like flies that smelled the smell, they gathered around.
However, he didn't have the slightest fondness for these nobles.
The previous governor of Yanzhou died, but he also left a lot of mess.
These nobles watched the fire from across the bank and watched his entertainment.
If there is an opportunity to add insult to injury, they will never let it go.
If he hadn't found a way to solve the food crisis.
The power of Yanzhou has probably been divided up by these noble clans long ago.
These are the nobles of the Eastern Han Dynasty, maggots attached to the bones that parasitize on the giant Han!
Historically, Cao Cao killed the local nobles in Yanzhou.
He challenged the prestige of the Yanzhou gentry and was later betrayed by the gentry.
In the eyes of those nobles, killing people was not a big deal.
Even the people are like livestock in their eyes.
But if you dare to slaughter the nobles, you will be outraged by both humans and gods!
Therefore, in Liu Hong's eyes, this group of nobles are disgusting shit stirrups.
Indulge yourself and jump up and down.
If he were really beaten to death with a stick, he would be covered in fishy smell.
However, we have to admit that most of the top counselors or officials of the Eastern Han Dynasty came from the gentry.
These nobles had controlled the place for many years and had great influence, even more than the officials of the imperial court.
His words and deeds can confuse the people.
Coupled with the money and food, even Liu Hong can't be too harsh on these nobles now.
Otherwise, if this group of nobles resist, both sides will suffer losses.
However, there is no need to be too polite.
After all, he now has many soldiers and generals.
If he was really annoyed, it would not be difficult to randomly mobilize thousands of elites and massacre a few noble clans under the pretense of colluding with the Yellow Turban thieves.
Liu Hong can figure this out.
Naturally, this group of powerful nobles also knew it.
Since you can't handle the governor, and you don't know how to bow your head, you really can't tell the difference between the king and the king.
After all, except for the princes of the court.
Everyone in Yanzhou must act based on his face.
"Forget it, I want to see what kind of medicine these nobles sell in their gourds."
"Bring them in."
Liu Hong waved his hand.
Cheng Yu left in response.
Although I am unhappy with these nobles, I still need to see them.
If the nobles take the initiative to come to the door, they must give up some of their profits.
If you don't take the benefits that are right in front of you, you won't get them in vain.
Moreover, these nobles could not stay around for long.
When Liu Hong died, Dong Zhuo lost power and the heroes divided their power.
When the time comes, this group of nobles will be at his mercy.
The gentry resisted?
His entries are designed to cure all dissatisfaction.
No matter how hard the bones are, they can still turn into a loyal dog.
If it doesn't work, just destroy it.
Others need the support of the noble family, but he does not.
With the system in place, he is a talent creation machine.
Moreover, as the governor of Yanzhou, he must have officials who are absolutely loyal to him in various important positions.
It would be delusional to think of dealing with him the same way as Cao Cao.
This is called breaking all laws with one force, and only a wall-hanger like him can take this path.
Soon, a young man dressed in luxurious silk came forward.
"I'd like to see you, Lord Governor."
Give way and salute.
Bian Rang, Yanzhou Chenliu famous scholars, good at debating poetry, famous among the Han Dynasty.
"No need to be polite."
Liu Hong drooped his eyelids and lacked interest.
Bian let him know that he still had a reputation and was a famous Han scholar on the same level as Kong Rong.
However, celebrities and the like are worthless to him.
If he were a top strategist and military general, he might even have a courtesy corporal.
He didn't bother to enter the celebrities and the circle behind them.
If you enter the circle of celebrities, you can be famous as a great man.
It can better recruit various counselors and generals, and let famous ministers and generals submit their own certificates of surrender.
But Liu Hong is not in the farming profession. As long as he keeps refreshing his entries, it is only a matter of time before he can lead the troubled times.
The success of the king and the defeat of the bandits will be told by future generations.
Cao Cao's reputation is so bad, and the nobles kill him whenever they want. Isn't it enough to divide the world into three parts, and still enjoy it?
If he hadn't died early, it would have been only a matter of time before he could dominate the world.
These nobles and celebrities can only be of some use while the prestige of the Han Dynasty is still there.
When the Han Dynasty collapsed, the prestige and power of the gentry would be nothing more than a piece of waste paper.
Therefore, Liu Hong did not intend to waste time on this.
Seeing that the people in the hall were not kneeling, but gave way with proud expressions on their faces.
He was a little more impressed.
He had an arrogant personality, relied on his talents and was arrogant, and was eventually killed by Cao Cao.
At the same time, it was also the trigger that caused the Yanzhou nobles to betray Cao Cao.
Bian Rang was a little angry when he saw Liu Hong ignoring him.
However, I can only endure it.
The Han Dynasty governed the country with filial piety. This old guy was over a hundred years old and was the governor of a state.
Identity and status are all above him. Even if the other party relies on his old age to show off his old age, he can only continue, and even use the courtesy of a junior, and cannot go beyond it.
Liu Hong could be rude to him, but he couldn't.
If word spreads about being rude to Liu Hong, his reputation will be ruined.
He immediately bowed his hands and saluted.
"Your Majesty the Governor, Wenli is the representative recommended by the noble family to meet you."
"Why."
Liu Hong hummed and glanced at Bian Rang.
"The nobles of Yanzhou could not bear to see the common people of the Han Dynasty, who had to leave their homes and become homeless, so they were willing to contribute money and efforts to quell the Yellow Turban bandits and rescue the victims."
"Of course, the ability to put down the rebellion is all due to your merits."
Bian Rang said, looking at Liu Hong's expression.
"When the time comes, the imperial court will reward you. I hope you will remember me and others."
The words fell.
The hall was silent.
Liu Hong's eyes moved slightly and he smiled.
"That's very good."
When Bian Rang heard this, his tone was a little excited.
Liu Hong didn't care, after all, his die-hard loyalists had already been assigned to the truly important positions.
It doesn't matter if the remaining vacancies are left to the Yanzhou nobles.
If Bian Rang sees him, it means that the Yanzhou nobles bow to him and have no choice.
If he bows to these nobles, he will have to cut off his flesh!
Liu Hong took the initiative in the discussion between the two.
Bian Rang already knew the bottom line of the wealthy noble family before he came.
After the discussion, although it was not in line with previous expectations, it was still on the bottom line.
The wealthy noble families of Yanzhou gathered together, waiting for the good news of Bian Yi.
"How is it? Has the Governor agreed to the request?"
As soon as Bian Rang entered the gate, several nobles asked hurriedly.
"Wenli lives up to expectations."
"Although the process was bumpy, the final result is still acceptable,"
Bian Rang told the contents of the discussion and bowed his hands to everyone.
"Hahaha, okay, Wen Li is indeed talented and handsome."
"I have a daughter in my family who can be married off to Wenli as my concubine."
Regarding this result, the noble family finally breathed a sigh of relief.
soon.
With the addition of wealthy noble families in Yanzhou, Liu Hong felt much more relaxed and no longer had to crawl on the slips to approve official duties every day.
