"The Prime Minister said that my brother, Yizhou Diannong School Weimin, is an official. The court will not appoint anyone else for the time being, and let my brother take it for himself."
Sounds familiar, very familiar!
When Liu Bei died that year, he also said to Zhuge Lao Yao that he "took it for himself".
There are two meanings, one is to replace oneself, the other is to take others and leave them alone.
But no matter which one it is, it will not affect the political trend of the next ten years of the Han Dynasty.
That is, all government orders came from Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Lao Yao will definitely not replace him, but A Dou will have an additional father-in-law from now on.
So when he heard Zhuge Lao Yao say to himself the words "take it for yourself", Feng Tubou couldn't stand it for a moment and almost jumped up.
"The officials of the imperial court are public servants. How can they be taught privately?"
Feng Yong was a little surprised and confused, thinking that I had never dealt with the old demon Zhuge. How could he be so generous with his searching appearance? Besides, he wouldn't be this kind of person.
"It's not a private lesson."
Li Yi explained, "The Prime Minister also said that there is only one big man in the Dian Nong School, and he is his elder brother."
"My brother is familiar with farming. If the official appoints someone else, it might tie up my brother's hands and feet. It is better to let my brother take care of himself and select some suitable people. Remember to report it when the time comes."
Um?
After hearing this, Feng Yong felt relieved.
This is normal.
Although it is said to be "self-picked", it still needs to be reported and recorded. The so-called suitable manpower means that the person who reports it must not be too careless.
Yizhou Dian Nong Xiaowei supervises the agricultural affairs in Yizhou. He has the right to supervise and report anything he sees or the agricultural affairs in Yizhou.
It sounds very high-end, but in fact it is not much different from Wei Cheng of Hanzhong Dian Agricultural School.
All are just senior advisors.
It's just that the Diannong Xiaowei of Yizhou is more senior than the Diannong Xiaowei Cheng of Hanzhong. He can wander around and doesn't have to stick to Hanzhong.
But the power in his hands has not increased at all.
It has been upgraded from being able to talk about farming in Hanzhong to being able to talk about farming in Yizhou.
Or is it still the same: I can only use words, but can't take action, and it's only a minor power?
"Yizhou Dian Nong Xiaowei, how many officials are there?"
Feng Yong asked.
Although it was a false position, Feng Yong knew that this was the first time that the old demon Zhuge clearly expressed his opinion of himself to him. The general meaning was that he could find some local buddies.
This is similar to the encouragement given by leaders in later generations to their subordinates: Young man, I am very optimistic about you. I have given you the platform and the opportunity. It depends on whether you can grasp it.
Official hats are very valuable, not to mention that with Zhao Guang and Wang Xunzhuyu in front of them, the official hat held in a certain bumpkin's hand will have a certain bonus aura.
Even if it is a false position, it is still valuable.
If you follow a certain bastard, as long as your posture is correct, you can get the credit while lying down.
Li Yi saw this clearly, that's why he was so excited.
"The position of Diannong Xiaowei was created by the prime minister to facilitate farming. My elder brother is the first person to hold this position, so I don't know much about it. But according to the example of Diannong Xiaowei Cheng in Hanzhong, there must be some left and right Sima."
Li Yi paused for a moment and then continued, "Furthermore, according to what the Prime Minister said, Yizhou is a vast territory. If there are only left and right Sima under Diannong Xiaowei, I am afraid that he will not be able to manage it, so there may be some officials below."
Why did the prime minister make it for the convenience of farming? He obviously learned from Cao Cao's old wisdom. Do you think I don't know?
But this is not the point. The point is that there is not much difference between officials and officials at this time. The so-called officials generally refer to the top officials of a certain department, while officials are the officials below the officials who manage specific affairs.
Therefore, what Li Yi said about setting up some officials is actually setting up some officials.
Feng Yong thought in his heart, but his eyes flashed, "So, the Prime Minister has given you a lot of convenience this time."
"That's right." Li Yi couldn't hide his excitement and whispered, "If brother is serious, I will wait until the court's decree comes, and I don't know how many people will come to ask for it. Brother, I have to plan this matter carefully."
"So Wenxuan agreed to Fan A, saying that his descendants could become officials?"
Feng Yong frowned, "Even so, I'm afraid the Prime Minister's side will not have a hard time."
Let's not talk about the identities of Fan A's disciples and grandsons. He is Fan A himself. Even if he has some reputation, it is the reputation he got from medicine. How can it be so easy to become an official?
"Of course I won't start working right away."
Li Yi smiled and said, "Although I have been promised an official position in the Fan family this time, how can I let a medical worker get an official position for no reason?"
"My little brother just guarantees that if the Fan family is willing to work in Hanzhong, they can change their humble status to a good one. If there are any young people in the family who stand out, we will recommend them to become officials if we find opportunities in the future."
For Feng Yong, it was the simplest thing to do from a lowly status to an improved status.
Li Yi is the magistrate of Nanxiang County, and it's basically just a matter of one sentence.
But it was originally part of Feng Yong's plan to have no humble status in the textile workshop.
Feng Yong glanced at Li Yi in shock, "Wenxuan means to let them improve their registration first, and then let them wait?"
"This is natural. Otherwise, how could you immediately join the official position as soon as you get a reformed certificate?"
Li Yi looked like it was natural.
"They believe it?"
This shouldn't be the case. Could it be that just one word from you can make an experienced person like Fan A believe it?
"Naturally, others wouldn't believe it easily," Li Yi smiled evilly, "But my master is kind to them, so Fan A has to come even if he doesn't want to."
"As long as he comes to Hanzhong, won't my brother soon have a few official positions? As soon as the imperial decree comes, they will naturally believe what I say."
"You can't tell them that!"
Feng Yong still didn't understand.
"I didn't say I would give it to them this time." Li Yi chuckled, "Since brother can have a first time, maybe there will be a second time?"
Holy shit!
So you had no intention of fulfilling your promise at all?
Who knows when the second time will be?
Maybe there will never be a second time in the future?
So Li Yi’s tricks were evil! When they take root in Hanzhong, will they still think about returning to Nanzhong?
Besides, in Li Yi's words, it's not that I won't give it to you, I just didn't find the right opportunity...
A lowly person has no human rights!
Judging from Li Yi's appearance, he has no mental barriers at all to deceive others.
"Brother, don't worry." Li Yi seemed to see what Feng Yong was thinking, "Brother, don't forget, in Nanxiang County, the prime minister has not sent any county officials..."
Feng Yong finally woke up.
This Nanxiang County seems to be a testing ground for the old demon Zhuge to throw to a few of his young boys.
Nowadays, the county government, including Li Qiu and Huang Chong, and the rest are all workshop guards. If something happens, they will be temporarily summoned to pretend to be government officials.
"It's just that Nanxiang County is getting more and more prosperous now. I'm afraid the Prime Minister may not be as hands-off as he is now."
Feng Yong said thoughtfully.
"But Nanxiang County was established in the hands of me and a few others. Even if the Prime Minister sends others here in the future, the new county magistrate will still have to accept the favor of me and others."
Li Yi was not worried at all.
"Besides, with the textile workshop here, how can the future county magistrate bypass my brother?"
Feng Yong glanced at Li Yi and thought that Wenxuan was worthy of being from a wealthy family. This exchange of interests was natural and in line with his status.
Feng Yong nodded, "That's right."
This is not a lie between the two of them, but a fact.
Even if Li Qiu is transferred elsewhere in the future, Zhuge Laoyao plans to take Nanxiang into his hands and officially manage it. To put it bluntly, not only the new county magistrate, but also the old demon Zhuge must consider the attitude of Feng Yong and others.
Everyone can imagine the hardships involved in transforming a desolate place into a prosperous place - although it was mainly the hardships of Feng Tubou's slaves.
But even if there are thousands of slaves in hand, not everyone can create this prosperous place.
If it were really that simple, then everyone would be catching slaves all over the world to count balls!
Yes, everyone is indeed going all over the world to catch slaves now, but if it weren't for a certain country bumpkin's clever words, ah, some suggestions, where would everyone get this energy?
So it still depends on the person.
I just want to reach out and pick peaches without doing anything. How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Besides, since Old Demon Zhuge is fair in dealing with things, he will naturally give some compensation to a few of his people elsewhere.
So when the time comes, if any of Fan A's disciples and disciples really stand out and are recommended to become low-level officials, it shouldn't be a difficult task.
"I have Wenxuan to help me, and I don't know how much trouble has been saved."
Feng Yongzhan smiled and praised.
"Brother, thank you very much."
Li Yi seemed to be extremely satisfied after being praised by Feng Yong. He was modest about himself but couldn't hide the smile on his face.
Just listening to Li Yi's tone, as if Fan A and others were disapproving of them because they were medical workers, Feng Yong felt a little confused, "Although Li Dangzhi's surname is Li, he is just a medical worker. How can we get help from the Li family in Shu?"
Li Yi was from a wealthy family, so his attitude naturally represented the attitudes of most family members toward medical professionals. If you look down on medical workers, why would you lend a helping hand to Li Dangzhi?
Li Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know much about this matter. It seems that the head of the Li family in Guanzhong has been favored by Huayuanhua, and Li Dangzhi is also a member of the Li family in Guanzhong. The Li family in Guanzhong That’s why I’m willing to help Li Dang.”
Feng Yong nodded, "So, the Li family in Guanzhong owes a favor to the Li family in Shuzhong?"
Li Yi smiled and said indifferently, "It's just a medical worker. Even if I owe it, how much can I owe? It's just for the sake of the same origin, so it's not a big deal to do it casually."
Feng Yong nodded, thinking that there were many legends about Hua Tuo. Maybe he had been to Guanzhong and treated the head of the Li family, so he had a favor.
Seeing that Li Yi's face also had a look of dust, Feng Yong said apologetically, "Wenxuan rushed back from Jincheng, and must have been tired all the way. But I still ask you questions like this, so that you can't rest, It really shouldn’t be.”
"Wenxuan should go and rest quickly. Things are not in a hurry. We can talk about anything after Wenxuan has rested."
After traveling such a long distance and talking so much to Feng Yong, Li Yi was really tired. He was not pretentious at the moment and nodded and said, "Then I will go down and rest first."
After Li Yi left, Feng Yong sat on the chair and tapped the table with his fingers, looking thoughtful.
If, as Li Yi said, Zhuge Lao Yao only promoted himself to an official position, but asked himself to recommend other subordinate officials, what should Zhao Guang and Wang Xun do?
Could it be that Old Yao Zhuge felt that Zhao Guang and Wang Xun felt that they had no merit, so he hinted that he did not plan to promote Zhao Guang and Wang Xun to their official positions again?
Thinking of this, Feng Yong shook his head, thinking that this didn't make sense.
How could Zhao Guang and Wang Xun not have any merit? Not only is it there, but it’s also not small.
From Zhu Yejian to Hanzhong Diannong School Lieutenant, these two people have always been his right-hand man. He was promoted to Yizhou Diannong School Lieutenant. Logically, they should also be promoted, but Zhuge Lao Yao did not. It is very thought-provoking to determine the left and right Sima.
If it is because you are worried about forming a party for personal gain, then why do you let yourself "take it for yourself"? This is obviously to let yourself start cultivating a team.
If Feng Yong couldn't figure out this connection, he couldn't figure out what Zhuge Lao Yao meant or what Zhuge Lao Yao was thinking. Then how could he "take it for himself?"
If the person who reported it was kicked off, it would be a big loss.
Even if Old Demon Zhuge gives himself such a face and accepts all the people he submits, I guess I will be greatly discounted in his heart.
It doesn't matter to me. At worst, out of sight and out of mind, I go to Nanzhong to be a carefree farmer. Anyway, Nanzhong has not been in chaos for decades after the death of the Han Dynasty. What are you afraid of?
He was afraid that Zhao Guang and Wang Xun would be implicated, but this was something Feng Yong didn't want to see in his heart.
Although many people now call him brother, in the eyes of outsiders, Zhao Guang and Wang Xun are the only two people who are truly labeled as country bumpkins.
Needless to say, Wang Xun, his father Wang Ping was recommended by Feng Yong, and then he showed his face to the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, and was sent to Nanzhong as the deputy governor.
As for Wang Xun himself, he followed Feng Yong all the way up.
To put it bluntly, even if Feng Yong committed suicide, did something he shouldn't have done, and angered Zhuge Liang, Wang Xun himself would jump out first and take the matter on himself, trying to avoid involving Feng Yong.
Because as long as Feng Yong is here, Wang Xun himself will have a chance to get back on his feet again.
But once something happens to Feng Yong, it will be a safe thing for Wang Xun to be stepped on.
Even Wang Ping may be implicated.
At least this situation will not change until Wang Ping has made great achievements and has not become a top official in the court or the army.
Even if Wang Ping becomes the mainstay of the Han Dynasty, he still cannot escape the mark left by Feng Yong.
Both father and son have benefited from it, how can it be so easy to clean up?
Therefore, the Wang family is bound to Feng Yong, and they are connected by flesh and blood.
As for Zhao Guang, he can now be regarded as the heroic queen of the Han Dynasty.
But after this hero, it’s not just because his father is Zhao Yun.
Instead, he received this praise and received little help from Zhao Yun. Zhao Laosi, a gay man, was very gay with the demon Zhuge. In order to force Feng Yong out, he was even willing to trick his own son Zhao Guang.
Now Zhao Guang holds a lot of credit in one hand and the enviable money and grain in the other - although this money and grain has not yet been cashed in, who doesn't know that textile workshops make money nowadays?
He is also wearing an official hat on his head - although the hat is a bit small at the moment, everyone can foresee that he will definitely change to a larger hat in the future.
These are all obtained by following Feng Yong.
Even his eldest brother Zhao Tong is still struggling to get senior qualifications, and it is obvious that he is not doing as well as him.
It was okay when Zhao Yun was alive, but if he were no longer there one day, no matter how close Zhao Guang was to Zhao Tong, he would have to establish a new clan somewhere else.
Otherwise, based on the current trend, Zhao Guang, as a small clan, will have a lot of money, a high official, and a lot of power in the future, while Zhao Tong, as a big clan, will not be able to compare with Zhao Guang in anything else except for the empty title of Xijue. Where to put it?
The two brothers don't mind, but what about the next generation? Who can guarantee that they won’t fall out?
Therefore, it is only natural for Zhao Guang to reopen a Zhao family.
This is also the favorite thing of ancient people since ancient times.
The branches are scattered and the leaves are scattered, but the branches are connected with each other.
The Li family in Guanzhong and the Li family in Shuzhong are a typical example.
The relationship may come in handy at some point.
