Ancestor Bless: I built a thousand-year-old family

Chapter 669: Everything falls into the trap!

Chapter 669: Everything falls into the trap!
Why did Luo Chu ask these people if they would accept it?
Because no one likes outsiders to seize local resources.

Resources such as education and medical care are subject to fierce disputes, and resources such as power cannot be handed over.

However, due to the tradition of the Three Mutual Laws, most warlords are always from outside. In order to get rid of the control of local nobles, warlords always bring their own teams, and these teams are usually outsiders.

The Yingchuan people and Runan people under Yuan Shao in Jizhou, and the Yingchuan people and clan generals under Cao Cao in Yanzhou.

The nobles think that the resources for you to make a fortune are all given by us, and you work hard without complaint. Now that it is time to reap the harvest, they kick us away and the benefits are all given to the previous team.

What's even more annoying is that they continue to suppress us, which is really unkind and unjust!

This is how the conflict between the Jingzhou gentry and Liu Biao came about. Liu Biao single-handedly conquered Jingzhou, and the Jingzhou gentry put in a lot of effort. However, Liu Biao later wanted to introduce outside scholars to check and balance the Jingzhou gentry, so the Jingzhou gentry quit.

Not only Liu Biao, but also for warlords, getting rid of the control of local nobles was the top priority, and balancing the factions under them was extremely critical.

Luo Chu's words immediately stunned everyone present. If you look closely at this sentence, it is quite hurtful. What does it mean?

Luo Chu was saying that a big reason for the dangers Wu County is facing now is that you Wu County nobles are not good enough and have no outstanding talents. Otherwise, why would you worry about people who are not as powerful as you?

Although what Luo Chu said was right, it was hard for everyone to accept for a while. In fact, these six families were not that bad. Gu Yong, the head of the Gu family, and Zhang Wen, the head of the Zhang family, were both pretty good civil servants. In real life Historically, Gu Yong served as prime minister in Soochow for 19 years. This ability was considered strong, and the head of the Zhu family was also someone who could command the army.

But not enough!

In this turbulent era, even most of the Luo family had to rely on the political books studied by their ancestors and so many wise men in Zhaocheng in order to manage the country and enrich the people and strengthen the country.

If you want to play something that relies purely on talent, such as cunning and scheming, it is far from being comparable to natural talents like Jia Xu, Xun You, and Fazheng.

Sun Jian is a truly heroic man. In terms of battle formation alone, there is currently no one in the world who can defeat him reliably.

Even though his character flaws are very obvious, he was born in a poor family but he was able to fight all the way to this point. The generals under his command should not be underestimated, and he was definitely not something that the Jiangdong nobles could resist.

The head of the Lu family thought that he had an extremely talented child, the most outstanding heir he had ever seen. Once he grew up, he might be able to dominate the world, but unfortunately he was too young and could not be used for much now.

Luo Chu looked at everyone with gleaming eyes. He was introduced to Jiangdong by Qiao Wei. Now he is considered the leader and representative of these Jiangdong aristocratic families, but this does not mean that he must act in the interests of these families.

If the aristocratic families in Jiangdong reject his request today, he will finally do something for these people, and then leave Jiangdong with the big and small Qiao sisters and those who are willing to go with him.

Luo Chu was sure that the fate of the Jiangdong nobles would be that Sun Jian led heroes from outside Wu County to invade Wu County. In the end, they had to admit the existence of Sun Jian, and were then jointly suppressed by the scholars and poor generals living in Jiangdong.

The six family heads present, except for Qiao Wei, the remaining five looked at each other. Although they did not speak, everyone understood the meaning revealed in their eyes.

In their opinion, Luo Chu is now asking if they are willing to give up some power to ensure their own safety?
Or do you want to protect your family and be destroyed in the flames of the warlord's war?

How terrible the war was. Although these Jiangdong scholars did not have much experience themselves, the scholars who had fled from Xuzhou and Yuzhou had told them.

The once prosperous family fell completely after just one devastating war. The most prestigious members of the family died in the flames of the war, and only a few direct members of the family fled.

All the wealth that had been accumulated was lost, and countless nobles completely disappeared among the counties. This is no exaggeration.

It was precisely because they had seen the fate of the Central Plains nobles that these Jiangdong nobles welcomed Luo Chu's appearance so much. An existence that could protect the country and the people was the only thing they expected.

Old God Qiao Wei sat calmly and calmly, his eyes even narrowed slightly, as if he had fallen asleep. The turmoil in this situation had nothing to do with him.

The six surnames in Wu County have known each other for hundreds of years, and they are closely connected with each other. There are many marriages between them, so he spent hundreds of years of friendship between the Qiao family and the Luo family to invite Luo Chu here, and personally gave his two daughters to him. Yes, this is enough. Whether he can seize the opportunity or not is not his decision.

Although the six surnames of Wu County are in a relationship where both prosper and suffer, who can control the thoughts of others?

Qiao Wei thinks he can't do it, and leaves everything to God's fate.

Countless thoughts flashed through Gu Yong's mind, and he looked at Qiaowei again, and finally made up his mind. It was for the safety of his family, and he would just have to pay some price for this.

So after receiving the signals from the other people, he bowed to Luo Chu and said, "Master.

Since ancient times, it has never been heard that people who do not attach importance to talents can stabilize the country. This is true for every dynasty and country.

Now Jiangdong has insufficient talents and has fallen into such an embarrassing situation. This is God's warning to us!

If you don't treat God respectfully, you will definitely be punished by God.

Now that you have said these words, Master, Yong is deeply moved by them.

Do I have any contribution to the Han Dynasty?
What contribution have I made to Jiangdong that I should be proud of?

After counting carefully, I couldn't find any tiles or bricks.

He just relied on the qualifications of the Gu family and was flattered by Jiangdong scholars, but he was so complacent because of this.

This is arrogance, forgetfulness and lack of humility. Now that we encounter a jackal like Sun Jian and fall into a dangerous situation, isn't this a punishment for the past?
Now it is up to you to remind us, so that we can break free from it, we should recruit talented people who were born in Yangzhou and live in Yangzhou! "

Qiao Wei suddenly opened his eyes, and couldn't help but smile on his face. In Qiao Wei's opinion, these people made the most correct choice. Seeing Qiao Wei's reaction, the other five people couldn't help but feel a little relieved. One breath.

As a former branch of the Luo family, the ancestors of the Qiao family were the younger brothers of Luo Wugong, who was known as "the last afterglow of the destiny of Zhou Dynasty". Later, there were ancestors who followed Zhaosheng King Luoling for so many years and still lived in Zhaocheng. Over the years, I have gotten to know Luo extremely well.

Although the Luo family has always pursued fairness, and since entering the Han Dynasty, he has had an attitude of attacking the powerful families, but he is not the kind of cruel official who must uproot the powerful families.

Because the Luo family was quite pragmatic. When Luo Wengong reformed, he compromised with the great nobles and slave owners. During Luo Xuangong's reform, he attacked some great princes and compromised with other great princes. These were all pragmatic manifestations.

The foundation of the existence of aristocratic families is currently difficult to destroy, so what Luo wants has changed. As long as these aristocratic families ensure that their atmosphere is upward, their values ​​​​are correct, and they can leave a path for the bottom to rise.

In other words, you are from a wealthy family and were born rich. This is your blessing. Then be a good person with high moral standards and don’t rely on your family background to do those bullshit things. That’s enough. It’s not difficult. .

Moreover, the Luo family is quite nostalgic for old friendships. It is not the kind of selfless saint family. Generally speaking, as long as they don't do anything excessive, the Luo family will give their old friends a decent ending.

Since these Wujun nobles have chosen to trust Luo Chu, Luo Chu will not let them suffer a particularly big loss as long as they do not engage in frivolous operations in the future.

When Luo Chu heard Gu Yong's words, he glanced at the other heads of Wujun's wealthy families, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. If possible, he was still unwilling to leave Jiangdong. Standing on this land, he There is a rather peaceful feeling.

After the Wujun nobles expressed their stance, Luo Chu knew that it was time for him to express his stance.

His expression was very relaxed, but his eyes and voice were very serious as he said: "Chu has something to say that he wants to take advantage of.

Is there anyone in this world who takes the initiative to recruit talented people to his own detriment?

Throughout the history of 300 years, we have never seen such a situation.

A hundred years later in the Han Dynasty, most nobles were entrenched in counties and counties. No nobles were willing to leave to other places unless they had to. What was the reason for this?

Because leaving home is despicable!
But how many scholars survived the chaos in the Central Plains, destroyed their families, and fled the war?

Some of these scholars live in Jiangdong, and some live in Jingzhou, waiting for the emergence of the Ming Dynasty. I got a scholar named Zhuge Jin a few days ago.

He is a descendant of the Zhuge family from Langya County in Xuzhou. He went to Jiangdong to study before, but he did not return to Xuzhou because of the war, so he lived in Jiangdong.

This Zhuge Jin has great talents, whether it is his ability to deal with people or his ability to conduct things, he is the best choice.

Some time ago, my father-in-law told me that in Lujiang County, there is a descendant of the Hope clan whose surname is Zhou Mingyu and whose given name is Gongjin. He is also a very talented person and is a rare romantic figure in Jiangdong.

I was surprised and said: "Since there is such a romantic figure, why not recruit him into Wu County?"Wujun is the essence of Yangzhou, and the six surnames of Wujun are the crown of Jiangdong scholars. If an olive branch is extended, wouldn't anyone be willing to accept it? '

Zhou Yu was a talented person from Yangzhou, and Zhuge Jin was a talented person who came from exile. How many such people are there in Jiangdong?

Let these virtuous people wander among the mountains and rivers east of the Yangtze River without being able to use them to their full potential. When people like Sun Jian come to attack, they will shout, "What can we do about it?"
If things go on like this, it will just be the strong man who crosses the river and becomes the master of Jiangdong.

How will the Jiangdong gentry deal with themselves at that time?
Those who persist will definitely be eliminated from the world.

Now that all the family heads have made their choices, Chu will then issue a recruitment order to the entire Jiangdong.

This will be the most correct decision you have ever made, bar none. "

Gu Yong and others all looked a little ashamed. Luo Chu was a young man who had not yet been crowned, but he had already seen so clearly. Gu Yong was silent for a moment and then asked: "Master, I don't know how to recruit talents." Recruiting talents?"

Although they want to recruit talents, how to recruit them is still a very big problem. Recruitment orders represent a lot of personnel changes. Although they have decided to transfer benefits, how much is a very important thing.

If the bleeding is too great this time, there is no telling whether there will be enough resources to deal with the bleeding next time.

Of course Luo Chu knew this. He actually had a plan in his mind and said loudly: "The main purpose of recruiting talents this time is to recruit those who are truly talented. It is to select the best from the best, the best from the best, and the martial arts." If you want to be the enemy of thousands of people, you need to be a prime minister dressed in white.

As for the grassroots officials, they will still follow the old system. I hope you all can unite as one. After all, changing the grassroots officials is something I am unwilling to do. "

After hearing Luo Chu's words, everyone finally felt relieved. If they just want to recruit talented people, the impact on them will not be too big.

Everyone discussed some more, and then left here together. After everyone left Luo Chu's mansion, they did not separate, but gathered together again and sighed.

Before Qiao Wei left in the carriage, he said with a smile: "Young Master Chu is the son-in-law of my Qiao family. If Young Master Chu is the lord of Jiangdong, the Qiao family is a relative.

The six major families are connected by the same spirit. As long as you have outstanding children in your family, they will naturally be able to join Young Master Chu and occupy high positions in Jiangdong. What do you have to worry about?

Instead of worrying about these things, it is better to educate the children of the clan. If they have talents, cultivate them well. Wouldn't it be wonderful to become generals and prime ministers in the future?

If they have no talent, then train their character. Mr. Chu was born in the Luo family and attached great importance to virtue. If he has excellent virtue, he may not have the opportunity to become an official.

As Mr. Chu said, this is our opportunity. "After that, he boarded the carriage and left, leaving the remaining people to react. The head of the Lu family boarded the carriage and prepared to go back to the family to teach the children. The other people also reacted and got on the carriage one after another and left. Here, prepare for the next changes.

In Luo Mansion, Luo Chu sat quietly in the hall. Xiao Qiao saw that his father and everyone had left, so he walked out of the back courtyard and sat quietly next to Luo Chu. Luo Chu sniffed the smell coming from Xiao Qiao. Waves of refreshing fragrance came, and my mind became clear and empty again.

The irritability and pressure caused by Sun Jian these days gradually dissipated. He turned his head and looked at Xiao Qiao, who was as gentle as spring water. He stretched out his hand to hold the weak and boneless catkin. He couldn't help but sigh: "Everything in this world is so complicated and complicated. , it’s really annoying.

If I could get a blessed land in heaven, I would just indulge in spending time together and fly together, and no longer care about the mundane affairs of this world. "

Xiao Qiao had a gentle smile on her face. After spending this year with Luo Chu, she had a deep understanding of the young man in front of her who was only slightly older than her.

This is a rather young and mature hero, but deep down he always pretends to want to live in seclusion among the mountains and rivers. He has a way of governing the world, and he also fights in the military without permission, but what he really likes is Taoism. Even the metaphysics of the immortal family is quite involved in the world of Buddhism. He is a character with extreme contradictions.

Whenever he handles government and military affairs for a little too long, he will become infinitely agitated, and then his mood will sink. Only the beautiful landscape paintings of Jiangdong and his gentle and gentle company can alleviate this symptom.

She held Luo Chu's hand with her backhand and rubbed it, easing the fatigue in Luo Chu's heart, and said softly: "My dear, isn't this the case in this world?
Shuang'er once heard the story of the man who stood tall with the sky and the earth. When the heaven and the earth collapsed, the man who was as high as the sky saved all the people in the world.

Now my beloved, isn’t that the kind of person you are?
Millions of people throughout Jiangdong are relying on you. My father often tells Shuang'er that you are a great hero, and Shuang'er thinks so too.

Shuang'er heard that the real man's ambition is higher than Mount Tai and vaster than the East China Sea. He wants to make the universe move for him.

Compared to such an ambition, what is the so-called gentle countryside?

Shuang'er just has some looks, and her contribution to the world may not be as valuable to Jiangdong as your hair. If your husband slacks off because of Shuang'er, isn't it Shuang'er's fault? "

Luo Chu let go of Xiao Qiao's catkins and laughed softly: "Shuang'er, go get the harp and flute. Come and play the harp. Let the harp and flute play a song together to express what's in your heart."

Xiao Qiao couldn't help but feel happy when she saw that the worries in Luo Chu's brows gradually dissipated. She was even more surprised when she heard that Luo Chu wanted to play the harp. She loved playing the harp and flute with Luo Chu the most.

……

Luo Chu acted quickly, and the recruitment order was quickly announced from the mansion. It spread throughout Wu County immediately, and then Wu County, and then quickly spread to the surrounding counties. In Wu County Six With the active cooperation of the surnames, these recruitment orders were announced more thoroughly in at least Wu County, Kuaiji County and Danyang County.

As for Jiujiang County, Lujiang County and Yuzhang County, the spread of this recruitment order is also better than expected. At least the nobles and poor families in these prefectures and counties have received this recruitment order, which is quite significant. It's incredible.

Among the nobles, they mainly cultivate talents who can serve as generals and prime ministers, while ordinary powerful landowners are more likely to be generals.

Luo Chu did not send this recruitment order in the tone of the six surnames of Wu County, because that would not be effective. He sent the summons to the entire Yangzhou in the tone of the Lord of Jiangdong.

"I am not originally from Jiangdong, I have never been crowned, I am just an ordinary young man in Zhaocheng.

Because some of the achievements of my ancestors were trusted by some respected elders, they jointly recommended me to do some simple jobs, and even recommended me as a Yangzhou shepherd.

Only a few days after arriving in Jiangdong, I received a grand welcome from the scholars of Jiangdong. How could this not make me frightened?
I am deeply afraid that I will not be able to make some achievements, and then let Jiangdong and his father feel disappointed.

When I came to Jiangdong for a short time, I didn't say a word because I was worried that I would do something wrong because I didn't understand. Now that I have been in Jiangdong for a little longer, I finally have something to say to the wise men of Jiangdong.

Jiangdong is beautiful, and the scenery and people are all unique and elegant. This is what I have seen. The war in the Central Plains, Jiangdong survived, what a blessing it is?

I came to Jiangdong and saw the beautiful scenery here. I only hope that Jiangdong will always be peaceful and peaceful and not participate in the raging war.

But how difficult is it?
I don’t know how many tigers, leopards, and jackals are trying to swallow Jiangdong. I thought about it, where in the world can there be a reason to pray for stability while holding the blade in someone else’s hand?
Only by holding a sharp sword can peace be achieved; by having generals who can fight can a country be stable; by making good use of civil servants who govern the country, the world will not be in chaos.

If you want Jiangdong to settle down, you must need such talents. Now I am here to shout to Jiangdong.

Are there any scholars from other states living in Jiangdong?

This may be the fate given by God to you and Jiangdong. I once heard that those who are officials in other places and hold high positions are all important ministers who can leave their names in history. Are there any such important ministers in Jiangdong now?

The noble families in Jiangdong are willing to treat you scholars kindly and give you food, clothing, wealth and dignity.

Are there any scholars who are not in Wu County?
Nowadays, among the thirteen states in the world, there is no such thing as a state pastor.

In the past, the world regarded the county as the country and the county as the home. Except for the five surnames and seven families, all the great families regarded the county as their prestige. But hasn't the situation changed greatly now?

The state shepherd is in charge of all military and political powers. Aren't the counties just like brothers?

If the divisions were based on counties, wouldn't Yangzhou's power be dispersed?

This must be bad.

Therefore, I hereby issue this letter to summon the heroes of Yangzhou in Wu County and the heroic people living in Yangzhou. As long as you feel that you have the ability to bring peace to the world, and the talent to bring peace to the world, Please also come to Wu County.

I'm here waiting for your arrival.

I hope that I can grant you a noble status, I hope that I can get a wise man who can stabilize Jiangdong, I hope that I can get a prefect who can shepherd and guard a country, I hope that I can get the talents of a king who can coordinate a state.

According to the above standards, it was spread throughout all counties and counties in Yangzhou so that everyone knew about it. "

The recruitment order issued by Luo Chu in the tone of a Yangzhou shepherd instantly caused an uproar. From this letter, except for Luo Chu's welcome to the Wujun scholars at the beginning, no one could see the six surnames of Wujun. shadow.

However, this recruitment order was smoothly circulated among various prefectures and counties in Yangzhou, which meant that the six surnames of Wu County recognized this recruitment order.

What does this mean?
This means that Chu, the young master of the Luo family, has taken over the six surnames of Wu County, and the six surnames of Wu County have begun to transfer power to the shogunate that Mr. Chu is about to form!

If you enter the shogunate of Gongzi Chu at this time, you will be like a fish jumping over the dragon gate and a wild dragon transforming into a dragon!

At least in the Jiangdong region, he instantly became the top powerful person.

Especially those scholars living in Jiangdong area are waiting for such an opportunity.

I don't know how many people are waiting for a warlord who can suppress the Wujun gentry to appear. By virtue of their status as non-Yangzhou people, they will definitely be able to occupy high positions in the new regime.

But I never expected that this opportunity would turn out to be Luo's son!

This made everyone even more overjoyed. Although they didn't know why Luo Shizi took the initiative to become the leader of one party, it was not important anymore. What was important was to immediately seize the cherished position in the new shogunate.

In a town on a hill in Wu County, two scholars were looking at this recruitment order side by side, with expressions of joy and relief on their faces.

"Zibu!"

"Zigang!"

The two of them called each other names, then looked at each other, smiled, and said in unison: "The opportunity has come, it's time to go out and show off your skills."

Zhang Hong said with emotion: "The Qiao family has such a profound background that they were able to invite a young master of the Luo family to Jiangdong to dominate the situation. If it weren't for this young master of the Luo family, Chu, these Wujun nobles would all be the turtles in the urn. We suffered heavy losses and finally had to cooperate with Sun Jian.”

Zhang Zhao nodded in approval and said: "Yes, I never expected that the situation in Jiangdong would be reorganized like this. Our plans have also changed, and we have to leave our official positions in advance."

These two people were Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong who came to Jiangdong from Xuzhou to escape the war. After they came to Jiangdong, because they were both from Xuzhou and both had great talents, they hit it off and lived together in seclusion in Wu County. Among towns.

Although they live in seclusion, the two of them are still somewhat famous. Many people in Wu County know that Er Zhang is talented, but there was no room for him to display it before.

Originally, the two of them planned to continue raising their hopes, then wait for Sun Jian to invade Jiangdong, and help Sun Jian pacify Jiangdong at the critical moment.

However, the appearance of Luo Chu made their plan go bankrupt. Now that they saw Luo Chu issuing a recruitment order, they temporarily decided to go to Luo Chu's shogunate to fight against Sun Jian and help Luo Chu stabilize Jiangdong.

Most of these scholars living in Jiangdong were entrenched in Wu County, and the scholars in other counties in Yangzhou responded even more to this recruitment order.

Going to Wujun to control Yangzhou is the dream of every Yangzhou scholar. The city of Gusu in Wujun represents the undisputed orthodoxy of the entire Jiangdong for 1000 years.

That is an ancient city that has never suffered major damage since Wu Wuhou Qingji!

In Lujiang County.

When Zhou Yu saw this order to recruit talents, his face was extremely tangled. He didn't know whether he should go to Wu Commandery. Of course he knew that Prince Chu was recruiting talents to resist Sun Jian.

He and Sun Ce, Sun Jian's son, were good friends at first sight, which made him very entangled. From his true heart, he wanted to go to Wu County. He was too confident in his own ability. , the wise ministers of ancient times were nothing more than this.

But his loyalty to Sun Ce made him unwilling to do so. After all, it was very likely that he would face Sun Ce on the battlefield.

He was struggling with his servants here and hurried in to report: "Young Master, Mr. Zijing has come to pay his respects."

"Zijing?"

Zhou Yu was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he realized why Lu Su came to visit him at this time. It must be because of this recruitment order.

Zhou Yu's mind telegraphed: "Please come in quickly."

----

The Lord of Chu, Jiangdong, inspected the famous scholars and promoted sages, but he felt that it was not enough. Day and night, he was worried about the talents left in the wilderness, so he issued a recruitment order, seeking wise and resourceful people who could serve as kings and assistants. There were thousands of people in Wujun County. Chu laughed and said: "All the heroes on the left side of the Yangtze River have fallen into my trap!" - "Book of Wu: Yuzhang County Duke Family"
