Chapter 305 Appointment and Removal of Officials

Three days later, the grand event came as scheduled. It was said that the grand event was just a gathering of officials and families in various counties in Jingzhou. Jingzhou families who had not arrived in three days also arrived one after another. Some families even took three days and three nights to catch up with the grand event.

This grand event was held in the state pastoral mansion. The prestige of Liu Biao in Jingzhou is unmatched, and the state pastoral mansion is the most suitable.

On the morning of the third day, Liu Qi got on the carriage and went to the state pastoral house. Zhuge Liang and others had already gone ahead to deal with the officials and families of each county.

Just yesterday, Du Xi, the emperor's son-in-law, had rushed to Xiangyang with the imperial edict. At this time, Jia Xu was entertained. Jia Xu and Du Xi also met several times and were familiar with each other.

"Lord, the state pastoral government has arrived."

Just as Liu Qi was meditating, Wang Yi's voice came in.

Liu Qi opened the door and saw a long dragon of carriages outside the state pastoral mansion for a day. At this time, these carriages were close to the roadside as far as possible to get out of the road, but there was an endless stream of carriages coming and going, and the state pastoral mansion was rarely crowded before.

Stepping into the house, the house was already full of high friends. People in gorgeous robes were talking to each other. At this time, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were being sent in the crowd and chatting enthusiastically with these officials and patriarchs.

At the moment when Liu Qi stepped into the house, someone noticed that Liu Qi, as the future owner of Jingzhou, rarely appeared, but Liu Qi, who was decisive, was already unknown and known in Xiangyang at this time. Portraits of Liu Qi have been collected among these families for a long time, so as soon as Liu Qi came in, everyone's eyes brushed over.

"Lord." Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others saw Liu Qi coming and gathered one by one.

Liu Qi nodded and came to the main seat surrounded by several people. Today, there are two main seats, one is Liu Qi's and the other is Liu Biao's. Although Liu Biao may not come forward, Zhuge Liang and others still prepared seats for him.

"I've met the master (adult)."

As soon as Liu Qi sat down, the crowd bowed and saluted, but the name was a little messy.

Liu Qi waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and saw Zhuge Liang come forward and said, "My lord, the messenger of the emperor has arrived outside the door."

"Welcome the messenger of the Son of Heaven with me."

Liu Qi took a look at the middle man standing up a few steps to greet him, and the people in the courtyard also stood up solemnly to show respect.

In a short time, I saw Du Xi coming in accompanied by Jia Xu. Behind Du Xi, there were also two palace guards holding the imperial edict and followed Du Xi closely.

"Liu Qi took the order!"

Du Xi stepped in front of Liu Qi and looked around the crowd and shouted loudly.

With the loud sound of Du Xi, the people around him bent their knees and knelt down one after another, and Zhuge Liang had already prepared cushions, incense candles and other things. Du Xi came around and read the holy edict of the guard a few minutes before he came to the tall case. From beginning to end, Liu Qi worshipped for Zeng, only bowed slightly when Du Xi read the edict, and Du Xi, who read the imperial edict aloud, turned a deaf ear.

With the completion of the two imperial edicts, Liu Qi took the opportunity to get up and receive the imperial edict from Du Xi: "Thank you for your hard work. Today's banquet can just pick up the wind and wash the dust for the captain."

"The kindness of Marquis Minyang is in my heart, but if it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, please atone for the Marquis of Minyang." Du Xi has also heard about this party in Jingzhou, and he will not stay here ignorantly.

"Ha ha, in that case, Wen and you go to see off the captain." Liu Qi looked at Jia Xu and said.

"No." Jia Xu nodded and left with Du Xi.

As soon as Du Xi left, Zhuge Liang and others got up and bowed and saluted, "Congratulations, my lord."

And the others also saluted, "Congratulations, prince."

"Please get up. Today is the prosperous day of my whole Jingzhou. Just drink as much as you like." Liu Qi was drunk when he raised the table, and the people below also drank all the water and wine in the glass.

After that, Liu Qi got up and left the courtyard and came to a hall. After a while, Zhuge Liang rushed here with the officials of each county.

"I have met the lord." Dozens of people bowed down one after another, divided into seats.

Liu Qi, who was on the main seat, looked at the people below. At this time, he knew most of the officials above the hall. Only two of them let him rush to the strange place. However, when he thought about it, Liu Qi understood the identity of these two people. There was no one else except Liu Du, the eunuch of Lingling County, and his general Xing Daorong.

"Mama Liang was ordered to be the governor of Jiangxia, in charge of Jiangxia's government affairs, and the Feilong Army and Jiangxia's garrison will guard Jiangxia together for the time being." Liu Qi looked at Ma Liangdao. Ma Liang's time in Jiangxia is not short, and Jiang Xia's post has always been vacant. Ma Liangzhi is enough to be qualified for Jiangxia's position.

"Thank you, Lord." Ma Liang was shocked all over and bowed. He followed Liu Qi relatively early and knew that Liu Qi would never appoint only one county magistrate this time.

Sure enough, Liu Qi then looked at Pang Tong and said, "I ordered Wei Yan to be the governor of Nanyang, guard Wancheng and the surrounding counties, and guard against Cao Cao Ren and Cao Chun."

Wei Yan was no longer there, but Zhuge Liang beside him had written the spy in an instant and immediately ordered someone to send it out.

After appointing Wei Yan, Liu Qi did not stop and continued to say, "I ordered Wang Can to wait for the opportunity to destroy the Jingnan barbarians for the guard of Wuling."

In the past two days, Zhuge Liang told him that Wang Can is a talent. Although he is a little talented to be a county magistrate, the whole Jingzhou county magistrate is already a high-ranking man.

"I ordered Zhao to be the governor of Guiyang!"

"My life is the governor of Zhangling!"

"I ordered Yi to be the meritorious Cao of Jingzhou!"

"Sing Zhuge Liang to be the long history of Xiangyang, the military division of the Flying Dragon Army."

"Ming Pang Tong is the long history of Zhangling, the military division of the Flying Tiger Army."

"I ordered Xu Shu to be the governor of Nanjun and stay in Xiangyang."

.........................................................................

After a series of orders, everyone in the whole hall held their breath and listened carefully. It was not until Liu Qi's last sentence that the rest of the officials were in the original position, and everyone was relieved.

For this series of names, everyone is quite familiar with Kuai Yue and other old ministers. Originally, they thought that Liu Qi would suddenly replace these old ministers in Jingzhou. Unexpectedly, there were so many old ministers, and even a staff like Wang Can jumped into a county magistrate.

However, Liu Qi's appointment still set off a turbulent wave in the hearts of everyone. At this time, there are so many official appointments, and most of them are people who have only recently made some statements. You can imagine how much waves this official's appointment will be caused in the whole Jingzhou if it is spread.

After Liu Qi finished speaking, he took a look at the crowd and said, "Send the Flying Dragon Army to be hired. Wang Wei of the Flying Tiger Army will temporarily step down as the commander, and the two armies will be under the command of the two armies for the time being."

"Whey!"

As soon as Liu Qi finished speaking, everyone in the hall looked up at Liu Qi with a look of horror. You should know that the prestige of Wang Wei and Wenpin in the whole Jingzhou is not Zhuge Liang. Pang Tong and other people who have only begun to be famous in the past few months can compare. What is Liu Qi doing with so much? Is he going to make two generals?

Everyone was still wondering, and Liu Qi's order was conveyed again.

"From now on, the Xuanwu Army will be formed, and the General Wenpin will be commanded. In three months, 50,000 Xuanwu Army must be formed. From now on, the Rosefinch Army will be formed, and the general Wang Wei will be ordered to be the leader. 50,000 soldiers and horses will be transferred from each county to complete the formation within three months.

Xuanwu Army? Rosefinch Army?

Hearing Liu Qi's words, everyone was stunned. It turned out that Liu Qi did not want to hire Wenpin and Wang Wei, but to train the new army. But then everyone was a little confused. What's going on with the Xuanwu Army and the Rosefinch Army? Since a new army is to be formed, why not re-recruited? Why should we draw troops from each county? Doesn't it weaken the strength of each county? If it encounters the invasion of Jiangdong again, isn't it digging its own grave?

However, at this time, everyone knew that since Liu Qi had ordered, he would not change the order again. Therefore, although there was some doubts in everyone's hearts, there was no objection.

Compared with the surprise of everyone, Zhuge Liang and others are like a mirror. On the one hand, Liu Qi did this to weaken the power of the counties. On the other hand, he formed these soldiers and horses into a new army. Only then can he pull out the soldiers and horses to attack Hanzhong. It is impossible for Jingzhou to defend the Flying Dragon Army and the Flying Tiger Army.

Nowadays, the princes of the whole world, whether it is Cao Cao Yuan Shao or Jiangdong Sun Ce, are constantly expanding the force Jingzhou. If they don't keep up with the pace, they will be left sooner or later.

And this is only the beginning, and a series of measures in Jingzhou will be gradually implemented. Now Yiji is preparing to build a recruitment hall, which can be opened in a few days. At that time, it will attract a steady stream of talents for Jingzhou.

And Xiangyang Academy will also be successfully built within two months, and the dean is Pang Degong. As for Sima Hui and Song Zhongzi, Liu Qi will build two colleges in Wancheng and Jiangxia respectively to attract talents from all over the world for Jingzhou.

..................................................................................

"What? Wang Can of the Wang family turned out to be the new Wuling Taishou?

"What is this Xuanwu Army and the Rosefinch Army? Can't Lord Zhou Mu go to war with the outside world?

"What's wrong with this Xiangyang Academy? Can't those civilians and the sons of the Jingzhou family study together?

When Liu Qi's order spread, the heads of various families in the state pastoral government have been talking about it. This series of changes can be said to be something that have not happened in Jingzhou for more than ten years. Books have always been regarded as the treasure of the inheritance of the family, but now Liu Qi actually wants to build an academy, but the books that build the college are It should be copied from the collections of various families.

This makes these patriarchs who regard books as family inheritance not shocked, and Liu Qi has ordered the abolition of the channels for the children of the family to directly hold official positions in the future. Although it has not been said how to select officials in the future, these patriarchs can feel that it must be related to this college.

The most important thing is that every family in Jingzhou has to hand in ten transcripts of books within ten days. Compared with the appointment of those officials, the matter of this college puts these families under more pressure.
