Late at night, in the bright inner hall of the prefecture of the county, Li Ru brought three men to Yuan Xi, two of whom were wearing crowns and hats, red official uniforms, and exuded a sense of official power. As for the other one, she was wearing white scholarly clothes, her clothes were a little worn, but her eyes were bright and she had a spirit.

"Young Master, these are the three talents recommended by Liang Ju," Li Ruhui reported.

"Okay" Yuan Xi smiled and nodded, putting down the bamboo slips in her hand.

"Wang Shu, the chief of the prefect's palace, pay homage to the prince"

"Chen Ji, the county magistrate of Liangxiang, pay homage to the young master"

"Lu Yu from the county, pay homage to the prince"

After the three of them bowed, Li Ru pointed at Lu Yu and said, "Report to the youngest son of the late Lu Zhi, Lu Zhonglang."

"What" Yuan Xi, who hadn't cared about it at first, stood up in surprise. How could Lu Zhi's youngest son be here?

"Reported to the young master, Lu Zhonglang is both civil and military, and has reflected Confucian classics. He quelled the barbarian turmoil and quelled the Yellow Turban Rebellion. He made outstanding achievements. However, because Dong Zhuo intended to depose the young emperor Liu Bian and support the King of Chenliu Liu Xie as the emperor, he summoned all civil and military officials to discuss. At that time, no one dared to speak out, but only Lu Zhonglang stood up and opposed it. Dong Zhuo was furious and ordered Lu Zhi to be executed. Fortunately, Cai Yong and others pleaded for him and were exempted from death. However, they were still dismissed from official positions and sent to the land. Since then, they have not been involved in the world. They died of illness seven years ago, leaving behind a widow.

The young man is studious, and values ​​friendship and righteousness. He supports the entire Lu family with his own strength. His character and kindness and filial piety made Liang admire him, so Liang brought him over." Li Ru's eyes were a little ashamed. When he talked about Dong Zhuo, his face was even more strange. Others may not know about this matter, but he was involved and was a planner. He even sent someone to chase Lu Yu, trying to eliminate the roots. This time he brought Lu Yu over, because the other party was indeed talented, and also hoped to compensate for his actions against the loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.

"Mr. Liang, I'm too rewarded," Lu Yu said humbly. He has been staying in Zhujun since he was a child, and his father passed away when he was young, so he had never met Li Ru, otherwise he would have to draw his sword immediately.

A golden light flashed in Yuan Xi's eyes, and the real dragon eye opened instantly.

"Lu Yu, loyalty value is 45, intelligence value is 79, and force value is 61"

Judging from the data, he is actually full of civil and military affairs. This martial artist should lead troops. It is a good idea that he is a descendant of Lu Zhi and another generation of Confucian generals!

Yuan Xi walked slowly to Lu Yu, looked at his shabby clothes, and said with some confusion in his eyes: "Zi Family, I remember Gongsun Zan is Lu Zhonglang's disciple! How could you live so hard?"

Although Yuan Xi didn't know Lu Zhi's specific contributions, he seemed to remember that Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan were both disciples of Lu Zhi. As the governor of Youzhou, why didn't Gongsun Zan take care of Lu Zhi's descendants?

Lu Yu smiled bitterly, "This is my father's will. He said that although Gongsun Zan is brave and persevering, he is too killer, short-sighted and unwilling tolerate others, he is definitely not a match for Yuan Gong, so we should not participate in the Lu family. Gongsun Zan is very angry because of this. Although he did not make things difficult, he has never given him a good face. However, in the present, his father's vision is correct."

Yuan Xi nodded and said gently: "Zi Family, you have suffered."

"Young Master is serious," Lu Yu said hurriedly.

"Don't call me young master. Lu Zhonglang has always been admired by Xi, and his father has praised him many times. Even grandfather and the others are good friends with Lu Zhonglang. From now on, you can call me second brother." Yuan Xi said directly...

"This!" Lu Yu was shocked. Although he was moved, how could the Lu family be compared with the Yuan family now be completely different from the same level.

"Zi family, don't be restrained. You are very good at talented and beautiful. What's more, you and the young master's family are old friends, so call me!" Li Ru smiled. If Lu Zhi hadn't been too loyal to the great man, he wouldn't have let Dong Zhuo do this.

After Lu Yuping recovered his mood, he looked at Yuan Xi and was moved and said, "Second Brother"

"Haha, okay" Yuan Xi laughed happily. Chen Ji and Wang Shu's expression suddenly became a little dim. Yuan Xi attached so much importance to Lu Yu, it seemed that they had no hope for the position of prefect.

"Zi Family, don't participate in this prefect," Yuan Xi said suddenly.

"Ah!" Lu Yu was shocked, and the other two showed excitement.

"Second brother, I" Lu Yu was a little anxious.

"Listen to me, it's a waste of your talent to be a mere prefect. You should follow me to Su County and command the ten counties of Youzhou with the governor's mansion." Yuan Xi said with a smile.

Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, then knelt on the ground with emotion, "Mr. Xie"

"Get up quickly, didn't you say it? Call me the second brother." Yuan Xi smiled and helped Lu Yu up, and said softly: "Zi Family, I will start tomorrow. Time is a bit tight. You can go back and prepare."

"promise!"

"Liu Quan" Yuan Xi shouted.

"Young Master" Liu Quan ran in.

"Go and get one hundred gold to Zi's family and let him take it back, Yuan Xi ordered.

"Second brother, this is not possible!" Lu Yu said anxiously.

"If your family is unstable, how can you make peace of mind? You don't have to say too much, just treat your second brother as a gift to you," Yuan Xi said seriously.

Tears suddenly appeared in Lu Yu's eyes. Since Lu Zhi's death, their Lu family has completely declined, and no one has ever treated him so well.

"Second Brother Xie" Lu Yu gave a deep gift thankfully, and his loyalty was almost seventy-six in an instant.

Yuan Xi smiled with satisfaction. When Liu Quan took Lu Yu away, his eyes looked at Wang Shu and Chen Ji again. Their intelligence and loyalty values ​​were above 60, and there was no difference between the winner and loser.

"You are all selected by the gentleman from all levels of the county, so I will ask a question, how do you plan to govern Zhuxian? Wang Shu, you are the chief minister and the first person under the prefect, please tell me first."

"Yes, the young master" Wang Shu stood up calmly and said: "Zhijun County is adjacent to Jizhou, and is separated from foreign tribes by Shanggu County and Dai County. There are fewer foreign tribes, and the lives of the people are still quite stable. The officials believed that after these battles between the lord and Gongsun Zan, the policy of rest with the people should be adopted, encourage farming, encourage industry and commerce, and at the same time, tax exemptions, streamline the institutions within the county, reduce fiscal expenditures, and accumulate capital for the future use of the young master."

Yuan Xi nodded and smiled and said, "Okay, not bad."

A flash of excitement flashed in Wang Shu's eyes and slowly retreated. Yuan Xi looked at Liangxiang County Magistrate Chen Ji and said gently: "Chen County Magistrate, tell me."

After Chen Ji stood up, he gave a gift first, and then said seriously: "Mr. Changshi is right, but Ji thought that besides these, there are two other points that are very important."

Yuan Xi's eyes flashed and he said, "Which two points?"

"First, it is necessary to cultivate the people by counties, but the officials thought that they still needed to stockpile food, grass and weapons in Liangxiang to prevent any changes."

"Why?" Yuan Xi had no expression on his face, but Li Ru on the side did show a slight smile.

"Because Liangxiang County, which was in the Xiaguan, was just close to Shanggu County, and the people coming from there seemed to be only in their hearts, Yufu Prefect, Hotan Yu, Chief Secretary." Chen Ji stopped and said nothing more.

A surprise flashed across Yuan Xi's face. Chen Ji actually had this kind of vision and continued, "What about the second point?"

"The second point is that the officials think that Youzhou belongs to the young master, and they need to spread this point so that the people can appreciate the virtues of the young master and completely recognize the young master," Chen Ji said softly.

Yuan Xi finally laughed and looked at Chen Ji and said, "You are not bad, very good, hahaha."

Li Ru nodded with satisfaction. Even Wang Shu on the side had a dull face, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, because Chen Ji's words not only pointed out what needed to be prevented for Yuan Xi, but also placed his position very low and attributed all the credit to Yuan Xi.
