With the release of the letter of the country, Liu Tao was not busy starting the battle immediately. While the soldiers gathered, they were also waiting for the arrival of the Southern Xiongnu Shanyu, intending to negotiate the matter first and then set off.

At the same time, through the channels of the Jinyiwei Secret Guard, there are rumors everywhere that as long as the voluntary surrender before the war begins, civil servants can be retained through a special, that is, an imperial examination without age restrictions; military generals are tested and hired according to their actual abilities.

The rumor that this news was initially considered was spread, but more and more people spread it so it is difficult to regard it as a rumor.

So in a very short time, the news was passed to the entire Jin and Yan states, and officials from all counties and counties...

In Dai County, Fu Rui was over fifty years old. His eldest son Fu Yun was in Yuan Shao's place and communicated with him in private, hoping that he would secretly serve Jin State. Fu Rui was old and had no ambitions, so he naturally wanted to find a way out for his two sons.

Just today, Fu Yun came over again, still representing Yuan Shao. The meaning was very clear, that is, when the Xianbei people went south, they opened the Great Wall and put down the Xianbei people. They were reinforcements invited by Yuan Shao.

Fu Rui was in a dilemma, after all, he saw through Yuan Shao's thoughts.

On the surface, he was still the prefect of Yan State, and he took the initiative to open the city wall to put the Xianbei people in. The first thing that harmed was the interests and reputation of Yan State. Even if the Xianbei people went south as reinforcements, they would burn, kill, and robbery along the way, could they be less?

If Fu Rui does such a thing, then if it spreads, no matter what Yan Guo looks like, he will definitely be despised.

But as Fu Yun said, as long as you can defeat Liu Tao and break through his undefeated legend, everything is worth it. The world is afraid that Liu Tao, a "child of the immortal family", has been too long. If this title is not broken, there is no need to continue fighting and surrender directly.

"Father, Your Majesty said that this time the matter is completed, you can arrange for you to work in Qingzhou. In a few years, the news will subside, and you will be transferred back to serve as the Third Duke." Fu Yun said carefully.

"Then what position he promised to give you?" Fu Rui looked at Fu Yun, as if he had seen through him at first glance.

"Your Majesty didn't say that, but Junshi Xu hinted that Your Majesty would not treat me badly." Fu Yun replied quickly.

Currently, Fu Yun is just a yellow-sect minister, so I can only say that this position is a bit useless. Because of this, Fu Yun should be very promoted. Xu You only needed a little hint and naturally came to find his father.

In fact, Xu You made no promises, and Yuan Shao made no promises either. It would be okay to say that everything went well, and naturally he would not forget the heroes. If you encounter problems, then needless to say, Fu Rui would definitely be pushed out, and Fu Yun would not please him.

"Father, since that's the case, why don't you consider serving Your Majesty?" Another figure came out behind the screen, but Fu Xun, who came over earlier.

Originally, they came with the people from Shuijing Academy, but they accidentally passed the imperial examination. They originally wanted to say that they were having fun and trying their own level, but who knew that the court said that whoever passed the examination and left directly, would never be allowed to take the imperial examination in the future.

Fu Xun finally stayed. He said that there was a month off and he had nothing to do and planned to take office directly.

Who knew that the court was going to start a siege and attack Dai County, and then he remembered that his father was the prefect of Dai County, so he hurried over and tried to convince his father to surrender to the Han Dynasty.

"Second brother? Why are you here?" Fu Yun was a little alert when he saw Fu Xun's happy thing.

"My brother Yu went to Dahan to participate in the imperial examination. He passed the second exam and was appointed as the county magistrate of Qiao County..." Fu Xun had to tell his situation, "I originally planned to take office, but who knew that the Han Dynasty was going to go to war with Yan Han and Jin State. Thinking of his father in Dai County, he hurried over."

"The Han Dynasty treated scholars so harshly, and would rather support the common people as officials than value virtuous people. In the long run, there will probably be only a few children from all families who can become officials. Similarly, you, my gentry will never have a chance to make a comeback!" Fu Yun immediately persuaded him, "The Emperor of Jin, who is sympathetic to our scholars, is a truly benevolent king, and he will win the world! Brother, why not go to Yecheng with me, you can find a single official and half position for you..."

"Brother, the times have changed!" Fu Xun shook his head, "And my gentry and wealthy families have more land and family property. Unlike the common people, they need to work and study. As long as we invest enough and the children in the clan are willing to learn and make progress, the number of people who will eventually become officials will not change."

The only result of the imperial examination system is that the selected officials are at least genuinely talented and knowledgeable, rather than gaining attention and gaining fame, and then they can elect officials as officials.

In the future, it would be equivalent to canceling the civil service examination. Among the Internet celebrities and traffic stars, one group will be selected to be a part of the central government for two years and then arrange the work in detail. Who else is still focused on studying? Thinking about how to become an Internet celebrity!

People are different from others. Officials are born with rich background. Family education, economics and other things are definitely better than ordinary people.

So at least most of the people who can become officials in the end are children of officials, and at least they are rich families. But at least, those who can go up have some talent and talent. And at least they give ordinary people a relatively fair opportunity to get ahead.

It's OK to do this, I really can't ask for anything...

"In other words, as long as Liu Tao is willing to study hard and pass the imperial examination, he can still become an official. On the contrary, it will be difficult for those who are sensational to make a name for themselves, right?" Fu Yun did not say anything, and Fu Rui asked first.

"Yes, and I heard that for officials from the six ministries and officials above the prefecture can embrace a child. They cannot directly serve as officials, but can enter a special college to study. At the same time, they can get a certain bonus when they are in the imperial examination." Fu Xun replied.

To this extent, if you still fail the exam, it is not that others don’t give you opportunities, but that you are not doing your best.

"As a matter of fact, you should not believe everything in the market..." Fu Rui sighed and then looked at Fu Yun, "I can't control you, but I am a Han minister and the prefect of the Dai County appointed by the Han Dynasty!"

This great Han Dynasty was not the Yan Han Dynasty, but the great Han Dynasty during the Liu Hong period. Wang Ze moved from the prefect of Dai County to the prefect of Yanmen, and he was his successor, and in this position, he witnessed the division of the great Han Dynasty.

It was Liu Yu at the beginning, and at the same time, Liu Tao did make trouble, so he remained neutral. Now it is Liu Bei, who is also a relative of the Han Dynasty, so he can continue to wait and see.

After all, when you are old, it doesn’t matter how much you are. It mainly depends on how much you can help your son. In fact, it’s nothing to really defect to Yuan Shao, as long as the benefits are enough.

But if you can help your son and fulfill your loyalty, Fu Rui is still shameless.

"Father!" Fu Yun didn't expect that his father actually planned to compete with Beihan.

"Go and tell the court's army and ask them to come and take over here quickly, otherwise Gongsun Zan would come." Fu Rui then looked at Fu Xun.

"Yes!" Fu Xun said goodbye and left immediately. His father's meaning was very simple. If Gongsun Zan came over, it would be useless even if he surrendered. The person who made the decision here was Gongsun Zan.

"When you go back, tell Yuan Shao that his father, uncle and uncle are both Han ministers. His grandfather and great-grandfather are also Han ministers." Fu Rui looked at Fu Yun, "In addition, if the great man really fights under Yecheng, don't show off and surrender directly!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Yun understood that his father had planned to suppress the future of the Fu family on the Northern Han.

No matter how reluctant he was, Fu Yun also understood that this was an unchangeable fact. Nowadays, scholars valued the family and country, and the family and the family were headed by the clan leader. Fu Rui was the clan leader, so he could decide the future of the Fu family.

As a clan member, he could only abide by it. He continued to be an official in Jin State just as a precaution.

If the Northern Han is not lucky and is destroyed, at least the Fu family and his lineage can continue... Just like Xun, Xun Chen is in Jin State, and even Yuan Shao has Xun Zheng there.

No matter who gets the world in the end, the Xun family in Yingchuan has at least one lineage that can be continued.

While Dai County is planning to surrender, Qingzhou is also planning a drastic change.

On this day, Zang Hong held a banquet and invited the general Zhu Ling, who was stationed in Qingzhou. This was the second day after the news was passed to Qingzhou.

"The elders are old..." After three rounds of wine, Zang Hong began to complain, "I stepped down from the office of the prefect of Zhongshan, saying that I planned to go to Jinyang to retire, and said that I was a Han minister."

Zang Hong's father was Zang Min, who was the prefect of Zhongshan at that time and had contact with Liu Tao.

This time, he said that he wanted to live a retirement life, but in fact he was an advice to Zang Hong that he was also a Han minister and should not serve Jin. Don’t say that loyalty and righteousness are not bothered, he should be loyal to the Han Dynasty, not Jin.

Zang Hong was helpless, let alone loyalty and righteousness, he was not loyal and filial, right? Dede, Yuan Shao promoted him, so he served Yuan Shao, which is where "righteousness" lies. But loyalty and filial piety are on his father's side, and there is nothing he can do about two to one!

"Zhu is also a Han official..." Zhu Ling had already roughly known what Zang Ba meant when he heard this, and said with a faint smile.

"Oh?" Zang Hong looked at Zhu Ling with some surprise.

"I will see a lot of people, but there is no such capable as His Majesty the Great Han Dynasty. This is the real wise master! Since you have met a real wise master, why not join him?" Zhu Ling replied, "No matter how well Yuan Shao said to the outside world, he is just a traitor. This fact will not change."

He paused, looked around and said, "I will communicate with the prefect sincerely. Those around him can be removed, right?"

"Showing ugly, showing ugly..." Zang Hong smiled embarrassedly and clapped his hands.

The swords and axes hid around them left one after another. According to the secret code, clapping hands means disbanding, but if it is throwing a cup, then you will go out as soon as possible and kill Zhu Ling.

If it weren't for this arrangement, how could Zang Hong tell the truth to Zhu Ling like this?

"So, you and I have the same idea, right?" Zhu Ling looked at Zang Hong.

"I said that I am a Han official." Zang Hong smiled at Zhu Ling.
