"Shopkeeper, come and have the latest issue of Hongdu Journal!"

"Okay!"

"It's money!"

"Guest officer, today's Hongdu Journal is all given away for free, no money is charged, please accept it!"

"What? I thought this benefit was gone for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be there today, so I'm welcome! ”

"Today's Hongdu Journal is free again!"

One pass ten, ten pass hundreds, one hundred pass thousands, this issue of Hongdu Journal is given away for free, the sensation that began to spread around, the thoughts of the descendants of Yan and Huang, free things, don't do it in vain, rush one by one, and want to get a copy.

"Hurry up and get it, the hand is fast, the hand is slow, if you go late, you will be finished!"

"Go, go!"

“……”

In half a day, Luoyang fell into a storm of Hongdu Journal.

"Phew!"

"I'll see how long you can lose money!"

"Hmph, Di Bao is knowledge, how can it be operated by such a coppery method, this Hongdu Journal is really difficult to get into the hall of elegance!"

“……”

Whether it is Confucianism Daily or Taixue Morning Post, they don't care much at this time, they just think that Hongdu Journal is making sales, but what they don't know is that this issue of Hongdu Journal has caused a bigger storm is the content.

"I don't know what the topic is today?"

"Should it be imperial court policy?"

"Maybe it's the Xiliang War?"

"I heard that the imperial court intends to improve the policy of entering the city, and it is being discussed, maybe this is what this issue is talking about!"

When I didn't get the Hongdu Journal, everyone was guessing, and then I couldn't wait to start opening the Hongdu Journal, wanting to prove the topic of my guess.

"What is this?"

"What a big headline, three words, already occupies a front!"

"Is this—a merit order?"

“……”

When countless people got this issue of Hongdu Journal, they found the title of the section that has occupied the vast majority of the front at first glance, and the title has only three words, three big characters of dragon flying and phoenix dancing - Seeking Talent.

"Merit Order?"

"Could it be that the article in this issue is a merit-seeking order?"

"Wouldn't this be a merit-seeking order issued by the imperial court?"

"Probably not, the imperial court still needs to issue a merit-seeking order?"

"Could it be the order of Qin Xiaogong back then, the order of seeking talent written by Qin Xiaogong back then, but the rhetoric is gorgeous, and countless people have responded to it, publish it, let us learn about it, it is also possible!"

"Probably!"

“……”

Countless groups of scholars began to discuss the title of the newspaper eagerly, and they were all attracted by the headline that occupied everyone's attention.

But as everyone took the newspaper and read it deeply, they found that this was a real order to seek talents.

Under the title, the rather charming prose was also read silently by some scholars, and the voice covered the teahouse and restaurant, so that many people could hear it with their own ears.

"Since ancient times, the king of Zhongxing has been ordained, and he can't taste the wise man and gentleman who rules the world with him?"

"And he is virtuous, he has never been out of Lu Lane, how fortunate to meet?"

"The one who is above does not ask for ears. Today's decision has not yet been made, and this special talent is also urgent. ”

“……”

By the time we were halfway through the reading, many of the scholars had already begun to react, and they began to discuss it eagerly.

"Is this a merit-seeking order issued by the imperial court?"

"The imperial court actually wants us to issue a merit-seeking order?"

"How is this possible?"

"I don't know who wrote this merit-seeking order, it is quite charming, and it must be that the merit-seeking order of Qin Xiaogong's book in the past is more eager, and the literary style is extraordinary!"

"Maybe it's the hand of a Confucian!"

“……”

A lot of people who read books are a little bit of a face-to-face.

You must know that now it is the Han Dynasty, the rules of the court are strict, not in the pre-Qin and Warring States periods, talents have nowhere to recommend, and they are in foreign countries, in the Han Dynasty, the recommendation system has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the product of the scholar clan will be formed.

"Don't make a noise, keep reading!"

"That is, if you want to quarrel, you will be arguing, now listen to them read it, I want to listen to it completely!"

Some people shouted, these people didn't know how to read at all, but they were also curious and wanted to hear what the edict issued by the imperial court was all about.

"Meng Gong is Zhao and Wei Lao is excellent, not Teng and Xue Dafu."

"If it is available later, then how can Qi Huan dominate the world! Is there anyone who is fishing in Weibin by brown jade today? ”

"And you have no thief sister-in-law to receive money and have not met the ignorant?"

"The second and third sons are bright and ugly, and I am the only one, and I have to use it!"

Whether it is a teahouse or a restaurant, or a street or alley, there are not many literate people, this order has been read out by countless people with a heart, over and over again, and the voice echoes in almost every corner of Luoyang City.

This is as if it was a nuclear bomb, which exploded, and after all, the powerful radiation it carried began to cause a chemical reaction that made countless people a little frightened.

"The order of seeking talents, seeking talents in the world, what a big breath!" Someone is sighing.

"This is clearly a conspiracy of the Mu Clan, they are too hateful!" There are also people who see it clearly and show a state of anger.

"Meritocracy? What a meritocracy, the bottom line of Confucian morality! Some of them lamented.

"Mu is so thirsty for talent, he must have something to think about!" Those who are thoughtful and think about things that ordinary people dare not think of, suddenly feel a chill all over their bodies.

"The court is seeking talents, I have great ambitions, I don't know if I can recommend myself!" There are not a few people who are ready to move.

"A few years of recommendation, and there is no name, if it is so down, I am afraid that it will be wiped out under this crowd in the future, if it can be appreciated by the people who seek talent, there may still be a chance!"

"This is the court's request for talent, I should do it, it should be okay!"

There are not a few people who are eager to have a career in office, and in front of this order to seek talents, they are not tempted to act.

……

Xicheng Street Entrance.

Several rangers with swords at their waists, each dressed in a greeting robe, surrounded a scholar.

"Fang Xiucai, what is this talking about!"

"Boss, this is a meritocracy order issued by the imperial court, only meritocracy, and meritocracy is not about virtue!"

"Merit Order?" The leader of the rangers squinted: "The imperial court is seeking talent? ”

"To be precise, it should be Taifu Mushan who is seeking talents, and under this newspaper, there is also a news that a talent hall has been opened in the city, but anyone who is talented, regardless of martial arts, whether it is a Confucian apprentice, a hundred talents, and a talent from the side, as long as it is a talented person, you can enter the museum!"

"Boss, why don't we give it a try!"

Some people are moved, the life of the rangers has not been easy recently, and these rangers in the capital have been affected by Wang Yue alone, and they have been chased and beaten by the Jinwu Yamen, and they have not dared to come out to beg for a life recently.

"Boss, it's okay to give it a try!"

"That's right, boss, our martial arts are also among the best among the Luoyang rangers!"

Five or six rangers were persuading the ranger leader.

The leader of the rangers was in his early forties, with a full beard, but his temples were bulging high, obviously he was a master of qi training and internal strength, he held the sword, his eyes were lifelike, and he looked at the scholar next to him: "Fang Xiucai, are you reliable in this matter?" ”

"This?"

Fang Xiucai thought about it for a while, and said: "As far as I know, Mu Taifu is a person in the green forest, in the past, he was still a Nanyang Yellow Turban, a traitor was whitewashed, Fang settled in the imperial court, and controlled the power of the imperial court, but because of his humble background, no one to follow, and no available people in his hands, it is also possible that he desperately wants to seek talents!" ”

"Then I'll give it a try!" The leader of the rangers was moved, gritted his teeth and said: "If we go on like this, sooner or later we will be forced to death by the Jinwuti horse, and if we leave Luoyang, we will not have any skills to make a living, so it is better to fight hard, maybe we can fight for a wealth and wealth!" ”

In the capital, there are a mixture of fish and dragons, like such rangers, there are countless of them, all of them are begging for a life in Luoyang, and then they are forced into a desperate situation, and then most of them are covered by the sudden order to seek talents, and there are many people who want to yearn for the talent museum......

……

……

Luoyang South City, four famous squares.

"Brother Guo, what do you think of this merit-seeking order?"

Four scholars from humble families, in their forties, and the youngest, only in their early twenties, sat on the ground in a small courtyard and discussed a copy of the Hongdu Journal on the table.

"In the pre-Qin period, the Qin State was in the land of Xiqi and was excluded by the people of the Central Plains, but it could eventually become a hegemon and dominate the country!"

Headed by the reader, about thirty years old, exudes an elegant temperament, a boxy face, a pair of eyes are lifelike, with a strong shaking power in the voice, he said quietly: "The world is saying, Qin's merit, is the first emperor, but the meaning is different, Qin's astonishing industry, is the accumulation of several generations of Qin kings, the number of Qin Xiaogong is the most, he promulgated the order to seek talent, cage the world's talents, go west, pass through the Hangu Pass and enter, establish a firm foundation for Qin, only to have the foundation of Qin to dominate the world in the future!" ”

"But now none of us know what this merit-seeking order means?" The young reader whispered.

"What do you mean?"

The scholar at the head said in a deep voice: "This is the Mu family's search for talents!" ”

"Shepherd's Quest for Talent?"

The other three, hearing this, looked at each other.

"The Mu clan starts from the humble, there is no outstanding achievement, only powerful soldiers, it is difficult to determine the stability of the country, regardless of the imperial power, the scholar clan alone is difficult, enough to make him unavailable!" The scholar at the head said softly: "He seeks talents with the order of seeking talents, the so-called one, is nothing more than to consolidate his position, and even more, he has the heart of hegemony and subversiveness, which is obviously thirsty!" ”

"Then we don't care about this merit order!" There are righteous and awe-inspiring words.

"No, such a great opportunity, how can you miss it!"

The head of the scholar said coldly: "We are from a poor family, humble and even more humble than the Mu family, no one asks about the cold window for ten years, the Mu family still has the right to be a heavy soldier, but to get ahead, what can we have, even if we are full of learning, we are not allowed to enter the door, and in the end we are not suppressed by those scholars?" ”

"Who's to say it's not?"

"When I was filial piety at the beginning, it was clear that Brother Guo was more capable, but what the Han family got was nothing more than that the Han family was a century-old family with profound family knowledge, so did the Confucians choose?"

Several people said indignantly.

"We want to get ahead, only by merit!" The scholar surnamed Guo held the newspaper in his hand and said firmly: "Tomorrow I will go to the Talent Pavilion, this is the only occasion, I don't want to miss it, as for the future, I can't care about it so much!" ”

"I'll go with Brother Guo!"

The three of them nodded and bowed to each other, meaning like-minded and walking together.

Luoyang is the imperial capital, the degree of popularization of knowledge here is far more than any city in the Han Dynasty, there are many scholars here, and there are countless people who are depressed.

Like these four people, there are also many scholars who are attracted by this merit-seeking order, and their hearts are better than action......

……

……

In less than three days, the order to seek talents covered Guanzhong.

This order is like a virus, and Hongdu Journal is the way to pass on this virus, when Hongdu Journal began to spread to Luoyang, began to spread out of Guanzhong, began to scatter in all directions, the order was also passed out.

The land of Guanzhong, countless talents, with talents, have the ability of thousands of horses, but there is no Bole appreciation, there is no way to cast the door, at this time they were suddenly ordered to seek talents, and they are yearning for the talent hall in Luoyang.

"Husband, where are you going to study!"

"Madam, the family will ask you, go to Luoyang for your husband, ask for talent, meritocracy is available, although your husband is amazingly talented, you can ask yourself what Anbang can do, and you want to give it a try for your husband!"

"The husband is gone, the big and small things in the family, the concubine must maintain it well, and wait for the husband to return!"

“……”

"Son, where are you going?"

"Dad, in the past, my mother was in the coffin, it was a big rebellion, in the township, it was already discredited, there was no morality to rely on, Shilin was rejected, half a generation of study, but the road ahead was blocked, the child was unwilling, and now the court issued an order to seek talent, regardless of origin, not about virtue, only talent!"

"Go, son, the world is vast, you can go to it, don't worry about being a father, being at home for a father, waiting for your career to be successful!"

"It is a crime for a child to not be filial to his father, and he should inherit his father's knees in the future to make up for today's regrets!"

"My son is talented, how can such a mother-in-law and mother be a husband!"

“……”

"Big brother, I want to go to Luoyang!"

"What are you going to do in Luoyang?"

"I heard that the order issued by Luoyang to seek talents, seeking talents in the world, regardless of origin, regardless of morality, civil and military, I have been studying martial arts for many years, a body of martial arts, it is a pity to waste it here, I want to go to Luoyang to break through!"

"I'm going with you!"

"Okay, let's go together!"

“……”

"Master, I want to go to Luoyang!"

"Luoyang, that's the place where I am Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!"

"Although I have been learning art for more than ten years, I have learned the craft of my life, inheriting the craft of Moxue, but I can't inherit it from the world, and I can't justify the name of the master, I am unwilling, and the order issued by the court today can tolerate the way of the side, I want to give it a try!"

"If you think about it, this might still be a trap!"

"I think about it, don't give it a try, I'm not reconciled!"

"Then go, the Mo family craft, the old man has already taught you, in the future, you should let yourself explore, if it can be passed on, it will be a good thing!"
