In ancient times, it was a society that paid attention to etiquette, and there were many kinds of etiquette, even if it was a small matter of adopting a son, in the upper class, there was also a set of standard etiquette.

Liu Bei attaches great importance to this matter, and plans to invite Lai Min, a university scholar who is now in Yizhou and is proficient in etiquette, to preside over the etiquette of Huang Zhong's adopted son.

Huang Zhong was overjoyed when he heard this, and thanked him: "Thank you Lord for your grace!" ”

Huang Xu also thanked him: "Thank you, lord!" ”

"Hmm!" Liu Bei nodded, looked at Huang Xu and said: "Huang Xu, since you worship General Huang as your father, you must abide by filial piety and make no mistakes. ”

"Yes, I will definitely serve General Huang as my own father!"

Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "In this case, your father and son have just met, so let's go down and have a good chat first!" ”

………………

…………

Half a month later, on February 15, 214 AD, Huang Zhong invited Huang Xu to his home as a gift of sheep wine, officially accepted Huang Xu as his adopted son, and Liu Bei sent a generous congratulations, Huang Zhong held a banquet at home, and invited the city Chinese Wu to come as a witness, and the adoption of the son was declared over.

At the same time, Shuzhou City has gradually become lively.

Liu Bei ordered meritocracy, Zhuge Liang personally drafted a recruitment list, and announced that Yizhou was seeking talents.

Now it has been more than half a month since the release of the recruitment list, and there have been many new faces in Shuzhou City.

In the Zhaoxian Hall, Dong He, Huang Quan and others are responsible for meeting with the literati who come from Yizhou every day and assessing their talents.

In the school field outside the city, the assessment of military generals is in charge of Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and Zhang Ren, who has not long been subordinated to Liu Bei.

In fact, in the history of Shu Han, there were not many buried talents, Liu Bei, Liu Chan during the reign of the two emperors, the talents in Yizhou were basically outstanding.

Although the talents in Yizhou are basically outstanding, the time for them to come out is one after the other. For example, some people came out during the Liu Bei period, and some people came out during the reign of Liu Chan, or even in the late Shu Han Dynasty.

The reason why Liu Chan proposed meritocracy and released the recruitment list was that he hoped to gather these talents as soon as possible and use them for Shu Han, and then concentrate the most powerful forces to carry out the Northern Expedition and seize the world in the fastest time.

On the civilian side, Liu Chan has little interest.

Now that he has saved the lives of Pang Tong and Zhang Song, Fa Zheng and Liu Ba have been treated by Hua Tuo, and the dark diseases of the body have gone, and they will not die early, and Zhuge Liang will not become ill in the future.

At present, there are still backbones Huang Quan, Dong He, Li Yan, Ma Liang, Jiang Wan, Pan Jun and others, and Fei Yi, Dong Yun and others will be available in the future.

At present, Liu Bei's territory is not large, governing Jing and Yierzhou, any of the above can take the lead alone, and most of these people are in their thirties, just in the prime of life, so in a short period of time, Shu Han has no shortage of political talents.

The role of recruiting literati is only to fill the official positions that will appear after the deposition of local corrupt officials after the implementation of the new law.

Among the civil officials who came to Yizhou to defect, most of them were local scholars, and their literary talents were average, and there were few eye-catching. Even if they have talent and good learning, they will govern the local area in the future and their political achievements will not be buried. Therefore, Liu Chan did not pay too much attention to it.

Liu Chan was interested in military generals.

Although there are many generals in Shu Han, most of them are fierce generals, and there are no talents to command the troops, compared to Cao Wei and Eastern Wu, it is still too few.

Therefore, Liu Chan is particularly fond of generals.

On this day, Liu Chan took Lin Xiao and went to the military camp outside the city, intending to see if there were any powerful characters who came to answer the edict during this time.

In the school field outside the city, it is already very lively.

Many shooting ranges and tournament platforms have been built on top of the school grounds.

At this moment, in the shooting range, many fierce warriors are shooting, and on the competition platform, they are also pairs of twos, trying their fists and feet.

Liu Chan directly found Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei is located on a high platform in the center of the school field.

This high platform is more than a zhang higher than the competition platform on the school field, and you can overlook the surroundings when you stand on the high platform, and the situation on the school field is clear at a glance.

At this moment, Zhang Fei was sitting on the high platform drinking, Ma Chao and Zhang Ren were standing on the fence of the high platform and watching the competition around them.

"I've seen Childe!" Seeing Liu Chan, the soldiers hurriedly bowed.

"Adou, you're here!" Seeing Liu Chan, Zhang Fei hurriedly stepped forward.

Seeing that Zhang Fei's case had poured a few empty jars, Liu Chan couldn't help but have a headache and said: "Third uncle, why are you still drinking at this time, the people who came to participate in the assessment in the past four weeks are all people with lofty ideals in Yizhou, we should show the military prestige of our army, let them see the strength of our army, so as to have a sense of belonging, you are responsible for this matter, you should lead by example, what is it to drink here!" ”

Seeing this, Zhang Fei blamed Liu Chan: "Adou, I heard that you proposed this, right?" But it hurt me, what kind of people are these people with lofty ideals, it's been ten days, there is not a single powerful character, and the most powerful ones can't last a round in my hands, how boring is this, I don't drink to relieve my boredom, and you still want me to watch this group of incompetent rats compete and cheer? ”

"Childe!" At this moment, Ma Chao and Zhang Ren also noticed that Liu Chan was coming, so they came over to salute.

"I've seen two generals!" Liu Chan hurriedly returned the salute.

Liu Chan continued to thank Zhang Fei and said: "Third uncle, you are brave and brave in the world, even if you are a general brave and good general in the army, you can't catch a round. How can you look at them in such a high light? Put away the wine quickly, you will make these people with lofty ideals who participated in the assessment feel that their father does not value them, so they will leave! ”

"Don't take it, don't take it!" Zhang Fei shook his head, sat down in his seat again, directly picked up the wine jar and poured a sip of wine, and then said: "These people are just ordinary people with ordinary martial arts, and even the soldiers in my army can't beat them. If I can have a great character and let me have some hope, I will take this drink. ”

Liu Chan shook his head and sighed, came to the fence and looked at the surrounding martial arts school field, and glanced at it roughly, indeed as Zhang Fei said, most of these people are young and strong people, or some hunters, who feel that they have some martial arts, and they want to win fame and wealth before they come to participate in the assessment. And there are few people who are really talented and martial arts.

On the martial arts field, most of them are reckless men fighting, and the good thing to say is to call it a crop handle, embroidering legs, and what is not good is to grab your hair and pinch your neck.

In the archery range, most of the participants were hunters, but the results were not very good, and the good shooting was only 70 steps and barely hit the target.

Liu Chan looked at Zhang Ren and asked, "These days, aren't there a few good martial arts?" In addition, are there only two assessments: shooting and martial arts? ”
