Chapter 38: Liao Ju's Talents (3)
"At that time, Liao Jusu's small memorial, which was not well-known, eventually touched the world's general trend. Talents from all over the world rushed to tell each other like ants, like tides, either open or secretly, and rushed to the Southern Tang Dynasty. In the end, all kinds of talents in the Southern Tang Dynasty were prosperous and showed strength far beyond other countries in various fields. Liao Jusu's memorial made an indelible contribution. After that, according to Lin Feng's proposal, this memorial was named "Liao Jusu's Talent Memorial".
——Excerpt from "Book of Southern Tang? Biography of Liao Jusu" written by Shi Yan, a historian of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Chang Mengxi, the deputy envoy of Privy Councillor who returned to Qingsi Hall, and his men did it as soon as possible. They immediately asked Han Xizai, a good calligraphy master, to catch his pen. They first wrote a memorial to promote Lin Feng from a fifth rank to a fourth rank to a fourth rank.
As for Lin Feng's position as the Zhaowu Captain, no one paid attention to it.
Previously, Lin Feng had never told outsiders about everything about the base, and even his sworn brother Han Xizai simply mentioned that he was trying to train troops. Therefore, in the hearts of Chang Mengxi and Han Xizai, Lin Feng is just a fun player now, and will return to the court sooner or later to co-preside over the overall situation of change.
Later, Han Xizai, who had the best literary talent, took a piece of rice paper and started writing with Lin Feng as an example, briefly described his journey from a civilian to a fourth-level official within two months after he arrived in the Southern Tang Dynasty. He then refined the main contents of the Southern Tang Dynasty, such as "Letter to the World", "City Change Law", "Commercial Credit Law", and "Honor Lord System", and other innovations. At the end, the Southern Tang Dynasty's determination to change and enterprising spirit and appearance were praised with continuous pen tips, and it was completed in one go.
"Shuyan is so literary! He is emotionally thriving, uses allusions freely, and his words are concise! He is so literary! " Jiang Wenmo, the counselor and the Minister of Rites, praised the first.
"The writing is brilliant, the momentum is magnificent, and the writing is brilliant! I will look at this article below as good as the "State of the Conduct" that Lord Han became famous twenty-four years ago!" Xiao Yan, the minister and minister of the Dali Temple, also boasted.
Han Xi wrote this article so vividly and enjoyably! Hearing the praises from his two friends, he burst into laughter.
"Good article, worthy of being the world-famous Han Xizai and Han Shuyan! Let's go, let's call the emperor to make a decision!" Since the deputy envoy of Privy Councilor Chang Mengxi returned to the court, he became an impatient person. He immediately rolled up two pieces of paper, one big and one small, and walked out. Xiao Yan and others hurriedly followed behind.
When they arrived at the imperial study, they found that King Li Jingsui of Qi was also there.
After the king and his ministers met, Li Jing took two pieces of paper and read them carefully. Then he handed the paper to Li Jingsui.
Li Jingsui finished reading slowly, looked at Li Jing's inquiry eyes, and said, "This announcement is very literary and impeccable. Lin Feng's achievements are significant, so it's okay to be promoted to the fourth rank. However, if his promotion is too fast, it may cause criticism. I think it is better to be promoted to Taizhong Dafu. As for the position of a regular doctor, I suggest that I discuss it again in a month."
After Li Jingsui said this, Li Jing immediately understood. A month later, it was exactly the time for the imperial guards competition that Lin Feng mentioned. If Lin Feng succeeded in training, it would not be too late to be promoted to the fourth grade. If it really doesn't work, it would be fine to upgrade him to a higher level of military position.
"The King of Qi is very worried. What do you think of me?" Li Jing asked.
Taizhong Taifu was promoted to the fourth rank, and Lin Feng had already been promoted to the next level. Chang Mengxi and others could no longer think about this and immediately kowtowed and thanked him.
After finishing work in Qingsi Palace, Han Xizai, excited, took a car back to his mansion. While sitting by the bed, he was changing his clothes, shoes and clogs, a servant ran in panic: "Master, there is a weird man from outside the mansion. I want to see the master!"
"Freak? What kind of weird method?" Han Xizai stopped the movement in his hand and asked curiously.
"The weird man was sitting in a car pulled by two cows. The other man didn't get out, but just asked a child to come over and talk. The sound of a piano came out in the car." The servant said it hurriedly.
Could it be that he was here? Han Xizai was shocked. He didn't care about the clothes he had not changed yet, and stretched his feet into his shoes and clogs, and rushed out.
When he arrived at the mansion, Han Xizai stared at the ox cart, and asked loudly with a trembling voice: "But Brother Weiming came to the humble house?"
What he said about fear of fame refers to Shi Xubai, who fled to the Southern Tang Dynasty with him.
"It's me! I haven't seen Han Shuyan for many years, but you are still as charming as you like! You are still wearing clothes and not wearing clogs!" An old man with white hair and strong hair lifted the curtain and walked off the ox cart.
"I'm afraid of my name, I miss you so much! But I'm going to hear that my old friends are visiting me, and I'll welcome you with my clogs!" Han Xizai looked down at her unwrapped shoes, and smiled and greeted her. He was very happy and made up his mind to find a way to keep this person by his side, which would definitely add a strong help to the Tang Dynasty's reform!
Shi Xubai was born in the second year of ** AD, with his name Weiming. His aristocratic family lived in Qilu. When he was young, he lived in seclusion in Songshan Mountain. When the Central Plains was in chaos, he fled to Jiangnan with Han Xizai from the North Sea.
At that time, Liezu Li Bing assisted Yang Wu and began to use Song Qiqiu. Shi Xubai once boasted: "I can replace him." Song Qiqiu was also a proud and arrogant person. Of course, he felt uneasy. He wanted to take advantage of Shi Xubai's skills in front of others, and called him a banquet. He set up a prestigious opera next to him. After a few rounds of wine, Shi Xubai made a book, a proclamation poem, and a stele of steles. Shi Xubai was half drunk at that time, and he was holding papers. He kept lying in his mouth, and his pens were constantly placed. All the poems were read, and the guests were surprised.
Shi Xubai once told Liezu Li several times: "The Central Plains is flowing, and only the Jianghuai River is full of soldiers and food. We should drive to make a great cause and do not lose the opportunity, and regret it in the future." At that time, Li Bing insisted on the strategy of cultivating and resting, but naturally did not obey. Shi Xubai then thanked him for illness and traveled south to Luoxingwan, Jiujiang, often took a double calf plate, hung on a wine pot, found the mountain boy's horn, and followed him with a piano and a wine scoop on his back, traveling to Lushan Mountain, and was in a decisive world.
In the early years of Baoda in the early years after the Yuanzong Li Jing ascended the throne, Han Xizai was appointed as the editor of the History Museum and recommended Shi Xubai to Li Jing. After Li Jing summoned him, he visited the state affairs. Shi Xubai said to the spot: "A man from the grass and wilderness is just fishing, how can he know the national plan?" Li Jing politely gave a banquet in the palace. Shi Xubai was drunk at the corner of the hall. Li Jing smiled and said, "It's a true hidden!" After that, Li Jing gave him five-century land and returned it to Mount Lu.
Han Xizai observed Shi Xubai several times and sighed: "I am afraid of my famous brother, and I am the true immortal. But I don't know why the gods on the top of the mountain fell into the mortal world today?"
Shi Xubai looked upright and said solemnly: "Shuyan, I originally meant to let go of the wilderness in the mountains and forests in this life, but I accidentally heard the "Letter to the World Talents" a few days ago. The heart that had been silent for many years was also a little lively. Later, even my children around me were no exception. They talked about business and the lord system every day. I just wanted to go to Jinling and his party to find out the truth."
