It’s not that Liu Bei did not want to promote Chen Deng, but that Chen Deng refused repeatedly. After a long time, Liu Bei understood that Chen Deng was a talented person who was bound by his family, so he mostly gave him a generous gift, rather than repeatedly hoping to promote Chen Deng to work in Chang'an to serve an important position, and instead selecting capable people from Chen Deng’s uncles and brothers to be promoted to the prefect.

I have to say that Chen’s education is good, and the descendants of the Chen generation in Xia Pi are all okay, but Liu Bei is still a little sorry for Chen Deng.

At the beginning of this year, Liu Bei was very happy when he found out that Chen Deng changed his mind. Even if he did not say bluntly, he would give a hint.

In fact, at the beginning, Liu Bei planned to transfer Chen Deng directly to Chang'an, but Chen Xi refused. Speaking of which, although Chen Xi needed Chen Xi to transfer the civil servants, Chen Xi was basically not stuck. He would just call Chen Deng like Chen Xi.

However, Chen Xi refused that time, and Chen Xi told Liu Beiming that Chen Deng was not suitable for Chang'an.

"I don't deny Chen Yuanlong's talent, but he is not suitable for Chang'an. Now he wants to come to Chang'an because he is hit and believes that the family rejuvenation is hopeless, so he gave up on himself. The ability that can be used here is absolutely not at its limit." Chen Xi said helplessly.

He has never seen what Chen Deng is like. Just talking about wisdom and vision are not worse than Ju Su's level. That is a perfect parameter of a top counselor, but what about the mind?

What kind of mind is Ju Shu and what kind of mind is Chen Deng? There is a fundamental gap in the limits that can be exerted by the same parameters, and these are the things that top advisers fight for.

Although Chen Xi said that he was a middle-aged man, Chen Xi’s material is not considered a thousand years of wisdom and experience, but after Chen Xi took the lead, he was the same as his son. The fundamental reason was that he stood at a different height.

You can't even think about what I did, just how can you beat me!

Chen Deng’s problem is also here. This guy has always been seeking the growth of the Chen family. It is best to defeat the Chen family in Yingchuan and become the new ancestor of the Chen family. But from this point of view, it is impossible. Just like learning, under the same talent, he has been working towards the strongest in the world. Even if he can’t achieve it, he will be better than always trying to live a life of just being alone.

Therefore, in Chen Xi's view, the Chen family in Xia Pi is a trap. They can't get out of the circle and aim to break up the princes and split the earth. Can you catch up with the guy like you who aims to strengthen your family? Especially in terms of qualifications, your qualifications may not be as good as these people.

Liu Bei understood Chen Xi's meaning and felt helpless. He also understood that it was true. Chen Deng was just over-hit and gave up on himself, instead of really wanting to work here. He just wanted to make a living.

"If Duke Xuande really wants to cheer up Chen Yuanlong, simply let him go to the Western Regions to be Sima Boda's deputy, that's an opportunity. Just like I'm assuming that Boda will release water for other aristocratic families there, Chen Yuanlong can also release water. He will be extremely active there, working harder than in Xuzhou, and may even die in office." Chen Xi said half-sneered.

Liu Bei was silent for a few moments when he heard this. Indeed, if Chen Deng was the one who puts the family first, he would definitely work hard to die there.

However, Liu Bei refused. Chen Deng had known him for so many years and had always been the governor of Xuzhou. How could he be sent to the Western Regions to be the deputy to Sima Zhongda?

Chen Xi laughed at Liu Bei and said yes. If you believe it or not, I will send this news to Chen Yuanlong. Then he sent a piece of black materials about Sima Zhongda doing state government affairs during the day and clearing the hands of the aristocratic family to Xuzhou at night. Chen Yuanlong asked for it and would definitely go.

Liu Bei had nothing to say. How could this possibility be said? Although it was a bit slapped in the face, even Liu Bei felt that it was very likely that Chen Deng was a representative of the interests of the family. When he went to the Western Regions, his advantage in building a family was too obvious, and he would also get everything that the Chen family had been unable to handle before. Therefore, as long as he received this material, Chen Deng would definitely go.

Not to mention being demoted to half a level, even if you are demoted a little, Chen Deng would be happy. Compared with the official position, family interests are more important in Chen Deng's eyes. If you go there and truly build a family, as long as you can build a small country, it would be no loss.

Liu Bei was also choked by Chen Xi, and finally he could only say angrily, Chen Xi, you find a suitable place for me, but he also agreed with Chen Xi's idea. Chen Deng is not suitable for coming to the central government, so that guy needs to go to a suitable place for staying.

Chen Xi smiled and pointed to the corner of the southwest, indicating that he was transferred to the governor of Yizhou and to serve as a transfer point for the southwest battle. He directly told Chen Deng that there would be the same needs, and the rest of Chen Deng would do it himself, and Zhang Song was transferred to the Jiangnan area to take over Lu Su's work, and then transferred Lu Su back. Yes, the most important thing is to transfer Lu Su back.

Chen Xi could hardly stand the life of this kind. Although Zhuge Liang could work, there were too few people in the entire Zhengyuan who could work. Although Xun Yun and Xun Ji were easy to use, these two were not Xun and Xun You. There was a clear gap in experience and worldly affairs.

In addition, Jia Xu and Guo Jia are a half-bad person in doing internal affairs. Zhao Yun left the plan and the agricultural tax all depended on Liu Ye alone. Even Chen Xi had no good idea for such a pure number thing, so only Liu Ye could not move at all.

Sun Qian was building a road. At the end of the year, Mi Zhu was going to gather people to re-record the chamber of commerce. Man Chong and Xun Yue were still sorting out the laws. Jian Yong was arrested to compile history books, compile pre-Qin literature and history, reorganize the classics, and prepare to collect and burn all existing books for filing.

None of these things can be stopped, so that only a few cats that Chen Xi can use are left. Although Zhuge Liang is very capable, he is still a human being. Even if he doesn’t act like a human being, he has to look at his age. Besides, Zhuge Liang got married before the New Year, so he should have to rest recently.

But judging from the current situation, maybe Zhuge Liang would continue to work overtime in the Zhengyuan one day before marriage. Chen Xi was a little dissatisfied with this, so he could only find a way to recall Lu Su, and at least one of them would work if he got them back.

When Chen Xi's words fell into the matter of recalling Lu Su, Liu Bei understood Chen Xi's thoughts. Although it was summer at that time and Chen Xi was not as miserable as it is now, what did Chen Zichuan do when he was preparing for the future? Of course, he had to arrange other people's work in advance so that he could safely advance the short-term process of the entire society while scrambling.

Although Liu Bei wanted to complain about this, Chen Xi's arrangement was too clear that Liu Bei was unable to refute it at all. In addition, Chen Xi's disposal was beneficial to the three of them, so Liu Bei just mocked Chen Xi for a few words and agreed to this matter.

Of course, even if the appointment letter has not been issued yet, well-informed people like Chen Deng and Zhang Song already know that they will be transferred for a lifetime, and even because of their own means, they already know where they will be transferred.

When Chen Deng came to Chang'an to take a plan, he had to bring a few living Yellow River Dali to visit Chen Xi, which was to express his gratitude. As for giving other things, come on, Chen Deng thought about it and didn't expect what Chen Xi would lack.

Give some gold, silver, jewelry, antiques in calligraphy and paintings, etc.? Come on, the names of the five major merchants are not as thick as Chen Xi’s own arms, so spending money to bribe Chen Xi? This is already one of the biggest jokes in the world. As for antiques in calligraphy and paintings, Chen Deng has them, but Chen Xi’s hobby for this kind of thing is very average. In fact, the entire Zhongyuan now knows that Chen Xi’s hobby is quite strange.

Those so-called things that are appreciated by both the elite and the masses, those exciting and pleasant things, and those yellow and white things that ordinary people like very much. It seems that Chen Xi is not interested in it. Those who can barely be called interested may only be eaten. So when Chen Deng passed by the Yellow River, he happened to meet a living big carp in the Yellow River and brought a few of them.

Then that day, Chen Xi chopped the Yellow River carp and ate it whole.

Chen Xi did not refuse such things as giving food to himself. People's relationships cannot be rejected in the Central Plains. Chen Deng's fish he ate it.

Chen Deng never thought about how many fish bribed Chen Xi. This was just a joke. He brought a few fish and really said a few words to him to thank Chen Xi. Even though Chen Xi said many belittled, Chen Deng admitted that he was such a person.

Do you really think Chen Deng doesn’t know what his situation is? He knows, but some things are really not solved by knowing the mistakes and correcting them. Just like everyone knows that if you manage yourself well, the world will be not far from Datong, but can’t you still manage them well?

It is difficult for humans to understand each other and not cause trouble to others. After all, this is the shortcoming of the social creatures.

As for Zhang Song's side, Liu Ye will accompany him, but after Lu Su returns in a few days, Lu Su will meet Zhang Song in person and then pass on all his experience in governing Jiangnan to Liu Ye.

Unlike other times when I took the imperial edict to take office and then the local officials handed over the place, I no longer need to do that, nor do I need to lead the troops to hand over as I used to do, and even if I lead the troops, there is a possibility of being killed.

It is not Chen Xi's boast now that the central government has stuck the logistics lifeline of most places, but also stuck the military power in almost all places. It has been continuously discharged from the army, allowing the imperial power represented by Liu Bei to continue to invade the local area.

Before other problems arose, Chen Xi’s previous reserved methods had already formed a new grassroots system before the local power vacuum was eliminated.
