Chapter 112

Ding! System summoning completed. Please, host, eliminate two people; the system will then randomly summon one for the host from the remaining three.

System, eliminate Wang Mang; as for the remaining four.

Looking at the list of five names given by the system, Su Ye first eliminated Wang Mang.

I've only just started right now!

Regardless of whether Wang Mang is a transmigrator or not, Su Ye currently does not want to summon a time bomb that would disgust himself.

Even if Wang Mang is not a transmigrator, his ambition upon being summoned would certainly not be small; Su Ye does not want to summon him to engage in a battle of wits and courage.

And if Wang Mang really is a transmigrator, then there's no need to say more.

Transmigrators inherently possess a sense of superiority over natives.

He does not believe he could make an ambitious transmigrator wholeheartedly loyal to himself.

"As for the rest, eliminate Cao Ji!"

"Draw from the remaining three!"

Of the remaining four, Su Ye pondered for a long time and ultimately still decided to eliminate Cao Ji.

Gao Ju and Xun Yu need no further explanation; their panels are definitely more luxurious than Cao Ji's.

Huo Guang is the same; most importantly, Huo Guang has many connections!

Marquis Champion Huo Qubing, Marquis Martial Wei Qing.

Countless people's white moonlight in their hearts!

Moreover, compared to Cao Ji's other Commander-in-Chief attribute, Su Ye currently still needs Huo Guang's political attribute more.

For now, Su Ye's Commander-in-Chief talent is not lacking temporarily.

The 104 Commander-in-Chief Meng Zhang, the 103 Commander-in-Chief Li Jing, plus the 100 Commander-in-Chief Xue Ren Gui, as well as Tie Shi Wen who can duel Xue Ren Gui, Qin Qiong, etc.

What Su Ye currently needs is still political talent capable of stabilizing the state and securing the nation!

"Ding! Eliminate Wang Mang and Cao Ji; the system will summon one for the host from the remaining Gao Ju, Huo Guang, and Xun Yu. Please wait."

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the king's aide talent Xun Yu: Commander-in-Chief 86, Martial 61, Intelligence 97, Politics 100."

"Accompanying figures: Zhong Yao, Xun You, Chen Qun, Du Xi, Shi Zhi Cai, Guo Jia."

"The implanted identity is that of a great talent of the Xun clan of the Confucian school, who shares the same ideals as the host met when visiting the Confucian school as a guest during the host's travels; he has now officially entered the world, feels that the host now has a hidden dragon rising to the abyss, with extraordinary potential, and brings along his nephew Xun You, also of the Confucian Xun clan, and his good friends Guo Jia and Chen Qun to come to Cangzhou to seek refuge with the host; he is currently a guest in Cangling City."

Hng.

The king's aide talent is now in the bag!

Most importantly, Xun Yu ultimately did not disappoint Su Ye's initial expectations of him.

This time, he brought his whole family along, bringing over nearly all of the talented group he brought with him!

"Since they've come, what more people to bring?"

Too polite!

I like it!

Su Ye's face split into a big grin at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Xun Yu's entourage consists of three top-tier civil officials whose quality is not inferior to that of this summoning.

This lets Su Ye avoid several detours.

What a good person.

Su Ye originally had a good impression of Xun Yu as the king's aide talent; now he likes him even more.

Even before pledging loyalty, he knows how to recruit talent for his lord.

He really.

Su Ye once again said sorry to Boss Cao in his heart.

Su Ye obtained the multiple civil officials he wanted, while Xun Yu received strong praise from his lord whom he had not yet met.

Moreover, this time Xun Yu's implanted identity is that of a great talent of the Confucian Xun clan who has not yet been born.

And the Confucian school has always been neutral, never clearly declaring allegiance to any dynasty.

Thus, Su Ye naturally no longer has the later worries of Boss Cao.

Xun Yu also does not have an obsession with being utterly loyal to any particular dynasty.

Everyone is delighted!

As for who is unhappy, I won't say!

Only a world where Boss Cao is hurt has been born.

Although at this moment Boss Cao, far away in the capital of Great Yong, merely sneezed a few times, feeling as if he had lost a great deal.

For no reason, he feels a bit empty.

Thinking of the graceful figure of the Great Yong empress, Boss Cao muttered to himself.

Then he recalled that he had recently recruited a great talent, Shi Zhi Cai, and felt a little happy.

Although he felt something was a bit off.

But being able to have a great talent come to seek refuge still made Boss Cao quite happy.

After all, his subordinates now are all a bunch of rough men.

Now being able to have a great talent in the civil officials' side come to serve.

That is also a great step forward!

Hmm. Boss Cao is also quite happy.

"Zhong Kang, four Confucian sages have come to Cangling City."

"Go have the Net find a location, then invite them over, with a respectful attitude."

Su Ye, feeling happy inside, turned his head and ordered Xu Chu outside.

The magnificent gates of the City Lord's Manor in Cangling City slowly opened, welcoming guests from all directions.

Sunlight filtered through gauze-like clouds, falling upon the exquisite courtyard of the City Lord's Manor, where the blue-stone-paved ground reflected a soft sheen.

In the Council Hall, Su Ye led the crowd, all looking forward in anticipation.

First to come into view was a young scholar in a green robe, his steps steady, his demeanor composed.

This is the modest gentleman of the Xun lineage, a talent fit to aid a ruler—Xun Lingjun!

Wisdom and depth shone from his brow, as if every movement concealed endless learning.

Next, a figure staggered in—a disheveled drunkard reeking of alcohol.

He carried a wine flask, drinking as he walked, a satisfied smile on his lips.

Although his appearance was wild and unrestrained, his drunken eyes flashed with sharp insight, as if they could see into people's hearts.

Afterwards, a stern-faced chief strategist with deep eyes slowly stepped in.

Each of his steps was firm and powerful, as if each step were laying out future strategy.

Lastly was one resembling a young nobleman.

Clad in splendid robes, his bearing revealed a noble air.

His eyes showed confidence and pride, yet he did not become arrogant because of it.

The four great talents gathered together, their dispositions varied, yet all stood out exceptionally under the influence of Confucian learning.

Su Ye smiled as he welcomed him, his eyes full of anticipation and respect.

Led by attendants, Xun Yu and the three others were slowly guided into the Council Hall; he bowed toward Su Ye, who sat above the hall, performing an elegant yet solemn salute.

"Haha, Wen Ruo, long time no see; being able to come to Cangling City today is truly a fortune for my Cangzhou."

Su Ye watched the approaching figures, burst into laughter, hurriedly descended to help Xun Yu and the others up, nodded with a smile, and spoke.

"The Confucian school emphasizes benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faithfulness; these five constants form the foundation of governing the state and pacifying the world."

"The benevolent love others; the righteous follow the Way; the observant uphold propriety; the wise understand principles; the trustworthy keep their word."

"These five constants complement each other; none can be lacking."

"Wherever one may be, propriety must never be abandoned!"

The modest gentleman Xun Yu smiled faintly and replied calmly.

Su Ye nodded helplessly, ignoring the obstinacy of these Confucian disciples in their hearts, and instead turned to the drunken drunkard, teasing: "Feng Xiao may appear unrestrained and unconventional, but surely he harbors lofty ideas within."

"May I ask, Feng Xiao, who spends his days with wine, what life philosophy have you comprehended?"
