The Three Great Han Dynasties: Awaken Liu Bei with a scolding; you weave mats and sell sandals.

The Liu family private school was re-established, which cost another sum of money.

Although the amount is small, Liu Hong is now allergic to the word "money".

"Your luck is good. I never expected that you would make such rapid progress, my lord. In less than a month, you have already settled down in Zhuojun and even opened the Liu family private school."

"As expected of our lord."

Su Shuang led a group of people, pulling several horse-drawn carts loaded with iron ore and other materials needed for preparing agricultural tools, back to Zhuojun. Among the entourage were the Zhao brothers, whom he had met in Youbeiping County before.

Originally, the two sides had already separated, but after thinking it over, Zhao Feng and his brother felt that with Su Shuang, a member of the Liu family, personally recommending them, the effect would be better. Since there was no rush, they decided to travel together.

Traveling together.

Su Shuang also learned the names of the two brothers: the elder brother was named Zhao Feng, courtesy name Zishan; the younger brother was named Zhao Yun, courtesy name Zilong.

"Please, Brother Su."

Zhao Feng cupped his hands in a fist salute.

Su Shuang smiled lightly, waved her hand to indicate that it was nothing, and then sent the team to the previously arranged manor, while she led the Zhao brothers, Zhao Feng and Zhao Yun, into the private school.

Behind Su Shuang, Zhao Feng, as the elder brother and father figure, naturally did not forget to impart wise words and life experience: "Zilong, remember, when you meet that Lord Liu later, do not be impolite."

"After you joined the Liu family, your elder brother knew that you had great ambitions and were very talented, but you must be down-to-earth and take things one step at a time in order to achieve great things."

Listening to his elder brother's words, Zhao Yun nodded obediently, looking particularly sensible: "Zilong will listen to his elder brother."

Zhao Feng was even more gratified to see this.

Although both of their parents had passed away.

He raised Zhao Yun from childhood, but the younger brother never caused him any worry, and the two brothers lived a pretty good life.

But they still had to plan for their future. Both of them were getting on in years, so if they didn't work hard now, when would they?

Having just heard that Zhuojun had a route for recommending filial and incorrupt officials, I made a special trip here.

Although the Zhao family was based in Changshan County, the two brothers, like Gongsun Zan, were merely from a collateral branch of the family.

Without outstanding performance, it would be extremely difficult for them to be recommended for the civil service examination, which is why they sought opportunities elsewhere and came to the Liu family private school at this moment.

The two brothers were talking in hushed tones.

Suddenly, Zhao Yun looked back and saw a man dressed in a blue shirt and trousers, with a gentle face. As he walked, his every move exuded the refined elegance of a scholar-official.

Although his features were approachable, the air of authority emanating from his eyes gradually and subtly emanated from him, indicating that he was no ordinary person.

"This humble one greets Lord Liu."

Zhao Yun, as if struck by inspiration, clasped his hands in greeting.

When his elder brother Zhao Feng realized what was happening, he quickly spoke up and greeted him as well.

"Greetings, my lord."

Upon seeing that Liu Hong had arrived, Su Shuang quickly stepped forward to reply.

"How was the trip?"

Liu Hong asked the questions as usual.

Su Shuang nodded and replied, "Now that our lord has been enfeoffed as a marquis, the previous trade with the Wuhuan tribe was very straightforward. These mere foreign tribes actually think that we, the people of the Great Han, should submit, especially since our lord is a member of the Han imperial family."

Su Shuang's quiet praise was pleasing to Liu Hong, who then looked at the two people in front of him.

Especially the young man who had just addressed him, he was quite bold. Judging from his appearance, with his sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, and regular features, he was a first-rate person of integrity.

Liu Hong couldn't help himself and subconsciously used the Qi Observation Technique.

"Using the Qi Observation Technique consumes 100 points of Luck!"

This discovery gave him a tremendous surprise.

Name: Zhao Yun

Age: Sixteen

[Aura: Gold]

[Destiny: A solitary star shining brightly in the world, with a long and prosperous martial career; possessing wisdom and resourcefulness, and unwavering loyalty and courage]

"First came a flash of cold light, then the spear shot out like a dragon."

"What a fine Zhao Zilong of Changshan Zhending!"

At the same time, Su Shuang slowly explained the identities of the two people.

Liu Hong's face lit up with joy, and he said frankly, "Would you two be willing to enter my Liu family's private school? If you can enter Youlin, you will be appreciated and valued by my Liu family, and it is not impossible for you to be appointed to a county position in the future."

"What are your thoughts, both of you?"

As Liu Hong spoke, he used the Qi Observation Technique once again, consuming 100 points of luck.

Name: Zhao Feng

Age: 22

[Qi: Yellow]

[Destiny: Loyal, brave, and virtuous, but tragically, he died young; Heaven has mercy on him.]

Upon seeing this destiny, Liu Hong remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he had already made a decision and was now awaiting the decision of his two brothers.

"Could my brother and I consider this?"

Zhao Feng's expression was unusual, and he took the initiative to ask.

Liu Hong nodded.

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Liu."

Zhao Feng immediately added.

The two then went to a side room. As soon as Zhao Yun stepped in, he asked, "Brother, are we going to join this young unicorn? Didn't you say before that we should be down-to-earth? Isn't joining the young unicorn a shortcut?"

This question really stumped Zhao Feng.

He looked embarrassed, scratched his head, and then straightened his face, maintaining his elder brother's dignity: "Zilong, today Lord Liu appreciates the two of us and has specially invited us to join Youlin."

"If one can establish oneself based on one's own talent, what's wrong with that? How can it not be considered down-to-earth? You and I, brothers, have traveled a long way to this Liu family private school, isn't our goal precisely to be recommended for the civil service and embark on an official career?"

Under Zhao Feng's persuasion, Zhao Yun naturally chose to listen.

The two then returned to Liu Hong.

"Master Liu, my brother and I have reached an agreement and are willing to participate in the examination of Liu Family Private School."

Liu Hong didn't need to worry about the rest. The Liu family private school wasn't that difficult to get into; basically, once you reached the yellow-level destiny, you were almost guaranteed success.

As for the untimely death of Zhao Yun's elder brother Zhao Feng, Liu Hong also came up with a solution: by conferring a certain amount of luck value through an imperial edict, he could turn the crisis into safety.

However, this will require a suitable time.

As far as he knew, the Zhao family was a large clan in Changshan Zhending. The other party was not like Bo Cai before, who was just a commoner with only an old woman as his family. Therefore, he needed to think things through carefully.

The assessment results came out in less than half a day.

Both of them successfully joined the Young Lin Class, which was not unexpected for Liu Hong.

Cui Yan appeared before Liu Hong once again. After Bo Cai, Liu Hong's most suitable student, started the prelude to recruiting Liu family volunteers from among the refugees, everything else was left to Cui Yan to handle.

If Bo Cai can't even handle such a trivial matter, he is not worthy of being a student of the Cui family of Qinghe, let alone inheriting their mantle.

At this moment, Cui Yan gave his comments.

Zhao Yun: He has virtue but no power. He can protect his lord but may not be able to harm the enemy. He can be a great general, but he is unlikely to achieve great things.

Zhao Feng: A man of integrity who thinks things through before acting, making him the most reliable.

……

The two men's destinies are vastly different, one being metal and the other yellow. Yet, at this moment, the assessment is that Zhao Feng, as the elder brother, is superior and seems more capable of shouldering great responsibilities.
