Gongsun Du was escorted to Xiangping. With a look of death, he met the long-awaited winner, but he looked shocked.

"What's so surprising? Do you think I'm very young? You have to know that youth is the greatest value. Everything will become possible. Haha, I'm still surprised now." Chen Hao saw his expression and knew that he was shocked by his appearance. He had already predicted this. After all, many people looked surprised when they saw him. He was too young.

"I am very young. Maybe young is the greatest capital. I didn't expect to lose in your hands. I'm not wronged." Gongsun Du was speechless. His life was in the hands of the other party. What else can he do now? He can let him go.

"Haha, don't be so seldom taken for death. Your life is still valuable. The governance here is good. Are you willing to surrender and serve me?" Chen Hao stood up and looked at him and said solemnly. For losers, as long as they have talents, they will not hesitate to gather them.

When Gongsun Du heard this, he couldn't help but feel aroused. If he surrendered now, he might not have no chance in the future. He would just lose face. However, it would be nothing to lose some face. As long as he lives, he simply knelt down and said, "Shengji pays homage to the lord."

When Chen Hao heard this, he was happy. No matter whether he wanted to or not, as long as he was willing to surrender in face, he could use the astral soul technique without any obstacles and directly imprinted on his soul. The surrender at that moment instantly replaced all kinds of meanings, with the intention of being only loyal.

He helped him up happily, and as for his subordinates and sons, he naturally could not let him go. With all loyalty, he immediately gathered a lot of talents, so he was naturally happy, which could at least ensure stability in the next few decades.

"Okay, today I will appoint you as the prefect of Liaodong and continue to guard Liaodong for me. It is both a deterrent to Goryeo and related rents. You can go straight to Qingzhou when necessary. At that time, I will send someone to notify you. Remember, if you practice your troops carefully, your future achievements will not be just a little bit, it depends on your efforts." Chen Hao immediately pardoned the title. Since he was his own person, he had no worries.

"Thank you for your kindness." Gongsun Du and others bowed together and were officially included in his jurisdiction.

When Tian Chou and others saw it, they were also very happy. A sense of intimacy arises, which is naturally a natural feeling between the astral soul arts. There is no need for any words. It is mutual support for their own people, and it is difficult for the enemy to get in. As for the core, they don’t even think about it.

"Hahaha, okay, today we have a big banquet to celebrate my conquest of Liaodong, hahaha." Chen Hao laughed happily.

Everyone congratulated each other, and then the banquet was held to celebrate today's testimony, and the Liaodong area was completely integrated under his rule.

Leaving 20,000 elite soldiers, both cavalry and infantry soldiers, it would be fine if they were trained according to this model. When Liaodong has the ability to deterrent, these 20,000 elite soldiers will return, and it was Chen Hao who took care of Gongsun Du.

"Lord, don't worry, Shengji will manage this land well and set a solid rear for the lord." Gongsun Du and his people swore in front of the army that it would be a blessing to be able to give 20,000 powerful elites. If they can't do it, they will hang themselves directly.

"Okay, I feel very relieved when Sheng Ji said this. If that's the case, we should return." Chen Hao nodded and left Liaodong County with Zhou Cang and Yang Ge's team and returned to Yuyang.

After everyone's advice, they moved from Shanggu County to Yuyang County. However, the army did not move much, because it was closer in Shanggu County, and only moved the specific capital for a while. After the entire Youzhou was captured, it would still move.

After another half a month, everyone finally returned to Yuyang County and entered Yuyang City. Everyone was waiting.

Wen Juan brought everyone to worship: "Congratulations to the lord, conquering the northern counties, and pacifying the Wuhuan, is the result of all generations."

"You are welcome, please get up and sit down." Chen Hao was not used to kneeling and sitting cross-legged on his own. Everyone who was lowered did not dare to kneel down and knelt on the mat respectfully, and then said: "You have basically calmed down in the north now. It's time to deal with it. First, exercise a batch of grain to the northern counties to give the people time to recuperate."

"The great kindness of the lord is indeed a blessing for the people." Everyone shouted again, it was too big.

You should know that this batch of grain is definitely more than one million stones, but it is still sent out at any time, which shows how good the lord is.

"Well, the next step is the same. We need to train troops. Only by turning resources into strength can we stabilize our peace. The people and you can enjoy the path of co-governance calmly. In this way, there will be no more divisions between the gentry and poor families." Chen Hao hoped to remove the gap between the two. Although it was very difficult, how could he know that it had not been tried before.

Everyone understood the lord's ambition as soon as they heard it, and they went out to make suggestions. Now that the territory is large, there are more people who can use it. With their concerted efforts, we will discuss a countermeasure. One is to create a college and open up people's wisdom, so that more people can know the importance of knowledge and have a path to the officialdom, so that civilians can only be regarded as civilians for the rest of their lives.

"Lord, what method do we need to use to pick up scholars?" The reviewing station came out and asked, this question was very important.

"It is okay to be filial and honest, but it must be verified before it can be effective. Of course, if there is real material, you can also recommend it to me through recommendation. However, these are not the main ones. The most mainstream is to pick up scholars through exams, which is called the Imperial Examination." Chen Hao then roughly explained the content of the Imperial Examination. Although it is a relatively test-taking, it is the most concise method.

When everyone heard this, they started to communicate silently with each other, and then they all looked surprised on their faces. Then they started talking about it. Chen Hao didn't mind at all. The imperial examination was a bit early at this time, but as long as people with knowledge would know that the rapid generation of officials was the best way. Of course, the disadvantages were not lacking, but these were not problems at this time.

"Master, this is a good move, but where is the scope required?" Tian Chou asked silently.

"The words of sages, the study of things and the pursuit of knowledge, astronomy and geography, and ancient poems and sentences can all be used as the scope of the examination. Of course, the way to govern the country also requires the examination. As the last question to raise the score, do you agree with it?"

Everyone was convinced, and they were even more surprised and confused about the lord's thoughts. It was so amazing that all this method was done.

"Okay, then among the northern counties, academies will be opened, and the children of ordinary people can attend for free. As for the wealthy, they will naturally have to pay, so that they can balance their expenses. Although I am a state governor, I am not a saint. You must continue to implement them seriously and establish harmony among the counties. It will also give the common people a hope that their descendants can become officials and shine their families."

"Yes, lord, we understand that we will live up to our high expectations." Everyone naturally knew the lord's intentions and was very excited about this act like a creation. Once it was fully launched, the monopoly position of the gentry would disappear and they would be able to gain more talents.

"Okay, let's prepare now. I hope that after the beginning of spring, I can hold the first spring exam and admit outstanding talents. I will take the big exam every year in the future, and it will be tentatively determined to be a Tongsheng (pass the annual exam), then a scholar (passing the provincial exam), and then a Juren (the first place is called Jie Yuan) (passing the imperial examination/tribute exam)." Chen Hao now said the first three, now the territory is so large, and the latter two are not needed.

When everyone heard this, they all supported each other. It was so beautiful. In this way, the people would be broadened and there would be more and more talents, which would establish a complete foundation for the lord's great cause and consolidate it.

"When learning knowledge, the first thing to learn is the five constants: benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom, and trustworthiness. Then there are the six arts: etiquette, music, monarchy, number, book, and shooting. This is what the ancestors learned. As future generations, we must continue to play and create greater glory so that our ancestors will not disappoint us, and let scholars know why they read, not for the sake of doing evil."

Chen Hao still understands this very well. He has been lost on the earth for too long, and his etiquette has collapsed and his morality has been deteriorated. It has to be said that even the virtues of ancestors are incomplete. How can it be considered as inheriting the will of the ancestors?

"The lord's intention is actually our heart. If you don't learn the Five Constant Virtues, it doesn't matter to others. The lord is at ease. We will definitely try our best to teach the students well and will not let them go to the evil path." Everyone responded, and naturally they were moved by their high hopes for the lord.

"Filial piety is the first priority in everything, and the courage and ambition of thousands of troops. As long as we can perform these two things, it is also a blessing for us. Even if we cannot learn and do anything big, it will not harm others. We can defend our country. It is really the choice of the top. Do you agree?"

"The lord is right. We will inevitably create a harmonious country so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

Chen Hao heard that these were still in the hazy stage and needed to take them step by step and slowly penetrate into people's hearts until they became a habit. Then this feeling would naturally come into being, and every move would be integrated into it and would not change.

"Since ancient times, I will not force you to have a dilemma of loyalty and filial piety. I also hope that you can treat it well and not look at it with a lustful eye. A person's temperament is different, and such a forced force will backfire. You need to learn to understand. Only by understanding can you better grasp it and there will be no dilemma again." Chen Hao said lightly. He did not want this to happen since ancient times.

"The lord is wise, and his subordinates will be loyal to the death and will not forget his lord's teachings." Everyone shouted and bowed immediately.
