Looking at the dark tiger talisman right in front of him, Mi Yang stood up from his seat.

No matter which general handed over his military talisman just now, Mi Yang sat and watched their actions quietly.

But when Wu Yi handed over the tiger talisman in his hand, Mi Yang stood up on his own initiative.

This is partly because of Wu Yi's unusual status, but also because the power represented by the tiger talisman in Wu Yi's hand is far greater than the military talisman handed over by others.

Mi Yang reached out and took the tiger talisman from Wu Yi's hand. When the tiger talisman fell into Mi Yang's hand, he only felt a cold feeling coming from his hand.

Mi Yang rubbed the tiger talisman in her hand carefully with her fingers, her eyes showing unconcealable joy.

Even Mi Yang's confidants who were present all had smiles on their faces as they watched Mi Yang formally take the tiger talisman that represented most of Hanzhong's military power into his hands.

Of course, he was happy, but Mi Yang would not be carried away by the happiness, thereby neglecting Wu Yi, who was still bowing before him.

Although from the actual situation, Wu Yi was willing to hand over the tiger talisman in his hand because he was forced by the general trend created by Mi Yang.

But there are some political rules that need to be followed.

After Mi Yang finished eating the main course, he had to clean the food plate.

After Mi Yang put Wu Yi's tiger talisman into his arms, he leaned slightly in front of everyone and stretched out his hands to help Wu Yi up.

After lifting Wu Yi up and letting him look at her, Mi Yang praised Wu Yi: "You are the master of the country. You cannot be called a minister who has no deep plans for the country, and a man who has no clear righteousness for the entire dynasty."

"Isn't the minister of our Liangzhou who is profound and righteous today none other than Lord Wu?"

Mi Yang's evaluation can be said to be very high, which is equivalent to directly rating Wu Yi as a national scholar.

Compared with Wu Yi's contribution, Mi Yang felt that he was not stingy at all in giving.

After Mi Yang praised Wu Yi in public, many people in the venue showed envy towards Wu Yi.

The current Mi Yang is not an unknown person in the world.

With his current prestige in the world, any comment he makes can increase the reputation of the person being evaluated.

When scholars became officials, one was for fame and the other was for power. Although Wu Yi's power was greatly reduced after handing over the tiger talisman.

But Mi Yang accordingly gave Wu Yi such a high evaluation in front of everyone, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation for Wu Yi.

Even though Wu Yi still felt strong unwillingness in his heart after hearing Mi Yang's praise for him, Mi Yang's move undoubtedly made Wu Yi feel better inside.

Of course, if it is just praise, Mi Yang feels that it is not enough to commend Wu Yi for taking the initiative to hand over military power. At least he must give Wu Yi some real power accordingly.

In politics, unless we are mortal enemies, the important thing is hello, me, hello, everyone.

Therefore, after praising Wu Yi, Mi Yang immediately said in front of everyone: "The Chenliu Wu family is a famous family in the Central Plains.

When Liangzhou was founded, it was a time when everything was waiting to be done and people were hungry for talents.

Now I am consecrating General Zhengbei to work on Liangzhou literature, to be in charge of the literature of a state, and to recruit talented people."

When Mi Yang said these words, Wu Yi raised his head and looked at Mi Yang in surprise. Even many people in the venue were surprised by Mi Yang's appointment.

Biejia, Zhizhong, and Zhushu are known as the three nobles of the state and dynasty, but their full names must be added with the word "engagement".

Therefore, in terms of rank alone, although literary work is not as good as those three positions, it is still considered a very noble position in the state court.

But compared to status, the power held by a literary practitioner is not small.

Literary work, as the name suggests, is to take charge of the cultural affairs of a state.

In today's world, culture is closely related to politics.

The official signature of literary officials who handled official affairs was Xuegong, and Xuegong was often an important source of talents for states and counties.

It can be said that if Wu Yi became a literary practitioner in Liangzhou, then he would have certain human rights in Liangzhou.

Moreover, if a state pastor attaches great importance to the cultural construction of the state and has extraordinary literary ability.

Then the state will not only gradually become a state with prosperous literature, but will even attract many celebrities and students from other places.

Just like Jingzhou back then.

When Liu Biao was alive, Jingzhou was said to have supported tens of thousands of scholars and countless heroes.

Among the respected famous officials in the world today, whether they are from Cao Wei or the Han Dynasty, a large number of them studied in Jingzhou's schools.

This shows the prosperity of Jingzhou Academy at that time.

Song Zhong, who was engaged in literature in Jingzhou at that time, became a great Confucian recognized by people all over the world as being as famous as Zheng Xuan, and his disciples were all over the world.

Not only can you hold certain personnel rights, but you can also train students to win fame all over the world. The position of a literary practitioner is very important.

Because of this, Wu Yi was surprised that Mi Yang asked him to serve as a literary director.

All of Mi Yang's previous behaviors reflected her distrust of him.

But now Wu Yi saw Mi Yang's expression of worshiping him as sincere and not fake, which made Wu Yi feel confused.

Confused, Wu Yi did not immediately accept Mi Yang's offer of worship.

Wu Yi, who had just been tricked by Mi Yang, had to be more careful in dealing with Mi Yang's every move.

Mi Yang saw that Wu Yi was hesitant, so he immediately smiled and said to Wu Yi: "I worshiped Mr. Wu in front of everyone, but Mr. Wu refused to accept it, but you think it is too low to be a literary professional?"

When Mi Yang's seemingly joking words reached Wu Yi's ears, Wu Yi's hesitant mood was immediately dispelled.

Mi Yang's words seemed to be a joke, but in fact they were reminding Wu Yi that he was praying in front of everyone, so there was no need to doubt that his worship was fake.

This was Mi Yang's reminder to Wu Yi after he saw the reason for his hesitation.

Of course Wu Yi, who has a high political EQ, heard the reminder in Mi Yang's words, so after listening to Mi Yang's words, he immediately bowed to Mi Yang and said:

"I accept my order."

Since Mi Yang had no other intentions and taking up a literary position would be of benefit to him, Wu Yi had no reason not to accept it.

When Mi Yang saw that Wu Yi agreed to his request, he smiled and personally helped Wu Yi back to his original position.

Mi Yang's behavior seemed to outsiders to be a very profound courtesy to Wu Yi.

And Mi Yang's move of letting Wu Yi be the literary director made everyone present feel that Mi Yang was a generous and benevolent person.

After all, Wu Yi's hesitation just now to hand over military power was clearly seen by everyone.

With such a criminal record, Mi Yang not only did not blame Wu Yi, but also entrusted him with important tasks. This behavior is commendable.

Of course, what everyone didn't expect was that after Wu Yi took his seat, Mi Yang stood in the middle of the banquet and announced in front of everyone:

"Wu Jun is a man of the country who understands righteousness, and the other ministers are also loyal ministers who serve the public good. Since they are loyal ministers, how can we not reward him?"

"After the banquet is over, I will send people to the ministers' mansions one by one to reward them with gold and silver!"

When Mi Yang's order to give out a large reward came out, joy appeared on the faces of everyone present.

They originally thought that perhaps only Wu Yi would be rewarded, but they did not expect that they, who were far inferior to Wu Yi in status, would also be rewarded.

Although the rewards they received were gold and silver, this already made everyone very satisfied.

As a result, the banquet suddenly burst into warm thanksgiving voices.

The warm and tidal waves of thanksgiving swept away the heavy and tense atmosphere in the banquet just now.

Wu Yi returned to his seat and sat down, helplessly closing his eyes deeply.

After Wu Yi closed his eyes, Mi Yang ordered the banquet to start again.

Under Mi Yang's order, the dance music at the banquet reappeared, and the atmosphere quickly became lively again.

Even because of Mi Yang's generous reward, the atmosphere at the banquet was now more relaxed and intoxicating than before.

The relaxed and intoxicating atmosphere that pervaded the venue quietly concealed the truth of a political power grab at the banquet just now.

Mi Yang's drink tonight to release his military power is a manifestation of the unity of Liangzhou and is by no means a power grab.

Even if this incident reaches Chengdu, Liu Bei and others will think so.

...

As late at night approached, the banquet in the State Shepherd's Mansion gradually ended.

All the emperors and ministers from Liangzhou who participated in the banquet tonight drank a lot of wine.

After the banquet, all the ministers returned to their homes with the support of their entourage.

Among the ministers, the Wu brothers were the first ones to return to the mansion because the mansion was nearby.

But after returning to the mansion, the drunkenness on Wu Yi and Wu Ban's faces disappeared instantly.

Wu Ban consciously pushed away his entourage, and he personally helped Wu Yi into his dormitory.

After entering the dormitory, Wu Ban could no longer hide the anger in his heart. He said to Wu Yi:

"Mi Zisheng is too bold and reckless. Your Majesty personally granted your brother's military power. How can he just take it back?"

Wu Yi did not respond to Wu Ban's complaints.

Because he didn't know how to respond.

Seeing that Wu Yi didn't respond, Wu Ban couldn't help but raise his voice and shouted: "Brother, we can't swallow this breath in vain. Since Mi Zisheng is unjust, we can't remain indifferent."

Seeing Wu Ban's angry look, Wu Yi raised his eyes slightly and asked Wu Ban: "Then what do you think we should do?"
