Chapter 241 241
When Wu Qi's status declines, they will definitely leave Wu Qi with them, and even more so fall into the ground.
After all, they and Wu Qi do not belong to the same path at all, one is from the scholar clan, and the other is from the Patriotic Untouchables.
At this time, Qu Yuan of the Chu State visited Guan Zhong of the Qi State.
The two talked about the form of the empire, how Qi Chu should unite, and how to support each other.
The conversation between the bureaucrats also attracted a lot of famous people in Luoyang City, and they hoped to talk with these officials, be appreciated by the high-ranking officials of this vassal state, become their protégés, and thus soar to prominence.
Most of the people who followed the princes to attend the emperor's funeral were extremely popular ministers in the vassal states, and it was quite difficult to become their disciples, and it was even more difficult to become their disciples and be reused.
These princes and courtiers talked here, and the scholars of Luoyang City spent money to enter this place and visit these ministers, hoping to find a Bole.
And the son of the imperial prime minister Shen Jiang, Shen Buxian also came here, and when Guan Zhong was talking to Qu Yuan, Wu Zixu beside him left.
There are many famous people in Luoyang who come here, and he sees if there are talented people who become his own guests.
Although Wu Zixu's status is not as good as Guan Zhong and Zhang Tianshang, he also followed Qi Xiaobai to participate in the War against Yan and the Central Plains, and his status is also well-known in Qi State.
At this time, Wu Zixu saw a young man, where to talk freely, his theory, several ministers next to him just nodded, and some people put forward different opinions.
This young man is Shen Buxian, Wu Zixu walked beside him and listened, and nodded his head.
Shen Buxiao's teachings on the law, how to use the law to strengthen the country, he told these ministers this idea.
And Wu Zixu on the side looked at Shen Buxian: "Little brother, what you said is very reasonable, use the law to strengthen the country, use the law to restrain people, so that they dare not make trouble, and make the country safe!" ”
"That's right, the country is safe, the country is strong!" Shen Buxian said to Wu Zixu.
"It's just that your Excellency's theory is difficult to implement, you make it simple for the law to restrain the poor, but it is quite difficult to restrain the Chevalier clan!" Wu Zixu said to Shen Buxian.
This set of theories of Shen Bu Harm is implemented throughout a vassal state, and anyone who violates the law must be punished, which touches the interests of the scholars.
If it is implemented, if the monarch is not strong, it will launch a rebellion of the scholars, how to implement this set in the Chu State, this may be a direct chaos in the Chu State, after all, the Chu State is the strongest country of the Shi clan, and it is also the most loose country.
Of course, if it is implemented in the Qi country, it can be done, after all, the reform of the Qi country, the Shi clan forces have been strongly suppressed, and a rebellion has broken out in addition to anti-corruption, but after the suppression, the Shi clan forces were basically completely suppressed by Qi Xiaobai.
The power of the Shi clan was suppressed, but the Qi State had the same situation as the Song State, that is, the merchant class was somewhat strong, and the merchants were attached to the Shi clan in the past, but Qi Xiaobai suppressed the Shi clan, and the merchants gradually became bigger.
However, Zhang Tianshang is also ready to start a knife from the merchants, although the merchants are getting stronger, but their foundation cannot be compared with the scholars, after all, the scholars have experienced several generations of business, and the roots are very deep, and the merchants have few generations of roots in the Qi country, and the scholars with deep roots have been defeated, how can the merchants resist it?
Therefore, it is basically easy for Zhang Tianshang to suppress businessmen, and Xiaobai will also very much agree with Zhang Tianshang's suppression of businessmen, after all, Qi Xiaobai will not want Qi to become like Song State.
Although Shen Buxian's idea is good, it can also be implemented in Qi State, but Qi State is carrying out reforms, if two reform plans suddenly appear, then who should be used?
The reform of Qi was jointly discussed by Qi Xiaobai, Zhang Tianshang, and Guan Zhong, suppressing the scholars, collecting the central power, enriching the treasury by the way, and then strengthening the army.
Qi Xiaobai believes that as long as the treasury is full, the army is strictly trained, and there is money, then the country will be strong.
As for how to govern the people, that is what Confucianism, the first school of Qi should do, although this group of people Qi Xiaobai doesn't like it, most of them have a mouth, and they pay attention to benevolence, righteousness and morality every day, and they can't do a few things.
But Qi Xiaobai has to say that their method of governing the country is very good, and it is also because Qi has this big faction, and there has been no civil uprising in Qi State.
Although there was a rebellion, it was caused by the nobles, not by the people.
However, Shen Buxian has such a theoretical thought, and looking at his greed, Wu Zixu believes that this Shen Buharm is a talented person, and he wants to recruit him and work for him.
Wu Zixu's own power in Qi is very weak, he is not like Guan Zhong, Qi Xiaobai worships as his father-in-law, and his family is gradually getting bigger, not like Zhang Tianshang, who has been mixed in the officialdom of Qi for so many years, and all the major scholars have to sell Zhang Tianshang a face.
is not like Tian Dan, although Tian Dan was placed in Yingqiu by Qi Xiaobai, saying that the placement is actually monitoring, and he is not allowed to return to Jiaodong, but the generals of Jiaodong also followed him to Yingqiu.
Tian Dan also gave up going back to sit in Jiaodong, but thought about how to mix in the officialdom of Qi State, and his subordinates also had a half-official position under his promotion.
Of course, he is the Hou Ye of Jiaodong, and the people under his command have people who can recruit good fighters and have talents to govern the world, so it is very easy to mix up an official and a half-job.
After they followed Tian Dan to Yingqiu, they formed a faction, and the people of this faction were all officials from Jiaodong, although they were not as powerful as Zhang Tianshang and Guan Zhong, but they could also mix in the officialdom of Qi State.
And he Wu Zixu looks pitiful, although he was a very popular minister in Wu back then, but his subordinates are basically dead, and now he is all small characters, and he has no great talent, just a Luo Fangshi, who is a fierce general with ten thousand enemies, and is loved by Qi Xiaobai.
Therefore, Wu Zixu has always hoped to recruit doormen to expand his power, but doormen are easy to find, but talents are hard to find, and there are basically no people he can really fancy Wu Zixu.
But today, he has a trace of love for this Shen Buxian, and wants to take him for his own use.
Wu Zixu looked at Shen Buxian and said, "I am Wu Zixu of Qi State, how about the little brother joining my account?" In the future, the little brothers in Qi will definitely be reused! ”
Shen Buxian looked at Wu Zixu, clasped his fists and saluted: "Thank you, Mr. for your love, Xiaosheng has a choice!" ”
After Wu Zixu heard Shen Buxian's words, he sighed helplessly, feeling pity: "That, it's really a pity!" ”
Shen Buxian looked at a man in armor in the distance, who was walking towards this side, Shen Buxian smiled at the corner of his mouth, this person was the person he was waiting for.
Shen Bu Shen walked forward and saluted the armored man: "Xiao Sheng Shen Bu Harm, meet the general!" ”
The man looked at Shen Buxian, just nodded, and then waved his hand to signal him to leave.
And after Wu Zixu saw this armored man, he knew where Shen wanted to take refuge.
