Chapter 806: Three Kingdoms
"How do you discern talents?" Zhao asked the maid.
Since ancient times, China has talked about the rule of man, and this distinction is extremely important.
Moreover, the so-called art of imperial ministers and people that Wang Ju began to talk about is that its primary premise is to know people.
Even Zhao Ji outside the window was curious and listened.
Wang Ju said: "Your Highness, it is much easier to discern people's talents than to look at their hearts. ”
Indeed, it is really difficult to see through a person, and the human mind is constantly changing with the changes in the environment and experience.
"Your Highness, the reason why it is easy is thanks to the two ancestors, it is they who have introduced the grinding system, and it has become easier to distinguish the talents of ministers."
"Why?"
"Your Highness, an ordinary mediocre low-level official, can you quickly be promoted?"
"Difficult." Zhao Fu immediately replied, indicating that this young man's qualifications are indeed very good, and mediocre officials can also be promoted, but they can only mix qualifications, which will be very slow.
"The officials who can be quickly promoted have some outstanding performances, of course, some officials rely on the crooked ramp of the blink and so on, it can't be counted. However, the officials who are normally promoted must have some special political achievements, such as loving the people, establishing education, moralization, economy, military, farmland and water conservancy, or others. Then the court deliberately transferred them to their good official positions as officials, and it can be seen whether he is really good at this aspect, and it is also a process of further polishing. ”
"In this way, the country will get talents from all sides, and then according to their talents, put them in the right position, and all aspects will be able to govern greatly."
Great governance in all aspects. The country will undoubtedly be governed as well.
"It's still hard......"
"Of course. A parent wants the whole family to live in harmony and prosperity. It's very difficult, and Da Song is a super family composed of 20 million small families. Your Royal Highness, this is not something you can ponder for the time being, and the minister will talk about the way of Han Gaozu again. ”
Not only about Liu Bang's mastery of people, but also a lot in this lecture.
even analyzed Liu Bang's character, if you look at the history books, Liu Bang seems to be useless, and he was a local ruffian when he was young. When he competed with Xiang Yu for domination of the world, he didn't even want his father, wife and children, and after he became the emperor, he was good at killing heroes, even if he was suspicious of a right-hand man like Xiao He.
But is that really the case?
If Liu Bang was useless, why did the Lu family marry their daughter to him back then, and why did so many villagers support him and respond to him when he uncovered the uprising, and so many people followed him.
If it was really vicious and ruthless, why was the Han Dynasty able to establish a successful state, and for a long time became a model of internal governance in a feudal state. And in just over a hundred years, the population at the peak of the Western Han Dynasty may have exceeded the population of Tianbao?
Actually, it's not vicious. It is the determination of those who do great things.
Of course, in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, this was an extremely important history, not only Liu Bang's character and the way of royalty, but also other aspects.
So Wang Ju analyzed this history from many aspects, such as the military, population, the composition of various classes, agriculture, technology, and economy.
Zhao Ji listened outside the window, and felt that many aspects suddenly became clear.
"Your Highness, that's all for today." Wang Judao.
Wang Ju walked out.
Zhao Ji didn't have time to avoid it, so he had to sneer: "Wang Qing, I have been here a long time ago, but I was fascinated. ”
What should I do, I can't be an emperor who loves to lie.
"Your Majesty complimented me."
"You should revise the history books."
This is not a mockery of Wang Ju, in ancient times, those who could participate in the revision of history books itself showed the ruler's recognition of the writing of the book repairers.
And this sentence is also from Zhao Ji's heart.
"Zizhi Tongjian" is really good, but Zhao Ji always feels that something is wrong, not that large section of the minister......
After listening to Wang Jukai's speech, he suddenly became enlightened.
There is a simple example, such as the Anshi Rebellion, if you look at the rule of capital, then there is only one, Li Longji is mediocre, and Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, the two traitorous ministers, misled the country.
Actually, this is not true.
The real cause of the Anshi Rebellion was the expansion of the population during the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, which led to the complete collapse of the partial Juntian system (although the Tang Dynasty implemented the Juntian system, but not all of them implemented this system). The collapse of the Juntian system led to the corruption of the government military system.
There is no arable land left, so do the soldiers have the heart to fight? But in order to open up the border, Li Longji had no choice but to set up a feudal town, and with a feudal town, there was the soil for An Lushan's rebellion.
But in Zijiri, I don't want to see it.
Of course, Sima Guang is good at power scheming, and he is poor in other aspects, even if he writes, he can't write well. But then again, if Sima Guangzhen wrote it like this, how long will this capital govern?
Therefore, as a textbook, without writing or fluency, Zizhi is above the 24th History. But as a real reference for rulers, or a source book for historians to study, it is not as good as the 24th History.
At least in Zhao Ji's heart, Zizhi did record almost all the major events, but only recorded, or there were some analyses, but these analyses seemed to be true, or they were not analyzed clearly at all.
That's why this sentence is coming.
Wang Ju said: "Your Majesty, first of all, the minister is selective, such as the Western Han Dynasty, and the next time, the minister will tell His Royal Highness about the rebellion of the Seven Kings." ”
"Huh?" Zhao Ji was puzzled, because there was still the Lu family's dictatorship and the rule of Wenjing.
"Your Majesty, the minister uses history as a metaphor for the present, and only selects some more representative historical events to speak, and the reason why he chose the Rebellion of the Seven Kings is to focus on analyzing the distribution of power."
"The distribution of rights?"
"Under the imperfection of the Han Dynasty's various systems, Han Gaozu had no choice but to use various kings with the same surname to assist the royal family, which caused the Seven Kings Rebellion. But the same surname Wang cut the domain, everyone thought that progress had been made, and the relatives came again. When I arrived in the Eastern Han Dynasty, not only my relatives came, but even the eunuchs came. ”
But China has not solved this problem well since ancient times, not only the imperial system, but also the centralization of power, as well as the harm caused by the official standard. The money is there. The villa has a ......
However, it cannot be said that centralization is bad. If a clean government can be guaranteed, then the centralized system has its own efficiency and policy coherence compared with the decentralized system. But this system, under the ancient imperial system, was more harmful and more difficult to distribute power.
But let's not talk about this kind of king giant in the back.
"That's true."
Then the minister talked about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, his abolition of the hundred schools, the exclusive respect for Confucianism, and his opening. and whether Sang Hongyang is merit or fault. The fourth lecture is Huo Guang and Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, mainly talking about the impact of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty's poor background on his future, and even the ministers may dare to use His Majesty's life experience as an example. The fifth lecture is about Wang Mang, not about Wang Mang's rebellion, but about why he initiated the New Deals, and the rights and wrongs of these New Policies, in fact, from the current point of view, many of the New Policies are right. Of course, if he makes a mistake, he will make a mistake because he is a usurper. The New Deal was too hasty again. Therefore, this priority is another aspect that is emphasized in the fifth lecture. ”
"Can I sit in on it?" Zhao Ji was more interested in this.
"Your Majesty is the king, the minister is the minister, the minister speaks for His Royal Highness, and Your Majesty listens, why not? Secondly, the minister's energy is limited, the minister is an auxiliary position, and the main position is still the ruler of the Great Song Dynasty. Even if he goes to the other side, he will not study history books, but will study mathematics. However, if Your Majesty feels that he attaches great importance to it, after the minister arrives on the other side, he can further select more than 100 major events from the past dynasties and make an in-depth analysis. Then let the lieutenant envoy bring it back to the capital and let His Majesty and His Highness read it. Your Majesty, the minister went to the other side, and he is still a courtier of the Great Song Dynasty......"
"Wang Qing, I'm still the same me."
"The minister knows, but His Majesty should also see the importance of this mathematics, and the minister also wants to open one." Wang Ju said that he wanted to be one of the hundred sons of all families, but the hundred sons of all families did not mean that he was Confucius, Confucius was a saint, but Mozi Xunzi and others were not saints, and with Wang Ju's status and influence, he wanted to be a hundred sons of all families, which was not considered overstepping, so Wang Ju said bluntly.
"Prince," Zhao Ji laughed and said, Prince, didn't he take advantage of Wang Ju a lot.
"The minister is ashamed, but the minister is indeed one of His Majesty's people." Wang Ju said, bowing and saying goodbye.
Zhao Ji walked in and asked his son, "Maid, do you understand?" ”
"In some places, the ministers didn't understand."
In fact, Wang Ju tried his best to analyze the most profound truth in the most simple language, but Zhao Maid was finally small.
Zhao Ji touched his son's head, this is not as Wang Ju thought, in fact, Zhao Ji stopped eating alcohol at Wang Ju's insistence, and often ate some fruits, plus the country is getting better and better, and his mood is comfortable, which continues his life, but overall, his body continues to deteriorate.
But Zhao Maid is still very young, so Zhao Ji's current thoughts are to hope that his son can grow up quickly.
Of course, if Zhao Ji can live for more than ten years, Zhao Ji will be young and strong at that time, and it will be another mood.
"Maid, listen carefully and think carefully, Wang Taibao is speaking with his heart," Zhao Ji turned to the eunuch serving on the side and said, "Record everything that Taibao said just now." ”
Even I feel that I have benefited a lot, and I am a son.
What Wang Ju said must be recorded so that it can be read from time to time in the future.
A few days later, Wang Ju spoke again about the Rebellion of the Seven Kings.
The more Zhao Ji listened, the more he felt amazing, so when it came to the third lecture, Zhao Ji invited some important ministers to the Ying Pavilion.
Wang Ju said he had a headache.
In fact, when he talks about this, he is not only using the past as a metaphor for the present, but actually talking about how to be an outstanding person. It's the way of kings, not ministers, what are you inviting these bigwigs to do?
Wang Ju had no choice but to bow his hand to everyone.
Then I found a brush and wrote a few lines of strange words, which was not the strange font written by Wang Ju when he deliberately cultivated Xiao Su's calligraphy, so as to broaden Xiao Su's or Da Su's thinking in the future.
They are indeed strange words, and then Wang Ju put down his pen and said: "Why has Chinese civilization always been ahead of the world, the people are industrious and intelligent, and there is the legacy left by the ancestors, this heritage is not only the roads and water conservancy that have been pioneered, but also others, such as words." Let's look at these kinds of scripts again, they are the foreign scripts, also known as alphabet scripts. What is the wisdom of this writing? ”
In later generations, the Celestial Empire was relatively backward, and the world closed it to it, and even preferred the factory to go bankrupt rather than export high-tech products to the Celestial Empire.
As a result, a large group of well-known elites and people who worship foreigners have emerged.
As long as it is foreign, it is good, and even the moon is a foreign round. Even the ancestral culture ridiculed it.
It is appropriate to learn advanced knowledge. You can fall into this misunderstanding. Not only is it about national integrity, but it is also a big mistake.
For example, Chinese painting, how beautiful the artistic conception is, or the lack of realism, realism, go to photography!
Another example is flower arrangement, Western flower arrangement is a patchwork of a lot of flowers, but Chinese-style flower arrangement. A flower and a leaf come and go is a beautiful picture.
There is also this text, there is a cold joke, foreign graduate students continue to memorize words, not memorize, no, but Chinese as long as they remember the common four or five thousand Chinese characters, they can play all over the world.
Chinese characters are not only convenient and efficient, but they can also be called a very intelligent script, such as grass, and the golden word grass is a pattern of a dog's tail grass, such as wither. When you see this word, you know that the grass and trees are withered and yellow. Changing to other words, does it have this effect?
And a whole host of other advantages.
Wang Ju gave some examples and said: "So we have to respect our ancestors, but what is respect, not burning incense to worship, if that, the ancestors will be so angry that they can't close their eyes under the nine springs." If you want to respect your ancestors, the best way is to dare to surpass and do whatever it takes to make the country and this nation richer and stronger, and the people's lives more and more stable, which is the respect for your ancestors. Okay, let me talk about the Three Kingdoms for you. ”
"Didn't you say Emperor Wu of Han?" Zhao asked strangely.
"Your Majesty, the princes are not disgusted to come to the audit, and the ministers will be more selective." Wang Ju said.
If you want to talk about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, you can't avoid it, the first thing to talk about is to open the border, but in Wang Ju's heart, at that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty may have made the people suffer a lot in order to open the border, but it was worth it, so the whole nation took Han as the number, and it was impossible to connect with Han Gaozu and Wenjing Emperor, which was actually the national self-confidence cultivated by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. But this article, if it is said in the weak Song Dynasty, it will be controversial.
The second is to abolish the hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone, not that Confucianism is bad, on the contrary, Mohism is broad, Legalism is harsh, and Taoism is inactive, and it is also the best choice to choose Confucianism as a governance country.
Guan Jian is Dong Zhongshu and other Confucian scholars in order to tempt Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to respect Confucianism, deliberately emphasized the order of respect and inferiority in Confucianism, but brought Confucianism to the other side of the bad side.
This remark will inevitably lead to some controversy.
The last is Sang Hong Yang, not what Sima Qian and Sima Guang said, Sang Hong Yang's financial management was very important in the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and even if there was no Sang Hong Yang's financial management, maybe the Han Dynasty would have some uprisings because of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
However, when Wang Ju said it, can everyone not argue?
Therefore, he directly jumped over the history of the Han Dynasty and talked about the Three Kingdoms.
The Three Kingdoms are very familiar to future generations, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Indeed, there are many heroes in the Three Kingdoms, and because of the stalemate in the Three Kingdoms, whether it is Cao Wei or Liu Shu, they attach great importance to people's livelihood, and some advanced agricultural tools have also appeared.
But in fact, in addition to this, the Three Kingdoms have caused great harm to China, think about how many people were in the Three Kingdoms, but in order to compete for hegemony, often a war reaches hundreds of thousands of troops, just like the famous Peking Opera "Dingjun Mountain", how powerful, Liu Bei defeated Cao Cao and got Hanzhong, in fact, for this battle, Bashu even women were forcibly recruited to escort grain and grass materials, if this situation appeared in the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that Wang Ju could let Wenchen tear alive and eat. Therefore, when the Western Jin Dynasty unified the world, there was not much population.
What's even more tragic is that the unifier is Sima Yan, who is purely cheap with Lao Tzu, but he is a very incapable person, look at the rich people of the Western Jin Dynasty, behind the background of this rich fight, it means that the upper class people are rich and unkind, so although the Western Jin Dynasty has been unified for a period of time, the people have not recovered well.
Then the fool Jin Hui Emperor ascended the throne, and the Eight Kings Rebellion further weakened the population of the Han people, and the Han people did not have many people left, so the Sixteen Kingdoms quickly came one by one.
Wang Ju is not as bright and upright as everyone thinks, but his love for the people is unparalleled.
And it is even more of an angry youth of a nation.
Therefore, when it came to the depths, Wang Ju kept sighing as he spoke.
But in ancient and modern exchanges, there have been many such views.
And no one has dissected history in all its aspects.
can not blindly depreciate Zhao Ji, although he is a miniature version of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, not as good as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but among many emperors. It can also be considered to be above average.
Even he was fascinated. And it's these ministers.
Some ministers even rejoiced with Wang Juxi. With the king of great sorrow and sorrow.
It seemed that more than two hours had passed in the blink of an eye, and Wang Ju said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Your Lords, you have made a fool of yourself, so let's stop here today." ”
Dozens of ministers are still unsatisfied.
But it did go on for a long time, and everyone had to come out.
Xiao Su said: "Taibao, Jun's talent." Unparalleled in the world. ”
But it is true that Wang Ju's thinking is rarely matched now, not only the fingers given to him in the era of the knowledge explosion in his previous life, but also the reflection brought about by so many years of being in the top position, the combination of the two, so today's lecture on the Three Kingdoms, so many profound thoughts and insights appeared, which brought a strong impact to dozens of important ministers.
"Ziyu. Complimented," Wang Ju said indifferently.
…………
"Tiny. Why are you running away? Wang Zhen said unhappily.
Xiaoxiao watched Wang Ju enter the palace from a distance, knowing that she had made a fuss, she was angry.
shrewd all his life, but he made a crucial mistake, and was inserted inexplicably, just plug it, anyway, he is a turbid person, as long as he gives money, the east can also be inserted, the west can also be inserted, at most a few times for nothing...... But he also sued the prime minister of the dynasty.
So he secretly hired a doctor and killed the fetus.
I don't dare to delay it any longer, the current tire technology, if it drags on any longer, it is not called a tire, but a fatal thing.
In this way, he also suffered a lot, but he did not care about recuperation, and after only a few days of recuperation, he immediately packed his belongings and prepared to flee to the south.
However, before the people got on the boat, they were caught by the yamen and taken to Kaifeng Mansion.
Where to escape, but Wang Zhen did not send someone to monitor her, but to pass through her to see if he could find the person who pretended to be Wang Ju.
"People's girl, people's girl......" This time Xiaoxiao is not as straightforward as the last time.
"Xiaoxiao, you envy the concubine of the Taibao family, but do you know that the concubine is pure and good, not only treats people and things, is dignified and generous, but also follows the Taibao from south to north, born and died."
"She can do it, and so can the slaves."
Xiaoxiao changed to a slave family, why is it a folk girl in front, because it is stained with Wang Ju's fishy anger. Now I can't get my hands on Wang Ju's fishy anger, so I have to call myself a slave again.
Wang Zhen was even more disgusted.
Not to mention anything else, although Qiongniang used to be a prostitute, she was also a cold and innocent person, like you, a turbid person who was a philistine, how could you enter the eyes of the Taibao.
However, in order to catch the fake Wang Ju, he still said slowly: "Xiaoxiao, the integrity of the Taibao is unparalleled in the world." ”
"The ethics of the Taibao?" Little dumbfounded.
Wang Ju had a very good impression in the hearts of ordinary people, otherwise Wang Ju would not have just returned to the capital, and the people of the entire capital were in a sensation, feeling that the moon was particularly bright that night. And now Wang Ju's impression in the hearts of ordinary people is getting better and better.
However, even ordinary people don't think that Wang Ju is well-behaved, and can only say that he is a very capable minister, both civil and military, and a pillar of the Great Song Dynasty. Especially the families of the forbidden army whose husbands are on the border in the northwest, with Wang Ju here, they all feel that they can sleep peacefully with peace of mind.
But what ethics does Wang Ju have?
"You don't understand," Wang Zhen muttered, he suddenly thought of the opening of the Great Former Heavenly Wang Ju, and when he talked about the excitement, Wang Ju said, "Princes, look at the Three Kingdoms, you may be able to understand my mood and some practices." Nowadays, the peace time is not easy to come by, but it is more difficult to start a business, it is more difficult to govern the country, it is even more difficult to govern the country, governing the country is like sailing against the current, if you do not advance, you will retreat, and if you are not careful, there will be a crisis in the Great Song Dynasty. Maybe some of my practices are really radical, but so what, Heng Mei coldly pointed at Qianfu, bowed his head and was willing to be a son of a cow. For the sake of the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty, although there are tens of millions of people, I am willing to go.
Hearing this, Wang Zhen's heart was like waves surging at that time, and he almost tore his clothes with excitement.
This is great loyalty, great goodness, and great integrity.
But this kind of big mind, how can a philistine prostitute understand, but Wang Zhen sneered in his heart, you still want to compare with the little concubine of the Taibao family, it is that kind of concubine, after entering the Wang family for a long time, she was accepted by the Taibao, with your virtue, even if you enter the door of the Wang family, you will be thrown out.
But it was useless to say these things to her, so Wang Zhen said directly: "Xiaoxiao, no matter what the integrity of the Taibao is, you are slandering the Taibao." ”
"Fu Yin, the slave family is also being used."
"The intentional murderer deserves death, but the negligent murderer is not guilty?"
Saying this, Xiao Xiao's body trembled with fright.
"So-and-so gives you a chance to atone for your sins."
"Please give me orders."
"You let out the wind and spread the truth."
"Will there be anyone who is bad for the slave family," Xiao Xiao asked worriedly. This shows that she is still very shrewd, and she immediately thought of Guan Jian.
"You don't worry about slandering the sins, but you worry about this...... What a joke. ”
"But, but ......" Xiaoxiao said in his heart, even if he slandered the Taibao, he is still a reasonable person, but these Xiaoxiao seem to be doing everything, and they take the initiative to spread the truth, and they will be embarrassed, anyway, this face can't be kept in the capital, but if these people are angered, what will happen? But she could think of it, but she couldn't say it. (To be continued.) )
