Chapter Fifty-Three Order
Just when Su Zhao was gradually approaching the "Great Purge" in his heart, a look of understanding appeared on Chen Shao's face, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the Inspection Department has established a system. I will quickly draw up a plan after I return.
system."
"Now the country of Su is riddled with bad governance and many wastes are waiting to be revitalized. Chen Qing has everything to do." Su Zhao said solemnly, sighing from the bottom of his heart. He felt that there were too few talents available in the country. If he had the fighting power of a certain organization,
, swept across Tianyuan, the Immortal Sect surrendered, destroyed mountains and temples, swept away all ghosts and monsters...
"I recently issued an order seeking talents and built a Hongwen Hall. What does Chen Qing think?" Su Zhao asked.
If you don’t have talents, then train them yourself.
When Chen Shao heard this, he looked at the young monarch opposite who was working hard to govern. He was silent for a moment, thinking about his words, and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid there will be resistance from Duke Jing in this matter."
Respecting and promoting the Tao must be the key to governing the country.
Su Zhao's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately understood Chen Shao's subtext, and said loudly: "How can the teacher object to recruiting talents and promoting Confucian classics? Teacher, he has no reason to object."
Jing Hongdao had no eloquent reason for his objection, but he had a motive for his objection.
When Su Zhao was studying history in his previous life, Li Si's "Book of Remonstrance and Expulsion of Guests" seemed to be caused by the Zheng Guoqu incident. In fact, the root cause was that new dignitaries from various countries usurped the inherent interests of Qin's ministers.
There are only so many positions in a court, one carrot and one pit. Scholars from the Six Kingdoms occupied the positions that originally belonged to the Dukes of Qin.
Naturally, the Duke of Qin wanted to take the opportunity to speak to the King of Qin and expel these scholars from the six countries.
Looking at the past and knowing the present, Su Zhao issued an order to seek talents. On top of selecting and appointing officials, it would inevitably encroach on the interests of the original ministers of the Su Kingdom.
As for Jing Hongdao, he may have selfish motives, but I am still worried that it will intensify the conflicts in the Su court and trigger a new wave of turmoil.
But now Su Zhao has seen all the ministers in the dynasty, and found that except for a few people who are useful, they are all arrogant and domineering people who have no ambition to make progress. The Su country is so big, and in the end, Chen Shao can only keep up.
his political thinking.
this……
Chen Shao, who was on the other side of the room, said in a deep voice: "If you can convince Duke Jing, it would be best if you ask Duke Jing to draft a request for talents."
Judging from his origins, Chen Shao was also a foreign nobleman. If he advocated issuing an order to seek talents, the conflict with the Duke of Su would be obvious. Obviously, it would be better to let Jing Hongdao raise the matter.
"Tomorrow we will meet to persuade the teacher, and we can raise the matter at the court meeting tomorrow, as well as the Privy Council, the Chancellery and other matters." Su Zhao nodded, and immediately understood the connection between Chen Shao's words, and said at the same time
, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, this kind of tacit understanding between the king and his ministers thinking in the same place and working hard in the same place is indeed a bit like a meeting in an extraordinary situation.
Chen Shao nodded and said no more.
The two drank another cup of tea. Su Zhao suddenly remembered something and turned to ask: "By the way, Chen Qing, where does Shentu Fan live now? I have recently planned to visit this person."
He has not been idle these days. He asked someone to find some information about Shen Tufan. After taking a look at it, he couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised.
Because Shentu Fan was famous in the northern border. He once led an army to conquer the country and conquered more than 50 cities in Qi. He was well-known in other countries. However, such a great talent in Zhuguo was originally from Su.
As for Shentu Fan, when he was a captain of the Yan Kingdom, he served three generations of kings of the Yan Kingdom. His martial arts training is said to be at the level of a master. It is said that such talents of the Zhu Kingdom should be relied on by the Yan Lord and should not be forced to do so.
The ending of leaving the country and living in seclusion.
Looking closely at the reason, the problem lies in the fact that the new King of Yan is timid in appearance, lenient on the outside and taboo on the inside, and he also listens to the slanderous words of treacherous people. He is very suspicious of Shentu Fan, who has the military and political power of the Yan State and has great achievements in shaking the master. He wants to get rid of him quickly and use his tactics.
After the power was cut off, Shentu Fan became disheartened, so he took his tribe back to his ancestral home, bought land, and could not leave.
After hearing Su Zhao's inquiry, Chen Shao said: "Shentu Fan lives in Sanhuai Village in the east of Wenyi City."
Su Zhao said with emotion: "I don't want the great sage to be by my side, so I will pay him a visit tomorrow."
Compared to Shentu Fan, Chen Shao seemed to want to recommend Yan Chang to enter the court of the Su Kingdom. He said in a deep voice: "Yan Chang from Qi has the talent to govern the country and secure the country. Now he lives in a cottage on the Qingtian River. If you want to succeed, your Majesty will achieve your ambition."
, with their help, we will surely be as powerful as a tiger."
This is the third time that Chen Shao has recommended Yan Chang, which shows that he has high regard for him.
Su Zhao knew that Chen Shao was a good person, so he would not make a mistake. He frowned and said seriously: "Chen Qing strongly recommends this person. If he has such talent, why would he fail in Chu State?"
In fact, he also had doubts about Yan Chang, because not all those who advocated reform were Shang Yang.
Speaking of which, the Chu State was the country of Su Zhao's mother in this life. Even now, the current King of Chu, Xiong Sheng, is still his cousin in terms of seniority.
When Chen Shao heard this, a trace of sigh appeared on his slightly dark face, and he sighed: "Your Majesty, you don't know. The Duke of Chu has huge power and many constraints. King Ling of Chu at that time was also wavering, and he rejected the method advocated by Yan Chang.
How can we not cause trouble if we are so procrastinating and hesitating?"
King Ling of Chu, Ling is not a good posthumous title. If you are not diligent, you are called Ling, if you are not diligent, you are called Ling.
King Ling of Chu reused Yan Chang's reform, allowing the Duke of Chu to release his seclusion, escape from his household, and clear out his father's land. As a result, this radical operation greatly damaged the interests of the Duke of Chu, and later even led to a palace coup. King Ling's brother was
With the support of the Duke of Chu, he rebelled, stormed into the palace, imprisoned King Ling, and starved him to death. It is really sad that the king of a generation of overlords was reduced to the point of starving to death.
However, this civil strife did not end. The younger brother of King Ling of Chu had just succeeded to the throne for a year, and the throne was still not yet warm. King Ling's prince Xiong Sheng united with the border troops to attack the capital of Chu Kingdom Ying, and regained his soul.
Wang Yimai.
However, this civil strife led to the decline of Chu State's national power, so that its influence in other countries in Yuzhou was greatly reduced. The ambitious Zheng State took advantage of every opportunity and took the opportunity to destroy Chen State, including its land and population, and its strength suddenly increased.
It seems that it has the potential to dominate Yuzhou.
It was against this background that the Soviet Union’s national war ten years ago took place.
Su Zhao was silent for a moment and said: "After visiting Shentu Fan, you and Gusi go down to meet this Yan Chang. Remember not to make a big show of it."
As the saying goes, some things can only be done but not said.
Watching Chen Shao leave, Su Zhao also left the Ganlu Palace. Holding the sword on his waist, he stood in the corridor and looked out. At this moment, in the palace garden, the lanterns were turned on, and the glowing lights extended to the corridor. The heavy sound of the Forbidden Army's armor leaves could occasionally be heard.
Looking up, a bright moon hangs high, casting the shadow of the majestic palace. Among the flowers and grass under the sycamore tree, fireflies light up in the summer night.
Su Zhao was stunned, and after a long time, he sighed softly.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Princess has prepared dinner. She has called the maid for you to come and have dinner, as well as Miss Wei."
At this moment, the eunuch ordered You Jiang's voice to be heard from behind the pillars, interrupting Su Zhao's thoughts.
An old man over fifty years old wore a black crown and gorgeous brocade clothes, holding a lantern in his hand. Behind him were seven or eight eunuchs and maids standing with their heads bowed. They had obviously been waiting for a long time.
Su Zhao took a deep breath, put aside the troubles in his mind, smiled and said, "Let's go and set up the Yuhua Palace."
