At this moment, cold sweat broke out on Zhuge Liang's forehead. He also thought of the terrible result. If he did everything by himself, the people below him would not grow at all, so how could they take over his position?
"To be honest, I can find a lot of faults under the current rule of Duke Xuande, but I would rather turn a blind eye to the less serious faults than do it myself. As long as it is not a very serious mistake, I would rather endure it.
Stay!" Chen Xi said with a sigh.
Zhuge Liang looked at Chen Xi's expression with slight horror. He could feel the truth in Chen Xi's words. It was no joke. In Zhuge Liang's view, under Liu Bei's rule, which was close to its prime, Chen Xi still saw a lot of mistakes.
"Do you want us to find out and correct it ourselves?" Zhuge Liang said after being silent for a while.
"Well, it is precisely because you make mistakes that you will grow. The world cannot be supported by one person. It takes several generations to rule the vast wilderness. As the leader, I need to leave room for them to grow." Chen Xi nodded.
He nodded and said.
"People cannot kill others for their own sake, especially at the national level." Chen Xi sighed and said, "So I only make a rough framework to ensure that the direction is correct, so that even if I make a mistake, there will not be a big mistake.
But there is still room for change.”
"It's not that I'm arrogant, I'm just telling the truth. When it comes to government affairs, there is no one in the world who is better than me when it comes to the framework. But I won't admit it when it comes out of this door." Chen Xi looked at Zhuge Liang and said very carefully,
He usually wouldn't say this in front of others.
"This..." Zhuge Liang was silent for a moment, "all of us know it."
"There is a gap between first and second, and there is also a gap between Zijing and me. But if I keep doing it, Zijing will never hope to surpass me in this life..." Chen Xi said with some regret. In fact, he wanted to say,
Even if Lu Su finished his work, there would be no hope for him in this life.
"I seem to see other meanings in your expression." Zhuge Liang is a good observer of words and expressions. He kept staring at Chen Xi and naturally saw other expressions on Chen Xi's face, which did not seem to be what he said.
"Expose it, expose it. All you need to know is that if you don't train the people below, they will never be able to become you. You have to give them the opportunity to make mistakes and tolerate them, instead of doing everything by one person." Chen Xi
Wei Wei felt a little embarrassed, but then she revealed it unceremoniously.
"I will pay attention to this aspect." Zhuge Liang also understood why Chen Xi said this to him today.
"As a perfectionist, it is indeed painful to tolerate mistakes, but you will feel relieved to see them stop making mistakes and become stronger and stronger. The great cause of the empire cannot be supported by one person." Chen Xi also told Zhuge Liang.
Pouring a cup of tea, he said he was a little thirsty.
"Actually, this is also related to my long-term strategy. Preserving the vitality of the Han Dynasty is not only the population of the people, but also the elite people like you. It is also the talented people who will grow up for the next generation." Chen Xi pointed at
The map hanging on the wall sighed, "Actually, this is why I decentralize government affairs most of the time." Chen Xi confused Zhuge Liang with a solemn expression.
Because he has a big heart, he has a heavy responsibility. If it were not for the purpose of making China stand out in this era, Chen Xi might have already taken the step of war.
Try to suppress Cao Cao and Sun Ce's speed in absorbing talents, and try to plunder as much as possible all the middle and upper classes they can obtain in history.
Try to retain every civil servant and military general. Even if the opponent would rather die than surrender, he will never kill him until the world is unified and the empire fights to win over the opponent with greater courage and a broader mind.
To this day, Liu Bei has never killed any captured generals or civil servants. Even though Li Tong and Xin Pi have both escaped, they have never thought of killing each other. Guys above the middle level, for Chen Xi
Generally speaking, they will be the main force of the empire's future conquests.
Chen Xi let Zhuge Liang go, and he had already taught everything that needed to be taught. If Zhuge Liang still did everything by himself in the future, as long as Chen Xi was still alive, Zhuge Liang would not have become the prime minister in this life, and would have supported him to death!
By the way, Chen Xi doesn't think Zhuge Liang would have outlived him if he had maintained the current intensity of work. Although fifty-four years old was considered a long life in ancient times, if Zhuge Liang had not devoted all his energy to his death, the final reason was overwork.
Just saw a ghost.
[However, we still need to be prepared on both sides. If Kong Ming cannot change his current habits, then I must find a suitable person to take over the official position of prime minister. It is impossible for Wenru and I to take the stage for the second time, and Zijing also has certain physical problems...
】After watching Zhuge Liang leave, Chen Xi began to think carefully.
To be honest, after Lu Su, there is really no suitable choice for prime minister except Zhuge Liang. If Lu Xun is chosen, it will be a pity for Lu Xun's outstanding military strategy. As for Lu Yu, if he sits in that position, he will not let the situation get worse.
For the imperial struggle that had already begun at that time, if the national power could not be improved but could only be maintained, then you can only pray that the Qin Dynasty would not make progress. It would not be the time to be worse than the Qin Dynasty at that time.
"I hope Kong Ming will not disappoint me. Although Gong Yan is excellent, he is not a genius. It is true that he is a late bloomer. Unfortunately, there is still a big gap compared with Kong Ming." Chen Xi sighed, and he has been improving in ability throughout the ages.
The only thing that can compare with Zhuge Liang is counting on his fingers.
In the eyes of Chen Xi now, the empire is just a precision instrument, and he is the one who assembles the instrument. To him, all the civil and military officials under his command are just parts. Many of these parts are common parts. What he hopes most is to be able to do it.
In the end, he built an instrument assembly machine that was stronger than him.
There was once a joke that the Germans assembled a bunch of parts of god-level equipment into purple equipment and were still complacent about it, while the Soviets assembled a bunch of parts from blue equipment into purple equipment, relied on the quantity to produce Germany's magic equipment parts, and then
Assembling it again, no matter how excellent the parts are, it means nothing if your assembly ability is poor.
If you change to an official, it's almost all about organizational management and ability-based management. Unfortunately, Zhuge Liang's organizational management is a bit troublesome. He can almost be regarded as a destroyer of organizational structure.
But now Chen Xi has nothing to do. Anyway, if Zhuge Liang doesn't change his habits, then Chen Xi will keep suppressing him, making it impossible for him to become prime minister. He is not afraid of trouble. In the end, isn't politics just a matter of lifespan!
Whoever lives longer will make the final decision. Wasn't the reason why Zhang Jaw was invincible back then because all the people who were stronger than him died? What's more, Chen Xi himself has an absolute advantage. He only needs to endure it when the time comes. Anyway, he is not afraid!
