Chapter 159 The golden sword tactic, the unsolvable conspiracy
[Third, select the talented and appoint the capable, keep the laws simple and the administration broad, so that the people can settle down in their careers.
Wang Meng employs people based on merit. As long as you have talent, you can become an official. This is similar to Cao Cao.
In terms of employing people, whether it is meritocracy or emphasizing both ability and political integrity, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
But in Wang Meng's case, he chose meritocracy.
Whether you are a noble of the Di tribe or a poor family, whether you have an old grudge with Wang Meng or you have a good relationship with Wang Meng, as long as you have talent, you will be employed.
On the contrary, as long as you don't have matching talents, no matter how strong your relationship is, you won't be able to reuse it.
In terms of people's livelihood, Wang Meng encouraged farmers to cultivate mulberry trees, open up mountains and rivers, build water conservancy projects, and improve farming, so that fields could be opened up and warehouses could be enriched.
Talents were sufficient, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the former Qin's national power became stronger and stronger, finally unifying the Yellow River Basin.】
[Four, unsolvable conspiracy and golden sword plan.
Speaking of the extremely famous "Golden Sword Strategy" in history, we have to mention Murong Chui.
Murong Chui is the younger brother of the former Yan Emperor Murong Jun. He is the God of War of the Yan Kingdom and has never lost a battle in his life.
Unfortunately, he was jealous of his nephew Murong Wei, so he had no choice but to flee to the former Qin Dynasty and seek refuge with the former Qin emperor Fu Jian.
Wang Meng naturally saw the power of Murong Chui and knew that he was not a person who was willing to rely on others. If he was kept, he would become an enemy of the former Qin sooner or later, so Wang Meng persuaded Fu Jian many times to kill Murong Chui.
It's a pity that Fu Jian is a benevolent and righteous king. He feels that Murong Chui is looking down on him when he comes to seek refuge with him. How can he take action at this time?
Moreover, there were many other people who had taken refuge with him at that time. If he killed Murong Chui, it might cause a series of adverse reactions, so Fu Jian rejected Wang Meng's request many times.]
[Since Fu Jian is unwilling to kill, then I will create an opportunity for you! So Wang Meng suddenly thought about it and came up with a perfect divorce plan! 】
[On the night before the attack on Luoyang, Wang Meng came to visit Murong Chui at his residence.
Let’s talk about the reason why Wang Meng came to visit: firstly, both of them were important ministers who were highly valued by Fu Jian; secondly, there was someone related to Murongchui who wanted to follow him in this battle, that is, he came with Murongchui. The eldest son who defected—Murong Ling.
When Murong Chui saw the distinguished guest coming, he naturally welcomed him warmly. In order to allow Wang Meng to take more care of his son, he held a farewell banquet for Wang Meng that night.
After three rounds of drinking, both of them were drunk. After "confiding their hearts" to each other, Wang Meng couldn't help but said this: "Now that we are far apart, why give it to me? It makes me miss people when I see things."
Suddenly hearing Wang Meng's request, Murong Chui was not prepared. There was nothing valuable he could get at the moment. In desperation, he immediately took off the golden knife from his waist and gave it to Wang Meng.
Wang Meng took the golden sword "without changing his face and without a beating heart", and even thanked him repeatedly. At this time, Murong Chui could not have imagined that this was not the beginning of his becoming a close friend, but the beginning of his doom.
This golden sword is an ancestral item of the Murong family, which is equivalent to a token. Therefore, it is completely conceivable that Wang Meng can do almost anything he wants with the golden sword in his hand.】
[After the army set off, a man named Jin Xi found the eldest son Murong Ling with a golden sword.
Jin Xi is an extraordinary node in this conspiracy. He is Murong Chui's confidant. Wang Meng bribed him and asked him to find Murong Ling.
Jin Xi handed the golden sword into Murong Ling's hand and told him: "Your father asked me to bring a message. The reason why he defected to the Qin State was to temporarily avoid trouble, but Wang Meng is a narrow-minded person. He wants to get rid of us.
Fu Jian treated each other with courtesy on the surface, but in reality he was plotting secretly."
"Now the King of Yan has regretted it. Your father has started to flee long ago. What happened happened suddenly and there was no time to tell you. Now you hurry up and take the golden sword to join us. Don't delay!"
Jin Xi is his father's confidant, and he still holds his father's golden sword that he never leaves.
Therefore, Murong Ling did not have the slightest doubt about this matter. He thought that after all, the Yan Kingdom was run by the Murong family with all their efforts, and it was not incomprehensible for his father to be nostalgic.】
[After receiving the golden sword and the message, Murong Ling used the same excuse that had remained unchanged for thousands of years - to go out to the city to hunt, and began to flee to the Yan Kingdom.
As soon as Wang Meng confirmed that Murong Ling had escaped, he immediately sent the news back to Chang'an.
Murong Chui, who was in Chang'an, was immediately frightened out of his wits. He knew something was wrong and could no longer stay in Chang'an, so he ran away quickly.
Unfortunately, Wang Meng planned every step of his journey clearly, and Murong Chui was caught just after running two streets and was escorted in front of Fu Jian.
Wang Meng chuckled, thinking that this time Murong Chui was completely finished, right?]
Wang Meng: "."
[However, what is surprising is that instead of blaming Murong Chui, Fu Jian comforted the confused Murong Chui and said: "I know you have no intention of defecting. What does your son's wrongdoing have to do with you? You just
But for fear of being implicated, you can stay here with peace of mind and remain the same as before."
Even though he was defecting, Fu Jian still chose to forgive Murong Chui. Wang Meng was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Poor Murong Ling ran back to Qianyan stupidly, only to be killed by Qianyan.】
"Ah, this is actually Jing Lue's plan???" Fu Jian looked at the light curtain in mid-air and asked in surprise: "But why did he plot against Murong Chui?"
"Your Majesty, it was said in the video that the Prime Minister saw that Murong Chui was not a person who had been under others for a long time, so he did this"
"No, I am still very confident in my vision. Otherwise, how could I have discovered Wang Jinglue and talented people like you?"
"Your Majesty said so!"
"."
[This golden sword plan can be said to have perfectly controlled the opponent's psychology, and every step was planned. The entire plan was flawless, without any flaws from beginning to end.
The only mistake was that Fu Jian kept Murong Chui in the end.
Wang Meng's plan was also perfect, and his worries were correct, but he died of illness at a young age and ultimately failed to survive Murong Chui.
After Wang Meng died, Murong Chui finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Later, the former Qin Dynasty was defeated by the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the country began to fall apart. Murong Chui relied on his own efforts to restore the country and re-establish the Later Yan Dynasty.
From this point of view, Murong Chui finally became the winner. Wang Meng's golden sword plan ended in failure, but the reason for the failure did not lie with Wang Meng.】
Fu Jian frowned, while Murong Chui remained silent.
"Everything depends on people and everything depends on heaven! If it doesn't rain that day, then Sima Yi won't be able to see the sun the next day. Alas!" Zhuge Liang sighed.
[Wang Meng, like Zhuge Liang, had to do everything in domestic, foreign, and military matters, and eventually he was exhausted.
Fu Jian was naturally very distressed and asked many times about Wang Meng's physical condition and how he would be treated in the future.
Wang Meng’s advice to Fu Jian was: consolidate the rule of the north and suppress the Xianbei and Qiang nobles. Never go south to attack the Jin State. Although the Jin State is relatively safe, it is still Chinese orthodoxy and cannot be conquered if everyone is united.]
[Not long after, Wang Meng, who was only 51 years old, died of illness. He lived 3 years less than Zhuge Liang, who died at the age of 54. His body was really exhausted from the hard work.
After Wang Meng's death, he was also posthumously named Wuhou. His merits and strength were not inferior to those of Zhuge Wuhou.
Eight years later, Fu Jian was so satisfied that he still forgot Wang Meng's instructions before his death and led an army of 800,000 people south to attack Jin.
As a result, in the Battle of Feishui, they were defeated by Xie An's 50,000 Beifu soldiers, and the former Qin Dynasty collapsed.
Yao Chang, the leader of the Qiang tribe who surrendered to Fu Jian in the past, not only established the Later Qin Dynasty, but also killed Fu Jian.
Xianbei aristocrat Murong Chui also protected Fu Jian after he returned to the north, and chose to go north to restore the foundation of the Yan Kingdom and establish Later Yan.]
