"Those who are in charge of people's plans should first examine the choices and choices. The ultimate choice should be determined within, and the danger of safety should be outside."
Of course, the current situation in the court is still under the control of the emperor, so he is not worried about how much the ebb and flow of power will affect and weaken his power. And for personal interests, right now
This situation was exactly what he was happy to see.
He considered it and said: "In this case, let's recruit Kong Yuan as the Councilor first, and then wait for the imperial edict to be answered, and then use it according to his talents. As for General Lu Bu, he has made mistakes before and has made great achievements behind. He wants to be upright in the court.
When employing people, Zhongtai can cut off half of the city with an imperial edict, and reprimand him with a warning letter. In addition, he can be appointed as General Anhan and Prime Minister of Beihai."
He was demoted from a general of Wei with a rank of 2,000 shi to a minister of the state with a rank of 2,000 shi, and the city of residence was reduced. It can be regarded as a demotion. In this way, Lu Bu was defeated and fled, and it was acceptable to the court.
What's more, 'Shou' means to be an official, which means temporary probation. If you are not qualified to serve as Beihai Prime Minister, you will be dismissed. The emperor's final decision is undoubtedly different from Xun You's original idea, but Xun You can't say anything, just
Just say yes.
The emperor nodded with a smile and said based on the topic just mentioned: "The two Yuan Dynasties established Guandong together. They seemed to be more powerful for a while. In fact, in order to invade and consolidate their strength in recent years, they have offended others a lot. These people are of low status and low position. They are loyal to the royal family, but they are temporarily unable to stand out.
.If the imperial court can give them this opportunity, they will be able to grow up and compete with the Yuan family."
He leaned forward and asked Xun You humbly: "What do you think, Mr. Xun, of Dongping, Cao Cao?"
Cao Cao?
Power."
The emperor looked at him in surprise, but immediately understood that Xun You was so cautious mainly because he was worried that his relationship with Xun Yu would make him suspicious. After all, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, and no one knows how much a king treats a person.
What are your true thoughts?
"The Xun family of Yingchuan is an outstanding person. Xun Chen in Yuan Shao's shogunate and Xun Yu under Cao Cao are all related to you." The emperor waved his hand to stop Xun You's tendency to speak in self-defense. He intended to take this opportunity to forgive the other party.
, lest Xun You always have this root in his heart
The thorns hindered the relationship between the emperor and his ministers, which showed that he was not generous enough as an emperor: "As the saying goes, 'The bird chooses the wood, but the wood cannot choose the bird'? As long as the heart belongs to the Han ministers and is diligent in the king's affairs, no matter in the court or in the local area
, I won’t feel bad about it.”
After Xun You heard this, he immediately bowed down and said: "Your Majesty is magnanimous and does not commit crimes on others. He is truly a wise master. Since I serve your Majesty, I should worry about the king's affairs. I will show my loyalty to them and say that they have abandoned their posts."
Come and surrender to Your Majesty."
The emperor applauded inwardly after hearing this, but poaching someone else's corner was not so upright, so he deliberately suppressed his smile and kept silent as acquiescence.
Xun You thought for a while and realized that he had said too much, so he promptly made up for it: "It's just that they all obey their fathers. As juniors, I can't impose strict words. If it doesn't work, please forgive me."
The emperor knew that the nobles of this era rarely put all their wealth on one person. The most famous Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jin brothers are typical examples. What's more, each has his own master. They can choose to rely on, and they must have their own considerations and ideas.
.
Xun You said this just to express his comfort. The emperor didn't care whether someone could come in the end. Unless he issued an imperial edict in the name of the emperor, there would be no room for change. Although there were examples of refusal in the Han Dynasty
There are many, but if you do this, not only the emperor's face, but also the majesty that the court has finally established will be affected.
"This matter cannot be forced. Besides, although there are many talented people in the world, I only have Jun Xun."
Xun You was greatly moved by these words. He immediately moved to the table and bowed respectfully to the emperor. He said with all sincerity: "I am a foolish minister with a despicable talent and a humble one. How can I accept your majesty's words?"
"Get up." The emperor struck while the iron was hot and personally stepped forward to help Xun You up: "In my life, I don't like people to be arrogant, nor do I like people to belittle themselves. Now that the world is in chaos, it is just when you and other wise men are busy, I can
If we can plan things with Jun Xun, why should the world worry about injustice!"
When Xun You raised his head, his eyes were already a little moist. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "How dare I not do my best for Your Majesty in order to stabilize the world!"
The emperor helped Xun You to the table, then turned around and walked back to his seat to sit down. After Xun You took advantage of this to calm down, he said: "This time Zhao Gong, Pei Mao and others are on an envoy to Guandong to conquer the country with integrity. Recommended
Passed a large number of
Scholars from the East; in addition, there were a large number of young wise men who recommended themselves to the court, and officials from various prefectures and counties sent to the government. The court could not chill their hearts, and had to properly arrange them one by one. I don’t know what Mr. Xun did about this.
Strategy?"
After Xun You calmed down, he quickly returned to his usual calm and capable attitude. He raised his hands and said: "In the past, when the states and counties recommended talents, they had to accept the government's examination. The content of the examination was Ming Jing, Ming Lv, and Drama."
, plus Maocai, it is for the examination and examination of the four subjects. Your Majesty has established a new system of Taixue and updated five subjects. Therefore, I think it is better to add new rules based on the previous rules and conduct examinations based on the five subjects of Taixue to measure talents.
Apply.”
The emperor was satisfied with the opinions given by Xun You. However, most of these people came from Guandong. After they entered the court, they would definitely strengthen Huang Wan's momentum and give the Guandong scholars a more powerful voice in the court. This was also Ma Rixi times.
Sensing a crisis, he was eager to win over Liu Yu.
The current situation in the imperial court has finally formed a three-legged equilibrium after several turmoils. The emperor is superior, and no other party can resist the emperor's will alone. As for the alliance, Kansai and Kanto are inherently different in their territories, especially after the emperor tamed Dong.
After the inheritance, it became even more difficult.
Moreover, the emperor is planning to start a new round of reforms next year. What is needed is to add fresh blood to the current bureaucracy and use a group of capable officials to implement the new deal for him, rather than a group of officials who only know what Fuchou wrote in the letter.
It can't be mediocre.
But this cannot be said openly. Even if the relationship between the emperor and Xun You has reached the point where they express sincerity to each other, they still have to pay attention to their respective positions. The emperor thought about it, had an idea in his mind, and said slowly:
"
I plan to set up another side subject in addition to the five subjects of Taixue, called the "official administration" department. From now on, good officials recommended by various prefectures and counties must first go to the official administration department to study the great politics of the court, understand the ideals, and pass the study.
, before you can be transferred to the official position.”
The emperor's tone did not sound like he was discussing with Xun You, but rather he had made a final decision.
