Chapter 174: Lu Ban and Sun Wu

In short, the Zhao family once again had a situation with two ministers. Later, Zhao Huo indeed became the head of the Liang family. Who can say whether it will turn into the previous situation between the Zhao family and Handan Zhao?

Is it just right? There is already a precedent of Handan Zhao. I think Zhao Yang will have tighter control over Zhao Huo? Try not to let that situation happen again.

It can be seen here that Zhao Huo is still called Zhao Huo. He has not changed his prefix. It is more like the Zhao family swallowed up his own small sect, the Liang family, rather than appointing a new head of the small sect.

"Sir, the Liang family has a small fiefdom and a small population. The Zhao family has very little benefit from the Liang family. Is there anything unusual?" Zhiyao firmly believes that the Zhao family will look for new annexation targets.

Zhishen said: "The Zhao family has lost a lot of troops, and just devouring the Liang family is not enough to sustain it. The country can devour a small family with few widows, and attacking any family will make other families panic. How dare Yuan Rong do it?"

That's not necessarily the case.

The Zhao family is now in a moment of weakness, but Zhao Yang feels more and more dangerous.

"Everyone criticized the Zhao family for having two ministers, but Yuan Rong did not stop them. Maybe the Zhao family is waiting for the opportunity?" Zhiyao asked.

Zhishen laughed when he heard this and said, "If the families are weak, what's the use of eating them?"

That's right, in the Jin State, the Qing family is now the dominant one. Unless the Qing families annex each other, the meat of the other families will be like mosquito legs, and eating it will not make the Qing family much stronger.

Zhiyao believes that new situations will definitely arise in the Jin Kingdom in the future. The possibility of a fight between the Qing family is lower, and the possibility of repeated external conquests is more likely.

"Maybe the Zhao family will target Zhongshan Kingdom or Qiuyou?" Zhiyao thought to himself.

This is because the weak Zhao family will avoid fighting with other Qing families. The Zhao family and the Han family cannot defeat the alliance between the Zhi family and the Wei family. If the Zhao family and the Han family attack the Hu family, the Zhi family and the Wei family will inevitably get involved.

.

Can the Wei and Zhishen take action against the Zhao family? Of course they can, but the possibility of Zhishen taking action against the Zhao family is extremely slim.

When Zhao attacks small and medium-sized families, only attacking one or two families will have little effect. If he attacks more times, others will not stand by and watch!

Zhao Yang is currently strong on some things, and very sensible on others.

The last ministerial position was filled, and the ministerial position in Jin State was no longer vacant, and the distribution of many positions was also arranged.

Zhishen declined the position of lieutenant on behalf of Zhiyao, and then Xie Yong of the Xie family got the appointment.

To be honest, the Xie family ranks high in terms of strength among the middle-level nobles, but the Xie family has always kept a low profile and very little news about them is heard.

"I heard that the second son of the Jie family is in Qin?" Zhiyao was not sure if her memory was confused.

Zhishen glanced at Zhiyao and said, "Jie Shuo is indeed in Qin."

The reason why Zhiyao asked this was mainly because he remembered that the Jie family seemed to have fled to the Qin State, and then continued to develop in the Qin State, until one day a man named Wei Yang went to the Qin State to preside over the reform.

Like many old aristocrats, he became a chicken of the reform and killed it for many monkeys to see.

How many years will it be before Shang Yang goes to the Qin State to preside over the reform? If Zhiyao remembers correctly, Shang Yang's reform was during the reign of Qin Xiaogong, which is another 1340 years.

"Why did Yao wantonly send people to Lu?" Zhishen said this and was a little unhappy.

Why is Zhishen unhappy? It's not that a group of people left Zhishen when he needed it most, and several vassals committed actual acts of betrayal.

Outsiders would think that the group of disciples were really compassionate and righteous because they went to save their teacher when they learned that he was in trouble.

Judging from the facts, they have failed to live up to the rewards and cultivation given by the Zhi family.

Zhishi chose to let them go south, in fact, it was to maintain dignity for both parties.

If the Zhi family refuses to let them go south, they will go south anyway, and it will be the Zhi family that will be even more embarrassed.

Therefore, Jishen agreed to let them leave, but his sense of those people became very poor and he didn't want to see them again.

Zhiyao replied: "I suddenly felt that Lu will produce great talents."

"..." Zhishen's sense of Lu Ren is extremely poor now.

Zhiyao continued: "His name is Ban, and if he gets it, my family will prosper."

That's right, the people Zhiyao sent to Lu State were just to find Lu Ban.

This matter was done in a hurry because Zhiyao judged from certain events that it was time for Lu Ban to be born, so she wanted to tie Lu Ban to the Zhi family even if it meant being tied up.

Zhiyao did not need to tell Zhishen about other things. For example, when Taihu went to Lu, he would establish diplomatic relations with Sanhuan and persuade them to recall Confucius. Anyway, it was best not to let Confucius wander around.

Zhishen didn't want to see Zilu anymore because of his own disgust, which was understandable to Zigong and others, but it was because of his own likes and dislikes that he ignored the role Zilu and others could play on Zhishen.

Zhiyao is different.

How many leaders in history have re-employed a person even though they hated it, and the people who were re-appointed also helped the leader build great achievements.

There are many great talents emerging in the Lu State at this stage, but the Lu State has been controlled by Sanhuan, and it is difficult for the great talents who came from the Lu State to be reused.

Zhiyao sent people to look for Lu Ban and gave him the name Gongshu Ban.

Taihu who went to Lu State was also tasked with finding other talents. Anyway, he invited anyone he met. Considering that Lu State is now a three-level state, do you believe that Lu people who want to do things will not refuse Zhishi's invitation?

"It's up to you." Adhering to the mentality of not interfering with Zhiyao's anything, Zhishen decided to suppress his nausea.

Zhi Yao, however, could not ignore Zhishen's feelings and expressed some of her plans.

After such an incident, Zhiyao also had poor senses towards Zilu and others. The problem is that Zhiyao's development is more important than personal senses.

Let's put it this way, the group of people trained by Zhiyao have not really grown up yet. Without the help of Zilu and others, the development of the Zhishi family may be delayed for three or four years.

What to do? Zhiyao chose to recall Zilu and others, not only to make them work for the development of Zhishi, but also to make them work for Zhishi in the future.

If there were other options? Zhiyao would still recall Zilu and others, not because of anything else, but just thinking about how they worked hard and even died for Zhishi's career because of their inner guilt, and her mood would change.

Much more comfortable.

The skill of employing people in a superior position itself involves exploiting the various psychology of the subordinates, doesn't it?

After hearing this, Zhishen felt much better and said, "This is the owner."

Many people know the truth, but they just know it and they can’t pass the test in their own minds.

"How talented are these people in this class?" Zhishen asked.

What should Zhiyao say? He only knows that Luban is also called Gongshuban. He has been interested in inventing various gadgets since he was a child. As he grows up, he improves and creates various tools. But in middle age, he has

When I went astray, I first studied wooden locks when I had nothing else to do, and then specialized in studying flying mechanical birds.

One thing Zhiyao didn't know was that Lu Ban was only one year younger than Zhiyao.

Time has come to 489 BC. This year Zhiyao is eighteen years old and Lu Ban is seventeen years old.

In the pre-Qin period, the crowning period was divided into several stages. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was twenty-two years old, and in the Qin and Han Dynasties, it was twenty-two years old.

Under special circumstances, crowning can definitely be done in advance, but doing so would generally look very dishonorable.

Lu Ban? Zhu Xia was a special talent in the Spring and Autumn Period. He was an extremely awesome person.

He could achieve that kind of achievement even in the decadent Lu State. How glorious would his life be if he could gain full support from the Zhi family?

If there are no accidents, Zhiyao will get a report from Taihu in three months, and Lu Ban will definitely be brought back to Jin by then.

Zhiyao not only sent people to the State of Lu, but also to the State of Wu.

Isn’t it that Wu State has shifted its strategic focus to the Central Plains? Sun Wu, who is very aware of the strength of Wu State and the threats to Wu State, is seeking to retire.

The Wu Kingdom looks very strong now, but their strength is based on Sha Shuo. As long as they lose a game and suffer heavy losses, they will never have a chance to get back up.

Therefore, the power of the Wu State is very false. If they can look into the Central Plains like Jin and Chu, who were defeated again and again without damaging their foundation, and even want to seek hegemony, there will definitely be no problem; without the corresponding deep foundation, they want to

To seek a position that should not be touched, the probability of success is too small, but the risk is far greater than imagined.

Is Sun Wu a smart man? He can write books on the art of war and has many friends, which means he is a person whose military talents match his emotional intelligence. How can he not see that Fu Chai is leading the country of Wu on the road to death?

, or the kind where no amount of persuasion is of any use.

Sun Wu, who was aware of the danger, had no obligation to bury Fu Chai with him. He could not leave Wu and just find a mountain forest to live in seclusion.

Zhiyao is already expected to be assisted by Sima Ranju. It would be great to add another Sun Wu.

Two months later, when the summer harvest was completed and replanting followed, Zhiyao left the "new field" and headed east.

This time Zhiyao is not going to "Handan", but the destination is a place called "Jipu".

The land originally belonged to Chang Di, but later Chang Di was driven away by the Zhi family and became the Zhi family's sphere of influence.

Zhiyao came here for only one reason. It was not to inspect the local situation, nor to visit the old places of Feiguo or Guguo. She came here because she wanted to welcome Gongshu and his family in person.

About twenty days ago, Taihu sent people back to report that they had found the Gongshu family, and there was indeed a young man named Ban, and his description was almost consistent with Zhiyao's.

Did you find someone? But Taihu still doubted whether he was the right target. The reason was that Gongshuban looked too young, but his uncle Gongshuquan looked more like a very skilled person.

Zhiyao was halfway up a low mountain, looking into the distance to the east, her face full of anticipation.

The current Lu Ban... should still be called Gongshu Ban? Anyway, he is definitely not in the "complete body" state yet.

In fact, Gongshu Ban really became known when he went to Chu State to help build various siege equipment. At that time, he was already fifty-eight years old.

A team appeared on the eastern horizon, and the flag of Zhishi could be seen.

"Go down the mountain!" When Zhiyao saw the team appearing, her expectation not only did not diminish, but became even more eager.

The originator of civil construction, the originator of carpentry, and the originator of theater troupes!

Who is not greedy?

That’s not right, Lu is not greedy anyway.

Zhiyao is so greedy that saliva drips from the corner of her mouth!
