Chapter 152

After Zhou Yu, the king of Qi, ascended the throne and succeeded to the throne, he finally began the countdown to end this troubled era.

In the first year of Taihe, that is, the first year of Zhou Yu's accession to the throne, Ling Xiao was respected as a false king, a generalissimo, and his grace was extremely long, as if he wanted to stay in the court, thinking that he would be reused.

However, under Ling Xiao's repeated requests, he was finally allowed to lead 200,000 soldiers and horses back to the border army of Longcheng and garrison the border pass.

Doing so is good for both Ling Xiao and Zhou Yu.

Let's talk about Zhou Yu first.

At this time, Zhou Yu had only been on the throne for a few days, and he had been away from the center of power for too long before, and he suddenly reached the top, after all, he was a little vain, and he needed some time to consolidate his strength. At this time, if Ling Xiao is in the court, it will inevitably give people a feeling that there are two days in the sky, which is not conducive to re-establishing Zhou Yu's majesty.

Let's talk about Ling Xiao.

As a false king and a generalissimo, Ling Xiao is already a very popular minister, and even in the eyes of many people, the power in his hands is greater than that of Zhou Yu, a veritable king of Qi! The first thing that many of the people in the capital who wanted to ask for a half-official position was to come to him.

In the face of these people who came to serve, Ling Xiao was very embarrassed for Zhou Yu whether he accepted it or not.

Ling Xiao returned to Dragon City, guarding the border fortress as always, and protecting the territory for the people.

As soon as Ling Xiao left, Zhou Yu immediately felt much more comfortable. Before Ling Xiao was in the court, 200,000 border troops were on the side, all kinds of court affairs, pile up state affairs, even if Ling Xiao never said anything, but Zhou Yu often had to take into account his feelings and thoughts when dealing with the arrangement, which was very energy-consuming.

At this time, Ling Xiao left, and Zhou Yu only felt that the big stone that was pressing on his body had been moved, and he couldn't say how easy it was to go.

After Ling Xiao left, Zhou Yu began to vigorously promote all kinds of talents, especially the soldiers in charge of the army, both the old department in the past, and the new talents, the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops were finally completely in his hands, and at the same time, after some training, finally recovered their combat strength. At this time, Duanmu Cong can finally step down from his position as the commander of the forbidden army.

After entering the WTO to fight for the dragon, Li Changding and Jiang Wudong both set a bottom line for Ji Shizong's disciples, first, they must not lead the army to kill, and second, they must not use dead soldiers to assassinate the leaders of hostile forces.

Don't wonder if there are dead people in Jishizong.

The Mojia organization established by Mozi was famous for its ability to die peacefully! One of the most famous things is that Meng Sheng, a certain giant of the Mo family, promised Yangcheng Jun of Chu to help him defend the territory.

As a result, the enemy was too strong, and Meng Sheng could not defend Yangchengjun's territory, so he killed himself, and at the same time, more than 180 people voluntarily died for it!

If there are no disciples of Jishizong, who takes Mohist thought as the theoretical program, are willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of righteousness, it will be a complete failure!

In fact, in order to help the world and save the people, for the righteousness of the world, there are not only disciples of Jishizong who voluntarily sacrificed, but also many, and even many of them have died when they implemented the purpose of Jishizong before.

Of course, when Li Changding established Jishizong, he did not ask the people of Jishizong to sacrifice their lives to achieve the goal of saving the people from Jishizong. On the contrary, he also told him a thousand times and told him to protect himself. Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood.

It's just that, the ancient Righteous Ones!

Many of the disciples of Jishizong are people who can fight for their ideals. For these people, Li Changding can only sigh, he is ashamed! Because his first goal is always the Great Dao! In the process of acquiring knowledge and exploring the unknown, he always feels incomparable happiness and peace.

The thirst for knowledge is Li Changding's eternal and unchanging ultimate goal!

And helping the world and saving the people can only be ranked second.

There are dead people in Jishizong, and there are many of them. But Li Changding and Jiang Wudong will never use them as dead soldiers until the moment of life and death! Just because the more people like this, the more precious their lives are more than others!

Don't take charge of the army to kill, don't need to assassinate the dead, this is the bottom line of Ji Shizong's entry into the WTO to fight for the dragon.

It's a pity that due to the lack of talent before, after Zhou Yu's repeated requests, Li Changding was relieved and agreed that Duanmu Cong was temporarily in charge of the forbidden army, but if there was a war, Zhou Yu had to go on the horse himself. is only in charge of the army, not killing, and it is barely an exception.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu wanted Duanmu Cong to take charge of the army, mainly to find a trustworthy person to control the forbidden army, so as not to be secretly taken away by others, and he still knew nothing.

Duanmu Cong broke away from the forbidden army and turned to civilian work, but he only worked in the court for a month, and was immediately sent to Qingzhou by Zhou Yu to be the prefect of Qingzhou and take charge of the people's livelihood.

It's a good errand, especially for the people of Jesejong.

So, Duanmu Cong took a group of disciples of Jishizong to Qingzhou to take up his post, govern Qingzhou Mansion, clean up rivers, reclaim fertile land, improve local productivity, and at the same time spread Jishizong's Mohist thoughts.

In addition to sending Duanmu Cong to Qingzhou Mansion to govern, Zhou Yu also sent many officials from the DPRK to the local government, these officials are basically his old ministry, and they all have experience in working in the local area.

Of course, these officials often have a few disciples of Jishizong around them.

On the one hand, the people of Jishizong are familiar with agricultural affairs, shrewd in arithmetic, ingenious, and very familiar with folk places, so it is very good to be a deputy.

On the other hand, the people of Jishizong are strong in martial arts and have excellent medical skills, and with them by their side, the lives of these officials can be guaranteed.

Finally, Zhou Yu also had the intention of letting the people of Jishizong spy on these officials.

After all, I haven't seen each other for many years, the world is unpredictable, whether these old subordinates of his are still the same as in the past, Zhou Yu doesn't dare to pack tickets. The heart is separated from the belly!

After so many years in Taigu County, except for a very few cronies, Zhou Yu only had Ji Shizong to trust and use it with confidence at this time.

Of course, Li Changding and Zhou Yu both knew in their hearts that this was a temporary expedient measure, and it would definitely not be the case in the future. The art of the emperor lies in checks and balances, which Li Changding and Zhou Yu both understand very well, and this is also one of the reasons why Li Changding does not let Jishizong's disciples get involved in military power.

The first year of Taihe was a year when the disciples of Ji Shizong showed their strength on the stage of Qi State, and they were everywhere, including the military camp. After all, although they do not join the army, they can heal wounded soldiers.

And it is also with the assistance of these Jishizong people, the national strength of Qi recovered very quickly, the farmers had a bumper harvest, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the merchants were prosperous, only the beggars were more depressed, and they were all arrested by the people of Jishizong to work.

Those who don't work are not allowed to eat!

This is the purpose and precept of Jishizong!

The country of Qi is peaceful, and he has a bumper harvest, and he has the heavy troops of the forbidden army in his hands, and Zhou Yu, the king of Qi, can be regarded as sitting firmly.

Then, Zhou Yu opened a department and selected a large number of talents from the people. Of course, the subjects of the exam are still the same as before, and they are not mainly based on the Mohist book, but some Mohist remarks are mixed in the test questions.

After all, governing a big country is like cooking small fresh.

At this time, the country was initially decided, and the imperial examination was a major event, which needed to be done step by step. As for the replacement of a large number of magistrates, it is still thanks to Gao Chong and Hong Lei, and the local officials are corrupt officials, which makes the people's grievances boiling.

On the contrary, if the exam books are suddenly changed, those scholars who aspire to be officials will not be angry! In this era, public opinion is in the hands of these people. And most of the ministers in the DPRK and China are Confucians, are you forcing them to rebel?

For these people, it doesn't matter if your actions are good for the people. As long as it is against them, then you are a tyrant and unkind! Shang Xia Wei generally refuses to listen to the virtuous faint king! And the ordinary people who don't know the true face of these people are just a cloud of people!

With the help of Ji Shizong, the state of Qi flourished under the governance of Zhou Yu, and became more and more prosperous.

In the third year of Taihe, Ma Dai, the king of Xiliang, who had been seriously ill for many years, left to go west, and the son Ma Rong succeeded to the throne. It's a pity that this Ma Rong has low ability, and is arrogant and lascivious, pro-villain, and far virtuous ministers, which has caused chaos in the court of Xiliang Kingdom, the soldiers are depressed, the powerful are centrifuged, and the people's grievances are boiling.

Taking this opportunity, Zhou Yu, the king of Qi, sent his generals in the fifth year of Taihe, leading 300,000 troops, and sent troops to Xiliang, which was like a bamboo, and the good news was frequent, but he took the entire territory of Xiliang in one month and completely unified the north.

After taking Xiliang, Zhou Yu divided Xiliang into two states, and called Duanmu Cong and Mo Yi, two disciples of Jishizong, to take charge of the government.

Ji Shizong was founded for decades, and his disciples are all over the world, saving people and helping the poor everywhere, with a great reputation and high moral prestige. Especially among the common people, many of them have received the blessings of Jishizong.

This time, as soon as the people of Xiliang heard that the officials who came here to govern were disciples of Jishizong, their hanging hearts immediately settled down, and they vied with each other to praise the good news, rejoicing, and full of expectations for the people of Jishizong who came here to govern.
