The imperial court, the messenger of the Son of Heaven, and the left servant shot Wang Duo to hold the festival and was about to arrive in Zhending City, Zhenzhou, which made the mourning of the Su family reach its peak. If a high-ranking official dies, it is common for the court to send people to mourn, but maybe deep down he likes it. And most of the people who came were some little-known officials. However, Wang Duo is now a high-ranking official who is really reused in the court, and he personally came to pay tribute to a lady of the festival envoy, which is naturally not the real purpose.

"The left servant shoots Wang Duo, born in the prime minister's gate, the Wang family belongs to the official eunuch family, this person is particularly good at identifying people, and he has selected a lot of people with real talents and learning for the imperial court, and in today's world, he is a rare excellent official." Gongsun Changming introduced to Li Ze: "This person is thoughtful and calculating, and I am afraid that I have come here this time specifically to see you."

"Look at me?" Li Ze pointed to his nose and smiled: "It's really flattering that such a big man can come all the way to see me."

"It seems that Gao Xiangsheng's activities in the capital are still very effective." Gongsun Changming said with a smile: "Otherwise, this person will not come, but it also shows another problem, the merger of the two towns of Henghai and Chengde that Gongzi is thinking about, I am afraid that it will not be realized for a while."

Li Ze bowed his head and said: "In other words, if I can't pass Wang Duo's test, then the imperial court will never agree to merge the two towns, right?" ”

"Nature. Chengde and Henghai merge, then there will be eight states and millions of people under the rule of Gongzi, what kind of authority is this, once the trust is not human, won't it be another disaster? Zhang Zhongwu's lessons from the past are not far away! Gongsun Changming said with a smile.

Li Ze sneered: "Isn't this taking off your pants and farting?" I need an order from the court, but I just need a righteous and bright name, and if he doesn't give it to me, I can't do it? ”

"Childe, what you need is such a righteous name!" Gongsun Changming shook his head and said: "Why Zhang Zhongwu has developed a huge power in ten years and managed Lu Long like an iron bucket is because he had the righteous and bright identity given to him by the imperial court at the beginning!" When Zhou Gong was afraid of rumors, and Wang Mang was humble to the corporal, who could know what kind of characters they were? By the time the imperial court finds out that everything is uncontrollable, it will be too late."

Li Ze was a little distressed: "If we can't integrate the two towns in a fair and bright way, many policies will not be able to be implemented publicly, and besides, I have to do a lot of things, but I am afraid that my father will oppose it at all."

Gongsun Changming smiled and said: "Gongzi's plan to wash the rivers and mountains and revive the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, and today the next group of heroes cut the drama and rise together, competing for the world, how can you be anxious for the twilight of the dynasty, you have to plan for a long time. Gongzi easily won Henghai, but he could also plan for several years, and Zhang Zhongwu took more than ten years to govern Lu Long! ”

"That being said, I always feel that there is not enough time, and I just seize the day! Sir, now I am like a hungry wolf, facing a plate of delicious mutton, but I can only swallow saliva and cannot eat it.

"We can't wait!" Gongsun Changming said: "Wang Duo is here to see what kind of person the prince is?" I also want to see what the situation of Chengde is? If he thinks that Childe is a credible person, he is afraid that he will invite Childe to Chang'an."

"And ......"

"And how?" Seeing that Gongsun Changming wanted to speak and stopped, Li Ze asked.

"And Wang Duo is the most important person to support his own body and is proficient in medical skills, he will inevitably find that the commander is not long in life, in this case, I am afraid that it will be more urgent to invite the prince to Chang'an." Gongsun Changmingdao.

Speaking of this topic, Li Ze couldn't help but fall silent.

Even if he doesn't have much affection for Li Anguo, this person is related to this body after all, and this body is what he gave. This is from the perspective of family relationships. And from the position of power, Li Anguo is already handing over the rights to Li Ze, but it takes time, and Li Ze digests these rights to take over, it also takes time, after Li Ze takes over, if Li Anguo's body can still support it for a period of time, it will naturally help Li Ze control the entire Chengde more effectively.

"I've asked Jin Yuan, a year at most." Li Ze said in a low voice.

Gongsun Changming is also sad, unlike Li Ze, he and Li Anguo have been old friends for decades, and the old friend is about to die soon, how can it not be sad?

"Sir, do you think it's necessary for me to go to Chang'an?" Li Ze asked.

"It's necessary." Gongsun Changming said solemnly: "If Gongzi doesn't make this trip, the court will definitely have doubts, in addition to fighting for the name of righteousness, Gongzi can also get more help from the court."

"What else can the court help me with now?"

"Absolutely!" Gongsun Changming said with a smile: "There are still 3,000 nails in the broken ship!" Even if the Tang Dynasty declines, Chang'an is still a place where the world's humanities gather, and there are still many outstanding heroes gathered there."

Speaking of this, Li Ze became excited: "It's okay to be a hero, I'm very interested in those craftsmen in the Tang Chang'an workshop, if I can get them, it will make a lot of money." Besides, there is Chang'an Taixue, which I am also quite interested in."

"Childe is not interested in the heroes, but in those ordinary students in Taixue?" Gongsun Changming said with a smile: "Now that Taixue is declining, people who have a way, who will go into the face to endure the years, I have old friends who will live in Chang'an Taixue, and barely survive every month, but there are some poor students who can't eat, and they are just three meals a day mixed in it, and the real people with skills have already gone to find their own way."

"Mr. Gongsun, you don't have to be too many, too many are bad. What I need, it's really those who are honest, don't have much ambition, and can diligently complete the tasks assigned to them. Even if the students in Taixue no longer have the ability, the knowledge will not be bad. Otherwise, you can't mess around anywhere, can you? ”

Gongsun Changming was a little stunned, and said that those who have great ambitions are eager to recruit the world's talents for their own use, but Li Ze actually did the opposite. He felt that ordinary people were better to use, but it was really unexpected to him.

Looking at Gongsun Changming's expression, Li Ze smiled and said, "Sir, these people have basic knowledge, what is the difference?" It's knowledge, it's wrist, it's experience, look at Yang Kai, what kind of person was he at first? But now? Could it be that those people in Chang'an Taixue are not even comparable to Yang Kai? As long as they have the most basic qualities and then put them in the most suitable position, they will naturally shine. Doing your job well is the greatest dedication."

Listening to Li Ze's explanation, Gongsun Changming had a feeling of brightness in his eyes, and nodded again and again: "You are also right, in the past, Yang Kai had the talent to govern a county at most, but now in Yixing Society, he is doing well, open-minded and visionary, there is a world of difference in the past, that is Cao Zhang, a nerd, is now also living a brilliant life, and has become the most powerful cadre of Gongzi in the development of Yixing Society among large households. Another example is that Cangzhou Lu Jin, Dizhou Wu Guan, one is not down-and-out, one is not a small official, now it has been tempered, and it can also be in charge of a state of vulgar things, it is Gongsun's vision is narrow, in the way of employing people, Gongsun's ability to turn stones into gold, Gongsun is extremely admired."

Li Ze is very flattered by Gongsun Changming, and if he wants the guy in front of him to flatter a person, it is extremely difficult, it is Li Anguo, and he often enjoys Gongsun Changming's cynicism.

Li Ze suddenly felt that Zhang Zhongwu was really extraordinary, after all, such a person could tolerate Gongsun Changming serving as the first strategist under his curtain for seven or eight years, and he didn't have a broad mind, which was really unbearable.

"What are the shortcomings of this Wang Duo?" Li Ze asked suddenly. This is due to habit, just like Li Ze in his previous life, when he met some key people, he always found out the shortcomings of this person at the first time, and then watched people take medicine.

"This man is of high birth and lives a luxurious life! When it comes to using money, it's extravagant, but his family is big, so he can afford to spend it." Gongsun Changming suddenly reacted as he spoke, "Isn't Gongzi trying to bribe this person?" ”

Li Ze nodded.

"Never!" Gongsun Changming shook his head and said: "Although this person is extravagant, he still has the basic political literacy and character, if the son does this, it will only backfire, and with the age of the child, it is even more appropriate not to behave too much in front of this person. Even if you want to give a gift, that's a handsome thing."

Li Ze smiled dumbly, it was indeed his own negligence, Gongsun Changming had said that this person was very good at observing people, which was similar to the personnel cadres of later generations, there was always a pair of eyes that could perceive people's hearts, it seemed that in front of him, he still had to disguise himself well, how could he let the other party think that he was the kind of young and enthusiastic five good young people who were dedicated to the country.

"Thank you, sir, for reminding me, I think I'll leave him with a good image." Li Ze smiled.

The two looked at each other and laughed, and their hearts were clear.

After the two of them carefully finalized some joints to deal with Wang Duo, Li Ze put the matter aside and changed the topic: "Sir, count the time, the people sent to Lu Long and Zhang Zhenwu are also about to come back, if my expectations are good, Zhang Zhenwu will probably agree to our request, and this time someone will definitely come over, when the time comes, Mr. will deal with them first, Mr. knows that Lu Long is fine, no matter who comes is, in front of Mr., they will not be able to play tricks, because they know, It's useless."

"This is natural."
