For civilian officials, Zhao Zhi's control is relatively relaxed, because in his opinion, even if the civil officials have any plans, they will not exceed their control, and for military generals, Zhao Zhi's attitude is diametrically opposite, the control is very strict, there must be a supervisor in the army, if he goes out to fight, he will send at least one imperial history to supervise the army, once he makes a mistake, he will be dismissed from office and dismissed, and he will be executed.

In the rebellion of the White Turban Army, in the face of the absolute superiority of the rebels, he held Jinyang for more than a month, severely frustrated the spirit of the White Turban Army, and won valuable time for the imperial court, so that the imperial court had enough time to dispatch troops and arrange the battle situation, and finally succeeded in suppressing the rebellion of the White Turban Army, Sima Zhong can be said to have made great contributions, but soon after the war, what was the reason for the lack of reward, but imprisonment? It's just that Liu Zhiheng once persuaded Sima Zhong to surrender, which was taken advantage of by his political enemies, and wrote to Zhao Zhi to impeach him, saying that Sima Zhong had different ambitions in the face of Liu Zhiheng's persuasion.

Just four words, there are different aspirations, and it is still chasing the wind and catching shadows, Zhao Zhi immediately recalled Sima Zhong, dismissed all his official positions, and was imprisoned in Dali Temple for interrogation, although in the end Sima Zhong's innocence was returned, and the person who wrote the impeachment was also dismissed and exiled for the crime of false accusation, but Sima Zhong's military power has also been lost since then, Zhao Zhi asked him to abandon the military and turn to literature, and no longer contaminate the slightest military power.

It can be seen from this that although it was finally proved that Sima Zhong was innocent and had no second heart for the imperial court, the thorn in Zhao Zhi's heart was obviously not completely eliminated, and the deprivation of his military power was the best witness.

Wen Zhiguo, Wu Anbang.

In the promotion and appointment of officials, civil officials and military attachés, Zhao Zhi is also treated differently, for civil officials, Zhao Zhi attaches great importance to his talents, and his virtues, such as Qin Anming, he loves to make small reports, and likes to talk about people behind his back, but he is indeed talented, and he is also extremely heartfelt to Zhao Zhi, so Zhao Zhi reuses him, and for example, Zheng Renjie, the right attendant of the ministry, has been impeached many times with his real name, saying that he openly accepts bribes, and he is in charge of the personnel power of the imperial court, and many officials compete to please him and give him money, hoping to be taken care of in the promotion of official positions. Is this true or false?

It's true, but Zhao Zhi didn't treat him well, he still reused him and let him manage the ministry, what is the reason? Because even if Zheng Renjie is corrupt, he also has rules and a degree, a person with virtue and no talent, such a person, Zhao Zhi likes it, but he will not reuse, he does not accept money when he sends him, a person with both ability and political integrity, in today's era when the way of speech is quite smooth, Zhao Zhi has long been unheard of, there is no need to bribe him at all, he can also be reused and promoted, and the last one is talented and not virtuous, this kind of person can also be divided into two categories, one is greedy for money and does not do things, and is an official just to make money, without a bottom line, and the other is that although he is greedy for money, he is also willing to do things, The former type of people, their money, Zheng Renjie will not accept it, if it happens, he can't escape it, the latter type of people, Zheng Renjie is to choose the best of them, collect money to do things, like Zhao Zhi's recommendation, can often be promoted and reused, Yang Yu is by bribing Zheng Renjie, he has talent, and he has many achievements in the local area, and he was strongly recommended by Zheng Renjie, and then he was reused, and was promoted to the position of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites.

Ma Wu and Huang Xu, whether it is qualifications, military exploits and titles, Ma Wu is inferior to Huang Xu, but the former can be greatly trusted and reused by Zhao Zhi, what is the reason?

Huang Zhi is a person who can be described as majestic on the battlefield, brave in battle, not afraid of death, and has made a lot of meritorious contributions, but he is cautious in the officialdom, and he is easy not to offend people.

But it is such a person who rarely makes mistakes, is diligent, and has a good character, but he can't get Zhao Zhi's trust, although there are old grievances between the two of them, but it is by no means the main reason, because this is a common phenomenon, Zhao Zhi does not trust the vast majority of generals.

Of course, among the generals, there are also people trusted by Zhao Zhi, Li Zhong and Zhao Bo'an, the relationship with Zhao Zhi is extremely close, and Zhao Zhi's trust and reuse, among them, there are two people who are loyal to Zhao Zhi, and there are private feelings in it, Li Zhong and Zhao Zhi met in the poor and lowly, and swore brothers, and Zhao Bo'an is the adopted son of the first emperor Pingzong, is Zhao Zhi's brother-in-law, several people's personal feelings are very deep, the two have always followed Zhao Zhi's will to do things, and have never had any self-assertive behavior.

Among all the generals, there is only one person who has neither too much personal affection nor extraordinary talent with Zhao Zhi, just a simple relationship between monarchs and ministers, but can be trusted and reused by Zhao Zhi, and this person is Ma Wu.

Ma Wu was born in a wealthy family of landlords, did not like to read since he was a child, and when he was young, he was convicted by the government of causing serious injuries and committing crimes, and was convicted by the government and sent to Longyou to join the army.

Ma Wu has a martial strategy, and he is quite brave in battle, but it is far worse than Huang Zhen, among all the generals, it is also a medium eight, and his personality is rough, he likes to scold, he is informal, he is uneven, he likes to meddle with things, although Ma Wu is not greedy for money, but he is extremely lustful, there are more than 40 wives and concubines, and Huang Wei's wife and concubine each have one person, one son, one woman, in sharp contrast, his character and private life are disorderly, naturally offended many people, and often have ministers impeached him, But Zhao Zhi has always ignored it, and instead reused his people more and more.

Li Xun has the deepest memory of Ma Wu, that is, the battle of Longyou is about to break out, Ma Wu was entrusted with a heavy task, before leading the army to march, Zhao Zhi once said to Ma Wu, if this battle is won, I will be rewarded to you, Ma Wu is very arrogant and said to Zhao Zhi, if this battle is lost, the head of the minister will be given to the emperor, if it is defeated, the minister does not want anything else, the emperor will reward the minister with a few beautiful palace maids.

With such a bold statement, what was Zhao Zhi's reaction after hearing it? Haha laughed, not angry at all, and immediately rewarded Ma Wu with three beautiful palace maids, and said: If you return victorious, you will be rewarded with three.

The three of them drank late, Li Xun and Zhu Zhengguo didn't drink too much, just half drunk, Shan Qiu drank a lot by himself because of his heart, but in the end he was drunk, and Li Xun let him sleep at home.

Before parting, Zhu Zhengguo pulled Li Xun and asked, "You seem to have something to say to Shan Qiu just now, why didn't you say it in the end?" Is it because I'm here that it's inconvenient to say it clearly? ”

Li Xun punched Zhu Zhengguo hard, and said with a tiger face: "We are brothers, what can't I say in front of you?" ”

Immediately, he said what was on his mind.

Zhu Zhengguo rubbed his chest and nodded: "If Shan Qiu can really go to Longyou with you, it is also an opportunity, with his ability, he will definitely be able to be reused by the emperor again." ”
