Chapter 799: Victory is not martial
In February, spring has arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, the weather is warmer, and the trees are green, showing a vibrant appearance. And since Zhao Yu arrived, it has been rainy for days, and he has grown hair in the house, and today the clouds have cleared and the fog has dispersed, and he can finally come out to breathe. Liu Zhixue knew that the little emperor did not like to live in the official office, so he chose a manor by the river, which is said to be repaired by Zhang Xiaoxiang, the former champion, and it has remained intact after changing hands several times in the past hundred years, but it has a sense of simplicity and vicissitudes.
These days are the most comfortable days for Zhao Yu since the Northern Expedition, the war is basically over, and he is temporarily handled by the two prime ministers except for urgent official documents because of his 'ill illness', and he does not have to deal with cumbersome official documents every day. After turning around, he found a pavilion by the water to rest, and Wang De immediately commanded a group of small yellow doormen to hang curtains around them, put a table and soft couches and other things, and light the fire to make tea.
"Official, this is the greeting sheet and the attached gift list submitted by various states and counties yesterday!" Zhao Yu sat for a while, and Wang De sent a stack of scrolls.
"Oh, that's good, I can still be courteous if I pretend to be sick!" Zhao Hao smiled and looked at it casually, he didn't care about what he sent, he just wanted to see who was thinking about him.
"Official, most of the supplements and medicinal materials sent from all over the country are here, and we can open a pharmacy here!" Wang De said with a sad face when he heard this. Because most of the officials appointed after the reconquest of the lost land were from the Qiongzhou Dynasty, and they lived together in such a small place for many years, they all knew the temper of the little emperor very well, and knew that he did not like officials to give gifts, and did not ask all over the country to pay tribute and special products to increase the burden of the people. So this time, when I heard that the little emperor was finally sick, he sent local treasures and precious medicinal materials to show filial piety.
"Hehe, there are also random medicines!" Zhao Yu responded with a smile.
"Where do they care about this, they just want to curry favor with the officials!" Wang Deyan said.
"You're still a fool!" Zhao Yu looked at Wang De and said with a smile.
"Official, is the little one wrong?" Wang De was inexplicable and puzzled.
"It's not all wrong, just take all the things you send and tell the people who come that they have received them." Zhao Yu didn't explain much, he knew that officials with a little brains would find that the atmosphere in the court and China was different, and it was not normal for the emperor to delay returning to Beijing for a long time, and he realized that it was time to stand in line again, so it was fake to send something, indicating that his attitude was true.
Zhao Hao has been tossing in the whirlpool of power for so many years, and he has understood that in addition to the official history of Huanghuang, there are also unspoken rules, that is, the often said dark lines of history. And even when singing and dancing are peaceful and prosperous, there will be a great deal of power because of the struggle for power. What's more, although the current Xing Dynasty returned to Jiangnan and returned to Lin'an, it was actually tantamount to reopening the country, and the monarchs and ministers of the Xing Dynasty who had experienced the death of the country already had a strong sense of crisis in the era of serious crisis in reality. Some people not only realize that this is not only the time to reward meritorious deeds, but also the day to settle accounts after the autumn, and thus feel the crisis.
If we carefully sort out the process of the rise of countries in the past dynasties along the logic of historical development, it can be seen that this time is also the time when capable people will emerge, and there are endless examples of people like Sun Bin who used wisdom to help Qi and finally pull Wei down from the throne of the overlord and replace it with Qi. One of the most famous is that during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang assisted Liu Bei to split the earth and seal the king, which not only changed Liu Bei's fate, but also rewrote the history of China.
But from the context of historical development, Zhao Yu also found that the rise of a person is not so easy, Zhuge Liang had a secret fight before Zhou Yu and then with Pang Tong, and at the same time was squeezed out by many old people around Liu Bei, but everyone understands the final outcome. This shows that a truly wise person can use his wisdom correctly to flexibly control the people and things around him and make them operate according to their own needs. And true wisdom and planning are crucial not only for the fate of the individual, but also for the fate of the group, and even for the fate of the nation.
The ancients Zeng Yun: One person is enough to prosper the country, and one person is enough to lose the country. Zhao Hao didn't dare to boast that he was a figure like Sun Bin and Zhuge Liang, but the government and the opposition evaluated themselves as 'wise and close to demons', which shows that they still recognize themselves. However, after some investigation, he found that if the king of Yiyang County was not wise and foolish, he was an extremely mediocre person.
Although Zhao Mengqi is also a nobleman, but when it is passed on to his father, he is about to come out of the five suits, so the title is gone, but he has made up for a flattery, that is, a seven-grade position, and he has never done a real job, and the little money that is subsidized by the clan is not enough to maintain his life. The living cost of Lin'an was high, and the family moved to Huzhou, where the consumption was low, after asking Zong Zhengsi, and bought some land with the last family fund, and barely lived by renting.
At this time, the life of the family was relatively well-off, and the children in the family were able to learn to read. But within a few years of the life of the small landlord, his father and mother went, and the subsidy of the clan came to an end. After the brothers broke down, Zhao Mengqi also divided a few acres of land, and it was not possible to live by renting, and he didn't have a lot of brains, he couldn't even make the list in the township test, and he couldn't find a small official to live like other brothers; It's even more impossible to do business, and only after selling half of the land at a loss can it be regarded as filling the hole.
In this way, Zhao Mengqi could only plow and live a pastoral life. It can be pointed out that these few acres of land are difficult to sustain life, so I have to go to the river to fish and catch shrimp part-time to subsidize the family, and the life is inevitably tight, and I can't even add a new piece of clothes all year round. However, he is also a fool and has a foolish fortune, in the case of Meng Yuan pressing step by step, Empress Dowager Xie in order to appease the wrath of heaven, from the ministers invited to rehabilitate Zhao Hong, but he has been extinct, so he has to choose an heir for him.
Empress Dowager Xie is such a shrewd person, how could she make trouble for herself, so as not to find a new competitor for her children and grandchildren, so she must find an 'honest one'. So among the many candidates, he selected the 'simple' Zhao Mengqi, and named him the king of Yiyang County, gave him a mansion, and rewarded him with gold and silver. But just when he thought that a good day was coming, a few days later, the army of Mengyuan came to the city, and the princes and ministers began to flee.
In terms of saving his life, Zhao Mengqi was not stupid, the issuance situation was not right, and the gold and silver fine soft rolls in the mansion led his family to make up and escaped, and returned to Huzhou. I don't know if Zong Zhengsi forgot to enter it into the spectrum in the chaos, or if the record was wrong, he actually escaped the large-scale search of Boyan according to the map, avoided the fate of accompanying the Queen Mother and the Emperor Beijiao, and lived a true life again.
Although Zhao Mengqi was not on the list of Meng Yuan, but with such an experience, he also became a frightened bird, and the little property under hiding everywhere was quickly lost, and he could only live by farming for others, the family lived a half-starved life, the son couldn't marry a daughter-in-law, the daughter couldn't marry, and he didn't dare to say much when he was bullied, so it can be said how desolate and desolate it was.
After Jiangnan was recovered, when someone came to look for him, Zhao Mengqi was still frightened and didn't dare to admit it, and was finally forcibly sent to Lin'an to know that good days were coming again. However, he learned from the experience this time, and when the money comes, he spends it quickly, and the delicious food never lasts overnight, and he listens to everything others say, worrying that the good days may be gone again one day. And their family has never experienced a rich life, so it is impossible not to laugh at it, similar to licking dishes in public, drinking mouthwash, and wiping their buttocks.
In this way, Zhao Mengqi's luck is still good, although he has come back after a little hardship. In his previous life, Zhao Yu knew that people's success requires a little luck, but he can't hope for the gift of fate, because luck can be met but not sought. And talent and instinct cannot be relied on, he understands that emotional things are unstable after all, and even sometimes unreliable.
Success must rely on rationality, rely on wisdom, through rational analysis, serious thinking, and in-depth exploration of the inner laws and connections of things, accurately grasp the individual, grasp the society, and grasp the world. In this way, we will be able to truly achieve more success in life with fewer failures. Similarly, for a successful politician, learning and rational thinking are very crucial in his upbringing. It is necessary to grasp the people and things around you and control the things around you through wisdom. And it is necessary to practice repeatedly, through thousands of successes and failures, to be able to cultivate a keen sense.
This is a very important feeling, with which we can have a strategic subconscious, that is, a subconscious, so that we can quickly grasp the crux of things without having to think repeatedly and painstakingly. With this feeling, you can subconsciously and correctly grasp the development trend of things when you encounter anything, so that you can flexibly set up strategies and adapt to changes according to the development of things, so that you can gain a favorable position in the competition.
"Alas, this is a bit too much, I feel numb!" Zhao Yu took the "Imperial Daily" and read it, and said with some embarrassment. Thinking about himself but wanting to be an opponent with such a thing, it really ruined his reputation for a lifetime, and if he succeeded in usurping the throne, he would be ashamed to death without waiting for him to kill himself.
"Official, it's far from what is written in the newspaper with a small one, if you let a small one write ......," Wang De said with a smile.
"You must not write, and not a word about me is allowed to be revealed to the outside world, including everyone in the inner palace, if something goes wrong, I will pick your skin first!" Zhao Yu interrupted without waiting for him to finish.
"Don't worry, the officials still understand these rules, yesterday someone wanted to inquire about the news from a small yellow door, and I severely punished him!" Wang De hurriedly replied.
"Well, well done." Zhao Hao nodded and said, "Now is an extraordinary time, we must take strict precautions, especially the people in the backyard must be replaced by the elderly, and the food must be purchased by our own people, and no more people will send it." ”
"Official, what's going on?" At first, Wang De only thought that the little emperor was lazy, so he pretended to be sick and was unwilling to return to Lin'an, but after listening to what His Majesty said was so serious, he realized that something was wrong.
"Someone is trying to harm me!" Zhao Yu asked Wang De to come over and whisper.
"What......" Wang De was taken aback when he heard this, and couldn't help but raise his voice, but he quickly realized that something was wrong, and lowered his voice and said, "Someone dares to harm the official family, he doesn't want to live!" ”
"It's being investigated now, and it's not clear yet, so we can only avoid it here." Zhao Yu shook his head and said.
"Is it a tartar, or is it a ......," Wang De asked again.
"Thief!" Zhao Yu said softly.
"It's really hard to prevent thieves, the little one will be careful, find out and let the little one cut him with his own hands!" Wang De listened and said viciously.
"By the way, I want to ask you something, who else in the palace knows the king of Yiyang County now?" Zhao Yu suddenly remembered something and asked Wang Dedao.
"King Yiyang, there shouldn't be many people who have seen it." Wang De didn't know why His Majesty suddenly asked about this person, and after thinking for a while, he said, "The little one was still in the Empress Dowager's palace at that time, and I remember that things were done in a hurry, and the queen of Yiyang County was canonized, and he was only ordered to thank the Queen of Xie Tianhou and Emperor Deyou in the inner palace, and he was let go back without giving a banquet, and I just glanced at it from a distance, and I didn't see it clearly at all." ”
"There were a few people who escorted the Queen Mother and Her Majesty out of the palace in Cining Palace, and later died on the way to escape, scattered, only Dou Xing was alive, and maybe only he was the only one who had seen him. The rest of the palace people are said to have moved north with Emperor Deyou and Empress Dowager Xie. ”
"Well, you check in detail and find out if anyone has seen the king of Yiyang County, you have to be quiet, don't make a noise!" Zhao Yu listened and instructed.
"Yes, the little one will do this!" Wang De nodded vigorously.
"Is it possible that the Queen Mother has seen her?" Zhao Hao asked uneasily.
"The Queen Mother was far away from Cining Palace at that time, so she shouldn't have seen it." Wang De thought for a moment and said for sure.
"Then only Dou Xing has seen the king of Yiyang County in the palace, and he is nearly sixty years old!" Zhao Yu said again.
"Well, it's already one in sixty, it's time to go home and retire!" Wang De heard the little emperor mention the king of Yiyang County several times, and realized something.
"If you have a chance, you can tell him that there are some things to say and some things to not say, and if you do it right, I will let him live out his old age in peace." Zhao Yu said that although Dou Xing is still in Qiongzhou now, he can't help but take precautions and plug the loopholes that can be plugged first.
"The little one understands, and he must tell him what the official family means!" Wang De has been by the little emperor's side for a long time, and some words can be understood without being picky, and he understands that the king of Yiyang County has offended His Majesty, so he immediately salutes.
Zhao Yu nodded, picked up the newspaper around him and looked at it one by one, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and those people finally showed up under their own step-by-step pressure, and began to post articles in the newspaper to 'whitewash' Zhao Mengqi. This shows that his plan has worked, then he can move on to the next step, and things will gradually become clear in the next two days, but he still hopes that those people will retreat from the difficulties and not force themselves to do it......
