Chapter 741: The Plan to Reward the Ministers
It has been a few days since Shi Bin was called emperor, and people who resolutely supported him everywhere, such as Wang San, Li Chao, Yi Jun, Liu Xiao, Xie Qiangbing, Li Xu, Sai Zilong, Sai Zhangfei, Li Zengbo, etc., have put down their work and rushed to Lin'an day and night, obviously afraid of falling behind others and suffering losses.
Wang San and Li Chao, the two guys with the most thoughts and the fastest reactions, arrived in Lin'an almost at the same time at the fastest speed. Since there is no reason to avoid bumping into each other, the two brothers didn't bother to rest, so they simply entered the palace together to see Shi Bin.
When they entered the imperial study and saw Shi Bin, the new emperor, Wang San and Li Chao were a little crying and laughing. In the past, when he was the Duke of Qi, the King of Chu and the Emperor Regent, Shi Bin was still good at what he did, but now that he is the emperor, he is hanging, he doesn't stand or sit. He reclined in a chair with his breasts exposed, his legs resting on one corner of the desk.
Finding that the two of them had bad faces, and were obviously dissatisfied with their lack of attention to appearance, Shi Bin smiled a little embarrassedly, "The two virtuous brothers are here?" I'll just say that you two must be the fastest, and you're the smartest. But I didn't expect you to come together, which surprised me. ”
"Big brother, we rushed here as soon as we heard that you were the emperor and changed the name of the country, after all, Li Xu and Zhao Gang may not be able to suppress the scene." Wang San made an excuse to leave his post without permission, and said very solemnly.
"What Wang San said is exactly what I think in my heart, although Wang Yi, Li Shao, Li Tingzhi and Chen Yan now support the eldest brother, but they are all weak scholars and may not be able to deal with emergencies. Li Xu and Zhao Gang are not strategic, and they are easy to be used by the younger generation, so the younger brother and the two must come. Li Chao followed.
Although these words are half-true, they are still very happy that Wang San and Li Chao can come to Shi Bin for the first time, if there is no support from the two of them, Shi Bin really feels bottomless. Although he is not afraid that those troublemakers will turn the sky upside down, Shi Bin knows that he may not be able to deal with it easily, and there may be some small mistakes, but he doesn't want to have a little mistake.
"Thank you two virtuous brothers for thinking so much about your eldest brother, and when I officially ascend the throne, I will definitely repay you well." Shi Bin said very sincerely.
believes that Shi Bin's words are true, so Wang San and Li Chao also said that they will definitely help Shi Bin lay a good foundation for Daxiang, so as not to have any hidden worries at that time.
"Now that my eldest brother has ascended the throne and become emperor, what do you think should happen next? I'm a little confused. ”
The answer to this question is very different from Li Chao. Wang San thought that Shi Bin should first pay attention to his appearance, and asked the officials in the palace who specialized in training appearance to teach Shi Bin how to be an emperor. Li Chao believes that Shi Bin should think clearly about how to deal with different situations before others come to Lin'an.
This time, Shi Bin felt that Wang San's suggestion was not good enough and was too biased in the situation, so he did not adopt it. But in order to make Wang San, a big thinker, feel more comfortable, Shi Bin still promised that he would never pay attention to his appearance again, and would take a little time out to train every day, so as to ensure the majesty of the emperor.
Now that the direction has been set, Shi Bin asked the two big think tanks how to deal with those upcoming heroes. Although Wang San was a little unhappy, he must have known the severity, so he immediately joined the discussion.
"Big brother, maybe we can call you big brother this time, we will miss it very much." Wang San said with some nostalgia, "Since the eldest brother plans to think of a way to deal with it first, the younger brother now has an idea, and he should be able to help the eldest brother." ”
I was very happy that Wang San could take into account the overall situation and deal with it positively, Shi Bin couldn't help but praise him a few words and asked him to say the way.
"Big brother, Li Xu, Yi Jun, Liu Xiao, Xie Qiangbing, Zhao Gang and the two brothers of the Sai family, you should be appeased first. They either follow the eldest brother all the year round and are loyal to the eldest brother, or they are relatives of the eldest brother, and nothing can go wrong with them. If they start infighting, it will be extremely detrimental to the eldest brother's rule of the world. ”
Can't afford infighting? These words reminded Shi Bin that since ancient times, he has not suffered from widowhood but unevenness. Many people are poor and their brothers are like each other when they are down, and once they get glory and wealth, they turn against each other.
"Brother Xian is right, it is necessary to consider it carefully, and not let everyone have grievances. So how do you think you can keep people from resentment? ”
"Big brother, it's not appropriate for the younger brother to say more about this matter, there are two female Zhuge beside you, it may be better to ask them to come up with ideas." Li Chao said without hesitation.
Of course, I understand what Li Chao meant, because Li Chao is also an outsider, and it would be better for Jia Ling and Sai Xishi, two capable insiders, to be the staff officers for the reward. In this way, the two outsiders do not have to become the target of public criticism. After listening to Li Chao's reminder, Wang San also closed the mouth that was about to speak, obviously he didn't want to be the target of the public.
Seeing the appearance of the two of them to protect themselves, Shi Bin was furious, and it didn't take long for him to explode: "Wang San, Li Chao, what do you two mean?" Is it to protect oneself? Since you want to protect yourself, what are you going to do when you come to the palace to see me? Wouldn't it be better to hide at the post station and wait for someone else to come? ”
Seeing Shi Bin angry, Wang San and Li Chao immediately regretted it, Wang San glared at Li Chao fiercely, and immediately said: "Big brother misunderstood, Li Chao means that we are not suitable to talk about specific details, and probably Fang Xue can still be a staff officer." ”
What are the details? Still so cunning, Shi Bin sneered. "Okay, then you can tell me about the general plan!"
"Yes, big brother. The eldest brother should make all the heroes clear in rewards and punishments, different in descendants, and different in relatives. When Wang San said this, he obviously thought about it again, and then said, "But please don't reward your relatives too much. ”
Shi Bin was quite satisfied with Wang San's suggestions, and indeed only mentioned a general strategy, not specific people. Since Wang San said it, Li Chao couldn't be left behind, Shi Bin gave him a look and motioned him to hurry up.
This time, Li Chao was a little embarrassed, because it seemed that everything was said by Wang San, and he didn't know what to say. After some contemplation, he finally spoke: "The eldest brother first met Li Xu and Yi Jun on the top of the main hall, and then gathered these brothers with great merits and summoned them into the inner court. Hold a small banquet in the inner court, and talk about business at the banquet. ”
Li Chao's method is really good, Shi Bin is also very satisfied, and gives him a feeling of 'releasing military power with a glass of wine', but it should be like this, so Shi Bin has no guilt. Seeing that Wang San and Li Chao were sitting on pins and needles here, Shi Bin also knew that it was impossible to ask any good ideas from them, so he personally sent the two out of the palace.
Since Li Chao said that this kind of thing is suitable for Jia Ling and Sai Xishi to be staff officers, and he and Wang San did not say a specific plan on this issue, Shi Bin could only turn around and go to see the two female Zhuge . After all, the most important thing is not to let internal relatives grudge.
When they arrived at Jia Ling's dormitory, the new queen was really discussing with Sai Xishi, the new queen, about rebuilding their respective palaces. Seeing that Shi Bin was coming, they no longer discussed this idle matter, but asked him why the emperor came.
"The two queens are very interested, but it's a pity that I am not so interested."
"Why? The emperor doesn't seem to be happy? ”
"It's not just unhappy, it's very unhappy, I knew it was like this, Xiaoling, I really don't want to be the bird emperor anymore." Shi Bin said with some frustration.
These words made Jia Ling and Sai Xishi very unhappy, why is Shi Bin talking such nonsense? Why can't you bear it so much? Just like to act spontaneously, idle clouds and wild cranes?
"Husband, why are you saying this again?" Sai Xi Shi asked puzzled.
"Wang San and Li Chao came just now, and they said it well at first, telling me to pay attention to my appearance, and asking me not to favor one over the other when rewarding the ministers, so as not to resent. Li Chao even directly said that he wanted me to ask you, and it was inconvenient for him and Wang San to speak. Wang San's slippery head naturally shut up. Does this not frustrate me? Oh, and in the end, Li Chao gave me a good way, asking me to summon Li Xu and them to the inner court for a drink. ”
Anyone who encounters this situation will be frustrated, after all, the brothers who used to be like each other in the past are now distancing themselves from each other.
Knowing why Shi Bin behaved like this, Jia Ling said: "Husband, this can't be blamed on Wang San and Li Chao. There are too many interests involved in rewarding everyone, and it is normal for them to want to protect themselves. In the eyes of the slaves, it's good that they're willing to remind you like that. You know, no one wants to be the target of the public. ”
"My sister is right, there are too many interests involved, in fact, my sister and I shouldn't interfere too much, because our family members are relatives. It is never a good thing for relatives to interfere in politics. Sai Xi Shi said very directly.
"It's good to be meritocratic, I don't care what that person's identity is."
"In that case, the concubine and her sister will also help her husband as a counselor, but if there is something wrong, you can't blame us, let alone settle accounts after the autumn."
Shi Bin is not a person who likes to settle accounts after the autumn, and now he hopes to get the assistance of the two female Zhuge , and he even made a package ticket, saying that no matter what the two said, he was responsible for making the decision, and the two of them only had to make ideas.
In this way, Jia Ling and Sai Xishi were relieved, and Jia Ling was the first to say: "Husband, please transfer my father back to Lin'an from Huainan and give him a noble enough name." ”
It's actually going to be empty! Shi Bin was very surprised by Jia Ling's suggestion to set aside his father, and shook his head again and again to express his disagreement. In his opinion, although Jia Yidao is a little greedy, his ability is actually good. As long as it is well appointed, it can still play a big role.
"Husband, I know that you think that the slave father's father still has some ability to take on great responsibilities, but it is precisely because he can still take on great responsibilities that I want you to empty him. Have you forgotten how my father rose to high position? ”
Thinking about it carefully, Shi Bin remembered that Jia Rudao was prosperous because Li Zong favored his own sister Jia Guifei. Jia Rudao was able to tilt the power of the government and the opposition when he was an uncle, if he became the ruler of the country and held a lot of power, then he would still have it?
"Okay, then make your father the third secretary of Kaifu Yitong, King Wu."
"Husband, the concubine also has a word, please listen quietly." Sai Si Shi followed.
"Tell me, Shih Tzu. Don't you want to learn from Jia Ling and want me to empty your two brothers? ”
"No, I know very well how many pounds and taels my two brothers have, and their positions are the most suitable for them now. If there is a change, everything is up to the husband, just please don't do too much. Sai Xi Shi smiled slyly.
Since he was not afraid of a fire in the backyard, Shi Bin continued to talk to them about other things. The most talked about is naturally how to reward the ministers. In the eyes of Jia Ling and Sai Xishi, the most rewarding and guarded against are Wang San and Li Chao. They are the most capable and prestige among Shi Bin's supporters, and if they don't control it well, even if they don't rebel, maybe someone will force them to rebel and follow in Shi Bin's footsteps. Shi Bin very much agrees with the views of the two, he doesn't want the country that he has worked hard to build down to become someone else's bag in a blink of an eye.
After thinking about it, Shi Bin planned to crown Wang San as the founding prince and left prime minister of Yichun County, and Li Chao as the founding prince and privy envoy of Nanyang County.
Yi Jun, Liu Xiao, Xie Qiangbing, Li Xu, Zhao Gang, and Li Zengbo were respectively named the founding duke of Puyang County, Jiangling County, Teng County, Longchuan County, Chaozhou County, and Linshui County.
Wang Lixin, Cheng Yuanfeng, Wang Yi, and Li Shao were named the founding marquis of Ling County, the founding marquis of Ye County, the founding marquis of Xinxian County, and the founding marquis of Longshan County.
Li Tingzhi and Qian Zhong were named the founding uncles of Qianyang and Xinyang. Chen Yan and Zhang Shizhong were named the founding sons of Luonan and Yuenan.
Sai Zilong and Sai Zhang Fei are still the original founding marquis of Yueyang County and the founding uncle of Xiangyin.
Jia Ling and Sai Xishi both agreed with this idea, but said that it would be better for someone to balance Wang San and Li Chao respectively, and these two people are naturally Wang Yi and Li Shao. Therefore, they were appointed as the Right Prime Minister and the Privy Counsellor. And the rest of the people did their own duties.
