Chapter 334: Enwei and Differential Treatment

Shi Bin wanted to leave after eating, but he felt that some things didn't seem to be done, so he didn't leave the county seat of Ganxian County that night, not to mention that it was not safe to walk at night, and it was disrespectful to leave in a hurry.

Thinking about everything he said during the day in the guest room that Mo Qizhi had arranged for himself, Shi Bin felt that he really had to think about how to deal with the relationship with Jingnan and the scholars in Sichuan. Before, it was a discord and sent his men to clean it up, although the goal was achieved, but the means were a little rude, which is indeed not a good way to govern the country.

Now that Sai Zilong has gone to Ezhou to take up his post, Xu Feng is the only one who can give advice, looking at a set of tea sets in front of him, Shi Bin feels that he is the teapot full of tea, and Xu Feng is a teacup. Although I don't know why I think so, I feel that these large and small teacups are his brothers.

Now that there is only one teacup beside him, and it is a small teacup, Shi Bin suddenly felt a lot more burdened on his body, and began to consider whether to pour some tea out.

After thinking about it for a while, Shi Bin decided to pour out the tea later, because he had just soaked Biluochun in boiling water, and the tea would not taste good if he poured it too early, so he had to brew it somewhat.

Shi Bin didn't completely agree with Mo Ruzhi's statement, and said before that accepting it was just a courtesy. The most disagreeable thing is to win over those dulicits as much as possible. In Shi Bin's opinion, it may be too cruel to exterminate the duplicitous three clans, but as long as Tongyuan is concerned, he should kill the leader and raid the family.

But Shi Bin always felt that there was something imperfect in his ideas, after all, this method must be simple and rude, and it was no different from being cleaned up if he was disobedient before. Once Tongyuan has to kill and raid the house, how many heads do you have to lose? Shi Bin shuddered at the thought of this. Therefore, the method must be gentle, and it needs to be as graceful as Li Zengbo and them. But where does grace come from, and where does it go? Shi Bin couldn't find an answer, because he was about to face not one or two people, but a large group of people.

Because he couldn't convince himself to accept Mo Zhi's proposal to win over duplicity, Shi Bin had nothing to gain in his subsequent thinking. Because his hatred of duplex will not be weaker than that of traitors to the Great Song. Since there has been no progress, Shi Bin had no choice but to call Xu Feng outside the door and asked, "Xu Feng, are you right about what you said during the day?" ”

Suddenly hearing Shi Bin's words, Xu Feng was very surprised, because he clearly remembered that Shi Bin agreed with Mo Ruzhi's opinion during the day. I didn't expect to ask if Mo Xiang's words were right or wrong.

"My lord, may I ask what you mean by this, don't you agree with what Lord Mo said?"

"No, I still agree with him, but not completely." Shi Bin said with a smile.

"I don't fully agree with it, this is normal. Then what part of the story do you disagree with? I remember he just said three types of people. Xu Feng said.

"Yes, just those three types of people. Those who support me, duplicity, and desperate refuge in the Yuanren. I don't quite agree with what Master Mo said about trying my best to win over those duplicity, although I know it's correct, but I still don't feel like it's acceptable. Shi Bin smiled helplessly.

"My lord, it's not wrong to think that Lord Mo is right, but it's really hard to accept, because duplicity is the most annoying group of people. However, my lord, there are not the most loyal and treacherous people who are loyal to the country, but those who are two-faced are the most. ”

Xu Feng's words, Shi Bin had already thought of them, but from Xu Feng's mouth, Shi Bin felt that he seemed to have no choice but to accept Mo's proposal.

"Those duplicitous people are very hateful on the one hand to forcibly occupy the land and displace the people, and it is precisely because of them that the people of Li can not live in peace, if it were not for the stability of the territory, I would have slaughtered them all. Now you and Mo seem to want me to win them over..." Shi Bin gritted his teeth and said.

Knowing what Shi Bin was thinking, Xu Feng immediately said: "My lord, not everyone thinks about serving the country and the people. There are also some other ideas, such as 'people do not die for themselves', 'the dead friends do not die and the poor do', and so on. My lord, although I am not duplicitous, but I don't have the Great Song Dynasty in my heart, I only plan to follow the Lord to fight against the Yuan, and the survival of the Song Dynasty has nothing to do with me. ”

I wanted to correct Xu Feng's erroneous understanding of 'people don't kill the heavens and the earth for themselves', because the 'for themselves' here means self-cultivation, not for their own benefit. But his words show from one side that ordinary people do not have much concept of the state, at most they only have the concept of following the leader to protect the ethnic group.

As for those duplicitous, it is estimated that they don't even have the concept of protecting the race, only the idea of ensuring their own fine clothes and food. It's just that these guys are the most powerful, so they must be wooed whether they want to or not.

"Well, that makes sense. But you can't win it all over, if that's the case, it's all pointless. ”

"Of course, adults can't win them all, you need to try your best to win over those who are selfish but still have some conscience, don't anger those who are selfish but don't pose a threat to you, and eradicate those who may change from Tongyuan to Touyuan at any time and threaten you." Xu Feng said while thinking.

"Okay, I see. After returning to Chengdu, I will do what you suggest, and see how many scholars in Sichuan and Jingnan are worthy of my wooing. Shi Bin sighed deeply.

Knowing that Shi Bin must have a knot in his heart, Xu Feng certainly didn't want Shi Bin to be in such a situation, so he plucked up the courage and said: "My lord, the villain still has something I want to ask the adult to listen to me." ”

"Well, let's talk about it." Shi Bin said, "Although your words are bitter medicine, they can still cure diseases." ”

"Thank you for affirming me so much, but I'm afraid this is disrespectful, and I ask for your forgiveness." Xu Feng said with some apprehension.

Xu Feng rarely spoke like this, Shi Bin immediately knew that what he was going to say was definitely not a good thing, and most of them would rush into himself, in order to calm his heart, let him say everything he wanted to say, so he smiled: "The speaker is not guilty, and the one who hears is full of caution, Xu Feng said with confidence." ”

"Yes, sir." Xu Feng was obviously still very hesitant after hearing this, but finally said it, "My lord, do you remember what happened to me and the smuggling in the north?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Shi Bin's face was very gloomy, he felt embarrassed, before he smuggled was actually Tongyuan, although the purpose was to get good horses to form cavalry, but there was already Tongyuan's behavior, which could not be denied.

Seeing this, Xu Feng immediately said: "Of course, the adults are not Tongyuan, they are for our Great Song Dynasty, but many of those two-faced people Tongyuan actually just want to order yellow and white things, not really want to sell the country." Those high-ranking officials in the Zhao Chamber of Commerce are the best examples. ”

"You mean, if it's just smuggling, as long as there is no traitor, you don't have to worry about it, you can win it over?" Shi Bin asked with a frown.

"This is what it means to be humble, not to mention that this kind of person cannot be killed no matter how much you kill." Xu Feng replied very worriedly.

After thinking about it for a long time, Shi Bin could only agree with what Xu Feng said, and signaled him to go out and rest by himself. Lying on the bed, Shi Bin carefully recalled Xu Feng and Mo Xiangzhi's words, and decided to ask a very realistic question the next day: how to distinguish the good from the bad of those two-faced.

Shi Bin's sleep is very good, when he opens his eyes, it is already the third pole of the sun, in order not to make Mo Bizhi feel that he is actually an empty mediocre official, Shi Bin quickly washed up and got dressed, and went to see Mo Ruzhi.

According to Xu Feng, he got up and started working at a moment, and now he should be waiting in the study Shi Bin did not go to the county office.

As soon as he saw Shi Bin enter the door, he immediately got up and saluted, although Shi Bin was a little embarrassed on his face, he pretended not to know and returned the salute naturally.

Since Shi Bin was anxious, he felt that he had been away from Chengdu for a long time this time and had to go back as soon as possible, so as soon as he sat down, he went straight to the point and said with a smile: "I thought about what Master Mo said for a night, and decided to do what you said, which is indeed the best way." ”

"Thank you for truly adopting what you say, it's a great honor to be humble."

"You don't have to be so polite, you should be as good as you are. However, there is one thing I want to ask for advice or two. Shi Bin said solemnly.

"My lord, please say, the humble duty knows everything, and the words are endless."

"How can this official judge which duplicities are worth wooing? This question seems to be more realistic and troublesome. ”

"Your Excellency is really a good official who is diligent and loves the people, and he is always concerned about government affairs, and the problem you are thinking about has already helped your adult come up with a solution last night."

"Okay, then Master Mo will talk about it."

"This kind of differential treatment is to be standard, the adult's official reputation is good because of sympathy for the people of Li, and the adult's judgment of which scholars are worthy of winning over can also be based on this."

"It is indeed important to have a good reputation, and a good reputation does not necessarily mean that you will not be treasonous. A bad reputation doesn't necessarily mean that you are unpatriotic. Shi Bin said suspiciously.

"Your Excellency is very worried. So this reputation can only be one aspect, but the lowly thinks that even if a person with a good reputation is two-faced, most of them will not be vicious, and they have their last resort reasons for wanting to take refuge in the Yuanren. ”

Shi Bin agrees with this, if you want to have a good reputation, it is not enough to shout a few slogans, and to do some practical things that benefit the country and the people, so it is indeed worth fighting for.

"What about those who don't have a good reputation? After all, most of the scholars will annex land, issue usurious loans, and even forcibly occupy the women of the people, and do a lot of bad things. Shi Bin asked.

"My lord, these people with bad reputations can't be distinguished by reputation, but by how much support they give you." Mo Qizhi said with great certainty, "The more support you give to adults, the more they show that they are more interested in adults, which means that they still don't want to be your enemies." Even if both sides bet on adults, there is no need to hate them, the sea is tolerant and tolerant. ”

"That's what I said..." Shi Bin said hesitantly.

"When the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no fugitives. Since the adults don't want to be in a safe corner, of course they have to be able to tolerate these guys, Xia Guan remembers that when the adults were fighting against the Yuan on Jinghu North Road, Lord Li Zengbo took refuge in you because of the generosity of the adults. Mo Yizhi smiled slightly.

"Master Mo is reasonable, and this official will judge how to deal with those duplicities according to what you said from the reputation and support given to me."

"Thank you for your trust. I would like to say one more thing. ”

"Lord Mo, please speak."

"If you really win over those scholars, please don't deal with them at will, even if you make a big mistake, please be gentle. Although most of these famous families are no longer officials, their influence in the local area is not small. Maybe it's not enough to support adults, but it's very powerful to cause destruction. Mo Zhizhi said very solemnly.

Mo Ruzhi's words reminded Shi Bin that it was difficult to build, but it was much easier to destroy, and the king of destruction was these clans. So even if you are furious, you can't go on a killing spree.
