(Thanks to Brother G for the valuable monthly pass,)

On the night of entering Yecheng, Liu Yi feasted a group of civil and military in the lobby of the state capital, the wine table culture is one of the long-standing inheritances of China, and in the late Han Dynasty, such a technique is more common, and it is very effective to enhance the fit between his subordinates and himself and even improve their loyalty. The so-called "banquet bottles are always full, and the guests are not empty!" In the life of the late Han scholars, banquets played a pivotal role, and Liu Yi was not exempt from this.

Generally speaking, in high-ranking officials and large families, there will be a group of singers and dancers specially used to entertain VIPs, don't think about it, it is a song and dance girl rather than a song and dance courtesan, which is more of an artistic enjoyment, if you show color and soul between the banquet is to be ridiculed. Of course, Zhao Yun will have such a singing and dancing troupe in the Jizhou Thorn History Mansion, and it is still a group carefully built by a master, and this master is Jin Jiu, the owner of Beiping***!

Today's *** has been overwhelmed by the closed moon pavilion known as the well-deserved first Qinglou of the Han Dynasty, in Liu Yi's eyes, Jin Jiu is a talent who is very good at management and management, not only that, but he should be called the first Han in the field of cultivating singing and dancing girls. Liu Yi's purpose is to employ talents, no matter what aspect of this talent is always useful, Guo Jia and others asked Liu Yi about this, and he replied to Meng Weijun's rooster and dog thief, and everyone was convinced.

The brothel Qinglou of the Han Dynasty had the responsibility of cultivating maids and dancers for the official family, and at this time it almost became a professional institution for King Yan and this, and this team of singing and dancing girls on the Zilong Mansion was the best choice regardless of their appearance and figure, and Jin Jiu did not dare to be a little sloppy. At the beginning, Zhao Yun was very uncomfortable with this, and he was invincible above the battle array, and he preferred to drink freely in the camp with his subordinates, but the eldest brother said it well, and in his position, he had to seek his own government, as a state assassin and a local dignitary, and his actions when he was a general in the army were naturally different! Zhao Yun in this world has always been a diligent and inquisitive person, and he has been quite good at this for more than two years!

In addition to being used as a performance between banquets, these singing and dancing girls also had a huge role in giving meritorious subordinates, which was also a common thing in the late Han Dynasty, and there were often gifts of handmaidens between wealthy families, and in some cases it was more effective than gold and silver! Liu Yi did this at the beginning of this life because of Guan Hai's sacrifice of his life, and he still has a natural resistance to such a gift, but just as he is constantly influencing this era, the latter is also assimilating him, and this move is just a social etiquette with the characteristics of the times!

However, the officials at today's banquet did not think anything about these beautiful and slender women in front of them, not because they were not attractive enough, but because King Yan mentioned from time to time what he had seen and heard since his southern tour, and many of them were related to the officials present, and even more directly their close relatives! Liu Yiweifu's inspection of what he saw was by no means able to make him gradually satisfied, in the process of rapid development of the states under his rule, many problems have also been highlighted, the prosperity of business has made the power and money transactions above the officialdom have emerged, and the families of some political officials have also begun to use the advantages of their status to seek more benefits, and there are many more!

In Liu Yi's heart, he is prepared for this, and he is just observing carefully on the road, as long as it is not too much to the point of anger and resentment, he is not willing to take action personally, it is true that dealing with these things with his dignity as the king of Yan is just a trivial matter, but this is by no means the way to cure the root cause, the high power means that the responsibilities are heavy, he can deal with one or even ten cases today, but he can't always pile piles and piles to solve through his patrol, there is only one real way to cure the root cause, and formulate effective laws and punishments for it, This is the long-term solution!

Of course, the need to maintain internal stability in the imminent war is the reason why Lang Sheng forbears those illegal acts, and now Liu Yi has become the de facto supreme power holder in the states of Youzhou, and his every move will become the weather vane raised by the government, and he must not delay the overall situation for the sake of temporary pleasure, after all, the current battle for dominance is his biggest goal! As the patriarch of the Liu clan of the Shangdang clan, he will not cause panic in the entire scholar clan no matter how he handles this matter, as long as he can restrain it a little, the purpose of this move will be achieved, and the interests of the people must be safeguarded, but these scholars can not be ignored, they are Liu Yi's extremely important ruling foundation, the so-called "think twice", for the superiors, they need to remember the essence, and the impact of his behavior is comprehensive.

In addition, the gangs above the officialdom also have a lot of clues, in general, the officials under Liu Yi can be roughly divided into two factions, one is to follow the normal path of filial piety, and the other is to be sent to various places to hold important positions through Youzhou Academy, the former is of course the mainstream of the current officialdom, but the latter has gradually had the strength to compete with it, compared to the former they are younger, and they also have more modern ideas, which will be embodied in their administrative methods, Naturally, there are more divisions of power under the roughly divided two factions!

In this regard, Liu Yi's temporary plan is not to easily show an attitude of supporting any party on the premise of maintaining the stability of the general direction, to put it bluntly, it is to make peace with the mud! But these three words are the way of the emperor to the letter! The wise monarch will not be afraid of his subordinates fighting each other, but afraid of them being ironclad, if this is the case, the ministers will have the strength to compete with it, sometimes pull this faction to fight that faction, and sometimes do the opposite, which can be seen everywhere in the history of China, in the emperor, the courtiers do not fight his country is difficult to sit firm, the so-called and thin mud its core idea is the way of balance, the ultimate winner of the courtiers fighting will only be the king!

Could it be that Emperor Qianlong, a corrupt official like He Shen, really didn't know anything about it? Why is it that the struggle between the DPRK and China in each dynasty is always called a constant theme? Putting aside the distinction between loyalty and treachery, all of this is what the emperor is taking advantage of behind the scenes, the more powerful you fight, the greater my room for maneuver, but there must also be a degree of control in this, whether you can control this degree well is the standard of the faint monarch and the king, and one point is that the general direction must be able to grasp!

Among them, the prestige and deterrence of the emperor itself will play a great role, look at the history of China for thousands of years, you will find that the Ming monarch is generally the emperor of several dynasties after the founding of the country, or can suppress it after the chaos in the court! And today's Liu Yi is not yet the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, but his prestige and deterrence are no different from the Son of Heaven to the ministers, in his heart, the Youzhou Academy School has inherited his thoughts and ambitions, and it will definitely be reused in the future, but now he can only continue to use the way of balance, and dominating the world is the biggest direction!

Such a faction not only appears in the officialdom, but also in the army, except for Gan Ning and Zhao Yun for the time being, the biggest division is the first to follow Liu Yi to raise troops and the generals who came one after another in the future, the former should be represented by Xu Huang Zhang Hetai Shici, and the latter among Zhang Liao Gaoshun Hebei Shuangxiong have a very important position, there is a more detailed division among the generals, such as Yan Gang Shan Jing is the general of Gongsun, Zhang Liao Gaoshun is under Lu Bu, and now the generals under the original Yuan Shao are also in a high position in the Yan army, This creates all kinds of hills!

It's not that there is no open and secret struggle between the various forces, but under the deterrence of Liu Yi's super might, such a battle has never been able to affect the overall situation, the prestige of the Yan King in the Yan army can be described as supreme, and the object of the soldiers' allegiance is always only one person, as long as Liu Yi is there, the Yan army is a monolith, and it can sweep the world! In the same way, if Lang Sheng is not there, these internal struggles are likely to surface to sleep, and the civil strife in the army can affect the ruling foundation more than the dynasty, no matter which dynasty in China, there is almost no phenomenon that martial arts are not as good as literature, which shows that the emperor's understanding of this is extremely profound in his heart, and the army of the children of the Liu family is also Lang Sheng's preparation for a rainy day!

How to embody this balance in the emperor's mind, one of the biggest ways is to pretend to be confused! With the monitoring of Tian'er, even if Liu Yi does not personally patrol many places, the situation can still be grasped in detail, but as long as it does not cause too much harm to his plans, Lang Sheng will never make a big move, and now the states of Youzhou have formed a set of effective governance system, which plays a huge role in the unity and stability of the interior. Your own stability is the way of king!

In the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao was strong, and many officials under Cao Cao did not secretly communicate with him, and the form was reversed, and the male of Hebei was finally defeated by the traitor in the troubled times, and those documents that collaborated with the enemy fell into the hands of Cao Cao. Actually burned it all, this is the king's bearing, he can understand the hardships of his subordinates, in such a situation where the enemy is strong and I am weak, everyone will naturally have the idea of self-preservation!

In this world, Liu Yi is basically the same as Cao Cao in employing people, they both allow their subordinates to have all kinds of flaws, and they must use their talents! However, Cao Mengde's several orders to seek merit, although he got a lot of talents, but because of this, he also received the resistance of the scholars, and later Cao Pi used Chen Qun's Nine Grades of Zhongzheng Method to eliminate such an influence for his father! Cao Mengde's move can be described as daring to be the first in the world, and it is the bearing of a great hero, but Liu Yi would be stupid if he didn't learn his lesson, and his methods were also very simple, and muddy! Lang Sheng will not open the sect to do any merit-seeking order, but the secret method is not much different from it, and the real essence is in this secret word!

A banquet is a banquet, Liu Yi rarely mentions the way of military and political affairs on such an occasion, he is just sharing his experience of the southern tour with a group of ministers in a relaxed tone, of course, this is the intention of the speaker, the listener is intentional, in these experiences he will add his own views lightly, the purpose is very simple, it is okay to be tolerant, and it is okay to pretend to be confused, but these things are clear in the lonely heart, otherwise it is really confused! As for how to do it after hearing about it, you can do it at your own discretion, even if the sea is inclusive, there is a limit, if you are really too lonely and merciless to your own family, what about others? This can be regarded as a tacit understanding between superiors and subordinates!

Not to mention that the banquet Yan Wang is intentional, even if he has no intention of doing it, the ministers will spend their minds to think about it, this method of figuring out the intention is the only way for Huaxia to be an official, now the intention of the Yan King has been extremely obvious, in addition to a small number of officials here will also be more or less implicated with it, presumably the first thing when he returns to the mansion after today's banquet will be to warn his family not to go too far, and will be more cautious for a long time! In such a mood, how many people can enjoy the song and dance in front of them with a relaxed attitude?
