In addition to Xu Jie's identity, in addition to the initial shock, the only feeling of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, was joy, after all, this was a great talent who was not inferior to anyone in the world.

Today's Chu State is short of people, and having such a peerless talent join is undoubtedly extremely huge in terms of impact on Chu State.

After a long time, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, suppressed the surprise in his heart, looked at Xu Jie, who was close at hand, and a touch of impulse surged in his heart.

He didn't expect that he would have such amazing power if he randomly issued an order to seek talents.

Originally, he didn't have much hope for this meritocracy order, but he didn't expect that this meritocracy order would give him such a big surprise.

The thought flickered in his heart, and Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, looked at Xu Jie and said, "Xu Aiqing, Gu looked at your answer and found that the feasibility of a whip law was discussed on it, how likely is it to implement a law change in the Chu State in your opinion?" ”

The two of them went around and around, and finally got to the point, which was the reason why Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, really wanted to summon Xu Jie.

After all, this time he went south to Moling and met with the overlord of Chu, and the most fundamental reason was to implement the law change and let the Chu State grow stronger in the troubled times.

Hearing this, Xu Jie was shocked, and the whole person became dignified at this moment, he knew in his heart that in this troubled era, the minister chooses the king, and the king chooses the minister.

At this moment, it is time for him to show what he has learned in his chest, and naturally, Xu Jie will not be polite, because this time is not the time for him to be polite.

"Prince, the eight-year struggle for hegemony between Chu and Han has exhausted the war potential of Chu, and if you want to rise in this turbulent and troubled era, you must learn from the pain and thoroughly implement the reform."

Speaking of this, Xu Jie turned his eyes, looked at Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, and said: "Since the annexation of Wu in the late Spring and Autumn Period, the land of Chu has been 5,000 miles wide, the people are nearly 10 million, the Jianghuai water network is like weaving, and the lakes are dotted with mountains and dense forests. ”

"However, the plains are fertile and easy to cultivate, with mountains and rivers and deep territory, and no one who is a strong country can swallow it in one gulp."

"If the upper echelons of the Chu State have a high-level instrument bureau, change the law to become strong, and enter the Central Plains in the north, why worry about not being able to complete the unification and hegemony, and the Chu State can stick to the bad habits of barbarism and rarely absorb the essence of the Central Plains civilization."

"The official system, the military system and the civil rule are all their own sets, the prime minister is called Ling Yin, the doctor is called Zuo Yin, and the minister of royal affairs is called Mo Ao."

"This vassal state, which was self-reliant by mountain tribes and then recognized by the Zhou Dynasty, has many places that are difficult for the Central Plains civilization to understand, which is also where it is difficult for the Central Plains celebrities to make contributions in the Chu State."

……

Hearing this, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, changed his eyes slightly, and he knew in his heart that what Xu Jie said was not talking about the current Chu State.

However, it has a great relationship with the state of Chu, and after the destruction of the state of Qin, Western Chu completely denied the advanced system of the Great Qin Empire.

Even if he is the prince of Chu, Xiang Tian has to admit that the military system and official system of the Qin State are advanced, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, is simply turning back the clock of history.

At this moment, the state of Chu has too many similarities with the former state of Chu, and because the Qin Dynasty existed for too short, it did not have much influence on the land of Chu.

This led to the bad habits of the Chu State still existing!

Xiang Tian knew in his heart that except for himself and a series of people who followed him south, the old Chu Department did not have a big game of competition for survival in the world at all.

Since Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, went south to Chu, the biggest feeling was that the upper strata of Chu had an inferiority complex and unwilling to give in to the Central Plains civilization.

There is always a strong desire for the Central Plains civilization to recognize them and accept them, and at the same time, they always maintain a certain distance from the Central Plains civilization.

It is precisely because of this that there is a proverb of the Duke of Chu Nan, although Chu has three households, Qin will be Chu.

Because from beginning to end, the culture of the Chu State believes that they are not weak to the Central Plains civilization, and because of this, it is extremely difficult to get rid of the evils.

Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, had a torch in his eyes, and he knew in his heart that only by completely integrating into the Central Plains civilization could the Chu State survive forever, just like the Qin State, the Yuan Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty.

The Central Plains civilization has a long history, is broad and profound, and has great inclusiveness, which other civilizations do not have.

I think that at the beginning, in order to stabilize the world, Kangxi swept the mausoleum of Emperor Hongwu, and it was only in the Qing Dynasty that it was called Jiangshan for nearly 200 years.

The thought flickered in his heart, and Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, stared at Xu Jie and said, "What is Aiqing's best plan for this?" ”

Shaking his head, Xu Jie was very serious, and said: "Prince, it's not a secret, the Chu State actually lacks the soil and environment for changing the law. ”

"If the prince insists on changing the law, he must support it with all his might, and the gods and ghosts will block the way and kill him with a knife!"

……

"Hoo ......"

Exhaling deeply, Prince Xiang Tian of Chu frowned, and at this moment, he felt that he had taken this matter for granted.

The national conditions of Chu are too complicated, and if you want to change the law, you must fundamentally and thoroughly change the official system, the military system, and the rule of the people.

In this way, the resistance encountered will be huge, and it can even be said that it is the enemy of the entire Chu State.

The thought flickered in his heart, and Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, hesitated for a moment, but after a moment, this hesitation disappeared.

He knew in his heart that changing the law was to live, and to re-possess the war potential of the Chu State, which was the most important thing for the current Chu State.

Even if Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, opposes it, he will support it to the end, not to mention that he strongly supports this matter.

The thought flickered in his heart, and Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, looked at Xu Jie and said, "The matter of changing the law must be implemented, and no one can stop this matter." ”

"There is a person under the Gu command, after Shang Ying, named Shang Luo, and when he goes south to Moling, the matter of changing the law will be handed over to the two of you."

Feeling the resoluteness of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, Xu Jie's eyes also swelled with excitement, and what he learned naturally had to be displayed in order to appear in the world.

For him, this is an opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as long as the law change is implemented, he will have a pivotal position in the court of Chu.

Thinking of this, Xu Jie nodded and said, "Since the prince trusts the minister so much, the minister will live up to his trust and do his best." ”

"Hmm."

Nodding, Chu Prince Xiang Tian's thoughts flickered, he naturally knew that this time the implementation of the law change had a priority.

Only by thoroughly reforming the old customs of the Chu State, reforming the official system, the military system, and the rule of the people, so that the Chu State can be in line with the Central Plains civilization, so that a whip law can be implemented.

Only by doing so can the state of Chu rise in a short period of time and have the strength to compete with the Han state and the state of Qi for hegemony in the world.

For this, Prince Xiang Tian of Chu knows it well.
