……

As far as Zhao Wuxian knows, Taoists are naturally anti-war, and the later Huang Lao School has taken this idea to the extreme, and all wars are evil in their eyes!

The root cause is Lao Tzu himself, he was born in troubled times, heard of horse chaos, witnessed a war shortage, and was extremely disgusted with war, so he was good at killing all his life, and opposed the king to repeatedly provoke wars.

It's a pity that as a small official in the Tibetan room, the prince's dynasty, which was once regarded as the choice of the Ming monarch, also lost in the battle for the throne, and Lao Tzu could not control the situation after all. However, he started from the "Tao", deduced the personality of "weakness" and "indisputability", and the anti-war ideology led by "weakness" and "indisputability", and set off ripples of the enduring humanistic spirit in the world, and Ren Zhang is one of these ripples.

What Ren Zhang said in the song is nothing more than Lao Tzu's set, but he also added some things of his own.

He took pity on the country's wealth and people's strength, and bitterly told Zhao Wuxian about the scourge of war: "Where the division is, thorns are born." After the great army, there will be a fierce year. ”

He opposed the recklessness of the army, despised the sharp blade of murder weapons, denounced the act of conquering cities and lands, and cursed the destruction of living beings: "Those who kill people will not be able to achieve the world's will." ”

He cherished a peaceful life and admonished Zhao Wuxian to rest the soldiers: "The ministers heard that there was a way in the world, but they went to the horse with dung, there was no way in the world, and the horse was born in the suburbs." There is no greater misfortune than not being satisfied; There is no greater blame than desire. ”

In a word, it is to ask Zhao Wuxian to rest the army, not to fight every year, and to spend more energy on improving people's livelihood, and the manufacture of siege weapons is almost done. After that, Ren Zhang clarified his own philosophy.

"Those who are masters of the Tao are not strong ...... the world"

"With the Tao of the royal soldiers, can the master of the people reach the royal road?" Zhao Wuxian shook his head helplessly, after reading Lu Ban's incomparably detailed note, and then looking at Ren Zhang's part, he felt that it was full of vain words, and he was a little lacking in interest.

Ren Zhang's idea is good, he feels that the territory of the Zhao clan is vast enough, and the people are enough, instead of blindly mobilizing troops abroad, it is better to develop the wilderness and raise the people, why bother with other countries and let the people bleed? He offered a plan to let Han Zheng fight for Cheng Gao, but he did not mean that the surrounding neighbors of the Zhao family were busy with the war, and the Zhao family was at peace.

However, in the era of great controversy, the nations will retreat if they do not advance, and the Taoist anti-war proposition is a bit inappropriate. Taoism was originally a small country and a small country, and the set of local autonomy was at odds with Zhao Wuxian's efforts to turn his family into a country and create a **** centralized power.

With the establishment of seven counties and one capital, the internal official reform is nearing completion, and the implementation of the equalization and loss level, the Zhao family has completed the centralization of power politically and economically. Next, it only needs to stabilize the countries under the hegemonic order of the Zhao clan again, let the Jin and Lu embark on the process of integration, and then start the war of mixing the Central Plains.

Under such circumstances, it was too late for Zhao Wuxian to expand the army, so how could he obey Ren Zhang's set and engage in "boycotting" and "not fighting"?

It makes sense to think that the Huang Lao School could only wither in the early Han Dynasty, and the world was in urgent need of peace, and it would be eliminated by history later.

Because any king who is eloquent and wants to make a difference will not take Huang Lao as a national policy.

What Zhao Wuxian needed was something that would help him achieve his goals.

For example, respecting the king, such as the homology of Kyushu, such as the divine right of the monarch, such as the spirit of the law, such as the long-term must be combined......

Therefore, he is eclectic in employing people, and he will selectively use the various theories of the time: Wu, Shi, Confucianism, Mingfa, Gongchuan, Guanzi, Taoism, and even Qi Warlocks, as long as there are schools that can benefit these strategies.

But Ren Zhang's incident made him a little vigilant, because the Zhao family was comfortable and happy, and there were not a few people who began to be negative about the war. Fortunately, most of the nobles and doctors wanted to gain glory, and the lower classes of soldiers and commoners wanted to get wealth and land, and as long as the degree and quantity of rewards were controlled, the desires of these people could never be satisfied, and the call for war would never be exhausted.

Of course, in fact, the method of acquiring land abroad and subverting the regimes of other countries is not just war. If the matter can be solved by power and diplomacy, Zhao Wuxian will not use force.

After the spring of next year, it is just time to try the effect of scheming and cutting diplomatic relations in the country.

After thinking about it, he wrote a word of encouragement on the note, letting Ren Zhang know that the monarch had absorbed his opinion and would consider it, and you should make persistent efforts in the future and continue to maintain the advice. But in fact, Zhao Wuxian will transfer him away from the center, away from the decision-making circle, go to the local government to secure the people and wealth, and rule by doing nothing......

Ren Zhang still didn't integrate it, he forgot that Lao Tzu's study not only has anti-war, but also Taoism, potential, and art.

Cultivate the Tao with potential, and seek momentum with skill. There is no way, the way is empty, there is no way, and there is no way, and its trust is also sudden.

Although Zhao Wuxian threw aside Ren Zhang's anti-war request, his teacher Gu Bu Ziqing's "Renjun Southern Technique" could be studied well, and for Zhao Wuxian, this was the most valuable thing in Taoism!

……

Throwing Ren Zhang's recital aside, the lamp and candle on the desk went down again, and the maid in the palace costume who had already begun to doze off hurriedly came over to add oil and replace it, Zhao Wuxian fiddled with them, and he himself sniffed the awakening incense configured by Le Lingzi, closed his eyes and recuperated.

I heard that Qin Shi Huang had to review 120 catties of music every day, because it was written in bamboo slips, so it was about 20 to 300,000 words, and the reading volume was already extremely terrifying.

Zhao Wuxian calculated, he had to approve about sixty or seventy thousand words a day, which was far worse than Qin Shi Huang, and because the county chapters were uniformly made of light bamboo paper, reading and reviewing was no longer a manual job. However, as the territory of the Zhao clan became more and more extensive, the bureaucracy increased day by day, and the daily affairs that Zhao Wuxian had to deal with also began to increase, and he had to be busy until night.

It's not a way to work so hard every day.

Based on his years of experience, Zhao Wuxian combined with Gubu Ziqing's technique of Renjun Nanmian, he knew that "those who are good at being the monarch work hard to judge people, and are easy to govern things". He is self-aware, and as a monarch, he does not need to be close to everything, but to be good at appointing subordinates to share tasks for himself.

"It seems that it is time to recruit a few more close ministers and scribes who will screen the documents for me......"

As Xiang Lu went to supervise the imperial history, there was a vacancy in the close ministers around Zhao Wuxian, and he had also considered using Ren Zhang, but Ren Zhang had already offended the powerful main battle faction within the Zhao clan and could not be introduced as a close minister...... This person's personality is quite similar to the Taoist Ji Di of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. In addition, his thoughts did not match the Zhao family's national policy, so Zhao Wuxian had quietly crossed it out in his heart.

So he could only consider new candidates, a total of three people were needed, and Zhao Wuxian had already thought about it, a doctor's son, a scholar, and a Li Shu, so that all classes had nothing to say.

The quota of the remaining two has been set, and there is only one left, Zhao Wuxian thought that it was best to have a background in Linzhang School Palace, and he was smart and studious. Because these close servants and secretaries brought with him are also a shortcut for Zhuo Ba to be an important minister of the Zhao family, his choice is to let the scholars in the Linzhang School Palace see hope, after all, when they entered the school palace, they all signed a "deed of sale" with the Zhao family......

In fact, the school palace festival Jiu Changhong has already handed over a few candidates, and he pressed it under the song, just a small note, writing the names and characters of the three candidates.

Zhao Wuxian only glanced at it, and his eyes were attracted by one of them.

"Bu Shang, the word Zixia?"
