"Qin has the world, split the capital and for the county, abolish the Hou Wei and guard it, according to the world's heroic map, the upstream of the Liuhe, shoot the four seas, and transport it within the control,......。 In a few years, the world is bad,......, blame is on people's grievances, and the system of non-county towns is also lost. This is a paragraph in the "Treatise on Feudalism" written by Liu Zongyuan, a famous scholar of the Tang Dynasty, which praised the county system created during the Warring States Period, pointed out the advantages of the county system, and pointed out that the replacement of the feudal system by the county system is the general trend of the world, irreversible, and drew an end to the dispute between the county system and the feudal system that lasted for thousands of years.

The county system was created in the Spring and Autumn Period, developed in the Warring States Period, and completed in the Qin Dynasty. At the end of the Warring States Period, under the implementation and propaganda of the Legalists, all the candidates in the world implemented the county system in the country. Under the county system, the county guards and county orders are directly appointed and dismissed by the central government, and these people must be people trusted by the monarch, and their existence effectively strengthens the centralization of power, strengthens the central government's management of the localities, prevents local separatism, division and counterjudgment, and maintains the stability of territory and taxation.

However, few people know that among the Seven Kingdoms, the Qi State has almost stubbornly never implemented the county system, which is very special. Qi's local administrative system was biased towards decentralization and adopted the system of five capitals. "Zuo Biography" contains: "There is a temple in Fanyi, and the lord of the ancestor is called the capital, but there is no Yi. According to this reason, each country should only have one capital, which is the center of national politics, economy, military and culture, but Qi has four other capitals parallel to the national capital in addition to Linzi, it is obvious that Linzi is not the only one, and the local administrative power belongs to the administrative groups of the five capitals, and is not entirely concentrated in the hands of the Linzi government; What is even worse is that not only is the administrative power decentralized, but the military power is also not centralized. History: The "soldiers of the five capitals" are all soldiers, and there are soldiers in the five capitals, which shows that the military power is also scattered, which is a clear proof. The system of the five capitals originated from the five-subordinate system of Guan Zhong in the Spring and Autumn Period, due to the vast territory of the Qi State and the extremely low productivity (how low was it at that time?). I'll give you an example: at that time, the state of Chu was almost the entire Yangtze River basin, as the king of such a large place, the king of Chu only had less than ten good arrows, so there was a group of people who were always in the limelight in the armies of various countries at that time, they were marksmen, and the protagonist of the idiom Yang was one of them), Guan Zhong divided the country into five genera, and each subordinate set up a doctor to govern autocracy, and reported to the country in the first month of each year. The doctor has considerable power, equivalent to the king of each capital and its dependencies, holding the power of life and death, and leading the army. No one knows why there are so many talents in the Qi State, and there have been several Ming monarchs, but they have continued the tradition until now.

The society of the Warring States period was roughly similar to that of later generations, and if you wanted to enter the upper class of society and become the elite of society, you had to first become famous, so that you could be discovered by the upper class, and under their leadership, you would successfully enter the elite recognized by the upper class and become an elite that influenced history. Zhao Jie is the grandson of King Zhao, and naturally he is an upper-class person, which is his innate advantage, but it has also become an obstacle for him to become a member of the social elite. According to Zhao Jie's plan, fame is the only place on his way to the elite, and it is also what he needs to pursue at the moment.

So, 'What does it take for a person to become famous?' This is a problem that has been there since time immemorial.

Tang Luo Yin laughed at himself in a letter to his lover Zhongling prostitute Yunying: "I am not famous and unmarried, and I may not be as good as others." As he said, it is impossible to become famous if you are "not as good as people". On the contrary, there is a foundation for fame with excellence. In thousands of years of human history, many people have become famous, but they have all chosen to take different paths.

Some people have chosen the path of money, such as Wang Yuanbao in the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty in China, Shen Wansan in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, and Rockfeller, the kerosene king in the modern era of the United States. Their fame is nothing but earned by wealth; Some people have chosen the path of learning: Confucius, Mencius, Newton, Socrates, and Einstein are all famous for their scholarly writings. The cold window has not been known for ten years, and the title of the imperial examination is known to the world. imperial examinations, a means created by the Chinese to make learned people famous; Some people have chosen the path of power, such as Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Hitra and others in history, who have taken this path and become famous for a while! There are many more such paths, and I will not list them all.

When a person has something extraordinary, will he definitely become famous?

Obviously, the answer is no. On July 27, 1890, Vincent Wilhelm van Gogh, a representative painter of Dutch post-impressionism, relapsed from his old illness and shot himself. After Van Gogh's death, his paintings were repeatedly sold for high prices, which shows that Van Gogh's painting skills are naturally outstanding, but his life of obscurity and poverty has to make us think of another condition for a person to become famous - Bole who discovers his excellence.

In addition to their own merits and Bole, propagandists are also indispensable. In ancient times, the population flow movement was not large, and people's fame could only rely on businessmen and officials from all over the world to publicize, which made people often only famous in one place, and the fame could not spread for long, and in modern society, everyone was a potential propagandist, which made some people famous for a long time and all over the world.

Based on the above analysis, a formula can be roughly derived: fame is equal to the cube of the outstanding place multiplied by the square of Bole multiplied by the promoter.

Theoretically, for Zhao Jie, if he wants to become famous, now is the best time. After a few months of study in the Jixia Academy, Zhao Jie has already had an outstanding trend in scholarship and insight, and the existence of the Jixia Academy, as an academic institution and a government advisory body, gave Zhao Jie a platform for Bole (such as the famous man in the opposition, the minister of the DPRK and China), and the prosperous cultural exchanges, academic seminars and commercial civilization of the Qi Kingdom gave Zhao Jie a rich propagandist. Zhao Jie's heart of fame, which had calmed down for a long time, began to become active.

The wild geese fly south, the fallen leaves return to the roots, and the bleak autumn wind blows away the warmth and coldness. At dusk, Zhao Jie walked out of the Jixia School Palace with a few rolls of bamboo slips in his arms, and walked in the direction of his temporary home. After walking for two or three miles, turning into an alley, Zhao Jie walked into a private house, where he and Xu Yang lived temporarily.

"Brother Jie, you're back, I'll go and let the uncle and aunt prepare dinner, you can rest for a while." Xingyi, who was cleaning the room, saw Zhao Jie only say a word and ran away.

The unremarkable, step-by-step life made Zhao Jie a little crazy. There were only Zhao Jie and Xingyi at the dinner table, and the surroundings were so quiet that even the sound of people swallowing rice could be heard. Zhao Jie broke the silence and asked, "Where did Xu Yang go, why hasn't this kid come back yet?" ”

"Young Master Xu's guards have just come back to inform that Young Master Xu is not coming back for dinner." Xingyi replied.

"Sister Yi, after eating, you tell the guard, let him go and tell Xu Yang: Come to my room when you come back."

"Got it. I'll do it right away. ”

It was late at night, and when Zhao Jie finished reading all the bamboo slips and was about to fall asleep, a hurried knock on the door sounded, breaking the silence of the night. Zhao Jie walked out of the room and came to the door, he pulled the bolt of the door, slowly opened the door, and saw a drunkard rolling in through the crack in the door.

Zhao Jie clamped Xu Yang's arms tightly, and took great effort to hold Xu Yang into his room. "Squeak", another door opened, Xingyi walked out of the room, she looked around, and found that Zhao Jie's room was still brightly lit. "His Royal Highness Jie is really too hard, always staying up late like this will exhaust your body. Before leaving, the crown princess told me to take care of His Highness, so I had better persuade His Highness now. Xingyi thought. She slowly walked to Zhao Jie's room, knocked lightly on the door, and called softly, "Brother Jie, Brother Jie." ”

Xu Yang's room was next door to Zhao Jie's room, and he was already tired and out of breath at this time

Zhao Jie was sitting on the ground resting, and when he heard the sound of the star instrument, it was like seeing a savior, and his tired body suddenly became strong again.

"I, I, I, in, in, in, here, here, here" Zhao Jie walked to the door, looked out, and gasped: "Xu Yang, this kid is drunk, Xingyi, come and help me move him to the bed"

Xingyi hurriedly walked into the room and walked to the table, she poured a cup of tea and wanted to give it to Zhao Jie to drink, and then just as he walked towards Zhao Jie with the tea, an accident happened, Xu Yang, who was lying on the ground and didn't know anything, turned over, and happened to stump over Xingyi, Xingyi stumbled, the teacup was detached from his hand, and all the water in the teacup was sprinkled on Xu Yang, and the teacup was also broken after touching the ground. And Xingyi himself fell to the place where Zhao Jie was. "Ahh The fallen Xingyi easily knocked Zhao Jie down, and in an instant, the fallen Zhao Jie and Xingyi faced each other, fortunately Zhao Jie's eyes were quick and he blocked his mouth with his hand, otherwise he almost lost his first kiss. The fallen Zhao Jie pushed Xingyi away from his body, and Xingyi, who felt Zhao Jie's movements, also opened his eyes, and at this moment, there was an ambiguous atmosphere in the air.

Shaking his head and shaking the cranky thoughts out of his mind, Zhao Jie and Xingyi worked together to move Xu Yang to the bed, covered him with a quilt, turned off the lights and closed the door, and then the two of them left Xu Yang's room as if they were fleeing, and returned to their rooms without saying a word.
