Chapter 145: Guo Jia's Ascendancy
What is the prime minister, literally can manage anything, which shows the great power of the prime minister.
In Dahan, this prime minister actually seems to have a direct connection with the prime minister, at least in terms of authority. As a result, some people in private said that the drama of the Wenchen side is the leader, and the military generals are overturned.
Many people think that Xi Zhicai is an equal existence with Fang Yun, especially because of his great power, which makes many people hate the existence of grapes when they can't eat grapes, and that is envy, jealousy and hatred.
Over the years, there has been no shortage of gossip, and there have been a lot of slanders against Xi Zhicai in private. Xi Zhicai was unknowingly branded as a powerful minister, just like when he was going to learn from Wang Mang and directly usurp the throne.
Xi Zhi has a die-hard program, he naturally would not do such a thing, but Zhou Gong also has a fear of rumors, and he is just an ancient person, how can he ignore the gossip of those people?
He has been under Fang Yun since the middle of 184, and it has been ten years since then. In the past ten years, he has reached the pinnacle of power step by step, and as a humble man, he finally realized what it means to be cold in a high place.
The most important thing is that he clearly knows that he is only in the way of some people so far.
For those families, if they block it, they will block it, and he can't help but laugh in secret. But there is one person he cannot ignore. Because of his existence, this person directly covered his edge, and was willing to be a foil, he was Guo Jia.
Historically, after Xi Zhicai became an important adviser under Cao Cao, he died of infirmity within a few years. Before his death, when Cao Cao asked him who could replace him, he recommended a young man who was just twenty years old, and that was Guo Jia.
At the same time, he was born in a poor family, but his talent far surpassed him. The analysis of human nature and the control of people's hearts are simply at the peak, even if he is inferior. However, Guo Jia has been under Fang Yun for so many years, and almost all of them have been used as a foil for him. There is almost no excessive display of their edge and talent.
Because he knows that once he does this, then it is very likely that one day, Xi Zhicai will retire. It was up to him to take the throne. This is not a question of whether anyone wants to or not, Fang Yun has always been a ability supremacist, since Guo Jia's ability is above Xi Zhicai, then there is naturally nothing to dispute about his ascension.
This is not only very clear to Guo Jia, but also very clear to Xi Zhicai. That's why I feel that this is my debt to Guo Jia.
If there are other reasons, it may not be absent. The most taboo of ancient kings is the absolute minister, Xiao He has to use his self-stigmatization to ensure his life, it can be seen that in this era, the minister will face two extremes.
One is to say goodbye to the old man and return to his hometown, or learn from Xiao He's self-stigma festival to achieve a perfect ending; One is to rebel directly, or to empty the monarch's power. Turn the rumors into reality, because he has no choice.
For example, Sima Yi, a courtier in the later period of Cao Wei, finally embarked on the path of a powerful minister. Both of his brothers were first-class loyal ministers, and there was no reason for him to mutate. It can only be said that his ability is too much higher than that of his two brothers, and he controlled absolute military power at that time, and under the many rumors, he has no choice.
Until that time. It's almost not you who die or I die, and he doesn't want to get to that point. The key is that he has no possibility of betrayal, so he can only choose to discredit himself.
Strong in Gong Jing. Promising benefits in Fang Yun's name is completely an act of transgression. Even, even if Fang Yun denied this promise later, it would not be a problem, just because this itself was Xi Zhicai's personal behavior.
Immediately, after worshipping Tao Qian, he directly seized power by force during the mourning period of others. I have to say. Even those courtiers in Xuzhou didn't expect this, and it was precisely because of this that they were able to take power so smoothly.
The potter was obediently placed under house arrest; Zhen Rong was arrested on the spot and then ambushed; Que Xuan fled directly to Shouchun and took refuge with Yuan Shu; Zang Ba also obediently handed over the military power, and then came to Jinyang to receive short-term military training, of course, the focus is on ideological education, after the education is completed, qualified can naturally continue to be an officer, unqualified can be transferred to logistics, construction corps, engineer regiment, armed police or police system.
Cao Bao's military power was finally returned to him, but after at least a month of operation, the officers inside had been replaced and the initial integration had been completed. With these officers and political commissars here, Cao Bao knows how to choose unless he can't think about it; Mi Fang and Qin Yilu are almost the same arrangement, the difference is that Mi Fang has been transferred to the armed police system and no longer fights externally.
In the original time and space, Qin Yilu's wife Du Shi was an existence that Guan Yu and Cao Cao coveted. However, in this time and space, he naturally obediently became a subordinate under Fang Yun, so I was afraid that no matter how beautiful Du Shi was, it would be meaningless.
In the future, if he gives birth to another son, Qin Lang, there is no need to say what Qin Yilu's posthumous son is, it is definitely his seed 100%. This ending shouldn't be bad for him, but it's a pity that he is not a traverser and doesn't know these things.
In this way, under the handling of Xi Zhicai, Xuzhou quickly completed the transition of power. This period is very important, and there must not be any chaos, otherwise, it will definitely turn into a great civil strife with the help of people with good intentions, and then give the possibility of invasion by other princes.
It's just that no one would have thought that Xi Zhicai would suddenly attack during the mourning period, and if such a matter of disregard for Tao Qian's family's face spread, I am afraid that it will have more or less an impact on Fang Yun. Perhaps, now all the princes are ready to write a special book about Fang Yun's atrocities, and then discredit him, right?
As a party to Fang Yun, naturally he also needs to respond. In fact, smart people know that Xi Zhicai's handling method is the best and the safest, but the method is a bit rigid and unreasonable, and it may also discredit Fang Yun's face.
In this case, if you don't deal with Xi Zhicai, you can't say that you will do anything more excessive in the future. And if it is not punished, it will be difficult to explain to the people of the Tao family. Of course, Fang Yun doesn't need to explain anything to them, but Tao Qian is also the former Xuzhou Thorn History, he is now dead, and he returned the Thorn History Seal to the imperial court, but as soon as others let go, he took over Xuzhou with others, and he couldn't be so excessive, how could he convince the people below in the future?
Under public opinion. Obviously, Xi Zhicai had to be punished, so Fang Yun had to give an order to ask Xi Zhicai to come back. Yes, just please come back. He didn't intend to hurt the courtier.
In particular, he can absolutely guarantee that Xi Zhicai is loyal to him and has no flaws at all.
More than ten days later, Xi Zhi was escorted to Fang Yun. To respect his face and **. So Fang Yun waved away the others, he wanted to talk to this guy.
"I should have said that I want to be the prime minister and for how long, it's up to me to decide!" Fang Yun looked at the next drama Zhicai and said with a headache.
"My subordinates have been stealing from high positions for ten years, and in the long run, the people below can't see the hope of promotion, and they will inevitably have bad thoughts in their hearts. Regardless of whether things are likely to get to that point, the minister can only let the water flow. Only a court can be healthy.
In addition, the talent training mechanism has gradually been perfected, and a group of candidates graduate to take the civil service examination every year. If the officials of our court itself refuse to move their positions, then it is possible to cause most of the talents to flow to other princes, after all, who doesn't want to be in a high position?
The world is not the world of our generation, but the world of the Chinese people. Now that I am retiring, I can't say that I can still help the successor when he is not familiar with the business. If we wait until we die before we let the successor take the throne, then how can we guarantee it? Will they be able to adapt quickly to this new position? Every time there is a transfer of power, there will be a period of chaos, which will not benefit the court or the country! It's also very easy, and other princes can take advantage of it! Xi Zhicai finally said what he thought.
The Eastern Han Dynasty was not the only one with them. In fact, with the improvement of the education mechanism, a large number of talents are selected here every year. But if there are not enough positions for them, then the talents that these countries have spent their efforts to cultivate are very likely to go to other forces, and when the time comes, they will turn against themselves, which is not the result that Fang Yun hopes to see.
Decade. The replacement of officials should be completed in batches within a period of 10 years, and a retirement age should also be set. On the one hand, it will allow officials who have worked hard all their lives to go home and retire their lives, and on the other hand, it will also enable officials with more sober minds to quickly play a role in this post and speed up the construction of the country.
Of course, there is still a little selfishness, that is, Xi Zhicai hopes that Guo Jia's talent can be truly brought into play, not because of his existence, he can only be a foil.
He didn't have to say this, Fang Yun could actually guess it, so it was a bit of a pity.
Xi Zhicai is only nearly 40 years old this year, and he has at least 20 years of political career ahead of him. But one thing he said was very desirable, and that was that he stepped back now, at least to help him when he was needed.
Just like in the future, set up an advisory group for these important retirees, let them retire here, and let them use the experience they have summed up to help newcomers deal with more troublesome or complicated things.
Fang Yun didn't expect that what he hadn't thought of yet, Xi Zhicai gave priority.
Nowadays, with a perfect education system, a large number of talents appear every year, and the pattern of history has changed.
There is no need to live until you are old, the emperor will be mediocre when he is old, and even if the courtiers are old, they will not be as good as young people in handling things, which is worthy of affirmation......
"You're only forty years old, there's no way I'm going to give you a retirement! And if you do these rebellious things, I have no reason not to punish you! I plan to reopen the Western Regions Protectorate, you go to the Western Regions for me, I will arrange a force for you, when will the entire Western Regions be opened, the small countries that are not convinced will be destroyed, and the small countries that will be submitted will be incorporated into our country, so that you can retire! Fang Yun finally came to a conclusion.
"Whoa!" Xi Zhicai didn't expect that Fang Yun actually had the idea of reopening the Western Regions Protectorate, and he was suddenly a little excited. For this appointment, he naturally took it, thinking that even if he died in the Western Regions, he would complete this mission.
Not long after, Fang Yun announced the punishment of Xi Zhicai, demoted him to the Western Regions to form the Western Regions Protectorate, and removed him from the position of prime minister. As for the successor of the new prime minister, naturally, Guo Jialai will succeed him.
The rest of the official positions, according to the performance evaluation, should be promoted by one level.
In this way, everyone is happy! (To be continued.) )
PS: It is said that Xi Zhicai is only about forty years old this year, which is not old. But he has also served as prime minister for at least eight years, or about two terms...... In fact, I am also a little conflicted in this arrangement.
At the beginning, when it was considered to break the monopoly of the family, universal education was naturally needed, but in the case of universal education, a group of college students would graduate every year. If there are not enough positions, then they are likely to go to other forces, and such a situation is naturally not allowed. At the same time, is it really good to let those old Wen Chenwu continue to live in the court for a long time?
So it naturally involves the issue of retirement and pension, and even a series of problems, which really affect the whole body.
The Three Kingdoms is an era of emergent talents, especially after the education reform, and talents will continue to appear. Besides, Xi Zhicai is not without tasks, he is responsible for developing the Western Regions.
