Chapter 0200: The Way of Knowing People
After Li Shizhi recited the poem by Li Ang, he said, "The talent of the day is quick, and he is really the talent of Jinshi!" In this case, you can understand it as a promise in disguise, but it can also be said to be a casual compliment.
Of course, it is also possible that Li Shizhi is testing him.
As for why he is a talent of a jinshi instead of a champion, it may be that the competition is too fierce, or Li Shizhi feels that although Li Ang saved himself once, he still knows little about him, so he only promised a jinshi in disguise.
There are all kinds of possibilities, and Li Ang can't ask about it, otherwise it will be too ugly.
The two of them feasted and drank in the hall, the snowflakes were flying outside the hall, and there were bursts of drums in the distance, this is the door of each square is about to be closed, Li Shizhi has asked Li Ang to stay in the prime minister's mansion tonight in advance, and Li Ang is not in a hurry.
Li Shizhi, who was already a little drunk, suddenly pushed his cup and sighed: "The old man is in the phase, and he must have the ability to know people, but how difficult it is to know people!" ”
Li Ang didn't know why he suddenly sighed, but he said that he was testing himself again, and he asked cautiously: "Li Xianggong is a good ruler, a discerning person, and the people he uses are all virtuous people, why do you sigh like this?" ”
Li Shizhi stroked his long beard and said slowly: "People's hearts are unpredictable. At present, there is an example, Yang Shenjin, a counselor and secretary of the Taifu, has always been an upright, deep and resolute, and talented. But he didn't want to, but now he is also in the same stream with Li Linfu, and has taken the position of the Taishou of Shaanxi County and the envoy of land and water transportation, Wei Jian. People's hearts are like water, unpredictable! ”
After Li Shizhi finished speaking, he sat down with a blank expression. At this point, Leon finally determined that he was testing himself. As the prime minister of a country, it is inevitable that there will be a suspicion of being shallow and deep with a man, even if Li Ang has just saved him. But this is still a bit abrupt.
Li Ang said: "The DPRK is fortunate to have Li Xianggong, you have the power to refute the seal, so that you can correct the lawlessness." ”
His words were very measured, praising Li Shizhi's role, but did not clearly point out who the outlaw was, so his words were in line with his identity as a lifter.
Of course, Li Ang will not completely fall to Li Shizhi. Although he had never met Li Linfu, he had heard many of Li Linfu's deeds. Li Shizhi's temptation is not very clever, and from this alone, it can be seen that he is far behind Li Linfu in terms of political struggle.
If you're not afraid of enemies like tigers, you're afraid of teammates like pigs!
Although Li Shizhi is much smarter than a pig, he is tied to Li Shizhi's death in the face of Li Linfu, who is like an old fox. It is certain that a curse is not a blessing.
Li Ang didn't want to talk about such a topic, so after saluting Li Shiyi, he took the opportunity to divert the topic from the government and politics: "Li Xianggong, in the face of knowing people, students have a few superficial opinions, I don't know whether it is right or wrong, and I ask Li Xianggong to correct it." ”
Recognize and employ people. It's always been a big problem;
How many emperors let traitors be in charge because they don't know people. The country's politics are corrupted, and even the disaster of the country's demise.
How many prime ministers also appoint mediocre and lawless people because they don't know people, and even harm others and themselves.
There are too many such examples, such as Qi Huangong, one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period. In the end, because he didn't know anyone, he ended up starving to death in the deep palace. There are not a few prime ministers who have been killed by those they have promoted.
It can be seen that how to recognize people is a very profound knowledge.
Li Ang, who has not been weak at a young age, dares to say that he has some "shallow views" in terms of knowing people. couldn't help but arouse Li Shizhi's strong interest, and he immediately said: "Rizhi has insight, please come quickly." ”
Li Ang sorted out his thoughts a little and said: "Students think that if they want to identify the available talents, they can start from eight aspects. Specifically, it is to ask some difficult questions, test his understanding level, and his ability to solve them. ”
"Second, we should be poor and see what happens. It is to ask him to answer many questions within a certain period of time and test his adaptability. ”
After only listening to two of them, Li Shizhi's drunkenness woke up, he sat up straight and listened carefully.
Li Ang continued: "This third, with it, is to see its sincerity. That is, deliberately alienating him, and then indirectly collecting his words and deeds to see if he changed his loyalty because he was alienated. ”
"Fourth, be clear and ask questions to see their virtues. That is, to talk frankly with him on some important issues and to examine his virtues. ”
"Fifth, let them be judged by their wealth and their incorruptibility. That is, let him manage his money, give him a so-called fat shortage, and see if he can remain incorruptible. ”
"Sixth, try it to see its chastity. Seduce with beauty and examine their integrity. How many heroes in the world have fallen in front of beauty, and the beauty trick is one of Sun Tzu's 36 tactics in the Art of War, which is commonly used by the world, because this one is quite important. ”
"Seventh, inform the difficulty, to see its bravery. That is, to clearly tell him about the situation in danger and to examine whether he is brave or not. ”
"Eighth, get drunk with wine, and observe its state. Drunk it and examine its words and deeds. Many people are fine in normal times, but once they get drunk, they will do bad things, so they have to be prevented. ”
After listening to Li Ang's eight strategies, Li Shizhi was silent for a long time, and Li Ang thought that he was indifferent, but after a while, Li Shizhi suddenly hit the case and praised loudly: "If you can pass these eight tests, you are really extraordinary." It is really a great talent to think of such a way to recognize people! ”
Talented? How big is it, why don't you say it's the top talent? Really!
Li Shizhi didn't know that Li Ang was slandering him, and he was already thinking in his heart, looking for an opportunity to show off to the emperor with Li Ang's eight strategies.
He was so happy today! Not only to get rid of a catastrophe, but also to hear such a wonderful discourse.
Li Ang knows people and has eight strategies, and when they are separated, each one is not necessarily amazing;
But what is commendable is that he has done everything to test a person from eight aspects in an all-round way. As long as they pass the test, such a person will be up to the task, and it will be reassuring.
Li Ang then gave Li Shizhi a sycophant: "Li Xianggong drinks and fights without chaos, feasts at night, and decides official duties during the day, leaving nothing in the court." Isn't it that he is drunk but not chaotic, shrewd and capable, and Li Xianggong is the prime minister, and he deserves his name! ”
"Hahaha...... How fortunate the old man is to meet such a good talent today. Come! Please drink this cup to the fullest of the day! Li Shizhi is a straightforward person, and it is not surprising that he is happy to raise a glass and invite him to drink enthusiastically, regardless of the huge difference in the identities of the two.
Li Ang is also not polite, the prime minister's wine and food are not something that anyone can eat if they want to. Well, aren't you all called wine fairies? Starting today, let you see what the real amount of alcohol is, Li Jin was drunk and lay down, Li Shizhi, you don't want to stand and go back to the room.
While drinking with Li Shizhi, Li Ang was looking forward to tonight, as a guest of the Prime Minister's Mansion, would Li Shizhi let the beautiful concubine sleep? If Li Shizhi really lets the beauty sleep, will he be on or not?
What if Li Shizhi learns and uses it, tries it, and looks at his chastity?
Li Ang looked at the graceful musicians in the hall, and his heart was secretly entangled.........
