On the way to the Imperial Garden, Qin Guan took the initiative to show favor and asked Li Chaoen: "Gonggong Li, it is the first time I have seen His Majesty alone, and I don't know what to pay attention to." ”

Li Chaoen looked at Qin Guan, who sincerely asked for advice, and admired his attitude very much, unlike some literati, who looked arrogant, and always spoke with three points of disdain when talking to eunuchs. Li Chaoen explained some of the taboos of the emperor to Qin Guan, and even revealed some of the emperor's likes and dislikes to prevent Qin Guan from colliding with the emperor.

Qin Guan took the opportunity to ask again: "I don't know if Your Majesty called me, what is the matter?" ”

Li Chaoen's old man has become a fine man, he has been fighting in the palace for half his life, and now he can become the emperor's most trusted eunuch, where do he not know that Qin Guan is playing his own words, but Li Chaoen also has a good impression of this polite and talented Qin Guan, and said with a smile: "The official family read your test paper, and I like your poem very much, and that poem is also very popular with the official. ”

Qin Guan understood now.

hurriedly thanked: "Thank you Gonggong Li, this kindness Qin Guan will not forget." ”

Li Chaoen smiled, "One sentence thing, how can there be any kindness, the things in the court are not clear, but the miscellaneous family remembers one sentence, no matter Zhang Wang Li Zhao, this world is controlled by the officials." ”

This sentence made Qin Guan Daigo empowered.

What Zeng Yu Shen Zheng, this world belongs to the emperor, and it is not as direct as relying on the emperor to whom he depends.

If you want to hug your thighs, the emperor is the thickest thigh in the world.

Qin Guan clasped his hands into fists and respectfully saluted Li Chaoen. It is rare for the Great Zhao Kingdom to kneel, unless it is between the master and the servant, even if the ministers see the emperor, they only bow down, which is already a great gift.

Qin Guan bowed down but was sincere, he didn't have any ill feelings towards eunuchs, there are more wonderful people than eunuchs in modern society, and the society has accepted them, so what is the eunuch.

If they are evil courts, hehe, if it weren't for the emperor's instructions, a group of eunuchs with no power and no power would be nothing, there are many eunuchs in history who are so powerful that they are in power and in the opposition, but as long as the emperor has a note, these people will be killed, and they don't even have the ability to resist.

Coming to the Imperial Garden, Qin Guan saw the emperor for the second time.

"Chen Qinguan, I have seen Your Majesty." Qin Guan saluted respectfully.

The emperor looked Qin Guan up and down, Qin Guan looks good, young but talented to learn, the emperor himself likes calligraphy and painting, and he likes poetry very much, Qin Guan's poems The emperor has also heard it, and appreciates it very much, and now when he sees Qin Guan, he can't help but have a heart of love for talent.

"I just wrote a picture, let's see how it goes." The Emperor said suddenly.

Qin Guan was very surprised, he felt that the emperor should ask him about the matter of strategy, how to come up and let himself see what calligraphy.

However, the emperor is the biggest, Qin Guan came to the bookcase, with a pair of words pressed on it, Qin was slightly surprised after watching it, it turned out to be his own Linjiang Immortal.

After reading it, Qin Guan organized the language in his heart and said: "Your Majesty's calligraphy, the pen is fluttering and fast, the handwriting is thin, and it is thin without losing its flesh, and the turning point can be clearly seen Zang Feng, Lu Feng and other traces of Teton have the subtlety of Huang Tingjian, Chu Suiliang and Xue Ji's calligraphy, and it has its own unique style, which is really the most beautiful calligraphy that Weichen has ever seen." ”

The emperor laughed, "You little guy, you look honest, but your mouth is very slippery." ”

Qin Guan replied with a smile: "Weichen is completely from the bottom of his heart. ”

The emperor said: "I like your poem very much, but you are young, how can you have such a desolate, tragic, peaceful and indifferent thought." ”

Qin Guan said: "Weichen has seen the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and he was also excited by the grandeur of the Three Kingdoms, but hundreds of years have passed, and now that I think back, everything has disappeared, and I can't help but sigh a little more in my heart." ”

The emperor nodded, he had been reading the history of the Three Kingdoms recently, and he had such an idea in his heart, but he couldn't write such an appropriate poem as Qin Guan, so he liked Qin Guan's Linjiang Immortal very much.

To put it simply, it hit the emperor's G-spot.

That's why he appreciates it so much.

The emperor said to Li Chaoen: "Sit." ”

Li Chaoen ordered the little eunuch to move a low stool, Qin Guan sat under the emperor, Li Chaoen has also been observing Qin Guan, and found that after this young man saw the emperor, although he was very respectful, he did not have the sincerity and fear of others when he saw the emperor, and even behaved inappropriately, but he was calm and responsive, respectful and not flattering, but there was a feeling that people were like a spring breeze, which made Li Chaoen feel that several prime ministers were meeting the emperor in person.

At this moment, Li Chaoen's attention to Qin Guan has increased a little, maybe this young man may really be able to stand at the peak of the court in the future.

As soon as Qin Guan sat down, the emperor asked: "I personally came up with that policy topic, but you only wrote eight words 'cultural strategy, economic war', what is the reason." ”

Qin Guan bowed and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that these eight words are enough to summarize my philosophy. ”

"As for Weichen not writing it specifically, it is because Weichen has a worry, that is, he is afraid that after I write this policy, it will be circulated, and if it is listened to by the spies of the Western Xia of Liao, then my country will have no effect if I want to implement this strategy."

When the emperor heard Qin Guan say this, he became interested, "Oh, it seems that you are very confident in your countermeasures, and you actually thought of the problem of leakage and implementation, so you can talk about it in detail." ”

Qin Guan knew that this was the emperor who was examining himself, and now it was a real palace exam, Qin Guan sorted out his thoughts and said: "As said in the topic of Your Majesty's policy, my Da Zhao is now surrounded by enemy countries, and he is slightly inferior in military strength, and the invasion of the border occasionally happens. ”

"The power invested in the army in our country is actually very large, and every year the imperial court has to take out forty percent of the tax burden to support the army, which makes the national finances overwhelmed."

"In Wechen's view, in today's situation, it is somewhat unrealistic to talk about strengthening armaments and increasing investment."

The emperor raised his eyes and looked at Qin Guan, but he didn't expect that such a young man did not stir up emotions and agitate the army like other young people, but could see that the imperial court was already overwhelmed, it seemed that Qin Guan was not as young as he seemed on the surface, and his thoughts were very mature.

Qin Guan continued: "And the current situation is that our country has also signed an agreement with the Liao State, Western Xia, and Tufan to non-aggression against each other, although they have not done well, but there has been no large-scale war for more than ten years, which is a good thing for the Great Zhao State, which can make the country stable and the people live in peace." ”

"So we can't increase the number of troops at will, which will cause tension in neighboring countries, and maybe cause more friction."

In today's environment, what is the way to weaken the enemy's strength without being detected by the enemy, Weichen thinks it is these eight words "cultural strategy, economic war".
