Chapter 206: The Sage Said

"Bang!"

Just when Zhang Yuan was hesitating whether to take a risk, but he couldn't make up his mind, he suddenly heard a bang, and several cases in front of him jumped on all fours, and a tea cup was also shaken to the ground, and it shattered in front of him.

Zhang was originally frightened.

Suddenly, I heard Zhao Xin shout angrily, "Huating Hou!"

"Minister... Minister!"

Zhang Yuan, who was still hesitating about taking a risk just now, was a little stunned by his sudden slap and drink, and subconsciously agreed.

"I handed over this great wilderness county to you, is this how you govern me?"

Zhao Xin asked in a stern tone, feeling that he was extremely angry.

Zhang Yuan's face changed sharply, and Zhao Xin seemed to be chatting with him in the previous sentence, vaguely meaning that he seemed to be questioning his loyalty.

Suddenly, he jumped to governance, he suddenly couldn't turn around, and instinctively defended: "Your Majesty, governing the Great Wilderness County, the ministers have been conscientious, lightly dispensing with meager endowments, and educating the people with morality, and the ministers are ......."

"Hmph, so I wronged you?"

Zhao Xin sneered.

"Don't dare, ...... minister"

Zhao Xin interrupted him with a chuckle, and asked with a sneer: "Don't be a minister, I ask you, since you became the county guard, have you ever walked out of this county guard mansion to the people to see how the people under your rule live?"

He suddenly changed the topic, naturally out of psychological offensive considerations.

After all, Zhang Yuan is the guardian of a county and a prince.

Later generations often understood the prefectures of this era as the provinces of later generations, and corresponded the counties with the general prefecture-level cities, thinking that those states were the princes of one side, and the county guards and the like were second-level magistrates.

Not really.

Whether it is the Han rule in the Chinese world or the Qin system in this world, the assassin history is actually not a big official, or even a permanent official official, and it is no more than 600 stones, which is worse than some powerful county orders.

Only in a few times, when the assassin became a state pastor, it was no longer a prince, and it was almost a separatist force.

For example, Liu Yan, Liu Zhang, father and son, Liu Biao, Jingzhou pastor, etc., who opened the state pastoral system in the Three Kingdoms era, it is no longer appropriate for these people to say that they are princes, and they are separatist forces.

Not to mention later, Liu Bei's purple-collared Yizhou herd.

In normal times, the county guard is the most powerful local prince of this era.

The gap between them and those princes and kings is actually just a name, and even some princes and kings are far inferior to the county guards in terms of territory and power.

Of course, the exception to the Chu State in the early Western Han Dynasty was that one county had six counties, but this kind of general would eventually rebel and be killed, or the emperor would be forced to rebel and then killed.

Such a prince, even if it is a mediocre official like Zhang Yuan, who talks all day long and is full of what Huang Lao does nothing, he also has the recklessness of the princes of one side in his heart.

For example, when he saw Zhao Xin for the first time, he really didn't recognize it, but when Zhao Xin directly called himself "I", he instantly recognized it, and the person in front of him was the Zhao Xin he had seen back then.

Today's Great Qin Tianzi.

And then for a moment, he seemed to be stunned, but it was actually a half-truth.

On the surface, it was indeed shocking.

But his mind was also spinning rapidly, thinking about the reasons for the emperor's appearance and countermeasures.

Naturally, there are some big rebellions among them, such as pretending not to know and driving them out, and even thinking of sending someone to tell the prince of Qi, and then borrowing a knife to kill someone.

It's just that Zhao Xin is the Son of Heaven after all, and he is not a decisive person, so such a decision is not so easy to make.

But when the soldiers arrived, he didn't stop drinking immediately, which explained the problem.

However, Li Cunxiao shocked him at that moment.

He instantly understood what Li Cunxiao meant, these soldiers couldn't keep the emperor, but Li Cunxiao had the ability to take him down as soon as possible.

That's when he pretended to reprimand the soldiers harshly.

Then it is a kind of performance, just for the emperor to see.

It's the same even if you bow down.

If Zhao Xin was like normal monarch etiquette at that time, he would have lifted him up, and then he would have a corporal of courtesy.

Then the two sides are left with nothing but vanity and wrongdoing.

No matter what he was asked to do, he could find a bunch of reasons to shirk it.

Therefore, Zhao Xin deliberately did the opposite, not only did he not treat each other politely, but he didn't even say "flat".

Let him kneel.

And casually say something ambiguous to him, what thoughts, what not to congratulate.

It sounds like chatting, and it sounds like making excuses and accountability.

It is to make him feel psychological pressure and cranky.

Let him scare himself.

But when he saw that the heat was almost over, he suddenly changed his face, he was afraid of a few cases, and he drank coldly, and instantly shocked Zhang Yuan, who was about to be unable to bear the pressure and turned into a biting rabbit.

Then he immediately changed the subject, that is, to get him to refute and justify.

As soon as this rebuttal was justified, the little desperate thought that had just been aroused naturally collapsed in an instant.

So as soon as he explained, what kind of "lightly punish the thin endowment, and educate with morality" and the like, Zhao Xin was instantly relieved.

The art of war is cloudy, one blow, then decline, and three exhaustion.

Zhang Yuan's character, although some of the ambitions are also very weak, the first time it was disintegrated, and the second time it was dissolved, this person is not to worry.

But when he really said this, Zhao Xin really couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

Especially when asked if he had been to the folk to see it, this person was stunned, and he felt even more angry.

Needless to say, this man must not know what kind of life the people live under his rule.

Or they know it, but they just turn a blind eye.

I couldn't help but snort coldly.

"What is lightly endowed, what is moralized and edified, to put it bluntly, it is just that set of inaction.

If the officials of Great Qin are like you, ruling by inaction and doing nothing, then what do I want you to do, and what do the people want to feed you meat eaters?"

"This ...... The sage said......"

Zhang Yuan's color changed when he heard this, and he wanted to defend himself, but when he opened his mouth, he was talking about some sage.

Zhao Xin was also impatient to listen, and waved his hand and said, "Stop, didn't your sage tell you that the people still need to eat?"

He was angry with that.

Who knew that Zhang Yuan thought about it, and actually said with a serious face: "I said it."

The sage said: Sufficient food, foot soldiers, and the faith of the people. He asked: I have no choice but to go, which of the three comes first? Zigong said: I have to go, which of the two comes first? Since ancient times, there have been deaths, and the people have no faith and cannot stand. ”

While saying this, he shook his head, feeling that he was almost the same as the rotten Confucianism of the later generations that Zhao Xin knew.

At this time, Mr. Ning, who had been lying on his stomach and was just trembling, actually interjected, "The servant thinks that he should add more courtesy, and he should be led by courtesy!"

Zhang Yuan heard the words and said: "Well, what Mr. Ning said is true, you should teach it to be polite, and the people only know etiquette, and then they know honesty and shame, and they know that they are inferior and humble...... Knowing that the poor are happy...... Ah, good, beautiful~!"

The two of them were lying there and didn't look up, but you actually talked to me word by word.
