The beauty is gone, and she can't find it anywhere, and the baby has no choice but to blow the bone flute again and ask the ghost.

Baby Zi is not the only eyeliner of Ghost Question, in the palace of the Seven Kingdoms, Baby Zi is everywhere like this, Ghost Ask understands the intelligence of the Seven Kingdoms through them, and assists Black Lotus in cultivating anti-Western religious forces.

After listening to the baby's words, the ghost didn't know how to answer. Among so many eyeliner, Bao Baozi is excellent, but she is too loyal, she really regards King Qi as her everything, and everything is done from the perspective of King Qi.

"In this matter, you can find the result when you go to Zhu Yun." The ghost didn't bother to intervene, so he directly asked the baby to go to Yunyao and let them discuss it themselves.

"Looking for him?" Babyzi never suspected that the kidnapping case would have something to do with this genius of the world.

Since it was the immortal in the bone flute who said so, then it must be true. Immediately took Pan'er and called a few guards to go to the small courtyard.

It's chaotic outside, and the disappearance of beauties for no reason is a big topic, as the audience spreads all over the city, everyone has all kinds of speculations, of course, the most suspicious is King Qi, everyone thinks that King Qi is hiding the beauty.

Of course, there is a more reliable statement, which is to say that the beauty is so beautiful that it alarmed the gods, and the gods brought the beauty to the sky. It's almost the same as the truth, but the motive is wrong.

"Zhu Fuzi." The baby is here, but she is not sure whether the ghost asks is reliable, although the ghost has helped her solve the problem before, but this time she is very worried.

"Come in."

Everyone met in the courtyard.

Yun Yao looked at the other party and had to admit that the baby was indeed loyal and had spent a lot of time recruiting talents, but she shouldn't continue to waste time on her. So Yun Yao said: "Some things should be made clear, no matter what you do, I can't serve the Qi country." ”

"And which country are you going to?" Baby's face is not very good-looking, in her opinion, any country appointing Yun Yao is a threat to the Qi State.

"Why do I have to serve the monarch?" Yun Yao thought it was funny and said, "Can't I be a hermit?" ”

"Your talent can only be displayed above the court, I don't believe you will be willing to retire." Babyzi said with certainty.

"If you are too talented, you may not be able to be reused, just like the Mo family, if the King of Qi can reuse the Mo family, he can naturally strengthen the Qi country. It's just that the monarchy of the King of Qi may not be able to be kept, and the Mo family can strengthen the Qi State but will threaten the monarch, between protecting himself and protecting the country, I think the King of Qi will definitely choose to protect himself, even at the cost of the entire country. Yun Yao's words are true, not to mention the current monarch, that is, the future emperor will choose to protect the imperial power in the dilemma of choosing the royalist power or the royalist dynasty.

Because the imperial power is not protected, the emperor's enemies will kill him, and the emperor's allies will also kill him.

Therefore, after the emperor ascended the throne, all he could gain was the enemy, and the only way he could choose was to protect himself.

"Your words are unfounded nonsense." Babyzi frowned, she had lived for more than thirty years, and she was used to seeing treacherous struggles in the palace, but in fact, she knew better than anyone that the interests of King Qi and the country were not unified. Now it seems that the King of Qi is enlightened and the State of Qi is prosperous, but it is only because the King of Qi currently needs to continue to expand his control over the country and crack down on the Emperor, and at the same time, the State of Qi also needs to be rectified, so the interests of the monarch and the interests of the State of Qi are temporarily the same.

But when King Qi is old and his control is reduced, he will fall into the contradiction of protecting himself or the country. He had to shrink his forces against some policies that were beneficial to the country, because he had to avoid profiting from them. It is better not to develop national power than to strengthen one's enemies.

At the same time, because of the weakened control, many allies will also become enemies, so the old monarch usually reuses villains. The villain needs to borrow the monarch to grow, and the monarch needs to use the villain to suppress allies and enemies, so the monarch and the villain are trading with each other.

In the end, if the monarch can't even control the villain, then it will be starving to death.

Therefore, many times the monarchs in history listened to slander and reused traitors, which was actually a means of self-preservation. Because for the monarch, whether it is an ally, an enemy, or even a countryman, it is all the people who share his interests. When the monarch has no interest, he will be kicked away.

Therefore, the monarch always needs to think about his own priority, if the development of national power will strengthen the enemy and strengthen the allies, then the monarch would rather choose not to develop, because the first person to be threatened by development is the monarch himself.

That's why it's better not to develop than to develop, not to develop to maintain the status quo, the monarch has the most power, suppresses allies and enemies, and is the only one.

However, there is also a disadvantage to not developing, that is, the upper limit of interests is limited, and the whole country is stagnant. In the end, internal interest struggles are still inevitable, and the monarch still has to face the flanking attacks of allies and enemies, so the monarchs usually use to pull one faction to fight the other faction to maintain balance, anyway, as long as they don't let their spearhead point at the monarch himself, no matter how the people below kill each other. Of course, it is also necessary to prevent allies from annexing enemies and becoming stronger, or enemies from annexing allies to become stronger, and the monarch needs both allies and enemies to be alive and dead.

This is the art of conspiracy, and Yun Yao's art of scheming is more explicit than that of the Legalists. The Legalists' tactics are mainly in rewards and punishments, so that the monarch can take advantage of these two points to control the country. Yun Yao pointed directly to the composition of the state's rights, that is, the struggle of interest groups, rewards and punishments are only the method of resource delivery, not the essence.

The monarch rewards one and makes him strong in order for him to balance another. And to punish a person, it is to weaken someone.

Legalists simply believe that meritorious service is rewarded and punished, and the real art of power and conspiracy controls not reward and punishment, but merit and demerit.

Some people may want to say that this is not looking for death? How can this be hidden from the eyes of the world?

There is no need to hide it, saying that what the monarch needs is self-preservation, if the reward according to merit will lead to someone who has high merit to cover the master, then the monarch should not be rewarded, because a reward is to erect an enemy for himself. Even if he will be scolded, it is impossible for those who scold the monarch to shake the position of the monarch immediately, and the scolding will be scolded. The existence of the meritorious lord may threaten the monarch at any time, and it must never exist, so the monarch must make a fuss, violate the rule that meritorious merit is rewarded and punished, stifle potential enemies, and support favorable allies.

All the sons and hundreds of schools of thought believe that the country perished because the monarch did not follow the rules, so the monarch and the ministers lost their manners and led to the destruction of the country. But the problem is that the rules are not set by the monarch alone, the rules are set by the monarch and the doctor together, and doing things according to the rules may mean that the monarch does not make a profit, only the doctor makes a profit. Faced with such a situation, the monarch will naturally not continue to act according to the rules. If you don't follow the rules, you can procrastinate, and if you do things according to the rules, you may not see the sun tomorrow.

So Yun Yao is right, too high talent does not necessarily mean that it is beneficial to the monarch.

"King Qi is working hard, you are talented, why don't you reopen the hegemony of Qi State?" Seeing that Yun Yao didn't speak, the baby was worried that Yun Yao was afraid of angering King Qi, so he couldn't help but say good things for King Qi: "King Qi has the bearing of Duke Huan, you have the talent of a pipe, don't worry about personal maverick behavior will cause punishment, King Qi is not such a stingy person." ”

Yun Yao said: "It's a pity that my talent is impossible for King Qi to accept." ”

The baby was a little angry, and at this time she saw someone behind the crack in the door of the house, and that person was Bi Huan. The baby was stunned for a moment, and then he was greatly annoyed, only thinking that this Zhu Yun toasted and did not eat and drink, creating opportunities for him not to use it, but kidnapping the beauty with dirty methods, how despicable is this?
