Chapter 382: Crowning the Taishi
The waves crash on the shore, and thousands of sails race away.
On the mighty river, more than a dozen huge ships are moving forward.
Among them, the largest ship is hoisting the exclusive flag of King Wu!
At this moment, Qingji took his concubines and children, a family of dozens of people, to enjoy the surrounding scenery on the river.
As the king of a country, Qingji is busy when he says he is busy, and he is not busy when he says he is not busy!
At least, Qingji still has time to accompany his wife and children to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
This time, Qingji didn't really come out to travel.
The purpose of his trip was to take a boat to Zhufang County to inspect Wu's shipbuilding industry and to the coast of Yanling to inspect Wu's salt-making technology.
Qingji is just bringing dozens of his wives and children out to play!
As a qualified husband and a qualified father, Qingji is also unwilling to let his wives and children sit in the palace like caged birds and canaries, and it is difficult to see the outside world.
"King, the wind is strong on the river, drink a bowl of ginseng soup to replenish your body."
When Qingji was fishing by the boat, Queen Ji Qi came to his side with lotus steps, and at the same time served a bowl of steaming ginseng soup.
Or Ji Qi cares about Qingji!
When he was bored on the boat, Qingji would inevitably do some "ridiculous games" with his concubines, such as what he announced during the day, and he was the same as that.
The deep meaning of this is not enough for outsiders!
Although it was almost squeezed dry, Qingji was still happy.
Qingji thought that he should also restrain himself, so as not to be unable to bear the bones of his body.
After all, color is a bone scraper!
"Let's put it aside."
Qingji felt that the fishing rod in his hand was shaking, obviously a fish had bitten the hook, so he pulled it up without hurrying.
A big fish that can't be caught with one hand is a big carp!
After putting this carp in the bamboo basket, Qingji caught a glimpse of Ji Qi's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, and couldn't help but wonder.
"Queen, if you have something to say, you don't need to be polite to the widow."
"The King's ......"
Ji Qi hesitated for a moment, and then said softly: "It's about the ancestor." The uncle came to look for the concubine the day before yesterday and asked the concubine to inquire on his behalf, I wonder when the king will decide the candidate for Dazai? ”
Upon hearing this, Qingji was a little ridiculous.
"This old man is really ...... Can a widow still be a scoundrel and go back on his word? ”
It's hard to say!
Ji Qi's heart was full of slander.
She believes in the people who are jealous.
Qingji has never been a man of his word.
It's just that it depends on who you treat and under what circumstances!
Back then, Qingji was a beggar who let Ji Za be the Dazai of Wu and assisted him in stabilizing the situation.
Ji Za has even been sick, but Qingji has not let him go!
These things are still vivid in Jiza's mind so far!
However, Qingji is true to his word, and the promises he gives will generally be fulfilled.
However, Ji Za is worried about Qingji's use of "procrastination".
It's the same as Da Sima Sun who resigned on the same day and wanted to retire after success.
Celebrate the taboo!
It is only necessary to wait for Sun Wu to return from Lingnan before he can step down.
When, exactly, no one knows.
But Sun Ping didn't dare to ask, didn't dare to have any objections!
Ji Za is going to step down from the position of Dazai, who will replace him, Keji has never given it, which has caused Ji Za to be unable to step down for a long time!
As a last resort, Ji Za could only make this decision and find Queen Ji Qi to explore Qingji's tone.
After all, it's a family, and Qingji won't go too far!
"Queen, you say, among the four people recommended by my uncle, who is more suitable to serve as Dazai and take charge of the government of my Wu Kingdom?"
Qingji suddenly asked.
He wanted to hear what Queen Ji Qi had to say.
Ji Qi lowered his head and said slowly: "The king, the concubines don't dare to interfere in politics......
"If the widow tells you to speak, you will say, and it doesn't matter."
Qingji is very open-minded.
is the so-called three stinkers, the top Zhuge Liang!
If multiple people around you can discuss things together, the effect is different.
Even if Qingji already has a suitable candidate in his heart, he still wants to think about it.
After all, the position of Dazai, which is a position below one person and above ten thousand, is very important.
Celebration can't be too casual!
Ji Qi thought seriously for a long time, and finally said: "In the past, the uncle resigned, and recommended four people, including Fan Li, the left prime minister, the right prime minister, Ji Ran, and the great order Kongqiu. ”
"The concubine thinks that Fan Li and Wen are a little young, but they may not be stable enough when they are established."
"In terms of qualifications and merits, the right prime minister is called the first. In terms of popularity, Confucius is the leader. ”
Hearing this, Qing Ji smiled slightly and said, "Ji Ran and Kong Qiu? Good. I don't know who is more suitable for Dazai's position? ”
Fan Li and Wen Chong, with their merits, are indeed able to serve as Dazai.
It's just that, in Queen Ji Qi's opinion, the two are still "young", only thirty or forty years old, I'm afraid they are not stable enough.
Understandable!
"If the king has to ask his concubines to recommend one of them, it should be calculated."
"Why?"
"Kong Qiu is a latecomer in the end, although he has also made a lot of contributions, and his political achievements are outstanding, but he is not as good as the right prime minister."
After a pause, Ji Qi said again: "Besides, Confucius governs the country, is still gentle, focuses on education, respects Zhou rites, and restores the ancient system, which is contrary to the law pursued by the king." ”
"It's different. Considering the mean, pursuing the rule of inaction, can stabilize the situation well, and make the water flow for a long time without making many changes, isn't this exactly what the king values? ”
Hearing this, Qingji couldn't help but smile and said, "Hahahaha, those who know the widow are also queens." ”
"Your thoughts coincide with those of the widow."
Compared with Confucius's set of Confucian doctrines, Qingji is obviously more like the Huang Lao's technique.
Of course, the Confucian way of governing the country is not worthless.
The feudal dynasties of later generations used the template of the Confucian bone, which can be seen!
Qingji reigned for nine years, worked hard, implemented new laws, and worked diligently, which determined the general framework of the Wu State.
The road has basically been paved, and Ji Ran only needs to "follow the rules and regulations" and pursue the previous new law as it is!
This is where Qingji values Ji Ran!
"King, the concubine has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not?"
Ji Qi, who frowned slightly, asked again.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
"After my uncle stepped down, I wonder if the king let my uncle return to the state?"
"Let him go."
Qingji shook his head and said, "Ji Za has worked hard for Wu Guo all his life, it's time to enjoy the rest of his life." ”
"The Great King is benevolent. It's just that I think my uncle must be at a loss. The meaning of the concubine, I wonder if the king can add the uncle as the master to serve as the teacher of the princes? ”
Taishi?
Qingji was stunned for a moment.
Taishi, the official name, began in the Shang Dynasty, when Yin Xun, Jizi was the Taishi, and when King Wu of Zhou, the Taigong was the Taishi.
Due to the successive dynasties, Taishi, Taifu, and Taibao were the "three divisions" or "three dukes", and most of them were the titles of senior officials, with no actual authority.
With Ji Za's merits, it is understandable to be crowned as a Taishi!
