Watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court, and look at the clouds outside the sky.

In the courtyard of the palace, Zhu Gaoxian was lying on a rattan chair, holding a volume of "Shufu Yuan Turtle", leisurely flipping through it.

This book is one of the four major books of the Northern Song Dynasty, which tells the deeds of the monarchs and ministers of the past dynasties, from ancient times to the five dynasties, for the future of the law, so that the opener has the benefit. All 1,000 volumes, Zhu Gaoxian has been reading for two years, and he has only finished reading more than 80 volumes, and it is estimated that he will not be able to finish reading them in a few decades.

After Lu Chaoyang entered the palace, he saw Zhu Gaoxian in the courtyard, and bowed and saluted: "Lord."

Zhu Gaoxian's eyes were still on the pages of ancient books, and he asked casually, "How did those two little guys surnamed Su handle?"

said that he was a little guy, but in fact, the Su brothers were not a few years younger than him.

"The minister has settled these two men, and has found a doctor for treatment, and has found a place for them to live." Lu Chaoyang said respectfully, "They originally came to the capital to defect to the world friends, but they didn't know that the Su family's world friends had collapsed, so they wanted to ask you for an errand, but they ...... The minister did not agree."

Lu Chaoyang still did not agree to Su Wen's request in the end.

He, Lu someone, gave this life to the prince, and without the prince's order, Lu Chaoyang would not promise anyone anything.

Zhu Gaoxian was finally reluctant to put down the book, and said vigorously: "I have read the experience of these two little guys. It's similar to you, the only difference is that they at least have a brother to rely on, and you...... Anyway, count their fate, pass on the king's order, and Su Wen will enter the palace as a guard of honor and lead a team of honor guards. Su Wu will try for the palace, and the outer court will do things."

Lu Chaoyang's eyes flashed with a little gratitude: "No."

Zhu Gaoxian waved his hand: "Go down, this king is tired."

Lu Chaoyang left lightly and glanced up at the sky.

The two brothers surnamed Su had great luck, ascended to the sky in one step, and went directly into the Qi Wangfu to do things, which is an errand that many people dream of.

……

The shadow servant Ah Qi frowned slightly: "Are you deliberately saying these words to Lu Chaoyang?"

Zhu Gaoxian continued to read the ancient book in his hand: "How can you see it?"

Ah Qi groaned for a moment and said, "A calculating person like you would never do anything without a reason. If you really want to do good deeds, why did you say it in front of Lu Chaoyang?"

"Ah Qi, sometimes people are too smart to lose their lives." Zhu Gaoxian said faintly.

Ah Qi didn't take Zhu Gaoxian's threat to heart, and continued: "An outlaw like Lu Chaoyang seems to be invulnerable, but in fact, his fatal weakness lies in heartache. The Su brothers' experience was exactly the same as his, which made Lu Chaoyang feel a little sympathetic. Now you are using the Su brothers as the theme to promote these two people to the palace, which is actually to win the hearts of Lu Chaoyang's people and make him work harder for you. The icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow, I am afraid that the Su brothers also think so. Kill two birds with one stone, dare you say you didn't calculate this?"

Zhu Gaoxian shook his head and said, "For a smart person like you, I will generally only use three methods to deal with you."

"Which three?" Ah Qi asked.

"First, if you can use it for me, you will accept it." Zhu Gaoxian raised two fingers and said, "Second, if you can't use it for me, you will kill it."

Then he asked, "What about the third type?"

The corners of Zhu Gaoxian's mouth rose: "If you can't use a woman for me, marry her!"

Ah Qi was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "What a pervert!"

Zhu Gaoxian glanced at Ah Qi's slender figure, and said regretfully, "It's a pity that you are not a woman, but fortunately you are not a woman."

Ah Qi's true face under the mask frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

Zhu Gaoxian said leisurely: "The figure is so good, it's a pity that it's a man, and fortunately you are a man, otherwise other people's babies will eat breast milk, and your babies will only be able to gnaw on the slate, you are really flat!" Otherwise, I'll think that your true face under this mask is a woman's face!"

"Die!" Ah Qi was furious.

……

In terms of buying people's hearts, there are three personalities in Zhu Gaoxian's mind that he is best at-

Ying Zheng, Li Shimin, Cao Cao.

Brother Zheng's way of employing people can't be learned, this is the charm of personality, if he stops there, there will be countless people who worship him, and such a person may not be able to produce one in a thousand years.

In Xianyang City thousands of years ago, Yingzheng and his followers, a group of teenagers in their early twenties, had one mind and a common ambition, and swept Liuhe!

As for Li Er and Li Shimin, the way of employing people is to give both grace and power, and the rewards and punishments are clear, which is the way of the emperor.

Boss Cao's way of employing people is even more urine, employing people without suspicion, and killing suspicious people.

And Zhu Gaoxian's way of employing people is to meet different people and use different ways to buy people's hearts, and the more seeds you sow, the bigger the nursery will be.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

The head of the household, Xia Yuanji, walked into the imperial study with joy and bowed his head: "Minister Xia Yuanji, see the prince!"

Zhu Gaoxian couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Xia Yuanji so happy: "Lord Xia is so happy, is there any great joy?"

The smile on Xia Yuanji's face could not be hidden, and he arched his hand and said, "Lord Wang, Hurricane Fuzhou, peaceful!"

"Hold the grass?" Zhu Gaoxian was stunned for a moment, "Is it so sudden?"

Two days ago, the typhoon in Fuzhou was still in an uproar, and there was chaos in the Wenhua Palace, which suddenly calmed down?

"Lord, this is the truth!" Xia Yuanji said excitedly.

This is so evil that Xia Laoxuan thought it was Zhu Gaoxian inviting God.

At that time, the Lord of the Household Department asked King Qi how to deal with the typhoon in Fuzhou, and King Qi directly came to "Taishang Laojun is as anxious as a law", showing Lord Xia that he was stupid.

Unexpectedly, within a few days, the typhoon in Fuzhou really suddenly dissipated!

Although Zi Buyu was confused, Xia Yuanji was now a little skeptical about the authenticity of this sentence.

Could it be that King Qi really has the ability to call the wind and rain?

Ya is too evil!

Now this matter is spread in the Wenhua Palace, saying that King Qi is a Da Luo Jin Immortal, with the mandate of heaven, he discussed it with His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, and God really won't make natural disasters!

Zhu Gaoxian pondered: "This is about to be the New Year, the hurricane has subsided, this is the country's luck, let the Ministry of Rites arrange it, and pay tribute to heaven and earth to celebrate the coming year."

The great gift of sacrificing to heaven is not so much a sacrifice to the sky as it is a sacrifice to people.

Zhu Gaoxian himself is an atheist, he believes that things are man-made, and man will win the day.

But in ancient times, nine out of ten people were victims of feudal superstition, believing that all natural laws were due to the destiny of heaven. For example, if a person is sick inexplicably, his first thought is not to go to the doctor, but to think about what he has done, offended the heavenly father, and the heavenly god has condemned himself. Of course, the premise is that he has the money to find a doctor, and the money for medical treatment in these years, even if it is only a medical fee, is enough for an ordinary family of three to eat for a month.

Before the Jingjing, Zhu Di fooled the soldiers in the Yanwang Mansion to rebel with him, his eloquence has always been very good, and he is professional in fooling people. Just as Zhu Di said that his mouth was like a river, a strong wind suddenly blew the roof tiles away.

It wasn't a big deal, but the soldiers looked pale and felt that it didn't bode well, and God was against their rebellion.

Fortunately, Yao Guangxiao, the old monk's head, was easy to use, and he immediately said: "The real dragon flies into the sky, there must be wind and rain with it, and the tiles fall to the ground, this is auspicious!"

Just because a gust of wind overturned the roof tiles, Zhu Di had to talk about it for a long time before he could fool things over, which shows how deeply the people of the Ming Dynasty were poisoned by feudal superstition.

And now Zhu Gaoxian is holding a ceremony to worship the sky, the real purpose is not to thank God for taking back the wind, but to tell the people of Limin: Everyone has seen it, God is covering me Daming, is it awesome! I can warn you, if any of you have any bad intentions and want to rebel and mutiny, I advise you to think about it, you are going against the sky, and you will be killed with five thunderbolts!

"I understand." Natsuhara nodded.

Lord Xia does not believe in God, but believes in Confucianism.

The funny thing is that most of the civil and military officials in the court, including the emperor, are atheists, but they are all trying their best to make the people believe in God.

In the hearts of the people, the emperor is the true son of heaven, the reincarnation of the golden dragon, if the emperor is angry, God will be angry, as if the emperor is omnipotent, with three heads and six arms.

But in fact, these people in the court know very well in their hearts, what kind of thing is the emperor Laozi, they go to the court every day, and they don't see the emperor showing a golden dragon claw.

Emperors, like ordinary people, are ordinary people.

But they need to convince the common people that the emperor is the mandate of heaven, and those who disobey the mandate of heaven will be punished by heaven!

……

Jiming Temple

The black-clothed prime minister and the emperor sat opposite each other, with the king of Han serving on the side, black and white on the chessboard, Zhu Di pinched the white son with two fingers, but he didn't know where to fall, and fell into contemplation.

"Emperor, you've lost." Yao Guangxiao said calmly.

On the chessboard, the sunspot controlled by Yao Guangxiao was like a tiger, and he had bitten the throat of the white dragon.

King Han glanced at the black-clothed monk with admiration, everyone knew that Zhu Di was a stinky chess basket, but no matter who played chess with the emperor, he could only deliberately give in. Only this black-clothed prime minister really dared to win when he played chess with the emperor, and he showed no mercy at all.

"No, I haven't lost yet." Zhu Di gently swept away two sunspots on the chessboard, so that the sunspots, who were already in a desperate situation, could breathe, "I can still regret the chess."

Yao Guangxiao smiled bitterly, "Aren't you cheating?"

"Playing chess, you win, being a man, I win." Zhu Di was not ashamed but proud, and said complacently, "Unscrupulous means are the way to win, blindly acting according to the rules, how can you win forever?"

can say that the trick is so reasonable, and only Zhu Di is the only one.

Zhu Di dropped a white son, like a sharp sword stuck in the hinterland of the black tiger on the chessboard, and said casually, "Yes, King Han."

King Han was stunned for a moment, and for a while, he couldn't tell what the emperor was hinting at.
