Chapter 157: Fu Jiande, Wang Meng, Liu Bei, Kong Ming

[Wang Meng, whose name is Jingluo, was born in Beihai County of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and later moved to Wei County. He was a famous politician and military strategist during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, and was a former Qin official to a prime minister and a general. He died in June of the eleventh year of Jianyuan (375) at the age of 51. 】

[Wang Meng was still worried about the powerful chieftains of various ethnic groups in the former Qin, and took the Eastern Jin Dynasty as the right place, and persuaded Fu Jian not to attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but it was not adopted, and finally there was a defeat in the water. 】

[Growing up in troubled times, wanting to end this troubled times, this may be the long-cherished wish of Wang Meng, a famous minister through the ages. 】

[Beginning in 325 AD, this year, Wang Meng was born in a poor family in Qingzhou.

Not long before that, 30,000 soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were buried alive here.

The Han people under the alien leadership finally survived Shile's death, but what they waited for was even more brutal and murderous.

Hermes-Epitek is like a sheep in a pen on his own land, slaughtered by others. What dignity and glory are all nonsense in the era of Wuhu chaos, and living is already the greatest luxury of the Han people.

"I'd rather be a peaceful dog than a troubled world", I'm afraid this is the era. 】

[The parents carried the young Wang Meng all the way to the Central Plains, and after they settled down, they made a living by weaving dustpans.

The children of the poor are in charge of the house early, and Wang Meng's immature little hands are often drenched in blood from bamboo cuts.

But he was very clever and slowly started a dustpan business.

Wang Meng carried a dustpan, rounded his legs and could travel hundreds of miles a day, although it was hard work, he had a good physique. 】

[The Book of Jin said that Wang Meng had a unique personality, he looked down on those prodigal sons in the countryside, and he didn't deal with them, so he only lived alone.

Those frivolous young people laughed at him for being unsociable, and Wang Meng ignored him.

After his parents died, Wang Meng, who was alone, sold the dustpan even further. He read thousands of books, traveled thousands of miles, and finally came to live in seclusion at the foot of Mount Hua and continued to hone himself. 】

[The northern land that has been chaotic for decades is dilapidated, and Houfu Hong established the former Qin, and the former Yan divided half of the northern half of the country, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty ruled across the river, Wang Meng was a subject of the former Qin. 】

[In addition to making a living, Wang Meng did not release the scroll and studied hard, especially the most proficient in the art of war. Influenced by culture, Wang Meng grew up and became dignified and extraordinary.

Xu Tong, who has the skill of knowing people, wanted to recruit Wang Meng as a meritorious Cao, but Wang Meng did not agree, and continued to live in seclusion, waiting for the master. 】

[In 354 AD, before the Northern Expedition of Huan Wen to Qin, the garrison was on the bar, and the people of Guanzhong welcomed it.

After Wang Meng heard about it, he went to the camp in linen to pay a visit.

Huan Wen asked about the situation in the world, and Wang Meng answered while picking out lice, analyzing the general trend of the world in an orderly manner.

This is how "talking about lice" was born.

Huan Wen couldn't help but secretly marvel at himself, and asked the military again, asking Wang Meng why he was ordered by the Son of Heaven to rescue Guanzhong, but Guanzhong had no heroes to take refuge in him?

Wang Meng saw through Huan Wen's plan to keep the enemy in his heart, and said bluntly: "Chang'an City is close at hand, but you don't attack it, people don't know your plans, so they don't come to take refuge." ”

Huan Wen was speechless, so he had to praise: "There is no one in Jiangdong who can compare with you." So he wanted to keep Wang Meng.

Wang Meng did not respond because the Eastern Jin Dynasty court only reused the clan, and Huan Wen would usurp again.

Later, Huan Wen had to withdraw his troops due to lack of food and grass. 】

[In the second year, the one-eyed tyrant of the former Qin Dynasty, Fu Sheng, succeeded to the throne.

He killed people like hemp, causing panic throughout the country, and even pushing the country to the brink of life and death.

In order to protect himself and the country, Fu Jian decided to launch a coup d'Γ©tat, and Lu Polou recommended Wang Meng to Fu Jian.

The two hit it off at first sight and talked all night.

Fu Jian even compared himself to Wang Meng to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. 】

"Kong Ming hasn't been counted yet, and he is already at least one of the top three celebrities in history." Guan Yu looked at the screen, and felt very remorseful in his heart: "I regret not listening to Kong Ming's words, resulting in the defeat of Jingzhou, I hope that after I go back this time, I can admit my mistake to him in person." ”

"Liu Bei has Kong Ming, like a fish in water!"

"I hope Wang Meng can go with me, if there are two Wang Meng to assist our three brothers, then wouldn't heaven and earth be omnipotent?" Ran Min couldn't help but start YY up.

[In 357 A.D., the tyrant Fu Sheng's atrocities were already angry.

Fu Jian then united with Fu Fa, killed Fu Sheng in one fell swoop, and established himself as the king of Great Qin, with the year name Yongxing.

At that time, although the tyrants were eliminated, the places were already very chaotic, traitors were in power, and illegal acts were frequent, especially in Shiping County. In order to eliminate treachery and clarify the world, Fu Jian asked Wang Meng to be the commander of Shiping County and rectify the rule of officials.

At the beginning of Wang Meng's tenure, he attacked with thunder and killed several people who were corrupt and perverted the law, and the thieves were afraid, so they jointly sued.

Fu Jian wanted to focus on morality, so he blamed Wang Meng for this matter, blaming him for being too strict. It can also be seen from this that Fu Jian is indeed too benevolent, and it is not surprising that he was able to pardon Murong Trai under the Golden Knife Plan later. 】

"Murong Chui. I also know that His Majesty did not kill Murong Trai because he did not want to chill the hearts of those who surrendered. Wang Meng in the pillar of light said with some helplessness and sadness: "But it is impossible for Murong Chui to sincerely take refuge in His Majesty, because he is the prince of Qianyan!" He took refuge in His Majesty, just to take the opportunity to restore the country! ”

It's a pity that Fu Jian can't hear it for the time being.

And even if Fu Jian could hear it, he would not follow Wang Meng's advice, Fu Jian was the emperor of the former Qin, and he and Wang Meng considered the problem from different angles.

[Fu Jian reprimanded Wang Meng, and Wang Meng refuted on the grounds that the troubled times used heavy canons. Fu Jian sighed and appreciated, and compared Wang Meng with Guan Zhong and Zisan.

Because of Wang Meng's extraordinary talent, he was soon promoted to five levels in a row, and was appointed as the left servant of Shangshu and the captain of Si Li, and was deeply hated by the former Qin ministers and relatives of the clan.

The veteran Fan Shi attacked Wang Meng and was executed by Fu Jian; Qiu Teng and Xi Bao slandered Wang Meng and were demoted by Fu Jian.

In the political struggle, Wang Meng not only did not lose power, but also because of Fu Jian's trust, he was able to become the third duke. 】

[After that, Wang Meng pointed the finger at the lawless relatives of the Queen Mother, and killed them by thunderbolt, and at the same time united with Deng Qiang and others to execute more than 20 lawless magnates in the government and the opposition, eradicated the evil spirits, and restored the government to sight.

Fu Jian sighed for this: "Today, I know that there is a law in the world, and the emperor is honorable." 】

[While punishing the evil, Wang Meng also made meritocracy, such as recommending and reusing Fu Rong, Ren Qun, Fang Mo, Hao Luo and others.

Wang Meng was fair in politics and decisive in handling things, and when he was in office, the former Qin was stable and peaceful, the people were self-sufficient, and Wang Meng himself was deeply loved by the people of Guanzhong.

A few years later, Wang Zhenwei led the troops to Guanzhong, and when the people heard that Wang Zhenwei was Wang Meng's grandson, they no longer resisted, welcomed them in the middle of the road, and offered meat to welcome the Jin army.

With the joint efforts of Fu Jian and Wang Meng, the former Qin state became stronger and stronger, laying a solid foundation for the later unification of the north. It can be seen that having a wise ruler and a talented leadership can be of no small difference to the country. 】
