"But whether it is Cheng Yanjin or Xue Rengui, it shows that Li Shimin has a pair of discerning eyes."

"In the last years of Zhenguan, at a court meeting, Li Shimin asked the eldest grandson Wuji to evaluate his mistakes as the emperor in front of the ministers."

"Although the eldest grandson Wuji is Li Shimin's brother-in-law, he didn't dare to answer this question, so he had to pat himself on the back."

This sycophant slapped on the thigh, Li Shimin was greatly displeased, and then began to evaluate the important ministers in the court in front of the ministers.

"The eldest grandson Wuji is good at avoiding suspicion and quick to deal with, which is not inferior to the ancient sages, but commanding the army is not his strength."

"Gao Shilian is involved in the past and the present, he is intelligent, he does not change his integrity in the face of difficulties, and he does not make friends privately as an official, but what he lacks is to be honest and honest."

"Tang Jian's words are beautiful and fluent, his temperament is peaceful, he is empathetic, and his words are even more eloquent, but it is a pity that he has followed me for 30 years, but he has not made any remarks or gains or losses for the country."

"Master Yang is pure and virtuous, and his moral character is beyond reproach, but he is cowardly, difficult to take on great responsibilities, and no matter how urgent the affairs are, he is not effective."

"Cen Wen has a good character, and his articles are his strengths, but he is accustomed to quoting scriptures and classics, and sometimes he is ...... out of reality."

Li Shimin commented on the civil and military ministers under his command one by one, although the tone was euphemistic, but it hit the nail on the head, which shows the viciousness of Li Shimin's vision and meticulous observation.

"It is precisely because of this pair of discerning eyes that Li Shimin can make the best use of his talents and establish a strong and efficient talent team, and Zhenguan Dazhi is jointly created by Li Shimin and his talent team."

"Of course, with a vicious vision and no source of talents, Li Shimin will not have a large number of talents available, and Li Shimin also has his own uniqueness in the development of human resources."

"In the first year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin first ascended to the throne, and talents were scarce at that time."

So he ordered the then prime minister Feng Deyi to be responsible for recommending talents to the imperial court.

"But a few months have passed, and I haven't seen a single talent."

Li Shimin was very unhappy, so he went to question Feng Deyi.

Feng Deyi used the excuse that there were no talents in the world, which made Li Shimin laugh angrily, and he said: "A gentleman uses people like tools, and each takes his strengths." How can the rulers of the ancients borrow from other generations? He who is suffering from a world of danger that he cannot know, and who is a slanderer!"

"This sentence is the essence of Li Shimin's life, everyone has their own shining point, as long as this person's ability can be discovered, let him go to the right position, the world's talents will be inexhaustible."

"And Feng Deyi has no vision to discover talents, but slanders that there are no talents in the world, is every dynasty borrowing talents from other dynasties?"

"Seeing that Feng Deyi was useless, Li Shimin personally went out, and at that time, there were ten talents in the world, and eight of them were in the family."

"There are also elites among the poor, but the upward channel is monopolized by the family."

"So, Li Shimin personally issued an edict: No matter the family, no matter the new one, no matter Huayi, no matter the Shishu, as long as you have no hindrance in your conduct and outstanding learning, you can come to me to find a job."

"Li Shimin's edict directly broke the monopoly of the scholars on the upward channel, coupled with the further improvement of the imperial examination system, a part of the noble sons of the poor family began to emerge in the Tang Dynasty."

"Such as Zhenguan Prime Minister Ma Zhou, he is from a poor family, he has been unwilling in the early days, and then was discovered by Li Shimin by chance, this time it is terrible, to Zhenguan ten years later, Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui and other capable ministers passed away one after another, Ma Zhou became their successor."

"The so-called upper ones work hard, the middle ones work hard, and the lower ones work hard."

"Li Shimin is definitely a master, he is good at delegating power to his ministers, knows people well, and uses people without suspicion."

"Therefore, although things during the Zhenguan period were tricky, Li Shimin, who had a large number of talents, did not die of overwork."

"All these are the lessons that Li Shimin learned from Emperor Wen of Sui and Yang Jian."

"Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian, is a master who would rather exhaust himself to death than dare to let go of power easily."

"I don't want to trust Baisi, and everything is self-determined, although it is hard work and hard work, and I can't do it all right."

This sentence vividly exposed Yang Jian's shortcomings in employing people.

But delegating power is not the same as letting go, Li Shimin will also beat his ministers from time to time, and after the beating, he will give them some benefits. The typical slap and then a date to eat, which is what we now call a carrot and a stick. ”

"Li Jing, Wei Chigong, Li Shiyun, Fang Xuanling and other founding fathers, from the ministers of the dragon, have all been cared for by Li Shimin so much."

"In the fourth year of Zhenguan, Li Jing pacified the Eastern Turks and made immortal contributions."

"I originally came to Chang'an with enthusiasm to receive the award, but I was ginseng."

"The person who participated in him was Wen Yanbo, saying that he connived at his subordinates to plunder money and committed a taboo in the army, which made Li Jing break out in a cold sweat and panic all day long."

"But I didn't know that Li Shimin was because Li Jing's credit was too great, and he was worried that he would be proud of his achievements, so Wen Yanbo participated in Li Jing's book."

"Let me ask, Li Jing has achieved immortal achievements and is gaining momentum, how could Wen Yanbo offend Li Jing at this time? Without Li Shimin's instructions behind it, it is difficult to believe. ”

"When Li Shimin saw Li Jing, he reprimanded him severely, and then asked him to go back to his house to reflect."

After a while, Li Shimin felt that the beating was almost done, so he summoned Li Jing to the palace and began to reward him.

"This made Li Jing grateful to Li Shimin, but at the same time, he also had a strong sense of vigilance against Li Shimin, so unless there was a war later, Li Jing stayed in the mansion all the time, and he was a homebody with peace of mind, writing military books."

"The rest of the ministers also have the same experience as Li Jing, Li Shimin's trick has been used repeatedly, and these ministers under him have been obedient."

"In general, Li Shimin's way of employing people is nothing more than these points, with a pair of discerning eyes, good at discovering talents, and daring to use people, such as Wei Zheng, he dares to use people, dare to delegate power, after figuring out the advantages and disadvantages of these talents, make the best use of their talents, radish and stick, let these talents do their duty, power checks and balances, do not let one family dominate, and the ministers are unacceptable."

"But it's easier said than done, how many people in the world can use the above points of employment to the fullest like Li Shimin?"

"Successful leaders have always reused talents, and the reason why Tang Taizong Li Shimin was able to set the country and secure the country can be called a generation of holy ancestors, which is inseparable from the assistance of Prime Minister Wei Zheng, so that when Wei Zheng died, Tang Taizong spoke highly of him."

"There are also Liu Bei's three visits to the thatched cottage to invite Zhuge Liang, Wolong to go out of the mountain to set the world's three points, Zhang Liang to assist Liu Bang, etc., abound."

"Facts have proved that only by reusing talents can we make a difference, otherwise, meritocracy can only be self-contained."
