Chapter Eighty-Three: The Three Strategies of Heaven and Man (I)
"The King's Master, the Emperor's Master, the World's Master-"
Ji Tianquan's words fell, and Ji Chengqing splashed ink in one fell swoop.
Dong Tianshu said in a trembling voice: "Chenben Buyi, how can he be worthy of this great responsibility?"
Ji Tianquan dragged Dong Tianshu up from the ground without saying a word, and said undoubtedly: "What's wrong with Buyi, Lao Tzu was still a sheep herder back then!"
Dong Tianshu immediately woke up to Ji Tianquan's intention, he deserved to be an ancient genius with outstanding wisdom, and he didn't want to say: "Your Majesty inherits the mandate of heaven and settles down to the people, how can Weichen be able to look at Xiang Bei?"
Ji Tianquan was stunned, and then smiled at Ji Chengche and said, "Yes, he is really a smart person." ”
It's not that he can't believe Ji Cheng's eyes, but he's just worried that Dong Tianshu is a nerd with a full stomach, how will he deal with those old foxes who have been boiled up and down in the government and the opposition in the future?
He pulled Dong Tianshu's chair and sat down, and asked seemingly casually: "What do you mean by inheriting the mandate of heaven? ”
Dong Tianshu's spirits were greatly lifted, knowing that this was Emperor Longwu who wanted to personally test himself.
He pondered for a moment and cleared his throat, but he didn't answer Ji Tianquan's question, he suddenly knelt down and kowtowed deeply, and said in a loud voice: "Minister Dong Tianshu dares to ask Your Majesty to call him the Son of Heaven, accept hundreds of families, and open the cold door!"
Ji Tianquan looked at Dong Tianshu for a long time without saying a word, his brows became tighter and tighter, and he slowly stretched out, and slapped the table and said, "Get up and say!"
"Yes!" Dong Tianshu stood up, his face was radiant, where was he still a depressed scholar?
"The Son of Heaven should regard the heavens as his father and his filial piety. Therefore, Your Majesty should worship the gods with a great ceremony for the son to serve the father, and rule the world with filial piety, worship the heavens as the father, and raise the people as sons!"
Ji Tianquan stared at Dong Tianshu and said, "According to what you said, if Lao Tzu abandons the Heavenly Taoism and worships the heavens and respects the ancestors, can he succeed?"
Dong Tianshu replied loudly: "The name is justified, and it is justified!"
Ji Tianquan listened attentively, and unconsciously crossed his feet on the chair, "Continue to the second one." ”
"The so-called inclusion of hundreds of schools of thought is to open up my way for hundreds of schools of thought to contend, enlighten our people, and open up my way. Try to see that today's Guozijian deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected the way of heaven, and even the ten thousand horses and the family were dominant, and the ministers thought that it was definitely not the blessing of the Han Dynasty. ”
Dong Tianshu gushed endlessly: "Only the sea embraces all rivers to attract Confucianism, Legalism, soldiers, and Yin and Yang families...... If the theories of various schools are contending, a hundred flowers will bloom and the prosperous era is not far away!"
Ji Tianquan said hesitantly: "You also talk to me, and I also chatter, and you are not afraid of messing around when you say your own words?"
Dong Tianshu said confidently: "The minister only knows the truth, and the more he argues, the clearer it becomes!"
"Smack!" Ji Tianquan slapped the table and said, "The third!"
"Flowing water is not rotten, and the household hub is not beetle, and the current imperial court's meritocracy system may be fine within three generations, but there will be great trouble after three generations. Just look at the noble sons and daughters in the prison of the country today, Your Majesty thinks that in a few decades......, how many of them will be of great use?
Dong Tianshu paused, did not say the consequences directly, and continued: "The old minister implores Your Majesty to open Enke again above the Qingmei Club, collect students from the poor family for meritocracy, and select talents to ensure the prosperity of my Han Dynasty!"
Ji Tianquan was silent for a long time, subconsciously slapped his thigh, and said with a long breath: "Xiao Dong, you are a heart-wrenching word." ”
Dong Tianshu was startled and was just about to open his mouth to argue, when he heard Ji Chengche chant softly: "Ask the canal to be as clear as possible? ”
Ji Tianquan raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look at Ji Chengche and Lin Zongtang and said, "Do you think this third article can also be done?"
Lin Zongtang smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty can do it, and the third one can also be done." ”
"Lao Lin, your mother's slippery head!" Ji Tianquan scolded with a smile, and said seriously: "Xiao Dong, your first rule is to force the Heavenly Taoism to turn against Lao Tzu, and the second is to teach Lao Tzu to get along with himself, it's nothing." But what about the third one...... Hehe, you're instigating Lao Tzu to take those old brothers who fight the world with me shirtless!"
Dong Tianshu bowed and said, "Dare to ask Your Majesty whether you want to be the Lord of the Ages or the King of Eternity?"
"Oh?" Ji Tianquan asked with a smile: "What is there to say here? I'm a rough man, don't talk around the corner." ”
Dong Tianshu replied: "The so-called ancient lords and ministers have been able to rule the prosperous world together, regardless of the flood behind them;
Ji Tianquan asked rhetorically, "Which of these do you think I am?"
Dong Tianshu brushed his clothes and bowed again: "The minister's mind is clear, and he will never regret it!"
Ji Tianquan looked at Lin Zongtang again. Lin Zongtang said calmly: "There are still two people missing. ”
"Prime Minister Zhao Yishan, Taichang Qing's ancestor. Ji Tianquan said two names in one breath, stroked his head and said, "Dry!"
Dong Tianshu cried with joy when he heard this, and kowtowed: "The minister should be broken to repay His Majesty's kindness!"
Ji Tianquan waved his hand and said, "If you want to thank you, thank you Chengqing." Well, thank you to the Guardians. ”
Ji Chengche smiled and said, "Mr. Dong, you still need to be wronged to suffer a few more days in Guozijian." ”
Dong Tianshu hurriedly said: "Weichen is as willing as a glutton. ”
Ji Tianquan said: "Lao Lin, in the past few days, you have sent more people to protect Dr. Dong in secret." Cheng Cheng finally dug up a treasure for Lao Tzu, don't turn your head and be smashed. ”
Lin Zongtang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, isn't it time to change Dr. Dong's title?"
Ji Tianquan laughed and said, "Xiao Dong, you have to invite Lao Lin to drink when you turn around." Well...... What's the hell about this thing?"
Ji Chengche said: "I want to wronged Mr. Dong How about being a six-grade waiter first?"
Dong Tianshu was stunned, he is now the doctor of Zhengliupin, and if he is replaced by a waiter, he is far from the previous estimate.
After a little thought, his eyes lit up, and his heart thumped and he couldn't speak.
Ji Tianquan obviously had already discussed this matter with Ji Chengche and Lin Zongtang, and said: "Just be a servant! Lao Tzu will get you into the palace in three or two days, and it will be convenient to talk later." ”
Lin Zongtang said: "Your Majesty, the 'inner court' mentioned by His Royal Highness last night, and the clerical affairs can also be handled by Dong Shizhong. ”
"Inner Court?" Dong Tianshu looked at Ji Chengqing in confusion.
Ji Chengche smiled and said, "It's the place to help my father make a black pot on the back of a thug." ”
"Damn, could it be that Lao Tzu still lost you?" Ji Tianquan was obviously in a good mood, and gave Ji Chengche a slap in front of outsiders.
Dong Tianshu suddenly realized - what is the "inner court", that is, a ****** independent of the three princes and nine kings!
Think about the people who can enter the inner court in the future, Ji Chengqing, Lin Zongtang, and maybe Prime Minister Zhao Yishan and Taichang Qing, Fazu......
Dong Tianshu was surprised and delighted, knowing that he had risen to prominence and had already entered the core power circle of the Han Dynasty. Not to mention the service of the six products, even if you are not in the stream, you are willing.
What made him even more excited was that his lifelong ambition, full of talent, had finally come into use, and it was all because His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince had listened to one of his lessons. The so-called wonder of life is nothing more than this.
Ji Tianquan was extremely interested, and beckoned: "Xiao Dong, come over and tell me what is going on with your heavenly and human sympathy?"
"Obey the order!" Dong Tianshu hurriedly packed up his mind and sorted out his thoughts, and talked eloquently to Ji Tianquan and the others......
At that moment, the four of them talked thoroughly in Chongwen Hall until dusk, and Wu felt that he was still unfinished.
Ji Tianquan, Lin Zongtang and Ji Chengche are all equipped with superior cultivation, and they don't eat for three or five days.
Dong Tianshu is a scholar, although he is already so hungry that his chest is dizzy against his back, he is very energetic and does not feel tired.
Ji Tianquan heard his stomach gurgling, looked at the sky outside, and said with a smile: "Lao Tzu has to go home, otherwise God knows what kind of bird trouble will happen." Xiao Dong, let's talk again when you enter the palace in two days. These things have to be done step by step, and there is no hurry. ”
Dong Tianshu smiled and said: "The three strategies proposed by the minister have the meaning of first easy and then difficult, step by step. ”
"Cheng, you go to dinner first. Ji Tianquan stood up and saw Dong Tianshu away, turned around and walked to the back hall, and asked Ji Chengqing: "That mother-in-law looked for you yesterday, why didn't you tell me?"
Ji Chengqing said lightly: "There is no need. ”
"You kid is enough to plant, and after only a few days of coming back, he has become a well-known fierce god in Tiandu City, and everyone is afraid of ghosts. Clear, I'm afraid I owe you and your mother too much. ”
He spoke without scruples in front of Lin Zongtang, obviously trusting the latter.
Ji Chengche was silent for a moment, and said, "I just want to know what's going on with the attached Gu?"
Ji Tianquan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "If I knew, I would have killed it a long time ago." ”
Lin Zongtang opened his mouth and said: "The imperial doctor who is the most suspicious in this matter refused to admit a word until he died, and finally died of suicide. His Majesty had searched all over the palace eunuchs and guards, and in the end they were almost dead, but to no avail. ”
Ji Chengche shook his head and said, "Forget it, I want to go to worship my mother in two days, will you go?"
"Let's go together. Ji Tianquan's mood became low, and he said, "You beware of a little bit of the old miscellaneous hair of the Heavenly Daoist Sect, that is a bunch of uneasy and kind-hearted grandsons. Lao Tzu prepared a gift and brought it for me when the time came. ”
Ji Chengche nodded, stopped and watched Ji Tianquan go to the back door.
Lin Zongtang suddenly turned around and said, "Your Highness, thank you for the matter of Xiaohu." ”
"No thanks. Ji Chengche smiled, "There is also Ao Jiao's matter, you should have a headache." ”
Lin Zongtang said: "Ao Jiao is good, she is a good girl. ”
Ji Chengqing raised his sword eyebrows and said, "Okay, then I'll agree to you." ”
Lin Zongtang smiled and said nothing, Ji Tianquan interjected suddenly: "Boy, don't patronize helping people talk about matchmaking, when will you bring a daughter-in-law back to Lao Tzu?"
Ji Chengche rolled his eyes at him and said, "It's not enough that you have so many daughters-in-law?"
Ji Tianquan smiled and said, "Yes, that's my daughter-in-law, but is that your wife?"
Ji Chengche was speechless and snorted: "Don't forget what you said, if I like it, you can help me grab it all." ”
Ji Tianquan was stunned, and couldn't help laughing loudly: "Okay, don't talk big about you, kid, just tell Lao Tzu, who do you like?"
In the midst of laughter, he pushed the door open, leaving a curtain of sunset in the back hall.
Ji Cheng was silent for a long time, thinking of Tang Xue for no reason.
