After the emperor asked, Dongfang Shuo suddenly remembered a person, this person had taught Jasmine a lesson, and he was his fellow countryman, the master who had never met him.

He had a good plan: he wanted to recommend this person to the emperor, as soon as this person came, he was impassioned, and he talked a lot about the statecraft, and the emperor was happy to hear it, and he would definitely reverse the whole passive beating situation of my Dongfang Shuo family, the emperor loves talent, if he is happy, his attention is distracted, maybe he will no longer fight Jasmine's idea.

Thinking of this, Dongfang Shuo immediately replied: "The minister is busy on weekdays, and the lessons he usually teaches to Jasmine are all taught by my good friend, one of the thinkers of our Han Dynasty, the master father, who has traveled around many countries, has advanced ideas, and has a grand policy of governing the country!

The emperor said: "The person who can be admired by Lord Dongfang Shuo must be a genius, I must meet him!"

Dongfang Shuo gave a general introduction to the situation of the master father, the emperor was very surprised when he heard it, he immediately suspended the edict of Dongfang Shuo and his party, and changed the place, he wanted to secretly see the master father Yan and listen to the master's opinion.

At this time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty really urgently needed a thinker to give him theoretical support. After Dong Zhongshu's idea of respecting Confucianism was adopted by him, although he was criticized and dissatisfied by the empress dowager, the overall progress was good, and the ideological unity of the people throughout the country was gradually implemented, and the effect was good.

On the other hand, he felt that he still wanted to hear more passionate and thoughtful ideas and theories, which would have greater strategic significance for him to govern the country.

Although Master Father Yan studied Confucianism, he was not so interested in Confucianism, and his views were often satirized. In addition, he has a somewhat eccentric temper, which offends many people. He always felt that he was a person who had never met a talent, and he had not met the real master. He traveled all over the world, crisscrossing the north and the south, and it should be said that the master father Yan was a strategist and a master of vertical and horizontal arts! However, if he was a master of vertical and horizontal arts, wouldn't he be slapped in the face in front of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who respected Confucianism alone? Therefore, Dongfang Shuo only said that he was a master of thought, and did not emphasize that he was any other master.

The master father Yan came, and after meeting the emperor, the emperor asked as soon as he came up: "Keqing, is there a good way for me to govern the country?"

The Lord Father, who was nearly half a hundred years old, finally waited for the moment when the emperor summoned him! And he had been waiting for this for a long time. In his life, he was constantly excluded and ridiculed, and he was depressed. Today, I met the Holy One directly, and it was time for him to show his ambitions!

His heart was extremely excited, and he said to himself, you must remain calm, quiet, and peaceful at this time, so that your grand plan can be clearly explained, otherwise everything will be over again.

Thinking of this, he calmed down and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what is your biggest trouble?"

The emperor replied: "Huns!"

The master father said in a calm but firm tone: "No, the emperor's biggest worry should be the princes!"

The emperor was silent.

Seeing that the emperor was silent, he knew that he had hit the emperor's heart.

So he continued: "Your Majesty, do you want to implement the Tui En Order?"

The emperor asked, "What is the Tui En Order?"

The master father said: "I know that your biggest trouble, on the surface, you are a Xiongnu, but in fact you are a prince. Because the princes can unite at any time, you need to find an excuse to rebel and directly threaten your authority and throne. ”

The master paused for a moment, and the emperor immediately encouraged him and said, "You go on, I'm listening!"

Encouraged by the master's father, he began to make an impassioned exposition, which changed the fate of the entire Han Dynasty!

The Master Father continued:

"In the past, the places managed by the princes were only 100 li, the places were small, and the central government was easy to control. But now the princes are different: they manage dozens of cities and thousands of miles, and if they loosen their control, they will be arrogant, extravagant, and reckless, but if they are managed too tightly, their development will be hindered, and they are easy to unite against the emperor because of resentment. In the past, when we used the system to cut off these princes, their rebellious hearts would sprout. At that time, Chao Cuo wanted to "cut the feudal domain", use coercive force to abolish the vassal king, be a guide, and abolish the vassal king collectively, but it was easy to force the king to "jump over the wall in a hurry", and as a result, he was also killed, even if Chao Cuo died, the heart of these princes and vassal kings to rebel is still there!"

The emperor nodded frequently and asked, "What is Aiqing's good plan?"

The lord father was as imposing as a rainbow, and he said: "As far as I know, there are dozens of sons, grandchildren, and relatives of the princes, and these flesh and blood children of the princes do not even have a foot of canonization. Therefore, I suggest that the emperor order the princes to promote their personal favors and divide their children into liehous. In this way, these princes must be very willing, because the children have honor and interests, and will be filial to them, and they must be very happy and willing to carry it out. But if you think about it, the emperor thinks that in the name of giving grace to their children and relatives, in fact, they let their children and grandchildren divide up their land and power, thus greatly weakening the power of the princes and kings, and making them infighting, and you can easily recover these children when they are fighting among themselves. In this way, you can consolidate the need for centralized power in the central empire and avoid the possibility of provoking the princes to revolt. Once you are settled, your grand wish to dominate the world can be accomplished!"

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard this, he high-fived and applauded!

Dongfang Shuo, Wei Qing, and Huo Qubing stood aside, and when they heard the discussion of the master father, they also felt that this idea was really good, and they were quite convinced that the master father Yan! If the emperor adopted the "Tui En Order," then Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would be able to conquer the Xiongnu without much effort and without a fight, and the whole country would be at peace, so that the soldiers who were bent on defeating the Xiongnu could unite with each other and concentrate their efforts on dealing with the Xiongnu!

When the emperor asked them what they thought of the policy of governing the country of the lord and father, they all immediately said, "It is indeed a good idea! If it is carried out, it will definitely control the princes quietly, and it should be implemented immediately!"

The emperor met the master father Yan today, solved his long-term confidant trouble, and was very happy, and immediately gave the master father Yan as Langzhong (the emperor's adviser), and also rewarded Dongfang Shuo for his meritorious recommendation. The emperor was so happy, he didn't care so much about Jasmine.

The policy of governing the country of the master father was indeed greatly promoted and achieved great results later!

However, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were a little anxious, hoping that the emperor would continue Dongfang Shuo's investigation of the four apprentices, otherwise they would not dare to introduce the four apprentices into the secret training ground, which was a big deal!

When it was time for lunch, the emperor suggested that the meal should be eaten first, and then the affairs of Dongfang Shuo's family would be discussed in the afternoon!
