One thousand five hundred fifty-two

Back then, Zhuge Jin, who was named after Guo Peng, first to become a member of Guo Peng, only entered the Guo Wei Group as a surrendered person in Xuzhou. There was no outstanding point in the horizontal and vertical way.

If you really want to be outstanding, he is not as outstanding as his younger brother Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang was considered the first top scholar in the Wei Empire. He had a good resume and was quite beautiful. Zhuge Jin was only valued by everyone since he became the Minister of Agriculture. Before that, he was not at all unrestrained.

As a result, once you enter the house, you can get such treatment?

Many families are actually staring at the location of Guo Chengzhi's wife, and many enthusiasts have also listed the forms and tried to list all the families that meet the requirements.

For example, the Cao family and the Xiahou family who were the first to raise an army with Guo Peng, which was of great help to Guo Peng, so they must be among them.

The Cai family, Guo Peng's most important benefactor's family, and the queen of the second-generation emperor Guo Jin, is unknown to choose this time.

The remaining ones such as the Zhang Zhao family, the Zhao Yun family, the Li Dian family, the Guan Yu family, etc., are all listed among them, and the Zhuge family is also among them. This is because the emperor's special care for Zhuge Jin, they are barely listed in the last place.

Everyone is considering families that hold important political and military power. Although the Zhuge family has been in good momentum recently, it has a shallow foundation and is not experienced enough, so it can only be ranked last.

Unexpectedly, it was this Zhuge family that was not senior enough and was not favored by everyone that won the final victory and was chosen by the emperor to become the family of the crown prince's wife.

For a time, officials went to Zhuge Jin's mansion to congratulate him. Zhuge Jin's mansion was crowded with people, and there were many cars and horses on the street in front of the door, almost blocking the traffic throughout the street.

Zhuge Jin was originally very popular, even if he was a good man, no one hates him, and now he is even more popular with him. All kinds of gift-giving people almost squeezed out his living room.

It has to be said that officials' political sense has always been so sensitive.

Zhuge Jin felt a little uncomfortable, but also felt comfortable from the bottom of his heart - how could anyone not like being praised?

When the gate of Zhuge Jin's mansion was crowded, some people changed their minds when they saw that they could not squeeze into Zhuge Jin's mansion, and remembered that Zhuge Jin and two younger brothers were also officials in the court.

So they immediately turned around and headed to Zhuge Liang's mansion and Zhuge Jun's mansion.

Even if you can't curry favor with Zhuge Jin and curry favor with Zhuge Jin's two younger brothers, wouldn't it mean that you would indirectly curry favor with Zhuge Jin?

Hehe, I'm such a clever little ghost.

As a result, the doorsteps of Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun were blocked.

When the Zhuge family's three sons successfully became the focus of Luoyang, Guo Peng called Guo Chengzhi to Taishan Hall.

Guo Chengzhi didn't know why Guo Peng called him, but he still obediently came to Taishan Palace.

When he arrived at Mount Tai, Guo Chengzhi saw Guo Peng sitting in a small pavilion feeding fish.

Many times when he came to Mount Tai to pay homage to Guo Peng, he saw Guo Peng feeding fish here.

So he leaned over.

"Big Father, I'm here."

"Here is Chengzhi coming?"

Guo Peng smiled at Guo Chengzhi and pointed to the location beside him: "Come on, sit here and feed the fish with me."

This is not a rare thing. Guo Peng often asked Guo Chengzhi to accompany him to feed the fish. Guo Chengzhi didn't care, so he walked over and sat next to Guo Peng, and took a piece of fish food handed over by Guo Peng.

Looking at Guo Chengzhi, who had lost the youth's tenderness and a little more steady, Guo Peng smiled.

After returning to Luoyang, Guo Chengzhi was first named the crown prince, and then followed Guo Jin to observe politics and accepted Guo Jin's personal guidance on politics.

A few months ago, Guo Jin felt that Guo Chengzhi had almost mastered the general principles of governance, so he threw Guo Chengzhi into the cabinet according to the method of Guo Peng's training, and asked Man Chong to take Guo Chengzhi to run errands, so that he could familiarize himself with the rules of the imperial administrative operation from scratch.

First, learn about the work procedures of the emperor from the cabinet and then to the ministers of various departments, feel the process and difficulty of uploading and issuing government orders, and then do other things after you are fully familiar with them.

Before becoming an emperor, you must make clear the service procedures of the entire court and even the local government. Only after you succeed to the throne can you be targeted and not be blinded easily.

Over the past few years, Guo Chengzhi has lost his youthful ignorance and has begun to become a little calmer.

This change is of course gratifying.

"I heard that you have been sent to the cabinet by your father in recent days. The Prime Minister asked you to be responsible for running errands. How are you doing? Are you tired?"

Guo Chengzhi shook his head.

"I am indeed tired, but compared to those twenty days in Yunzhou, the cabinet's errands were tired, but there was not that much pressure."

"Well, the cabinet has a lot of government affairs, and it is necessary to contact and contact various departments, and run errands from morning to night, which is very tired. However, here we can have a good understanding of how the government affairs of the court were issued from the emperor to the specific execution of orders. It is a very important learning process."

Guo Peng nodded: "Your father was also placed in the cabinet by me for a while, and after studying for a while, he ran errands well, and was very clear about the government affairs of the upper and lower levels. I put him in another position. After you learn something here, you will also go to other positions."

Guo Chengzhi nodded slowly.

"The grandson will definitely not let down the expectations of his eldest father and father."

"That's good."

Guo Peng smiled and said, "Travel more, hold more positions, and learn more things. You will definitely be able to use them in the future. Each department has its own twists and turns, and the unspoken rules hidden under the surface. If you understand these clearly, you can deal with the ministers relatively easily as an emperor."

After patting Guo Chengzhi on the shoulder, Guo Peng sighed.

"As these days, as long as I stay in the palace, besides writing, the most thing I do is sit here to feed fish. Think about the past. Perhaps I am getting older and becoming more and more nostalgic, and it is easier to remember the past.

This was not the case more than ten years ago. At that time, I was full of thoughts about the future, and how to bring better changes to the Wei State, make the Wei State stronger, have a longer life, and are busy all day long, and have no time to nostalgia.

When I really did everything I could, letting Wei State go far beyond the Qin and Han dynasties, I had free time to sit here, and then I unconsciously began to think of the past, how I got to where I was young and when I was young."

Guo Peng broke a small piece of fish food and threw it into the pond, splashing a small splash of water.

Guo Chengzhi blinked.

"The grandson thought that what the eldest father had done since the rebellion was something that no one could reproduce."

"I feel that way too."

Guo Peng smiled and said, "Even if I let myself go back to the next time forty years ago, I feel that it is impossible for me to reproduce my way of reviving my uprising completely according to everything in the past. There are too many coincidences, luck, and too many incredible things.

Your grandfather was just a county magistrate of the former Han Dynasty, and I was just the son of a county magistrate. The destruction of the Guo family, without the support of the family, how could he defeat the sons of the three princes of the fourth generation and reach his current position?"

"The great father has achieved martial ethics and morals, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu is so fierce that he is weak on the inside, so he has suffered this defeat."

Guo Chengzhi, who had learned enough history, replied naturally.

"Writing and martial virtues are achieved? Hahahaha, Chengzhi, there are only two of us here. Some words come out of my mouth and into your ears. Do you want to know why I can defeat Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu?"

Guo Peng looked at Guo Chengzhi.

"Why?"

"Chengzhi, the most fundamental reason why I can defeat Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu and establish a foundation is that I regard all the people of the world as human beings."

Guo Chengzhi frowned.

"The big father means..."

"It's the literal meaning. I treat them as human beings. The entire Wei State has more than 80 million people, all of whom are people, and they are exactly the same people, and there is no difference."

Guo Chengzhi seemed to have some understanding, but also some doubts.

"Dafather said that all sentient beings in the world are the same?"

"Well, that's what it means. I think the people in the world are no different from those of us, they are all the same people."

Guo Peng looked at Guo Chengzhi and asked, "What do you think? Do you have a difference between the people and us?"

Guo Chengzhi thought for a moment and felt that Guo Peng’s question had a deeper meaning.

"If we talk about differences, there are certainly some, but if we say that we are completely different, it may not be necessary. The teachers in the Imperial Academy once said that we are all born and raised by our parents, and we are all like this, eating, drinking water, and living. If we say that they are exactly the same, it is not entirely true. The people are just producing, and we need to be managed and ranked above them."

Guo Peng smiled.

"Yes, the difference is here, but Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu don't look at this matter the same as you."

"ah?"

"Chengzhi, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and the group of scholars represented by them did not regard the people as the same as them. To be precise, they did not regard the people as human beings, and in their eyes the people were like cows and horses.

Even because of the large number, the status of the people is not as good as that of the cattle and horse. The cattle and horse can do more work and are more productive. Therefore, in their opinion, the people are not as valuable and useful as the cattle and horse, and are not as good as the cattle and horses to treat the people as well as the cattle and horses.”

"Is this...a thing like this?"

"Isn't that true?"

Guo Peng sighed: "So, no one has ever really taken the people in mind whether it is Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, or the group of scholars like them. They think they are human beings, and the people are similar to those of cattle and horses.
