Chapter 19: The Millennium Plan (2)

Zhufu Yan is like an encyclopedia. He is familiar with the customs, people, geography, mountains, rivers, and bad policies of the Han Dynasty, which is amazing. In order to design an applicable strategy for the Han Dynasty, Zhou Yang got into the bamboo slips these days, and saw the bamboo slips in the mansion and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to read them again.

The number of bamboo slips I read is hard to imagine. The number of cars on the bus is not a problem, so I am not as thorough as Master Yan. Zhou Yang even found the books seized by Xiao He from the Qin treasury. It was very detailed and clear, but it was from decades ago and could not be used at all.

There is no detailed record of the Han Dynasty today. Zhou Yafu was good at fighting, but the prime minister did not do a good job.

"Sir is really good at calculating. With his talent, if you want to gain wealth, it is like taking things out of your pocket, how easy it is!"

If there is no details provided by Master Yan, Zhou Yang would formulate a good strategy for the Han Dynasty. I really don’t know when I will wait. He praised him: “I heard that King Liang sent people to visit you in Chang’an. Why don’t you join King Liang and would rather froze the streets?”

"Haha!" Lord's father Yan smiled: "Although King Liang had a bad idea, he could not succeed. Although he was a high-ranking and powerful position, he was just a prince. If the name was not correct, he would not be as good as the words. Even if the empress dowager supported him, he would not succeed! Besides, if he had a narrow-minded person, wouldn't the Han Dynasty be in danger? The most important thing for being a king is to measure his mind. King Liang lacked this point the most. Tiaohou was the only one who was in charge of the army of Wu and Chu. If he had fought against the army of Wu and Chu, wouldn't it ruin the future of the Han Dynasty? The King of Liang had made enemies with Tiaohou for so many years, and for so many years, he always thought about killing Tiaohou."

King Liang was powerful and talented, but he had no great ruthlessness, which was incomparable to Emperor Jing. Zhou Yang deeply agreed with this statement and nodded.

"A talented but unrestrained is the king who is wronged. The king who is wronged is not talented, his wisdom is too clever, his words are enough to pretend to be wrong, but he cannot praise his subordinates and live for himself. Therefore, the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed." Zhufu Yan's views are always different from others, but they have to convince: "If a king is not worthy, how can he tolerate others? Isn't the Han Dynasty dangerous?"

After a pause, the master Yan smiled and said, "When Wang Su is known for recruiting wise men, but are the people he recruited really wise men? Yang Sheng and Gongsun Gui like to conspire. Those who accomplish things must use conspiracies, but they cannot be mistaken for them. Although the generals and soldiers of the generals used conspiracies in this battle with the Huns, they were open conspiracies. Shanyu knew it was a plan, but he had to go because he had no choice. Conspiracies were the right way, and conspiracies could only be done one by one."

This is refreshing, but I have to agree that Zhou Yang used mostly conspiracy to deal with the Huns this year. The military minister Shanyu knew that it would be unfavorable to him, but after weighing the pros and cons, he had to fight like that, because the cost would be greater, and he could only take the minority of the two evils. This is the benefit of conspiracy.

In Zhou Yang's praise, Master Yan continued: "Mei Cheng, Zhuang Ji, Sima Xiangru, the articles are good, but they are not real famous scholars. As for Han Anguo, they are not satisfactory. The beautiful articles and glorious words have irreplaceable effects that people dare not ignore. However, no matter how good the article is, can it convince the powerful? Can the Xiongnu put down the scimitar? For the powerful, you have to use the law to bring it to you! For the Xiongnu, you have to use swords to defeat the Xiongnu!"

"Ha ha!"

Zhou Yang laughed loudly and was very happy: "A conversation with you is better than reading for ten years! Well said it! It is thorough and pointed out!"

"Thank you for your praise!" The master father Yan shook his head slightly and said, "The King of Liang wants to do great things, but he does not seek truth, and only invites false reputations. Therefore, he has made a prediction that he will not be able to accomplish great things. How can he commit himself to the King of Liang?"

If someone else is a different person, if you have no food to eat, you will be sent to the Liang Palace and survive the crisis. If you leave, you will not be hungry than to the Liang Palace. This is the integrity of a famous scholar and cannot be stigmatized. It is really admirable. Zhou Yang raised his thumb and praised: "Sir, I have ambition! I will come to the palace to meet the emperor."

"Greatly send the commander-in-chief!" The master Yan stood up and saluted Zhou Yang.

"What are you sending? You have to go to the palace with me." Zhou Yang said with a smile.

"Enter the palace? I'll enter the palace?" Master Yan was a little confused.

"Yes!" Zhou Yang nodded and said, "Mr. Master is so talented, how can he not become an official? If I don't recommend the gentleman to the emperor, I will be blind."

"The great commander is very kind, and Master Yan is very grateful." Master Yan bowed and said, "The great commander is willing to save his life. What I said is just to help the commander gain fame, not to advance."

"You are wrong." Zhou Yang shook his head and said with a solemn face: "I saved you because of my sincerity. If I fall in front of my mansion in hunger, how can I not save you? If I take your words and gain fame, wouldn't I be a villain? To borrow your words, a real man should gain fame and fortune, and he should take it himself. How can he ask you to give alms?"

A layer of mist appeared in the bright eyes of Master Yan, and his body was trembling.

"Besides, if a person like you is not listed in the court, wouldn't it be the loss of the soldiers?" Zhou Yang's tone was a little high: "The soldiers fought with the Huns, and the blood was flowing into a river and corpses were piled up like mountains, but the ministers in the court said that the Huns were terrifying and awe-inspiring. Even if the emperor was wise, it was difficult to guarantee that the army would be defeated. If there was a gentleman, the soldiers could fight with confidence."

When Qin Hui controlled the government affairs, Yue Fei was unjustly killed Fengboting. Since ancient times, there has been no government affairs that were controlled by the surrender faction and could still win a great victory. Even if there is, it was caused by accident.

"The great commander is kind to you, Master Yan will never forget you!" Master Yan turned over and bowed, and tears could no longer be held back, and finally burst out.

Over the years, he wanted to manage the world and the people, but he had no way out. Zhou Yang was willing to recommend him, so the matter was settled. With the priesthood of Zhou Yang, how could Emperor Jing not use the person he recommended?

The way out is right in front of you. The long-cherished wish of many years has finally been fulfilled. With the opportunity to show your ambitions, can Master Yan not be excited?

Zhou Yang helped up: "Mr. Master, Mr., don't thank me. If Mr. Master, thank me, if the soldiers are willing to thank me, when the soldiers are fighting in blood, you will say more for the soldiers, and it will be enough!"

"Woooooo!"

Master Yan cried so excitedly that he kept nodding.

Weiyang Palace, the Palace of Health.

Emperor Jing was wearing a Yanju suit, usually in deep clothes, and looked at Dou Ying kneeling on the ground. He smiled and was so happy that he became a family, as if there was a big happy event.

Emperor Jing looked at the monster, but Dou Ying was not nervous at all, and he smiled and let Emperor Jing look at it.

"Haha!" Emperor Jing first had a long list of happy smiles: "Dou Ying, Dou Ying, you finally figured it out. After so many years, you finally figured it out."

"Your Majesty, I'm confused!" Dou Ying kowtowed and apologized.

"Yes, you were confused before, but now you are a sensible person." Emperor Jing said with a smile: "You Dou Ying admire Mengchangjun and boast about your support. You have pride yourself on three thousand diners under your disciples. Do you know, among your diners, how many are illegal people? How many are you killing and robbing people? How many are you bullying good people?"

"I don't know!" Dou Ying had to answer truthfully.

He really never pursued this matter. As for raising scholars, if you investigate, you may go to another family and Dou Ying will have a bad reputation. Therefore, if you want to raise scholars, you cannot investigate them. Even if you want to investigate, it must be very secretive.

"You don't know, but I know. Ge Feng was borne three lives, desperate and desperate, and then he threw himself into your mansion and asked for your protection." Emperor Jing's face darkened and he said sternly: "There are 136 people who kill and rob. As for bullying and good, and those who have illegal things, everyone has it, it's just about the lightness and the heavyness."

Such accurate numbers were spit out of Emperor Jing's mouth, which had a great impact on Dou Ying, as if thunder roared in his ears, and cold sweat on his forehead instantly emerged, his body shaking, and he almost fell down: "Your Majesty, I am guilty!"

He held the floor with both hands, touched the ground with his forehead, and his body shivered slightly.

"The reason why I didn't touch them is to give you the face of Marquis Wei Qi. Who are you? You are my cousin, to quell the rebellion of the seven kingdoms and make great contributions." Emperor Jing's tone was a little high: "You are still the queen mother's nephew. If I touch you, the queen mother will definitely be angry. Therefore, I will endure it."

"Emperor..." At this moment, Dou Ying's shock was far beyond the description of his writing. Emperor Jing knew his affairs well, but he hadn't asked about it. How could he not be surprised?

"Get up!" Emperor Jing said kindly and comforted: "You are my cousin. If you can understand, I feel very comforted! Let him go to the past. However, these illegal people are no longer your disciples, so I don't have to give you any more face. I will order Zhidu to take people!"

"But with the Emperor's Holy Punishment." Dou Ying had just stood up and almost fell down.

"How did you figure it out and no longer raise a scholar?" asked Emperor Jing.

"Go back to the emperor, this is thanks to the Marquis of Polu." Dou Ying hurriedly replied, and then talked about the storm of raising scholars that day.

"Although Zhou Yang is young, he understands better than you. You have read less books on sages. He really read it in the belly of a dog." Emperor Jing said with a solemn face: "Dou Ying, I can't punish you, but I have to give you an errand. There are several families in your Dou family who have been named marquis, and there are many people who have raised scholars. Although there are not as many disciples as you, there are also many. They have more dirty things than you. You go and persuade them to stop raising scholars. Also, don't Li Qing have many disciples? You also want him to stop raising scholars. In Chang'an, there are many ministers and marquises who raise scholars. You go and tell them not to raise scholars again."

There are too many powerful families in Chang'an who raises scholars, and which minister has not raised scholars? If you want to find ministers who do not raise scholars, there are very few ministers. Zhou Yafu wants to calculate one, but now Zhou Yang wants to calculate one.

All of these ministers have great power behind them, with mixed connections and extremely complicated relationships. Emperor Jing asked Dou Ying to deal with this matter, which was to push him into the fire pit. Emperor Jing clearly stated that it would be more unlucky than punishing him. He would rather punish Emperor Jing than take on this job. But in this situation, could he not take it?

"No!" Dou Ying's voice was very low.

"Then I'll give you a blessing." Emperor Jing smiled, not at all: "You have to donate 200,000 yuan to help military supplies, I can't ask for your money. If this is the case, I will reward you with another 200,000 yuan!"

Two hundred thousand coins were a heavy reward. After Zhou Yang made such great achievements, Emperor Jing only rewarded 300 thousand coins. If Dou Ying had been very happy in the past, but now, this is not a reward, it is purely a reward.

"Your Majesty, I dare not receive the reward! Please rest assured, I will definitely do this!" Dou Ying was busy kowtowing.

Emperor Jing did not have a clear order, but he understood the meaning very clearly. This matter is only allowed to succeed, not fail.

"I believe you will be loyal to the king's affairs! Go down!" Emperor Jing smiled slightly, waved his hand, and Dou Ying had to bow and say goodbye to retreat.

Looking at Dou Ying's back, Emperor Jing suddenly smiled, his tone was a little high: "Chuntuo, come here! I want to drink it!"

Chuntuo was busy delivering the wine. Emperor Jing took it and drank it beautifully in one sip, making him laugh even more happily.

"Your Majesty, why is it so happy?" Chuntuo looked at Emperor Jing's joy and made a note of fun.

"Chuntuo, this raising scholars is harmful!" Emperor Jing smiled happily, his eyebrows turned upwards: "Not only does it cost money and food, but it also destroys the law. I have been determined to cure it, but there is no reason. The matter of raising scholars has been hundreds of years. From Mengchangjun to now, how many people have raised scholars? The turmoil of raising scholars is prevalent, and the law is very bad, but many people are proud of it. I want to do it and dare not do it, so I have to endure it."

As soon as he stretched out the wine glass, Chuntuo poured it, Emperor Jing drank it dry, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Zhou Yang's words made Mengchangjun's body look so complete. Mengchangjun is the founder of the raising scholars. He scolded him, just to scold Dou Ying and others who raised scholars, so I had a verbal verbal slaughter. Just as Dou Ying realized that he would dismiss the disciples. How could I not let him deal with this matter?"

"Miracle and wonderful!" Chuntuo praised him endlessly. Dou Ying was famous for raising scholars. He suddenly stopped raising scholars. If he had to manage this matter, would it be bad?

"This is not wonderful, but Zhou Yang's words are so wonderful." Emperor Jing smiled at Chuntuo: "Do you know what Zhou Yang said? Zhou Yang said: Everyone in the world said that Mengchangjun can get scholars, and the soldiers returned to him because of the reason, and the soldiers rely on their strength to escape from the Qin Dynasty of tigers and leopards. Alas! Mengchangjun's heroic ears are not enough to say that he can get scholars? Otherwise, if he is strong in Qi, he can get a soldier, so he can face the south and control Qin. How can he take advantage of the power of chickens and dogs? The reason why this scholar does not come to the door when the chickens and dogs are crowing and dogs are not here."

"Miaomiaomiao!" Amid Emperor Jing's praise, he drank several cups.

The harm of raising a scholar is very great, and it is impossible for the emperor to tolerate it. If he wants to do it, he has a good reputation and cannot do it. It is really difficult not to do it and it poses a threat to the imperial power.

It is precisely because the harm of raising scholars is too great that emperors cannot tolerate it. Although Mengchangjun, Chunshenjun, Pingyuanjun and Xinlingjun have false reputations, they are mostly taboos by kings. The reason why the kings of Qi, Zhao, Wei and Chu did not touch them was that they did not dare.

In Qin, it was a different scene. Wei Ran kept thousands of guests. If he hadn't been the uncle of King Zhao of Qin, he would have destroyed him long ago. Although he had not been destroyed, he would have made things difficult for him from many parties, which made him very sad.

Lu Buwei bought the country and later Qin Shihuang. He made great contributions. However, he raised too many scholars, and Qin Shihuang was also very afraid and finally killed him directly.

Tian Fu in the Han Dynasty raised thousands of diners, and Emperor Wu of Han gritted his teeth whenever he mentioned it. However, Tian Fu was his uncle and Emperor Wu of Han could not do anything. Once Tian Fu died, Emperor Wu of Han would not be ruthless and his disciples would be in great trouble. Guo Jie had a close connection with Tian Fu, which was an important reason why Emperor Wu of Han killed Guo Jie.

Raising scholars was a major disaster in the Han Dynasty. Emperor Jing had long wanted to do it, but in this era of using illegal people as scholars, he could not find a reason. Now, Zhou Yang's "Reading the Biography of Mengchangjun" was released, and it was a good reason to scold Mengchangjun in a state of utmost condition.

If this matter is done, the Han Dynasty will lose one major problem. How could Emperor Jing not be happy?

Zhou Yang was just forcing Ge Feng and the others to help him, so he sacrificed Wang Anshi's famous works, but he didn't expect that it would have such a miraculous effect.

"Emperor, Zhou Yang is looking for a meeting outside the hall." Chuntuo reported to Emperor Jing.

"Zhou Yang? Haha!" Zhou Yang said, solving a problem for Emperor Jing. Emperor Jing was feeling happy. When he heard Zhou Yang invite him to see him, he smiled happily: "Call him in and drink!"

Chuntuo responded and hurriedly summoned Zhou Yang, and when he came back, he was busy pouring wine.

"My memory, Zhou Yang, has met the emperor." Zhou Yang stepped forward and bowed.

"Forget it!" Emperor Jing smiled and looked at Zhou Yang, and said happily: "Zhou Yang, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you look good! It seems that you have almost finished your fatigue, so it's time to move. Can you start the training of troops?"

"As long as the emperor issues an order, I will do it." Zhou Yang was very enthusiastic and said nothing. He trained the cavalry as soon as possible and defeated the Huns as soon as possible!

"Come on, drink this glass of wine!" Emperor Jing took the wine from Chuntuo and handed it to Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang took it in his hand and was a little surprised: "Your Majesty, you are..."

"Zhou Yang, you scolded Mengchangjun very well!" Emperor Jing kept laughing: "I wanted to deal with this matter, but I had no excuses. I was right when you scolded me. Mengchangjun, who has been offering sacrifices for hundreds of years, has made those who support scholars yearn for it. For many years, many people have followed me. It is difficult for me to do this! As soon as your shocking words are spoken, can I still deal with them unpretentiously?"

"This..." It seemed that Zhou Yang really couldn't imagine that there was such a good thing without thinking about it at that time.

"Come on, do it!" Emperor Jing raised his glass to Zhou Yang and drank it dry in one sip.

"Damn!" Zhou Yang drank it in one sip, and was about to recommend the Lord's Father Yan, but with this matter, he saved a lot of verbal talk: "Your Majesty, I am here this time to return the order to the emperor. The emperor asked me what the Han Dynasty did, which is the most beneficial. I have already thought about it."

"Oh!" Emperor Jing was interested and urged: "Speak quickly."

"The emperor has an order, and I should follow it. However, I want to talk about the second thing first." Zhou Yang did not immediately speak, but recommended the master Yan: "Your Majesty, I have known someone recently, and his talent is extraordinary. If the emperor takes a moment to let him speak all his words, it will be of great benefit to the Han Dynasty."

"You want to raise talents?" Emperor Jing was a little surprised, and then he was happy: "Okay, okay! You can think of too much money, you can think of too much trouble, but you can't think of too much talent! The more talents, the better! Zhou Yang, not long after you were appointed as a marquis, I was very relieved to recommend talents to the country. I recruit them in!"

"Thank you for your praise!" Zhou Yang thanked him politely.

Under Chuntuo's guidance, the Lord's Father Yan quickly walked up, came close to him, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Emperor Jing and said, "Caomin Gongfu Yan meets the emperor!"

Emperor Jing deals with the support of the scholars, and the master Yan's several strategies, there will be a plan to crack down on the powerful. As long as he says it, Emperor Jing will definitely allow it. There is no problem with this recommendation, and Zhou Yangda is relieved.

However, the development of the matter was beyond Zhou Yang's expectation. The smile on Emperor Jing's face suddenly disappeared, with a solemn face staring at Master Yan, and shouting: "You are the poor man who paints pictures of King Liang and searches everywhere, Master Yan? Do you think the Liang King Temple is small and then turn to my court?"
