Chapter 765
"Head of the country, wait a minute!"

Just when Lu Bu was ready, Zhuge Liang shouted in a hurry. He naturally knew that Lu Guozhang was also on his side, but the key problem was this. He just wanted to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the new official system with himself. In this case, if he did not give an explanation and let Lu Bu forcefully oppress him, the matter would deteriorate.

Since it is a normal discussion, it is best not to use force first.

Otherwise, wouldn't it make it seem like the new official system is not as good as the original one, and the only way to silence others is through intimidation?

Zhuge Liang thought so, so when he found out that Lu Bu had a plan to come forward to argue, he immediately walked out, looked at the mighty Lu Guozhang in front of him, and said with a smile: "Guo Zhang, what you are doing now is what Zhuge Liang is doing now." You asked about the advantages and disadvantages of official positions, I am the one who proposes new strategies, and it is most appropriate for me to answer, as the head of the country, he is in charge of the safety of Luoyang inside and outside, and it is really inappropriate to participate in this dispute."

When Lu Bu heard this, he frowned and looked at the emperor above.

Liu Xi shook his head slightly, but said nothing.

Lu Bu returned to his position, half-closed his eyes, and had no intention of making a move anymore. As for Zhuge Liang, he was also relieved, not only him, but everyone else. Zhuge Liang laughed and asked questions just now. The one in front of him, after Lu Bu's intimidation, the arrogance of these people has disappeared, and now, his eyes are no longer so calm.

"It's thanks to you, an important minister in the temple, that you can figure out the connection between the system and the capable ministers. According to the words of the public, there are many famous ministers in the three princes and nine ministers. Could it be that before that, there have been no outstanding talents? Hahaha, Such stupid words, I really don’t know how you say it, it’s ridiculous and generous, I don’t even bother to argue with you, there is a son in my family called Zhan, you can ask him to compete and discuss with me, it’s really hard for you.”

As Zhuge Liang said, he even bowed to the man, as if apologetic.

That Yilang's face turned red immediately, his eyes seemed to be congested with blood, and he was speechless.

"Mr. Zhuge, what we are discussing is a new system. Please don't say anything else, Mr. Zhuge. If you dare to ask your Excellency, this new system has never been implemented anywhere. It is used in temples rashly. If something goes wrong, your lord But can you afford it?" Shaofu Guo Tu suddenly asked.

Zhuge Liang asked with some doubts: "Guo Jun, what you said makes me a little confused. What mistakes can be caused by changing the official system? Oh! I understand! Guo Jun means that if the official system is changed , Your Excellency is going to rebel?"

Guo Tu turned pale in shock, looked at Zhuge Liang, and said angrily: "Don't spit blood, why did I say something like that? Are you threatening me?!"

"No, it's not that I'm threatening you, but you're intimidating me. In today's temples, except for you, there are all talented and loyal talents. I don't think it will affect the temple reform. To them, and you said something like this, saying it was a mistake, isn’t it threatening me, or even the officials, threatening Your Majesty?!!!”, Zhuge Liang suddenly amplified his voice.

"You!! This!!" Guo Tu trembled, but he was unable to speak.

He quickly looked at the Son of Heaven, and said: "Your Majesty, I have no such intentions, and I ask your Majesty to learn from you!!"

Liu Xi didn't rush to speak, but just nodded towards him.

Guo Tu's heart still couldn't settle down. Looking at Zhuge Liang in front of him, his heart was full of grief and indignation. He didn't expect that he was forced to this point by a junior today. Attacks are almost always aimed at the most deadly point, which makes everyone a little scared. If you lose in an argument with others, you will lose face at most. If you lose in an argument with Zhuge Liang, you will go to the court, which is a bit scary.

Zhuge Liang looked at the crowd, and they didn't dare to speak in a hurry for a moment. With one person's body, they shocked all the officials in the temple. Of course, this is also because Sangong didn't take the lead, otherwise, Zhuge Liang would have been overwhelmed by the sea of ​​people. At this time, another minister said with a smile: "What Mr. Zhuge said is not bad. Of course, the new system will have to wait until it is implemented to see the advantages and disadvantages."

"However, this new system makes me a little puzzled." The person who spoke seems to be under Sikong's command, but Zhuge Liang can't remember his name clearly. He only knows that although this person is under Sikong's command, he has a close relationship with Situ. The relationship with Sikong is not very good, and he has a very high status in Sikong's mansion, and he even emptied Liu Bei at first, but now he is firmly suppressed by Liu Bei.

Zhuge Liang frowned, thinking about his name, seems to be called Xu You?
The scribe stroked his long beard and pondered: "In the temple, there are all virtuous talents, but in the local area, they are misleading, and it is difficult to distinguish. The power of state pastors was originally implemented for ten years. You want to take it back, but now, you want to make the state shepherd a permanent system. In this case, the state shepherd is like a local prince. Even if you don’t give military power, you can still raise soldiers with financial resources. This move is not digging Is it the cornerstone of a great man?"

"Oh, of course, as a foreign relative, Mr. Zhuge would not do such a thing. What's more, Mr. Zhuge is also an official of the temple, not a local official. Doing so will not benefit Mr. Zhuge, right?" , Xu You asked with a smile.

"Hehehe, he is a local official, what kind of temple official?" Someone suddenly shouted.

"Oh?" Xu You's eyes widened, and he asked suspiciously: "Is he a magistrate?? Then this", he only spoke halfway, and stopped talking. Facing his challenge, Zhuge Liang did not There is no panic, such a crappy divorce plan, how can it be impossible for the emperor to doubt himself, after all, the emperor also knows that he is just the spokesperson who was pushed out, mainly made by Guo Jia and Xun Yu, and Guo Jia cannot be said Do you want to rebel locally? ?

Of course, the possibility of this cannot be ruled out. In Guo Jia, he was taken away by the embroidered clothes envoy several times because he shouted for treason, but at those times it was because he had given up too much.

Liu Xi was still speechless. Today, Emperor Xiaokang was personally taught by Emperor Xiaoxian, and Emperor Xiaoxian was the most impatient. Most of the time, he would give orders impatiently, or put forward directly by himself, so that others would not have the opportunity to refute. Different, in the temple, his temperament is more like that of Emperor Xiaokang, extremely patient, and he never speaks easily, always waiting for the officials to discuss something similar before expressing his approval.

Zhuge Liang said, "What Xu Jun said is not bad."

"However, state herdsmen can also be restrained by law, and the servants can supervise them instead."

"Mr. Zhuge, you are not the official of the temple. You were the state shepherd of one place a month ago, not the nine ministers of the temple. The temple discusses politics. As for the locality, how can you intervene as a state shepherd of this place?!" The person in question is Chen Gong.

Ever since, under the leadership of Xu You, many temple veterans began to attack Zhuge Liang verbally. The chaos in the temple was extremely chaotic. Xu You was still too young with a smile on his face. How can you resist me alone? Among them, Feng Ji, Guo Tu, Xu You, Chen Gong, Wang Xiu, Kuai Yue, Yin Ji and other officials in the temple, which one can be worse than you Zhuge Liang.
The temple officials of this generation are indeed the most outstanding, and it is precisely because of this that it is surprisingly difficult to suppress the entire temple. Zhuge Liang still did not panic, but he never thought about what Xu You mentioned He was about to explain that question, when Xun Yu who was at the side suddenly came out and looked at the crowd.

These people who were disapproving of Zhuge Liang all put away their smiles, and their faces gradually became serious. Xun Yu looked at the crowd and asked with a smile: "Masters, why do you embarrass the younger generation? Why don't you let me explain these problems?" .”

"Duke Xun, this is Zhuge's proposal, what does it have to do with Duke Xun?"

"Hey, this new system, I think it's good, and the local state pastoral system, I think it's also good. As for what you said, the power of state pastoral, haha, it's very simple Your Excellency. In the near future, I will preside over the Luoyang sub-county Suddenly, I got enlightened that the state of the world may be possible, too large a state and county is not beneficial, but subdividing it is beneficial to the temple and the locality."

"Dividing the original state into two states, or even three states, is good for controlling local officials and even the efficiency of local affairs. The state pastoral system can also be resolved. What do you think?" Xun Yu asked slowly road.

Xu You stared at him for a long time, then nodded slightly and said, "That's right."

Compared with Zhuge Liang's sophistry, Xun Yu is another extreme. If you have a problem, I will solve it for you directly. If you continue to ask, what problem do you have?
Xu You looked at the few people around him. In fact, they were not all in the same group. On weekdays, there were many quarrels and conflicts between them. As for the new system, not all of them were opposed to it. The few people still have worries in their hearts, for fear that they will not have their place in the new official system. In recent years, the number of candidates in the Taixue has continued to increase, and there are countless people waiting to take their places.

There was another moment of silence in the temple.

"Since Sangong has agreed!! Then I, Yushitai, have no objection!!! Just do what Zhuge Jun said!!!" Zhang Fei yelled loudly, listening to his voice, many ministers They nodded their heads one after another, "Yes, Sangong has agreed, this new system, maybe you can try it."

Driven by Zhang Fei, a group of supporters of the new system quickly appeared among the officials. They began to clamor and talk about the advantages of the new system. Zhang Fei looked at Zhuge Liang and nodded. It has been activated, and everything is moving in a good direction. It seems that today's matter is about to be completed!Zhang Fei was ecstatic in his heart, but he didn't show it.

Xu You's face was ashen, and he said nothing.

"Then, what should we do with the Sangong and the Baiguan? Who will select the Baiguan in this new system? What is the basis? What is the standard?"

"If you, Zhuge Liang, choose, dare to ask, what qualifications do you have to be able to choose the officials of the temple?"

A handsome young scribe came out from among the crowd. His face was full of strong confidence in himself. He stood around Xu You and other officials and looked at Zhuge Liang. He looked young, but , but his words were full of arrogance and disdain. It seemed that he even looked down on Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang didn't recognize this person. He squinted his eyes and asked suspiciously: "I don't know who you are?? What position do you have? I don't know?"

"Yang Xiu, a doctor of classics, has met Mr. Zhuge."
