Enlightenment begins with the consecration of God

Chapter 288 Tai Shibo

King Qi heard this and said, "It's simple!"

He then looked at the officials in the hall, and said: "I want to promote the historiography of Daoist leaders in Qi State, so I set up a historian, called Taishiling!"

"Who is willing to be the first Taishi Ling?"

His Highness and the others suddenly heard this, but did not react for a while.I don't know what kind of official position this Taishiling is.

Today's banquet was attended by all civil and military officials from the Manchu Dynasty.When King Qi was talking to Yang Tuo, someone naturally greeted Xu Xing and Bian Que, and they also enjoyed the enthusiasm of everyone.

The banquet was supposed to be a place of relaxation and freedom, but when they heard King Qi's question suddenly, everyone hadn't reacted yet.

King Qi was taken aback when he saw this, and then he woke up.He laughed a few times, and said: "Now there is a historian, Taishiling, who is in charge of documents, records historical events, and compiles history books."

These few items are Taishi Ling's job. When it came to this, King Qi paused for a while, and continued: "He is also in charge of national classics, astronomy and calendar, and is in charge of sacrifices, etc."

King Qi added a few powers to Taishi Ling, otherwise, this official position would seem a bit noble.

While everyone was thinking about it in their hearts, King Qi said slowly: "The major affairs of the country are sacrifices and military affairs. The Taishi makes the officials prominent, and he should be the Shangqing!"

Following King Qi's words, there was a buzzing sound in the hall.All of a sudden, the interest of the officials soared.

No matter what power this Taishiling finally holds, the position of Shangqing is enough to explain everything.

Seeing the expressions of everyone in the audience, King Qi showed a satisfied expression, and said to Yang Tuo: "Master Daoist, how good is this?"

Yang Tuo also nodded in satisfaction. The higher Qi Wang promoted Tai Shiling's official position, the stronger the competitiveness of historiography.

However, the position of Shangqing still excludes most ministers.Shangqing is basically the highest rank in the country, so people from the two classes of scholars and officials are basically excluded.

You can't go up that many levels at once.

And they are officials of the Shangqing, this new official position is not so attractive to them.

In the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, only Zhongqing and Xiaqing are really capable of competing for this position.

Soon, several people came out and said: "I am willing to share the worries for Your Majesty!"

Looking at the few people in the hall, King Qi thought for a while, and handed over the arrangement to Yang Tuo: "Taoist, look, who can take on this important task?"

Yang Tuo also looked at a few people. These people can be mixed up to Qing's level, and they are not lacking in ability and knowledge.

However, their personalities are very different.There are those who are smooth in dealing with things, those who have a sharp style, and those who are loyal and resolute.

People with different personalities do the same thing, and the results must be different.

As far as recording history is concerned, those who deal with things smoothly are definitely not as good as those who are loyal and resolute.For example, the king has a bad thing, do you remember it or not?

Those who are smooth in dealing with things may find a way to get over it, even if the records are beautified history.

For the official historian, it must be more suitable for a loyal, honest, stubborn and resolute person.

However, people's hearts are unpredictable, and Yang Tuo can't judge what a person is like just by observing.

However, combined with appearance and conversation, there will always be a general impression.Yang Tuo looked at several people, and among them, there was one who seemed honest.

However, there have never been those who are loyal and firm.Yang Tuo opened his Dharma eyes, and looked at him with the method of looking at Qi.

Through contact with Confucius, Yang Tuo also learned a lot about Haoran Zhengqi.This aura of grandeur does not necessarily come from reading books well.

It also needs the unity of knowledge and action to be feasible.Anyone who possesses awe-inspiring righteousness is a person who truly possesses morality.

Yang Tuo used the method of looking at the qi to observe whether a few people possessed the awe-inspiring aura.

Looking at it this way, it turned out that this seemingly loyal person had even more awe-inspiring spirit in his heart.From this point of view, he must not be the kind of duplicity.

Having made a decision in his heart, Yang Tuo pointed at him and said, "This person is very good!"

King Qi looked in the direction of Yang Tuo's finger, saw the person he was pointing at, and said with a smile, "So it's Cai Bo!"

King Qi introduced Yang Tuo: "This man is the eldest in the family, and he is called Uncle Cai. Because he is from Shangcai, he is called Uncle Cai!"

"He has excellent knowledge and character, but there is one thing that is not very good, that is, he is too stubborn!"

"If his personality changes, he won't just be a servant. Do you want to change someone?"

"Zhongqing's Shenbo application is very good. He handles things with reason and evidence, is clear in organization, and has a steady style of work, which wins my heart!"

Hearing this, Yang Tuo looked at Cai Bo again. Instead of feeling bad, he felt that this person would be a qualified historian.

If you are stubborn in other positions, you may not get along well with others.But as a historian, it is the best quality.

Only stubborn people can record the truth of history in the history books stroke by stroke.

Leave the most authentic history for the human race, and reduce the impact of the external environment on its virtue.

Yang Tuo shook his head and said, "Uncle Cai is very good, and he can take up the post of Taishi Ling."

King Qi saw that Yang Tuo had already been selected, so he stopped talking.Immediately said: "Pass down the decree, seal the minister, Cai Bo, as the order of the Taishi, and advance to the Shangqing!"

Down below, Cai Bo quickly kowtowed and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will definitely not accept your majesty's trust again!"

Cai Bo received the award, but his face was calm, and he didn't see anything unusual at all.

On the other hand, the rest of the people on the side showed a bit of envy on their faces.

This Cai Bo, from Xiaqing directly to Shangqing, was promoted two ranks, which is still very rare in the imperial court.

After King Qi finished speaking, he looked at Yang Tuo and asked, "Does the Taoist priest have any other orders?"

Yang Tuo thought for a while, and said, "Cai Bo, since you are the Taishi Ling, you are the first official historian. Why don't you take Taishi as your surname?"

Cai Bo was taken aback when he heard the words, he didn't expect that the Taoist priest would give him a surname.He hesitated for a moment.

Seeing this, King Qi agreed, "That's right, that's right, Taishi is a good surname, why don't you call him Taishi Bo!"

Originally Cai Bo hadn't made up his mind yet, but King Qi said so, how could he refuse.

What's more, it is also an honor for the king to bestow a surname.From then on, he didn't have to use the land as his surname, but had his own surname.

Cai Bo, now called Tai Shibo.Tai Shibo had no choice but to thank him and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty and Taoist priest, Tai Shibo is terrified!"

King Qi ordered: "Get up now. From today on, you can record history and compile history books. Carry forward the theory of Taoist priests and make contributions to the human race."

Tai Shibo responded again: "I will definitely do my best, and I will not be entrusted by your Majesty and Taoist priest!"

With the appointment of Taishi Ling, Yang Tuo felt a slight change in the luck between heaven and earth.

Before he had time to investigate carefully, King Qi ordered the banquet to open.All of a sudden, in the main hall, there was a lot of excitement.

Yang Tuo also put down his mind and stopped paying attention!
