Be an emperor from drawing cards

Chapter 98: Jun's plan, what happened back then!
After Fan Zhen and Lu Yian left, before Zhao Yu could take a sip of tea, Gao Lishi had already come to his side and whispered:
"Your Majesty, Master Heba Palace has found the three people your Majesty is looking for."

"So fast?"

Zhao Yu was a little dazed, and he ordered He Bayun to find Zhuge Jin and the other three in less than a day, so they found it?

This efficiency... was somewhat beyond his expectation.

"Master Heba's Jishi Mansion has already been built in sevens and eighties, and there are many more manpower available. It is much more convenient to find people than slaves at that time."

Gao Lishi whispered with a smile.

"Tell He Bayun and ask him to lead these three people to Funing Palace. After I review the memorial later, I will go and see these three people. Remember, don't alert others."

Zhao Yu's men knocked on the table subconsciously and gave instructions.

"Yes, servant girl will do it now."

Gao Lishi responded, hurried out of Zihuan Hall, and informed He Bayun.

Listening to the footsteps of Gao Lishi leaving in a hurry, Zhao Yu shook his head, picked up the imperial pen, and continued to review the memorial.

He hasn't even finished reading one-tenth of today's memorial.

By the time Zhao Yu finished reviewing the memorial, it was almost sunset.

Zhao Yu stood up, twisted his neck and shoulders, and crisp "crackling" sounds sounded from all parts of his body.

"If you don't practice martial arts and keep fit, you just sit and review memorials every day, and your iron-clad body will get sick."

Calling Gao Lishi into the palace, Zhao Yu said:

"Let's go to Funing Palace to meet those people."

"Caomin Zhuge Jin/Bu Zha/Yu Fan, I have seen the Holy One, long live long live long live!"

Seeing the dignified young man wearing a yellow robe and striding into the hall accompanied by a chamberlain, the three of them quickly stood up and paid their respects.

The person in front of me can enter here directly without any notification. Without thinking, he must be that person.

"Everyone, get up. I don't like these false gifts." Zhao Yu smiled and raised his hand, "I think you three should be curious, why did I come to you?"

Zhugejin and the three looked at each other, Yu Fan cupped his hands and said, "Please show me, Your Majesty."

Zhao Yu put his hands behind his hands and said slowly:
"A few days ago, I was taught by the late emperor in a dream, saying that three famous ministers came to the world to assist me, and told me all three names."

Gao Lishi, who was standing behind Zhao Yu, twitched the corner of his mouth.

This sentence, not long ago, he probably seemed to... heard this sentence before?

However, Zhao Yu's words were obviously very damaging to Zhuge Jin and the others.

The three of them showed expressions of disbelief almost at the same time. Although they subconsciously didn't believe Zhao Yu's words, Zangdu couldn't hide the look of surprise and joy in their eyes.

Because... in their opinion, as the emperor of Chu, Zhao Yu could not lie to them with these words!
"Shame on the grassroots!"

Zhuge Jin and the others bowed again.

"I don't want to hide it from you. Now that I have just ascended the throne, I am in urgent need of manpower. The late emperor asked me in a dream that you and the other three have the talent to govern the world. In this case, I will test you all. If the answer satisfies me, I will not hesitate to give it. Reuse.”

Zhao Yu sat on the chair and said calmly.

These three people were all important officials of Soochow in Chinese history. In fact, Zhao Yu did not need to be assessed at all.

But the people Zhao Yu can trust now are basically warriors, who are not too sensitive to politics.

Therefore, after finally meeting three civil servants who left their names in history, Zhao Yu still wanted to hear their views on this great Chu.

Or to put it more bluntly, it’s asking for advice.

"Please ask Your Majesty to come up with a topic. The common people will tell you everything they know."

Zhuge Jin and the other three looked at each other, bowed and asked.

"You don't need to be restrained, and you don't need to treat me as the emperor of Chu. Just treat me as a passerby. Let's chat casually about the political situation."

One thing that warriors are better than literati is that they don't have so many false etiquette.Everyone can talk directly to each other, which saves a lot of communication trouble.

Seeing that the three of them were a little restrained, Zhao Yu waved his hand and motioned for the three of them to sit down.

"My question is also very simple. In your opinion, if Dachu wants to go further, what difficulties does it need to overcome and how to overcome it?"

Zhao Yu threw out the question with a smile.

When Zhuge Jin and the other three heard this, they frowned slightly and began to think carefully.

This question and answer is related to their future career, so they cannot be careless.

Zhao Yu was not in a hurry, picked up a cup of tea on the table and began to taste it slowly.

"His Majesty……"

About a quarter of an hour later, the three of Zhuge Jin raised their heads almost simultaneously and opened their mouths at the same time.

They were stunned for a moment, and the three of them couldn't help but feel a little shocked.

"Brother Ziyu, you are the youngest among the three of us, so you go first."

Yu Fan cupped his hands towards Zhuge Jin and said with a smile.

Bu Zhao's eyes flashed and he nodded slightly.

"In that case, let me tell you my humble opinion first, and let Your Majesty and the two brothers correct me."

Zhuge Jin's eyes flashed with confidence, he saluted Zhao Yu and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, in the foolish opinion of the common people, the troubles of Chu are internal and external. Internally there is the aftermath of Huang Jingming's remnant party, and externally there is the covetousness of the two countries of Burma and Qi.

Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and Huang Jingming's remnants will surely be able to capture them. Tzuyu boldly tells your Majesty today the common people's countermeasures against Burma and Qi. "

For a large country, it is necessary to make connections with distant enemies and attack those close to home, and to unite vertically and horizontally to gain the upper hand among other countries.

If Your Majesty wants to achieve great things, the Second Prefecture in Southern Xinjiang and the Three Prefectures in Jiangbei must be taken back, with the Three Prefectures in Jiangbei being the most important.Our country, Chu, faces Jin and Qi across the Canglong River.The state of Jin is far more powerful than Chu, but the state of Qi has the hatred of the three prefectures in the north of the Yangtze River, so we should join forces with Jin to attack Qi.Retrieve the three prefectures in Jiangbei and attack Qi State, and Chu will have a land to herd horses in the Northern Expedition.After the destruction of Qi, only the Yun State, the Daxia Khanate and our Da Chu were left on the plateau.

Your Majesty can, on the one hand, recuperate, train soldiers, and enhance national strength; on the other hand, you can unite the two kingdoms of Yin and Xia. When the time is right, you can make an appointment to attack Jin together.Three wolves can still swallow a tiger, let alone the Three Kingdoms?If it succeeds, the territory of Chu State will be doubled, and its strength will be incomparable. "

Zhao Yu couldn't help but nodded when he heard this.

Although Zhuge Jin's vision is not as good as those of first-class or even top-notch counselors, among the people Zhao Yu meets, his overall view is already extremely strong.

He is very good at diplomacy, and the strategies he proposes are mainly based on diplomacy. He is even more familiar with the combination of vertical and horizontal lines.

"Bu Zishan, what do you think?"

Zhao Yu turned his eyes to the handsome Bu Zhi and asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the common people are not good at far-sightedness, and they are not as far-sighted as Ziyu. However, the common people believe that if your Majesty wants to make friends far away and attack close to the enemy, you should first improve the national strength. The common people were born in Lingnan, and what they have seen and heard along the way makes them quite uneasy."

Bu Zhao said in a deep voice.

Lingnan here refers to the south of Taihe Mountains, which broadly includes Zhenjiang, Nantong, and Qiyang, and is located in the southeast corner of the Dachu territory.

"Your Majesty, the mountains in Lingnan are high and the rivers are far away. It has been a long time since I have been dissatisfied with the king. Although the imperial court has appointed magistrates, if they do not cooperate with the local wealthy families, they are no different from deaf and blind people. Over time, local officials must rely on the wealthy families to implement the various policies of the imperial court. Continue to promote it. In this way, the majesty of the imperial court is increasingly weakened.

Spring has not yet entered this year, but it has already been rainy in Huangzhou Prefecture. It can be seen that this year is a rainy year.This is true for Huangzhou Prefecture, let alone Qiyang and Zhenjiang Prefectures in the south.If local wealthy families hoard goods and drive up prices, civil unrest among many tribes in Lingnan is very likely to occur.Your Majesty, please take a closer look! "

At the end of the sentence, Bu Zhao bowed to the ground.

"The three Lingnan prefectures are really as serious as Zishan said?"

When Zhao Yu heard this, he couldn't help but raise his voice and asked.If there is a civil uprising in the three prefectures of Lingnan, as Bu Zhi said, and if the rebels are connected with the tribes in southern Xinjiang, how big of a shock will there be in southern Dachu at that time?
Thinking up to this point, Zhao Yu was even a little terrified.

"Your Majesty, there are many mountains in Lingnan, and most of the tribes live in the mountains instead of living in towns like our Chinese. Heavy rains will definitely cause flash floods. By then, these tribes will be unable to resist natural disasters and will have to go down the mountains. , plus the powerful families are adding fuel to the flames, how could it not trigger a popular uprising?"

Bu Zhao showed a bitter smile on his lips and bowed again.

"The common people have no other intentions. They just ask His Majesty to make preparations as soon as possible."

Your Majesty is the young emperor. He has just eliminated the powerful ministers and regained power. The situation at the central and local levels in Da Chu needs to be sorted out slowly, and this will take time.

But now, the most lacking thing in Lingnan is time.

Therefore, the suggestion he made to Zhao Yu today was just to do his best and obey fate. He hoped that the court would know the situation in Lingnan and make more preparations before the incident happened.

After all, Bu Zhao was born in Lingnan, and he didn't want Lingnan to suffer such a heavy blow, and he didn't want Dachu to fall into turmoil because of this.

Seeing Bu Zhao's sincere words, Zhao Yu nodded to indicate that he had taken note of it. He pondered for a moment and then said:
"Zishan, since you have this intention, then first go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to take up the position of director. While familiar with the affairs of the Ministry of Household Affairs, you should focus on Lingnan. If Lingnan is really what you said, what should the court do? Only by minimizing the losses and controlling the civil unrest to the lowest intensity can we be prepared for any disaster."

The head of the household department is a fifth-rank official position.

Bu Lu was directly promoted from a commoner to a fifth-grade civil servant by Zhao Yu, which shows the importance he attached to him.

Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Bu Lu, who had always been indifferent, felt a little excited at this time and said:

"Weichen, thank you Your Majesty. Weichen will definitely give His Majesty a satisfactory answer to this matter."

"I like people who ask questions, but I like people who solve problems even more. Do your job well, I'm watching."

Zhao Yu was very satisfied with Bu Lu's attitude, encouraged him a few words, and then looked at the oldest Yu Fan.

"Yu Zhongxiang, I have heard of your name of 'Three Wonders' before. I wonder if Mr. Zhongxiang can teach me?"

When Yu Fan heard this, he said solemnly:

"The common people didn't expect that even a humble name could reach His Majesty's ears. This is actually a blessing for the common people."

Zhao Yu curled his lips and said:
"If I remember correctly, you, Yu Zhongxiang, are not a flatterer. Why are you today?"

"Your Majesty, the Holy Emperor, what the common people say comes from the bottom of their hearts, and there is no hint of flattery."

Yu Fan cupped his hands and said.

Seeing Yu Fan's serious look, Zhao Yu pointed at him, shook his head and said with a smile:
"You, I say you are fat, but you are out of breath."

However, to be honest, the feeling of being praised like this can only be described in one word - refreshing!

"The common people believe that although the Yudang, Lingnan, and foreign countries are suffering from the problems of Chu, they are all caused by scabies. With your Majesty's wisdom, we can resolve them one by one in less than ten years."

Yu Fan said solemnly.

"Then, based on your Yu Zhongxiang's opinion, where is Da Chu's confidant's trouble?"

Zhao Yurao asked with interest.

"Since it is the trouble of one's confidants, it is easy to live among the confidants."

Yu Fan pointed at his chest and said in a deep voice:

"In the eyes of the common people, the family clan is a serious problem for Da Chu. If the problem of the clan clan is not solved, the same mistakes will be repeated when His Majesty dies!"

When this statement came out, the whole audience was shocked.

Gao Lishi frowned and said sternly:
"How dare you disrespect His Majesty!"

My master is less than [-] years old, and this guy actually bluntly said that after the immortal passed away, this is not disrespectful, but what is disrespectful?

Zhuge Jin and Bu Zhi looked at Yu Fan with concern.

Although both of them knew Yu Fan's upright and rebellious temperament, and also knew that his biggest concern for Da Chu was the family, they did not expect that this man would say it directly in front of His Majesty.

"Your Majesty, if the common people really commit the crime of disrespect, please let the common people finish their words. In this way, the common people will die without regrets."

Yu Fan cupped his hands towards Zhao Yu, then looked at Gao Lishi and said calmly:

"My father-in-law, if your Majesty punishes me for my crime, I will go to jail myself. There is no need to trouble my father-in-law to arrest people! My father-in-law, you should think more about how to persuade your majesty to treat virtuous ministers and stay away from villains."

"you……"

When Gao Lishi heard what Yu Fan said, he was so worried that he felt seriously ill.

Why did he feel that this guy was calling him a "villain"?

"Although I am young, I also know that I will not be punished for my words and will not be imprisoned for my words. Gao Lishi, I don't need you to serve me here. Go and wait outside the door."

Zhao Yu waved his hand.

"His Majesty……"

Gao Lishi looked aggrieved.

It was Yu Zhongxiang who bumped into His Majesty, but why was he the one who got scolded in the end?

"Waiting outside the door."

Zhao Yu frowned, Gao Lishi saw that the situation was not right, hurriedly retreated in small steps, and closed the door courteously.

But when he walked out of the door, he found He Bayun who was guarding the door looking at him with doubtful eyes. Gao Lishi, who felt he had lost face, couldn't help but feel resentful in his heart.

Yu Zhongxiang, right?
Our family remembers you!

The mountains will not change, the rivers will change, let's just ride on the donkey and read the songbook - we'll see!
"Now, only you and I are left in this hall, can Zhong Xiang speak?"

Zhao Yu asked with a smile.

Yu Fan's throat rolled a few times, he took a deep breath, bowed solemnly to Zhao Yu, and asked questions instead of answering.

"Your Majesty, do you know how the big man died?"

The Great Han Dynasty, the unified dynasty 300 years ago, not only included the present-day Jin, Qi, and Chu, but also included a small half of the territory of the Great Xia Khanate today.

"I have also read history books, and it is the relatives and eunuchs who caused chaos in the Han Dynasty. At the end of the former Han Dynasty, the young master was suspicious of the country, the ministers were not attached, and the people did not believe it. There were relatives and eunuchs vying for power inside, and there were Northern barbarians looking at them. In the end, , the imperial power of the Han Dynasty fell by the wayside, and the people rose up in rebellion. As a result, one Han Dynasty lost its deer, and the whole world chased it away. After nearly a hundred years of melee, we have reached today's situation."

Zhao Yu said without thinking.

In his view, the situation at the end of the former Han Dynasty was very similar to that of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty in China, but it was more complicated and chaotic.

"What your Majesty said is just an appearance."

Yu Fan said seriously:
"In the last years of the Han Dynasty, although the disaster of eunuchs was severe, there were foreign relatives who hindered it. After all, it was only a temporary problem. Throughout the last hundred years of the Great Han Dynasty, the emperor was born in the deep palace and grew up in the hands of women. The most credible ones are not only foreign relatives And eunuchs. Foreign relatives are relatives of the mother's family; eunuchs are their own slaves. Both of them must rely on their own strength to have monstrous power. If they are dissatisfied, they only need a piece of edict. When asked about his crime, he was dismissed from the throne.

However, the officials of the Han Dynasty were either recruited from the local area or promoted as commanders.He started in the state capital, became an official after being inspected and promoted, and regarded the local area as his priority.When he entered the court and the central government, he gradually established a three-legged relationship with the eunuchs and relatives.

At the time of the late Han Dynasty, the Taizu clan of the Jin State had been officials for generations. It was the family of the fourth generation and the three princes, and their disciples and former officials were spread all over the country and abroad.He made suggestions for the eunuchs, leading the border troops into Kyoto, killing his relatives, and clearing the emperor's side.However, when his relatives were all executed, he turned around and led his troops to surround and kill the eunuchs, causing chaos in Kyoto and the court.

Foreign relatives and eunuchs all relied on the emperor and held great power. If they wanted to kill them, all they needed was an edict. There was no need for foreign troops to enter the capital and cause chaos in the capital.The last emperor had no choice but to run away. After this incident, the great Han Dynasty lost all its authority. From then on, dragons and snakes rose up in the world, and heroes emerged in large numbers to compete in the world.Until the end, the Taizu of the Jin Dynasty forced the young emperor to abdicate, achieving the 200-year emperorship of the Jin Dynasty.

From the perspective of ordinary people, the chaos in the former Han Dynasty was not caused by relatives, let alone eunuchs, but by family members and aristocratic families, just like today! "

After saying that, Yu Fan bowed his hands and saluted Zhao Yu.

"Your Majesty, I have finished speaking about what the common people have said. Please indicate the location of the prison. The common people can go on their own without bothering the palace guards!"

　[-] words, it can be regarded as fulfilling the promise of putting it on the shelves!It’s a new month, please ask for a guaranteed monthly pass^-^
