Luoyang.

Emperor Jin Mao issued an edict, ordering the eldest prince Jin Lin to ascend the throne of crown prince.

The fourth prince, Jin Zhe, was dissatisfied and the matter became a big deal.

Emperor Jin Mao summoned Jin Zhe to the palace and asked, "Why are you dissatisfied?"

Jin Zhe said, "Father, I do not doubt my brother Jin Lin's ability, but I think that the issue of choosing a crown prince should be based on the overall interests of the country and should prioritize those with both moral integrity and talent. I have studied the books of sages since I was young, and I know that 'only by knowing people and appointing them to the right positions can a country prosper'. In recent years, I have been training on the frontier and have made many military achievements, which have won the love of the people and the soldiers in the army. On the other hand, my eldest brother, although gentle and knowledgeable, has little experience in handling the practical affairs of the court, and has never made significant achievements in leading the army and governing the country. I dare to say that if the eldest son is chosen instead of the virtuous one, it may not be a blessing for the country, nor is it the wise decision that you, father, have always adhered to."

Jin Mao heard this, a trace of solemnity flashed between his brows, he slowly said: "Second brother Jin Zhe's words, although there is some truth, but the matter of establishing a crown prince is not trivial, it is related to the foundation of our dynasty for the next hundred years. The order of seniority is the ancient teachings, which cannot be easily abandoned. My eldest brother Jin Lin is gentle and elegant, and his knowledge is broad, no one in the court can match it, this is the foundation of governing the country. Moreover, governing a country is not just based on military merit, but also requires cultural governance and education, so that both internal and external cultivation can be achieved, so that the country can be long-term and stable. Jin Lin has been in the court for many years, and has a deep understanding of government affairs. He is kind to others and can win the hearts of the ministers. This is also the quality required by a monarch of a country. As for the military exploits on the frontier, although they are important, the comprehensive ability to govern the country should not be neglected. I think that the establishment of a crown prince should be considered comprehensively, and no one should be neglected. Although you have military merits, Jin Zhe, you also need to continue to hone your skills so that you can contribute more to the country in the future. I have my own decision on this matter, and you don't need to say more.

I know very well that Jin Lin's talent is not limited to poetry, books and etiquette, but also lies in his deep concern for the people's livelihood. He often visits incognito to understand the people's sentiments and has a deep insight into the needs and demands of the people. Such people-friendly actions are indeed a model for emperors. Only by winning the hearts of the people can the foundation of the country be consolidated. Moreover, when handling state affairs, Jin Lin always takes into account the interests of all parties, strives for fairness and justice, and makes the government and the people live in harmony, which is the cornerstone of national stability.

On the other hand, although Jin Zhe is extremely brave and has made great contributions to the peace of the border, he still needs to be more mature in his concept of governing the country. The way to govern a country is to have a balance. It is necessary to have iron-blooded means to resist foreign enemies, but also to have a gentle and tender heart to keep the people at home. Jin Zhe needs to learn to combine martial arts with civil governance in order to become a pillar of the country.

I have decided that Jin Lin will be the candidate for the crown prince and will be carefully trained so that he can inherit the throne and lead our country to a more prosperous path. As for Jin Zhe, I will not bury his talents and will definitely entrust him with important tasks so that he can continue to play his strengths in the frontier, guard the country, and contribute to the peace of the country. I have made up my mind and hope that you can work together to assist the government and make our dynasty last forever. "

I know very well that governing a country is not something that can be accomplished by one person alone. It requires the concerted efforts of all the ministers to achieve a great cause for generations to come. Although Jin Lin has been appointed as the crown prince, his growth still requires the careful teaching and assistance of all the ministers, so that he can be both virtuous and talented and become a monarch who can shoulder great responsibilities as soon as possible. As for Jin Zhe, he is extremely brave and has made great military achievements on the frontier. I place him outside the country because I value his determination and ability to protect his country. I hope that Jin Zhe will live up to my expectations and continue to hone his martial arts. At the same time, he must cultivate himself and his family, and share my worries and seek benefits for the people with his both civil and military skills.

I also hope that the court and the people inside and outside the court can take this personnel arrangement as an opportunity to unite more and work together for national affairs. No matter civil or military, everyone needs to perform their duties and do their best to jointly promote the development of the country. I will uphold justice, reward and punish clearly, ensure the order of the court and the growth of national strength. I hope that with the joint efforts of all the nobles, our court can usher in one prosperous era after another, so that the people can live and work in peace. My heart is witnessed by heaven and earth, and I hope you will live up to my trust and create brilliance together. "

In addition, I know that the prosperity of a country is not achieved overnight, but requires long-term efforts and perseverance. Therefore, I want to implement a series of new policies aimed at enriching the country and strengthening the army, and improving people's livelihood. Agriculture is the foundation of a country. We should encourage farming, build water conservancy projects, ensure that there is plenty of food, and relieve the people's worries about food and clothing; industry and commerce should not be neglected. We need to open up the market, promote trade and circulation, stimulate the vitality of the people, fill the treasury, and double the national strength.

Education is the cornerstone of the country's future. I will increase support for schools, recruit talents, and cultivate talents for governing the country. At the same time, I will popularize literacy education, improve the cultural literacy of the people, and let the light of wisdom shine everywhere. The legal system must also be strengthened to ensure that the law is fair and strict, protect the rights and interests of the people, severely punish corruption, rectify the government, make the state machinery run in an orderly manner, and make society harmonious and stable.

I would rather live in harmony with neighboring countries, expand trade exchanges, enhance friendship through peaceful diplomacy, jointly resist foreign aggression, and maintain regional peace. We should treat visitors from afar with courtesy, show our great country's demeanor, promote cultural exchanges, and let the brilliance of Chinese civilization spread to the world.

In short, I will spare no effort to work hand in hand with you to create brilliance together. I hope that we can work together to make the country prosperous and the people happy and healthy, so that history will remember this moment and leave our names in history for thousands of years to come. "

In addition, I know that education is the foundation of a country and talent cultivation is related to its future prosperity. Therefore, I will vigorously promote education, popularize knowledge, improve the quality of the people, and encourage innovative thinking, so that more pillars of talent will emerge to contribute to national construction. At the same time, I will focus on the development of science and technology, introduce advanced technology, encourage inventions and creations, enhance national strength, and make our country stand tall in the world.

Agriculture is the foundation of the country and should not be underestimated. I will promote farmland water conservancy construction, increase food production, reduce the burden on the people, ensure food security, and save the people from hunger. We should also support handicrafts and commerce, promote market prosperity, enrich people's lives, and achieve prosperity in all industries.

In the military, we will strengthen national defense, train elite soldiers and generals, ensure peace on the border, and at the same time, we must be prepared for danger in times of peace, always be ready to respond to possible challenges, and protect this beautiful land.

I know that the will of the people is the foundation of the country's long-term stability. Therefore, I will continue to implement benevolent policies, listen to the voices of the people, solve the people's livelihood problems, let every citizen feel the care and warmth of the country, and truly realize the ideal picture of peace and prosperity.

To sum up, you and I should be of one mind and one heart, work hard to govern the country, live up to the trust of the late emperor and the expectations of the people, and jointly write a new chapter for the country, so that future generations will remember today's efforts and pass on the great cause for thousands of years.

Jin Zhe still refused to accept the rebellion. He colluded with Cao Pi and others to plot a rebellion. Hua Xin, as Jin Zhe's confidant, tried his best to dissuade him after learning about it: "Your Highness, your move is unwise. The country is in a prosperous period. Your Majesty is wise and brave, and is deeply loved by the people. The court and the country are in harmony. If you rashly start a rebellion, it will be like hitting a rock with an egg. Not only will you be in danger, but you will also implicate your family and cause countless innocent people to suffer. Moreover, you and His Majesty have known each other since childhood and are as close as brothers. Do you really want to abandon your friendship for your own selfish reasons? I hope Your Highness will think twice before acting, and don't make a big mistake on impulse!"

Jin Zhe's expression changed several times when he heard this, and he struggled internally. He knew that Hua Xin's words were true, but the resentment and anger in his heart were like wildfire, and it was difficult to calm down. He sighed and said, "I know this move is extremely dangerous, but I see that Sun Ming is making every move carefully and his power is growing day by day, while we can only rely on him. How can I swallow this breath! The brotherhood in the past, now it seems, is just a pawn for him to consolidate his position."

Seeing this, Hua Xin knew that it would be difficult to sway Jin Zhe's heart with words alone, so he changed the topic and said, "Your Highness, heroes and heroes since ancient times have not only won by force, but also by wisdom. If you really have great ambitions, why don't you secretly accumulate strength and wait for the right time? When the time is ripe, then do it, wouldn't it be safer? Moreover, although Your Majesty is wise, he also has his blind spots. There are also many people in the court who are dissatisfied with the current situation. If you can unite with these people and make plans in secret, you may succeed. But remember, you must be patient first and never act rashly."

After hearing this, Jin Zhe's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was touched. He pondered for a moment, and finally nodded slowly: "Hua Qing's words make sense, I was too impatient. From now on, I will restrain my edge, prepare secretly, and wait for the time when the situation changes, and then make great plans. You continue to pay attention to the movements in the court and collect intelligence for me. If I succeed in the future, I will not let you down today."

Hua Xin felt relieved after hearing this, knowing that although Jin Zhe was unwilling, it was rare for him to listen to his advice. He bowed and said, "I will do my best to help Your Highness achieve great things. I only hope that Your Highness can remember today's decision and stay true to your original intention, so that you can go a long way."

Thus, a storm that had failed to materialize was temporarily calmed down by the conspiracy and forbearance of the monarch and his ministers. However, the torrent of history continued to roll forward, and no one could predict what kind of storm was hidden under this temporary calm.

Jin Zhe looked at the boundless night outside the window with a firm gaze, as if he wanted to take in the unknown future. He said softly: "Hua Qing is right. Don't forget your original intention, so that you can persevere. Although I was born in the royal family, I know that the road to power is full of thorns. One wrong step will lead to eternal damnation. Today's decision is not only for self-protection, but also for the people of the world to suffer less from war. I hope that you and I can work together to overcome difficulties and create a peaceful and prosperous world."

After hearing this, Hua Xin's eyes flashed with emotion. He knew that in addition to the desire for power, this young prince also had a precious benevolence. He bowed again, his tone more resolute: "Your Highness cares about the world, which is a blessing for all people. Although I am not talented, I am willing to use my broken body to become a stepping stone for your journey and pave a road to a bright future."

With Hua Xin's exit, silence returned to the study room. Jin Zhe stood alone in front of the window, gazing at the stars in the night sky, with mixed feelings in his heart. He understood that the road ahead was still long, with challenges and opportunities coexisting, but as long as there was light in his heart, there would be a way under his feet. He secretly vowed that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, he would stick to his original intention, live up to Hua Xin's loyalty, live up to the expectations of the people of the world, and finally realize the grand cause depicted in his heart.

In this vast river of history, the story of Jin Zhe and Hua Xin is just a small ripple among many waves, but they are also writing their own legends and glory in their own chapters.

As the night deepened, the occasional sound of a few drums could be heard from outside the window, reminding us of the passage of time. Jin Zhe turned around and glanced at the ancient books neatly arranged on the bookshelf, each of which carried the wisdom and hard work of the predecessors. He realized that true strength does not only come from personal determination and courage, but also from being able to learn from history and integrate the wisdom of everyone, so that one can remain invincible in this turbulent world.

Therefore, he decided to recruit talents and employ them regardless of their background. No matter if they were from humble or prestigious families, as long as they had real talents and were willing to contribute to the prosperity of the country, they would be given important positions. At the same time, he also began to reform the internal affairs, reduce the burden on the people, and encourage farming and trade, in the hope that the national economy could recover quickly and lay a solid foundation for future wars.

In this process, Jin Zhe knew that reform would inevitably be accompanied by pain and would affect the interests of the vested interests, but he was fearless because he believed that the cause of justice would eventually gain the support of the people, and the wheel of history would roll forward and crush all obstacles. He began to sketch out pictures of the future in his mind, where there would be prosperous cities, fruitful fields, people living and working in peace and contentment, and the country would emerge on the international stage and show the demeanor of a great power.

At the same time, Jin Zhe did not forget his personal cultivation and improvement. He knew that as a king, he not only needed to have a far-sighted strategic vision, but also a profound cultural heritage and excellent leadership. Therefore, he often studied hard late at night, covering a wide range of topics, from history, philosophy to military tactics, and technology, constantly enriching himself, and striving to reflect careful consideration and foresight in every decision.

In this way, Jin Zhe gradually grew into a leader with great talent and benevolence through step-by-step practice. This journey is destined to become a good story passed down by future generations, inspiring countless people to move forward bravely and work tirelessly for their ideals and beliefs.

Under his leadership, the country has ushered in unprecedented prosperity and prosperity. Jin Zhe not only focused on personal growth, but also transformed this thirst for knowledge and the tempering of ability into a force to promote national progress. He advocated the establishment of institutions of learning, encouraged people to learn, let the spark of wisdom bloom on every inch of land, and formed a good atmosphere of advocating knowledge and pursuing progress among the people.

At the same time, Jin Zhe also knew that the way to govern a country lies in balance. He cleverly found the point of convergence between strengthening the army and enriching the people. Through a series of reform measures, he not only strengthened the country's defense capabilities, but also greatly improved the people's living standards. Under his governance, the country was harmonious inside and outside, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the culture flourished, and the technology was changing with each passing day, becoming the envy of neighboring countries.

What is even more commendable is that Jin Zhe always maintained a humble heart. He often visited the people in disguise, listened to the voices of the people, and always humbly accepted reasonable suggestions and immediately made improvements. This attitude of being close to the people and loving the people has established an unshakable prestige in his people's hearts. The whole country is united and jointly writing a glorious chapter.

Jin Zhe's life is the best interpretation of "learning without end, governing the country with virtue". (End of this chapter)
