"Only with such a king can we and other generals be able to command without any scruples!" Lian Po said again. This was the relationship between king and minister that they, the generals, most longed for.
The three men become tigers are not just talking about the Pangzi, they are also talking about them. Once the war goes unfavorably, there will be no shortage of rumors in the court. Even after a great victory, there will still be female officials and sycophants who will impeach them for supporting the army and respecting themselves.
These can never be avoided, and while they are leading troops outside, the only thing they can hope for is that the king can distinguish right from wrong and believe in them.
"I still want to thank the general for the recommendation. Tonight Nuan is hosting a banquet in the mansion. I hope the general will reward you!" Pang Nuan nodded in approval, and then he remembered that he had such an opportunity because of Lian Po's recommendation, so he looked at Lian Po gratefully. .
"This general will definitely arrive!" Lian Po nodded and guarded the door together. If he didn't go, wouldn't he be laughed at by them for not joining the door?
…
After settling the matter of the New Army, Jin Yao looked at the stacked bamboo slips of government affairs and was speechless again, but he could only force himself to look at it and deal with it.
"After all, I ended up living a life I hate!" Jin Yao sighed.
"You have chosen the road yourself, and you have to walk it on your own with tears in your eyes!" Bingbaishen said calmly.
"At least we have changed the fate of many people, haven't we?" the red-haired God Killer said with relief.
Jin Yao nodded. At least they had changed the oppressed life of the Zhao people, so that they were no longer blindly controlled by the powerful local nobles and could truly express their own voices.
"Where are Mr. Gongsun and the others?" Jin Yao asked.
Weiguo is not far from Handan, so if we calculate the time, we should have arrived long ago.
"The famous master has avoided our eyes and ears. Mr. Gongsun Long said that he wanted to take a walk in Zhao State first!" the red-haired divine killer replied.
This is also the consistent style of scholars. They will first check whether the country is really suitable for them, rather than blindly go to the country to take up a job.
It is true that Gongsun Long and his famous disciples did not go directly to Handan, but spared Zhao State. However, they only traveled in small towns and villages in order to obtain the most accurate information about Zhao State.
"They seem to have forgotten the Zhao family very quickly!" Gongsun Linglong had questions from what she saw along the way, and looked at her father with some confusion.
The Zhao family has been operating in the State of Zhao for more than a hundred years, but Jin Yao has only been king of Zhao for a short period of time. Why have the people of Zhao forgotten the Zhao family and are still chanting about the emperor?
"This is the terrible thing about Shen Zi's Shu Zhi. Shen Zi's Shu Zhi conforms to the people's will and is very effective. The only flaw is that it does not last long and will put the monarch, his ministers and the people into danger. And he is worthy of being a debater from the Mohist school. The first king, using the Mohist method of three expressions, took advantage of Shen Zi's technique and avoided its shortcomings." Gongsun Long was also a little impressed.
This method of inspecting counties and counties allowed the entire Zhao Kingdom to govern the Qingming Dynasty in an instant.
The people did not care whether the nobles who were overthrown violated their rights. They just saw powerful people being overthrown and villains being overthrown. They would feel happy and think that the new emperor was really making decisions for them. , and then you will support and be convinced.
"So, what he is doing is only treating the symptoms but not the root cause. The Zhao State is still a mess. It does not have its own perfect system and promotion path like the Qin State!" Gongsun Long directly analyzed that the essence of the Zhao State has not changed. .….
So what if the nobles who were responsible for the disaster were defeated? The State of Zhao still needs nobles to rule, instead of being able to select outstanding talents from the bottom to enrich the official offices and govern the place like the State of Qin.
And this is the reason why Gongsun Long didn't rush to Handan, because he couldn't find a complete system comparable to Qin.
He knew very well why Jin Yao was looking for him, but he was a little afraid to take on Zhao Guo's mess.
If he just managed the Zhao Kingdom step by step, he could do it with his eyes closed, but he is the head of a famous family. If this is the case, who would be different?
Therefore, Gongsun Long had to follow the example of Lord Shang and traveled throughout the counties, counties and villages of Zhao State, trying to find a path suitable for Zhao State.
However, the coronation time is three months, and the New Year is about to arrive, so Zhao Guo also
He was almost finished walking, but he still hadn't found a unique road that was suitable for the country of Zhao.
"I really don't dare to go!" Gongsun Long muttered in a low voice.
Although he is the head of a famous family and has the qualifications to become the Prime Minister of the Zhao Kingdom, if he is coupled with Gongsun Linglong's status, the world will think that he can become the Prime Minister of Zhao because of his status as the head of the country.
If he does not have impressive achievements and meritorious deeds, how will he be able to command all the officials of Zhao State and face the world in the future?
Gongsun Linglong didn't think too much about it. She only knew that the identity barrier that once prevented them from being together was gone, and even famous people were in favor of their marriage.
Therefore, one of the father and daughter was hesitant, dilly-dallying, unwilling to rush to Handan, while the other was eager to return home, counting on his fingers how long it would take before he could see his beloved.
Seeing his daughter counting the time on her fingers, the old father felt even worse.
"What's going on? Just be your leader of the Mohist family and inherit the position of the great son of the Mohist family in the future. Even if you two get killed, as long as I'm still here, I can still turn a blind eye. Who dares to say anything as long as he doesn't want his status as long as he prostitutes an outstanding offspring for nothing? He must be a king!" Gongsun Long cursed and became more and more angry as he thought about it.
He once really thought about how to deal with Jin Yao and his daughter's affairs. It was impossible to ask for marriage and status, but he could turn a blind eye. This was not the first time that this happened.
He prostituted the son of an outstanding person for free, and the nobles became familiar with him.
According to the Zhuanxu calendar, the New Year falls in October, which is also the slack time after the autumn harvest, implying the joy of a good harvest.
But looking at the Handan Royal City that was already in front of him, Gongsun Long's face narrowed, as if everyone owed him 1.8 million.
"Father, Handan is here!" Gongsun Linglong stretched her head out of the car window happily, eager to see her beloved.
"Didn't you forget that he is surrounded by two beauties?" Gongsun Long said in a shocked voice, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became.
"A virtuous man has three wives and four concubines. As a king, he has a harem of three thousand beauties. Is this a display of ability? Isn't this what my father taught me?" Gongsun Linglong didn't care and asked with her head tilted.
Gongsun Long's face became even darker. Why did he explain to his daughter like this in the first place that she had so many second and third mothers? Now retribution has come!
"Gu, meet Mr. Famous Master!"
Regardless of his identity as the head of a famous family or Gongsun Linglong's father, Jin Yao had no reason not to go out of the city to greet him, so he took all the Zhao officials out of the city early to show respect.
