To put it shamelessly, Liu Bei sometimes actually wished that someone would fool him into rebelling, and then he would suddenly jump out and subdue the rebel soldiers on the spot.
When Chen Xi told Liu Bei this before, Liu Bei was dubious. Now, Liu Bei is sure that Chen Xi was not joking at all, and could only be saying it in a minor way.
I, Liu Bei, know all the uncles and almost all the team leaders. On the other hand, I dare not say that all the soldiers, at least the vast majority of the soldiers have seen me, Liu Bei, and this is the case. Unless I commit suicide, I
Can it still be overturned?
Therefore, there is no danger at all. Let alone Chen Xi's examples of benefits, even without these, Liu Bei would agree with the plan if directed at Chen Xi himself.
However, precisely because of this danger, Chen Xi was still willing to do this and ask him. Liu Bei felt that Chen Xi actually trusted him very much even though he didn't say anything. This kind of plan could easily lead to his own demise.
This country also dares to implement it.
Actually, Chen Xi was also observing Liu Bei at the time. Among the skills that Liu Bei had not learned over the years was the ability to express emotions and anger.
After all, all his brains were used to recognize people. Liu Bei didn't learn the lowest level of the emperor's mind skill, which is the expression of emotion and anger. Furthermore, later on, Liu Bei also felt that this thing was not very useful, so he decisively specialized in it.
Recognize people, just give up on this point.
As for Li You, he had paid attention to this aspect, but he didn't want to cultivate a deep-minded lord, so he turned a blind eye.
The main reason is that Li You is not blind. The skill of recognizing people that Liu Bei has mastered is really too powerful. At Liu Bei's position, mastering it to this extent can be used to make up for the shortcomings in various aspects, and it can be completely covered with white.
With Bai Chou's routine, Li You decisively skipped other aspects. It would be good to specialize in this, and it would be better to use less brainpower.
In the end, Chen Xi was completely sure that Liu Bei had no other ideas at all, and the last trace of doubt deep in his heart was dissipated. From now on, just let go and do your own things and show your talents. There is no need to allocate part of your energy to increase your own.
sense of security.
Chen Xi would not say a word of these words to others, so when Jia Xu asked, Chen Xi would only smile and say some nonsense that seemed reasonable but was actually worthless.
But what Chen Xi didn't know was that Liu Bei couldn't express his emotions and anger, and Chen Xi couldn't do it himself, because Chen Xi didn't really need this ability, especially since he was very nervous waiting for Liu Bei to nod at that time. After all,
This is related to Chen Xi's attitude in the next few decades.
Liu Bei did not lie. His face and words were not adulterated, because there was no need for adulteration. He might have some thoughts in other aspects, but in this aspect he was true.
Liu Bei indeed regarded Chen Xi as a friend and the pillar of the country. Because of this, Liu Bei saw Chen Xi's hopes and nervousness turn into joy of success at the moment he nodded. He inexplicably understood a lot. It turned out that Chen Zichuan was prepared for a rainy day.
There are times when you are not ready to gamble on a person's character.
Fortunately, this person was him. At that moment, Liu Bei felt inexplicably proud.
Chen Xi is too smart, or should not be said to be smart, but should be said to be too wise. At least from what Liu Bei saw, Chen Xi can indeed take precautions and make every move. Even if he is with such a person,
Even Liu Bei can't help but think about whether Chen Xi has already figured out everything, my reaction, and whether everything about me has been known for a long time.
Even if Liu Bei is very generous, he can't help but think about this, because Chen Xi, who has the pearl of wisdom, has indeed shown the ability to hold everything in his hands.
But because of this, Liu Bei has unlimited trust in Chen Xi's ability, but he lacks any real sense of it, because the other party plans every step and is prepared for a rainy day. Even if you do something and don't say anything, the other party will be prepared in advance.
A wise man who is prepared.
This feeling lacks a sense of reality. Even if Liu Bei repeatedly emphasized that Chen Xi sometimes made mistakes, in terms of general trends, Chen Xi did not make mistakes. A wise man who determined the situation of the world and the current situation ten years ago,
Even Liu Bei found it difficult to have a true sense of reality.
Will such a wise man open his heart to others? Will such a wise man really do something that he is not sure about but must do?
Liu Bei has no way to verify this. All he can do is delegate power to Chen Xi as much as possible, so that Chen Xi can feel his sincerity and work hard for the ideals of both parties. Liu Bei is already qualified to completely delegate power, even if this is Chen Xi
Give it to him.
However, this time Liu Bei really saw hope and nervousness on Chen Xi's face. At that moment, Liu Bei's first reaction was that he was wrong, because Chen Xi was arrogant, unscrupulous, conceited, and confident, but Liu Bei really didn't care about Chen Xi's decision-making.
When I saw this, I saw this kind of hope placed on others and the hope of success.
One of the things Chen Xi often said was that it was foolish to place hope on others when you can do it yourself. At that moment, Liu Bei saw it clearly, and Chen Xi said that it was foolish to do so.
This approach was chosen.
At that moment, Liu Bei understood that this time, Chen Xi did not make a foolproof backup plan. Chen Xi relied on his trust in his plan.
At that moment, Liu Bei suddenly felt that at such a wonderful moment, he should tell a cold joke, threaten Chen Xi, and scare the other party half to death. But what he opened his mouth to say was, "That's it, that's good, I agree."
It was very simple and casual, completely inconsistent with Liu Bei's excited tone when he discovered Chen Xi's true state of mind. Instead, it seemed like a common explanation question before.
After Chen Xi left, Liu Bei came back to his senses and was so angry that he almost smashed the table. For the first time, Liu Bei had an angry thought about his performance. What a good opportunity this was to scare Chen Xi half to death.
What a great opportunity for me to have more fun in the rest of my life, but I actually said such words naturally as if nothing happened.
So now Liu Bei is depressed in the military camp counting people. What a great opportunity, but it was wasted. There is a possibility that he will never have such a good opportunity again in the future.
After hearing Chen Xi's answer, Jia Xu rolled his eyes and didn't want to talk to Chen Xi anymore. With his understanding of people's hearts, he couldn't understand that Chen Xi was joking. However, no matter how thoroughly Jia Xu understood people's hearts, he couldn't.
To truly understand the human heart.
"A group of people got on a pirate ship and couldn't get off. They should still have fun doing it." Li You felt very happy when he thought about the current situation. He really had never thought of this method to deal with powerful families before.
Sure enough, compared to the method used by Chen Xi now, the previous methods of humane destruction were a bit too low-level. Although there were still disadvantages, in the end, they forcibly moved away the mountain above the poor family.
"Of course I enjoy doing things that are beneficial." Chen Xi nodded and said, "After all, I'm actually not very good at forcing others. Generally speaking, my methods tend to make the best of the situation and achieve a win-win result. Alas, I can't do it after all.
Kill me."
Li You looked Chen Xi up and down, then looked at Jia Xu, and then thought about himself. The three of them represented three classes respectively. Chen Xi's wealthy family, Jia Xu's small and medium-sized family, and Li You's poor family.
interesting.
"However, if you give your Chen family dirty information, the seniors of the Chen family won't care?" Li You asked with a smile. The old Chen family has been on the blacklist of the family all year round.
"No matter what, we are separated after leaving the country. It's so far away. By then, Chen, Xun and Sima will definitely be in the same nest. No one knows who is who." Chen Xi waved his hand, and the old Chen family didn't know who they were.
I don't want to come back. What's more, the ancestors of the Chen family have always carried the blame to get benefits. Just carry the pot and other things on your back. Let me take the benefits first. It's very practical to carry the pot and other things.
Besides, the old Chen family already has enough black material. It’s not a big deal to add one more. A drop of ink can turn a bucket of water black, but a drop of pure water certainly can’t turn a bucket of ink back. The situation of the old Chen family is
You know it can't be washed, so why are you talking nonsense?
"What a pity for those small and medium-sized aristocratic families." Li You turned his head to look at Jia Xu and said with a sinister smile.
With this blow, small and medium-sized aristocratic families have completely lost the possibility of growing, and they can only follow the current wealthy and aristocratic families. Moreover, this wave is so big that as long as it is an aristocratic family, no matter how big or small, it will probably be recorded in the notebooks of historians.
"Even if it is reform, it is inevitable to sacrifice some benefits." Chen Xi sighed and said, then felt something was wrong, coughed twice, and said seriously, "Anyway, I have obtained a lot of benefits for them, and put them in the hands of others.
, this group is neither the high-level people who control a lot of resources nor the people at the bottom who have a lot of population resources, so they have been killed long ago."
Jia Xu didn't say anything. Although Chen Xi's words sounded a bit unpleasant, they were the truth. Chen Xi at least gave him a way to live, but he didn't really take action. The big family at least took this group of people to Jianguo and played together pretending to be a national alliance.
It's a game. It's better than playing in the Central Plains. No matter what, you can still have your own land.
"Okay, you've finished asking all the questions you should ask. Go back now. This place is quite impressive." Seeing the expressions on the two people's faces, Chen Xi naturally changed the subject. In fact, when the two brought him out, Chen Xi
Got an estimate.
"Go back. It can be considered a reasonable explanation. Then who will clean up the entire official system this time?" Jia Xu nodded after hearing this, and then asked naturally, this time the purge, but in the face of
For the entire official system of the Han Dynasty, Cao and Sun, who had suffered this blow, might also be watching this purge together.
Of course, even so, this is an opportunity to completely unify the entire national official system and eliminate redundancies.
