Not to mention that the dragon shape of Chang'an, the great Han Dynasty, weakened a bit when Cao Cao and others' popularity changed. Just talking about Cao Cao's dragon appearance made Liu Xie's fear rise to a very high level.
Unlike Liu Bei, Liu Xie would be jealous and helpless at most even if he saw Liu Bei manifesting the appearance of a true dragon. The most helpless thing about the Eastern Han Dynasty was that the emperors took turns. When I came to my house this year, the previous generations of emperors were all members of the clan.
Selected.
This also led to the fact that the Han clan clan members in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were actually candidates for emperor, and now Liu Bei is the most likely candidate to ascend to the throne, so the golden dragon manifested, but in the end the meat was rotten in his own Liu family's pot, unlike other families.
It doesn't matter.
Cao Cao's appearance of a dragon means that Cao Cao will achieve the highest position in the world. As for what this position is, whether it is the emperor or the prime minister, it depends on the emperor's magnanimity.
If he really had the magnanimity of an emperor for eternity, he would be able to control a mere dragon if he wanted to. He wouldn't take it to heart at all, because the heart of an emperor encompasses the world. Even a real dragon can be controlled by a mere dragon.
.
However, Liu Xie does not have the magnanimity of an emperor for eternity. To be precise, although Liu Xie is smart, he is really just a little smart, and his personality is a bit too cool.
Therefore, when I saw Cao Cao's appearance as a dragon, I did not think that Cao Cao would become a powerful minister, but directly concluded that Cao Cao would usurp his position.
Just because of this little difference in thinking, the originally good relationship between Liu Xie and Cao Cao suddenly had a crack.
As for Guan Yu's Qinglong, as a holy spirit, something that belongs to the protector of the country, it has never been said that it was a Qinglong that counterattacked the great treasure of the family or the country. Therefore, although Guan Yu's Qinglong looks proud, Liu Xie has given it a certain
Be the pillar of the country.
For the ancient emperors, the golden dragon was just the golden dragon. The threat of other dragons to the golden dragon was not as great as that of the dragons that had not yet transformed. Because the dragon became a dragon, it was shaped and shaped from the heart. If you are a blue dragon, it is the pillar of the country. If you are a fire dragon,
That is to do things of destruction.
Only the brilliant golden dragon symbolizes the emperor. In fact, the so-called golden dragon is the yellow dragon. As for dragons of other colors, the emperor will regard them as talents and will not consider them as threats when they encounter them.
As for the dragon, how should I say it? Dragons that have not ascended are collectively called dragons, but dragons do not have five definite virtues. Maybe they will be dragons all their lives. Maybe they will turn into golden dragons one day in the wind and rain. Who knows what will happen?
Something happened.
Therefore, for Liu Xie, Cao Cao, who had become Panlong, was a great threat to him. After all, there is another way of saying Panlong is Qianlong who has not yet soared into the sky!
In short, this was a very irritating news for Liu Xie, especially when dozens of lights of luck flew from the sky and fell on Cao Cao's subordinates. Dozens of people directly showed signs of luck, which made Liu Xie extremely
It's embarrassing, none of them are my subordinates.
Well, in Liu Xie's view, those were Cao Cao's people, not Han people. Especially after the appearance of Panlong, Liu Xie no longer considered Cao Cao to be a Han official.
Liu Xie always believed that he was the unique emperor of the Han Dynasty, and everything should belong to him. Of course, the reality was that many things did not belong to him, even the light of luck was waved in front of him for the first time in the Han Dynasty.
, hit him hard in the face.
Looking at Guan Yu's Qinglong, Xun Yu's Qilin, Dian Wei's Xing Tian, Cao Cao's Panlong, and even Cao Hong showed a brave figure, at that time Liu Xie was extremely angry and angry!
Angry Cangtian didn't open his eyes, angry that he didn't live up to expectations, and the angry ministers actually ignored him. After seeing the messy appearance of the strange beast, Liu Xie angrily shook his sleeves and left, but he didn't know that because of that sleeve,
The dragon shadow in the sky over Chang'an became increasingly thin again.
Even Liu Bei knew that the golden dragon's luck in the sky of Jizhou was his own. His luck was manifested by the Qi of the people, officials, and every capable minister and official present under his rule. But that was his Qi.
transport.
This is Liu Bei's self-confidence. Although he will not obtain the position of emperor or go to Yue, he knows one thing, that is, in the five states, except for him, no one else is qualified to enjoy the golden dragon.
.
Chen Xi did not recognize him as his master. Liu Bei knew it very well. However, Liu Bei did not mind if Chen Xi continued like this. What Chen Xi gave him was never the emperor's strategy. Chen Xi chose the most correct path for him from the beginning.
.
"There is nothing more important than strengthening yourself and mastering every power in your hands." Chen Xi taught Liu Bei this way, and Liu Bei learned this way.
Therefore, Liu Bei finally successfully learned how to reward meritorious deeds, punish mistakes, and to seize military power. Although Liu Bei was just a face-sitter when it came to governing the country and did not do much, Liu Bei firmly controlled the five states.
.
Put the right people in the right positions, don't restrict them, do what you are good at, the emperor may not have mental skills, but the snake has no head, he needs to be the leader, even if no one knows he is the leader,
As long as he holds the power that only a leader can have, that's all.
"Before you cross the bottom line, Mr. Xuande, you need to tolerate it, but after it crosses the bottom line, don't be polite. Although I take the altar very seriously, it is not necessary." Chen Xi was very casual about Liu Bei's monarch education.
, so lax that the monarch cannot be seen.
Being gentle and gentle can unite people, but being vigorous and resolute must also be shown at certain times. It can be looked down upon or ignored by others, but when you need to stand up, you must show your power as a monarch. You don’t need to be brushed off all the time.
For your own sense of existence, remember that the sharpest sword in the world is in your hands.
Keep a low profile and be a low-key person, but the sword must be in your hand. Only with the sword in your hand can your words have weight. Don't care how others argue. Anyone who wants to take away the sword in your hand is an enemy. Don't care if it is for your own good.
Or for some reason, you have to hold on to the sword!
With the sword in your hand and the mighty virtue in your body, you are the monarch, everything else is empty, be it benevolence or virtue, just do what you should do!
As long as you hold the sword, your benevolence is true benevolence. Without the sword and the power to implement this benevolence, your kindness can only be hypocrisy. Controlling the sword with benevolence is the sword of the king!
Liu Bei did not understand the emperor's mentality. Liu Bei's delegation of power seemed to Cao Cao to be a hole in the brain. However, while Liu Bei gained the loyalty of his subordinates, he also fully understood Chen Xi's education. This is also an emperor's mentality, but it is more concise and more suitable.
A person like myself.
Therefore, Liu Bei can confidently say that he is the boss of the five states of Qingxu, Jiyan, and Yu, and he is a real boss. He represents the army of swords and the rewards and punishments of checks and balances. He has never let go. He only needs to grasp this.
Two parts, no one can shake his position!
This is why Liu Bei has basically no sense of presence in the political power. Most of the time, Chen Xi handles it on his behalf, because it is not needed. Liu Bei knows how to govern the country based on people's livelihood, and no one is better than Chen Xi. Liu Bei also knows that even if all people's livelihood is handed over to Chen Xi,
He and Chen Xi will not change either.
This change does not refer to changes in people's hearts. Liu Bei knew Chen Xi's character, and he knew even more clearly that after Chen Xi taught him the alternative emperor's mental skills, no matter who sat in Chen Xi's position, he could not be shaken.
This is self-confidence, this is the kingly way. Even if all the non-military strength of the economy, people's livelihood, culture, and diplomacy are given to others, as long as Liu Bei himself is fine, the worst he can do is to fight another must-win battle. No matter how bad the situation is, it will not matter.
It's worse than when Taishan was built.
What's more, is it possible for all those soft powers to rebel? This is simply impossible, so Liu Bei knows that he does not need to seize these things. He only needs to seize military power and the appointment and removal of rewards and punishments.
Liu Bei gave Chen Xi the power to appoint and dismiss officials from the five states, but most of the time Chen Xi only appointed and dismissed minor officials with a price of less than 600 shi, and Chen Xi basically did not interfere in the promotion and scheduling of the army. At most, he only gave suggestions. Although Chen Xi's suggestions were iron-clad.
What a ghost.
The result of this is that Liu Bei seems to be very quiet, but Liu Bei firmly holds all the military power. Except for Zhao Yun, military generals rarely appear on Chen Xi's side. Chen Xi has always maintained that he does not have a hand in military and political affairs at the same time.
Of course, the result of this bottom line is that Liu Bei has followed suit. Now Liu Bei rarely appears in the Government Affairs Office, but Liu Bei can basically know all the military positions above the commander of his command. How terrifying this is!
Chen Xi has not yet recognized all the civil servants at the county and county levels in the civil service. As a result, Liu Bei has already recognized all the military officers above the military rank. Even if he occasionally appoints or removes a Yamen general, Liu Bei can recount all the achievements of that person.
come out.
After reaching this level, if someone can mutiny and overthrow Liu Bei, Chen Xi will kneel down directly. At this level, Chai Rong and Li Shimin will be useless. When those middle-level officers with humble backgrounds learned that Liu Bei knew each of them,
The tears shed...
All he had to do was pat his chest and guarantee that he would definitely charge in front and retreat in the rear when going to the battlefield, so the army was really Liu Bei's army. Chen Xi estimated that Liu Bei wandered around the military camp all day just to recognize people...
These things make up Liu Bei's self-confidence. This is the biggest difference between him and Liu Xie. He never needs to grasp all the power in his hands. He only needs to grasp the power that can protect himself and ensure that his rule operates according to his own ideas.
That's enough.
As for other powers, they are not important to Liu Bei. His power of appointment and removal of rewards and punishments is guaranteed by this sword, which is enough for him to display without reservation. Although Liu Bei felt that when Chen Xi was alive, he actually had no regard for the civil servants at all.
Needing care.
Of course, although Liu Bei does not interfere in government affairs, he occasionally brushes up his sense of existence. Although he never thinks that he can have any good solutions, he will solve problems. Nothing can show his existence better than solving problems.
Feeling it.
Although most of the time the problems Liu Bei found were either solved in seconds or studied for a period of time, Liu Bei still enjoyed it. After all, Chen Xi said that finding problems means there is room for improvement.
Therefore, the main thing Liu Bei did was to stabilize the morale of the military and observe the people's livelihood. Liu Bei's methods were very simple. To stabilize the morale of the military, he would go around in the military camp, and to observe the people's livelihood, he would go around the city and outside the city. In short, he would go around everywhere.
Anyway, Liu Bei has a popular face, but his arms are a bit long. He has also been a soldier and sold straw sandals, so he doesn't need to pretend at all. He plays his true self and can easily interact with the middle and lower class people and ordinary soldiers.
Mix into a group.
Therefore, it is very easy for Liu Bei to find out the real situation. He can just talk nonsense. He can find a fellow villager and ask for a bowl of water, and then talk about this year's harvest. In his recent life, what is he still missing? Soon Liu Bei will know what he should know.
Liu Bei's own strength has also been refined into a gang, and there is no problem of being beaten. Moreover, Liu Bei used to work for the masses, so he will not reveal his flaws when chatting, so he is not recognized by others many times.
However, because Liu Bei has many contacts, it is difficult to hide the true situation under his rule from Liu Bei. When Liu Bei finds a problem, he goes to Li You. Li You can basically solve it. If Li You can't solve it, then he goes to Chen Xi. Over the years, in addition to
Liu Bei asked once how to solve corruption...
Therefore, for Liu Bei, let alone Chen Xi squatting with a large nine-tailed white fox, even if Chen Xi squatted with a golden dragon, Liu Bei wouldn't feel too much. He was very confident!
However, this can be regarded as a great success for Chen Xi when he came to the Han Dynasty. Although he did not deliberately promote military and political independence, due to Liu Bei's consciousness, military affairs and government affairs have gradually begun to be separated. Although they were not completely separated, they were
Division of labor also occurred.
This can be considered a good result, but everything has advantages and disadvantages. Chen Xi naturally understands the disadvantages. Sometimes decision-making power really needs to be delegated, so now Chen Xi tries his best to maintain a semi-separation of military affairs and government affairs, but he has not eliminated it.
A situation where both sides are caught.
As for the future, it is actually very clear to Chen Xi that we have reached this point. Experience and history are not enough as evidence. The political environment is what determines what kind of government system will be used in the future. While Chen Xi is changing the times, the times are also assimilating Chen Xi.
Chen Xi can't see clearly the path Liu Bei will take in the future, but Chen Xi is very satisfied with Liu Bei's current situation. If he keeps his current attitude, Chen Xi is confident that he can show Liu Bei what it means to transcend his ancestors one day before he grows old.
This is the self-confidence that Chen Xi has. Just like Chen Xi is not worried that Liu Bei will cause trouble to him, he is doing his own thing, and Liu Bei is doing what he should do. They are all lying in the same trench for one goal.
Liu Bei doesn't know, Chen Xi doesn't know, and Liu Xie doesn't know what the human heart is, but both Liu Bei and Chen Xi know the complexity, but Liu Xie doesn't know, so Chen Xi won't test Liu Bei, and Liu Bei, who also holds the sword, doesn't know.
I won't test Chen Xi.
Liu Bei is confident that Chen Xi's sword will not point at him. Although Liu Bei does not know where Chen Xi's sword is, Chen Xi is also confident that Liu Bei's sword will not point at him. He can see that Liu Bei's sword is the heart of the people, the morale of the military, and also the favor.
The heart of a king who pays equal attention to both.
