Chapter 67: It's not about pride, it's about self-confidence
…
Before the meal, Chen Xi looked at Lu Su curiously. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that Mi Zhu was making frequent gestures to Lu Su, but Lu Su neither expressed any intention to refuse nor to join. What was this?
The situation, is this guy here to visit and travel?
Chen Xi didn't know what was going on, and Lu Su himself was in a daze. Although he didn't have much experience, he had the style of a powerful family head for many years. Naturally, he could tell that everything Liu Bei did was not just pretentious. It could be said that he showed his true feelings, which is why he was relatively
Yuan Shu, who came to Hu Lai, Liu Bei obviously met his criteria for choosing a master.
In addition, Mi Zhu had surrendered and left himself in this neither embarrassing nor embarrassing situation. It would have been a good choice to follow Mi Zhu's instructions and surrender. In Lu Su's view, the great governance of the world has little to do with the monarch's personal morality.
As long as the public morality is passable and the people dare to employ people, there will naturally be talented people to govern the world. It is not in line with Lu Su's idea to have to do everything personally.
After all, Duke Huan of Qi once asked Guan Zhong honestly, "Xiangguo, you said that I like beauties, horse racing, and hunting. I can't walk when I see treasures. This will not affect my ability to become the overlord." Chen Xi guessed Qi.
When Duke Huan said this, his voice definitely got lower and lower as he spoke, and he became less and less confident as he spoke it. When he finally said it, he felt that it was a bit too much.
But Guan Zhong's answer was interesting. He glanced at Duke Huan of Qi and said, "It doesn't matter." When Chen Xi read this section, she was thinking that Guan Zhong probably didn't bother to answer. These are nothing.
Duke Huan of Qi was overjoyed and asked, "What will influence me to become the boss?"
Guan Zhong answered solemnly this time, and said with a solemn expression, "Understanding the Magi, knowing the Magi but not appointing them, appointing them but not trusting them, trusting them while allowing other villains to blindly participate, these things will affect the king's hegemony."
After hearing this, Duke Huan of Qi handed over the position of Prime Minister to Guan Zhong and asked him to manage the country, and then he became the overlord.
Lu Su also believed in Guan Zhong's theory. The world cannot be governed by the king alone. What the king has to do is to select and appoint talents. As for the problem of the king himself, Lu Su believed in the principle that the subordinates should not blame the superiors for their faults.
, Guan Zhong did not say that Duke Huan of Qi was greedy for money, and future generations have nothing to say favorably about him.
Ever since Lu Su met Chen Xi, who was under the age of twenty to govern Taishan County under the orders of Liu Bei, he was immediately satisfied with Liu Bei's meritocratic approach. Isn't this a model of a monarch in his mind? It doesn't matter if he is under the age of ten, as long as he has
Capable monarchs should be included in the selection process. The capable ones will be promoted and the mediocre ones will be demoted. Isn't the story of Gan Luo worshiping the prime minister an eternal story?
As for the monarch's personal virtues, Lu Su did not have many requirements. Whether it was generosity and kindness or greed for money, as long as the meritocracy was still the same country, it would only be a little headache for his subordinates. As long as the monarch still kept the world at heart, then his subordinates
At most, it's just a headache, and it won't cause someone to magically disappear from the world.
It is precisely because of these concepts that after seeing the actions of Chen Xi and Liu Bei, Lu Su actually recognized Liu Bei, but he was still entangled in his previous thoughts. He said that he would visit Taishan County more and wait until he fully understood.
After considering Liu Bei's character before deciding whether to join, Lu Su felt that it would be too hasty to join directly now.
"Zichuan, Zijing will be entertained by you. I think you two must have a lot to talk about. If Zizhong doesn't give up, just stay here tonight, Zhongkang." Liu Bei said with a smile, saying that Chen Xi had many things to say before.
I finally understood the meaning of this gesture, so I made this unnatural move.
"Thank you, Mr. Xuande." Chen Xi smiled slightly. He wanted to know how Lu Su, a famous minister from the Three Kingdoms, evaluated his actions in Mount Tai, whether they were good or bad, and what mistakes or omissions there were.
After leaving Liu Bei's gate, Lu Su finally reacted, turned to look at Chen Xi and cupped his hands, "Chen Juncheng is really favored by Duke Xuande..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Lu Su finally realized what was wrong. Ever since he met Liu Bei and Chen Xi, he had never seen Chen Xi call Liu Bei his lord. Moreover, when greeting him, Chen Xi only took half a step back and did not follow Liu Bei.
He smiled bitterly, why didn't he think of such a simple method? Sure enough, the simplest method will always be forgotten.
"You and I are almost the same age, so we can't be called cousins." After saying that, Chen Xi took off the crown from his head, showing Lu Su's sincerity.
Lu Su was stunned. He understood that going to the Banquet of Crowns was a free and equal way of communication, but you were too bold and careless to do this on the road. It is said that at this time, the streets were full of mist.
The people in front of them must be all gangsters, but they didn’t say anything. They just silently took off their hair crowns and said, "Sorry for the disrespect, have Zichuan always been so eclectic?"
"It's just that my head is itchy." Chen Xi scratched it twice and casually pressed the hair crown on his head.
"Hahaha, Zichuan is indeed a wonderful person." Now Lu Su was not as smooth as before. Seeing that Chen Xi didn't care, he laughed.
"Let's go to my house for tea, and tell me what you think of Mount Tai." Chen Xi shook his long hair and said with a smile on his face.
"Okay, I have a lot to ask you Chen Zichuan!" Lu Su said arrogantly without any restraint.
"Then let's strategize and see if you, Dongcheng Lu Zijing, can refute me, Taishan Chen Zichuan!" Chen Xi laughed.
Chen Xi and Lu Su sat down separately, and soon Chen Lan brought the food, while Fan Jian left after a while, closing the door behind him before leaving.
"When I met you Lu Zijing, I thought you would have questions to ask me. Let's take a look. Unfortunately, there is no good late-night snack, so let's make do with it." Chen Xi gave Lu Su a glass of glutinous rice, "Wine.
There’s nothing like that, just drink some of this, it’s quite sweet recently.”
"Zichuan is so sure that I will have questions to ask you?" Lu Su smiled and asked, "Aren't you afraid that my words will be flattery."
"I also accept flattery. After all, this is all due to my achievements. I have established a solid general in charge of the warehouse, and I am about to teach you etiquette. Is it ever possible for me to accept flattery?" Chen Xi laughed and scolded, "I, Chen Zichuan, do my work, okay.
You will naturally accept praise, and if you make mistakes, you will not be criticized and corrected."
"As for why you are sure that you have questions to ask, it's very simple. The wisest people in the world cross Mount Tai without thinking are definitely not wise men. I, Chen Zichuan, do not look down on the world, but I am confident that what I have done before is enough to inspire all those who pass by.
The wisdom of the wise here." Chen Xi looked arrogant, "Those who can see the problem must be the wise in the world, those who can feel the problem but don't know where the problem is must be the backbone of the country, and those who are just watching the flowers are just mediocre ministers!"
