Section 144 Application in accordance with aptitude
"My minister Ning Cheng pays homage to His Highness..." Ning Cheng walked carefully to the palace and paid homage.
"Raise your head..." Liu De said softly.
Ning Cheng raised his head carefully, and Liu De saw that this person did have the appearance of a tiger and a wolf, which reminded Liu De of some gangsters he had seen wandering outside his school when he was a student a long time ago.
It is said that love comes from the heart. Although this statement is outrageous, it is indeed qualified for Ning Cheng.
In Liu De's previous life, Ning Cheng was a powerful figure in the world. He took over the banner of Zhidu and taught the princes of Chang'an City to obey him, and no one dared to make mistakes.
This illustrates his ability.
However, unlike Zhidu, Zhidu is honest and loyal, while Ningcheng is greedy.
His greed has almost no limits.
And his courage is astonishing.
Liu De even heard that he actually dared to blackmail the princes and kings!
From the bottom of his heart, Liu De didn't like Ning Cheng at all. It could even be said that he hated people like Ning Cheng.
Because people like Ning Cheng have no fear in their hearts.
As long as he has enough profits, he can do anything.
No ruler would like such a minister very much, and would even kill one if he finds one!
However, who has achieved great things since ancient times without a few ruffians and scoundrels under his command?
Evil people must be punished by evil people. There are some things that a gentleman like Yan Yi and a generous and honest person like Ji An really can't handle.
Even the compassionate monks of later generations know that they need to cultivate Angry-Eye Vajra. As a king, you don’t have many mad dogs at your disposal, so you won’t be able to see anyone when you go out!
"Are you from Nanyang?" Liu De asked, flipping through Ning Cheng's resume.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Ning Cheng replied cautiously. Although he had asked Zhang Tang about Liu De's preferences before coming here, he did not dare to be careless after having personal contact with them.
"Nanyang is a great place..." Liu De said with a smile: "Since ancient times, there have been outstanding people and talented people!"
"Which Legalist classics are you studying?" Liu De asked suddenly. At this time, the Legalists were divided into three mountains. Be cautious of the importance of the situation, and do not harm the techniques. Han Fei emphasized the law, and each had its own merits.
long.
"Your Highness, what I have learned is from Duke Shen..." Ning Cheng replied.
"Oh..." Liu De nodded. This is the opposite. Shen Buhai's knowledge has a fatal weakness. That is the over-emphasis on the importance of skills. To put it simply, it means doing whatever it takes to achieve the goal.
"If one day the clans in a certain county run rampant and cannot be controlled by two thousand stones, how can you be in charge of the government?" Liu De threw out a big pie to tempt Ning Cheng. On the surface, he was asking Ning Cheng how to deal with it, but in fact he was hinting at Ning Cheng.
If it works, he can be made a county governor in the future.
The Ningcheng family has been officials for generations, so they naturally have the ability to observe people's emotions and interpret words.
After hearing Liu De's words, Ning Cheng was overjoyed.
He thought for a while and said, "If I serve the government, I will just kill them all!"
This is his cleverness.
Liu De first asked about his school of thought, and then asked about his teachers and disciples. If he still answered about benevolence and virtue, he would be lying.
What's more, this is indeed a simple, crude, convenient and effective way for the Legalist ministers to govern the local area.
The landlords are too powerful and control the local discourse. What should we do if the government orders are not passed? Kill!
The clan is strong and tyrannical, what should we do? Kill!
What should I do if the nobles are arrogant and domineering and violate the laws of the country? Or kill them!
One of the famous officials in the world, Zhou Yangyou, the governor of Hedong County, who was in charge of Hedong County, was an outstanding representative among them.
Since he took power in Hedong, he has killed more than a hundred powerful people, and the local area has been silent. In Hedong, his name can even stop children from crying at night.
And Liu De also needs such an answer.
Clan and powerful people are always a worry for kings. If you want to centralize power, you must cut off those intertwined clan forces.
As the Han Dynasty is so large, there will always be clan forces that appear in places that ordinary officials can't help. At this time, it is time to release people like Ning Cheng to overcome obstacles and go on a killing spree.
"I would like to ask you to be my minister first, and I will give you an official position someday!" Liu De said to Ning Cheng with his hands in hand.
For Liu De, the biggest use of Ning Cheng's sharp knife is the upcoming autumn harvest.
It is impossible for those grain merchants to be honest without killing them and causing a river of blood!
After saying that, he took out a talisman, handed it to Ning Cheng solemnly, and said: "Be careful of arrogance and arrogance, and be honest and honest. Please remember this!"
"No!" Ning Cheng bowed before retreating.
Next, there was Zheng, who had nothing to say.
It was nothing more than a replica of what Yan Yi did. Liu De also appointed him as an emissary and sent him to Zhang Tang to help Zhang Tang handle affairs and organize official documents.
A person like Zheng who had no independent opinions at that time could be most effective under a person like Zhang Tang who was full of independent opinions and determined.
Then there are Gu Zhenrou and Jin Shi. Both of them are descendants of Chehou. They have prominent family backgrounds and have made some achievements in their previous lives. Liu De thought twice and assigned these two people to Ju Meng to assist Ju Meng in restraining them.
Working with the rangers who manage Chang'an and forming good relationships with aristocratic families not only trains their abilities, but on the other hand, their aristocratic status helps Ju Meng better deal with the large and small nobles of Chang'an.
"The next one is Master Yan, right?" Liu De asked Wang Dao.
"Back to Your Highness, yes!" Wang Dao replied.
"Yes!" Liu De nodded. Liu De was still looking forward to his master Fuyan. Putting aside his personal ethics, all the things this man did had a profound impact on future generations.
The policy of cutting down the vassals completely solved the problem of the feudal lords remaining in power. The theory of grand unification became the unchanging truth of Chinese politics for the next two thousand years. No matter whether it was the Five Chaos that disrupted China or the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, it could not change the realization of China's final unification.
What's interesting is that in the previous life, the master's father died at the hands of Gongsun Hong.
But in this life, the master Fuyan entered the official position before Gongsun Hong...
So, what will happen when these two enemies meet in this life?
This made Liu De very curious!
Not long after, Master Fu Yan walked in under the leadership of the eunuchs, bowed to Liu De and said: "My Lord Fu Yan, I would like to pay my respects to Your Highness!"
"Please get up..." Liu De sat on his seat, flipping through the articles and test papers written by his father Yan, looked at them, and asked: "How do you feel about your journey from Linzi to Zhongshan and around Yanzhao?"
The master's father thought for a while, and then combined it with some information about Liu De that he had inquired about before. Then he boldly said: "The country is magnificent and the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and I am fascinated by them. However, the princes are domineering and lawless, occupying local people's fields and bullying.
Weak things happen from time to time. If things go on like this, I am afraid that the country will be destroyed and the country will be in danger of overthrow..." Anyway, Zhongshan, Yanzhao and other princes and kings never gave him any benefit. They even humiliated him and arrested him.
Seizing the opportunity, Master Fuyan immediately retaliated.
"You dare to say that!" Liu De laughed. People from the Zongheng faction like to say these things. Fan Sui, Zhang Yi, Su Qin, etc. are all like this.
"Let's not talk about the affairs of the princes for now..." Liu De waved his hand, interrupting Master Fu Yan's intention to continue talking. Liu De knew very well that it was not his turn to worry about the affairs of the princes, let alone Master Fu Yan's turn to discuss them.
He stood up, walked to his father Yan, and said: "Your arithmetic is good, and the logical thinking in the articles you write is quite innovative. For the time being, I would like to ask you to be my servant, to make overall plans, organize accounts and official documents for me.
Are you willing?"
Although he is said to be a warrior, he is actually just an attendant with the title of warrior. He has no power at all, but he has a lot of work. In particular, in order to prepare for the upcoming autumn harvest, Liu De plans to reorganize Chang'an.
In the city, at least the order and commerce of the three cities under his jurisdiction, on the one hand, he made some money, and on the other hand, he made some political achievements. Otherwise, others would think that he was just a talker.
And where do political achievements come from?
There is only one answer, taxes!
Taking money from a businessman is like taking food from a tiger's mouth.
What's more, Liu De's plan is not just as simple as grabbing money, but as easy as raising taxes.
In short, his plan is eight words: crack down on monopolies and support small and medium-sized enterprises.
If he wants to handle this matter well before the autumn harvest, Liu De must use all his strength and means.
The location of Zhufu Yan is particularly important.
Upon hearing this, Master Yan immediately bowed deeply and said, "I am willing to die for Your Highness!"
Huh? When Liu De heard this, he felt a little relieved and said, "I'm quite grateful. It's not in vain that I value you..."
Before Zhu Fu Yan, everyone else was just serving, but Zhu Fu Yan said he would die. Obviously, this Zhu Fu Yan currently has the highest loyalty value.
In this case, Liu De would inevitably have to be beaten.
He took out the bamboo slip given to him by Ji An from his arms, handed it to his father Yan, and said, "Uncle Fan can beat Xu Jia because he is the prime minister. Do you think you are the prime minister now?"
"I value your talent very much, but I'd better correct this childish problem!" Liu De said with a smile. This Master Fuyan is indeed a bit childish. You can just do some things quietly. If you have to,
Speaking it out openly is like the villain in a TV series who must tell the protagonist his plan before winning. As a result, the boat capsizes in the gutter, and he is directly counterattacked and beaten into a slag.
The master's father looked at the bamboo slips and listened to Liu De's words. He was sweating profusely and knelt on the ground, at a loss.
Liu De laughed out loud, handed the command talisman to his master Yan, patted his shoulder, and encouraged him: "The sea is open to all rivers, and there is room for it. You are happy with your grudges. It is certainly cool, but have you ever heard of that outstanding person?"
Are you a person who will retaliate for your anger and care about everything? Even the Marquis of Huaiyin can forgive the humiliation of stepping down!"
"After you go down, you will spend more time with Ji An. An elder can tolerate others' intolerance!" Liu De said with a smile.
After hearing this, Master Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I will obey His Highness's teachings and will always keep them in mind!"
"Good!" Liu De nodded. As for whether Master Fu Yan could listen, Liu De didn't know, but at least being with Ji An would make Master Fu Yan a little more powerful, more tolerant, and less domineering.
Maybe this arrangement can save his life in the future!
In fact, the people and things Liu De arranged were all targeted.
Yan Yi is a gentleman, so Liu De keeps him by his side as his frontman and at the same time cultivates him well.
Ning Cheng is a mad dog and most people can't watch it, so Liu De takes care of it personally and tightens the chain.
Gu Zhenrou and Jin Shi were born into nobles and lived in two different worlds from the common people. So, they went to Ju Meng's side. On the one hand, it was to exercise their abilities and increase their knowledge. At the same time, it might as well give them a way to contact common people.
People's lives, opportunities to understand people's sufferings.
The master's father Yan is narrow-minded and will retaliate for his anger, and Liu De himself is not a good person, so he can only ask Ji An to discipline and supervise him.
"Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude is not the same as doing politics?" Liu De thought to himself: "As long as the right people are placed in the right positions, even the most bad guy in the world can make useful contributions to society!"
PS: Well, there will be another chapter 3000 and one chapter 2000 in the evening~

Well, I don’t know what happened this afternoon. My cheeks are a little sore and swollen. It’s so annoying!
