Chapter 1187: The Most Beautiful Man in the World's Road to Power (18)
However, at this time, Xu Xi united with several famous celebrities in the world to recommend Gu Mo to the court.
Anyway, just one sentence: This is the person who can save your Sima family and the world, and he is also the person who can save you southern aristocratic families. It's up to you.
The current emperor is still a seven-year-old child and has just ascended the throne.
He was put on the throne by an aristocratic family in a confused state during a chaos among the kings. Now the person who can call the shots in the court is naturally the aristocratic family.
The person who could make the decision on behalf of the emperor was none other than Grand Sima Huanlin.
After Huan Lin heard Xu Xi's comments, she immediately sent people to Gujiapu to recruit Gu Mo to join the court and worship him as Taifu.
In fact, he is the little emperor's teacher.
Huan Lin had great power in the government, so if she wanted to reuse Gu Mo, she would place Gu Mo next to him instead of next to the little emperor.
It can be seen from this position that he had no intention of recruiting Gu Mo to join the court. He was just afraid that Gu Mo, who was really a talented person in running the country and bringing peace to the country, would fall into the hands of other aristocratic families and cause trouble for him due to Xu Jian's comments.
trouble.
On the Gujiabao side, they were also discussing whether Gu Mo should give face to the court.
"Master of the fort, with the strength of Gujiabao, we will be able to compete with the imperial court in the near future. Why should we seek refuge with the imperial court?"
This meaning couldn't be more obvious. They supported Gu Mo's direct rebellion against the imperial court.
Anyway, the Jing Dynasty regime was snatched away from the previous regime by those two brothers.
"I remember that when you first came here, I had a long conversation with you all night long. I said that I never care about personal fame. If you want to follow me, you'd better put these things aside."
Gu Mo glanced at everyone and said: "I will have only one goal until my death, to unify the north and the south and bring peace to the world."
Everyone fell silent and realized that they seemed to be floating.
Gu Mo, on the other hand, firmly knew what he wanted from beginning to end, was calm and rational, and was not blinded by the upcoming glory and wealth.
So this is why Gu Mo can be their lord, and they can only be subordinates.
Everyone then bowed their hands to show how ashamed they were.
Gu Mo added: "If I am strong, if I raise an army, I can really stabilize the world in the shortest time, I can also bear the reputation of this traitor. But in the current situation, if I raise an army and build another court, that is
It will only increase the war troubles in the world, and the people below Gujiabao will also experience the pain of war again."
"But Master, the imperial court is now controlled by aristocratic families. How can it be worth your while to lend your talents to it?"
In the autumn of troubled times, the world is constantly changing, and this is actually the time when talents are needed.
However, the current imperial court is in sharp contrast with the needs of society.
The children of aristocratic families can hold important positions in the court simply by virtue of their birthplace, but while occupying the positions, they never do anything serious.
When I'm bored, I just invite a lot of friends to have a casual chat party at home or gather together for a five-stone meal or drink.
If you want to be an official, you have to talk, take drugs, drink and build connections with them.
If you become an official and want to rise, you should continue to talk to them, take drugs and drink, and sink into oblivion together, imitating them who do not seek political advice in their positions.
The general ethos of the entire imperial court was that it was fashionable to not do any practical work and to sit down and eat plain meals.
Whenever you engage in affairs, you will be squeezed out.
A country with Taoism will be wise, but a country without Taoism will be foolish. Not everyone has the courage to throw an egg against a stone and a moth to fly into the fire in troubled times.
More people choose to protect themselves wisely.
This is why real talents are unwilling to become officials in the court, and they only hold idle positions in the court.
Like Huan Lin, I can do whatever I want because he has all the power.
And he was able to dominate the government because he came from a noble family and had family resources to support him.
And Gu Mo...
Once you enter the court, you are someone else's minister. You have no foundation at all. How can you talk about having power over the government?
Gu Mo took another sip of wolfberry and red date tea and said, "Whether the court changes, the aristocratic family will always be there."
Now is not the time to eradicate the aristocratic family.
Because the lower class people are illiterate and have never read, all educational resources are concentrated on the upper class nobles.
Not to mention whether the aristocratic family is so easy to eradicate, but after the aristocratic family is eradicated, where can we find talents?
The poor family has not yet risen, and eradicating the noble family will only increase the bloodshed and make the world more chaotic.
She can only slowly cultivate a poor family, and can only encroach on the aristocratic family bit by bit just like the Jie people's territory.
The staff were persuaded by Gu Mo and began to discuss some matters regarding Gujia Fort after Gu Mo went to Jiankang City.
The final result of the discussion was to leave Xie Zhao and another older staff member to guard Gujiapu.
However, Xie Zhao protested and wanted to go to Jiankang City with Gu Mo.
Gu Mo sent the others away and asked Xie Zhao why.
"The imperial court is dangerous, and you need someone to protect you."
Gu Mo had previously kidnapped Cui Rong and blackmailed Cui Rong's men. Those men went looking for trouble and kidnapped those men to blackmail the family. He had already offended all the powerful people in Jiankang City.
"You have many talented people, and they all stay in Gujiabao. Gujiabao does not lack me."
Then he looked at Gu Mo, the moonlight shining from the sword seemed to be hidden in his eyes.
"But I am missing from your side."
Not only would the powerful people who had offended him in the past go to Jiankang City with Gu Mo's behavior, they would also do more hateful things.
Without him by his side, Gu Mo would have been eaten alive.
Gu Mo thought about it and thought it made sense.
She has nothing to worry about at Gujiabao. In addition to the staff who were originally scholars, she has also trained many children of the Gu family and poor families over the years, and they can definitely take charge of Gujiabao.
Those aristocratic families had attacked Gujiabao before, but Huan Lin realized that Gujiabao was a powerful barrier blocking Wuhu from going south.
As long as Sima Huan doesn't take action against Gujiabao, those aristocratic families can't do anything against Gujiabao.
"Then you come with me to get healthy."
Xie Zhao achieved his goal and left without saying anything more.
Gu Mo said: "Wait."
Xie Zhao turned around and saw her carrying a cloth bag and placing it on the table.
Xie Zhao looked at Gu Mo and asked Gu Mo, what is this?
Gu Mo, “Yongzhou produces the best wolfberry.”
Xie Zhao, "..."
Gu Mo said: "Those who are capable work harder, and the more they work, the more likely they will get old. Young people should start taking care of themselves now."
Xie Zhao, "I understand."
From then on, Xie Zhao also followed Gu Mo's example and took a cup of wolfberry tea with him wherever he went.
Even when fighting, the cup was attached to the horse's back.
Within a few days, Gu Mo set off for Jiankang.
The people of Gujiapu came to see her off and were very reluctant to part with her.
Gu Mo is their backbone, their reassurance.
As long as Gu Mo was in Gujiapu, they had no worries.
But now that Gu Mo was leaving, their hearts became uneasy.
"Fortmaster, if you leave here, when will you come back?"
