Rebirth God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 5014: Promoted to Minister of War

Taking an official career is also the choice of the Sima family. The system of selecting talents in Jin State has made it a lot more difficult for the children of aristocratic families to enter the officialdom. But will the children of the Sima family still be afraid of such a challenge? Not only the Sima family, but also many Rich families also have the same choice.

After Jin unified the world, it was simply impossible to overthrow Lu Bu's rule. Under such circumstances, only by better cooperating with Lu Bu could their family have the possibility of continuing and stand on the opposite side of Jin. Above, what happened in the past was their fate.

When it comes to Lu Bu's treatment of the aristocratic family, the children of the aristocratic family have many complaints, but now, they can only bury such complaints deeply in their hearts and dare not reveal them. After the Jin Kingdom unified the world, its influence It is getting bigger and bigger, and the Jin court has unprecedented control over local areas.

Under such a strict system, just relying on the power of aristocratic families was no longer enough to shake the rule of Jin.

The most important thing is actually the talent selection system of the Jin State. In the past, aristocratic families were able to control the court mainly because the talents of their aristocratic families entered the court and became officials in the court. Through these talents, they achieved influence on the court.

If the imperial court does not appoint children from aristocratic families, it will be a great loss for the imperial court.

However, the differences in the talent selection system of the Jin State allowed more poor families to enter the court and even become important officials in the court. In this way, the influence of the poor families was greatly improved.

There are also many talents among the children from poor families. These talents are different from the children from aristocratic families. They study the books of sages in order to serve the country after entering the officialdom. As long as these officials have certain achievements, they are not simple.

There are many talents in aristocratic families, and there are even more officials from poor families. In terms of population base, it is difficult for talents from aristocratic families to be compared with those from poor families. If this situation continues, more aristocratic families will decline, and there will be more powerful families. Many children from poor families entered the officialdom.

Under such circumstances, the influence of the aristocratic family gradually weakened. It has to be said that Lu Bu's move was to drain the family from the bottom. But under such circumstances, the aristocratic family did not dare to disobey the orders of the Jin State. It happened because Lu Bu used extremely cruel methods when dealing with the rebellious wealthy families.

If you cannot correctly view the rule of the Jin State, you will perish in the Jin State. Such a thing is extremely cruel to the aristocratic families, but what can the aristocratic families living in the Jin State do, unless they want to Let the family be destroyed, otherwise, we can only act in accordance with the Jin system.

Lu Bu's precautions against the aristocratic family have a lot to do with the previous aristocratic families' opposition to Lu Bu. Under such circumstances, it is reasonable for Lu Bu to use more talents from poor families.

However, it is actually impossible for the Jin State to achieve more development just by relying on the power of poor families, because there are more talents among the children of aristocratic families, and the talents they display when governing the place are Children from poor families cannot compare.

In the Jin court, there are many officials from influential aristocratic families. However, they will not have more say in the basic system of Jin. At this time, if they want to make something that goes against the system of Jin things,

Not to mention Lu Bu, will the officials in the world agree?

How many officials come from poor families, especially after the implementation of the imperial examination system, more talents from poor families will enter the officialdom. When these forces are gathered together, it will be terrifying.

Lu Bu's actions towards the aristocratic family made the aristocratic family hate him, but they had no better way to deal with it and could only let the situation go on like this.

If possible, why would the aristocratic family not want to restore their previous prosperity and give them a more stable position in the court?

Facts have proved that Jin's system cannot be shaken at present. If something is done that is detrimental to the development of Jin, the consequences will be serious.

Especially the army of the Jin State, which can sweep away the enemy's army. Not to mention others, it is just the thirty-six generals of the Temple of War. It is difficult to instigate rebellion. Although the generals in the army have special abilities in the army, With a certain amount of power, if these generals betrayed the Jin State, how could the soldiers in the army easily agree?

This is the Jin State, a powerful Jin State, a Jin State that makes people feel fear. Any enemy who stands on the opposite side of the Jin State will feel deep fear.

On the way to the palace, Sima Yi kept thinking about Lu Bu's purpose of summoning him at this time.

In fact, Sima Yi had a hunch that Lu Bu would put him to good use. After all, the success of his mission to the Parthian Empire would be of great help to the Jin army's plans outside the countries in the Western Regions.

Ordinary officials may not be able to see the layout of the Jin State clearly, but with Sima Yi's shrewdness, how could he not see that the emperor of the Jin State is playing a game of chess. If the Jin State plays a steady and victorious game, the Jin State will be beyond the borders of the Western Regions. Achieve complete success, and the strength of Jin will be even more prosperous by then.

The influence of the Jin army will be even greater. It has to be said that Sima Yi is still in awe of Lu Bu's methods.

Being able to rise up in troubled times, conquering the princes supported by aristocratic families, and establishing a powerful Jin State, he even extended his hands to foreign races. The powerful Xianbei people on the grassland and the distant Japanese country all became the territory of the Jin State. Such a monarch has never existed before.

Lu Bu's development method has both advantages and disadvantages for the Jin State. It is actually very difficult for the emperor to have complete control over his rule. If the emperor cannot achieve good control Under control, there will inevitably be some stability.

However, such a thing has not happened in the Jin State at present, and the victory achieved by the Jin army is destined to be recorded in the annals of history.

In the face of such achievements, even officials from aristocratic families cannot remain calm. This is a major event where reputation is spread to future generations. How many literati who have lived in seclusion entered the Jin Dynasty's court for the sake of spreading their reputation.

Whether they are civil servants or military generals, they all attach great importance to their reputation. Some people are even willing to risk their lives for the sake of reputation.

When the strength of the Jin State is strong enough, there is no need to worry about talents seeking refuge. As long as the court issues orders, a steady stream of talents will appear. After the emergence of the imperial examination system, the emperor of the Jin State does not need to worry about talents, but The emergence of these talents has nothing to do with the recommendation of Jin officials.

This can, to a large extent, prevent officials from the DPRK and China from wooing each other and colluding with each other.

After thinking for a long time, Sima Yi didn't understand the matter. He could only shake his head slightly and slowly entered the palace.

Sima Yi had seen Wusun's palace before. It was not huge in scale, but it could still reflect the dignity of the royal family. But now Wusun's royal palace is no longer there, and even King Wusun has become a dead soul under the sword. King Wusun Death was completely expected. It would be the most surprising thing if King Wusun could survive after the war. Lu Bu never had the habit of being soft-hearted when dealing with enemies.

As long as the enemy can be eliminated, they will take action without hesitation. It is precisely because of this persistence that the Jin State can better stabilize the territory it occupies after the war.

Sima Yi believed that with the development of the Jin State, the relationship between the aristocratic family and Lu Bu would gradually ease. Especially as the Jin State gradually became stronger, the philosophy of the aristocratic family and the wealthy family would also change accordingly. Moreover, when more After many children from poor families enter the court, the impact on the aristocratic families will make the aristocratic families lose their influence.

Even if a wealthy family wanted to do anything else, it was impossible. Therefore, what Sima Yi didn't understand was why Lu Bu would be on guard against him. If it was just because of the wealthy family, it wouldn't be necessary.

Unable to understand what was going on, Sima Yi didn't want to give up his past efforts, so he could only try his best to do things for Jin, hoping to improve his status through his own efforts.

Being able to become an official of the Jin State was actually beyond Sima Yi's expectation. In other words, Sima Yi never expected that Lu Bu would have the power to defeat the princes and unify the world.

In the palace, Lu Bu sat casually on the seat that originally belonged to King Wusun, and Guo Jia sat on the seat below Lu Bu.

After Sima Yi saluted, Lu Bu said calmly: "Zhongda, please sit down."

"I accept your order." Sima Yi sat slightly behind. Sima Yi was also more cautious in choosing his position. He currently serves in the Ministry of Rites. Although he has the opportunity to enter the court, he does not have a great say in the matter. Even among officials in the DPRK and China, he holds a very low position.

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Zhongda, it's just me and you here. What's your purpose of being so far away from me?"

"I am afraid and dare not offend the holy face." Sima Yi cupped his hands and said.

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "Okay, there's no need to be so particular. Come forward."

After sitting down again, Lu Bu said: "Zhongda was able to go to the Parthian Empire and achieve an alliance between Parthia and Jin. This is a great achievement. I have always admired Zhongda's ability."

"I have received your Majesty's trust. Even if I die, I will never be able to repay you." Sima Yi said.

Lu Bu said slowly: "Not quite."

When Sima Yi heard this, he was slightly startled, obviously not expecting why Lu Bu would say such words.

"Zhongda made great contributions to the Jin State before, but his status in the court was not greatly improved. He even served in the Ministry of Rites. It would be most strange if Zhongda had no complaints in his heart. It's over." Lu Bu said.

When Sima Yi heard this, he didn't dare to answer.

"This matter was also done intentionally by me. Zhongda's ability is not weak. If he is quickly promoted in a short period of time because of his achievements, it will not be a good thing for Zhongda. Now Zhongda's mission to the Parthian Empire was successful and allowed the Jin State to form an alliance with the Parthian Empire. This matter is of great significance to the development of the Jin State. If there is no reward for such merit, wouldn't it be controversial?" Lu Bu laughed. road.

Sima Yi saluted solemnly and said, "Your Majesty, I am so kind to you. I am deeply grateful."

Speaking of this, Sima Yi's eyes turned red. He had done so many things in Jin just to gain Lu Bu's trust, and to make more contributions to Jin.

Now that the Jin Kingdom has unified the world, do the wealthy families dare to have other ideas?

However, Lu Bu's precautions made it difficult for Sima Yi to get the chance to be promoted. Now Sima Yi finally got the opportunity to display his talents. Lu Bu's words made Sima Yi feel comfortable.

"Zhongda, no matter what position you are in, the key is to work hard. If you work hard, with Zhongda's ability, it is possible to reach a higher position." Lu Bu said.

Sima Yi cupped his hands and said, "I understand."

"From now on, Zhongda will serve in the Ministry of War and be promoted to Minister of War. After returning to Chang'an, the appointment will be made." Lu Bu said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Sima Yi saluted again.

Being able to jump from a less important official in the Ministry of Rites to the Minister of War is a huge promotion.

The Minister of War is an important official of the Ministry of War, and the importance of the Ministry of War is unquestionable. The Ministry of War is responsible for mobilizing the world's armies and has many secrets.

Being able to become the Minister of War is enough to show Lu Bu's trust in him. Years of hard work have finally paid off. Sima Yi also has a lot of emotions in his heart, but in Sima Yi's view, the past efforts are worth it.

Even for the current important officials of the Jin State, their current achievements did not happen overnight. They have made many contributions to the development of the Jin State in the past, and this is why they have a prominent position. Sima Yi was under Cao Cao's leadership. He took refuge when his strength was weak. It was difficult for him to be taken seriously in the Jin Kingdom.

It was precisely because of Sima Yi's extraordinary talent that he was able to stand out in the Jin officialdom.

The Jin State does have many talents at present, but the Jin State has a vast territory, and the officials in the court also need to be replaced, and important officials need to be cultivated. If the training of important officials cannot be started as early as possible, for the future of the Jin State It is detrimental to long-term development.

An official cannot remain stationary in one position, and the same is true for important officials.

At present, the most powerful person in the Jin court is Gu Yong. This disciple of Cai Yong, his current position is no different from that of the prime ministers in previous dynasties.

Among the three provinces and six ministries, Shangshu Province has the most jurisdiction.

Even Gu Yong cannot stay in the position of Shangshu forever. However, as an official from a noble family, it is indeed amazing that Gu Yong can become a Shangshu Ling and stabilize his position in the Jin Kingdom.
