Chapter 82 Busy

The two came to the sky above Chaoge, used a blind trick, and then took the opportunity to enter the palace. King Zhou went out during this period and announced to the outside world his grand strategy of seclusion and meditation on governing the country, so there were no other court officials except Wen Zhong and others.

Except for the important ministers, no one else knew that he was out. Yang Jian turned into the inconspicuous middle-aged Taoist priest Qinglian layman again. After the two transformed and played, they looked at each other and smiled, and then walked out of the room. The guards outside

Seeing the emperor leaving seclusion, he hurriedly saluted and said hello. King Zhou nodded slightly, expressed his gratitude, and walked out with Yang Jian. After listening to Yang Jian's words, he felt that he should start to cultivate his own imperial mentality.

, can no longer be as casual as before.

When the two came to meet the emperor, King Zhou ordered the ministers to be summoned for a court meeting. After a while, the ministers who heard that the emperor had left the palace hurriedly came to the palace from their homes. When everyone came together, King Zhou said: "

I have called everyone together today, and I have a few things to announce. The first is to confer the Qinglian layman next to me as my Great Shang Guoshi!"

"There has never been a national preceptor in the past. May I ask, Your Majesty, what is a national preceptor?" Wen Zhong asked interestingly. Although Wen Zhong had never seen this Qinglian layman, he had heard it from the soldiers who fought in the Eastern Expedition.

The deeds of this Qinglian layman were revealed. He was able to defeat two monsters easily. Wen Zhong felt that it would be difficult for him to do it himself. Therefore, he admired Yang Jian very much. The most important thing was that this Qinglian layman actually

You can enter and leave the palace at will, and even the palace can come and go with ease. How could Wen Zhong, a veteran of the three dynasties, not understand His Majesty's favor for the Qinglian layman? So he took the opportunity to join in the fun.

King Zhou gave the grand master a satisfied look and replied: "The national preceptor is the master of few people, and he is also the master of the world. The national preceptor is above the ministers and ministers. He does not need to manage politics on weekdays.

When you go to court, you are free and contented, and you can pursue wealth, fame, and fortune at will, and you only need to give some advice when others are in doubt."

After King Zhou Qian finished speaking, the ministers below began to talk about it. An unknown person suddenly found himself in a high position, so of course they had to pay special attention to it. However, although the position of national preceptor has a high status, it does not have much power.

Affecting their interests, besides, since His Majesty has already spoken out, they will naturally not argue for such a nice-sounding but unprofitable position. Besides, now that the emperor's reputation is getting stronger, they do not dare to refute the emperor's opinions on ordinary matters.

Resolution. However, the ministers in the army did actively support it. Many of them were generals who had participated in the Eastern Expedition and had seen Yang Jian's heroic deeds with their own eyes. It was a matter of respect and admiration for the strong in the army, so they naturally would not object.

King Zhou saw that there was no objection from everyone, so he announced two strategies that he and Yang Jian had discussed. First, recruit talents from all walks of life, regardless of their origins, and recruit those who are talented.

Second, build a large-scale Star Picking Tower in the palace for the emperor to meditate and recuperate.

The first strategy is to select talents from the poor and humble, and then slowly improve the status of hard work. After all, this matter cannot be a cluster of two games, and there will be a slave liberation movement all at once. In that case, I am afraid that he himself will be the first

It is about to be revolutionized. The second strategy is to build a place to carry out some modernization and develop some high-tech weapons to slowly and effectively change the situation of the army.

Among these two new decrees, King Zhou thought that the ministers would have objections to the waste of money and people to build the Star Tower. Unexpectedly, this one was approved by everyone and was considered as it should be. The first one "Only use talents."

He met with fierce opposition from everyone, including Zhao Qi, Mei Bo and other "loyal ministers" whom he usually relied on. However, Wen Zhong came from a Taoist sect and didn't think much of it, while Shang Rong got the emperor's look and kept silent.

King Zhou was very surprised. The general opinion of those opponents was that those humble poor people or even slaves must not be employed. Only the clan and nobles are the pillars that big businessmen can really rely on. Since there is currently no talent recruitment system like the imperial examination system

In the examination, becoming an official depends either on the power of the clan or the recommendation of nobles and celebrities. Except for a few talents from the lower classes who were lucky enough to become small officials, the rest were basically lost. King Zhou saw it in the market

There have been many such talents.

Facing the fierce opposition from his ministers, King Zhou couldn't help but get angry. He thought that Yang Jian was right. These clan members either adhered to the ancestral system or only considered the interests of their own small groups. How could they ever

Looking at the overall situation, if this development continues, there will be fewer and fewer real talents. We cannot rely on the talents of the emperor to support the entire country! These people do not even care about the interests of the country for their own vested interests. These are the so-called

What loyal ministers! King Zhou felt a little tired for a while, exhausted physically and mentally. He might have the ability to change the situation, but these loyal ministers blocked the implementation of the New Deal so strongly for the sake of profit.

Yang Jian looked at King Zhou's expression and knew that he was a little discouraged. Yang Jian sighed and thought: "After all, he has only come to this world not long ago! Of course he will panic when facing this situation!" But Yang Jian now

His status also made it difficult to say anything at the court meeting. He had no choice but to use his mind to send a message to King Zhou: "Rebut them with what the wise prime minister Fu said during the Wu Ding period!"

King Zhou's eyes lit up and he said: "Okay, shut up, everyone!" King Zhou looked at the indignant ministers and said what Yang Jian had noticed: "In the past, when the Holy Lord Wu Ding came to the throne, he did not have any good assistants.

, I didn’t say anything for three years! Later, I got a virtuous prime minister to tell me, and then I got great governance and restored prosperity. I ask you, where is this virtuous prime minister to tell you, where did he come from?"

The ministers all bowed their heads and remained silent. Zhao Qi was bold and stepped forward and said: "Fu said that the virtuous prime minister is the virtuous man entrusted by God and the sage in his dream. This is indeed extraordinary."

King Wu Ding of Shang Dynasty was an emperor with great ambitions and great ambition. After he came to the throne, he could not find an ideal right-hand man among the nobles. He did not express his political opinions for three years, and the major affairs were left to the internal ministers. Until he found a good talent, Fu Shuo, but this Fu Shuo

It is said that he was born a slave. Wu Ding knew that the clear hierarchy of nobles and humbles was a "thunder pool" that was difficult to surpass in the Shang Dynasty. If he chose talents in an eclectic way, he would inevitably encounter firm opposition from the princes and dignitaries. Therefore, he used the subjects' belief in ghosts and gods to make up a story:

God sent a dream to introduce a saint who could assist the government in the realm of the kingdom. For this reason, Fu Shuo, who was doing hard labor, was successfully promoted to an official, and finally became the prime minister. It was with Fu Shuo's assistance that he was able to achieve that goal.

The famous "Wu Ding's Golden Age".
