The Nameless of the Common Clans

Chapter 728 Father and Son Chat

Liu Neng finally chose to compromise. If he still had some hidden capital to fight against Chen Mo when Chen Mo just supported him as emperor, then now he has long lost the qualification to continue to fight with Chen Mo. The world was conquered by Chen Mo, the people of the world were also governed by Chen Mo, the officials were appointed by Chen Mo, the salaries were issued by Chen Mo, the army was managed by Chen Mo, and the generals in the army were all Chen Mo's die-hard supporters.

What does Liu Neng have now except a group of old ministers who are no longer interested in him? How can he fight Chen Mo when he has nothing left?

Let alone fighting, Liu Neng now has no qualifications to die with Chen Mo. Since Chen Mo established the Ming Palace, Chen Mo has spent nearly fifteen years to completely transfer the power of the court to the Ming Palace. As Sima Yi said, Chen Mo is now the actual master of the world. How many people in the world still remember the Han Dynasty? Or in other words, is there anything worth four years in the Han Dynasty?

For the people of the world, they have never experienced the rule of the Han Dynasty. Nowadays, many people have lived in war since they were born. The Han Dynasty left them only painful memories such as hunger and war. The person who ended this chaotic world was called Chen Mo, and the person who made them live a life of food and clothing was called Chen Mo. As for the Han Dynasty... who would still remember it? In addition to the descendants of the Han Dynasty, how many people care?

Liu Neng finally agreed, but this abdication is not that simple. Liu Neng needs to ask three times, and Chen Mo has to refuse twice. The third time will formally accept the abdication to show Chen Mo's respect for the Han Dynasty and express the Han Dynasty's sincerity to atone for its own misconduct to the world.

The day Chen Mo decided to become emperor was the first day of the 30th year of the Han Dynasty. The third abdication of the throne needs to be carried out in less than half a year. For the last time, in order to show sincerity, Liu Neng had to personally hold the imperial seal to Luoyang to abdicate.

These things have their own people to arrange. Chen Mo has been free for a rare time during this period. He chats with his wife and daughter at home every day.

"Father, this Mr. Kong Ming is really amazing!" That day, Chen Mo was teasing his youngest grandson at home. After Chen Jin came back, he looked at Chen Mo with surprise. At first, he didn't quite understand why Chen Mo asked him to make friends with Kong Ming, but now Chen Jin gradually understood.

"Indeed, he is amazing." Chen Mo nodded and said, "The talents around you are good, but there are not many who can help you govern the country. Kong Ming once fought with my father in Xiangyang. If Liu Bei hadn't taken the risk, Xiangyang would not have been so easy to break."

"Since father knows this person's talent, why don't you use him?" Chen Jin looked at Chen Mo in confusion: "Is it because he is thinking about the Han Dynasty?"

"This is one reason." Chen Mo nodded, then shook his head and said, "What do you think of this person?"

"He is proficient in astronomy, geography, astrology, and Qimen. He knows everything about governing the country and the army. To be honest, I am not as good as him. If you let me use him, I am afraid I can't use him." Chen Jin smiled bitterly.

"Don't underestimate yourself. Although Kong Ming is talented, not everyone in the world is suitable to be a king, at least he is not." Chen Mo shook his head and smiled.

"Why is that?" Chen Jin asked curiously.

"I'm telling you, that's what I realized. Go check Xiangyang back then, and then tell me why he can't!" Chen Mo smiled.

"Yes!" Chen Jin nodded with some doubts, bowed and left.

Looking at the direction Chen Jin left, Chen Mo shook his head. Zhuge Liang was good, but if Zhou Yu was there, he would not recommend Zhuge Liang to Chen Jin. Unfortunately, Zhou Yu died too early, so Chen Mo could only take Zhuge Liang as his son's future team.

It's not that Zhuge Liang is not as good as Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu is a talented general. In terms of commanding troops and fighting, Zhou Yu is worse than Zhuge Liang, but when it comes to governing the world, Zhuge Liang is far better than Zhou Yu in this regard, but Zhuge Liang has his own problems. Let's see if Chen Jin can detect it first.

Two days later, Chen Jin came to see Chen Mo again.

"Found it?" Chen Mo looked at Chen Jin and asked with a smile.

"This person... is very unique." Chen Jin frowned and said, "I checked the information left by Jingzhou in those days. I didn't notice it at first, but later I found that Kong Ming would ask about many things in Jingzhou, no matter how big or small. Is this what father said?"

"Yes." Chen Mo nodded and said, "Smart people have their shortcomings. Zhuge Liang is a versatile person. His talents are unmatched in the world. However, it is precisely because of his comprehensiveness and understanding of everything that he can't let go of everything, or he doesn't trust others to do it. My son has been governing Shu for ten years. He should know how complicated the affairs of a state are. If you have to deal with everything, you will definitely have a short life. Such a person will tire himself to death even if he becomes a monarch."

"Father, how should such a person be used?" Chen Jin was a little entangled. Zhuge Liang is indeed a talent, and a great talent, but how should he be used?

"Use him as you should." Chen Mo smiled and said, "Assign him a few capable officials, but if he really has the talent to handle things on his own, don't let him go to school. He can train capable officials, but he can't train people who can govern the country. In addition, let him handle decision-making matters. When encountering national affairs, consult with him more, but if it is a small matter, don't discuss it with him. I hope he can live a few more years."

"This..." Chen Jin nodded, but his expression was still a little distressed: "Father, Kong Ming has no intention of becoming an official."

"It depends on whether you are willing to invite him to become an official." Chen Mo smiled and said.

"Father, do you want your subjects to imitate Liu Bei?" Chen Jin asked with a smile. Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang three times back then. Although he won Jingzhou, he failed to achieve great success after all. This made many people disdain Zhuge Liang's talents and felt that Zhuge Liang was not good enough. It is worthy of Liu Bei to do this. If Chen Jin is asked to follow suit, Chen Jin cannot do it.

"That's not necessary, but you need to remember that everyone wants something. Some people want fame, some people want profit, some people want wealth, and some people want sex. It's not difficult to say, but if you want to truly understand people's hearts, you need to know yourself. Go and see and think for yourself. My son is now nearly 40 years old. He has taught you everything a father can teach you. As for The rest needs to be found by my son. You are no worse than Zhuge Liang. My son can do what he can't do, so don't belittle yourself in front of him. You have been very practical along the way, and maybe It's because my father used to push me too hard, but my son is really not bad," Chen Mo said with a smile.

"My father understands his good intentions," Chen Jin said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter whether you understand it or not. You will take over the world in the future. My father can't give you much guidance on this path. You have been supported by my father in the second half of your life, either overtly or covertly. But in the second half of your life, The road needs to be walked by yourself. Remember, the only one in this world is The unchanging thing is change. You can learn from it, but you can't use it!" Chen Mo patted his son on the shoulder, looked at Chen Jin and shook his head: "Let's go, you and I haven't gone hunting for a long time, and the sky is bright today. Just in time, I went hunting with my father in Beiman Mountain."

"Here~"
