Chapter 152 Planning for Retirement

Qian Zhixin is also smart. Hearing Wei Chenrui's question, he knew that she was deliberately testing himself, so he hurriedly replied: "Arithmetic is definitely not as good as your Highness, but it's not bad. Calculation is still very fast. Most of the family books are checked by the little helper."

Wei Chenrui nodded: "If that's the case, then you don't have to go to class tomorrow. I will arrange for someone to deliver the account book to you, and come to me after you finish the calculation."

After finishing speaking, Qian Zhixin, who was secretly happy, left behind without turning his head.

Wei Chenrui went to the Martial Arts Field and saw that those Jinshi were studying hard, so he let go of his heart and didn't disturb their training, turned around and went back to the palace.

Through what happened to Qian Zhixin today, Wei Chenrui realized that although Shaofu had helped him a lot, those accompanying students couldn't keep up with the progress.

But it is not realistic to deprive them of their status as accompanying students. They are all the children of the rich and powerful. They recruit people enthusiastically, and then suddenly drive them back.

It would be too difficult for them to let them continue to learn. If things go on like this, these people will probably lose their fighting spirit.

These people will become his help in the court in the future. If they don't even have fighting spirit at this time, what future will they have?

In addition, Wei Chenrui still remembered the retirement of some older courtiers, and she wanted to use this opportunity to find something for those old guys to do, so that there would be less people clinging to power Don't let it go, the retirement plan still has a high chance of being able to go ahead.

This is the first time for Wei Chenrui to enter the palace since the [Technology Development Bureau] started to build. Emperor Zhaohe was still very surprised: "Why did you remember to go back to the palace today? Is there not enough money?"

Wei Chenrui's head was full of black lines: "Can't my son come back to see Father and the elders?"

Emperor Zhaohe nodded: "That's right. I have seen it here. Hurry up and go to your grandmother's to have a look. I haven't seen you for a while. She still misses you very much and often inquires about your situation."

I don't have time to spend more time with the elders, so I should visit them from time to time. Naturally, Wei Chenrui won't have any objections, but there are still important things to say, so how can he leave so quickly: "It's not urgent, I'll stay tonight In the palace, I have time to pay my respects, I have something to talk to my father today."

If it wasn't for the majestic image, Emperor Zhaohe would have rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I knew it would not be so easy for you to return to the palace, so tell me, what is it!"

Wei Chenrui smiled awkwardly: "It's like this. Today Qian Zhixin went to Erchen and said something to Erchen, and Erchen suddenly had an idea."

Emperor Zhaohe didn't speak, knowing that Wei Chenrui hadn't finished speaking, he waited for her to continue.

"Didn't my son tell you before that he wants those older ministers to abdicate and make way for the virtuous?"

"After what happened to Qian Zhixin, Erchen came up with a brilliant idea."

Emperor Zhaohe was still very concerned about this, and asked with great interest: "What's your idea?"

"My son thinks so..." Then Wei Chenrui began to talk about his plan.

It was she who wanted to set up a technical school, so that those retired civil servants and generals could become teachers in the school, and train capable ministers and generals for Zhaoguo.

Civil officials teach various ways of being an official and how to deal with various things; military officers teach various art of war, as well as classic battles, various skills of leading troops in battle, and so on.

I have to say that Wei Chenrui's idea is very good, Emperor Zhaohe is very tempted, but there are some practical issues, but he has to consider: "Can those old guys give up the power in their hands and become a teacher according to your idea?"

This is indeed a problem, but not an insoluble problem.

Wei Chenrui did think of a way, but Wei Chenrui wasn't sure whether it would work or not: "The minority should obey the majority. Why don't you, the king of a country, have to set an example and show your attitude first."

Emperor Zhaohe didn't have much desire for power, so he naturally didn't have much opinion on Wei Chenrui's proposal: "That's not a problem. Who are you going to persuade to become this teacher?"

Wei Chenrui is quite familiar with military generals. In addition, military generals are veterans who have fought for many years. They have suffered a lot of injuries, and they don't value power as much as civilian officials. As long as the family's glory is still there, it is not a bad idea to retire. Can't.

Therefore, Wei Chenrui's main consolation objects are those military generals: "I want to comfort the older generals. They can still pick out one or two successors from among their descendants. They will abdicate and let the children of the family The superior, presumably will not object."

"And their experience in the battlefield is invaluable to those from poor backgrounds who have never been on the battlefield, or who have not systematically studied the art of war. With the experience of these veterans, the younger generation will go a lot less in the war Detours, the number of dead soldiers will naturally decrease accordingly."

Emperor Zhaohe was very surprised. He didn't expect Wei Chenrui to have such an idea. She didn't want to reduce anyone's rights. She just let the older ones give the younger ones some opportunities. Those who desire will not refuse.

The generals have no objections, and among the civil servants, we can persuade a few ministers who don't have much desire for power. Wei Chenrui's idea has a very high possibility of becoming a reality.

This is also very beneficial to Zhaoguo, and Emperor Zhaohe would naturally not refuse: "This is a good way, you can do it with confidence, I will never hold you back."

Naturally, Wei Chenrui understood the meaning behind the words: "Thank you, father, and my son will retire!"

After the matter was finished, Wei Chenrui left without hesitation.

After greeting the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and his own mother and concubine in turn, Wei Chenrui returned to the East Palace and began to choose the target of persuasion, and asked his subordinates to investigate the abilities of the minister's family members in order to choose a suitable heir.

Although it has been said that since ancient times, there have been many elders who have been spoiled and cannot take responsibility at all. It is the misfortune of the whole country to let such a person occupy a high position.

Besides, Wei Chenrui, a modern person, doesn't value the eldest son at all, but only values ​​ability, whoever has the ability to use whom, not who is orthodox.

If you don't want to lose power, you should teach Zhang Di well and let him become a person who can shoulder the responsibility and make contributions to Zhaoguo.

Emperor Zhaohe didn't pay much attention to the eldest son. After all, he was not the eldest son and inherited the throne. Wei Chenrui was not the eldest son, but became the heir apparent. Naturally, he would not ask Wei Chenrui to follow the usual practice and choose the eldest son to inherit his position.
