Princess Consort of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 265
Emperor Wu paused, then continued, "Benefits are what everyone desires. Literati seek fame, warriors seek military exploits, scholars seek high officials, businessmen seek wealth, and workers and peasants only seek food and clothing. This is the material interest you know. .

Beyond that, there are emotional benefits.Some people are filial, some are loyal to the emperor, some love beauty, some honor promises, liberty, righteousness and so on.There are many kinds of emotions, the most complicated.

But in most cases, it is material interests that can drive people. If you want to lure them with profit, you need to get your favorite tangible material interests.

If you use emotional interests, the opposite is true, and not many people are willing to take risks for the sake of icing on the cake.But in order to preserve the emotional interests, they will go all out.If he is filial, grasping the life and death of his parents' reputation, and ordering him around, he will never shirk. If he loves beauty, he has no choice but to obey with a knife on his face. "

Li He: "..."

It is indeed very clever.If Master Master's mother is alive or dead if he has mastered the melody, then he really cannot refuse.As for Master of Etiquette, not only can he do this thing well, but he can also do his best to do other things well, because he asked for it on his own initiative, so I still give him a chance.

Thinking about it this way is indeed enlightening.

But in this way, will it be unethical and difficult to convince the public? If the hearts of the people are scattered, who is willing to do things for him?

Li He asked again, "Will everyone be distracted like this? After all, coercion can make people fearful, and pressure can also make people uneasy. It is impossible to do terrible things in fear all day long."

Emperor Wu smiled lightly, "Appropriate pressure can make people progress, pressure cannot be exerted actively, only those officials who take the initiative to make progress, they have the chance to accept pressure.

You look at the imperial examination, the probability of getting two out of ten thousand, there are still countless people who join it, and I may not be able to use these two. "

Li He nodded. It is true. In the past few years, the poor families in the imperial court have occupied a considerable share. There is no exchange of blood as in previous years. It is difficult to arrange new candidates.If it weren't for someone with outstanding intelligence, His Majesty might not even bother to take a look.

On the contrary, the Ministry of Education has admitted many unsuccessful literati.

Emperor Wu didn't say more about power tactics, but added a few words of life philosophy, "Power tactics are just to prevent yourself from being trapped by the current situation, and to take the initiative to control the situation.

The use of tactics is not to achieve the goal without compromising the means, but to make the world move in its own direction step by step for the benefit of the wider people.

To be worthy of your heart, you only need to be yourself, to be worthy of the world, but you must do your best to make the whole country function normally in the established order and help others to be themselves.

do you understand? "

Li He: "..."

I don't quite understand, I'm still young.

Li He nodded.

Emperor Wu ordered him to leave after a few words of study and progress.

It would take him a long time to digest this class, but he kept nodding with a confused look on his face.

Taiping was taught by her personally, it will never be like this, the culprit of this must be Shen Sanwen.

Shen San asked Lie Gun, who am I afraid of if I am a backer.

The bear boy is always unwilling to let people down, at least he never thought of shaking his head when facing His Majesty who is very aura and stressful.

I don’t know what to be afraid of now, if I don’t know today, I will understand tomorrow, if I don’t know tomorrow, I will understand next year, my father said.

Shen San asked: "..."

I obviously didn’t say that, what I said is, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand now, there will be many days when you don’t understand in the future.

A lot of right and wrong in the family really can't tell.

When Li He got home, he wrote most of what His Majesty said according to his memory.

Shen Sanwen naturally saw it.

So, I depend on the princess for everything to go smoothly?
emmm...

It's okay for a man to rely on his wife and not others!

However, Li He has no way to use this teaching method of your majesty, can he learn it on paper?It is necessary to discuss with the princess more and give him some opportunities to exercise.

Shen San asked to find the princess, "Your Majesty's teaching is too profound, can He'er learn it well?"

Then some retelling.

The princess sighed, "Study seriously first, I still remember that my mother only taught me and my elder brother in the past."

Shen San asked: "The former prince Li Hong?"

The princess nodded, "It's a pity that brother Huang got seriously ill and died early. He is the queen mother's favorite son. Even if he was provoked by others, he and the queen mother had a grudge, but the queen mother still defended him very much. He went to various places for disaster relief inspections, If anything goes wrong, the Empress will personally take care of the aftermath for him."

Shen San asked: "Then the historian recorded that he was kind and courteous, and he also made achievements in politics?"

Is it real?
Princess: "Most of them are true, but he is too self-confident, and his personality is more similar to that of his father, who likes to be arbitrary. Some of his reputation is not his character. I first assisted my mother in handling government affairs, and it was when I took over from the emperor's brother. It started."

Shen San asked: "In that case, Your Majesty really has high hopes for the late prince."

The princess nodded, "If Brother Huang is here, there won't be so many things going on."

It is indeed exhausting. The emperor has changed six times in a hundred years.

However, if Li Hong didn't go, or if he went late, more things would have to happen later, Shen Sanwen couldn't feel any regrets.Being in the present time and space, and having never experienced that period of time, he didn't feel uncomfortable.

Shen San asked: "Your Majesty must have the same thoughts about the princess. The palms and backs of her hands are full of flesh. If the princess can properly inherit her mother's career, it will also be a relief to Your Majesty."

Princess: "Daughter inherits her mother's business?"

It is also appropriate to describe this situation.

Princess: "When He'er is out of school, I plan to arrange for him to go to Yuanzhou, where I have the most popular people and the easiest way to do things."

Shen San asked: "How long will it be, don't worry."

Princess: "Let Xiao Wen and Zhang Yang go to Turkic."

Shen San asked: "Are you serious? When?"

The princess nodded, "One year at most, Luoyang is already in chaos, and it is really disadvantageous to let him stay here. You said that Zhang Yang is absolutely trustworthy, and he will teach Xiaowen that he will not have the intention of seizing power. , Xiao Wen went to Turkic, and one of their brothers was outside and the other was inside, so they could have someone to take care of them."

Shen San asked with a frown, "Is there something you are hiding from me?"

The princess chuckled, "Sooner or later, isn't this something to be done?"

Shen San asked: "Who has Xiaowen been in contact with recently?"

Princess: "It is a great disadvantage for him to stay in Luoyang. Not only Li's clan, but also all the officials, it is difficult to deal with the relationship."

Too close, easy to be suspected.Being deliberately alienated, no matter how heartless, a child will feel uncomfortable.He doesn't feel good, and if he can't say it, he won't make others feel good.

But now, for him, most people can only keep a distance.

Even if you can have sincere friends, but in Luoyang, where can you be friends with sincerity?The family relationship behind it, official traps, and honey attacks all have to be scruples.

Coupled with the memory of the previous life, the minds of the two sons who were born next to each other were taken advantage of by others, and both of them felt uncomfortable.

Shen Sanwen wanted to understand this point, so he didn't force it anymore. It is often a good thing for such an identity to stay away from the political center.
