Chapter 157 Fu Jian wins Wang Meng as Liu Bei wins Kong Ming

[Wang Meng, courtesy name Jinglue, was born in Ju County, Beihai County in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and later moved to Wei County.A famous statesman and military strategist during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, from the official to the prime minister and general in the former Qin Dynasty.He died in June of the 11th year of Jianyuan (375) at the age of 51. 】

【At the end of Wang Meng’s death, he was still worried about the power of the powerful chieftains in the former Qin Dynasty. He took the Eastern Jin Dynasty as the location of Zhengshuo and advised Fu Jian not to attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but he was not accepted, and eventually he was defeated by Feishui. 】

[Growing up in troubled times, and wanting to end this troubled world, this may be the long-cherished wish of Wang Meng, the famous prime minister of all ages. 】

[Beginning in 325 AD, this year, Wang Meng was born in a poor family in Qingzhou.

And not long ago, thirty thousand soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were buried alive here.

The Han people under the leadership of the foreign race managed to survive Shi Le's death, but what awaited them was even more brutal and bloodthirsty.

On their own land, the Han people are like sheep in a pen, at the mercy of others.What dignity and glory are all nonsense in the era of chaos and chaos. Living is already the greatest luxury of the Han people.

"It's better to be a dog of peace than to be a person in a troubled world", I'm afraid it's about this era. 】

[The parents carried the young Wang Meng to beg all the way to the Central Plains. After they settled down, they made a living by weaving dustpans.

The children of the poor have long been in charge of the family, and Wang Meng's immature hands are often dripping with blood from being cut with bamboo strips.

But he was very smart, and slowly started the dustpan business.

Wang Meng is carrying a dustpan and can travel hundreds of miles a day with rounded legs. Although it is hard work, he has developed a good physique. 】

【The book of Jin states that Wang Meng has a unique personality. He looks down on those rascals in the countryside, and doesn't deal with them. He just walks by himself.

Those frivolous young people laughed at him for not being gregarious, but Wang Meng ignored him.

After his parents died of illness, Wang Meng, who was alone, sold the dustpan farther away.He read thousands of books, traveled thousands of miles, and finally came to live in seclusion at the foot of Huashan Mountain, and continued to hone himself. 】

[The northern land that had been chaotic for decades was dilapidated. After Fu Hong established the former Qin Dynasty, he divided the northern half of the country with the former Yan, and ruled across the river from the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Wang Meng was a subject of the former Qin Dynasty. 】

【In addition to earning a living, Wang Meng kept his hands on the books and studied hard, especially the most proficient in military tactics and strategies.Influenced by culture, Wang Meng grew up to be dignified and imposing.

Xu Tong, who has the skill of knowing people, wants to recruit Wang Meng as a meritorious service, but Wang Meng does not agree, and continues to live in seclusion, waiting for the Ming Lord. 】

[In 354 A.D., Huanwen led the Northern Expedition to the former Qin Dynasty, stationed troops in Bashang, and the people of Guanzhong lined the road to welcome them.

After Wang Meng heard about it, he went to Jinying to pay a visit in person in sackcloth.

When Huan Wen asked about the situation in the world, Wang Meng answered while picking lice, analyzing the general situation in the world in an orderly manner.

"Talking with the lice" was born.

Huan Wen couldn't help but secretly marveled, and then the general asked him why Wang Meng was ordered by the emperor to rescue Guanzhong, but there were no heroes in Guanzhong to take refuge in him?
Wang Meng saw through Huan Wen's intention to keep the enemy in check, and said directly: "Chang'an City is very close, but you don't attack it. People don't know your plan, so they don't come to seek refuge."

Huan Wen was speechless, so he had to praise: "No one in Jiangdong can compare with you." So he wanted to keep Wang Meng.

However, Wang Meng refused because the Eastern Jin court only valued the aristocratic family, and Huan Wen would usurp the rebellion again.

Later, Huan Wen had to withdraw his troops due to lack of food and grass. 】

[In the second year, Fu Sheng, the one-eyed tyrant of the former Qin Dynasty, succeeded to the throne.

He killed people like hemp, making the whole country panic, and even pushed the country to the brink of life and death.

In order to protect himself and the country, Fu Jian decided to launch a coup, so Lu Polou recommended Wang Meng to Fu Jian.

The two King Fu hit it off and talked all night long.

Fu Jian even compared his own Wang Meng to Liu Bei's Zhuge Liang. 】

"Kong Ming hasn't been counted yet, but he is at least the top three names in history." Guan Yu looked at the screen, feeling very regretful in his heart: "I regret not listening to Kong Ming's words, which led to the defeat of Jingzhou. I hope that after going back this time, You can admit your mistake to him face to face."

"Liu Bei has Kongming, like a fish in water!"

"How I wish Wang Meng could come with me! If there are two Wang Mengs to assist our three brothers, wouldn't that be omnipotent?" Ran Min couldn't help but start flirting.

[In 357 A.D., the atrocities committed by the tyrant Fu Sheng were already outraged.

Fu Jian then united with Fu Fa, killed Fu Sheng in one fell swoop, and established himself as the Great Qin King, with the reign name Yongxing.

Although the tyrant was eliminated at that time, the localities were already in great chaos, with traitors and sycophants in power, and illegal activities occurred frequently, especially in Shiping County.In order to eradicate evil spirits and clarify the world, Fu Jian appointed Wang Meng as the magistrate of Shiping County to rectify the administration of officials.

At the beginning of Wang Meng's tenure, he attacked with thunderous means and killed several people who were corrupt and perverted the law. The thieves were afraid, so they jointly sued.

Fu Jian wanted to focus on virtue, so he accused Wang Meng of this matter, blaming him for being too strict.It can also be seen from this that Fu Jian was indeed too benevolent, and it is not surprising that he was able to pardon Murong Chui later under the golden knife plan. 】

"Murong Chui. I also know that His Majesty didn't kill Murong Chui because he didn't want to chill the hearts of those who surrendered." Wang Meng in the beam of light said helplessly and sadly: "It is impossible for Murong Chui to sincerely take refuge in you." Your Majesty's, because he is the prince of Qianyan! He took refuge in His Majesty, just wanting to take the opportunity to restore the country!"

Unfortunately, Fu Jian couldn't hear it for the time being.

And even if Fu Jian could hear it, he would not follow Wang Meng's suggestion. Fu Jian was the emperor of the former Qin Dynasty, and he and Wang Meng considered issues from different perspectives.

[Fu Jian questioned Wang Meng, but Wang Meng retorted on the grounds of using heavy codes in troubled times.Fu Jian sighed and praised, and compared Wang Meng with Guan Zhong and Zichan.

Because of Wang Meng's extraordinary talent, he was promoted to five ranks in succession soon, and served as Shangshu Zuo Pushe and Sili Xiaowei, etc., and was deeply envied by former Qin officials and relatives of the clan.

Veteran Fan Shi attacked Wang Meng and was executed by Fu Jian; Qiu Teng and Xi Bao slandered Wang Meng and were demoted by Fu Jian.

In the political struggle, not only did Wang Meng not lose power, but also because of Fu Jian's trust, he was promoted to the third prince. 】

[Afterwards, Wang Meng took aim at the lawless relatives of the empress dowager and killed them with a thunderbolt. At the same time, he joined forces with Deng Qiang and others to execute more than 20 lawless dignitaries in the government and the opposition.

Fu Jian sighed for this: "Today we know that there are laws in the world, and the emperor is honorable."]

[While punishing treacherous people, Wang Meng also promoted talents, such as recommending Fu Rong, Ren Qun, Fang Mo, Hao Lue and others.

Wang Meng was fair in politics and decisive in dealing with affairs. During his tenure, the former Qin Dynasty was stable and peaceful, and the people were self-sufficient. Wang Meng himself was deeply loved by the people in Guanzhong.

A few years later, Wang Zhen'e led the army to Guanzhong. When the people heard that Wang Zhen'e was Wang Meng's grandson, they stopped resisting and lined the road to welcome the Jin army.

With the joint efforts of Fu Jian and Wang Meng, the national power of the former Qin became stronger and stronger, laying a solid foundation for the unification of the north.It can be seen from this that having a wise ruler and a talented leadership is of great importance to a country. 】
