Alien Summoning System

Chapter 365

"Time doesn't matter, that monster was injured by me last night, it will not recover so quickly, I will go to court first." After the three discussed it, Zhuo Ao laughed.

"What your majesty said is very true. It just so happens that the old minister found a talented person yesterday, and today he will recommend it to your majesty." Wen Zhong Fuxu laughed.

"A talented person?" Zhuo Ao's heart moved, counting, today is the third day he summoned Zhuge Liang, logically speaking, Zhuge Liang should also arrive, I am afraid that Wen Zhong said that the talented person is Zhuge Liang.

Wen Zhong thought that Zhuo Ao didn't believe it, and said with a smile: "Although this person has no morals, he has hidden strategy and can speak eloquently. If he can use it for himself, he will become a pillar of soup for me."

Zhuo Ao saw that Wen Zhong had misunderstood him, and he didn't explain it. If Zhuge Liang could get Wen Zhong's recommendation, he would be able to gain a firm foothold among the officials. With his current image in the hearts of the officials, if he personally promoted Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang might be in the group. The image among the ministers will also be greatly damaged.

"Let's go, let's meet the talented person who can be praised by the grand master, who is it!" Zhuo Aolang laughed, stood up first and said.

The three of them came to the main hall together under the escort of a group of guards. All the officials had already taken their positions. Wen Zhong stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I found a talented person in the workshop yesterday. I will go to the court today and recommend it to my Majesty."

Although he had passed the Qi before, but now in the court, the etiquette that should be followed must be followed, otherwise it will inevitably provoke people's tongues.

"The Grand Master personally recommends him, he must not be a mediocre person, and he will pass it on to the palace, waiting for me to see him." Zhuo Ao laughed.

"Of order." Wen Zhong agreed with a bow, and ordered someone to summon Zhuge Liang. A moment later, Zhuge Liang entered the hall led by his guards.

"Zhuge Liang, a man from the mountains and fields, see your majesty." Zhuge Liang saluted without being humble or overbearing, with a bit of fairy air, like a man among gods. This appearance alone greatly increased the favor of all the officials in the Manchu Dynasty.

"Exemption." Zhuo Ao stretched out his hand to help: "The grand master recommended you to me. Although I believe in the grand master's vision, I still want to ask you about your ability?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "I don't know what your Majesty wants to ask?"

Zhuo Ao thought for a while and said: "It's not difficult, if you enter my dynasty, do you think you can be any job?"

This test is not about talent, but mentality and the way of being a minister. If he is too arrogant, he will only be rejected by others, which proves that Zhuge Liang is not suitable for a high position at this moment. You are young, and Zhuo Ao is not the desperate Liu Bei, don't look at the fact that all the officials in the court are silent now, and fear the king Zhuo Ao like a tiger, but according to Zhuo Ao's observations in the past three days, among the hundreds of officials, there is no book. What was said to be monolithic, actually has its own forces intertwined. Zhuge Liang wanted to enter as an outsider, without a smooth way of dealing with the world, Zhuo Ao didn't dare to entrust him with important tasks immediately.

But if you are too humble, it is not Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and said: "You are no better than a villager in the mountains, and you are talented in learning. Naturally, you dare not say that you are better than the adults in the high hall, but you will not be much worse than Xi Qijiang."

Jiang Shang is naturally Jiang Ziya.

Zhuge Liang's ingenious answer is no less than that of Jiang Shang. Jiang Shang used to be a doctor in Chaoge. When it comes to official positions, he is naturally not considered prominent, but he is also among the hundred officials. But now Jiang Shang is regarded by Xiqi as a The prime minister, under one person, above ten thousand people, is an extremely human minister. If you compare yourself to Jiang Shang in this point, in the eyes of everyone, you are suspected of being too big, but you can't tell the reason. Jiang Shang In Chaoge, he was just a doctor, but he went to Xiqi and became the prime minister. If he belittled Zhuge Liang, he would be slapping himself in the face.

Sure enough, among the ministers, although some frowned, no one spoke.

"Okay!" Zhuo Ao said with a smile: "For you to pass the test, since you compare yourself to Jiang Shang, then temporarily take up the post of doctor, and at the same time be responsible for managing Chaoge people's livelihood and eliminating public grievances. If you really have the ability, I will not be stingy with officials. As for the mansion, the national treasury is empty now, so it is not good to disturb the people for the time being, since it is recommended by the grand master, I will temporarily live in the grand master's mansion, and will be rewarded later if I really have merit."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhuge Liang bowed respectfully.

After Zhuge Liang joined the ranks, Zhuo Ao looked at the officials and said, "Yesterday, although Fei Zhong and You Hun's homes were ransacked, although the money they got was enough to solve their urgent needs, but today's disasters are frequent and wars are raging, and the two people's wealth alone cannot completely solve the problem." For a long time, the hearts of the people will fluctuate, and adding taxes will only stimulate people's grievances. I plan to dismantle the deer platform at the request of the grand master, and return the gold, silver, jade, and jewelry to the people to appease the people's grievances, but freezing three feet is not a one-off. Rizhihan, if you want to completely appease the people's grievances, it may not be enough just to demolish the Lutai, I wonder if you have a plan to appease the people's hearts more effectively?"

As soon as Zhuo Ao's words came out, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were amazed. They had already heard that the king ordered people to fill up the basin yesterday and demolish the deer platform today. Could it be that they really repented and reformed themselves?
Among the ministers, Wei Ziqi hesitated for a while, then stepped forward and said: "Since the king has a heart of repentance, it is really a blessing for the common people. Cheng Tang and the former emperors have knowledge, and they must be gratified. However, as the king said, the frozen three The ruler is not a day's cold, since your majesty has a heart of love for the people, as long as you work hard, you will eventually get the understanding of all people in the world. This matter should be done slowly, and the effect will appear over time, there is no need to rush."

"Your Majesty's words are reasonable." Zhuo Ao nodded and said, "It's just that now, with the flames of war raging everywhere, I'm worried that things will change if it's too late."

"Your Majesty, what Master Wei Ziqi said is not bad, I think so." Zhuge Liang came out and smiled and said, "However, I think that if the King can show his sincerity to his subjects, it will not only win the hearts of all the people immediately, but it will also win the hearts of the people." All the people in the world and even the princes from all walks of life feel the sincerity of the King."

"Oh." Zhuo Ao looked at Zhuge Liang and said with a smile: "It's okay for Kong Ming to say."

"When your majesty is demolishing the deer tower, you can issue an edict to all people in the world at the same time, which is called an edict of crimes against yourself. You can count the things that your majesty has done to the people over the years. First, you can express your sincerity to the people, and second, you can make the heroes of the world. I am grateful for the majesty's courage, and then demolished the Lutai to show the king's determination, and dare not say that the people will return to their hearts, but it can effectively eliminate the people's grievances." Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

"Zhuge Kongming, stop talking nonsense!" Wei Ziqi's complexion changed, and he shouted sharply: "The king is the lord of all chariots, and the crime is not punished by the emperor's body. How can he promulgate an edict of sin against himself? Wouldn't it make the princes of the world laugh!"

Wei Ziqi is not really angry with Zhuge Liang, in fact, if Zhuo Ao can promulgate an edict of guilt at this time, the effect will be great, but... who knows if this will stimulate this king who finally got better after a while? Change back to the original faint king mode?

Zhuge Liang shook his head with a smile, and looked at Zhuo Ao: "Excuse me, bluntly, now Chengtang Sheji is at the point of life and death, and the fate of the country is precarious, just like a person who is terminally ill. If you are afraid of taking too much medicine and are timid, you will only miss the last moment." It is better to give it a chance and attack it with strong medicine, although it is inevitable that there will be labor pains, but if it is not the case, you can only wait for death slowly."

Zhuo Ao tapped his fingers on the table, frowning and thinking about the pros and cons. This is a situation he has never faced before. He is used to starting from scratch and then swallowing the world. Before he entered Fengshen, he never thought that the system would Arrange for yourself the identity of King Zhou.

There will definitely be negative effects of the Edict of Guilt, which will damage one's majesty, but as Zhuge Liang said, Cheng Tang is now at the end of his life, and there is no time for him to restore the hearts of the people a little bit.

All the officials were silent, and above the main hall, only Zhuo Ao's regular knocking on the table could be heard, with a faint depression that made one's breathing difficult.

After a long time, Zhuo Ao seemed to have made up his mind, stopped knocking, glanced over the officials, and finally landed on Zhuge Liang, nodded seriously: "Yes, I will leave this matter to you."

As Zhuo Ao's words fell, everyone couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Zhuo Ao looked to the left and right and said: "Zhou Ji, you are temporarily dispatched by Kong Ming. When to demolish the Lutai, Kong Ming will decide."

Behind Huang Feihu, a general came out, bowed and said: "I will obey the king's will."

Afterwards, they discussed some state affairs, most of which were disaster relief and the distribution of food, grass and materials. A large number of refugees poured in, disaster relief, and more to relieve these victims.

For refugees, Zhuo Ao naturally does not reject anyone who comes. In the age of cold weapons, the population is the national strength. The larger the population, the higher the people's support, and the stronger the national strength.

This time, it was different from the past two days, perhaps the edict of sin had played a role, not only a few people in the court spoke, but many veteran officials began to offer advice, and the barrier between Zhuo Ao and the officials was gradually disappearing. , It depends on Zhuge Liang's ability.

The court meeting lasted until noon, Zhuo Ao left all the officials to eat in the palace before letting them go back.

"Your Majesty has behaved like a wise gentleman in the past few days, which is quite different from usual." Wen Zhong and Huang Feihu left side by side. Your Majesty must use it, but you must not be complacent, otherwise it will easily lead to disaster."

"Thank you grand master for reminding me, Liang will keep it in mind." Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

"Since the evil concubine Daji set up a poisonous plan to frame her and was discovered by the king, the king seemed to have changed. I heard from the palace people that since New Year's Day, the king has not set foot in the Shouxian Palace. This is difficult in the past. Imagine." Huang Feihu shook his head and smiled.

"The demon concubine Daji, I met that day, she has a very evil aura on her body, I suspect that the monsters in the palace are making trouble, and I am afraid that this demon concubine is behind the scenes." Wen Zhong nodded and said.

"That's okay, tell the king immediately!" Huang Feihu was shocked, and wanted to return to the palace, but was grabbed by Wen Zhong.

"No hurry, I think Your Majesty knows it well." Wen Zhong shook his head and said, "Otherwise, why do you think Your Majesty asked you to take a condor? It's not because you are really afraid of that monster, but because Your Majesty is really afraid of that monster, but wants to protect you. Concubine Huang is so thoughtful, I think if His Majesty really finds out about Daji, but doesn't take action for a long time, I'm afraid there is some fear in his heart."

"Then..." Huang Feihu frowned and said, "What is there to be afraid of?"

"I don't know for the time being. In this case, you will bring Tianxiang and the Shenying into the palace with me to meet the king tomorrow, and ask secretly." Wen Zhong shook his head, and he couldn't figure out the key point, but he just had this kind of Feel.

"Okay!" Huang Feihu nodded, and was about to say something else when he saw Huang Feibiao rushing over with a happy face and said, "Brother, Tianhua is back!"

"Who?" Huang Feihu was a little dazed and didn't react for a while.

"Tianhua is your eldest son!" Huang Feibiao shouted loudly.

"My son!" Huang Feihu couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard the words, and after apologizing to Wen Zhong, he rode on the colorless divine bull and ran straight home.
