I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 1003 Let's have a game, exciting flying chess

Chapter One Thousand and Three

While Li Tian was still thinking about how to punish the little wild cat Zhang Qinghuan at night, Wang Fu suddenly appeared from nowhere.

"Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time. There is not enough milk tea in the store. This is a cup that this old slave managed to grab."

The sudden absence of Wang Fu interrupted his dream, and Li Tian wished he could kick over and kick his horse.

But in the end I endured it.

Looking at Wang Fu's face in the winter, a layer of sweat oozes from his head, which shows how much effort he has wasted in order to get this cup of milk tea.

How could he have the heart to let such a loyal and hard-working subordinate make him feel cold.

At this time, Li Tian seemed to understand a little bit.

Why did there appear so many eunuchs who harmed the country and the people in the middle and late Ming Dynasty?

This group of people, before gaining the power to rule and oppose, may be more loyal to their master than Wang Fu and the others.

Such a loyal servant who knows the cold and the hot, observes the words and looks, will not like any master.

On the other hand, those ministers in the imperial court.

Every day when I go to court, I either accuse this or that, or I just ask for money with my mouth and shut my mouth.

In contrast, they trust more, these personal servants hate those ministers who are often disrespectful to themselves, and often contradict themselves, so it can be explained.

If an emperor himself is unwilling to manage the government, and gradually hand over the power to manage the government to trusted eunuchs, this kind of thing will be a matter of course.

You can say that they are flattering and inviting pets, or you can say that they are harboring evil intentions.

But it is undeniable that their loyalty to the emperor, the master, is really not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Even if that loyalty may be feigned.

But if a person can pretend to be loyal, for decades or even for a lifetime, then who can tell whether he is really loyal or not.

Although their bodies are incomplete, they are still human beings with emotions and desires.

They have no other way out except to please their master and get more preferential treatment for themselves.

It was this world that blocked their way, it was this world that treated them unfairly, and finally pushed them to that extreme.

Thinking about it carefully, in the original history, the Ming Dynasty finally fell, and it was true that all the eunuchs were to be blamed.

There is no time when only one person or a few people can overthrow a once extremely prosperous dynasty.

Put the fault of subjugation on a few eunuchs and a few women.

It is very unreasonable in itself.

It's just that the sour Confucians of Confucianism, in order to whitewash history, deliberately exaggerated, compiled stories, and then spread them by word of mouth, and finally became untrue facts.

Yes, Wei Zhongxian and a few others are indeed the biggest villains of an era.

But these villains, before they made their fortunes, didn't start from the most humble roles.

I want to compare those people who were born into rich and noble families, and then made their way to the top and became the core officials of the court.

They have exhausted all means to treat people as cattle and horses in exchange for the glory and wealth. Is it really so unbearable?

If everything obtained through hard work is not worthy of appreciation, then in this world, does it still need to work hard, so does it need to fight day and day for one thing?

Of course, this is not to say to whitewash someone, but to explain a fact.

No one is born to be a slave, to be ordered around.

It's all just luck, destiny.

The only one who can control the life and death of all beings is the emperor who stands high above the sky, except for the heavens.

Turning one's hands into clouds and turning one's hands into rain, sometimes, is not empty talk.

The rise and fall of the country and the suffering of the people may all be based on the emperor's thoughts.

Li Tian is confident that he is not a fatuous monarch, and he will not let a disaster like Wei Zhongxian appear in his world.

But this does not prevent him from treating Wang Fu better, giving him a certain amount of respect, and treating him equally with others.

"Wang Fu, thank you for your hard work. After arriving in Nanjing, I still have a lot of things that I need you to take care of. During this period of time, take a good rest and rejuvenate your spirit. Don't lose your energy..."

When Wang Fu heard Li Tian's words, his nose felt sour, and tears almost gushed out.

Fortunately, he finally endured it abruptly with his solid psychological quality.

"The old slave is not tired, and being able to accompany His Majesty all the time is already a blessing that the old slave has cultivated in three lifetimes. Your Majesty, you really don't need to worry about trivial matters!"

"Okay, you don't have to flatter me.

What I said is true, we are going to Nanjing in half a month.

At that time, there must be tough battles waiting for us to fight. I don't want you to be exhausted by then, otherwise I will have a lot of trouble.

Go, go, just leave a few guards here. "

Wang Fu confirmed again and again that Li Tian's expression didn't look like he was joking, and he couldn't restrain his emotion anymore.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your sympathy, old slave... I can't repay you..."

Li Tian smiled and helped him up,
"Okay, what's the matter with a big man crying.

Go, go and rest.

Eat less, you should also lose weight, you are getting more and more like a ball now. "

Wang Fu said with a smile while crying,

"Okay, the old slave will lose weight when he returns home, and His Majesty will definitely see a different Wang Fu when the time comes."

Looking at Wang Fu who turned his head three times a step at a time, the smile on the corner of Li Tian's mouth never faded.

Although they are incomplete people, although they have one face in front of themselves, they have another face in front of others.

But so what, as long as you use them properly, you can use them to create greater value.

It doesn't matter who you use or how you use it.

No one is all-rounder, and no one can solve everything.

No matter how talented a person is, there will always be someone more than you when it comes to pissing him off.

As an emperor, one should not judge a person's value simply by his loyalty or not.

Instead, analyze the pros and cons from a long-term perspective.

If Wang Fu was just a flattering, deceitful, greedy person, Li Tian would kill him without anyone reminding him.

Knowing how to recognize and employ talents is the most important thing for a qualified emperor to do.

It is also an emperor's profound knowledge that is worth learning for a lifetime and is infinitely useful.

In front of this point, what diligence and justice are actually secondary.

The sudden enlightenment seemed to have opened a new window for Li Tian, ​​and his vision and realm seemed to have been sublimated again.

He smiled slightly,
"This feeling is really good, maybe this is the so-called growth, let's upgrade. Not bad!"
