Great Ye Empress

Chapter 116 Control
Gu Xingzhi also had the look of contempt for Xiao Wulang, looked at Xiao Wulang, and said in a cold voice: "Don't talk about a 13-year-old baby, you are so ignorant, and I don't know if you can compare with others who are ten years old. Little doll."

Li Nanyu squeezed his brows and said, "Okay, there was trouble last night! Master will be here soon, do you want to be punished?"

Sure enough, as soon as Li Nanyu made a sound, the two glared at each other, turned their heads away, and stopped talking to each other.

Xie Yunchu found it interesting to see the way Gu Xingzhi and Xiao Wulang got along.

After returning from Xiao Wulang, Gu Xingzhi and the two of them were noisy, and this mountain hall, where there were only birds and insects and gurgling water, was not so lonely anymore.

Soon, Ji Jingci arrived.

Several people got up and bowed with Ji Jing's resignation, and after Ji Jing's resignation was seated, several people sat down with him.

On weekdays, Ji Jingci gave lectures in the first half of the day.

In the second half of the day, Xie Yunchu and Gu Xingzhi, who needed a scientific test, were left alone to do scientific test practice.

Let Li Nanyu take Xiao Wulang to read and explain the "Warring States Policy" and other books in detail.

But today, after lunch, Ji Jingci took the four of them together to the small building in Bitan, where they cooked tea and asked them to express their opinions on Tian Ji's horse racing.

"I've heard this story since I was a child, isn't it just to tell the world... You have to learn to find advantages in disadvantages, don't abide by stereotypes, and use your strengths to overcome the enemy's weaknesses, can you win!" Xiao Wulang wondered.

Ji Jingci picked up the teacup and said with a smile, "Xiu Xing will talk first."

Li Nanyu bowed to Ji Jing, and after thinking for a while, he said: "As Wulang said, this story tells us to see the situation clearly and make choices... Use our own strengths to overcome the enemy's weaknesses, but... Xiu Xing thinks, Although Tian Ji won the race, he lost his duty as a minister."

""Guoyu·Yueyu [-]" records that, for people who are ministers, the ruler is worried about the minister's labor, and the ruler humiliates the minister's death. But Tian Ji is eager to win, and he races horses with the king...by tricks to win, so that the king loses face, it is really inappropriate. "

When Xie Yunchu heard what Li Nanyu said, he looked up at his senior brother...

Sure enough, her senior brother was suitable for concentrating on studying and preaching Confucian classics, rather than becoming an official.

Gu Xingzhi stood up and bowed, and put forward his own opinion: "Xingzhi's stupid opinion, apart from what my brother said, Xingzhi has seen more from this story, and I deeply feel that we should know... A single tree is difficult to support. If we want to do something, we must You know how to use people, and when you use people, you must trust them!”

"The reason why Tian Ji was able to win the horse race was because he appreciated Sun Bin and obeyed Sun Bin's words. He replaced medium horses with high-quality horses, and medium-sized horses for low-level horses. He won two of three races and won a thousand gold! The battle of Guiling also obeyed Sun Bin. His staff, fought the battle of besieging Wei to save Zhao, and then used Sun Bin's strategy of reducing the stove to trap and kill Pang Juan! This made him famous..."

"Why do you trust people!" Xiao Wulang stood up and bowed to Ji Jing, as if he was deliberately trying to confront Gu Xingzhi, "Sun Bin has a good strategy, but on the racetrack... the trick he gave to Tian Ji was a fool! Tian Ji is a military general who goes out to fight, so he is not as close as his nemesis Zou Ji and King Wei of Qi, and his eloquence is not as good as other people's Zou Ji!"

"As a result, Tian Ji used Sun Bin's strategy to win King Qi on the racecourse, making King Qi lose face. This is a big taboo! Since ancient times... the emperor has given military power to generals, but he is also afraid of generals, afraid that generals will hold them in their hands. Military power and rebellion!

"King Qi was always afraid of Tian Ji, and the incident that made King Wei of Qi lose face on Tian Ji's racecourse, coupled with the beautiful Zou Ji, would have to sharpen his sword against Tian Ji? Otherwise... Tian Ji would not flee later. Chu country."

Xiao Wulang's words are not unreasonable...

It can be seen that under the appearance of Xiao Wulang's playful appearance, there is no good at all, otherwise he will not be accepted by Ji Jing.

"How can a ruler be so narrow-minded?" Gu Xingzhi disagreed.

"Not all kings in this world have hearts. Kings can choose ministers with broad hearts, ministers... Are you qualified to choose a king?" Xiao Wulang rolled his eyes at Gu Xingzhi.

Ji Jingci nodded and looked at Xie Yunchu: "What did Liulang say?"

Whether it is Li Nanyu or Gu Xingzhi, they are all based on who is a minister... and how to be a minister.

Xiao Wulang is the prince, so he naturally speaks frankly from the perspective of the heavenly family.

In fact, today's Ji Jingci wanted to use this story of Tian Ji's horse racing to teach them how to be a king and a minister...

During these days, Ji Jingci has always wanted to teach her to be a solitary minister who can see the situation of the political and political affairs clearly, has a clean and honest character, stands in the mud but does not get dusty, and can protect herself.

Therefore, Xie Yunchu hadn't figured out what to say.

Seeing that Ji Jingci was looking at her with a smile, she straightened up and bowed to Ji Jing and said, "Liu Lang's humble opinion, Tian Ji is wrong... trusting Sun Bin's ability, but unable to control Sun Bin, so he has to use Sun Bin."

When Ji Jingci heard Xie Yunchu's words, his heart skipped a beat, and his expression became serious.

He put down the teacup in his hand and motioned to Xie Yunchu to continue.

Even Li Nanyu, Gu Xingzhi and Xiao Wulang looked at Xie Yunchu.

She said slowly: "The horse racing incident was famous for Sun Bin, the one who offended the King of Qi was Tian Ji, and the battle of Guiling and Maling that Brother Gu said was also famous for Sun Bin!"

"With Sun Bin's strategy and intelligence, don't you know... Since ancient times, the king would be afraid of military generals? If he really thought about Tian Ji, he would not let Tian Ji win the king of Qi on the racecourse! In the eyes of a wise man like Sun Bin, at that time, Tian Ji... is just a stepping stone on his road to revenge against Pang Juan. Sun Bin doesn't care how Tian Ji will end up in the future. He obviously helped Tian Ji win the horse race, but he actually wanted to make a name for himself in the race and let King Qi know. his patience."

Just like when Xie Yunchu asked Mrs. Xie to enter the capital to seek justice for the eldest sister, she said that it was for the position of the official minister of the Xie family, but in fact... her main purpose was still for the eldest sister.

"Rokuro's point of view is unheard of." Li Nanyu was interested.

Xiao Wulang nodded suddenly: "It's been a long time, the most insidious...is this Sun Bin!"

Gu Xingzhi also lowered his eyes and thought about Xie Yunchu's words, feeling that there was some truth to it.

"So, Rokuro thinks... the more resourceful and talented people are, and if they can't control it, then it's better not to use it." Xie Yunchu lowered his eyes and said goodbye to Ji Jing.

Ji Jingci lowered his eyes halfway, picked up the teacup again, and shook the clear tea soup in the teacup, hearing the murmur of water and the chirping of birds and insects.

He had studied and taught the princes of Daye and the Northern Wei Dynasty, but none of the princes... had so many qualities that an emperor should possess.

And the quality of Xie Liulang's body is definitely not something that Xie Lao from the Xie Clan of Chen County can teach.
