Chapter 181 Meet Wang Chan
() Wang Chan didn’t take it seriously, as if he hadn’t seen it. Seeing Ying Zheng sit down, he also knelt down and sat down. He turned to the direction of the bamboo house and gave a gentle instruction: "Yu'er, why don't you bring some tea to the distinguished guest?"
Come out!" His voice was not very loud, and he stopped looking at the bamboo house after shouting. When Ying Zheng heard Yu'er's name, although his expression remained unchanged, his pupils shrank involuntarily, and Wang Chan seemed to be confused.
Not noticing Ying Zheng's strange behavior, he pointed to the lake and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I know that there are a few fish in this lake. I throw some grass and millet down on weekdays, and the fish compete to eat. The scene is quite beautiful and fascinating.
I am quite happy, but now the fish is fat and not as good-looking as before. I am old and hungry. When I think of the delicious fish, I feel unbearable. I don’t want to feed it anymore, so I want to eat it and then be happy.
, I wonder if your Majesty thinks that this old man’s move is appropriate?”
He was fishing when Ying Zheng and others came in just now. Now that he asked this question, he was obviously testing Ying Zheng. There was something in Wang Chan's words, and when he asked Ying Zheng what he thought about this, he was vaguely interested.
Ying Zheng compared him to him, and compared the courtiers or himself who was about to become a Qin minister to a fish. When the fish looks good, the owner will often feed it, but once the fish is useless, it will no longer look good.
, and it grew fat, he wanted to catch it and eat it. This is similar to the time when Gou Jian, the king of Yue, used to hide all the birds in his bow and cook the rabbits to death. However, what Wang Chan asked was not that simple.
Otherwise he wouldn't have gone in such a big circle...
If Ying Zheng agrees with Wang Chan and agrees that the fish is useless and wants to eat it, but kills the fish just to satisfy his own selfish desires and does not want to go through the trouble of feeding every day to reduce trouble, then it proves that Ying Zheng has a ruthless character.
Crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, such an answer may easily chill the officials. And if Ying Zheng bluntly stated that the fish was originally for the owner to watch and had merit, and then left its life to let it live freely in the mountains and rivers, then this would seem quite hypocritical.
It proves that Ying Zheng is a man of scheming and good at disguise. Villains are easy to guard against but hypocrites are difficult to resist. Even though many people are willing to associate with real villains, they don’t like to have good terms with hypocritical husbands. It is wrong to move forward. It is also wrong to retreat.
In addition to Wang Chan, there were also Yu Liao, Wang Ben and others. Wang Chan asked in one sentence, which made it difficult for people to answer. But once he answered, he was in a dilemma and could easily offend people.
If Ying Zheng answers the former, it will easily chill the hearts of his ministers. If they become alienated from him in the future, how can anyone dare to do their best for him without holding anything back, lest Ying Zheng destroys the bridge once their own use value is gone?
.And if he answers the latter, I am afraid that even if everyone does not say anything on the surface, in fact, they will be wary of him. If the king and his ministers are not virtuous and their ministers do not try their best, and the mutual defense creates barriers, how can there still be people?
If you are willing to do things seriously, doesn't it give others the opportunity to take advantage of the loopholes? Wang Chan's words sounded like he was borrowing fish to express his feelings for others. It sounded like an ordinary thing about eating fish, but the implication behind his words was,
Not only can we think of the relationship between monarch and ministers, but if the answer is not careful, it may also involve issues of character. If ministers are compared to fish and the king is compared to a fish farmer, the relationship may seem simple, but in fact it is hidden.
Mystery!
The king feeds his ministers with salary, status and power, and makes them do things for him. However, if the ministers are useless, they will be like this fish and have no ornamental value. After Wang Chan asked this question, he had a smile on his face.
Glancing at Ying Zheng, as if he didn't understand what he just said, Wen Wen looked at Ying Zheng and nodded to him, while stretching out his long beard that swayed slightly in the wind.
There was a slight sound of footsteps in the room, but Ying Zheng was not as distracted as before. Instead, he stared intently at the smiling old man in front of him. It seemed that it was only at this moment that he began to take a serious look at this long-haired man.
Like an old man with an indescribable grace, Wang Chan's eyes were distant and there was a smile on his face. At first glance, Leng Huihui seemed to have a kind face and kind eyes, but in fact, after looking at him for a long time, he could see this.
His smile and eyebrows are just appearances. He seems to treat everyone and everything in the world equally, and looks at everyone with a smile. But he has one thing in common with Yu Liao. Both master and disciple are the same.
, seems to be affectionate but is actually not affectionate. He has a smile on his face, but this smile does not make people get closer, but makes people unconsciously awe, which proves that this person is extremely difficult to get close to, and it is not easy to make him sincere.
Treat people.
It took Ying Zheng many years to make Yu Liao sincerely stay in Qin to work for him. The two of them got along day and night for a long time before Yu Liao became loyal to Qin and to him. Ying Zheng can be said to be very loyal.
Years have passed like a day. This is easier said than done. It is precisely because of this that he can win Yu Liao's heartfelt loyalty. At this time, Ying Zheng looked at Wang Chan. This man had a good reputation, appearance and temperament.
There was an unexplainable majesty in it, but Ying Zheng suddenly laughed. His eyes gradually became firm. At this time, the ambition in his heart was no longer hidden. Wang Chan looked at him gently.
At that moment, he suddenly turned his head, looked at the clear spring water, and suddenly laughed:
"Mr. Wang has a different opinion on what he said."
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Wang Chan's eyes, causing his gentle appearance and temperament to suddenly become extremely sharp for a moment. Ying Zheng seemed not to notice, and stretched.
His whole body was also leaning on the bamboo railing behind him. Ying Zheng originally sat extremely straight, like a long sword about to be unsheathed, with a restrained and solemn look, but once he relaxed at this time,
He made such an extremely rude move, coupled with his extremely leisurely expression, not only did it not make people feel rude, but he also had a frank and calm attitude, which easily created the image of Wang Chan just now
Most of the atmosphere was broken.
A smile gradually appeared in Wang Chan's eyes. Compared with Ying Zheng's increasingly relaxed attitude, he became more serious from the leisurely attitude at the beginning. He sat up straight and bowed slightly towards Ying Zheng.
He cupped his hands and said, "I would like to hear the details of your Majesty!"
"This fish is kept in a pond, but in the eyes of the government, this pond is too monotonous. Every day's work is boring and boring. It goes on for a long time, and naturally it becomes boring. Even though the fish is full of strange things and the scene is beautiful, there are times when it is unbearable.
, If according to the political advice, some plants can be planted in this pond for viewing, it can also add more changes. Does Mr. Wang think so?" After Ying Zheng said this, he turned back and glanced at Wang Chan, with a smile on his face.
Although his words were gentle, his eyes gradually changed. After hearing what he said, Wei Zhe and others suddenly thought deeply, and even Wang Ben couldn't help but smile on his face. Ying Zheng's words were alluding to
If the king feels that his ministers have tried their best, he does not necessarily have to just cook the ministers who are no longer useful and then make a quick meal. It is not necessarily the case that if external things are added and the ministers use their own knowledge, they will naturally be able to contribute to the king again.
The methods must be so violent that both sides suffer losses.
This also reflects Yingzheng's way of employing people. This is what Yu Liao and others feel the most, especially Wang Ben. He is also aware of Yingzheng's connivance to him over the years, and Yingzheng is not very fond of him.
Blindly indulgent and polished, Wang Ben is not as smart as his father Wang Jian. He only looks carefree on the surface, but in fact he has his own calculations in his heart. Ying Zheng must use his boldness and consciously cultivate his matching abilities.
With his talent, he watched Yu Liao teach him martial arts like nothing happened along the way. Wang Ben's changes over the years made him feel the most deeply about Ying Zheng's words!
The way for a monarch and his ministers to get along does not mean that there is only one final result, but the initiative can be in the hands of both parties. He knows exactly what kind of talents the king wants to use, just like training Wang Ben. The talents he wants have a clear purpose, and Wang Ben himself also has it in his heart.
Clearly, opening up territory for Ying Zheng does not necessarily mean that military generals are useless. Guarding the country requires talents. Compared with attacking, how to defend is more difficult! At this time, Wang Ben vaguely felt that he understood what Ying Zheng said.
He immediately stopped listening to the meaning of these two people's words. Wang Chan's words just now made him think highly of them, and Ying Zheng's words would naturally be heard by hundreds of people and have different opinions. He could figure it out.
Trying to figure it out is just a waste of time. As long as he does his own thing well, he will have a clear conscience. As long as he knows that Ying Zheng is a human being and is not a dog-eat-dog, why should he worry about other people's words?
With the change in Wang Ben's heart, the look on his face naturally relaxed and fell into Wang Chan's eyes. Wang Chan's eyes lit up involuntarily and he looked at this young man who seemed honest and straightforward.
With one glance at the man, he immediately touched his beard and nodded. However, his disciple Yu Liao was still scratching his beard at this time, with a tangled look on his face and a frown on his face. Even Wang Chan seemed to be unaware of the way he was looking at him.
Yu Liao frowned involuntarily and snorted. Yu Liao's body seemed to be struck by lightning. To others, it was a subtle sound, but to him, it was like Wang Chan humming in his ear, which made his spine shake involuntarily.
Stand up.
"Although the king's words are good, the king wonders whether this fish likes this change." Although Wang Chan still had a smile on his face, his eyes gradually became sharper. Although his tone did not become serious, the atmosphere was.
Suddenly it became urgent: "What's more, the landscape here has its own style. If we change it according to the king's words, will it cause a lot of discomfort?" Wang Chan asked in a leisurely voice, but he said one sentence.
His words were compelling, and he narrowed his eyes slightly. Although there was still a smile on his face, his voice was slightly heavier when he asked, making everyone listening to him feel as if there was a huge stone weighing down their hearts. (Unfinished)
