As far as Zhao Wuxi knew, Taoist disciples were born anti-war, and the later Huang-Lao School took this idea to the extreme. All wars are evil in their eyes!

The root cause is Lao Tzu himself. He was born in a chaotic world. He heard about horses and horses, and witnessed the shortage of soldiers. He was extremely disgusted with war.

It is a pity that, as a small official in the keeping room, the Prince Dynasty, who was once regarded as the choice of Ming Jun, also failed in the battle to seize the throne. After all, Lao Tzu was unable to control the situation. However, starting from the "Tao", he deduced the personality of "weakness" and "indisputable", and the anti-war thought guided by "weakness" and "indisputable", and in the present world, a long-lasting human spirit was swayed. Ripples, and Ren Zhang, are part of these ripples.

What Ren Zhang said in the remarks was nothing more than Lao Tzu's, but he also added some of his own.

He sympathized with the nation's wealth and the people's strength, and felt sorry for Zhao Wuxi for the disaster of the war: "Where the teacher is, thorns will grow. After the army, there will be a fierce year."

He opposed the use of military force, despised weapons and sharp knives, denounced the siege of the city and the land, and cursed the behavior of the charcoal creatures: "Fu Le kills, and you can't gain your ambitions in the world."

He cherished a peaceful life and exhorted Zhao Wuxi to stop the soldiers: "I heard that there is a way in the world, but I run away with dung. There is no way in the world, and soldiers and horses are born in the suburbs. There is no more misfortune than dissatisfaction; no more blame than desire."

In a word, it is to ask Zhao Wuxi to stop his troops, not to fight every year, and to devote more energy to improving people's livelihood and the manufacture of siege weapons, which is almost done. After that, Ren Zhang clarified his ideas.

"He who uses Dao to help people's masters, does not use soldiers to strengthen the world..."

"With the way of the royal soldiers, the master can be the king?" Zhao Wuxi shook his head helplessly. After reading Lu Ban's detailed and insignificant summary, and then reading Ren Zhang's, he felt that it was full of false words. He lost some interest.

Ren Zhang's idea is good. He feels that Zhao's territory is already broad enough and there are enough people. Rather than blindly deploying troops, it is better to develop the wilderness and nurture the people. Why bother with other countries and let the people shed blood? ? He offered a plan to let Han Zheng fight for the sake of becoming Gao, which might have made Zhao's surrounding neighbors busy with war, and Zhao's self-assurance.

However, it coincides with a world of great conflict, and the countries will retreat if they fail to advance. Taoism was originally a small country with few people, and the idea of ​​local self-government was completely different from the centralized power created by Zhao Wuxi's efforts to turn his family into a country.

With the establishment of seven prefectures and one capital, the reform of internal official positions is coming to an end, and the implementation of equal losses, the Zhao family has completed the centralization of power from politics and economy. Next, it is only necessary to stabilize the countries under the Zhao clan's hegemonic order, let Jin and Lu go through the process of integration, and can start the war of mixing the original.

Under such circumstances, it was too late for Zhao Wuxi to expand his army, so how could he follow Ren Zhang's tactics and "dismiss the army" and "not fight"?

It makes sense to think that the Huang-Lao School could only wither in the early Han Dynasty, when the world was in desperate need of peace and flourished for a while, and then it was eliminated by history later.

Because any monarch who has great talent and strategy and wants to make a difference will not take Huang Lao as his national policy.

What Zhao Wuxi needs is something that can help him achieve his goals.

Such as respecting the king and fighting against the barbarians, such as the Kyushu origin, such as the divine authority of the monarch, the spirit of the law, such as division for a long time will be united...

Therefore, he is eclectic in the use of people, and he will use various theories of the world: witchcraft, history, Confucianism, Mingfa, Gongshu, Guanzi, Taoism, and even Qi state magicians, as long as they can benefit from these strategies. Use selectively.

But the matter of Ren Zhang made him a little bit alert, because the Zhao family was comfortable and happy, and there were not a few people who started to be passive about the war. Fortunately, most nobles and doctors want to gain glory, while the lower-level soldiers and commoners want to obtain wealth and land. As long as the reward is well controlled, the desires of these people will never be satisfied, and the call for war will never be exhausted.

Of course, in fact, the method of acquiring land from abroad and subverting the regime of other countries is not just war. If there is something that can be solved by strategy and diplomacy, Zhao Wuxi will not use force.

After the spring of next year, it is time to try the effect of cutting plots and cutting crosses in Wei.

After thinking for a while, he wrote some words of encouragement in Zou Shu to let Ren Zhang know that the monarch has absorbed his opinions and will consider them. But in reality, Zhao Wuxi will move him away from the center, away from the decision-making circle, go to the local area to settle the people and wealth, and govern by doing nothing...

Ren Zhang still didn't get it all together. He forgot that in Lao Tzu's study there were not only anti-war, but also Dao, force and technique.

Use the power to support the Tao, use the technique to seek the power. If there is the Dao without holding it, the Dao is empty, and if there is reliance there is no Dao, and the reliance is also sudden.

Although Zhao Wuxi threw Ren Zhang's anti-war request aside, his teacher, Aunt Bu Ziqing, offered "the art of the south face of the king", which can be learned well. For Zhao Wuxi, this is the most important thing in Taoism. Something of value!

...

He threw Ren Zhang's memorial to the side, and the candles on the table went down again. The maids in palace costumes who were already dozing off hurriedly came over to refill the oil. Zhao Wuxi played with them while he sniffed Le Lingzi. The configuration of refreshing incense, close your eyes and rest.

I heard that Qin Shi Huang had to review 120 catties of memorials every day. Because it was written in bamboo slips, it was between 200,000 and 300,000 words, and the reading volume was already terrifying.

Zhao Wuxi figured it out, he had to approve about 60,000 to 70,000 words a day, Qin Shihuang was far behind, and because all counties and counties uniformly used lightweight bamboo paper, reading and reviewing was no longer a physical task. However, as Zhao's territory became wider and wider, the bureaucracy increased day by day~lightnovelpub.net~ Zhao Wuxie's daily affairs began to increase, and he was busy until nightfall every day.

It's not an option to work so hard every day.

Based on his many years of experience and combined with Gubu Ziqing's teachings on the South Face of the Lord, Zhao Wuxi knew that "a good ruler should work hard at discussing people, and be free in managing affairs". He is self-aware, and a ruler does not need to be hands-on in all major and small matters, but should be good at appointing subordinates to share responsibilities for him.

"Looks like it's time to recruit a few more close officials who will screen books for me..."

As Xiang Hu went to supervise the censor, there were vacancies in the close officials around Zhao Wuxi. He also considered using Ren Zhang, but Ren Zhang had already offended the powerful main fighting faction within the Zhao clan so much that he could not be cited as A close minister... This person's character is quite similar to that of the Taoist Ji An during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Jiahe's thoughts were not in line with Zhao's national policy, so Zhao Wuxi had already quietly crossed it out in his heart.

So he could only consider new candidates. He needed three people in total. Zhao Wuxi had already thought about it. One doctor's son, one scholar, and one Li Shu, leaving all classes speechless.

The quota for the other two had been set, and there was only one left. Zhao Wuqi thought that it was best to have a Linzhang Academy background, and be smart and eager to learn. Because these valet secrets with him are also a shortcut for Zhuo Ba to be an important official of the Zhao family. His choice is to let the scholars in the Linzhang Academy see hope. Shi signed the "Deed of Sale"...

In fact, Chang Hong, the grand sacrificial wine at the academy, had already handed over several candidates, and pressed it under the memorial. It was just a small note with the names and characters of the three candidates.

Zhao Wuxi only glanced at it, and his eyes were attracted by one of them.

"Bu Shang, the word Zixia?"
