"Your Majesty is free and easy, as gifted by heaven and man. I am in a trance and lost my mind. I am really rude. Please forgive me." Shen Dao bowed his hands in greeting. Although his words were respectful, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant.
Xiong Wuliang glanced at Shen Dao with admiration - this was also a famous Legalist master in history, and Xiong Wuliang was still impressed by his name.
Qu Yuan smiled and introduced: "Master, this is Shen Dao whom I mentioned to you before -"
"He was originally the master of Legalism in Jixia Academy, but now he teaches at Quyang Academy. I heard that Shansang's reform was about to happen, so I came to help him." Qu Yuan said.
Xiong Wuliang smiled and cupped his hands: "Quzi praised the great talent of Mr. Mi Liang, who has admired his name for a long time, so he is disrespectful."
I was too cautious to even say it, but I still felt somewhat complacent in my heart.
Not everyone can enjoy the respect of Quyang Hou Xiong Wuliang.
Including Qu Yuan, although he is only a small "Qu Yang Yin" now, in the past, he was also the "big Sima" of Chu State, a real top minister... It is really satisfying to be praised by such a person. I was so cautious that I was secretly happy.
Qu Yuan gave Shen Dao another rainbow fart, which made Shen Dao laugh out loud.
Xiong Wuliang couldn't help but wonder - when did Qu Yuan become so sweet-mouthed?
It shouldn't be, he is an old troll.
The word "Li Sao" was sprayed all over the Chu Kingdom, which is enough to show his skill.
Finally, Qu Yuan's words revealed the doubts in Xiong Wu's conscience: "My lord is unaware of something, and I have already made a bet with Mr. Shen Dao on whether my lord can successfully solve the predicament at hand!"
"As for the bet...if I win, Mr. Shen Dao will have to work in the fief for free for three years!"
Xiong Wuliang:?
Does this plot sound familiar?
!
Qu Yuan, you are so thick-browed and big-eyed, but you have also imitated some bad people in society!
Shen Dao didn't realize it yet, he just smiled and said: "Qu Zi is flattering... I am focused on studying and have no intention of pursuing an official career... Qu Zi, don't forget, if I win, I will allocate the money applied for by the Legalist Academy to me as soon as possible." It’s the funding.”
Qu Yuan smiled like a chrysanthemum: "It's easy to talk! It's easy to talk!"
Shenzhen looked at Xiong Wuliang again, with a solemn expression on his face: "I have also heard about the officials from the four counties resigning together."
"At this time, how will you deal with it?"
Xiong Wuliang: "Please Shenzi teach me!"
Shen Dao let out a long sigh and said with real helplessness: "The clan power in Chu State is too strong, and it is difficult to carry out reforms... Now that they have become monolithic, and the situation is critical, they can only admit defeat for the time being, and then resort to alienation and differentiation strategies in the future. , Slowly figure it out..."
Xiong Wuliang and Qu Yuan looked at each other and were both happy.
After being suppressed for so long, it’s time to show off the trump card.
These days, I don't know how arrogant those clans are behind the scenes... Maybe they have already thought about how to blackmail themselves.
Now that we have succeeded in luring the snake out of the hole, the die-hards in the dark have jumped out of the water - it's time to invite Quyang Academy out, so that these clans who deliberately opposed themselves will regret it!
Xiong Wuliang smiled and took out a letter he had already written from his arms, shook it in front of Shen Dao, and then called Xiao Hei: "Go find two soldiers, take my handwritten letter, and send it to Huang Xie. "
…
Quyang Academy.
Huang Xie got Xiong Wuliang's letter and looked confused.
Ever since he came to Xiong Wuliang's fiefdom to work illegally, Xiong Wuliang had never written a letter to himself so seriously.
Nowadays, there is an uproar in the four counties, and even Huang Xie, who teaches behind closed doors in the academy, has heard about it... Damn Xiong Wuliang, why didn't Xiong Wuliang quickly find a way to make peace with those clans? Why did he write to himself?
Are you asking me for advice?
It's a pity... I can't think of any way, otherwise I can take this opportunity to show my IQ in front of Xiong Wuliang and feel proud.
Huang Xie shook his head, sighed in a mature manner, and opened the letter——
After a moment, Huang Xie's eyes widened! exclaimed!
"Xiong Wuliang, you are indeed wily and scheming! As expected of you!"
"What a profound calculation!" Huang Xie was shocked.
Xiong Wuliang's letter was very simple, with only two lines - ordering Huang Xie to quickly select outstanding students in the academy, rank them based on their usual performance, and assign them to posts immediately to replace those officials who were imprisoned or resigned!
Huang Xie was shocked!
No wonder that Xiong Wuliang suddenly started this academy and appointed himself as the academy director, trying his best to satisfy every application.
It turns out that he had planned today a year in advance!
This man is so terrible!
Huang Xie took a deep breath, and suddenly had an ominous premonition - he felt that he would never be able to surpass Xiong Wuliang's shadow forever, and would always work humbly for Xiong Wuliang...
"This is a great plan!" Huang Xie read the letter again and admired it from the bottom of his heart.
Most of the students in the academy come from poor families - the academy was originally founded for the purpose of 'literacy'. Of course, those children with a little bit of family influence who could read would not bother to come to the academy with these classmates from poor backgrounds.
This ensures that these students cannot be of the same mind as those clans.
They all came from poor backgrounds, and now they are all assigned with graduation packages and have taken up management positions, becoming officials that their ancestors have only been able to work with for generations... Of course the students are also very happy!
And they are what they are today, all because of Xiong Wuliang's training... In addition, Xiong Wuliang has always had a good reputation in the fiefdom - these future officials are of course very loyal to Xiong Wuliang.
There are currently more than 3,000 students in the academy, so it is not difficult to select thousands of suitable people.
"What a brilliant idea!" Huang Xie sighed.
The only shortcoming of this policy is that the students are generally young, basically under twenty years old. Most of them are only fourteen or fifteen years old, and have no experience in serving as officials. If they suddenly take office, they may be in a hurry.
But this is not a big problem - if you can read and understand some organization, you can become a low-level official.
Even if there is a short period of confusion, he can quickly become familiar with the environment - Huang Xie is very confident in his students!
Besides, the daily work of those petty officials in the past was not very valuable and not complicated at all.
Looking at it this way, being young is a good thing - there are no bad habits in the officialdom, and everyone is full of energy. After a short period of adaptation, the efficiency of the government will be greatly improved, and the current situation of extortion and bribery will be greatly alleviated.
Huang Xie admired for a moment and called his most proud disciple: "Qu Yang, come here!"
"Disciple is here, please give me the mountain chief's instructions!" A young man of fifteen or sixteen years old came in from outside the door and bowed his hands respectfully to Huang Xie.
Compared with a year ago, this smart young man is taller, has a beard, and looks much more stable.
Huang Xie handed over the letter in his hand: "Go, copy a few more copies of this letter and post it in front of the school gates of each sect."
"After studying in the academy for a year, it's time to let practice test your learning results——"
"According to the order of Hou Quyang - there are three thousand students in the academy, competing for positions, each based on their ability!" Huang Xie waved his hand!
