"Zi Long!"
"Prime Minister!"
"Haha, Zilong's bravery is the best among the three armies!" Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan and looked very happy. He smiled and said: "I haven't conquered the Yongliang counties yet, but Zilong has already captured Sanguan. It's really gratifying. ah!"
"Prime Minister, it is not my fault that we captured Sanguan."
Zhao Yun smiled and said, "You still know that magical boy, right?"
"Of course I know, he is a great benefactor to our Shu army."
"He was the one who captured Sanguan." Zhao Yun complained: "You don't know that he predicted Zhang He's prediction, captured Sanguan in advance, and captured Zhang He alive. Haha, Cao Wei's army on the right is nothing to be afraid of!"
"I see, he is truly an unexpected talent!"
Zhao Yun smiled and said: "Prime Minister, this man admires you the most. If you meet him once, he will happily agree to join the Shu army. Then, wouldn't it be nice to have another talented person in our army?"
Zhuge Liang began to think.
"Zilong, what kind of person do you think he is?"
Zhao Yun thought for a while and said: "This person seems to have a perverse temperament and acts without any rules, but he is very independent and intelligent. I believe that this person is a rare talent who can turn the tide and hold the building together." Will be defeated thousands of miles away!"
"Why do you think so highly of him?"
Zhuge Liang didn't understand very much. He always felt that...Jiang Tuo acted unexpectedly and was a bit naughty. He needed to be disciplined before he could become a pillar.
A perfect man like Zhuge Liang actually had only one black spot, which was that he was too busy with government affairs and could not know how to make good use of others.
People like Liu Bei can treat each other with sincerity and treat people like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun with all their heart. And people like Wei Yan and Huang Zhong can also know and employ people, and even dare to appoint Wei Yan as Hanzhong Prefect.
Looking back at Zhuge Liang, what he values most in employing people is character and loyalty, followed by ability.
When he assigned combat missions to generals, he would take all aspects into consideration, including weather, food, terrain, and morale, and only then could he let the generals fight with confidence.
In this way, the general is only executing orders and does not gain much combat experience.
Zhao Yun smiled and said: "Prime Minister, this person has many advantages. You probably don't know that he can actually find talents in a remote and remote place like Qingshui County."
"His guards can fight me for ten rounds."
"He is courageous and dares to lead his soldiers to go deep alone and deceive the generals who guard the pass."
"He has a strategy. Think about it, he used to be a bandit. In just a few years, he developed a strong army. If he didn't have a good strategy in his mind, he would have perished long ago, right?"
"He still has talent. In Qingshui County today, every family has a surplus of food, and everyone wears new clothes. People come and go, laugh and talk, and live a prosperous life. Prime Minister, have you ever seen a county like this?"
Zhao Yun said a lot in succession, dispelling Zhuge Liang's concerns.
He looked at Jiang Wei who was busy in the distance and suddenly felt unsatisfactory.
It turns out...Jiang Tuo's talent is even higher than Jiang Wei!
"Actually, Prime Minister, this person has another talent!" Zhao Yun whispered: "This talent is what the Prime Minister needs most!"
"What?"
"He can gather people, and he can also win over people!" Zhao Yun reminded: "Prime Minister, in today's Shu Han, officials are divided into several groups privately, some support the Northern Expedition, and some support peace. Your Majesty spends all his time having fun and ignoring government affairs. This is It’s a huge hidden danger!”
Speaking of the current His Majesty, Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang had helpless expressions on their faces.
Liu Chan can't say it's useless, he can only say it's really useless!
He is greedy for pleasure, plays every day, and does not want to make progress. Although I also read, I just forget about it, just like the memory of a fish.
Zhuge Liang always persuaded with great righteousness. At first, Liu Chan listened a little, but in the end, Liu Chan just pretended. When Zhuge Liang left, he returned to his old self.
Every time I go to court, it's like going to a tomb. I sit on the dragon chair and feel drowsy. The advice to the ministers goes in with my left ear and out with the right ear. As soon as it was time to go to court, I immediately became energetic.
Zhuge Liang neither dared to pamper him too much, nor dared to educate him too harshly.
It's really tricky.
"you mean?"
"I think that if you carefully examine his talents, you can make him serve as His Majesty's servant in the future. The two of them are of the same age and complement each other perfectly. They can achieve great achievements through the ages!"
"Attendant?!"
Zhuge Liang was shocked. The position of a minister is not low. He is required to serve the emperor, which is higher than the rank of a minister.
The people who serve as servants now are Guo Youzhi and Fei Yi mentioned in "Chu Shi Biao".
Jiang Tuo... can you afford it?
"Don't be suspicious of people, don't be suspicious of people you employ. Prime Minister, why don't you let him do something first, test his abilities, and then make a decision?"
"makes sense!"
Zhuge Liang nodded in agreement and said: "If he is really talented, it would be fine to make him a servant. He has a similar temperament to your Majesty. If you can always advise your Majesty, your Majesty will definitely be able to revive the late emperor's ambitions."
"If the two of them share the same odor..."
"Haha, probably not!" Zhuge Liang made up his mind and waved his feather fan and said, "Well, I will meet Jiang Tuo. By the way, do you think Jiang Tuo is married?"
"Probably not. I've never heard him talk about it."
"At his age, it's time for marriage." Zhuge Liang asked: "Zilong, tell me, among our ministers in Shu Han, who has a daughter of a similar age to him who is not yet married?"
Zhao Yun smiled bitterly and said: "Prime Minister, I have never cared about these things. Why don't you... find someone to ask?"
"Well, let's ask first. If we meet a suitable girl, we will decide on their marriage. In this way, he will be married, and things will be more secure."
"Isn't this inappropriate?" Zhao Yun shook his head: "I think Jiang Tuo is very assertive in his actions. If we arrange a marriage for him in private, I'm afraid he won't be willing... I think it's better to inform him in advance."
