And because of the reform of the emperor and prime minister, the official atmosphere of the Zhou Dynasty can be said to be a breath of fresh air among other countries. Regardless of nationality, age, or origin, capable people will soon be reused.
Although in the cultural field, Zhou State is still half a desert compared to other countries, it is true that seven to eight out of ten talented people in the world are concentrated here.
When the news spread that the Sixth Prince had recruited the children of the Yinghou Mansion under the emperor's order, the whole country was in a sensation.
The officials of the Zhou Kingdom were surprised that in addition to the eldest son of the emperor, another prince entered the finals. Considering the background and biological mother of the sixth prince, they felt that this half-year-old boy must have some outstanding conditions.
Otherwise, how could he surpass the previous princes and win the emperor's favor, and not be rejected by a single vote because of his biological mother?
Scholars who wanted to join the army flocked to him, and for a while, the sixth prince became very popular, and even showed signs of surpassing the eldest son.
After all, most people can see that the emperor's eldest son is both the legitimate son and the eldest son, but he has not been appointed as the prince. It can be seen that the emperor is not very satisfied with him. Now he suddenly has a new goal. Who can Don't you want to give it a try?
As for recruiting customers, Ying Zheng took it very lightly, and even wasn't very enthusiastic about it. He handed the matter over to Zhang Liang and Zheng Zheng - the one who was better at writing among the two brothers. , and he walked around the capital with strictness.
One is to observe the scene of the capital after the reform, and the other is to take this opportunity to understand the local customs and customs.
Li Shimin folded his hands and said: "I never expected that the First Emperor would actually take Jing Ke shopping. Who would look at this and say it's magical."
A small cross flower bloomed on Ying Zheng's forehead, and he just pretended not to hear him and ignored him.
He didn't like to talk, and Jing Ke was also taciturn. Now Ying Zheng knew why he thought the son of Yinghou was calm and self-possessed in the past - at that time, he met this boring gourd, didn't he like to talk?
Thinking about it again makes me feel suffocated.
Unable to respond to the strict words in front of me, I could only secretly tell my old friends my full grievances: "When Jing Ke went to assassinate me, Gao Jianli saw him off at the edge of Yishui. Later, I destroyed the six kingdoms and captured him." He lived in Gao Jianli, because he was kind-hearted and cherished his talents, so he didn't kill him. I didn't expect that he would be so ignorant and take the opportunity to assassinate!"
Old guys: "..."
"A kindhearted person?"
Liu Che: "First Emperor, do you want to listen to what you are saying? Although labeling you a tyrant may feel a little unfair to you, but you don't have to overstep your limits and be kind-hearted, right?"
Li Shimin: "How did Gao Jianli become blind?"
Ying Zheng: "..."
Ying Zheng became angry from embarrassment: "None of this is important!"
He said: "The important thing is that these two were as close as brothers in their last life, and they both died in my hands. I never thought that they would become brothers in this life, and an unexpected combination of circumstances made them consummate."
Li Yuanda scratched his head: "If you want a biological brother, it's not impossible. Anyway, Concubine Quan is still young and there will be a lot of time in the future. I just don't know if you two brothers have the same father..."
He felt embarrassed when he said this: "God, what a joke from hell!"
Zhu Yuanzhang: "It is also possible to give birth to Cheng Xi with Emperor Zhou..."
"Fuck," he couldn't help but say, "This is even worse!"
Ying Zheng: "..."
Ying Zheng began to regret why he took the initiative to bring up this topic.
He walked around the capital for a whole day with Yan Yan. In the evening, he went to find Zhang Liang again and asked if he had met any good talents recently.
Zhang Liang had obviously been waiting for a long time. As soon as he saw him, he couldn't wait to greet him. After handing him the admission list, he repeatedly recommended: "Your Highness, Liang met an amazing genius today. He is truly a wise man in the world, please be sure to meet him!"
Zhang Liang was fashionable and young, especially because he was not a full-fledged Liuhou from later generations. But even so, to be admired by him so much was by no means an ordinary person.
Ying Zheng then straightened his expression: "Has the person come by name?"
Zhang Liangdao: "The surname is Gongsun, and the single name is Yi."
Ying Zheng was thoughtful: "My surname is Gongsun..."
At this time, the word "Gongsun" was not only a surname, but also a symbol of status.
The princes are called Dukes, and Gongsun, as the name implies, is the grandson of the princes.
If this was still the Warring States period, then the original owner should be called "Gongzi Ming". If the original owner's grandfather was in power, then the original owner should be called "Gongsun Ming".
For example, Shang Yang was called Shang Yang because he had made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty and was granted the title of Shang. Before that, he was called Gongsun Yang, or Wei Yang - he was from the Duke of Wei.
The visitor called him Gongsun Yi, thinking that his ancestors had many prominent times, but times have changed, and the kings in the old days had to fend for themselves now.
Zhang Liang personally invited Mr. Gongsun to come and meet the Sixth Prince.
Ying Zheng glanced at the recruitment list in his hand and asked seriously: "Is this Mr. Gongsun really, as Zifang said, a rare genius in the world?"
He pondered solemnly for a few moments, and finally said: "Mr. Gongsun is indeed a genius in governing the world, but the ovary respects him so much. Perhaps he is also the same person who governs Huang Lao, and also works with Huang Lao's sect, Lao Meishi For the sake of public relations.”
After saying that, he carefully looked at the Sixth Prince's expression.
After Ying Zheng heard this, his expression remained unchanged, and he sat firmly in the same place, showing no signs of change.
Today's talent selection meeting is dominated by Zhang Liang and supplemented by Zheng Zheng. From a factional point of view, they are all disciples of the Sixth Prince. However, other than that, their tendencies are completely opposite.
Zhang Liang is a visitor from another country, and Zhen Zhen is a scholar of Zhou Dynasty;
Zhang Liang governed Huang Lao and was a serious legalist.
It’s all about the dragon’s merit, who doesn’t want to come out on top?
The competition began when the sixth prince received the emperor's handwriting and could openly recruit customers.
Ying Zheng never thought of stopping this behavior. As a lord, it may not be a good thing if all his subordinates are of the same mind, and power does need to be restricted and balanced.
All he has to do is to control the measurement.
Isn't the so-called emperor a person who adheres to standards and measures the world?
In a moment, Zhang Liang led Gongsun Yi over.
Ying Zheng raised his eyes and saw that the person who came was a middle-aged scribe, wearing a long-sleeved broad robe, with three strands of beard, and a fairy-like manner. He certainly looked like he was treating Huang Lao.
His mind wandered slightly - this gentleman seems to have more capital to cultivate immortality than Zhang Liang!
Ying Zheng then sat up straight and asked seriously: "Mr. Gongsun is the master of Huang Lao. He has been here recently. What can you teach me?"
Gongsun Yi stood opposite him and said in a calm tone: "I disappoint Your Highness. I am not a scholar who treats Huang Lao."
Before Ying Zheng could react, Zhang Liang was surprised: "Huh?!"
He couldn't help but said: "You clearly claimed to be a scholar, Huang Lao, and you talked about Lao and Zhuang with Liang, and you all said it succinctly..."
Gongsun Yi smiled and said: "In order to get the top spot, I deliberately played into his favourites. If not, how could I stand out from the crowd and get your recommendation?"
Zhang Liang looked angry and suddenly stood up: "Then you said before that you would never go against the odds with Mei Shigong..."
Gongsun Yi answered him frankly: "Of course it's all nonsense!"
Zhang Liang was furious: "You shameless guy——"
He was almost about to ask someone to drive this liar out, but at this moment the other party calmly raised his hand: "Hey, please calm down. Look, isn't His Highness the Sixth Prince very calm?"
Zhang Liang endured his anger and sat back.
Ying Zheng watched the scene in front of him with great interest, and suddenly found it very interesting.
Gongsun Yi is not a scholar from the Huang family, but he can pretend to deceive Zhang Liang, a famous rising star from the Huang family. How can he be an ordinary person?
And Zhang Liang may not be aware of this. The reason why he is so angry, apart from the irritation of being deceived, may not be that he also wants to take this opportunity to completely separate from this adventurous guy!
As for Seriousness, as the third person outside of the contradiction, aren’t his thoughts and positions also very interesting?
And this ever-changing relationship is the charm of politics!
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng couldn't help but show a hint of interest in his eyes. He stopped smiling slightly and asked Gongsun Yi: "Zifang is right. Mr. Gongsun really should give me an explanation."
Gongsun Yi stood up and saluted, and said slowly: "Your Highness, Rong Zhen, my surname is Gongsun, and my only name is Yi. I govern the family. I am willing to work for your Highness!"
After finishing speaking, he calmly took off the wide-sleeved robe, revealing the neat robe with narrow sleeves inside. Then he tore off the three strands of camouflaged beard on his chin, and finally... I forgot to let my hair down and changed my hairstyle again.
After this, the immortal spirit unique to Huang Lao in his body immediately disappeared without a trace, but his eyes were bright, his face was smiling, and his spirit was several times more exciting than before.
Zhang Liang's previous anger was probably an act. Seeing him go through the entire process without changing his expression, his anger became more real: "Mr. Gongsun, from the time we met until now, have you said anything?" Have you told the truth?"
Gongsun Yi looked at him with a smile and said, "Yes."
Zhang Liang said coldly: "I would like to hear the details!"
Gongsun Yi: "My real name is Gongsun Yi."
Zhang Liang was furious for a moment and fell silent.
Mingyi manages the family and is so capable of bending and stretching.
Ying Zheng had already recognized who the visitor was.
"I saw a gangster tyrannizing me from a distance. When I got closer, I saw that it was me, the Prime Minister of the State of Qin..."
Chapter 199
The eldest son of the emperor was very depressed and uncomfortable.
I was fighting with my wife and felt very depressed and uncomfortable.
After losing the fight, I felt even more depressed and uncomfortable.
After the fight, my mother ordered her to report her illness and not go out at will. She felt even more depressed and uncomfortable.
Hearing again that his father actually favored Lao Liu so much and bestowed upon him the honor that only he had in the past - the eldest son of the Emperor was not only uncomfortable, he simply wished he could go to the Emperor's presence, squirming and squirming on the ground. Biting!
Why?
A mere bastard is worthy of keeping pace with him!
According to his character, which has never been wronged, even if he is afraid of his father, he should make a big fuss after hearing the news. Queen Qianshan issued a death order and asked people to take care of him and recuperate in the palace. As for Lao Liu , she just tried to persuade him to relax and said she would handle it.
The eldest son of the emperor could only be trapped in the palace depressedly, thinking: My mother has never lied to me, saying that there is a way to deal with the sixth child, then there must be a way!
Because he was too bored, he couldn't help but start thinking: How would the queen deal with him?
Just find an assassin to kill him?
Or are you using your righteousness to overwhelm him?
Surely nothing will go wrong, right?
The eldest son of the emperor fell into melancholy and could not extricate himself.
