Big businessman.
God Emperor Xin looked at Taizu and Ying Zheng with a delighted smile on his face.
Taizu and Ying Zheng gave him a really big surprise. Although Ying Zheng and Taizu are not satisfied with their current achievements. But Di Xin knew in his heart that these two people were too harsh on him. The achievements of the two of them are enough to put everyone to shame. Even if Di Xin were in their position, he might not be able to do better than the two of them.
This can be seen from the face of the master who was the emperor before Dashang. Such as Liu Che, such as Li Shimin, such as Zhao Kuangyin, such as Zhu Yuanzhang.
Especially after Taizu revealed his views on the Six Realms, everyone was even more shocked. There was a rare buzz of discussion in the Great Shang court.
In this regard, even Di Xin had to say that it was well said.
No wonder Taizu was so highly regarded in later generations. Taizu can be said to have been in power for five thousand years.
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Di Xin shouted out the word "good" three times in a row. It was enough to show how happy Di Xin was feeling at this moment. Emperor Xin did not worry about how capable his subordinates were. His only worry is that his subordinates are all mediocre people.
A minister who can share his burden is the minister he needs. The minister who can make him worry less is the minister in his heart.
Taizu was such a person.
"Your Majesty, I think this prime minister should give up his position to Taizu. I am really not capable enough to take on the complex situation of today's big merchants." After Di Xin shouted three good words, he did not expect the next step. The first person to speak was the Prime Minister Shang Rong.
He sincerely requested Emperor Xin to remove himself from the position of prime minister.
After hearing Shang Rong's words, all the ministers showed admiration on their faces. They all knew in their hearts that this was not Shang Rong playing tricks on Taizu and putting on a high hat. It's Shang Rong's true feelings.
Shang Rong is a truly selfless person among the great businessmen. He only has Dashang in his heart, and anything that is beneficial to Dashang is his business. For this, he can sacrifice everything. Including the position of Prime Minister, including his life. No one in Dashang would deny this.
I still remember that when Emperor Xin first decided on the reward, Shang Rong and Bigan rejected it once. That was to give them Huang Zhongli and Li Hao to improve their strength. Such an important transformation. Shang Rong bluntly said that he did not need it and wanted Di Xin to give it to generals who could fight in all directions.
You must know that that gift provoked many corrupt elements in the big merchants. Therefore, it can better explain Shang Rong's pure heart.
Now it seems like that scene happened again.
Shang Rong gives way!
You must know how respected the position of Prime Minister of Dashang is now, the head of hundreds of officials. This kind of status is really above one person and below ten thousand people among big merchants. Even among all the worlds, Shang Rong's status at the moment is quite important. No one will ignore Shang Rong when he goes out. Although Shang Rong's strength is not as strong as that of Hongmeng Dagong, no matter which Hongmeng Dagong is, he must treat Shang Rong, the Great Shang Prime Minister, equally.
With such a status, the officials asked themselves that it was impossible for them to do what Shang Rong did. This is not to say that the officials do not look towards the great merchants, or that they do not have the great merchants in their hearts. But all officials are confident that they can do better.
They won't have the idea of Shang Rong that I am inferior to others. Shang Rong's state of mind can be regarded as the path to sincerity.
Everything he does respects the thoughts in his heart. Do whatever comes to your mind.
He now believed that Taizu was better than him in running the court and planning for the future, so he accepted this fact honestly. He believed in his heart that Taizu could do better than him in the future, so he respected his heart and gave up his throne to Taizu.
This state of mind is called the way to sincerity!
Even though there are so many important officials in Dashang, all of them are so extraordinary. But there are very few people whose state of mind can reach the path of sincerity.
Probably the state of mind of Prime Minister Shang Rong, Yabi Gan, and Mencius can reach the point of sincerity.
"The Prime Minister has shamed me!"
After hearing what Prime Minister Shang Rong said, Taizu reacted immediately and hurriedly retorted.
Yes, Taizu was intentional.
Not only Taizu, but everyone in Dashang was determined to compete for a higher position. But they all know that the position of Prime Minister can only be Shang Rong, and it can only be Shang Rong. No one can occupy this seat.
Over the years, Shang Rong has set an example for everyone in Dachang with his actions and his heart. That is the conduct of a prime minister.
No one is dissatisfied with Shang Rong as prime minister.
Moreover, Shang Rong is a third-generation veteran of Dashang. Before they arrived, before His Majesty was born, Shang Rong was already the prime minister of Dashang.
Therefore, whether it is based on legal principles, merit, or virtue, Shang Rong deserves to be the prime minister.
Taizu knew that he had a chance to take over the position of prime minister today. After all, this was Shang Rong's initiative to give up the position, and no one could tell what happened. Shang Rong will definitely recommend him to take the position of prime minister.
But that’s not how it looks. That’s not how things work either.
It is true that he could take over the position of Prime Minister today. But Taizu knew very well that he would definitely hate everyone if he behaved like this. People like Shang Rong are respected by everyone.
"I, Dashang, will continue to be glorious under your leadership. We, the younger generation, will go further under your leadership. I just have some little cleverness. I will never learn the great wisdom from you." Yes." Taizu continued.
"Yes! Sir, you will always be the prime minister in our hearts."
"My lord, no one can hold the position of prime minister but you."
"My lord, please take back your words."
Next, it was not just Taizu who spoke. After everyone came back to their senses, they all started talking.
As Taizu expected, everyone 100% recognized Shang Rong as prime minister. This position is not something everyone can do.
Di Xin looked at everyone and said with a smile: "It seems that everyone is in the same mood. Shang Rong, you still have to shoulder this position."
Di Xin concluded the matter with one sentence. He directly silenced Shang Rong's continued words.
Although Di Xin also knew that Shang Rong had good intentions. But just like when he governed the great merchants, sometimes he had to do things against his will. He cannot leave it to your heart.
This is the problem now.
Although Shang Rong made a kind move, he put Taizu in an embarrassing position. He neglected himself and ignored some rules.
"But don't worry, Taizu will take care of you." (https:)
