Text Volume Chapter 542: Nothing Like a Tree Man

Heifu knew that his wife was smart. She had been jumping up and down since he went to accompany him to become a Zen monk. Although she was in Jimo Mansion and rarely went out, she knew everything clearly. When she came back last night, Ye Zijin wanted to say goodbye. Hugh, something must be wrong.

So, Hei Fu asked his nephew Wei Yang to play with Polu. He walked to his wife, kissed her hair, and asked, "What do you want to tell me?"

"Besides the male lead, there are some things within the male lead that I shouldn't have to interfere with."

Ye Zijin raised his head and said to Hei Fu: "But if you don't tell me, I will feel uneasy."

"Husband and wife are one, you tell me."

Ye Zijin bowed his head and said: "I recently heard that my beloved was in Linzi and Jiaodong, admonishing people to burn books and stop seeking immortality. Not only did they completely part ways with Prime Minister Li, but they also became enemies with Warlock Fang. After learning about this, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep at night and couldn't eat. . As the proverb goes, any tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Now that my beloved is a feudal official before he is thirty years old, he has attracted enough attention. I thought that by staying away from the capital and coming to Jiaodong, he would be able to curb his sharpness and avoid the limelight. Who would have expected? …”

She had a feeling that Mr. Hei had been very impatient recently. Before one thing was completed, he would interfere with another. As a result, he made more and more enemies. In the past, he had a rift with Zhao Gao, but now he has fallen out with Zhutian, and even surrounded Prime Minister Li Sihe. The alchemists around the emperor were also offended.

The calm Heifu in Nanjun and Beiland has changed. He is like a traveler staring at the time and rushing on his way, fighting against things that Ye Zijin cannot see...

Out of concern, Ye Zijin told a story: "Once upon a time, Zeng Shen lived in Feiyi. There was a man in the state of Lu with the same surname as Zeng Shen who killed someone. Someone told Zeng's mother that 'Zeng Shen killed someone'. Zeng's mother was weaving. He looked calm and said, "My son will not kill anyone." After a while, another person came and told Zeng's mother, "Zeng Shen killed someone." Zeng's mother was still weaving, but started to look out the window. After a while, another person came and told Zeng's mother, "Zeng Shen killed someone." , Zeng’s mother was afraid and threw a tree over the wall and ran away.”

"Based on Zeng Shen's virtue and Zeng's mother's deep faith in him, the three of them became suspicious and even made Zeng's mother really think that he had killed someone. Now my dear man may not be as upright and loyal as Zeng Shen. Although your majesty trusts you, , but it will never exceed Zeng's mother's trust in Zeng Shen. If there are more than three people in the court who speak ill of my beloved, I'm afraid that Your Majesty will be like Zeng's mother, doubting the loyalty of my beloved..."

"Because of this, I can't eat food that tastes good to me, I can't sleep at night, and I feel uneasy about the baby in my belly."

"That's not it."

Hei Fu shook his head and said: "Although I am outside, with His Majesty's temperament, he is not suspicious of people but not of people he employs. He patrols the world every year and has seen the achievements of Jiaodong with his own eyes. These things will not be slandered by a few people." Offset. In addition, I attribute all the credit to God and all the fault to myself. His Majesty is very satisfied. Not only will he not doubt me, but he will also hope that I will do more..."

At most, it would be to transfer Commander Ren Xiao from Guangji County to Jiaodong, and use this capable and seasoned general of building ships to take over the military power that Heifu once held, and that's all...

As long as he has no soldiers, no matter how powerful Hei Fu is, he is still just an airborne foreign county guard.

You may not think that Qin Shihuang was grand and heroic in his actions, but in fact, he was extremely familiar with the art of balance and was proficient in different opinions.

During the court, Wang Wan was implicated by Confucian scholars and lost power. Li Siquan was in power, so he supported Ye Teng to contend with him. Although Ye Teng has no foundation, he has a good son-in-law, Hei Fu, and the situation between the ruling and opposition parties has become entangled.

But once Ye and Hei are stronger, Qin Shihuang's suppressive hand may come down again - "If the pirates cannot be wiped out in one year, the Jiaodong County Governor will be replaced" was Qin Shihuang's casual saying because he was deceived by the magician Fang. ? At that time, it is not impossible to directly let Hei Fu return to Xianyang, respect his position, and arrange idle work for ten years.

But Heifu can't control that much anymore. He knows that after Ren Xiao takes office, he will never be able to control the military power in Jiaodong. But his layout in this county is enough. Next, he needs to look at the world and the court again, and look at the future. .

So Hei Fu took his wife's hand and said to her: "A year ago, when I first came here, I used Othello as a piece and placed it on it. I thought about Jiaodong, the old clans, the fields, the scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, who is mine? Enemies, who are our friends? After we have made a clear distinction between black and white, we should win over each other, suppress and suppress, be neutral and neutral, and eradicate and eradicate..."

"Now, with the power of His Majesty's eastward patrol, the people of the county are convinced that even the fields are in great danger. Your Majesty has decided to uproot the fields and move them to other places when leaving Jiaodong. In this way, Jiaodong will be my friends. The only enemies left are bandits and overseas anti-Qin people."

Ye Zijin nodded and praised: "My dear man is really a born politician. He pulls one faction to fight another, and in a moment, the enemy invaders have become like chickens and dogs."

Heifu smiled: "So I have made too many enemies in the government and the public. How could I not know? Therefore, even if it is to protect myself, I should have more and more friends!"

With the great mountain of Qin Shihuang standing above us, it would be foolish to imagine that we could kill the enemy like Jiaodong did. The emperor would allow different opinions to stir up confusion, but he would never allow the balance to be broken!

It was impossible for Heifu to destroy the enemy physically. He could only recruit more aid and gain some friends.

But you have to know which friends you can make and which friends you should keep a distance from.

Even though Heifu and Li Xin had worked together, they could not exchange a single letter.

He and the Wang family had an old friendship with Wang Jian as matchmaker, and Wang Ben was still his old boss, but in front of Qin Shihuang, Hei Fu and Wang Ben had to be strangers.

The same goes for the Mengtian brothers. It's impossible to hook up. It's best to have a small superficial conflict.

Young Master Fusu... the water is too deep and cannot be touched, at least not now.

In short, a black man and a general who holds military power, or a veteran who has prestige in the army, can never be friends!

His friends can only be small people who seem to be of little use now and are dispensable.

For example, a learned man like Zhang Cang, a Mohist who has declined to less than ten members, or a farmer who cares about nothing but farming.

In the past few months, Heifu seemed to be running around trying to take care of everything, but in fact, whether it was friendship or enmity, he was as careful as a surgical operation, because one mistake could touch Qin Shihuang's body. Reverse scale!

The more Ye Zijin listened, the more surprised she became. Heifu's political wisdom was already so high that she admired him.

"My beloved is really more sinister than my father!"

Heifu didn't know what his wife was complaining about, so he went on to say that he and Li Si's political views were destined to be at odds with each other. Li Si fought back desperately and took away the responsibility of editing books. He burned them all, and the learning of hundreds of schools of thought would be extinct. With Li Si's urine, it is possible that He will also attack Heifu's potential friends.

Therefore, in order to keep them, Heifu proposed to establish a new study of workers and peasants in government education, based on Qin Mohe farmers, specializing in the study of worker and peasant techniques, so that advanced agricultural equipment and techniques could be spread throughout the world.

Because the printing technology and cabbage tofu left a deep impression on Qin Shihuang, seeing that Heifu had good reasons, the emperor readily agreed.

Heifu valued more than just the knowledge of the two families. He wanted to put the knowledge learned by the Mozhe Farmers into practice and spread correct values.

It is also because, over time, the workers, peasants and officials trained up have their values ​​indirectly influenced by Heifu, and they are also Heifu's natural partners in politics. These grassroots officials are spread all over the world. Although they have no important real power, they are very important.

This is the meaning of "Unite Workers and Peasants" written on the blackboard by Heifu when he was drunk.

Heifu said earnestly: "A one-year plan is better than tree valley; a ten-year plan is better than trees; a lifelong plan is better than planting people... What I plan is a lifelong plan."

This is indeed a lifetime's work. Heifu is like an old farmer who domesticates cereal trees, selecting good seeds, carefully straightening the early seedlings, loosening the soil and fertilizing them, and then looking forward to the golden autumn with a bumper harvest under the influence of nature. …

He can't encourage it to grow, as that will only be counterproductive. We cannot sit idly by and let the wild boars in the mountains and forests destroy the seedlings, or let the wildfires burn the farmland to white ground. In short, it is not easy to cultivate this three-thirds of an acre of land.

"I understand!"

Ye Zijin's eyes sparkled. Since Hei Fu had a long-term plan, she was no longer worried: "I only have one thing left to know."

This last question, Ye Zijin hesitated again and again, and finally asked seriously: "What is a beloved man's lifelong plan?"

Heifu was stunned. Fortunately, Ye Zijin's next sentence was:

"My father has thought about the position of Prime Minister, which is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. My father has thought about it all his life. Does my beloved want to compete for it in the future?"

ps: I am traveling, so I have two short updates.
