Chapter 64: Governing a country is like cooking small fresh food

Su Hu, Jiang Hengchu and the others all looked at Li Yuan, they wanted to see if Li Yuan dared to accept the recruitment, whether it was really as Shang Rong, Bi Gan and others boasted, there was real talent.

Li Yuan calmly ate a grain of Chitose, and then asked Ji Chang unhurriedly: “What’s wrong with Old Ji?” ”

Ji Chang automatically filtered out Li Yuan’s strange name, and asked:

“Xiaoyou thinks, how can we govern a country well?”

Li Yuan smiled faintly, “Lao Ji, your question is big enough and general enough. ”

Ji Chang also smiled:

“Mainly old businessmen,”

Hmm, slip of the tongue,

“Prime Minister Shang Cheng and Prime Minister Bi Gan Cheng have often mentioned Xiaoyou in the ear of the old man these days, and the talent of the two Cheng is full of praise. Therefore, the old man took the most difficult question to ask Xiaoyou, wondering if Xiaoyou could solve my confusion? ”

Li Yuan picked up a piece of crispy fried small yellow fish with chopsticks, and said in a relaxed tone:

“This problem is easy, ruling a big country, is like cooking small fresh.”

“Poof!”

When Chonghou Hu heard Li Yuan’s answer, he couldn’t help but laugh.

He ridiculed Li Yuan with a sarcastic look:

“I thought you would say something deafening about governance, but I didn’t expect you to compare governance with boiling fish, can the two be the same?” It’s better to be famous than to meet, and it’s better to meet than to be famous. ”

E Chongyu and Jiang Hengchu also showed disappointment. I feel that Li Yuan is grandstanding.

Su Hu was even more angry that his face turned black, and he felt ashamed.

Daji heard Chonghou Hu laughing at her brother, her little face was red with anger, she wanted to stand up and help her brother, but unfortunately, she didn’t know how to govern the country, so she had to be anxious.

Only Shang Rong, Bi Gan, Huang Feihu, and Deng Jiugong knew that Li Yuan would not be untargeted, so he looked calm.

However, they actually don’t understand what this saying about governing the country that future generations of elementary school students know, means?

Ji Chang was stunned for a moment.

I also feel that Li Yuan’s name is not worthy of the truth.

However, when he savored the phrase “governing a big country is like cooking small fresh” in his heart, he suddenly felt that this sentence was full of charm and seemed to contain some kind of philosophy.

Therefore, he did not laugh at Li Yuan, but humbly asked Li Yuan again:

“Xiaoyou said too profoundly, I don’t know if I can explain it for us, what is ‘governing a big country is like cooking small fresh’?”

Chonghou Hu saw that Ji Chang was still asking Li Yuan for advice from Corporal Lixian, and the smile on his face couldn’t help but shrink, and he asked Ji Chang in bewilderment:

“Didn’t Xi Bohou see that this person was not really talented? Why do you still ask him for advice? ”

Ji Changhe Yan Yueshi said:

“I think Xiaoyou’s words have some truth, but I can’t fully understand the meaning contained in them, so I specially asked Xiaoyou for advice.”

“Makes sense?” Chonghou Hu looked surprised.

Jiang Hengchu and Su Hu also showed surprise, and couldn’t help but start savoring the phrase “governing a big country is like cooking small fresh”.

Li Yuan was calm and calm from beginning to end, and did not show any embarrassment at all because of Chonghou Hu’s ignorant mockery.

Seeing that Ji Changwen was respectful, he could ask without shame, and couldn’t help but nod approvingly.

No wonder Ji Chang can replace King Jun and sit on the rivers and mountains, which is indeed extraordinary.

It is not a little stronger than the three major princes of Chonghou Hu, Jiang Hengchu, and E Chongyu.

Li Yuan said to Ji Chang approvingly:

“Old Ji is not bad, I don’t understand but I know to ask. Unlike Lao Chong, he didn’t understand the philosophy in my words, not only didn’t know to ask, but also had no brains to ridicule. ”

“You…”

Chonghou Hu saw that Li Yuanzhong was brainless, and his face was as black as carbon in anger.

If it weren’t for Wen Zhong’s respect for Li Yuan, even Chonghou Hu would want to turn his face in public.

“Hmph, I’d rather hear what you can say.” Chonghou Hu flicked a sentence angrily.

Ji Chang heard Li Yuan’s approval, but he was also a little crying and laughing.

It was praise, but he thought it was more like sarcasm.

However, Ji Chang was not angry, but looked at Li Yuan expectantly, waiting for Li Yuan to explain.

Li Yuan did not hang everyone’s appetite and explained:

“Those who cook small fresh food, do not scratch, those who rule the country, do not be annoyed, annoying will hurt people, scratch will rot the fish!”

The meaning of this sentence is that frying small fish should not be repeatedly turned, repeated turning will make the fish easy to rot, and to govern a large country, those in power must not be irritable, government orders must not be repeated, irritability and repeated government orders can easily lead to people’s disappointment, government orders do not understand.

The phrase that governing a country is like cooking Xiaoxian comes from Lao Tzu’s Tao Te Ching.

And the phrase “Those who cook small fresh food, do not be bothered, and those who govern big countries must not be annoyed…” This sentence is Tang Xuanzong’s commentary on “governing a big country is like cooking small fresh”.

Almost everyone in power in later generations will drink this phrase to encourage themselves or admonish others.

After listening to Li Yuan’s words, Shang Rong, Bi Gan and the others suddenly realized like a daigo empowerment.

“That’s what it means, and this metaphor is really appropriate.”

“Governing a big country is like cooking small fresh food, and the more you taste it, the more wonderful it feels.”

Ji Chang was so excited that he was amazed:

“Seconds, seconds, governing a big country is like cooking small fresh, and it really contains the principle of governing the country.”

He looked at Li Yuan eagerly, so excited that his long hair couldn’t stop trembling, this person was simply the good face he had been looking for.

“Sir is really talented, Ji Chang is impressed.” Excited, Ji Chang actually stood up and bowed to Li Yuan.

And the title for Li Yuan also became “sir”.

You know, the word sir is equivalent to a teacher, and only those who have excellent insight and talent are worthy of the title of sir.

This shows how excited Ji Chang is in his heart.

Chonghou Hu, Jiang Hengchu, and Su Hu couldn’t help but change their views on Li Yuan now.

They were not straw bales, and naturally understood Li Yuan’s explanation.

Immediately felt that Li Yuan was indeed talented and capable of governing the country.

Daji saw that his brother only used one sentence, which made the princes in the room fall to the ground, and a small face suddenly smiled brighter than a flower.

It was even happier than she was praised.

Li Yuan did not look complacent because of everyone’s praise, and still ate the dishes and drank wine calmly and calmly.

After Ji Chang bowed, he asked Li Yuan again:

“Sir’s words of ‘governing a country is like cooking small fresh food’ are indeed wonderful and make people feel open. Ji Chang also has a question that he wants to ask Xiaoyou, and he also hopes that Mr. will give him advice. ”

Li Yuan: “Say.” ”

Ji Chang: “I don’t know what exactly to do to make the country strong?” ”

This problem is much more difficult than the one just now.

Just now, Ji Chang asked how to govern a country well, and this can be answered very generally, as long as you can say convincing truths.

But the problem of “making the country strong” must have a concrete and feasible method, which cannot be solved with a few words.

Almost all those in power will face this problem – to make the country strong. However, since ancient times, few people have been able to hand over satisfactory answers.
