Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

After everyone retreated, Cao Cao dismissed Dian and Xu and walked down the high platform to Zhang Wu.

"Let's go for a walk with Gu."

"Here."

After leaving Deyang Palace, there was no conversation all the way.

Until you climb the high wall of Zhuque Gate, you can see the prosperity of the city before your eyes.

Boss Cao's face regained some luster.

"Huang Xu'er has grown up, and I want to send him to Zi Qian's house to practice martial arts with you."

Huang Xuer? Cao Zhang?

In the future, he will also be a rare warrior for Cao Wei.

Zhang Wu nodded and replied: "My father-in-law loved Guan Er very much in his early years. It just so happened that he asked me to find a swordsman successor. I thought Ziwen would be a good fit."

"Then Lao Ziqian needs to worry more."

Zhang Wu said suspiciously: "Why is my father-in-law so polite today? I'm not used to it."

The Son of Heaven is a solitary man.

The closer Cao Cao got to that position, the most intuitive feelings he felt were excitement and joy.

More is indeed loneliness.

Now that he is the King of Wei, many people are depressed and it is difficult to explain to others.

What about when he really becomes emperor?

Residents in the city occasionally passed by and saw Cao Cao. They bowed from afar, put on a happy smile, and continued busy with their work.

Cao Cao smiled and nodded as a greeting.

After a long time, I finally made up my mind and bowed with my sleeves closed, just like when I first met Zhang Wu.

Zhang Wu was so frightened that he jumped out of the way and said, "What are you doing, father-in-law!"

"Is it possible that you, Zhang Manzi, have also begun to fear Gu Zhi's high position and deliberately distanced yourself from him?"

"Huh?" Zhang Wu scratched his head: "You are talking about the throne of Wei? Don't talk nonsense. When I was a common man, I saw the emperor and refused to worship him. I killed Yang Feng with a sword in Deyang Palace. I was not accepted by my father-in-law because my father-in-law was not only me. My father-in-law is a wise master who has given me a lot of kindness, so we can’t be that heartless, right?”

Recalling the past life of this barbarian, Cao Cao felt much better. After laughing, he said bluntly: "I want to do something big, so I hope Zi Qian can help me."

"If my father-in-law has something to do, just ask him. It's up to him whether he can help or not."

Cao Cao said solemnly: "The family's disaster is imminent and must be eliminated. It can be eliminated sooner rather than later!"

Are you finally taking action?

"My father-in-law just told me what to do."

"Zi Qian, think about it first. You, Chen Liuzhang, are now one of the wealthy families. Suppressing the aristocratic family will take away the smooth path of promotion for the descendants of the Zhang family. If you don't want to, don't force me."

"My children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. It's not my turn to worry about them. If I leave them food and clothing so that they can have enough food and clothing, I am worthy of them."

Zhang Wu had already looked away from this kind of thing.

If future generations have the ability, they can just rely on their ancestors to call him Zhang Wu, and they can prosper casually.

If future generations are worthless dandies, they can just hang out as kings and have fun. What kind of politics are they really going to get involved in? What is the difference between seeking death?

What's more, the world belongs to the people of the world.

Who has not sacrificed his life to fight for this land? In his heart, the land of China is not the love of his life.

Of course he hopes that Wei, who has carried half his life's hard work, will be better!

"Okay, I want to build a large school, enlighten the people's wisdom, and select the most learned people in the world to serve as officials. However, the collection of books in my hands is huge. Zi Qian might as well borrow some from various tribes for me."

this? ?

this! !

Isn't this the prototype of the imperial examination system in the Sui and Tang Dynasties? !

Based on Boss Cao's political attributes, Zhang Wu naturally had reason to believe that his father-in-law's political vision could not be worse than that of later emperors.

But in this era, what was bad was the soil of the imperial examination system.

In fact, private schools are now gradually replacing government schools.

Many great Confucians have set up schools in various places.

It's just that in the land of Thirteen States, the population base is huge, and all they can do is to award talents on a merit-based basis, which is a drop in the bucket.

Although Cao Cao was ruthless in his determination, Zhang Wu wanted to plunder the family after all. It was almost a half-step decision to show off his face. He couldn't have given such an order without ruthlessness, but what he did was inevitably a bit childish.

Even if Zhang Wuzhen went to plunder the family's collection of books and distribute them in the hands of the head of Guizhou, if one person can't even get a piece of bamboo slips, what's the point?

Just ask someone to copy it?

How long does it take for people in the world to copy all the books? Even if it takes three to five hundred years to copy them, will they be able to read them if they are distributed to the head of Guizhou?

As a soul of later generations, Zhang Wu naturally knew the advantages of the imperial examination system.

He also thought about copying this system.

He can even create soil where there is no soil.

No matter how you say it, he is still young. Although he has never done basic papermaking and movable type printing himself, the principles are still clear and clear.

The reason why it has not been mentioned yet.

On the one hand, he is not a monarch, he is just a general. He himself has no position to dig out the lifeblood of aristocratic families. fight

That's his duty. If you cross a border rashly, you will be criticized by both sides, and your efforts will be thankless. Whether it can be implemented smoothly or not is one thing.

On the other hand, improving papermaking technology, creating movable type printing, and educating the people of the world are such things. It shouldn't be done by a general who doesn't want to be an emperor.

Seeing that Zhang Wu remained silent for a long time, Cao Cao asked, "What's the matter? Zi Qian feels embarrassed?"

In fact, there was no embarrassment. If there wasn't a better way to rob the wealthy family, since Cao Cao dared to say it, Zhang Wu would naturally dare to do it.

He just suddenly remembered the last sentence of the biography of Jin Wu in the "Book of Wei" he had returned from Ran Min.

In the sixth year of Zhongxing Dynasty, Wei Wu was seriously ill and wanted to pass the throne to the king of Jin. The King of Jin refused to grant him the title, so his family went into seclusion without a trace. In the seventh year of the Zhongxing Dynasty, Wei Wu collapsed. Emperor Wen Pi succeeded him and rebuilt Yunxiao to show his achievements. '

The friendship is touching.

A man who is a king can dig out his heart and lungs, what else can he hide and hide?

Well, since he is already the number one general in history, I think only an unprecedented and unparalleled monarch can be my assistant.

After thinking about it, Zhang Wu just said: "My father-in-law knew that I had learned from a Taoist. In fact, this Taoist had a broad mind and learned a lot. He once gave me two things. I don't need to loot the family, and I can get tens of millions of books. But it involves It’s so huge, my father-in-law still needs to guarantee that he has the exclusive title before I can take it out.”

The 'Taoist' mentioned by Zhang Wu here is not a system, but the crystallization of five thousand years of Chinese wisdom.

He has made up his mind to be a pure general.

After retirement, the most you can do is hold a temporary position in the government without actually participating in it.

So it’s better to say some things clearly in advance.

Otherwise, with Boss Cao's temperament, it's hard to guarantee that anything will happen.

Zhang Wu didn't want those students to think of themselves as Jinwu disciples after retirement, and people would visit him every day, which would annoy him to death.

Cao Cao didn't take it seriously at all, and responded casually: "Okay, Gu Ying, come quickly."

"First, improved papermaking technology can greatly reduce manufacturing costs on Caihou paper."

"The second is movable type printing. As long as the paper problem is solved, thousands of books can be produced in one day."

Looking at Cao Cao again, he looked calm and calm before, but now his mouth was wide open and his eyes were wide open, his breathing was rapid and his pupils were constricted, as if he had seen a ghost.
