Zhi Xuan

Chapter 281

Zhao Hao stayed in the Western Capital for ten days, during which time he and Zhi Xuan reached several cooperations.

The land policy proposed by Zhixuan was approved by Zhao Hao, and most of them were adopted.Some items have been revised and decided to implement them in the Southern Zhao Kingdom, the faster the better.

The two are entangled in various affairs, and it is difficult to have a leisure time.

Within ten days, Zhixuan stopped the imperial court for five days, which was unprecedented and attracted people's attention.

The officials guessed the inside story, most of them knew the current affairs, kept a strict tone, and did not comment on it.

Zhixuan seriously introspects, and has no intention of continuing to let himself go, and decides to restrain himself after Zhao Hao leaves, so that he can no longer act recklessly like this.

Zhao Hao originally planned to stay for a while, but flying cavalry came frequently, and the old southern clans were ready to move, with ulterior motives.He can't stay abroad for a long time, he must return to the country immediately, so as not to give someone who is interested in taking advantage of the loophole.

The day before his departure, Zhi Xuan hosted a banquet at the Monarch's Mansion.The music continued until late at night, before the banquet dispersed.

The wine is hot and the ears are hot, the drunk is hazy, and the reason melts away.

Zhi Xuan was fascinated by the color again, lingered by the aroma of cold and wine, he didn't know what night it was.

As a result of a night of indulgence, the next morning, Zhi Xuan was awakened by a servant, yawned, changed into a uniform, and drove Zhao Hao away.

All the way to the outside of the city, Zhi Xuan never got out of the car, with two dark circles on his face, his listlessness was obvious.

Zhao Hao knew the reason why.

The townspeople didn't know anything about it, and seeing the solemn expression on the monarch's face, and showing no intention of saying goodbye to Marquis Nanzhao, which was nothing like the love in the legend, they couldn't help but be puzzled.This led to speculation and frequent rumors, and there were divergent opinions for a while, and it was difficult to reach a conclusion.

As the person concerned, Zhi Xuan was serious in front of people, and when he returned to the mansion, the door was closed, and he couldn't stand still, grinning while leaning on the table.

He was indeed drunk last night, but not unconscious.

The reason why Zhao Hao lost control was his own, no wonder others.

Zhi Xuan sat back on the couch while rubbing his waist.Feeling uncomfortable, he simply lay down on his side and recalled all the previous things. Although it was a bit exaggerated, overall, it was not too unexpected.

He had to admit that it was worth the price of admission to see the beauty out of control.

With all the calculations, he should have made a profit.

On the day Zhao Hao left, Zhi Xuan had no intention of going to court and decided to rest for a day.I was so sleepy that I didn't even have lunch, so I slept for most of the day.

This disappointed the chef who was full of expectations.

At the banquet last night, the chefs tried their best to present carefully cooked dishes with the intention of competing.Strive to surpass your peers and stand out in front of the king.

To everyone's disappointment, they didn't wait for the king's reward until the end of the banquet.

The cooks did not give up, and waited under the stove the next day, and finally waited for the servant who delivered the decree. Unfortunately, it was not a reward, but the king did not have lunch.

After the waiters left, both the cook and the help cook were a little downcast, and some of them actually complained, and there were many complaints in their mouths.

The two cooks who were over half a century old stared at the depressed crowd and scolded the complainer loudly like a bell, scolding each other bloody.

"Have you ever treated me badly, Your Majesty? Resentment without being rewarded is simply not greedy enough, not as good as a dog!"

The older cook was furious, disappointed with the crowd, angrily scolded them and walked away.

The young man who was being scolded was ashamed, and suddenly realized that his thoughts had gone astray, and he actually got into a dead end.

Working in the Monarch's Mansion, the salary is enough, even more than what they pay.It is an unexpected joy to be rewarded, and it should not be possible.Don't put the cart before the horse, thinking about windfalls, so that you lose your heart.

The accumulation of dissatisfaction can breed resentment.

If things go on like this, won't he become a white-eyed wolf who doesn't know kindness?

The elder's reprimand was like enlightenment, which made everyone wake up and have a clear mind.

If you know a mistake, change it to the right way.

Everyone quickly adjusted their emotions, no longer wanting to compete with each other, and it is fundamental to concentrate on doing a good job on the stove.

Zhi Xuan is the master of the Monarch's Mansion, and everything that happens in the mansion cannot be hidden from his eyes.

When he woke up, had eaten the late meal, and learned about the incident in the kitchen through the mouth of the waiter, he didn't laugh it off, but fell into thinking.

The words of vigilance should not be forgotten.

He used to spend a lot of money to improve everyone's treatment, and gave out rewards every now and then. Although his intentions were very good, he didn't consider the consequences of the matter.

Just as he thought about changing the slave status.

He thinks his methods are gentle, but he doesn't know that in the eyes of the world, it is completely opposite, and it is really shocking.

Fortunately, there is no rush to act, otherwise it will inevitably attract opposition from all walks of life.Even if it is a slave who has benefited, the first reaction may not be to be grateful, but more likely to be at a loss and panic.

The pace of reform should not be taken too far, especially in his era, if he is not careful, he may lose everything, and he cannot bear the consequences alone.

"No wonder." Zhi Xuan sighed.

It is no wonder that Zhao Hao changed the land policy, deleted many loose regulations, made reward conditions several times stricter, and added punishments that had not been done before.

"There are rewards and punishments to balance."

Recalling what Zhao Hao said, Zhi Xuan fully understands that this is the way in line with the times.

When the time is right, it is inevitable to break the shackles of the times.

After thinking about it seriously, Zhi Xuan felt that his idea could not be wrong, but given the current situation, it was still too radical, and forcing it might lead to counterproductive effects.

Throughout history, there are countless examples of reform.

As far as the losers are concerned, the policies are not necessarily all wrong.In the eyes of later generations, many of them are in line with the interests of the people and can be called far-sighted.

Why did it fail?

There are many reasons, one of which is that it is divorced from reality.

The starting point is good, and there is no lack of support from superiors and executors, but there is no way to succeed.In the end, he fell in front of the tide of the times, leaving regrets in vain.

Zhi Xuan faced the same problem.

He has a vision beyond the times, and he also has the determination and perseverance to reform, but he cannot be too radical.

The smooth sailing before had made him overwhelmed, and after some honest talks with Zhao Hao, he discovered his own problems, got down to earth again, and made adjustments to his next plan.Make sure to proceed from reality and not make too many strides, so as to avoid mistakes and unnecessary losses.

"Been taught a lesson."

Zhi Xuan unfolded the bamboo slips and took up a pen to write down his experience.

He can't guarantee that he won't drift in the future, but he can prevent it before it happens, remind himself with the words in his pen, and try to drag himself back to the right path.

Taking a break today, and going to court tomorrow, he suddenly felt a headache when he thought of the mountain of government affairs.

It's not easy to be a wise king, but it's more comfortable to be a foolish king.

However, fantasies can't become reality, he still resigned himself to work, devoted himself to developing national power, leading princes big and small out of the Central Plains, don't try to be lazy.

After engraving the last word, it was getting late.Zhi Xuan yawned and returned to the couch.

The room gradually became quiet, and the night wind flowed into the room through the half-open door, lifting a corner of the bed curtain.

The waiter extinguished several copper lamps, leaving only two in the corner.He retreated to the door, closed the door, and isolated all noises outside, so as not to disturb the king's rest.

Zhi Xuan fell into a deep sleep, falling into a sound dream, causing laugh lines in his sleep.

Zhao Hao, who went south, ran into trouble.

The team walked to an abandoned city, and a tornado protruded from the horizon.

The strong wind came in an instant, and the cattle and horses in the team were frightened and began to lose control.

In the chaos, several carts were swept into the wind, and the horses pulling the carts also failed to escape bad luck.

Suddenly encountered a natural disaster and was trapped by a tornado. Everyone felt timid. Hundreds of people knelt down on the ground in fear and fear, and even forgot to escape despite the tornado.

As a result, he was naturally drawn into the wind, either dead or injured.

The situation got worse and worse. At the very moment, Zhao Hao grabbed the reins, and the horsemen stood up, neighing.

"Blow the horn, beat the drum, follow me!"

The soldier has experienced many battles, and when he heard Zhao Hao's order, his body's memory was faster than his thinking, and he started to act with fear.

Flying sand and walking among stones, the sound of drums and horns was deafening.

The crowd found the backbone, quickly approached Zhao Hao, followed the galloping horse, escaped from the raging tornado, and left the terrifying death behind.

After the natural disaster, everything was a mess.

The retainers counted the team and found that eight carts, more than 20 horses, and nearly a hundred people were missing. The loss was not small.Thanks to Zhao Hao's timely response, more people survived the catastrophe and survived the catastrophe, which is really a blessing.

Not only Zhao Hao's troops were hit by natural disasters, but several nearby cities were not spared.

The strong wind came suddenly, whizzed past, and the sky was dark.The people in the city were unable to react in time and suffered huge losses.After the natural disaster, the rescue was not enough, and the disease was born, which caused the devastation to be everywhere, which was terrible.

Interested people seized the opportunity to spread rumors about natural disasters, causing rumors to spread everywhere.

Zhao Hao has not yet arrived in the southern capital city, and the rumor that "the king is innocent and punished by heaven" spreads wildly and clamors.

Hearing the report from the cavalry, and knowing that the clans in the city were collaborating in private, fueling the rumors, Zhao Hao did not get angry, but just sneered.

There needs to be soil to carry out reforms, and there should be an opportunity to implement land policies.

These clans took the initiative to jump out, and the timing was just right.It is really courageous to take the initiative to send your neck to the knife.

Wouldn't it be a missed opportunity if he didn't kill a human head?

With the sound of the horn, Zhao Hao rode his horse to a high place, raised his whip and pointed at the Nandu City shrouded in rain and fog, and issued the first order to his troops after returning home: "Kill!"
