100 Get it right
The so-called bustling, profits come and go. It also says that people die for money and birds die for food.
As Your Majesty thought: People always have something to ask for, either seeking fame and profit, or seeking fame and reputation. And so on, there are many things to do.
So, what does King Ji want?
If you seek the Han Dynasty, you will never be able to give it. If you seek to crack the soil and increase the seal, there is nothing wrong with it. If you seek to have a beautiful woman like jade, the more you will be better.
But people's hearts are separated from their belly.
What is the true heart of King Ji? It is unknown. Now he is a king and has a high position as a minister. He will be valued later. He must be aware of it.
Therefore, Your Majesty uses "adding nine tins" to test each other. If King Ji is taken, it will be a taboo for the offenders. As Empress Dowager Dou said, there will be many restrictions in the future. The crimes will be fabricated and there will be no need to be framed. At the least, the county will be cut off, and at the worst, the country will be eliminated. Death will be killed and the tribe will be destroyed.
However, if King Ji refuses to accept his refusal and abides by his ministers' integrity, Your Majesty will also be vigilant. Because in Your Majesty's view, people always have their own desires. If they have desires, they will ask for something. No one is exceptional. King Ji is a worldly hero and will never be exceptional. If you act as false and false, you need to be vigilant.
In a word, receiving the nine tins will show your ambition; rejecting but not receiving, hiding your ambition. Therefore, receiving and not receiving will not make Your Majesty feel at ease. If Your Majesty is not at ease, how can King Ji be at ease?
So, let's settle for the second best.
King Ji asked for "give marriage" and "give birth".
It not only shows that it has no ambitions for the throne, but also shows that it has "desire".
Even though Your Majesty is so distressed, he still gives you peace of mind.
It is also natural that King Ji deserves reward for his merits, and he deserves it.
In this way, everyone is happy and the king and his subjects are bound to be separated.
To sum up again, "If you have no ambition and want something", is the way for King Ji to settle down and establish his life. Without desires and seekings, he will die. If you have no desires and wantings, you will die.
Such a complex and difficult-to-find confrontation of righteousness, a slight difference, and an accurate calculation of life and death. How could Liu Bei, who had been in a high position since childhood, enjoyed his grudges and revenge? As the saying goes, there are shortcomings in the ruler, and there are strengths in the inch.
After thinking about it, King Ji got up and bowed: "It is a blessing to be prepared for you to support each other with all your strength."
The plotters in the hall also looked solemnly and replied: "It is also a blessing for us to meet the wise master."
The king and his subjects know each other, no matter how you know each other.
"Nine Tin" has been recorded in the Zhou Dynasty. "Gongyang Zhuan·Zhong Gong's First Year": "What is the tin? What is the gift? What is the fate? I will be given." Later, there was a commentary: "The princes have virtue, and they should benefit their land. Only a hundred miles later, and then they will be given nine gifts." During the Zhou Dynasty, the emperor would grant the princes who had great achievements in many aspects such as moral integrity, civil and military affairs, and nine special objects, namely "Nine Tin".
During the Zhou Dynasty, nine gifts were added, but it was not related to the throne. It was not until Wang Mang that "the nine gifts" became ulterior motives. Wang Mang wanted to usurp the Han Dynasty, but people at that time thought that the Han Dynasty was the decree of heaven. Wang Mang was originally a Han minister. If he rashly usurped the throne, his reputation would be unjust, and if he was not upright, his country would be unjust. If the country was not upright, his position would be unstable. In order to be justified, Wang Mang then concocted nine gifts as a prerequisite for becoming emperor. After adding nine gifts, Wang Mang was "like the system of the emperor" and eventually usurped the Han Dynasty.
"Add Nine Tin" was the highest praise for the ministers. For example, Wang Mang, Cao Cao, Sima Zhao and others all added Nine Tin and were ranked as the most important ministers. However, since Wang Mang, many people who "Add Nine Tin" or their sons have usurped the throne.
The culprit of Wang Mang was later promoted by Meng De and his son. The nine gifts were added before the abdication, which became the standard for forcing the last emperor to "abdicate and usurp the throne". Later, there were Sima Yan of the Western Jin Dynasty, Liu Yu of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Xiao Daocheng, Xiao Yan, Chen Baxian, Yang Jian of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Li Yuan of the Sui and Tang Dynasties... It was exactly the same, and it was similar. This move also became the basic model for later powerful ministers to become emperors.
To this day, although Meng De may not have another chance, Wang Mang has set a precedent.
Your Majesty added "Nine Tin" to King Ji. This is why he used the story of Wang Mang to try it out.
King Ji, was he aided the Han Dynasty or usurped the Han Dynasty?
In the words of later generations, this is a pit.
Even though I know it is a fire pit, how can I jump off?
Of course, it is not acceptable to accept it. Moreover, the king and minister of Ji State are well aware of Your Majesty's imperial merchants' nature and are good at exchanging interests. So they settled down and sought the second best, first seeking beautiful men and then taking fiefs. How can they not be beautiful when both people and land are in harmony?
After receiving the 600-mile Ji King's rush to report. After glanced over, Cao Jie let out a sigh of relief and calmed his mind. After looking closely, he couldn't help but sweat.
I finished it all in one go and read it all. Even on the cold night of spring, I was sweating heavily, like water.
I thought about the past and after, and finally let it be a long sigh. In the world, the only one who dares to bargain with His Majesty is the only one who dares to bargain with His Majesty.
Then I thought about it again. King Ji’s actions should be deeply appreciated. The true intentions of King Ji are vividly remembered between the lines: I am not willing to let Your Majesty go thousands of miles away. However, the more you have a country, the more you have to be more good.
In this way, although you do not take away the flesh in your Majesty's heart, you still need to cut the flesh and let blood.
King Ji is so good!
I dare to ask Your Majesty if you want to "add nine tins" again?
"Hiss--" After seeing the King of Ji's expression, His Majesty took a breath of cold air. The pain was beyond words.
"King Ji... three rejects nine tins, it's really a pure minister." His Majesty shivered and sighed. It hurts really...
In Wanjin Hall, Zhang Rang and the ten regular attendants whispered to each other. King Ji refused to be nine tins in three times, which was not right to respond to Your Majesty's wishes. Why did he peek at Your Majesty's expression? He was so ferocious?
"As for what King Ji asked, what did the Secretary of the Shangshu think?" After a breath, Your Majesty asked from the bottom of his superiors.
How dare Cao Jie take it on his body: "Your Majesty has three pluses, and King Ji three rejects. The so-called 'thing cannot be surpassed three'. If you add nine tins, it has never happened in history. Why not start a court discussion, accept the words of all officials, and make a conclusion."
"This is very good." Your Majesty nodded: "Tomorrow, the morning court will be issued to the public. Let's see the intentions of all officials."
"Old slave accepts the order." Cao Jie bowed.
Linxiang, Jiwang Palace.
The copy of the three-rejection letter was quickly passed back to the country.
After the ministers watched it one by one, the Princess asked from behind the curtain: "What do you think?"
All the six major plotters are not here. Jidu Yin Nai's think tank: "Report to the princess and take two counties again, it's just around the corner."
The princess then asked, "There are twists and turns."
"I thought it would be without any danger." Lou Gui had figured out everything: "Don't accept the nine tins, but have something else to ask for. It is the way of the minister. The so-called "a gentleman loves money and takes it with it in a way" is just like my master."
Lou Sang ordered Le Yin to get up and ask, "Why don't you say it clearly?"
But the princess already understood: "If you have merit, you should take it. However, what should you take and how much should you take is the way to be a minister."
"The princess sees it clearly." Lou Gui replied.
After the princess said this, the ministers woke up one after another. Le Yin said, "What Your Majesty gives is not what our Lord asks for, so he will not accept it. Our Lord has made contributions to the country and deserves rewards, so he asks for it."
"The only one who knows my lord is the four ministers." Lou Gui surrendered.
Luoyang court.
Your Majesty ordered the Huangmen to order Zuo Feng to recite the Ji King's report.
All the officials whispered to each other, and there was no objection.
If you think about it carefully, King Ji was a hero in the world, open-minded and open-minded. He thought, thought, and acted, and his words, and his words were the same. Why should he cover up? He had only added three counties before, and everyone thought he was very kind. His Majesty wanted to add nine tins, but refused but refused. He only wanted to get two more counties, which was due to his true nature.
In other words, it would be reasonable if King Ji did not accept the nine tins and added two counties.
After a night of soothing, the pain of Your Majesty has slightly decreased.
