MTL - Getting Simulated By The Empress Is Not My Intention-Chapter 95 Wei Wang, why are you facing outsiders?
Chapter 95 King Wei, why are you facing outsiders?
Wei Yao calmed down, tried to keep calm, and sat on the throne.
"Go up!"
"Long live the king!" All the ministers bowed, and then someone said: "My lord, the envoy of the Qin Kingdom has arrived in Daliang, and is waiting outside the hall at this moment."
"Quick, let him in!" Wei Yao greeted.
"yes!"
"Tell the Qin envoy to go to the palace!"
Wei Yao looked outside the hall anxiously, only to see a man in a black and red long-sleeved robe walking towards him.
Wei Yao could only feel her heart beating "thumping, pounding", and she wanted to cry out. This is the Zhang Beichen she saw in the simulated time and space, exactly the same!
The man with whom she fell in love and knew each other and had children in many simulations!
"Qin envoy Zhang Beichen, pay homage to King Wei!" Zhang Beichen also looked up at Wei Yao after saluting.
On the throne, Wei Yao was wearing a bright red deep dress inside, and a black wide-sleeved royal robe embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns on the outside, with a phoenix crown on her head, embellished with jade and jewels.
Small face with melon seeds, thin and long eyeliner, like a fox, and the familiar tear mole dotted in the corner of the eye, not only does not violate the slightest bit, but adds a bit of charm.
Zhang Beichen looked down unconsciously. Sure enough, it was exactly the same as in the simulation. Wei Yao's figure was indeed the most prominent. Even the royal robe in deep clothes couldn't hide her proud curves!
"Zhang Beichen!" Hearing his voice, Wei Yao couldn't help running down from the throne.
"Your Majesty!" The etiquette officer was taken aback, and quickly reminded Wei Yao: "Ahem, Your Majesty, pay attention to etiquette."
Only then did Wei Yao restrain himself a little, and came to Zhang Beichen, looked him up close, and saw her eyes filled with joy, and said, "President Qin is indeed a handsome talent, majestic and majestic! This king has heard about it a long time ago. It's love! Give Qin Xiang a seat!"
Wei Yao's words made all the ministers look surprised, the other party came to ask for peace, why are you being so polite to him?
Seats were also granted, and the general Pang Ming and the prime minister's son Jiu were both standing in the hall!
Zhang Beichen didn't want to offend the entire court of Wei State as soon as he came, so he said, "Thank you King Wei, it's good for the foreign ministers to stand."
Wei Yao returned to the throne, and Zhang Beichen said: "King Wei, I, the King of Qin, heard that the State of Wei wanted to attack the State of Qin, so we specially sent foreign ministers as envoys. Qin State does not want to fight again with the State of Wei, so I ask the King of Wei to withdraw his order. "
"Okay!" Wei Yao agreed without thinking.
Zhang Beichen couldn't help but be speechless. He thought that during the simulation, Wei Yao behaved a bit freely. It may be because of the simulation of time and space. Who knows that it is the same in reality!
The officials of the State of Wei were completely speechless at this moment. They were obviously planning to ridicule and ridicule Zhang Beichen, and then seek benefits from the State of Qin. Who knew that Wei Yao would betray them directly!
"My king!" Young Master Jiu stood up and reminded: "I think I need to discuss whether there is a truce."
"No need to discuss!" Wei Yao waved his hand and said, "I feel that since the Qin State is so sincere, our Wei State can't be narrow-minded, stop fighting for the time being, and cultivate life and rest."
The foreheads of all the ministers of Wei State are covered with black lines, sincerity? How can you tell that the other party is sincere! Zhang Beichen obviously didn't come up with any conditions!
People with discerning eyes kept looking at Wei Yao's expression, thinking: "Could it be that King Wei is interested in seeing Zhang Beichen's handsome appearance?"
"It's really possible!"
Fortunately, the officials of Wei State have already gotten used to Wei Yao's style, Pang Ming said: "Then let's not discuss this matter for now. Zhang Beichen, you can go down."
"No!" Wei Yao stopped him, and she said, "The envoy of Qin came to the state of Wei for the first time, how could he be so rude to him? Zhang Beichen, during your mission, you and my ministers of the state of Wei went to court together. so that you can see the demeanor of our country, Wei!"
"Foreign ministers obey the order." Zhang Beichen didn't have any objections.
Wei Yao continued: "Today we will discuss the reform of the administration of officials and the selection of officials again. If you have any opinions, let's finish talking today!"
Zhang Beichen understood that Wei Yao was asking him to help give advice. In the simulated time and space, Wei Yao was even forced to abdicate in order to reform the system of governing officials and selecting officials in Wei State!
Since King Wei said so, the ministers naturally began to express their opinions.
A civil official came out and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the government of Wei does not need to be reformed. Wei is strong because the system is superior to other vassal states. Even if there are some corrupt officials, they are only a very small number. The king and the prime minister will naturally handle it properly."
Young Master Jiu is very satisfied, but Wei Yao scolds directly: "What are you flattering here? I asked you to give your opinion, not to let you come here to waste my time, if you can't speak, then don't speak!"
The courtier was scolded and withdrew angrily.
After scolding someone, Wei Yao suddenly felt that she was being too rude in front of Zhang Beichen, so she quickly said in a gentle tone: "This king is emotional for a while, you guys continue!"
The other courtiers did not dare to speak, so Young Master Jiu said, "My lord, I think it is inappropriate to reform the selection of officials, promote Confucianism and Taoism, and select officials through the imperial examination system. The officials selected in this way are all here for fame and fortune. Going against the way of the saints."
"My ministers of the Wei Kingdom are all descendants of their fathers, and have received a good education since childhood. They are much better than those rural peasants and humble scholars!"
All the ministers said one after another: "What the prime minister said is very true!"
Even General Pang Ming, who had always been at odds with Young Master Jiu, stood by Young Master Jiu this time.
Wei Yao blinked at Zhang Beichen, and then said, "What does Qin Xiang think about this?"
Zhang Beichen understood, and said: "The foreign minister thinks that Wei Xiang's words are inappropriate. How can we ensure that the offspring are wise and talented if the son inherits the father's business? To promote Confucianism and Taoism, let people who have read poetry and books be officials, at least To be able to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, possess a certain amount of talent and learning. It will not be possible to be illiterate, but be able to control one side."
Young Master Jiu snorted softly and said, "Your Majesty Qin's remarks are so ridiculous! I have practiced Confucianism and Taoism too. The Master said: 'Restraining oneself and returning to propriety is benevolence'."
"The master once said that a scholar must be able to restrain his desires and study tirelessly, so that he can become a "benevolent person". If the imperial examination is implemented to select officials, then reading is no longer for improving personal character, but for With fame and fortune, the elected officials will naturally be swayed by interests, and it is difficult to take responsibility."
After the young master Jiu finished speaking, the officials of Wei State praised them one after another. They were all born in noble families, so naturally they don't want poor people to come and steal their jobs.
But Gongzi Jiu used Confucianism and sage's point of view to refute the other party, which was justified.
"Hahahaha!" Zhang Beichen suddenly burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Young Master Jiu asked angrily.
Zhang Beichen said: "According to what you said, self-restraint and rites are benevolence. I also heard that young master Jiu is naturally romantic, and he loves beautiful women, vocal music, and swords. Your desire is stronger than ordinary people. Then why didn't you restrain yourself? How about giving up your wealth, official position, and title to study etiquette and learning, and become a benevolent person?"
Young Master Jiu said angrily, "I have the ability to serve as Minister of Wei, why should I give up?"
Zhang Beichen continued: "The master said: 'Don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to yourself'. Since you are an official for fame and fortune, why do you ask others to restrain themselves and return to courtesy, and are poor?"
Zhang Beichen said to the officials of the Wei Kingdom and Wei Yao: "King Wei, all the ministers of Wei, I think that talented and learned people, regardless of their backgrounds, rich or poor, should be selected as officials. Officials should continue to study and increase their talents. Only in this way can we govern the country better.”
"This is what it means: if you are a good official, you will learn, and if you are good at learning, you will be an official!"
"If you are a good official, you will learn, and if you are good at learning, you will be an official?" Several Wei officials who practiced Confucianism and Taoism were enlightened when they heard this sentence, and exclaimed: "This is simply the words of a sage. Don't violate it!"
Young Master Jiu was about to speak sarcasm when he suddenly saw the phantom of a scholar appearing behind Zhang Beichen.
At the same time, a dragon-shaped phantom with two bodies appeared in the sky, and it lowered the power of luck to baptize Zhang Beichen.
The dharma body behind Zhang Beichen recited: "If you are a good official, you will learn, and if you are good at learning, you will be an official!"
The sound resounded through the hall and could be heard throughout the Wei Kingdom.
"That's our country's totem, Fei Yi! His words actually caused the totem to appear, and the power of luck was sent down to baptize him!" Wei Guo's officials were horrified.
One sentence can move the national destiny, which shows that what Zhang Beichen said just now has reached the level of holy words, which can make Wei Guo strong and prosperous!
"He is obviously the prime minister of Qin, why is that so?"
"I only heard that Zhang Beichen was a disciple of Legalism, but I didn't expect that Confucianism and Taoism are so advanced!"
Young Master Jiu felt jealous and resentful: "I claim to be proficient in various theories, but I have never caused a phenomenon of heaven and earth. This Beichen came to the Wei Kingdom for the first time, and he attracted Fei Yi's appearance, and the truth's limelight was completely robbed!"
Wei Yao also opened her eyes wide, looked at Zhang Beichen, clapped her hands and said, "Well said! What Zhang Beichen said is really good, did you all hear it?"
After being baptized, Zhang Beichen's own cultivation has gone directly from the early stage of the Dharma Body Realm to the late stage. It has to be said that Wei's national destiny is much stronger than Qin's because of its strong national power.
The officials in the hall were still amazed, Zhang Beichen secretly smiled. If it were in the Qin State, the ministers of the Qin State would probably be familiar with it.
A courtier who practiced Confucianism and Taoism stood up and asked Zhang Beichen: "Dare to ask Prime Minister Qin, since Prime Minister Qin said that if you are an official, you will learn, and if you are excellent, you will be an official. And the sage said that self-restraint and ritual are benevolence. Then we wait Confucian students, why do you study? Is it for self-restraint and rites to become a benevolent person, or to be an official?"
Everyone looked at Zhang Beichen. This question looked simple, but it was actually very tricky. He wanted Zhang Beichen to set a direction for Confucian disciples all over the world. How can ordinary people say this? Even great Confucians dare not make a conclusion easily!
If what you say is wrong, you will suffer backlash, and even go astray, and your cultivation base will plummet!
Zhang Beichen didn't panic at all. He had already encountered similar problems in the simulated time and space.
At that time, he wrote the Confucian and Taoist masterpiece "The Great Learning", which set out the method and direction of reading for scholars all over the world.
But to really write "The Great Learning", at least a semi-holy cultivation is required. At this time, Zhang Beichen was still unable to write the full text of "The Great Learning", but it should not be a problem to tell the essence of it.
He then said: "In ancient times, those who wished to manifest virtue in the world first ruled their country; those who wanted to rule their country first ordered their families; those who wanted to order their families first cultivated their bodies; Heart; those who want to rectify their minds should first be sincere in their intentions; those who want to be sincere in their minds should first extend their knowledge, and the extension of knowledge lies in the investigation of things. After investigating things, you can know them. When you know them, you should be sincere. Cultivate the body, and then the family will be in order, the family will be in order, and the country will be governed, and the country will be governed, and then the world will be peaceful."
"So, the purpose of reading is to cultivate one's morality, regulate one's family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world!"
The words Zhang Beichen uttered turned into golden fonts and floated in the air.
The scholar-like dharmakaya behind him recited again: "Cultivate one's body, regulate one's family, govern one's country, and bring peace to the world!"
At this moment, all scholars in Wei State heard this voice.
They were ecstatic: "So this is the purpose of reading!"
"Yes, self-cultivation and being an official governing the country are not contradictory at all!"
"Reading must be used to its full potential, and this is the goal we pursue all our lives!"
"Great sage! The one who said this is really a sage. From now on, this is my ambition!" The Confucian and Taoist disciples all bowed in the direction of Wei Guo, thanking Zhang Beichen for his suggestion.
A large amount of power of luck poured into Zhang Beichen's dharma body, and his realm unexpectedly broke through again, from the early stage of the fourth realm to the late stage of the fourth realm!
"Okay, that's great!" Wei Yao stood up and said with a smile, "As expected of Zhang Beichen, have you all heard it? As officials, you also need to cultivate yourself, manage your family, and govern the country. And to select officials, you also need to choose These talented people."
"The king now announces that from today onwards, schools will be set up all over the country of Wei to teach the knowledge of various schools of thought. In addition, every three years, the imperial examination will be held. It is divided into literary and military examinations, and talents will be selected to enter the court. The hall is an official, governing Wei!"
After Wei Yao finished speaking, Fei Yi hovered behind her, screaming continuously.
When everyone saw this, how could they dare to object, they could only say: "The king is wise."
The promotion of official studies and the selection of officials through imperial examinations will definitely make the country prosperous. If it weren't for Qin's lack of this foundation, Zhang Beichen would want to implement it in Qin.
Young Master Jiu remained silent, Wei Yao looked at him coldly and asked, "Prime Minister, what else do you have in mind?"
Even though Young Master Jiu was unwilling, he could only bow his head and say, "The king is wise."
"Okay!" Wei Yao looked at Zhang Beichen, and once again announced a decision that made all the officials envious and hated: "Zhang Beichen has made great contributions to the governance of our country Wei, and this king now specially appoints him as foreign minister! He is both the prime minister of Qin and the prime minister I am the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Wei!"
It is very common in this era to hang pictures of many countries. But usually several countries form an alliance. For the convenience of command, the minister who leads the alliance will be appointed as the prime minister by the monarchs of multiple countries at the same time.
Now, Qin State and Wei State are hostile relations! To actually promote the prime minister of the enemy country to foreign minister, Wei Yao is also the first in the country of the princes!
Zhang Beichen is so highly valued by the King of Wei, now, not only the young master Jiu, but also Pang Ming's jealousy is distorted! The position of prime minister, an outsider, they have spent a lot of effort to get the current position, but Zhang Beichen got it so easily!
Who is not jealous?
Zhang Beichen looked at those hostile eyes around him, he really didn't expect that Wei Yao actually promoted herself to be the prime minister on the first day she came to Wei State!
If Ying Yiren knew about this, wouldn't she be **** off? This is simply blatant poaching!
Zhang Beichen did not forget the purpose of his visit, which was to seek peace. Since it is "seeking" peace, it can only follow Wei Yao's wishes. He bite the bullet and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, I am very grateful!"
