When Pei Ju said this, it was really shocking, which shocked Yang Zhao on the spot. In fact, what Pei Ju said was right. Yang Jian was indeed a wise and wise ruler at the beginning of the founding of the country. However, he has been accelerating for twenty years and is getting older this year and is not energetic. In recent years, he has indeed been unsatisfied in his governance. In order to consolidate his power, Yang Su ignored the lives and death of the people and flattered the emperor, which made the people quite resentful.

For example, in the 13th year of Kaihuang, Yang Jian built Renshou Palace in the north of Qizhou, and ordered Yang Su to supervise the construction. Yang Su asked the Laizhou Governor Yuwen Kai to be a master craftsman, and the documentary room was granted Deyi the civil engineering supervisor. In order to build the palace as soon as possible to please Yang Jian, he "set up palaces in Yishan Valley, and raised the terraces and covered them with pavilions and pavilions." He also "the service was urgent and urgent. Ding Fu died many times, and he was exhausted and overwhelmed by the servants, and pushed him to fill pits and troughs, covering them with earth and stones, so he built it into flat ground. Ten thousand dead people were dead." In the 15th year of Kaihuang, Renshou Palace was built, and Yang Jian was preparing to visit him. It was hot and "the servants were second to the Tao, and Yang Su burned them all to remove them." His methods were really sensational and criticized.

After the Shangshu Zuo Pushe Gao Bing learned about this, he reported it to Yang Jian truthfully. Yang Su was extremely frightened and worried about being blamed, so he was helpless. Feng Deyi, the recorder around him, came up with an idea to suggest that Yang Su plead with Empress Dugu. Yang Su was so happy that he followed the plan. The next day, when the emperor arrived at Renshou Palace, he saw that the palace was so luxurious. He was furious and said, "Yang Su devoted his people's efforts to leave the palace and make a grudge for the world for me." He summoned Yang Su to ask. But Yang Su did his job as Dugu in advance, and Empress Dugu was next to Yang Su. As a result, Yang Jian listened to the pillow style, not only did not punish Yang Su, but instead rewarded him, and trusted him more from then on. As for Gao Bing, he was gradually alienated.

Later, due to the dispute over the throne between the deposed crown prince Yang Yong and the King of Jin Yang Guang, Yang Jian directly demoted Gao Yan to a commoner. Yang Su thus became a unique minister. Without control, he promoted private placements in various important positions in the court, almost covering the sky with one hand. Just imagine, if Yang Jian had not allowed himself that day, why would Yang Su's ambition continue to expand and finally evolve into the worst result today?

However, the truth is the truth, and sometimes some things are well known to everyone, but no one can say them. Pei Ju and Yang Zhao met today. Although they are both polite, they are far from being able to be honest. If they are both ordinary people, then when they are drunk, it doesn’t matter if they criticize a few words of national affairs. But now one is a noble family and a noble family, and the other is a dragon son and a grandson of the prince, the king of Henan, who is definitely a good leader. Pei Ju has been ups and downs in his official career for many years, but he shouldn’t be so irresponsible.

In the blink of an eye, the little prince had already turned many thoughts in his mind and imagined seventeen or eighteen possibilities. His wrist, which was hanging in the air due to shock, slowly lowered his smile on his face and said, "The so-called son does not hear of his father's mistakes, let alone being the son today, is my grandfather. After hearing this words from Lord Pei, I should have left with my ears."

Pei Ju smiled and said, "But, Your Highness did not get up and leave at this moment, but continued to sit upright and talk to the lower official. This shows that Your Highness also knows that the lower official is right, right?"

Yang Zhao smiled slightly, but did not answer this sentence, but turned around and said, "Mr. Pei seems to be quite dissatisfied with the current court. However, no one can do anything without a sage? In the past few years, my emperor's grandfather has indeed caused many people to be wronged by Yang Su. But now Yang Su has failed. In the near future, the emperor's grandfather will eradicate his followers one by one, rectify the chaos, and revitalize the court's discipline and laws. This is enough to make up for the merits."

Pei Ju shook his head and said, "In the past twenty years since the founding of the Great Sui Dynasty, although it has been quite impressive in administration, it has never been difficult to get rid of the ancient times when it comes to employment. It is just that it is just because of the emperor's love and dislike. As long as you are seen by Your Majesty, even if you have a huge mistake, you can be spared from the crime. But if Your Majesty doesn't see it, even if you are as wise as a high servant, you will inevitably be exiled to the death. In this way, if Yang Su goes to today, Li Su and Liu Su come up tomorrow, then what's the difference?"

Yang Zhao sighed and said, "The emperor's grandfather is already tall, but this is inevitable. But in the future, my father ascended the throne and I believe things can improve."

Pei Ju also sighed: "Your Highness still doesn't understand. This is not a problem of who is the emperor at all, but a problem of the system. Throughout history, countless dynasties have risen and destroyed one after another because of the small advantages and disadvantages of governing the country by people. Even if there are saints and wise emperors in power, they will not harm the favors for the time being, but it is difficult to ensure that the future generations of emperors are wise and wise. Therefore, if this continues, the temple will inevitably be in power in the future. And when it reaches this point, the country will be no longer a country, and it will not be far from destruction."

After all, Pei Ju's words are a battle between "rule of man" and "rule of law". Even in the modern society of later generations, "rule of man" is still greater than "rule of law". Although people like Yang Su have gradually become rare in the center, they are more rampant in the local area. Although they have been repeatedly attacked, they have not stopped. Therefore, although Pei Ju's words are a bit false, Yang Zhao also has a similar feeling. He nodded and said, "If the court established a selection mechanism, first pay attention to virtue when appointing talents, and stipulated that those with talents but not morals will not be allowed to take office, what do Lord Pei think?"

Pei Ju sneered: "What Your Highness said is just a cliché of Confucianism. Since Emperor Wu of Han respected Confucianism alone, the disputes in political power and the rise and fall of the Wei and Jin Dynasties are actually the victory or defeat of the Confucian family and non-Confucian poor families. The Confucian family follows the way of the ruler and the ministers, father and son. Their learning is the Confucian study, and their actions must conform to the moral standards of Confucianism, the so-called filial piety, friendship, etiquette and law. The moral method of self-cultivation and family governance is also applicable to governing the country and pacifying the world. The most famous religion is the ruler and ministers, and only filial piety can end up with the relatives.

Yu Jun. When this view was adopted for the selection of talents, it became a system of recruitment. Whether it could be admitted to the officialdom depends entirely on the recommendation of the noble family based on the standards of famous religions, becoming a game between the noble family, completely excluding non-Confucian and poor families. When this selection of Fang Wu was exerted to the extreme, it became the nine-rank Zhongzheng system of the Jin Dynasty. The barriers between the high and the poor families became more and more intense, and contradictions arose. Finally, it evolved into a situation where the north and the south were divided over the past three hundred years and the world was in chaos. It can be seen that governing the country with Confucianism is simply to seek fish from a tree."

Yang Zhao shook his head and said, "What Master Pei said is a bit extreme. When Qin relied on the help of the Legalists to unify the six kingdoms, but because of the severe punishment and law, the people could not bear it, and eventually died in two lifetimes. After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Huang-Lao's art was used to govern inaction and make the country rest and recuperate. However, in the end, it had to wait until Emperor Wu of Han respected Confucianism alone before he could launch troops to eliminate the Xiongnu in the northern border. It can be seen that Confucianism occupies the orthodox position, and all schools of thought cannot be reached. Although there are many disadvantages, there are always various indelible achievements."
