Chapter 2 Seclusion (Part 1)
Wei Liao frowned slightly, a little disappointed, and bowed with his fists and said, "Sir, you have the ability to know ahead of time. Wei Liao is just about to ask for advice, so please ask me for advice."
"Where do I have the ability to predict the future? It's just history tells me. Your advancement is Li Si, and the timing is Han Fei's death that made the King of Qin lose talents. Now Li Si has seen the King of Qin, and Han Fei is still pampered in Korea and is a young man." Zhou Chong was humble in his heart, knowing that the reason why he was disappointed was because he could not show his great fortune immediately, comforting him: "The things of luck are ethereal and unpredictable. Zhou Chong has no ability to predict the future, and there is no ability to predict the future. However, Zhou Chong knew one reason, and the ruler was divided into two types: one was an indescribable person, and the other was a indescribable person. The indescribable person was not able to say anything, but the grasp of the timing."
Wei Liao praised the high-high and said, "Sir, the wonderful speech can be the ultimate truth!"
Wang Ao looked in admiration and nodded, "Mr. Zhou's words are indeed the most sensible sayings. The king of Jie and Zhou was notorious for thousands of years. In fact, these two lords are extremely smart, but their talents have not been used in the right way. They are used for fun, which is really embarrassing. The two of them cannot speak, but they cannot tell the truth!"
"I'm so conceited. I want to talk about the king of Jie and Zhou. Only people like you can have such ambition and confidence!" Zhou Chong thought to himself, and said, "If you don't talk about it, just talk about the affairs of the current dynasty. The reason why Qin is strong is because Shang Yang's reforms are strong. Everyone knows this, but people know how difficult it was for Shang Yang to lobby Xiao Gong at the beginning? He was almost abandoned by Xiao Gong."
Wei Liao nodded, and Wang Ao continued Zhou Chong's words: "Shang Yang met Duke Xiao with the three skills of the emperor and Bo Jin. He first talked about the emperor's way. Duke Xiao was drowsy and wanted to sleep. Later, he blamed Jing Jian for being useless. The second time, Shang Yang said that Duke Xiao was drowsy and wanted to sleep. He once again blamed Jing Jian for recommending pedantic people. Before the third lobbying, even Jing Jian did not dare to recommend it again. If Shang Yang had not convinced Jing Jian, there would be a third chance. The third time, Shang Yang said that Duke Xiao was drowsy and the king and his ministers talked to each other for three days, but Duke Xiao was not tired. The strength of the Qin Dynasty began from then on."
Shang Yang saw Duke Xiao because he favored his minister Jing Jian. People from later generations, especially Confucians, used this to ridicule Shang Yang for his injustice and seeking to see Duke Xiao in order to be used for the purpose of Qin, but instead followed the path of a despicable person Jing Jian. In fact, this problem can be viewed in reverse. Qin State can even recommend talents like Jing Jian. How can Qin State not be full of talents? Can it not be strong? Li Si's "Letter to Exile" lists so many famous talents, which one of them comes from Qin State? It is not that the talents from Shandong State were lost to Qin State. If he can absorb so many talents, it is unreasonable for Qin State to be not strong! With so many talents lost, it is unreasonable for Shandong State to be immortal!
"You are really knowledgeable and powerful. As soon as you come, you tell me what Shang Yang lobbied Qin Xiaogong." Zhou Chong thought in his heart, nodded and concluded: "The difficulty of saying anything is not the difficulty of saying something, nor is it the difficulty of my argument that I can understand my intention, nor is it the difficulty of my daring to make mistakes and complete it. The difficulty of saying something is in the heart of knowing what I say, I can say it."
The master and apprentice cheered together, saying, "Anything difficult to say is: I can say it to you in the heart of knowing what you say. It is a wonderful saying to me!" The admiration of the two people was seen in the color, which led Zhou Chong as a confidant.
Zhou Chong did not dare to plunder the beauty of others, and said, "This statement is not Zhou Chong's words, but a famous quote from Han Fei's "Speaking Difficult". Zhou Chong just picked it up."
Wei Liao nodded and said, "Han Fei is a man. Liaozi has heard of him. He first learned from Xunzi. After he finished his studies, he returned to Korea to give advice to King Han. Unfortunately, his arguments were too high and King Han could not listen. Han Fei was angry and kept his door and wrote books to make a statement. Looking at his books, it was actually a high-level argument, and it was hard to match in the world. If he could get it, it would be a pleasure to comfort his life."
"Han Fei and you are of the same age, so it may be difficult for you to see him. You saw King Qin because of Han Fei's death. He exchanged his life for your ups and downs. Unless history is rewritten." Zhou Chong felt sorry for Wei Liao in his heart.
Wang Ao sighed with sarcastic remarks: "If you don't know talent, you will be lucky!"
"If you don't get the talent, you will cry so many heroes! In order to find a monarch who knows you, you will not care about your status as a master and go west to Qin and ask for use with the King of Qin." Zhou Chong sighed in his heart and said, "If you have the opportunity to lobby for the master, you must have a chance to lobby!"
Wei Liao clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your wake up. Mr. Zhou, let's leave and get together again in the future."
Zhou Chong returned the liu and asked, "Where is the sir?"
Wei Liao pondered for a moment and said, "It's not the time to ask for the King of Qin. Liaozi wants to visit it first and wait for another opportunity."
"Sir, I love mountains and rivers and express my love to them. Zhou Chong shouldn't have said too much." Zhou Chong changed his tone and said, "However, the sir, wandering among mountains and rivers is not about not asking about the world, but about passing the time and waiting for the opportunity. The famous mountains are right in front of me, why should I go far away?"
Wang Ao asked: "What do you mean by visiting Huashan?"
Wei Liao reminded Wang Ao, saying, "Mr. I mean we want us to live in Mount Hua."
"Wang Ao doesn't understand Mr.'s intention, so please don't laugh." Wang Ao suddenly realized.
Zhou Chong returned the favor and said, "Mr. Wang is so serious. The scenery of Mount Hua is beautiful, and it is a place to cultivate one's own character. Besides, this place is in Qin. Once there is something wrong with Qin, wouldn't it be close to you?"
"It makes sense, it makes sense." Wei Liao nodded and said, "It is a clever way to live on Mount Hua and look at the changes in the world."
Zhou Chong reminded Wei Liao and said, "Zhou Chong dared to ask, sir, what sir is learning is the commander of the army or the text?"
Although Wei Liao did not understand why Zhou Chong asked this, he still replied: "Liuzi has been practicing military service with his ancestors for decades, and although he has no chance of Sun Wu, he still has some knowledge of strategy. If Liaozi's plan is implemented, it is only a matter of time before Qin can merge with the world."
"I know you are the chief soldiers, this is not a subtext." Zhou Chong continued to ask: "Has the sir learned been written into a book?"
Wei Liao shook his head and said, "What Liaozi has learned is in his heart."
Zhou Chong's heart was thrilled, and he had an idea, and immediately seduced him: "Why not make a book by sir?"
"Water has no constant shape, soldiers have no constant momentum, and the stance of the military strategy is only used in the wonderful use, and there is no need to be a scroll." Wei Liaozi is worthy of being a military genius, and he said something similar to Yue Fei in later generations as soon as he said. Yue Fei believed that using troops "to fight before battle, and the beauty of using lies lies in one mind", and the two are so similar.
Zhou Chong disagreed with his opinion and said, "Sir, the military is a good man, and the military is appropriate, but Zhou Chong thought it was not possible."
