[Even if the leader of a clique is originally motivated by serving the country and the people and is relatively upright, he cannot guarantee that the people who join him are not opportunists, nor can he guarantee that his group will not become corrupt, such as Wang Anshi's New Party. 】

The barrage flew out:

"Wang Anshi's personal character is indeed impeccable, but his judgment of employing people is indeed not good. Let me say one: the treacherous minister Cai Jing."

"Reply-Wang Anshi probably didn't expect that a newcomer he promoted would become a powerful and treacherous minister who would harm the Song Dynasty in the future."

"Reply-There is also Lu Huiqing, the second-in-command of the reform. This guy is a typical opportunist. After he came to power, he betrayed and framed Wang Anshi."

"Reply-Wang Anshi's other deputy Zhang Dun is also a narrow-minded and sinister villain."

"Reply-To be honest, the ultimate failure of the reform has a lot to do with Wang Anshi's poor judgment of people and improper use of people. Many policies were not implemented properly."

"..."

The plane of Emperor Shenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Wang Anshi looked at the many discussions in the barrage and was shocked.

He never expected that Lü Huiqing and Zhang Dun, the two assistants he relied on, were actually a speculator and a sinister villain.

There was also Cai Jing, who was also a new member of the Reform Party that he valued and cultivated.

He even married his daughter to Cai Jing's younger brother Cai Bian.

And this man later became a traitor who brought disaster to the Song Dynasty!

All these things showed that he did not know how to judge people and used them improperly.

"Am I too anxious?"

Wang Anshi began to reflect in his heart.

He felt that because there were too many people who opposed the reform, he had few people to use, so he acted too hastily.

"Lü Huiqing, Zhang Dun, Cai Jing..."

Wang Anshi looked at these names and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

These people, of course, could not be used anymore!

……

[The essence of most cliques is actually interest-based. ]

[Therefore, the most needed qualities to gain the support of some bureaucrats and become the "067" leader of a small group are prestige and the ability to represent the interests of the group. ]

[If you can climb to this position, you have actually merged with the clique and become one of the most authoritative people in the group. ]

[As long as the previous leader dies or is removed from office, you, who are favored by the emperor and have a deep clique background, will be the most suitable candidate for the new leader. ]

[After becoming the leader of a clique, your task becomes to expand the scope of the clique's power and weaken the restraining force. ]

[And the best measures are to corrupt the supervision system, the imperial examination system, and the reward and punishment system for officials. ]

……

Many emperors of all dynasties were shocked, and a solemn look flashed in their eyes.

These three systems are all related to the foundation of the court.

Now, people in later generations are actually teaching people how toHow to corrupt these three systems.

This is not a good thing.

"Treason! Hateful!"

Many emperors were extremely angry.

But they were the rulers of a country after all, not ordinary people.

Soon, they controlled their emotions and looked at the giant screen in the sky.

They wanted to see how people in the future would teach others to corrupt these three systems?

[First, the emperor's eyes and ears must be blocked and public opinion in the court must be controlled. ]

[The most important thing is to gain the support of the supervisory agencies. Although they have great power, their rank and status are relatively low, and they lack a sense of security in the officialdom. ]

[Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. Supervisory officials are often beaten in court, imprisoned, or even executed for angering the emperor due to the normal performance of their duties. 】

【In such a harsh environment with uncertain fortunes and disasters, it is difficult for them to gain a foothold on their own, so it is reasonable for them to seek support from the party. 】

【For example, the Ming Dynasty set up Kedao officials to strictly monitor the actions of central and local officials in order to prevent officials from forming factions for personal gain and to ensure the imperial power. 】

【But in the middle and late stages, Kedao officials lost control and ignored right and wrong, and were involved in the vortex of party struggles in different forms, which made the party and government of the Ming Dynasty more intense and cruel than the previous dynasties. 】

……

The Hongwu plane of the Ming Dynasty.

A flash of anger flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.

Kedao officials are composed of "Keguan" and "Daoguan".

The so-called "Keguan" refers to the six ministries of Li, Hu, Li, Bing, Xing, and Gong.

And the "Dao" officials are the supervisory censors of the Duchayuan.

This was an official position he established shortly after he established the Ming Dynasty and unified the country, hoping to use it to monitor officials all over the world.

Unexpectedly, it became a tool for party struggles in the future.

This naturally made him extremely angry.

Of course.

In addition to anger, he was thinking more about the problem of the Kedao official system at this moment.

For example, if "low-level officials exercise supervisory power over high-level officials", will it really make Kedao officials lack a sense of security and turn to cliques?

For example, is it necessary to have a new supervisory agency to monitor Kedao officials?

In short, he wanted to improve this system.

After all, the emperor lives in the palace and needs a supervisory agency to monitor geniuses. If the supervisory agency is corrupted, the emperor will be easily deceived.

……

【Then, we need to expand the power of cliques and make the official selection system a mess. 】

【You send the backbone of your clique to preside over the imperial examination, and combine it with personal dependence. 】

【If a scholar wants to pass the imperial examination, he must join his own clique. 】

【If a scholar wants to betray the clique he "belongs to", then he will be full of pain and suffering in his spirit and career. 】

【Li Shangyin of the Tang Dynasty is an example. With the strong support of Linghu Chu and his son, Li Shangyin successfully passed the unfair imperial examination. 】

【But he has his own’s ambition, which was regarded as betrayal by the party members, so he was ostracized and suffered from hardship and frustration throughout his life. 】

Barrage flew out:

“How should I put it? Linghu Chu was very kind to Li Shangyin. He not only accepted him as a disciple and taught him the study of modern articles and memorials, but also gave him money to support his poor family and finally helped him pass the imperial examination. However, after Linghu Chu’s death, he immediately defected to Wang Maoyuan, the governor of Jingyuan, and married the prince’s daughter. The two sides were mortal enemies.”

“Reply——Yes, Linghu Chu was a member of the Niu Party, and Wang Maoyuan was a member of the Li Party. The Niu and Li parties had been fighting fiercely for forty years. The fierceness of the conflict can be imagined. He did this,

It would be a miracle if the Niu Party would let him go."

"Reply--It can only be said that his political sensitivity is too poor. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty at that time said that it was easy to go to Hebei to join the bandits, but it was difficult to join the party in the court. This shows how fierce the Niu-Li Party struggle was. Moreover, the people of the Li Party might not like his behavior of playing both sides."

"Reply--It can only be said that it is not unfair for him to be excluded."

"Reply--Li Shangyin is an outstanding poet, but not a qualified politician."

"..."

Looking at the huge screen in the sky.

Many ancient people in the past dynasties did not have much sympathy for Li Shangyin, but felt that he had brought it upon himself.

In the ancient Chinese moral concepts, Li Shangyin's behavior was definitely "ingratitude" and "immorality", and was to be despised by others.

......

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin's face was a little gloomy.

A 40-year-long party struggle will undoubtedly bring serious harm to the country.

"Incompetent waste!"

Li Shimin snorted in his heart.

The dignified leader of the Tang Dynasty not only failed to end the party struggle, but also said "It's difficult to get rid of the party in the court". He is really incompetent.

...

The Tang Dynasty Wenzong plane.

The third year of Kaicheng.

Li Shangyin's face was full of shock.

He had just participated in the funeral of Linghu Chu and received an invitation from Wang Maoyuan, the governor of Jingyuan, to go to Jingzhou as a staff member.

Originally, Li Shangyin had decided to go.

But now, Li Shangyin became hesitant.

...

[Finally, it is the reward and punishment system for officials. ]

[Each dynasty's entrepreneurs will learn from the lessons of the previous dynasty and formulate a series of reasonable official assessment and reward and punishment systems, but it is of no use at all. 】

[Ultimately, the assessment and reward and punishment of officials will surely develop into the emperor, powerful officials and other rulers abusing their power, the officials in the assessment and selection departments greedily making money, and the hidden rules of the officialdom will prevail. 】

[By corrupting the national system, you have successfully established a party member filtering system from official selection to assessment and then to supervision. 】

[From now on, the officials selected and promoted will be your people. 】

[They "prefer to go to the court and not to disappoint their cliques", they are paid by the state, but in fact they are controlled by you, who is called the leader of the clique. 】

……

See here.

Many dynastiesThe emperor's face was extremely solemn.

Although people in later generations did not talk about too many specific methods, this idea was too clear.

If this set of operations is really carried out smoothly, this clique is equivalent to basically controlling the court.

……

[The country has been forced downhill by you. ] (To read the violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

[But fortunately, some politically passionate old ministers chose to stand up and call for the elimination of bad policies and the implementation of new policies, and put forward some very legitimate reform measures. ]

[If this emperor is corrupt, then you can easily suppress these people. ]

[But if this emperor is not corrupt and understands the importance of eliminating bad policies. ]

[Then even if the party's rights and interests are infringed, you cannot refute these measures from the front. ]

[If you can't solve the problem, solve the person who raised the problem. 】[]

[You can use conspiracy to attack the reformists, let your subordinates create public opinion, and attack the new policy under the charge of cliques. 】

[In the era of monarchy, cliques were regarded as poisonous snakes and beasts. No matter who it was, once it was determined that they formed a clique for personal gain, it would be a heinous crime. 】

[What you have to do is to prove in front of the emperor that he has formed a clique and is a threat to the imperial power. 】

[You bribed and instigated reformist officials, supported your subordinates to forge letters, and fabricated that the reformists wanted to depose the emperor and seize power. 】

[And the emperor who grew up in the deep palace was most wary of ministers abusing their power and forming cliques. 】

Many ancient people in all dynasties were stunned.

This is really unscrupulous.

"What a treacherous minister! Too shameless!"

In many dynasties, many ancient people spoke up and rebuked.

At the same time.

Many ancient treacherous officials were enlightened. These words really touched their hearts and provided theoretical guidance for them to fight against political enemies.

……

[The leader of the reformists was forced into a desperate situation and defended himself: "Gentlemen are friends with those who share the same principles." This is a society of upright gentlemen, and it is to eliminate bad policies for the country and the people. It is a "party of gentlemen, not a party of villains who abuse power and disrupt politics." 】

The barrage flew out:

"Ouyang Xiu: Just report my ID number."

"Ouyang Xiu's "On Factions" really pitted Fan Zhongyan."

"Reply-Yes, the emperor doesn't care whether you are a good party or a bad party. Anyone who forms a party has a problem..0"

"..."

The plane of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty.

Ouyang Xiu was shocked: "Am I wrong?"

He and Fan Zhongyan were close friends and shared the same ideals. He was a supporter of Fan Zhongyan's reform and repeatedly wrote to the court to defend Fan Zhongyan's reform.

This "On Factions" was a memorial he submitted to Song Renzong, aiming to refute the conservatives' attack on the reform.

But now it seems that what he did was not a good thing.

……

[Looking at the face of the reformist leader full of justice, you turned to the emperorSaid:

"Your Majesty, all kinds of parties throughout history have their political views and moral character, but there is no essential difference in the issue of party unity and fighting against dissidents.

He said that a gentleman is a friend of the same path, and I say that a gentleman has no friends, only villains have them.

We, the civil and military officials, should get rid of the habit of forming friends and being treacherous, be open and honest, not seek personal favors, and share the likes and dislikes with Your Majesty."】

The barrage flew out:

"Good fellow, is this what a treacherous official like you should say?"

| =|

"Very good, the memorial has been written for me. I have memorized the whole text and am waiting to travel back to fight for political power. (dog head)"

"Speaking the truth, this is what the emperor likes to hear."

"Excuse me, where did the last paragraph come from?"

"Reply - the first half comes from Yongzheng's "Imperial On Factions."

"..."

Although they know that the words on the giant screen were taught by later generations to treacherous ministers to deceive the emperor, many emperors of all dynasties still think that they like to hear these words.

In their eyes, whether it is the party of gentlemen or the party of villains, they are all forming cliques for personal gain.

……

[The emperor agrees with what you said very much and praises you as a role model for ministers, so he trusts you more and issues an edict to banish the reformists from the court. ]

[Now, you have become a rare king of factions. 】

【The last step is to indulge in pleasure, embezzle and abuse power, withhold military pay, and exploit the people. 】

【You are second only to the emperor, and above all people. All the honest officials in the country are either dead or demoted. All corrupt officials are your eyes and ears. 】

【You can accept huge bribes from officials from all over the country in the name of "birthday gift" every year, and you can annex a large amount of land and build villas outside the capital. 】

【Under your example and support, your subordinates will no longer worry and make money. 】

【All the money will be divided among the bureaucratic group according to their status and power. 】

【Not only will the country not get a fraction, but even the treasury will be eaten away by termites. 】

The barrage flew out:

"Hey, a trick to destroy a country every day!"

"At this point, you are the uncrowned emperor of the dynasty."

"..."

See here.

In many dynasties, many emperors looked gloomy.

"Traitorous ministers! They deserve death!"

Many emperors couldn't help but curse.

If it really comes to this, I'm afraid the country is not far from destruction.

...

[At this point, your clique career has reached its peak, and there must be a biography of you in the history books. 】

[Although this clique will not last long, your bad reputation will surely be passed down through the ages. 】

【When you died, many upright people shouted: "Good death!"】

【They agreed to dig up your grave together, but they didn't find any bones. They only found a stone tablet on 2.2, which read:

"I am from the Han family,The world has passed down the innocence, but I like extravagance by nature. I think I will never be able to gain a good reputation, so I might as well enjoy myself. ”】

……

The plane of Emperor Zhezong of the Song Dynasty.

Sima Guang looked at the last sentence of the video and was furious.

“How can such treacherous ministers be ranked with me?”

Sima Guang’s eyes were full of anger.

“I am from a humble family, and the world has passed down the innocence”, he said.

And “I think I will never be able to gain a good reputation, so I might as well enjoy myself”, it was said by the notorious treacherous prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, Yang Guozhong.

People in later generations put these two sentences together, isn’t it the same as putting him on the same level with the treacherous minister Yang Guozhong?

Therefore, Sima Guang felt that he was greatly insulted.

|= |

……

On the giant screen in the sky.

The video is refreshed.

A new video appears.

[How powerful are the three unsolvable plots of the rabbit? Everything is developing in the direction set by the rabbit! ]

……

Immediately after this line of headlines.

There is a short preface.

……

[Why can the rabbit repeatedly gain the upper hand in the competition with the Eagle Sauce Country? 】

【Because the rabbit is playing an "open conspiracy". 】

【With five thousand years of civilization, the rabbit has already played out all the conspiracies and tricks. 】

【Open conspiracy is the highest level of all strategies. 】

【The Eagle Sauce Country knows what the rabbit is going to do, but can only watch. 】

【Everything develops in the direction preset by the rabbit. 】

【This is the essence of open conspiracy. 】

【Today, the UP host will talk to you about the three unsolvable open conspiracies of the rabbit. 】

……

After watching the preface of the video.

Many ancient people in all dynasties are very interested in the content of the following video.

They all know the meaning of open conspiracy.

It refers to a strategy that is open and aboveboard and directly discloses the purpose, but the enemy has to "fall into the trap".

They are now very curious about what the three open conspiracies of the Dragon Country in the future are. .
