How to listen well and refuse to give advice?

After Jin Wengong succeeded to the throne in the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Jin became very angry, which made the country strong rapidly and became a big country in the Spring and Autumn Period, and Jin Wengong also became a hegemon. But then, Duke Xiang of Jin and Jin Linggong failed to cheer up and only cared about their own enjoyment, and the hegemony of the State of Jin was unconsciously replaced by Chu Zhuangwang.

Shortly after Jin Linggong ascended the throne, he built a large number of buildings and palaces for himself and his concubines to have fun. That year, he racked his brains to build a 9-story balcony. It is conceivable that such a grand and complex project will consume much manpower and material resources! Desperate Gong Ling requisitioned countless people and spent huge amounts of public funds, which took several years to complete. All over the country, there are complaints, but they dare to speak out, because this time Jin Linggong clearly announced: "Anyone who dares to criticize and discourage the construction of a nine-story platform will be put to death!"

One day, the doctor Xun asked for an audience. Gong Ling thought he was here to remonstrate, so he drew his bow and arrow. As long as Xun speaks to persuade, he will shoot Xun. Who knows, after Xun came, he seemed to be relaxed and natural, just like he didn't see his posture. He smiled and said to Gong Ling, "I'm going to perform a stunt for you today so that you can open your eyes and relax. Are you interested, your majesty? "

When Gong Ling saw something interesting, he came to God and asked, "What stunt? Don't keep me in suspense, just show me. "

When Xun saw the bait, he said, "I can overlap 12 and add 9 eggs to it." Do not believe, please see. " Say, then really play. He stacked the pieces of 12 one by one, and when he put the eggs on them, everyone around him looked at him nervously. Gong Ling couldn't help but say loudly, "It's too dangerous! This is too dangerous! "

When Xun heard this, he took the opportunity to say, "Your Majesty, don't be strange, there are more dangerous things than this!"

Gong Ling was surprised because it was exciting and dangerous enough for him. What could be more thrilling than this? He couldn't wait to say, "Really? Let me see! "

At this time, I only listened to Xun word by word and said with great sadness, "The nine-story platform has been built for three years and has not been completed yet. For three years, men can't farm in the fields and women can't weave at home. They all move wood and stones here. The Ministry of Finance is running out of gold. Soldiers can't get supplies and weapons can't be cast. Neighboring countries are planning to take the opportunity to invade us. If this goes on, the country will soon perish. What would you do, your majesty? Isn't this more dangerous than laying eggs? "

Hearing this, Gong Ling suddenly woke up and realized what an absurd thing he had done and what a serious mistake he had made. He immediately ordered to stop building the platform.

Gong Ling followed the advice and avoided harm. There are many negative examples in history.

Han Zhou once recruited a wise man when he was a county magistrate in Nanhai County, and Han Zhou trusted him very much. After Han Zhou was promoted, they broke off contact. Ning Zongshi, Han Tuo, as a consort, was appointed Pingzhang, in charge of state affairs. He often misses this scholar when he encounters difficulties.

One day, the scholar suddenly came to Hanfu and asked to meet Han. It turns out that he was a scholar, and after he became an official, he would relax at home. Han was very happy to see him and asked him to stay as a staff officer and give him generous treatment. The scholar didn't want to be an official again, but Han Zhou always wouldn't let him go, so he had to promise to stay for a while.

Han Wei regarded the scholar as a confidant and talked about almost everything. Soon, the scholar offered to leave. Seeing that he was determined, Han Tuo agreed and bid farewell to him. While drinking, the two men recalled what happened in the South China Sea and chatted very speculatively. In the middle of the night, Han Zhou retired, moved his seat in front of the scholar, and asked him, "I am now in charge of state affairs and seeking national rejuvenation. What does the public opinion outside say? "

The scholar immediately frowned, raised his glass, gulped it down, and sighed, "The Pingzhang family is in danger of collapse. What else can we say? "

Han Zhou knows that he never tells a lie, so he feels heavy. He asked with a bitter face, "Is it really so serious? What is the reason? "

The scholar took a rather inquisitive look at Han Tuo and shook his head. He seems surprised that Han Tuo hasn't realized this yet, saying, "The danger is obvious. Why did Pingzhang turn a blind eye? You didn't contribute to the queen's creation. The queen must hate you very much. The crown prince was not established because of your strength. How can the Crown Prince not hate you? Neo-Confucianism such as Zhu, Peng Guinian and Zhao Ruyu were called "sages and gentlemen" by people at that time. If you want to recall them and exile them, the literati will be dissatisfied with you; It is not wrong for you to actively advocate the Northern Expedition, but during the war, our army suffered heavy casualties, and the bones of the soldiers of the three armed forces were abandoned on various battlefields. The cries of relatives of fallen soldiers can be heard all over the country, and the soldiers in the army should bear a grudge against you. The Northern Expedition is going to make the mainland people bear unbearable military expenses, and the poor can hardly survive, so people all over the world will blame you. Pingzhang, how can you bear such great hatred and resentment alone? "

Han Ta was startled and sweaty. After a moment of silence, he drank a few glasses of wine before asking, "You and I are called superiors and subordinates. Actually, I regard you as my brother. Can you avoid destruction? " You must teach me a way to save myself! "

The scholar repeatedly avoided, and Han Tuo asked stubbornly with a little wine strength. The scholar finally said, "There is a way, but I'm afraid it's useless."

The scholar said sincerely, "I sincerely hope Pingzhang can accept my suggestion this time! Today's emperor is still free and easy, and he is not very persistent in the throne. If you quickly set up the organizational system of the East Palace for the Crown Prince, and then convince the emperor to pass the throne to the Crown Prince as soon as possible with the stories of Yao, Shun and Yu, then the Crown Prince will change from hating you to thanking you. Once the prince ascended the throne, the queen was honored as the empress dowager. Even if she still resented you at that time, she couldn't get back at you. Then, you take the opportunity of assisting the new king to refresh national politics. You should pay tribute to the gentlemen and sages who died in exile, pay for their families, recall the living to North Korea for reuse, and let you and the literati get back together. You should also pacify the frontier, don't act rashly, reward all the soldiers and treat the dead well. In this way, you can bridge the gap with the army. You should also cut government spending and reduce taxes, especially all kinds of exorbitant taxes imposed on the people in the name of military spending, so that the people can taste the joy of coming back to life. In this way, people will praise you. Finally, you choose a contemporary scholar, give him a flat position and retire yourself. If you do this, you may be able to turn the corner and turn disasters into blessings. "

As soon as Han came to power, he refused to let Xian abdicate. Secondly, his ambition to unify the world did not disappear in the process of his northern expedition to the Central Plains. Therefore, he still refused to rush back, knowing that he was in danger. He just forced the scholar to stay with him in order to improvise. Seeing that Han Wei was hopeless, the scholar refused to suffer from the disaster of pool fish, and soon left.

Later, Han Tuo launched the "Celebrating the Northern Expedition" and suffered a fiasco. The Southern Song Dynasty was forced to make peace with the northern state of Jin, which made it one of the conditions of peace talks to investigate the "guilt" of the first northern expedition. In the third year of Jubilee, Han Tuo, who was extremely isolated in the ruling and opposition parties, was killed by the Southern Song government, and his head was sent to the State of Jin in a box. The scholar's words worked.

Coincidentally. Wokuotai, the son of Genghis Khan in Mongolia, was relieved when he ascended the throne of Khan. He asked the generals to travel to the west, and he stayed in Helin to enjoy it. His demand for pleasure is getting higher and higher. Lin Cheng was built, Wan 'an Palace was built, Yingjia Hall was built, large-scale construction was carried out, talents were recruited, concubines were created, and there were hundreds of beautiful women in the harem. He drinks as drunk as a fiddler every day. After waking up, Wokuotai listened to songs, watched dances and played with women, and her body soon weakened. Originally a valiant soldier who fought in the north and conquered the east and killed the west, he has become a sickly old man.

Lu Ye Chucai, a veteran who has always spoken out, always kept his promise before Genghis Khan and Wokuotai. But at the moment, everything that Yelu Chucai said was ignored. He is anxious and angry. In the long run, even an iron mountain will be destroyed sooner or later. Now, Wokuotai trusts Odura, the courtier.

This Odura turned out to be a businessman from the western regions, eloquent and good at making profits. Finally, he actually got mixed up with Wokuotai and became a trusted minister. The greatest advantage of this man is that he can play. Wokuotai is not happy drinking without him! Wokuotai is obedient to him. But he tried his best to please Wokuo Tai.

On this day, Wokuotai just woke up drunk, and Yeluchucai came to Wokuotai with an iron thing in his hand, and the edge was rotten. I don't know what that is.

Wokuotai looked at Lu Yechu Cai and the things in his hand and asked in surprise, "What's that thing in your hand?"

"This is a wine trough," Lu Ye Chucai said unhurriedly.

"wine trough!" Wokuotai felt a little puzzled. The old man had another idea and asked inexplicably, "What are you doing with it? Shall I give you some royal wine? "

"no!" Yeluchucai shook his head and said with a straight face, "I want your majesty to see it."

"Isn't this just an ordinary wine trough?" Wokuotai looked at it carefully and said casually, "And the side has rotted. What is there to see? "

"I don't know, why does this wine trough rot?" Yeluchucai plays dumb!

"What's wrong with you today?" Wokuotai wondered what medicine the old man was selling today. "Don't ask, it's just corroded by wine!"

"Long live Mingjian!" Yelu Chucai led the situation back: "Such hard cast iron can be corroded by wine, which is very powerful!" What happens if a person stays in wine all day and all night? Sorry ... "

After such a big detour, the original topic is here.

Wokuotai really wants to teach the old man a few words. However, when we think about it calmly, Lu Ye Chu is not only an old minister, but also a loyal minister. He used to be a man who made great contributions, so he changed his tune and said, "Your loyalty to me is really commendable. Just remember it later! "

"Long live, if so, it will be a blessing for everyone. I apologize! " Yeluchucai walked out.

Yeluchucai had just left the palace when Odu came in. He said to Wokuotai: "I found another good wine, which was brewed by a small hotel opened in Tonglin New Town. The owner of this small hotel is a Han nationality who moved from the south and brought a beautiful young lady. "

For an instant, Wokuotai was very happy, but he frowned when he remembered Yeluchucai's advice just now. He shook his head and said, "Just now, Zhongshu ordered Yelu Chucai to enter the palace to persuade me that I agree with him to drink less in the future!"

"Great Khan is the king of a country", odola provokes to please in the tunnel. "No matter how old he is, he is just a minister. Only the monarch is in charge of the minister, where there is the truth that the minister is in charge of the monarch! "

"You don't understand!" Wokuotai said meaningfully: "All famous monarchs in history should listen to advice. Li Shimin was afraid of his minister Wei Zhi. He has to play with a bird, hit a pig, and carry Wei Zhi on his back! "

For these famous stories in history, Audora blows fire with a rolling pin and knows nothing about them. However, he does have the ability to watch the wind turn the rudder and improvise! He immediately to a one hundred and eighty-degree turn:

"Your majesty is knowledgeable and what he says is naturally correct." He rolled his eyes and took the opportunity to say, "It's late autumn and early winter. Why don't we go out hunting? You can also enjoy drinking for a few days while hunting, and you can avoid being accused by the secretariat! "

"hmm!" Wokuotai was seduced by Odora's golden words. "That's a good idea!"

The next day, Wokuotai really led a group of cronies to hunt.

Tired of running during the day, I stopped to play. Drink as much as you want in the evening. Watching dancing when you're drunk ... is a fairy's life.

However, Wokuotai never imagined that he did not adopt Yeluchucai's harsh suggestions and was extremely sad.

One night, Wokuotai got drunk after midnight. The maids waited on him to lie down, but he was too drunk to understand.

He didn't get up at dawn the next day; It's time for dinner, but he hasn't got up yet. He hasn't got up by lunchtime. The guard felt that things were not good and had the courage to check the accounts. He is too ill to speak.

Suddenly, the people who followed Wokuotai panicked and surrounded Wokuotai, and there was nothing they could do.

Kung fu is not big, he set foot on the road to death, this year, he was only 56 years old!
