If you can't hold on in life, look at him, at the age of 70, he only showed his ambitions and ambitions. The 70-year-old man's words, Qin Mugong said yes again and again, and said from the bottom of his heart: "Sir, the widow seems to have heard the second phoenix song under Qishan again. ”
Baili Xi, the doctor of Yu in the Spring and Autumn Period, ** Qin Weixiang, is a famous politician and military strategist in the history of Qin, known as "Doctor Wuxi".
Baili Xi was originally a doctor of the Yu State, but the Yu State was destroyed by the Jin State, and he unfortunately became a prisoner of the Jin State. Later, when Qin Mugong heard about Baili Xi's virtuous ability, he tried every means to recruit him. In the end, Qin Mugong exchanged five black sheepskins from the Jin Kingdom for Baili Xi and worshiped him as a doctor.
Baili Xi knelt respectfully in front of Qin Mugong. His gaze was firm, but at the same time there was a hint of vicissitudes.
The first question, Baili Xi asked softly: "Dare to ask the monarch, the minister is old, I don't know if the monarch thinks that the minister is stupid and useless?"There was a hint of doubt in his voice, as if he feared that his age would be a hindrance.
Qin Mugong replied with a smile: "Mr. Baili, age is not a measure of a person's talent. Your wisdom and experience are priceless, and I have no doubt about your abilities and have no doubt about your contribution to the Qin State. ”
The second question, Baili Xi hesitated a little and asked: "The minister is the minister of the dead country, I don't know if the monarch cares about the minister's past?"There was a hint of self-deprecation and inferiority in his tone, fearing that his countryless status would become a burden.
Qin Mugong's face turned straight and replied solemnly: "Mr. Baili, it is not your fault that the country has died. A person's worth is not in his origin, but in his talent and character. I value your talent and wisdom over your past. ”
The third question, Baili Xi took a deep breath and asked: "The minister has been poor all his life, but now he is with the monarch, I wonder if the monarch will feel that it is a loss of face to work with the minister, and he is not afraid of the jokes of the world?"There was a hint of self-deprecation and trepidation in his voice, worried that his poor background would become a stain on Qin Mugong.
Qin Mugong laughed and replied boldly: "Mr. Baili, you are too worried. A true monarch does not care about the eyes of others, but pays attention to a person's talents and virtues. Your talent and wisdom are enough to be admired by the world, and it is my honor to work with you, so how can I care about the opinions of others?”
For Bailixi's three questions, Qin Mugong denied them, which made Bailixi very grateful. Subsequently, Baili Xi stood up and explained to Qin Mugong the four aspects of Qin's reversal from a great reversal to a great shun: first, Qin was always on guard against Rong Di's intrusion and did not dare to slack off on its armaments, so its soldiers were strong;The second is that the Qin State will not advance eastward for the time being, will be allied and fight for hegemony, will not be hurt by small profits, and will have some national strength;The third is that Qishan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, when the time comes, out of Qishan and eastward, it will be like a tiger going down the mountain, and the earthquake will be in the summer;Fourth, the small country of Rongdi is not less than a few feet, if it can be annexed one by one, the land can be farmed, the people can be filled with troops, agriculture is the foundation, recuperation, people are trained, and the country is getting stronger and stronger.
With these four aspects of good times, today Qin established the country in Xirong, and tomorrow will calm the troubled times and determine the world. Baili Xi's words made Qin Mugong say yes in a loud voice, and said to Baili Xi from the bottom of his heart: "Sir, the widow seems to have heard the second phoenix song under Qishan again. In this way, Baili Xi changed his destitute fate and walked into the palace of Qin.
With the assistance of Baili Xi, the Qin State gradually became stronger. He actively pursued reforms, advocated a policy of "re-imparting to the people", and devoted himself to the development of agriculture and commerce in the Qin state. He also presided over the state affairs of the Qin State, repaired the politics internally, rectified the rule of officials, and actively expanded externally, so that the Qin State gradually became a powerful country among the princes, laying the foundation for the unification of the six kingdoms of the Qin State in the future.
After Baili Xi's death, his son Meng Mingshi inherited his position and became the general of the Qin State, making great achievements for Qin Mugong, and two generations of people were loyal to Qin Mugong, and since then, the Qin State has become stronger and stronger, laying the foundation for Qin Shi Huang to unify the six countries.
