The emergence of the prosperous era in ancient times was all because of the explosion of talents
Without talent, there will be no stable society, no high-speed development of science and technology, and no strong national strength. The rise and fall of a country is directly related to the abundance or lack of talent.
In ancient times, it was because there were many talents to assist the emperor that the emperor could realize his blueprint.

Emperor Tang Ming was powerful in the early stage and dilapidated in the later period, one of the reasons was the lack of talent. When Emperor Tang Ming was in Shu, he sighed on a horse, how could he be like this!At that time, Gao Lishi followed him and said: "Your Majesty, this is not to blame yourself. "Emperor Tang Minghuang asked what to say?
Gao Lishi said: "Who told you to use Li Linfu as the prime minister?"Tang Minghuang sighed on the horse and said, "Li Linfu, this kid, I know he will be like this." Gao Lishi said: "Your Majesty, you also know that he is bad?"Tang Minghuang said: "Why don't you know!."Colliers said, "He's bad, why use him?"”
Tang Minghuang said: "Oops!."You don't understand that. Now I can't find another one as bad as Li Linfu!”
Tang Minghuang's words illustrate that talents are hard to find.
