Chapter 73 Eligibility
Nobles come to offer incense and observe the Dharma, so they will not be crowded together with commoners.

At this time, the entire Tai Chi Palace was emptied inside and outside.Many pilgrims were kicked out inexplicably, and most of them gathered in the empty space outside the palace. Some people waited impatiently, and some devout people still prayed and kowtowed.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the nobleman to come out.

It turned out to be an old man with foot disease and obviously bad walking. Although there were many servants around him, he didn't look dignified.

This caused many people who wanted to watch the excitement to sigh in disappointment.

Until a wise man shouted: "That's Mr. Shang Shu You Cheng Tu Shan!" Many people hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted.

Tu Shanyi walked out of the main entrance slowly, Chong Xuanzi supported him and waited on him carefully.

Everyone knew that Chongxuanzi was a disciple of Daoist Master Changchun, and he was very profound in Taoism. Seeing his majestic appearance, handsome appearance, and handsome appearance, they respected him even more.He also heard what he said to Tu Shanyi, with a thick and pleasant voice: "...don't worry, my lord. Elderly people often have chronic diseases. When the spring qi attacks, they will be mentally tired and the old diseases will start. It is also winter time. , embrace the stove to smoke clothes, eat and burn the cooking to accumulate. In the spring to vent, it is inevitable that the body will be hot and dizzy, and the waist and feet will be weak, all of which are the diseases accumulated in winter!"

He spoke loudly here, and the believers lying on both sides of the road whispered: "This is the most lofty words of the immortal! Write it down! Write it down!"

The two came down to the carriage surrounded by attendants.Tu Shanyi got into the car first.Seeing that the onlookers were all driven away, surrounded by his attendants, Chong Xuanzi hesitated a little, followed, and stretched out his hand to lift the curtain on the car.

"Brother, I promised Guo Ning a lot today...is it worth it?"

"What do Zhiyuan think?" Tu Shanyi asked with a smile.

"I see this man's nature as a tiger and a wolf, and he has little respect for the imperial court. If you support him and allow him to calmly solicit power, I'm afraid it will be a source of chaos in the future!" Chongxuanzi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Brother has read a lot of poetry and books. , Have you forgotten the old events of the Six Towns in the Northern Wei Dynasty?"

Tu Danyi dragged his legs, sat down in the car, and waved to Chongxuanzi.

Chong Xuanzi hurriedly boarded the car, the driver in front shouted, and the car drove away.

Amidst the sound of rolling wheels, Tu Shanyi said softly: "I understand what Zhiyuan means. However, the situation of the country is such that some things must be prepared no matter what."

"But……"

Tu Shanyi naturally knew what his family member was struggling with.It wasn't just Guo Ning who made him fear and doubt: "Zhiyuan, do you think that some things won't happen if I don't participate?"

Chongxuanzi's heart trembled: "Master, you mean..."

"You think, Wanyan Gang is still in control of the army inside and outside the central capital. The elite soldiers are all under the tent, and there are generals such as Shuhu Gaoqi, Shujiachenjia and other generals to help. It would be difficult to compete with him. Then, why did he spend so much effort to recruit He Shi Lie Zhizhong?

In this regard, Chongxuanzi really didn't think about it: "After all, Heshi Liezhong is also a veteran?"

Tu Shanyi shook his head: "What kind of veteran is he? He's just a vicious dog who acts recklessly. And Wanyan's outline is the word 'reckless act'!"

He raised his cane and tapped Chongxuanzi's chest: "You also know the old things since the founding of Dajin. When King Hailing was in chaos, Emperor Sejong was pushed by the world. But King Hailing is still here, why? What to do? At this time, it is necessary for Yelu Yuanyi and others to stand up at the right time and do something that ordinary people dare not do."

Chong Xuanzi's face was gloomy, and he said in a trembling voice: "Brother, what you mean is that Wanyan Gang suddenly supports He Shilie's reinstatement, and his intention is not in the Jinshan front line, but in the Central Capital?"

Just in the past hour, he knew too many things that he shouldn't know. At this moment, both mentally and physically, he was almost unable to support himself. The cold sweat on his back was even more dripping, soaking the white Taoist robe. .

Tu Shanyi didn't answer.

After a while, he said slowly: "When everyone doesn't follow the rules, vicious dogs have their uses, and vicious tigers have their uses. This Guo Ning is the one I specially prepared. Evil tiger."

Chongxuanzi tried his best to cheer up, and persuaded: "Then the evil tiger must be available! What's more, if the evil tiger comes out and eats people in the street, wouldn't it become a new problem?"

Tu Shanyi laughed.

"Zhiyuan, you haven't led soldiers before, so you don't understand."

Tu Shanyi has been in politics for decades and has read many people. Of course he can see Guo Ning's character.

It seems that these warriors who started in the army, even if they succeed, still use violent means to solve problems.They thought that they could always kill blood with swords and guns, so they seldom paid attention to affairs outside the battlefield...then they died inexplicably.

This Guo Ning is the most outstanding among them.He was not in a daze, although he gathered thousands of routs, he knew how to restrain himself, and did not run amok in the local area, but after arranging money and food supplies, he came to Zhongdu to negotiate conditions.

But this kind of person with too low a family background has jumped to a high position without any experience, and after all, there is a limit to his knowledge and talent.He has no way to recruit talents to assist him, nor can he train qualified officers, let alone build the perfect system needed by an army.

What does an army need?There must be training, promotion, and selection of personnel, a military law system that judges punishments, and military staff. There must be people in charge of horse administration, ordnance, food, fodder, supplies, and money. These people must cooperate with each other and work closely together. Linked to form an orderly running whole.

Among the defeated soldiers, a small number of military and political talents may be selected, but with this small number of people, can a complete and reliable system be run?That's impossible.

That's not what Du Shisheng can do.Du Shisheng's talent lies in his understanding of the aristocrats in Zhongdu, his miscellaneous knowledge, but not his specific practice... Otherwise, his name would be indispensable to the "Ten Philosophers" of the Xu family.

Besides, what role can Du Shisheng play?Confucian scholars or experienced officials from all over the world would not take refuge in the so-called bravery assembled by Guo Ning. The thousands of elites that Guo Ning claims are just a grassroots team that can't exert their full strength.

Tu Shanyi has already noticed that after the formation of the so-called Anzhou Volunteers, they have never fought a large-scale battle, but Guo Ning ran rampant with a small number of elites.

Among them, I am afraid that the internal military and political affairs have not been straightened out, and the inconvenience of mobilizing the army is an important reason!

Guo Ning is obviously an ambitious person, but he will definitely not be able to solve this problem.

On this, only Tu Shanyi can help him.Although Tu Danyi didn't have any troops to mobilize, but as Shangshu Youcheng, full of peaches and plums, his clan had great potential, and he was full of talents in his pocket.As long as Shan Yi stepped forward, this group of volunteers from Anzhou could immediately obtain the necessary talents.

These talents will assist Guo Ning to build and upgrade the army into a truly usable military division.And this process of building and improving is also the process of gradually restraining the evil tiger.

When the time is right, this army will definitely act in accordance with Tu Danyi's wishes.

"In addition... Zhiyuan, don't worry." Tu Shanyi said slowly: "This Guo Ning came here with the head of Chizhan Sagai, thinking that he can force me... that would be too small for me. This person has He doesn’t have the qualifications to be used by me, so it’s worth me to reach out to help, you have to try to know. If he can’t stand the test with his big words, haha, then let’s stop talking about it.”

"test?"

From Tu Danyi's plain words, Chong Xuanzi felt a sense of aura.He was slightly wary and looked at Tu Danyi.

Tu Shanyi said nothing more.He lowered his eyebrows, as if resting his mind.And under the kind and graceful demeanor, it is still the big gold official who has gone through decades of ups and downs, but has always stood firm.
