Peerless Taoist

"Why is that? Everyone in the court and wilderness thinks that the Lu Party is about to step onto the stage. If you make such a decision, I'm afraid it will cause criticism." Cheng Jin exclaimed.    

Lu Yu shook his head. "I admit that there are also many outstanding young people in the Lu party. These people are capable, hot-blooded, and dare to take responsibility. They are indeed outstanding talents."    

"However, there are still quite a number of people in the Lu Party. They are passionate, but they do not have practical skills or experience. If I let these people go on the stage, it will only make the court more chaotic!"    

Cheng Jin's expression suddenly became serious:" At least you can admit that they are loyal to you. You have just ascended to the throne, so you need a group of loyal officials to assist you. "    

"No"    

Lu Yu shook his head. "Master Cheng, a loyal and incompetent official, and a treacherous and ambitious official, which is more beneficial to all living things?"    

Cheng Jin thought for a moment and said, "To the king, loyalty is the most important. To the people, it is more important to have something to do with it."    

"That's right." Lu Yu said in a deep voice, "There were many famous officials in the Middle Ages. Some of them saw the sect attack. They ordered the whole city to defend, and in the end, the whole city was slaughtered. Some of them chose to commit suicide when they saw the great disaster. To comfort the heavens."    

Cheng Jin nodded. "These are all recorded in the official's books."    

Lu Yu said, "The problem lies here. The Imperial Court has chosen people to be officials to let you benefit one side, to let you take responsibility, and not to let you achieve your own reputation."    

"These people have achieved their own high morals and integrity, but they have no help to the local areas. I don't think they can be called good officials."    

Cheng Jin closed his eyes and thought for a long time before he said, "I understand what you mean. The members of the Lu Party are too young and do not understand too many things. Some things are not enough to just rely on their hot blood."    

"Therefore, the members of the Lu Party cannot be used now. I need to filter these people. Those with talent will be entrusted with heavy responsibilities. Those without talent will have to continue training. Now is not the time for them to show their edge."    

Lu Yu said, "Disciple invites Master Cheng to come out of the mountain because I hope that you will be able to see through him. Try to choose as many capable officials as possible. In order to recover their luck in a short period of time, each yamen must have sufficient reliable manpower. We'll have to rely on Master Cheng for all of this!"    

Cheng Jin took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. He was deep in thought.    

"Many years ago, when I left the official field, my original intention was to calm my heart and teach to understand the vast and profound meaning of the scholarly faction."    

Cheng Jin let out a long sigh. "Forget it, a gentleman takes advantage of the situation. I can't always be stubborn about my inner thoughts. Since His Majesty needs me, this old bones of mine, for something. This old man will naturally do his best to help His Majesty achieve immortality."    

"Thank you, Master Cheng!"    

Lu Yu bowed to Cheng Jin with a solemn expression.    

This was an extremely important part of Lu Yu's plan.    

Next, Lu Yu would use a series of methods, and there must be an old official who could support him in the court.    

This was also the reason why Lu Yu chose Cheng Jin.    

Cheng Jin was not only experienced, but also had a high status in the Confucian Sect. Many conservative and conservative officials were particularly respectful to him.    

Lu Yu had brought Cheng Jin out of the academy and changed him from a quiet academy to a hot political field.    

In Lu Yu's heart, he had already made arrangements for Cheng Jin. He would definitely treat him well in the future.
