The king of a country often has a certain city government, and even loves to put up shelves. As an ordinary person, it is not an easy thing to meet, and it is even more difficult to be an enemy. If you want to show your talents, seek a way out, or have a major matter involving national interests, even if it is difficult, you must try to meet it. Ning Qi was quite knowledgeable, and he was bent on getting the reuse of Duke Huan of Qi, so he took advantage of the qi huan highway to beat the horn and sing, and sure enough, he was received by the duke of Qi Huan and was used heavily; Bo Ying was ordered several times to assassinate Duke Wen of Jin, and when he learned that Lü Province and Hao Rui were going to assassinate Jin Wengong again, he had a remorseful heart, so he went to see Hu Yan late at night, asked him to introduce Duke Wen, and informed lü province and Hao Rui of the conspiracy. Wen Gong was deeply disgusted and refused to see each other. When Duke Wen of Jin fled, Heshu had stolen the treasury of Heavy Ear, resulting in a lack of funds and begging for food for Cao and Wei. Knowing that Duke Wen of Jin had forgiven Bo Wei and spared Lü and Hao of his difficulties, he also wanted to be tolerated, so he said that he had come to see That Gong Wen had a strategy for the state of Jin, and Duke Wen of Jin did indeed abandon his previous suspicions and summoned his head to see him; The King of Qi Wei was drunk every day, listened to music, and did not practice state affairs. During the nine years, Han, Wei, Lu, and Zhao Xi raised troops to fight, and the generals were repeatedly defeated. Zou Ji was so worried that he wanted to consult king Qi Wei, so he seized the psychology of king Qi Wei's good tone, called himself Zhiqin, and was received by King Qi Wei in the form of a violin, and was reused... Receiving a king is a prerequisite for reuse or forgiveness, and learning and mastering the way of seeking it is the first step to success.
If a talented person wants to get ahead and make a career, he must be reused by the king, otherwise he can only have empty ambitions. If you want to get the king's reuse, either find someone to recommend it, but it will be difficult, or you can find your own way to let the king know. How do you let the king know about himself? First of all, we must find a way to let the king see himself. As long as there is a chance to face the king, it is possible to be reused. Kings often fight or patrol with their armies, and with great momentum, it is not a good idea to take advantage of this opportunity.
However, it is said that Guan Zhong has a concubine named Jing (静), Chung renunciates people, and has wisdom in literature. Huan Gong is lustful, and whenever he travels, he will follow him as a concubine. Guan Zhong also followed Jing's line. On that day, Guan Zhongjun went out of the south gate, traveled about thirty miles, to the mountain of Yue (Scratch), saw a wild man, short brown single clothes, torn barefoot, herding cattle at the bottom of the mountain. The man sings with the horns of the bull. Guan Zhong was in the car, observing that his people were extraordinary, and making people work with wine and food. After eating, yefu said, "I want to see Father Xiangjun Zhong." The messenger said, "The Xiangguo car has passed." Ye Fu Yue: "There is a certain word that is fortunately passed on to Xiangjun: "Hao Hao white water!" "The Messenger chased after Guan Zhong's chariot and described it in his words. Guan Zhong was dazed and did not understand the so-called, in order to ask the concubine Jing. Jing Yue: "Concubine Wengu has a poem cloud of "White Water": "Haohao White Water, the fish of the catfish (strip), the king has summoned me, and I will live in peace?" This man is desperate. "Guan Zhong immediately ordered him to stop and make people summon him." The wild man sent the cattle to the village house, and accompanied the emissary to see Guan Zhong, and chang yi did not worship. Guan Zhong asked for his name, "Wei Zhi Ye Ren ye also, surname Ning Ming Qi." Mu Xiangjun is a good sage and does not hesitate to trek here. For no reason, he herded cattle ears for the villagers. "Guan Zhong knocked on what he had learned, and coped with it like a stream." Sighed: "Haojie is insulted by mud and does not encounter quotations, so why should he show himself?" My army is behind, and it will not be long before it is here. I shall be a book, and the Son shall hold it upon himself, and he shall use it again. "Guan Zhong, that is, the book is bound, and it is handed over to Ning Qi, and they are separated from each other. Ning Qi still herded cattle under the Mountain. Qi Huan's army arrived in the rear for three days, and Ning Qiyi was in front of the short brown single-shirt, torn and barefoot, standing on the side of the road, and did not fear it. Huan Gong rode on the public opinion, and Ning Qi tapped the horn of the bull and sang:
Nanshan can, white stone rotten, there are carp long and a half feet. Born not to meet Yao and Shun Zen, the short brown single clothes to The Dragon (赣). From the dim meal to the middle of the night, when is the long night?
Huan Gong heard about it and ordered him to rush to the front of the car and ask where his name was. Qi Yishi said: "The surname Ning is Qi. Huan Gong said, "Ru Mufu, why do you have to ridicule the current government?" Ning Qi said, "Subject, dare to sneer?" Huan Gong said: "When the son of the day is on the top, the widow leads the princes to serve the world, the people are happy, the grass and trees are wet, and the sun is in the sky, but so." Ru means 'not to meet Yao Shun', but also to say: 'The long night is not dan', what is not sarcasm? Ning Qi said, "Although the subject is a villager, he does not see the government of the first king." However, when you taste the life of Yao Shun, one wind for ten days, one rain for five days, the people cultivate the fields and eat, sink wells and drink, the so-called 'do not know, shun emperor', yes. Nowadays, the Ji Gang is not vibrant, and the indoctrination is not good, and the Shun Ri Yao Tian, the honest villain does not understand it. And he also heard of Yao Shun's world, who was serving a hundred officials and princes, going to the four evils and the world was safe, believing without saying a word, not angry and threatening. Now the Ming Dynasty and song back to the meeting, and then to lu robbery alliance, with unremitting use of troops, the people toil and wealth, and it is known that 'the people are happy, the grass and trees are wet with spring', and the villain has not solved it. The villain also heard that Yao abandoned his son Danzhu and let the world be yu Shun, and Shun avoided the South River, and the people tended to worship him, and had no choice but to take the throne. Now that the king killed his brother to win the country, the false heavenly son ordered the princes, and the villain did not know how to let Tang Yu let him! Huan Gong was furious: "Pifu is not inferior! "Drink and order it." Left and right will be tied up and will be executed. Qi's color remained unchanged, and without fear, Yang Tian sighed: "Kill the dragon Feng, kill Bi Gan, and now Ning Qi is with him for the three!" "This man does not see the trend, he does not see the might, and he is not ashamed of his power, and he is not an ordinary shepherd." Forgive me! Huan Gong's thoughts turned, his anger subsided, and he ordered ning Qi to be released, saying: "The widow talks about trying to test the son, and the son is sincere." "Ning Qiyin probed into his arms and came out of the Book of Zhong. Huan Gong demolished and looked at it. Book Slightly Cloud:
The subject was ordered to go out of the army and march to mount The Mountain, and to defend the man Ning Qi, who was not a shepherd, but a useful talent in the world, and it was advisable for him to stay and assist himself. If the forsaken messenger is used in neighboring countries, there is no regret!
Huan Gong said, "Since the Son has the Book of the Middle Father, why not become a widow?" Ning Qi said: "The courtiers hear that 'the wise men choose people as the supporters, and the wise men also choose the Lord and assist them.' 'If a king is as evil as he is righteous and good, and if he is angry, he will not produce the book of the kingdom. "Huan Gong Da Yue, ordered to be carried in the car later." It was late, the army was suspended in the lower village, Huan Gong ordered the fire to be raised, and the crown was very anxious. The temple man said, "Junsuo is dressed in a crown, for Jue Ning Qi Hu?" Huan Gongyue: "Yes." The temple man said, "Wei is not far from Qi, so why not let people visit him?" It is not too late to make others fruitful. Huan Gong said: "This person is talented, informal, afraid that he is in defense, or has a fine experience." If you visit it too much, it is not only a pity to abandon it! "That is, under the lamp, Bai Ningqi became a doctor, so that he and Guan Zhong could participate in state affairs." Ning Qi changed his clothes and came out. [Chronicles of the States of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, p. 110]
[Analysis: Ning Qi wanted to see Qi Huangong, so he wore a short brown single dress, tattered his bare feet, stood by the side of the road, and saw Huan Gong riding the public opinion, so he knocked on the horn and sang to attract Huan Gong's attention. Huan Gong heard about it, and rushed to the front of the car to ask for his name and place. Ning Qi was able to meet Huan Gong and take the opportunity to show his talents and get Huan Gong to use them. ]
