Datang: I am the prince of salted fish, I impeach Li Er at the beginning

Chapter 160 Wonderful, Learned!

Cui Zhiwen was stunned by Li Zhi's slap in the face.

But when he finished digesting what Li Zhi said, he suddenly felt enlightened.

"Yup!"

"Isn't the cause of this incident the unscrupulous relatives of the ministers who are bluffing around in their names?"

"Let the ministers take charge of their own relatives, this idea is really great!"

Cui Zhiwen clapped his hands and praised loudly.

But then, he fell into doubts again.

"But... can't we deal with the court ministers?"

Cui Zhiwen looked at Li Zhi and asked, "Take the power to deal with them and scare them. If someone refuses to obey, what should we do?"

This is like a white wolf with empty gloves. The power in the hands of the imperial court cannot pose a threat to the court ministers at all.

If you can successfully scare them, that's all right.

If they can't be frightened, the court will be reduced to a complete joke.

He will be laughed at by scholars all over the world.

Hearing this question, Li Zhi snorted coldly and said with a light smile, "Do you still remember the Prisoner's Dilemma I told you about?"

"Why, this matter is also related to the prisoner's dilemma?" Cui Zhiwen hurriedly asked.

"It's more than related, it can be said to be exactly the same."

Seeing Cui Zhiwen looking over for help, Li Zhi explained calmly: "It's not that the court can't deal with the ministers, but that it can't deal with the ministers on a large scale. There is still an essential difference between the two."

"Whoever dares to be the early bird, let him do it. You can see if the knife in the court's hand will cut him on the neck and it will be over."

"Have you heard of killing chickens to scare monkeys? At worst, kill a few ministers and scare those monkeys."

"I want to see if there are a few tough-headed guys."

Everyone is very good at harming others.

But harming oneself and benefiting others?
I'm sorry, the officials of the imperial court really don't have the habit of harming themselves and benefiting others.

If you want to fight against the imperial court, you have to throw out a few victims, right?
So, who would be willing to be that "hero" for the overall benefit of everyone?

This is exactly the same difficulty faced by the prisoner in the prisoner's dilemma.

Everyone knows very well that as long as a few people die, the court will have nothing to do with them.

But who wants to be the one who was sacrificed?
No one will put himself into a situation where he must die in order to help others.

There may be such saints, but at least they will not appear in the court.

What's more, those relatives who committed the crime themselves had conflicts with the courtiers.

If it hadn't been for their recklessness, the ministers would not have fallen into the embarrassing situation they are in today.

The hatred of those courtiers towards those people is not necessarily less than that of the court.

Anyway, let them deal with their own people, then there must be no problem.

After all, distant relatives are just familiar strangers. Who would fight against the court for a stranger who is not very close?

As long as the relationship and hatred between the various groups are clearly seen, the case is not difficult to handle.

It's just that most of the time, no one can sort out these connections.

Hearing Li Zhi's complete analysis of the whole case, Cui Zhiwen couldn't help but be convinced by Li Zhi while being stunned.

The case involved such a large scale and spread so widely that people couldn't even see the clues, so it was easily solved by King Jin?

And judging from this person's performance, it seems like he didn't use any brain.

Just wandering around to find a solution to the problem, and by the way, use this example to educate myself.

This... this gap is too big, right?
Could this be the reason why King Jin was able to gain the trust of the Holy One in such a short period of time?

Such insights and ingenuity are indeed a little scary.

If anyone saw him, it would be difficult to restrain his love for talent, right?
Or could it be said that the talent of this His Highness has already surpassed that of the one in the court?
This is unknown.

"Been taught a lesson!"

Cui Zhiwen saluted sincerely and bowed to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi looked at him with a smile on his face, and joked, "This is a big gift just after Chinese New Year. Are you going to wish me an early New Year? I mean next year's New Year's Day."

"Screw you!"

Originally, Cui Zhiwen was still immersed in the mentality of looking up to an expert, but was forcibly pulled back to reality by Li Zhi's words.

Looking at Li Zhi's teasing expression at this moment, how could it look like a worldly expert?

The whole thing is a mess.

After hanging out with Li Zhi for a long time, Cui Zhiwen couldn't tell whether he was capable or not, and how capable he was.

The main reason is that Li Zhi doesn't have the image of a superior person at all, and his private personality is even casual to the point where it is occasionally annoying.

Where can I find such an extraterrestrial expert?

This person is too down-to-earth, so that it will make people feel, this is an illusion of ordinary people.

Cui Zhiwen observed Li Zhi's harmless human and animal face complicatedly for a while, and thought: If anyone underestimates you, I'm afraid it will suffer a big loss, right?
In fact, Cui Zhiwen was too worried.

No one in the court dared to underestimate Li Zhi.

Not to mention provocative.

Even if there was a quarrel, everyone took the initiative to avoid provoking conflicts with him and did not even dare to say a harsh word.

Those old foxes in the court hall have seen too many smiling tigers, and they will not underestimate Li Zhi because of his approachable attitude.

Who can stand alive in the hall, which one is not a human spirit?
Who doesn't know that Li Zhi is a monster that cannibalize people without spit out bones?

Only the guy who thinks his own life is too long will fight against him.

Li Zhi was already invincible in the court, right?

Of course, there are still people who want to cheat him.

But Li Zhi can't be fooled.

It's fun for a while, if you accidentally stand in line, you will be in trouble everywhere.

The most important thing is that those who want to cheat him are all theoretically their own people, which is a bit annoying.

Sometimes, the person who wants to harm you the most may be your teammates, not your enemies.

Standing on Vanity Fair, you must always recognize these threats from other places.

If you are not careful, you will fall into a trap designed by others.

But anyone who can be a high-ranking official has to be careful and vigilant. None of these people is a fuel-efficient lamp.

"Okay, I don't need to talk about the rest of the matter. You can find a solution to the problem yourself. Let's stop here for today's discussion."

Li Zhi stood up and stretched, tilted his head and looked at Cui Zhiwen, "In the future, if you encounter difficulties, remember to deeply analyze the relationship and weak points between various interest groups, and carefully look for the breakthrough. With the above two points, most of the problems encountered in the court will not trouble you."

After thinking for a while, Li Zhi added another sentence: "Of course, the premise is that you have a strong enough backer."
