Recruit talents-the only person who can bring peace.

When Tang Taizong was young, he was famous for being good at netting talents. Before and after the Battle of Jinyang, Li Shimin became close friends with Liu Wenjing and Pei Ji, and made a war plan with * * *. After capturing Chang 'an, he proclaimed himself emperor, relying on Fang, Du Ruhui, Wuji,, Qin, Duan Zhihong and other large numbers to win in succession in the war of unifying the world. He also killed Cheng Jian and Yuanji in the Xuanwu Gate incident and ascended the throne of the emperor. As early as four years in Wude, he captured Dou Jiande and Wang, returned to Beijing triumphantly, and was made a general, so he opened a literary museum and bought eighteen bachelors. This fact shows that Li Shimin, the king of Qin at this time, was neither an emperor nor a prince, but he actually took it as his duty to govern the world. Otherwise, what is his intention to open a literature museum and recruit talents from all over the world? Li Shimin knew that he had to get the help of a think tank in the palace of Qin. With the help of a group of military commanders such as Wei Chijingde, he became emperor. That is, after the emperor ascended the throne, on the issue of how to govern the country, it is natural to take the recruitment of talents from all over the world as the premise of stabilizing the world and governing the country. Li Shimin proclaimed himself emperor in August of the ninth year of Wude, and set up the Hong Wen Pavilion in September, which shows the importance he attached to those in power.

According to the record of selecting officials in Zhenguan, in the first year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong and others said: The only reason is to judge and measure officials before appointing them as provincial officials. Therefore, the book says that being an official is a meritocracy, and a cloud official is not necessary, but a person.

In the first year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong said to his right servant Feng Deyi: The foundation of political security lies in winning the people. It's better to raise a virtuous person by life, and never recommend it. Things in the world are heavy, so you should share my troubles and pains.

If you don't say anything, I'll send it I am stupid, how dare I not indulge myself, but today I don't see any wizard's power.

Feng Deyi answered correctly.

In the previous generation, the Ming kings made people like utensils, all of them took the scholars at that time, not borrowed talents from different generations. How can they treat Fu Shuo, meet Lu Shang and then politicize it? And there are no saints in any generation, just don't know what disease they are suffering from.

Emperor Taizong regarded the people as the foundation of peace and refuted the fallacy that the right servant shot Feng Deyi and did not recommend talents. Ti retreated in shame. Emperor Taizong's instructions to Prime Minister Fang and Feng Deyi on seeking talents expressed his attention and desire for talents at the beginning of his reign.

In the second year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong and Du Ruhui said: As a courtier, you should help me worry about my work, broaden my eyes and ears, and seek wisdom and wisdom.

Emperor Taizong said to his courtiers: I live in the deep palace, I can't see or hear. I only appoint governors and secretariat officials. This generation really needs people because of chaos.

Here, Emperor Taizong regarded getting people as the key to the relationship between state management and chaos. By "winning people", he not only refers to the prime ministers and ministers of the imperial court, but also includes local governors, secretariat, central and local officials.

In the third year of Zhenguan, the other side of Emperor Taizong and Du Ruhui said: The public is a servant, and private capital is widely collected and appointed at will. So is the position of prime minister.

Emperor Taizong regarded the people as the foundation of peace, and its purpose was to stabilize the world and benefit the people. Just like in the first year of Zhenguan, he said to Du Shang, the minister of the Ministry of War, "I now order those who can do it to benefit the people, not those who can do it." I respect the old and incompetent people in the clan, respect them, and I will not let them go. With your loyalty, I'll give you a ride today, and I'll take it as a gift when I clear a cotton.

Wei Zhi also fully affirmed Tang Taizong's thirst for virtue in his early years: at the beginning of Zhenguan, he was thirsty for virtue, and good people did what he believed.

During the reign of Emperor Taizong, he always attached great importance to the selection of talents. Until the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, he said to the courtiers: Those who can secure the world can only use talents now. You don't know saints, and I can't believe them. Day after day, others have no reason.

Emperor Taizong's thirst for talents led to peace in the world, which was also manifested during the Zhenguan period. He sent five letters seeking talents. According to the whole Tang Dynasty, there are letters of recommendation from talented people, letters of recommendation from Huainan, Hebei Province, letters of recommendation from visiting Xian Taishan in February next year, letters of recommendation from counties and counties and letters of recommendation from all States in the world. These letters reflected Emperor Taizong's understanding and attention to Ren Xianzhi, which not only expressed his thirst for talents, but also was one of his measures to bring peace to the world by recruiting talents. What Emperor Taizong said to Shi Quan Wanji, the assistant who manages books, is not as good as getting millions of dollars! . In Fan Qiu Sage, Emperor Taizong said, "A thousand gold is like the splendor of thousands of people and the weight of saints." He also said, husband Kuninosuke, will be loyal; Let people do whatever they want, and the world will be autonomous.
