Li Luo knew very well that the harm of "The Alliance of Chanyuan" was not the covenant itself, but the toxic side effects brought by this covenant.

The reason why he talked about "The Alliance of Chanyuan" by writing "History of the Song Dynasty" at the court meeting was to teach the ministers a lesson and warn them: Even if the country is big, forgetting to fight will lead to danger!

No matter what era we are in, we must maintain a courageous spirit and a soldier who can fight.

Li Luo believes that the 100-year peace in the Song and Liao dynasties after the "Chanyuan Alliance", actually the covenant itself has little effect.

The two countries have ensured long-term peace, but is it really just the role of "Zhenyuan Alliance"?

As long as you study the history of that period, you will know that it is not that simple.

Of course, the Song Dynasty did not want to fight again, nor did it dare to fight again. The fear of the Khitan by the Song court made Emperor Taizong of Song never dared to fight northern Khitan again after the defeat of the Northern Expedition. He was determined to seek peace and peace and would not take the initiative to raise trouble.

It’s a gentleman!

To this end, the Song court strictly restrained the people in the frontier, so that they would never offend the Khitans, and also forbidden the people in the frontier who had always been martial, "banned from practicing bows and horses" to avoid "misunderstandings" from the Khitans.

If the Khitans cross the border, they would be sent back by the gifts of persuasion by border officials. But if the Song people dared to cross the border, they would be embarrassed, and the officials would definitely punish them severely, so as to avoid "misunderstanding" the Khitans.

Therefore, the border between the Song and Liao dynasties is actually very unequal. This is recorded in the poems and notes of the Song people.

So whether there is or not "The Alliance of Chanyuan", it is difficult for the Song Ting to take the initiative to send troops to challenge trouble.

So why did the Khitan abide by the covenant?

The reason why the Khitan did not invade the south was completely different from the Song court.

Song Ting dared not.

The Khitan cannot, not want to.

Although "The Alliance of Chanyuan" restricted the Khitan's southern invasion, the absolute only check and balance force is not even the most important check and balance force.

You should know that the Khitan destroyed two Central Plains dynasties during the Five Dynasties and once ruled the barbarians in the Central Plains for a short time. The Khitans massacred many times in the Central Plains, and Xiangzhou alone was massacred twice within 30 years. This led to Xiangzhou turning from a prosperous city in the Tang Dynasty into an unknown small city.

How could such a barbarian not covet the Central Plains's brilliance and do not want to occupy the Central Plains again?

Does this fit the logic of the robber?

Can such barbarians not invade the south by just a single covenant?

After "The Alliance of Chanyuan", Khitan nobles rarely invaded the south, mainly because they could not.

Why not? Just look at the history of Liao and see how frequent civil strife in the Khitan were.

Either the royal family competed for the throne or the nobles rebelled, and there were few times of stability. It can be said that the Liao Dynasty was one of the most frequent civil strife.

This led to the Khitan being in turmoil in the middle and late periods, which made the Khitan having no time to invade the south. If the emperor left Shangjing and the emperor personally expedition, there might be someone in the court behind him.

If the emperor was in charge of the capital and sent someone else to command troops in the south, a rebellion might occur.

Even when the Jin soldiers rebelled against Liao, the Khitan nobles were still rebelling endlessly and fighting in the internal struggle.

The so-called "to stabilize the country first when fighting foreign countries," is not unreasonable. At least in most periods, this is indeed the case.

In this situation, the risk of the Khitan's southern expedition was too great. Although the emperor was afraid of a fire in the backyard, the nobles did not dare to move lightly. Even hunting and patrol were easily couped and mutiny, let alone the southern expedition.

During the two hundred years of the Liao Dynasty, there were as many major civil strife recorded in historical books as many as twenty-eight times. There were countless unrecorded and not-significant civil strife.

The only stable Shengzong Dynasty also attacked Goryeo several times, suppressed the Bohai rebellion, expeditioned the Uighurs in the west, Wei in the Beiping Shi, and attacked the Jurchens in the east, and had no time to look to the Song Dynasty in the south.

After the death of Emperor Shengzong of Liao, civil strife occurred frequently again.

This is the most important reason why the Khitan abides by the "Chanyuan Alliance": frequent civil strife and no time to look south.

So I can't invade the south, I don't want to.

So from a purely military perspective, did the Khitan army have the strength to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty?

Later generations generally believed that the Liao army did not have the strength to destroy the Song Dynasty.

Li Luo's views on this are different from mainstream historical views.

He believed that the Liao army had the strength to destroy the Song Dynasty in military terms. To be precise, it had the strength to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty in the middle and late periods.

The corruption speed of the Liao army was far less than that of the Song army.

The combat power of the Song army was actually still very strong until the reign of Emperor Taizong. The Wu Yulie of the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties was not a big deal. The combat power of the Song army in the early Song Dynasty was definitely ranked high in history.

The true complete depravity was after "The Alliance of Chanyuan".

The combat power of the Liao army was still not bad until the eve of its demise. Agu defeated the Liao army. The Liao Kingdom persisted for ten years before it destroyed the country due to frequent civil strife. This also included the contribution of the Song Dynasty to join forces with Jin to destroy Liao.

Even so, the elite Western Army of the Song Dynasty, when cooperating with the Jin army's northern expedition, was defeated by the remaining troops of the Liao army with its superior forces, and almost wiped out the entire army, ruining the last elite of the Song army. The commander Tong Guan fled back to Tokyo in a panic.

Yelu Dashi was able to expedition to the Western Regions with only 20,000 remaining troops and establish the Western Liao. He once once fought against the Jin Dynasty in the east, forcing the Jin army to maintain heavy troops in the northwest for a long time. In order to deal with the Western Liao Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty had to be rebellious against the Western Xia and form an alliance with the Western Xia.

How many Jurchen soldiers could the Jin army have? Many of the soldiers who destroyed the Song Dynasty in the southern expedition were surrendered by the Liao army, but they could defeat the Song army.

It can be seen that the strength of the Liao army in the middle and late stages was too much stronger than that of the Song army in the middle and late stages. This gap must be greater than that in the early Song Dynasty. If 300,000 Khitan cavalry went south without worries and used war to support the war, what would the Song army with weak combat power resist?

At least it occupies the north of the Yellow River, so there should be no problem.

Therefore, it was not the "Chanyuan Alliance" that allowed the Northern Song Dynasty to enjoy a hundred years of peace, but the innate shortcomings of the Khitan feudal system, which retained a large number of slavery remnants, which made the aristocratic power too large, politically turbulent, and lacked the operating time and space for the calm southern expedition.

Political stability is a very important strength. The fact that the Khitan cannot destroy the Song Dynasty is because of its lack of political strength.

In other words, even if the "Chanyuan Alliance" was not signed, the Northern Song Dynasty did not receive annual monies from the enemy every year, and the Khitan was still unable to invade the south unless the Khitan could solve its political shortcomings.

Isn't it very ironic? According to Li Luo's view, what the Northern Song Dynasty spent was actually a waste of money and was given for free. Without spending this money, the Khitan did not dare to frequently fight in the south. Both sides fought from time to time, and the Song army could still maintain strong combat power under the pressure of the Liao army.

Then, the Song army had the strength to suppress the rise of Dangxiang Li's clan, and might even be able to destroy them while Dangxiang Li's clan was weak. Moreover, the Jin soldiers might not be able to easily destroy the Northern Song Dynasty, which had strong combat power. The Northern Song Dynasty might also take back the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun and confront the Jin Kingdom on the front line of the Great Wall.

If the Jin Kingdom could not occupy the Central Plains in that way, it would maintain its strength in the northern border, suppress Mongolia's rise, or have the opportunity to destroy Mongolia, and Mongolia could not rise, then...

Li Luo didn't dare to think about it anymore. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the impact of "Zhenyuan Alliance" was too great.

"Mr. Wen, tell me." Li Luo retracted his thoughts, hoping that what Wen Tianxiang said was similar to what he thought.

Wen Tianxiang said: "Reply to Your Majesty's words, I think that the "Chanyuan Alliance" uses money and silk to make the Song and Liao dynasties a hundred years without any trouble. Therefore, there was Song Xia's "Qingli Peace" later."

"The Alliance of Chanyuan is an alliance under the city. The Song court was called "Equal and Equal," but actually a matter of Qufu. How could the enemy go deep into the border, burn, kill, and loot, but retreat with money and silk but not for Qufu? Then, the gift was changed to Na. If the minister serves the lord, how could he fly to Qufu?"

"The robber broke into the door and asked for money and poisoned the inner court, and then he sent out money and bribes to retreat. How could the head of the family be wrong?"

Wen Tianxiang’s first meaning points out that “The Alliance of Chanyuan” is actually unequal at the beginning. Others come to your house to kill and set fire, and then you spend money to ask him to leave. The two of them “reconcile” and have to spend money every year. Later, they changed the name of “gift” to the name of “paying tribute”. Is this equality?

What's wrong with the world?

Wen Tianxiang continued: "After the "Zhenyuan Alliance", the Song court forgot to fight and left the army, and his military preparations were abolished. He even used the same trick of bribery to nourish the Dangxiang Li family, begging the border, and thinking that it was a plan to sell it, which was undoubtedly a matter of cutting flesh and raising tigers. As a result, Dangxiang started to rise to the northwest but the army could not be controlled. Yuan Hao cedeed the land and established the country, defeating the Song army three times, and then the Western Xia was born."

Li Luo agreed with Wen Tianxiang's statement, which was the same as his point of view. Yes, the establishment of Xixia has a lot to do with "The Alliance of Chanyuan". The Song Dynasty tasted the "sweetness" of spending money to buy peace, which led to the sluggishness of military preparations and formed the thinking of spending money to buy peace.

This is the most dangerous thing. I really thought that you could buy peace by spending money. It even became the collective consciousness of the monarch and minister for generations.

Then, when Li Deming and Li Yuanhao and his son in the northwest made an ambitious attempt to resign themselves and escape from the Song Dynasty, Song Ting still habitually spent money to buy peace and used money to nourish Li Deming and his son, causing Li Deming and his son to grow bigger.

True raising tigers is a disaster.

In fact, at the beginning, the Song army was fully capable and had the opportunity to destroy the power of Li Deming and his son. However, they did not use troops, but instead sent money to comfort him for years, hoping that the Li family and his son would be grateful and not be independent.

It can be said that the father and son of Li were very lucky because they met the Song Dynasty after "The Alliance of Chanyuan".

If it weren't for this, no matter whether it was the Tang, Ming, Qing, or even the Song Dynasty, the Li family and son would have no chance to establish the Western Xia Dynasty, but would have been destroyed long ago.

However, under the eyes of the Song Dynasty, the Li family and his son developed from a local warlord to a powerful country that shocked the northwest.

And it was during the prosperous period of the Song Dynasty.

After the Western Xia rose with money, Li Yuanhao used troops against Song three times, and they all won a great victory. The Song army defeated the few with the crowd, but instead suffered three defeats. This shows how weak the Song army is.

At that time, it was less than forty years since "The Alliance of Chanyuan".

In less than forty years, the military preparations of the Song army collapsed to an uncontrollable extent, which led to the little Western Xia repeatedly aggressively using troops against Song and annexing many territory that originally belonged to the Song Dynasty.

Wen Tianxiang talked about the evil consequences of "The Alliance of Chanyuan":

"...If it weren't for the "Chanyuan Alliance", although the war between the Song and Liao dynasties continued, the Khitan fought frequently, and there was no power to destroy the Song Dynasty, so he did not dare to go south to attack the Song Dynasty easily. The Song court did not dare to forget the battle for a moment, and was able to temper the soldiers and horses, and would never have weak combat power."

"In this way, how could the Dangxiang Li family resist hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers with barren land and tens of thousands of soldiers in the Song court? How did the Song court lose three times and make the Western Xia dominate the northwest?"

"The combat power is weak, and you can only win by number, so that the Song army raised more than one million soldiers, causing the risk of redundant soldiers. In order to control the redundant soldiers, the risk of redundant officials has increased, so that the country will be able to raise weak soldiers every year."

"In addition, there was a loss in the northwest, there were Khitan tigers in the north and a Dangxiang evil wolf in the west. They sent annual monies on both sides, and cut off the east-west trade routes (Silk Road). The commercial taxes were greatly reduced, resulting in the increasingly difficult financial resources of the Song court. Wang Anshi reformed the new and old parties and the government was corrupt and uncontrollable."

"As far as I see, the situation of the weak Zhao Song Dynasty began in the early Song Dynasty to suppress martial arts, it actually deteriorated in the "Chanyuan Alliance". Before "Chanyuan Alliance", during the reign of Emperor Taizong, the strength of the Song army could still control Dangxiang in the west and resist Khitan in the north, and still had the intention of regaining lost territory and rebuilding the Han and Tang dynasties. Yang, Pan, Cao, Huyan, Zhe, Wang and other generals still flourished and remained brave. "

"But after "The Alliance of Chanyuan", the scholars and officials thought they had obtained a plan and regarded their mediation and believed that diplomacy could be at peace with the world. The king and his ministers were careless, and their civil and military affairs were played, and their desire to fight was even worse, resulting in the collapse of military preparations and the generals withered. After Zhezong, the soldiers in the Central Plains of Hebei were almost chaotic. When they arrived at Huizong, the Jin soldiers went south, and the Song army could not control the invasion of one million, which caused the Jingkang disaster."

"So, I think that the "Chanyuan Alliance" has more harm than good, and it has aggravated the poverty and weakness of the Song Dynasty. It has a great harm. It is used to seek peace with money, although it is uneven, even if it is peaceful, even if it is uneasy, it will not last long. The benefits and disadvantages of this must be observed. I must clarify the disadvantages of the "History of the Song Dynasty".

Li Luo nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and Gu Qunchen said, "Mr. Wen's words are incisive and thought-provoking, and it is true."

Lin Biju and Yao Shun, who had previously had positive comments on "The Alliance of Chanyuan" were also in thought at this time.

Since the signing of "The Alliance of Chanyuan", most of them have a positive attitude, both in the court and in the people. Because although spending money to buy peace is not glorious, peace talks have indeed reached and created a hundred years of peace in the Song and Liao dynasties. During this century, the two countries rarely fought, so the old man did not know the war, and the people of the Central Plains enjoyed peace for a long time.

But Wen Tianxiang's words made them feel that this seemed to be the case.

It is very likely that without "The Alliance of Chanyuan", the shame of Jingkang would not have occurred.

A big country with a huge population will not be so unbearable as long as it has a large army that is good at fighting, right? It will be defeated in one or two years, with only half of the southeast left, and survived by the dangers of the rivers?

As long as it is enough to fight, so many soldiers will be able to kill the Jin people. Why is it defeated at once? The defeat is like a mountain of defeat. Hundreds of thousands of troops are like mobs, and they are useless?

At first glance, "The Alliance of Chanyuan" has created a hundred years of peace in the Song and Liao dynasties, but it has caused weak military strength, exacerbated the emphasis on literature and military affairs, paralyzed the ruler and the people, and sent out billions of money to pay for the enemy. It is really not worth it.

Li Luo concluded: "Mr. Wen's words are very kind, and I feel very worried about my heart. I can't afford to buy peace by spending money because it is too expensive. It not only costs people's wealth, but also costs the courage, backbone, courage, confidence and ambition of the military and civilians! Can it not be expensive?"

"These invisible things are more valuable than wealth. If they are gone, no matter if you are a big country with a population of hundreds of millions, you will still be regarded as a dog or sheep!"

"The disadvantages of "Zhenyuan Alliance" are not just to send billions of money out in the front and back? They also lose courage, backbone, courage, confidence, and ambition! The Song court has a peaceful and military service, and has forgotten to fight for a hundred years. There is only a million troops but vulnerable! So that Xixia dominated the northwest, and there is even the crisis of Jingkang and the shame of crossing the south."

"Zhao Song is like this, and the Jin Kingdom did not summarize the lesson. The Jin Kingdom repeatedly sent his children to Mongolia for peace, but the morale was very bad and the morale was sluggish. The military and civilians feared Mongolia like tigers. How could they not perish?"

"I have a word that must be recorded in "Hongwu Zhengyao". Our Tang Dynasty restored China with its force, and its martial arts cannot be defeated. The Tang Dynasty only used martial arts to defend the world, used martial arts to invade, and opened its territory with martial arts!"

"Our Tang Dynasty will never exchange peace for marriage, pay tribute, pay compensation, and severe the land. This is my imperial edict and my ancestral teachings for future monarchs and ministers!"

"Although the country is big, forgetting to fight will lead to danger! I would rather die with the Tang Dynasty than die with the weak!"

"Our Tang Dynasty governs the world with Tao, and martial arts are also Tao. The nobles and nobles of the civil and military officials destroyed the country's destruction of the Great Wall. A lawless act is absolutely not advisable!"

"One day in the Tang Dynasty, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will be glorious for one day!"

All civil and military officials were in a state of excitement and knelt down the mountain together to shout long live. Especially the generals, all of them were extremely excited.

Your Majesty’s shocking words ensured that even if the world was peaceful, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would not be despised like Zhao Song. During the Zhao Song Dynasty, even a general like Di Qing, who had outstanding military achievements, was looked down upon by the court. It was so disappointing.

Your Majesty, I, the soldiers of the generation, thank you for your holy kindness!

Cui Xiuning looked at Li Luo with a majestic and strong tone, and had to admit that Li Luo was really a competent emperor, and he was able to take on the word "明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明明�

This is the domineering spirit that the founding king should have.

…………

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, the Tang court had sealed the retreat.

It has been snowing heavily in Chang'an for several days and the eight waters are frozen.

It's almost New Year's Eve.

But because the Supreme Emperor died shortly after the Tang Palace did not hold a large New Year's Eve banquet, and the New Year's Day banquet was also cancelled.

The emperor and the empress and the prince mourn the emperor and were not in the mood to enjoy the joy of the New Year.

Even the civil and military officials of the court, especially the old subordinates of the Supreme Emperor, did not have the intention to enjoy themselves.

The Forbidden City in the snow is even more beautiful. Li Luo and Cui Xiuning stay in Qiankun Palace, which burns the Wangwang Silver Frost Charcoal Beast Furnace, checking the account books that the Ministry of Finance just submitted.

The two sat by the fire of the beast in the hall, flipping through the account books with their heads in their heads.

"This year's commercial tax is indeed less than 20%." Cui Xiuning frowned, "the monopoly income has also been reduced by 10%. The total income in Hongwu in six years was only more than 120 million."

Li Luo put down his account book, "It's more than 20 million less than last year. However, this year's victory in the Western Expedition, he seized more than 20 million worth of property, which can barely tie the way last year."

"Next year, military expenditure will be reduced, commercial tax and tariff revenue will increase, relief will be greatly reduced, and the court's finances will be abundant."

Although the data this year is not very good, it is still within the scope of acceptance by both of them.

A silver dollar in the Tang Dynasty currency is worth one or two taels of silver. This year's income of 120 million silver dollars is actually 120 million taels of silver.

This data is already very large.

It was twice the total income during the heyday of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty's taxes were mainly physical and there was not much silver.

Cui Xiuning smiled and said, "From the perspective of currency, we actually made money. Not only did we seize a lot of gold and silver, the gold and silver mines in Yingzhou, Siam, and Hengbei, this year, have also produced more than 5 million. The fleet that sailed for the second time in Yinzhou also brought back more than 10 million."

Li Luo nodded: "When I think of these gold and silver mines, I feel at ease. Twenty years later, the silver shortage of the Tang Dynasty will be completely alleviated."

As the two were talking about this, Kangxi's voice suddenly came: "Report to Your Majesty, Empress, Li Yong, the Da'an Mansion Order, asked for a meeting."

"pass."

"promise!"

Soon, Li Yong came to His Highness to worship, "My minister, Li Yong, bow to Your Majesty, Empress, long live long live long live long!"

"Get up." Li Luo raised his hand casually, "But there is important information in the west?"

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and if there is no important information, the Da'an Mansion Order will not enter the palace to meet the saint.

"Your Majesty's wiseness is indeed an important news from the West." Li Yong took out a memorial from his sleeve and delivered it.

"Your Majesty, Empress, the Yellow-Headed Eyes failed to fight against the Yuan Dynasty. The Yuan court controlled the West. All the Yellow-Headed Eyes had shaved their hair and changed clothes. Kublai Khan died of illness and was lost in the Fontainebleau Palace on the fifth day of the 10th. Zhen Jin and Empress Chabi also died of illness. The third son of Zhen Jin, the Zhao king of the Mongol, launched a palace transformation and imprisoned Ananda, the King of Anxi, and had succeeded to the throne..."

"Temur named the traitor Wang Silang as Duke of Shu, set up the Secretariat, Wang Silang as the Right Pushe of the Secretariat, and governed the six ministries with great power... and also valued the Han army as its arm. Da'an Prefecture analyzed that the popularity of Han officials in the Yuan court has risen sharply, and it is possible for Mongolia and Han to govern together in the future..."

Li Yong roughly said it.

The reason why this information was transmitted from Paris to Chang'an in less than three months was that the news was first sent to the Persian Gulf, then returned to Myanmar by naval warships, and then delivered to Chang'an through the inn.

At this time, the fastest path to deliver messages from the West.

If you are purely on land, it will take at least four or five months to send the message back.

After reading the report, Cui Xiuning and Li Luo showed a hint of emotion when Li Yong retreated.

"I didn't expect that Kublai Khan died more than two years earlier." Li Luo said, "Okay, there is no Uncle Kublai Khan in this world."

The so-called uncle is of course just a joke between the two. However, Li Luo’s view of Kublai Khan is very complicated.

Even, he couldn't help but think of a scene back then: it was winter, he sat on a dog sled and went to meet Kublai Khan through the frozen lake of Taiye Pond, the Dadu Palace.

He fell and rolled in the snow. An old man stood on the shore and laughed.

It was from that day that he gained the trust of Kublai Khan and became the Melgen of the Yuan Dynasty.

It's been ten years.

Xue Chan Khan, you have returned to the embrace of your Mongolians' immortality. Let's go all the way.

Alas, you have conquered such a huge Europe and are a great hero. I will still remember you in this history. I will give you a fair evaluation.

You are the enemy of the Han people and the enemy of the Tang Dynasty, but you are dead... I am even more lonely.

Who else in this world deserves to be my opponent?

If there is a next life, then be enemies with me again.

"I only had a few days apart from my adoptive father's death, both of whom were seventy-seven years old." Cui Xiuning put down his intelligence, "Uncle Kublai Khan died, will the Yuan court split?"

Li Luo shook his head, "There is a high probability that it will not. King Anxi and King Anbei were both under house arrest by Tiemur. This Tiemur was the legitimate son of the real gold and was fully qualified to succeed the throne. He not only had the support of Boyan and others, but also the support of the Han army and the Han officials. As long as he did not act indiscriminately, the kings and nobles of the clan would not dare to rebel against him."

"You have to know that when the Yuan court went to the West, they could only win over Han officials and traitors. There were too many Europeans. Without the help of Han people, the Mongolians could not support themselves. With such a large territory, so many people, and sufficient distribution of interests, the Mongolian and Han nobles would probably unite to suppress the white people. After all, they are the only people of the Eastern race."

"There are no less than 300,000 traitors in the West, all of which are elite soldiers. This is a very powerful force. The families of Han officials who moved westward also have one or two million, which is the most trusted race among the Mongols. The Han forces must support Tiemur. Also, do you know who Tiemur is?"

"Who is it?" Cui Xiuning asked, feeling that this question was a bit inexplicable.

Li Luo showed a strange look, "Timur is the Emperor Chengzong of Yuan Dynasty in history, and he has been the emperor for more than ten years."

He could not have imagined that history had become beyond recognition, but Timur still became emperor.

This person is really lucky.

"So it was him." Cui Xiuning understood, "Then how capable of governing the country in Tiemur in history?"

Li Luo said: "A more mediocre monarch. He is willing to be a Chinese and lacks courage. To be honest, the advantages of this person are nothing more than winning over his subordinates. His ability is definitely not as good as that of King Anxi. This person's succession will be beneficial to us, but it is even more harmful to Europeans."

Cui Xiuning said: "It should be even worse for Europe. You see, he valued people like Wang Silang. If Wang Silang becomes the prime minister, can Europeans have a better life? They will definitely be unlucky for many years."

Since Wang Silang was highly valued by Kublai Khan, he has entered the sight of the Tang Dynasty spies and is also qualified to enter the sight of the spies, and has also entered the "Emperor Heart" of the Emperor and Empress of the Tang Dynasty.

So Cui Xiuning and Li Luo are no longer unfamiliar with Wang Silang.

"This person is despicable, shameless, insidious and cunning. He is a traitor like Sun Zhixie. But he is more cunning than Sun Zhixie. He is also somewhat like Hong Chengchou. It is almost the combination of Hong Chengchou and Sun Zhixie." Li Luo said.

Cui Xiuning smiled, "This Wang Silang was born into a family of officials. His grandfather was the prefect and his father was the county magistrate. But his father and grandfather were dismissed for corruption and dereliction of duty. Therefore, this person's family was in a downturn in childhood and was considered a person who had suffered."

"Personal analysis believes that people who have been rich before and have a downturn in their family when they were young are often more scheming and tougher than ordinary people, because they have a stronger idea of ​​restoring their family business. Wang Silang is a scholarly family. Even if he loses, his education in his youth must be much better than ordinary people. He also feels that the warmth and coldness of human relationships and has suffered a lot of hardships, so once he succeeds, he will become more ruthless and treacherous."

"In the intelligence, he got the importance of the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. But the first thing he did after taking office was to recommend Boyan as Zuo Pushe of the Secretariat. This alone shows that this person is really a natural politician."

"Boyan was originally the Privy Councilor in charge of military affairs, and was also the most important official of the Yuan court, with the oldest qualification. Wang Silang recommended him to serve as Zuo Pushe of the Secretariat, which was equivalent to letting Boyan take on two prime ministers. Then Boyan would of course have a good impression of Wang Silang. Wang Silang could use Boyan to eliminate the disgust of Mongolian nobles for him."

"Secondly, Boyan is old and weak, and has poor energy. He is in charge of the Privy Council, so how can he be more in charge of the government affairs of the Secretariat? So he, the Zuo Pushe, who served as the Secretariat, is just a name. In this way, only Wang Silang is in charge of the two Secretariats, so he can actually monopolize the power of the Secretariat."

"How many years can Boyan live? When Boyan dies, Wang Silang will definitely recommend an obedient accomplice to take over Zuo Pushe, and then he will be able to completely control the Secretariat. This person's personality analysis should be a traitor."

“元廷必须要笼络汉人,这是他的机会.我估计,他下一步就是争取汉官汉将的支持,再拉拢一些蒙古权贵,然而为了转移朝中视线,对白人们动手.文字狱这样的事,他能干得出来.”

Li Luo smiled and said, "I understand. Do you want to use him?"

Cui Xiuning nodded: "He has already had great value in use. We hope that Europe will become with the help of his hands and make Europe what it is."

Li Luo paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, "Just like a prank. I hope that Europeans will have a slutty hair. Well, Wang Silang has helped us achieve this. I also hope that the Cross Church will be divided and Europe will be even more divided. Wang Silang is doing this."

"I also hope that Europe is easternized, that's certain."

"Well, actually, Wang Silang and Yuanting are doing these things too. But it requires long-term implementation and policy continuity."

Cui Xiuning said: "Then let Da'an Prefecture make a plan to break into the class of Han officials in the Yuan court, lurk for a long time, help those Han officials to gain more power and implement the policy of alienating Europe. In dealing with Europeans, Da'an Prefecture must maintain a certain unity with the Yuan court."

The reason why the two of them tried every means to suppress Westerners was because the Western style in later generations was too domineering and too vicious, and the aggressiveness of Western culture was too strong.

They cannot physically exterminate any nation, so they can only alienate the other party's culture and thoughts as much as possible, change the other party's cultural genes, and make Westerners no longer have the "robber spirit".

Li Luo said: "There is another point. With the help of the Han officials, we will promote the Yuan court to ban the sea in the West. The best films are not allowed to go into the sea. Westerners are forbidden to navigate. No strange and lewd skills are prohibited, and schools in various parts of the world are abolished."

Cui Xiuning smiled, "I guess people like Wang Silang will take the initiative to do this. Because it is good for the rule of the Yuan court. Westerners who ruled dozens of times with a few foreign races must of course try every means to prevent and implement the technique of fooling the people and weakening the people. Otherwise, the rule of the Yuan court will not last long. If we don't believe it, we bet that Wang Silang and other Han officials will definitely ban the sea, ban the so-called strange and lustful skills, and prevent Westerners from mastering advanced technologies."

Li Luo touched his beard, "If they don't do this, let Da'an Mansion guide them to do this. Anyway, it's all for the long-term stability of the Dayuan."

If the Westerners knew about these words, they would probably be angry to death.

What kind of hatred do you hate us so much?

What is this? The Far East Conspiracy!
