"And when the people are exploited by the powerful and have nothing, they are when they rise up! So Emperor Taizong of Tang said that water can carry boats, but can also overturn the boats! The power of the people is powerful and very destructive! If you don't believe it, just look at Jiangbei now! That is the real white bones exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing thousands of miles away! Where are the people who blackmail the people and exploit the most? They are all torn to pieces by the people who have been stormed!"

"So we must treat the people well, guide them to build their own homes and live a happy and peaceful life! This is the responsibility that we officials should fulfill! And it is actually not difficult to do this! The way is to go to the people, understand their needs, and face their sufferings!"

"After all, we are also transformed from ordinary people, but we have one or another opportunity, tenacious will and lofty ambitions, so we have reached the position of being a herder today!"

"But this does not mean that everyone is superior to others! On the contrary, we should bow our heads, walk our own path seriously, and think about the future of this country and nation! Only in this way can our country and nation go further and allow our nation to survive forever! You must know that there are hundreds of races in this world, and they are all competing for limited resources. Therefore, we must unite and work together to occupy a dominant position in this world forever!"

"I want to remind everyone here that I see the world and the world you see! Many of you see only the world in the Central Plains, but overseas, there are vast seas and infinite lands outside the pass! That is what I call the world!"

"We want to compete for more land that can be cultivated for our people, and we must spread the ideas of the saints as far as possible to make the world a harmonious place! This puts forward higher requirements for us! On the road ahead, we must grasp the classics of our ancestors and hold the swords tightly in the other! Only in this way can we overcome all obstacles and make a way out in the dark!"

In order to prove what he said, Liu Pei also asked the Intelligence Bureau to collect ten articles and do one by one.

The instructions are spread all over the world!

Three of this article Liu Pei wrote four words directly on it: "It's not easy!"

Liu Pei then refuted these three articles, which was to distort the facts and deliberately take the articles of the sages out of context and distort the original intentions of the sages! The purpose was to confuse others, so as to push themselves to a high position, and enjoy wealth and glory! As for the lives and death of the people and the country, they didn't care at all!

There are four of them, Liu Pei, who also gave an instruction: "Follow the crowd and follow the crowd. No mind or spirit!"

In the subsequent explanation, Liu Pei mentioned these articles, which were filled with other people's thoughts from beginning to end, and had no thoughts of his own. The words were very gorgeous, and the whole article was full of empty and gorgeous words, and they were useless!

But such scholars account for the majority! As long as a famous person climbs up and calls, these people's hearts will be filled with other people's thoughts and have no ability to think independently! If they hear fallacies similar to the other three books, then they will become accomplices of the powerful!

Some people may say that they may also be inspired by some wise men and become good officials! But I can tell everyone responsibly that this is impossible!

Because becoming a corrupt official is so simple that it cannot be simpler, but to become a good official, you have to put in a lot of effort and have great perseverance! And such people who are unwilling to think independently are obviously weak-willed people!

How could a person like this who has no understanding of himself have the willpower to stick to his ideals and ideas? Facing many temptations and threats, he is destined to fall! At most, he will become an official who is not bad to the end!

As for the other three books, Liu Pei praised them, but he still made some criticisms! His criticism was "If you are willing but you are powerless, you still need to work hard!"

Liu Pei then explained that these three articles can be classified as best articles. This best article does not mean how accurate his allusions are and how gorgeous the text is! Instead, it means that they fully reflect their thoughts in these articles! They are exploring the path to save the country and the people and the policy of governing!

This shows that they have their own independent thoughts and strong desires and willpower!

But why do you criticize them here? It’s that their ideas are too unrealistic and not practical! The reason is that they don’t know the situation among the people at all, but are based on their imagination to figure out the future action plan and the path to go! This is destined to make mistakes! And sometimes, doing bad things with such kindness will lead to more serious consequences!

Finally, Liu Pei suggested that if they want to do things, they must do research first! As the saying goes, there is no right to speak without investigation! Only by investigating in reality and knowing the actual situation can they formulate and implement them in a targeted manner. In this way, there will be no situation where they do something wrong with kindness!

Liu Pei's openness and evaluation of these articles were delivered to the whole country with the publicity of the government, and it caused a sensation in the Shilin River for a while! Even ordinary people who never cared about Shilin News were talking: "This new emperor is a smart person! He is much smarter than those who are officials! At least he knows that he has to ask the reason before doing things!"

Just as everyone was talking about Liu Pei’s open letter, under Liu Pei’s instruction, the head of the Confucius Family in Shandong, Kong Yinzhi, the contemporary Yansheng Gong, also published an article expressing his strong support for Liu Pei’s ideas!

Kong Yinzhi clearly stated in the article that there is a very bad trend among the Shilin people now, which is to take things out of context and distort the principles of sages!

To give the simplest example, many fairies teach others to repay grievances with kindness! But did the Tartars rush into your home, plunder your wife and daughter, and kill your relatives, and do you also want to repay grievances with kindness at that time?

You should know that what Saint Confucius really said at that time was "How can he repay kindness with kindness? Repay kindness with kindness and repay kindness with straightforward grievance!"
