Chapter 1471: First have a country, then have a family

After hearing this, all the major aristocratic families began to think about it. Li Feng suddenly said that he needed their support, which made them very embarrassed.

If they say they support it, they have no power. If they say they don't support it, now they represent the major families. If they say they don't support it, then they really don't support it.

Just when the officials of the family were in a dilemma for Orihime, Li Feng said again: "Since everyone is so hesitant, I will not force everyone.

It takes three years to build the railway. As soon as the railway is completed, the steam train will be on the road.

But it’s up to you to decide whether this route will pass through your various aristocratic families? Or whether it will give way to your various aristocratic families.

I know that none of the adults present can decide this matter. Anyway, I am not in a hurry. You can go back and discuss it with your clan members."

"Thank you very much, Prince Consort. I will go back and discuss it with my clan members right now," said an official from a noble family.

Then he saluted Li Er and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of the steam train is related to the rise and fall of the Tang Dynasty. I forgive you for being unreasonable. Please retire first."

Li Er nodded slightly and said: "Go."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Watching an official from an aristocratic family leave, other aristocratic families also asked Li Er to resign, and Li Er agreed one by one.

When the people were almost gone, Wei Zheng said: "Consort, why are you so troublesome? As long as you need it, the imperial court will naturally order them to hand over the land."

Li Feng said: "The imperial court decreed that it was robbery by force. What we have to do now is to make the people sincerely recognize the imperial court."

"Now the people have recognized us very much." Wei Zheng said.

Li Feng shook his head and said: "Only 80% of the people recognize the imperial court now. For the other 20%, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor, as long as they live their own lives well."

"Isn't that true?" Wei Zheng said.

"Of course that's not the case. The real recognition is that once the country encounters a natural or man-made disaster or a foreign invasion, no matter whether he is a man or a woman, whether he is a soldier or an ordinary citizen, whether he is a scholar or a warrior, whether he is an old man or a child, they

They will all help the court.

They understand that only a country has a home. When a local disaster occurs, they understand that when one party is in trouble, all parties will support it. They understand that when foreigners invade, their country will be destroyed and their family will be destroyed.

When the people truly recognize the imperial court, the Tang Dynasty will become a truly twisted rope," Li Feng said.

No one can shake the enthusiasm of Li Er and others. We will make our blood boil, especially Li Er. If he can be recognized by the people and the court, his life will be worth it.

"It's difficult, it's too difficult." Wei Zheng said to ruin the atmosphere, "Once the dynasty changes and the people know that they have a new emperor, they will doubt whether this emperor will love the people as much as the previous emperor."

Li Feng nodded and said: "Yes, this is an unsolvable problem. My master has thought of countless solutions, but none of them worked. In the end, I just came up with an impossible solution."

Li Er asked: "What can we do?"

Li Feng replied: "That is, each emperor can only sit on the throne for twenty years, and after twenty years, he will abdicate in favor of a worthy person.

Then supervise the new emperor during his lifetime. Whenever the new emperor does anything that harms the interests of the country, he can be reminded. If it is extremely excessive, then the new emperor can be deposed.

And the Supreme Emperor and the ministers in the court will discuss it again and establish a new emperor."

It would be too bold to abolish the new emperor, establish a new emperor, and ask His Majesty to abdicate in favor of someone worthy of his throne. At this time, everyone did not dare to say anything and quietly waited for Li Er to speak first.

At this time, Li Er had no expression on his face. No one knew what he was thinking, and no one dared to ask for fear of offending Long Yan.

, if the common people were to become one as Li Feng said, then they would simply be seeking death in dealing with the Tang Dynasty.

Fortunately, the people of the Tang Dynasty now recognize the Tang Dynasty. They are just willing to recognize the management of the Tang Dynasty and call themselves people of the Tang Dynasty.

But now it's even more interesting. Li Feng actually said such words, asking the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to only serve as emperor for twenty years, and then abdicate in favor of someone worthy of the throne when the time is up. Isn't this forcing Li Er to abdicate? What an interesting thing it is.

.

At this time, Songtsen Gampo and others were watching the show. Was Li Er going crazy and punishing Li Feng, or was he really deciding to abdicate after twenty years?

Fang Xuanling and others on the side all wiped away the cold sweat for Li Feng. At first, they thought Li Feng's words were very good. If the people can really consciously support the people affected by the disaster, and they will take up arms against the enemy when foreign invaders invade, then

The Tang Dynasty will be extremely powerful.

But when he finally came up with a solution, Li Feng actually said that the emperor would abdicate the throne after serving for twenty years. This meant that the emperor would only sit on the throne for twenty years and then give the throne to someone else.

They believe that no emperor will accept such a thing. It is clear that the emperor can be the emperor for thirty, even fifty or sixty years, but instead of being the emperor for twenty years, no emperor will agree to this.

.

Wei Zheng now regrets very much why he mentioned this matter. If he hadn't mentioned it, there wouldn't have been so many things, because of his mouth.

At this time, Wei Zheng wished he could slap himself in the face.

However, in such a tense atmosphere, Li Feng seemed to be okay and continued: "My sect has analyzed the dynasties of the past dynasties, and they are all similar.

But I only spoke highly of the Qin State during the Warring States Period, very highly."

"Oh, tell me, how high is it?" Li Er asked calmly.

Li Feng replied: "First of all, everyone knows that although Qin is a powerful country, it cannot be compared with Wei, which was the dominant country at that time. Especially before Shang Yang's reform, Qin wanted money but no money, no people, no weapons.

weapon.

The Wei State had the most powerful military force at that time, and the Qin State could only say that it was an egg against a rock, and it was not overestimating its own capabilities.

But Qin State dared to compete with Wei State, which was the strongest at that time, why did they dare to do this?"

"Why?" Li Er asked curiously.

Others are also very curious, why does Qin dare to do this? When facing a powerful country, it is not the right thing to surrender.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Li Feng explained: "I didn't understand at the time, so I asked my teacher why? Facing the powerful Wei State, Qin State should avoid its edge.

My mentor told me that because the people of Qin considered themselves to be Qin people, Wei soldiers were just called Wei soldiers.

The people of Qin can unite and twist themselves into a rope. In their hearts, they only have the country and no family. In other words, they have the country first and then the family.

Therefore, when fighting against the soldiers of Wei, Qin Qiong was not afraid of death. They dared to fight, because they were fighting not for the king of Qin, but for the entire Qin state."
