Chapter 966: Desperate Qin Hui and the Farm Children of Xiangzhou
"Good boy, please give me a hug!"
Seeing this child, the Emperor of Jin and the Crown Prince of Jin in the tent all smiled, and the anger they had just felt about killing people and feeding them to dogs dissipated.
Xiao Zhao Gou skillfully climbed onto Wanyan Aguda's leg, raised a piece of fur in his hand, and said as if to offer a treasure: "Uncle Huang, this is the prey Gou'er caught the day before yesterday. I cut off a piece of the best skin and offer it to you.
!”
Wanyan Agu laughed heartily: "Okay! Okay! Gou'er is able to hunt down prey at such a young age, and he will definitely be a qualified warrior in the future!"
Xiao Zhao Gou was flattered when he was praised, but instead of snuggling into his arms, he jumped down, put his hands on his shoulders one after another, performed the Jurchen etiquette, and his manners were impeccable: "Gou'er will certainly live up to expectations!"
Wanyan Wu Qimai couldn't help but smile when he saw it: "This is definitely a good man from our Wanyan clan!"
Xiao Zhaogou blinked his eyes and said curiously: "That's me!"
Wanyan Aguda glared at his younger brother, stretched out his hand to hold the child in his arms again: "You are the good man of our Wanyan clan!"
When he said this, his tone couldn't help but reveal a bit of sadness, but he was thinking of his younger brother Wanyan Gao.
In the battle to destroy the Liao Dynasty, Wanyan Gao, as the emperor's younger brother, risked his life to kill Emperor Tian Zuo and won the key to the victory in Beijing. However, he was also seriously injured by Yelu Yanxi's angry bodyguards. He has been lingering on the sickbed ever since.
He is no longer as brave as before, and the child is also taken care of by everyone in turn.
So originally, little Zhao Gou was only close to Wanyan Gao, but now the six Wanyan brothers all feel that this child is lovable and has an indescribable fate with them.
At this time, in order not to hurt the child's young heart, Wanyan Aguda decided on the name, and Xiao Zhaogou officially changed his name to Xiao Wanyangou.
The child was still confused, so the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom turned to Wanyan Wu again and said, "Since you recommended Du Chong, let this person come in, just in time for the school entrance examination!"
Wanyan Wu begged to buy and said happily: "Yes!"
Soon a middle-aged man walked in quickly, not daring to observe the two most powerful men in the Jin Kingdom. He knelt on the ground with a bang and kowtowed repeatedly: "Du Chong pays homage to your majesty. Long live your majesty!"
His posture was extremely respectful, but the smell of blood in the tent had not dissipated. A smell rushed into Du Chong's nose, and his body trembled, almost making him sick.
Wanyan Aguda suddenly frowned. He looked down on cowardly people the most in his life, but when he thought that if he really would rather die than surrender, he would not come north to seek refuge with him, he could hold back his disgust and said, "Do you know who died just now?
"
Du Chong's body trembled again and he quickly said: "He is the one who deserves to die!"
Wanyan Aguda said coldly: "Don't play such tricks. I don't like it. I know Banbo strongly recommends you and says you have talent. I want to see your talent!"
Du Chong secretly complained, and could only express what he observed in the future tense: "I'm telling you, Your Majesty, the common people think that those people are traitors and must have colluded with Yan Ting, so they deserve what they get!"

Wanyan Aguda's expression softened slightly: "That's right. These are the chiefs of Zubu, Bohai, Shiwei and other tribes. They sold good horses to the Yan people. I have shown great mercy and only punished the chief culprits and did not punish their tribes.
Bloodbath, what do you think?"
Du Chong gritted his teeth and said: "The common people think that one clan should be killed to serve as a warning to others!"
Wanyan Aguda had just begged Wanyan Wu and clearly stated that he would use killing as a tool of rule, but now he said coldly: "Is this the way to rule for a long time? You were also a Jinshi in the Southern Dynasties, a leader among scholars.
Is this the only level?"
Du Chong began to talk eloquently: "The sage Confucius said that the people can follow it but cannot understand it. The people are all ignorant. It all depends on how the monarch drives it. Benevolent government can govern the country, and tyranny can also govern the world. I, Qin Shihuang of the Central Plains Dynasty,
, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty were both tyrants. The country was rich but the people were poor, but the country was still strong. What your Majesty did was by no means cruel, but a necessary means to govern the country!"
Wanyan Agu shook his head: "But our Kingdom of Jin is no better than yours in the Central Plains, occupying thousands of miles of fertile land. Can what you say come true?"
Du Chong did not expect that these barbarians were not easy to deal with, so he could only go one step further and said: "Let me tell you, your majesty, in the humble opinion of the common people, there is no difference between Jin and Yan. Your majesty only needs to make each department profitable, and you will be able to achieve great governance!"
Wanyan Aguda raised his eyebrows: "How to make a profit?"
Du Chong lowered his head: "The common people are shallow and dare not speak nonsense. However, our army is strong and powerful. We should rely on this to conquer the world!"
Wanyan Aguda looked at this person with intense eyes, and suddenly said: "Gou'er, what do you think of this person?"
Wanyan Wu was a little surprised when he begged to buy.
I like it, but it's not such a national event. How old is a kid?
Wanyan Aguda is another idea.
He always felt a sense of uncertainty about Du Chong, but he was unwilling to give up.
After all, Zhang Dun and his entourage, who were kidnapped by Wanyan Gao, have resisted and refused to give in. Later, the Shanhaiguan captivity failed, and the culprit Qin Hui was immediately executed after being caught. Emperor Yan specially ordered that his head be hung to show to the public as a warning. Such behavior was the behavior of Yan.
Ting's most cruel time.
His wife Wang and his accomplice Wan Qixin were punished to build the Forbidden City. No amnesty would exempt them from their crimes. They had to do the hardest and heaviest work every day. If they built the Great Wall, they might be able to save one or two, but it is impossible to save them by building the Forbidden City.
Yes, you can only work until you die.
As a result, there were very few scholars who could go north to seek refuge with the Jin Kingdom. Du Chong had to go through hard work and luck to reach Kaijing successfully. Naturally, Wanyan Aguda could not abandon it at will, so he hoped to borrow Wanyan Gou to come.
Decide.
The more he rules the country, the more he admires the cultural heritage of the Han people. When he treats Zhao Gou so well, he also subconsciously values his identity as the prince of Zhao Song.
Of course, under normal circumstances, Zhao Ji's eldest son Zhao Huan should be chosen, but Zhao Huan is ten years old and hates the Jin people for killing his father. There is no guarantee that he will not deliberately lie, so he trusts the innocent Gou'er more.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Little Wanyan Gou didn't know that he had become a divination tool invisibly, so he jumped down, walked around Du Chong carefully, and shouted: "Uncle Huang, Gou'er
I think this person is a loyal minister!"
Wanyan Wu Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, Wanyan Aguda smiled and said: "Okay! Since Gou'er said so, Uncle Huang will reuse him!"
Du Chong was overjoyed: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Wanyan Agu said calmly: "This is your old master, the legitimate son of the late Emperor of the Song Dynasty, and you are still disrespectful!"
Du Chong was shocked. He really thought that Wan Yangou was the queen's son, so he quickly bowed down and said, "Thank you... Thank you so much, young prince!"
"This is a good title. Gou'er will be the young prince from now on!"
Wanyan Aguda laughed, waved Du Chong to retreat, held the child and doted on him for a while, then patted his little shoulder: "Go, practice martial arts well, and when you grow up, fight the Yan people for me, Dajin!"
"oh!
"
Xiao Wanyangou responded solemnly, ran out in a hurry, and went to practice martial arts with great interest.
When only the two top rulers were left in the tent, Wanyan Wu begged: "Brother, what was Du Chong's last words..."
Wanyan Aguda raised his hand: "I have already considered that I have to listen to the words of this Southern Dynasty scholar, and I cannot listen to everything. However, this person does have some talents that can be put to use, so he can serve in the Southern Academy!"
Wanyan Wu begged to buy: "Yes!"
The two began to correct the memorials and discuss with each other. When today's government affairs were basically completed, Wanyan Wu Qimai stood up and saluted: "Brother, I still have some matters at home..."
Wanyan Aguda raised his brows and said displeasedly: "Go back and listen to those monks reciting sutras and chanting Buddha?"
Wanyan Wu was a little embarrassed when he begged for money: "Buddhism is very effective in appeasing various tribes. Under the persuasion of Zen Master Zhiqing, all the monasteries in the former Goryeo were willing to open their doors..."
"No need to say it!"
The Emperor of the Jin Kingdom has never had a good impression of Buddhism, but compared to his immaturity at that time, he thought that faith was just a simple faith. Now he has realized the benefits of Buddhism for governance. He did not stop it, but said with some displeasure: "I agree.
Monks spread faith in the country, and you can also guide various groups to believe in Buddhism, but don’t listen to those evil words yourself and lose your blood!”
Wanyan Wu Qimai immediately said: "Brother, please rest assured, I will never lose my blood and will fight to the death with the Yan people! It's just..."
Wanyan Aguda frowned: "Just what?"
Wanyan Wu Qimai whispered: "That Taoist Lin is going to fight again. Last time, he forced Fushi Temple to burn the classics and the monks to return to secular life. Now he is here again, and the people in the temples are panicked..."
Wanyan Aguda said directly: "We, Dajin, have established a country by force. Even religion must be the same. If the monks can't fight with each other, don't think about the court favoring them. Let them find their own way. Only by winning the battle can they gain respect!"
Wanyan Wu had no choice but to say, "Yes!"
"Let's go back!"
Wanyan Aguda watched his younger brother bow and leave, snorted a few times, returned to the palace, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
Because the back of an immortal Taoist figure stands tall, and his graceful and immortal figure seems to be able to ride on the wind and fly up to the sky at any time.
The Emperor of the Jin Kingdom stepped forward and saluted with respect: "Taoist Master Lin!"
Lin Lingsu turned around, raised her palms in salute, and said in a neutral tone: "Your Majesty the Golden Emperor!"
Since meeting this person, the other party has never had a good look on him, but Wanyan Aguda actually likes this kind of integrity. In addition, he has something to ask for, so he politely said: "I hope the Taoist priest will pass on my thunder method. If I can achieve some success,
, it is decreed that the state master should be enshrined and the Shenxiao sect should be enshrined as the state religion!"
Lin Lingsu said: "Your Majesty's heart towards Taoism is very gratifying to me. However, the Thunder Technique cannot be learned by ordinary people. Although Your Majesty has the talent for cultivation, he must do it step by step!"
Wanyan Agu thought of the majesty of the thunderclap in "Zuo Ming's" wave, and gritted his teeth: "No matter how difficult it is, I will learn it, and I hope the Taoist Master will teach it!"
Lin Lingsu said: "In that case, let's start with meditation..."
then.
The Crown Prince of Jin prostrated himself in front of the Buddha statue, clasped his hands together, and said with a pious expression: "My Buddha is compassionate!"
The Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin was sitting in front of the Taoist, learning to meditate, with a focused look on his face: "Supreme Lord!"
The faith of the Central Plains took over the Kingdom of Jin!
