Chapter 158 Passing by history

Chapter 158: Passing by history

"However, after many years of fighting, the north is in chaos. People's lives are very difficult. No one in the world wants to fight. They just want to live a peaceful life for a few days." The emperor's tone softened, losing his previous pride, "I want to completely wipe out the northern tribes in one go.

, however, the ministers of the DPRK wrote again, and they should be taken care of slowly. I also feel that Dayan is tired and should be repaired, but I also feel that time is running out. If the emperor changes in the future, I can't guarantee that the next emperor will still be as ambitious as me.

do not know what to do?"

How can a Taoist give an answer?

It would be great if we could accomplish a great feat, but behind great achievements there are often countless miserable lives.

Looking at these great achievements in history, the perspective has been different. The places that cannot bear to be seen have been erased by the long river of time. What remains are all the shining parts. But only by being in it at this time can you know that every step of history has gone through.

It is paved by countless vivid people.

In his view, there are three types of war.

One kind must be fought, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Fighting for a while is for longer peace. If you fight this war, you will gain more peace. If you don't fight this war, there will be no peace for a long time.

One kind is not necessary, and the pros and cons are difficult to distinguish.

Some people say it should be beaten, some people say it shouldn't be beaten.

Some people say it's good to fight, some people say it's not good to fight.

Different people stand from different angles and give different answers.

One is a pointless war.

Either the war was started at the wrong time, with too little chance of winning, or it was unnecessary in the first place and was just provoked by the emperor to satisfy his selfish desires and personal thoughts, which would be of no benefit to the country or the people.

If the current emperor launches another war against the north, Song You actually can't tell which one it is. Is it necessary to fight, or is it optional to fight, or is this emperor purely trying to satisfy some of his own desires or win?

He had just launched his famous name as an emperor through the ages. He actually didn’t know whether the war should be fought now or in later generations. He would win or lose at this time, and whether it would exhaust the country’s power and usher in decline.

What's more, no matter what the outcome is, countless lives may be lost. Taoists are just Taoists, neither emperors nor politicians, so they really shouldn't say too much.

Just like reincarnation in the underworld.

Song You could only tell the truth: "This matter is of great importance. I have very little knowledge and understanding, so it is really difficult to explain."

"That's all."

The emperor was a little disappointed and sighed secretly.

Knowing that his ancestors relied on Fulong Guan to establish a dynasty and establish a country, and also relied on Fulong Guan to relieve the crisis of people's livelihood and usher in ZTE, if the person in front of him could give him advice, it would undoubtedly give him a lot of confidence, but he also knew that Fulong Guan

Taoist Longguan has a weak nature. Unless the people of the world are in crisis or it is something that has happened to him, he rarely interferes in political affairs, so he doesn't ask many questions.

"I still have one last doubt."

"Speaking."

"Sir must also be proficient in fortune telling and divination." The emperor said, "At today's banquet, I had a conversation with Chen Ziyi. I wonder what you think of this person?"

"I see……"

Song You understood immediately and said: "It turns out that Your Majesty invited General Chen to come here tonight so that I can see General Chen."

"Exactly."

The emperor looked forward with a calm face: "I have always used people without trust and without trust. However, Chen Ziyi's military exploits were too high. People in the court often wrote letters to make excuses. Either they said that he was self-respecting, or that he was treasonous.

My heart, I know in my heart, is all fake."

"oh?"

"However, news came back from the border that Chen Ziyi's power in the army was unparalleled for a while. The soldiers and generals under his command only regarded the general, not the emperor. Even Chen Ziyi had great prestige among the people in the northern Jianghu. Now it is like the imperial court is spending money to reward silver and grain.

I support Chen Ziyi's private army, but I feel that even if there are discrepancies, they are probably true."

"So His Majesty summoned him to Beijing?"

"Firstly, I wanted to see what he was thinking, and secondly, I also wanted to use him again, so I ordered him to be summoned. It's good that he returned to Beijing happily. Haha, he really fulfilled the storyteller's words. He is full of courage.

"

"I see."

Song You was in a daze for a moment.

It turns out that the young general whom I heard from the storyteller back then has become so great now?

At this time, the emperor asked again: "I wonder if you, sir, can tell if there is something strange about this person?"

It should be something like "anti-gu" or "imperial appearance".

"Your Majesty has misunderstood. In fact, I am not proficient in fortune-telling and divination." Song You said, "I can neither see what Dayan will be like in the future, nor can I see anyone's luck. Your Majesty, if you want to ask me whether General Chen has any

If you think otherwise, or if he has any dignity beyond the norm, you’ve got the wrong person.”

"Sir, don't you understand divination?"

"don't know."

"How do you know, sir, that there are high-quality seeds overseas?"

"guess."

"If you weren't quite sure, you wouldn't ask Yan Xian to look for it, right?"

"It has its own way."

"I see……"

When the emperor heard this, he was unwilling to force him any more.

Just another disappointment.

"I heard that the Imperial Master is good at this." Song You asked, "Why doesn't Your Majesty ask the Imperial Master?"

"I have also talked with the Imperial Preceptor. It's just that the Imperial Preceptor loves reputation. Unless there is an emergency, he usually only gives good advice that benefits the country and the people. Regarding this kind of thing, the Imperial Preceptor has always been reluctant to say more."

"Don't say anything?"

"Sir is a human being from Fulongguan. I have nothing to hide from you. When I talked with the Imperial Preceptor about Chen Ziyi, the Imperial Preceptor once said that Chen Ziyi is a loyal person. However, the Imperial Preceptor also said that Chen Ziyi was in the army.

His power and power are indeed unparalleled, and all the soldiers and generals in the army obey him. I know both of these two points."

"I heard that Anjifang and the nursing home were proposed by the National Master?"

"Exactly."

The so-called Anjifang, nursing home, and Luzeyuan are all welfare institutions these days.

Anjifang is a medical aid institution in Changjing, mainly used to provide medical services to poor people who are sick. Residential homes are equivalent to nursing homes and orphanages in later generations. Most of them are also separate, and the part of the nursing home is also called Anjifang.

Laofang, Anhuaifang, and the part that cares for children are also called Salesian Bureau. Luzeyuan is a public welfare funeral institution, which mainly buries ownerless bones.

The establishment of these government-run social welfare institutions was proposed by the National Master, but it also shows how much Dayan paid attention to people's livelihood.

They rely on Dayan's highly developed economic level, highly complete social structure and the ruling class's attitude of attaching great importance to people's livelihood. Not only have they never been seen before, but perhaps after Dayan's demise, the next dynasty will not be able to inherit these characteristics of Dayan.

, these institutions that represent civilization will not be continued.

When Song You heard about these organizations, he was actually a little shocked.

In such an era, many people's impression of it seems to be gloomy and cannibalistic. The upper class does not regard the lower class people as human beings. However, it is difficult to imagine that in such a supposedly dark era, those in power would actually set up

Such a humanistic care organization is used to care for the people at the bottom.

If a national teacher can do this, his merits are not small.

Of course, relying on various restrictions, the power of these welfare institutions is also limited.

Anjifang cannot help all the poor patients in Changjing, so there will be people who have been infected by evil spirits but still cannot receive medical treatment. Nursing homes cannot care for all the orphans, old and young in Changjing, there are still old people living on the streets, and there are still people

The baby girl was thrown into the river. Luzeyuan could bury all the ownerless bones in the ground, but at most it could only find a place to bury them and provide them with the most basic dignity.

However, as long as Anjifang treats a patient, the nursing home raises an orphan or an old man, and Luzeyuan buries a corpse, it is considered a meritorious deed.

Don't neglect doing good deeds because they are small.

And back to the matter of Chen Ziyi, maybe the Imperial Preceptor knows what will happen to Chen Ziyi in the future, maybe the Imperial Preceptor does not know, but the Imperial Preceptor who is good at divination cannot give an answer, and Song You can't give an answer.

"Your Majesty, please send it here. I hope your Majesty will rest soon and the dragon will be in good health. I also hope that Dayan will last longer and the people will live and work in peace and contentment."

"I would like to lend you my kind words, sir."

"I'll take my leave."

"Sir, walk slowly."

The Taoist got on the carriage prepared by the emperor.

The cat jumped up after him and got into the car. He raised his head and looked left and right, as if he found it strange.

"thorough!"

The horses' hooves are clattering, and the wheels are rattling.

The cat became more curious and stuck his head out to observe.

The Taoist squinted his eyes and sat still.

Taking advantage of his status, his perspective is naturally higher, and he can easily see things that are difficult for ordinary people to see.

Just like tonight——

This prosperous peak dynasty, the ambitious emperor in his later years, the famous general who has never failed to conquer the world, the emperor's suspicion, the general's response, the national advisor in the middle...maybe anything that will happen later or is happening now.

Everything will become an important part of history, and he is in this mountain at this time, so close to history, but he can't see it completely.

This feeling is really amazing.

What's so wonderful is that it can't be put into words.

In short, no matter what happens in the future, the emperor guesses and kills famous generals, the emperor trusts famous generals and uses them, the emperor conquers the north, victory will be an eternal feat, defeat will weaken the empire, or the emperor gives up the campaign, or even many years later, General Chen rebels, Song Dynasty

It's worthwhile to take this trip to the palace tonight, to pass by this major event in history, and to watch the writing of historical chapters with your own eyes.

Thousands of years later, countless people will be full of longing and curiosity about this era. Countless people will read and write stories about this time, recite famous poems written in this era, and debate about the eternal famous general.

Are there any selfish motives for debating the merits and demerits of this emperor...

Thousands of years ago, Taoists witnessed it with their own eyes.

It seems like I have become a part of the history books.

When he came back to his senses, the cat had stepped on his legs and brought his head so close to him that his mouth felt like it was about to hit his chin.

"Taoist priest."

"Um?"

"what's on your mind?"

"you do not understand."

"oh……"

The cat nodded obediently, stared at him again and asked, "What is this?"

"what is what?"

"What are we in there?"

"We often see horse-drawn carriages on the road." The Taoist explained patiently, "It's just that the ones on the road don't look as good as this one."

"Why don't we buy one of these? Put it on the horse so we can sit in it and go."

Cat's eyes were full of confusion.

Facing her gaze, many answers flashed through the Taoist's mind, including "That way I wouldn't have left by myself" and "the carriage could only drive on the road and not climb mountains", but they all felt that they could not convince her. She might come up with many ways.

Respond to him with different words, or ask a lot of questions.

So after thinking about it, he said:

"That will make the horse very tired."

"Yes..."

Mao'er nodded immediately, convinced.
