Seven hundred and twentieth IX: The wolf rushes to the hog
The reason why Fang Jun could say this was that he had read an article "New Imperialist Strategy" before and was deeply impressed by it.
"Transforming China with trust" is an easy to understand sentence.
The ancient Chinese monarchs pursued the political ideal of "all barbarians serving as guests", and the prerequisite was to improve internal affairs, so as to achieve "the world is peaceful".
In other words, the success of His Majesty Li Er's early ethnic policy depends on the success of internal affairs, such as the establishment of dialogue mechanisms and power supervision mechanisms, advocating values such as clean government, frugality, and simplicity, paying attention to farmland and water conservancy construction, etc.; but more importantly or obvious What is true is that due to the success of internal affairs, the national strength has greatly increased, and the victory in successive conquests against the Turks, Tuyuhun, Gaochang, the Four Towns of Anxi, and Xue Yantuo in Mobei is exactly the effect of "controlling the barbarians and using power".
In other words, no matter how prosperous the Tang Dynasty's economy and culture were, no matter how much it promoted ethnic equality, if it always suffered defeats in foreign wars, it is really a question whether His Majesty Li Er can wear the "Khan of Heaven" hat...
Why do the barbarians obey you now?
Because your internal affairs are clean and your armament is strong, and I cannot defeat you, of course you have to be soft. It has nothing to do with benevolence, justice and morality.
but!
As long as one day your internal affairs are in chaos and your armaments are depleted, these barbarians will pounce on you and bite you to death in a matter of seconds.
At that time, you say to others: Brother, wait a minute! I was not unkind to you back then. I repaid evil with kindness and relocated to another country. How can you repay kindness with evil now?
hehe……
This is not the creativity of Chu Suiliang and his ilk. Historically, those so-called great Confucianists who spoke of benevolence, righteousness, morality and etiquette have emphasized the so-called Confucianism countless times. When the Central Plains had the upper hand, they adopted policies of leniency and compromise towards the border ethnic groups.
The results of it?
These barbarians slapped them in the face again and again.
As long as the Central Plains dynasty shows weakness, they will open their sharp claws and pounce on you!
As long as there is a chance, there will be a Jingkang shame!
Whenever I have a chance, I will come to Wu Huan Hua once!
However, the strange thing is that despite being slapped in the face time and time again, there are always such moral gurus popping up and continuing to advocate...
Transform China with faith, control the barbarians with power!
Create an everlasting empire foundation!
His Majesty Li Er found that his strategy could no longer be implemented.
Because even he himself has the urge to swallow back what he said before!
But... is it so easy to swallow your own words?
In the end, His Majesty Li Er did not make a decision and hastily announced the disbandment of the dynasty. The matter will be discussed later.
However, when he was leaving the court, he glanced at Fang Jun coldly and said, "Fang Jun stays, I have something to say." Then he walked away.
Fang Jun was left feeling suspicious and confused in the wind...
***********
The palace city has heavy towers and cornices, and the red doors and thin willows are slanting in the wind. Even if the sun shines brightly, it still looks a bit bleak and deep.
Why do almost all royal palaces have this extremely depressing feeling?
Fang Jun followed a chamberlain and walked into the palace step by step. Deep down in his heart, he was more worried about falling into an unknown situation. His Majesty Li Er's anger towards him had almost reached its peak today. Although he did not explode in the hall, Fang Jun But I don’t think this is due to the views he expressed that come from the 21st century.
Why did His Majesty Li Er want to keep him?
Could it be a White Tiger Festival performance?
He asked a chamberlain to take him to a secret place, and then falsely accused him of stealing state secrets. The three hundred axemen who were ambushing outside the door smelled that His Majesty Li Er had thrown a cup as a signal, and they all rushed out and showed Fang Jun's head to the public.
…
Ahem!
Fang Jun was also helpless because of his divergent nerves. His Majesty Li Er wanted to kill someone, so how much effort did he need?
After walking for a while in the palace, I turned a corner and the scenery suddenly changed. In front of me were white walls and black tiles, with carved beams and painted buildings. Looking in through the open inner palace door, I saw peonies blooming all over the place, with thousands of colors and colors vying for beauty. It was very different from before.
The solemn and solemn atmosphere of the city should be the residence of the palace family members.
This is not the Dragon Palace, I have never been here before.
Fang Jun was a little nervous. Without the White Tiger Festival Hall, could it be a beauty trap? He sent a palace concubine or a concubine to stage the concubine taking a bath, and he happened to see it. It turned into coveting the concubine with ulterior motives, let alone
Father Fang Xuanling, even if the King of Heaven comes, I will not touch him...
However, considering His Majesty Li Er's virtue of only taking advantage and never suffering losses, it seems that he would not be willing to spend such a large sum of money.
Again, killing Fang Jun is easier than squeezing an ant to death - to crush an ant, His Majesty Li Er needs to do it himself. To kill him, one sentence is enough...
The chamberlain led Fang Jun into the palace gate.
A breeze blew through the door, followed by a fragrance of grass and trees, soft and warm. Fang Jun couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips. He saw a little girl wearing a pink palace dress, like a butterfly, bathing
Running in the garden with lush flowers and trees under the bright spring sunshine.
She was holding a net bag in her hand, but she was chasing a real colorful butterfly. The butterfly danced among the flowers, left and right, up and down. The little girl could never catch it, but
Not worried, but rather bursting out with laughter like silver bells.
After chasing her, she walked around under a tall purple peony and happened to see Fang Jun standing at the palace gate, smiling at her.
The little girl cheered, ran over quickly, jumped into Fang Jun's arms, hooked her arms around his neck, and called out in a sweet voice: "Brother-in-law, hurry up and catch that butterfly!"
Fang Jun hugged her soft and light body, feeling warm and loving in his heart.
Looking at the butterfly dancing freely among the flowers, Fang Jun suddenly felt a little sad and said softly: "Why do we have to catch it? Sizi, look, it is playing freely and unrestrainedly, how wonderful it is.
!But if you get caught, locked up, or die, what’s the point?”
What he didn't say was that this butterfly is just like you...
This is a beautiful but short life, why not live happily and unrestrainedly?
The little princess of Jinyang blinked, tilted her head and thought for a while as if she understood, then said with a smile: "Since brother-in-law intercedes with it, then Si Zi won't catch it! Brother-in-law, can you tell Si Zi a story?"
Is telling stories to children popular these days?
Fang Jun looked at the little girl's bright, longing eyes, feeling pity in his heart.
No matter how much His Majesty Li Er dotes on her, she is a princess after all. Apart from His Majesty Li Er and Jin Wang Li Zhi, who is close to her, there is no one to play with her. Watch her happily chasing butterflies in the garden.
, in fact, is it not a kind of loneliness?
Fang Jun raised his hands, lifted Princess Jinyang's small body on his shoulders, and walked towards the garden.
Princess Jinyang was first startled by Fang Jun's movements and exclaimed. Then she became interested in this unprecedented position of being carried. She hugged Fang Jun's head nervously and shouted excitedly.
Xiao Miao, her little face is as cute as a red apple.
Fang Jun pretended to be arrogant as he walked and said: "When it comes to telling stories, His Highness Sizi has found the right person. Looking at all the living beings in the Tang Dynasty, when it comes to telling stories, if my Fang Er is the second best, then no one will dare to call himself
First!"
This is really not bragging. When it comes to the knowledge reserve in the head, even the most erudite and talented scholars of this era are not enough. Where are the channels for the dissemination and acceptance of knowledge? How many people in this era can read in a lifetime?
How many things have you heard about this book?
There is an elegant room in the center of the garden, surrounded by red flowers and swaying green trees. It is quiet, elegant and peaceful.
Fang Jun carried Princess Jinyang in, put her on a bench, and sat opposite her. He had just "battled with the Confucian scholars" in the Tai Chi Hall and wasted a lot of saliva. He was a little thirsty at this time.
I looked around but couldn't find the tea cup, so I couldn't help but feel slightly disappointed.
Si Zi was very smart. Seeing Fang Jun's expression, he asked, "Brother-in-law, are you thirsty?"
Fang Jun nodded and said, "Yes, why don't you have a maid here to serve you?"
Those maids and chambermaids are really generous enough to let His Majesty Li Er's sweetheart play in the garden. If there is even the slightest mistake, His Majesty Li Er will not be able to chop them up?
