Chapter 468: The Emperor’s Heart Needles to the Bottom of the Sea

 When Wei Tongguang went to inform Jia Lian, he had already roughly guessed the emperor's attitude towards Jia Lian.

So when he met Jia Lian again, although Wei Tongguang's attitude was still lukewarm, he still revealed some information to Jia Lian without revealing anything.

For example, the emperor wrote in the study room in Dongnuan Pavilion.

For example, King Zhongshun just left.

.

Jia Lian knew that the reason why Wei Tongguang could sit in the position of commander of the Yulin Guards was that he must be a shrewd and cautious person.

Such a person must have a purpose when speaking.

There is definitely no nonsense in such a person's mouth.

The words he spoke are not only the meaning of the message itself, but also the hidden information behind those words, and the reason why he said these words must also bring an attitude message.

At least Jia Lian can hear it:

First, the emperor is in a good mood at this time.

Second, the emperor is not disgusted with himself.

Third, it is precisely based on the above two points that people like Wei Tongguang are willing to sell themselves well.

But even though Wei Tongguang did not give him this information for no reason, and it was more or less "snobbish", Jia Lian was still very grateful to Wei Tongguang.

After all, everyone in the world is here for profit. No one will be nice to you for no reason, and no one will sacrifice their own interests for you.

Those who can understand "human nature" are smart people.

People who give up their moral bottom line after being able to understand human nature are just "shrewd villains"

People who can understand human nature but still stick to their moral bottom line are already one of the few "smart and good people" in the world.

In Jia Lian's heart, he wants to be a person who, after being able to understand human nature, can not only stick to the moral bottom line, but also find ways to punish evil and promote good. Maybe he can be called a "kind and smart person with an edge."

.

.

Jia Lian was equally calm.

After all, this is the palace, and who knows how many pairs of eyes are watching everyone's words and deeds, openly and secretly. If you are not careful, you may lose your head.

"Tao Te Ching" says:

"When people are engaged in work, they often fail after a few successes. If you are not careful about the end, you will end up as carefully as you started, and there will be no failure."

There is no one who does great things who does not understand the word "prudent".

And there are no people who do great things who don’t understand the word "bold".

Today, Jia Lian is holding back to do something "bold", but he has to be "cautious", otherwise, it will be disgusting if he fails and fails.

.

Walking along Yongxiang, when passing a corner, the calm Jia Lian asked briefly in a low voice:

"The emperor hopes that the Jia family will be completely defeated?"

Wei Tongguang remained calm and said briefly in a low voice:

"I'm afraid of four bastards and eight lords."

As smart as Jia Lian, he understood instantly.

What the emperor was most worried about was that the other eight families of the Four Kings and Eight Gongs would come out to help the Jia family and become even more entwined.

At the next corner, before Jia Lian could speak, Wei Tongguang quietly whispered:

"After all, King Zhongshun is the emperor's biological brother."

Jia Lian immediately understood that this was Wei Tongguang telling him concisely and concisely: Don't catch King Zhongshun and chase him down, but understand that he is the emperor's biological brother, and don't make it difficult for the emperor.

The smart man immediately replied in a low voice:

"I understand, thank you Brother Wei for the tip."

From then on, the two of them had a tacit understanding and never spoke again. They entered the Yangxin Gate and went straight to the study room of Dongnuang Pavilion.

It was already sunset, and the red sunset fell on the corners of the palace wall, dyeing the leaden gray dusk clouds gathering in the distance a magnificent rose color.

The sunlight and sunset are as heavy and thick as the deep vermilion palace walls, and the glazed tiles on the roof of the palace also show off a strange golden-red color, which is breathtaking.

.

The emperor read the pile of confessions carefully and couldn't help but secretly cursed King Zhongshun as "a bastard who is so stupid and stupid".

No one told you to plot against the Jia family, but who told you to do such a thing that would make others feel guilty?

Moreover, what made Jia Lian cling to his heart was the fateful matter of King Zhongshun's corruption of "Gangchang Fundamentals".

As the king of a country, he knew that "the fundamental principles" are not only a matter of ethics and morals, but also the political and ethical principles that have allowed the monarchs of this land to rule the world since ancient times, and they are absolutely not allowed to be shaken in the slightest.
p>

But King Zhongshun is the emperor's younger brother after all. The emperor still has to find a way to protect his own face.

The emperor thought for a while, imitating the calm demeanor of his grandfather Emperor Taizong in his memory. He placed the confession in his hand on the table without comment and asked Jia Lian calmly:

"What do you think about this matter?"

.

Jia Lian sneered in his heart:

What do I think? Just watch you pretend to be stupid.

But you want to act stupid, and I don’t want to follow your lead.

Now that I have made up my mind to come here, I will sing this drama to the end!

Didn’t achieve the goal? Sorry, I can’t stop!

.

Jia Lian raised his head, his face full of righteousness, and said loudly:

"Although I am not talented, I was not willing to study hard or take the scientific examination when I was young. However, I still have a good foundation in studying at home for ten years. I studied with a private school teacher to understand the principles, and I know that the ethics of ethics are the foundation of peace in the world.

Among the "Three Cardinal Guidelines", "The Ruler Guidelines for Ministers" clearly stipulates the righteousness of the ruler and his ministers. "Loyalty" is the most important thing in all hierarchies and master-slave relationships in the world. You can lose your life, but you must not be unfaithful.
Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trust are the "Five Constants", which are the code of conduct that regulates the human relationship between king and minister, father and son, brothers, husband and wife, friends, etc. Betrayal of the king and father is a taboo of being unkind and unjust.

Only with such patriarchal ethics and moral constraints can there be an orderly hierarchy of superiors and inferiors, and clear and insurmountable hierarchies. In this way, the family, country, and world can have long-term peace and stability.

But He Jin, the steward of King Zhongshun, dared to incite his servant, Lai Da, to be unfaithful and unjust to his lord. He did not know who directed him, and even did things that deceived and harmed his lord. This violated the laws of nature and human ethics. How is it any different from rebellion?

/p>

How can such corruption of ethical principles be easily spared?

Moreover, this matter involves the brothers of the Tian family, and the impact is even more immeasurable. If the Tian family cannot set an example for all people, how can they educate the people of the world?



At this moment, Jia Lian seemed to be possessed by Jia Zheng. He recited the "Three Guidelines and Five Permanent Feudal Codes of Ethics" that he had carefully prepared in advance. He was so clear-eyed and impassioned that he almost took out the declaration of joining the team that he had read in primary school in his previous life.

The energy.

.

Lord, minister, father, son, this was the foundation of the social order at that time.

The emperor understands better than anyone else that since his ministers must not be allowed to rebel against the emperor, he must not allow his servants to rebel against his master.

Otherwise, if everyone thinks that the emperor can take turns, wouldn't the world be in chaos? Then can he still sit on the throne under his butt?

Therefore, everything Jia Lian said must be correct.

King Zhongshun asked his steward He Jin to persuade Lai Da to harm his master, which shook the foundation that affected the stability of the throne.

You bastard is so stupid!

.

While the emperor was pondering, Jia Lian sighed again and added:

"If only He Jin and Lai Da knew about this matter, it would be fine for me to be dumb.

But they also used a pawnshop called "Wanfanghe" to cheat the Jia family's assets. The two of them often met at Wanfanghe pawnshop to have secret discussions. As a result, Wanfang, the pawnshop manager Ye Qiming and all the guys knew about it.

This matter is unlikely to be widely circulated outside.

Nowadays, I dare not delve into how many people know about it."

Jia Lian looked sad and distraught, but actually he was sneering in his heart:

Kill the heart first, then touch up the sword. Let me see what you, the emperor, do.
