Shang Dingtian walked out of the so-called palace in Shanbei Kingdom, which was not grand and magnificent. As he walked, he turned around and said to an old man in a Confucian shirt behind him: "Second brother, your yard is indeed a bit shabby...Does second brother know that?"
Sooner or later I will be surrounded by you, why don’t we just stop building construction projects?”
The top genius is less than forty years old. He has a tall and tall figure. He wears a bright yellow five-clawed golden dragon robe and yellow boots. However, he does not wear the golden crown symbolizing the throne on his head. Although his appearance cannot be said to be handsome, he has
A different kind of flying spirit.
The old man walking behind him snorted and said: "Brother is right, you should treat the people with benevolent policies. Large-scale construction projects waste people and money, so what if you build a magnificent palace? It is just a hardship for the people."
The person speaking was none other than Shang Zhenyuan, the emperor of Shanbei Kingdom. His Shanbei Kingdom was destroyed by Shang Dingtian just ten days ago. But his face didn't seem to have any annoyance or anger, on the contrary, there was a little...
Relief. He is indifferent by nature and is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He is especially fond of music. He would often sit cross-legged on a boulder and play the piano. He is not pretending to be lofty and reclusive, but he really likes the kind of music under the trees on the top of the mountain.
The feeling of playing the piano.
"Second brother, what the eldest brother said is right, but don't you think, as an emperor, if you don't have a way to show your status, how can the people obey you? Benevolent government? If the people are spoiled by your benevolent government, second brother, there is nothing right.
Your respect as an emperor is nothing more than being used to dealing with some mobs."
"Strong words!"
Shang Zhenyuan said angrily: "Don't come here to talk nonsense and ridicule me just because you think you won. When it comes to the love of the people, you will never be as good as my elder brother, or even as much as me!"
Shang Dingtian smiled and said: "The people love eldest brother? That's my second brother. You haven't seen what the Shannan Kingdom is like. The eldest brother's Shannan Kingdom army fought with my men and was defeated repeatedly. Who wouldn't say that the eldest brother is weak? He
Before leading an army to go on an expedition, one must first divination the stars and then decide whether to send troops according to the instructions from heaven. If the divination predicts a serious disaster, the army that has finally been assembled will immediately disband and go back to standby. If this is repeated over and over again, how can the army gain morale?"
"Third brother, how can you understand my brother's careful study of the astrology? Immortal masters have learned from ancient times to the present, but you are the only one who has chosen this military book. Instead of seeking a way to govern the world, you have chosen a strategy for troubled times. You are confused!"
"Confused?"
Shang Dingtian sneered: "Do you think there will be no war in this world?"
Shang Zhenyuan said seriously: "It is precisely because of people like you that there are constant disputes in the world!"
"Second brother is so wrong!"
Shang Dingtian stopped and said: "As long as people have desires in their hearts, there will be disputes. Doesn't the second brother think that people's basic necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation are not desires? Poor people have no rice to cook, so they exchange children for food, in order to fill their stomachs.
Even flesh and blood can be devoured. Is this considered desire? Fighting for a mouthful of food, even killing people, is this considered a dispute? For money, for power, for Meiji, nothing can cause disputes? "
He asked Shang Zhenyuan seriously: "Second brother, please tell me, what is the color of the human heart?"
"Of course it's red!"
"wrong!"
Shang Dingtian: “It’s black!”
"Since ancient times, and even in the future, people's hearts have been dark. If there were no people in this world, only wild beasts would have a natural order. Elks eat grass, tigers eat meat, and each has its own way. But people eat grass,
People eat meat, and even eat people. It seems that people are establishing order, but in fact the order is destroyed by the human heart. The human heart is like a bottomless black hole, money, power, status, beauty, all these things can't be filled! As long as there are people
...There will be strife!"
Shang Zhenyuan asked: "You mean to say that wild animals are stronger than humans?"
Shang Dingtian asked back: "Tiger poison will not eat its children. People, not to mention children, can kill their parents and slaughter their brothers for the desire in their hearts. What else can't be done by humans? What qualifications do people have to look down on beasts?"
Shang Zhenyuan sighed: "So extreme, I really don't know how to save you."
Shang Dingtian raised his head and said: "People in this world start disputes because of various desires. The immortal master saw through the darkness, so he left several volumes of military books. It's just that the immortal master is humble and generous, and only defends but does not attack. Isn't this
Empowering the evildoers? If you want to have no disputes in the world, it is absolutely unreasonable to stick to it. If someone bullies me, I will hit him back until it hurts. He is afraid and he will not dare to bully others again. For those who wantonly start bullying others
Those who fight must be made to taste the pain of war."
Shang Dingtian paused and said: "Let the world feel pain, and the thought of war will make them terrified and sleepless at night. Could it be that relying on the eldest brother's astrological calculations and the second brother's elegance and humility can still make them suffer?"
"How dare you insist on the immortal master! Third child, you are hopeless!"
Shang Dingtian turned back and glanced at Shang Zhenyuan meaningfully, sighed and said: "You don't believe in the truth in this world. In this world, maybe...he is the only one who is the same as I think."
"who is he?"
"King of Han Liu Ling!"
Shang Dingtian raised his chin and said: "Although Quanzhou and his party returned in defeat, I heard a wise saying. The King of Han once said that ending troubled times is not something that can be done by benevolent or good people. It is better for me, a butcher, to take a stab at it.
Kill with one sword and bring peace to the world."
Shang Dingtian smiled boldly: "With one strike and one strike, the world will be at peace! How majestic! How mighty!"
Shang Zhenyuan shook his head and said: "Can't you see that the King of Han treated the people with benevolent policies? If the King of Han had been militaristic, how could the people love and respect them? In the battle of Quanzhou, the people waved flags and shouted for the Han army to send food and water. Can't you see
Not yet?"
"First be violent, then be kind."
Shang Dingtian smiled and said: "This is the way to govern the world."
The two people were talking when suddenly a chaotic sound came from outside. Shang Dingtian frowned slightly and asked: "What happened outside?"
One of the guards hurriedly ran out to take a look, then ran back quickly, knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, there is a rough and treacherous person who broke into the palace. The guards have captured him, but this person yelled that it was wrong."
He is your Majesty's minister and has something important to report to Your Majesty. The general of the Imperial Guard sent someone to arrest him, but this man was very brave and injured several of the Imperial Guards. Now he has surrendered and is being taken down for questioning."
Shang Dingtian frowned and said: "In the palace, people can break in at will. How do the guards do things? Go! Tell the general of the guards to go to the Criminal Office to get twenty military sticks!"
"According to the order!"
The guard responded and walked out. When he reached the main entrance, he was suddenly stopped by Shang Dingtian: "Let's bring people in. I want to see who is so bold."
The guards hurriedly went out and ordered the people outside to bring the noisy man in. Two guards escorted a black, thin and stocky man into the palace gate. As soon as the man entered the door, he saw Shang Dingtian suddenly going crazy.
He struggled like crazy: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Xiaohu has important military information to report!"
"Xiaohu? Is it really you? Let him go and let him come over!"
Shang Dingtian recognized Xiaohu and immediately ordered the guards to release him.
Xiaohu's body was covered with wounds scraped by thorns, his face was covered with a thick layer of dust, his clothes were in tatters, and his feet were covered in blood. Every step he took would leave traces on the bluestone pavement.
A dazzling bloody footprint. He struggled to run for a few steps and suddenly fell to the ground. He raised his head and roared: "Your Majesty, get ready quickly. Tens of thousands of Han troops have already landed at Bali!"
After saying this, Xiaohu fell down and fainted.
Shang Dingtian was shocked when he heard this, and then his face turned ugly. He expected that with the domineering temperament of Han King Liu Ling, sooner or later he would build a navy to attack Liuqiu. But he thought he had at least a year and a half left
At that time, I never expected that the Han army would arrive so quickly! How many ships would be needed to transport tens of thousands of Han troops? Recruiting ships, fishermen, and raising materials and equipment. How could the Han army finish such a complicated task in such a short period of time?
"Quick! Wake him up!"
Shang Zhenyuan was even more panicked than Shang Dingtian. He ran over and pulled up Xiaohu, who was already unconscious, and ordered loudly.
Shang Dingtian took a few steps back dejectedly, looking up to the sky and sighing.
"Come here, send someone to Shannan Kingdom to inform the King of Shannan that the Han army is coming, and then you can mobilize troops to help!"
Shang Dingtian took a deep breath and ordered.
"Second brother...after eldest brother comes, you two will go to the place we built ten years ago."
Shang Zhenyuan was stunned and asked subconsciously: "What about you?"
Shang Dingtian smiled, gradually straightened his chest and said: "I have spent half my life studying military tactics and battle formations, how can I retreat without fighting?"
Two miles away, there is a dense forest on the top of a mountain.
Di Fuzhou turned around and ordered: "Send the drawings of the places you passed along the way back to Dazhai. Sun Jinman, do you and I go into the city to have a look? Do you dare?"
Sun Jin snorted nonchalantly and said: "Look down on me? I... won't go!" (To be continued)
