Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 302
Li Chenggui kowtowed repeatedly to apologize, his forehead was broken, and then he crawled out of the front hall in fear.

"Servant, wipe off the blood." After coming out, Jin Tao handed him a handkerchief.

Li Chenggui took the handkerchief, pressed it on his forehead, and murmured: "These Highnesses of the Celestial Dynasty are really terrifying..."

"That's right, especially Jin Wang Yan Wang and Chu Wang." Jin Tao said deeply, "They are both the embryos of Ming emperors and sage kings. It can be seen that the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty is just at the time of prosperity."

"Yes." Li Chenggui sighed, "It's because I went too smoothly today, I lost my head, and I shouldn't have such unreasonable thoughts."

"Servant, there is something I don't know if I should say it or not." Jin Tao said softly.

"Speak." Li Chenggui nodded, it is easier for a person to listen to the words after touching the blood on the forehead.

"If you have a chance, you should really go to Daming. Only then will you know exactly how small Goryeo is and how big the Celestial Dynasty is." Jin Tao said softly while walking with his hands behind his back:

"We, Goryeo, are doomed to gain room for development only during the interval between dynasties in the Central Plains. But once the celestial dynasty is established and efforts are made to govern, it will bring us back to our original shape.

"What's more cruel is that it has nothing to do with whether our monarchs are good or not, and sometimes, the stronger the monarchs, the more they will harm our Goryeo." Jin Tao said clearly: "Such examples abound, so I don't need to repeat them Bar?"

"Yes." Li Chenggui nodded.Let's not talk about it, let's just say that the "Guimao Rebellion" was abolished by the Yuan Dynasty because of the former king's rebellion against the Yuan Dynasty, although Cui Ying finally led them to defeat the 1-yuan intervening army.

However, in the "Guimao Rebellion", more than half of the population of Goryeo died, but it has always been kept secret by the government and the opposition.

"Brother, what do you think we should do with the Celestial Empire?" Li Chenggui asked for advice.

"Mencius once said that only a wise person can serve a big country from a small country, so King Tai of Zhou once served Xiaofeng, and Gou Jian once served Wu. Those who can serve a big country from a small country are those who fear the destiny. Those who fear the destiny can Keep his country. Just like the "Poetry" says: "Fear the might of the sky, and protect it at the time." Jin Tao replied:
"The Celestial Dynasty has countless vassal states and states, just like parents treat many children, they will definitely reward the most obedient and punish the most rebellious, so as to educate the majority.

"So the direction of our efforts should be to strive to be the most obedient child of the Celestial Dynasty. Then we will find that the more obedient we are, the more magnanimous the Celestial Dynasty will be. The so-called 'Korean affairs are more polite, and the Chinese character is more benevolent'" is the most Ideal condition."

"Is the father kind and the son filial?" Li Chenggui felt a little uncomfortable.

"It's 'big things, small things'..." Jin Tao corrected a sentence, then gave up: "Almost the same meaning."

"Then I understand." Li Chenggui nodded with a gloomy expression.

"Servant, you haven't seen it clearly yet, why did your highnesses choose you?!" Seeing that he still couldn't let go, Jin Tao finally couldn't help but increase his tone.

"Why?" This is actually what Li Chenggui wants to know the most.

"Because you're an outsider, why don't you rely on the heavens to rule the capital?!" Jin Tao stomped his feet and said, "Haven't you seen it clearly? Only the most intimate and knowledgeable people can secure the ruling seat. You are not kind to your father and filial to your son. Will you recognize your father, do you still want to repeat the mistakes of Li Renren and Cui Ying?"

"Oh..." Li Chenggui seemed to be hit hard, especially the last two sentences, which made him sober all of a sudden, and hurriedly bowed deeply: "Thank you sir for teaching me, Li Chenggui and Li Jia can have a future, thanks to Mr. Give!"

"It's good that the servant understands." Jin Tao quickly avoided, not accepting his courtesy, "Kaijing and Nanjing are separated by thousands of miles, even if the father is kind and the son is filial, how many times a year can there be? Most of the time, the servant is still happy !"

"It's not the kindness of the father and the filial piety of the son, it's 'big things and small characters'!" Li Chenggui corrected him seriously: "'Great things with courtesy' will be our highest standard in the future!"

"The waiter is wise!" Jin Tao smiled gratifiedly, a child can be taught.

"Excellent advice, sir!" Li Chenggui cupped his hands in praise, and the two looked at each other and laughed.

When the two returned to Dutang, they called Zheng Mengzhou to the conference hall.

When Zheng Meng came in on Monday, he felt that the relationship between the two had changed.Just like the men and women who have slept with each other, their words and deeds are intimate...

This made him vigilant, obviously he came first.

"Old Zheng, sit whatever you want." Li Chenggui said carelessly, pointing to the top chairs on both sides of the long table.

"I'll just stand, this is not a place to sit casually." Zheng Mengzhou pointed to the gauze on Li Chenggui's forehead and said, "Is the waiter injured?"

"This?" Li Chenggui pointed to his forehead and said, "I kowtowed myself."

"Are you two going to the guest house?" Zheng Mengzhou's heart tightened.

"It's not intentional to leave you behind." Jin Tao said with a smile: "It's really because you are too old to come out in the birthday palace, we can't wait."

"The Queen Mother is terrified..." Zheng Mengzhou just wanted to tell a lie, but suddenly realized that this would completely alienate him from them.It is unwise.

He sighed and said: "The queen mother wants to abolish the king and replace him with a clan. I tried hard to persuade him for a long time, but I still can't persuade him. I can only ask the opinions of the highnesses first. The queen mother asked me to invite the highnesses to the banquet. "

"Haha, let me tell you, Lao Zheng is a smart man, so he must be able to understand clearly." Jin Tao and Li Chenggui looked at each other and smiled.

"That's right, come and sit down." Li Chenggui stood up himself, pressed Zheng Mengzhou on his seat and said, "You will sit here from now on."

"I, isn't this appropriate?" Zheng Mengzhou wanted to get up, but how could he get up?

"Why isn't it appropriate? You can order Confucian scholars all over the world, and you are the most trusted person of the Empress Dowager. You deserve this position!" Li Chenggui said in a deep voice, "Now the three of us must unite sincerely to stabilize the situation. Give in."

"The waiter..." Zheng Mengzhou sat down in trepidation and half pulled his butt.

"I'll sit here." Li Chenggui walked to the top chair, Dama Jindao sat down and said.

"Then Cui Yuanjun?" Zheng Mengzhou asked again, and his face changed after speaking: "Is this the result of the attendant going to the guest house?"

"Your Highness means that Cui Ying is Li Renren's accomplice and personally led troops to kill them. They must be severely punished." Jin Tao said in a deep voice.

"Korea can't live without Cui Yuanjun!" Zheng Mengzhou lost his voice: "The queen mother will never agree. Didn't you persuade me?"

Li Chenggui pointed to his forehead and said nothing.Let Zheng Mengzhou mistakenly think that this is the result of persuasion...

"He wants to kill His Highness, can His Highness let them go?"

"He doesn't know, how many His Highnesses are in the mission..."

"Can you forgive me for killing the mission?" Li Chenggui asked in a cold voice, and then said definitively, "Those who protect him are accomplices!"

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu has been very merciful, and only let us hand over the person to them." Jin Tao also said: "Old Zheng, we have to know the good and the bad."

"Oh, okay..." Zheng Mengzhou felt the comfort of the second position, and finally agreed: "Let's go see the Queen Mother."
