Three Kingdoms New Malaysia Super League

Chapter 337
"Chao is ignorant, this matter... this matter is completely different from the rumors in the world. Chao really doesn't know, it turns out that it is so..." Ma Chao was already shocked by the facts Li Ru said at this time, but he still asked with a trace of doubt. He said: "The rumors in the world are not groundless. Why are the things in the court spread to the people, and they are so upside down?"

"My lord doesn't know that since Emperor Wu deposed all schools of thought and respected Confucianism alone, the only people in the world who control public opinion are those powerful gentry. Hundreds of years of development have already turned the big man into a puppet controlled by the gentry. In order to protect For the interests of the gentry, they naturally encouraged the three-inch tongue and the means of confusing black and white, so that the fools of the entire Han Dynasty only believed what they could hear..." Li Ru lamented, as if he was powerless to fight back against the ugly face of the gentry .

Ma Chao stunned, this situation was within his expectation.As early as in Fufeng, he had discussed matters of the gentry with the core figures of the entire group.It also determined the policy of the tribalization of warriors, and vigorously promoted various schools of thought and personality cultism to offset the impact of the gentry forces.At this moment, it seems that his strategies to plan for a rainy day are indeed not useless, but a magic weapon to win the war on another battlefield where there are no swords and guns!
"But even so, Chao still can't figure out why those scholars secretly communicated with Dong Zhuo about the composition of the song..."

"Does my lord think that they don't want to depose the young emperor?" Li Ru smiled secretly, with an indescribably cold and deep feeling: "It's time to abolish the young emperor. , Helped King Hongnong to go down to the palace, and proclaimed his ministers in the north. The queen mother was crying, and the ministers were sad, and no one dared to speak. Humph... At that time, the monarch and ministers really loved each other, but the world didn't think about it carefully. The person who abolished and established the young emperor was Dong Zhuo. ? That was the leader of the scholar group, and Yuan Kai, who was the assistant minister at the time, personally carried out the procedure of abolishing the establishment!"

When Li Ru said this, there was a strange arc on the corner of his mouth, and the gleam in his eyes was like the will-o'-the-wisp in the ten-mile mass grave, bewitching and mesmerizing: "These hypocritical scholars care about reputation more, and never do it properly. You're the first bird. Dong Zhuo's move just happened to help them solve their confidant's serious trouble, and he became their scapegoat! On the surface they are inexplicably sad, but secretly they are celebrating each other!"

"A trouble in the heart?" Ma Chao was even more confused. This conversation has overturned all his cognition.It made his thinking so chaotic that he couldn't think calmly at all...

Li Ru saw Ma Chao's confused look, and knew Ma Chao's current state.He showed a strange smile again, and continued to talk to Ma Chao: "My lord, do you know how the gentry officials in the court reacted when the Kwantung heroes raised their troops against Dong Zhuo and his subordinates discussed with Dong Zhuo to move the capital to avoid disaster?"

Ma Chao was dumbfounded. He couldn't figure out why Li Ru would suddenly ask such an irrelevant question, but he still answered truthfully: "According to Chao's later hearing, it was the imperial scholar-bureaucrats who argued with reason and persuaded with death. Angrily reprimanded Dong Zhuo for wavering. The foundation of the country, the opposition is fierce."

"Of course! Henan Yin Zhujun, Situ Yang Biao, Taiwei Huang Wan, Chengmen School Captain Wu Qiong, Governor Army School Captain Zhou Yu and others risked their lives to persuade them. As a result, Dong Zhuo was furious and used iron fists to kill Yang. Biao and Huang Wan were dismissed, and Wu Qiong and Zhou Yan were executed..." When he said this, Li Ru took a special look at Ma Chao, and then asked meaningfully: "My lord, don't you realize that at this time, the scholars and bureaucrats The resistance of Dong Zhuo is completely different from the silence when Dong Zhuo abolished the Young Emperor?"

"Huh? The attitudes of these two events are quite different before and after. There should be something strange about it. If you say that the abolition of the emperor is worse than the move of the capital..." Ma Chao felt like a marionette at this moment, thinking only He was led away by Li Ru.As a result, I couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, and said in a deep voice: "The doctor has something to say, and the superhuman nature is straightforward. I really don't understand this political game."

"It's Confucianism who has gone too far. I hope the lord will forgive me." Seeing that Ma Chao was angry, Li Ru felt a little bit of color in his heart. Seeing that Ma Chao's appetite had been whetted by this time, he replied: "When you are a scholar-bureaucrat, you are full of sages." Zi said, with a dignified appearance and an appearance of worrying about the world, he used the banner of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism from beginning to end to deceive the world. But in private, he spared no effort to seek power for their scholar group!"

After Li Ru made this conclusion, without waiting for Ma Chao to refute, he quickly said: "Abolishing the young emperor, it is because it is beneficial to them! If Dong Zhuo is not abolished, they will slowly make room for the then young emperor Liu Bian and Empress Dowager He. And the reason The reason for keeping silent about the abolition of the establishment, and even secretly helping each other, is because they are worried about retaliation by Emperor Shao and Empress Dowager He!"

"At the beginning, they encouraged He Jin to kill the eunuchs. As a result, these scholar-bureaucrats did more than fail, which led to He Jin being killed by the eunuchs. For He Jin's death, they couldn't absolve themselves of the blame. This is one of them; the Queen Mother has always favored the eunuchs , and after the death of He Jin, the scholar-bureaucrats exterminated all the eunuchs, fearing that the Queen Mother would not tolerate them. Abolish Li, if these scholar-bureaucrats are in power, I am afraid they will also take certain actions to restrict the young emperor and the empress dowager, and play the big Han country on top of applause!"

"As for the relocation of the capital, they strongly opposed it, because after the relocation of the capital, the ties between the Chang'an scholar-bureaucrats and the Kanto gentry will be cut off, and they will fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness. They will lose their foundation and become fish on the chopping board, a delusion of power in the future. It is even more difficult. Therefore, for the last hope of the scholars in power, they had to rise up and fight."

After these words, Ma Chao opened his mouth, but finally closed it helplessly: Although what Li Ru said was incredible, there was no flaw at all, so he couldn't help but not believe it.However, these facts take a certain amount of time to digest.After all, these things are far from the inherent historical impression in my mind...

Also, Li Ru, who was sitting in front of him at this time, was by no means a vicious and ruthless person as recorded in history, but a master with great wisdom and political vision!It's just that Dong Zhuo made mistakes in the later period, arrogantly arrogant, and no longer fully adopted Li Ru's plan, which ended Li Ru's career as a counselor, leaving history with a silent sigh...

If this person really trusts himself, with his great wisdom and such political vision, the Ma family group will definitely be a good stage for him to flex his muscles.And... a desire suddenly appeared in Ma Chao's mind, an extremely tempting desire: if you subdue Li Ru, you may unify the shadow army!
Now, to be more precise, the shadow of Ma’s family focuses on spying on commercial routes; while Diao Chan’s intelligence network gets information from camp prostitutes, official prostitutes, and palace prostitutes; but Li Ru’s black ice platform is different, It was operated by Li Ru for two years, and it was originally built to find out who the ministers had made false comments about Dong Zhuo.Therefore, his focus is on the undercover arrangement and infiltration of the servants of the princes, advisers, and generals of the Han Dynasty.

It is true that the shadow of the Ma family is also gradually working hard to infiltrate undercover agents.But this kind of work takes a long time.The reason is simple: because ordinary undercover agents can't find out any important news.The vital role can only be achieved after gradually gaining the trust of those targeted individuals over time.

Therefore, accepting the Black Ice Terrace that Li Ru has painstakingly managed for many years will bring great benefits to the Ma family.It can even be said that after receiving Li Ru's Black Ice Platform, the entire intelligence network of the Ma family will be completely perfected!

But, this Li Ru?
Even though Li Ru told about his situation, Li Ru was too cold and treacherous for people to believe easily.As for this detailed talk, although Ma Chao can indeed feel Li Ru's situation of being unable to advance or retreat at this time, unless he sees with his own eyes that Dong Zhuo no longer trusts Li Ru, and completely sees through the insidiousness and viciousness of scholars, he makes himself believe in Li Ru Ma Chao will truly accept Li Ru only when he is really desperate and sincerely attached.

At this time, I have to say that what Li Ru said was indeed very successful.It has already made Ma Chao feel the essence of scholars who are high-spirited on the surface, dirty on the inside, and single-minded in power by any means.But obviously, these are not enough!Because these can only make Ma Chao a little disgusted with scholars, but he will not be afraid, unless Li Ru can show the facts that make him feel afraid...

As for Li Ru, it seemed that he had been prepared for this long ago. What he said later made Ma Chao's mentality of underestimating scholars before him suddenly become more and more serious!
