Lu Dynasty

Chapter 608 Huang Yueying

Pang Tong was shocked when he heard my words. He didn’t expect that not only did I not want to be an emperor, but I even wanted to cancel the emperor. Pang Tong, who was deeply poisoned by Confucianism, asked in surprise: “The ancients said: A country cannot be without a king for a day! There are no two days, and the people have no two masters! If there is no emperor, who will decide the affairs of the country?"

"Why does someone have to make decisions?" In fact, I have already mentioned the concept of democratic voting, but Pang Tong still doesn't understand it. I feel helpless. People in a feudal society can hardly imagine life without an emperor Society, maybe this is the limitation of the times, just like no matter how stupid the emperor is, the people will always help him find a scapegoat, and only those scapegoats in later generations can be rehabilitated.But if I want to win over Pang Tong, I have to correct his thinking. I asked Pang Tong: "Shiyuan, why do you think the country will perish?"

"Is there a foolish emperor? Are there treacherous officials who deceived the emperor? Or is the court corrupt and incompetent?" Pang Tong gave the most common answer in the Han Dynasty, and it is also the answer I most want to hear!

"In fact, the simplest reason for the country's demise is that natural disasters and man-made disasters left the people without food, and the people rebelled and overthrew the country!" I said with a smile, "If the court puts the people first in everything, and even handed over the power to the people, do you think it's okay? Will some people rebel?"

"Hand over the power to the people?" Pang Tong was startled by my bolder words. He had never even thought about these things, but since I said it, there must be a practical way!Pang Tong looked at me suspiciously, he didn't understand how the people can manage the country well.He asked inexplicably: "If the people can handle the government affairs well, what do the court need?"

"The common people are not capable of handling government affairs well, but they can judge which official is a good one!" I laughed and said, "Let the common people elect good local officials to the central government to make decisions, while new officials who enter the imperial court should be put in Going to the local level, if the local officials cannot be elected by the people, they will not be allowed to participate in the central decision-making, so that the officials will consider the people, even if it is just to get in, but they have indeed done good things for the people!" If you want to get directly from the feudal society It is indeed difficult to enter socialism, but it should not be difficult to develop the internal parliamentary system and the Three People's Principles!

Pang Tong combined my court organization and found that I have a whole set of methods of governing the country, and this set of governance methods is completely different from the times and does not conform to any theory. Pang Tong asked suspiciously: "I am very strange, I don't know Mr. Lu's Who is the teacher, and why can he teach you such a strange student?" Pang Tong has almost become a curious baby, and under my control, he seems to understand nothing!
"I have two teachers. The one who taught me martial arts is Xiang Yu, and the one who teaches me literature and military strategy is Jia Xu!" I smiled and asked, "Why does Shi Yuan ask this?"

"Xiang Yu definitely doesn't have the ability to govern the country. As for Jia Xu, I believe he doesn't have this kind of thinking either. May I ask who taught you the art of governing the country?" As a modern person, in the era of information explosion, the added The work is becoming transparent again. It is not surprising to know how to govern the country and how to operate it, but I can't tell Pang Tong that I am a time traveler. Even if I tell him, he won't understand!I had no choice but to repeat what I said to fool Tian Feng and the others back then, but Pang Tong didn't seem to believe it very much!

Seeing that I didn't want to discuss this topic, Huang Yueying smiled and said: "Prime Minister Lu, you said just now that you not only don't want to let Pang Tong go, but you don't want to let me go, but what do you keep me here for? Do you want to be your concubine? Not pretty!"

"Am I such a lecherous person? I know Miss Huang's talent well! Let's say that the Liannu you found in Wancheng should be able to shoot ten arrows. With this crossbow, I can't even let Miss go!" I looked at Huang Yueying and said with a smile: "Besides, how do you know that you are not beautiful? Don't just believe what others say, you must be confident! As long as you have confidence, even Dong Shi is also a beauty, why bother to imitate her?"

Huang Yueying doesn't like to discuss her appearance, but I'm the first to praise her for her beauty, so she won't hit me with a smiley face.Huang Yueying said with a smile: "Prime Minister Lu doesn't need to flatter me, people have self-knowledge. If you are not beautiful, you are not beautiful. If you say that, I doubt what your purpose is!"

"There must be a purpose, the biggest purpose is to keep you!" I looked at Huang Yueying and said with a smile: "However, if you say you are not beautiful, I do not agree! There are many kinds of beauty in girls, and you She belongs to that kind of cute girl! Maybe you don’t have Cai Yan’s maturity, Diao Chan’s beauty, and Xiao Qiao’s beauty, but you have your cuteness, the key is whether anyone will appreciate you!”

"So, you will appreciate me?" Huang Yueying said with a smile: "Could it be that you want me to stay because you want to marry me as a concubine?"

"How is it possible? After all, I am already in my 30s and almost 40 years old! Ms. Huang is young and versatile, how can I be the only old man?" To be honest, it is really good to have Huang Yueying as a helper. A talented assistant or secretary, at least in history, Zhuge Liang never cared about family affairs after marrying him!If she had been born ten years earlier, I would absolutely be willing to marry her, but now I am indeed a bit older, and I already have three daughters-in-law in my family. , but the status is not inferior to the emperor!

Huang Yueying misunderstood my words. In her opinion, I rejected her because she was ugly.Huang Yueying smiled coldly and said: "I know that you princes are hypocritical, say one thing and do another! If you don't want to marry me, what will you do with me? I thought Luoyang could be an official, but I didn't want your subordinates to tell me yesterday that Luoyang has no There are no women who are officials! I can’t be an official, and you won’t marry me. What can I do here? Would it make people laugh at me?”

"Who said that women cannot be officials in my territory?" I looked at Huang Yueying and smiled, "The whole of Luoyang and the whole world will be in my hands. Even if democracy is to be implemented, it is impossible to start with me! As long as you Huang Yueying is talented, so she can be an official in Luoyang, this is what I said, and I will let it go!" As soon as the words came out, Huang Yueying was stunned, although she had thought of being an official as a woman, but She just regarded this idea as an unrealistic dream, and she never thought that this dream could be realized!

After Huang Yueying was stunned for a while, she pinched Pang Tong with her hand, and Pang Tong immediately cried out. Huang Yueying laughed and said, "It will hurt, I'm not dreaming!"
