Lu Dynasty

Chapter 87
After hearing Guo Jia's words, I sighed in my heart.But still calmly said: "Feng Xiao is really a great talent! I'm not as good as it!" Actually, I said this sentence sincerely.Regardless of Guo Jia's performance in history and Guo Jia's performance when he talks to me now, we can see Guo Jia's extraordinary talent, which also made me make up my mind. If Guo Jia doesn't submit to me, I will kill him now. He, in order to prevent future troubles, and it is easier to kill Guo Jia now.

Cai Yong listened to my words and asked: "My son-in-law, the ancients said: Although a country is large, it will perish if it is warlike! How do you say that non-stop wars and aggressions can prevent the country from declining?"

I smiled and said, "Father-in-law, that's from the past. He didn't know what war was and why he fought. Let's talk about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He was the emperor who fought most frequently against foreign nations, but his wars led to the decline of the Han Dynasty. Why? Because he fought for his personal face, for revenge, and his war did not bring any benefit to the country."

"War can bring benefits?" Cai Yong asked in surprise.

"Naturally!" I said, "Of course there is no benefit in fighting civil wars, and it is absolutely beneficial to fight wars of aggression. For example, why do foreigners like the Huns, Turks, and Uhuans attack us big men?"

"It's for gold, silver, food, and women!" Guo Jia said in a deep voice.

"Then why can't we invade Wuhuan and Xiongnu for land, gold, silver, horses and other things?" I asked, "Is it for the so-called way of benevolence and forgiveness?"

Cai Yong said: "We are human beings, we can't be bitten by animals, let's bite back!"

"Since my father-in-law knows that foreigners are not human, what kind of benevolence and righteousness is there with them?" I laughed and said, "Just kill the biting beasts. We kill all the males that can bite, and leave those who are obedient and sensible. It’s okay to domesticate a dog! One of the most stupid things that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did was to defeat the Xiongnu, but released the captives. He also gave the Huns the Heshuo Plain to herd horses and sheep! The Yellow River has nine harms but only one profit The Han people did not get the benefit of the Yellow River, but Emperor Wu of the Han gave his own benefit to the Huns. This is not stupid, what is it?"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Brother Ba Xian, you don't even look down on such a talented and bold master as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. I don't know what Brother Ba Xian wants to do?"

"To be honest, I really look down on any emperor from ancient times to the present!" I said to Guo Jia: "Before the Qin Dynasty, let's not talk about it, they didn't even have an emperor. Let's say that Qin Shihuang started, Qin Shihuang swept Liuhe , to rule the world. But he was so idiotic that he wanted to live forever! Later, an eunuch took the opportunity to destroy the country, you say it's ridiculous!"

"Ridiculous! Sad! Deplorable!" Guo Jia said.

"Let's talk about Xiang Yu and Liu Bang! Xiang Yu is very powerful, but he doesn't know how to use people. His vision is not long-term enough! He doesn't see through many things. In fact, Xiang Yu can be a general and a powerful minister, but he is not suitable to be a monarch. However, It's really hard to find a monarch who can control Xiang Yu." I smiled and said, "And Liu Bang, the Han Gaozu, is just a rogue, a green skin. He is a gambler. In troubled times, he takes his own life Betting. Whether it is Zhang Liang or Han Xin, he was able to delegate power at first, because his power came easily, and if he lost, he would just lose his life. But once he unified the rivers and mountains, he immediately killed these meritorious People, even Zhang Liang went into seclusion because he was afraid! As a result, Liu Bang's Baideng Mountain was encircled."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "That's right, these emperors are indeed ruthless and ungrateful, and everyone else is a tool in their hands! But with so many dynasties, there are not many good emperors?"

I shook my head and said, "Good emperor? Yes, Emperor Han Chong, Emperor Han Zhi, and Emperor Han Ai are all good emperors!"

"Pfft!" Xi Zhicai was drinking, after hearing what I said, he spit out the whole drink, pointed at me and said, "They are all little emperors, some of them are not yet one year old, so they can be regarded as good emperors!"

"At least they didn't do any evil!" I laughed and said, "Emperor Han Wen and Emperor Han Jing are also good emperors, but their merits are not very great, and they also made mistakes. How innocent Chao Cuo is, but Emperor Han Jing is so idiotic that he thinks that those princes raised troops The rebellion is just thinking about Qing Jun's side! How ridiculous! How naive! And that Guangwu Zhongxing, Liu Xiu, who started his fortune by relying on the aristocratic family, resulted in a big end. Isn't the current big man eating this evil result? Said to be Shi Changshi Chaos of power, what power did the ten permanent servants mess with?"

Guo Jia took a sip of wine and narrowed his eyes.He never thought about the issue of Shi Changshi and the family.Every day, Xun Yu and Xun You are saying that Shi Changshi is not good, but now I have opened up an idea for him. With his intelligence, he doesn't need me to say anything at all, he can understand what I mean in an instant.

Xi Zhicai is worse than Guo Jia.He asked: "Isn't it a disorder of power that the ten permanent attendants sell their officials and sell their titles?"

I laughed and said, "Zhicai, the ten-time servant sells officials and nobles, do you buy them? Do the common people buy them? Who is really buying the officials? It's a big family! So what does the ten-time servant have to do with the common people! Even if the ten-time servant doesn't sell it, Isn’t the current inspection system controlled by aristocratic families? Look at the civil servants standing in the imperial court, how many of them are truly honored as filial piety because of their outstanding talents and noble character. Even the military officers are descendants of aristocratic families No matter civil or military, the poor families are all excluded. Fighting to death, those from the poor family will receive meritorious service and be rewarded by the children of the aristocratic family! The current ten permanent servants are just one more procedure to pay before becoming an official, and the aristocratic family will say that they are in chaos. What are those aristocratic families who really control the lifeline of the country called!"

"This..." Xi Zhi was dumbfounded!Everything I say is true.Xi Zhicai also knew about it, but the status quo was like this, and he had never considered these issues.

Guo Jia laughed and said, "Brother Ba Xian is indeed a great talent. I don't know what is the ambition of Brother Ba Xian?"

"Let the Han people stand at the top of the world!" I laughed and said, "Let the Han people's dynasty never decline!"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Brother Ba Xian, if you have great ambitions, I wonder if I, Guo Jia, will be honored to accompany you in the last seat?"

I grabbed Guo Jia's hand and said excitedly: "Brother Feng Xiao is willing to create a great cause with me?"

Xi Zhicai became anxious when he heard this, and said, "Feng Xiao, why are you..."

Guo Jia turned to Xi Zhicai and asked, "Zhicai is willing to assist the Lord with me!"

"Ah!" Xi Zhicai sighed, and said, "Forget it, if you are an enemy of Guo Fengxiao, how can I, Xi Zhicai, do it!" After finishing speaking, he knelt down to me and said, "Xi Zhicai pays homage to the lord!" Zhicai is more thorough than Guo Jia!
I pulled Xi Zhicai and held his and Guo Jia's hands, feeling so excited in my heart.I smiled and said, "I, Lu Feng, am so honored to have the help of the two of you today!" Cai Yong looked at my expression from the side, a little confused, isn't it just two alarmist juniors, why am I so excited!But not long after, he found out how correct my decision was!
