Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 208 Confessions and falsehoods

Chapter 212

On the other hand, Wang Meng closed his eyes and remained silent.

Although Wang Meng seemed to be asleep on the surface, in fact his head was spinning like lightning!

Since Dong Zhongshu advocated dismissing hundreds of schools and respecting Confucianism alone.

Confucianism has become a dominant situation.The gentry passed down Confucian academic thought from generation to generation.Ever since Chen Qun launched the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System, a gap has been established between the poor and the gentry.

Wang Meng is not a simple Confucian scholar, but a legalist scholar from a poor family.

Confucianism is the legal cloak of the gentry. In order to protect their interests forever, it is incompatible with Wang Meng, a humble legalist.

In history, it was precisely because of robbing the rich and helping the poor that Ran Min took an indifferent approach to the gentry who oppressed the people and worked for them!
Ran Min, like Ran Ming, reused members of the humble Legalist family, and as a result, the northern gentry spared no effort to destroy the legitimacy of Ran Min's regime.

"If the name is not right, the words will not go well, if the words are not right, the affairs will not be accomplished, if the affairs are not accomplished, the rites and music will not be prosperous, if the rites and music are not prosperous, the punishment will not be carried out, and if the punishment is not correct, the people will be at a loss." Confucius said in "The Analects of Confucius" , has become a reasonable basis for Confucian scholars to treat legality!According to the parallel history, Ran Min had a view that the nobles were also Han people, and he took a lenient attitude towards the Han people who opposed him!

In this way, Ran Min's kindness was regarded as weakness, and as a result, Ran Wei, who was once powerful, all seven states rebelled one after another!
In this time and space, Ran Ming told Ran Min that he wanted both kindness and power.He punished the Cui Tong branch of the Cui clan of Qinghe, and killed all of Cui Tong's family at once.

In this way, these gentry finally realized that Ran Min was not a weak person.The aristocrats have no loyalty to the country at all. They all adhere to the view that if you have a milk, you are a mother. After seeing Ran Min's tough methods, it is natural to win over Ran Min's interests!
The so-called legality means that anyone who dares to accuse him of being illegal will be killed. If no one objects, he will naturally be legal.

Now Wei State doesn't need Ran Min to worry about the legitimacy of his Wei State, those gentry Confucian scholars who took refuge in Ran Min began to look for evidence for Ran Wei's legitimacy!And take advantage of the gentry's advantage in mastering culture and public opinion to start building momentum for Ran Min!

Of course, all this happened in Wei Guo.

Wang Meng knew it all!
Now it doesn't matter whether it is Yan State, Dai State, Liang State, Jin State, or Qin State.Even the current state of Wei regards the issue of family background as particularly important.

If you don't have a family background, you will be suppressed.Including Qingzhou, the dozens of humble officials promoted by Ran Ming have also had enough of making things difficult for the noble officials.

Wang Meng is an ambitious person, so he naturally doesn't want a stage where his ambition is not realized.And in this world, the only person who can make him realize his ideals and aspirations is Ran Ming.

Only Ran Ming can make good use of poor family scholars, only Ran Ming can regard Confucianism as nothing, only Ran Ming can hide a legalist heart under the legal cloak of Confucianism!

Wang Meng suddenly opened his eyes, and looked at Ran Ming with clear eyes, without a trace of anxiety.

Looking at Ran Ming, who was only 14 years old, Wang Meng felt filled with emotion. Ran Ming has really grown up!

"How does His Highness plan?"

When Ran Ming heard this, he let out a sigh of relief.Wang Meng was asking about Ran Ming's attitude!There is no solution, in fact Ran Ming guessed what Wang Meng was thinking.There are nothing more than two extremes, or you can retreat to advance and hide your strength and bide your time.Either head-to-head and never back down!
Sure enough, when Ran Ming was thinking.

Wang Meng said: "If your Highness wants to deal with it, it's actually not too difficult!"

As he spoke, Wang Meng dipped his fingers in the wine and drew a map on the table.

"Your Highness, the conflict between the Jin court and Huan Wen has become difficult to reconcile. The two sides have reached the point where they are about to meet each other! However, Jin does not have any army that can compete with Huan Wen's Xifu Army. I am willing to go to Jiankang in person. To rectify the name of His Highness, at least a general of Zhenbei and a marquis who is waiting for him are indispensable! The official position is at least Qingzhou Shepherd Governor Qing, Yu, Yan, Luo, and the four prefectures military!"

Ran Ming heard Wang Meng's words, thinking about the feasibility of it.

Ran Ming was also considering the pros and cons of these two approaches.Ran Ming has obvious advantages in military affairs, and now the army in his hands has surpassed that of Ran Min.

Canglang Camp, Hu Xiao Camp, Su Jie Army, Beiwei Army, Gale Wind Camp, Huben Camp, plus his Modao Army, Beg Thieves Army, and Luozhou New Army, he has tens of thousands of soldiers in his hands. army.

Even if they raise the flag to rebel, they can still beat Ran Min to lose his temper!

However, in terms of politics, it is Ran Ming's shortcoming, because Ran Ming is the second son.Except for Wang Meng, every gentry around him had to keep a distance from him.

Even Hongnong Yang's focus has shifted from Luoyang to Yecheng!
This is something that Ran Ming is both helpless and embarrassing.

Besides, because of Ran Ming's appearance.History has completely changed.The civil war between Murong Ke and Murong Ping of Yan State broke out ahead of schedule, and the conflict between Fu Sheng and Fu Jian of Qin State was also intolerable!Because of Huan Wen and the Sima court, Jin gradually moved from behind the scenes to the foreground.

If the state of Wei falls into turmoil, it will miss the last opportunity for the development of the state of Wei!
When Qin and Yan end their internal strife and unite with the outside world, Wei will still face the same fate as in history, surrounded by powerful enemies.

Ran Ming said leisurely: "I don't want to be a sinner of the Huaxia nation, and I don't want to be a sinner of the Wei country!"

Ran Ming's calmness surprised Wang Meng.

If Ran Ming agrees with his opinion, maybe Wang Meng will be extremely disappointed.He also knew that Ran Ming's foundation was too weak. If he could give Ran Ming ten years of management, Wang Meng could imagine that Ran Ming would be able to easily obtain the crown prince and become the legitimate monarch of Wei.

But now, Ran Ming lacks this kind of foundation.

Wang Meng said: "If this is the case, you must retreat to advance! Your Highness handed over all the military power in his hands, the Canglang Camp, the Tiger Roaring Camp, the Quick Jie Army, the Back Cub Army, the Mo Dao Army, the Gale Wind Camp, the Huben Camp, The Luozhou new army and the rebellious army are all handed over to His Majesty! To show His Highness's loyalty."

Ran Ming said: "This is not enough. Gu intends to use the excuse of lack of virtue to ask the father to cut down Gu's vassal state. Gu's name is Chu, but the feudal state is not in Chu. The king of Chu is famous but not real! So Gu is going to ask for change. Confer the title of King of Jiaodong, and enfeoff the land as Jiaodong!"

Wang Meng was sad.

On the vast sea, on the second floor of the five-toothed battleship "Feiyun" of the Qingzhou Navy of the State of Wei, a beautiful woman stood quietly by the window.

This woman wears a small tufted floral palace dress, a red bandeau tied very low, a white shawl, and five feet long hair that is not tied up in a high bun. It is tied casually with a piece of pink satin and hangs behind her, ironed. The paste is soft, two points less noble, and three points more delicate.

This woman is none other than Huan Wen's concubine.The heroine of the idiom, I feel pity, is the younger sister of Li Shi, the last emperor of the Cheng Han Dynasty. "Shi Shuo Xin Yu" does not include her name, and she is only called Li Shimei (the three idiots call her Li Jingmei in the top-rank poor scholars)

The sea at dusk is gloomy.The sea water is no longer blue, but dark green.

Li Jingmei's eyes are like stars, her white teeth are lightly opened, and she sang in her mouth: "The mountains and rivers are heavy, the moon is dim and bright, the years are getting old, and I don't believe in customs. Where is the homeland? Last night, the west wind. Long-lasting hatred, nightmares are frequent. Tears and sweaters, Who knows my heart...

There is an indescribable melody and desolation in the singing.

With a soft sigh, the sound of slow footsteps gradually disappeared.

The sadness on Li Jingmei's face was long gone, replaced by a ruthless look.

Li Jingmei didn't need to look back, she also knew that the person behind her just now was Sima Xingnan, Princess of Nankang.

There is a saying that beauty is a disaster, and a beautiful woman like Li Jingmei is poison for the intestines!Although Li Jingmei is Huan Wen's concubine, she has no relationship with Huan Wen.

On the contrary, she and Huan Wen still have blood feud.

Li Jingmei was originally the princess of Cheng Han Kingdom, with golden branches and jade leaves.In the second year of Yonghe (346 A.D.), Li Yi, a minister of the Cheng Han Dynasty, rebelled from Jinshou (now Jiameng).Huan Wen took advantage of the situation and sent troops to attack Shu, and wiped out Cheng Han in one fell swoop.Captured Cheng Han Emperor Li Shi to Jiankang, the capital of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.After Li Shi arrived in Jiankang, he was encircled in Jiankang and granted the title of Marquis of Guiyi.Li Jingmei, who was 14 years old at the time, was taken as a concubine by Huan Wenqiang.

Li Jingmei was 21 years old at this time, and there was another reason for her anger.Huan Wen is too old. After 40 years, a man's energy will go downhill.But Li Jingmei was dissatisfied with her desires, coupled with the hatred of subjugating the country and destroying her family, Li Jingmei hated Huan Wen even more.

If a woman wants revenge, her body is the only capital.But although Li Jingmei had the opportunity to kill Huan Wen secretly.Although she had no chance to poison Huan Wen's meal orders, she could stab Huan Wen to death with a dagger or a hairpin when she was sleeping.But Li Jingmei felt that it would be too cheap to kill Huan Wen like this!
Therefore, Li Jingmei has been secretly waiting for an opportunity!

Of course, Ran Ming's appearance gave her hope of revenge!Especially after she and Sima Xingnan were captured by Ran Ming's men, Li Jingmei felt that she was one step closer to the great cause of revenge!
Li Jingshu is not a Han, but a member of the Badi tribe in central Sichuan. There is no difference in appearance between the Badi tribe and the Han people. It is said that the men look rough, while the women have snow-skinned appearance. She is also the stunning beauty of the Badi people.

Li Jingmei has narcissistic confidence in her body and appearance.Even any normal man can't refuse his teasing and temptation.What's more, Ran Ming has another hobby, Ran Ming doesn't love young girls, he only loves mature women!
Li Jingmei began to plan in her heart, how she should approach Ran Ming, how to make Ran Ming bow under her pomegranate skirt!

In Yedu of Wei State, at some point in Yecheng, Ran Ming became the star of all eyes again.

However, this time, there are definitely not any good things about Ran Ming, such as shrunken pedophilia, robbery of wives, deception of money and sex.These rumors are all well-spoken, when, where, under what circumstances, there was a thunderstorm outside, how Ran Ming met someone's wife, saw her beauty, and then broke into the house, how to restrain him, how to threaten and lure ...
