Chapter 1509: Unrest

I have to say that Du Lan is the most elusive person Xiao Feng has ever seen in his thirty years of life. Although they have only known each other for a short time, everything Du Lan does makes Xiao Feng feel an unspeakable courage.

Although Xiao Feng's biological father was sent to do hard labor by Du Lan, Xiao Feng had clear grudges. His father stole Ye Erniang's son out of revenge, and Ye Erniang later harmed so many people. He deserved it. Xiao Feng had known about Ye Erniang's evil deeds before, but only then did he realize that the source of it all was his own father. One drink and one peck, the world is unpredictable.

Now Du Lan actually allowed himself to usurp the throne. To be honest, Xiao Feng had never thought about it. He was just the leader of the Beggar Clan and the King of the South Campus. How could he be the emperor?

"As long as you want to do it, I can let you do it." Dulan looked at Xiao Feng, "Don't think about whether you can do it, but think about whether you can do something for the people, and don't underestimate your own ideals. "

Xiao Feng remained speechless because this kind of thing was really too important. He just hoped that A'Zhu would be resurrected so that he could listen to A'Zhu's opinion. He never thought of asking Ah Zi. According to his sister-in-law's personality, she must be afraid of the world being in chaos and encourage her brother-in-law to become the emperor.

"You can think about it again. Don't rush to reply to me." Dulan said, "Now I will help your sister-in-law treat her eyes."

"Can it be cured?" Xiao Feng asked in surprise. She had examined her sister-in-law's two eyeballs and they were now like raisins. How could there be any possibility of treatment?

Of course it can be cured. You must know that there is eye transplantation technology in Tianshan. Although it is very unscientific, in the original work, You Tanzhi's eyeballs were transplanted to restore Ah Zi's sight.

"Of course it can be cured." Dulan said that if I don't let you know about the magic, you don't know how powerful the time traveler is.

The moment came to witness the miracle. Du Lan just touched A Zi's eyes with his hands, and her eyes were already healed. It was simply miraculous.

"You are not a monk." The first thing Ah Zi said after seeing the light was to question whether Dulan was not a monk. How could he extradite Tathagata if he was not a monk?

Du Lan didn't say much. Ah Zi's character had been ruined by Ding Chunqiu. Although she would pretend to be kind in front of Xiao Feng, she was very rude to outsiders.

That night Xiao Feng was tossing and turning, and when he finally fell asleep, he received a dream from A'Zhu. A'Zhu asked Xiao Feng to think about the world. She said that Xiao Feng would be better than any emperor in the world, so she supported Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng thought of A'Zhu and shed tears in his dream. When he woke up, the quilt was wet, and he was determined to fight for the throne.

When Du Lan saw Xiao Feng coming to him, he knew that what he did yesterday by asking A'Zhu to dream was right. As expected, the only person who could convince Xiao Feng was A'Zhu. Although it seems that Xiao Feng understands the truth clearly and understands the righteousness, in fact, he is also a person trapped by the righteousness and cannot change his temper. This kind of person is actually the most difficult to persuade.

Fortunately, Dulan knew Xiao Feng's weaknesses. His moral views would not accept anyone's changes, with the only exception being A'Zhu.

"Have you decided?" Duran asked.

Xiao Feng nodded: "It's decided, I just hope you won't lie to me." This kind of thing will lead to death. Once the decision is implemented, there is no turning back.

Du Lan designed two plans. Plan A was to rebel, defeat the Liao army from the bottom up and proclaim himself emperor. The difficulty level is three stars. Plan B is from top to bottom, coercing the emperor to command the princes, and controlling the hegemony of the Liao Kingdom. When the time is right, the emperor will abdicate and take the throne himself. The difficulty is two stars.

"It's your choice."

According to Xiao Feng's style, Plan A is naturally the most suitable for his character. He obtains power in a real way and does not take shortcuts. But now he has to consider not himself, but the world, and the perspective is completely different. Obviously, Plan B will have the least impact on Liaoning and abroad, with the least casualties.

"I choose Plan B." Xiao Feng said.

Du Lan expressed his understanding: "Then get ready. The Emperor of Liao will fall ill in a few days. At that time, he will make you the regent. Then you can control Liao step by step and wait for the opportunity."

Seeing Du Lan's relaxed look, Xiao Feng had to wonder if Du Lan was really a god.

"Don't be surprised. Making history is so simple. For people like us, a slight decision may cause a series of violent reactions. Over time, you will naturally get used to it." "You can go back now, but Even if you become the regent, there must be many opposition forces within the Liao Kingdom, and you will have to deal with them yourself. "

Xiao Feng nodded. In fact, he knew that his decision was selfish and he felt sorry for the Emperor of Liao who reused him. But in order for Song and Liao to end the war, he had to do this.

At this time, Xiao Feng's mentality also changed. Since the Emperor of Liao could not end the disputes on the Song-Liao border, he had no choice but to do it himself.

When Xiao Feng returned to the Liao Kingdom, he received the imperial decree and appointed him as regent. Xiao Feng was even more amazed by Du Lan's ability. Of course, the nobles and bureaucrats of the Liao Kingdom were very dissatisfied. What qualifications did a mere king of the South Campus and the commander of the puppet army have to be the regent?

But Xiao Feng made a strong comeback. This time he had made up his mind, so it was difficult to stop him.

Killing chickens to scare monkeys, Xiao Feng took control of the court through strong means, and then began to realize his political ambitions as regent. The first was to let the Han and Khitan people in the Liao Kingdom coexist peacefully, reuse Han officials, and educate the Liao Kingdom in advanced civilization. Transformation.

The culture of the Central Plains is very powerful. As long as the surrounding barbaric cultures come into contact with it, they will either be destroyed or accept assimilation. There is no third option.

Liao was actually already Sinicized, but Xiao Feng accelerated the Sinicization process after he had the power.

In fact, the surrounding Xixia and Dali have already been highly sinicized. However, Tubo has a low degree of sinicization due to its small population and vast land. It has maintained a very primitive style and believes in Tantric Buddhism.

Seeing the work of the Xiao Feng sinicization team day and night, Du Lan said that there is a future. In fact, the strongest thing about the Central Plains culture is etiquette, which is the sense of ritual.

In fact, if we really say that a person lives for a lifetime, it is meaningless to the world. Even if all human beings are destroyed, the world will still develop. Human behavior is only responsible for human beings themselves. Under this premise, the people of the Zhou Dynasty developed the Zhou Li with a full sense of ritual, which strengthened the sense of human existence. This can be said to be of cross-era significance to human beings.

Rituals can be seen as anchors left by humans on the vast ocean. With it, humans have a goal in life, which is of great significance to humans.

The sense of ritual in the Central Plains is unique in this era, and naturally makes people yearn for and rely on it. When the barbarians who could only perform magic under the command of shamans saw the complicated and orderly rituals and ceremonies in the Central Plains, they must have felt ashamed. They had to learn. Why were the rituals of the Central Plains people so grand? Then they found out that it was because the Central Plains people learned things well, so they naturally had to learn from them.

People can only live meaningfully within the framework set by humans themselves, and the more gorgeous and perfect this framework is, the more attractive it is.

Of course, Xiao Feng still has a long way to go, because the Liao Kingdom also has many enemies, such as the Western Xia and the Jurchens.

It is now the end of the Northern Song Dynasty. It can be said that the situation is turbulent. Peasant uprisings have occurred one after another in the Northern Song Dynasty. The surrounding countries are either actively preparing for war or busy with civil strife. Obviously, the uneasy days will become even more uneasy in the future.
