Chapter 732 The World in Turbulence (End)
Shen Fei's question immediately made Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling silent at the same time. They had no impression of Goguryeo at first, but who made Fu Junma save them and become their mother? Just for this aspect , it would be difficult for Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling to take action against Goguryeo.
That is to say, Shen Fei has a good impression of Shuangyong, and he doesn't want to waste their talents, otherwise he can just ignore them. With him here, this time Kou Zhong may even have a problem with whether the young commander's army can be formed.
If you switch to other worlds, look at when Shen Fei has trained protagonists, whether it is Harry Potter, Naruto, Luffy, etc., he has not had much contact with them.
"Why is there a war? Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to live in peace?" When Kou Zhong was silent, Xu Ziling suddenly sighed deeply.
"Why is there a war? I'm sorry, I can't answer this question." Don't say that he is not a god, even if he is a god, God can't avoid war either. I haven't seen the constant war in Marvel's Asgard. .
"But even you and Kou Zhong will always quarrel with each other. When you have different ideas, don't talk about other people. It is said that one person has one righteousness, ten people have ten righteousnesses, a hundred people have a hundred righteousnesses, and a thousand people have a thousand righteousnesses. In this kind of situation Under certain circumstances, even if you don't want to start a war, there are still people who want to start a war.
So when others come over, are you prepared to resist desperately, or are you prepared to kneel down and surrender, and let your life be taken away from you? Compared with when you were a gangster, and someone bullied you, what would you do? "
Xu Ziling immediately fell silent again. Of course, he resisted with all his strength. He ran away if he couldn't be beaten. It was impossible to kneel down and beg for mercy without resisting.
"Let's put this question aside, what do you think of Yang Guang? Do you think he is a faint king or a wise king?" Seeing that Kou Zhong remained silent, Shen Fei immediately asked another question.
"Can Yang Guang still be a wise king?" Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at Shen Fei in disbelief. If ordinary people heard Shen Fei's question, they would definitely answer directly that he was a wise king. However, both Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were smarter. As a human being, I immediately heard something from Shen Fei's tone.
"Why can't it be Mingjun?" Shen Fei asked with a smile.
"How is this possible? Yang Guang has made the whole world miserable. He is so overjoyed with his achievements, so ignorant and incompetent. He spends all day drinking and indulging in women. If such a person is a wise king, there will be no foolish king in the world." Kou Zhong immediately retorted directly, while Xu Ziling also nodded in agreement.
"Do you think it's Yang Guang's fault that the world is in such chaos now? But it's not your fault. You must have no chance to learn."
There are too many gangsters like Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in this era, just like the friends of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in that Zhuhua Gang. Speaking of their friends, they are doing better in the Zhuhua Gang than they are, but in the In terms of ambition, Ssangyong is much stronger than most people.
Later, his friends were able to do well, all thanks to Kou Zhong.
"Everyone, sit down. I'll teach you a lesson now." Shen Fei said, waving his hand to Ssangyong and the two of them to sit on the beach. Then he sat down himself, and at the same time, a bamboo stick appeared in his right hand.
"Let's talk about it first, why Yang Guang wanted to conquer Korea three times. This is not because he is overjoyed, but because he has a strategic vision. Kou Zhong, I can tell you clearly, no matter who wants to dominate the world in the future, he wants to be a It is inevitable for a good emperor to conquer Goryeo. If she did not do this, it means that she is not a good emperor.
There are many reasons why Yang Guang wants to conquer Goryeo. One of them is that Goryeo repeatedly violated the border. Let's put it this way, compare the Central Plains to a gang and Goryeo is another gang. If someone keeps attacking your gang's territory, you will How to do it? "While talking, Shen Fei used a bamboo stick to draw a schematic diagram for the two of them on the beach.
"Of course I went back for revenge."
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling's expressions immediately froze. As gangsters, fighting for territory is common. Even pickpockets have their territory.
However, the two of them did not say this. After all, according to Shen Fei, the war between the Central Plains and Goryeo was actually a gang war that expanded many times.
"In fact, Yang Guang was a very talented and strategic emperor in the first half of his life. Whether it was his digging of the Grand Canal or the imperial examination system, his achievements were both contemporary and future-proof."
As he spoke, Shen Fei drew a general topographic map of the Central Plains, as well as the Grand Canal, and explained to Shuanglong the role of the Grand Canal and the imperial examination.
Yang Guang is actually very strategic. You can tell from the fact that he wants to move the capital from Chang'an. At this point, not even Li Shimin can compare with him.
Chang'an is known as the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties. From here we can know how great the influence of Chang'an is. However, things are not static. During the Han Dynasty, Chang'an was very important as the capital, but by the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it seemed to be somewhat inadequate. .
To put it bluntly, if Li Shimin had built the capital in Luoyang instead of Chang'an City, the Tang Dynasty might not have so many problems later.
"Not to mention Yang Guang's other aspects, just the imperial examination. Disciples from aristocratic families are qualified to scold him, but as the lowest class of people, you are the least qualified to scold him, because he has provided the lower class with the opportunity to rise. channel."
"Since you said Yang Guang is so powerful, why is the world in chaos now?" After listening to Shen Fei's analysis of Yang Guang, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were silent for a long time before continuing to ask.
"It's very simple, because he has offended all the aristocratic families in the upper echelons of the country. You know what system was implemented before the imperial examination system, the nine-rank Zhongzheng system. It is said that there are no poor families in the upper class and no noble families in the lower class."
After seeing that Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling did not understand what Wuhan Clan and Wushi Clan were, Shen Fei went out of his way to explain the meaning.
In the legend of Bianhuang, the so-called nobles should not be too arrogant.
"For those aristocratic families, the nine-level Zhongzheng system can ensure that their families will always be prosperous. In this case, the imperial examination has shaken their biggest interests. Therefore, when Yang Guang conquered Goryeo, these aristocratic families and sects all They are trying their best to hold back the enemy, not working hard, and there are even some people who deliberately leak military information just to see Yang Guang fail.
Otherwise, how could Yang Guang's million-strong army fail three times in a row? Although Master Yijian, Cai Lin, has left, there are many masters in the Central Plains. The problem is these masters. "
While talking, Shen Fei secretly blackmailed Ning Daoqi. While the grand masters of other countries were fighting for their country, this grand master was going to do something to choose the emperor for heaven, and it was planned twenty years ago. , once these things are leaked out, some people will not be able to stop thinking about them.
"Where's the great master of the Central Plains?" Kou Zhong immediately thought of Ning Daoqi.
"Are you talking about Sanren Ning Daoqi? He didn't appear on the battlefield." After saying this, Shen Fei showed a sneer, and Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at each other.
"There is a saying that a century-old dynasty is a thousand-year-old family. For those aristocratic families, some people will do anything to ensure that their families will enjoy prosperity and wealth for generations to come."
Welding the car doors shut and not letting anyone get in was the philosophy of most aristocratic families in the feudal era. However, what they never thought about was that China is not the West. If the welded car doors cannot be opened, then just open the car doors. Lifted for you.
"Okay, let's continue with this aspect later. Let me first explain to you what it means that if we divide for a long time, we will unite and if we unite for a long time, we will divide."
As he spoke, Shen Fei gave Shuanglong a good lesson from the perspective of land, economy, etc., and told them why the world was in chaos in the late dynasty.
Because there are more people, and the aristocratic families occupy most of the resources, the people at the bottom cannot survive, so naturally they can only rise up. Then with the war and the death of a large number of people, the resources are freed up, and then the world will be peaceful for a period of time. , and then repeat the previous cycle.
This is very similar to the four great ninja wars in the ninja world. When the number of ninjas increases, the tasks will naturally be less. If so many ninjas cannot be fed, what should we do? If more ninjas die in the war, the tasks will naturally be enough. .
In the ninja world, for the ninja village, this is a mission that we grabbed through the war. In fact, they don’t know it at all. It is indeed a mission that we grabbed, but it was not snatched from other villages, but from the dead ninjas. Grabbed from him.
"Is there no way to end this cycle?" Xu Ziling suddenly spoke after being silent for a long time. For Koo Zhong, fighting for hegemony is only his interest. Otherwise, it would be difficult to say that after conquering the world, he would give up the throne to others. Come and sit.
Although Xu Ziling has no interest in fighting for world hegemony, he is actually the most compassionate. Otherwise, he would not have been deceived by his concubine Xuan into helping Li Shimin instead of helping his brother Kou Zhong, his friend who had shared life and death since childhood.
"Of course there is a way to end it, but it is very difficult to do. It can be said that no one else will do it except me."
"What is the solution?" Xu Ziling immediately asked.
"Actually, it is very simple to solve this problem. In the final analysis, it is all about profit. In fact, for ordinary people, as long as they can live well, no one cares who the emperor is." Finally, Shen Fei put the tax Two words were spoken.
"There is a saying that harsh government is fiercer than tigers. In fact, this sentence does not apply to everyone, but only to those who need to pay taxes. Those who do not pay taxes will not care about this."
To put it bluntly, how much taxes can be paid to farmers? The real tax revenue comes from aristocratic families, Buddhists and other forces, but in this era, these people do not need to pay taxes.
Even with the audacity of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, after understanding the meaning of Shen Fei's words, they immediately became silent. This matter is really a bit too crazy, especially combined with what Shen Fei taught them before. Knowledge, just one imperial examination has made Yang Guang almost the enemy of the whole world.
If all those aristocratic families are taxed, then the whole world will truly be the enemy.
"By the way, you should have met Li Shimin before. He helped the world and saved the people. Do you know who gave him this name?"
"I know. I heard from him that when he was four years old, a person who was good at fortune telling came to his family. When he read his fortune, he said, "When he reaches twenty, he will be able to help the world and bring peace to the people. I said before that he has The emperor's fate. "Kou Zhong immediately said with a smile.
"That's true. He does have the emperor's destiny, because this is a plan made by some people twenty years ago, a plan to choose the emperor on behalf of heaven. The person who read his fortune is not an ordinary person. It's true. It’s Sanren Ning Daoqi.”
Speaking of this, Shen Fei's expression was full of sarcasm. He didn't believe that if he told Shuanglong about this now, Shi Feixuan and others could still fool them. What would happen at that time would definitely be very interesting. Shen Fei came to teach the two, and he wanted to see the faces of Shi Feixuan, Cihang Jingzhai, and Jingnian Zen Sect at that time.
"What?" Kou Zhong exclaimed immediately.
"Are you surprised?"
In fact, Shen Fei had no idea who read Li Shimin's fortune. It might not be Ning Daoqi, but Shen Fei naturally gave Ning Daoqi the credit. After all, he was a person who supported the plan to select the emperor on behalf of the heaven. Even if he wanted to whitewash himself, it would be impossible.
"Cihang Jingzhai, you know this sect, more than 20 years ago, they joined forces with Jingnian Zen Sect, Ning Daoqi and others to formulate the plan to select the emperor on behalf of the heaven. It can be said that the current chaos in the world was caused by their deliberate arrangement, so that the person they chose would have the opportunity to become the emperor."
If the world is not in chaos, how could Li Shimin have the opportunity to become the emperor?
"Why do they do this?" Xu Ziling's eyes changed in an instant.
"Do you know that Emperor Wu of Liang starved to death? In fact, there is a country called Tianzhu far away from the Central Plains. Buddhism came from there. In Tianzhu, whether the emperor can ascend to the throne depends on kneeling to Buddhism."
Shen Fei slowly told him about some of the Buddhist situations he knew, then looked at Xu Ziling and continued: "They want Buddhism to reach the status of Tianzhu in the Central Plains, that is to say, they want to establish the so-called Buddhist country on earth. Even if they want to starve the emperor to death, they can starve him to death at will."
"Choosing the emperor on behalf of the heaven, what a big tone." Kou Zhong was also angry. As a person who is determined to fight for the world, this sentence is the most disgusting.
"Don't underestimate Cihang Jingzhai. Every generation of their disciples are born with peerless beauties. As long as a man sees them, few people will not bow down to them. This is the case with Sanren Ning Daoqi, and Song Clan's Tiandao Song Que. In terms of beauty traps, no one in the world can compare to Cihang Jingzhai. You may not understand what I'm saying now, but if you meet this generation of Cihang Jingzhai's successor, Shi Feixuan, you will understand why I said so."
The so-called spoiler is fun for a while, and it's fun to spoil it all the time.
"Brother Shen, the reason you tell us these things is to let us be careful of Shi Feixuan?" Xu Ziling seemed to have reacted at this time.
"Just remind you not to be fooled. I know you two are very smart, but you are far behind in terms of knowledge."
Shen Fei did not deny Xu Ziling's words. Anyway, he used an open conspiracy. The same thing, from different angles, can see different results.
Just like now, he told Xu Ziling and the others about the extravagance of Buddhism in advance. Once they arrived at the Jingnian Zen Temple and saw the situation there, they would definitely think of what he said today.
Shi Feixuan herself had no ill intentions, which Shen Fei could probably confirm, but it was hard to say about Fan Qinghui, Liaokong, and Ning Daoqi behind her.
Shen Fei was now looking forward to seeing their expressions when they came to nothing.
