Chapter 170: No one will protect me

Happy May Day, happy reading—

"Slow!" Liu Ming stopped Xun Yu, Xun You and the others.

When Guo Jia saw Liu Ming speak, out of trust in his lord Liu Ming, he stopped what he wanted to say.

Xun Yu didn't believe that Liu Ming, who could make Guo Jia and his uncle Xun Shuang, was a person with no ambitions, so he looked at Liu Ming with interest, preparing to see what Liu Ming could say.

Only Xun You still looked angry at this moment and said to Liu Ming: "What else is there?"

Liu Ming sank his face and said, "Although I am a border town and a small place, it is not a place where you can come or leave at will!"

As Liu Ming said this, Guo Jia next to him complained secretly. It was not that Guo Jia was worried that Liu Ming would take ruthlessly to harm Xun Yu and Xun You. After all, Guo Jia knew Liu Ming and knew that Liu Ming would never do this. But Guo Jia knew clearly that Xun Yu and Xun You would never take this trick. Guo Jia said in his heart: Lord, lord. How could you say that? Didn’t I remind you to treat him with the courtesy of a national scholar? Although Guo Jia complained in his heart, he began to make rapid calculations in his mind, thinking about how to recover the loss and keep Xun Yu and Xun You.

If you want to say that the temperament that Liu Ming has developed in recent years is originally a person who is not angry, but now his face is even more murderous and terrifying when he speaks harshly. If this were an ordinary person, he would have surrendered long ago. But who is Xun Yu and Xun You? He didn't take Liu Ming seriously at all.

Especially Xun You was extremely brave. As early as when Dong Zhuo was in chaos, Xun You planned to assassinate Dong Zhuo with his counselor Zheng Tai, He Yong, Shizhong Zong Ji, Yueqin, and Wu Qiong. At that time, Xun You once said: "Dong Zhuo is unrighteous, and everyone in the world resents him. Although he has strong soldiers, he is actually a brave man. We should assassinate him to thank the people, and then assist the king's orders to command the world. This is Huan Wen's act." How brave was Xun You? But later, the matter was not discovered. He Yong and Xun You were arrested by Dong Zhuo and were imprisoned. He Yong committed suicide with fear, and Xun You spoke and steadfast, and how he put life and death outside the control.

Now, after hearing Liu Mingdi's words, Xun You sneered and said, "Everyone in the world says that the Taiwei is kind and righteous. Now it seems that this is the case. For the sake of the world, life and death can be left out, and everything else is no problem. Could it be that Taiwei still wants to kill us, such as the Qingliu? It should be noted that killing us, those two of us, is easy, but it will be difficult for Taiwei to block the Qingliu in the world. And even if we die tragically, we will not be an official under the command of an incompetent person!" After that, Xun You put his hands on his back, twisted his face, and stopped looking at Liu Ming. He put on an air of whatever you like.

Xun Yu was also slightly disappointed that Liu Ming would say this. He felt that if Liu Ming's ability was just like this, it would be really not very good. Guo Jia was even a secret bead.

When Liu Ming saw the performance of Xun Yu and Xun You, he was also very impressed by the courage of these two people.

At this moment, Liu Ming smiled and got on the chair. He said to Xun Yu with a slight smile, and Xun You said: "Don't be anxious, two of you. I will not treat you anything. It's just that you call yourself a pure streamer, and others also say that you are wise men, and Fengxiao praised you both. Now that you leave like this, wouldn't it mean that you are a hypocrite and a hypocritical person? And I will definitely tell the world your true face."

The sudden rise of Liu Ming's strange peak made everyone stunned. I wonder where Liu Ming's words began.

Xun Yu was somewhat expecting Liu Ming's performance, but Xun You was so angry that he trembled a little, "Why did Grandmaster say this? Although my uncle and nephew are not burdened by false reputation, they cannot tolerate you slander our reputation. People in the world will not be easily deceived by you."

Liu Ming laughed and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. Don't be the world's people at any time. Just the two of you, what does it have to do with the world?" Then, Liu Ming did not wait for Xun You to reply and continued, "Don't be dissatisfied. I'll ask you. You two are famous. Why do you want to be an official?"

Xun You said proudly: "We care about the people of the world and have the ambition to pacify troubled times. We want to serve the court and live up to the talents we have learned in our lives. Of course we have to be an official. However, because of this, we have to find a wise ruler to assist him. Unfortunately, the Taiwei is so famous that he is not worthy of my service."

"Hehe. Are you really the one who came out to be an official for the sake of the people of the world and the Han Dynasty as you said?" Liu Ming asked Xun You with disdain.

"Of course!" Xun You said firmly by Liu Ming's expression.

"Okay! Since you said you are for the people of the world, do you know what the people of the world need? Is it your strategy for a strong country or your saints' remarks?" Liu Ming asked provocatively.

No one really thought of Liu Ming’s question about Liu Ming, let alone Xun You, even everyone present had never thought of it. In the past, everyone said that it was for the people of Dawn, but the people really wanted something, and these people really didn’t understand what they wanted. To say that they built a country with a strong military force, abundant national treasury, and then taught the sages to speak, these seemed to have nothing to do with the people of Dawn. But they all seemed to have something to do with the people of Dawn. Everyone couldn’t help but fall into deep thought for a moment.

But Xun You is worthy of being Xun You. He immediately thought about it and said: "The people need to live and work in peace and prosperity. Those who ensure that the people can live and work in peace and prosperity must have a strong military support. Only when a country's military is strong can these people cultivate fields and farm and sell them with peace and stability. Under stability, the people also need the words of the sage philosophers to understand etiquette, be honest and shame, and guide rules. Therefore, although the strategies to strengthen the army and enrich the country are not what the people need most, they are the only way to realize the wishes of the people."

"Okay! That's right. But these are just empty theories. How do you realize your ideals of strengthening soldiers and enriching the country?" Liu Ming asked again.

This time, Liu Ming's question happened to ask Xun You the itch in his heart. Xun You usually thinks about these questions. When Liu Ming asked, Xun You couldn't help but answer: "Inside, we should build water conservancy, reclaim wasteland, and let those who farm their land; outside, we should train armored soldiers and rectify military affairs, so that all the princes dare to invade."

Liu Ming laughed and said, "It's good to get it, but how can you ensure that the wasteland you have reclaimed will not be stolen by the clan tyrants? How can the armored soldiers you train will not be stolen by the leaders?"

At this time, Xun You had already fallen into Liu Ming's trap. When he heard Liu Ming questioning, he immediately retorted: "I will rectify officials and make the officials clean. This hidden danger should be eliminated."

Liu Ming laughed again and said, "Then how can you achieve integrity in administration?"

Obviously, Xun You thought about this issue, and Xun You immediately said without hesitation: "Friends with gentlemen, stays away from villains, and formulates laws. With the censor and the officials, they can make the government clean and honest."

Liu Ming still laughed and said, "It's right. But even if you are the censor and you are extremely honest, you can't check all the officials in the world alone. You must need the assistance of others. But people's hearts are separated from each other, and you cannot fully know what kind of person the officials under your command are. Therefore, the officials under your command will inevitably have corrupt and abusers. You unfortunately appoint this person. In this way, with Qu Zhezhi, how can you ensure that the inspectors under your command will not be in harmony with the local abusers? And even if you are a sage, you cannot be proficient in all walks of life and everything in the world. If there are places you don't understand, how should you deal with it?"

This time, Liu Ming had no words to ask Xun You. After all, Liu Ming's questions were all based on assumptions, but once the assumption was established, except for overturning the assumptions, he would definitely fall into the conclusion of the assumptions. Xun You was also a person who was sincere in serving the people and was a more realistic person. He was careless and followed Liu Ming's question and naturally fell into Liu Ming's ditch. Now Xun You fell into the contradiction of how he was not omnipotent, how to deal with all things, how to deal with so many things with him. As for why he started a debate with Liu Ming, he had long forgotten everything.

The more anxious Xun You was at this time, the more he could not turn. The more he could not turn, the more anxious he was. Xun You couldn't help but start to walk, saying, "This, this..."

Xun Yu just watched quietly from the side without saying a word. But Xun Yu couldn't help but praise Liu Ming's eloquence in his heart. However, Xun Yu still thought in his heart: Master Taiwei, it is not enough to just rely on these empty words. Let me show it again. What I want to assist is the overlord who can dominate the world, not a lingering person with empty words. Let me see what your ambition and strength are.

When Guo Jia saw Xun You like this, he finally felt relieved and felt that his lord was really a master. He made Xun You look like this with just a few words. However, this was just a temporary attempt to make Xun Yu and Xun You and the other two not leave. But how could he change the impression of the two of them for the lord and make them sincerely assist the lord? Guo Jia couldn't help but look forward to Liu Ming's next performance.

At this time, Liu Ming saw that Xun You was almost anxious. Then he said slowly: "Okay. OK. Don't think about it. Just based on what you just said, it is enough to prove that you are a person who really wants to do things for the people. You can stay with me and become an official."

At this time, Xun You was just thinking in a daze. When he heard Liu Ming talking like this, he subconsciously thought that Liu Ming had been asking him this way because he came to ask for an official position and taught his own skills. Therefore, he said casually: "I thanked the Grand Master Taiwei for appreciation. I will definitely serve the Grand Master Taiwei." But as soon as Xun You finished speaking, he understood in his heart. He immediately changed his words and said, "Why are you working for you?" Xun You was angry and fell into Liu Ming's words. He even threw the demeanor he always maintained aside.

Liu Ming laughed and said, "Why? Let me ask you, what would you do to that person if someone could realize all your ideals and wishes?"

Xun You replied without hesitation: "Of course, you must follow this person for the rest of your life and assist this person in achieving this achievement for all generations."

Liu Ming smiled and said, "Isn't this going to be done? What you said has been realized long ago in Youzhou. Let's talk about the internal affairs of our Youzhou first. We build water conservancy and reclaim wasteland, and there is no agricultural tax. Therefore, although a large number of refugees have poured in, we can still meet the needs of all the people for arable land. And even those refugees cannot own land, they can still work for those who have excess land. In our Youzhou, land can be bought and sold, but not rented. If a person owns too much land, he can only recruit other people to farm, and these people work

The wages are clearly marked. Moreover, after harvesting, these tillers can also get a certain proportion of the food they harvested. Moreover, even if these landless people do not arable land, they can also work in other workshops or mines. In Youzhou, we also sold grain in a farm and stolen the price of grain, so that the grain price in Youzhou is far lower than that of other counties, so that those who do not arable land can also buy food cheaply. In short, as long as they are willing to work hard, they will definitely be able to eat and drink enough and live and work in peace. Besides, the salaries of our officials in Youzhou are four times that of our small and small officials in Youzhou are four times that of others, which can make me go

The officials of all sizes in the state will not be corrupt and sell the law because they have no money or are not paid enough. Moreover, we have the "people's sentiment" that can sue the officials, so that officials dare not violate the law and discipline. We also have various newspapers in Youzhou to inspire the wisdom of the people, spread the words of sages, make the people polite and shame. At the same time, we also supervise the shortcomings of officials of all sizes. In this way, the clean government of our Youzhou can reach the greatest extent. Although we dare not say that there are absolutely no violations of laws and disciplines. However, it is definitely much less than other places. Finally, let’s talk about the military of our Youzhou. The soldiers of our Youzhou have worked hard and well-equipped, and the soldiers use their lives.
