Chapter 392: Knocking the legitimate son

Lu Jishan carefully analyzed the current situation to Aye and made a careful defense;

Your Majesty’s eyes are red with shortage of money. How could he agree to be so squandered? Based on common sense, he did not dare to agree to his seven-month-month-digit number. Not to mention me, no one dared to agree.”

Old Situ looked at his parents and children with a expressionless face, and his old man's voice was powerful;

"Yes, now that the new dynasty is first established, all the people in the world are hungry, the rules must be re-specified, and the laws must also be changed. Even a small county-level yamen needs to be modified as a whole. It can be said that there is no place to pay for money. At this moment, those who can help the emperor gather silver, money, silk and silk are heroes.

It’s like when the world was in chaos, the heroes were the ones who could stand on the side of Tiance’s mansion. The current situation is not the same as before. We use suggestions and fighting on the battlefield to exchange for credit.”

Seeing that Aye finally agreed with his point of view, Lu Jishan also showed a gratified smile, and finally felt a little nervous;

"Yes, that's exactly what Aye said. Look at Li Dalang, who made horseshoe boots, saved the court a lot of money and immediately became a founding county.

The transaction of liquor was determined to take out half of the share and profits and hand them over to the court, and transformed into a noble founding county prince!

At that time, those old ministers in Tiance Mansion and generals who were granted the title of county magistrates were not full of military achievements, and which one was not full of scars? Which one was not a minister who had been loyal to His Majesty for more than ten years?

But Li Dalang was not bleeding and injured, nor had he killed a thief, and he had no open plans or strange strategies.

If you do two things casually, you will be promoted one after another. If you continue like this, one day, you will be promoted to the position of Duke. You will earn back the fruits of your life without having to become an official. It is really envious to others..."

"Yes, I know this too. Even if I can't find a way to get silver, money and silk for the emperor, it's a good thing to save some.

If you don’t have the ability to make money and have to spend too much money, how can you be liked? How can the emperor improve your title and official position?"

"Yes, yes, that's not right. Aye really talked to Er's heart."

Lu Jishan's face had a little more smile. Old Situ looked at his son's nerves slowly relaxed and continued his already organized words;

"As a minister, of course, we must serve the king, and of course we must follow the emperor's will. If we fight against the emperor, we will definitely not have any good results. Jishan, my son, can I say the right thing?"

"Aya's clear understanding, every sentence is in the truth."

"Well, then I asked you, Wei Zheng and Doctor Wei not only did not follow His Majesty's ideas, but instead opposed His Majesty everywhere.

Sometimes he was still at court meetings, and in front of all the civil and military officials, he could not get out of Taiwan. His predecessor was Prince Yin's men. Isn't this a mortal act? Why didn't the emperor kill his entire family? Why didn't he destroy his tribes?"

"Ah? This... I'm thinking..."

Lu Jishan was being followed by a relaxed and pleasant conversation. Suddenly, Lao Aye's painting style turned sharply and the problem was extremely sharp. Lu Jishan was caught off guard and could not speak in detail, so he began to hesitate.

"Since you think you should follow the emperor and be the king's way, then it is absolutely not necessary to go against the emperor. Why did Wei Zheng rise step by step and be valued by the emperor everywhere, and even give him a roast chicken?"

"This...this..."

"You don't need this or that. Tell Aye, why should Wei Zheng dare to contradict the emperor, why should he dare to stop the Nine Five Lords?"

"explain!"

"Yes, Qibing Aye, Doctor Wei is different from others."

"Oh? What's the difference? Let me tell you something?"

"When Aye said, Doctor Wei is upright, not for himself. He is thinking about His Majesty's stability in the country. How can His Majesty not like him with such a selfless spirit?"

The old Situ looked at the preview almost as soon as possible, looked at his son with a smile, and began to guide the topic;

"Oh? Doctor Wei has to give up a lot of things. For the sake of the stability of the emperor's country, he gave up the opportunity to flatter others and gave up the opportunity to be a minister. Not only did he become annoying, but he also became annoying. Why is that?

Alas... it’s better to keep yourself clean, cherish yourself, preserve your reputation, and be a minister. Wouldn’t it be beautiful, beautiful?"

After saying the last sentence, Old Situ began to shake his head, even exaggeratedly showing an extremely regretful expression, and looked at him with disdain...

Lu Jishan, who had slowly entered the state that Old Situ wanted, filtered out his thoughts and began to stubbornly defend himself;

"Qi Ye, if Doctor Wei refused to give up those, how could he get the respect and appreciation of Your Majesty? It is the kind of thing that is willing to give up himself and consider for Your Majesty everywhere, and sometimes even offends His Majesty and risk being killed. He has gained the admiration and respect of everyone,

This won the respect and love of His Majesty. If he cherishes everything, he will not be willing to let go of it here and there, and wants to get a lot. Wouldn't it be a contradiction? Aye dare not answer this randomly. Please forgive me!"

Old Situ was very happy when he heard his son's words on the road, but he did not dare to relax at all.

At this moment, this dear son is already wandering on the verge of enlightenment. As long as you guide it well today, you can immediately climb out of the horns once you wake up. In the future, you will no longer have to worry about this son.

"Oh? Then according to your opinion, Dr. Wei gave up some things, and at the same time he also got some things. According to you, it was because he was willing to give up that he was appreciated by the emperor?"

"It is true that Aye, the principles of the world are all right. Didn't Aye often teach us brothers like this? Why did he ignore these things when he arrived at Aye?

If you don’t want to give a little, you want to get a lot. How can there be such an easy thing in the world…”

Lu Jishan's thoughts became clearer and more stable, and he returned to his previous calmness. However, before he finished speaking, Aye pressed his step by step, speaking as fast as the wind, and his posture was like a strong wind sweeping away fallen leaves, which directly interrupted his thinking;

"Since you say you have something to give up and gain, why do you hesitate when deciding the price of wine? Why can't you argue with reason?

As long as it is bright and open, without selfishness, and set a favorable point for the wealthy people, if it is in line with the emperor's purpose of long-term stability and the future situation, why can't we argue according to reason and why can't we support Li Dalang's ideas?

Li Dalang is far-sighted and has a long-term vision. Why can't you get closer to the overall situation and look at the long-term distance?

If you have greater benefits to the emperor, then even if you debate the Taihe Hall, you should stick to your position and not retreat at all. Li Dalang's consideration in this matter is a open plot that takes into account the overall situation, and you need strong support.

Even if the emperor is unhappy because of the temporary dilemma in front of him, in the long run, it is good for the emperor and the court, so he can let go of his hands.

The emperor did not walk with his head covered, and there were powerful people around him. How could he not consider a long-term plan?

You dare not think about pricing at the bottom, it is nothing more than worrying that the court is waiting to use money, and should try to save expenses and think more about the emperor. However, you only look in front of you but not too far. This is the biggest flaw!

A short-sighted person will never become a great talent. If a person has no long-term contempt, he will have immediate worries. This is the great truth that Aye taught you many times. Do you still remember a word?

At present, we should consider saving expenses and expanding profits, but in the long run, the price of this wine is set lower, which will give more profits to the big players and facilitate the emperor to stabilize the overall situation.

If you grasp the hearts of half of the aristocratic families in the world, the world will be able to maintain long-term stability. From the overall perspective, if you earn less money and silk, you will get a stable situation. Why not do it?

From the long-term perspective, the wealthy families followed the court to get the benefits. Then the prestige of the court has increased day by day. If there is a call in the future, everyone in the world will respond. Isn’t this what the emperor wants?

What you fear is nothing more than cherishing your reputation, wealth, life and unwilling to give up easily. So, according to what you said just now, what Doctor Wei does,

The king is to give up and gain. You are unwilling to give up your reputation, unwilling to give up your opportunity to be a minister, and unwilling to offend the emperor's current advantage because of the price of wine. Therefore, you dare not speak, do not want to speak, and do not nod to agree with Li Dalang's actions.

People like you who don’t want to give up a little, and you still want to come to me to ask me about the secret method of being an official who is below and above thousands of people. How can you have the attitude to say it? I am ashamed of you.

You don’t want to give up anything, but you are envious and jealous. Li Dalang’s rise and noble title have you ever thought about how much did Li Dalang give up?

He can take out the secret method of Wuliangye and the immortal intoxication in ten years, or he can enter the prime of his life twenty years and have enough self-protection ability to bring the white wine into the world.

Now, he has given half of his profits to the court and the emperor without reservation. The remaining half has to be equally matched with a group of important officials. Do you know how much he has abandoned?

When he made horseshoe boots, he not only did not seek credit or asked the court for a lot of money, but instead paid out of his own pocket, asking the blacksmiths in the village to work day and night to create enough horseshoe boots for the emperor. People gave up so much, but they had no complaints and did not care about what they got.

With all this, do you still think that the title of founding county magistrate was easily obtained?

In my opinion, these actions are worth at least one county official, but why did the emperor suppress him and only give him the title of founding county magistrate?

It is not difficult for smart people to guess that Li Dalang's future future is limitless. His Majesty deliberately suppressed him, and the purpose is to reuse him in the future. Can't you still see it?

Compare that Li Dalang, what you have done and what you have given up, you have just been loyal to the emperor for thirteen years.

The emperor can give you a county baron because of your hard work. If you want to improve your title and official position, you have to make your own efforts and earn it desperately.

Not only do you not be grateful to the emperor, but you also blame yourself for being a county man. In my opinion, you are just a guy who is afraid of wolves on the left, tigers on the right, and mouse on the middle, even if you give you a county man, you will be too much to praise you.

Even farmers and the people know the truth that you get what you sow. In this world, people who want to get what you don’t want to give are all fools!

Only by giving step by step and giving up little by little can we win the future continuous gains and obtain them continuously. This is the kingly chess.”

Old Situ said so much like a cannon, which completely fooled Lu Jishan. He opened his mouth wide and looked at Old Aye, who had been as steady as Mount Tai for half his life, and was stunned!

He never thought that Aye, who was in a stable manner, could speak so quickly in the previous dynasty, and was even more powerful than those who were talking.

Old Situ finished what he wanted to say in one breath, looking at his surprised son, he knew clearly that it was at this moment that the fire was adding fuel to the fire. Can he guide his son to another level, which is today.

Old Situ felt that he had to be a wake-up call and wake him up with a blow, otherwise no matter how much mist you waste today, all your efforts will be wasted.

With the lightning of thoughts, Old Situ picked up the two big words he had written just now, raised his hands to face his son, and shouted;

"Lu Jishan, how do you read these two words?"

Lu Jishan was surprised that this old Aye was different from his previous crazy appearance. Aye suddenly shouted angrily, which scared Lu Jishan to tremble all over and shivered fiercely.

When Lao Aye was talking to him, he wrote two black words. It turned out that he was written for himself. The big words on the white paper were vigorous and powerful, with edges and corners like a knife and axe carved. There was a big word "She" on the rice paper, and the lower part was followed by the word "De" dipped in ink.

Lu Jishan looked at the two black characters, then looked at Aye's face. After repeating this several times, he finally focused his eyes on the two black characters and kept muttering in his mouth;

"Give up, give up, give up, have to give up and gain, without giving up, there is no gain..."

Old Situ looked at his son who had completely calmed down and was thinking of giving up. The light in his eyes became more and more, and began to come out. Old Situ didn't dare to take a breath, just waiting for his beloved son to wake up quickly.

Lu Jiaojiao next to her also understood the key point today. She kept breathing quietly and was now by her side of Aye, watching her brother suddenly realize.

Lu Jishan's muttering voice became louder and louder, his eyes became more and more vivid. Suddenly, his whole body trembled violently for a few times, and he returned to calm again.

Lu Jishan slowly raised his head, looked at the elderly old Aye calmly, holding up the rice paper hands. As time went by, Lu Jishan walked over without saying a word, took the rice paper and put it on the table.

He took three steps back, solemnly tidy up his clothes, straightened the crown belt on his head, lifted up the hem of his official uniform, knelt down respectfully, leaned down and touched the ground with his head. Although his voice was crying, he tried hard to keep it steady;

"I thank Aye for teaching and taught this secret method of being an official. When I think of my previous actions, I feel extremely ashamed and have no face to face Aye. I have made many mistakes. Please punish Aye heavily."

Lu Situ looked at his dear son's momentum at this time from inside to outside, and changed drastically. He was still the same person, but everything was different!

Looking at the dear son who grew up again, the elderly Lu Situ finally couldn't bear it. Two lines of old tears fell down. Lu Jiaojiao next to her also cried excitedly, and while crying, she wiped the turbid tears for Aye's family...

The happy old Situ finally stopped his excitement and stretched out his hands to pull up his son on the ground;

"Jishan, my son, you are mature, Aye will never have to worry about you again. From today on, you will be in line with my Fanyang Lu family and the heir to the second house clan leader."
