Chapter 103 Goodbye (2)

Zheng Bo Duan Yu Yan is a very famous historical event in "Zuo Zhuan". Even in Chen Kai's time, many people who were interested in history were familiar with this story.

This story is a very famous textbook-level example of power struggle. The performance of Zheng Zhuanggong has been interpreted by countless people from various aspects, and even many people in history have imitated Zheng Zhuanggong.

This story was an assignment that Chen Kai left to the three of them yesterday, allowing them to understand its meaning on their own. In this regard, Chen Yonghua, Ke Ping and Hong Lei expressed their own thoughts, but in Chen Kai's ears, they could not understand the meaning.

None of them can break away from the Confucian theory of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness.

Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness are not unreasonable. They are of great benefit to people's hearts in the world. Chen Kai remembered that many people in later generations called it feudal dross, but if you think about it carefully, these ideas stabilized the social order, made society stable, and made it possible for the people to live in peace.

I'm happy. Apart from that, at least it's better than the old moral system collapsing, a new moral system being delayed, and the society being in an almost amoral state.

These three people are all descendants of officials. Some of their fathers are already earls, some are civil servants, and some are military generals. However, they are able to study and understand so well, probably because they are too young.

I'm afraid it's also mixed with the fear that if I say it, it will leave a bad-hearted comment or impression.

It's a pity that since Chen Kai left this homework for them, he wanted to pollute these children so that they would not have to pay for it when they were sold in the future, especially his godson Chen Yonghua. Isn't this the case in political struggles in history?

Will you end up depressed only if you fail?

"Have you ever noticed how Duke Zheng Zhuang responded when Duke Duan requested to enfeoff the city and when the official Ji Zhong persuaded Duke Zheng Zhuang?"

When Chen Kai asked, the three of them just recalled it for a moment, and Hong Lei, who had the most cheerful temperament, replied: "Jiang's desire..." At this point, Hong Lei's eyes suddenly lit up, along with Chen Yonghua and Ke Ping.

The same is true.

"If you do too much injustice, you will surely die. I will treat you like this!"

"Yes! Anyone who commits unjust acts will be punished by death. Zheng Zhuanggong has long seen that under the arrogance of his mother Wu Jiang, Master Duan will cause chaos sooner or later, so he simply allows him to do whatever he wants. When Master Duan really makes people and gods angry,

At that time, if he started to seek peace, no one would say that Duke Zhuang of Zheng could not tolerate his younger brother. There were many such examples later, such as Huainan King Liu Chang who was so arrogant and domineering that he even privately killed Piyanghou Shenshi, a veteran of Han Emperor Gaozu's time.

However, Emperor Wen of Han still indulged his people, but when King Huainan returned to the feudal state, Emperor Wen of Han in Chang'an immediately knew that Liu Chang had the intention to rebel. Isn't this strange? "

Chen Kai's words were like opening a door to a new world. They still needed more time to digest these things, but Chen Kai suddenly remembered the relationship between him and Shi Lang, Zheng Chenggong and Shi Lang, but he still

Shaking his head, at least he was now on the front line of the confrontation with Shi Lang. This could not be changed, and Zheng Chenggong obviously had no intention of changing this competition model.

"There is a saying in the West that if God wants to destroy something, he must first make it crazy. Lao Tzu also said that if God wants it to perish, he must make it crazy. It can be seen that wise men have many things in common regardless of things. And Zheng Zhuanggong and

Emperor Wen of Han, they just played the role of God and God, and used arrogance to get rid of their political opponents, even their younger brothers, that's all."

Political fighting is a science. Chen Kai had earlier suspected that Hong Xu had the idea of ​​flattering him, but it turned out that Hong Xu was just an old slicker who was good at placing bets and could see the situation clearly. This old slicker put his political

Wisdom is wrapped in the cloak of loyalty and kindness. At first, it was only material support. Later, when Chen Kai captured Chaozhou, Hong Xu made a decisive move and sent his son to his sect.

The company's position within the group will become more stable.

Hong Xu has done such a thing in history. Chen Yonghua’s first wife, Hong Shuzhen, the woman who resolutely chose to commit suicide after Chen Yonghua’s death, is Hong Xu’s daughter. Now thinking about it, it seems that Hong Lei sitting here today is only Hong Xu’s daughter.

It was just a one-time bet. Of course, he probably really hoped that Hong Lei could learn something from Chen Kai. After all, Chen Kai's ability was enough to make many people stunned.

"It's not a fuel-efficient lamp."

The class ended quickly. Instead, Chen Kai sat in the study and reflected on his current biggest opponent, Shi Lang. The records in history books have clearly defined his personality, but Chen Kai always

I feel that under the arrogant and domineering appearance, there may be something even more shocking, especially once I think of Shi Lang's performance before and after he captured Taiwan for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, I can't help but have that reverie.

"Don't worry, the historical trend has not changed much yet, there is always time to see Shi Lang clearly."

There was nothing to say all night, and on the next day, Chen Kai asked the servant Dong Yougu brought him outside the courtyard to greet him and then went on duty as usual. However, his first job today was to announce enrollment and other announcements. With his military strength

As the director of the Arms Bureau joins the army, he issues enrollment orders to the military dependents on Nan'ao Island and the school-age children of the family members of the Arms Bureau's current personnel.

Regarding schools, Chen Kai knows very well that in this era, children from lower-class families also have to do housework to help their families make ends meet. They are also part of the labor force, so many people are unwilling to let them go to school, especially when they are often required to attend school.

To purchase pens, inks, paper, inkstones, and related books, these costs are too huge and cannot be afforded by ordinary people. It is like that in later generations, there will be many such people in border and poverty-stricken areas.

In this regard, Chen Kai's solution was free board and lodging, free school uniforms, and priority in being assigned to work in the Ordnance Bureau after graduation. Food, accommodation, clothing, and job assignments were all included. Chen Kai suddenly discovered that he

He had already moved himself.

"A great, selfless pioneer dedicated to the welfare of the working class."

Chen Kai thought this was a good statement, but he soon realized a problem, that is, these generous benefits seemed to only move him. Many military families and employees who came for consultation were more concerned about the distribution of work.

, rather than really being able to learn any skills, which made Chen Kai feel a little helpless.

"Entrance exam! Not everyone is qualified to enter our Ordnance Bureau-affiliated school. We only accept those children who have potential for development."

As soon as this statement came out, many people backed down, but more people worked harder to push their children forward. It seemed that they saw the hope and possibility of changing their family status from this Laoshizi's entrance exam.

"Damn, what you give for free really doesn't taste sweet."

Shaking his head, Chen Kai went back to go on duty as always, and when he got off duty, the three children were waiting outside the courtyard gate as always. Only this time, just as Chen Kai briefly explained yesterday's homework, the boy became mysterious

He came over anxiously. When Chen Kai saw him like this, he understood what was going to happen in just a moment.
Chapter completed!
