Seven people died, and all the truly powerful officials in this area died. Those who had only a little power, similar to the village chiefs of later generations, lived a harder life than ordinary villagers, and they were still considered ordinary people.
While Li Yuanxing was having breakfast, Wei Ting came to Li Yuanxing: "Your Highness, they recommended General Niu as the new official here to be in charge of everything here. General Niu did not receive instructions from the government and chose to refuse."
"Today, I heard that Crescent Bay is good. The princesses have been working hard these days. Let them go and have a rest. The female guests who are accompanying the ship can also go. Today we are here to do some things that men of the Tang Dynasty should do.
Don't let women participate in fighting, killing, etc."
Wei Ting nodded, he would not arrange such a thing.
Qiuxiang took over the order and left Yuanchun and Qiulan to serve Li Yuanxing. The others were going to Crescent Bay to stay for a few days, and they were naturally guarded by the female cavalry. Although the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was not as rigid as that of the Song and Ming Dynasties.
, but it’s not yet possible for men and women to play in the sea at the same time.
After arranging his princess and the female guests on the boat, Li Yuanxing ordered the conveners.
The same people who were in the meeting that day.
"I know your idea. If you want to fight, I'll fight you. But besides beating, there are many other methods that can be used. Beating is the kindest thing." Li Yuanxing made his attitude clear as soon as he entered the room.
Well said, beating is the kindest thing.
No more than three people present could understand this sentence.
It can be said with certainty that apart from Changsun Wuji, Cui Junsu, and Wei Ting, I really don’t know if anyone can fully understand it.
"The clipper returned to China and told Ci Ku. The time has come to see if his practice is enough. Here are also some people who believe in Buddhism. They believe in Buddhism that was passed down hundreds of years ago, so we must guide them. Of course, there are
Some people have no faith at all, and the Taoism of the Tang Dynasty can guide them and purify their hearts."
Li Yuanxing gave instructions very firmly.
"Your Highness, I, as a Confucian, can also advise people to meditate and do good." Wei Ting also responded beside him.
"This Confucianism is also divided into sects. Let Wei Changshi choose. Here, it is different from before. These people are still living in darkness. Our Tang Dynasty is the light. Those who are willing to give their hearts to the Tang Dynasty can enjoy what others enjoy.
Everything is less than that. This is a process and there must be a difference."
Niu Jinda was anxious: "Your Highness, my matter here has not been resolved yet?"
"Can't you even manage your own fief? I will teach you that the translator is the obedient dog in front of you. Let your dog be the chief official here. The disobedient dog will be beaten to death with sticks.
No?" Li Yuanxing's tone carried a chilling air, and this expression was the King of Qin in the hearts of all the powerful men.
Only when he was conquering cities and territories for the Tang Dynasty did the King of Qin show his murderous intent.
Niu Jinda was still puzzled. He was not afraid that Li Yuanxing would get angry, so he asked again: "Your Highness, what if this obedient dog is too ambitious?"
"This..." Li Yuanxing stopped.
Cui Junsu smiled: "Your Highness doesn't want to say it, let me tell you. Your Highness has played a very clever trick in the court, that is, Gao Chaotang will never be controlled by a certain force. In other words, the court will never be controlled by a certain force."
The forces above will definitely fight against each other for their own interests. According to His Highness's method, when the dignitaries in the court stop fighting, they will unite to fight against the Holy Emperor and the King of Qin. Your Highness thinks that what I said is correct."
Li Yuanxing said nothing, and Cui Junsu directly stated the core of the taboo.
How could Li Yuanxing answer the question?
Cui Junsu continued: "Your Highness, to be more straightforward, many people in the world understand this truth. But people die for money, and birds die for food. Even though they know it is a trap, there are still many people who jump in willingly. So, this
The move is a conspiracy, not a conspiracy, and the forces above the court will never unite."
"Then, what should we do here?" Niu Jinda asked immediately.
"Under His Highness's theory of sheep cannibalism, this trick is just a trick. You have four translators, and let three of them be in charge of agriculture, industry, and port. Leave one to continue to translate!" Cui Junsu gave a trick.
Niu Jinda nodded vigorously: "Choose the most loyal one, Guan Hong Kong will have the most peace of mind!"
When Li Yuanxing heard this, he shook his head in disappointment.
Cui Junsu and Changsun Wuji laughed loudly at the same time. Changsun Wuji said: "Your Highness, you should send some capable advisers to various fiefdoms. General Niu is brave and loyal, but he can't manage government affairs!"
"It's better to simply tell Lao Niu!" Niu Jinda asked.
"Let the most loyal one still be the translator, and the other three will be entrusted with important tasks!" Changsun Wuji said to Niu Jinda with a smile.
Li Yuanxing sighed in his heart. When it comes to playing tricks and playing politics, who dares to say that the people of the Tang Dynasty are weak. Even if the most loyal people are not promoted, such a clever trick, even if it is used in the modern officialdom of later generations, how many people can do it?
You can figure it out.
So clever!
But Niu Jinda didn't understand it at all. He couldn't figure out why?
Everyone's eyes were focused on Li Yuanxing's face. Li Yuanxing picked up the tea cup and took a sip and said: "Let the loyal ones become more loyal, and let the unfaithful ones fear. Let those who are ready to be loyal peek at an opportunity to be loyal."
.The most important thing is that these four people will fight among themselves, but no one will miss your mission!"
Niu Jinda was even more confused.
This time, Changsun Wuji secretly praised that King Qin was smarter than he imagined.
At least that sentence, making the loyal even more loyal, they didn't think of.
After Li Yuanxing reminded him, Changsun Wuji said: "The most loyal person has not been promoted. Instead, he only works as a translator. Then he may become your spokesperson, Lao Niu, so he has no power in his hands, but he has power behind his back. This
It is hidden power, which is also the reason why the other three people are afraid. You must know that these three people have a job, and they are afraid of being kicked out, and the one without a job will keep an eye on the three of them, just like, everyone
Just like if your military exploits are divided among a few people, there will definitely be internal discord!"
After explaining this, Niu Jinda was naturally able to understand.
"Besides, let's make the loyal ones more loyal, because the most loyal one did not get the job, so he will be despised and squeezed out by the other three in a short period of time. What Lao Niu gave him was hidden power, and it will take a certain amount of time to reflect it.
, his state of mind will go through several changes during this process, until he truly feels that he has achieved the greatest benefit, and he will be more loyal."
While listening to Changsun Wuji's words, Cui Junsu kept paying attention to Li Yuanxing's eyes.
In fact, Cui Junsu saw it clearly.
Li Yuanxing's thoughts were not what Changsun Wuji said.
But at this time, there is no need to ask anymore. King Qin Li Yuanxing will not talk any more.
After careful analysis, there may be another reason.
That is, when three people are squeezing each other, the most loyal one will get closer to Niu Jinda in order to protect himself.
Cui Junsu thought that he was right.
Niu Jinda has gone out, and he already knows the solution to the things here.
Li Yuanxing's reaction just now was not because of whether Changsun Wuji's guess was correct or not.
But Li Yuanxing was thinking about whether this was true loyalty or betrayal.
Loyalty, loyalty to the Tang Dynasty is nothing. These people will never be truly loyal to the Tang Dynasty. What they are loyal to is only the small interests in front of them.
Having seen through this, Li Yuanxing dared to say that there would be more tricks to use.
Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, military suppression, and the temptation of wealth. Li Yuanxing and the dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty believed that under these five attacks, annexing such a barbaric land was not a problem at all.
Li Yuanxing walked to the deck to blow the wind, and Cui Junsu, Changsun Wuji, Wei Ting, and Ma Zhou all followed him.
"Is there something on your mind, Your Highness?" Wei Ting asked.
Li Yuanxing smiled calmly: "It should be that you have something to ask me, not that I have something to worry about."
"We have something to ask, but His Highness also has something on his mind!" Wei Ting repeated.
"I'm wondering if these people are loyal to the Tang Dynasty, or loyal to their interests. Are they betraying their own country or nation, or their beliefs. From a certain perspective, it should be like this. Our country
Tang is an invader, and we want to not only occupy his land, but also annex his population."
While Li Yuanxing was talking, the four extremely intelligent people did not answer.
King Qin Li Yuanxing spoke so directly that they had no way to answer the question, and they did not know from what angle to answer it.
Li Yuanxing continued: "To put it another way, think about Zhao Tuo's battle with Lingnan during the Qin Dynasty. He was also an invader. But hundreds of years later, Zhao Tuo brought advanced technology and the culture of the Central Plains to the barbarians.
Being educated, does this count as progress? Does this count as helping the barbarians?"
After Li Yuanxing finished speaking these two extreme and completely opposite arguments, the four men with superb knowledge and wisdom all fell silent.
No need to answer.
There is no need to answer. This is Li Yuanxing asking himself, and letting himself ask himself.
What is this all about? Is it an invasion, or is it civilizing the barbarians?
Not to mention these four people, even in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, this topic could be discussed for a year, and after a year of discussion, there would still be no result.
"Your Highness, please tell me. As I understand your Highness, after these two extreme theories, Your Highness must have a third high theory, and it is a high theory that ordinary people can't think of. His Highness's high theory is enough to lead the Tang Dynasty.
I would like to ask Your Highness to make it clear in the direction of the direction!" Wei Ting stood behind Li Yuanxing and saluted.
What a flattering shot, Li Yuanxing couldn't laugh or cry.
"Your Highness, please tell me!" The other three people also asked.
Li Yuanxing smiled and shook his head: "The third type is not a theory, it is just an attitude. I only represent my own personal theory." After Li Yuanxing said this, he took a deep breath:
"Actually, it's very simple. I'm just occupying territory for the Tang Dynasty and robbing the population. Let future generations comment on whether it's just or not!" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
