Chapter 1794: Loyalty and righteousness bully the world
Tao Yuanming said sternly: "Because the emperor's skills of our ancestors cannot be understood by those with extremely high understanding. Since our ancestors, our Tao family has been fighting each other, brothers and sisters. It is hard to look back on the past. Until now, the family fortune has fallen into decline, and only the ancestral skills have been passed down."
After years of hard study in poverty, I finally gained enlightenment on the book "Emperor's Art". Only then did I understand the general trend of the world in the past hundred years, and also knew how to assist those in charge!"
Huan Xuan looked at Bian Fanzhi: "Jingzu, how did you find out that Mr. Tao has this talent? No one in the world knows Mr. Tao's talents, but no one knows about his military and political skills."
Bian Fanzhi smiled slightly: "Lingbao, have you forgotten that our ancestor, Bian Gong, was a close friend of Tao Jingzhou? At that time, Tao Gong and our ancestors knew each other very well, so if you practice the Tao family's imperial skills, you can rule the country and bring peace to the world.
Our Bian family is well aware of the matter, but later on Tao Jingzhou's descendants continued to fight among themselves. I am afraid that no one has learned this imperial art, because as long as you understand the imperial art, you should first know that the family and everything will be prosperous. This principle is important for governing the country.
Running a household is the same."
"Yuanming was poor when he was young, but after studying hard for many years, he became famous for his literary talent. Since I was responsible for selecting talents for the Lord, I naturally wanted to visit Jingzhou's famous people. After several visits, I found out that Yuanming was a great talent.
You don’t have to be that kind of bookworm to recommend me to my lord."
Huan Xuan's eyes flashed coldly: "As for this Jingzhou, before our Huan family came, Tao Jingzhou had been in business for many years. Since you are willing to help me, sir, what do you want in return?"
Tao Yuanming said without thinking: "Jingzhou!"
Huan Xuan's expression changed and he was filled with anger: "Tao Yuanming, you are too presumptuous! Jingzhou is given to you, so where should I go?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "When the time comes, my lord will naturally own the world, and all nine states will be yours. Why don't you give me Tao a mere Jingzhou?"
Huan Xuan was stunned for a moment, then turned angry and smiled: "So that's it. If you can really make me the master of the world, this condition is not impossible to consider, but do you really have this ability?"
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "If I didn't have this self-confidence, I wouldn't have chosen to assist Duke Huan. As I just said to Duke Huan, your situation is not as optimistic as you imagined. You are surrounded by dangers, and you are frightened at every step."
Huan Xuan shook his head: "Although Yang Qi doesn't want to deal with me, Yin Zhongkan is still neutral. After all, I have been friends with me for many years, and we still have some feelings for each other. Moreover, they know very well that this Jingzhou is my territory.
Only through cooperation can we have a future."
Tao Yuanming smiled and said: "Even Sima Yao, a useless emperor who has been in power for decades, is not willing to be a puppet forever. He knows that he wants to find Liu Yu to fight back against the high-ranking family. Yin Zhongkan is just conceited and has learned a lot. When he came out, he wanted to become a vassal."
How can someone with great ambition really be obedient? The last time he used Wei Yongzhi, he just wanted to contact Xi Hui as a foreign aid. Now he has brought Yang Qi, who has always been at odds with Duke Huan, to Yongzhou to replace Xi Hui. At the same time,
He is secretly wooing Duke Huan and your subordinates, like He Danzhi, the Prime Minister of Jiangxia, and Lu Zongzhi, the Grand Administrator of Nanyang, who have already been in contact with him."
Huan Xuan's mouth suddenly opened wide, and he shook his head in disbelief: "Impossible, He Danzhi, Lu Zongzhi is a person who has great kindness to me, how can he betray me?"
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "In these troubled times, how can there be any loyalty or betrayal? Lu Zong was originally a hero in Guanzhong. He only entered the Jin Dynasty after Feishui was captured. Although Duke Huan ransomed him and gave him an official position, he might not be
It can really make people work desperately. As for He Danzhi, his grandfather He Chong had the favor of promoting Duke Huan's late father. It seems that he should be a family friend, but now Duke Huan owns Jingzhou, but he only
Can he be mentally balanced when he can be the Prime Minister of Jiangxia? The one who works hard to recruit people for Yin Zhongkan is Wei Yongzhi, who is known as a man of both civil and military skills in the Beifu Army. This man was able to persuade Xi Hui to serve Liu Yu last time, and this time he won over
He and Lu, what’s so strange about them?!”
Huan Xuan gritted his teeth: "Jingzu, is the news accurate?"
Bian Fanzhi nodded: "If I hadn't verified it, I wouldn't have brought Mr. Tao to see the Lord. Indeed, when I first heard it, I couldn't believe it, but the result made me have to believe it."
Huan Xuan said bitterly: "These two are eating the inside out, I will definitely kill them, come..."
Tao Yuanming interrupted Huan Xuan: "Huan Gong, if you are going to attack these two people now, you will definitely regret it in the future!"
Huan Xuan was surprised and said: "They have all betrayed me, why don't we deal with it? If others follow my example, how will Jingzhou be governed in the future and how will the world conquer it?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Because Yin Zhongkan is now the official governor of Jingzhou and represents the imperial court. He Danzhi and Lu Zongzhi are different from your old Huan clan. Unlike Huangfu Fu and Wu Fuzhi, they have not been trained by you.
They have been loyal servants of my late father for generations, so it is their duty to be loyal to the imperial court. If Duke Huan attacks them now just because they are more willing to obey the imperial court, it will only discourage loyal and righteous people from coming to invest, because even if you actually
Owning Jingzhou, but still not being the official governor of Yin Zhongkan, this would be equivalent to tearing off the skin of the separatist regime of Jingxiang and completely becoming independent."
Huan Xuan curled his lips: "Everyone knows things, so there is no need for this layer of skin."
Tao Qian shook his head: "Back then, everyone knew that Cao Cao was a traitor to the Han Dynasty. He used the emperor to control the princes, but he didn't usurp the throne, he just wanted to keep this skin. Why? Isn't it just because of the reincarnation of heaven and the retribution? I don't like it.
Although the strength is enough to usurp the throne, but not enough to suppress the noble families in the world, today one can usurp the Han Dynasty and establish oneself, and tomorrow others can usurp the Wei Dynasty and establish oneself. Later, the Sima family really followed suit. Loyalty, although it sounds pedantic and ridiculous
, but it represents a basic rule of the world. If you abide by it, others will be forced to abide by it."
Huan Xuan said thoughtfully: "This is indeed the truth, but according to what you said, my Huan family can only guard Jingzhou forever and be a Jingzhou farewell in name only?"
Tao Qian smiled slightly: "Of course not. As long as Duke Huan makes contributions to the country, he can justifiably lead his troops to the capital, change from being the governor of Jingzhou to sitting in the imperial court, and do what Cao Cao did in the past by coercing the emperor and ordering the princes. As long as he is not so impatient, he can slowly
During the period when the emperor was in power, he flattened the Jiangzuo family and distributed the Huan clan's sons and nephews to control the Wu region. That would mean that I own the world. If I advance, I can be called the emperor by Zen, and if I retreat, I can actually own the world. It is no better than now to become a public enemy of the world like Tianshi Dao.
