Chapter 762 The benevolent king in troubled times will eventually be rewarded
Fu Jian said in a deep voice: "Liu Yu, if you knew that I didn't want to give you the jade seal, why didn't you kill me? I, Fu Jian, am the sworn enemy of you Jin people. If you have such an opportunity to take my life, you will surely be remembered in history.
, since you can’t get the jade seal, it would be better if I were you and left a heroic name in the annals of history. So I don’t understand why you don’t take action.”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Then King Futian, can you tell me why you refuse to hand over this jade seal?"
Fu Jian laughed: "Liu Yu, do you know the responsibilities of a king? As a king, he holds the power of the world, and he is also responsible for the life and death of all the people in the world. This jade seal symbolizes the power of the king. People in the north, regardless of Han or Hu, believe that
This jade seal is the jade seal that has been handed down since the victory over Qin, and the one who gets it will be the emperor. If this jade seal falls into the hands of others, the peaceful environment that has lasted for more than ten years in the north will be broken again, and then all the heroes will rise up.
If attacks continue, only the people will suffer. I, Fu Jian, am not even afraid of losing my own life, I just don’t want ambitious people to get this jade seal and command the world!"
Liu Yu nodded: "Fu Jian, to be honest, before the Battle of Feishui, I hated you to the core, because in my eyes, you did not hesitate to start a war for your own ambitions and achievements, and wanted to dominate the world, and then
Just like those barbarian kings, they only care about their own enjoyment and enslave and abuse the people of the world, especially us Han people. I have seen too many people who fled south due to war, which further deepened this impression."
Fu Jian sighed: "I'm afraid you, Liu Yu, have misunderstood me. I want to unify the world, not for my own imperial ambitions, but because I want to unify the world so that the people will no longer suffer from wars. We Di
The reason why people founded the country and named it Qin was to imagine that the King of Qin would conquer the six kingdoms and bring peace to the world, ending nearly three hundred years of chaos. Whether they are Han people or Hu people, they are all my subjects. I, Fu Jian,
After running the country for more than ten years, I dare not say anything else, but I can pat my chest and touch my conscience and say that I am worthy of the people of the world!"
Liu Yu sneered and said: "The Qin Dynasty was able to conquer the world back then because it had absolute strength, and the Qin Dynasty itself was one of the princes canonized by the Emperor of Zhou. They also belonged to China, so they were naturally qualified to conquer the world and establish a new dynasty.
But you, the Qin State, are just foreign barbarians. Back then, the Jin State was kind to you and moved you to live in the Central Plains. When the country was in crisis, you did not want to serve the country, but you took the opportunity to stand on your own in troubled times. Do you have the nerve to say that it was for the sake of the people of the world?
"
Fu Jian shook his head, with a determined look on his face: "Liu Yu, I'm afraid you may have misunderstood us. Back then, the Jin Kingdom had an internal war, and state and county institutions at all levels had long since disappeared. Didn't the feudal officials of the Jin Kingdom want to survive in troubled times?
To give us a way to survive, they conscripted soldiers and food from our tribe, and even made our entire family slaves. In this way, we had no choice but to leave our hometown and wander around, just to survive. Later, the Jin Kingdom was conquered by the Xiongnu in the north.
Liu Yuan was destroyed, and the two Jin emperors were killed by Hu emperors one after another, but your Eastern Jin Dynasty fled to the south of the Yangtze River and had no time to take care of itself. What else can we do except stand on our own feet? Liu Yu, if one day, your Jin Dynasty suddenly
If you disappear, how should you handle yourself?"
Liu Yu sighed: "Those are all in the past. It's a bit too much to say that you are disloyal. So far, you have only been called the king but not the emperor. You still have the last bit of loyalty to the Jin Dynasty. With the Huns, Han and Zhao,
Compared with the tiger and wolf countries like Diren, Jie, and Zhao, your Qin State is quite lenient to its people. Along the way, I saw many people, mostly Han Chinese. Even if they left their homes and brought their families with them, they still wanted to come to you.
, it seems that you, Fu Jian, are usually okay with them, but in our Jin Dynasty, the people everywhere may not be like this."
A trace of pride flashed across Fu Jian's face: "This is called adversity, and you will be kind to all the people in the world, and you will naturally be rewarded at this time. It's a pity..." At this point, his eyes flashed
After a trace of hatred, "It's a pity that some people are not human at all, such as Murong Chui and Yao Chang. In order to restore their country and stand on their own feet, they deceived me and plunged the people of the world into misery.
If there is a spirit from heaven, it should strike down these two traitors with lightning and eliminate harm for the people of the world!"
When Fu Jian thought of this, the anger in his heart could not be contained, his face turned red, and his nostrils were breathing fire.
Liu Yu smiled calmly: "King Fu Tian, don't get excited. It's not good for your health to be angry. Now that the matter has come to this, it's useless even if you try to curse them. The reason why I changed my view of you is because of the public's support for you.
It's one thing, but it's another thing that makes me believe you are a wise king."
Fu Jian's heart moved and he looked at Liu Yu: "What's the matter?"
Liu Yu solemnly said: "Since Murong Hong and Yao Chang started their rebellion, the Central Plains and Guanzhong have been raging with war. People either gathered in crowds to protect themselves, or fled to core cities such as Luoyang and Chang'an. This time Murong Lan and I were able to sneak in."
, just following the refugees who fled from Luoyang to Chang'an. Chang'an City suddenly had hundreds of thousands, or even millions of mouths, and the food reserves that were not abundant in the first place suddenly became very tight. Generally, there were only a few
A rational lord, faced with such a situation, would definitely reject the influx of refugees from all over the country in order to ensure the food and grass for his army. But you, Fu Jian, accepted these refugees and even set up Chang'an in order to obtain food for these refugees.
In the danger of a direct attack from Murong Xianbei, he took the initiative to lead troops to the Guanzhong Granary in the Sanyuan area to fight against Yao Chang to protect this year's autumn grain. This alone can be regarded as a king who cares about the people.
, Fu Jian, on behalf of all the people, I would like to say thank you."
Fu Jian's eyes were sparkling with tears, and his voice was trembling with excitement: "You, do you really think of me like this?"
Liu Yu nodded: "I followed the refugees all the way here, and stayed in Chang'an City for nearly a month. What I saw and heard, both the people and the soldiers praised you. I don't think this can be bought.
The hearts of the people are indeed towards you. Although the Qiang and Xianbei people are in rebellion because of the instigation of careerists, other people, especially the Han people, are supporting you at this time. Fu Jian, I think about your kindness to the people when you have governed the country for decades.
, now it finally has benefits.”
Fu Jian sighed and said: "You Han people are a country of etiquette after all. Even ordinary people know how to repay kindness. Compared with those Xianbei and Qiang people who repay kindness with hatred, it is really a world of difference."
