Xiang Ying's voice was of course very low, so low that only Liang Kun and Hyotaro beside him could hear it, these two were lords who had no respect for Jae Chun, so they smiled slightly and made a grimace and said nothing.

But how could all this escape Xiao Letian's eyes, he glared at Xiang Ying fiercely, the meaning was very clear, although I didn't understand what you said, but play less tricks, it's endless?

Xiao Lotian turned his head to look at Zaichun, thought about his childish remarks just now, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Xiao Letian's mood at the moment is very complicated, in fact, according to Zaichun's identity, he should be glad that this emperor is so naïve, because it is more convenient to toss the Manchu Qing after being naïve.

But Zaichun is his disciple after all, and the master and apprentice already have a subtle emotion that is close to that of father and son, Xiao Lotian knows very well that Jaechun is actually using him to fill the father's love that has been missing since childhood.

There is no family affection in the imperial family, and the relationship between the emperor and his children is more of a monarch and a minister than a father and son, father and daughter. In fact, it's pitiful to think about it, ordinary family fathers will hold their children to play together, will take their children to go shopping together, and will teach their children to read and write.

These are all means of establishing family affection, human beings are born with emotion, otherwise what is the difference with animals?

But the emperor and his children do not have such an opportunity for emotional exchange, although Emperor Xianfeng was very excited when Zaichun was born, it was only the excitement of the emperor, Xianfeng has more national affairs to deal with, and there are more women in the harem to be lucky.

For Jae Chun, it is already very good to see each other in three days, and Jae Chun, who is raised in the deep palace, spends much more time seeing his wet nurse and eunuch palace maid than spending time with his parents.

In addition, Emperor Xianfeng died early, and he was only six years old when Jaechun ascended the throne, just a little child, so you can imagine how much Jaechun lacks fatherly love.

Psychology in the nineteenth century was not developed, in Xiao Letian's previous life, many psychologists have studied the psychological problems of children from single-parent families, the situation is not optimistic, from a psychological point of view, a person's lack of father's love and mother's love are easy to cause deviations in his psychological growth.

It may be that Zaichun is impatient, frivolous, tyrannical, and lustful because of the root of his psychological problems.

Xiao Lotian thought about it, looked at his pocket watch again, and knew that there was still a period of time before dinner at this moment, he hesitated and still felt that there was some truth that should be explained to Zaichun.

These words may have hindered the cause of overthrowing the Manchus, but these truths were still helpful to Jaechun's growth.

After all, Xiao Letian's ultimate ideal for the Manchu Qing is to get the abdication edict from Zai Chun's hands, and then let Zai Chun integrate into the Hidden Dragon Plan and live a peaceful emperor.

What Xiao Letian wants is the abdication of the Qing Dynasty, but not the cold corpse of Zaichun and the massacre of millions of people.

"Jae-chun! everything I said below, you must keep it firmly in my heart for me, this truth will follow you for the rest of your life, and what I tell you is the truth between countries......

"There are only eternal interests, and no eternal enemies and friends!"

Xiao Letian said categorically, "This sentence is very straightforward, everyone understands the truth in this, but it is not easy to really understand it, just like the words you just said......"

"What do you mean that you don't need to deduce a war with Britain? Do you think that all the courtesies that Britain treats you will represent the friendship between the two countries for eternity? Don't be stupid, private friendship is just a fart in the face of national interests!"

"Okay, let me make it clear to you, what exactly is the competition between human beings? In fact, it is the competition for resources, and resources represent the right to survive!"

"Food, clothing, shelter and transportation are met by material things, not coins printed with straw fibers, or even hard currency like gold and silver!"

"Don't tell me that gold and silver can buy everything you want, if you want to buy these, at least you have to make sure you have these resources......"

"Think about it! If you join a country where the land and mountains are made of gold, silver, diamonds, and jewelry, do you think this country is rich?"

Jae-chun nodded confusedly, "Of course, of course I'm very rich......"

"No! If you want me to say, this country is very poor!" Xiao Lotian said sharply, "Gold and silver are the earth, do you think that can still grow crops? Can there still be cotton? Can you still herd sheep and cattle?"

"People must solve the problem of food, clothing, shelter and transportation in life, whether gold and silver can be eaten or clothed, whether it can solve the problem of food and clothing or cold?

"Isn't it logical that such a country has only money and no resources, then other countries with resources will jam his neck and exchange a small amount of rice and wheat for his mountains of gold and diamonds?"

"So let's go back to our current world, let's face real life, let's make a hypothetical......"

"If we take all the resources produced by the earth under our feet every year into a single value, if the average is 100, then the rest is a matter of the distribution of this resource......

"We put grain, steel, non-ferrous metals, rubber, coal mines, timber, oil, ...... All kinds of renewable and non-renewable resources are counted together, and if you get a value of 100......"

"Among them, the British ate 30 together, while the rest of Europe ate 30 together, we ate 20 in the Qing Dynasty, and the rest of the weak countries ate 20 ...... This is just an example, I'll give you an analogy!"

"Once this distribution ratio is determined, you can talk about peace as long as the balance is not broken...... But once we break this distribution Chinese and we go from eating 20 to 30 all of a sudden, and we eat 10 more then somebody eats 10 ...... less."

"This is the core of the contradiction between countries, that is, the struggle for the right to allocate resources......"

Looking at Zai Chun's tightly knit brows, as if he understood, and as if he didn't understand, Xiao Letian sighed slightly and asked, "Do you have any questions?"

"Master, I don't think your example has much to do with the problem of our friendship with Britain? Just because we eat 10 more doesn't necessarily mean that Britain will eat 10 less? Doesn't it mean that the rest of Europe and the rest of the world eat a little less?"

"As long as the British can maintain the amount of resources they control, why should they conflict with us?"

With a snap, Xiao Lotian snapped his fingers, "Okay, good question, now I'll explain it to you...... Actually, it's very, very simple!"
