It is said that Jia Cong got out of the dart game and went straight to King Ning's mansion. The sixth prince invited him in and asked with a smile: "When did you return to Beijing?" ”

Jia Cong said: "I've been back for a while, and I saw that Beijing was too chaotic, and I didn't dare to run around, so I didn't even go back to our house." Lord, I want to meet King Xian. ”

The sixth prince glanced at him a few times and asked, "What are you doing with him?" ”

Jia Cong said: "Persuade him to join the gang for you." ”

The sixth prince smiled and shook his head: "He won't join the gang." ”

Jia Cong said: "Not necessarily. I don't know if I can say anything. ”

The sixth prince glanced at him and said, "Do you think you are Su Qin or Zhang Yi?" ”

Jia Cong said slowly: "I think I am Jia Cong." Those two dead people, what do you think about them? Am I not as good as the two of them? The past, the number of romantic figures, but also look at the present. ”

When the sixth prince heard this, he clapped his hands: "What a spirit!" So he really ordered someone to take him to see Situ Pan.

Jia Cong followed the people around his palace for a long time, thinking that Situ Pan was probably locked up in some cellar or something; He never thought that it was just an ordinary room, and there was an old woman serving him in the house. It's just that the house is in a small courtyard, and in addition to Situ Pan, there happen to be many soldiers living in the courtyard. No wonder Qin Sangu said that there was no way to save him, such a strong attack would kill Situ Pan directly, and he really couldn't think of a way. Jia Cong couldn't help but laugh, it seemed that the sixth prince was quite wary of Situ Pan's private soldiers.

Situ Pan was quite safe, and he was still sitting in front of the desk and writing poems. Seeing Jia Cong coming in, he smiled and said, "Come and see how my poem is?" ”

Jia Cong shrugged his shoulders and said, "But isn't it asking Yu Blind?" Although I can recite a few broken poems, I can never tell the difference. Nai Ji simply sat down and said, "Brother Feng forced me to think of getting you out, but I said I couldn't think of it, so the third aunt and sister squeezed me with words, and I couldn't agree to it." ”

Situ Pan chuckled and said, "How are you going to get me out?" Get soldiers and horses to attack, or persuade the sixth child to let me go? ”

Jia Cong said: "No, I'm going to persuade you to get it from the six princes." ”

Situ Pan raised his eyes and stared at him.

Jia Cong coughed and sat for a while, pretending to drink tea, and Situ Pan also straightened his back and prepared to listen to his nonsense. Who knew that Jia Cong suddenly looked like a thief, bent down and stretched out his head to snicker at him: "Brother Xianwang, do you know our Mr. Xiao Gong?" ”

Situ Pan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said, "Mr. Xiao Gong?" ”

Jia Cong nodded vigorously: "When we chatted back, I said that Brother Xianwang is very cute; He immediately said with a little annoyance, where is King Xian cute? It was funny, so I remember. ”

Situ Pan seemed to remember something, and said with a smile: "I don't know it, I've only seen it once, it's quite interesting." ”

Jia Cong's eyes widened: "I think you played him a trick?" ”

Situ Pan thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Sort of." ”

"Haha!" Jia Cong high-fived, "I guess so!" What the hell is Mr. Gong, you can trick him! ”

Situ Pan laughed: "Is this a compliment to me?" ”

"That's a compliment!" Jia Cong held out a thumbs up. He also said, "Although I have only met once, according to Brother Xianwang, our Mr. Gong can be regarded as a talent?" Do you have a vision? ”

Situ Pan said: "Yes, there is." ”

Jia Cong said: "I think too." Therefore, I have always believed Mr. Gong's words. He sat upright and looked at Situ Pan and said, "He told me more than once that King Xian wants to be the emperor." I believed. ”

Situ Pan's face changed color in vain.

Jia Cong stared at Situ Pan and asked, "I want to ask Brother Xianwang a word, do you want to be the emperor?" If you think, I have a set of words; No, there's another set of words. Because both sets of words are too long, it takes a lot of effort to say them, and I'm lazy, so I just want to say one thing. After saying that, he withdrew his eyes and poured his own tea.

So he changed Situ Pan and stared at him for a long time, until Jia Cong was bored and hesitated to read the book, and finally heard him say, "Yes." ”

Jia Cong pouted and said, "Do you need to think about it for so long?" Then he said to him seriously, "Since I want to, I am thinking, Brother Xianwang does not agree with King Ning and others to divide the seal, probably has his own set of methods, and he wants not to be infamous in the history books and win the country, right?" ”

Situ Pan said calmly: "Yes." ”

Jia Cong said: "Big fallacy. If you agree to divide the seal, you will not be infamy; Regardless of the seal, you have memorized this infamy, and you can carry it through the ages. ”

Situ Pan tilted his head and did not speak.

"There are many people in the world, and there are many people, and the mouths of literati are especially mixed. There are few people who are famous, there are many people who are not famous, and people who are partial to the literati want to be famous. It is very easy to belittle and scold people who have the ability, such as the Qin Emperor, the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, and the Song Ancestors. If Brother Xianwang can become a generation of Ming Jun in the future, the people who want to become famous by scolding you and belittling you in later generations will inevitably stretch like a surging river. There are seven sons today! Although one is missing, the other six are all more justified than you, and it is impossible for you to get rid of them without infamy. Therefore, although you are the younger brother of the same mother, although you have been helping the king, from the succession to the throne, you are no different from the other six kings. There are two ways to succeed to the throne with a side branch and not to recite the name. One is that the Son of Heaven has no heirs. This heirless means that they were not born or raised to half an adult, such as Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Zhezong of the Song Dynasty. Those who are killed after raising them do not count, and the princes who are killed will be counted on the head of the successor. It doesn't matter if you did it or not, you did it anyway. With that, he drank a cup of tea.

Situ Pan was silent for a moment and said, "I know that you have insight into people's hearts, and this is reasonable. Second? ”

Jia Cong said: "The second is to be like Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty. First dismantle the world - although the person who demolished the Han Dynasty was Wang Mang not Liu Xiu, and it was demolished horizontally and vertically - since it was demolished, the original set of royal inheritance was gone! The rest of whomever surnamed Liu can reassemble this country. Whoever has the ability to put the chair together is his. Situ Pan sighed lightly, Jia Cong looked at him and grinned, his fat face smiled like a big meat bun, "I think that Brother Xianwang is more capable than all the princes and princes next to him." ”

Situ Pan's eyes were a little loose.

Jia Cong continued: "Besides, even if Brother Xianwang can go out this time, it is impossible to stop the separation. Partitioning is now the trend of the times. ”

Situ Pan frowned and said: "My dynasty has always been stable and stable, where can it become a general trend." ”

Jia Cong said: "The so-called general trend is the situation that most forces want. That is, the majority will try to do something to make that situation happen. The current situation is almost unprecedented, so there is no history to learn from. In history, the turmoil at the end of the dynasty was mostly due to the mediocrity of the kings of the imperial court, which caused the people to live in poverty. At that time, the people were powerful. Not long ago, I was still clear and clear. Therefore, the common people are safe and scattered, and they are powerless to become powerful. And because the first emperor held the military power all the year round, he refused to give half of it to Jinshang; After his death, he immediately fell into the hands of thieves, and he had no time to hold the military power; As a result, the world's soldiers and horses have no owner for a while. At present, those who can become a general trend are local leaders and generals. I have always believed that human nature is inherently selfish, and it must be controlled by various rules such as laws in order to suppress selfishness. Naturally, there are many selfless people; It's just that there are many, much, many more selfish people. He sighed, "The seemingly kings who demolished the world are really the first emperors." The Son of Heaven should rule the world. And the first emperor reigned as the emperor for more than ten years and did not release the power of military administration, so that the Son of Heaven was in name only. You know, it's a very pleasant thing to cross the line. Jia Cong squeezed his eyes.

Situ Pan asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Jia Cong said: "It's just that it's very pleasant to do something that the rules don't allow you to do." For example, a child peeks at the spring palace picture while Mr. is napping in the school. ”

Situ Pan laughed dumbly.

"The old ministers of the first emperor, especially those who hold military power and one party's power, can step on the emperor's face and give the emperor a head to eat! No one can punish them yet! This is not a 'peeping' look at the Spring Palace map, it's just a blatant look! How many people can resist that happy and comfortable temptation? There are those who enrich their own pockets, those who are corrupt and pervert the law, and those who bully the monarch. It's just that most of them have forgotten that there is another word called settling accounts after autumn! Until the death of the first emperor, their backstage collapsed. At that moment, their hearts must have collapsed, and they didn't know what would happen next. Is it possible to allow their past mistakes today? If not, will they lose their official position or will they be beheaded? Therefore, for a while after the first emperor left, this group of old ministers who held military power and power were all panicked and didn't know what to do. At this moment, the kings opened the door to a new world for them. Jia Cong smiled and stretched out his arm to draw a circle, "Divide the world, and the past is not investigated!" ”

Situ Pan was suddenly moved! Stared at Jia Cong without blinking.

"Because of the common interests, the princes will soon be able to reach an alliance with the lords and generals when they arrive in the fiefdom. In addition to not investigating the past, after the kings were divided, the taxes from various places did not need to enter the capital, and the money originally given to the saints went to the kings and the lords and generals, which was beneficial to them. Even if the capable people of the Situ clan have destroyed all the kings in the coming day, there is a saying that the law does not blame the people, and those adults are much safer than the princes. If you were them, would you be loyal to the sin of not knowing if you could be pardoned by the Son of Heaven, or would you rely on the prince to clear your name in one fell swoop? ”

Situ Pan was silent.

After a pause, Jia Cong continued: "History books always say 'people's hearts are back'. In fact, people's hearts are back all the time, and they only look at the "back" or "back" in the "back" that works. He deliberately slowed down his tone and said slowly, "At the moment, if you count the hearts of the people in the whole world, it will naturally be more 'towards' and unsealed than 'back'." Much, much, much. These 'directions' are not the top thing. A few of them are powerless scholars, who can write nothing but a few scolding poems, and few of them can understand those scolding poems; Most of them are a group of ordinary people who have not been cornered at all, and they will not do anything except scold their mothers in the fields and teahouses and restaurants. Most of them will not take the initiative to risk being killed, do something for Jinshang or the prince. Even if someone does it occasionally, it's only occasionally. The kings will be fine if they kill these 'occasionally'. Is it useful to write poetry and curse? And those 'backs' are different. 'Back' is what I just said about the person in power below. Although their number of heads is small, they are the 'human hearts' that work at the moment. Therefore, the hearts of the people at present are 'towards' and 'back' to be unsealed. Brother Xianwang, if you want to block it with your own strength, you can't stop it. ”

Jia Cong stopped and waited for Situ Pan to meditate for a long time, and said: "Although at this moment, all the kings and the old ministers of the first emperor will work together to dismantle the country into pieces for self-preservation; When they are actually broken down, they will have trouble inside. The old ministers are used to acting recklessly all year round, and people even step on the emperor, what is the prince? And all the princes, which one doesn't want to be the emperor? Although they are cooperating with each other now, once they are kings, they can immediately do it. Again, the so-called habit becomes nature. The old ministers are used to filling their own pockets, so they will naturally continue to fill their private pockets. But the princes came from Beijing one by one. What should I do if I don't have enough money? Naturally, it is scraping the ground and squeezing the common people. Brother Xianwang, at that time, the hearts of those ordinary people who are moving towards 'no separation' will be useful. Those six princes are very kind to you, and they have left the capital to you. You are closer to orthodoxy and more righteous in the eyes of the world than the kings. ”

Situ Pan's eyebrows moved again.

Jia Cong smiled slightly: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Dividing the seal can give you a chance: whoever has luck will win the world, or whoever has the ability will win the world. Brother Xianwang, you are not the one who has luck. There is luck in today, and there is only one person in today. You are exactly the same as the other princes, no different. You don't have any luck. He paused, "But you have the ability." With that, Jia Cong stood up and bowed to Situ Pan, and withdrew without waiting for him to speak.

Walking out of the courtyard gate, Jia Cong looked back at his son for a while, and asked the person who led him, "What about your prince?" ”

The man said, "The last general does not know." The prince only said that Mr. and King Yan had finished speaking, and then led Mr. back to the outer study. ”

Jia Cong let out an "oh" and followed.

Then I went around for a long time and went to the outer study, and the sixth prince was really sitting inside. Jia Cong complained: "Lord Wang, I'm not stupid. ”

The sixth prince looked at him: "How have you ever been stupid?" ”

Jia Cong sat down generously and said, "Since you know that I'm not stupid, why do you want people to lead me to walk so many more ways to kill time?" I'm so smart, can't I guess that the prince will personally eavesdrop? Now that the prince has heard it, how do you deal with the last paragraph? ”

The sixth prince stared at him for a long time and asked, "Jia Cong, what do you want?" ”

Jia Cong said: "The prince thinks that my Jia Fatzi's three-inch incorruptible tongue is useful when the world is unified, or when the Spring and Autumn Three Kingdoms are useful?" ”

The sixth prince was stunned for a moment and laughed. After laughing, he personally stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for him, and made another salute: "Ask Mr. for advice." ”

Jia Cong was not polite, and drank all the tea before returning the gift. Nai Dao: "What I said with King Xian is not half a lie, it is all true. But there's a workaround. ”

The sixth prince was busy asking where it was.

"After the separation, the princes are fair. You can provide for the old emperors and ministers, oppress the people, and kill each other, or you can subdue the old emperors and ministers, work hard, and help each other. Jia Cong said, "Now that the Son of Heaven is still there, you are still weak." Even if he is not there in the future, he still has a son, and Yu Wei will not be gone so soon. The princes, including the virtuous king, no one has the ability to dominate the world. Not for at least 10 years, or even 20 years. Whoever is in a hurry to annex each other in these two decades will die first. Qiang Qin is still there, the six countries have not been established, and even the horizontal and inner bars are dead. Lord Wang, it's still the same method that my senior brother Jarvis used back then. Merge. All the time. Exchange time with the combination of verticals, and the longitudinal until the aftermath of the Son of Heaven is exhausted. And the exchange of trade routes to rejuvenate the national strength of various countries, enrich the country and strengthen the army. ”

The sixth prince pondered for a long time when he heard this, and asked, "What about one or two decades later?" ”

Jia Cong shook his head and said: "If the prince thinks about it now in one or twenty years, the world will be either the second prince or the sixth prince." ”

The sixth prince frowned, and the murderous pause: "Why are they theirs?" ”

"For they are wise among the sons of today." Jia Cong said, "The King of Shu is a thousand years old, you have not even stood up in Shu to think about the world, and I think the rest of the princes also have this heart." Then you can't win. I just told King Yan that all the princes have no luck; Those who are lucky can only be justified by the present and their descendants. Don't be in a hurry to worry about other people's territory, your own territory has not yet arrived. Remember, before the remnants of the Son of Heaven are gone, if one country does not exist, then six countries do not exist. If the six kingdoms do not exist, the subjects of the six kingdoms will remain, and the monarch will die. Lord Wang, the scar is not healed yet, so I forgot about the pain? ”

The sixth prince was drenched in cold sweat, and left his seat to salute him again: "Thank you, sir, for your advice." ”

Jia Cong waved his hand and said, "Don't thank me. I just don't like it very much. ”

The sixth prince hurriedly asked, "Why doesn't Mr. like him?" ”

Jia Cong skimmed and said: "Mediocre and incompetent. Who likes to worship a mediocre ruler every day? ”

The sixth prince couldn't help but smile. At one point, he asked, "What do you want to do in the future?" ”

Jia Cong smiled and said, "I'm still young." For the time being, I will return to that small island in Taiwan to study for a few years and accompany my father. Then I want to play in the green forest for a few years and travel the world. Well, as for when to return to the right path, it will be more than ten years later. I also hope that the princes can treat the people well, be virtuous, work hard, and don't kill each other. ”

The sixth prince stood up again: "Xishu is the country of abundance, with beautiful scenery and talents. The gentleman has time to come and visit. ”

Jia Cong said: "I heard that there is a very beautiful place in Xishu called Jiuzhaigou, but the road is rugged, and my current body is probably not enough." In a few years, when I grow up and can climb the mountain, I will have to play, and how about going to the prince's mansion for a light meal? ”

The six princes were overjoyed: "A word is a certainty!" I'm waiting for sir! "Jia Cong, the bear child of the Red Mansion
