The situation in Tanggu made Zhi Yunwu feel more and more depressed. There are some things he can't understand, and there are some things that he understands but finds it difficult to accept.

When he was in Shandong, he has always lived a very scholarly life, and every day was arranged by famous teachers and elders, which made him very eager to break out of the cage and live a free life.

Later, Zhi Yanchong arranged for him to enter the army, and in the army, he got a temporary leisurely - of course, when he thought about it afterwards, he realized that the leisurely at that time was also illusory, and the comfort he got was actually arranged by Lu Yanlun and others. Especially the scolding of his comrade Zhang Duan made him even more embarrassed, and at that moment he suddenly felt that as the son of Zhi Yanchong and the prince of the Han Empire, he should do something in addition to pursuing freedom and happiness.

At that time, Zhi Yunwu was suddenly given the heavy responsibility of supervising the country. He reacted like most young people who are just starting to make a decision, and when he found himself in the opportunity to contribute to the country, he went out of his way to do it. At that moment, Zhi Yunwu was full of hope and vigor, he thought and studied under the guidance of Yang Yingqi and others, and was in charge of some military and political affairs. But slowly, he felt that the work of supervising the country was more boring than joining the army and studying! Because he found that in this position, the greatest knowledge seems to be not the national economy and people's livelihood, but the incomparably complex interpersonal relationships of the emperors and generals!

Zheyan rushed away, Ouyang Shi came, the fourth uncle and the seventh uncle should have been his closest relatives - although there is no blood relationship between them, but how many years of life and death have been together, this emotion should have surpassed most relatives involved by blood. But now Zhe Yunwu feels that this is not the case: the relationship between the fourth uncle and the seventh uncle seems to be more tense than that of the enemy!

Why did Zhi Yanchong transfer Ouyang Shi? Zhi Yunwu vaguely guessed the reason, but he didn't want to think deeply, Yang Yingqi said that thinking clearly would make him progress, but Zhi Yunwu felt that thinking clearly would make him fall!

"Dirty! Filthy! ”

The year he was born, the population of the Han Department was not more than 10,000, from then to now, the entire Han Department is in a positive atmosphere, many bad habits after the corruption of civilization, in the past ten years basically have no chance with the Han Department, the people are diligent and do not care about the gains and losses, the officials are honest and do not feel rare, they are not arrogant when they succeed, they are not discouraged when they fail, they can accommodate the new people with the greatest mind, the tribe is small, the communication is easy, and the people at the bottom of the Ministry and the people in the highest place can also meet day and night. So at that time, although the Han Department had private property, the whole group lived very harmoniously, and during this time, it basically occupied Zhi Yunwu's childhood. At that time, almost everyone in the tribe believed that they could build an ideal kingdom and expand it to the whole world.

However, with the growth of the Han Ministry, the situation slowly changed, and the Han Bu became more complicated and became disappointing to the idealists. It is a necessary compromise in the eyes of the realistic, but it is a depravity in the eyes of the idealist. Zhi Yunwu was even wondering: What is the difference between the current Han court and some enlightened dynasties? At the beginning, the seven chiefs changed hundreds of tribes, and hundreds of tribes changed thousands of returnees. However, when the ranks continued to grow, and after they had more than one million people under their rule, the Han tribe was in turn transformed by this huge crowd - just as the water of a river does not dilute the sea but turns it into the sea.

"Can't we change the world?"

Zhe Yunwu asked Yang Yingqi this question, hoping that he could give him a satisfactory answer, but Yang Yingqi could only tell him very helplessly: "The management of hundreds or thousands of people is different from the management of millions and tens of millions of people. ”

"If we had known this, we shouldn't have developed so fast in the first place! We should develop with hundreds, hundreds. Zhi Yunwu's words were not dared to be said in front of others, because even he felt naïve in this sentence, but he still said it in front of Yang Yingqi.

At that time, Yang Yingqi also replied very seriously, as if he didn't think this question was naïve, but his answer made Zhi Yunwu feel even more helpless: "Impossible." If we don't develop faster, we will be swallowed up by others, and then we will lose our dominance, and we will end up at the mercy of others. Not to mention realizing one's ideals, even saving one's life and dignity is a problem. ”

"But what's the point of being like this now!" Zhi Yunwu said: "Even the highest-level officials have been polluted!" Even...... Or even ourselves! ”

"That can't be helped." Yang Yingqi said at the time: "We have obtained such a large territory and so many people, so we can only slowly advance according to the status quo." If we were to put our ideals on the table, it would only lead to even greater disaster. ”

Zhi Yunwu was dissatisfied with this advancement, but Yang Yingqi, as his teacher, did not have the determination to make people excited, Yang Yingqi always doubted his own ability, he never thought that his ideas could completely help the world solve problems, he even thought: "It is a bit arrogant to say that we can change the world and promote the world." What we can do is try to help people get an environment where they can help themselves and change themselves. ”

But now Zhe Yunwu is even doubting this: are his fathers really working for the well-being of the people? At the beginning, in order to conquer Yunzhong, Zhi Yanchong even wanted to stop the reconstruction of Hebei, although he was later resisted by Yang Yingqi, but Yang Yingqi used to resist Zhe Yanchong was not to rebuild Hebei and attack Yunzhong, but to persuade Zhi Yanchong with interests. After the news of the siege of Kedun City came, people in the know praised Yang Yingqi, not praising him for the people's life, but praising him for being able to dissuade Zhi Yanchong as soon as possible, so that the Han court would not fall into the quagmire of the war of conquering Zonghan and could not take care of Mobei.

"But no one thought that just to make the people of Hebei Road suffer a little less, this reason is enough to stop the war!"

But the elders who are more mature and wiser than him don't think so, and every time Zhi Yunwu asks a similar question, the elders always have a smile on their faces, it is a frustrating smile, this smile seems to say: This child, still young, still naïve to think about things.

So in this case, Zhi Yunwu didn't dare to say it in front of Zhi Yanchong - since he understood the meaning of this smile.

Older people have a lot of worries - some young people can't figure it out. Then these concerns accumulate layer by layer, and finally you will get an answer that is 108,000 miles away from solving the problem. For example, in the matter of Huabiao Altar, Zhe Yunwu couldn't figure it out, why couldn't he simply do it! Chen Xian said that the matter should be postponed; Han Fang said that this matter is not suitable for now; Zhang Hao seconded; Guo Hao seconded; followed by Chen Zhenghui's helpless sigh; Finally, Yang Yingqi's summary: "Then put it aside for now." ”

"I know you're worried about something, but why bother so much on it? Why? Once, he asked Yang Yingqi this.

"There's no way around it." Yang Yingqi said: "Politics is like this, it is established for the purpose of the public, and then a group of selfish people do things under this system, and work with selfish intentions, sometimes it is inevitable to go further and further, but at a certain time it will return, between public and private, it is a kind of balance between tension and relaxation, and we are also in this balance - not that we can manipulate this balance at will." Therefore, in many cases, the superior does not completely act in accordance with the principle of serving the public, because most of those righteous and awe-inspiring truths are just the epidermis, and under the epidermis, there are still very complex human hearts. I once had a dream about the world a thousand years from now. In that world, people already have the power to move mountains and seas, and on the surface they have achieved the so-called people's sovereignty – but in reality it is not like that, and in that world, even in the most developed countries, it is still a small group of people who play with the state apparatus. And the purpose of their playing with the state is not necessarily for the public and the people. Well, of course, the mouth is all shouting for the public and the people. ”

"Uncle Seven, do you mean that this situation will not change in a thousand years?"

"No, it will change, but it will not be this balance that will change, but the form of this balance, simply put, it will become a different form for the powerful to play this game."

Yang Yingqi's gray answer hit Zhi Yunwu, who was full of hope and asked for an answer, and then this consultation ended in a sullen state.

"Your Highness, this is the situation of Huabiao Altar yesterday."

Zhi Yunwu took the paperwork from the hands of the attendants, he had sent two guards a few days ago to count the situation of the victims of the Huabiao Altar, and the two guards were in trouble after receiving the order - they were transferred by Zhi Yan to protect Zhi Yunwu, and they were not proficient in the investigation and statistics. Fortunately, a few enthusiastic students heard about this incident from nowhere, and quickly took the matter from the hands of the guards, went deep into all corners of the Huabiao altar to ask, listen, watch, remember, and then compiled it into a preliminary investigation report. After reading it, Zhi Yunwu was deeply moved, and allocated a sum of money from the small treasury of the prison country to give it to the students, so that they could continue to follow up on this matter.

At this time, he took the latest investigation report, looked at a few important data, and then sighed: "There are more people." Isn't this year's harvest good? Why are they making a fuss like the victims? Zhending, Zhongshan, what happened! ”
