Chapter 230: Monarchs and Ministers (2)
(The first update is a little late.) )
Fu informed Emperor Chongde that he must have a useful intention when he mentioned "Saying Mountain Training". This article is vast and profound, he remembers the Bi of He's family, the pearl of the Marquis of Sui, at most, vaguely remembers that sentence: the open fire of the cicada, the bait of fishing.
What does the emperor want to say?
Emperor Chongde smiled slightly: "Especially that sentence: the end can't be stronger than the original, and it can't be bigger than the arm." The bottom is light and the top is heavy, and its overlay must be easy. I've been thinking a lot lately, what is the foundation and what is the end? What about fingers and arms? What about light and heavy? But I can't always be refined, I don't know if Aiqing can solve my doubts? ”
He looked at Fu Tong happily, his brows were very stretched, and his majesty was hidden a little, as if he was really discussing the essence of learning, and was waiting for Fu Tong's answer.
It's just that what kind of knowledge does he discuss with a general? That's not all!
Where the intention is, both the monarch and the minister know. This is actually very straightforward, the king is the minister, the minister is just a small end, and the minister must recognize the duty as a minister, and the most important point is that the power and prestige of the minister must not exceed the king!
Otherwise, if the cart is turned upside down, upside down, it will lead to overturning!
Word by word, layer by layer, even Wuxia Ameng knows what it means, let alone a clever person like Fu Tong!
He knew what it meant, and he wasn't surprised. The emperor was summoned, of course, it was impossible to gossip with him about interesting things, but for another purpose, so he said these words.
The deep meaning in the words, Fu informed, but what he would think and do after knowing it, this is what Emperor Chongde wanted to see. What he wanted was Fu Tong's attitude. That's what it means!
Will Fu Tong go with the flow, or will he die without interest? If it's the latter...... No matter what, the post of General of the Western Frontier Wei can no longer be in the hands of the Fu family. Emperor Chongde narrowed his eyes, waiting for the next result.
At this moment, Fu Tong remembered what Shen Du said at the gate of the palace, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. Outside of life and death, there is no major event, and naturally there is no gain or loss.
Fu Tong decided to follow this principle as always. Survive at all times. We also want more people to survive. He thought about it, then stood up, and said in a solemn tone:
"Your Majesty, the ministers are terrified! The minister is a rough man. I only know how to be loyal to the king and serve the country! The Fu family is deeply blessed with the emperor's grace. There is nothing to repay for loyalty! The emperor has orders. The Fu family will definitely go, and then die! ”
With that, he looked up. Let Emperor Chongde see the resoluteness on his face clearly, and there is a posture of "if the emperor doesn't believe it, he won't sit down".
His resoluteness, Emperor Chongde saw it, and was quite satisfied with his attitude, but it was not enough, he still had to hear Fu Tong say it himself, so he asked again: "So, how can General Fu be loyal?" ”
Talk about it, anyone will. This time, he wanted to know Fu Tong's actual actions.
Fu Tong's expression was suddenly very embarrassed, and he said embarrassedly: "The minister is old, and I am afraid that he will not be able to do things effectively." But the minister still has a son, which can be driven by the emperor. It's just that before the minister came to Jingzhao, the eldest son Huaide was ill, and the minister was afraid that he would fail the emperor. Ask the emperor for forgiveness! ”
It is difficult to take responsibility for the physical illness, what does this mean, it is too clear!
At this moment, Emperor Chongde nodded with satisfaction and said softly: "Aiqing, please sit down, I know that the Fu family is loyal, and I am very happy!" ”
Of course Emperor Chongde is satisfied, this result is what he is looking forward to, Fu Tong knows each other like this, it will save a lot of trouble, and he doesn't have to think of any means to deal with the Fu family!
The way to stay is to be enviolated, and he is also very clear, so he praised Fu Tong and the Fu family at the moment, saying that he would never treat the Fu family badly.
As long as he takes back the position of General of the Western Frontier Wei and controls the Western Xinjiang in his hands, Emperor Chongde feels that it is okay to compensate the Fu family for his kindness.
From ancient times to the present, the way of kings and ministers is a big problem, and the famous Confucians have discussed too much about it, and all dynasties have different orientations.
In addition to the four words "monarch and minister", there is also "the monarch regards the minister as a sibling, and the minister regards the minister as the heart; The king regards the minister as a dog and a horse, the minister regards the king as a countryman, the king regards the minister as a mustard, and the minister regards the king as an enemy. In this way, there is a method of "the king makes the ministers courteous, and the ministers are loyal......
But no matter which description it is, it can't hide the fact that as an emperor, no matter what he wants to do, his heart is the most respectful.
The difference is that some emperors act with restraint and softness, can control their inner desires/desires, and leave a lot of beautiful talks, which can be described as an external Confucian internal law;
And some emperors acted wantonly and fiercely, but they did not hide their ambitions and put them into reality, causing disasters continuously, which can be called Confucianism and internal hegemony!
Emperor Chongde was once known as the Iron and Blood Emperor, and it was undoubtedly the latter. Confucianism and internal tyranny, no praise or disparagement, it just depends on who is in what situation. Therefore, "it is difficult to be a king, and it is not easy to be a minister" is the most suitable for the situation of the dynasty.
Chang Kang listened to the conversation between the two monarchs and ministers on the side, and only felt a cold sweat on his back. Obviously, these two people said with a smile, but he felt that there was a sword and sword shadow flashing. He is afraid, what he is afraid of is that the sword has no eyes, he is an internal servant, and he has no children and grandchildren, so he only has one life.
Amitabha, Amitabha......
And the two monarchs and ministers in the palace are still smiling, in addition to "Speaking of Mountain Training", they also talked about Liu An, and talked about "quiet" and "inaction", saying that if they can really do this, they can be regarded as a great success.
Chang Kang doesn't understand any of this. However, someone can understand it.
……
……
Shen Du stayed outside the palace gate, waiting for Fu Tong to come out. He has nothing to do today, and of course he will not enter the palace. Originally, he sent Fu Tong into the palace, and his duty was completed. Next, there will definitely be an inner guard to send Fu Tong to his home.
But how could Shen Du leave with confidence? Not to mention that Fu Tong is Gu Yan's maternal grandfather, just saying that Fu Tong is from Xijiangwei is enough to make him wait here.
He waited for a long time, an hour had passed, and he had not yet seen the chamberlain send Fu Tong out. How is Fu Tong in the Zichen Palace? He was anxious, but he didn't show it.
He looked as usual, but the guards of the palace gate bureau couldn't hold their breath first. After all, it wasn't appropriate for Lord Shen to stand outside the palace gate like this.
"Lord Shen, why don't you come in first to rest and rest, and when the old general comes out, the slave will notify you immediately." The guard said this and beckoned Shen Du into the low house next to the palace gate.
This low house is where the palace gate bureau is located, which is the most special place in the palace six bureaus.
Shen Du often went in and out of the palace, and was very polite to the guards of the palace gate bureau, and laid a little good cause, and at this time there were good results.
But how could Shen Du casually enter the palace gate? He was about to refuse, but he saw Fu Tong walk out from a distance, and now, he didn't have to say any reason, just thanked the guards for their kindness.
Fu Tong quickly walked out of the palace gate, looking at his normal steps, his face did not change, it seemed that he had not suffered any disasters in the Zichen Palace, at least all his beards and tails. - Shen Du only has this simple idea.
When he saw Shen Du, Fu Tong also smiled, his interest seemed to be very high, and he asked, "Has Little Brother Shen watched "Huainanzi"?" This book is a collection of Taoist masterpieces, and it is a good book, so you should go and see it. ”
Shen Du was stunned for a moment, unable to keep up with Fu Tong's thoughts. What stimulated General Fu? What do you say about "Huainanzi" for no reason? What happened in the Zichen Palace?
Over there, Fu Tong smiled and left Miyagi step by step. It wasn't until he returned to Gu's house that the smile on his face faded.
(Extra: The notebook has been locked from half past eight to now, and I can't exhaust all methods, and I almost collapsed in the morning!) Then, all of a sudden, it was OK again, I thought the content of this chapter was lost, but fortunately it's still there, a sweat! (To be continued......)
