Chapter 700: Analogy of the Three Kingdoms (Medium)
First, since it was Zhang Dian who clicked this point first, Yang Huairen felt that anyway, the two of them were chatting after drinking, and there was no possibility that any outsiders would listen to the words of the two of them and then spread the word with a ghost in their hearts.
"Some of the truths of all things in the world are immutable, and some are constantly changing."
Yang Huairen said, "To put it vulgarly, it's like us people, eating when we're hungry and dressing when we're cold, this is the simplest eternal truth."
And what we like to eat and what we like to wear will change with time and occasion, and it will change over time. ”
Maybe the two of them really drank too much, or maybe it really felt like meeting a soulmate who could talk, and both of them opened the conversation.
Zhang Dun's eyes didn't know where to freeze, and he pondered for a while, "Yang Jungong's metaphor is good, at first glance it does feel too popular, but if you think about it, people live in the world, it is indeed such a truth."
In this way, the old man also solved the doubts in his heart. Taizu's testament was indeed right a hundred years ago, and under the circumstances at that time, emphasizing literature over military force was beneficial and harmless to the stability of the entire court and the country.
But today, more than 100 years later, people are still obsessed with this truth, which is a bit out of place. There should also be a balance between the civil and military forces, and the influence of favoring one over the other over the other is already deeply rooted.
To change, it seems that it is no longer in the hands of ordinary people such as you and me. ”
"Not necessarily."
Yang Huairen said with a smile, "Has Zhang Xianggong heard the allusion of Yugong moving mountains?" ”
Zhang Duan nodded, feeling that Yang Huairen suddenly came up with this allusion a little funny, "Yang Jungong wouldn't really think that, right?"
The foolish man who moved mountains, the spirit of perseverance is indeed commendable, but with such a stupid method, time is running out. The old man has passed the age of sixtieth, even if Yang Jungong is young, how can you ensure that foreign enemies will not invade in these decades? ”
"Hahahaha!"
Yang Huairen suddenly laughed, startling Zhang Du's body trembled, "Why did Yang Jungong laugh wildly? ”
"Zhang Xianggong misunderstood what I meant."
"Oh? Does Yang Jungong think that the foolish prince is not stupid? ”
Yang Huairen shook his head, "No, I think Yugong is very stupid, and the immortal Kua'e who was touched is also very stupid." ”
Yang Huairen said it freely, there was a kind of domineering that no one paid attention to after getting drunk, which made Zhang Duan dumbfounded, and said in his heart Yang Huairen, this kid is too arrogant, even if he looks down on the fool, even the gods can't look down on him, is he confused about eating and drinking?
Yang Huairen didn't care, and continued to say with a domineering attitude of pointing out the country, "They are indeed stupid." Not only that, but it's also thankless.
Isn't it just for the sake of being close to the road and saving trouble? So why didn't he move? Isn't that stubborn nostalgia a little too stupid? If his children and grandchildren follow him to open the mountain, what will be their source of livelihood?
His whole family started the mountain, where did his son come from? Even if he had married a wife beforehand, where did his daughter-in-law come from? How does a man with no income and no survival skills find a lady who is willing to accompany him to open a mountain? ”
"This ......"
Zhang Dian felt that Yang Huairen seemed to have misunderstood the meaning of the story of Yugong moving mountains, it was originally a legendary story, there was no need to be too serious, and Yang Huairen's questions were all related to real life, was it too realistic?
However, after the surprise just now, Zhang Dian did not show more surprise, but was willing to continue to listen to him.
"It's all reality. Since Yugong is for convenience and to live a better and more convenient life, then he should not bury his life and that of his children and grandchildren in the mountains that do not see the light of day.
There is also the Kua'e clan, although he is a god, but his head is not open. The foolish man wants to dig the mountain, you just let him dig it, what are you doing?
Maybe the Kwa E clan is just idle, willing to peek at the world when it's okay, and willing to pretend to be a big man to help when he sees a hard-working person, but if you help, you can help, and you can't help Yugong, and hurt more people, right?
If you move the mountain, will the mountain hit the children if it moves to a new place? Even if you can't hit the children, it's not good to hit the flowers and plants.
Even if you can't hit the children and flowers, if you move such a big mountain to a new place, will it block the way for more people to go out? This kind of thing that harms others and is not beneficial to oneself is done by a god, do you think he is stupid? ”
Zhang Dian was stunned at this time, Yang Huairen muttered a lot of wine and words, which seemed to be too frivolous and casual, but after listening to it, it was indeed the case.
The Kwa E clan asked the two sons to move the mountain in front of Yugong's gate, did it add to the blockage of more people?
Zhang Dian was really confused at this time, "Then Yang Jungong suddenly cited the allusion of Yugong moving mountains, what do you want to express?" ”
"I, what I want to say is not to let us learn from Yugong, but to learn from the two sons of the Kua'e clan, the disadvantages or troubles of our Great Song Dynasty are like mountains, and we don't care if our ability is enough, but it must be moved.
But let's also learn to be stupid, learn not to do good things, deliberately move the mountain to others, let the mountain block other people's way, won't we be comfortable? ”
Zhang Dian was convinced, how did he not expect Yang Huairen to come up with such an inauthentic bad idea, his own road was blocked, and he threw the things blocking the road to others to block the despicable road, this idea was too ...... Ingenious.
Yang Huairen saw that Zhang Dian turned from worry to joy, so he understood his crooked reasoning, and Zhang Dian seemed to understand a little.
"There is a good saying, I don't know if Zhang Xianggong has heard of it, it is called 'go your own way, let others have no way out'. If our Great Song Dynasty's own problems need to be solved, it will definitely not be an overnight thing, and during this time, some foreign clans in the state will take the opportunity to fight our bad ideas.
Instead of this, let's fight their bad idea first. Just like the case of Huanzhou, the Khitans instigated the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty to start a war, but they hid aside and watched the tiger fight across the mountain, and the final result must be that the Great Song and Western Xia each had losses.
Between the three kingdoms, if there is a war between the two countries, then the third country will definitely benefit, when the national strength of the Great Song and Western Xia is damaged, the Liao State will appear stronger in comparison. ”
From the allusion of Yugong moving mountains, back to the balanced relationship between the Song, Liao, Western and Xia Kingdoms, Zhang Dian seems to have seen it more thoroughly than before.
At this time, he looked at Yang Huairen again, and his eyes seemed to change again. As a person who used to be arrogant, he once felt that there was no one more thoughtful than him in the world, and after knowing Yang Huairen's whimsical ideas today, he felt that those ordinary people in the court really underestimated the young man in front of him.
