To be merciful to one's enemies is to be cruel to oneself. Don't have illusions about Xu Jie, don't have illusions about Emperor Jiajing, the reason why fantasy is called fantasy is because it will never come true.
"Xin'er, are you okay?" Luo Heng saw that Luo Xin's face was constantly changing, and his eyebrows were locked with worry, and he couldn't help but ask worriedly.
Luo Xin looked at Luo Heng and said silently for a moment: "Grandpa, if I become a bad person, such as ...... Like Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period......"
Luo Heng looked at Luo Xin blankly, just as Luo Xin began to worry about whether his grandfather would kill his relatives in righteousness and tie him up and send him to Dali Temple, he saw Luo Heng in high spirits and said:
"What kind of bad is this, this is called ability. It would be better if you could do what Cao Pi did. ”
This time it was Luo Xin's turn to be stunned and looked at Luo Heng in disbelief. Grandpa, this is ruthless enough, I didn't see it. Let him be Cao Pi, wouldn't that let him overthrow Emperor Jiajing and become the emperor himself?
"There's nothing strange about that!" Luo Heng said lightly: "This world will not always belong to the old Zhu family, our old Luo family also fought for the world back then, but the old ancestor did not fight for Li Shimin." ”
Luo Xin knew that the ancestor that his grandfather said was Luo Yi, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: "It seems that the old Luo family has a rebellious factor in its blood, is it also affected by itself?" ”
"But......" Luo Heng frowned and said: "Such a big thing that pierces the sky is not something that can be done just by thinking about it, the old ancestor was strong and strong, and he also died." Xin'er, how did you come up with this idea? ”
Luo Xin was silent for a while, he could feel the concern of his grandfather for him at this time, and regardless of the determination to stand on his side, he sighed lightly and said:
"I'm a great master!"
Luo Heng's face changed, a look of nervousness appeared on his face, he walked around the pavilion, and finally said with a solemn face:
"Xin'er, you don't have military power!"
"I know! That's why I'm worried! ”
"What then?"
Luo Xin shook his head lightly and said, "Things haven't come to that point yet, I just want to do something back." ”
"What do you want to do?"
Luo Xin looked at Luo Heng steadily, Luo Heng's eyes flashed with the wisdom of the old man, straightened his waist and said:
"Xin'er, do you know why I always disagreed with your uncle and your cousin to join the army?"
"It's because I'm afraid that my uncle and cousin will be in danger."
"It's just one aspect. Because I know that once I join the army, sometimes I can't help myself. Xin'er, if you are a simple civil official, in Daming, even if you commit a crime, at most you will be dismissed. But generals are different, they will die at any time. Of course...... It will also be reversed at any time. Grandpa stopped them, just thinking that the old Luo family could pass on the ancestry.
However, since our Lao Luo family has been forced into a corner and can be wiped out at any time, then our Lao Luo family cannot sit still. In this regard, grandpa and I can be trusted, your uncle, and your cousin are all trustworthy. Your uncle...... He's timid, so don't talk to him. ”
Luo Xin pondered for a moment, and his gaze became determined. whispered to Luo Heng: "Grandpa, I want to be so ...... like this"
Luo Heng nodded, and also lowered his voice and said, "Tomorrow, I will send someone to the Shenshu camp to find your father and your uncle, and ask them to come back in the evening." ”
Luo Xin nodded and said, "Grandpa, I wronged you to pretend to be sick." ”
"It's good!" Luo Heng nodded.
The grandfather and grandson left the pavilion and returned to their own rooms. Luo Xin returned to his study, Die'er immediately made tea for Luo Xin, Luo Xin picked up the pen and began to write on the paper, he was not practicing calligraphy, but wanted to calm himself by writing. The paper on the table gradually stacked up.
"Hoo ......"
Luo Nobu let out a long breath, and his whole mind calmed down. He took a pen and wrote two words on the paper.
Jiajing.
His eyes fell on the word "Jiajing", and his calm mind began to think calmly.
Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the royal family and scholars have ruled the world together, so that the status of Shilin has been dramatically improved, and as a civil official, he can quarrel loudly with the emperor in the court, and the spit stars are sprayed on the emperor's face. Let the scholars shout out the words "Ming Yangshi ...... for a hundred years", but this kind of literati's integrity and courage came to an abrupt end when Emperor Jiajing came. The first twenty years of Emperor Jiajing's reign were twenty years of constant struggle with the literati.
Emperor Jiajing through repeated dismissals, exile, and court rods, the courage of the Ming civil officials was gone, and the integrity of the Ming literati was greatly gone, and the Ming Dynasty completely became a hall of words of Emperor Jiajing. One sentence can decide anyone's life and death, so that the Ming civil officials have become a group of people without integrity, in this case, if you want to have a smooth career and a high career, you can only have the right mind of Emperor Jiajing. Similarly, if you want to harm someone, as long as you can make Emperor Jiajing move, so from this point of view, Luo Xin and a group of petty officials of the sixth and seventh grades are not wishful thinking of killing Zou Yinglong, a second-rank member of the dynasty.
It's just that everyone knows that the emperor's heart is unpredictable, especially Emperor Jiajing, especially Emperor Jiajing in old age, is even more unpredictable. Although Luo Xin had a full understanding of Jiajing's character through history books in his previous life, there was still a gap between books and reality. After coming to the Ming Dynasty and having several contacts with Emperor Jiajing, Luo Xin already had a more vivid understanding of Emperor Jiajing, but he could still feel that Emperor Jiajing was changeable.
However, Luo Xin also knew that even if Emperor Jiajing was unpredictable, he could not resist the countless civil officials of the Ming Dynasty pondering him, and he had been in power for a long time, and for decades, in fact, Emperor Jiajing had been thoroughly studied, but Emperor Jiajing did not know it, and let some civil officials play with it, but he still felt that he was arbitrary. Although Yan Song finally died at the hands of Jiajing, Yan Song can be said to have played Emperor Jiajing for a lifetime.
People have weaknesses, as long as they make good use of Emperor Jiajing's weaknesses, Luo Xin feels that his predicament can be solved.
So, what was Emperor Jiajing's weakness?
The first is fear of trouble!
He only thinks about cultivating the Tao, and always wants to avoid any trouble, and in order to avoid trouble, he hardly even goes to the court. As long as it was a troublesome thing, he almost instinctively avoided it.
The second is the lack of money.
Daming has always been short of money, Yin eats grain, and after Emperor Jiajing cultivates, he is even more short of money, which has become Emperor Jiajing's biggest concern. The reason why Yan Song was able to dominate the court alone, in addition to his good writing of green words and good charm, Yan Song's good financial management is also an important reason why Emperor Jiajing has always been inseparable from him.
However, are there still people who are good at managing money in the court today?
