After everyone dispersed, the three Tongzhi and Batu and Yunrong took Namur and stayed together.

"All of you here are people who have the right to anticipate the situation, and Na Mu'er has also been an outsider, and some things we must explain to our faces," Ortai waited for everyone to sit down, stared at Li Yu with both eyes and said, "Yuzi, you came back from the customs this time, and you are more and more bold and capable, we all feel that you are mature, and we are happy for you in our hearts, but what did you do today, do you think that we plan to divide your authority?" ”

Li Yu hurriedly stood up and explained, but Ortai held him down and continued: "The separation of the administrative power, military power and prison litigation power of the Great Commander's Mansion is a last resort, you have been ignoring government affairs outside for a long time, we don't blame you, Fengzhou is poor and weak and can't withstand the war, but if you want to survive and have to fight, you can only rely on you to command the army outside, and this situation will happen in the future." But you're gone, how can Toyosu be stable? How to develop? Fortunately, there are still major events on the grassland to discuss this custom, when the ancestor Genghis Khan went out on the expedition, he used this method to stabilize the rear, and also set up the system of the Kuritai Assembly to determine the successor, we learned this set of nobles, Nuoyan's method, and gradually formed a unique Fengzhou system, this system not only safeguards the interests of the people of all ethnic groups, but also ensures the stability and development of Fengzhou, but the Han people in the Guannai do not understand these, they are used to being slaves, and the mind is more superstitious about the emperor and the imperial court, once they stand in Fengzhou, Unconsciously will change our Fengzhou system, which is almost a catastrophe for the Hu and Han mixed Fengzhou, we took precautions to preemptively establish the system of parliamentary officials, the system of the public assembly, and the separation of authority of the Great Commander's Office, so that it is mutually restrictive, in the future anyone who wants to change our system will be difficult, Na Mu'er said that I do not do my job, do not repair the law and ignore prison lawsuits, but all day long to meddle in government affairs, this is a good thing, so I made up my mind, in the future to concentrate on criminal lawsuits, the Prime Minister's Office will be handed over to Yushan, I have discussed it with Nianfeng, we are both in our forties, and the great cause of Fengzhou will not be completed in ten or twenty years, so we will pave the way for you young people. ”

"Yuzi, don't be careful, we are thinking about the future of Fengzhou, the people of Fengzhou trust you, no one can replace you, what are you pushing me out for, I have to learn and do this pre-important thing, can I be the deputy commander?" Batu also said eagerly.

"You are wrong, you are my elders and brothers, I trust you, and besides, I am a hunter and farmer, what do I want authority for? I was forced by Chahar Khan," Li Yu blushed, waved his hand and said, "On the way back from the old upper capital, I was thinking about how to deal with Chahar Khan's ghost idea, his purpose in detaining Li Meng is nothing more than to control the foundation of Fengzhou in his hands in the future, and Li Meng is my eldest son, and he has the right to inherit as a matter of course, and there are more than 10,000 Chahar people in Fengzhou, maybe more in the future, and they will definitely support Li Meng, so that Fengzhou will have the possibility of civil strife and division in the future, That's why I made up my mind to determine the future of Fengzhou as soon as possible, Fengzhou is everyone's, not mine, if I have an accident, Liu Xingzuo will take over as the commander, and Liu Xingzuo will be followed by Batu. Liu Xingzuo's eldest brother in Liaodong was bent on establishing a Han people, Mongolian and Zhushen equal Liaodong people's own country, to Fengzhou still did not change the original intention, I believe that he can treat the people of all ethnic groups in Fengzhou, Batu is a Mongolian, and at the same time familiar with the Han scriptures since childhood, there is no confusion of Huayi, I trust them, and hand over this arrangement to the people of Fengzhou for public discussion, as long as the people of Fengzhou accept, Chahar Khan will not want to take an inch of land and a head of livestock from Fengzhou in the future. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Ortai patted Li Yu's back and smiled: "This is our elm, our great commander, I sometimes wonder, our luck is not too good, it seems that God is going to send a great responsibility to us - Chahar Khan invaded the right wing of Mongolia in the west, and killed all the nobles and noyans who had a little strength and fame, but he was unable to control the vast land of Tumut, and the Ming and Jin countries were fighting each other at this time, and Tumut River became a borderless land that no one could take care of, like a ripe fruit, The fleeting opportunity fell to us. Let's see who we are, Yuzi is a wild man who escaped from the Jin country, I and Batu and Buyantu are lost dogs, Zhao Ji They are horse thieves, Bai Xianzhi and Ma Guangyuan are the Ming army who can't get along in the pass, Liu Xingzuo has nowhere to stay on both sides of the Ming and Jin, Yunhezhou was driven out by the Chahar people, Li Nianfeng never revealed his life experience, and he must also be a person who died outside the Guan, and Li Yushan and Du Mengqing are also people who can't get into the Jinshi, it is people like us who actually brought Fengzhou to today, How many people have we died, how many times have we faced a desperate situation, and we have stumbled through, isn't this God's arrangement? ”

Ortai said with tears welling up in his eyes, and everyone was also emotional, Li Yu hugged Na Mu'er's shoulder and said: "Maybe we are really lucky, but I am still scared when I think of the situation in Fengzhou, Na Mu'er, we are good brothers, don't go back to Beijing, stay and help me, okay?" ”

"Of course I want to help you, but not now, I still have to go back to Beijing, Lord Xu Guangqi's history and the priests' Nantang have a lot of things for me to do, Yuzi, I don't want to think about the Ming Imperial Examination anymore, I want to learn something useful, there are thousands of Taixi books in the museum, although it is very hard for me to help transcribe the translation, but I can learn a lot of new knowledge, the priests also taught me the study of Taixi Gewu, and promised me to be baptized into the church," Namur said with relish, and he learned Taixi astronomy, utensils, water law, The mine was described to everyone vividly, and everyone listened attentively, thinking about those strange things in their heads.

Na Mu'er finally shook his head and said: "I don't like the Ming Kingdom, there is evil spirit everywhere in the Jingshi, those Ming State officials are sanctimonious, full of moral articles, but in private they do bad things such as male thieves and female prostitutes, clever and robbing, I sometimes think that there may be something wrong with the study of the saints, otherwise how can so many hypocrites be taught?" It is still Tessie's practical learning, which can at least solve the difficulties of people's livelihood. ”

"There is no problem with the study of the saint itself, Master Wang Gen (Mr. Xinzhai) Zeng Yun 'the people's daily use is the way', willing to pass on the scriptures and teach the people with the peddlers' pawns, advocating the people's daily learning, Master He Xinyin (Mr. Fushan) also opened the Cuihe Hall, recruited the villagers to gather and live, cultivate together, pay taxes together, share the harvest together, set up a righteous warehouse to support the weak, establish a public school to teach the young, the two masters are disciples of the Holy School, do not seek their own lives and seek the way of the people to establish the world, how can they be called hypocrites, the problem is that the emperor has tampered with it wantonly, The so-called sacred study has become the official study of the emperor's rule of the world, and the study of the sage is actually a fallacy and heresy, and the more the scholar reads the book, the greater the distortion of human nature, and the inconsistency between the surface and the inside is inevitable. Li Fugui said after a while.

"What Brother Nian Feng said is the study of the heart, Mr. Yang Ming's advocacy of the 'unity of knowledge and action' and 'to the conscience' has always been advocated by me, but the mind advocates 'the heart is reason', ignoring the objective moral constraints, too much emphasis on personal self-cultivation and perception, so that Wang Xue is almost Zen learning, so that now the reader talks about the mind, does not do practical practice, and there are more shameless people to use it to be uninhibited and abusive, and the Taizhou study of the mind is even more paradoxical, such as Master Wang Gen once said that 'the streets are full of saints', Master He Xinyin also said' 'Fatherless and ungentleman is not killing the father and killing the king', it seems too unreasonable, what does Brother Nianfeng think? Li Huai gave up his hand to Li Fugui for advice.

"Brother Fugui, what happened to that Cuihetang? Are the villagers doing well? Li Yu also interjected and asked, Master He Xinyin's "Cuihe Hall" was somewhat similar to what he had experienced in Wula Mountain and what he had done in the early days of Fengzhou, which couldn't help but arouse his interest.

"'Cuihetang' disintegrated, Mr. Fushan eventually died at the hands of Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the Ming Kingdom, and Wang Zhiyuan, the governor of Huguang, Mr. Fushan opposed Zhu Zi's 'preservation of heavenly principles and destruction of human desires', and advocated 'few desires', but people always have desires, and suppressing human desires must be counterproductive, 'Cuihetang' is destroyed by human desires, and the people are still willing to live by themselves. Master Wang Gen advocates the people's daily learning, and the people know their days best, they are saints in how to live, they don't need to worry about the court and the government, give them the freedom to live, they know what to do, 'the streets are full of saints' is not an exaggeration, as for 'no father and no king, not killing the father and killing the king', Yushan, if the monarch is evil, do you also do evil? For example, we Fengzhou, both respect the Ming Kingdom and respect Chahar, we will never make the Ming Emperor and Chahar Khan rebel, but what they do is despised by us, and we will never blindly obey them, Fengzhou will always adhere to its own system, and take the road of freedom and equality without slavery and nobility. ”

Everyone laughed, and Toyoshu's practice of stepping on two boats seemed to have become high-sounding, and there was a basis for it from the master.

Li Fugui took a sip of water and continued: "Officials talk about the nature of the mind and even for the abuse and corruption, the mind has been there before, and the fault of the non-mind has been learned, the villain is a villain after all, and he can always find an excuse for himself, and there are always villains rampant in the past dynasties, which eventually leads to the change of dynasty, and the cycle of chaos in the world continues, which shows that there is a problem with the knowledge we use to govern the world, and the same is true of the study of the mind, and the same is true of the study of other families, so we must re-explore the words of the sage, and find a different way to govern the world from the past, It takes a long time and is extremely difficult, but that's what we readers have to do. ”

Li Fugui's words made everyone fall into contemplation, Li Huai needless to say, Ortai, Yunrong, Batu, and Namur are also familiar with the classics of Chinese books, and even Li Yu can barely be regarded as having read books, and everyone seems to have a heavy sense of responsibility.

"Brother Nian Feng, you know that I occasionally have a hot brain, and I have realized freedom and equality from Zhuangzi's learning and Buddhism, but this is almost illusory, in fact, it is difficult for us to do it, so what should be the way of governance in Fengzhou?" Yun Rong asked suddenly.

"Checks and balances, only checks and balances are the way, the others are all deceitful nonsense, I have only realized this from Yuzi in recent years" Li Fugui pointed to the stunned Li Yu, and then spoke carefully to everyone, "To be honest, Yuzi is not a person who does great things at all, he is not greedy for authority, and he does not understand power and fraud, and his knowledge is even more of a mess, only leading troops to fight is extremely smart, and he is a good person, if he is absolutely trampled under his feet in the pass, but his position in Fengzhou is as solid as a rock and unshakable, everyone has thought about why?" Don't tell me that he has a good heart and the people trust him, these are not reliable at all, let me tell you the truth, Yuzi and Fengzhou are actually one, without Yuzi there will be no Fengzhou, and without Fengzhou Yuzi can only go home to hunt and farm, the two can not be separated at all, who wants to replace Yuzi can only meet and break the bloodstream. Look at our interior, there are Mongolian Tumerts, Chahar people, Karaqin people, Han people also have Bansheng people, Ming officials and soldiers, there will be Ming people in the future, in addition to we also have Jin Zhushen, Fengzhou various ethnic groups are interdependent and mutually restrictive, under the pressure of Chahar, Ming, Jin, only by holding a group of loyal support for Yuzi can have a chance to survive, unless you don't want to live, who dares to be half-hearted? Our external is the same, relying on the Ming State to restrain the ambitions of Chahar, even when they have an absolute advantage, they do not dare to act rashly against us, on the contrary, they have to form an alliance with us to resist the threat of the Ming State and the Jin State, and the Ming State is inseparable from the Jin State, and we can also intervene in the middle, Yuzi unintentionally pulled the West in the Middle East to create this situation of checks and balances on all sides, which gives us the opportunity to survive and develop. ”

"Fengzhou's future strategy is to adhere to the policy of checks and balances, the reform of the establishment of the Commander's Government affairs, military affairs, judicial separation of powers and the parliamentary officer, public decision-making system fully embodies the policy of checks and balances, these systems must be adhered to for a long time, now we must prevent the old Fengzhou people from bullying the new Han people, and we must also prevent the Han people from bullying the old Fengzhou people after the big power, the Fengzhou people are many and only by insisting on checks and balances can we maintain stability, one thing I must remind you that the public discussion system of Fengzhou must be improved in the future, The common people are unreliable, they don't understand government affairs and only see the benefits in front of them, and they are easily bewitched by the evil people, and they still have to use virtuous officials to govern Fengzhou, but the power of officials will always be oppressive and good, greedy and corrupt, Brother Duxing, do you remember the beginning of Fengzhou's business, you always want to arrange good errands for your relatives, and I often sneak a few cakes to take home for Brother Cha to eat, we are still like this, what can others do, so the power of officials must be restricted, When we give the people the power of public deliberation, we want to tell them that they have the right to supervise the officials, and that there is another way to clean up the bastard officials before they can bear to take up their swords, spears, and clubs. ”

Silence, silence for a long time, and then everyone stood up together, applauded Li Fugui, and the applause alarmed Mo Rige and Wu Xian outside the door, and the two of them looked at it for a while, followed by a few smirks and went out again.

Ortai excitedly took Li Fugui's hand and said: "Nianfeng, I have already seen that you must have caused a big disaster in the Guannei and had to escape from the Guanwai, otherwise with your knowledge, you will not be a big official in the Ming court, but also Master Wang Gen, Master He Xinyin, and other figures, the strategy of checks and balances, this is the strategy for the future development of Fengzhou." ”

Li Fugui smiled bitterly and didn't answer, everyone sat down again and talked freely, until late at night, when Wu Langha yelled at the door and forced Li Yu to go home and sleep, and everyone dispersed.

The edict of the imperial court immigrants was issued, but there was no movement on the Fengzhou side, Tuntian Daojin was anxious, while writing a letter to scold Li Yu for being disobedient, and not even giving the face of the master, while urging the four towns of Datong, Shanxi, Yansui and Shaanxi to ask for the food money needed for immigration, the new governor of Datong, Zhang Tinggong, said that if he didn't give it, he wouldn't give it, and the deputy envoy Ma Shiying was not bad, and said a lot of good things about Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, Zhang Zongheng just replaced Wei Yunzhong as the governor of Xuanda, and he had to give his subordinates some face, and reluctantly took out 2,000 stone of grain from Yanghe; Song Tongyin, the governor of Shanxi, sent a letter complaining that the harvest was not good due to the drought in Shanxi this year, and Li Yu had not been able to clean up the thieves, and there were still many thieves in Shanxi who often made trouble, and his old man had to continue to suppress the thieves, so he could only get 3,000 stone of grain and 2,000 taels of silver, and he hoped that Li Yu could understand his predicament.

Shaanxi and Yansui towns did not express their position, they had a lot of trouble with Zhao Ji, Shaanxi Patrol Wu Sacrifice and Yansui Deputy General Cao Wenzhao sent 30,000 displaced people across the Yellow River, but Zhao Ji insisted on never accepting people if he did not give money and food, and also sent troops to block people near the partial head pass, Cao Wenzhao was also hot-tempered, and immediately sent soldiers to face each other with swords and guns, but the army on both sides of the Yansui people were piled up, and the villagers saw the villagers with tears in their eyes, no matter how they shouted above, the soldiers below mixed together and kissed each other, Cao Wenzhao sent a letter to Li Yu, said that Lord Wu Xian wanted him to come to Bitou Pass in person, and everyone would sit down and discuss anything together.

Li Yu is also a little anxious, after the autumn harvest he has some grain in his hands, the displaced people can arrange work immediately after leaving the customs at this time, and it will be troublesome to immigrate in the winter, Ortai and Li Fugui also mean to accept it when they see it, it is better than not getting anything, so Li Yu officially issued an order, Fengzhou entered a state of mobilization, immediately launched immigration-related matters, and sent Li Huai to organize people to meet the displaced people at the Bitou Pass, after arranging these things, Li Yu rushed to the Bitou Pass to meet with Wu Zhuan.

The Flying Tiger Battalion rushed to the side of the pass, and there were already people waiting outside the city, Sun Xianzu, the chief soldier of the Ningwu Pass, and Fan Erxi, the newly baked Shanxi tyrant, were guarding the roadside, and when they saw Li Yu, they greeted them with a smile.

"Master Li, now I can call you Li Shuai, you are the only one in the Ming Dynasty when you become a general soldier at the age of twenty-five or sixteen." Sun Xianzu said with a smile.

"Commander, there is an old acquaintance waiting for you, who do you think he is?" Fan Erxi leaned over and pushed one person behind him forward.

Li Yu fixed his eyes and saw that he was actually Wang Guoliang, the former Shanxi general soldier who had suffered a defeat in Hequ and had been dismissed from his post and questioned.
