Chapter 216 The Old and Confused Emperor Wu of Liang

In the General's Mansion in Chang'an City, Chen Yu was discussing with everyone, but in fact, everyone listened to Hou Mo Chen Chong's report on the information from all over the place and then expressed their opinions, Chen Yu attached great importance to intelligence work, Lou Zhao in Luoyang is undoubtedly an important hub of the intelligence network, and information from all over the country will be summarized in Luoyang and sent to Chen Yu after he identifies and classifies. 【Latest chapter reading. 】

The person in charge of information here in Chen Yu is Hou Mo Chen Chong, don't look at Hou Mo Chen Chong has always been more active in front of Chen Yu, and there is obviously a tendency to develop into a problem baby, but he is usually a person of few words, this kind of person is the most appropriate to deal with information, let him deal with these things, in addition to Chen Yu's trust, but also because Chen Yu really has no suitable candidates around him for the time being, otherwise Chen Yu would not let this fierce general Qu Cai do this civilian job.

After Hou Mo Chen Chong summarized the news, he would report to Chen Yu according to the ease of the matter, and Chen Yu was obviously very idle today, so he asked Hou Mo Chen Chong to tell him everything in detail, and Chen Yu also called Li Bi, Su Xuan, Yu Wentai and Chen Qingzhi.

Hou Mo Chen Chong knew that Chen Yu's hand was to show his trust in everyone, but he still felt a little awkward in his heart, Yuwentai was one of Chen Yu's five tiger generals, earlier than Hou Mo Chen Chong followed Chen Yu, although Yuwen Luosheng happened later, but Hou Mo Chen Chong also believed in Yuwentai's loyalty, but he had to reserve his opinion on others.

After all, Li Bi is a person who surrendered from other factions, and he surrendered in desperation, Hou Mo Chen Chong felt that Chen Yu should not trust Li Bi so much in a short period of time, that Su Yu had only been in Chen Yu for a few days, if this person was really a genius, then he should be even more careful, as for this Chen Qingzhi, it made Hou Mo Chen Chong even more depressed, he really didn't know why Chen Yu valued this powerless Southern Barbarian so much.

Chen Yu didn't know that he was the chief guard now, and he was thinking about so many things in his mind in an instant, Chen Yu said directly: "Let's pick the unimportant ones first, after dealing with the trivial matters, I will talk about the key points, so I feel lighter!" ”

"Uh....... Good! Hou Mo Chen Chong singled out what he thought was the least important news and said: "Emperor Wu of Liang convened four uncovered conferences, and more than 50,000 monks and lay people participated. ’”

"It's really unimportant news. The lord of the south doesn't do anything for a day, so he makes these mysteries and falsehoods, and it's no wonder that the country can be governed well! Chen Yu complained casually.

"Ahem!" Seeing that his emperor was sprayed, where could Chen Qingzhi sit still, "Promoting Buddhism is to educate the people to be good." This is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, why is it so unbearable by you! ”

"I won't tell you the truth, I will be going to demolish the Buddhist hall and force the monks to return to the laity in my territory after a while, these national moths who do not pay taxes and do not produce should have been rectified a long time ago, this matter is just right to wait for Qian Gui to come back and hand it over to him, that kid has no taboos like Lou Zhao!" Chen Yu said and looked sideways at Chen Qingzhi, and said: "Emperor Wu of Liang is indeed a rare emperor who is eloquent, both civil and military, and versatile, but that is all in the past!" ”

"My lord governs the country diligently and thriftily, and every day is conscientious and never slackens. He is magnanimous and has the spirit of a saint, and there are several such emperors throughout the ages! Chen Qingzhi immediately retorted dissatisfied.

"Xiao Yan does only eat one meal a day, and a quilt has to be covered for two years before it is changed, but the folk customs of Liang State are extravagant, General Chen should know more about this than me, I know that I am not just talking, a monarch who governs the country thinks that it is enough for him to be frugal, isn't this ridiculous?" Chen Yu was extremely disdainful of Emperor Wu Liang's practices, even if he was a good person when he was young, he would inevitably be confused once he was old. Xiao Yan is exactly this kind of person, and he is too confused.

"The disadvantages of the southern country are not only extravagant, you officials only know that the rampant excesses have led to the displacement of the people. The hidden evils are not small, the officials in the south are vying for flattery, selfish and selfish people are everywhere, and the officials have long been unfair in doing things! Chen Yu continued to sneer and said: "The lesson of the Great Wei is that not only does the south not absorb education, but also gradually has a state of affairs that has become more serious, so it's no wonder if there is no big incident!" ”

Chen Yu, a man who has lived on the northern border for many years. was able to point out the shortcomings of his country, how could Chen Qingzhi not be very surprised by this, but Chen Qingzhi didn't want to lose face, he still looked unconvinced, but his attitude was not as confident as before.

"The last point is that your imperial court expenses are too huge, and you have built a lot of flashy buildings, these are just vain labor and money, and you can blame others for other points, this point is indeed the head of your lord, not to mention that the temple has been built countless times, and you have nothing to do with it, and let the minister take the money to redeem him, has this kind of absurd thing ever happened in the past? As everyone knows, the money spent by the minister will be doubled from the people! Chen Yu chuckled and said, "General Chen! Do I have a word of truth? ”

"Why do you know so much about the situation of our dynasty, and you can point out the disadvantages in a burst of blood, if your remarks can reach the heavens, then ......" Chen Qingzhi now really believes that Chen Yu's calculation is exhaustive, and he didn't expect that the other party can even be counted thousands of miles away.

"It's nonsense to say, your son of heaven won't pay attention to it!" Chen Yu's words are indeed not untargeted, these four suggestions were put forward by He Chen, the minister of the Southern Dynasty, not long after, and Chen Yu just used them for reference.

He Chen's suggestion was very good, it could be described as hitting the nail on the head, but not only did not get a reward, but was reprimanded by Xiao Yan, He Chen finally had to apologize and say that he was lying falsely, this is a thing, with this kind of old and confused emperor, the country's cholera is accumulating, just waiting for an outlet to break out and vent out.

Seeing that Chen Qingzhi still wanted to distinguish, Chen Yu smiled helplessly, "Xiao Yan's cultivation of Buddhism is a good thing, but it is too extreme, he is not wrong to take care of the children of the family clan, but he is too doting, he wants to govern the country well but cannot be sympathetic to the people and soldiers, as a king, it is unfair to handle affairs, and to protect the interests of the royal family and nobles by harming the interests of the country, is this kind of master really worth following the general?" ”

"As a courtier, you should speak out and advise the monarch in the face of the mistakes of the monarch, how can a courtier turn his back on the monarch because of this!" This topic is obviously close to Chen Qingzhi's bottom line, although he thinks that Chen Yu sees the problem very accurately and says it right, but he will not turn his back on the monarch because he is unbearable.

"Let's get to the bottom of these things first!" Chen Yu also felt that it was almost the same, the foolish and loyal thoughts of He Batsheng and others had only changed by his "transformation" over the years, of course he didn't expect Chen Qingzhi to change his concept so quickly, Chen Yu said to Hou Mo Chen Chong, "Go on!" ”

"Lord Tianzhu stayed in the palace overnight drunk, and went back to Jinyang in a panic early the next morning!" Hou Mo Chen Chong felt that this news was the same as the one above, it was a trivial matter, but after all, Luoyang was close, so he felt that this matter was more important.

"What do you think?" Chen Yu seemed to ask casually.

Su Sui is engaged in the economy and doesn't know about it, Chen Qingzhi is afraid that the north will not be chaotic, so he doesn't bother to pay attention to it, Yuwentai is cautious, not thoughtful and unwilling to speak casually, so that Li Bi, who has just taken refuge, is very anxious to show himself.

"Now that the war in the north has basically subsided, I am afraid that Your Majesty's attention will move back to the court, and it is inevitable that there will be a contest between the Son of Heaven and the Heavenly Pillar!" Li Bi said.

"What do you think, Kurose?" Chen Yu continued to ask.

"I think what Master Li Bi said is right, we should have prepared for this in advance!" Yu Wentai thought for a moment before speaking.

Chen Yu smiled slightly after hearing this, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table, "What you said is right, as for these preparations, I have already started!" (To be continued.) )
