Chapter 21: Three Lives
Chapter 21: Three Lives
"Dongmin, don't make the old man happy anymore..."Liu Futong shouted Sheng Wenyu's expression, protesting dissatisfiedly. After going through so many things, the old man doesn't believe that you still think so simple in your heart..."
Sheng Wenyu listened, and his face instantly became extremely gray. After being silent for a long time, he sighed and responded faintly, "The prime minister is right, Yu has a lot of words in his heart, and I don't know how to start..."
"You might as well pick up the important ones and listen to them..."Liu Futong nodded lightly, and urged with his eyes at the same time.
"Well, how to say it. The longest-term thing that Zhu Butcher sees is that he never thought of finding a lord to put on his head..."Sheng Wenyu sighed again and again, shaking his head again and again. "It's ridiculous that we thought he was short-sighted and arrogant. Only now do I know that in the eyes of the fighter, he did not regard himself as anyone's subject..."
This is the place where he feels the deepest and hurts the most, and it is simply blood and tears when he says it. If they weren't in a hurry to invite Han Lin'er's mother and son back, Yingzhou Red Scarf wouldn't have faced so much trouble. And when the Yingzhou Red Turban has finished resolving the internal disputes, the other Red Turban princes have long since lost their knowledge of how far they have grown, and it may be too late for everyone to catch up...
"Yes..."Liu Futong took over the conversation and continued to sigh lowly. Every sound sounded as if the heart, liver, and lungs were twitching together, "The entire Gaoyou covenant is sprinkled with more than a dozen, and none of them mention who will be the emperor in the future." It only mentions the expulsion of the Tartars, the kindness of the people, the refraining from fratricide, and the refraining from committing crimes."
"The third article was added by others, not Zhu Fozi's original intention..."As a witness who experienced the entire process of the "Gaoyou Covenant", Tang Zihao hurriedly reminded loudly. In Zhu Fozi's original manuscript, there is no such article at all. But Zhao Junyong and others were afraid that he would take the position of Sesame Li with his strength, so they insisted on adding it. He did not object to it..."
"There are also the eighth, tenth, and fifteenth articles, which are not from Zhu Chongjiu's original intention..."Liu Futong pondered the newspaper for many days, and had already understood the essence of it, pointing to several other articles that particularly emphasized clan rights, heavenly ways, and hierarchical morality, and asked with a wry smile.
"Yes, the prime minister guessed correctly at all..."Tang Zihao stepped forward and glanced at it, sighing and responding. These are the results of a lot of concessions to each other. In Zhu Fozi's eyes, I am afraid that all living beings are really equal. Even God, he has no right to condemn others at will. And he doesn't care about any favors, but emphasizes the interests of the ordinary people everywhere, and even the official positions of the court are eager to be granted by the people, not from above..."
"Isn't that deeply influenced by the science of the sub-sage? When Sheng Wenyu heard this, he instinctively thought of some of the points repeatedly emphasized in "Mencius", and said with a frown.
"Yes, not exactly... There should be a large part of it that should come from the Buddhist family..."Tang Zihao nodded, and unconsciously, a little admiration surged on his face again, "Anyway, no one can see through what he thinks." Sometimes it seems that the vision is very long-term, and sometimes, even the small things under the nose are confused... Maybe it's an extraordinary person, doing extraordinary things. I'm a mortal, how can I figure it out for a while..."
"Extraordinary people? How do you know if he didn't hit the nail on the head? Maybe it's because he doesn't read much and has poor knowledge that he does everything spontaneously and is not confused by external things. Sheng Wenyu couldn't stand Tang Zihao saying good things for Zhu Chongjiu at every turn, frowning and questioning.
"Less reading? Can you build such a weapon as artillery with little study? And can you continue to innovate? Tang Zihao glanced back at him, and his voice gradually turned higher. It's not that he doesn't read much, it's that he knows a lot of things that we don't even know or have never heard of. That's why we can create those strange magic weapons, so we can take the initiative to avoid some disasters and take precautions..."
"Possessed by Maitreya again, in a dream?" Sheng Wenyu was not convinced at all, and rolled his eyes to grab the white.
"Maybe it's really as you said..."Tang Zihao sighed again and nodded slightly, "According to legend, Maitreya Buddha is a three-life Buddha who can see the past, present and future at the same time. If he had known that after Han Lin'er returned, there would inevitably be big trouble inside the red scarf. Some of his actions at the beginning can be fully explained. If he had known that Sesame Li would definitely die of his injuries, and would pass on the throne to him before he died, it would have been a matter of indifference if he had promised to add the third article, so he would not argue with Zhao Junyong and others... If he"
"Alright, alright, Zihao, stop... Say it again, and he will rise on land. "Listening to the great light made Tang Zihao speak more and more mysterious, Liu Futong couldn't bear it anymore and interrupted loudly." If he could really see the future, he should know that Zhang Shicheng would betray him and stand on his own, and Zhu Chongba would be further and further away from him. Alas, I don't know if the actions of these two people are considered a violation of Article 3..."
"At present, it's definitely not counted..."Tang Zihao thought for a while, and smiled bitterly, "As far as I know, after Zhang Shicheng proclaimed himself King Wu, in his letter to Zhu Fozi, he still regarded himself as a subordinate, and the grain and grass sent to Huaiyang had not been reduced by half a cent. And that Zhu Chongba simply found a scapegoat and slaughtered it directly, and explained to Huaiyang. And until now, iron ore is still being transported to Yangzhou in large quantities. All year round, the number of courtesies is perfect..."
"These two treacherous and cunning guys..."Liu Futong scolded with a smile and waved his hand vigorously, "Okay, don't talk about them." We don't need to worry about the affairs of Zhu Butcher's side. Let's talk about the content of the "Gaoyou Covenant", is it possible that we will borrow some of the content..."
"It's hard..."
"Rarely..."
As soon as the words fell, Sheng Wenyu and Tang Zihao replied loudly, and the speed was almost identical. Immediately, the two of them humbled each other, and the former took the lead in adding, "The so-called orange of Huainan is the orange of Huaibei." The situation on his side is completely different from ours. Zhu Chongjiu's descendants were either brought out by him or subdued by him. So no matter what he does, no one dares to really oppose it, at best, he fills in the gaps..."
"Zhao Junyong, Peng Da, and Pan Lezi are now equivalent to sending people under the fence. The little soldiers and horses in his hands all rely on Zhu Fozi to provide grain and grass regularly, so that he can barely maintain food and clothing. I don't have the strength to fight him. There are not many lords who come out, and they secretly support a few of them..."Tang Zihao looked at Liu Futong's face and whispered.
"Also, on his side, from the very beginning, the Ming Sect was not allowed to interfere in politics... What religion is religion, and the state is the state..."
"Xu Su had just been washed by the flood of Tokto, and the gentry were either drowned or deserted, and had nothing like the common people. On the Huaiyang side, those who should have moved have already been moved, and the rest will either die or obey Zhu Fozi, and there is no other choice at all..."
The more they talked, the more they talked, the more envious they became, and they couldn't wait to fly over and never come back. In contrast, the situation on the side of Yingzhou Red Scarf is much more complicated. First of all, Du Zundao and Luo Wensu and others were not under Liu Futong in the Ming Sect. and all of them hold secular official positions, and have the right to fight against him. In the past two years, it has been suppressed and motionless, which is not a normal situation.
Secondly, Sesame Li is dead, but Han Lin'er's mother and son are alive and well, and they were personally offered on top of their heads by Liu Futong.
Third, it is the influence of Mingjiao and local tyrants, which has long permeated and pervaded. Before Liu Futong took Han Lin'er back, the canon did not restrict him much. And now, if he dares to touch a single hair of Han Lin'er, it is not only a rebellion, but also an act of apostasy. Those true believers of the Ming Sect will fight with him regardless of a single qiē...
Outside the tent of the Chinese army, there was a noisy sound of crows. It sounds extremely irritating. Sheng Wenyu quickly ran to the door of the military tent and whispered a few words to his soldiers. Immediately, some people bent their bows and arrows and began to expel these black birds of bad luck. However, for a while, where can the expulsion be exhausted. The crow, who loves to peck at carrion, has a great craving for a feast that far outweighs the fear of the bow and arrow. Wherever there is an army, they will gather at the risk of death, ready to swoop down and take part in a feast of flesh and blood.
"Dongmin, leave it alone. Let it go..."Liu Futong waited impatiently in the Chinese military tent, waved his arm suddenly, and ordered loudly, "Listen to a few crows, no one will die." Does that thing have fangs and claws..."
"Yes..."Sheng Wenyu agreed in a low voice, and replied in a huff.
Liu Futong glanced at him and continued to sigh, "Forget it, the old man thinks things are simple again... I thought that the stones of other mountains could attack jade, hehe, but in the end, it was his sweet rain and my poison. Forget it, the old man did it himself... It's a big deal to hand over all the soldiers and horses, and then live in seclusion in the mountains..."
That being said, he's not a character to sit still. Gritted his teeth and thought about it, and then ordered in a low voice, "Zihao, please hurry up and go to Yangzhou again, and bring a message to Zhu Chongjiu for me." ”
"Yes..."Tang Zihao had already guessed that Liu Futong would inevitably fight back, and immediately bowed his hand.
"Just sue him" Liu Futong hesitated, his face was slightly red, "Sue him, his "Gaoyou Covenant", the old man has read it many times, and he is deeply touched. ”
"Prime Minister" Tang Zihao couldn't understand Liu Futong's intentions, and his eyes widened to seek explanation. With these few words alone, there was no need for him to make another trip himself. After all, when the "Gaoyou Covenant" was sent to Liu Futong, he also signed his name on it. As one of the first signatories, why bother to stress how deep the understanding of the covenant is?
"Alas..."Liu Futong continued to raise his head and sigh, as if he wanted to spew out all the grievances in his heart, "By the way, you also revealed some of the truth about our side to him." In particular, let him know that the invitation of Zhao Junyong and others to send his subordinates to watch the enthronement ceremony of the King of Song was not at the behest of the old man. The old man's current ambition is only to expel the Tatars as soon as possible and restore the mountains and rivers of the Han family..."
"Wow, wow, wow," hundreds of crows screamed and escaped from the top of the tent of the Chinese army, their black wings obscuring the sunlight overhead.
