The chamberlain hurried away, and soon came back to report: "Your Majesty, the Hubu Shangshu is waiting outside the palace!" ”

Lu Chengqi calmed down a little and said, "Xuan! ”

"Yes! Xuanhu Department Shangshu Visit! ”

After that, the chamberlain withdrew from the vertical arch hall, and the Hubu Shangshulin Zhenzhong slowly strode in: "Chenlin Zhenzhong, see Your Majesty!" He made the most formal of salutes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The so-called "Zuo" is the core of the Han rites. Put your hands together in front of your chest, push them out as a bow, and retract them as an arch. Chinese etiquette, pay attention to Zhongzheng comfort, natural and elegant, pay attention to courtesy and respect, simple but not complicated. If you are not a teacher of heaven and earth, you will not bow down. Even when you see the emperor on weekdays, you don't have to give a reward, and you don't have to kneel when you are sinful.

The salute is a formal ceremony, a greeting ceremony, a respectful ceremony, and a "calm step, upright." Bow deep and respectful".

When giving the salute, depending on the dignity of the recipient or his own respectful attitude, he bows deeply or shallowly, and goes with the flow. It is mostly used for formal salutes to express solemnity.

If you are close to the recipient and cannot perform the ritual for a long time, and the occasion is more relaxed, the formal posture of the prostration is retracted to the chest and becomes a more relaxed bow. The bow ceremony is mostly a daily greeting and farewell ceremony, and it is a universal gift. The difference between bowing the back of the hand forward and bowing the back of the hand upwards is the difference between the two.

As for the military salute, it is actually a fist salute, which is also a change from the salute. In the army, the right hand can only be in the shape of a fist because the right hand holds the weapon, while the left hand is stamped on the right hand according to the requirements of the salute, and finally it becomes a fist salute.

It is similar to the salute of the later generations, and the state of etiquette is not called in vain. However, what Lu Chengqi prefers is to salute first and then soldier.

"Flat!"

Lu Chengqi stood up, slowly walked towards Lin Zhenzhong, and pondered for a while before asking, "Lin Qing, you honestly told me, if I want to start a war with the Liao State, can I hold it?" ”

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, how long will it take?"

Lin Zhenzhong asked rhetorically, he looked at Lu Chengqi upright, not afraid of being reprimanded. It's not that he doesn't understand the truth that a companion is like a tiger, but he has his own beliefs. The beliefs of the literati are sometimes more important than the imperial power.

"When the war starts, who can predict it? Maybe it's January, maybe March, maybe a year, or maybe ten years...... it's not strange" Lu Chengqi could see it, "However, Liao Guo must fight well, if you don't beat him down, I won't be able to sleep and eat for a day!" ”

When Lu Chengqi said this, he also added a Jurchen, a Meng Gu Ministry, and a Wa Kingdom, as for Goryeo, hehe, Lu Chengqi can't look at it!

Lin Zhenzhong felt incomprehensible: "Why does Your Majesty have to fight you to the death with the Liao State?" ”

Lu Chengqi can't say that the Xiaoice River period is coming, right? That would give people the impression of a monster, even if he was the emperor. When the Xiaoice period arrives, how much can the grassland produce? Under the cold and freezing, it is difficult for nomads to invade the south!

This is simply a dead cycle, when there is not enough food, the hungry steppe people will attack the Central Plains desperately. For them, the Central Plains is food and warmth, do you think they will come to attack the Central Plains? If you look at the official history, you can understand, why didn't the Jin Kingdom fight when it reached the Yangtze River? The first is that they don't know the nature of water, the second is that they occupy the Central Plains and are already satisfied, and the third is that the Han people have come back to their senses, and there are national heroes like Yue Wumu, who are about to be defeated, and can only bridge with the Southern Song Dynasty.

But Lu Chengqi will never let history repeat itself, nomads want to survive? Want to enter the Central Plains? It's not impossible, but you have to completely become a part of Dashun, be integrated by the Han people, learn Chinese characters, speak Chinese, and completely integrate into the Han nation.

It's a pity that such a grand plan and hegemony can't be known by Lin Zhenzhong. For Lin Zhenzhong, Lu Chengqi is crazy, so he wants to fight to the death with Liao.

"Your Majesty, please think again! With the current treasury, it can last for three months at most, and this is still counting the summer tax......" Lin Zhenzhong tried to persuade Lu Chengqi.

"Lin Qing rest assured, it is estimated that I just want to fight with Liao, and Yelu Hongji will not either!" Lu Chengqi said with a smile, "If the Liao Kingdom hurts, then the Jurchen, Murowei, and Menggu will all be ready to move." Yelu Hongji would rather make peace with us than let Liao go into chaos. Lin Qing, you should understand what I mean! ”

Lin Zhenzhong understood what Lu Chengqi meant, but he just wanted to improve the people's attachment and gather the people's hearts.

It is a big gamble to use tens of millions of people, and to spend an unknown amount of silver, to invest in such a "meaningless" war. And the win rate is too low, and the probability of losing is too great.

"Your Majesty, what if the war drags on for more than three months?" Lin Zhenzhong is worried about this, now that he is eating food, if he continues like this, I am afraid that even if the gods come, they will not be able to stop this financial gap!

"And Huangzhuang!" Lu Chengqi said lightly.

"Your Majesty, what if the Imperial Village has no money?" Lin Zhenzhong said unrelentingly.

"Aren't there still officials and businessmen, they are so rich!" Lu Chengqi finally showed his fangs, "Lin Qing's family, it seems that there are relatives running it?" ”

Lin Zhenzhong was taken aback: "Your Majesty wants to levy commercial taxes on officials and merchants?" ”

"It's not just business taxes!" Lu Chengqi sneered, "It is natural for the officials and gentry to pay taxes in one piece. Why can't the people accept it, but the officials can't? I'm not unsympathetic, I'm not taxed, I'm already very gracious! ”

"Your Majesty, by all means, if this move is opened, I'm afraid it will ......"

"I'm afraid of what?" Seeing Lin Zhenzhong's appearance of a dead father and mother, Lu Chengqi had no reason to be disgusted. Even if Lin Zhenzhong really thinks about Dashun, he still thinks about his own business for the first time, right?

"I'm afraid the world is in chaos!" Lin Zhenzhong persuaded bitterly.

Lu Chengqi said disdainfully: "Joke! The hearts of the people are all in me, how can the world be in chaos? Where does the chaos come from? From your mouth? Or an official or businessman like your relatives? ”

Lin Zhenzhong was speechless, indeed, Lu Chengqi's policy is too popular with the people, but this is using the interests of vested interest groups to subsidize the people, and it has to make a big incident!

"I'm not afraid of chaos, anyway, I'm all guys who want to take advantage and don't want to pay, I don't care about killing chickens and monkeys and slaughtering a few ......" When Lu Chengqi said this, he was like a night owl, and the cold seeped people.

Lin Zhenzhong trembled, and he didn't know if he was frightened, or if he was afraid that he would also become a ghost under the butcher's knife. Lu Chengqi's cold-blooded iron hand started as early as when he was in power. Anyone who dares to touch his authority is definitely a dead end. In addition, Lu Chengqi took control of the Supervision Department, and it was definitely a catch.
