Chapter 290: Zhao Pu's Anxiety Disorder
The night was hazy and the sky was dark.
Zhao Pu did not sleep, but wore armor, and under the protection of some guards, began to patrol the city and check the layout in the city. Fancheng is very large, even if it is roughly walked, it will take an hour. In general, Fancheng's defense was relatively reasonable, and there were almost no flaws to speak of.
When Zhao Pu returned to the palace, he was a little tired, but more excited.
In the past, he had also participated in many battles, and he was more likely to watch the battle from the back of the big formation, and because of the perspective, he rarely saw this bloody side. And this time condescendingly, I clearly saw the bloody battle, life on the battlefield is so cheap, and the lives of thousands of people are lost in half a day!
Thinking back on these, Zhao Pu was dazed, frightened, excited, and a little overwhelmed.
At this time, Zhao Pu's body was a little tired, but his spirit was in a state of excitement, and he couldn't sleep.
"Your Majesty, eat some pastries!" At this time, Wang Wuyue took a plate of snacks and handed it over.
Zhao Pu reached out and took one and put it in his mouth, ate it in one bite and said, "Not bad, not bad!" ”
"Your Majesty, but you can't sleep?" Wang Wuyue said with a smile.
Zhao Pu nodded and said, "I'm a little excited!" ”
"Your Majesty, have a good rest, tomorrow the Jin army will attack the city again, how can you supervise the battle if you don't have the energy?" Wang Wuyue persuaded.
"It's just that I'm so excited that I can't sleep!" Zhao Pu said, "Like this, Xiangyang may hold on for half a year?" ”
"If it is like today, it is impossible for the Jin army to conquer Xiangyang!" Wang Wuyue said, "When it comes to geographical location, the mountains and rivers are dangerous, and Xiangyang has more advantages than Taiyuan and Bianliang. ”
"Ancient Taiyuan, since the beginning of the Song Dynasty burned down. The newly built Taiyuan City, the city is small and the people are outnumbered, which is not conducive to the division of feudal towns and towns, and it is not conducive to defending against foreign enemies, but even so; Taiyuan was besieged and lost outside aid, and it took a full year to break the city. And Bianliang is located in the heart of the Central Plains, in the plain area, once it is cut off, it will be difficult to defend the city. Under the long-term siege, Bianliang will be broken! However, Xiangyang is different, Xiangyang has been built by His Majesty for half a year, the city is strong, and the soldiers are elite. Relying on the mountains and rivers to be dangerous, it is impossible to break through! ”
Wang Wuyue seems. These are the most obvious truths. It is impossible for His Majesty the Emperor not to know. It's just that Zhao Pu was a little anxious and uneasy in his heart, and he lacked obvious self-confidence, so he asked her for confirmation again and again.
"Is that really the case?"
Zhao Pu seemed to be asking Wang Wuyue, and he seemed to be asking himself.
Wang Wuyue said: "Your Majesty, don't think nonsense. As long as our army does not make fatal mistakes, as long as it does not attack rashly. The Jin Army has no chance at all! ”
Zhao Pu nodded, and secretly said in his heart, he is not an old and spicy king, he is still a little immature. In normal times, in front of the ministers, you can disguise your self-confidence and pretend to win; But behind the scenes, his soul is extremely fragile, he lacks self-confidence, and he does not have the slightest command style.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late......"
Wang Wuyue's face was slightly red, and she wanted to say goodbye in her words.
Zhao Pu already understood in his heart, got up and left, and walked towards the bedroom.
Wang Wuyue Xianshu helped Xiao Cheng take off his armor and hang it on the wooden shelf, a faint flush could not help but climb on her fair face, with charm in her youth, and her eyes flashed with spring.
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much, as long as our army fights steadily and does not attack rashly, the Jin army will not have a chance. If you want to break Xiangyang, you must defeat the water division, but those landlubbers of the Jin army know how to fight water there. When Cao Cao's 800,000 troops went down to the south of the Yangtze River, there were at least still sailors; But the Jin army attacked Xiangyang, but there was no sailor, just relying on iron horses, wanting to sweep Xiangyang, this is impossible? Wang Wuyue gently unbuttoned her clothes and comforted.
"Hmmm! Let's hope so! Zhao Pu nodded.
In fact, after thinking about it for a long time, Zhao Pu couldn't find a trace of the possibility of Xiangyang City being broken. It is only a strategic advantage, and it may not be able to translate into an actual victory.
"Your Majesty, the night is long, let's not talk about this, do something meaningful!" Wang Wuyue said with a smile.
Zhao Pu nodded, his restless heart, his panicked heart, he needed something to divert his attention and soothe his mood.
Soon after, a gentle gasp sounded in the bedroom, and it was destined to be a long sleepless night.
………………
The next day, when Zhao Pu woke up, he looked at the beauties around him, and his mood suddenly improved.
Suddenly, Zhao Pu somewhat understood why the emperor likes to indulge in beauty and beauty, which is of course the supremacy of imperial power and has the capital to rob the beauties of the world; It is also a way to relieve tension and relieve depression.
Emperor is a high-risk profession, too challenging, the most difficult to experience the sense of success, but the most frustration, can "mix" a lifetime, it is good not to make mistakes, if you want to be a Ming Jun, a saint, the difficulty is not ordinary! There are only a dozen holy monarchs, while mediocre lords, faint monarchs, and tyrants abound, accounting for more than 90 percent.
The emperor is the freest man in the world, because there are no limits to his power; The emperor is also the most unfree person in the world, also because his power has no boundaries. Power is in the hands, you can't give it up easily, giving up is extremely miserable, thinking about the tragic fate of the emperor in history, it makes people shudder.
In short, the elites of the world coveted, weighed, spied on, and calculated the emperor day and night. And the emperor has to tremble, fight wits and courage with various elites, and he cannot relax for a minute.
The people of the world are the slaves of the emperor, and the emperor is the slave of power.
No way? It is better to be a slave to power than to be a dead man!
Long-term anxiety has made the emperors highly nervous all year round, and even rumors and plants and trees are all soldiers, showing some kind of schizophrenia, perverted behavior, absurd behavior, abound. During the Song Dynasty during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the former deposed emperor Liu Ziye suffered from sexual mania; After the deposed emperor Liu Yu suffered from murderous anxiety; Emperor Wu of the Northern Wei Dynasty suffered from anxiety and depression; Emperor Gao Yang of Northern Qi Wenxuan is a sexual flood disease.
And Gao Wei, the queen of the Northern Qi Dynasty, loved to be a beggar, Xiao Baojuan, the Marquis of the Eastern Dusk Emperor of Qi, caught mice, slept lazy, and drove the people, the Wanli Emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not go to court for 20 years, the Hongwu Emperor's indiscriminate killing of heroes, the Jiajing Emperor's paranoia, and the Apocalypse Emperor's indulgence in carpenter's work, etc., are all regarded as mental illness.
In short, the emperor is under too much pressure, all of them are psychologically sub-healthy, and if he is not careful, he may be a split personality.
If you are lucky, you will escape in the harem and numb yourself with wine; If you're unlucky, you'll kill the minister, commit incest, or do other perverted things.
And among the emperors, there is only one person who is mentally healthy, and that is Liu Bang, because he is a scoundrel, and a scoundrel will not produce mental illness.
"Lately, it seems to be a bit busy, and it seems that vaguely, I also have a mental illness that needs proper treatment - otherwise it will become schizophrenia, which is not good!" Zhao Pu secretly examined, reflecting on the experience during this time, secretly surprised, and unconsciously, he also fell into a state of psychological sub-health.
Fortunately, it was discovered early and did not cause a catastrophe.
At this time, Zhao Pu vaguely understood why the emperors of previous dynasties either believed in Taoism or Buddhism. No matter how brutal the tyrant is, how perverted the faint king, he treats Taoism and Buddhism with great respect.
Because there are no psychiatrists in this era, and the masters of Buddhism and Taoism are often the best psychiatrists.
Vaguely, they can cure the emperor's mental illness!
"Your Majesty, get up!" At this time, Wang Wuyue walked in.
"Get up!" Zhao Pu smiled heartily, "New day, new weather, today must be a good weather!" ”
"Your Majesty, you look really good when you laugh!" Wang Wuyue said, "But today is not a good weather, but a cloudy day." It could rain today! ”
"It's raining, but it's good! On a rainy day, the Jin army will not attack the city! ”
As he spoke, it was really crackling and raining outside, and the rain came quickly, but in an instant, it gradually changed from light rain to heavy rain, which instantly swept the whole world, and the water curtain swept the whole world.
"It's raining, it looks like I can rest for a day!" Zhao Pu said happily, "It seems that God still blesses the Great Song!" (To be continued......)
