"All soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty should keep in mind that there are three major disciplines and eight points of attention. First, all actions should be commanded and marched in unison in order to achieve victory. Second, I don't take a needle and thread from the people, and the people support and like me. Third, all seizures should be returned to the public, and efforts should be made to lighten the burden of the people......"

Wen Tianxiang, the new secretary of the Ministry of Rites of the Great Song Dynasty, stood at the door of the house with his hands behind his back, and couldn't help frowning when he listened to the soldiers on the playground singing the plagiarism expert Zhao Jiaren's "Three Disciplines and Eight Attention Songs".

After a while, the singing stopped, and the troops lined up in a neat queue to go to lunch. Zhao Jiaren, who came back from running errands, invited Wen Tianxiang to have dinner with him, and the two walked out of the office door, Wen Tian asked as he walked: "Zhao Xianggong, why do you want to teach soldiers to sing such songs?" ”

Finally able to build an army according to his own philosophy, Zhao Jiaren replied very refreshingly, "Martial arts, the dry city of the country." The army must be the children of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and the soldiers must have a higher status and morality than the ordinary people, and the people must also firmly believe that the army should have higher morality. What is sung in this song is just a must-do. ”

After listening to the explanation, Wen Tianxiang's brows were still furrowed, and his voice was full of puzzlement, "Zhao Xianggong, of course I know that military law is ruthless. What I don't understand is why you add an explanation to the end? ”

"Huh?" This time it was Zhao Jiaren's turn to not understand what Wen Tianxiang meant, and blinked his eyes a few times, Zhao Jiaren asked, "What does it mean to add an explanation?" ”

Wen Tianxiang said seriously: "In the song, all seizures must be returned to the public, and strive to reduce the burden of the people." Doesn't this public singing make everyone think that we are actually short of food and money? ”

"Is it difficult that we are not short of money and food?" Zhao Jiaren asked incomprehensibly.

Entering a-for-tat situation, Wen Tianxiang couldn't help but stop and said with sincerity from the bottom of his heart: "It's because of the lack that I can't tell them." Let everyone know that we are short of money and food, and that will be the mood of the army. If there is no heavy reward, how can anyone fight to the death. ”

Zhao Jiaren had a good impression of Wen Tianxiang, but Wen Tianxiang's words made Zhao Jiaren very unhappy, and he even felt that he was offended. also stopped, Zhao Jiaren also said from the heart: "It's too much to underestimate the people to talk about it." In this world, only scholars know that the truth is not true? The people do not have a good life on weekdays, and they themselves lack food and clothing, so don't they know that we are also short of money and food? If there are frozen bones on the stinky road of Zhumen's wine and meat, what will the people think? The people should rise up and bring us down! ”

was robbed by Zhao Jiaren like this, Wen Tianxiang was also angry, and he said loudly: "Zhao Zhizhou, it's not right for you to say that." What do you mean to rise up and bring us down? The people are so kingless and fatherless? ”

Zhao Jiaren stared at Wen Tianxiang coldly, his voice was cold, "The king regards the minister as a sibling, and the minister regards the king as a heart; The monarch regards the minister as a dog and a horse, and the minister regards the monarch as a countryman; The king regards his ministers as mustard, and the ministers regard him as an enemy. It will only make the people die, why should the people do it for you? The Great Song Dynasty has been raising scholars for 300 years, and today the national disaster is at the head, how many scholars have become the Great Song Dynasty to fight to the death? Look at these people who joined the army, they are not scholars, they are ordinary people. On weekdays, he worked hard to earn a living, and he had to pay taxes and food to the imperial court. Now that China is in trouble, they have stepped forward again. The soldiers are in danger, and they may not be able to get off the battlefield. At this time, he didn't even dare to tell them the truth, and he relied on deception to pull them into battle, is this a human thing? ”

As he spoke, Zhao Jiaren's voice became more and more excited, and at the end he was about to roar. After saying this, Zhao Jiaren immediately felt that it was inappropriate for him to be so excited. However, since he expressed his chest and vented his anger, Zhao Jiaren turned around and continued to walk towards the cafeteria. He felt that he was too right not to let Wen Tianxiang be the right prime minister, a blind BB of the Ministry of Rites was still within the range of what he could bear, and if a right prime minister acted in the way of the Great Song Dynasty in the past, Zhao Jiaren couldn't accept it at all.

Eating angrily, Zhao Jiaren turned his head and saw that Wen Tianxiang also walked into the cafeteria with a black face and began to line up to eat. Although he didn't want to see Wen Tianxiang because of Fang Cai's anger in his heart, Zhao Jiaren had a relatively large agreement with Wen Tianxiang's belly. The kind of person who walks away when there is a quarrel has no future, and people have to endure many things, especially to learn to face themselves.

Beat the meal, ate the meal. Wen Tianxiang sat down in front of Zhao Jiaren frankly, "Zhao Xianggong, you and I have eaten enough now, even if we quarrel, we have the courage to fight for a longer time." I have just thought about what you said, and some of them are correct, and the shamelessness of the scholars is a national shame. These civilians are a hundred times better than the unscrupulous men and doctors who have defected to the enemy. But the country is run by scholars, and I don't think it's right for you to belittle scholars so much. ”

Hearing Wen Tianxiang say, 'When you are full, you have the strength to quarrel', Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but laugh. After listening to the latter words, Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but praise in his heart, Wen Tianxiang This is the key to discovering the problem. When it came to such a situation, Zhao Jiaren also replied bluntly: "I don't go to summon scholars to come to Fujian now because they are useless. They can't say they don't do their best, but that's all they can do. Use them again, and the country will surely perish. ”

Wen Tianxiang asked Zhao Jiaren with a straight face, "Why are scholars useless?" ”

In this kind of thing that has been considered clearly, Zhao Jiaren is very calm, "First, any normal person will do his best when dealing with things. Do you think that if you can defeat the Mongols, or if Jia Yidao can defeat the Mongols, will you not do it? You come and tell me. ”

Wen Tianxiang was stunned for a moment, and he said hesitantly: "If I can do it, I will naturally do my best." As for Jia Rudao, it's hard for him to say. ”

"You say this because you think Jia Rudao is better than you?" Zhao Jiaren asked.

After listening to Zhao Jiaren's more positive evaluation of Jia Nidao, Wen Tianxiang, who had always opposed Jia Nidao, said angrily: "How come! How could that traitor be ...... than me" However, looking at Zhao Jiaren looking at himself calmly, Wen Tianxiang suddenly found that he was surrounded by Zhao Jiaren. He hurriedly retorted: "I don't think Jia Yidao is more capable than me. ”

"That means you think that Jia Rudao, like you, is actually incapable of defeating the Mongols?" Zhao Jiaren continued to tighten his logic, trying to get Wen Tianxiang to admit the reality.

Although Wen Tianxiang's face became more and more ugly, he said calmly: "Zhao Xianggong, what do you mean by raising Jia Yidao like this?" ”

Zhao Jiaren didn't speak, he drew the previous logical chain first. Then he added a clause at the end, 'The soldiers who are not capable of defeating the Mongol army continue to command the battle'. When Wen Tianxiang saw this, although he wanted to say something, he couldn't say it anymore.

"Brother Wen, you are already a pretty good one of the people I have met. In terms of morality and talent, they are not comparable to ordinary scholars. Even you look down on these people who are fighting for the country now, and those scholars can be better than you after they come? Shall I let them come and cause trouble for me now? Zhao Jiaren made a concluding speech.
