Chapter 38: In the seventh year of Light and Harmony, the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
After apprenticeship with Cai Yong, Emperor Qin meditated and cultivated, and he lived in Cai Yong's mansion.
Emperor Qin knew in his heart that this was an opportunity, and only by enriching himself could he go further in the future.
This is also in every novel, as well as in the TV series, the male protagonist is not a dick in the simple sense, because such a person can't go far at all.
Only those who have enough background can achieve great achievements.
……
Because of this, Emperor Qin was hungry for books, and because Cai Yong was an orthodox Confucian, Emperor Qin not only learned [Han Feizi] and various art of war, but also learned the six arts of a gentleman.
Etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics.
This is a skill that a scholar must master in this era, and Emperor Qin was a little curious about all this, although reading was boring, he persevered.
In six years, he rummaged through Cai Yong's book collection, and with his super memory, the original was imprinted in his mind.
……
"Emperor Qin, as you said, the Taiping Dao broke out, and the momentum was extremely huge for a while!"
Looking at Emperor Qin, who was still a young man after six years, Cai Yong frowned, and his heart was indeed turbulent, and he couldn't calm down for a while.
Because six years ago, Emperor Qin criticized today's situation, and now this incident has been verified and is exactly what Emperor Qin said.
Cai Yong was shocked in his heart, his face was not obvious, he sighed at Emperor Qin, and said: "Zhang Jiao founded the Taiping Dao, won the hearts of the people in a religious way, and established his prestige among the poor peasants, with hundreds of thousands of believers. ”
"Zhang Jiao used his prestige among the people to divide the believers in the eight prefectures of Qing, Xu, You, Hebei, Jing, Yang, Yan, and Henan into 36 parties."
"There are more than 10,000 people in the big square, and 6,000 or 7,000 people in the small side; Each side has a commander and is under his unified command! ”
Speaking of this, Cai Yong's face was sad and there was a sense of discouragement. As an orthodox Confucian, Cai Yong's loyalty to Liu Han is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
The thought flickered in his heart, Emperor Qin took a deep look at Cai Yong, and after half a sound, he sighed faintly and said, "Teacher, the disciple already knows about the Taiping Dao riots. ”
"Zhang Jiao claimed to be the general of Tiangong, and Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were the general of the earth and the general of the people respectively in the area of Julu in Jizhou."
"Taiping Dao burned down the official mansion, killed the officials, looted everywhere, and in just one month, there were wars in 28 counties in seven states across the country!"
Speaking of this, Emperor Qin shook his head at Cai Yong and continued, "The Taiping Dao army is like a broken bamboo, the state and county are lost, and the officials have fled, shaking the imperial court, presumably the imperial court will immediately order a rebellion." ”
That being said, Emperor Qin knew in his heart that in the face of this long-planned rebellion of Taiping Dao, the imperial court was too slow to react.
It stands to reason that with the current strength of the Han Dynasty, it is completely possible to annihilate the core force of Taiping Dao in one fell swoop before the rebellion occurs.
"Emperor Qin, in your opinion, is this world overturned?" Cai Yong's face was pale, and his whole person was like a frosted eggplant.
"The world is the world of the people of the world, the current political situation is unstable, the dictatorship of foreign relatives, the dictatorship of eunuchs, the war against Xiqiang lasted for decades, the cost was huge, and the military service was heavy."
"In addition, the phenomenon of land annexation is serious, so that the people of the world are not able to make a living, and the court is corrupt, the eunuchs and relatives are constantly fighting, and the country is getting weaker and weaker."
"Now that there is a national drought, the grains are not collected and the taxes are not reduced, and the poor peasants who are desperate can do nothing but rise up!"
Hearing Emperor Qin's emotion, Cai Yong's body trembled and asked tremblingly, "You mean that the Han Dynasty will be replaced by this group of mobs?" ”
"Teacher, at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was just a small pavilion chief, and for the Great Qin Empire, they were also a mob."
Emperor Qin stared at him, was silent for a while, and said: "It doesn't matter if the mob is not a mob, what really matters is where this world should go!" ”
At this moment, Emperor Qin explained to Cai Yong word by word, if it weren't for the bad system he had, Emperor Qin would definitely not have dealt with the Confucians.
It's like an old mother, with a mouth and a three-inch tongue, it's as annoying as it is.
"Taiping Dao broke out, there is no talent like Xiao He, Han Xin, and Zhang Liang, it seems that the thunder is rolling and the momentum is huge, but it is impossible to last."
"But after that, if the response is not good, it is very likely that there will be chaos of the princes, and at that time, it will be a disaster on the Central Plains."
"Hoo ......"
With a long breath, Cai Yong was silent for a long time before he raised his head to Emperor Qin and said, "The court is deaf, and the ten permanent servants are in turmoil, and I am afraid that the chaos of the princes will also happen." ”
"Now your reputation shocks the world, the word Emperor Qin, like thunder, is even more useful than the word emperor, and people all over the world call you a god walking in the world."
Cai Yong's eyes flickered, and he said to Emperor Qin: "In the face of such a troubled world, don't you have too many ideas?" ”
Cai Yong knows that how great the ability is, how much responsibility there is, with the strength and ability shown by Emperor Qin, as long as he comes out and ascends to the heights, it is easy to recast the Han Dynasty.
As long as Emperor Qin ascends to the heights at this moment, he will inevitably gather followers, and when the time comes, with Emperor Qin's strong appeal, it will be enough to crush Zhang Jiao and others.
Therefore, Cai Yong will have such a question!
"Heaven and earth catastrophe, this is fate!"
Emperor Qin understood what Cai Yong was thinking, but he knew even more that millions of people had no food to eat, which was an essential problem.
Although he successfully condensed the Dou Qi Xuan, and even opened up the martial artist dantian, the current Emperor Qin is only the strength of the Great Dou Master, which is not enough to reverse the general trend of the world.
Unless someone supports a huge amount of food, only in this way, coupled with Emperor Qin's overwhelming force, can he intervene with absolute strength to disintegrate this Taiping Dao riot.
But Emperor Qin knew in his heart that in the entire Central Plains, except for the imperial court, no one had such a large amount of grain and grass.
Moreover, when he came to the Three Kingdoms Plane, it was a trip to brush up the ranks, so Emperor Qin didn't want to really put down this rebellion.
After all, only by being familiar with the historical plot can Emperor Qin grasp the absolute opportunity.
"Teacher, even if I make a move and reverse the general trend of the world, when the time comes, where should I and Emperor Han go?"
Emperor Qin's words stopped Cai Yong. As long as Emperor Qin makes a move, his prestige will inevitably be unparalleled in the world, and he will inevitably become a thorn in Liu Hong's side when the time comes.
In this way, it is equivalent to forcing Emperor Qin to embark on the road of no return, and the thought flickered in his heart, Cai Yong shook his head, very helpless, and said.
"It seems that the teacher thinks too simply, this world is complicated!"
