Chapter 555: A long time must be together, a long time must be divided

"Monarch...... Parliament...... System? Hearing this unfamiliar new word, the aristocratic officials at the table inevitably whispered. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Okay, okay, don't make it look like you can understand it if you mutter it in private!" Lin Yafeng took a sip of century-old wine to moisten his throat, pretending to be unfathomable, "The so-called 'monarch' refers to your king and queen; Therefore, 'parliament' refers to a body whose status is no less than that of a king or queen, and the so-called 'system' refers to a system. ”

Su smiled and mended the knife, "'Making' or something, even if you don't explain it, they won't understand it as hemorrhoids." ”

"Long-winded!" Lin Yafeng glanced back at Su Xiao, and then asked arrogantly with his head held high: "Do you know why the general trend of history is always that if you are separated for a long time, you must be divided for a long time?" ”

"I don't know." Su Xiao honestly spread his hands and shrugged his head and shook his head, "The general trend of the world, a long time must be together, a long time must be divided", as long as you have taken history class, the history teacher will definitely pretend to use this sentence. But if you really want to look into it, in fact, even the vast majority of history teachers do not understand the reasons for these divisions and mergers.

"If you don't know, just listen honestly." Lin Yafeng shook his head and said: "The so-called 'long-term division must be united, long-term unity must be divided' is not TM's 'general trend of the world' at all, to put it mildly, this is what Luo Guanzhong pretended to be forced when he wrote "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". In fact, this state of division and integration does not belong to the world, but only to a certain part of history, to put it bluntly, it is the history of royal power. As long as the royal power declines, Shenma's 'long-term division must be united, long-term unity must be divided' is a joke! ”

Su Xiao rolled his eyes, and said in his heart that New China has only been established for a few years, can it be compared with the period of more than 2,000 years of royal rule? You kid will pretend to be a scholar when the country is not divided, and when the country is really torn apart, I think you are a joke that will pretend to be forced!

Su Xiao thought this completely out of mutual hatred with Lin Yafeng, and even if he really thought so, as a patriotic young man, he would never say such reactionary remarks, but said politely: "Please give advice to Brother Lin!" ”

"Brother Su is polite!" This kind of opportunity to steal the limelight of the protagonist, Su Xiao just doesn't ask, Lin Yafeng will definitely give advice, "During the reign of the king, the emperor ...... Eh, that is, the kings here, they are the top of the pyramid of power, and they can almost be called holding the world. Thinking about what the former king said to us yesterday, what was he most afraid of? ”

What happened yesterday, Su Xiao still feels vivid at the moment. Even though he could not recite the roar of Mandela VII in the dungeon word for word, he remembered the gist of that passage vividly:

You can only see the power, the riches, and the crown of supreme glory that the king has, and do you know what kind of pressure I face every day? For the sake of the stability of the country, I must guard against this merchant from being rich and rivaling the country every day, and prevent that army from besieging the city and forcing the palace! But if a merchant is rich, I will definitely annex his property; If a certain general is supported by the audience, I will definitely put him on death row! This is the scheme, this is the royal way! (Originally, I was going to repeat it in Su Xiao's tone, but I felt that the previous paragraph was quite profound, so I modified it slightly and pasted it over, please don't blame the reader.) )

"If you remember, it's easy to understand the divisions and combinations." Lin Yafeng said as he set up a sand table with the snacks on the table, "Because the king has supreme power, what he fears most is to be deprived of this power. The world is so big, even Genghis Khan, who dominates the Eurasian continent, can't he dominate the world? As long as the country has borders, there will be border troubles; As long as the country has border troubles, there will definitely be generals who will lead troops to garrison the frontier; As long as there are people with heavy troops, how can there be an emperor who is not afraid that they will return to the city one day under the banner of 'King Qin' to capture the king? You must know that the change of emperor loses not only supreme power, as long as it involves usurpation in Chinese history, at least 9.5 of the 10 emperors of the previous dynasty have to die......"

Lin Yafeng's meaning, Su Xiao understood, but those aristocratic officials who didn't understand humor didn't understand. As soon as he heard that half of the dead could still die, someone immediately raised his hand and asked: "Respected brave, dare to ask how these 0.5 people died?" ”

Lin Yafeng's brain was also fast, and he immediately changed his words, "9 out of 10 emperors have to die, and one is tortured so much that he can't survive, can't die, die and live, and is half dead!" ”

"Hiss......" Hearing such vicious words, even the generals led by Adam Black had goosebumps floating under their armor.

Seeing this, Lin Yafeng finally said with satisfaction: "In order to keep the country that only belongs to their own family in the hearts of Zhang San, Li Siwang and Wu, of course, it is more to keep their own throne, there are two ways to deal with this hidden danger, and it will also create two consequences." ”

"First." Lin Yafeng took great pains to eat a cookie, and then said: "Of course, let those border generals lead their troops to fight, drive out the Tartars, and revitalize China!" But this is exactly what I said just now, it's not that those generals are disloyal, it's that the soldiers are fighting in the wilderness, and they can't take it! ”

"Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin is the most typical example, after winning the battle, he slept and opened his eyes in a yellow robe. Do you think he's smug when he nods his head in acquiescence? Don't make a fuss, does he dare to shake his head and deny it? Believe it or not, as long as he dares to say that he doesn't want to be this emperor, the soldiers under him will definitely jump up and chop him immediately, and change someone to continue the yellow robe! It doesn't matter who becomes the emperor, the important thing is that as long as someone becomes the emperor, they are the founding fathers! This point is the same for you and me, if there is a chance to soar, who wants to be cannon fodder? ”

"That's got it, right?" Seeing that everyone nodded in confusion, Lin Yafeng stuffed the second cookie into his mouth again, "Second, do the opposite, that is, weaken the strength of the border army as much as possible." There are many such practices, such as sending civil officials to supervise the army, and then changing the generals who defend the city from time to time, etc., etc., etc., the emperor is a thief! But the result of this behavior is even more obvious, the army has no combat power, the strong enemy breaks in, and the country can't be divided if it wants to! So you see that many dynasties in Chinese history will have a 'Southern Dynasty', in fact, the emperor Lao Tzu can't withstand the invasion from the north and hides from the south. ”

Lin Yafeng's statement is relatively general, and the real history is by no means such a simple two sentences that can be explained clearly. But after listening to his words, Su Xiao really vaguely understood the reason behind "a long time must be together, a long time must be separated", so he could only ask in a daze: "Isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?" ”

"Does it seem like a sprinkle?" Lin Yafeng pushed Su Xiao's head, "Didn't I say it, that is a common problem in the historical period of royal rule, as long as the royal power system is changed, the power model of the pyramid will completely collapse!" ”

Su Xiao is worthy of being a young man in the new era who has received nine years of compulsory education, and quickly understood what Lin Yafeng meant, "I understand, as long as there is no individual with the most extreme power like the king, there will be no such thing as someone who will harm the country in order to maintain his power!" On the other hand, if you can't get the most extreme power by killing so-and-so, there will naturally be no usurpation by force! ”

"Yes, yes, so teachable, you're so much smarter than those old stubborns!" Lin Yafeng nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Qin Mandela, who was a little distracted, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "And this is the necessity of the parliamentary system!" ”
