The turmoil on the side of Brahmana has finally settled, and the establishment of the Gara Khanate, composed of six major tribes, is destined to subvert the entire pattern of Brahmana, and as the county king's mansion that manipulates all this behind the scenes, it can be regarded as a complete foothold in Huangsha County.

They conspired over there and took turns to play, playing with the Rakshasa people in the palm of their hands, extremely chic, and the other parties were not idle, at the same time, far away in the northeast, Wei Guo, recently happened several major events that shocked the whole country.

The first thing that bore the brunt of was that the sect leader of the emerging Huangtian Sect that originally belonged to Lingnan County was actually favored by Emperor Wei, who was far away in the capital of Weizhou, and even sent a special envoy to summon him to the capital for an audience.

This Lingnan County and its surrounding two counties were originally one of the costs paid by the Jin Kingdom, which was facing the danger of annihilation, in exchange for the defense of the country, which had been a vassal for a hundred years, to send troops together to block the offensive of the Liang Kingdom.

The people of the three counties were suddenly ceded out, just like a child who was abandoned by his mother, and there were naturally a lot of dissatisfaction and resentment in his heart, and the people of the three counties have always been a faction of their own, even if they have been assigned to Weiguo by the original owner in name and have become the people of the Jin State, but the resistance of the people of these three counties, whether it is overt or secretly, has never stopped, which has also caused the three counties to have been a headache for Weiguo.

Kill, can't kill, or can't kill it cleanly, but if you don't care, doesn't that mean that you have given back the land of these three counties for nothing?

Even being sent by the imperial court to serve in the three counties was regarded by the officials of the defense of the country as a drudgery second only to being directly ordered by the emperor to raid the family and exterminate the clan, which was more bitter than derogatory, and it may be more appropriate to describe it with the word "exile".

But anyone who goes there to be an official, let alone a hopeless career, may even return to his hometown alive is a luxury that can only exist in a dream.

But now it is different, the spread speed of the Yellow Heaven Sect in the three counties of Lingnan and other counties is far faster than ordinary people imagine, but in just a few months, relying on the word of mouth of the disciples and the movement of missionaries in the church, the Yellow Heaven Sect has already covered the three counties, and most of the people in the county have converted to this sudden rise of the Yellow Heaven Sect.

The chaos of the entire three counties, which was originally like the gathering of bandits in the mountains, has also been cleared, and now it can even be said that it is more harmonious than the rest of the country, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and are kind to others, reciting the canons and teachings of the Huangtian Sect in their own houses or in the place where the church is located all day long, and there is no longer the impulsive act of fighting and killing the court officials at every turn.

With the help of His Majesty the Emperor and the imperial court, the Huangtianjiao also quickly became a state religion with influence radiating the entire country in one fell swoop.

The Yellow Heaven Sect claims to believe in the only true God, that is, the father of all beings, the Lord of creation, the father who is far away in the eternal kingdom of heaven, and its leader claims to be the son of the father God, and he is sent down to earth with the order of the father to educate all sentient beings, and those who believe in religion can avoid all evil, and after death, they can ascend to heaven and enjoy eternal bliss, and those who do not believe in religion and slander the religion will inevitably go to hell and perish forever.

On the one hand, he lured him to profit, and on the other hand, he intimidated and threatened, and with the deliberate help of the imperial court, he naturally gained a large number of believers in a short period of time.

They even played the slogan of "divine authority of the king", the position of emperor must be given by the father, if it is not given by the father, it is all false.

Huang Tianjiao believes in the Wei royal family as the lord of the mandate of heaven, saying that the current Wei Emperor is also the son of the father, and Emperor Wei even called the Huang Tianjiao leader "royal brother" in public.

After that, although His Majesty the Emperor did not make it clear to the courtiers at the court meeting, he still expressed his desire to re-establish the crown prince to many ministers in private.

At this moment, some people in the entire government and the opposition were panicked, and the rumors were loud, but fortunately, His Majesty never mentioned it on a formal occasion, and this matter is so for the time being.

--------------------------------

On this day, on the outskirts of the capital of the country, there was a small mountain villa hidden in the mountains and forests.

It is claimed to belong to a wealthy gentry in the capital, and the surrounding area is all people's private land.

It is normal for wealthy families to build mansions everywhere, and there are many family guards here who guard them all day long, so there are few people who come to touch the mold on weekdays.

Duanmu Shuofeng, who had just quietly rushed over from Qilian City, naturally sat on the main seat.

The person standing below was none other than Wei Ping, who had been lurking beside the second prince Duanmu Huayun.

The latter bowed his head and stood respectfully at the bottom, and there was no one else in the whole hall except him.

Duanmu Shuofeng looked down at the people below, the expression on his face was as cold as frost, and a murderous aura like freezing everything in the cold winter wax moon echoed throughout the hall, making people can't help but feel chills.

He kept looking at the people below, frowning slightly, as if he was thinking, and after a while, he finally said coldly: "Wei Ping, explain and explain." ”

Wei Ping at the bottom seemed to be stared at for a long time by a peerless beast, as a prey, he could only curl up as much as possible, put his posture low, hoping that the other party would let him go, and he had no power to resist, that kind of terrible feeling, he didn't want to experience it a second time.

When Duanmu Shuofeng finally spoke, he seized the opportunity and breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that if it weren't for the fact that he had really made a lot of contributions over the years, he might not even have a chance to explain with Duanmu Shuofeng's temperament, and what he was most afraid of was this.

This kind of person who wants to follow the emperor's path wants to control everything in his hands, and they will never allow their subordinates to act without listening to their orders and reporting to them in advance.

They allow their men to be stupid, but they are not allowed to be clever.

When Wei Ping heard this, he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly stepped forward and replied in a proper manner: "Prince, the reason why his subordinates are doing this is because of both selfishness and righteousness!"

Duanmu Shuofeng's originally cold face suddenly showed a hint of interest, and he immediately asked, "Oh? Then I really want to hear what your selfishness and righteousness are." ”

If the ability of his subordinates can exceed the mistakes he has made, then he doesn't mind letting them go after the beating, he just has too much control, but he is not intolerant.

Wei Ping understands that if he can't say it, his life will be explained here.

He took a deep breath, raised his head, and his eyes were sharp, changing the lowly and humble feeling of being a little person who had always been willing to play a supporting role and bow his head and lower his eyebrows, and his face suddenly bloomed with a wild aura.

Such a scene, on the contrary, is more to Duanmu Shuofeng's appetite, and he can't help but think a little more highly of this person at the moment.

At the beginning, he let this person lurk in the capital as a secret son, and secretly regulate the situation in the capital for him who was far away in Qilian Mountain, in fact, he took a fancy to this person's ability and his innate temperament, and it was difficult for people to doubt his calm temperament, but he never thought that this person would have such a wild side.

He dared to stretch out his claws in front of Duanmu Shuofeng, and he admired it very much.

Wei Ping once again bowed his hand to him, even if he wanted to do a madman's act, in front of Duanmu Shuofeng, he had to do enough etiquette first, and then said: "Prince, the selfishness of his subordinates is actually very simple, because his subordinates realize their own ability, far more than being a disgraceful role in the capital, this moment coincides with troubled times, the eldest husband should fight for a name in history, glorify the ancestors, this time he made his own opinion, it is indeed the fault of his subordinates, no matter how the prince wants to punish his subordinates, his subordinates are willing to be punished!"

As he spoke, he knelt down directly, and slammed his head on the ground three times towards Duanmu Shuofeng on the main seat.

When he got back to his feet, his body shook gently twice, and his forehead was covered with blood because of the force.

However, Duanmu Shuofeng just sat on the stage, looking at all this happening below with cold eyes, like a god looking at the world, without joy or sorrow.

Wei Ping was not discouraged, and said again: "I hope that the prince can give his subordinates a chance to make up for their merits, and in the future, he can go to Qilian Mountain to give advice for the prince, even if it is for the prince's liver and brain, he will not hesitate!

After saying this, the killing intent in Duanmu Shuofeng's heart that was originally for Wei Ping's unauthorized actions had already dissipated by more than half.

The most unbearable thing for him is that his subordinates act without asking for instructions in advance, which in his opinion is a capital crime, even if it is forgotten this time for various reasons, and the next time he is caught, he must liquidate it to set an example.

Because if his subordinates do not listen to him and act on their own, it means that they have their own desires and want to get out of his control, so he will never be indifferent.

But like Wei Ping, who dares to say his own goals and desires, whether it is noble or inferior, whether it is for the sake of the marquis and the prime minister, the name will go down in history, or for the sake of wives and concubines, swaggering through the market, in short, their desires are on the bright side, which means that they are still under their own control, as long as they can satisfy the desires in each other's hearts and give each other what they want, then they will never rebel.

So even if Wei Ping commits such a wrong thing, but with a big husband who should make contributions, he can barely say it, he can tolerate the other party, and dare to recommend himself in front of him, he still has some real skills, if he dies like this, it is a pity.

What's more, he is above everything and the way of the emperor who is above everything and controls the common people with his own heart, and the emperor's art is nothing more than the two words of checks and balances, only when his subordinates are restraining each other, the party is strife, and he is trying to overwhelm the other party, his position as the emperor can sit firmly and sit firmly, if his subordinates are dominant, and even covet him, then his position as the emperor may not be able to sit firmly again.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say why the former Jin Emperor Shangguan Ming let the great Sikong Cai Jing kill the former Great Sima, in addition to his own mediocrity and incompetence, more is still born in the imperial family must learn to balance the courtiers, which is why the new Great Sima Chen Xiehu obviously has a solid foundation, but he will sit so steadily, this is also for checks and balances, all the truth, it is so simple.

If there are no checks and balances, his subordinates will empty the Son of Heaven, and the so-called emperor is an empty shell.

Support one side, suppress the other party, after one party falls, a new party will immediately stand up, not afraid of the upstarts messing around, anyway, after something that cannot be suppressed, just use them to calm the resentment of all parties, as long as the throne under their ass can be secured, it is enough.

But now, the forces that belong to Wu Heng seem to be a little too big, and he is a strategist, in terms of playing tricks, it is difficult for military generals to compete with him, whether it is Wei Chi Dun who speaks out of Wei Chi's family, or Xie Houyin, a new star who is already inclined to Wu Heng, it is difficult to balance him, and now if he has the opportunity, he doesn't mind taking advantage of the situation to help this Wei Ping up, provided that he has this ability.

So Duanmu Shuofeng just lightly spit out three words: "Go on." ”

When Wei Ping heard this, he suddenly felt relieved.

He was right!

Duanmu Shuofeng, if you want to do things in front of him, your posture should be low when it should be low, and high when it should be high, so that you can be appreciated and reused by him, and at the same time, you will not be abandoned by him like garbage.

Sometimes, danger is opportunity.

"As for righteousness, the subordinates have two points to say, first, this Huang Tianjiao has been deeply rooted in the three counties of Lingnan, it is difficult to eradicate, if you want to forcibly ban it, I am afraid of chaos, not to mention that the subordinates have carefully studied their teachings, and the subordinates feel that letting them sit big will not only not have any problems, but will help, even if they sit big, it will be difficult to threaten the prince, on the contrary, with their help, the prince you are more able to become famous and famous, and capture Daliang, even if it is a stalemate for several years, the people will not complain!"

These words are a bit too straightforward.

Duanmu Shuofeng narrowed his eyes, radiating a dangerous light like a tiger looking at its prey, looking at the other party's meaning, whether he already knew, or whether he had figured out that he wanted to take the initiative to attack Liangguo.

But these are not important, the important thing is that if it can really be as he said, it will really help him solve a big problem.

It's important that the teacher is famous.

The sage said, "Those who have attained the Tao will have much help, and those who have lost the Tao will have little help."

If the division is unknown, the people will have doubts about the reason for the war, and the morale of the army will be shaken after a stalemate or a defeat.

It is difficult for these people to give their lives for the ideals of Duanmu Shuofeng, but if they give a good name to this crusade, it will be easy to stabilize the morale of the army at a critical time.

Wei Ping saw that Duanmu Shuofeng had a calm face and didn't speak, so he immediately added: "Prince, my subordinates want to say a big disrespectful word, and ask the prince to forgive me." ”

Duanmu Shuofeng raised his head, looked down, and said in a calm tone: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Wei Ping took a step forward and plucked up the courage to say, "You have been in this position of the crown prince for too long!"

Duanmu Shuofeng's eyes froze, Huo Ran stood up, and a murderous aura filled the entire hall
