Chapter 0324 Dogs That Can Bite Don't Bark

"The queen mother is angry."

"If the retainer doesn't notice it for a while, the wrong thing will ······"

followed the old lady Lu Pheasant to the apse of Changxin Palace, and without waiting for Lu Pheasant to sit on the royal couch, Liu Ying knelt down and made her attitude clear.

- Short to admit, stand firm after being beaten!

Lu Ying was not very angry about the mistakes Liu Ying made today, at most he could only be regarded as having some 'new discoveries'; seeing Liu Ying's attitude of 'taking the initiative to admit his mistakes' so sensibly, Lu Pheasant's face immediately appeared with a shallow smile.

"Even if you know that you are wrong, you might as well talk about it, what is wrong?"

With an understatement, Lu Pheasant leaned lazily on the couch and waited quietly for Liu Ying's reply.

And about five steps in front of Lu Pheasant, Liu Ying, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but fall into a burst of thought.

Liu Ying's performance in today's court meeting, strictly speaking, cannot be regarded as any 'big mistake'.

First of all, on the premise of not getting accurate information, Liu Ying subjectively judged that 'Wei Man was jumping and there were Huns as backers';

Secondly, Liu Ying was also able to remain calm enough about the sinister intentions of the Huns to drive Wei Manchu to seize the power of Jizi Korea and provoke the Han family, and gave a reasonable disposal plan: the Han family strongly condemned the Huns' interference in the internal affairs of the Han Dynasty!

As for summoning the envoys of the Manchu Dynasty to Chang'an, as well as the performance in the reception process, Liu Ying can be described as impeccable.

But I don't know if it's because the crown is about to be crowned, so that Liu Ying has some inexplicable slackness in her heart, so that she has the 'small mistake' she made today······

"The Queen Mother."

"Today's court discussion, the son only uses the 'Han room strategy' to solve the Han family's predicament today, and the way to solve the predicament, is like an outsider who is a 'bystander'."

"Ran Er did not show it to the court minister in front of the Son of Heaven, nor did he explicitly tell the hundred officials: In North Korea, what Liu Han wants and what the Son of Heaven wants."

"Today, if it weren't for the queen mother, I am afraid that the child would make a mistake once he made a mistake, and in the future, he should suffer for a long time today's loss······"

With a slightly ashamed expression, Liu Ying couldn't help lowering her head slightly, secretly annoyed.

This is the 'small mistake' that Liu Ying made today.

- Position.

In today's court discussions, Liu Ying looks at and analyzes the North Korean problem almost entirely as a bystander, or from the perspective of God;

Regarding the relationship and demands of the three parties of Wei Manchu Korea, the Xiongnu, and the central government of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ying almost made a very objective analysis and gave a response plan.

But in this process, Liu Ying only took into account the position of the 'Han people', but did not remember that the position he should hold the most was the Han Tianzi!

In the process of looking at the whole problem, Liu Ying only thought of 'what to do to maximize the interests of the Han family', but did not think of 'what kind of attitude should be held by a feudal king'.

Take this time, Wei Man's envoy to Chang'an as an example.

On the Korean Peninsula, the descendants of the Mizi Xuyu ruled the northern half of the Minzi Joseon, and the 'Jin Kingdom', consisting of Mahan, Chenhan, and Benhan, ruled the southern half together.

Outside the island, there are the only two big men in the known world, the Liu Han Dynasty of China, and the Xiongnu regime of the Steppe Clan, which are at loggerheads over the differences between 'civilization and barbarism'.

The inside and outside of the island are like two completely parallel planes, slightly intersecting with each other, but they have nothing to do with each other.

And this balance was broken by Wei Man, who crossed the plane.

- Wei Man, who originally belonged to Hanchen, led the remnants of his army to escape to the Korean Peninsula after the late lord Zang Di was killed for rebellion, and was taken in by the Korean monarch Ji Zhun of Jizi;

Then, Wei Man, driven by the Huns, most likely launched a palace rebellion to seize the Jizi Joseon regime, and took advantage of the situation to annex five tribes including Jinban and Goguryeo, and immediately focused on the southern half of the Korean Peninsula, namely the three kingdoms of Jinhan, Mahan, and Benhan.

Outside the island, the Huns were allegiance to a new tribe called 'Wei Joseon', and tried to use Wei Man's pawn to draw the attention of the Han family to the Korean Peninsula.

As a new regime, the Han dynasty was in ruins in the country, and the people were determined, which was a weak period when the whole country was eager for peaceful development.

Under such circumstances, the wisest thing for the Han family was obviously to ignore Wei Manchu's provocation and stick to the Great Wall in the north to avoid being plundered by the Huns.

And the crux of the matter is precisely this.

——In today's situation, responding to all changes with the same and ignoring the provocations of Wei Man (Huns) is the attitude that every Han person whose brain has not entered the water should have;

But the 'every Han person' here absolutely and absolutely does not include Liu Hantianzi!

What is the Son of Heaven?

"Shangshu, Zhoushu, Hongfan" cloud: The Son of Heaven is the parent of the people, thinking that he is the king of the world!

According to today's universal values, all the thousands of people in the world are the people of the Son of Heaven!

As the 'parent' of the whole world, what attitude should the Son of Heaven have in the face of foreign provocations?

This is like the next generation: when children and grandchildren are bullied by other people's bear children, what kind of attitude should parents show?

- your mother!

This is what every parent whose brain has not entered the water should show!

As for what 'children are still young and ignorant' and 'look at problems calmly', that is what bystanders should talk about;

As the parties concerned, whether it is the parents of later generations, or Liu Ying, the son of heaven who is now the father and mother of the whole world, they only need to vent all their anger without reservation!

Just like the intoxicating famous saying of later generations: Forgive him is God's business; And what I'm going to do is send him to God.

To put it bluntly: the Xiongnu's remote control guard provoked the Han family, in a sense, there is no essential difference between the Xiongnu and the Xiongnu directly sending envoys to extort the Han family.

Since there is no difference, the posture that Liu Ying should show should be the same as facing the Huns' envoy and asking for peace again;

- The princess should be sent back, but it can't be sent by Liu Ying!

The most ideal solution is undoubtedly the same as last year, when the Huns sent an envoy to humiliate the Empress Dowager Lu Pheasant: Liu Ying scolded the Hun envoy to save the face of the Han family to the greatest extent;

After that, several important ministers of the court came forward in private, explaining that 'Our Majesty is still young, and the envoy will take care of it', and then try to meet the requirements of the Huns.

To put it more simply, the mistake Liu Ying made in today's court discussion was actually that the 'posture' was not correct.

In other words, Liu Ying is too honest and honest in front of the courtiers and officials, and he is too unruly.

- Anyway, he is also playing politics, how can he say his true thoughts in front of the public?

Seeing people talking about people, talking about ghosts, what identity and what words, this is completely a matter of common sense!

In the words of later generations, this is called 'what position you are in, what kind of mission you shoulder';

In other words, what kind of position you have, what kind of role you should play.

For the provocation of the Huns, 'calmly analyzed' and 'drew objective conclusions', which was what the courtiers and officials should do;

As the Son of Heaven, the only thing Liu Ying needs to do is to show that he will never tolerate such humiliation!

Even if this attitude does not have any substantive significance, Liu Ying must do it.

Guy attitude, or 'political posturing', is a very wonderful thing.

In the eyes of unknown outsiders, political posturing may be a meaningless 'show';

But only by personally experiencing the order of the political arena can we understand that political posture is almost the most concise and straightforward 'way of communication' in the political arena.

It's like······

"Do you know today, if I am not born, what should I do?"

"——Hearing that the emperor 'had no choice but to tolerate Wei Man's improper behavior', all the officials in the court, and even the upper and lower officials on the border of Yandong, may all be effective in the upper and lower levels, and the affairs of North Korea are all based on 'tolerance' as the first priority!"

"The emperor is like this, the officials are up and down, and the people, what should it be?!"

"In the future, won't the world hear about Wei Man and change color, saying that he is 'even the emperor will not dare to punish'?!"

"Duwei Manchu is still like this, what should the Huns, my Han family?!"

"Bow down?"

"If this is the case, where is the spirit of our Han?"

"Outside in front of the barbarians, inside as thousands of subordinates, court, how can there be face?!"

Speaking well, Lu Pheasant's relaxed face was replaced by a touch of deep worry and a little seriousness.

"Since I got out of trouble and returned to Chang'an, and Emperor Taizu Gao had the idea of easy storage, I taught my son several times: those in power, Mount Tai collapsed in front and did not change, the mountains and rivers were subverted, and the universe was reversed, and they should also be self-controlled."

"This, it is said: the heart of the king is unpredictable."

"Today's court discussion, the envoys of the Han Dynasty entered the court, and hundreds of officials, ministers, and nobles were in front of each other, how could my son leave such a big mistake???"

Listening to the old lady's increasingly stern tone, Liu Ying couldn't have the idea of refuting at all, and only lowered her head with shame.

This is the meaning of the existence of 'political posture'.

is the so-called: The king of Chu has a thin waist, and he starves to death in the palace; King Qin likes martial arts, and the whole country is a hero!

The greatest meaning of political posturing is to use relatively obscure and as straightforward political language as possible to tell everyone who needs to be instructed: I have this attitude towards this matter.

In the context of paying attention to the balance of yin and yang, and being very worried about the 'extreme of things must be opposed' in the context of Chinese civilization, the political posture of those in power is in opposition to the actual situation most of the time.

For example, for a certain period of time, the Chinese monarch opened and closed his mouth to 'benevolence, righteousness and morality', and said 'peace and tranquility' outside the words, which must be that the Chinese civilization is in the rising period of external development;

In this case, the king's words revealed that he wanted peace, not war, but he did not really want to reverse the situation, but wanted to use this political gesture to remind his subjects: pay attention to proportion, take one step at a time, and it is easy to talk about it when the step is big.

On the contrary, if the Chinese monarch opens his mouth and closes his mouth to 'be a martial artist', and the 'cadre of the country' before and after tea, it must also be a Chinese civilization, which is in a downturn of internal and external troubles.

At this time, the monarch put on a hawkish posture, not really wanting to open up to the outside world, but to remind the court: You are fighting in this nest, and the fight is a bit too much~

This is like the famous Western proverb in later generations.

- Those who bare their teeth at you are most likely weak; The one who talks and laughs with you is the real strong.

Or, in the words of the later Chinese proverb, it is: dogs that bite people don't bark.

To put it more bluntly, political gestures are like accelerators and brakes for those in power;

When the 'speed' of the regime is too fast, those in power need to step on the brakes to ensure that the regime 'drives' more smoothly;

On the other hand, when the regime is stagnant, it is necessary for those in power to step on the accelerator a little bit so that the 'car' can move, instead of rotting in place and waiting to die.

Similar situations are not uncommon, even in the new era of later generations.

-- The hooligans who hold the important weapons of the town and the country are all kind and pleasant when they see them, and they can even shamelessly say that they are 'messengers of peace';

On the contrary, those who are weak and fearful, on the contrary, will preach their powerful force all day long, but in the end, they will attract a wave of nuclear and inclined ridicule.

And now, the 'car' of the Han Dynasty is in front of the 'threshold' of the Xiongnu, and it is in a state of standing still and standing still;

Under this premise, if Liu Ying, who is in power, steps on the brakes again, then from now on, the 'car' of the Han family may no longer be able to drive the 'threshold' of the Huns······

"Son, ······ guilty"

Thinking of this, Liu Ying finally sighed bitterly and confessed again, and kowtowed to the old lady again, saying that she really realized her mistake.

Of course, if you put aside the intention of admitting her mistake, Liu Ying's kowtow actually carries some gratitude.

——Thanks to Lu Pheasant, after Liu Ying mistakenly stepped on the brake, he stepped on the accelerator again, so that the wheel hub of the 'car' of the Han Room turned again!

Fortunately, Lu Pheasant's expression gradually warmed up after Liu Ying confessed again, and he didn't seem to have the intention of blaming Liu Ying for this.

If he knew that Liu Ying wanted to thank him, Lu Pheasant would even be able to laugh dumbly, and then pat Liu Ying's little head, and joked by the way: Stinky boy, he was polite to his mother······

"Today's loss, say it's not big, it's not small."

"My son is more than 16 years old, and his wedding is imminent; Although he is still a little immature in government affairs, it can be said that it is not bad. ”

"Pay more attention in the future, and then let me help you, and teach in order is ······"

Hearing that the old lady's tone calmed down, Liu Ying finally raised her head, didn't care about feeling guilty about her mistakes, and hurriedly got off the donkey.

"That's what the Queen Mother said."

"After winning the mother, she sits in the court, even if the son loses a little, it doesn't hurt······"

laughing at herself, Liu Ying was not idle at her feet, and hurriedly got up and trotted to Lu Pheasant's side, just rubbing her shoulders and beating her legs.

But seeing that Lu Pheasant only shook his head and smiled helplessly, he still did not forget to remind Liu Ying: "When the Yuanshuo Dynasty is discussed, my son should admonish the Wei Manchu envoy again, so that the ministers and officials know the majesty of the Han Emperor; ”

"At that time, there must be no more ······ today's loss"
