Chapter 784: Confucianism, Confucianism, Royalty, and Domineering

"Bureau!"

Cai Jing saw that Bernedan was following behind Li Kui, like a follower, and thought that Li Kui was valued by Berniedan's identity and wanted to recruit the other party.

As a hardcore follower, Cai Jing didn't want to see Li Kui's golden body being damaged by an inconspicuous little person.

immediately communicated with Li Kui with eyes, wanting to secretly tell Li Kui the key.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Li Kui smiled at Berniedan: "It looks like I've been hungry for a day, Xiao Wu, take this prince of the country of Liuqiu to the restaurant for dinner." ”

After Bernedan left, Cai Jing spoke: "Bureau, this person's identity is very suspicious, it is related to the face of the envoy and the court, once it is mistaken, it may be unfavorable to the bureau." ”

"Not good for me? You're thinking too much. ”

Li Kui gently handed over his daughter, who was asleep on his shoulder, to the maid and sent him home. came to his official residence in the Military Command Bureau, and after taking a seat, he waited for Liang Shijie to order tea. is worthy of being a child of a family, and other means can't be seen, but the skill of ordering tea is not much worse than that of the tea official in the workshop.

"Bureau."

"Father-in-law!"

"Well, you go out first."

Cai Jing sent away his son-in-law, wrapped the hot tea cup in the palm of his hand, and persuaded in a low voice: "Bureau, Benidan's identity has been rejected by Honglu Temple, no matter whether he is true or not, it is always a trouble." ”

"You're saying I'm going to use him, and Honglu Temple will object?" Li Kui didn't feel that Honglu Temple was a trouble at all, and he didn't feel any pressure.

Cai Jing thought about it and felt that it was unlikely, so he shook his head and said: "Not at first, I'm afraid that in case Berniedan's identity is in doubt, we will be passive." ”

Li Kui laughed wildly and said, "Yuan Chang, you have to learn to think about problems with new thinking. What is the situation of my big Song now? ”

"In the battle of Qingheyuan, the Liao State knew that the cavalry fought on the plains, and they would also be restrained by our Great Song Dynasty's sharp weapons. It can be said that even if Anton's gang is defeated in Yanzhou, as long as our military command bureau is there and the Praetorian Guard is there, Liao will not dare to go south for the time being. There is no longer any competition with my Great Song in the world, what else is there to worry about? ”

"But ......"

"Why do you mean I'm exaggerating the issue of Song taxes?" Li Kui chuckled at the corner of his mouth and said, "That's because the Great Song Dynasty is strong, but it doesn't match the territory of the powerful Great Song Dynasty." Even in a short period of time, the war between Song Liao and Song Xia will not end in a year or two because of the appearance of the Praetorian Guard. The Great Song Dynasty was tightened in taxes, and the problem of insufficient government treasury would not only not be eliminated, but would be repeatedly exaggerated with the rise of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Cai Jing has a lot of experience in making money, and at the same time, if he is in the position of the head of the household, he will definitely be anxious.

As Li Kui said, the Great Song Dynasty needs to change.

What will be the result of the change? Don't look at Cai Jing and the others as staunch supporters of the Fa-Changing faction. But in fact, Cai Jing actually saw that changing the law could only bring temporary benefits.

Farsighted......

Test a person's heart, especially when the person is greedy.

Most people are unrestrained in their pursuit of wealth. As a result, the loopholes in the law change will be exploited by others, and may even become a new means of accumulating money. And it's already being done.

"What does the bureau mean, let the Great Song Dynasty completely change direction, and then transfer all the contradictions overseas?" After Cai Jing finished speaking, he became a little uncertain and self-doubting.

Because it's a path that no one has ever taken.

It's really hard to say how it will end.

Li Kui picked up the paper of Benidan and pointed to the words and seals on it: "Some people say it's fake, some people say it's true, who do you think you should listen to?" ”

"Subordinates are stupid." It's not that Cai Jing doesn't have an answer in his heart, but he doesn't dare to say it.

But Li Kui was not afraid, and sneered: "Listen to whom, don't listen to whom, it's nothing more than different ways and not conspiring with each other." Speaking of which, Confucianism and Taoism are reasonable, probation, and the party is the same and different. But when he encounters an opponent who can't be dealt with, he can only admit it, and at most he is resentful: barbarian and immoral. But the royal road is different, the royal road is also reasonable, but only the truth he likes, and suppresses and attacks the disobedient thorns. It's a pity that if the opponent is too strong, you still have to retreat into the process of reasoning with the opponent. ”

"In the end, it is domineering, domineering is unreasonable, or all the truth is said from one's own position. Those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me perish. This is the truth of overbearing. If the country of Liuqiu is on the border of the Great Song Dynasty, and the soldiers can step into it with their legs, then they don't need to use domineering, they can use the royal road. ”

"But Liuqiu is lonely overseas, and it is stupid to reason with the other party at this time. Without deterrence, it cannot last. When you don't have the strength, you can use strange goods to flaunt the importance of the other party, and it is stupid to use this method if you have the strength. The method that should be used at this time is to refer to the deer as the horse! ”

Speaking of this, Li Kui's words changed, and he said a little gloomy: "It doesn't matter whether a prince of Liuqiu Kingdom is true or not. The important thing is that the Great Song Dynasty needs a prince of Liuqiuguo, and this person can be a real prince of Liuqiuguo, or any person. As long as the Great Song Dynasty says that he is the crown prince, he is the prince, even if he is not a human being, he is a head pig, as long as the Great Song Dynasty needs it, he should be the prince of Liuqiu Kingdom. Overseas is an extraordinary place, you can't use Confucianism and Taoism to reform, you can't use royal Taoism to guide, you can only use domineering suppression, do you understand? ”

"When the subordinates heard the words of the bureau, they suddenly opened their mouths, as if they had been empowered."

Li Kui waved his hand and said, "Yuan Rang, you are a smart person, I don't believe you don't understand." I've heard that you're also interested in participating in the fiefdom bid, and if you win, you'll have to recruit your subordinates to invest a lot of money. You have to remember that you are not there to give gifts, but to make money work for you. Human nature is lazy, and I will certainly not listen to your persuasion. When it is time to use the lesson of blood to tell the other party that if you don't cooperate, it will be a dead end. So, a whip in one hand, or even a knife. The other hand holds the benefit, and that's how it should be. ”

Cai Jing is probably the first time he has heard such domineering words in his life, and after hearing them, the shock in his heart is no less than when he heard Wang Anshi's ten tricks.

It's just Hong Zhong Dalu, deafening.

"Yuan Rang, next you go and let people cheer him up and spread some news, so that Berniedan's identity will be known to passers-by at least among the people."

"Bureau...... Whether to change places for Berniedan, he still lives outside the city with his attendants. If the identity of the prince is spread, I am afraid that someone will think with ulterior motives. Cai Jing asked Li Kui.

Li Kui waved his hand and said, "No, let everyone see it." He is not important, what is important is a head. There is no such thing as him. Of course, it would be much easier to have him, but he was of no use to bidders for overseas fiefdoms. ”

Although Cai Jing said that he was completely subjugated to Li Kui's heroic domineering, when it came to action, he was not used to that kind of momentum that dominated the world. I had to ask Li Kui to find ideas.

Li Kui took a sip of the warmed tea soup, the corners of his mouth were slightly moist and the tea soup was lowered, and said kindly: "You arrange for someone to spread the story of the prince of the Liuqiu Kingdom in the Great Song Dynasty, tell me how the merchants of the Great Food Country were greedy, and tell me how Benidan and his guards overcame all the hardships and struggled to make a living in the Great Song Dynasty." The dignified prince, but because of the dereliction of duty of the officials, he struggled to make a living on the dock. At the same time, it is also vaguely said that some officials of Honglu Temple have failed to take responsibility. ”

Instead of letting Honglu Temple come to the door in the future, it is better to go up and beat him up when he sees an opportunity.

Anyway, Li Kui's character of not suffering losses is vividly withdrawn at this time.

Toshido.

Suo Feng, who rose from the position of the middle scholar to the middle of the imperial history, was called by Zhang Dun.

Standing in front of Zhang Dun, Suo Feng trembled and did not dare to speak.

"You are very bold, how did Honglu Temple offend you, you chased them to fight to the death?"

"Zhang Xiang, Xiaguan and Honglu Temple have no personal enmity, some are public anger. The fact that the prince of Ryuukukuni lives on the streets of Tokyo is a well-known thing, but what about Hongroji Temple? But he was indifferent at all, and if he misjudged the truth of the person before, there was still a rhetoric to speak of. But this time, they didn't even have the mind to change their ways, so despicable, how could they receive the Bafang delegation for the Great Song Dynasty and be the dignity of my Great Song Dynasty? Suo Feng Yizheng said, secretly, that is their own supernatural power. But with a high-sounding set of rhetoric, he didn't fall behind at all.

But Suofeng's words are very doubtful.

Zhang Duan looked at Suo Feng for a while, shook his head and said, "No, no." Have you conspired with Li Kui to attack Honglu Temple? ”

"Zhang Xiang, this is a slanderous word, there is no such thing." Sofon insisted.

Zhang Dian had a headache and ordered someone to find Li Kui.

Zhang Dian hung Suo Feng for a long time, and finally called Suo Feng to reprimand, but unfortunately the effect was not good, Suo Feng came to a death and did not admit it, even if he was the prime minister, there was nothing he could do.

There is no need to guess, Suo Feng just listened to Li Kui's suggestion, chased and beat Honglu Temple to the death, and even almost involved the Ministry of Rites, causing a lot of trouble.

Although Honglu Temple has no status in the court, it is not qualified to speak on weekdays. Sanpin Zhengtang doesn't care about money, doesn't care about people, it's an idle yamen. However, the chief officials of this yamen are all nobles, and they are still highly respected nobles.

Zhang Tang did not want to see his camp face off against all the nobles.

Because, speaking of which, he is also one of them.

As for the Ministry of Rites, it should not be. After Zhang Dian took control of the court, the Ministry of Rites was the throat of the court. The impression is thousands of scholars. Of course, the Ministry of Rites also has the function of presiding over the reception of all rituals and visiting missions. It can be said that the Ministry of Rites is the boss of Hongroji Temple. And it is also the territory of his fellow countryman Lin Xi, so bullying these two departments without vital points is more than worth the loss for Zhang Dan.

But Suo Feng didn't care, he was righteous.

It's not that Suo Feng is really angry, but in the court, Li Kui is his natural ally.

They are allies with a lot of money and common interests. Li Kui said that he wanted to get Lin Xi, and of course Suo Feng patted his chest to support. As for Lin Xi, he is also his own person...... I'm just holding a book shelf. Although the Lin family is also a big family, they also have money. But if you want to compare with whom, Suo Feng disdains to be in the company of Lin Xi, whose family wealth is less than one million. The main reason is that Lin Xi often ridicules him as a nouveau riche, which has long made Suo Feng very unhappy.

"Renjie, how much does the matter of Honglu Temple have to do with you?"

Li Kui is in the city and is not going anywhere.

Now he has been promoted again, although he has finally entered the class of high-ranking officials in the Great Song Dynasty, and the official rank is a straight bachelor of Tianzhang Pavilion.

Officially entered the decision-making level of the Great Song Dynasty.

There is a saying that the tree is a big move, especially Li Kui is not very old, and after repeatedly performing miraculous feats, being an official is like a monkey that makes people feel powerless. Freedom makes people jealous.

So, he simply lived in seclusion in the city, not asking about things, not causing trouble.

As for the Honglu Temple?

It has nothing to do with him, this is what Cai Jing did.

Of course, betraying his subordinates is not a good boss, he blinked his eyes for a while, stared at Zhang Dian ignorantly, and said, "Zhang Xiang, you don't think I did this, right?" I have no enmity with Honglu Temple! ”

Zhang Dian knew that he couldn't get the result, and if Li Kui didn't want to say it, he, the prime minister, couldn't scare people.

The angry old man blew his beard and glared, shook off his clothes and walked away, and dropped a sentence before leaving: "Let's do it, you have the ability to kill him!" ”
