Chapter 212, employing people

This time, the reply from these Bao Jia Immortals came quickly. In the second half of the night, Liu Sangu came back again and agreed to Li Chengjing's request.

Li Chengjing was a little helpless, whoever went to bed in the middle of the night and was called up twice, he would not be in a good mood.

"So, you gave up your revenge so quickly?"

"How is it possible, but you are right, our Baojia Immortal is not a crooked demon, and we definitely can't do the thing of killing all you mortals. It will inevitably be exposed afterwards, so we will wait for the people of the Donglin Sect to send the show girl to Fucheng, and after separating from you, we will intercept and kill you halfway. At that time, even if the people of the Central Plains Xuanmen suspect that we did it, as long as they have no evidence, this matter will be a joke at most. ”

Liu Sangu and the others were still not ready to let Qian Qianyi go in the end.

Li Cheng said respectfully: "Who said that the rivers and lakes are just the rivers and lakes of mortals, the immortals in the eyes of mortals are actually the same." ”

"So, now can you tell us, what to do next?"

Li Chengjing looked out the window, the sky was already a little bright, and he knew that it was about to dawn, so he decided to send Liu Sangu away quickly.

Li Chengjing said: "It's very simple, that is, now you Baojiaxian must temporarily give up the idea of opening a hall, and make every effort to let your disciples who sit down go to compete with the disciples of Xuanzong in the Central Plains to compete for fame." ”

Liu Sangu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Li Chengjing said with a smile: "Actually, you chose the wrong direction at the beginning. Whether you can open a hall in Daqing and gain a firm foothold does not depend on how many good things you have done and how many popular hearts you can get. It's about whether Emperor Daqing agrees with you. As long as you can get the permission of Emperor Daqing, you will not do a good deed, and you can still open halls in various places in Daqing, and it will be unimpeded, and no one will hinder you. ”

"Then you still let us compete with the Xuan cultivators for fame."

Li Chengjing sighed and said: "Striving for fame is not the goal, but through striving for fame, to show your attitude and determination to Emperor Daqing, and to express goodwill to Emperor Daqing by constantly doing good deeds in various places and actively helping the local government to stabilize public order." ”

"Then at the right time, express your heartfelt heart to Emperor Daqing, this is the key to whether you can open a hall in Daqing. Even if you win the hearts of everyone, Emperor Daqing only needs to say that you are evil demons, and all your efforts will be useless. I'm afraid that unless the Yuan Kingdom can annex the Qing Kingdom, you may be able to open a hall here reasonably and legally. ”

Liu Sangu's face was at a loss, what Li Chengjing said was what they thought and planned, although the purpose was the same, but the direction and process were almost the opposite.

Liu Sangu and other Baojiaxian first conceived that it would be to win the hearts of the people, and then force the government to recognize it.

And Li Chengjing's idea was to express his attitude to the emperor by seeking new people, and finally exchange loyalty and submission for official recognition.

Liu Sangu didn't know which was the right choice, and after hesitating for a while, she said: "But don't the sub-saints of your human race say that those who win the hearts of the people win the world?" Could it be that we made the wrong choice before? Or is your Terran Yasheng's words wrong? ”

When Li Chengjing heard this, his face was not to mention how exciting.

Sighing, Li Chengjing said helplessly: "Don't you Baojia Immortals study?" ”

Liu Sangu's face flushed slightly.

They are monsters, they cultivate immortals, they read Taoist scriptures, and they naturally don't pay much attention to the Confucian scriptures and righteousness of mortals.

After all, reading the essence of Confucianism can't make them immortals and gods.

Li Chengjing shook his head helplessly and said: "Let me tell you very clearly, Yasheng did not say that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, this is some corrupt Confucianism in order to deceive the people and take Yasheng's words out of context. ”

"The original saying is that there is a way to win the world: to win the people, to win the world; There is a way to win the people: to win their hearts, to win the people. ”

"Is there a difference?" After a long silence, Liu Sangu asked blankly. 33

What this means is that if you want to get the world, you must be able to make the people obey your commands, and if you want the people to obey your commands, you must win the hearts of the people. It looks the same, but it's really different. As you say, if you win the hearts of the people, you can win the world, and Yasheng's words are that winning the hearts of the people is only a means, not an end. The purpose is to be able to command the people. ”

"The will of the people is only one of the means of obtaining orders from the people, not the only one. The law, the army, the intimidation, the inducement, all serve the purpose of commanding the people. The government of the sub-holy lord is benevolent, so he advocates winning the hearts of the people. ”

"But if you look at history, which emperor has won the hearts of the people and sat firmly? Not a single one. Yasheng's words, there is another sentence after him, and he has a way in his heart: Gather with him as much as he wants, and don't do anything evil. ”

Don't you think it's romantic, naΓ―ve? If it is for the sake of the people, does the people not want to pay taxes, the court will give up the tax burden, the people will not want to fight, and the court will give up conscription? The people don't want to plow the fields, so should the court send food to support them? If you want to drive the people, you must use the law to shock them, suppress them with power, use military might, lure them with profit, and appease them with benevolence. Thus commanding the people not to dare to disobey. ”

"So, if you only want to win the hearts and minds of the people, then I can only say that you are too naΓ―ve."

Liu Sangu opened her mouth wide, looked at Li Chengjing dumbfounded, and said meaningfully after a long time: "Your human race is really too complicated......

But she can understand it when she thinks about it.

In the world of monsters, it doesn't make sense to whoever has the biggest fist, wait until you are obedient, and then give a few sweet dates.

I think that at the beginning, the King of Grief gathered these Baojia immortals, wasn't the same method used at the beginning?

Suddenly, Liu Sangu had a fear of Li Chengjing.

This fear has no reason, which makes Liu Sangu very uncomfortable.

"Well, I'll send your words back."

After speaking, Liu Sangu jumped out of the window and left.

Li Chengjing was stunned for a long time, frowned and shook his head, he hasn't finished speaking, shouldn't you tell me, how to contact you, which Bao Jiaxian came to listen to my order?

But thinking about it, they will contact themselves later, and Li Chengjing is not in a hurry.

Early the next morning, the procession, which had been here for more than a month, finally began to advance towards Fucheng.

Zhang Jiuchen personally sent everyone to the city gate and watched the group stay away.

Only this time the number of people in the team has been greatly reduced.

Because she was in a hurry, Mi Jinghua was surrounded by two maids and an old mother, and even those ordinary guards were ordered by Qian Qianyi to return directly.

Only Li Chengjing, Xiao Daolong and other four martial arts masters followed.

As soon as he got out of the city, seeing that there were no people around, Qian Qianyi sacrificed a talisman, so that the carriage he was riding seemed to be lifted by the breeze, and the speed of the carriage was incredible.

Fucheng, which was extremely difficult to reach in a month, took only 16 days for everyone to arrive.

This made Xiao Daolong and a few other mortal martial artists feel as if they were in a mythical world, full of infinite fantasies about the Xuanxiu Dao method on the mountain.

And Li Chengjing sighed that Donglin Sect was rich and rich, in order to hurry, Qian Qianyi used four talismans, as far as Li Chengjing knew, although this kind of talisman was not an attack talisman, but for mortals, it was also worth a lot of money, at least about two thousand taels.

However, being able to arrive so quickly, Li Chengjing was naturally happy.

It's just that Mi Jinghua is difficult to be happy, because when she arrives in Fucheng, she will really be separated from Li Chengjing.

Some people died, but not completely......
