Chapter 459 Only when the tide recedes can we see the essence clearly

In the face of Dao Yan's outspokenness, as well as the emphasis on heaven and humanity, Zhu Fan's bull's eyes were like copper bells.

It coincided with Lin Che's point of view again.

However, before he could question it, Dao Yan changed his normal state and no longer pretended to be a ghost. Rather, it is an active explanation.

"His Royal Highness said that only the emperor is old and confused, and he will recommend King Yan to the throne, but this premise must be that the crown prince is gone."

"However, the little monk doesn't think so."

The corners of Dao Yan's mouth rose slightly, outlining a strange arc.

"Because there is no such thing as a faint old age. , people are the more alive Yue Jinming, the more alive and transparent. ”

"If a person becomes deaf in his old age, it is not that he is deaf in his old age, but that he deceived the world and stole his name in his early years, and finally revealed his stuff in his later years."

Zhu Fan: "!! ”

"Only when the tide recedes can we see the essence."

Fifty Zhu Fan stared in astonishment, and Dao Yan said to himself.

"There are some emperors who have no ability themselves, and they follow the laws of heaven, so they have become pigs flying in the sky, riding the wind and rising like a bamboo.

"And once the wind stops, isn't he going to fall?"

"Throughout the ages, there have been countless so-called monarchs who were wise in their early years and dim in their later years."

"For example, one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period, Qi Huan Gongjiang Xiaobai, this individual is a typical born with no ability."

"But as soon as I became the monarch, I told Guan Zhong that I love to play and be lustful, not the material of being the overlord, Guan Zhong replied: It's okay, as long as you are close to the virtuous and the villainous, then it will not prevent you from becoming a hegemon."

"So, Duke Qi Huan listened to Guan Zhong and handed over the power of the court to the other party, and then the princes of Jiuhe became the world, but as soon as Guan Zhong died, he immediately revealed his true form, began to appoint villains, and became a complete faint king."

"In the end, even he starved to death, which is really funny and ridiculous."

"Your Highness, in all fairness, do you think that Duke Qi Huan is only faint in his old age?"

Zhu Fan thought for a while, and couldn't help but shake his head: "This is obviously that he has always been very stupid, but there was a Guan Zhong who took care of him in the early years." ”

"However, as soon as Guan Zhong dies, no one will care about him anymore."

"On your own, something will happen."

Dao Yan was very satisfied with his answer, so he continued.

"There is also Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che, and now people say that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is deaf in his old age, which is nothing more than the 'Witch Gu Disaster'."

"But the 'witch curse' was originally the character of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the inevitability of Emperor Wu's officialdom."

"Everyone knows that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has a mean and unkind character, but the problem is that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty did not start to be mean and unkind in his later years, he has this character from beginning to end."

"Even if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in his early years encountered the 'Witch Gu Disaster', what should happen, what will still happen, so this is not called a faint in his later years."

"Hehe, this is at most an old age unknown."

Dao Yan gave examples in an orderly manner, guiding the shocked Zhu Fan step by step, dispelling the other party's concerns little by little, and eliminating the influence of Lin Che.

"And, Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang fought Qi in his early years, two letters and one state, and no one can match the people's hearts."

"But his military ability is overstretched, and under the situation of great tailwind, he was stunned that he couldn't defeat Yanzhou, and was blocked by Yanzhou assassin Shi Zhang Chong for more than 200 days."

"Later, it wasn't until Zhang Chong died of illness that he successfully broke through the Yanzhou defense line."

"So what he is good at playing with people's hearts, but governing the country and the army is really impossible to evaluate, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is mediocre."

"Therefore, Emperor Wu of Liang is not deaf in his old age, but his concept of governing the country itself is problematic."

"During his reign, the Yourongshi clan engaged in gate lord politics, sacrificed themselves in Buddhist temples to engage in the integration of politics and religion, and abused the imperial family to scatter people's hearts, so it can be said that this person has been in the wrong direction from beginning to end."

"In the early years, I relied on the ability to play with authority, and I could barely make do with it, but the more the contradictions were exposed in the later stage, the more severe the contradictions were exposed, and the rebellion of the waiting scene, in the final analysis, was just to pick out these accumulated contradictions."

Zhu Fan held his breath, kept his eyes off, and listened very seriously, it was difficult not to agree with the crazy monk's novel views.

Inexplicably, I have a new understanding of the word Shengming.

"Including Tang Taizong Li Shimin."

After a pause, Dao Yan said again:

"It is said that Tang Taizong was deaf in his later years, mainly referring to his attack on Goguryeo in his later years, and the reason why he attacked Goguryeo. To put it bluntly, it is for his son Li Zhi. ”

"Originally, Tang Taizong wanted to make a long-term strategic plan and eat Goguryeo step by step, but his crown prince Li Chengqian rebelled, and the new prince became the young Li Zhi."

And Tang Taizong looked down on Li Zhi, thinking that his son was too honest and did not have his own mighty and domineering. Therefore, I felt that the matter of exterminating Goguryeo could not be handed over to the prince. ”

"I will solve all the problems for my son in my lifetime, just like what Your Majesty is doing today."

As he spoke, Dao Yan couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

"Therefore, this will disregard the people's livelihood and devote the strength of the country to exterminate Goguryeo."

"Of course it's not called, and even the brain is very clear and knows what I'm doing."

Hear this.

Zhu Fan bit the dry and cracked dead skin on his lips, hesitated again and again and asked, "Then, what about Tang Xuanzong Li Longji." ”

"He should be considered typical, wise in his early years, and deaf in his later years."

"If you die a few decades early, the proper Holy Lord Mingjun will live for a hundred years."

For his question, Dao Yan smiled disdainfully, his eyes were full of pride, and he wrote lightly:

"Wrong, Tang Xuanzong has never been wise. The evaluation of the "New Tang Dynasty Book" is that the book lives in the middle, and the change begins to plan, and the success cannot be achieved together. ”

"What is called the middle master, it is medium talent."

"Your Highness only needs to read the book of the New Tang Dynasty and the Book of the Old Tang Dynasty about Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, and you will find an interesting phenomenon."

Dao Yan straightened his body and said with a straight face: "All the things that the emperor wants to do by himself have failed without exception, but if the ministers want to do something, as long as the emperor does not mix blindly and is only responsible for a clapper, he can basically succeed in thinking about this matter." ”

"Therefore, Tang Xuanzong and Qi Huangong are a type of monarch, I don't have much ability, I am lustful and fun-loving, I may call back to the power, but I just can't govern the country."

"In the early days, I used the four famous ministers of 'Yao Song Erzhang', that is, the prosperous era of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, and in the later period, I used Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, which was the Anshi Rebellion."

"So he's not deaf in his old age."

"I don't have the ability, and the borrowed power will have to be repaid sooner or later."

After saying it in one breath, Dao Yan took a sip of tea lightly, and then asked meaningfully: "The little monk has said so much, do you still think it is difficult to be an emperor?" Do you still think that it is difficult for the Holy Lord of the Ming Monarch? ”
