Chapter 218: Good and Evil
In the early days of the Han Dynasty, it was written in the historical records that Liu Bang was trapped in Bai Mountain, relying on Chen Ping's beauty plan, Liu Bang ran away with Chen Gong, giving people a feeling that the Han Dynasty was too weak, so there was harmony.
In fact, in the battle of Baishan Mountain, Liu Bang was trapped on the mountain and could not break through, while the Maodun cavalry was mainly strong, and the ability to attack the fortification was poor, and they could not attack Baishan Mountain, and they were in a stalemate with each other.
At this time, reinforcements from the Han Dynasty had arrived nearby.
It is impossible for Maudun to win.
Liu Bang didn't want to fight because he couldn't defeat Mao Dun, and Mao Dun didn't want to fight because he couldn't defeat Liu Bang. So, Liu Bang took the initiative to ask Chen Ping to send some gifts, beauties, etc., indicating that he had made peace. And Mao Dun also opened a hole and let Liu Bang leave. It was a tie with each other, so there was a later harmony.
In the historical records, Mao Dun is written as a womanizer, and when he sees a beautiful woman, he can't move, and he directly lets go of the enemy, which is too fake. directly wrote Mao Dun as King Zhou You.
If Mao Dun can really fight, it will not be the siege of Baideng, but the shame of Jingkang.
Throughout Chinese history, only strong dynasties can make peace. Liu Bang and the Xiongnu fought a draw, both sides saw the strength of the other party, Liu Bang was reluctant to fight again in his later years, so he took peace. Songtsen Gampo asked Li Shimin to make peace was refused, Songtsen Gampo fought a battle with the Tang Dynasty (lost), Li Shimin saw that Songtsen Gampo was a little bold, so he agreed to make peace. And some weaker dynasties such as the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the Two Song Dynasties are not qualified to be close at all.
As for the discord in the Ming Dynasty, it was not needed in the early stage, and it was impossible in the later period.
The scholars and doctors kidnapped with integrity and morality, and the government and the opposition in the Ming Dynasty regarded harmony as a shame. The more urgent the situation, the more discordant the Ming Dynasty became, and resolutely resisted.
By the late Ming Dynasty, he no longer had the strength to make peace, and Chongzhen sent Chen Xinjia to negotiate peace with Houjin, and Chen Xinjia became a scapegoat after being discovered. In fact, the Ming Dynasty's officials were too powerful, not to mention harmony, and they didn't even agree to move the capital to Nanjing. Chongzhen wants to keep the Ming Dynasty, you can use any method, but the officials do not agree, Chongzhen said that "the ministers are mistaken" There is a certain truth, but the pot of the fall of the Ming Dynasty is Chongzhen to back.
Don't feel humiliated at the mention of harmony, and trade women for peace.
Don't move around, it's integrity, morality and so on.
It is the imperial history and the indignant youth who talk about integrity, and the great Confucianism who talks about morality.
A real politician needs to maximize the interests of the country, and blindly pursuing fame will only end up in Chongzhen.
In the eyes of the emperor, there is only one reason for discord, and that is that a certain country has no use value.
"Harmony does not mean peace, and I don't think that relying on the charm of a woman can make the two countries stop fighting...... After all, there will be a fight, and only when the two countries are tired of fighting can there be peace!" Li Mu said: "There is going to be a war again!"
Saying that, when I think of nuclear weapons, nuclear peace is peace.
Although it is a tightrope peace, at least it is peace.
"This time, the second prince's mission is here, and you are in charge of the reception!" King Zhenbei said.
"I'll receive!"
Li Mu frowned slightly, he didn't want to participate in such a diplomatic event.
"The king does not see the king...... In this mission, there was a celestial man sitting in his son. It's not good for me to participate, the king doesn't see the king, it's just right for you to participate, it's not too strong, it's not too weak! If you lose, it won't have much impact, and if you lose, it's not a big problem!" said Zhenbei Wang.
"Got it!"
Li Mu nodded and began to arrange the reception.
............
Three days later, the horse's hooves sounded the owner, and there was an overwhelming sound in the distance, and the war horses were singing in unison. There was a team of about 5,000 people, and there were knights and carriages in the vicinity, and the aura was mighty and exuding an extraordinary aura. From a distance, I saw a young man with pigtails, with a mighty breath and a trace of terror, it was the second prince.
"Why the second prince...... Not the eldest prince!" Li Mu suddenly asked.
"The eldest prince, killed...... So the second prince ascended the throne!" King Zhenbei said: "Of course, the Yuantu Kingdom is a barbarian country, and it does not pay attention to respect and humility, but only to the strength and weakness. Whoever is strong is the superior, that kind of father kills son, son kills father, brother kills brother, its chaos is like a beast!"
"Supposedly, it's a little better now!"
With that, the king of Zhenbei disappeared.
Li Mu walked down the city tower and went to greet him.
At the moment when Li Mu arrived at the gate of the city to greet him, the army in the city was on guard to prevent accidents and the worst situation.
Da-da-da-da!
The horse's hooves sounded, the war horse stood at Li Mu's hundred-step position, the second prince got off the war horse, led the horse and said, "You are, Tianshui County guards Li Mu!"
"Yes, I'm Li Mu!"
Li Mu said.
"I'm going to the capital to ask for relatives, and I'm temporarily passing through Tianshui County, so I'm disturbed!" said the second prince.
"When you come from afar, the prince, please come in!" Li Mu said.
So saying, the two walked side by side and entered the city gate.
The prince spoke wittily and elegantly, like a learned Confucian scholar, giving people a sense of politeness. It's not easy to get along, and it's not easy to go to a princess, although this princess may be a fake princess, but she doesn't have a certain literary accomplishment or a certain cultural foundation, how can she do it.
Li Mu is also talking, talking about Confucianism, talking about poetry...... After all, Tanhua was born, and the literary level has nothing to say.
After talking for a while, the two suddenly met again and hated each other.
"If there is no war in the world and peace between the two countries, how good it would be!" Li Mu said suddenly.
The second prince said: "I came for peace and peace!"
Li Mu sighed and said, "I hope so!"
As he walked, the second prince suddenly asked, "If it were Your Excellency, how would you choose, do you sacrifice one person to save ten thousand people, or sacrifice ten thousand people to save one person?"
"There is no difference between one person and ten thousand people, if it is measured, it is a sin in itself!" Li Mu said.
The second prince said again: "What if you have to make a choice?"
Li Mu said: "If that person is my father, wife, lover, son, etc., I will say that the life of ten thousand people is not as good as the life of one person; if that person has nothing to do with me, I will naturally say, I have taken the overall situation into account, and I have the courage to sacrifice one person for the benefit of all people! If it is not about myself, I can naturally take care of the overall situation; but if it is about myself, I am sorry that the overall situation is not important, I am the most important." Or rather, I'm the big picture...... Without me, there is no big picture!"
The second prince asked again: "Then in your eyes, what is good and evil?"
Li Mu was silent for a moment, and then said: "Those who are good to me are good, those who evil me are evil, and those who sin me are sinful.
PS: There is another change, which is in the codeword. The third watch, let's watch it tomorrow morning!
