Lin Yi frowned, he looked at Jian Wenhou, and asked softly, "I noticed that you were talking about that time. ”

"It was then, and then a lot of things happened, and my perspective changed. ”

If he talked about the past in normal times, even if he wanted to really state his opinion, Jian Wenhou might take a more tactful way, but now he doesn't have much time, so he answered very directly, "Entangled in the old feelings, judging a person will not be too intense, just like back then, my choice was to be right or wrong, the matter has come to this, if there is disappointment, I simply can't see it, don't look, don't think, don't oppose, don't maintain." But now that I'm about to leave this world, my mood will be different. Different emotions lead to different perceptions. ”

Lin Yi nodded, he could understand.

After he won the world, he began to build Buddhist temples. At the beginning, I was the same as some people, that it is a good thing for people to have reverence for the gods and Buddhas, to do more good deeds and accumulate virtue, and to pay attention to karma. ”

Jian Wenhou calmed down and slowly continued: "It's just that later he built more and more Buddhist temples, and more than 300 temples were built in three years, not counting, and he also opened up Buddhist caves on a large scale in various places. In our opinion, even if it is to teach the scriptures, it is not as much as possible, there are many Buddhist temples and not enough monks, it is natural that the good and the bad are uneven, not that there are many monks, and there will be more famous and virtuous people. ”

It is said that when He Xian heard this, he sarcastically gave Shen Yue a sentence, saying that it was better to give all the money for building those temples and captive monks to those who could really fight, or all on military funds. ”

Jian Wenhou couldn't help but shake his head, looked at Lin Yi and said, "What he said at the time was captivity, which means that raising those people is no different from raising pigs." Of course, his words were a bit excessive, but for some reason, when I heard them at the time, I thought it made perfect sense. ”

"He reigned for three years... At that time, the Northern Wei Dynasty was already strong, and I think it makes sense to expand military resources. Lin Yi said his thoughts very honestly.

"In the confrontation between the north and the south, He Xiuxing has always adhered to the idea that he should not only worry about the affairs of the south, but if he wants to think about the affairs of the north and the south. At that time, his idea was too dangerous, because most of us thought that if it weren't for the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, he wouldn't be able to look down on him, otherwise

Maybe he is willing to take the Sword Pavilion and his supporters to lead the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty into Jiankang and decide the world in one fell swoop. ”

Jian Wenhou sighed, of course he himself was one of the people who stood at the highest place in this world, but at this time, when he thought of the ideas of He Cultivation in the past, he felt more and more that he was indeed far from cultivating at least in many aspects such as ambition and courage.

"Respect for martial arts, before the Northern Wei Dynasty was peaceful, there were not a few people who supported military rule rather than civil rule, let alone the long-standing and ethereal idea of gods and Buddhas to govern the country. However, in the eyes of some of us, building Buddhist temples every year is not just a snowball, but also investing more money in these Buddhist temples every year, raising a large number of monks who do not work and do not use swords. In the eyes of some of us, the most dangerous thing is that the more we accept the truth of these Buddhist temples, the more good people's hearts are, the weaker they are, and over time, they are really obedient, you bully me and insult me, and I don't fight with you... If there is only one dynasty in the world, this is the real gentleman's country, forget it, but the Northern Wei Dynasty is a tiger and wolf, and sooner or later it will swallow you. ”

Jian Wenhou's voice was slightly cold: "After a few years, I will be happy with it, and I will follow suit." Moreover, the selection of talents in the court is biased towards his preferences, and most of the people who choose are soft and kind. I feel that the atmosphere has changed subtly, and before he really fights with a strong enemy, Jiankang is already lazy, without sharpness, the key is that Xiao Yan himself has changed greatly from the past, he is more and more kind, more patient and tolerant, even if the people around him make mistakes, as long as he cries bitterly and shows enough repentance, he really believes that the person will put down the butcher knife and change his past. ”

Lin Yi's brows furrowed unconsciously.

He used to be in a low position, and he didn't see many things, and he wouldn't look at things from the height of Jian Wenhou, so he didn't have such a strong feeling, but he felt that it made sense when he listened to it.

What he can be sure of is that in the old dynasties, wars often broke out between the north and the south, but although the Northern Wei Dynasty was brave before, it did not ridicule the weakness of the Southern Dynasty too much, but in recent years, there have been more and more voices talking about the weakness of the Southern Dynasty.

In fact, the old soldiers on the border are still those people, and those old border soldiers naturally cannot become cowardly after a few years.

The well-known armies of the Southern Dynasties are still brave and good at fighting, but I am afraid that they are really in position

of generals, but there are more and more weak ones.

Just like when they escorted the things of the Guo family in Bailan County to here, they met Lan Huaigong, as well as the generals in this city who were killed by Wang Chaozong.

This is not a few accidents.

He took a deep breath and truly understood what Jian Wenhou meant.

A big tree, withering some branches and leaves is nothing, but the roots are beginning to rot, slowly rotting into the heart of the tree, this is the most terrible thing.

"Later, he had a nephew who robbed a woman and killed someone in the street, but I was so disappointed that he was not guilty of the past because of that man's repentance, even if I knew that I had done evil, as long as I repented, he would forgive me in the same way. But I'm not going to do that kind of thing, this dynasty, although it is dedicated to goodness, is not a dynasty that has good intentions for really good people. ”

Jian Wenhou sighed deeply, "Just like now, the survival of the Southern Dynasty is at stake, and there are many unfavorable wars, but who did he put the military power into? There are so many famous generals of the previous dynasty, including your father, who can obviously fight well, but when it is time to use it, he doesn't need it." ”

"A good person may not necessarily do good things, even if his intentions are really good, and he really wants to use the most benevolent means to change the world. Even if he has countless believers. ”

Jian Wenhou looked at Lin Yi's eyes and said slowly and extremely seriously: "So I'd rather you look at this world and everyone with a fierce and sharp gaze like He Xiu, rather than look at this world and everyone with too kind eyes." A lot of times, you have to follow the voice of your heart, and don't compromise as easily as I did, and then end up disappointed and unwilling to look at the world that has put your life into it. ”

"Good people, good intentions, good ideas, not necessarily all good things. Lin Yi groaned, he nodded seriously, and said: "This is something I haven't read in books before, I will remember it carefully, and then I will choose the thing itself because of the person's starting point." ”

Jian Wenhou laughed.

He looked at Lin Yi gently and contentedly, and said softly, "It's good to be young..."
