Chapter 14: The Imperial City Zhenguowei -14
Lu Yunhe stroked his goatee and said to the emperor: "All this has to start from the beginning, Your Majesty, the old minister will tell a few young heroes about the history of Diouman." According to what John said, this Diuman was originally a federal system in ancient times, and several large families formed an institution called the 'Senate' to jointly manage the country, and the country was in a state of contention for a long time, so they were not weak at that time, but they were not strong. But then ......"
The emperor looked like a listener, and hurriedly urged: "Teacher, don't sell it, go on!"
Lu Yunhe smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, let me speak slowly." Later, a strong man named Cade emerged from several major families, who took control of the army because of a war of foreign expansion, and he slowly hollowed out the power of other families and suppressed them. In the end, this strongman ascended the throne and became emperor, later known as Kaide the Great, and Diuman became a powerful and military state, and from there, the strength of the country began to soar. ”
The Emperor nodded: "I have heard of the name of Emperor Kaide! He is also known all over the world, I remember, this person can be regarded as a heroic figure like the Dragon Ancestor of the founding of the Great Xuan." ”
When Lu Yunhe heard this, his face changed and he angrily rebuked: "Your Majesty! This is not true! Who is it that my grandfather and grandfather are talking about? He is the first emperor of the ages who swept away the twelve kingdoms and unified the world! The car is the same as the track, the book is the same! The Wuqi clan of the Northern Grassland will be defeated! In the future, the robber Dinu will be defeated! The 300,000 barbarian soldiers will be wiped out in one battle! Dinu will not dare to commit any offense in a hundred years! Wuqi will also be integrated into my Daxuan, and there will be no difference! Later Taizu will drive the desert to the west! A hundred countries will surrender! Deter all countries with hegemony! Use the royal road to recover the hearts of the people! I will set up a capital to protect the government and govern a hundred countries! What the will of the people! Who dares to compare?! After opening up the desert trade routes! The whole world knows that I am a great proclamation of prestige! Ancestor Long's martial arts are rare in the world! How can Your Majesty use my Great Xuan Long Ancestor as a metaphor for others!?"
The emperor actually knew that he had just said the wrong thing, but before he could take back his words, he was scolded by his teacher like a cannon, and now he had to obediently bow his head and be scolded. However, Wu Nai and the three of them listened passionately, nodded again and again, and felt that the prime minister was right, the great grandfather was martial arts, and he has been on the throne for more than 30 generations, how can he be compared with others!
The prime minister eased up, suppressed his temper, and said again with a pleasant face: "Please Your Majesty not to mention Grandpa Tai lightly in the future, let alone compare Grandpa Tai with others." I have always revered my ancestors the most, and your Majesty must not forget. ”
The emperor saw that the prime minister's temper had gone down, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a loud voice: "I must remember the teacher's teachings. ”
The prime minister nodded and continued: "Although this Kaide Emperor is said to be inferior to our grandfather Xuan Tai in terms of martial arts, if he wants to change someone else in the world, I am afraid it will be difficult to find a second to surpass him." The legend of Emperor CapitaLand has actually been heard of for a long time, compared to my Dragon Ancestor, this Emperor CapitaLand is the worst because he only knows soldiers. I declare that the Dragon Ancestor is a kingly and domineering and uses it, while the Emperor Kaide only knows the domineering! Although he has laid a huge territory, it fell apart after his death, and the current Diuman reunification is different from the time of Emperor Kaide. ”
The Emperor continued, "What's the difference?"
The prime minister returned: "The later Diuman was divided among the sons and grandsons of Emperor Cayde, and was not unified for two hundred years. It was not until the emergence of the Holy Bishops, after a long period of religious infiltration, that finally these people were brought together again in a federal system because of the unity of religious ideas. ”
The prime minister stroked his beard and continued: "The current Diuman is more respected than the state, and the pope has the privilege of crowning the emperor and removing the emperor. However, the power of state administration was still held jointly by their emperor and senate. Therefore, if the mind is not one, it will be difficult to achieve things. After listening to the description of the envoy John, the minister personally felt that compared to the era of Emperor Cayde, the current Diuman is far behind. “
When the emperor heard this, he suddenly sighed: "Alas, I have declared that the era of the Dragon Ancestor is not out of reach. ”
The prime minister also sighed after hearing this, and comforted: "Your Majesty...... It has been almost 50 years since the Emperor of the Daoist Emperor was abolished, and you should not think much about anything else now, but you should follow the example of the deceased emperor, work hard like him, restore the past glory of the Great Xuan little by little, and let the country prosper is the right way!"
The emperor's eyes were solemn, and he sighed again and replied, "I know, I know...... Teacher, let's move on to Diouman. ”
"Good. After Diuman was reunited, he conquered countless small surrounding states, and they proselytized while conquering, and almost all of the surrounding small states from then on believed in the Holy Bishop, and became vassal states that accepted their subdivision. The warrior Edward, the Thor of Solland, a state under Diuman, was not a real Diouman. ”
The prime minister paused and continued: "The minister feels that the current Diuman envoys have two fatal weaknesses. ”
After hearing this, the emperor couldn't hold back any longer, grabbed the dragon chair and got up and asked, "Okay! It's time to get to the point!
When Wu Nai heard this, he pricked up his ears seriously.
The prime minister returned: "Your Majesty, don't be bored. The weakness of the Diouman legation was that his people were loyal to the country and not to the country. Different from our Daxuan, the Daxuan people believe in the Book of Rites, believe in the Heaven and Earth Monarch and Teacher, and the people of Li all believe in the identity of the 'Daxuan people', and they have the same identity. Diuman seems to be unified, but in fact, apart from the doctrine, they do not agree with the customs and writings of other peoples, and even under the assimilation of the Holy Bishop, they do not agree with each other as 'the same line'. So, they're not that united. The minister boldly assumed that if they had a military campaign, Diuman and his own state would be like a cooperation between merchants, united for the same purpose and benefit, and if the distribution of benefits went wrong, they would fall apart. ”
The prime minister looked at Wu Nai and the three of them and said, "Everyone knows about their past, and now it's easy to understand." This weakness of the Diouman mission can be said in two sentences. One, they are not so united, and most of the people of the state, and even their own people, are loyal to God and not to the king. Second, talking about the change of wealth and color, it seems to be one, in fact, their states also fight with each other for land and property all year round, and the envoy John and the old minister boasted that he had put down five rebellions, and the old minister can be sure that it is easy to divide between the Diuman suzerainty and the state, and when it comes to individuals, the same applies!"
After the prime minister finished speaking, he stared at Wu Nai with a look that implied that others were going to do bad things, Wu Nai looked at the complicated eyes of Prime Minister Lu Yunhe, suddenly thought about it, and nodded. Having said so much, in fact, the prime minister just wants to tell himself that the other party is greedy for money and not so loyal to the country, so he can rest assured that he can use such indiscriminate means as money offensive to bombard and divide them.
After the prime minister saw Wu Nai nodding, he seemed to have understood what he conveyed Wu Nai understood, and then showed a wicked smile. And Wu Nai also nodded with a cheap smile, the old fox and the little fox convey bad water, often one look is enough.
The Emperor looked at the two of them a little confused, and hurriedly said, "Do you want to buy that Edward to lose to us?
The prime minister put away a subtle smile and returned: "It's nothing, Your Majesty doesn't have to care, I don't have the intention of bribing the other party to play a match-fixing match." ”
The Emperor asked, "What is the use of this information?"
The prime minister looked at Wu Nai and said, "One thing is a little, Wu Shaoxia can understand the opponent better, isn't it good?"
Wu Nai nodded yes, but thought in his heart, His Majesty the Emperor is really too good, wouldn't it be good if he could win? Do you really think that benevolence, righteousness, and morality can be eaten as food? Don't you know how people hurt us! What are you polite to this kind of person?
But the prime minister's words suddenly changed again: "Wu Shaoxia is good if he has gains, but he must remember! My face must be earned back in a dignified and upright manner during the martial arts competition! Don't let people say anything bad about our big announcement." ”
The prime minister's sudden blow made Wu Nai's face a little unbearable, and he thought: "Heh! You old fox! Imply that I will hold back the bad water for the other party! Now I have to clean myself again! You give me a great and righteous dismount here, what do you mean? You say all the good things, and you do all the good things! I go and dig out the dung, and if I expose the filling, I have to stuff it into my mouth? What an old fox who doesn't suffer!"
Dissatisfied and dissatisfied, Wu Nai still reluctantly squeezed out a smiling expression and returned: "Grass people remember ......"
The prime minister nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "Then Wu Shaoxia, do you have anything to gain from another envoy?"
Wu Nai pursed his mouth and pressed his breath from his throat to his stomach, and returned: "Okay, Prime Minister, listen to me!"
