Spring is blooming, and everything is recovering.

Without the war, the country of Ye regained its vitality.

The common people have also started a busy life for a year, and the merchants and travelers have also fattened their horses, ready to go to the princes and countries to purchase some things that Ye did not have.

From the end of March to the end of March, the spring rain fell as promised.

In today's Ye court, the atmosphere is not quite right, and the reason is nothing more than the concept of 'rudeness and non-state, no benevolence, no army, no virtue and no country' put forward by a scholar.

"Nowadays, many vassal states have implemented this system and thinking, if we want to prosper and prosper, we must use virtue and wisdom to practice the law of benevolence and righteousness, advocate the system of etiquette and music, advocate education and benevolent government, advocate virtue and virtue, change customs, supplemented by punishment, eliminate violence and peace, and all the people will return to it, so that our Ye country can be stable and prosperous for a long time. ”

"Lord Xia, this is serious......

Li Puyi, the Taifu on the side, said: "Courtesy, benevolence, and virtue, these three things can be a person's inner virtues, but it is a little too ...... to take the foundation of governing the country among him."

He didn't say the rest of the words, but with the cleverness of King Ye Zhao Yan, he could naturally know what he meant.

Zhao Yan nodded and said: "Taifu is right, it is too child's play to govern a country with the inner virtues of these three people, besides, follow the etiquette system left by the ancestors and educate the benevolent government, haven't these things been done yet?"

"The king, the minister doesn't say that the king didn't do it, but he thinks that the king hasn't done enough. ”

"Not enough?"

Ye Wang Zhao Yan frowned, slightly dissatisfied.

"The minister believes that a person, especially a person in a high position, must also have a heart of love and compassion, only in this way can the society be peaceful and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. ”

That's not true. ”

Li Puyi smiled and said: "A person's character is of course important, but to maintain social stability, only by relying on the law, and only fair and strict laws are the fundamental guarantee for social stability. ”

"Master Taifu is right. ”

Zhao Yan nodded and agreed: "There are no rules, there is no circle, if people are not restrained, they can do anything." ”

"The king is right, the Fa is important, but a person's virtue is even more important. ”

Doctor Nashi continued: "There was once a general, here the minister does not say his name, only what he did at that time, that army in the western desert, slaughtering barbarians like slaughtering chickens and dogs, even the old and weak, women and children, many tribes' villages have been reduced to ruins, that hell-like scene, the minister dare not imagine. ”

"If this kind of thing is not stipulated by the king, then in the future, won't my Ye people be as barbaric as beasts in the eyes of others?"

As soon as they heard this, many people's faces changed, and their eyes involuntarily turned to Chu Yujia in the crowd of military generals.

He obviously meant something else, almost everything he said before was a fart, and only the last sentence was the most critical.

Chu Yujia still looked like he was hanging out, as if he hadn't heard it.

King Ye Zhao Yan set his eyes on Chu Yujia and asked, "General Chu, what do you think of this matter?"

"Sit and watch. ”

Chu Yujia raised his head and said with a smile.

"Then you stand up and stand and watch. ”

Chu Yujia was obedient and stood up.

King Ye Zhao Yan asked again: "General Chu, do you think what Lord Xia said is reasonable?"

"Are you sure you want me to say it?"

"Sure. ”

"I think this man is talking like a fart, and nine out of ten sentences he says are not beaten. ”

Chu Yujia was so polite that he even said the words of the owe beating.

The ministers in the audience all looked at him with a different kind of eyes, obviously there was a lot of disgust in that kind of eyes.

I feel that Chu Yujia is really too rude, and he dares to be so presumptuous in front of the king, isn't it obvious who owes the beating?

The doctor surnamed Na Xia sneered: "General Chu, you are really rude." ”

"Then you're polite?"

Chu Yujia sneered: "I'm a rough person, and what I say is all foul language, if you can listen to it, just listen, if you can't listen to it, don't listen." ”

"For you, I do the same, what you say, I can listen to it if I want to, and I don't listen to it if I don't want to, but if you fart in front of me, it's your fault. ”

As soon as these words came out, the face of the doctor surnamed Xia turned green, and King Ye Zhao Yan held back a smile, but he couldn't laugh.

Doctor Xia raised his hand and pointed at Chu Yujia's nose and said, "Then do you think that bullying a few small barbarian states with the power of a big country is what a big country is for?"

"That's a light thing to say. ”

Chu Yujia tilted his head: "I want to ask you, Lord Xia, where were you born and where do you come from?"

"I am born in Pingyang County, what does it have to do with you?"

"Pingyang County, this place is good, it is really a good place, it can be said that it is a good place in the whole Ye country, good mountains and rivers, as well as natural dangers, heavily guarded every year, our neighbor Hou Song is also a lord yearning for peace, never took the initiative to attack a city in my Ye country, the entire Pingyang County can be said to be happy, a rich scene. ”

"That's the king's good governance. ”

"Yes, it is the king who governs well. ”

Chu Yujia looked at Zhao Yan and arched his hand and said: "I am still young, and I don't understand many things, but I vaguely remember that once the king came to my house as a guest, and once said a word, even if more than ten years have passed, I still remember it vividly, but I don't know, can the king let me say it?"

King Ye Zhao Yan waved his hand and said, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Do you still remember the battle in the desert ten years ago when the 100,000 troops led by the prince and the Northwest Army were in the desert?"

As soon as he heard this, Zhao Yan immediately realized it.

Chu Yujia continued: "In that battle, the king wanted to directly sweep away the desert barbarians in one go, so as to give my Ye country a peaceful border, but the result, before the king could send troops, more than 30 ministers in the royal court jointly played, asking the king to show a tolerant attitude towards this barbarian who killed countless Ye people, plundered countless women, and burned many villages and towns, because this is called the demeanor of a great country. ”

Chu Yujia narrowed his eyes, looked at the doctor surnamed Naxia and said, "Then have you ever been to the northwest?"

"Not yet. ”

The man was right.

"Then have you ever seen the barbarians attack my Yeguo village?"

"Have you ever seen my people displaced?"

"Have you ever seen my people starving to death on the streets?"

Chu Yujia sneered: "A person who has never seen anything, don't you think it's funny that you are bullying a barbarian country with me and what a big country?"

"Then let me ask you, what about the people of my country who are suffering on the border?"

"What about the burned down village in my country?"

"Tell me, who is responsible, who is responsible for the people, is it you, or the king?"

"Ten years ago, the king was going to destroy it in one go, who stopped the king from letting the king send troops, and who forced the king to retreat overnight?"

"When you said such things, did you ever think about the people of Ye Kingdom?"

"Do you know how disgusting your noble appearance was in the eyes of me, who was only ten years old at the time?"

Chu Yujia nodded and said: "What you said is also good, the Northwest Army did do a lot of such things at the beginning, and dozens of tribes that refused to be stable were exterminated by the Northwest Army for more than ten years. ”

The doctor surnamed Xia was speechless by Chu Yujia, but when he saw that Chu Yujia actually took the initiative to say this, he immediately changed his indignant appearance and said: "As the defender of the northwest of my Ye country, I actually left my post without permission to do such a thing that is inferior to a beast, so what else can I say?"

"Why don't you have anything to say?"

Chu Yujia sneered: "It's still the same sentence just now, let me ask you, you care so much about the alien race, but you don't care about the compatriots in the border area, is it natural that the people in the border area are slaughtered by the alien race?"

The doctor surnamed Xia was stunned for a moment, and then retorted: "The people in the border areas are persecuted by foreign races, as an official of the imperial court, of course I sympathize, and I think that most of the foreign races are just for money, we only need to give them some money and goods to settle the matter, and we can also send virtuous and noble people to influence them." ”

"Why do you need to use your sword and kill so many people?"

After finishing speaking, he still looked at Chu Yujia with a righteous look.

"Well, well-said, well-said, croaking. ”

Chu Yujia clapped his hands again and again, and then asked, "It's just that I don't understand a little, I want to ask Lord Xia, how did you come here?"

"Of course, it's the expenditure of the royal treasury. ”

"Oh, treasury spending. ”

As if he knew about this for the first time, Chu Yujia looked like he had suddenly realized, and asked again, "Then how did the money from my Ye King's Court treasury come from?"

The doctor surnamed Xia frowned, he didn't understand why the other party asked these questions, but he still replied truthfully: "Of course, the people came from the tax." ”

"Yes, the people came with taxes. ”

Chu Yujia smiled, glanced at King Ye Zhao Yan, and then at the doctor surnamed Xia, and said, "Since the people work tirelessly and then pay taxes to the royal court, why does the royal court not send troops to protect the people?"

"If all such things are done as you say, then what is the use of the people paying taxes to the royal court?"

"If you want me to say, wouldn't it be better to keep the money and give it to the robbers directly when they come?"

The doctor surnamed Naxia was asked and didn't speak for a long time.

But Chu Yujia's aggressiveness made him unwilling to admit defeat, swallowed his saliva, and the doctor surnamed Xia continued: "It is natural for the people of Ye to pay taxes to the royal court, and if you don't pay taxes, you are a rebellion, General Chu, as an important minister of the royal court, why did you say such inappropriate words?"

"Hahaha, well said, well said. ”

Chu Yujia looked up at Ye Wang Zhao Yan, and at this moment, Ye Wang Zhao Yan's face had completely darkened.

Not because of Chu Yujia's rudeness, but because he was angry with this scholar.

Such a superficial truth, let alone King Ye Zhao Yan, even if you ask the children in the market, you can understand it.

How can the jackals be fed?

Besides, once the jackals are fed, the jackals will grow bigger and bigger, and when they can devour you one day, how can they give you a chance to turn over?

When the time comes, people will want more than just money.

Seeing that the doctor surnamed Xia was still going to speak, and there was no need for Chu Yujia to speak, Zhao Yan, the king of Ye, sighed and said: "You, don't talk about pedantic, the main thing is that you dare to speak out in the royal court, spread the will of the orphan, and dismiss this Xia Wenwei from office, send him back to his hometown, and never be hired." ”

Without waiting for others to speak, Chu Yujia took the lead in intervening and said, "The king is wise!"
