Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1869

"The world is still uncertain, father must take care of his health!" Mu Jing's eyes were filled with sadness, and he said in a low voice: "I still hope that father can see the prosperous age of Ming Dynasty come in the future!"

Cai Yong is not young anymore. Looking at this era, with an average age of 30 to [-], he is already a very old man.

His health has not been very good in recent years.

To be able to hold on, on the one hand, the Ming court paid more attention to the development of medicine. There are medical schools and medical departments in the territory, and they take care of the bodies of some important officials in every possible way.

Cai Yong is like a giant panda, not a monthly physical examination, but once every ten days, and there will be a special doctor to recuperate his body.

But birth, old age, sickness and death are iron rules that cannot be changed.

Cai Yong, who is getting older and older, will let go one day sooner or later, but sometimes the elderly can hold on for a longer time, the key is to see if they are willing to hold on.

If people have the support of ideas in their hearts, sometimes they can really survive than more people.

Now that Cai Yong sees the end of the troubled times, maybe if the breath in his heart dissipates, his body will collapse, so Mu Jing has no choice but to make a cake for him.

"Father supported Daming back then, not only because he wanted to see Daming end this troubled world, but also because he hoped that Daming could do better than the Han Dynasty!" Mu Jing said indifferently: "If father can't see this day, father Are you willing?"

"It's really not reconciled!"

Cai Yong grinned, and he took a deep look at Mujing again: "I believed in your father many years ago, but in the end your father let me down. A hero is sad to be a beauty. He could have controlled the world, but it's a pity It’s over, the game is missing, and the whole game is lost!”

He had some nostalgia for the past, and said: "Later, I believed in you. When you were in Taixue, I didn't like you, but in the end I let Zhaoji marry you. For the sake of the world, for the great Han court, I made a move." If you make a choice, you have to bear the consequences, and from then on, you and I have been tied together!"

He sighed: "I was responsible for the prince's teacher because of myself, and then I realized that I was responsible for the Han Dynasty, but in this world, after all, it is more important than the Han Dynasty!"

"Cao Mengde took the emperor to command the princes, and walked out an unusual path, but the Han thief is still a Han thief, but you take the edge of the sword, openly oppose the Han Dynasty, become a king and establish a dynasty, become the emperor with one move, and divide the world!"

He suddenly smiled: "If I used to be me, I would be at odds with you, but in the end I still entered the Ming court and became a Ming minister. Sometimes I can't understand my choice, but I always have to know, Is your choice wrong!"

His face became resolute and determined: "Your Majesty, what you said is right. The invisible Daming has created a prosperous age. How can I be reconciled to this old man? Even if I die, I can't close my eyes. would die so easily!"

He added another sentence: "This old man not only wants to see if this prosperous age will come, but also wants to know whether His Majesty is a qualified His Majesty, the Lord of the World, the Ninth Five-Year Honor, that is not easy to be!"

"Is it okay to be an emperor? Since I am an emperor, let the world see that I am an emperor who can give them a good life!" Mu Jing said confidently.

"That minister, wait and see!"

After speaking, he bowed his hands and bowed, and then stepped back.

"If the old man doesn't provoke him, he really doesn't care about his body!" Mu Jing looked at his back, shook his head, and sighed.

Some people are very sloppy.

Cai Yong is one of these people.

"His Majesty!"

At this time Xu Shu hurried in, saluted first, and then said: "Cai Shenzheng is going to prison!"

"Let him go!"

Mu Jing smiled and said: "He wants to chat with Yang Biao, let them chat, maybe we can solve a big problem for us!"

"What about Xun Yu?"

Xu Shu asked.

"Has the Central Plains been captured?" Mu Jing pondered for a while, but instead of answering this question, he asked another question.

"Zhang Liao's departure went smoothly. At present, no one can stop our soldiers and horses. Wherever they go, they open the city gates and surrender. There are a few cities that want to show toughness. As a result, The artillery army pushed up, and after a few shots, no one dared to stop Wang Shi from going out to dominate the world. Now, Yanzhou and Yuzhou have basically been taken, and there are still some turmoil in the counties, but under the suppression of troops, they can It's stable, but we just want to manage it, we can't do it, this is the business of the Zhengshitang!"

"The Political Affairs Hall has sent people down to assess the officials!"

Mu Jing thought for a while, and said: "It is unrealistic to dismiss people on a large scale. We can't allow the people to be in turmoil during the alternation of power. It's best to get through this difficult time peacefully!"

"In this way, the old system will increase its strength. If we want to implement the New Deal, there must be obstacles!" What Xu Shu meant was that he hoped for a general cleaning, so that the power of the New Deal can be implemented directly, and a lot of troubles can be reduced in the future.

"Yuan Zhi, why does the New Deal exist?" Mu Jing asked back.

"This one……"

"You have forgotten it yourself!" Mu Jing smiled, and then said: "The reason why we implemented the New Deal is not to be new and different, nor to increase the influence of the imperial court, but to have a better system. , to make people’s lives better, if this principle is violated, then the New Deal also needs to be changed, or even overthrown!”

"It's Chen Menglang!"

Xu Shu's complexion changed slightly, and then he handed over his hands and apologized.

"It's okay!"

Mu Jing waved his hand and said, "You are still young and can still make mistakes, but in the future, you have to remember where the bottom line is. We promote the development of the New Deal, and we will inevitably face more resistance in the future. What you have to face, you have to face There are still many attacks on the right, if you can't hold your own bottom line, you will be lost, I hope you can be sober all the time, and you can understand why you want to promote the development of the New Deal!"

He is very optimistic about Xu Shu. Not only is he capable in the military, he is also a very talented person in politics. He will not be able to escape if he becomes a cabinet minister in the future.

And Mujing needs him to promote the development of the whole New Deal.

Unifying the world is just the beginning.

change the times.

This is Mujing's mission.

"Your Majesty, you should bear in mind His Majesty's instructions today!" Xu Shu said seriously.

Mu Jing smiled, returned to the topic, and said: "The Central Plains has been won, so the Yingchuan family is not so important. Xun Yu, it's a pity to kill it, and it's not justified not to kill it..."

He still appreciates Wang Zuozhi's talent. Besides, the Great Ming Dynasty Hall itself needs some strength to balance it. With the unification of the world, the future battlefield will be on top of the Great Ming Dynasty Hall.

He can control the court, but he cannot restrict the court. One word is not advisable. Everyone makes mistakes, and he will too. If he wants to promote the arrival of a new era, he must learn how to employ people.

As an emperor, employing talents is a kind of knowledge that needs to be studied continuously.

"Xun Wenruo's bones are still very hard!" Xu Shu thought for a while and said, "If you don't kill him and want to use him, your Majesty may not make him surrender!"

"I'm not really worried about that!"

Mu Jing shrugged: "His weakness is too obvious. A person who claims to be righteous has too many burdens. There will always be a way to make him submit. As for making him surrender, it is not necessary. What I want is his ability, not him. loyalty!"

Even if he is the emperor, it is impossible for everyone to be loyal. The loyal ones are the direct lineage, but if you want to rule the world, relying on the direct lineage is not enough. You must use the people who should be used, even if you hate yourself.

"Actually, Zhong Yuanchang is not bad either!" Xu Shu said, "I think he is available!"

"he?"

Mu Jing sneered: "Back then he was very slippery!"

It's not that he has never wooed Zhong Yao, but Zhong Yao not only rejected him back then, but also used his ingenuity to win him over. In terms of wisdom, talent, and courage, Zhong Yao was a very powerful person.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to get out of Yudu City back then.

"This time is different from the past!"

Xu Shu said: "He also has nowhere to go!"

"Let it dry first!"

Mu Jing waved his hand: "Even if they want to use it, it's not now. Their minds are uncertain now, and maybe they still think that there is a chance to revive the Han Dynasty, and releasing it would be a disturbance. Let's talk about them when the world is stable. Think about it!"

He asked again: "What about Jiangdong?"

"Zhang Zibu was captured without a fight, but Sun Zhongmou is a talented person. He suppressed Jiangdong for us in a short period of time. With the suppression of Zhuge Liang and Gan Ning's troops, all counties surrendered one after another!"

Xu Shu said: "The Political Affairs Hall has already sent people to take over Jiangdong, and I heard it went well. In addition, the Jiangdong family has also shut down. It seems very low-key. No matter what time it is, they seem to be very cooperative!"

"Dogs can't change eating shit!"

Mu Jing shook his head: "What's the matter with them, sooner or later something will happen!"

"But now they are very peaceful. We can't do anything to them because of our own guesses. This will directly detonate the turmoil in Jiangdong, and it will not help us to calm Jiangdong!"

Xu Shu said.

"It's not a problem to solve them, there is no need to fight!" Mu Jing said: "Send someone to announce Gu Yong to enter the court, and serve as the left servant of the household department, and then promote Lu Xun to be the head of the six-door Jiangdong shop!"

"Your Majesty is trying to divide them?"

Xu Shu frowned: "None of them are stupid people, can they not see such a simple scheme?"

"Is it useful to see it!"

Mu Jing sneered: "And I'm going to let them see it. This is a conspiracy. Don't think that Gu Lu is a family. Among the four great families, it doesn't matter whether it is the Gu family or the Lu family, including the declining Yu family and the Wei family. , that's all selfish, and they dare not fight for power, so how can they have any single-mindedness!"

"Your Majesty is brilliant!"

Xu Shu suddenly understood Mu Jing's approach. Indeed, it's no wonder that the power placed on the surface is not moved. Gu Yong and Lu Xun can't be single-minded no matter what.

"Unification of the world, great chaos will lead to great rule. In the past, the county system must be abolished, and it is inevitable to change to the state and county system. You should remind Zhaoming Pavilion of this matter, and there should be a plan!"

Mujing said.

"Zhaoming Pavilion is also very busy now, it may not exist in this world, things need to be done one by one, there is no rush!" Xu Shu said.

"It's just an attitude!"

Mu Jing smiled: "If I don't open my mouth, there's no pressure on them!"

"I'm afraid that Hu Xiangsheng will eat His Majesty's heart at this time!"

"A thousand miles away, he will come whenever he can. At this time, I won't squeeze his labor force. I won't squeeze anyone else. Why should I come up with this plan myself!" Mu Jing said with a sneer.

Xu Shu didn't dare to speak for a while.

He didn't dare to cling to these words. After all, it's not a big deal for Mu Jing and Hu Zhao to slap the table and quarrel, but they don't have the status to get involved.

Mujing is sometimes very talkative, but now he is the Son of Heaven, the ruler of the world, even if he doesn't care, there are still many people who care about the word "rules". Disrespecting the Son of Heaven is a serious crime.

"What about the north?"

Mujing didn't go on talking about Jiangdong, he continued to ask.

"The north is a bit complicated!"

Xu Shu said: "Zhao Zilong didn't hand over his military power, not because he wants to resist us, but because he is fighting Xianbei, and the fight is in full swing!"

"When did this happen?"

"Almost half a month!"

"How is the situation?"

"Xianbei is powerful, and Wuhuan and other nomads have mixed in, intending to eat Youzhou, but Zhao Zilong is worthy of being a hero who can kill us from our encirclement. With his small number of troops and geographical advantages, They dragged them to Daijun abruptly, and didn't let them go south half a step!"

Xu Shu said: "Xianbei, Wuhuan and other tribes know that our Central Plains is undergoing a great change of power, so they go south without fear, eat Youzhou, and then prepare to confront us. If Zhao Yun didn't block this, Youzhou would definitely Eaten by them!",

"I haven't settled accounts with them yet, they are quite courageous!"

Mu Jing gritted his teeth.

In fact, the Ming army does not have the strength to go north now, the Central Plains is uncertain, and the backyard is unstable. If they go north, the troubled times that have just ended may be in turmoil again.

This is like the Weishui alliance in the Tang Dynasty in history. It's not that they don't want to fight, but because the internal stability is not stable enough, it can't be fought at all.

Govern the world, don't be impulsive.

Blood energy alone cannot cure the world.

To put it bluntly, if Mu Jing dares to go to war, the world will immediately be in turmoil. After all, it is not just one or two people who are ready to move. It is reasonable to say that the outside must be settled.

"Your Majesty, if Youzhou is lost, it will be a heavy blow to our Ming court!"

Xu Shu said.

"But under the current situation, it is impossible for me to mobilize troops to go north. To put it bluntly, if I dare to mobilize troops, some people will rebel immediately. We have sacrificed so much, and the chaotic world is over. This world cannot be chaotic!"

Mu Jing shook his head.

Xu Shu was also helpless.

"Let's gamble!" Mu Jing asked, "Lu Fengxian is not dead yet!"

Lu Bu is also considered a talent. After fighting for so many years, it is good luck to be able to survive until now instead of being killed by Cao Cao as in history.

"Alive!"

"Let him choose a group of cavalry, give him food and grass, let him go north, and tell him that if he wins the battle, I will set him free. As long as he doesn't rebel in the future, I can ignore the past!"

This is a risky move for Mu Jing, but it's better than no move, no matter what, he can't see the alien race entering Youzhou and remain indifferent.
