I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 191, Dreamer
When Xu Wei came to Longshan, he discovered that Xiangkai had established an ancient academy here, and hundreds of people followed him to study "Taiping Jing" here!
It was not easy for Xu Wei to interrupt Xiangkai's lecture when he came to ask for help, so he found a remote place and sat down.

When Xu Wei came, Xiangkai told many disciples about the contents of the "Taiping Jing"!
The content of "Taiping Jing" is extensive, and Xiangkai is more comprehensive in astronomy, geography, yin and yang, five elements, ten branches, disasters, and gods. Such ancient lectures gave Xu Wei a headache, and he could only listen to a general idea.

Probably it is to extract the idea of ​​the unity of man and nature, and add some yin-yang and five-element theories to outline an ideal social picture, but it is still Huang Lao's "doing nothing and doing everything" without changing the soup.

At the same time, some original egalitarianism is mixed in, like sharing property and earning one's own living.At the same time, the concept of retribution for good and evil was added, pointing out that only people who believe in revising the Tao can eliminate disasters and become immortals. And the Buddhist concept that good and evil are rewarded, which has not yet flourished.

Xu Wei probably wasn't interested when he heard it. The core of "doing nothing but doing everything" is the idea of ​​a small government, letting the government experience and not interfering in the affairs of the people. But Xu Wei knows that this idea has fallen behind. As a modern person, he naturally knows. , that lack of rights will be supplemented by other forces.

When the Eastern Han government played with a small government, the powerful and powerful gentry of the local elites would enlarge the power vacuum to take over the imperial court. In the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court did not care about the countryside, and the landlord gentry took over the power of the imperial court and oppressed the people.Governance by doing nothing makes the powerful bigger and stronger, and the oppressed ordinary people cannot survive in the end.

What Xu Wei is playing is a big government. As long as it can be managed, it must be managed. It is necessary to restrict the powerful gentry and protect ordinary people.

Therefore, Xiangkai's lectures had a very strong hypnotic effect on Xu Wei, and Xu Wei soon fell asleep.

When he woke up, Xiangkai's lecture was over.

Xiangkai himself was a little dissatisfied with Xu Wei's attitude. Since they all went to Longshan to recruit him, he should respect himself at least.

Xu Wei also felt that what he had done was too much, so he smirked and said: "The master's words are too profound, the younger generation is like listening to the scriptures again, and fell asleep without knowing it!"

That means you didn't understand anything!

Xiang Kai held back his anger and asked: "Shuai Qu is busy with affairs, how come he has time to come to Longshan!"

Xu Wei said: "Master, you are very knowledgeable. It is said that you have been to Luoyang City to give lectures to the emperor. I want to ask if you know someone who raises pigeons!"

"Pigeon?"

Xu Wei said: "Now the territory of the Rattan Armor Army is too big, and everyone's communication is not smooth. I heard that there are such things as flying pigeons passing letters, so I want to raise a group of pigeons!"

"Flying Pigeon Passing Letters!" Xiang Kai had really seen such a thing, but the confidentiality of sending messages like this is too poor, and it has not been popularized.

Xiang Kai still decided to tell the truth: "Flying pigeons are indeed capable of passing letters, but there are also many shortcomings. Pigeons are not birds of prey, and have many natural enemies. If they are in the city, they can still pass messages, but they are easy to be hunted and killed by natural enemies in the wild. Moreover, letters are easy to be lost, or even captured by the enemy. Pindao still suggests that Qu Shuai build more post stations, and expedite it by 4 miles. Even if you go to Shuofang, you can reach it in [-] days at most, which is no better than homing pigeons!"

Xu Wei said: "It's okay. What I like is the efficiency of the carrier pigeons. It may take less than a day to fly to Shuofang County, and I can fly back and forth in two days. As for the number of natural enemies, it's easy to solve. At worst, I release 10 carrier pigeons at once, and the secrets will be leaked." It can be solved, the big deal is that the Yin Fu Jing is used to pass the news, and most people can't decipher it, and this kind of flying pigeon is only used as an aid. Therefore, Mayi's post system is much better than that of the big man. The big man has a maximum of [-] Lijia Urgent, but in Mayi, I can already hurry up thousands of miles!"

Xiang Kai said: "Then the old man will write a letter to his old friends, asking them to send some servants who can raise pigeons!"

Xu Wei smiled and said, "Thank you, Master!"

Then Xu Wei said: "I see that there are many disciples here, Master. If they are willing, they can join my Tengjia Army. Now our Tengjia Army has occupied the entire Bingzhou, and we are still trying to resettle millions of disaster victims. There is a shortage of talents everywhere. If you are thirsty for talents, the master's disciples can do some practical things when they enter the Tengjia Army. This is not much better than talking about scriptures and Taoism on Longshan Mountain. It’s done so poorly that now the entire Han people are in dire straits and are trapped in the end of the world!”

"Qu Shuai wants to recruit them, so go. If they can become angry, I, the teacher, will be happy!" Xiang Kai is convinced, willing to recruit his disciples who are not good enough, and turn a blind eye to him, but I, Xiang Kai Celebrities in the world, you should not respectfully invite yourself to Jinyang City when you come to Longshan!What kind of thirst for talent is this!
Back then when his good friend Zhao Qi was about to leave the mountain, General He Jin came to the door three times in person, and then invited him to the General's mansion as a long history.Zhao Qi feels his sincerity, and He Jin's sincerity has become his long history.And since Zhao Qi came to the General's Mansion, the General's Mansion was crowded with people, and famous people from all over the world came to vote.

He Jin, a butcher, has already written the answer, and Lei Gong, a reckless man, can't even copy it, so Xiang Kai will be pissed to death.

But if he wanted Xiangkai to take the initiative to seek refuge with Xu Wei, he couldn't hold back, so he came to the door on his own initiative, and he was far behind his old friend Zhao Qi in terms of compulsion.

Xiang Kai thought for a while and asked, "What does Shuai Qu think of Huang Lao's words?"

Xu Weidao: "Old Huang emphasizes "doing nothing and doing everything". The core is a small government, and you can ignore it if you can, but my Tengjia Army pays attention to a big government and manages everything that can be managed. To put it bluntly, my Tengjia Army wants to manage it. The heavens govern the earth, and the air in the middle! So different ways do not conspire with each other
When Xiangkai heard that Xu Wei had denied his lifelong ideals of governing the country, Xiangkai burst into anger: "Shuai Qu really considers himself a god, so he can take care of everything! The people's grievances are not all on the Tengjia Army, so you Tengjia Army How can it last long!"

But Xu Wei sneered: "The current Han court seems to be trying to rule by doing nothing, but is it useful? As long as there are natural disasters and man-made disasters, the people will still attribute it all to His Majesty. I blame the emperor for not respecting the sky for my food production. Being bullied by corrupt officials, you want the emperor to kiss you and keep away from the virtuous ministers. Now that the Yellow River is flooding, the people can’t survive. You have to blame the emperor for not helping them. The people who are hungry will rebel and overthrow you. Faint Emperor!"

"In the Han Dynasty, the emperor's rights are unlimited, and the responsibility of the emperor is also unlimited! The people can blame the emperor for any unsatisfactory things! Under such circumstances, creating a small government can only cut off one's own brothers and feet to let the I feel uncomfortable! Look at the flood in the Yellow River now, everyone rebelled and blamed the emperor. No one said that this is a natural disaster, and it has nothing to do with His Majesty and the court. Everyone hides at home and waits for death quietly!"

Xiangkai is speechless, this is really the case in the Han Dynasty, so in order to avoid responsibility, the emperor made a scapegoat, that is, the Taiwei, the leader of the three princes. If there is any disaster in the Han Dynasty, the emperors of all dynasties will first use the Taiwei to sacrifice to heaven. If it is not enough to sacrifice another Situ, and if it is not enough to sacrifice another Sikong, there are so many big men, three lords and nine ministers, there is still no shortage of people who worship the sky!
After a long time, Xiangkai said: "This is just the words of foolish people and foolish women. I have been in and out of the palace, and I have seen the first emperor. The emperors of the Han Dynasty did not have such great power. Otherwise, the first emperor would not have relied on eunuchs to kill Liang Ji! "

"What's the use of saying this? These powerful ministers just stole the emperor's rights. In essence, he is also a part of the imperial power. Moreover, this matter is not for you to think, nor is it for the world's elites to think, but for the people of the world. I think that as long as the people of the world think that their suffering is related to the emperor, he will not be able to escape this responsibility!"

"So to create a small government is to give up the rights in your hands, and throw these rights to the local powerful and powerful gentry. And the bad things that these powerful and powerful gentry do are all attributed to the emperor, even if It’s a change of dynasty, and it’s also unlucky for the people in the royal family, and these powerful gentry and gentry can turn around and join the new dynasty, so why give up their rights in their hands! This is not to blame the world’s powerful gentry and gentry!”

Xiang Kai said dissatisfied: "Could it be that Huang Lao's rule has no advantage at all? Why did the former Han quickly recover their vitality under Huang Lao's rule!"

Xu Wei smiled and said: "That's because the first emperor unified the six countries and destroyed most of the precious things that have been passed down for thousands of years since the Warring States period. The struggle between Chu and Han completely destroyed the nobles who escaped the first emperor's destruction. With a broom, sweep the thousands of years of aristocratic system out of the land of the Han Dynasty. The nobles at the top have disappeared, and these beasts that exploited the people are gone. The people will recover so quickly, so no matter what theory, In the early decades of the Han Dynasty, the revival of the Han Dynasty could be brought about, and Huang Lao just took advantage of the times."

"But after the first few decades of the Han Dynasty, the new nobles, powerful and prosperous, began to occupy a large number of local areas. They hindered the development of the Han Dynasty regime and harmed the local people. However, the local government could not manage With these tyrannical powers, the rule of Huang Lao began to be out of date, and finally was abandoned by Emperor Wu, otherwise, with Emperor Wu's great talent, if Huang Lao can really strengthen the strength of the big man, how could Emperor Wu abandon Huang Lao!"

Xu Wei continued: "Master, your "Taiping Jing" seems to have more content than the original Huang Lao, and it should be suitable for this era, but in fact, what has been added is some dregs of gods and strange aspirations. Not only is there no change in the hand, it is more pragmatic, but the change is more talkative.

But if the world wants to develop, it depends on people who do practical things. Talking can only make things wrong. The master has studied the "Taiping Jing" so much, you have neither become an official, nor helped the people of the world to do any real things!The truth that the master has summed up without actually governing the world is nothing but fantasy! "

"Comparatively, I still appreciate the great virtuous teacher more. Although he is a failure, he has actually helped the people in Jizhou for more than ten years, and at the same time he has put in practice to solve the difficulties of the people. Although he failed, he At any rate, the great virtuous teacher has practiced it! I have come out of a failed one, and I have summed up some failed experiences.

It's just a pity that you didn't think about improving the "Taiping Jing" on the basis of the failure experience of the great virtuous teacher, and wasted the experience brought by the lives of the great virtuous teacher and millions of people! "

Xiang Kai said in disbelief: "Whoever said we didn't make a conclusion, it's because we saw the rebellion of the million yellow scarves of the great virtuous teacher, and they were still wiped out by the big man. That's why we realized that it is too difficult to defeat the big man head-on on the battlefield. The strength of the Yellow Turban Army can't overthrow the world of the big man. That's why we gave up the road of rebellion.

Instead, he thought of pulling Emperor Ling down from the throne through a coup and replacing him with an emperor who was willing to implement the Huang-Lao doctrine, but it failed!Why do you say that only great virtuous teachers have practiced it, and this old man has not practiced it! "

Xu Wei smiled and said: "Master, you have said that this is a coup d'état! Even if Emperor Ling was really pulled down by you, replacing him with another emperor will not change the current big man, and it is even more impossible to implement the so-called yellow king." The old ruled the world. Even if the emperor learned the knowledge of Huang Lao!"

"Impossible!" Xiang Kai didn't believe it!

But Xu Wei said: "I just want to say one thing. Now the civil and military studies of the Manchu Dynasty are all Confucian Six Classics, and they will just watch you take their place. That's why I said that even if you succeed in the coup, you will set up a coup." The emperor and the others will not give in, but quickly choose an emperor suitable for them to wipe out your rebellion! Master, you should feel lucky, if you really kill the emperor, it is the fate of the master, and the master will not It may be possible to teach disciples on Longshan with leisure like now."

"They promised me, how could they go back on it! And our decades of friendship, how could they kill me!" Xiang Kai still couldn't believe it.The decades of friendship between them would be so fragile!
Xu Wei said: "That's good! Even if the emperor wants to use Huang Lao to govern the country as you wish, how many disciples do you have? How many famous scholars in the world are there who learn from Huang Lao? There are more than 2 officials in the Han Dynasty. I'm afraid there are more than a hundred thousand people, but how many of you are there?"

Xiang Kai was completely speechless now, he really hadn't thought of this.

There are no more than a thousand people in the world who study Huang-Lao studies, and it is impossible to beat Confucianism. Not to mention the famous scholars in the world, they are bullying you!
It is said that there are more than 3 imperial students in Luoyang City, how can Xiangkai fight against such a large group of Confucian students.

So this kind of daydreamer is the worst thing. The so-called plan they made is not realistic at all, full of loopholes!
