Great Leaving the Night's Watch

Chapter 17 Prince Lu Guang

Shi Bin said humbly: "I know a thing or two, and I am laughing at you. Then you say, why is Lu Ju unhappy after succeeding to the throne?"

Mr. Lu said: "Because he spends every day in fear. The brilliance of Emperor Chai Rong is not inferior to any famous emperor. Lu Ju knows that it is impossible to defeat him. He knows even more, His intelligence is mediocre, and he is not capable of governing such a large country. In terms of leading troops and fighting, he is far inferior to the military genius of the Great Emperor. He is afraid that if something goes wrong, it will shame the Lu clan and make the country suffer! "

Shi Bin took a sip of his wine and said, "It's really not easy for a monarch to reflect on himself to this extent. Sitting on the seat where all the people worship, he can be neither arrogant nor arrogant, arrogant or impetuous. If he hadn't been born In the era of war, such a monarch is definitely a blessing for all people!"

Mr. Lu's voice was a little choked up: "Oh, if he could hear Brother Shi give him such a high evaluation, I guess he would be able to smile at Jiuquan. But he left with regret. Fate is not always so generous. Fate He was given the throne that countless people wanted, he was given good moral character, and he was given a heart of loving the people, but he was not given a chance to govern the country in a peaceful age! The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun that were taken back were taken away by Jing Guo again!"

Shi Bin sighed, and said, "Ah, in times of war, we need an emperor who is arbitrary and talented. Although the story of the brotherhood of Emperor Li Shimin's Xuanwu sect is not good to hear, it's none of the common people's business? If he manages the country well, makes the people's lives rich, and makes foreign enemies dare not bully him, then he is an emperor through the ages, and people will always worship him! Otherwise, if the moral character is as excellent as Wei Sheng and filial piety, but the people under the rule are full of complaints and sorrows are everywhere, then He's still not a good emperor!"

He took a sip of his wine and said, "It seems that the emperor's family has no less troubles than ordinary people. Especially a responsible emperor like Lu."

"Brother Shi's high-sounding remarks have never been heard before. Today, I am very happy and convinced. The sage said that if three of us are together, there must be my teacher. Today I am sure that this statement is true!" Mr. Lu was so excited that he stood up and told Shi Bin made a bow and saluted.

"Don't dare, talk nonsense, and laugh at Dafang's family, I'm so ashamed. Then what happened later?" Shi Bin hurriedly returned the courtesy.

After taking his seat, Mr. Lu stared blankly into the distance, and said melancholy: "General Yanyun has no face to face the people of the country. He brought the defeated soldiers back to the city of Biandu, bowed down to the soldiers and the people on the city wall, and wailed to the sky:' The crime is absolutely dead! The minister is ashamed to the emperor!' After he finished speaking, he swung his sword to commit suicide, and the soldiers and people all over the city wept. People know that the enemy is too strong and has ten times as many troops as him. No one can defend him. .But someone has to be responsible for the loss of the land, and he chose to take that responsibility."

As Mr. Lu spoke, he couldn't help but burst into tears, obviously extremely sad.

Shi Bin was amazed.Telling the story, telling the story, did not move the audience to tears, but moved myself to tears first.This Mr. Lu is really strange.

Mr. Lu wiped away his tears, and then said: "Since a person is dead, the emperor will not implicate his family. The emperor fell ill within a few days, and the huge guilt and guilt made him feel so painful. He endured every day. With a sick body, he went to the emperor's sacrificial temple to confess his sins, saying that he was incompetent, and lost the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, which the emperor painstakingly achieved, exhausted, and killed and injured countless soldiers. The emperor dreamed every night, seeing the guard of Yanyun I will tell you about the tragedy of Yanyun. The people were displaced and slaughtered. The emperor was seriously ill, weeping for blood, and the medicine and stones were useless. Ancestors, I am ashamed of the people of Li, and I have no face under the nine springs to see the dead people. Today, I will change the name of the Dazhou Kingdom to Dali! The Dazhou will never come back, I will not die, and I will not enter the Taimiao! The descendants of future generations, You should always remember the shame of today, my oath! Saying this, he vomited blood and collapsed, death will not rest in peace.'”

Li Shishi shed tears and said: "Compared with other emperors, this emperor has a face, is responsible, and has people in his heart."

Shi Bin wiped away the tears that spewed out, and murmured: "It turns out that Da Li Dynasty came here like this. Alas, if we change to a shameless emperor, he will definitely find 1 excuses for his failure, and put the blame on him." It's all on others. And this Emperor Lu is just the one who is willing to save face, be responsible, and take responsibility, so he is suffering in life, and after death, he is willing to take the blame for the times."

Mr. Lu said: "The emperor once told Lu that if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. A monarch who refuses to be responsible for the country deserves a miserable death, so he doesn't sympathize with people like Qin II."

Shi Bin said: "I don't sympathize with a monarch like Qin Er Shi either. You have to bear that responsibility when you sit in that position. Searching for people's fat and people's anointing only cares about enjoying themselves, regardless of whether the people live or die, and finally lose their heads. This is the same as doing business. The high payout is also high, so there is nothing to say. But Lu Ju, oh, I mean the emperor Taizu of the Dali Dynasty, he is much stronger than Qin Ershi. It’s just bad luck. into troubled times."

"That's right... After Lu Ju's death, the prince Lu Xuan succeeded to the throne. He vowed to avenge his shame and regain Yanyun, but he fought seven times in a row to no avail, and offended both of the two powerful countries. Later, he was also depressed. In the end. Later, the emperors of all dynasties took it as their mission to recapture Yanyun, but up to the present day, the emperor still...was unable to return to heaven. Not only was he unable to defeat the country, but because of taxation year after year, the country also caused internal and external troubles in Dali. Disasters continue and people change everywhere. Overseas, Liang Guo, Jing Guo, Huantu, Chulan, Tiantu, and other countries are eyeing each other, wanting to carve up the great separation. The emperor is disabled and weak, and his qualifications are mediocre, so he can't distinguish between loyal and evil. Among the high-ranking officials, which one is Yi Yu? The hypocrisy seems loyal, and the treachery seems good. Those treacherous ministers with outstanding abilities dare not make mistakes in front of monarchs of the level of Emperor Li Shimin and Emperor Chai Rong. However, When encountering a mediocre lord, each of them will use their ability to deceive the king, and the world will be in chaos."

Shi Bin waved his hand and said: "There is only one solution to this matter. Forget it, let's not talk about it. If you talk too much, you should violate the taboo of the court."

Mr. Lu shook his hand and said: "Brother Shi, do you want to say that the abdication system in the Yao, Shun and Yu eras should be restored? To tell you the truth, I have thought about this too, but it is not enough to go back to the past. Today is different from the past. Wang Mang also engaged in retro-retro, and ended up ruining his reputation. However, if he doesn’t go back-to-retro, in case the succeeding emperor isn’t a genius…”

Shi Bin said: "Since you have thought about this level, I will not hide it from you. In the imperial power system, there is a fatal flaw, that is, it is impossible to produce a wise monarch from generation to generation, let alone a generation from generation to generation. Emperors like Li Shimin and Chai Rong are the best wise monarchs. And every time the dynasty changes, the new landlord replaces the old landlord, and the old contradictions still remain. Of course, there must be some relaxation in the early days, so that the common people feel that they are different from the previous dynasties. Therefore, the measures of reducing taxes and saving people's resources came. However, after a while, the rubbish trick of land annexation came again, and finally at the end of the dynasty, it was the ending of "the rich are connected with fields, and the poor have no place to stand". , go round and round. The way to crack it is that the imperial power system should be reformed."

Mr. Lu's eyes lit up, he held his hands tightly, and asked anxiously: "How to change it? Please enlighten me!"

Master Li also listened with great interest.She thought to herself, how does my brother know so much knowledge?He is capable of fighting and has a lot of knowledge. He really lives up to his name, with both civil and military skills.

She found herself adoring him more and more.

Shi Bin pondered: "2000 years ago, the slavery society was far superior to the primitive society. The slaves were captured and no longer eaten or killed, but given a chance to live. Although the life was miserable and tiring, it was also progress. And the feudal imperial power system 1000 years ago was far superior to the slave system. But now the feudal imperial power system is deeply ill, and it will not be easily upgraded. It will have to go through thousands of years of evolution to evolve to a more advanced form."

Mr. Lu was about to burst into flames. He asked anxiously, "What does that look like? Brother Shi, ah no, Mr. Shi, please enlighten me!"
