"Oh?"

Emperor Jiajing narrowed his eyes slightly. As expected of the cold-natured emperor in the history of Ming Dynasty, he could tolerate Luo Xin's ignorance, and even felt a little kind, but when Luo Xin had a different point of view from him, he felt unhappy.Huang Jin in the shadows secretly wiped his sweat, thinking to himself:
"This...is really a newborn calf not afraid of tigers!"

Luo Xin said seriously there: "My minister thinks that character has nothing to do with whether he is a general or not. Military generals also pay attention to appearance, and their speech and behavior are very elegant, while great scholars also have a wild and unruly temperament."

Emperor Jiajing's face slowly darkened, and he said slowly: "No, you have made great military exploits for the Ming Dynasty, and I also named you Yanglinhou. Since you are a great Confucian of the generation, you should read history , I have a history of 200 years in the Ming Dynasty, and [-] provinces in the south and north, can you be a Marquis at your age?"

Luo Xin thought for a while, it seems that even the descendants of the founding princes did not become Marquis at his age, because their father had not died at that time, so he shook his head and said:

"no!"

Emperor Jiajing's voice became gloomy and said: "Yes, you have made great military exploits for Da Ming and me, but your military exploits were all done in private, without the slightest order from me. Do you know what this means? Do you know what the crime is? If all the generals in the world are like you, will Daming still belong to me?"

Luo Xin didn't say anything, he knew he couldn't speak at this time, did he want to tell Emperor Jiajing that he was doing it for Daming?For the sake of Daming, can you not care about you, the emperor?

Isn't that looking for death?

Emperor Jiajing's voice was tinged with anger: "That's it, I also made you a marquis, although you made a bad start for the military, I didn't punish you, but took away Ma Fang's military power. Because I believe in your loyalty to Daming and to me. All your actions are for my Daming. But how do you trust me? You have the right to report, but when you are secretly calculated by Yan Song, You didn't think of submitting to me, but set up a big game, where do you put me?
"Confucius and Mencius", "Yanglin Hundred Chapters", and "Yanglin Poetry Collection" came out one after another, forcing me. Once you enter the dynasty in the future, do you want to use the same layout to force me? "

Luo Xin was startled. In fact, what Emperor Jiajing said was correct. He played the battle privately, which really gave the general a bad head.If all generals in the world are like this, the world will definitely be in chaos.And he did persecute Jiajing.Although everything he did was for self-protection, but from the point of view of Emperor Jiajing, Luo Xin was no different from a traitor.If this matter is in Emperor Jiajing's heart, Luo Xin will have no future, at least until Emperor Jiajing dies, and it is very possible to kill Luo Xin before Emperor Jiajing dies, for the future emperor Remove one danger.Therefore, Luo Xin hurriedly shook his head and said:
"Wei Chen dare not!"

"Don't you dare?" Emperor Jiajing's voice became icy cold, and even Luo Xin could hear a trace of murderous intent: "I've done it all, why don't you dare?"

Luo Xin was silent. Although he lowered his head, he could clearly feel the murderous intent of Emperor Jiajing. He knew that he had to speak, otherwise even if Emperor Jiajing didn't kill him now, he would kill him before he died. The emperor will not leave disasters to his descendants.

but……

How to say?
Said that he was for the people of Ming Dynasty?Are the people of Ming Dynasty more important than Jiajing?
As long as he dared to say this, Emperor Jiajing would definitely have sentenced Luo Xin to death in his heart.

Said it was for Emperor Jiajing's face?For Alatan Khan who once came to Beijing to take revenge?Doesn't that mean that Emperor Jiajing is not as good as Luo Xin?
This is definitely pulling hatred!

It is said that the layout forced Jiajing because Emperor Jiajing favored Yan Song and would not pay attention to Luo Xin's notes at all?That's why Luo Xin planned to protect himself?

Isn't this scolding Emperor Jiajing for being fatuous?

In this feudal society, the emperor must be put first, and the emperor must be wise.

but……

so?
There was no sound in the imperial study room, Luo Xin felt that the surrounding atmosphere was very oppressive, the anger and coldness from Emperor Jiajing came to his face, like a boa constrictor wrapped around his neck, if he didn't speak again, he would strangle himself to death.

"A humble official can learn from the sun and the moon with a loyal heart. Although I have never had the opportunity to meet His Majesty Tianyan, I am loyal to His Majesty."

"So, are you right?" Emperor Jiajing's voice was a little bit colder.

"Weichen is wrong!" Luo Xin said bluntly, but Emperor Jiajing was stunned and said: "Do you know that you are wrong?"

Luo Xin nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I may be a famous general or a great Confucian. But even a famous general only sees the chances of winning or losing on the battlefield, and his mind will be on the battlefield. And Wei Chen understands himself, once he thinks about war, he only thinks about war, and what he thinks of is to seize any opportunity to win. That is to say, once Wei Chen is put on the battlefield, Wei Chen is a pure general and will not consider other things Weichen believes that if you can't be a pure military general, you won't become a generation of famous generals, and famous generals don't need extra thoughts.

As for the great Confucianism, the humble minister is a pure scholar, just like a famous general. The reason why the humble minister became a great Confucianist is also because of the purity of the humble minister, the purity of learning, and he does not let other thoughts in his heart. This kind of pure learning mind can make amazing articles.Just like His Majesty's pure heart of cultivating Taoism, it is possible to achieve today's Taoist realm. "

"Childish!" Emperor Jiajing's voice had a hint of warmth: "I can't be pure, how can you be untainted? Is there anything in the Ming Dynasty that I don't need to worry about? If there are no things that worry me , I’ve learned it a long time ago.”

Luo Xin raised his head, his eyes darkened and said: "Your Majesty, I don't have such great wisdom as His Majesty. I just heard what His Majesty said, and then I realized that I was so wrong. During the war, I only wanted to relieve the king's worries. Considering His Majesty's feelings, this is the minister's fault. During the scientific examination, I never thought of persecuting Your Majesty. At that time, I just wanted to embarrass Yan Song. The situation in my chest is still too small."

Speaking of this, Luo Xin sighed and said: "Your Majesty, I can become a famous general, and I can also become a great Confucian. However, today I was awakened by His Majesty's words, and I can't become an excellent politician. The nature of the mind is what it is, and it cannot be changed by the environment.
