Chapter 281

This is probably what the comfort zone is broken. For Liu Bian, the palace may be the last destination of his soul.

Although I didn’t grow up here since I was a child, I lived here for a few years.

From a Taoist boy, I knew that he was a prince, not an orphan, but actually had his parents, and he was the emperor and queen of the Han Dynasty.

Now that I think of it, even here, there are still a group of people who are eyeing him, and people will attack him at any time. For the first time, I found that death was so close to him.

"What are your Majesty worried about?" Zhang Yu, in front of him, naturally saw the other party's thoughts. "In terms of food, let's not talk about the ingredients. The cooking is cooked by the young marshal of the Yellow Turbans in the military camp, and then their people sent it to the palace. Not to mention anything else, at least it is not as much as worrying about the food!"

"No, you shouldn't be more afraid in general?" Liu Bian immediately refuted. Although he did not deny that the food delivered by the Young Marshal of the Yellow Turban was indeed delicious.

It’s not about how good the cooking skills and ingredients are, but about the novelty of cooking techniques and seasonings, and I have never eaten them before.

"Given the other party's identity, it's normal for Your Majesty to have such concerns." Zhang Yu smiled slightly. This is the benefit of playing two roles by one person. Through different identities, the information obtained is also different.

He paused and continued, "But since the other party violently asked Your Majesty to give way after he entered the capital, it means that the other party must have a legitimate abdication process. Simply put, it is necessary to completely control the Thirteen States of the Han Dynasty and then abdicate. To put it another way, as long as the world is not controlled by him for a day, Your Majesty will naturally be safe. He may even become the lord of the revival of the Han Dynasty."

"But in the end, I have to abdicate to him... Sometimes I think, or I can abdicate, and it doesn't make any sense to continue to be frightened and scared like this. My father ascended the throne at the age of twelve, and I don't know how he felt when he came to the palace and sat on the throne. Maybe like me, he was more confused and afraid." Liu Bian sighed.

This also means that Zhang Yu has indeed gained his trust initially, otherwise he would not have said this casually.

Zhang Yu also nodded secretly, it seemed that the hints from the past few days were indeed not wasted.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to worry. What I just said is just a possibility of "at least". Judging from the current situation, the situation will only be better, not earlier, unless... unless Your Majesty deliberately opposes him, making him unable to bear it." Zhang Yu said with a little hesitation.

To be honest, he was indeed afraid that Liu Bian would gradually grow into a person with great ambition and talent like Liu Xie. He obviously had no vision or ability, but he could be fooled by other ministers and confronted Cao Cao to the end.

The first time he was injured, Cao Cao only punished the imperial physician Ji Ping. Later, he came directly to the imperial edict, and only killed all the people involved in the case, including Fu and other families involved in the case. He once killed a chicken to warn the monkey. He was worried that the relationship would be too stiff and married his two daughters to him.

Of course, from another perspective, Cao Cao also had some concerns. After all, he claimed to the public that he was the emperor to order the princes, and in a blink of an eye, he deposed himself as the emperor. Then, he would not have to attack Cao again in the end?

Before the Battle of Guandu, he was indeed patient, but finally he couldn't bear it. He first called Duke Wei and then King Wei. He didn't dare to say that he didn't have this idea. It was also possible that he had died before he could implement it. Therefore, Cao Pi inherited his idea and ascended the throne and became emperor.

History and human nature are actually similar, and they have two sides. You should be careful when reading history books.

Of course, it doesn't matter if it is not. Unless a serious historian, ordinary people only want to have fun knowing these things. Whether they know the so-called "truth" is actually not very meaningful.

"How is this possible?" Liu Bian was surprised. "The Grand Tutor wouldn't tell me that he is actually a loyal minister, right?"

"What does Your Majesty think about loyalty?" Zhang Yu pointed to the memorial on the table. "As your Majesty's side, as long as the eunuchs and palace maids offer enough price, they will become the other party's eyes and ears. Similarly, if the minister offers enough price, they will take the initiative to identify these eyes and ears. Loyalty depends more on what price you can give!"

For example, those morally noble ministers can really die for their own kings, but they actually have a value.

Their price is the record, reputation and character that they have maintained for many years, and their families in the rear.

If the party recruited cannot get the same bargaining chips, of course, it will not be able to get the other party's allegiance!

What you have to say is "psychological illness", which is an extreme personality, a person who is obsessed with the truth, and is prone to getting stubborn, and may also be an irritable personality. So when you are impulsive, you do irrational things.

For example, if I have a normal personality, the price I offer is appropriate, so the other party will weigh the trade-offs and consider it. If the price is appropriate, the price will be surrendered.

Extreme personality can easily distort your words and then turn into humiliation to him. After getting stuck in a stubborn manner, the accumulated anger and resentment burst out, and finally commits suicide in anger...

Especially the generals who fought on the battlefield all year round and had all kinds of psychological diseases. But they didn’t care about this before, and more ways to vent their venting were to find a concubine to vent. However, many generals who were away from home all year round would suffer from this psychological disease.

For example, Zhang Fei, if the war goes well, it will be fine. Once the stalemate is not over, or if he is away for a long time, he will become irritable.

Drinking and beating people are both cathartic methods, and then they become even more obsessed with negative comments.

"Can people's hearts be traded?" Liu Bian heard it for the first time.

"Isn't it possible?" Zhang Yu asked back, "For example, in this world, as long as Your Majesty gives enough food and cloth, will the rioters gather to rebel? Most of the people are unwilling to rebel, and a few sluts naturally dare not rebel. The world will not only be peaceful, but also praise you as the Lord of Revival. Isn't this all bought with money?"

If you don’t be a family, you don’t know that the cost of firewood and rice is expensive. If you run a family, you won’t have to say that a country is like this.

Liu Bian had never been exposed to this before. After all, he lived in an environment where food was rich and food was open and food was stretched out, so of course he didn't understand these things.

So while this view is novel, it is also incredible. If you think about it carefully, you will feel that it makes sense.

People can buy their hearts with money, so loyalty can also be bought with money.

But what price do you have to pay to gain the loyalty of the Young Marshal of the Yellow Turban?

Liu Bian suddenly realized that although he was the lord of the world, he was poor and careless.

The most valuable thing in his hand is probably his own throne, but this is something that the other party can get at any time.

"Tao Fu, for the first time I discovered that I am so poor." Liu Bian sighed.

"Why didn't Your Majesty try to make yourself rich in the past few years?" Zhang Yu said with a smile, "For example, cultivate your own confidant, cultivate your own power, and find ways to run some industries, have soldiers, people, money, and food, then at least Your Majesty will be qualified to negotiate, and he can protect himself no matter how bad he is."

"Please help me with the help of the Grand Tutor!" Liu Bian was stunned, and then he quickly bowed.

"I am Your Majesty's Grand Tutor, so of course I will do my best to help you. It depends on whether Your Majesty believes in me?" Zhang Yu said with a smile.
