Chapter 291 Thought confrontation
"Okay!" Liu Yu applauded: "General Wei's word is inexplicable, and it really reveals Huan Xuan's situation. So, Brother Yu asked again, who belongs to the world after Huan Xuan?"
As soon as these words were said, everyone was excited and thought that the main topic was coming, and they all turned their beautiful eyes to Wei Feng. Liu Jiao's pretty face was covered with a hint of uneasy. She had a premonition that the relationship between her brother and her husband would no longer be as ambiguous as before, but would be completely clear, which made her unable to help but worry secretly.
Liu Xingnan's eyes were full of slutty sluts in her red eyes. She wanted to see if this person would be too shameful to respond!
Wei Feng ignored Liu Xingnan's gaze and said without rushing: "In short, it is impossible for the Sima family. Sima family had the opportunity to revive after the Battle of Feishui. However, Emperor Xiaowu was not talented and ambitioned, greedy for alcohol and abolished the government, and allowed Sima Daozi to take power. He sat down and saw that his energy was exhausted. At this point, even if Sima Yi was reborn, he was helpless. It was impossible for the Gaomen A clan. The Gaomen A clan was not down-to-earth and did not know the suffering of the people. Forcing him to stand up is nothing more than another Huan Xuan. He could not escape the fate of his death. In the future, those with talent and virtue will regard themselves as a person in the world!"
To be honest, Liu Yu still had the last hope of persuading Wei Feng, just to treat it as Liu Jiao's face to give Wei Feng a chance to show his family's lintel. This is not surprising. Most people are determined not to die. Before the victory or defeat is decided, no one would think that they are doomed to fail, especially for ambitious people.
Liu Yu hoped to put Wei Feng's words step by step through reasoning, which eventually made him speechless, his confidence shook, and his sincerity came to his own command. Liu Xingnan and Liu Jiao obviously understood Liu Yu's purpose.
However, Wei Feng's answer was slick and only probabilistic but not specific, which made Liu Yu quite helpless, so he made up his mind and asked directly: "What if General Wei had the opportunity to take charge of the center in the future?"
Wei Feng frowned slightly, as if he was thinking, but then asked: "How will Brother Liu govern? Wei is not talented. He wants to ask for advice."
Liu Yu was secretly angry. He was still the old trick of pretending to be deaf and dumb, but since he had the chance to take Wei Feng as his use, he had to take out some real goods. After pondering for a moment, he said: "Those who rule should be simple and have few desires. They are strict and tidy, and do not consider the ornaments of pearls, jade, chariots, horses, and no sounds of silk, silk and bamboo in the back courtyard. All wealth and silk are in the outer palace and there is no self-contained inside. Specifically, it is to flatten the strong vassals, centralize the central government, clear the mouths, and simplify the complex, so that the people can rest and recuperate and strengthen the country's strength!"
"Yes!" Liu Xingnan nodded heavily and almost cheered!
"This..." Wei Feng showed hesitation and shook his head: "The strict and polite laws and regulations are agreed, but the simplicity and simplicity are not enough to discuss. Wei believes that the country will be stable for a long time, not to broaden its horizons, explore and innovate, be martial and aggressive, and be rich in the people. Whether it is frugal or not does not matter to the overall situation. Specifically, adhere to the principles of fairness, justice and openness within, open up channels for promotion, so that ordinary good people can also become generals and ministers, and ultimately eliminate the difference between scholars and common people, at least in terms of governance, rather than to make adjustments based on their origins.
To the outside world, we encourage going overseas to explore, travel around the world, and organize plunder and conquer the foreign barbarians, take people's wealth as their own, use war to support war, rely on war zones to obtain supplies, and do not rely too much on rear transport. Of course, to make war a plunder war without falling into the quagmire of attrition, we must maintain sufficient military advantages against the enemy, and we must not fight, and we must win in battle. This is back to the aspect of exploration and innovation. Only exploration and innovation are the driving force for forward development. Regardless of military and civilians, it is the case. It can be summarized as going global and competing!"
"Hmph! Just talk nonsense!" Liu Xingnan snorted coldly in dissatisfaction: "In ancient times, from Yao and Shun to Wen Jing, who did not govern the world with inaction and benevolence? Especially Wen Jing advocated frugality, and even the queen had a cloth and hairpin and skirt, not wearing pearls and jade, leaving behind a great reputation and was admired by honest people all along. But General, you, you dare to question the simplicity and desires. Who did the king who lost his country in ancient times lose his arrogance and extravagance?
As for the difference between the scholars and commoners you mentioned, Xingnan was born in a small family, but he had to remind you that the sage said: The king, the king, the minister, the father, the father, the son, the son, and the son. To sum up, husband, wife, brother and friend also have their own ways. Who did not govern the country in ancient times? You are unconventional, would you have to cause chaos in the world like Wang Mang?
Last point, you advocate plundering by force. Xingnan once saw you destroy Silla with your own eyes. Although massacre of cities and countries can take temporary needs, it will hurt the harmony of heaven and contrary to the way of the saints, and will never be a long-term plan. Our Middle-earth court has always been concerned about the pursuit of the world. It is justified that the country and the barbarians come to the court with sincerity!
I don’t know where you have made these evil ways. Xingnan dares to assert that if you take charge of the government one day, the people will inevitably suffer and the people will live in poverty. What my father advocates is the kingly way, the right way, and the way for long-term peace and stability!"
Liu Xingnan criticized Wei Feng for being worthless, and felt very happy. Her little face turned red due to excessive excitement, and her eyes were also rolling around. Sure enough, both her parents and aunt showed unconcealed surprise. Wang Man and Chen looked at themselves with re-examination eyes, as if they couldn't believe that they could say such a long speech, which made her even more proud. She couldn't help but hum and gently shook her head.
Liu Yu's old man comforted him, stroked his beard and nodded, but he still took into account Wei Feng's face and waved his hand and said, "Xing Nan, don't say anything wrong. How can a girl know about military and national affairs in the family? General Wei should not care too much, but some of these points are thought-provoking. It is better for General Wei to think about it carefully when he has time."
Wei Feng suddenly guessed the father and daughter singing and the intention hidden behind it. It was clearly necessary to compare the country's governance strategy with himself, and his purpose was to win over him to serve his Liu family.
Although Liu Yu was in this mind, why didn't Wei Feng want to use Liu Yu as his own? So he bowed to Liu Yu: "When I can express such an opinion at such an age, I am afraid that there are not many men in the world. However, Wei dared not agree with the past and the present. The ancients are noble in morality, but the moderns may not be.
In the prosperous era of Tang Yao, his family did not close his house and did not pick up any other relics on the road. However, since the Three Dynasties (Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties), which dynasty could do it? Why? Wei once carefully considered it, and ultimately, it was the emergence of private ownership. Tang Yao's everything returned to the public, from the clan leader to the people, and everyone only took the needs and never occupied much. Even if he was given the throne, he also carried out the real abdication method, rather than from Cao Wei and inherited to our dynasty. Tang Yao's legacy has passed down from Shun to Yu, but the concept of family and world appeared. Therefore, Yu passed the throne to the beginning of the three dynasties, and it was also the real appearance of private ownership.
In this way, private ownership is the root cause of the collapse of people's hearts. So, can we return to Tang Yao and regain the world as the public? This is impossible. During the Tang Yao period, the environment was harsh, and the people could not eat enough, and they had no spare money. Therefore, only by centralizing the distribution of grain, fishing and hunting, can the continuation of the ethnic group be ensured. As for Yu, due to the increase in the output of a large amount of materials and grain obtained from external wars, there was a surplus. Xunzi once said that when a person was born, he was evil, and this evil did not refer to evil deeds, but to possession and greed!
On the premise that basic survival is guaranteed, Yu and his descendants, as the king and Duke, and the people around them are of human nature and because of their great power, they will naturally have the idea of taking the extra surplus as their existing ones. They have both rich clothes and food, but who is willing to eat simple food? And they still want to take more, and always want to take more to gain more luxury. Since then, the world has become the king and the world has become the family, and the world is a family of one family, and it is natural for the father to die and the son to die.
Therefore, private ownership is a product of the development of the times. Although there are many disadvantages, no one can go against the trend. Even if the saints write "Spring and Autumn" and the traitors are afraid, they cannot stop people's greed from becoming increasingly. So, will they let people's hearts continue to collapse?"
Everyone in the table frowned and thoughtful in his face. Even Liu Xingnan stopped yelling. Although Wei Feng's statement was novel, if he thought about it carefully, he was indeed the case. Liu Yu was even more thoughtful, as if he understood what Wei Feng was going to say, but there was still a layer of paper, and this layer of paper could not be broken no matter how hard he poked it!
The house was silent, Wei Feng swept it lightly, and said: "During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was passed down to our dynasty through the Qin and Han Dynasties. The division of scholars and commoners pushed private ownership to the pinnacle. The Gaomen A tribe had endless greed, occupied mountains and marshes, and often occupied thousands of hectares of fertile land. The rulings held the power of life and death, and scattered the world's rare treasures. Middle and lower-class scholars took advantage of the opportunity to serve as officials and tried their best to shave three feet of the ground. Whenever the chiefs of prefectures and counties left, the local people had to collect money as gifts, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, and from the top to the bottom, all officials were not greedy, and all officials were not violent. The people lived in dire straits!
What’s ridiculous is that scholars actually claim to be pure streams, and they are proud of their elegant words and deeds and their mysterious discussions. As the saying goes, rich people have smelly wine and meat, and they have frozen bones on the road. The pure streams of scholars are based on the numerous white bones of ordinary people!
Brother Liu, you advocate frugality, and Wei believes that you can do it yourself, but in the face of the whole country, how many people can follow suit? Even if you take charge of the government in the future, you will follow your preferences, how can you distinguish whether it is true or false? Let me take a step back and say that you are honest and frugal, then, can you ensure that your descendants are also hard and simple? Let Ai say it well, who did not lose his country in ancient times, because of the arrogant and extravagant? Looking at the past and present, there are countless founding monarchs who are simple and honest, while many descendants are arrogant and extravagant and extravagant, and they often fall completely in three or five generations. How do you restrain your descendants? Is it possible to rely on the laws of the ancestors?"
"This..." Liu Yu was speechless.
