son-in-law

Chapter 614

Daxiangguo Temple, Thousand Buddha Hall.

Tang Zhen walked into the main hall, but he didn't see Fan Yu, so he couldn't help but look around.There was movement from a small room in the east, which attracted Tang Zhen's attention.At this time, "dumb" Sun Buwu put a futon in front of the door of the hut, signaling Tang Zhen to sit here, and then Sun Buwu exited the hall.

Tang Zhen sat on the futon, facing the hut, which was gloomy.Some were curious about what was in the room, but his sight was completely blocked by a white curtain.

Fan Yu's deep voice came: "How did he answer?"

The "answer" that Fan Yu wanted was the five questions that Tang Zhen asked Su Yu that day.

Tang Zhen told each other bluntly.

At this time, Fan Yu's sigh came from the room.

Even as capable as Tang Zhen, he couldn't guess the meaning of this sigh.

Tang Zhen was waiting for Fan Yu's order to arrange for Su Yu.

The Tang Clan's treatment of Su Yu can be regarded as an investment.In order to invest in the prince, Tang Qiong formulated a plan to marry the baby, and Tang Qiong passed away, and Tang Zhen came to execute it.

Two generations of princes tied their favorite (most valued) daughter (sister) with Su Yu. This investment is not insignificant.

The sound of Buddha beads sounded in the room, followed by Fan Yu's voice: [I just met Tian Selection (Xian Prince Zhao Xuan), and he said that Su Yu is the most knowledgeable among the princes, but also the least capable.It can be seen from this that he really has a Taoist heart and is not confused by everything in the world.

Through his various behaviors, I can also see that he means what he says.For example, he deliberately changed the Mohist sect into Taoism.Send some stubborn people in the church to serve in the government.In other words, he quietly removed the obstacle.This makes me very relieved.

I also heard from Ting Fang (Prince Rui Zhao Man) that Su Yu was very naughty when he was a child, and he was known as the leader of the East Street in Huazhou. Before the age of 16, he was playful, self-willed and aggressive, but suddenly enlightened after the age of 16, it was like a different person.Tingfang also thinks this son can be taught.

A gentleman is not a weapon, and the prodigal son turns around. I am very optimistic about him. 】

Tang Zhen was overjoyed first, then frowned and asked: "'A gentleman is not a weapon', can it be said by Confucius?"

Fan Yu's laughter came from behind the curtain: [Confucianism and Taoism all use the "Book of Changes" as their source. "Book of Changes" has a cloud: "What is metaphysical is called Tao, and what is metaphysical is called utensils." '

When a person becomes a tool, there is a harmony.Such as painters, poets, carpenters, etc.Although they have a skill, they are bound by the shape of the utensil, so they cannot comprehend and return to the invisible Tao.A gentleman has the world in mind, and cannot only act on one side like a "device".Where there is form, there is measure, and where there is measure, there will be fullness.Therefore, a gentleman's thinking is not a tool, a gentleman's action is not a tool, and a gentleman's measure is not a tool.

Confucius, who had been practicing for 20 years without seeing the Dao, traveled thousands of miles to find Li Er, had a conversation and was silent for three days, which can be described as a great enlightenment.Only then will there be true Confucianism.Confucius founded 'Confucianism', but he himself was enlightened by Li Er's 'Tao Xin'.It can be said that 'Confucianism' is the phase he summed up from 'Taoism'.And the gentleman in his mouth refers to kings and princes in my opinion. 】

Tang Zhen bowed his head and remained silent.

Fan Yu said again: 【Zhen'er and Zizhao (Meng Danqing) are both weapons, but you are great weapons, which are rare in a hundred years.Zhener is good at fighting, and Zizhao is good at planning.Zhen'er is like the overlord Xiang Yu, invincible in all battles.Ten years of fighting against Hu, without you, I think the Liang Dynasty would have been gone long ago.But you don't know how to govern the country, let's see how Chang'an Road is governed by you?How did you manage the family of the Tang family?

The debt is so high that you can't even afford food, and you are in danger of collapse.Without this tax reform, I really don't know how long you can hold on.The reason why Tangning refused to hand over the power for so long was because he was worried about your collapse.In other words, he is waiting for you to collapse.But he died and couldn't wait for that day.

Tangning is your fault.You had a chance to do it, but you kept hesitating.And it is Cao Yuzan who helps you make up your mind.The reason why I let Cao Yuzan listen to the government behind the curtain is because she has a way in her heart.Although she may never realize the Tao, there is a kind of person who is born with the Tao.Maybe it's talent.

Everyone in the world has divinity, spirituality, nature, humanity and animality.But God is not fair, it assigns everyone differently.As a result, some people are born like gods, while others are born like beasts.

But sometimes God is fair, regardless of one's origin, one cannot escape God's distribution.Isn't it the same for my princes.Zhang Yunlong is known as the God of War, but he is just by nature, so he is also very stupid.Zhao Zhun has human nature, but he lacks spirituality, and he is also stupid, and he is not the same as Zhang Yunlong.Zhao Yulong is spiritual, but he is also a beast.

I know almost all other general princes.If these princes are unbearable, then let Cao Yuhan continue to work.But she is not my Zhao family after all, and I am already old, so I can't stare at her for any longer.If she becomes Wu Zhao, wouldn't I hand over the country? 】

Tang Zhen still bowed his head in silence.

Fan Yu sighed: "When Wu Zhao chose the crown prince, she had considered Wu Sansi. Although she still gave up the throne to the Li family in the end, it was such a dangerous thing. And would Cao Yuzan do that? If So what if she didn't give up the seat to the Zhao family, but to the Cao family? Some people say that Cao Sheng is also my son. But I don't think he looks like me, not at all. I can't take the risk."

Fan Yu changed the subject: "After ten years of war, a large number of talented people emerged in our Liang Dynasty. I am not willing to let your generation do nothing. If your generation cannot unify China, I really don't know how long it will take Only then can we have such an opportunity. Maybe decades, maybe hundreds of years, maybe we can’t wait any longer.”

Tang Zhen raised his head and said, "Uncle wants to establish Su Yu? If that's the case, my nephew will do my best to help."

Fan Yu thought for a while: "Don't worry, I still have to meet Sheng Tang (Kang Wang Zhao Di) before making a decision."

……

Not long after Tang Zhen left, King Kang Zhao Di shook his robes and came to see him. Fan Yu didn't want to meet, so he talked through the curtain.

Fan Yu asked: Is it possible to stand?

Zhao Di said bluntly, "No."

"Why not?"

"Di believes that the Liang Dynasty is unable to fight. If we want to fight, it will be ten years later."

"Wait another ten years?" Fan Yu's voice was hoarse: "Do you have to wait for me to die? If I die, you don't have to fight anymore, right!"

Zhao Di kowtowed and shouted: "Please Fan Yu kill me! In this way, no one will persuade Fan Yu not to fight!"

……

……

"Su Jinfeng! Where are you going?"

The two sets of billiards were finally finished, and the round stone balls were painted by Su Yu. The county officials were delighted.But Su Yu said that the smell is too strong, which is not good for the mother and fetus, so it should be left for a while before playing.After finishing speaking, Su Yu prepared the car and wanted to send one of them to the palace for the Pope to play with.

Hearing this, the princess's face sank.

Seeing that the boss of the princess was not happy, Su Yu said that he would not send it away for the time being.When the princess gives birth in the future, when it is convenient for her body, she will be sent to the palace.In this way, the princess stopped being angry and went back to the house to lie down.But when he heard the sound of the horse bell, the princess got up again and looked downstairs.Seeing that Su Yu was about to leave, he yelled.

Su Yu raised his head and looked at the princess: "Just then someone came from the Duke's mansion and said that Eighteenth Brother wants to take me to see King Kang. Eighteenth Brother is in a hurry, so I have to leave quickly."

"It's my brother who called you, so go quickly. Remember to return early and don't drink too much."

Su Yu smiled, and pointed at the princess: "Take a close look."

The princess was stunned, gritted her teeth, turned and left.

Without further ado, Su Yu followed Tang Zhen to Kang Wang's mansion.For some reason, Zhao Di looked grim today, as if he had taken poison, his eyes were red and his face was green.

The guest and host were seated, and as soon as Su Yu sat down, he was asked by Zhao Di: "I heard from Peng Yu (Tang Zhenzi Peng Yu), that you proposed the strategy of 'using war to support war' to attack the Southern Jin and Shu Han. How about you?" Let’s talk about it. The Southern Jin Dynasty’s millions of soldiers guarded the natural dangers of the Yangtze River. The Shuhan Mountains and the roads are far away with 30 iron armors. How can the Liang Dynasty’s 65 soldiers be sure to win?
Let me remind you that most of the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun are still in the hands of Nan Jia.We also want Gongsunxiong to station troops in Yunzhou and Mozhou to assist Nan Jia in resisting Youlu.The Hexi Corridor is still in the hands of the Sangla people, eyeing the Central Plains covetously.The Xiongli people in the north are fighting in the grassland and are about to unify, and they have long coveted the Central Plains.At this moment, how do you say to fight? "

I don't know how to do it recently, it's like this at every turn.Before he could sit still, he was greeted with a blow.Looking at Zhao Di's vicious eyes, why do you feel that he has no good intentions?
Su Yu wondered, why did Tang Zhen tell Zhao Di those words?Could it be that the Liang Dynasty is about to go to war?Listening to Kang Wang's tone, he doesn't seem to like fighting very much.

Su Yu thought about it, it doesn't matter whether Zhao Di likes to fight or not, the important thing is that Tang Zhen has always been the main fighter.Tang Zhen is here, Su Yu will stand by Tang Zhen's side when he speaks.Just pay attention to etiquette. As for the content of the speech, there is no need to be too polite.So he asked bluntly: "I am so bold to ask King Kang, if you don't fight, will the enemy be eliminated?"

This sentence made Zhao Di's eyes turn redder, and he stared at him, "I asked you to answer my question, not to ask me!"

Tang Zhen sat aside, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and he gave Su Yu a look, as if he was saying: Continue.

Su Yu clasped his fists together: "Kang Kang calm down, if you can't discuss the subject's question clearly first, then the subject will not be able to answer Kang Wang's question. This is like a meal, even if you don't even plan to eat it, what's the point of thinking about how to cook it? "

There was silence in the room for a while, Tang Zhencai said: "Jin Feng, don't be rude. Kang Wang asked you how to fight, that is to fight, you just talk about it on this premise."

Su Yu nodded slightly: "How dare you be rude to His Highness the Prince."

Zhao Di remained silent.

Su Yu said again: 【Sending troops to fight a war is a plan and a helpless act.If it is possible to subdue others without fighting, then why would I not want to.But can the Liang Dynasty conquer others without fighting?

Since Emperor Gaozu settled in the Central Plains, the Liang Dynasty showed a steadfast posture.But after guarding for more than 100 years, the Western Regions were lost, and the Hexi Corridor was also lost. The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun have been occupied by Hu people for most of the time.How long does Liang Chao plan to defend?What is the final result?

Some people say that we should take advantage of peace to accumulate strength and strike later.But while we are accumulating strength, Sanhu is also recovering.It's better to take advantage of the Sanhu's inability to go south and fight the Shu Han and the Southern Jin.Only by unifying the two banks of the Yangtze River can we have the confidence to completely eliminate the Hu people and complete the great unification.And if you stick to it like this, there is no hope at all.

As for the question raised by His Highness, it is a purely military question, which should be answered by Kunizhiliang in the future.

In other words, the minister can give strategic ideas, but how to fight is the general's business. 】
