Chapter 72 Ji Chang wants to become a disciple.

Li Yuan glanced at Ji Chang and said with a half-smile:

"Lao Ji, as a minister, you asked Chengtang how Jiangshan was doing. Aren't you afraid that if the news spread, someone would say that you were disobedient?"

Ji Chang smiled awkwardly, and he quickly covered it up and said:

"I think the world is at peace now, so I would like to ask you, Sir, is it a prosperous dynasty now? Li

Yuan said calmly:

"Although the city is now full of flowers, it already looks like the building is about to collapse."

He really knows!

I was shocked in my heart.

Will he choose to assist Xiqi?

I am a little worried. I am afraid that

Li Yuan will steal Jiang Ziya's position. When

Ji Chang saw Li Yuan, he said that Tang You's building was about to collapse. , couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

However, his face did not show any joy. Instead, he pretended to be confused and asked:

"Now that the sea is clear and the rivers are clear, and the world is at peace, how can you say that there are buildings in Tang Jiangshan that are about to collapse?"

"Because of the feudal vassal system."Li Yuan said lightly

"System of feudal princes?"Chang looked surprised.

He originally thought that Li Yuan would say that King Zhou was benevolent, which would lead to the end of time, but he never expected that Li Yuan would reveal this reason.

"Hasn’t it been a feudal system since ancient times? How could Chengtang’s decline be related to the system?"Ji Chang asked Li Yuan in confusion.

I also didn't understand why Li Yuan said that the system of enfeoffment of vassals would lead to the collapse of the Chengtang Building.

Doesn't it seem to matter?

Li Yuan saw everyone's confused looks, He couldn't help but smile slightly:

"The system of enfeoffing vassals had great drawbacks, because the vassals had their own armies, collected taxes, and appointed officials in their own territories. It is only necessary to pay a portion of the tax revenue every year. This leads to the princes relying on their own troops and the king's control over the princes is not strong.……"

Seeing Li Yuan saying that the princes support their troops and respect themselves, Ji Chang couldn't help but show a trace of embarrassment on his face. Isn't he just a great prince who supports his troops and respects himself?

Didn't you mean to ridicule me?

"When the imperial court is powerful, this system can maintain a balance among the princes of all parties, and it will not affect anything. But once King Zhou's moral character fails and the control of the princes becomes loose, you think those princes will still obey the court. Order?"

Li Yuan looked into Ji Chang's eyes and said calmly:

"If we encounter some powerful careerists who raise their arms, won’t this flowery country wither and fall in an instant?"

When Ji Chang saw Li Yuan saying this, he was only staring at him, and the embarrassment on his face became even more intense.

Could it be that your husband saw something?

However, Ji Chang admired Li Yuan even more.

Li Yuan's words actually analyzed the shortcomings of the vassal system in detail. After listening to it, Ji Chang also felt that there were big problems with this system. At this moment, I couldn't help but secretly admire Li Yuan's talent. He just heard that Li Yuan When Yuan said that the collapse of the Chengtang Building was due to the enfeoffment system, he was a little dissatisfied. But now I realize that Li Yuan has directly seen through the essence of the decline of the imperial court caused by the enfeoffment system!

This man is really wise and talented.

"The enfeoffment of princes has been a rule since ancient times. If the world is not established by enfeoffment, how can the world be governed?"Ji Chang asked Li Yuan half doubtfully and half tentatively.

I shook my head and said:

"There is no solution to this matter. Only by letting every king practice more benevolence, be strict with himself, be lenient to others, and obey the will of heaven can the long-term peace of the country be achieved. Li

Yuan shook his head lightly and said:

"The king should indeed be strict with himself, but it is not unreasonable to be too feudal."

Ji Chang looked excited.

But I asked unconvinced:"How to explain it?"

Li Yuan:

"Change the system of enfeoffed vassals into a feudal system with centralization of power by the imperial court.……"

Li Yuan briefly introduced the characteristics of the feudal system, which immediately stunned me. Ji Chang was so excited that his face flushed and he danced.

He shouted in his heart that he had found a way to unify all generations.

Ji Chang couldn't bear it anymore, stood up quickly, and begged Li Yuan sincerely:

"Ji Chang admired his great talent and asked him to come with me to Xiqi. Ji Chang was willing to become his teacher and listen to his teachings as a disciple."

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be shocked.

Didn't you want to hire Li Yuan as the prime minister?

Now he has directly become his disciple!

Ji Chang is the future King Wen. Even if the saint sees it, he can only treat him as an equal.

Now Ji Chang actually Wanting to worship Li Yuan as his teacher, if word spreads, it will definitely shock the world.

I wonder what Li Yuan will choose?

I stared at Li Yuan's reaction.

When Li Yuan saw that Ji Chang wanted to worship him as his teacher, Li Yuan immediately shook his head and said:

"If you are not interested, I will not accept disciples, nor will I serve as an official."

Ji Chang begged bitterly:"I am sincere, and I hope that my husband will fulfill my wish."

Li Yuan was unmoved:

"You don't have to beg. Accepting a disciple or becoming an official is too troublesome and I will never agree."

Ji Chang saw that Li Yuan never agreed, with indescribable disappointment and disappointment on his face. When

Ji Chang's attendant San Yisheng saw this, he immediately advised Li Yuan with a heartbroken look on his face:

"Sir, with such a talent, wouldn’t it be a pity if he didn’t come forward to benefit Dawn?"

Li Yuan smiled faintly:

"What's the pity? The world would function just as well without everyone, but some things would come later."

Suddenly, Li Yuan felt a movement from the fishing rod in his hand.

He immediately lifted the fishing rod and saw a fat and tumbling caterpillar being lifted out.

This caterpillar was a foot long, with a snow-white body, thousands of legs on its belly, and a tail on its back. It has six pairs of wings as thin as cicada wings, and a golden sharp horn on its head, which is holding the straight hook on the fishing line.

"Finally caught you!"Li Yuan saw the caterpillar and smiled slightly.

"Hey, how did the kid catch a caterpillar from the pond, and he still used a straight hook?"I had a strange look on my face.

Although the caterpillar has no spiritual power, it looks very strange. How come it looks a bit like a prehistoric alien species?

Li Yuan took off the caterpillar, handed it to Shaoyao, and ordered:"Take it to the backyard, He was first locked up with the parrot."

After giving the instructions, he replied to me:

"I am willing to fish, I will not force it."

"My little friend is open-minded!"I admired.

Whatever happens, this is the true Taoist immortal.

I couldn't help but have the idea of ​​accepting a disciple again.

Ji Chang waited for Li Yuan to put away the fishing rod, and then begged for a while, hoping that Li Yuan could accept him as a disciple.

Finally , he saw that Li Yuan could not be persuaded, and after staying for a while, he left with a look of regret.

However, he did not give up. He decided to come to ask Li Yuan every day in the future. As long as he continued to express his sincerity, Li Yuan He would definitely be moved by his sincerity.

So, Ji Chang would visit Li Yuan every day from now on, which eventually annoyed Li Yuan so much that Li Yuan had no choice but to order Yang Huai to ban Ji Chang from entering.

Ji Chang would see Li Yuan but not him. , still unwilling to give up, he actually stood outside the door and waited every day, hoping to impress Li Yuan.

Unfortunately, his sincerity was destined to fail.

Li Yuan was not Jiang Ziya or Zhuge Liang, and would not deliberately test Ji Chang's sincerity.

He If you say you won't accept disciples or serve as officials, you won't change.
