238. Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Seven(1/2)
But it was said that Jia Cong had prepared a set of PPT presentations at the Prince Xian's Mansion, inciting the kings to go abroad to grab money and territory; all the kings were shocked, and there was a lot of discussion. Reading at zero o'clock
Situ Pan first asked: "Where is my court?"
Jia Cong pointed to a place and drew a circle: "This is my court."
Everyone was shocked: "Am I so young?"
Jia Cong said: "Small? It's very big. Except for Russia in the north, which country was bigger than us two hundred years ago?"
Situ Pan frowned and said, "According to what you just pointed out, have the Western countries already occupied the vicinity of our capital?"
Jia Cong nodded and pointed: "Let them take over this area. This is Tianzhu, and Yingji has already taken some of it. Now they are preparing for war and want to take over the entire Tianzhu. Tsk, tsk, what a pity those golden Buddha statues and treasures are."
Someone shouted below: "We even occupy Tianzhu, aren't we afraid of Buddha's wrath?"
Jia Cong shrugged and said: "Yingjili has robbed a lot of money from Tianzhu, killed many Tianzhu people, and snatched many good people and monks from Tianzhu as slaves. The Buddha is not angry. The Buddha can only control the people who believe in Buddhism, not those who believe in Buddhism."
A man who believes in swords and guns.”
The faces of the kings were all colorful, some believed and some did not believe. Those who believed only said that the Buddha would repay them sooner or later, while unbelieving ambitions grew up like grass.
Jia Cong said again: "But if we don't have firearms, we can't defeat them with bows, arrows, swords and guns alone. I have very few of these things, and I'm not as good as them at the moment. The only way is to buy them first, and then follow their example and learn from the barbarians."
Use technology to control the barbarians."
The King of Qi couldn't help but clapped his hands: "What a great person to learn from the barbarians and learn skills to defeat the barbarians!"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Since we are going to fight, we can't be arrogant. It doesn't matter if we admit that others are stronger than us. There is a huge Russian country between the West and our country. Russia is big, but it is not strong yet; the Westerners have just occupied it.
There is no time to attack us in such places. If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to learn it quickly, why don't we wait until they have secured Tianzhu to attack us?"
The kings were immediately in an uproar: "What?"
Jia Cong said with a fake smile: "The state is greedy. Who has ever seen someone who can eat without eating? Why did Qin want to destroy the six kingdoms? Isn't it for the sake of the common people in the world? It's obviously because the six kingdoms can't defeat Qin. Besides, I
The imperial court has a vast land, rich resources, and a lot of money. Why not rob it if you can. They have already moved all the gold accumulated over thousands of years in the Great Golden Temple of the Aztec Kingdom back to the West. Why should I let me go to the inner treasury of the imperial palace? If they
When we fought, we happened to be at odds with each other, so we would have been doomed. Isn't the reason why the Five Husbands devastated China was that during the Three Kingdoms period, the population was completely depleted, and there was no one to fight against when foreign invaders invaded?" He then made another group salute, "Boy.
Having finished speaking, all the princes thought to themselves. I hope that the kings will be able to take care of the overall situation when the court will meet soon. At present, our court is surrounded by dangers. It will rise and fall when it rises. If I don't offend others, others will offend me. Don't expect the jackals to tell you.
That's the truth." After saying this, he put his hands behind his back and strode away, leaving only a fir tree stand standing in the middle and never taking it with him.
It was the third watch of the night, and Jia Cong was called out of his dream again. When he opened his eyes, Gan Lei was here again, but he didn't follow Qi Dian. Instead, he rubbed his eyes and said, "Can't you come during the day? Whatever.
Any excuse will do."
Gan Lei smiled bitterly and said, "You went to Prince Xian's palace and left after ringing the gong, and didn't care about what happened next?"
Jia Cong said dissatisfied: "Is it just a gong? Think of it as a bomb."
Gan Lei said: "I'll be there then."
"I saw it." Jia Cong yawned, "Feng Ziying and Zhong Wei are here. It's a pity that Mr. Lin and Mr. Su are not here. I have to tell them again tomorrow. I'm tired."
Gan Lei looked at him: "It doesn't seem like you have accomplished something extremely rare."
Jia Cong yawned again: "What I said is the truth. I know that all the kings are not fools. Why should you worry?"
Gan Lei shouted in a low voice: "You don't want the saint to return to court?"
Jia Cong curled his lips and said: "This kind of thing is beyond my control, and it's not something I can control, okay? I never think about useless things."
Gan Lei was startled and sighed: "What if he didn't hunt eastward?"
"Then I will ask Uncle Lin to set up a call and show him what happened today at Prince Xian's Mansion. Well, I will probably choose Lin Mansion."
Gan Lei stared at him and said, "You don't care who the emperor is."
Jia Cong said: "Mencius said that the people are the most valuable, the country is second, and the king is the least important. I deeply agree. I don't mind who is the emperor or how he got the throne. Li Shimin snatched it from him, and Situ Yan picked it up.
As long as they can benefit the country and the people, I don’t care how they got the throne! I don’t care about the private affairs of the emperor’s family. The emperor is a profession, just like a farmer, a carpenter, and a private school teacher. Farmers who can grow good food will
He is a good farmer, regardless of whether he has committed petty theft; a carpenter who can make good furniture is a good carpenter, regardless of whether he has an affair with the village king's widow; a private school teacher who can teach good students is a good teacher, even if he has never done anything in his life.
Get a scholar. Similarly, an emperor who can govern the world well is a good emperor, even if he kills his brother and imprisons his father, even if he chooses a rather mediocre son because his father is not happy to pass the throne to a capable son."
Gan Lei said: "You look down on the mediocre qualifications of a saint."
Jia Cong shook his head gently: "Liu Bang said: I am not as good as Zifang in strategizing and winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away; in controlling the country, pacifying the people, paying and feeding, and constantly supplying food, I am not as good as Xiao He; even with millions of people, I am not as good as Xiao He.
The battle must be won, the attack must be captured, I am not as good as Han Xin. All three are talented people, and I can use them, so I am the one who conquers the world. As a king, it does not matter what your qualifications are, as long as you are good at using talents. He is willing to use me, Mr. Lin
, which shows that he still has vision. However, now that he has lost the throne, I will not only care about him wholeheartedly. What I want to assist is the country, not the king."
Gan Lei clapped his hands and sighed: "It's really the lower realm of the Great God of Santan Haihui!"
"Uh, um..." Jia Cong gave a stiff smile, "That's just nonsense..." Look at Lao Gan, he didn't believe it at all.
Gan Lei looked at him again and said, "I heard that you are looking for firearm blueprints?"
Jia Cong immediately grabbed his arm: "Yes, yes! Can the general get it? I want to think about making it and sell it to the princes to fight the Westerners!"
Gan Lei smiled and said: "This is not difficult."
Jia Cong's eyes flashed: "Wow, wow, wow~~ General Gan, you are so awesome! Please help me~~"
"It's just that I can't make the decision alone." Gan Lei said, "I have to discuss matters with others."
Jia Cong nodded repeatedly: "Okay! Everything is easy to discuss!"
Gan Lei looked at him meaningfully: "Is it really easy to discuss?"
Jia Cong stretched out a slap in the face: "It's easy to discuss!"
Gan Lei smiled, gave a high five, and turned around to leave. Jia Cong blinked behind him, feeling a strange premonition.
Early the next morning, someone came to Rongguo Mansion to post a message inviting Jia Cong to the banquet. However, none of the brothers were at home. They went to Lin Hai and Su Zheng's Mansion to explain in detail what had happened yesterday. When they came back at dinner time, someone came and went, saying that there was someone there.
The young master of the Lu family and his uncle had been waiting for most of the day. Jia Huan casually asked the young master his age, and the man said that he was about seven or eight years old. Who would wait so long like Liu Bei waiting for Zhuge Liang? The brothers were immediately stunned.
Eyes open to gossip.
Jia Cong poked Jia Huan with his arm: "Hey, Mr. Huan, your brother-in-law is here!"
Jia Huan hurriedly pointed at them: "Stay still! Don't go! I'll go by myself! Don't lead my brother-in-law into trouble!"
Everyone laughed loudly! They all said that he was thick-skinned than the city walls. Jia Cong shouted loudly. He went to bring Han Quan over to play, "Isn't it great to have a brother-in-law?" Although he guessed that the sister of the child outside was probably Jia Cong.
The man in Huanyi never guessed that it was King Lu, so he went to see Mrs. Xing to invite someone.
Jia Huan did not change his clothes, but led the two boys to the south hall where the guests were waiting.
As soon as he saw the child, he knew that he was the younger brother of Princess Jian'an. The two siblings looked very much alike. Jia Huan looked at him with a smile and said, "Young master is so young, it is difficult to identify him."
When the King of Lu heard someone outside saying, "Master Huan is here," he stood up and saluted solemnly: "I've seen Mr. Jia."
Jia Huan waved his hand and said: "Don't be restrained. It's a bit too empty and boring here. Let's go outside to the study to talk and have some tea and snacks."
The big eyes of the King of Lu immediately brightened up! Jia Huan was not polite at all, he stepped forward and took his little hand and led him inside. The King of Lu also followed obediently, and his uncle walked behind with great joy, and the three of them entered the Qilaizhai together.
Because Shi Qiusheng went to see Lin Hai and Su Zheng with them today. He was still in Lixiangyuan and there was no one here. Suddenly a little girl brought tea. Jia Huan asked the child with a smile: "What do you like to eat?"
?”
The king of Lu sighed with a sullen face: "The world is in chaos, and I have no intention of eating these little things."
"Hahahaha..." Jia Huan laughed so much that he spit out his tea and pointed at his uncle, "Master Zeng?"
His uncle hurriedly stepped forward and handed over his hand: "Yes, I am the official Zeng Chun."
Jia Huan shook his head repeatedly: "Don't teach him these false and useless official expressions. No one is a fool if he can't fool people. Even if he can fool one or two people, he must be a rotten scholar. Is rotten scholar useful? In vain, people will mistakenly think that this child is hypocritical.
.”
Zeng Tong was so frightened that his face turned red and he kept saying yes.
Jia Huan touched the little head of King Lu: "Even if you are not a child, you still like to eat. Sage Kong loved meat." King Lu glanced at Zeng Cong, and Jia Cong smiled again, "Is it possible that you only like to eat meat?"
What does uncle like to eat?"
Zeng Chun said hurriedly: "You can tell the truth."
The king of Lu said: "I like to eat sugar-steamed cheese."
Jia Huan clapped his hands and said, "What a coincidence! I like to eat this too." He turned around and ordered others to make some pine and goose fat rolls. Only then did the little girl who was waiting next to him saw Jia Huan holding the young man's hand.
As soon as he walked in, he knew that this was no ordinary guest. He immediately left after hearing this. Jia Huan asked again, "Is there anything else?"
King Lu became more courageous and said: "There are also walnut cakes and water chestnut cakes."
Jia Huan high-fived again: "I love this the most!"
Someone had already prepared some of his favorite snacks outside. Hearing this, he immediately brought them in. Jia Huan first twisted a piece of walnut cake and ate it deliciously, smiling so hard that the corners of his mouth turned up: "Eating snacks is one of the great things in life."
A blessing!"
When King Lu saw him eating, he also twisted a piece and ate it. Zeng Chun did not dare to move.
After a piece of snack and two sips of tea, Jia Huan smiled and said, "What do you want, Prince Lu, to come today?"
Zeng Chun hurriedly asked: "How did you know the identity of the prince?"
Jia Huan said: "Except for the King of Lu, no seven or eight-year-old child would wait in our mansion for most of the day! The little saint cannot leave the palace. Besides, you just said that your surname is Lu."
