Chapter 426: The Great Trend
These are naturally not worthy of being told by outsiders, and Meng Zhao would not tell others about his weak and weak side, so he quickly recovered his spirits and said with a smile.
"Actually, it doesn't depend on me, but on the big environment. Do you know the reason?"
Lu Lejiu followed his adoptive father Lu Zhong to obey the teachings. Cao Zhan is also the good grandson of Cao Yan's fate. Although the two have different backgrounds, they have the same extraordinary experience.
Lu Leqing's round face showed a trace of solemn expression, as if he was thinking,
"The big environment? The young master said that the general trend is irreversible. If a person wants to achieve success in it, he must follow the trend and take advantage of the situation. Only in this way can he achieve twice the result with half the effort?"
Meng Zhao did not comment. This statement cannot be wrong, but it also failed to cover all, Tao,
"For example, if today's officialdom is dark and the people are living in poverty, Cao Zhan, if you want to stay in the officialdom, you will either follow the trend and follow the current situation, or you will be self-admired and unwilling to others.
Which one would you choose?”
Cao Zhan was a little lost for a moment. After thinking for a moment, his lips trembled,
"The former is not in line with my nature. It is harder than death to join the corrupt officials and bullies who plunder the people's wealth and bad news. The latter is not what I wish.
It would be fine if I was the only one. Even if I was excluded or even framed, I could still be open and honest, but if I involved my family and relatives, I had to consider it for them.
Therefore, it is really a dilemma. If this is true, I would never enter the officialdom."
After saying that, he suddenly realized that the doubts had dispersed. He looked at Meng Zhao who was smiling at the corner of his lips, and said,
"So this is what the young master said, and I understand a little."
This is actually like the employment environment in modern society. When the computer major is popular, a large number of students will flock to this major when they are in college. When finance is also popular, another group of students will abandon computers and choose finance. This is the impact of the environment on personal ambitions and achievements.
This is the general environment that Lu Le understood, and is a way of behavior that is more in line with people's value expectations.
As for the general environment that Cao Zhan understood from Meng Zhao's example, it was actually a narrow definition after being limited by Meng Zhao, because it was limited to the officialdom by Meng Zhao from the beginning, which was the small environment in the general environment.
From the two options designated by Meng Zhao, Cao Zhan chose to abandon his official position and not do it, so he followed the trend to understand the relationship between Meng Zhao’s ambition and the overall environment.
Of course, this is actually what ordinary people think.
There is a kind of person who may not be able to do what others do, and may even go against the current trend. Being pioneers, they have always been willing to go against the will of heaven, which is not something that ordinary people can compare with.
Meng Zhao didn't care whether the two of them really understood or fake, and continued to ask.
"Okay, if you really understand, I will ask you, in this world, is it better to enter the temple or to travel far and wide?"
Now Lu Le and Cao Zhan understood, looked at each other and said in unison.
"Of course it's good to come to the officialdom."
In today's world, Dayong was the "unified" dynasty of Chixian and Shenzhou. Under his rule, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the people were rich in customs and a large population, and the power of the dynasty was invincible.
The reason why the forces represented by the nine surnames and thirteen families have the ability to slaughter the world is that they enjoy great benefits within the dynasty's market.
When Meng Zhao entered the court and entered politics, he thought that one day he would be able to worship prime ministers, and when he joined the army, he hoped that one day he would be a large army and a general. Any of them would be the most accomplishment of outstanding people.
If Meng Zhao could really do this, like Lu Le, Han Pu, and Cao Zhan, they would also get great benefits. It is not surprising that they will become the best.
Seeing that the two of them were very compatible, Meng Zhao smiled gently, shook the porcelain cup in his hand, and shook his head and said,
"You know only a limited amount. I will tell you something. Few people know about it now, but I think everyone in the world will know about it soon."
"The southern part of Dayong is located in Pengcheng, Xuzhou's capital, and Gao Yingzhong and Luan Xiaojie rebelled. Now they have more than 100,000 elite troops to rebel, causing chaos in Xuzhou, causing the three states of Yuan, Qing and Wei to be turbulent. They have not yet calmed down and are intensified."
The news hit the heads of the two of them like a bolt from the blue. Even though they were calm and calm, Cao Zhan's face changed wildly. They stood up involuntarily and almost overturned the table.
Meng Zhao glared at the two of them, and the young Jiao Xiaojiu also looked at the two of them with golden green vertical pupils. The dragon beard shook, as if responding to Meng Zhao's majesty.
"What a panic? The rebels are in Xuzhou. It's a hundred and eight thousand miles away from our north. Even if you can't fight, you can't get here. Sit down for me."
As soon as he spoke and glared, the two of them shrank their heads like quails and sat back carefully.
Lu Le thought about it, but still couldn't believe it.
"Young Master, is this true? Only two bandits have such great ability to disrupt several states and even the court did not extinguish them? This is impossible!"
Rebellion actually exists in all dynasties, but it basically does not have a climate. Only when the dragon court's energy is exhausted in the late dynasty will it set off a huge momentum and it is difficult to reverse the situation for a time.
Such as the Yellow Turban in the late Han Dynasty and Huang Chao in the late Tang Dynasty, there was almost the power of asking the sun and the moon to replace the new sky.
But today, the founding of the country has only been a hundred decades, and it can be called a prosperous Spring and Autumn Period and its national strength is strong. Now the emperor is quite wise. In addition to the beginning of his succession, there were natural disasters and man-made disasters in various places, and it has long been restored to its devastation in recent years. How can such a huge rebellion be set off? Why did the officials in the court slow to wipe it out?
Compared to Lu Le's understanding of the division of power within Dayong, Cao Zhan is more novice and is also confused.
"Yes, I heard from the young master that those two thieves could actually pull up 100,000 elite soldiers. Don't those soldiers know that rebellion will destroy the family? With the power of the two thieves, they can suppress the injustice of the 100,000 army. Are they the Grandmaster Warriors?"
Meng Zhao picked up the jade pot and poured a cup of fruit wine for the two of them, explaining,
"There is a hidden story in it, please listen to me and tell me slowly..."
As he said that, he analyzed and integrated the news he heard from Meng Hongdao and slowly revealed it.
To sum up, it is just that the Beitang royal family wanted to take local power under the central government, that is, to strengthen centralization, but the local situation was very strong, and it would affect the whole body with one move.
Perhaps, the Beitang Royal Family annoyed the Li family because of some reason, which led to the occurrence of this Xuzhou Rebellion. It was obvious that the two thieves were in chaos, but in fact, it was a test of dissatisfaction with the Beitang Royal Family initiated by the Li family.
Of course, there are some things that Meng Zhao didn't say.
For example, the deaths of the two emperors before Beitangsheng were most likely related to the other eight surnames. This kind of thing involves secrets within the eight surnames. He didn't know much about it, so he would not pay attention to it.
After his explanation, Lu Le and Cao Zhan understood that the two big thieves in love were just two pawns, even scapegoats.
