Chapter 372: Outer King and Inner Sage
Speaking of which, this was not the first time that Yu Wenjun was attacked by Yunfeng in the chest, but this time the feeling was the most profound. Although Jiankang in early April was not hot, it was definitely not cold. His heavy winter clothes had long been taken off, and Yu Wenjun also
No exception. He was only wearing a thin slim-fitting Hufu, and the undergarment was also a thin piece of cloth. How could he withstand such a strong stimulation?
Yunfeng thought that her secret behavior was caught by Xun Guanniang, which made her cheeks heat up. The unforgettable feeling of having Yunfeng peek into her clothes a few days ago was still vivid in her mind, as if it had just happened.
Seeing everything in front of her, she suppressed the thumping of her little heart, and Xun Guanniang urged: "Wenjun, don't delay, we still have to go to meet General Yao.**"
"Oh! Master, please wait a moment, Wenjun will come back as soon as you go!" Yu Wenjun responded without anger, glared at Yunfeng fiercely, and then walked out of the tent. Not long after, he reappeared with a small baggage.
In front of everyone.
Zhang Lingyun shook her head and said: "Yunlang, the sisters are sending you a message. Master, Qizhen, and junior sister, please be careful!"
"Yes!" The three girls nodded one after another, followed Yunfeng, and left the dining tent with the girls who stayed behind reluctantly seeing them off. There were already two thousand guards lined up at the camp gate waiting for them. Yunfeng and the four of them had just stepped in.
After getting on the horse and waiting for the order to set off, he saw Concubine Pei and King Donghai approaching quickly, so he had to dismount and wait.
Soon, the mother and son came closer, and Concubine Pei saluted: "I sincerely wish the general that his trip will be a success and that he can conquer Gushu in one fell swoop!" Then, she signaled to Wang Chong of Donghai: "Chong'er, why don't you come to the general quickly?
Salute?" Concubine Pei also understood the importance of this battle. It related to whether he could return to Jinling safely, so she couldn't bear to come to see him off in person.
This little kid's complexion seems a little dark. It seems that he traveled through the woods all day long. Concubine Pei didn't want to ask him. After all, he was not her biological child. Her biological child had died in the hands of Shi Le, not to mention the character of Wang Chong of Donghai.
There are some problems.
Donghai Wang Chong seemed reluctant, but had no choice but to helplessly raise his hand: "Gu Ye wishes General Yun a victory!"
Yunfeng responded with a salute: "Mrs. Pei and the King of Donghai must not be too polite. I wish you both good luck. After this battle, Wang Dun will be defeated!"
The guards suddenly burst out shouting: "Wang Dun will be defeated. Wang Dun will be defeated!"
Two thousand people shouted at the same time, and they were caught off guard. The mother and son's expressions suddenly changed due to the outburst of momentum, especially Wang Chong of Donghai, whose legs and feet became weak. (.) He almost fell to the ground, but had to look after him.
His bodyguard helped him to avoid making a fool of himself on the spot.
When the voice gradually subsided, Concubine Pei patted her chest and sighed with emotion: "According to me, the momentum of General Yun's two thousand personal guards should not be weaker than the thousands of troops. Hey, if my husband's hand was the same back then,
With such a strong army here, why would he die of fear?" As he spoke, a faint trace of nostalgia appeared on his face.
Unexpectedly, Yun Feng's expression turned cold, and he snorted coldly: "The reason why Mr. Ling was defeated was not because his army was not strong, but because he was isolated from the world. Otherwise, what's the use of having millions of powerful soldiers?"
It’s nothing more than another Qin Shihuang!”
Concubine Pei was startled and said displeasedly: "Although I and the King of Donghai are taking care of General Yun, please don't insult your late husband."
Yun Feng shook his head and said: "The last general is definitely not slandering King Yue of the East China Sea. My late husband has a rare reputation. He is humble and helps the common people, so he is respected by scholars and people all over the world. However, because he participated in the killing of Yang Jun, he entered
After he became the King of Donghai, he seemed to have changed. He first betrayed Changsha Wang Yi in the second year of Tai'an, and then killed Emperor Hui in the first year of Guangxi.
, falsely accused the emperor's uncle Wang Yan of causing rebellion, and sent three thousand soldiers into the palace to execute him. From then on, the late husband was greatly disappointed by the public, and was suspected by the scholars and the people.
Because of his remarks, my late husband falsely accused him of slandering the current government and had him killed. He was good at authority and controlled the government to an outrageous level. Therefore, Emperor Huai issued an edict and ordered all the feudal lords and towns in the world to punish him!"
Having said this, Yunfeng paused and saw that Concubine Pei's complexion had become paler, but there was not much anger in her face. He thought that this woman had not yet lost her conscience, so he continued: "Since my husband is here,
Emperor Xiaoyuan had great kindness, so why did Emperor Xiaoyuan only reluctantly posthumously honor him as a tribute to his late husband? This explains everything!"
As the loud words fell, Concubine Pei's body began to tremble violently. Every word of Yunfeng's scolding hit her heart like a heavy hammer. They were all indisputable facts. Concubine Pei never paid attention to this at first.
On the other hand, if you think about it carefully, what is the difference between Yue Shijun, the king of the East China Sea, and his rebellious ministers and traitors when he disrupted the government?
Seeing Concubine Pei's dejected look, Xun Guanniang secretly couldn't bear it. She quickly stepped forward to support her and blamed Yunfeng: "Duanshan, can you please stop saying a few words? Even if King Yue of the East China Sea is wrong, he has passed away, and everything is wrong."
Everything has disappeared long ago, so why hold on to it? What's more, the Pei family sisters were not involved, why are you so fierce? "
Yun Feng said sternly: "Teacher, you are wrong. I did not mean to embarrass Mrs. Pei, but I wanted to point out that the reason why King Yue of Donghai was able to exercise power in power, although it seemed to be beneficial to the heart, actually started from the time when he was literate.
It took a detour!”
Seeing everyone's expressions of confusion, Yunfeng explained: "Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed hundreds of schools of thought and only respected Confucianism, external saints and internal kings have been recognized by the scholar-bureaucrats. They have shown themselves to be generous to the outside world, harsh to the inside, and oppressed the people.
Attack dissidents! In particular, Wei Yang’s views of weakening and obscuring the people have been regarded as golden rules by rulers of all dynasties. In this way, how can we not exercise dictatorship and cause disaster?
Harm the world? Look again at King Yue of the East China Sea. During his life, this man was friendly to the Xianbei tribes and invited them to help. Of course, he played an important role in the battle against Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu. However, where the Xianbei soldiers went, the powerful
Under his connivance, all lives were destroyed and the people suffered, making the tragedy unbearable to watch. I heard that Tao Kan caused a lot of cruelty on his way north!"
Then the voice changed, Yunfeng looked at Wang Chong of Donghai: "The King of Donghai is still young, who has never been young and frivolous? However, time flies by in a hurry. If you want to make a difference in the future, you must prepare well from a young age.
The foundation is the foundation. At that time, if you look back at the nonsense in the past, you will only win a smile.
Just a smile. If Your Highness is determined to work hard, I would like to advise you to read less Confucian scriptures. It’s okay if you don’t learn from the external sage and internal king. The right way to govern a country is to be an external sage and an internal sage! I will give you a few more books. If you are willing
Please read it carefully." Then he turned around and shouted: "Go get those books!"
"As ordered!" One of the guards saluted and walked away quickly.
When he said this, Yunfeng unconsciously thought of the United States in his previous life. According to the Chinese, the United States was a king on the outside and a sage on the inside! To other countries, the United States was a typical bully.
It means pointing fingers. Every country in the world hates it, but for Americans themselves, it is a paradise-like existence. Americans often talk about how bad their country is in front of foreigners, such as zheng
How evil is fu, how the consortium and companies behind the scenes manipulate politics, and some aspects of a certain country are better than the United States. In fact, these are meaningless. If you ask this American who is complaining about sao if he wants to exchange nationalities, he
He must have been hesitant and confused.
There are countries with an inner sage and an outer king. Naturally, there are also countries that advocate an inner king and an outer sage. Externally, they don’t need anything but face to achieve the reputation of a saint. Internally, it’s just the opposite. They don’t need anything but face to achieve the status of a king.
Really! When he thought of this typical representative of the country, Yunfeng couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
While secretly sighing, the personal guards quickly brought it. Yunfeng handed it to Donghai Wang Chong and said with a smile: "Your Highness, if you can read it carefully, it may be of some benefit."
Concubine Pei took it on her behalf and said with a complex expression: "General Yun is right. My husband has indeed committed a serious crime against Sheji. I, mother and son, have learned a lesson. I would like to thank the general for his kindness." Then, she turned to Xun Guanniang and warned: "
Sister, you must pay attention to your safety. I look forward to your return soon."
"Don't worry, sister, Guan will pay attention." Xun Guanniang smiled and nodded.
Yunfeng also smiled slightly and said: "It's getting late, Mrs. Pei and Your Highness, please go back." Then he waved his hand: "Let's go!"
Everyone got on their horses one after another, and galloped towards Lin Wai under the eyes of Concubine Pei and her son.
Riding on the horse, Xun Guanniang turned around and asked: "Duanshan, I am still puzzled by this. King Yue of Donghai may have some connection with the Outer Saint and Inner King, but it is also far-fetched. But why did you give Donghai Chong as a gift? Could it be that
Do you plan to train him, or do you want to make him emperor in the future?"
Yun Feng explained: "This disciple obviously gave these books to Wang Chong of Donghai, but actually he hoped that Concubine Pei could read them. Concubine Pei is not an ordinary woman. She is the widow of Wang Yue of Donghai, and she is from the Pei family in Hedong.
The original staff of Haiwang Yue have huge political influence, and the disciple has shown kindness to Concubine Pei. If we can get her understanding and support in the future, it will be of immeasurable significance for the disciple to seize Jiangdong without bloodshed!"
"General, you are so sinister! Your scheming scares Wenjun!" Yu Wenjun quickly shrank back in fear and screamed: "Speaking of scheming people, Director Wang, Xi Jian, Uncle Wen, etc.
Even the old fox can't compare to you, Wenjun should stay away from you, lest he was tricked by you that day and still didn't know it!"
"Wenjun, what are you talking about?" Xun Guanniang suddenly looked displeased and scolded: "How can Duanshan achieve dominance in this troubled world without any skills? How can he defeat those old foxes? Besides, when did he plot against you?
Don’t be heartless, you know?”
"Master, you know how to protect the general, Wenjun just said it casually!" Yu Wenjun pursed his lips, looking extremely aggrieved.
Xun Guanniang's pretty face suddenly turned red and she stopped talking. Not long after, the group of people came out of the woods and met up with Yao Yisheng's group who had already packed their luggage. They totaled 11,000 horses and galloped towards Nanlimen.
.
When the cavalry arrived, the atmosphere under the Nanli Gate became tense for a moment. Su Jun's troops were ready, as if a powerful enemy was approaching. Everyone knew that the situation in this battle was extremely complicated. Not only did they have to face Deng, who was guarding Gushu,
Yue,
You have to always be wary of threats from around you. Refugees are all unruly people, and whether they want revenge or kindness depends on the specific situation. If you ask them who they hate the most, it must be Yunfeng!
