Governor please stay

Liu Yishou hurriedly helped him up and said: "The reason why people are human is because they are speculative, know shame, understand right and wrong, and understand good and evil. Everything we do is because we practice these things.

Otherwise, even if it is rich in clothes and fine food, it is nothing more than a human face and a beast's heart, let alone mention it.

But in today's world, black and white are reversed, right and wrong are not distinguished, morality is degraded, and rituals and music are broken.

I saw what Xiao Lun's family did. The son killed the father, and the father killed the son. In order to survive and gain glory, they could do whatever they could. The things they did were not very human.

In today's world like Xiao Jian, there are many people who sell their fathers for glory. Such people cannot be killed.After killing, there will be successors.

How to get rid of the turbid and promote the clear, and recast the spirit of the Chinese people?I have no idea.

To be honest, it is not difficult to flatten Jiangzhou. Yu Xiaoqing, Huang Fajiu and others are all under my control, but the strategy of dividing and wooing is not worth mentioning.

The difficult thing is to win people's hearts and educate them.

Being honest and knowing etiquette is only a necessary condition, and it doesn't mean that people's hearts will become better after they become rich.I originally planned to unify the world in the Northern Expedition in the future, but at that time, after the unification of the world, if the world is still like Xiao Lun's family.

What is the use of this world?

How can I work so hard for the happiness of these scumbags?

When I think about this, I just feel that the energy in my life is limited, as weak as the light of a candle, and it is very precious to illuminate the people around me. How can I talk about saving the suffering?

Thinking hard about ways to save the world but getting nothing, so I sigh. "

Liu Yishou said with a sigh.

In the past, he didn't know why he traveled here, and he even felt a little disgusted, thinking that maybe he came here just for a leisurely walk.

However, after he experienced many things, he gradually understood what he wanted to do and what he wanted to do.

Would it be considered a success after unifying the world?

He had thought so before.

But since he came to Jiangzhou, seeing what Xiao Lun's family did, and seeing the simple folk customs of Jiangzhou that is almost like a wild beast, Liu Yishou felt that if the world could only be unified on the surface under his leadership, then it would be impossible. It's better that someone Liu doesn't come.

Maybe if Yang Jian and Li Er clean up the situation, the ending would be better.

Really do not rule out the possibility!After all, they have handed over their transcripts, and Liu Yishou is still taking the exam.

"My lord, there is a way that there must be a way for a car to reach the mountain. Now that I think about it so much, I can't do anything. What are you trying to do?"

Yang Xiuzhi comforted in a low voice.He knew what the problem was, but he couldn't give an answer.

This situation is the same as cancer patients know that they have a terminal illness, but do not know how to cure it.

"Forget it, let's go and rest. After dealing with Xiao Lun's problem, we will march into Linchuan County and open up the connection between Jiangzhou and Jin'an County. At that time, we can join forces with Yu Wentai and concentrate our forces to go south to Guangzhou!"

Liu Yishou waved his hand, he didn't want to continue talking about those heavy topics, now that the military defeat of the domestic powerful chieftains and all sides is an obvious issue, it can be dealt with as long as it is done step by step.

What is difficult to deal with is always the human heart!

When there is no threat from the north, and when the economy in the south is greatly developed, who has the mind to continue the Northern Expedition? What is the significance of the Northern Expedition?

Since there is such a large wasteland in the south that can be reclaimed, and since Liu Yishou himself is very capable and can manage the south well, why did he go to the Northern Expedition?

Life is only a few decades, wouldn't it be good to lie down and enjoy it in Jiangnan?When all your subordinates think so, do you go to the Northern Expedition alone with a knife in your hand?

Seeing the stupid and wicked Xiao Lun's family, Liu Yishou worried that he and his descendants would become the next Xiao Lun in the future.

"My lord, the grain transport fleet has docked at the riverside ferry, and is now unloading."

Hu Luxian walked into the study and reported to Liu Yishou, but felt that the atmosphere here was a bit heavy.

"You go and deal with it. It's just a small matter. You will be the one who leads the army alone in the future."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly and said, he couldn't get up to these chores.

"No, my lord, this subordinate wants to say that the old gentleman named Zu Ting has come and brought a box of printed books to my lord."

Hu Luxian said a little excitedly.

Reading is good, and he will realize the beauty of reading. After reading the book, his mind will be clearer, and he will know what can be done and what cannot be done.

"Please! That's all, I'll pick it up myself."

Zu Ting is over 80 years old this year, and this time he came with the grain fleet, and it was definitely not for reminiscing about the old days.

Liu Yishou brought Yang Xiuzhi and others to the shore, and saw Zu Ding standing in front of a strange-looking boat with a huge paddle wheel at the stern!

"My father built a thousand-mile ship back then, and the old man has ordered people to restore it these days. This time, I came to Jiangzhou specially to show the governor a look."

Zu Dian straight to the point told Liu Yishou of his intention to come.

"Thousand-mile boat, interesting!"

Liu Yishou saw the huge paddle wheel at the stern, nodded slightly and smiled, but was puzzled in his heart, wondering what was so strange about this thing.

Paddle boats are not a new thing. Soochow already had them during the Three Kingdoms period. Of course, paddle boats are relatively small in size, and it looks a little scary like this one.

"There is a device inside the boat that allows many people to step on the pedals and work together. If the boat is going backwards, it will be much faster than ordinary tank boats. Even if it is going with the wind, it can also hang the sails."

Zu Tie said confidently.His father Zu Chongzhi tried to sail this ship back then, but unfortunately the Southern Qi court didn't show any interest, and then he was thrown aside.In the Nanliang period, Xiao Yan didn't even mention it.

The fact that the ship can be restored so quickly is because the propulsion device inside was well preserved at the beginning, and this thousand-mile ship is newly built.

Liu Yishou had never eaten pork but had seen pigs run, so he immediately understood what it was all about.

Although no steam engine was used, Zu Chongzhi actually built a mechanical transmission device such as a gearbox, so that many people can step on it together to increase the output power, and then the boat can drive such a huge paddle wheel.

In the era when the metallurgy and forging industries were not yet developed, it was very unreliable to engage in propeller propulsion.The paddle boat is already the ceiling!

I have to say that this thing still has a bit of gold content, and it also has some military uses.

"It's windy along the river, Mr. Zu, please come into the study."

Liu Yishou was very moved, the old man came to Jiangzhou at the age of eighty, it must be something important, not just for this "thousand-mile ship".

Everyone came to the government office study together, Yang Xiuzhi and the others put the box containing the books aside, and retreated out with interest, leaving only Liu Yishou and Zu Min.

"I am old, and now my wishes are basically fulfilled by the King of Wu, and I don't have much nostalgia for the world. Under the nine springs, I have an account with my father, so I have nothing to do."

Zu Ting smiled heartily, it is difficult to pretend that the emotions on a person's body cannot be seen by others.Liu Yishou understood that the long-lived old man in front of him really looked like he had no regrets in his life.

"Please teach me, Mr. Zu."

Liu Yishou folded his sleeves and bowed deeply to Zu Jun.

If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, people come to you if you have nothing to do, and they don't ask you to do something, why bother to go to the study in the middle of the night to talk?

"King Wu's intelligence is beyond the reach of mortals. The old man just has something from the heart to say to the king of Wu. When a person is about to die, his words are good, and the old man has no scruples. The king of Wu just treats the nonsense of the old man when he is dying. Don't worry about it. Take it to heart."

Zu Tie took out a book from the box and handed it to Liu Yishou.This is a block-printed book, which was made into a thread-bound book with a "protective box" based on Liu Yishou's suggestion.

A book is a pile of paper and a wooden box. After reading it on weekdays, I put it in the wooden box for protection.

The word "Yi Yi" is written on the cover of this book.

"My late father's understanding of the "Book of Changes" is here. This box of books is all my late father's works. King Wu can read Yi Yi first if he has time."

Zu Tun pushed the book box in front of Liu Yishou.

"I will definitely read this book when I have time. Mr. Zu, please explain directly why you came here."

Liu Yishou put the "Yi Yi" aside.

"The Yellow River comes out of the river map, and Luoshui comes out of the Luo book. Since King Wen comprehended the river map and Luo book, he realized the "Book of Changes" in prison and passed it on to later generations.

This is the love of heaven, the sages understand the will of heaven, and leave a legacy for future generations. "

Zu Tun said politely, Liu Yishou nodded slightly, waiting for the next sentence.

"Hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period all comprehend Hetu Luoshu. Hundreds of flowers bloom and hundreds of schools contend. At the end of the struggle, hundreds of schools flow into the sea. Because God has the virtue of good life, the world cultivates virtue to be blessed by God. Haotian does not care about human affairs, so there is It is said that the Son of Heaven replaces Tianmu and guards."

Hearing this, Liu Yishou continued to nod.

"The ability of the Son of Heaven to command the world lies in Tao and virtue. Tao is the exterior, virtue is the interior, and morality is the foundation of human beings. People without morality are no different from animals.

A Taoist acts on behalf of the heavens, makes up for the deficiency and damages the excess, and benefits all the people; a virtuous person sets an example for the world, forges rituals and music to set rules, and benefits all generations.

The Son of Heaven is immoral and immoral. Naturally, he cannot take the place of Tian Mu. He should abdicate and make way for the virtuous. This is where the virtuous live. "

Liu Yishou continued to nod, he already knew what Zu Tie wanted to say.

"What is virtue?"

Liu Yishou asked in a deep voice.

"Heaven has the virtue of loving life. If the Son of Heaven can act on behalf of the heavens and let more people feel that heaven loves the world, then they are virtuous and they are practicing the truth.

If the ministers laugh and the common people cry, it is senseless.

Since the Son of Heaven cannot do justice for the heavens, no one cares if the Son of Heaven is virtuous or not. "

Zu Ting said meaningfully.

"Mr. Xie Zu explained the confusion, the way is as simple as it is, today is really taught."

Liu Yishou clasped his sleeves together, bowed deeply to his ancestors, sincerely convinced.

"Although King Wu has not yet guarded Tian Mu, if he can take back the place where Hetu Luoshu came out, he will be closer to the glory of Haotian, and it will be easier to comprehend the secrets of heaven.

Come to think of it, even if he wasn't the Son of Heaven at that time, he should be very close to the Son of Heaven. "

Zu Ting, who is in his 80s, has no scruples in speaking, and no one will do anything to him.

"How to comprehend the secrets of heaven? Please give me your advice, sir."

Liu Yishou asked earnestly.

"King Wu is amazingly talented, benevolent and loving, and doesn't need to be reminded by the old man. Just be aware that those who have deep desires have shallow secrets, and those who have too much greed will be abandoned by the heavens. That's all the old man said."

After saying this, Zu Tie seemed to have fulfilled all his wishes and had no regrets.He closed his eyes and lowered his head as if he was asleep.

Liu Yishou thought he was too tired and fell asleep.After a while, I found that Zu Tie seemed to be completely motionless.He went up to touch the opponent's wrist, and sure enough, he had no pulse.

"Mr. Zu, I will never forget your teaching."

Liu Yishou knelt down and made a big salute to Zu Yun.

Chapter 548

After receiving Liu Yishou's "hint", Huang Fajiu besieged Poyang County desperately, wishing to use all his energy.

Xiao Jian and others desperately resisted in order to survive, and the battle became fierce from the very beginning, with punches to the flesh.

Ten days later, Xiao Jian, who was short of food and soldiers, and with a low city wall, could not stand up to the wolf-like private army of the chieftain. Poyang County was breached, and the two sides fought in the streets of the city, with heavy casualties each.

There was great chaos in Poyang County, countless soldiers and civilians died in the chaos, and all property was looted.

During the street fighting, Xiao Lun's eldest son, Xiao Jian, and his third son, Xiao Teng, were shot dead by Huang Fajiu in the rebellion!

The second son, Xiao Que, had extraordinary physical strength and tyrannical personal force. With more than a hundred elite soldiers, he rushed out from the east gate of Poyang County to encircle him.

They came to the ferry on the river bank, took a boat along the Po River, and escaped towards Le'an in the east.

The group of people was intercepted by Hu Sengyou's fleet that had been ambushing for a long time on the road. During the scuffle, Xiao Que was shot and killed by Hu Lvxian. The rest of the soldiers saw that the leading feudal king was dead, and they had no reason to continue to resist, so All surrendered.

Xiao Lun's soldiers and horses were all wiped out, and the chaos in Jiangzhou caused by Xiao Xu's sudden death came to an end calmly.

The two vassal kings were originally quite powerful in Jiangzhou. If they unite together and confuse the local wealthy chieftains to make trouble together, it will be very tricky.

Not to mention the rebellion and attack on Jiankang, at least one side can be separated and resist the control of the Jiankang court.

However, from the vigorous ending of the six-nation alliance in the Warring States period, it has clearly told us:

There are more people and more wild minds, but haystacks do not make trees.Come out to hang out, sometimes the more people the better.

With many pig teammates around, let alone winning, it is difficult to protect yourself.

Godly opponents are rare but pig teammates often are, and this has become the easiest problem to encounter when huddling together to keep warm.

That feeling is similar to choosing a famous doctor from a lot of quack doctors. Success or failure depends entirely on face, that is, to see if there will be a thick thigh among the pig teammates to hug.

It's just that most of the time there are no thick legs, and the mantis legs are stubbled one after another, and these mantis legs especially like to block cars when there is nothing to do, and backstab at critical moments.

Although the matter of the vassal king has come to an end, Liu Yishou's strategy for Jiangzhou has just begun!

Bashan County is the only way from Yuzhang County to Luling County (Jian City, Jiangxi Province) in the south. The terrain is relatively dangerous and there are many powerful chiefs.

The people who control Luling County are the outliers of the Xiao Clan who have not had time to clean up after Liu Yishou took control of the center of the Liang Kingdom, and their power is relatively scattered.

After all, the situation in Jiankang was unstable at that time, power was not consolidated, and it was a sensitive period when the vassal rebellion had just been quelled, so it was not suitable for a large army to march south.

Nankang County (Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province), which is further south of Luling County, is controlled by Xiao Bo, the nephew of Xiao Yantang.
