A Timely Wife

Seeing that the two little ones realized their mistakes, Li Ruosong said earnestly: "Ruoshan and Jinyan, you two must remember that force is used to frighten opponents, not to defeat them, especially It's Ruoshan, you must keep this in mind."

Li Ruoshan looked at Li Ruosong in a daze. He didn't understand why the topic came to him again. Seeing Li Ruoshan like this, Li Ruosong sighed and said, "Your brother-in-law once told me After a few stories, there is one story that I have been remembering until now, so I might as well talk about it with you two today."

Li Ruoshan's eyes lit up when he heard your brother-in-law, he liked his brother-in-law the most, "What did brother-in-law say?

Hurry up and listen to me, brother-in-law is the smartest, and the stories he tells must be good, really, brother-in-law is too biased, you are so old, what stories do you need to hear, brother-in-law should tell me Speaking is. "

Li Ruosong only felt that his fingers were a little itchy, and after thinking about it, he felt that people should be loyal to their truest thoughts, so he unceremoniously gave Li Ruoshan a forehead collapse, and Li Ruoshan squatted tearfully, covering his head in pain. On the ground, Li Ruosong withdrew his finger, looked at Li Ruoshan calmly, and asked Wang Ziqing and Wang Zize to close all the doors and windows of the inn room, so as not to let what they said go outside, if someone listened to it Well, they don't need to go back anymore, I'm afraid the village will send people to the prison to pick them up instead.

"It is said that there was a dynasty, because the emperor of the previous dynasty was aggressive and made the people's lives miserable, so their ancestors led people to overthrow the previous dynasty. The emperors were light on corvée and poor in taxation, so that the people could live a relatively prosperous life.

Their approach is indeed effective. At the very least, the life of the common people is indeed much better, but when they are rich, the enemy starts to invade them. Because their force is not good, they are always forced by the enemy to take a lot of food , money, and many people on the frontier were killed.

In order to quell the war and prevent the enemy from subjugating them, they send a large amount of food, silver, silk, porcelain and other valuables to the enemy every year, and also send their princess to marry each other. It can only maintain peace for a period of time. Once there is no food or there is a disaster, the enemy will directly dispatch the army to burn, kill and loot, regardless of whether they were close or not before, and then the court here will send a large amount of supplies. .

Later, there was an emperor who was very powerful. His sister had a good relationship with him, but was sent to marry him. He was very young at that time, but he saw the tears of his sister and the helplessness of his father. An enemy who always beats them to pieces.

When he became emperor, he began to train generals, improve weapons, and then take the initiative to attack the enemy. He has been fighting, fighting, and fighting all his life. Of course, he did win and drive the enemy away. Yes, far away.However, when he looked back at his country, he found that his subjects were already poorly clothed and hungry, and all the money and food accumulated by the previous generations of emperors were completely consumed by the war. .

And those young and middle-aged people who can support a family are either serving in the army or have died on the battlefield. Those who can work in the fields are only the old, weak, sick and disabled. Without young and middle-aged people, there is no better life. Harvest, without a good harvest, there will be less and less stuff in the national treasury, but so many troops always need food, drink, weapons, and military pay, so the country is getting poorer and poorer.

It is conceivable that if this continues, the country will not be far from being destroyed. Fortunately, the emperor finally came to his senses, issued an edict of guilt, and began to pay attention to improving the lives of the people, which made this dynasty It has continued for hundreds of years, you see, if a dynasty wants to be feared by others, you must have strong force, so that others will not dare to move you easily, and will not let the other party invade you at every turn, but the same Yes, a strong force must have a stronger national power. This national power refers to whether you have enough silver and food in your treasury, whether your weapons are advanced enough, and most importantly, whether your people are doing well. Whether you support you or not, in the face of national hatred and family hatred, are they willing to give up their lives and join the army to fight the enemy to the end.

If these ordinary people can't live well, what will they use to support you, maybe in the end, you can only forcibly recruit soldiers, and they will simply overthrow your rule. They can make your world peaceful, and they can also make your world full of flames.

Li Ruoshan was silent for a while, and said with a serious expression: "Listening to Jun's words today is better than reading ten years of books. Please rest assured, Brother Yu will definitely keep these things in mind. If there is such a day in the future, Brother Yu will never forget. Today's words."

Li Ruosong shook his head and said: "It's not to make you not forget, but to make you do it in the future. If you can't do it in the future, from Brother Wei's point of view, you don't need to think about that position. We Da Chu, I can't stand the repeated tossing."

Wang Ziqing and Wang Zize nodded beside them. Yes, they can no longer stand any troubles in Dachu. During the years of Emperor Chucheng's reign, Dachu has become worse and worse, and the life of ordinary people has become more and more difficult. If it wasn't for the person who came to that position later on who was not sincerely planning for the common people, whether Da Chu could continue to exist would be a big question.

Seeing this, Li Ruoshan lowered his head, thought seriously for a while, and said, "Will my brother and brother-in-law stay by my side at that time?"

Li Ruosong raised his brows and said, "We don't want to be with you even if we don't want to be with you. You are my younger brother no matter what. Elder brother, I will never leave you, as long as you still need us at that time."

This is the most sincere promise that Li Ruosong can give. He will not say that we will definitely not leave you, because he does not have that much confidence in the future. He thinks that they will be able to make it to that day, and there is no guarantee that they will. The dependent child in front of me will continue to rely on them and trust them as before. You know, that position is not easy to do, but people's hearts are always easy to change, just like the current Emperor Chu Cheng and Prime Minister Zhou back then. .

Li Ruoshan gave a big sigh of relief, as long as these two people are willing to stand by his side, then he will have nothing to fear, let alone worry about getting lost.

"Brother, I will definitely make the people live a better life in the future." Li Ruoshan said with certainty.

Li Ruosong nodded and said, "I believe in you and we will wait and see."
