Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 88: Heart-to-heart (2)


It seemed that she felt the girl's worry about the future of the empire. Although she was a little surprised that the other party's identity was contrary to her confession, Wu Feng believed that this was the deep feeling of the other party's heart. Slowly stood up and went to the window, pondering for a long time, Wu Feng's face became extremely solemn and quiet: "The future of the empire is no longer decided by me in the northwest or your Lin family, and no one person can clean up the evils of these hundreds of years. Although there is a huge military organization, it is not functioning well. Various forces have penetrated into the depths of the army. The army has gradually become a tool of private control. Local government officials and powerful clans in various places are in collusion with each other. There are many things that use the power in their hands to enrich their own pockets. The central supervision department of the empire turns a blind eye and closes its eyes, which is ineffective. Crooked ways prevail, the people follow blindly, and disasters occur frequently. I believe the girl has heard of such situations. If the country The power class has been corrupted to such an extent, how can you expect it to change the direction of history?"

Hearing the other party's thoughtful words, Lin Yuexin was speechless for a while, and just took a few breaths to suppress her ups and downs, "Then what you mean is that we can only watch the empire Going down and down like this? As a minister, if you say this, your lord is not afraid of being punished?" Lin Yuexin's words were full of weakness, and even her voice was a little hoarse.

"Punish the heart? Hmph, punishing the heart is better than subjugating the country! In fact, the girl knows better than me, who is really capable of turning the tide in the current situation of the empire? If His Majesty the Emperor can be twenty years younger, it may be possible Right now, I am afraid that before His Majesty closes his eyes, the Central Plains will be in chaos first. Once the Central Plains is in chaos, the Kamans, Puers, Machihans, and even the Japanese who have been watching the side like wolves will give up. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" Wufeng sighed: "If you are not careful, the huge empire may be destroyed in this surging wind and waves in an instant."

Slowly raised her head, the girl's cold eyes showed that she had completely recovered her usual calmness, and she put it away with a faint smile: "It may not be as pessimistic as the adults said, as long as the empire can stabilize the political situation in time, the younger sister still feels that there is nothing wrong with it." Yes."

"The stability of the political situation that the girl mentioned probably refers to the establishment of the heir to the throne? This is not wrong, but according to the girl, who can ascend to this position can avoid this kind of chaos? Who among the two princes can do this." Wufeng smiled slightly, and he couldn't see any tendency, but the girl intuitively detected the sarcasm in the other's words, but she didn't think it was anything, the other party had his own His point of view is not surprising, if others say what they say, the other party will not be able to get to the current position.

"As long as His Majesty the Emperor can now make up his mind to appoint one of the several princes, and then supplement it with other means, he will never make too much trouble if he chooses whoever he wants." Lin Yuexin remained calm, her gaze As calm as water, he continued on his own: "With His Majesty the Emperor here, the rest of the people dare not make any changes. The most important thing is to take away the military power of the others. Then the other princes are just tigers without claws. What happened."

"Hehe, Miss thinks some things too simply. With the wisdom of His Majesty today, I'm afraid he has already considered these things. If it is really so simple and easy, why didn't he implement it?" Li Wufeng Ask flatly: "I'm afraid Miss Lin doesn't know how deeply the princes have penetrated into the army, right? But Miss, do you know about the big reshuffle caused by the unfavorable war in the Southern Military Region last time? Your Majesty has really moved, but look at the current situation. How much has it changed? To reverse this situation, it is not enough to change the commanders of several military regions or regiment division heads. What's more, His Majesty is old and frail, and who among these generals will not think about their own future? Mingli may Don't dare to go too far, but it's okay to secretly pass the money, Qu Yang, Feng Yin, and vice?"

A series of rhetorical questions made Lin Yuexin, who has always been articulate, unable to answer for a while. With Li Wufeng's identity and experience in the imperial army, his understanding of the division of factions and struggles in the imperial army is far from that of Lin Yue. The heart is so incomparable to outsiders, and the words are naturally engraved in the heart, and every sentence is deep.

"So, Mr. Li has decided that the empire is hopeless? According to you, don't we Tang people want to live under the rule of Kaman or Maqihan?" Lin Yuexin was silent. After a long time, he quietly asked such a sentence. She knows that she is far behind the other party when it comes to the understanding of the empire, especially the internal affairs of the empire and the army. She has also carefully considered the other party's arguments. In reality, I really don't want to.

"Hehe, what the girl said is wrong. There is no absolute reason for everything. Before the dust has settled, no conclusions can be easily drawn. I just said that there is no sign that can turn things around, not to mention what the girl said later. I can’t even agree with that sentence.” Wufeng’s smile implied self-confidence, his piercing eyes revealed a gleam of light, and a folding fan in his hand unfolded with a "crash", a majestic and unrestrained picture of eight horses Suddenly it appeared.

"Oh? I would like to hear more about it." Lin Yuexin frowned slightly.

"Although the empire is in decline, centipedes are dead but not stiff. Especially the people of our Tang nationality live in this eastern continent. The population is several times or even dozens of times higher than that of other ethnic groups. The degree of civilization in culture and art is second to none on the Eastern Continent. Although the Kamans and Machihans have been actively developing in recent decades and have the ability to challenge the empire militarily, if the empire has no internal worries, they have no chance at all. , The huge empire can crush them even with the help of inertia on the track of history." Wufeng talked eloquently, obviously intending to show off in front of the jade man, "Take another 10,000 steps and say, Even if the empire is annihilated, it does not mean that we Tang people will also sink. Which dynasty was not built on the ruins of the old dynasty? This dynasty is not the same as it was built on the basis of the previous dynasty? Going forward, Was it different from the Warring States period when the world was divided into seven parts? It also stood up from the seemingly indestructible ruins of the Great Qin Empire? The unique thousand-year history and cultural accumulation of our Tang nationality is destined to conquer foreign tribes and never be conquered by them! Of course this A short period of war and decline is not ruled out, but in the long river of history, what is this little time?"

Shen Ning's gaze was firmly fixed on Wufeng's face, and the girl's face became paler, "Could it be that Mr. Li is predicting that the empire will return to the divided era of warring states before the previous dynasty? Do you know that this is the case?" Countless innocent people will die for their wives and families, and how many years will the history of our Tang civilization go back as you said?"

Shaking his head to show that he did not agree with the other party's statement, Wufeng's eyes were deep, but his tone was very firm: "When divided for a long time, we must unite, and when we unite for a long time, we must divide. How to look at it, for the empire, the time for the unification of the empire is not short, but for the entire Eastern Continent or even the entire continent, it is nothing more than a larger vassal state. History is advancing, the times are developing, The prosperity of the wild land in the past may not be inferior to that of the empire. Only competition can promote development and progress. It is not a good thing if a nation always indulges in the glory of the past and does not seek progress. Even if there are no external factors, it will kill itself So I say that everything is still uncertain, we don’t have to stop the wheel of history, and we can’t stop it, it’s better to follow history, and even help, so that the wheel of history can go further and deeper!”

Although these words are sonorous and exciting, if you think carefully, you will find it difficult to find out how many specific things are revealed in these words, but the girl with a bright heart and a clear heart can accurately understand the meaning of the words from the cloudy words. After grasping something, the other party's ambition or ambition is unimaginable, but if you want to say something in detail, it seems difficult to find a place to start, but Lin Yuexin can be sure that this person in front of him will never Tolerating foreigners entering the Central Plains, as for the other ~IndoMTL.com~ she dare not and does not want to think deeply. It's just that the other party must have a purpose for blatantly pointing him out, and his identity has already been exposed. Does he really have a conspiracy when he says such a thing?

After calming down for a while, the girl's eyes became a little erratic, but this did not affect her judgment and analysis: "Master Li, who is so earnest in teaching young girls, must have something to teach me? It's better to open the skylight and speak clearly, so that the little girl can figure it out at once."

Without answering Lin Yuexin's question, Wufeng turned around in the room and returned to his original position, before saying, "What do you think about the prospects of the Taiping Sect?"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yuexin, who was extremely intelligent, immediately understood the meaning of the other party's words, and her lips parted lightly: "Are you here to test the younger sister?"

"Hehe, the girl is serious, it's just an exchange of ideas, let's treat it as a small talk." Wu Feng shrugged and smiled.

"Although the Taiping Sect started as a religion, judging from what has been shown so far, at least their current religious atmosphere is not strong. The appearance of the dynasty, I don’t know if they feel that the current situation needs to be deliberately suppressed, or they are using the tiger skin of religion as a banner, but at least they were quite successful in the early stage.” After a pause, “As for the future, we have The two counties of Beiyuan and Kansai are the bases, and their policies are becoming more and more moderate and practical. Up to now, some of the more extreme policy slogans they originally proposed have not been implemented. Many people who are dissatisfied with the empire They have already begun to join forces with the more moderate secular faction among them, and if the condition that there are no internal problems among them is true, it is really difficult to say in the future, especially since there is still a faint shadow of foreign forces from the north behind them."
