The room was silent, and everyone was meditating. Tian Sheng had learned from the lessons of the rebellion in the late Dacheng Dynasty, and had devoted himself to blocking the infiltration of Vietnamese forces for many years. Now this move can be said to completely change the national policy of Emperor Tian Sheng for many years. , this Wei Zhi dares to think and speak!
Looking at the national policies for dealing with barbarians in the 600 years of Dacheng, those present were all capable ministers of the dynasty. Naturally, they understood that the spread of civilization, war strategies, and economic exchanges proposed by Feng Zhiwei were the three major strategies for suppressing the grassland tribes. However, each method has its limitations. The threat of the grassland has always shrouded the Central Plains. The powerful barbarians who have been fighting for territory for many years are like weeds on the grassland. After the nationalities and forces are eliminated, a more ferocious and barbaric barbarian tribe will soon arise on the grassland, one after another, and it is difficult to eradicate them.
Once troops are rashly launched, what follows may be a long-lasting war, and they risk suppressing one regime and then facing another, more ferocious regime. Are politicians really determined to do so? ? To the southwest of Tiansheng, there is Xiliang, a fertile maritime country with developed salt industry and commerce. Once the war breaks out, will Xiliang be robbed by fire?
No one can bear this responsibility. Although the strategy is good, no one dares to support it.
"Have you ever thought that once a nomadic country is enlightened by the civilization of the Central Plains, and learns from my technology, my rule of law, and my national policies, it is very likely that it will become more prosperous?" Hu Shengshan asked after a long while.
"Intermarriage and mutual trade will certainly take a long time to achieve results, and imitating our Central Plains culture cannot be achieved overnight." Feng Zhi smiled slightly, "What's more, Tiele and Gu'a are in a remote corner of the Hulun grassland in Dayue. The three major tribes, Duoshu and Duoshu, have never been restless for many years. After Dai Viet retreated in the First World War, with appropriate support and necessary restraint, Dai Viet will definitely not be able to cross Hu Lun Pass within ten years."
"What's more." Feng Zhi smiled, and his tenderness disappeared in an instant, and his agility and brilliance came on his own, "I still have two good things to protect Da Yue from being suppressed by our government and turning a wolf into a dog!"
"Oh?" Emperor Tiansheng's expression turned enthusiastic, but Ning Yi beside him suddenly narrowed his eyes.
Feng Zhiwei turned his eyes and suddenly walked to Ning Yi and bowed lightly.
"Your Highness, would you mind lending me something?"
Ning Yi raised his eyes and looked at Feng Zhiwei. The masked girl's eyes were covered with fog, making it difficult to see the expression in her eyes.
The two looked at each other and looked away. Ning Yi lowered his eyes to his sleeves, and then said calmly: "Okay."
He seemed to have already guessed it without asking what it was.
Feng Zhi pursed his lips and smiled, the smile was cold.
The rest of the people didn’t know what kind of riddle the two men were playing, so they all looked around impatiently. Feng Zhi pointed at Ning Yi’s wrist and said with a smile: “I can borrow the prince’s Buddhist beads.”
Ning Yi was wearing a moon-white raw silk robe with gold edging. The sleeves were wide and embroidered with a few light green five-petal plum leaves. His elegance and grace were eye-catching. No one could see that he was wearing Buddhist beads on his wrist. Emperor Tiansheng smiled. Said: "Lao Liu, I have never heard that you are a layman, why do you suddenly believe in Buddhism?"
“A few days ago, my seventh brother invited my brothers to have a banquet.” Ning Yi said with a smile, “One person at the banquet gave me a string, saying it was a tribute from the Xunluo Kingdom. Wearing it in summer will prevent you from sweating and protect your mind. My eyes, I am most afraid of the heat so I wear them, not because I have become a layman."
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and wore a string of black Buddhist beads on his wrist. The color was ancient and elegant, with a light agarwood fragrance. He knew at a glance that it was not an ordinary product. With the delicate jade-like wrist bones, he was clearly a solemn Buddhist. Things are actually a bit tempting in their vividness.
He stretched out his hand, but did not take off the beads himself. Instead, he raised his eyes and looked at Feng Zhiwei with a smile, his eyes shining under his thick long eyelashes.
Feng Zhiwei looked at him.
He looked at Feng Zhiwei.
Stretch your wrist flat in the air, but don't take it back.
Feng Zhi gritted her teeth secretly. The longer the stiffness lasted, the more awkward she would become. She had no choice but to reach out to get it. She carefully raised her fingers to avoid touching his skin. Next to her, Hu Shengshan suddenly laughed and said, "Master Wei, you have such curled orchid fingers, you really have a daughter." Coquettish."
Everyone laughed, and Feng Zhiwei also said with a smile: "I am the first son in the family. Several brothers died in infancy. My parents were afraid that they would not be able to support them, so they raised me as a daughter since they were young, which made everyone laugh. ."
As he spoke, his hands moved faster, and his fingertips slid across Ning Yi's palm. Suddenly, Ning Yi curled his fingers and lightly scratched her palm.
This scratch was as light as a feather, almost trembling but not stopping. Feng Zhiwei was startled. She subconsciously withdrew her hand and almost dropped the beads to the ground. She only felt that her face was burning. She thought to herself that wearing a mask on her face was nothing. , the base of the ears must also be red.
As expected, Ning Yi smiled and said, "Master Wei is such a meticulous person, he is so careful when picking up a Buddhist bead."
Everyone laughed again, but this time the laughter was different. Some people still had no heart, while others had their eyes flashing.
It seems that a poor boy from a peasant family should not behave like this...
Feng Zhiwei looked into Ning Yi's eyes with a cold smile, and said with a calm smile: "Wei Zhi was born in a poor family, but now he is lucky enough to see Tianyan, and even the prince and the elders of the pavilion look at each other with green eyes, and they are happy for a while. Also fearful and frivolous, the prince has no problem."
"It's okay." Ning Yi smiled, "I am also happy to see you, so happy that I am scared."
Everyone laughed and joked, but Emperor Tiansheng was still thinking about Feng Zhiwei's plan to tame the wolf. Although this undercurrent made him feel moved, he didn't think deeply about it.
"Your Majesty." Feng Zhiwei quickly changed the subject, stepped forward and presented the Buddhist beads, "Here are the two strategies for taming wolves."
Emperor Tian Sheng was playing with the Buddhist beads and saw that the patterns on the beads were strange and complicated. If he realized something, he asked, "Gelug Lamaism?"
"Exactly." Feng Zhiwei didn't want to stay for a moment longer and spoke quickly, "Dai Viet was originally from a grassland tribe. The first generation of the Great Khan of Hora once believed in Lamaism. Although it declined later, Shamanism came to dominate. However, most of the upper-class nobles of the Yue Kingdom believed in this religion, so Wei Chen thought that he might as well try some means to promote this religion in the Yue Kingdom."
"So what?"
"There are three benefits. First, the Gelug Lama has "two disobedience rules". One is that monks are not allowed to marry and have children, and the other is that monks are not allowed to participate in production. Once a large number of young men are tonsured and join the religion, the population and combat power will decrease. . Even if he returned to secular life during the war, the life of the ancient Buddha of Chang Qing Deng has already eliminated the desire to kill. Secondly, the teachings of Lamaism promote the six paths of reincarnation and practice hard in this life and only seek the next life. Then believers will have the heart to be content with the status quo. Thirdly, faith Lamaism must have temples. Unlike shamans who can hold worship ceremonies anywhere, a large number of temples can also pull wandering herdsmen off their horses and keep them in a fixed area."
