Spring and Autumn I Am King
Chapter 1131: Mr. Dongguo and the wolf
Remember [ ] in a second to provide you with wonderful novel reading.
Looking at the middle-aged man who took Ge Jin and wiped his wet bun and beard a little, Zhao Wuxi was full of doubts.
In later generations, the story of Mr. Dongguo is well known to every household, but few people know about it, but this gentleman is a man of the same era as Zhao Yang. Zhao Wuxi thought it was a fable from a fable. Unexpectedly, he met this Mr. Dongguo on behalf of Zhao Yang when he attacked Zhongshan.
Moreover, this gentleman was somewhat similar to the good old man in the fable. As soon as he entered the door, he asked Zhao Wuxi to stop attacking Zhongshan. This made Wu Xie feel a little new, because the various scholars who came to defect these days basically had a "smart plan" in mind, saying that they could help Zhao Hou quickly destroy Zhongshan, so as to gain employment. Those who go against the trend are really the only one.
Is it stupid? Or wise and foolish? He has to go to school to test him.
So Zhao Wuxi asked, "Is Mr. Zhongshan an official?"
"No, the villain is a commoner of Jibei."
"Mr. is entrusted by Zhongshan Kingdom?"
"No, the villain has never had any dealings with the Zhongshan Office."
Zhao Wuchen was a little confused: "Since it's none of my business, and my husband is not from Zhongshan, if it is based on the county's origin, it should be counted as a native of Zhao, so why bother to persuade the widow to stop attacking Zhongshan?"
Mr. Dongguo sat upright and said solemnly: "Just because nothing is more valuable than righteousness, it is an unrighteous act for the Duke of Zhao to attack Zhongshan today."
Zhao Wuxi burst into laughter, and when the military officials of Zhao State who were watching the lively in the tent heard the words, they also burst into laughter, thinking that this person might be suffering from hysteria, and went to the barracks to say that the war was unjust.
Especially those noble children who are full of military merit and glory, they are even more disapproving.
Zhao Wuxi didn't stop it either, but quietly observed Mr. Dongguo's reaction.
Mr. Dongguo was not frightened by these laughter, until the ridicule subsided a little, and then he asked those noble children: "The villain heard that the laws of Zhao State are strict, if one person enters someone else's garden and stole other people's peaches and plums, this is the case. What's the crime?"
Someone replied: "This is the crime of theft. According to the "Law of Zhao", one may cut off a finger, or fine him, or serve light labor."
"However, the act of stealing is not heard by the public, and the ruler is punished for it, and the criminal law also expressly prohibits it. Why is this? It is unjust because the thief harms the interests of others and benefits himself. Stealing peaches and plums is still unrighteous, and those who steal other people's dogs, pigs, chickens and other livestock and poultry are even more unrighteous. It should have been a great injustice, but the two and three sons praised each other, isn’t this a big absurdity?”
The Xungui children did not turn the corner for a while, and they were confused by him. They had no reason to say anything, but Zhao Wuxi smiled and said: "Mr. Hugh is going to bully the younger generation and secretly changed the concept. Zhao attacked Zhongshan because Zhongshan betrayed Zhao. Injustice first, this move violated the promise made at the time of the Huangchi meeting, the widow is under the order of the Son of Heaven, and the next responds to the voice of the people, and goes on a crusade in the identity of Hou Bo, this is a righteous war."
"Is this really the case?"
Mr. Dongguo smiled and shook his head. As for how Zhao State manipulated the rebellion of the nobles in Zhongshan, he walked among Yan, Qi, and Zhongshan all the year round. Naturally, he knew it perfectly, but he didn't point it out. In Zhongshan, in order to capture a city of three miles and a country of seven miles, people killed more than a thousand people at times and hundreds at times. Except for those who died in direct battles, the people of Zhao and Zhongshan were delayed in farming due to wars, colds, diseases, etc. And the dead are tens of thousands!"
His tone intensified, and almost turned into a rebuke: "Since ancient times, except for a few times, there has never been a righteous war in this world! The country overthrew the army, the thieves abused the people, stripped the gods, overthrew the society, the people What is good for heaven, what is good for ghosts and gods, what is good for people? If it is a small injustice to say that Zhongshan has broken the covenant, then it is a great injustice to attack Zhongshan because of anger!"
"Bold!" In the tent, he regarded Zhao Wuxi as a god, and regarded his military exploits as a smooth path to promotion.
"The widow never kills people because of their words, you step back!"
For Zhao Hou, this Mr. Dongguo is getting more and more interesting... Although he sits on the opposite side of Zhao State, it also shows that no matter what country in this world, there are masters who are in the wild.
The disciples of Xungui went down in resentment, and Mr. Dongguo also knew that he was a little excited, and after a while, he slowed down and said: "This is the opinion of a villain, not to mention, now Zhongshan has begged for mercy and surrendered, and is willing to cede The land on the south bank of the Hutuo River has already obtained what the monarchs and lords want, but why do they still have to enter the border of their country, mow their crops, cut down their trees, fall to their castles, cover their houses, move their heavy weapons, and blindly want to destroy Zhongshan. Woolen cloth?"
This Mr. Dongguo is a very learned person. He speaks in a certain way. It is self-inflicted to go around logic with him. Zhao Wuxi said straight to the point:
"The ancients said that if they are not of our race, their hearts must be different, and the attitudes of the Rong and Di are not the same as those of China. Zhongshan was built by Baidi of Xianyu, and the Rong and Di were wolves. Now even if Zhongshan is curled up with its limbs, its back is bowed and its chin is buried. , curled up like a hedgehog, bent like a moth chrysalis, in order to obtain Zhao's mercy. But a wolf is a wolf, and when the crisis is over, Zhongshan will definitely fight back and stab Zhao's heart with a knife!"
How can other people sleep on the side of the couch! For Zhongshan, which is only three hundred miles away from the capital Yecheng, the always suspicious Zhao Wuxi would not allow them to exist as an independent regime!
Mr. Dongguo did not give up, and exhorted him earnestly: "However, when the lords and princes use the barbarian rituals, they will be barbarians; if the Rong and Di use the Xia rituals, they should obey the Chinese. The Xianyu people have been in Hebei for more than a hundred years, and they have been bathed in the Chinese style. , Jianguo called Zhongshan, imitating Zhao country everywhere, Zhongshan's claws became blunt, his tail curled, he was no longer a wolf, but a domestic dog tied to the gate of Zhuxia..."
He entered Zhongshan from Qi State several times and witnessed the changes in this state of Rong and Di. When they first moved here, the Baidi people were mainly livestock husbandry, with a three-foot-high hall as their room, the house grass was not cut, the rafters were not scraped, the hair was draped, and they ate half-raw meat. However, only one hundred years later, after the establishment of the Zhongshan Kingdom, the Xianyu people, especially the upper-class nobles, are desperately moving closer to the Central Plains in terms of customs, culture and eating habits.
Xianyu people do not have their own writing, and all epics, records, and documents use Huaxia seal characters. With the migration of a large number of people from the Central Plains, more and more people can speak Xiayan in China, and Zhongshan dialect has become more and more similar to Dongyang dialect. .
Zhongshan's buildings and institutions are all imitated by Zhao State, and the whole set of bells and chimes in the palace also seems to regard themselves as Chinese princes. Zhongshan nobles taught poetry and calligraphy, and at the same time promoted a big plan: Mr. Dongguo saw a bronze inscription of Zhongshanzi with his own eyes. Legend has it that Zhongshan is not actually a Rong Di, but a descendant of Yin and Zhou with the surnames Ji and Zi...
Mr. Dongguo thinks this is a good phenomenon. The efforts made by Zhongshan people cannot be completely denied because of Zhao Hou's words "Rong Di Jackal"!
He bowed again and begged: "Even if Zhongshan is guilty, what are the people of it? Destroy its society and barracks and raze it to prefectures and counties. The people of Xianyu will inevitably resist with anger. Instead, they will interrupt the momentum of Rong and Di imitating China. It is better to follow the trend. Agree to Zhongshan's request for peace, Xi Maobao released the turtle and got it, and he rescued the snake and got the pearl, the snake and turtle are not as spiritual as the wolf, if Zhao Hou lets him live, Zhongshan will dare to ignore the sincerity of the turtle and snake!"
After Mr. Dongguo finished speaking, Zhao Wuxi was silent for a long time before he said, "Sir, are you really not a lobbyist from Zhongshan?"
Although Mr. Dongguo is thin, he has the dignity of a scholar. He puffed out his chest and swore, "If you are deceived, you will be rewarded with ten thousand swords!"
Zhao Wuxi, hesitantly, if what he said is true, then Mr. Dongguo's meddling style is really similar to the Mohists who put out fires everywhere during the Warring States Period. Righteousness exists, although there are millions of people, shall I go?
However, he has also heard the unfinished meaning of Mr. Dongguo's words...
"The widow really doesn't believe that there will be selfless and unprofitable people in the world. I'm afraid that you are not just trying to plead for Zhongshan, sir?"
Seeing the hesitation on Mr. Dongguo's face, Zhao Wuxi knew that he had guessed right, and couldn't help laughing: "Although Mr. Fangcai's words are reasonable and well-founded, they still cannot make the few people agree not to conquer Zhongshan. Now that the heavy rain has not stopped, the army will not be able to do it. If you are wasting your time here, you might as well tell the truth about what you have in your heart, and you may be able to convince the widow..."
Mr. Dongguo sighed, knowing that the arrow was on the string, he had to send it, and simply said frankly:
"Although the villain is dull and obtuse, he has also heard a nursery rhyme, "Jishui Bank, Huangchi Shang, Hou Feihou, Wang Feiwang..."
"After the Huangchi meeting, Zhao Hou has obtained the ax and tomahawk from King Zhou to command the world, and the five uncles and nine lords will follow suit. Zhao Hou has already obtained the name he wants, but this ax and tomahawk. How to use it? However, there is a point of discussion. Now, Zhao Guo has set the military rank, the first power, and annexed Lu and Wei. The intention is to conquer the princes with military power and turn them into prefectures and counties. Although this move is simple, it is a little rude. , the princes will definitely not be caught without a hand, so this road to peace is bound to be full of thorns, and I don’t know how many battles will be fought and how many people will die. Therefore, the villain thinks that Zhao Hou has another way to choose…”
"What way?"
"Using the axe to intimidate people without killing people, save and destroy them, kill the soldiers of the feudal lords, put an end to the chaos in Kyushu, make the world great, and eliminate the harm of the world. If this is the case, Zhao Hou Renyi's teacher will return to the world without expending troops! "
PS: The prototype of Mr. Dongguo's story is Mingren's "Zhongshan Wolf Biography". In the story, it is Zhao Jianzi and Zhao Yang who chase the Zhongshan wolf. It is thousands of years later, and I don't know what the Mingren has based on. In the fable, it is said that Mr. Dongguo is "the Mozi", but Mozi was just born at this time, so he cannot believe it. However, there is no need to consider so much in the novel. If the plot needs it, I will use Mr. Dongguo and treat him as a spring and autumn scholar who is not of the Mohist school, but whose ideas are ahead of the Mohist family. The various chapters of "Universal Love" add a little bit of military and righteousness to Mr. Dongguo.
