Chapter 208 Jian Ye asked three questions
Situ knew what Lin Shuying meant, and he had the intention to win him over, but he also hoped to cause discord among the monarchs and ministers of Yan State, so that Lin Feng would be jealous of himself.
It's a pity that Lin Shuying's wishful thinking was wrong, Lin Feng is an extraordinary person, he is not suspicious of employing people, and he does not need to use suspicious people, otherwise, he will not be out for a long time, and he can rest assured that he will hand over the government to the queen, and take care of the country and himself.
In his opinion, a wise monarch, even if he and his courtiers cannot become close friends, should at least be friends, and they should be strangers, or enemies who are very angry when they see each other.
At this time, Lin Shuying was asked by Situ and was choked speechless, if she continued to make up reasons and said bad things about Lin Feng behind her back, it would only make Situ look down on her, lose her monarchial demeanor, and show that she was careful to live the belly of a gentleman, which in turn affected her good impression in the other party's heart.
If one day, the Yan Kingdom is really ruined, a talent like Situ may not turn to serve the Song Kingdom.
What's more, from this sentence, she can also see that Situ Tie is determined to live and die with Yan Guo, Yan Guoxing, he is a very human minister, Yan Guo is dead, and he has become a minister of the country.
Such a person looks stubborn and stubborn, like a stubborn donkey, leading and not leaving, he has to rush away, and he doesn't know the current affairs, but this is also where the charm of the other party's personality lies.
He has his own ideals and ambitions, works hard for his ideals and ambitions, and at the same time defends his ideals, his thoughts are not complicated, and he refuses to become complicated!
is just a simple person, a person who is willing to break his bones for ideals and beliefs.
Therefore, Lin Shuying didn't speak, but Jian Ye, the left doctor next to him, opened his mouth and said to Situ: "Lord Situ." The matter of Emperor Yan, the empress is not easy to discuss, but we are courtiers. But you can say a few words to each other, and if you don't have talent, there are a few fallacies, you can listen to them, and then seriously consider whether you are willing to come to the Song Kingdom to display your ambitions. ”
Lin Shuying chuckled faintly and straightened the ends of her hair. thinks that Jian Ye is a little boring for himself, and most of them will hit a wall on Situ.
One has ideals and ambitions. People who are determined and do not change their beliefs, how can they change their long-term persistence because of the words of outsiders?
But. Situ and Jian Ye each have their own masters. On behalf of Yan Song respectively, she also wanted to see how these two would argue with each other.
Situ didn't have Lin Shuying's idea of watching a play, if he participated in the debate, he would be a performer, and he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.
He traveled thousands of miles to face the cold wind. Missed the opportunity to spend Chinese New Year's Eve with his family to come to Song Kingdom. It was not to listen to the other party belittle Yan Guo and Lin Feng. It's not to listen to Jian Ye's nonsense, what kind of drawbacks does Yan Guo have, the ministers of Yan Guo know it well, and they will have to change their mistakes, and they will not be encouraged.
However, there is a sentence that the lord is worried about humiliating the lord and humiliating the minister, if Jian Ye has nothing to do, deliberately slandering Yan Guo and belittling Lin Feng, today's matter must be said seriously.
He doesn't cause trouble, but he is not afraid of things, if anyone treats the Yan people as monkeys, he doesn't mind raising his hand and chopping the other party's dog paws.
However, before Jian Ye's foul words were spoken, Situ still behaved gently and elegantly, with a gentlemanly demeanor, and said very kindly: "Since Lord Jian's words and Yan Guo have shortcomings, please ask Lord Jian to testify, and I would like to hear the details." ”
Lin Shuying glanced at Situ, and then at Jian Ye, also wanting to see what Jian Ye said.
Jian Ye took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "In the next opinion, Yan Guo currently has three difficulties, these three difficulties are not solved, Situ, it is better for you to come to my Song Kingdom, otherwise, one day, Yan Guosheji is in danger, and you will also become a minister of the fallen country, which is very bad for you!" ”
Situ raised his head, looked at Jian Ye and said sharply: "Lord Jian, Situ's personal honor and disgrace, you don't have to worry about it, if you want to talk about it, just talk about the right thing, if you only talk about Situ's personal honor and disgrace, in the next suggestion, let's turn the page and discuss the right thing." ”
Jian Ye had a smug look on his face, coughed twice to clear his throat, and said, "Since Situ doesn't care about personal honor and disgrace, then, I will be blunt, I hope Situ still doesn't mind." ”
"Listen up!"
"Yan is weak, perennial war everywhere, as if you forget the belligerent will die note, two years of Yan south and north war, seems to have a small achievement, expanded the territory, increased the population, but the foundation is unstable, rapid expansion of several times the land, officials can not yet take office, only to take military control, you know, civil officials and military generals, there are many differences in governing the country, civil officials are gentle, military generals are violent, in this way, Yan seems to be a surge in strength on the surface, but buried hidden dangers, if it continues to expand externally, it may enhance its strength, but if it is defeated, The great empire will also fall apart in an instant. Situ, do you think that's right? ”
Jian Ye looked calm and said seriously, his words were not untargeted, deliberately slandering Yan Guo, on the contrary, this was a problem he found in Yan Guo after concentrating on research.
Situ listened patiently, and found that Jian Ye did not talk nonsense, but said the disadvantages of Yan Guo in one sentence, and sighed in his heart, this guy is worthy of being one of the two major advisers around the empress, and it is not unreasonable for the empress to take him by her side to talk about the exchange of land in different places.
However, he was not humble and said: "Well, Dr. Jian is conclusive, Yan Guo is indeed short of talents at present, and many states and counties still have military generals to govern, and there are many drawbacks.
But, Doctor Jian, the belligerent will die, and there is a sentence behind that forgetting the war will be dangerous, have you forgotten, the battle of the great world, the melee of the vassal states, as if the big fish eats the small fish, the Yan State does not expand, and takes advantage of the situation to rise, and it will eventually be annexed by the Zhao and Song countries.
Therefore, the Yan State must chase angrily, spare no effort, see the seams, and do everything possible to expand the territory and enhance the combat effectiveness of the army.
Of course, what Master Jian said, with the expansion of Yan Kingdom, the ills will become more and more serious, and if you avoid medical treatment, it will only make Yan Kingdom feel pain.
However, the monarch did not see, Yan State in order to change the insufficient, promulgated the imperial examination system, many of the princes and countries were not treated well, rushed to Yan State to seek work, the new policy was implemented, Yan State to seek merit order was introduced, more and more accelerated the flow of scholars into Yan State.
I expect that the shortcomings of the lack of literati in the Yan Kingdom will be solved in a short period of one year or two years. What's more, there is a wonderful saying in my emperor, the country must be rich and strong, the army must be strong, what is the most important, talent.
Emperor Yan can still understand the importance of talents, and he will not let the problem of the lack of talents in Yan continue to stay, thus causing the disaster of destroying the country. Therefore, Dr. Jian's reason was not enough for me to leave Yan Kingdom. ”
Situ is neither humble nor arrogant, what he said is reasonable and well-founded, and he completely attacked the problems pointed out by Jian Ye, showing that Yan Guo knows where his shortcomings are, and there is no need for outsiders to point fingers at Yan's internal affairs.
This time, Lin Shuying, who was holding the attitude of watching the drama next to her, also felt that Jian Ye's words were reasonable, she remembered that many empires in later generations, in the long-term foreign wars, were invincible in official affairs and invincible, but when the war was blocked, or the commander was killed, the huge empire would instantly fall apart and fall apart.
However, Situ's answer has already shown that Lin Feng is aware of this problem at present, and is trying his best to correct it, if he can make up for the deficiency in time, he will definitely get through it safely, if he can't make up for the shortage, I am afraid that the Yan Kingdom will die in civil strife.
However, she believes that Lin Feng will definitely not let the country that he survive in order to decline and perish, if there is a shortcoming, he will definitely try his best to make up for it, and at the moment, it seems that it is not too late to make amends.
Jian Ye noticed that his words failed to make Situ moved, but he was not angry, let alone give up, and continued: "Yan Kingdom used to be the overlord of the north, but for hundreds of years, the rivers have been declining, and for hundreds of years, they have been poor and weak, and the people are struggling to make a living. Now laid down several times the country, but the Yan country is vast and sparsely populated, may not be able to fully reclaim, bring waste of land, reduce taxes, not to mention, the source of soldiers will not be able to supply continuously, even if the Yan country does not die and internal troubles, several years of war, but also because of the lack of soldiers, fall into a place where there are no soldiers, at that time, years of hard work, the great empire, will also die in external troubles, this statement, whether it is worth Lord Situ, turned to the Song State. ”
Situ chuckled, he didn't care, the population problem was indeed the main problem facing Yan Guo, not long ago, he discussed this issue with Lin Feng, Yan Guo abolished slavery in order to release the population and improve this problem.
At this moment, he was confident, and said lightly: "It's still not good, I think that Lord Jian still doesn't know Yan Guo, and he only knows the skin of Yan Guo, but he doesn't understand the root cause."
It is true that the population of Yan is insufficient, and the source of troops will become a major problem in the future, but the whole of Yan State adopts the method of feeding the war by war, not only plundering the wealth and land of the enemy country in the war, but also plundering the population of the enemy country and absorbing those prisoners who are willing to serve the Yan State.
Incorporate them into the army, transform them into warriors, and open up territory for the Yan Kingdom. You don't see, Yan has gathered hundreds of thousands of troops in two years, and how many are really Yan people, the Rong troops in Bishan, the Zheng troops, and the Donghu troops who are heading to Bishan, these troops together are as many as 300,000, which should not be underestimated.
What's more, Yan attaches great importance to the people, constantly absorbs refugees from vassal countries, strives for the other party to take root in Yan country, and abolishes slavery in the country, releases the population, and strives to change the population shortage. ”
Looking at Situ Man's indifferent appearance, Jian Ye was a little unhappy, the two problems he said were the main problems that Yan Guo was currently facing, and any one of them would make the country that Yan Guo's monarchs and ministers had worked so hard to run turn into historical dust in an instant.
However, this guy is not easy to dissolve, if it is not for the temporary discussion of this topic, he has very reason to suspect that Situ is playing tricks and struggling.
With a bit of anger, Jian Ye continued: "Situ, the Yan Kingdom is a land of projectiles, sandwiched between Zhao, Zheng and Song, any one of the Three Kingdoms is enough to destroy the Yan Kingdom, I think, the loss of the Yan Kingdom is enough for you to serve the Song Kingdom, right?" ”
