Chapter 465: Confucian Dissatisfaction

"Zhuangzi is really a talent! Your Majesty! ”

An official who was hidden in the court took the opportunity to step forward and said: "Zhuangzi has managed the lacquer garden in just two months, and the lacquer garden is so good, please your lord!" When reusing Zhuangzi. ”

"Oh?" Song Chengjun, the king of the Song Kingdom, looked a little stunned.

"Your Majesty! At the beginning, the Qiyuan people jointly played a petition and requested the appointment of Zhuangzi as the official of Qiyuan. Your Majesty! Today's lacquer garden is so good under the governance of Zhuangzi! Taoism rules the world, and all the people are soldiers! There are as many soldiers as there are soldiers. There are tens of thousands of troops in Qiyuan with a population of tens of thousands. South Korea has only 20,000 enemies, where is the opponent of Qiyuan, naturally there is no return......"

Song Jue Chengjun waved his hand and asked, "That?" My Song country has a population of more than 400,000 people, according to Aiqing, if it is managed by Taoist thought? There are more than 400,000 troops? ”

"Yes!" The official who had hidden himself in the court replied.

"Ahh Ha ha! Then if my Song Kingdom really has more than 400,000 troops, then it is not the first military power in the Great Zhou Dynasty? ”

"Yes!"

"When the princes of today, that country has an army of 400,000? Chu? Even if the state of Chu is a national soldier, it is only more than 300,000. Wei! Today's hegemon, after the whole country, is only 200,000. Hahaha! ”

In fact! At that time, the actual population of the Song Kingdom was not more than 400,000. Song Quecheng deliberately said more. If the population is small, it will be even more inadequate for your national strength. The population is small, and the number of troops is naturally not much.

With a population of just over 400,000 in a country, how many soldiers can he have? 50,000 troops is the limit.

For a small country like the Song Kingdom, the general army was concentrated in the capital, mainly to protect the king. As for the borders, only the main checkpoints are guarded. In most places, there are no garrisons. Only when the war broke out, did they increase the number of troops in that place, and only then did they urgently recruit troops in the civilian population.

It is precisely because of this that the border of the Song State is uninhabited. The state cannot guarantee the safety of its people, and who wants to live on the border?

"As for this Zhuangzi?" Song Quechengjun thought for a while and said, "Then mention him as a state!" Pick it up! ”

Song Chengjun said, and held the palm of his right hand up. What he meant was: to raise Zhuangzi a little from the position of the town official of Qiyuan to the position of the state yi.

"Your Majesty! There is an objection! ”

At this time, a person flashed out from the side and bowed his hand and said: "Zhuangzi is not only not reusable, but also should be punished!" ”

As soon as these words came out, all four were shocked!

Song Chengjun's younger brother Dai Yan stood at the bottom of the hall. He is also against his brother's desire to mention Zhuangzi as a state town! It is true that Zhuangzi is a talent, but he can't be reused by his brother. If you want to use it, you have to promote it.

Dai Yan was worried that if his brother Song Juechengjun kept reusing Zhuangzi, it would be a big problem, and his plan with his cousin Dai Daguan would be frustrated. Zhuangzi rules the world, Taoism rules the world, where is there still an opportunity for people like him to show their faces.

Well, now someone is standing up against it! Is! God help me!

"Why?" Song Chengjun turned his face gloomy on the spot and asked.

Above the court, everyone turned their eyes to the person who spoke, puzzled by what he meant.

If it weren't for Zhuangzi's Taoist ideology to govern the Qiyuan, if the Qiyuan was not a soldier for all the people, would South Korea be able to strike the army so quickly? Can Wei withdraw its troops so quickly? Zhao Guo learned that South Korea had lost more than 30,000 soldiers, and he was so frightened that he pulled out the camp overnight.

If it weren't for Zhuangzi, he would have been able to dismantle the plan of the Three Jin Alliances to defeat the Song so quickly.

If not Zhuangzi? How many people are going to die in the Song Kingdom?

The current Song State, when Korea captured four small cities, had less than 1,000 dead and wounded.

And in Qiyuan, not even a single villager died. In the later pursuit, only a few dozen people were wounded.

How can a hero like Zhuangzi be great? There are no rewards, on the contrary! Still punished? There is no heavenly reason! This is?

"Your Majesty!" The man said: "Zhuangzi has made some achievements in governing the lacquer garden! But this achievement is not enough to make up for his mistakes! ”

"What do you mean by that?" When Song Juechengjun heard this, he was a little angry, and his tone seemed very stiff.

"Taoism governs the world, violates the Zhou system and violates the Zhou etiquette! Contrary to the hearts of the people of the world! ”

"What do you say?" Song Juechengjun was even more annoyed, and his voice was much louder.

I thought to myself: Aren't you deliberately framing? Nima Di! You are an official in our Song Kingdom, what achievements have you made?

All the ministers knew that Song Jun was angry, but no one stepped forward to stop him. They wanted to see what the hell this guy was trying to say. Why did Zhuangzi violate the Zhou system and Zhou etiquette? If you want to frame someone, then wait for jail!

"Taoism is the art of curing the mind, and it cannot govern the world! To govern the country and the world, we must stand in the perspective of the country and the world. Taoism, on the other hand, is the art of curing the mind, which divides the country and the world into individuals. Imagine! How can we govern a country well from this perspective?

Your Majesty! If Zhuangzi were to govern the Song Kingdom! That would be tantamount to disintegrating and dividing our Song Kingdom! Your Majesty! Please think twice! ”

Song Juechengjun said angrily: "What about the lacquer garden? What is the situation in the lacquer garden? Say! ”

"Your Majesty! This is exactly what your subordinates want to say to your lord! The lacquer garden is only a very small place, and according to the Taoist method, it can be governed. It's like a family, with few members of the family, under the auspices of the parents, it can be united. And when it comes to the family, it's different! Isn't a family also a family? Isn't it? Your Majesty!

It's the same! Taoism can only manage a small place, just like a parent manages a family. Let the parents manage the family, and the problem will come! Your Majesty! So! Zhuangzi can only be a small official in the lacquer garden, but not the governor of the state! Your Majesty! ”

"Nonsense!" Song Chengjun waved his hand at the man in disgust and motioned to get out of the way.

The other ministers in the court also whispered on the side. To say that this person is completely deliberately slandering Zhuangzi, what is the truth of what he is saying? I can't say why, it's all illogical inference.

"Your Majesty! What His Majesty said is true! No lies! His Majesty's statement that Zhuangzi violated the Zhou system is not unfounded! His Majesty also said that Zhuangzi not only violated the Zhou system, but also violated the system of the Song State. What is the Lacquer Garden? The Lacquer Garden is a place that defies the authority of the king.

In the Qiyuan, we, the Song Kingdom, have never really managed effectively. At the lacquer garden, we can't increase taxes. In the lacquer garden, we could not conscript. In the Qiyuan conscription, our Song Kingdom must spend silver to buy heads. There is a lacquer garden! We cannot give an order for the unification of the whole country.

Today's lacquer garden! In our Song Kingdom, there is only one nominal town. Their function is very small, and they collect taxes every year.

Your Majesty! The lacquer garden nominally belongs to the Song Kingdom, but we, the Song Kingdom, you, the king, can't manage it effectively......"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

Dai Yan saw that the opportunity had come, so he hurriedly stepped forward and seconded it.

"The minister also seconded it!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

When Dai Yan's people saw it, they hurriedly stepped forward to "second".

"The ministers seconded it!"

In the court, some people saw that the wind was making the rudder, and when they saw that there were more people seconding the proposal, they also stood up and seconded it.

"Your Majesty! As the king of a country, you should have supreme authority! The people there in the lacquer garden despise authority. Contempt for authority is contempt for the king, according to the weekly system, weekly etiquette! Be punished! ……”

"Punished?"

Before the man's words fell, the court was boiling again!
