There are no fools in this world, or no civilization is a fool, otherwise they would not have continued from ancient times to the present.

But intelligence and wisdom are completely different things, but some people will confuse the concepts of the two.

If we use the traditional wisdom of Chinese civilization, intelligence is "art" and wisdom is "Tao". The two seem similar, but there are huge differences.

Intelligence may be a manifestation of IQ or talent in a certain aspect, but wisdom often requires huge life experience and a higher level of strategic vision.

The smarter a person is without perfect guidance, the stronger the damage this intelligence will destroy him, and will eventually lead him to the brink of self-destruction, because his blind self-confidence will make him arrogant and proud, become arrogant, and only believe in his own judgment.

In Zhao Zhen's eyes, Ren Qingdong is such a person. He always hopes to mediate the relationship with his own intelligence and the relationship between the Song Dynasty and Tubo. It sounds reasonable to say all kinds of theories, but in front of Zhao Zhen, this is just a means of lobbying, and all the words are "blank checks" have no practical meaning at all.

The simplest thing is that Ren Qingdong requested a long-term trade relationship between the Kangba people and the Song people, but he did not mention Zhao Zhen's request for the Kangba people to move inwardly.

This is a bit clever and clever.

"Since you have said so much, you hope to send the young men from the Kangba tribe to study in the Song Dynasty, hope to be harmonious with the Song Dynasty forever, and hope that the venue I opened in Chengdu Prefecture will never be closed. Why don't you want to move to the Song Dynasty?"

"It's not that I, Kangba, don't want to move inward, but that I have been waiting for a long time to live on the plateau and cannot stand the climate of the Central Plains. Once I get down to the plateau, I will feel sleepy, have hyperemetic appetite, and swollen lower limbs. How can I stay in the Central Plains for a long time?"

Zhao Zhen smiled and shook his head: "I didn't expect that you, a wise man in Kangba, are quite a thief! When people from the plateau come to the Central Plains, they will have these discomforts you said, but as long as you live for a long time, eat reasonably, and exercise your muscles and bones more, you will not have such symptoms over time... Your statement is not appropriate, and I am not asking all of you Kangba people to move inward!"

The so-called "wise man" naturally has a calmness that is beyond ordinary people. After Ren Qingdong's lies were exposed by Zhao Zhen, he was not frightened, but explained to Zhao Zhen again: "Officials, the elderly, weak, women and children explain to me, Kangba's family, and their families moved to the Central Plains. How can Kangba's warriors be at ease? The longing will defeat the pride in their hearts and defeat their hard backbone!"

Zhao Zhen was helpless and looked at Renqing and said, "Don't you know the military system of my Song Dynasty? The soldiers recruited soldiers were all four years away from home and could not meet their families for four years. Moreover, although I moved to Kangba people, I did not want to move them to a distant place. I just entered Sichuan Road. Why are you Kangba people not even my Song Dynasty's stinky baby? Then I really have to doubt whether you Kangba people are eagles on the plateau and outstanding warriors!"

Zhao Zhen has never been a reckless person. If you debate with him, you must be cautious. Zhang Jian suffered a great loss at his hands back then, let alone facing a so-called "wise man".

Ren Qingdong was a little confused for a moment. Unexpectedly, after a long time of thinking, the seemingly perfect excuse was defeated by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty in a few words, even caught him off guard.

Zhao Zhen leaned casually on the brocade bed and stretched his waist completely regardless of his image: "Do you know why I asked you to accompany me?"

"Renqingdong doesn't know."

"I am telling you that I did not force you, and I must let you turn to the Song Dynasty and become a citizen of the Song Dynasty!

You can make a choice, either choose the Song Dynasty, choose Tubo, or help each other, and the Kangba people still live their original life."

Is there such a good thing?

Ren Qingdong was a little confused for a moment. The officials of the Song Dynasty were merciful, but it was impossible to be so kind, right?

"How do I choose if I am a Kangba?"

Seeing Ren Qingdong's tentative tone, Zhao Zhen laughed: "This is naturally. I am the emperor of the Song Dynasty. I have a golden word and a jade word that makes me a constitution!"

Just as Ren Qingdong was about to speak, Zhao Zhen spoke again: "Your choice is your business, and what I should do is my business, and there is not much connection. You should understand that the most common saying of me is "People should be responsible for their own choices."

Renqingdong was stunned by Zhao Zhen's words, and his heart turned sharply and said, "Renqingdong knows how to choose. From then on, I, Kangba people, are willing to become a citizen of the Song Dynasty and be under your rule by the official family. Renqingdong has no other request, but I, Kangba people, can have the day to return to the plateau again... I hope Your Majesty will fulfill it!"

Zhao Zhen nodded: "It's so good. When the plateau is pacified, I will give you preferential treatment to the people of Kangba. If you still want to return to the plateau, then go back. The Tubo Plateau will also be the plateau of my Song Dynasty. What's wrong with it?"

Ren Qingdong stroked his chest with his right hand and saluted in the car and said, "The official family is wise!"

Zhao Zhen suddenly patted his shoulder: "This time I left Beijing to travel to the West and see how I am in the Song Dynasty now. As an emperor, how could I not know the situation of my country? Since you are here, I will accompany me to visit all over the Song Dynasty!"

Ren Qingdong smiled and said, "I am grateful!"

After he left, Zhao Zhen sighed slightly that Ren Qingdong's thoughts changed so quickly that he unexpectedly. He originally planned to deal with him, but he did not expect that he was so "knowing the current affairs".

Since he claimed to be a "member", it was to show his attitude of surrendering to the Song Dynasty, humble and respectful. This was the pride that a Kangba people gave up, and it was also the pride that all Kangba people gave up.

Ren Qingdong had no choice but to surrender. Zhao Zhen's words seemed simple and lenient, but in fact they made it difficult for him to make a choice everywhere.

Zhao Zhen’s seemingly light words, but the threats are everywhere.

Although Ren Qingdong gave the right to choose himself, Ren Qingdong had no choice. The last sentence "You must be responsible for your choice" is a "sword".

What other choice can the Kangba people have? Choosing to turn to Tubo? That will inevitably make the Kangba people pawns of the Tubo people. The place where the Kangba people live is between the Song Dynasty and Tubo, in a corner west of Sichuan Road!

The debate in Chengdu Prefecture will definitely be closed, and the Song Dynasty will not give any benefits to the Kangba people. If the Song Dynasty wanted to use troops to Tubo at that time, the Kangba people would definitely be the first to bear the brunt and become a stumbling block on the Song Dynasty's march.

The Kangba people did not intend to be victims between the Song Dynasty and the Tubo from the beginning. On the contrary, they wanted to gain benefits from it.

If the two did not help each other, would the Song Dynasty and Tubo be able to tolerate the Kangba people who watched the show? Obviously, there would be even more so. No dynasty could allow the Kangba people to stay out of the matter.
