Huxiang is the one who comes up with the intention;

The speaker is the one who understands the image.

The meaning is expressed in images, and the images are expressed in words.

Chen Gong's words come from an article in "The Book of Changes: Ming Xiang", which is the meaning of the eleven hexagrams in the Book of Changes.

It seems that Chen Gong, who is well versed in the Taoist Heart Sutra, has figured out something!

certainly…

The "xiang" here does not refer to the "elephant", but to the "four elephants and eight trigrams".

But, that's not important.

Because for Lu Xun, he knew every one of these words, and he could roughly understand them together into words, but... it turned into a sentence, and he was a little confused!

"Bo Yan..." Chen Gong didn't explain. He turned around and patted Lu Xun on the shoulder. "You don't have to worry about this matter. Gong Ji and I will take care of it. You just need to study Shanyue's habits. The art of war against Shanyue will be of great use very soon!"

Chen Gong said this with full confidence.

For the Jiangdong Lu family, the problem of money and food has now been solved.

Next, the biggest problem before us is power. We have to find a way to enter Jiangdong's core power circle, and use this as a basis to get more troops.

Still the same sentence...

Because of Jiangdong's special military system.

If the Lu family gets tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from the Sun family, then these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will belong to the Lu family. Even if Lu Xun dies in battle, Lu Ji will inherit it!

If Lu Ji dies in battle, the other heirs of the Lu family will continue to live on and on, and there will be no reason to return them.

And these soldiers and horses will also become loyal members of the Lu family!

From this point of view…

When the Lu family's soldiers and horses are mastered to a certain extent, they will be able to dominate the political power of Jiangdong. The most direct way to find soldiers and horses is to enter the core circle of power in Jiangdong.

Giving the elephant to Cao Cao was a plan of Chen Gong, with the purpose of helping Sun Yi gain power during the dispute between Sun Quan and Sun Yi.

The conquest of Shanyue was the only way for the Lu family to obtain a large number of soldiers and horses in a short period of time.

Chen Gong is playing a big game of chess.

He thought, in the Central Plains... both Cao Cao and Lu Yu should be able to understand his move, right?

"hehe…"

Thinking of this, Chen Gong's lips curled up into a cheerful smile.

Lu Xun tapped his forehead lightly, feeling that he was listening to everything you said today. Although there were still many questions, Chen Gong's achievements during his time as Lu Mansion's staff were obvious to all. He didn't say anything, and Lu Xun couldn't. Ask more carefully.

"Then it's all thanks to Mr. Chen."

"Don't worry, Boyan." Chen Gong still showed a confident smile. He raised his head and looked towards the north...

He said with emotion: "Bo Yan, the current situation in Jiangdong is much simpler than that in the Central Plains and in the north. Everything is under control!"

Speaking of this, Chen Gong's eyes flashed with light.

With these two obedient Lu family members? It seems that everything has become much simpler!

…

…

On the outskirts of Xudu, within Huangzhuang.

The sound of the piano plucks.

"Hahaha…"

Emperor Liu Xie's sad laughter resounded.

"I had a great chat with my brother-in-law today. My brother-in-law's words were like enlightenment. But there is one thing that I don't understand..."

"Why does my brother-in-law say that whether it is the Prime Minister, me, or the people of the world, we all have a common enemy? Who is this enemy?"

Lu Yu and Liu Xie chatted for a full hour and had a great time.

Lu Yu talked a lot about philosophy to Liu Xie. These topics were like bowls of "poisonous chicken soup", just like Lu Yu was forcibly brainwashed in the circle of friends in his previous life every day...

and…

These "poisonous chicken soups for the soul" are particularly effective for people who are in confusion. This was the first time for Emperor Liu Xie to hear it, so... he felt enlightened!

only…

Lu Yu mentioned another topic, which attracted his attention even more.

That is the common enemy!

The so-called...the Han world, whether it is the emperor, the prime minister, or the common people...their common enemy.

Now the topic has been brought here.

Lu Yu opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, this enemy is too powerful. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is your Majesty's father-killing enemy. Isn't it better not to mention it today?"

kill…

The enemy who killed his father?

After Lu Yu finished speaking, Liu Xie and Liu Xue were stunned. Their father was the Ling Emperor, but... in the memory, his father died of illness? Wasn't he killed?

this…

Before Liu Xie and Liu Xue could speak, Lu Yu's words came out first.

"Your Majesty, the princess will probably wonder where the revenge for killing her father came from? Didn't the late emperor pass away on his death bed? It's just that... Your Majesty and the princess have ignored a huge question, that is, what is the disease of the late emperor?"

Look at the expressions of Liu Xie and Liu Xue.

For a moment, Lu Yu suddenly felt.

Perhaps in the future, when it comes to dealing with aristocratic families and fundamentally eliminating the ills of this world, that is, aristocratic families monopolizing land and resources, making the people miserable... Both the emperor and the princess can be fought for.

As the saying goes, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests!

"Brother-in-law, you might as well say it directly if you have something to say!" Liu Xie asked with eyebrows raised.

Lu Yu slowly stood up and stood with his hands behind his back.

"Your Majesty, this topic will take a long time to talk about, and we can't finish it in a day or a night. However, your Majesty may wish to listen to and think about some of the questions!"

Lu Yu slowly opened his mouth. "Why did the once majestic Han Empire established by Emperor Guangwu gradually decline? What did your Majesty and the ministers ignore? What factors drove the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Dong Zhuo's entry into the capital, and the separatism of the heroes, so that

The power of the Han Dynasty has fallen? Or even...what is affecting today's trajectory and the course of future history?"

At this point, Lu Yu paused.

"If we don't sort out these things, then we will just talk about war, annexation, civil servants, military generals... all of them are just scratching the surface, and only one leaf is missed!"

"If Your Majesty wants to know the truth about the death of the late Emperor Long Yu, you might as well try to explore, search, and answer the questions I just mentioned."

Lu Yu finally gave up.

He understands.

If you want to guide the emperor to stand against those aristocratic families who monopolize land and resources, it will not be done overnight, nor can it be done with just a few words.

Rather than let Lu Yu explain these things, it is better to raise questions and let His Majesty find out for himself!

Of course, how did Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty die? There are different opinions!

But as long as you check it, no matter how you check it, you can't escape the eternal topic of the family! The noble family!

The power held by the nobles of the Han Empire was so great that it is simply unimaginable...

From the Han emperors who died young, we can also get a glimpse of everything!

In the final analysis, the shortcomings of the Han Dynasty appear to be the debauchery of the "Second Emperor Huan Ling", who opened a Western residence to sell officials and win titles... But in fact, the Second Emperor Huan Ling was just a scapegoat!

The only thing to blame is this era...this era in which the land is in the hands of the gentry and the right to speak is in the hands of the gentry!

certainly…

If we talk about these in depth, we can’t finish them in one day and one night!

Lu Yu simply left this "pass" to Liu Xie and let him figure it out and understand it on his own!

now…

Liu Xie's eyes widened, as if he had heard something incredible.

The late emperor was called fatuous by many people, and the world even called the "two emperors Huan Ling" debauched and extravagant!

However, the answers to these questions mentioned by Lu Yu seemed to lead to many unknown secrets.

The truth behind the death of the late Emperor Long Yu...

Or maybe it is said that the late emperor was not really stupid!

These...Liu Xie is so interested!
To be continued...
