After Yang Jian returned to Daying, he seemed in a daze for a while. Even the trusted generals around him didn't dare to ask, because there was something frightening in Yang Jian's eyes from time to time. No one can be sure that if he speaks hastily, it will cause trouble.
others dare not
Dare to be free
Da Zizai doesn't seem to have gotten used to his new clothes yet, he always looks down from time to time when he walks, maybe he thinks the style of the clothes is too ugly, maybe he thinks the clothes are too fancy, maybe it's because... this clothes and He really doesn't fit. In the Sui Dynasty, the emperor respected the bright yellow, and the courtiers respected the purple. How many people dreamed of the purple brocade clothes, but they couldn't bear it in Dazizi.
Walking into Yang Jian's big tent, Da Zizai didn't speak but went straight to the side and stood still, with his eyes slightly lowered, looking at his nose and heart.
"I'm thinking, who is right, you or Fang Jie?"
After being silent for a while, Yang Jian said a word, but his eyes wandered outside the window.
"Fang Jie is right."
Da Zizi replied with a smile.
Yang Jian looked at Da Zizai in surprise, as if he didn't expect Da Zizai to answer like this.
"The minister is also right."
Da Zi Zi's smile is always so gentle, if a woman sees his smile, she will be fascinated. When a person like him walks on the street, he doesn't know how many Huaichun women will look sideways. In fact, Dazi had hardly seen a woman before he went down the mountain, and he had no interest in women.
He rarely leaves Daxueshan.
"Right or wrong depends on where you look."
Da Zizai said: "Your Majesty can't tell whether the minister is right or Fang Jie is right, because your majesty uses his own eyes to judge his own thinking, and what the minister and Fang explained seems to make sense, so your majesty can't tell. But from another point of view, if His Majesty regards himself as Fang Xie, then he can be sure that what Fang Xie said is correct, because Fang Xie is thinking for himself. If His Majesty regards himself as a minister, then You can be sure that the minister is right, because the minister is also selfish."
Yang Jian nodded: "Your words are very true."
Da Zizai said: "I have never denied my thoughts in front of Your Majesty. I turn to Your Majesty because of Your Majesty's strength, and what I do can be prettified to say that it is all for Your Majesty's consideration. In fact, I am still thinking of myself. But... I think about myself, isn't it because I want His Majesty to be stronger? Only when Your Majesty is stronger, I will get more. Therefore, there is no contradiction between my selfishness and my public heart for Your Majesty."
"You mean, Fang Xie can't be trusted?"
Yang Jian asked.
Da Zizai said: "If your majesty believes in him, there is nothing wrong with it. It's just that I always feel that Fang Jie really doesn't need to think about your majesty. I don't believe it. Some people in this world are really not motivated by profit, especially those who live in the world. A high-ranking person with a heavy army in his hands. I believe that Fang Jie, who mobilizes hundreds of thousands of troops, is ultimately more for himself."
Yang Jian was silent for a while, then nodded: "This is also to the point."
Seeing that Yang Jian didn't object, Da Zizi smiled and asked: "Then what is your Majesty still worried about?"
"you."
Yang Jian's answer was straightforward: "I'm thinking, Fang Jie is for himself, and you are also for yourself... So Fang Xie may lie, why can't you lie?"
Da Zizai was slightly taken aback, but he didn't expect Yang Jian's thinking direction to be so biased.
"It seems that His Majesty was moved by Fang's explanation."
Da Zizai sighed softly, the slight sadness on his face would make any woman who saw him feel distressed.
"yes."
Yang Jian didn't deny it: "If what you said is true, then I have to fight Fang to the death. If what Fang explained is true, I might lose half of Eastern Xinjiang. So no matter whether you are true or Fang Jie is true, Yes, I don't seem to need to feel happy."
"Actually, what His Majesty is thinking about is Fang Jie's firearms battalion."
Da Zizai said: "Your Majesty actually knows very well in his heart that the reason for not making a decision is because His Majesty is worried that Fang Jie's Firearms Battalion is really stronger than Shengtu. If that is the case, the Iron Armored Army will have no advantage at all. Fang Jie There are at least 50,000 fine cavalry, this cavalry has amazing combat power, once a decisive battle is fought, these 50,000 fine cavalry will definitely pose a great threat to His Majesty's troops."
"so… "
Da Zizi changed his tone: "What your Majesty is undecided about is not military matters, but whether to kill Fang Xie or not. If Fang Xie is killed, there won't be so many irritating things."
The corners of Yang Jian's brows raised slightly, he seemed to dislike the feeling that his thoughts were seen through. That's right, rather than saying that Dong Jiang was worried about Fang Jie's firearms battalion, what he was thinking about was whether or not to kill Fang Jie. Killing, reluctant, the hundreds of thousands of elites plus elite cavalry and firearm battalion, the delicacies of mountains and seas are as attractive. If you don't kill him, Fang Jie will be a disaster sooner or later, if you keep him and let him develop and grow, it will be even more uncomfortable when you face him again in the future.
"Actually, it's not just a solution."
Yang Jian sighed a long time: "In the final analysis, what I'm worried about is firearms."
He looked out of the window and said, "If foreigners really have power a hundred times stronger than Shengtu as Fang Jie said, then I really don't have much chance of winning. I have slept in the mausoleum for two hundred years, and these two hundred years have changed. It’s so big. How can such a dreadful weapon appear in time, how can it be reassuring?”
"Then get rid of these things completely!"
Da Zizai said word by word; "Your Majesty is worried about firearms. He is worried that once this kind of thing is widely equipped in the army, the days when the Great Sui army has always been bloody on the knife edge will be over. And this kind of thing is not just to strengthen soldiers. The ability to kill may also affect the entire rivers and lakes."
Yang Jian knew what Da Zi Zai meant, because he was also thinking about it.
"Once the firearms really replace the horizontal knives and feather arrows, then not only these cold weapons will be replaced, but also living people... practitioners."
Da Zizai said in a soft tone: "A practitioner with average qualifications can only reach the fourth or fifth rank after ten years of hard work. Even the outstanding ones can only reach the seventh or eighth rank in ten years. He has achieved a very high level of cultivation in a short period of time, but this kind of genius is very rare."
"The common people have a natural awe for practitioners, which is because of their personal strength. Practitioners can easily kill ordinary people, but it is extremely difficult to be killed by ordinary people. Once firearms replace the current weapons, then Even ordinary people can no longer be in awe of practitioners... because the cultivation base of the fourth and fifth ranks can't stop firearms at all."
Da Zizai said: "Thinking about it makes me uneasy."
Yang Jian's eyes gradually brightened up, and the haze in his eyes gradually dissipated a lot: "So...firearms are really a good thing, I don't need respected practitioners, because I am the only one who suffers. People's respect is enough. Relatively speaking, I prefer people to rely on external forces to do things rather than their own abilities."
Da Zizai suddenly understood what Yang Jian meant, so he was a little sad.
He didn't expect that his words actually made Yang Jian go out in another direction, and he went a long way in one step.
So he was a little disappointed and a little annoyed.
"Your Majesty... the power of firearms is not fixed, just like the cultivation level of practitioners is not fixed. I am sure that practitioners will become stronger and stronger with their own efforts. And firearms will become more and more powerful with the use of them. If there are more and more, then its future will naturally become bigger and bigger. The direction of people's progress is no longer to become a practitioner, but to spend more thoughts and energy to make firearms more powerful, until they reach …firearms can kill even great practitioners.”
After Da Zizai said this, Yang Jian's joy obviously faded.
"Your Majesty."
Da Zizai sighed: "The biggest change brought about by firearms is that ordinary people lose their respect for powerful people."
Yang Jian frowned: "What do you think?"
"eradicate!"
Da Zizai said very seriously: "Your Majesty does not need ordinary people who can control firearms, but people who are ignorant enough! As long as the people are still ignorant and still respect the practitioners, then ninety-nine percent of the people in the world are still only Will obey. And once ordinary people master something that can kill practitioners... it is tantamount to opening a door that makes the world blood flow like a river."
…
…
"Xiao Fangfang, what are you thinking?"
Xiang Qingniu squeezed in through the half-open door, too lazy to reach out and push the door fully open. And the surprise on his face after he came in was so naive and even idiotic... Fang Jie only took one look at him to understand why this guy was surprised, it must be because Xiang Qingniu found that he could actually walk in without fully opening the door.
"I lost weight."
Xiang Qingniu said.
Knew it…
Fang Jie sighed helplessly: "There is a kind of person in this world who always only sees the good side. In other words, they only see the good side of themselves... Don't look around, I'm talking about you."
Xiang Qingniu shrugged his shoulders, and sat down opposite Fang Jie: "Man, living in this world is already very difficult, why do you still look down on yourself? If you look down on yourself all day long, how difficult is life?" How hard and desolate is it? It’s better to feel better about yourself, which can enhance your self-confidence.”
Fang Jie was amused by Xiang Qingniu, and the troubles in his heart eased a little.
"You came to me, definitely not to impress yourself with eloquence."
Fang explained.
Xiang Qingniu nodded: "Yes, I am not only here to impress myself with eloquence, I also come to impress my wisdom... unparalleled wisdom! According to a sage, fat people have far more wisdom than thin people , and it lasts longer... Thin people usually develop dementia at the age of fifty, but fat people don't."
Fang Jie said: "Yes, the fat man will be dumbfounded before he turns fifty."
Xiang Qingniu sat down and made himself look more serious: "I actually came to ask you, don't you feel that Dazizi is a little different?"
"What's the difference?"
Fang asked.
Xiang Qingniu snorted: "I forgot, you didn't fight him before... but I did. I still can't tell what the difference is. I just think that this Dazizi is the same as me. The one I encountered in the Dalun Temple is different, what is the difference? I can’t find the details.”
"Then what?"
Fang asked.
Xiang Qingniu leaned back: "Then it's your business. As a wise man, you can't remind the ignorant people too much, otherwise the ignorant people will never know how to develop their own brains. Then you have to think about it and figure it out. Just let me know."
"Did you witness Da Zizai being killed by King Dalun?"
Fang Jie asked suddenly.
Xiang Qingniu nodded: "Don't you believe my big piercing eyes that see everything?"
Fang Jie smiled: "Please raise your eyebrows a little bit, let me see where your eyes are... Maybe this is what makes you think Da Zizai is different, you know Dazizai is dead, but he is alive and well .Da Zizai himself said that he deceived King Dalun Ming... right?"
Xiang Qingniu nodded: "Yes, that's what I said."
"Why should he explain it so clearly to us?"
Fang Jie asked a question, and Xiang Qingniu's heart skipped a beat.
The two looked at each other, both thoughtful.
