The room was silent, and everyone was contemplating. Tiansheng learned the lessons of the chaos in the last years of Dacheng and the chaos of the country. Know, dare to think, dare to say!

Looking at Dacheng's national policy against the barbarians in the past six hundred years, all those present were able ministers of the court, so they naturally understood that Feng Zhiwei's proposal of civilization spread, war and strategy, and economic exchange were the three major means to appease the grassland tribes. Every method has its limitations. The threat of the grassland has always enveloped the Central Plains. The powerful barbarians who have been fighting for territory for many years are like weeds on the grassland. Soon thereafter, a more ferocious and savage barbarian tribe will rise up on the grassland, one after another, difficult to eradicate.

And once the troops are raised rashly, the following may be a long and protracted war, and after risking the suppression of one regime, they will face the consequences of another more ferocious regime again. Have the politicians really made such a determination? And in the southwest of Tiansheng, there is also Xiliang, a rich coastal country with a well-developed salt industry and commerce. Once the war is stalemate, will Xiliang be robbed by fire

No one can afford this responsibility. Although the strategy is good, no one dares to support it.

"Have you ever thought that once the nomadic country is enlightened by the civilization of the Central Plains, it is likely to be more prosperous if it learns our technology, the rule of law, and our country's policies?" After a while, Hu Shengshan asked leisurely.

"Intermarriage and mutual trading, of course, will take a long time to bear fruit, and imitating our Central Plains culture will not be achieved overnight." Feng Zhi smiled slightly, "What's more, Tie Le, Gu A, and Duo Shu in a remote corner of the Hulun Grassland in Dayue The three major tribes have never been restless for many years. After World War I retreated from Da Viet, with appropriate support and necessary containment, within ten years, Da Viet will definitely not be able to cross the Hulun Pass."

"What's more." Feng Zhi smiled, all the tenderness disappeared in an instant, and the brilliance came alive, "I still have two good things, which can ensure that Da Yue will be restrained by our government from now on, turning a wolf into a dog!"

"Oh?" Emperor Tiansheng's expression had turned excited, but Ning Yi, who was at the side, suddenly narrowed his eyes.

Feng Zhiwei turned her gaze, and suddenly walked to Ning Yi's side, bowing slightly.

"Your Highness, would you mind lending me something?"

Ning Yi raised his eyes and looked at Feng Zhiwei, a girl wearing a mask, her pupils were clouded and she couldn't see the expression in her eyes clearly.

The two people's eyes met, and they turned away from each other. Ning Yi's eyes fell on his sleeves, and then he said calmly: "Okay."

He didn't ask what it was, as if he had already guessed it.

Feng Zhi pursed her lips and smiled, the smile was cold.

The rest of the people didn't know what kind of riddle the two were playing, and they couldn't wait to look around. Feng Zhiwei pointed at Ning Yi's wrist, and said with a smile, "I'll borrow the Lord's prayer beads."

Ning Yi was wearing a raw silk gown with a moon-white background and gold borders. The sleeves were wide and embroidered with a few pale green five-petaled plum leaves. It was so elegant and elegant that no one could see that he was wearing Buddhist beads on his wrist. Emperor Tiansheng said with a smile: " Lao Liu, I have never heard that you are a layman, why did you suddenly believe in Buddhism?"

"A few days ago, the seventh brother invited the brothers to have a banquet at the mansion." Ning Yi laughed, "At the banquet, one person gave a bunch, saying it was a tribute from the Xunluo Kingdom. I only wear it when I am most afraid of heat, so I am not a layman."

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, wearing a string of black Buddhist beads on his wrist, the color is ancient and elegant, and the agarwood is faint, one can tell that it is not ordinary, but it is lined by the delicate jade wrist bones, which is obviously a solemn and solemn Buddhist thing, but unexpectedly There is also a bit of temptation in the obvious.

He stretched out his hand, and didn't take off the beads by himself, but raised his eyes and looked at Feng Zhiwei with a smile, his eyes were shining brightly under the thick long eyelashes.

Feng Zhiwei looked at him.

He looked at Feng Zhiwei.

The wrist is stretched flat in the air, but it is not retracted.

Feng Zhiwei secretly gritted her teeth, it would only become more embarrassing if she stiffened for a long time, so she reached out to take it, she carefully raised her fingers to avoid touching his skin, Hu Shengshan next to him suddenly smiled and said: "Mr. "

Everyone laughed, Feng Zhiwei also said with a sneer: "I am the first son in the family. A few older brothers died earlier. My parents were afraid that they would not be able to support them, so they raised them as daughters since they were young. It made everyone laugh."

As he spoke, his movements accelerated, his fingertips slid across Ning Yi's palm, and suddenly he felt Ning Yi's fingers curl up and gently scratch her palm.

This scratch was as light as a feather, and she was about to tremble. Feng Zhiwei was startled, subconsciously withdrew her hand, and almost dropped the Buddhist beads. She only felt that her face was hot, and she thought to herself, it’s okay to wear a mask on the face, the ears must be Also red.

Sure enough, Ning Yi smiled and said, "Master Wei is really a meticulous person, he is also so careful when he strokes a Buddhist bead."

Everyone laughed again, but this time the laughter was different, some people still had no heart, while others had a twinkle in their eyes.

A poor kid from a farming family shouldn't behave like this...

Feng Zhiwei looked into Ning Yi's eyes with a cold smile, and said with a calm smile: "Wei Zhi was born in a poor family, but now he is lucky enough to see Tianyan, and even the prince and the elders of Zhuge look at each other with green eyes. Frivolous, Wang Ye Haihan."

"It's okay." Ning Yi smiled, "I'm also happy to see you, so happy that I'm even scared."

Everyone laughed and started joking, but Tian Shengdi was still thinking about Feng Zhiwei's strategy of taming the wolf at this time. Although this undercurrent was turbulent, he was moved in his heart, but he didn't think deeply about it.

"Your Majesty." Feng Zhiwei quickly changed the subject, stepped forward and presented the prayer beads, "The second strategy for taming wolves lies here."

Emperor Tiansheng played with the beads and saw that the patterns on the beads were a bit weird and complicated. He seemed to realize something, "Gelug Lamaism?"

"Exactly." Feng Zhiwei didn't want to stay for a moment, and spoke quickly, "Da Yue was originally from a grassland tribe. The first generation of Kulla Khan once believed in Lamaism. Most of the upper-class nobles believe in this religion, and I thought that I might try some means to spread this religion in Yue."

"so what?"

"There are three advantages. First, Lama Gelug has 'two non-precepts'. First, monks are not allowed to marry wives and have children, and second, monks are not allowed to participate in childbirth. Once a large number of young and strong men are ordained to become religious, the population and combat power will decline. Even if the war The time is too vulgar, and the long life of the ancient Buddha with blue lights has already dispelled the killing heart. Second, the teachings of Lamaism promote the six reincarnations. There are monasteries, unlike shamans where worship ceremonies can be held everywhere, a large number of monasteries can also pull wandering herdsmen off their horses and stay in fixed areas."
