Chapter 788 Contribute to the Universe
It’s no wonder that Dugu Xin was so sensitive. Although the conflict between Hu and Han within the Western Wei Dynasty was not as sharp as that of the Eastern Wei and Northern Qi, it cannot be said that there was no such conflict at all.
Especially after the Beizhen warriors suffered serious losses in their respective armies, the upper echelons of the Xianbei warriors were actually nervous in their hearts, fearing that they would be betrayed by the armed Guanlong tycoons who would turn against Tiangang. The bottom overcomes the top.
This is also a problem that the upper-class dignitaries of the Western Wei Dynasty, centered on Yu Wentai, are worried about. In the face of this big worry, other small conflicts of personal pros and cons can be put aside for the time being.
As a result, I don't know if others have turned against him, but in front of him, the son-in-law whom he confides in and trusts as a family member is shouting that he wants to conquer the barbarians and recreate Yan Xia. This can't help but make Dugu feel indignant and want to lure the wolf into the house. After all, it’s hard to guard against house thieves even if you guard against them day or night!
Since Li Tai said this in front of Dugu Xin, he had naturally expected his reaction. Therefore, after hearing Dugu Xin's question, he turned to look at him and said sternly: "Whether you are Huayi or not depends on your will. It’s not about the physical appearance. Although my father-in-law is a slave, his knowledge, magnanimity, and wisdom are not comparable to those of ordinary slaves.
Since Kuang Taihe, the people of Xianbei have been closely intertwined with our Chinese heritage. How can we tell the difference between the soldiers in Beizhen and the well-dressed households in Luoxia? Those who do not know the book will have bright eyes but a blind mind; those who do not know justice will have a human form but an animal state!
In the old Xianbei, although the upper and lower ranks were fixed, there was no etiquette, and there was a clear distinction between superiority and inferiority, but there was little loyalty. If they had not joined the Han family of China and Fawo, they would have just wandered around the desert. How could they build an ancestral temple and enjoy the country?
What my father-in-law is embracing today is all based on the etiquette and rituals taught by my Han family. If you ask me if I am disobedient, is it not because I know that I am asking? When I say this now, I have absolutely no intention of offending my father-in-law, nor do I have any intention of setting myself apart. What I want to say is that if you don’t learn the laws of the Han Dynasty, you will not achieve greatness. Even if a strong barbarian gets lucky and becomes rampant for a while, if you don’t cultivate virtue, your defeat will be rapid, and your descendants will be affected, and your family will be destroyed. The five ugly barbarians will not be spared! "
Hearing what Li Tai said so firmly and decisively, Duguxin was frightened for a moment and didn't know how to refute it.
After Li Tai silenced his father-in-law, he turned to look at Wei Xiaokuan, who looked thoughtful, and continued: "The Later Han Dynasty was out of order, and powerful forces arose together. Although they were divided into three kingdoms, they were all thieves who relied on force to steal their fortunes. There was no virtue, and the government was without justice. Therefore, since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it was all due to the incompatibility of interests and the proliferation of ills. The people lost their lives and the scholars lost their integrity, which led to the great disaster of the Yongjia era.
The Han family's civility and martial arts have all been wiped out. The people from the temples have been swept away in the rivers and lakes. The people in the villages are lying dead in the mountains and fields. Wherever the soldiers come, women and children are inevitable. Wherever the war comes, everything turns to ashes! The sky weeps with blood and the world is uneasy, only to realize that under the overturned nest, there are no eggs left intact. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world!
People are short in wisdom and do not know the great righteousness, so they need to talk about pros and cons. Wei Gong is wise and has a broad mind, so he talks about prosperity and failure. In the years of great chaos, the common people were displaced, and the tyrants ruled the territory. If a party formed from thirty to fifty, it would kill people to establish its authority. If it occupied a territory of hundreds of miles, it would be arrogant and arrogant. The princes and generals seem to be invincible, but they are all evil scum!
This shouldn’t be like this in the world, and this shouldn’t be like this in the world! How can we not be responsible for rebuilding mountains and rivers, carrying cauldrons to the sky, China's morality, and the well-being of all people for a long time? The Tao has been silent for a long time. If I don’t take care of myself, who else should I take care of? The world has been in turmoil for a long time. If there is no peace now, when will it be worse? I've been thirsting for merit for a long time. If I don't do this, what more can I do?
Although my life is small, my deeds are big, my blood is sprinkled in history, and my achievements are recorded in the universe! He smiled and asked Wei Gong, "Do you dare to go with me?" "
After Li Tai finished speaking, there was no other sound in the room for a long time. Wei Xiaokuan and Dugu Xin both seemed to have lost their voices, with their lips slightly open but not making a sound.
Especially Wei Xiaokuan, his heart was surging and he had many thoughts at this moment. He has long passed the age of 40. Although he is not fully aware of human affairs, he has also long passed the age of youth and frivolousness when he was incited by others' words and became excited.
But today, after hearing Li Tai's eloquent words, Wei Xiaokuan felt as if he was being empowered by the sound of Buddha and a warning bell was ringing in his ears.
Since he was a child, he has received many teachings from his relatives, advice from friends, and his own ambitions, but no one has ever told others what they should do in this life from such a grand perspective!
In the troubled times when the north and the south were divided, and the reality of the country being controlled by barbarians, it seemed that everyone had regarded it as the norm. Even when he was thinking about how to spend his life, he never thought about reviving China's clothes and rebuilding the Han Dynasty in his lifetime. Jialingque works hard.
But now he heard this arrogant statement from someone else, and he said it so loudly, so confidently, and so naturally, which made him feel shocked and curious. But more importantly, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and the hot blood was continuously pumped to his limbs, making his whole body become hot and excited.
After Li Tai said these words, he sat back in his seat, took a sip of tea, and then observed the changes in Wei Xiaokuan's expression.
He had spent a lot of time thinking about what he said and was quite confident about it.
Why do people get PUA? The main reason is that they have conscience. People without conscience will not take into consideration the words and deeds of others at all, let alone being affected or controlled.
Wei Xiaokuan is obviously not an innocent person, but he must have his ideals and ambitions, as well as a strong sense of morality and responsibility. Otherwise, he would not have been able to work conscientiously for more than ten years if he had been rejected by the men of the Yuwen family and kept in Jade Bi for so long. . What he was guarding was not the country of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but his Guanzhong hometown!
Moreover, Li Tai's words were indeed spoken from his heart, and it could even be said that he had been holding them in his heart for a long time. He also has ideals and ambitions, but if they are fully revealed, they may not be appropriate in the post-Three Kingdoms period. Except for a brief moment in front of his father, he almost never revealed it in front of others.
This time when facing Wei Xiaokuan, he spoke openly without reservation, hoping in his heart to gain recognition in this world. The reason why he did it in front of Dugu Xin was to add a layer of insurance.
Anyway, Dugu Xin got on his own pirate ship, so he might as well weld the door shut now. In the face of specific personal futures, the interests and prospects of ethnic groups are actually not very convincing.
The reason why Li Tai dared to say these words was not because of how persuasive the words themselves were, but because he already had the ability to practice them. This is what is truly touching!
"Is this, is this possible? Duke Taiyuan, the rise and fall of kings over the past few hundred years is not without wise men..."
After a long time, Wei Xiaokuan murmured, looking unsure.
In fact, this is no wonder. From the Yongjia Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty to the present, it has been a divided and troubled time for hundreds of years. This is a heavy historical pressure that makes it difficult for people to ignore and not have enough confidence to create great changes.
But Li Tai knew that this was just the darkness before dawn, and he was full of confidence in the future. After hearing what Wei Xiaokuan said, he smiled and said: "The success of the predecessors failed because there were no counselors like me. Now I have gained the wisdom of the predecessors and have the ability to do this today." Is there any reason for things to go wrong due to people’s strategy?”
Wei Xiaokuan fell silent again after hearing this, and immediately looked at Dugu Xin, seeing that after a moment of excitement, he became silent again, as if he was still considering whether he was a barbarian.
"Taiyuan Gongxiong gave me the advice. If I don't respond, won't I lose my character as a Kansai man? So, may I ask, Taiyuan Gong, what should I do now?"
After thinking for a moment, Wei Xiaokuan seemed to have made up his mind, looked up at Li Tai and asked in a deep voice.
Li Tai smiled slightly after hearing this, and immediately said: "Tomorrow, the provincial generals under the imperial city gate will discuss the matter of conferring the title of king for Grand Master Yuwen. I hope that Wei Gong can attend and second the proposal."
"Is Grand Master Yuwen granted the title of king? This has something to do with reviving the Han industry..."
Wei Xiaokuan was already very ambitious, but he didn't expect that what Li Tai said next would be completely out of reach, which made him feel a huge gap in his heart.
After hearing this, Li Tai couldn't help but look at Wei Xiaokuan with admiration. So when you were thinking about it for a long time just now, were you thinking that we should do Yu Wentai now?
It’s not a good time to talk about this now. There is no conflict between reviving Hanye and continuing to serve Bafu. After all, even Yu Wentai himself is eyeing the revitalization of Zhou Li. I am also following the boss's line instructions and further proposing a new slogan for the united front.
