Chapter 237 Lies are channels of power and can make it easier to achieve goals After hearing Lin Che's sonorous and powerful lectures, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but nodded and sighed:

"Sir, righteousness..."

"We understand!"

"We were... wrong!"

Seeing that Lao Zhu had softened and stopped being a bully, Lin Che had no interest in making things difficult for him anymore:

"The whole world surrenders, and all nations come to court..."

"This is a temptation that no emperor can refuse."

"I will not bind you according to the standards of a saint, I will only ask you according to the standards of an emperor."

"As for whether you can listen to it or not, it has nothing to do with me. Ming Dynasty is not mine!"

Lin Che took a long breath and said sadly: "If you believe me, you can understand it in just a few words."

"If you don't believe it, I can retell the history of China for thousands of years and you still won't understand."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Hear this.

Zhu Yuanzhang's frowning brows relaxed, and the invisible pressure was much lessened. He smiled bitterly and said: "Sir's warning is like thunder."

"We understand."

"If we didn't believe it, we wouldn't be sitting here."

Lin Che glanced at him following the sound and did not continue. It turned out that Lao Zhu could still listen to people's words.

In that world line, the Ming Dynasty adhered to the principle of "high expectations and low returns" in paying tribute, which lasted for more than 200 years.

Small foreign countries only need to pay a little worthless tribute in exchange for generous rewards.

In order to protect the face of the Celestial Empire, the Ming Dynasty took advantage of the situation in trade to satisfy its vanity, which made the Ming Dynasty, which was already short of money, even more stretched, causing complaints and complaints among the people.

There was Lao Zhu in front of him and Zhu Di in the back. They were passed down from generation to generation.

It perfectly explains that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.

Take back your thoughts.

Lin Che twisted the lid of the tea cup, gently scraped away the floating leaves on it, motioned to the princes in front of her to sit back, and said calmly: “Then let’s talk about the third component of rights, which is lies. Lies are channels of rights and can make it easier for people to achieve their goals.”

The Zhu family's father and son sat down again, holding their breath and staring intently, acting particularly serious.

"This third point is exactly what Your Majesty is best at..."

Lin Che took a sip of tea to moisten her throat:

"After all, if you are used to solving troubles through violent situations, how can you calm down and lay out a scam?"

"Is that true, Your Majesty?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face twitched, his brows filled with despair, and he gave up resistance and stopped struggling.

It was obvious that Lin Che's lecture today was all aimed at scolding herself.

And every word is precious.

The harder you argue, the more embarrassing you will be.

Simultaneously.

The princes on the other side also had weird expressions, and their nerves that had just relaxed became tense again. now.

They all wanted to kneel down to Lin Che and just hoped that the other party would say less.

No matter what happens... you can find someone else, right?

Don't keep throwing your weight at the emperor.

Who can stand this?

A moment of silence.

Seeing Lao Zhu nodding silently, Lin Che said calmly: "Lies play a role in the operation of power. In a simple summary, there are five aspects..."

“One, misleading others.

"To achieve their goals by making them believe or follow wrong ideas and create false information or fabricate facts to put others into trouble."

"For example, the cultural invasion I talked about before, and the dirty and obscene methods used by Confucianism to consolidate its supremacy." "You must study Confucian classics, you must appreciate the words of saints, and you must obey the legacy of your ancestors. etiquette and so on."

"If you disobey me, you will be deviant and will be despised by the world, and your family will be unable to hold its head high for generations to come..."

“First describe an exaggerated and timid result, and then induce you to fall deeply into it step by step, and from then on, you will regard the wrong thing as the truth.”

"Once you start to obey...it means that the right takes effect and the purpose is achieved!"

Hear this.

Not only was Zhu Yuanzhang here extremely shocked, but the princes headed by the prince on the other side were even more stunned and in disbelief.

Confucianism’s method of playing with people’s hearts actually includes power tactics?

The three brothers who were listening to Lin Che's lecture for the first time felt that the three views they had cultivated since childhood were instantly shattered.

They looked at each other, unable to make a sound for a long time, and could not help but feel a little numb.

At this time, Lao Zhu's cold voice suddenly sounded, bringing the three brothers back to reality from panic.

"We haven't thought about this before, but now that Mr. Lin said this..."

"Confucian bitch!"

"You really do everything you can to achieve your goals."

"I don't have any fucking face anymore."

"It's rotten from the outside to the root, how can it still be good?"

Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's gnashed teeth, Lin Che spread her hands and smiled:

"It's normal."

"The satisfaction brought by power is far beyond your imagination. The feeling of turning your hands into clouds and turning your hands into rain. Once you try it once, you will never be able to cut it again."

"Don't say that Confucianism can't control it, even the emperor is not exempt from vulgarity."

As she spoke, Lin Che suddenly added:

"The same goes for you. If it weren't for the Crown Prince and the Queen, you would be able to sit on this throne until death and never have any intention of quitting."

"No need to refute, and don't try to antagonize me. You understand better than anyone else."

This statement came out.

Zhu Yuanzhang's movement of drinking tea stopped, he opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

Even though he was a little unconvinced, he had to admit that the other party's comments were very accurate.

Throughout the ages, among the hundreds of emperors, how many have abdicated on their own initiative?

Once you pick up your rights, you can never let them go.

"Second, hide the truth."

After a pause, Lin Che ignored Lao Zhu, who had mixed emotions, and continued:

“Lies can be used to obscure the truth, making certain actions or intentions unclear.”

"In this way, a person can act without being detected, thereby avoiding possible consequences, while also confusing the opponent and causing the opponent to make wrong decisions."

"For example, civil and military officials report good news but not bad news, and never hear bad news from their mouths. This not only makes the emperor happy, but also protects himself."

"Even... to put it more extreme, the real intention of everyone's advice is to cover up the despicable behavior of interest groups..."

Lin Che stared slightly, looked at the other party with interest, and said with a smile: "There are too many examples to mention. I won't give them one by one. Please think carefully about what Huaixi Group has done."

“Their ultimate goal from now on is to maintain the status quo of being the only one company.”

"Strictly speaking, the Huaixi Group and Confucianism are essentially the same, but the causal relationships are also different."

“Because we can’t let go of the power we have, we need more rights to maintain it.”

Hear this.

The Zhu family father and son took a deep breath in unison and swallowed the water over and over again, but their mouths still felt dry.

Through Lin Che's guidance, the kings finally realized that the turmoil in the court was far more shocking than they thought.
