Chapter 449: In the world of power, interest is the first element "And even though you are the head of the vassal, you are just a minister." "So these things have little to do with you." "clear?" Faced with Lin Che's pressing steps, the sweat on Zhu Ping's forehead slid down his temples. How dare you say no? Nodding like pounding garlic, constantly saying yes, just hoping to get through. See this. Lin Che snorted disdainfully. Although she didn't know who was responsible, she thought she had said what she needed to say. As for, is it hard to persuade a damn ghost with good words? Over there, look at the good fortune of the other person. "Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary people, such an emotionless school of thought is simply a kind of black magic." After a pause, Lin Che continued talking, no longer worrying about Zhu Ping. What does death or immortality have to do with me? "After proposing the concept of sexual self-interest, Han Feizi wrote another article on this topic, explaining his views more systematically."
"The whole article has clear logic and cold words." "It's hard to accept. However, I can't refute it. Does the prince know which article it is?" Zhu Biao did not dare to be negligent after hearing the words. He immediately stood up and saluted respectfully: "Mr. Hui Lin, it should be "Han Feizi. Bei Nei"" Snapped! There was a crisp sound. Lin Che clasped her hands together, her eyes filled with relief, and praised without hesitation: "That's right, this is it." "The reason why the prince is a prince must be outstanding in his own way. The two of you who are younger brothers should learn from your elder brothers." "There's no need to talk about anything else. Just talking about the reserves, you two can be brothers." Hear this. King Qin Zhu Xi scratched his head in embarrassment, feeling even more guilty in his heart. However, King Yan Zhu Di didn't care and didn't think it was anything at all. "The opening chapter of "Han Feizi. Binai" first mentions two key points." Lin Che smiled meaningfully and turned her head to look at Prince Zhu Biao. "The first point is that the trouble of a master is trusting others." “If you trust people, you will control them.” "Secondly, a minister is not a relative of flesh and blood to his lord." "Being bound by the situation, you have no choice but to do something." "It means that for a monarch, the biggest disaster is trusting others, because trusting others means being controlled by others." Lin Che was determined. "It is useless for the monarch's ministers to have flesh-and-blood relations with the monarch, because his loyalty is not to the monarch, but to the power in the monarch's hands."
"The key point is to be tied to the situation." "Let's put it in a more unpleasant tone." "Your brothers are also untrustworthy, otherwise you will be controlled by others. This is a taboo of being an emperor." Zhu Biao: "!!!" Zhu Xi: "???" This statement came out. Not only was Zhu Biao stunned and speechless, but even Zhu Chong felt horrified. He never expected that Lin Che would be so outspoken. It is equivalent to taking precautions in advance and blocking the way in. If one is not careful, he will directly set himself on fire. Before this, their brothers relied on their old father's earnest teachings and would never be wary of their own family. However, now that Lin Che has disrupted the situation, the situation has become completely different. Even if nothing happens, you still have to whisper. In this case, if I come to ask for advice today, wouldn't I be shooting myself in the foot? Think of this. Zhu Xi's teeth were so full that he almost broke them, and he had a new understanding of his husband. There was silence for a while. Before the prince could ask questions, Lin Che raised her hand slightly and interrupted: "Just listen carefully to what I tell you. Don't ask so many big questions, and don't talk so much nonsense. From ancient times to the present, Examples abound. “When you sit in that seat, you’ll understand it all.” Looking at the astonished Zhu Biao, Lin Che smiled: "Let's get down to business and continue what we haven't finished yet." "So the nature of courtiers to pursue profit is suppressed by the power of the monarch, not that they do not have this nature." "It is precisely because of these two points that regicides occur frequently in the vast history." "If the monarch trusts his son, then the treacherous officials will use the prince to realize their own selfish interests. If the monarch trusts his wife, then the treacherous officials will use the queen to erode the country's interests." Lin Che spread her hands and said casually: "Of course, except you, me. If I don't have the iron-blooded skills of you, don't think about some things that are there or not, otherwise it will only harm you." "For example, the once talented and strategic King Zhao Wuling was ultimately used by powerful ministers to usurp the throne because he trusted his son too much, and trapped himself in the sand dunes." "Also, Li Ji, the concubine of Emperor Xian of Jin, with the help of his favored ministers, instigated the relationship between Emperor Xian of Jin and his sons Shen Sheng, Chong'er and Yi Wu, which eventually led to one son being sanctioned and two sons fleeing, creating a Li Ji Rebellion .” Zhu Biao was thoughtful and nodded silently. Although he was a little reluctant, he had to admit that there was nothing wrong with Lin Che's point of view. After all, there is only one such harmonious family like the Zhu family in the past and present, and it cannot be used as a reference. "The Han Dynasty believed in the mother-in-law's family, and the result was that relatives interfered in politics. The Jin Dynasty believed in the mother-in-law's family, and the result was the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, as well as eunuchs, powerful officials, etc." After a pause, Lin Che said carefully: "If people so close to me like my wife and son can't believe it, then naturally it's even less likely that the rest of the people will believe it." “Never attempt to challenge human nature.” "A saint will also fail miserably." "Since ancient times, there have been many queens who were childhood sweethearts with the monarch and their sons were named princes. However, they hope that the monarch will die soon."
"why is that?" Facing Lin Che's sudden rhetorical question, the Zhu brothers lowered their heads in unison, feeling inexplicably depressed at this moment. After thinking secretly for a while, Zhu Biao just replied: "Because in the world of power, interests are the first factor. Everyone has a love for everyone. If the mother is beautiful, her son will be doted on." "On the other hand, if old age and beauty fade, her son will be alienated." "As a man, it is difficult to resist beauty, but a woman's appearance will gradually wither." "When the queen is alienated by the monarch because of her old age and beauty, her son will inevitably be alienated by the monarch." "At this time, you will be worried about the monarch and want to change the son of another favorite concubine to be the prince. Therefore, you hope that the monarch will die soon." As he spoke, Zhu Biao suddenly added: "But, Mr. Lin, the Zhu family is not another Tian family, and this situation will not happen." "You're worrying too much." Seeing the prince's unswerving look, Lin Che couldn't help shaking her head and laughing, and waved her hand: "Of course there is no problem if you say this now. Whoever made your father and mother love each other so deeply can be regarded as a model for emperors and empresses throughout the ages." "But, you may do this with every generation of emperors."
