Chapter 336 Competing for Dominance (Everyone Celebrates Valentine's Day, Jazz Is Still Coding!)

"What do the guests want to eat?"

It was the same old couple, Fang Xing ordered flat food.

"Is this delicious?"

Zhu Zhanji looked at the slow movements of the old man and old lady, and felt that it must not be as delicious as the spicy sticks Fang Xing gave.

Fang Xing rubbed his hands, and said impatiently: "Yangchun Baixue is good, but Xialiba people also have a unique taste, if you don't eat it, you will regret it!"

When Bian Shi came up, looking at the milky white soup, Zhu Zhanji hesitated and said, "Brother Dehua..."

"Fish soup, eat it quickly."

After a sip of soup, even if the weather is hot, it still makes people feel comfortable.

The stuffing of the flat food was delicious, and Zhu Zhanji went from doubt to surprise, and he directly compared Guanglu Temple.

"Guests go slowly."

The alley was quiet and leisurely, but the sound of walking slowly made Fang Xing feel a little dazed.

Hundreds of years later, is there someone here using the same accent, telling customers to walk slowly?

When he arrived at the household department, Fang Xing was in a trance, always feeling that he was in a delicate state.

"Your Highness Wanan."

Lu Zhen came, and as the Minister of Rites, he was a little unhappy.

"Dare to ask Your Highness, why don't you act in my Ministry of Rites?"

Zhu Zhanji just pointed to the chair next to him and motioned him to sit down without explaining.

It was only then that Lu Zhen realized that what he said just now was a bit offensive, but in front of Fang Xing and under the noses of several small officials, he couldn't open his mouth to apologize, so he sat down resentfully.

As soon as he sat down, Lu Zhen was upset again, because Fang Xing actually sat on Zhu Zhanji's left, while he was on the right.

What qualifications does that kid have to sit on the honorable seat?

Fang Xing saw that everyone was here, so he said, "Before we start, I need to explain a few points!"

Several co-organizers stood with their hands tied, and Zhu Zhanji listened attentively. Only Lu Zhen, frowning, studied his fingernails.

Fang Xing ignored Lu Zhen's negligence, and he said slowly, "What should be the attitude of our party, who has won the Northern Expedition, in this tripartite meeting?"

Fang Xing looked around and saw that Lu Zhen was still looking at his fingernails, so he smiled.

Fang Xing has a good temper!

The few officials felt that the rumors about Fang Xing being unruly were too false.

"Boom!"

But Fang Xing immediately proved with a violent voice that his nature has never changed!

Lu Zhen looked at Fang Xing who was slapping the table in surprise, and looked at him not to be outdone.

Fang Xing looked directly at Lu Zhen, and said word by word: "Lu Shangshu, please pay attention, this is a place to fight for my interests, not a brothel! If you think your fingernails are very beautiful, why not return Do you appreciate it slowly?"

"You, what did you say?"

Lu Zhen put away his hands fiercely, and said tremblingly with anger: "I don't know how to negotiate, do you want you to wake up and teach me?"

Zhu Zhanji looked sternly and wanted to speak, but Fang Xing pressed his hand and said: "Fang is in charge of the negotiation. This is His Majesty's order. If Lu Shangshu thinks that Fang is incompetent, he can go and talk to His Majesty."

"but!"

Fang Xing glanced around with warning eyes and said: "Until His Majesty replaces Fang, I have to listen to this negotiation!"

"Otherwise... let's go back to our respective homes and find our own mothers!"

Lu Zhen still wanted to argue, but when he saw Fang Xing's eyes, he muttered resentfully.

"I don't know as much as you do!"

After Fang Xing suppressed Lu Zhen, he continued, "Our attitude is very simple, that is compensation!"

"Isn't it a tribute?"

A small official was recording, and asked in surprise when he heard the words.

"no!"

Fang Xing said indifferently: "The Oirats were beaten into dogs by my Ming Dynasty, and the Tatars were at the top of their heads. What I want is an alliance under the city!"

Lu Zhen was overjoyed when he heard it, and said disdainfully: "Wala is defeated, but the more we wait, the more I, Da Ming, should show the mind of Shangguo."

Seeing that everyone was silent, Lu Zhen said in a persuasive tone: "Swords and guns will not last long after all, and wars are dangerous.

And my Ming Dynasty has a side wall to resist the enemy, so it should be influenced. "

This is an old tradition of the Ministry of Rites, and it is also the pride of the Ministry of Rites.

"What do you use to influence?"

Fang Xing asked lightly.

Well……

Lu Zhen was stunned, and then said: "There are so many well-educated people in our Ministry of Rites. You should reprimand them first, then comfort them with warm words, and educate them with well-learned people. I think the barbarians will be grateful and we will live in harmony with Ming Dynasty from now on."

This is true. After Tatar was defeated by Daming and Wala, the envoy sent by Alutai was like this:

——Crying tears, vowing to be the vassal and barrier of Ming Dynasty forever.

Zhu Zhanji curled his lips in disdain. When he saw Fang Xing's eyebrows raised, he knew that Lu Zhen was in trouble.

"I remember that Mahamu's envoy also shed tears of gratitude, right? Isn't it?"

Fang Xing sneered.

At that time, in order to let Ming Dynasty send troops to attack the Tatars, Mahamu's envoy almost cried and dehydrated.

Lu Zhen was stroking his beard proudly at first, when he was stumped by these words, he wanted to refute, but he was speechless.

"alright!"

Zhu Zhanji stopped the dispute, and then said: "This time, Xinghe Bo is in charge, this is the emperor's will!"

Fang Xing saw that even Lu Zhen had died down, so he asked, "Have the envoys from the two families come?"

A small official went out to inquire about culture. After Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji exchanged colors, he said in a low voice: "Lu Zhen is ignorant and incompetent, let alone corrupt Confucianism. All the claims of educating the barbarians are false. His people The real purpose is to defend martial arts with literature."

Fang Xing is not a fool, and Lu Zhen is not a fool to be able to achieve this position.

So why did Lu Zhen talk about enlightenment?

This has to mention the former Song Dynasty.

In the Song Dynasty, the royal family shared the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, so the status of warriors was very low.

And once there is a foreign aggression, the first thing the civil service system thinks of is to take care of it by itself.

But those foreign races in the prairie won't listen to your educated people's fooling around. I am a strong soldier, so how can I be worthy of my ancestors if I don't grab one!

So the solution of the civil service system failed, and the warriors appeared.

However, the civil service system is always vigilant against warriors, and this creates an absurd scene where generals go out to battle, but civil officials need to be in charge.

The military power of the Song Dynasty was not weak, which is recognized by everyone, but why did they keep fighting and losing? Even if you win the battle, you have to sign a shameful covenant.

Seeing that the little official who went to inquire hadn't come back, Fang Xing simply pulled Zhu Zhanji out and talked about the thinking of the civil service system.

"...In the former Song Dynasty, even if the country was subjugated, the civil service system would not give up the dominance of the country, understand?"

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "What did Lu Zhen mean just now, did he want to fight for the dominance?"

"Exactly."

Fang Xing said: "The previous Song Dynasty had to pay compensation even if it won a battle. Why?"

Zhu Zhanji shook his head in a daze.

Fang Xing sneered and said, "Because it was the victory of the warriors, but can the civil service system see the success of the warriors?"

Zhu Zhanji said in surprise: "So the civil service system will use the covenant of compensation to determine the dominance? But that's selling... ah!"

"What is betrayal?"

Fang Xing said disdainfully: "After paying the compensation, the civil service system will say that it is their victory. They used a little compensation to stop the enemy from attacking."

Fang Xing looked at Zhu Zhanjidu with piercing eyes: "Your Majesty moved the capital to Beiping today. This is a wise move. The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country. No marriage, no compensation, no tribute, and put the capital in the grassland. Under the hood, this is to remind future generations to be vigilant at all times, if you slack off, you will be ashamed of Jingkang like the former Song Dynasty!" Sir Dybala said that there are so few subscriptions today, everyone went to pick up his sister. At this time, Jazz's book friends appeared in flower shops, restaurants...it must be a hotel later! Am I going to write a tragic story?
