I Want To Be Qin II - Chapter 1101
Chapter 1101 The extreme of ministering is also the climax of danger. (Second more)
Li Mu’s words left him speechless for a while. He knew in his heart that Li Mu’s worries were not false, but something that would really happen.
As Li Mu’s lieutenant, Sima Shang never doubted Li Mu’s strategic vision.
Every famous general is a person with a unique vision and a clear understanding of the situation in the world, and Li Mu is no exception.
Seeing that Sima Shang stopped speaking, he just lowered his head and remained silent. At this time, Li Mu turned his eyes to Pang Yuan, and his eyes were full of anticipation.
Compared to Sima Shang, Li Mu’s main target is Pang Yuan, because Pang Yuan is not only a strategist, but also a strategist, that is, a strategist.
Aware of Li Mu’s gaze, Pang Yuan’s expression also moved slightly. He has been silent and thinking since Li Mu opened his mouth.
He knew in his heart that this matter had great potential, but it was extremely dangerous. If he succeeded, he might keep Zhao State, but if he failed, it might also ruin Zhao State.
Risk and success always go together.
Pang Yuan knew in her heart that it was impossible to keep silent all the time. Li Mu brought him here for this very reason.
After thinking about this, Pang Nuan, who had not spoken for a long time, raised his head and glanced at Sima Shang, and finally set his eyes on Li Mu and said bluntly.
“I have been running around between countries for many years, and I have always been committed to collaborating and destroying Qin. Although I have never fulfilled my wish, I still have a certain understanding of the world pattern and the state of Zhao.”
“Let’s talk about the general situation in the Central Plains first. Now all the countries in Shandong have fallen into a strange state. Above the court, the ruler is unknown, treacherous and arrogant, and famous officials and sages will be forced to leave.”
“Furthermore, the clans and royal families of the various countries lack outstanding people like the Fourth Young Master of the Warring States Period, and lack leaders. As a result, the countries have not sought progress over the years, but have only sought to protect themselves.”
“Shandong countries are weak in resisting Qin, and they are already showing signs of collapse.”
Having said this, Pang Yuan walked to the map, and her tone suddenly increased: “Jun Wu An, please see!”
Seeing Li Mu looking over, Pang Yuan said in a solemn tone, “My country, Zhao, has always served as a barrier for the countries of Shandong. Now that South Korea has been destroyed, the last strategic buffer has disappeared.”
“At this time, if I, Zhao Kingdom, can’t cheer up any more, and the government and the opposition gather together, then not only Zhao Kingdom will perish, but all Shandong countries will be like South Korea.”
“No longer exists.”
Having said this, Pang Yuan bowed deeply to Li Mu, and then said impassively, “Mr. Wu An is a famous general of Zhao State and holds the most powerful frontier army of Zhao State.”
“Yuan, I hope that Lord Wu’an will focus on the world and the overall situation of Zhao State, lead the frontier army to the south, cooperate with Lord Chunping and others, and clean up the court situation with lightning speed.”
“Because this is Zhao’s only chance.”
Seeing that Li Mu’s expression did not change, as if this did not touch his heart at all, Pang Yuan was silent for a quarter of an hour, gritted his teeth, and said.
“If Lord Wu’an continues to be so hesitant, I’m afraid that my Zhao country will be the next Wei country, and Wu’an Lord will be my Zhao country’s Xinling Lord.”
“Mr. Wu’an, a lesson from the past, as a teacher in the future, Pang Yuan asks Lord Wu’an to strengthen my Zhao country!”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire shogunate suddenly became solemn, and even Sima Shang’s expression became tense at this moment.
He knew what Pang Yuan meant.
Although he is a military general, if he wants to become the main general of an army, he will definitely not be unfamiliar with the world’s major events, not to mention that Wei belongs to the Three Jin Dynasty.
Sima Shang knew some things about Wei State, not to mention that Lord Xinling was one of the four sons of the Warring States Period and had a great reputation.
Lord Xinling was the son of the Wei royal family. He led the combined army to defeat the Qin state twice and became the mainstay of the Shandong states.
In addition, Lord Xinling stole the talisman to save Zhao, and the style of fostering a scholar, so Lord Xinling had great prestige in Wei State, and even in the whole Shandong countries.
At that time, the state of Wei was just like the current state of Zhao, where a treacherous and dazed king came to the court. For a time, the state and the opposition of the state of Wei were unbearable, and many forces in the state and the opposition planned to support Lord Xinling to replace King Wei Anli.
However, Lord Xinling did not dare to act due to various scruples, so he was depressed and died. Since then, the state of Wei has plummeted.
This former hegemon of the Central Plains has completely withdrawn from the list of powerful countries, and there is no possibility of resurgence.
Pang Yuan took Xinling Jun as an example, this is to ask Li Mu not to be Xinling Jun and let Li Mu be more decisive.
Sima Shang knew in his heart that Pang Yuan used Lord Xinling as an example, and what he said was actually very serious.
glanced at Pang Yuan, Li Mu frowned, he knew in his heart that Pang Yuan wanted him to be a servant.
Xunzi once said in the article “Chen Dao” that Lord Xinling was the minister of the society, the treasure of the monarch, and the honored minister of the Ming monarch.
He thought that when the monarch made a mistake and was about to endanger the country and society, the only people who could save the nation from danger and save the country were the four ministers: remonstrance, strife, auxiliary, and fu.
The so-called Fuchen is the servant of Fubi.
Fuchen resists the king’s orders, steals the king’s power, corrects the king’s mistakes, stabilizes the country in times of crisis, relieves the king from the humiliation of failure, and ultimately benefits the country’s society.
“Mr. Wu’an, extraordinary things can only be solved by extraordinary means. The current state of Zhao is already in jeopardy. If this continues, it will be the next state of Wei.”
“Now that South Korea has been conquered by Qin State, Wei State can’t take care of itself, if…”
While Li Mu was silent, Pang Yuan spoke again, obviously he had also read Xunzi’s “Chen Dao”.
“The foundation of ministers and Taoism is to follow the Tao and not the monarch. The state and the society come first, and the monarch follows.”
“Mr. Wu’an, Dang Duan will continue to suffer from the chaos!”
Li Mu knew clearly that the purpose of Jun Pingjun and others was not only to make him a servant, but also to let him remove the king and do Yiyin’s affairs as a general of the frontier army.
The extreme of the ministerial way is also the apex of danger.
The atmosphere in the shogunate was a little dead, Pang Yuan requested, Li Mu kept silent, and the confrontation between the two sides was together.
Sima Shang knew that it couldn’t go on like this. Li Mu brought Pang Yuan to discuss it, not to bully each other and fight each other.
After thinking about this, Sima Shang spoke categorically towards Pang Yuan and said, “General Pang, if we go south, remove the current king, and kill Guo Kai, the entire court will be in chaos.”
“There is a saying that a snake can’t live without a head, and a person can’t do it without legs. If it happens, can someone among the elders of the Handan clan be able to stir up state affairs and prevent the situation from being corrupted?”
Sima Shang’s words made Li Mu nodded, and Pang Yuan was taken aback for a moment. He didn’t expect Sima Shang to be worried about this issue.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Li Mu’s eyes look over again. His heart moved, and he immediately realized that this candidate would most likely affect Li Mu’s decision.
Pang Yuan was silent for a while, and then said categorically towards Li Mu.
“Chunping-kun!”
