Yu Yue said hurriedly: "Brother Mu, you are worrying too much. Mr. Tao is devoted to serving the country and will never..."

Liu Muzhi waved his hand calmly and interrupted Yu Yue's words directly: "Master Yu, please don't vouch for someone you are not familiar with and understand so casually. People who are dedicated to serving the country will know what the Black Hand Qiankun is like. Organization, but still resurrected it, will he liaise with the Later Qin Dynasty, expel and exile the generals who have made great achievements in the war for many years, in exchange for the help of the country of tigers and wolves? Rather than letting your Yu family army be taken over by the generals of the country, will it fall into the hands of his own countrymen? "

Yu Yue was dumbfounded and could not refute a single word, while Tao Yuanming said coldly: "Brother Mu, are you questioning my loyalty to the Jin Dynasty? Are you loyal to the ancestral system of the Jin Dynasty and insisting on this family?" In the world, the system in which the gentry is in power is treason and surrender to the enemy?”

Liu Muzhi said coldly: "Whether you insist on the family and the world is just what you say. Your actions cannot support your statement. You went to borrow troops from the Qin State to welcome the return of the Sima clan traitors who had rebelled against the country and surrendered to the enemy. To expel the leader of the Beifu Army, Liu Yu and others who restored the Jin Dynasty, to the border and not be allowed to return to the court, is this not treason and surrender to the enemy? "

Tao Yuanming said coldly: "Support a puppet emperor who can't speak and is a walking corpse, let her old friend, who is engaged to her, command the world as a queen, change the ancestral system, not recognize the land deeds since the Yuan Emperor, and deprive the nobles of their inherent rights." The power demoted their titles, promoted sergeants who had committed murder and meritorious service as officials and officials, replaced the nobles, and forced the Sima clan to suffer national calamity and find it difficult to find a home. They could only flee to the enemy country to seek asylum, but they completely ignored that of course they were also from the so-called Liu Muzhi, even if you kill me today, I will not take back these words. Whether you are loyal or traitorous will be decided by the people in the ages. With a knife, you can force people to change their words.”

Yu Yue was so anxious that he jumped up from the futon, stretched out his hand to take Liu Muzhi's hand, and said urgently: "Mr. Tao, be careful what you say, be careful what you say, brother Mu is..."

Tao Yuanming shook off Yu Yue's hand and said loudly: "Yu Gong, you are afraid of Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi, but I am not afraid. Your Yu family has a big business, so you have to consider the family business. I, Tao Yuanming, am not a direct descendant of the Tao family. Even if the whole family was killed, they would not be ashamed of their hearts and would not make the Tao family extinct. At that time, the Qi State historian Dong Shigong and his family were outspoken and not afraid of life and death, leaving a reputation for eternity. I, Tao Yuanming, have read the books of sages since I was a child. , is it not as good as the ancients? Liu Muzhi, if you want to be Cui Zhu who killed Zhongliang, just do it, I am not afraid of death!"

Liu Muzhi watched Tao Yuanming's fierce performance quietly. Finally, he suddenly laughed, and clapped his hands while laughing: "Just now you said that I was clear about Xuan Li Hai. In fact, the real powerful one is you, Mr. Tao." Ah, you are the only one who speaks so righteously and well, if I were in your position, I probably wouldn’t be able to say what I just said.”

Tao Yuanming sneered and said: "Kill if you want, why bother to say more. Since your brother Mu wants to say that I am a traitor and a traitor, then just take me down. This matter was done by me alone and has nothing to do with Yu Gong. You Just don't take the opportunity to frame the Yu family. My relationship with Yu Gong is limited to some of the connections we had in the past. We have no other contacts. This meeting is just a coincidence. We want to cooperate with each other. I alone can destroy the hearts of the world's scholars and make you and Marshal Liu become isolated and deserted, so just kill me."

As he spoke, he sat cross-legged on the futon, closed his eyes, and looked like he had no love for life and was willing to be killed. Yu Yue on the side also sighed and could only sit back in his seat and looked at Liu Mu Zhi's eyes were full of begging for mercy.

Liu Muzhi looked calm. In fact, Tao Yuanming's rebuttal had been expected by him. In any case, Liu Yu once traveled to the grasslands, married Murong Lan, and was accused of being a traitor. Everyone knows that Tao Yuanming changed his mind and tried to abolish the privileges of the gentry. It is inevitable that Tao Yuanming specifically singles out Liu Yu's black spots for attack. This is also the best way to avoid his own weaknesses. In the end, It is to describe the punishment of his crimes in accordance with the law as the same criminal and treasonous person, and the retaliation against him can confuse those uninformed outsiders.

Liu Muzhi said sternly: "Mr. Tao, we don't have to argue with each other here, just like we did with the aristocratic family in Wu and the high sect of Jiankang. I know clearly that they have done all kinds of things that are harmful to nature and are worthy of being the biggest moth in the country, but We still have to cooperate with them because we hold the power of the country and the decisions we make affect the lives of millions of people in the world. We cannot decide these policies based on our own ideals. We must compromise and make concessions when necessary.”

Tao Yuanming sneered and said: "Your compromise and finding Shuyuanwww.zhaoshuyuan.com is just to buy time. First, stabilize the high-ranking family, and the powerful landlords who are attached to them to cooperate with you, and then wait for your official. The school begins to operate, and when enough officials are able to go to the countryside to govern and control the countryside, or to assist the veterans who have returned to their hometowns to suppress the local powerful, then you will use the lower class scholars or even poor families to It’s time for grassroots to replace the world of aristocratic families.”

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "You said we are buying time, but why are you not doing the same? You are also waiting for Marshal Liu, waiting for me, waiting for those in power who want to achieve equality for everyone and turn the grassroots up, or Old or dead, you are waiting for the new people in power to compromise with the aristocratic families and nobles again, returning to the time when the nobles had all the power. You are waiting for your private army to be trained into a truly elite army after war, just like Just like the Beifu Army, they are waiting for their nephew to gain a title, take control of the state, and regain power from the Eighth Party of Beijing, right? "

Tao Yuanming laughed: "Yes, you are absolutely right. This is called game, this is called betting. You think these officials will fight for your ideal of equality for everyone in the future, but we think that human nature They are greedy. What they want is glory and wealth instead of working hard for the happiness of others. Therefore, I am not in a hurry. Even if you do not approve Yu Gong’s army to be controlled by Luo Longsheng this time, countless Luo Longsheng will be born in the future. Even a great talent like you can't see what kind of heart is beneath those submissive exteriors of those in charge of the military and power. And this time, without the cooperation with the aristocratic families, those big families are carving up the Yu family. After that, I still won’t cooperate with you again. When the time comes, let’s see how you and your General Liu go to the countryside and wipe out those families that have been entrenched in Wu for hundreds of years one by one!” (End of Chapter)
