"Let's take a look. Leng Qiu, finally fought back."

China Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Zheng Yu took the newspaper handed over by the emperor, stood there and looked at it with a look of playful expression on his face.

"It seems that he can't play anything new," Zheng Yu said slightly, "this thing is expected."

"Don't underestimate your enemies." The emperor said, "The simple and direct method may not be bad. After all, the thoughts of the masses are not that complicated and do not understand too profound truths. Leng Qiu is still a little clever."

"He wanted to attract the masses' attention to social injustice and the gap between the rich and the poor, to collusion between officials and businessmen and political leaders, and accused the government and chaebols of collusion, to lure the masses into real donations, and to use various trade unions, peasants' unions and other organizations to semi-force the working people to contribute capital. This is a disguised taxation. "Zheng Yu shook his head, "After all, these can only deceive ignorant people and are not responsible for the country's elite. As long as the grassroots organizations are controlled, the masses will not be incited by these lies."

"We can't be optimistic yet." The emperor frowned, "The local government is now in the fight against corruption and corruption. People are too anxious and will never be honest. Many people may be thinking about using these things to muddle the water."

"Didn't you send all the working group?" Zheng Yu looked at the emperor with his lips slightly curled up. "After all, in the Jiawu year, the business period was still short, and it was not a solid piece. You have already found a gap and pulled a group of people. If they want to get on the throne, they naturally have to perform hard. Since you have dug a hole, why should you scare your son here?"

The emperor stared at him for a long time and smiled helplessly: "You kid, why is your mind full of these twists and turns... It was an honest and legitimate arrangement, but it was so complicated when you said it..."

Zheng Yu secretly despised him, knowing that this old man is a bit famous now, and he wondered how your diary was being modified? When will you decrypt it?

"Since Leng Qiu has made a move," the emperor looked at Zheng Yu and asked after a while, "What do you think we will do next?"

"Further expose their crimes, continue to follow the law procedure, and judge the crime according to the law." Zheng Yu said without hesitation, "Promote propaganda throughout the society, reveal the true faces of these people, and completely defeat Leng Qiu in moral terms. The value of the Al Shabaab has been almost fully explored. They have become the best targets to unite the hearts of the people and divert public anger. The government cannot stand ambiguous positions on this issue."

"Rule of law?" The emperor looked at Zheng Yu with playfulness, "They are far away in Siam, and the Siam military government has always been hostile to the empire. How can the rule of law solve the problem?"

"The absent trial can be conducted in China and public opinion propaganda is more uncomfortable to be ruined than to kill them. If you die, you can still be called a martyr. But if your reputation completely stole the streets, it is better to die than to die." Zheng Yu said seriously, "Public opinion and the rule of law are the best weapons to deal with them. They advocate democracy and freedom, but what they do exceeds the rule of law. The empire was accused of being a ** government, but adhered to the rule of law. Then it is clear that whoever is higher and lower, whoever is higher and lower, whoever is higher and lower."

"The father has always insisted on governing the country according to law. The son's opinion is that this is setting the best example for society." Zheng Yu looked at the emperor and said respectfully, "China has lacked real rule of law since ancient times. It has always replaced the law with so-called human feelings and principles, making the law a thing that can be explained at will. However, people always have various defects, and it is difficult to maintain fairness in the face of many temptations. Therefore, the rule of law becomes rule of man, and then oppression, leading to the collapse of order."

"For the empire, in addition to external national defense, the first thing is the rule of law." Zheng Yu continued to say seriously, "Let the law become the highest criterion for all citizens, then the order of the empire will be truly stabilized, everyone's behavior has its own standards, and anyone who wants to disrupt the order will first be punished by the law."

"But I am the emperor," the emperor stared at Zheng Yu, his eyes a little gloomy. "I am the incarnation of the empire and the highest guardian of the empire. These chaotic countries, and there is no direct and effective means to punish them in the rule of law. What's wrong with destroying them with means other than the law?"

Zheng Yu was silent for a while and said earnestly: "Father, because you are the incarnation of the empire, you must be more cautious in your every move. You are an existence beyond the law, and you also have enough power to do things that the law cannot do. But the order of the empire was established by you, so the one who cherishes this order the most is you."

"Over the years, you have been insisting on acting within the legal framework to ensure the authority of the rule of law, establish the order of the country, and use your authority as an invisible supervision." Zheng Yu took a deep breath, and his heart was calm, "One hand in the rule of law, the other hand in the sword, Xu Shuai relayed this sentence to me what you said back then. Al Shabaab is just an ugly person. Father, you can put them down with your backhand."

The emperor stared at Zheng Yu with his eyes and nodded after a while: "Okay, that's all about this. But there is another one, have you ever thought that this will push many people to the Chinese Democratic Party and Zeng Fei? Will this become a wedding dress for others?"

Zheng Yu's heart was terrified, but he didn't expect that the emperor had even considered this.

He thought for a while and said, "In his son's opinion, those radicals who often shouted for fighting and killing were brought to life by Zeng Fei. The Chinese Democratic Party has always regarded itself as the so-called real people, and has always hailed morality and public opinion. The actions they make are all secretly shameful bribery and collusion, except for superficial propaganda, criticism, and calls. If the group of people of the Al-Shabaab joins, it will inevitably have huge conflicts with the original power of the Chinese Democratic Party. By that time, the Chinese Democratic Party will be unable to take care of itself, so there will be no power to challenge the imperial government."

The emperor looked at him and shook his head after a while.

"Zeng Fei would not accept these people. He had deep thoughts and thought about things carefully." The emperor smiled. "He would definitely instigate these people to draw a clear line between the Young Party and establish a new party. As the secret alliance of the Chinese ** Party and the political vassal of the facts, he would use them to do things that would damage the Chinese Democratic Party and his own image."

"On the contrary, many democratic sympathizers, domestic underground intellectuals, including foreign groups, will turn to Zeng Fei." The emperor continued, but his tone was not angry. "I can be sure of this."

This time, Zheng Yu was really confused.

This was the first time he had lost his full grasp of something in front of the emperor. He began to feel a chill.

The reason why Zheng Yu was able to gain the upper hand in the past few psychological wars was simply because he was a time traveler, baptized by knowledge a hundred years later, and had twenty-nine years of life accumulation in his previous life, and the memories left by eighteen years in this life, and the emperor did not know all of this. The emperor just regarded him as an eighteen-year-old young man who grew up under his nose.

There is no doubt that after so many things, the emperor has regarded him as a very mature and experienced politician. Zheng Yu is very clear that for the emperor, all such people, no matter which camp they are in, are potential opponents and enemies.

Zheng Yu thought hard, but could not think of the whole story. He said simply: "Father, I... really don't know."

The emperor stared at him for a long time, and his face became solemn: "Do you know who my biggest enemy is?"

Zheng Yu looked at the supreme incarnation of the country and thought for a while. A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind and said in disbelief: "Is it... yourself?"

The emperor looked at his adopted son and finally smiled.

"You can see this, which is very good, very good. Since ancient times, for the emperor, the biggest enemy has always been himself, and the more powerful the emperor is, the more so it is."

"From I sat in this position, I knew very well that my real enemy was hidden in my own heart." The emperor smiled bitterly, "My power is too great, my prestige is too high, and the people believe in imperial power too much and desire a wise monarch. The army is mine, the party is mine, the parliament is mine, public opinion is mine, and even wealth is mine. I fund the growing children, and have spread all aspects of the party, government, military, finance, and society. This country is firmly in my hands."

"But the more this happens, the more I am more vigilant. People think I am a god, but I know that I am also a human being, but I am more rational, more decisive, and more power. I can see farther than them, deeper, and think more thoroughly. But I am still just a person." The emperor sighed, with a hint of fatigue and a faint relief on his face. "I will also be dominated by emotions and be blinded by some things. I have a bigger ** than ordinary people, want to change the world, want to challenge and defeat all the conventional authority."

Zheng Yu looked at the emperor and could no longer hide the shock on his face. He did not expect that this supreme power man would say such shocking words.

"When I occupied the south, I knew that this country was already my pocket. What I wanted to do was just wait for the fruit to ripen and fall down by myself. But I didn't want to wait anymore. Since I could create this empire, why can't I do more? Life is limited. Since I can unify this empire, why can't I cut the mess quickly? No matter what the century-old inheritance of infrastructure construction is, as long as it is unified as soon as possible, then control things, and train five million troops to fight for the world. What's wrong with it?" The emperor's voice suddenly rose, and his face turned slightly red, "Why not? Although it is very dangerous and difficult, I have been here for so many years. Since there is hope, why don't you fight once in your lifetime?"

"These problems have troubled me for a long time. I tossed and turned. Many times I have made up my mind to overcome all difficulties and make a fortune. Why should I leave what I can do for my descendants? What's more, I don't even have a biological son." The emperor looked at Zheng Yu, "I will never admit defeat forever. But I lost in this matter. I don't have descendants. If I don't do these things myself, who will I inherit them? Even if I build the foundation of a thousand-year empire, who will I give it to?"

"It was Xiaofan who reminded me," the emperor's breathing gradually calmed down. "He told me that this country belongs to us, but it cannot be just ours. We also have to see these hundreds of millions of people, people as alive as us. At that time, I finally realized that my biggest enemy was actually myself."

"I adopted you back then. I want to see if ordinary people in this country can give me confidence and make me believe that they can become the masters of the country. You are a very well-behaved child, very upright, kind, and very smart." The emperor stared at Zheng Yu and said extremely seriously, "I used to worry that you could not see through these things, and lost yourself between democracy and dictatorship, ideals and reality, and worried that you cannot stick to your own opinions and go unwaveringly along this path. However, in Russia and in the Northeast, you gave me a big surprise."

"You have insight into the essence of politics, are sophisticated and mature, can plan, and dare to place bets. You still have that integrity and kindness in your bones. More importantly, you are also lucky." The emperor's eyes showed unconcealed appreciation, "I really didn't expect that your child would grow up so fast... It seems that it was really..."

The emperor paused and seemed to swallow something back: "God's will."

"Someone once accused me of betraying ** and betraying the people. I never admit this sentence. Because from the beginning, I had already thought about taking this path, and I was sure that for the country, this is the most correct path." The emperor said, "But I am also afraid that I will lose my awe in the face of power, become a slave to power, and indulge myself in the bet of the country. Therefore, I must keep some enemies and always be alert to myself."

"Zeng Fei is a very not simple person." The emperor expressed his appreciation. "He is very self-disciplined, tolerant, and talented in speeches. He is very capable. Such a person is qualified to be my enemy. He is also very smart. He did not return to China like Sun Yat-sen and others to restrain me in the existing system. He has ambitions, he stayed abroad, gathered forces against me, and made it difficult for the empire's state machine to directly punish. He did not disappoint me. In recent years, the Chinese Democratic Party has focused on every flaw in the government, forced the government to restrain its own behavior, and forced them to improve some practices. With this difficult enemy, the Baath Party has not quickly corrupted and degenerated, and has not been completely submerged in the corruption of power."

Zheng Yu was finally completely shocked.

He did not expect that the Democratic Party of China could develop to this day was the emperor's intentional indulgence. However, this indulgence was really trying to cultivate a sufficient enemy for himself. What kind of courage and mind is this? How transcends the times and subverts all Chinese historical traditions?

In a country that advocates complete defeat and believes that eliminating the enemy is a real victory and any compromise is self-destruction, such a rebellious ruler actually appears.

This emperor is amazing, has profound thoughts, superb skills, and can be unprideful. He is loyal to his wife, almost like a perfect person.

But in this world, there is no perfect person.

The emperor is...the one who can't give birth to a child.

Zheng Yu looked at the aging emperor, feeling the pride and loneliness of the other party being independent of the peak of power, and experiencing the complex emotions of instinctively doubting everything, but longing for sincerity and trust. An impulse involuntarily surged in his heart, wanting to respect this old man with all his heart so that he could truly feel the warmth in the last years of his life, rather than being a suspicious and helpless monarch who died of depression.
