As he said this, Lin couldn't help but lower his head and sigh. Yin Zhou filled a glass of wine and handed it over with his own hand: "Brother Lin, these things are in the past, so don't sigh. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and each wave is higher than the last. Come, let's drink!" Lin Sheng smiled heartily, drank a glass of wine and said: "Yes, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Although the Ming Dynasty's vitality was severely damaged after the civil war. But thanks to Emperor Xianzong and his son, who worked hard in the past sixty years, they have recovered a few percent."

After a pause, he added: "It's a pity that all the elites of the three major battalions have been lost, so that they have not fully recovered today! But it is still more than enough to deal with ambitious enemies." Needless to say, this was said to Batu and others. I glanced at Batu and the others from the corner of my eyes. They were fascinated by what they were listening to and had no other expressions on their faces. Yin Zhou laughed and said: "In the past, Song Taizu wanted to move the capital from Kaifeng to Luoyang because Bianliang City was undefendable. Song Taizong refused. Song Taizu said that all the sixteen states of Yanyun were in the hands of the Khitans. The Central Plains was vast, and the Khitan cavalry was ready to march towards the imperial court. At dusk, the army came to the city, and the country was unstable. Song Taizong came and said, the country's safety lies not in morality! Song Taizu was silent for a long time, but even though he spoke like this, he left troubles for his descendants a hundred years later, and the matter of moving the capital was left unfinished. As a result, the Jin people The cavalry invaded Bianliang, and Jingkang suffered a humiliation not seen in thousands of years. The Ming Dynasty claimed to inherit the mantle of the Song Dynasty, so why did it set its capital in Peiping? In the past, Taizu had a sharp vision and made his capital Jinling. But now it is here, even if the emperor guards the country, he can't do anything. It was Xingzai. But the Emperor Yingzong removed the word "Xingzai" and took root here. In the Battle of Tumu, all the firearms that Ming Dynasty relied on were lost, and the military morale was unstable. I was really worried that one day, the shame of China would happen again. "

Lin Sheng laughed and said, "Sir, what do you think? Let us move the capital!" Yin Zhou nodded slightly and said, "We are all country folk, wanderers outside the Great Wall. It doesn't matter if we are wrong. The Ming Dynasty should not set its capital in Peking. ."

Yin Zhou's words can be described as disrespectful. If we Jin Yiwei heard it elsewhere, we would not hesitate to arrest them, throw them into prison, and then kill them without mercy in the name of slandering the government! What's more, the famous eunuch of Dongchang is also present today. I once heard someone say that even though Dongchang has all kinds of bad things, he is loyal to the court. They regarded Yue Fei as their patron saint and worshiped him every day. They always did their part to protect the national system. I looked at Lin Sheng and waited for him to say a word before I stood up. I accidentally saw Yin Hua smiling lightly, his eyes drifting over from time to time, but Lin Sheng didn't seem to mind today and was still drinking. The others were also talking and laughing freely. I was confused for a moment, but then I understood, maybe they are friends? Or maybe thinking of the interception and killing tomorrow, maybe you can't bear to mess with the big plan! Ning Xi listened quietly, her beautiful face attracting many people's attention. Even Mrs. Wang cast approving glances at her face from time to time. I have many thoughts, but I dare not move. On the other hand, Batu and the others were extremely proud and looked at them from time to time, clearly arrogant and full of provocation.

Yin Zhou added: "Although Bei Yuan fled outside the Great Wall, and the Ming army also attacked many times, it seems that the place is peaceful now, but in fact it has laid the foundation for great disaster. Just imagine that a country that has been in peace for a long time must be greedy for enjoyment and put the emperor at the gate of the country. Even though there are dangers in Yanshan Mountain, the breakthrough of Juyongguan and Xifengkou is a flat river. Although there are troops from various places, the Mongolian cavalry can arrive in the wind and rain. Sooner or later, this capital will be someone else's. Emperor Yingzong's Stories don’t necessarily happen only once!”

"Jinling has a tiger and a dragon, and has the spirit of the emperor since ancient times. The south of the Yangtze River is rich and abundant with food and rice. Emperor Taizu was just a monk, but he was able to defeat all the heroes and establish the Ming Dynasty. He actually used the power of the south of the Yangtze River to gain great benefits from the world. . The capital city is in a bitter cold land, with bad wind and sand, and all sides are restless. And Emperor Yongle's talk of pacifying the Sui border and guiding the barbarians was nothing more than wishful thinking. He must have been disturbed by the killings in the south of the Yangtze River." In words. Among them, there were many complaints about the Jingnan Campaign that year.

Lin Sheng smiled slightly and said: "When the boat from the Western Jin Dynasty landed in Yizhou, the king of Jinling lost his temper. At this moment and at that moment, be prepared for danger in times of peace. This is the way of the sages, and it is the eternal truth. The emperor guards the gate of the country for the long-term peace of the world. . Yes, although Beijing is not as prosperous as Jiangnan, it has been in the hands of the barbarians for hundreds of years since the Five Dynasties, making the Central Plains undefeated. I, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, was wise and powerful, and Wei Guogong went to the north to restore the Han family. It has always been Peiping is an important military area, which is why Emperor Taizong stationed troops here. It is inherently a difficult battle. The benevolent sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom. However, Emperor Taizong was wise and thought deeply. Although he defeated the Mongols many times, he decided to move the capital here. The so-called emperor's defense. The gate of the country. After several generations of management, this place has already changed its appearance! Fusui border and guide the survivors, this is what Emperor Hongwu said, for the sake of peace in the world. As for what you said about Emperor Taizong being afraid of the hostility in the south of the Yangtze River, just imagine the city of Beijing There are so many killing battlefields in the surrounding area from ancient to modern times?" Yin Zhou laughed and said, "Emperor Hongwu has a lot of experience, but he, the fourth son, is not a fuel saver. The battle of Jingnan was a human tragedy, even if he did it Emperor, aren't you alone?" Yin Zhou's words became more and more disrespectful, and it was obvious that he was a little drunk. I looked at Lin Sheng. As long as he said a word, I would definitely take action. Li Duanhua, who was not far away, never left me with his cold eyes.

"In the past, when we got one, the sky would be pure, the earth would be peaceful, the gods would be spiritual, the grains would be full, all things would be alive, and the kings would be pure. As a result, heaven will If there is no purity, the land will be broken; if the earth is not peaceful, it will be ruined; if the gods are not spirited, it will rest; if the grains are not full, they will be exhausted; if all things are not alive, they will be destroyed; if the princes and kings do not have chastity, they will collapse. Therefore, you are noble. Taking baseness as the foundation, high and low as the basis. This is why the princes and kings claim to be lonely, widowed, and poor. Isn't this the fundamental evil of baseness? No, the highest reputation has no reputation, and the undesirable jade is like jade, and the luoluo is like stone. "

"We are all little people, how can we control national affairs? The reason why we talk about Tumu Fort is that it is too close to Tumu Fort. In fact, it is all old news from the palace. My husband and I have been friends for many years, but we have not been friends for more than ten years. We couldn't meet each other, but I am very happy to meet you today!" Lin Sheng talked eloquently. Although he is a father-in-law, his voice is very confident, and his talent is even more impressive.

Yin Zhou smiled and said: "The way of heaven is to make up for the excess of losses and make up for the deficiencies; the way of man is to make up for the excess of losses and benefits. Heaven and earth last forever. The reason why heaven and earth can last forever is because they do not produce themselves, so they can live forever. Therefore, after the saints The body comes first, and the body exists outside. It is not selfless! Therefore, it can be selfish. Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and they regard all things as cud dogs. The saints are unkind and regard the people as cud dogs. Between heaven and earth, they are like piles of straw. Huh? It is empty but not yielding, and it becomes more and more when it moves. It is better to stay in the middle than to talk too much. Brother Lin's words make me feel very happy, but it is a pity that Brother Lin is in the palace, unlike us who are wandering outside, and his experience is very different. Yin Although a certain person is a Han, he has long lost this country in his heart." He deliberately looked at us a few times and then said, "The Ming Dynasty seems to be monolithic, but in fact, under the iron slab, there are turbulent undercurrents. Even if Emperor Yongle is still alive, isn't there Tang Sai? Are you making trouble? Nowadays, the new emperor has ascended the throne. I heard that he is also an unreliable boy, and the government is in chaos. Haha, Emperor Zhu was very ambitious back then. I am afraid that Izumi knew something about it, but there was nothing he could do about it!"

The officials didn't change their expressions after hearing this. After all, this is the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Yin Zhou really couldn't listen to these words anymore. I sat up straight, my hand had already touched the dagger, and looked at it. Lin Sheng. The others were the same, all focused on Lin Sheng.

Lin Sheng's expression changed slightly, but he quickly changed back. He suddenly raised his glass and said, "You must be drunk, that's all. You and I are both talented people. It's other people's business to give advice, so let's leave it at that!" Let's toast to everyone!" Mrs. Wang also nodded and said: "What my father-in-law said is, how can we be involved in national affairs? The cold night is long, let's drink more wine to drive away the cold!" Yin Zhou smiled lightly, but did not Talk more.

Everyone continued to drink, but the atmosphere was a bit awkward. It was not as relaxed as before. I saw Ning Xi's face was confused. She must be like me and didn't know the past. That Yin Hua cast his eyes on me from time to time. Occasionally, I met We arrived and smiled at each other. I always thought she looked familiar, but I didn’t know where I had seen her.

Then the scene gradually became deserted. Everyone drank a few glasses of wine. There was a banging sound outside. It was already midnight. Ning Xi yawned a few times first, and then Mrs. Wang followed suit. She must be too sleepy, Lin Sheng said. : "This is a place for garrisoning troops after all. If we make a noise here, if the censor finds out, we will be punished. We are all very lucky today, so we might as well disperse!" Everyone naturally agreed and dispersed immediately. Lin Sheng pulled Yin Zhou to his room, and Yin Hua motioned for Li Duanhua to follow. Lin Sheng looked back at Yin Hua and said with a smile: "Brother Yin and I haven't seen each other for many years. Talking all night is what we look forward to, little sister of the Yin family What are you still worried about?" Yin Zhou also smiled and said: "I don't have the power to restrain a chicken. If Brother Lin wants to do it, it's the same everywhere. Sister Hama, don't worry!" After that, the two of them left hand in hand. Yin Hua nodded helplessly and signaled Li Duan to go back while he went elsewhere.
