Xiang Ying.
Xiang Yu and Luo Xin sat facing each other.
Xiang Yu captured Empress Lu, Liu Ying and Liu Le, but because of Luo Xin, he did not make things difficult for them. They were just grounded. Especially for Liu Le, the grounding was not so strict. In terms of living conditions alone, they were even better than those in Peixian. It was much better.
There was a bartender on the table, and the atmosphere between the two of them was not solemn, but rather relaxed.
Xiang Yu said with a smile on his face: "Your eldest brother Luo Gongling speaks like a sage in the Book of Songs, sits upright like a superior official in etiquette, his crown is always facing straight, and his robes never have a wrinkle. , You must first respect King Su when you drink. This is a person in the book. He is really independent from the world and should not exist in the world.
I am the emperor on earth, so I don't want to communicate more with Luo Gongling. Now that you have come to my country, I am happy. "
Luo Xinyan laughed. The eldest brother had always used strict rules to restrain himself, because once he broke free from the restraints, the damage he would cause would be too great.
Thinking that Xiang Yu was kind to him and that Lu Fei and others were not in trouble, Luo Xin wanted to repay him.
So he asked in a deep voice: "King Xiang, the hunters in the mountains kill the deer to get its meat, not to let other wild beasts eat it. The farmers harvest the grain to satisfy their hunger, not to let the rats steal it. This is why What you do must be rewarded.
After your victory in Yingdu, you abolished the original princes and kings and obtained so much land and population, but you re-confessed the lands of those princes and kings to their ministers. This is something that I can't understand. "
Xiang Yu heard this and replied: "The deer meat obtained by hunters and the grain obtained by farmers are rotten, how can they still use it to satisfy their hunger?
Those lands do not obey the rule of the people. If the clan is sent to guard them, the outcome will be like that of King Qin and King Yong. Not only will it be useless, but it will also cause harm to the people.
That's why we have to use these local nobles and entrust them with enfeoffments to transform them from humble to noble. Is there any other way besides being loyal to me? "
In fact, if he didn't want to anger Luo Ling, what Xiang Yu wanted to do most was to directly kill all those who were unwilling to obey, and then move the Chu people there, just like what King Su did to the barbarians, so that the Chu country The world will be stable.
Luo Xin secretly sighed that it was indeed the case, so he persuaded: "King Xiang, you are the supreme king in the world, and it is your right to award rewards. However, awarding rewards is a complicated matter, and the key lies in people.
You are entrusting several counties directly without any identification. You must be trying to win over the hearts of the countries and completely defeat the princes who oppose you.
Especially the King of Han!
But can a dam made of soil withstand the impact of floods?
Can the sparrows flying in the forest reach the nine heavens?
Only warriors can defend your territory, and only wise men can make plans for you. Without these people, no matter how dangerous the mountains and rivers are, they will just be someone else's meal.
There are countless insects among the princes. You defeated them easily, so you must be very aware of their strength.
The King of Han defeated Mengtian, broke through the Pass, conquered the Three Qin Dynasties, and went out to display his flag and the princes surrendered. Isn't this a great person worthy of your serious consideration?
You defeated him outside the capital of Ying, and he left his wife and fled in panic. But as long as people like him don't die, they will definitely rise from Guanzhong. Do you think that those people can stop the king of Han?
If he cannot be stopped, if he is defeated, the whole country will belong to the King of Han.
The vast land you now own is like a lotus leaf without roots, floating on the water. As long as a small wind and rain occurs, there will be nothing in the blink of an eye.
You will transform from the emperor of Zhuxia to the king of Chu. How much blood of Chu people will you have to pay to conquer the world for you again?
This is what Xin Neng advises you. "
When Xiang Yu heard this, his eyes immediately flashed fiercely, and his tone became a little unkind. Of course, it was not directed at Luo Xin, but at the people in Luo Xin's words. He said with a hint of chill: "Master, I have been thinking about a question.
There are five thousand miles of land in Zhuxia's world, but there is so little land suitable for living.
The people of Chu love the widows, the people of Qin hate the widows, Zhao, Wei, Han and Qi do not regard the widows as the main ones.
Although Jiangdong is a fertile land, it is not as good as the vast plains of the Central Plains. The land of the Chu people is gradually decreasing. I think that letting those who love them suffer and resent their own enjoyment is not the principle between heaven and earth.
I want to drive them to the Taihang Mountains, and then move the Chu people there, so that the Chu people can thrive and live happily. Do you think this policy can be implemented? "
Luo Xin was stunned. Even a wise man like him was confused by Xiang Yu's brain circuit.
After thinking about what I said carefully, I understood a little bit more.
Probably Xiang Yu didn't listen to the previous advice, but the king of Chu did.
Moreover, Xiang Yu is really talented in cruelty. His naked cruelty was restrained by Family Glory and Luo Family, and he took out the forced migration with his backhand.
In any era, unprepared migration is equivalent to massacre. With the national strength and organization level of the Luo Kingdom, the original migration took so much effort.
If Xiang Yu really engages in migration, large swaths of people will definitely starve to death on the road. Even if they survive, how can they survive from the plains to the mountains? How can the mountainous areas accommodate the population of the plains?
"King Xiang!"
Luo Xin frowned tightly and said: "The people of Chu love you, and it is right that you are willing to be kind to the people of Chu. But you are the common master of the world. King Su is willing to be kind to all the people of Xia. If you don't show kindness to the world, , how do you know that your subjects are unwilling to support you?
Everyone knows that you are a descendant of King Su. Before you do anything, you should think about it. King Su’s spirit is in the sky. Will he watch his descendants turn Zhu Xia into a purgatory?
You have won the world because of your talents and the support of the Chu people, but it is absolutely impossible to stabilize the world if you only rely on these two.
You are a descendant of the Xiang family. Have you never heard of the principle that if you thrive on this, you will perish on this? "
Hearing King Su, Xiang Yu's turbulent murderous intention finally calmed down and said: "Young Master, if you prosper with this, you will perish with this, I have never recognized it.
Only when we lose what makes people prosperous will decline come. As long as the people of Chu and the people of Chu are of the same mind, there will be nothing in the world that cannot be defeated.
As long as King Su is on top, if the Luo Kingdom does not survive, he will definitely protect the Chu Kingdom.
Young Master, please come back. We are exhausted. "
Xiang Yu issued an order to expel guests, but he was still very polite. If the others had been kicked out, they would have been kicked out.
Luo Xin then stood up to leave. Yu Ji walked out from behind the screen, sat next to Xiang Yu and said softly: "Your Majesty, I think what Young Master Xin said makes sense. After all, we can't kill all the people in the world. In this case, we must Capture their hearts."
Xiang Yu didn't say anything and asked instead: "How is Queen Han?
I, the overlord and hero of Western Chu, must never have the reputation of being harsh on women and children. "
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I've made arrangements for my concubine."
Yu Ji recalled the conversation with Lu Pheasant and couldn't help but said: "That is a strange woman. It is a pity that she married the old man of the King of Han."
"oh?"
Yu Ji said softly: "When I arrived, the Queen of Han was studying. She was very beautiful and had a smile on her face. She couldn't tell that she was being held captive.
The king of Han abandoned her and ran away, and even treated her children...
If this kind of thing happened to me, it would be impossible for me to be as calm as her.
I talked to her, and she was very calm. She thanked you for your kindness to her, and asked the young master about his current situation.
The concubine chatted with her. She had profound knowledge and good education, so she must be a good wife. However, as the king said, she never asked the king of Han even a little bit. "
Xiang Yu reached out and took Yu Ji's soft and boneless body into his arms, "That's what Liu Ji is like. I am different from Liu Ji. You and I live together in life, die in the same cave, and will never be separated."
Yu Ji leaned tightly in Xiang Yu's arms, and when she saw Lu Zhi's calm and indifferent expression, she realized the importance of having a close person.
Luo Xin walked out of the King's Palace of Chu and stood in the corridor covered by high walls on both sides. He looked at the slowly falling palace door and sighed slightly.
"If one day you see Jiangdong in ruins because of you, the children of Jiangdong withered because of poverty, and the elders of Jiangdong are mourning every family because of you, will you still insist on your force?
Without profound wisdom and planning, and unwilling to listen to correct advice, will this succeed?
The eldest brother is willing to protect the King of Qi because of the Lu family. Liu Bang also knows that relying on his wife's status to get close to the third brother. As a descendant of the Xiang family, you should be close to the Luo family. You are the best choice for the supreme king in the world.
As a result, you are so stubborn that you can't even listen to Luo's persuasion, and it must be impossible for others to do so. No wonder my eldest brother distanced himself from you after he destroyed Qin. "
Watching the light in the palace gradually disappear, Luo Xin seemed to see a scene where the brilliance in front of him would eventually fall. Character determines fate, and a character like Xiang Yu is destined to fail.
Luo Xin turned around and left with some regret. Unlike Lu Zhi, he was free in this city. Xiang Yu still had this level of trust in Luo.
Lu Pheasant was tending flowers and plants in an independent courtyard. She recalled the woman who looked like a delicate flower in the afternoon. Probably all men would like such a woman.
Lu Zhi was really grateful to Xiang Yu in her heart. After all, in this situation, Xiang Yu was magnanimous in not killing her. With the treatment she received, this was a real kindness, although she knew it was brought by Luo Xin.

Emperor Gaozu established the world and appointed great meritorious officials, but Dong'a was not granted the title, and all the officials were suspicious. Emperor Gaozu said: "Young master is new to private merit and has no merit in the Han Dynasty, so he cannot be granted the title of marquis."
He gave Dong'a ten thousand gold, and Dong'a Fu accepted it, saying: "Receiving salary without merit is not a gentleman."
He hung up his sword and returned home. ——"Historical Records: Dong'ahou Family"
