Standing on the hilltop of Penghu Island, you can see Yizhou. Looking from a distance, Yizhou is even more majestic than the Central Plains.
There are high mountains, clouds and mist on the island, and the vast expanse makes Han Qi cry.
"I never imagined that there really are fairy mountains overseas."
Liang Chuan stood beside Han Qi and said with a smile: "My lord, this mountain is indeed a fairy mountain. People in Yizhou call it Alishan."
"you've been to?"
"No."
"Then how do you know the name of this mountain?"
"It looks like in the book."
"Has Xiang Yu read books?"
Liang Chuan hesitantly said: "My lord, you are here again, why can't I talk about King Xiang!"
"Which book said it, why don't I know."
"geography."
Han Qi scanned through his mind and discovered that he had read all the books and there were some fish that slipped through the net.
"Lend this book to me someday..."
This is a blatant request for bribes! Han Qi's face didn't change at all!
Where can Liang Chuan find a geography book for Han Qi? Unless he compiles one himself, he's afraid Han Qi won't be able to read it!
"This book is out of print, I'm afraid it's hard to find, but since you want it, we'll dig deep to find it!"
Han Qi is also a layman. As soon as Liang Chuan's various experiences aroused his curiosity, he wanted to persuade people to do good. People are like this. They always have a Bodhisattva in their hearts. They like to persuade their cousins to be good, and they like to persuade pillars of the country like Liang Chuan to work for the country.
Liang Chuan has lived his life most clearly. He has seen a lot. Many people dream of going back thousands of years ago, using the knowledge they have mastered, or becoming an official, becoming a master, and having fun fighting against heaven and man. Ever since, his whole life has been nothing more than the simplest thoughts: not to be an official or to join politics, to run his small family well, to fill his stomach and protect the people around him, to earn more money, as long as he can spend it, but to have a clear conscience I don’t ask for any bullshit to leave a name in history, it’s all fucking bullshit!
Before Han Qi opened his mouth, he saw the detached look on Liang Chuan's face. There was light in his eyes, he could see far and clearly, and he looked at the world with a sense of freedom and ease.
Officialdom is the most abrasive place, and no matter how sharp the edges are, they are smoothed out in the furnace of this world.
Liang Chuan probably also knows that when he enters this officialdom, he will not have such a leisurely life. He can't help it every day, and sooner or later the light in his eyes will no longer exist!
When the words came to his lips, Han Qi swallowed them again, and then he smiled inexplicably, mocking himself in his heart that Ding Wei and Xia Song did not persuade him to become an official, although he himself said that his writing If his score is extremely poor, he may not be able to pass the imperial examination, but there are many ways to become an official, and most likely he is unwilling to do so, so why should he hit this wall again!
"Yizhou is indeed not a small island. The ancients did not go to the sea, let alone measure this land, which misled many people."
"The area of this island is about the same as Fujian Road, but the mountains on the mountain are much higher than Wuyi Mountain on Fujian Road. If our Song Dynasty takes this land under its control, we will have the best Yunwu tea to drink in the future. Our Song Dynasty culture can also expand overseas!"
“Culture expands outward?”
This was the first time Han Qi heard such a statement, which was really refreshing.
"Does your statement mean that you are from the same school as Master Meng Liangchen from Zongzheng Temple?"
Meng Liangchen is no longer a person now, he has become a sect and a doctrine, and his influence is no less than that of any great Confucian scholar in the contemporary era. Although this man is young, his radical ideas are enough to attract attention.
The socialist theory propagated in Meng Liangchen's thoughts seems a bit crazy and unruly, but after careful understanding, it turns out that they are a step higher than Confucius's thought of serving the people, Meng Yasheng, and they have many ideas. The angle is unexpected. In their eyes, the common people are supreme. The common people are the country. It is undeniable that they have their own unique insights!
Moreover, Meng Liangchen also has a very special identity. He is the latent master of Zhao Zongshi, the current prince of the East Palace!
Many people have gathered involuntarily at Zongzheng Temple. There are many relatives of the royal family and many new generation scholars!

This has already formed a faint force in Bianjing City, a new force that cannot be ignored!
Han Qi is not blind. He has seen the rise of this group of people a long time ago and knows what it means!
The rise of the prince is a challenge to the official imperial power!
No matter what the original intention of this group of people is, to the Zhao Guan family, this is a threat!
Han Qi's mood was very complicated. When he mentioned Meng Liangchen, he wanted to think of Liang Chuan. They were from the same hometown and were most likely from the same sect! Thinking of Xia Song from Liang Chuan, could it be that he is also a member of the East Palace Prince Zhao Zongshi?
Behind this. .
Han Qi looked at the vast world and fell into deep thought again!
People, as long as they take a step into officialdom, they will never escape the whirlpool of struggle. He wants to plot against the state, but in the end it is still for the struggle. .
Liang Chuan didn't have as many thoughts as him.
He was about to start his explanation of advanced socialist ideas again: "To conquer a place, you can use force and swords, or you can use a more thorough method, that is, culture."
Han Qi didn't know whether he heard it or not. Liang Chuan continued to talk to himself: "Conquest by force can be suppressed, but there will be a day of resistance. If you use culture to occupy the ideological high ground of the people, then there will be no need to greet people. , the common people will also come to see the wind!"
Han Qi was moved: "If we could make the people of the North return home, the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun would have been recovered long ago!"
There are too many issues involved behind this, and it is a cultural issue.
In the Taizu era, great efforts were made to govern, and the people who had been enslaved for hundreds of years had a peaceful life. In the Taizong dynasty, although there were occasional troops, the people's lives were still manageable. In the previous dynasty, Emperor Zhenzong, many ministers began to panic.
It is undeniable that there were many famous ministers in that dynasty, but there were even more treacherous ministers!
What about Wang Qinruo and Ding Li Te? If you pick any one, you can write a book about the ever-lasting sycophants. The officials were deceived into going to worship heaven every day and seek enlightenment. The life of the common people began to go downhill. Let alone the cultural attack, they even conquered the country. I have forgotten how to hold the sword. Not to mention that the officials themselves do not care about such a court, and the common people do not care about the court that squeezes them every day!
Liang Chuan hummed, agreed with Han Qi's statement, and said: "Our official family is a once-in-a-lifetime wise king. Under his leadership, the people have lived a happy life, but we cannot just let our Song Dynasty The people enjoy happiness. Sir, do you know that there are many immigrants from the Song Dynasty on this island, but most of them are still local natives! They are not educated. If they meet other kings, forget it, they may rebel every day. In our case Under the rule of the officials, their lives will definitely have a new twist!"
Han Qi stared at Yizhou, his clothes rustling in the sea breeze. His age matched his position and there was no sense of incompatibility, but his personality was too reserved, like a magic weapon hidden in a scabbard. , if it doesn’t come out of the sheath, it will be earth-shaking once it is taken out of the sheath.
"Yizhou must be taken down!"
Han Qi said nothing more and ordered the boat to turn around: "Go to Penghu!"
The fleet cut through the waves and followed the wind to reach Penghu Island.
Although only a short time had passed in Penghu at this time, earth-shaking changes had already taken place.
Su Wei didn't know where he had brought a large number of giant trees. A large number of carpenters were working hard with big saws, and planing the wood scraped out sawdust all over the ground. There are also bricklayers who have set up low brick kilns to bake green bricks, while stonemasons are chiseling out the natural stones on the island. .
The buildings on the island are all made of wood. The houses rise from the ground and the layout is very reasonable. They are completely different from the gangster dens when the Japanese took over. In just a few days, it will look completely new!
The harbor where Liang Chuan attacked Penghu was completely blocked by sunken ships, but nine cannons were set up on the sea cliffs on both sides, four on the left and five on the right, facing the direction of Liang Chuan's ship!
Han Qi didn't know the power of these cannons, he just thought they were decorations. .
Sea-going ships could not reach the port, so the group had to change to a small sampan to get to the island.
The sea water wet Han Qi's clothes, but Han Qi remained unmoved. His waist was as straight as an iron plate, standing straight on the bow of the ship!
"Sir, be careful!" Liang Chuan asked Xia Dehai to carry Han Qi back to the island, but Han Qi did not refuse. There was a short sea route that was not easy to travel.
Han Qi went to the island and walked directly to the highest sea cliff next to the port. Liang Chuan carefully followed behind. He couldn't guess what the little old man was thinking!
The sea cliff offers a panoramic view of the entire island, and you can even see the Yizhou and Central Plains continents from a distance to the left and right!
Han Qi's face grew darker and darker as he watched. Liang Chuan was not engaged in construction. He was clearly building an overseas military fortress. If he was not preparing for rebellion, who would believe it?
"Is this your handiwork?"
Liang Chuan said generously: "Yes, sir, all of this was built under the instruction of the villain."
"As a person like you, if you want to take the Song Dynasty in your eyes, you are talking to ghosts, but you want to focus on conquering Yizhou. What are you trying to do?"
In the eyes of others, this question is just too obvious, so just ask Liang Chuan directly, do you want to rebel?
Isn't Han Qi afraid that if he learns Liang Chuan's secret, he will sink him into the sea?
"Your Excellency, you don't know. The harmful effects of the Japanese have not yet been truly revealed. When their power matures, the Song Dynasty will be completely brought down by them!"
"Our Qingyuan Port is not prosperous. As long as we let them fight a few times, there will be no business. Millions of people on the southeast coast work on the sea for a living. If we can't hold on to this blue land, our descendants will have to fight for it in the future. Suffer poverty!”
"So last time you said you should not kill the Pu family's slaves and those outsiders, but leave them all to you. You just wanted to bring them to the island to work as coolies, right?"
"Your Excellency! It is most appropriate to put them on this island. Since you can transform their minds and use them as waste, why not~!"
