Chapter 410 The integration of politics and religion is not advisable
Hearing Liu Jin's question, Zhang Xiu swallowed, and a smile uglier than crying appeared on his face:
"What a coincidence... I didn't expect that... here, I would meet... the prince. It is indeed... fate has arrived, and I can't stop it..."
Zhang Xiuyue spoke softer and quieter, and when he saw Liu Jin's frosty face, he almost peed in fear.
What does it mean to throw oneself into a trap, what does it mean to send a sheep into the tiger's mouth, this is it.
If I had known earlier I would have changed my name.
Fortunately, now, the name of the Bajun witch has been called out, which shows that he was exposed from the beginning.
So, Zhang Xiuma slipped into submission in front of Liu Jin and cried:
"Your Highness, Xiaodao was really forced to rebel. Later he realized that he was wrong and ran out of the wall. Please, for the sake of my grandfather, please treat me like a fart and let me go."
"Uncle Shi, Uncle Shi, you keep helping me, I really don't dare anymore." Zhang Xiu said and pitifully asked Zhen Yu for help.
Zhen Yu looked at Zhang Xiu with difficulty. Is there something wrong with your brain? Or are you just begging for death? If you really wanted to kill you, would you tell me so much?
I just don’t know what to say. You’re stupid, but you’re a bit quick-witted. You’re smart, but you can’t see through such an obvious thing.
You are messing around all by yourself from beginning to end. Why are you so busy?
"Tell me, who gave you the courage to rebel in the first place?"
Liu Jin wanted to know which bastard had been hiding in the dark to stir up trouble.
"The prince is joking. He is forced to do so. Who would do this if there is really no way to survive." Zhang Xiu said with a smile.
"Tell the truth!" Liu Jin looked at Zhang Xiu quietly with a pair of sharp eyes.
Even if Zhang Daoling's grandson is expelled from his family, he will not have no way of survival in Shu.
After all, looking at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face, the Celestial Master's Way is a huge thing in Shu, and most people will not be able to do it very well.
Zhang Xiu felt an invisible pressure falling on himself, as well as the hidden murderous intention, and cold sweat broke out all over his body.
If you don't tell the truth, you will die.
At this moment, a voice in Zhang Xiu's heart told him that he was really going to die, he was really going to die.
"I didn't want to rebel at the beginning. After all, there are four divine generals in the imperial court, and no one wants to face them."
Zhang Xiu's dry voice sounded, and he finally chose to confess honestly. He didn't dare to gamble, and he couldn't afford it.
"But later, news spread among the people that General Fengshen, the leader of the four generals, had killed too many people and was punished by heaven. In order to avoid the disaster, the remaining three generals could only stay in Luoyang to protect the capital. On the one hand, you should cultivate your moral character.”
Liu Jin took a deep breath, "Do you believe this rumor?"
"Believe it, why don't you believe it?"
Zhang Xiu glanced at Liu Jin curiously, "I have such a background, and the education I received since childhood tells me that this can be trusted."
It's reasonable, logical, and consistent with the natural cycle.
Liu Jin was silent. Some people are real dogs. They calculate everything but don't show up.
You can continue to be rats in the sewer, and don't make me angry, otherwise I will visit you door to door.
No matter who you are, beating them all up will never go wrong.
"Then I thought, since those officials were yelling at me anyway, I might as well just lay down a piece of land and manage it myself. Not only could I continue to do my own thing, but I could also try to see if there would be any difference in the sect's management of the place..."
Zhang Xiu couldn't speak anymore. He felt the coldness on Liu Jin's body became stronger, but he didn't know where he said the wrong thing.
"The sect manages the place. Is this your idea or the Zhang family's idea?" Liu Jin's eyelids drooped, and all the emotions in his eyes were restrained.
"Ah?" Zhang Xiu scratched his head, a little confused.
"My eldest brother often laments that if the sect can manage the place, it will be easier for the people to educate, and the government's policies can be better implemented. In this way, the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and not close their homes at night."
"I think it makes sense. I think I have to build a piece of territory anyway, so there's nothing wrong with giving it a try."
Zhang Xiu told the truth, it was about his own life and he couldn't be careless.
"Your eldest brother, is he Zhang Lu?" Liu Jin thought for a moment and asked. After all, Zhang Lu is the third generation Heavenly Master.
"Yes." Zhang Xiu blinked, our brothers' names are so big, the prince actually knows them.
Liu Jin glanced at Zhang Xiu with pity, "I didn't expect that your eldest brother would take your life, annex your team, and take care of your wife and children in the future."
However, given the urinary nature of the Bajun witch, others would only applaud and praise him for his righteousness in annihilating relatives.
Liu Jin can't say that Zhang Lu is good or bad. If he insists on it, it is that he has the true inheritance of his ancestor Zhang Daoling and follows the trend without fighting.
Although Zhang Lu was also considered a warlord in the late Han Dynasty, his territory at most was only two counties, Hanzhong County and Ba County.
Zhang Lu occupied the territory and did not want to conquer the world. He guarded his three-thirds of the land, preached and educated the people, and established a political and religious regime.
Regardless of superstition or deception, Zhang Lu's rule has become a paradise.
Not only did he provide free accommodation for passers-by, but he also provided free meals.
Zhang Lu has been doing this kind of thing for thirty years. People are very happy with this system.
How about it, does it feel familiar? This is the earliest socialism.
Moreover, under Zhang Lu's rule, he would only be punished after breaking the law three times. It can be said to be quite merciful. It also reflects from the side that the security of Zhang Lu's territory should be pretty good. Otherwise, it would be too late to crack down hard. How could such a lenient punishment be used.
In the turbulent Three Kingdoms era, and even in many eras, the people under Zhang Lu were considered happy.
Especially in his attitude towards the court, Zhang Jiao adopted "asking the big man to die", while Zhang Lu adopted cooperation.
Whether you call him arrogant or low-key, in short, he just develops quietly and never causes trouble.
In the end, Zhang Lu surrendered to Cao Cao, and even married Cao Cao's sons and daughters. They were promoted to officials and nobles. If you ask him to move north, I will move north without bargaining with you.
It can be said that Zhang Lu is a sure winner in life.
To sum it up, Zhang Lu knows the current affairs.
Unfortunately, Liu Jin did not agree with Zhang Lu's idea of integrating politics and religion, and it would not work here.
Regardless of whether Zhang Lu was truly benevolent or had hidden ambitions, Liu Jin would not give him a chance and would not care.
As long as you are aware of current affairs and can handle yourself clearly, that is enough.
The disadvantages of the integration of politics and religion are too obvious, and it is easy to be dominated by emotions.
Therefore, Zhang Lu was bound to leave Shu. He could go to Longhu Mountain to settle down in advance, retire in Luoyang, or go to Tianzhu to preach.
In short, we can't let him develop and grow in Shu, lest he be added to the yellow robe in the future.
