Chapter 242: Treat, behead, and treat as a dog!Politicians have three tricks: treat, behead, and accept as a dog! Murong Fu used to entertain guests frequently, and this was called "drinking together from a golden cup". Beheading more people now means showing no mercy. But if he could be accepted as a dog, Murong Fu would not refuse. He let Xiao Feng go just now because he hoped that Xiao Feng could protect Yelu Hongji and prevent this old man from really falling and causing the Khitan to be destroyed by the Jurchens. The Liao Dynasty seemed to be the most powerful country in the world, but in fact it was just a broken house with leaks on all sides. Yelu Hongji was the second to last emperor of the Liao Dynasty. After his grandson Emperor Tianzuo succeeded to the throne, he ended up not being able to escape, and became a prisoner of the Jin people together with Emperor Huizong of Song. Yelu Hongji was of very low level and addicted to hunting. He was bewitched by treacherous officials and killed his own sons. In the end, he almost killed his grandson as well. He almost committed the feat of destroying his entire family and ending his own lineage. Such a foolish emperor, facing the combination of Wanyan Aguda and Murong Bo, as well as the backstab of Yelu Chongyuan, can he withstand it? Murong Fu hopes that he can stop it, at least before Murong Fu unifies the Song Dynasty, he must be able to stop it! Murong Fu believed that Emperor Dao Zong of Liao was probably not as good at escaping as his grandson Emperor Tianzuo, and was even less capable of surviving in the wilderness. If he was really captured or killed by Wanyan Aguda, the Liao Kingdom would really be doomed.
At this time, the Liao Kingdom did not have a talent like Yelu Dashi who could turn the tide, so since Dashi and Lin Ya did not have one, let Xiao Feng be the vanguard! Xiao Feng is a person who can be easily kidnapped by the justice of the world, which is exactly where he can be used. He is a very suitable chess piece. If Murong Fu ignored the situation and allowed the Jurchens to completely defeat the Liao Kingdom and capture Yelu Hongji, the Wanyan Jurchens might have been able to swallow an elephant and unite with the Bohai people and the Jurchens in the Liao Kingdom to recruit surrenders and rebels and establish the Great Jin. In that case, Murong Fu, who was still working on unifying the country in the Song Dynasty, would face even greater trouble. A new barbaric dynasty is much more difficult to deal with than an old empire like the Liao Dynasty. It’s not that we can’t win, but there is no need to waste precious national strength to solve problems that can be easily solved. Murong Fu was not stupid. He would not believe that Wanyan Aguda, whom he had never met, would be loyal to him, nor did he believe that Murong Bo could really control the Jurchen tribes. Once the power of the Jurchens becomes too strong, there will definitely be a fallout between Murong Fu and the Jurchens. This is a political law that cannot be changed by human will. The best scenario is that the Khitans and the Jurchens fight each other till their brains are knocked out and the foundation of these two ethnic groups is destroyed, and the Han people reap the benefits without being accused of genocide. Let the Liao Kingdom and the Jurchens maintain a balance of power, and then Murong Fu will temporarily help whoever is weak, and suppress whoever is strong, so that they can consume each other. Then, Murong Fu continued to migrate Han people to Liaodong. When the Han people had truly taken root and possessed unparalleled advantages, he forced the warriors among the Jurchens and Khitans to serve the colonial cause of the Chinese Empire and to consume them. The rest were all assimilated to Han culture. This is actually the return of all swords to their roots in the national field! According to later molecular anthropology, the Wanyan Jurchen tribe and the lineage of Wang Xizhi have the same genes, so Wanyan Aguda should actually be a descendant of the Wang family of Langya. "Wanyan" may be the wild form of "Wang". Murong Fu's mother was Wang of Langya, so from a genetic point of view, the Wanyan tribe is indeed Murong Fu's relative. As for the Yelu family, they were truly Sinicized. Yelu Abaoji even named himself "Liu Yi". The Chinese surname of Yelu is Liu. Yelu Abaoji took the surname of his idol Liu Bang. According to the results of molecular anthropology in later generations, the Yelu clan was the descendant of the Zhou Dynasty vassal states and also came from the Xia Dynasty. This is not surprising. After the Han people went to the border areas to hike for a year, they looked similar to the Huns. People change with the environment. Therefore, Murong Fu believed that these so-called barbarian tribes were most likely the result of the Xia people turning to nomadic life. Because the grasslands were vast and it was difficult to maintain civilization, they regressed to a nomadic state. Once they return to farming, they will quickly become Han people, and will be no different from Han Chinese Zhang San and Li Si.
Therefore, these messy ethnic groups are essentially the result of the spread of Han genes. Due to different lifestyles, different ethnic groups were born. Therefore, true unification is to rely on the most advanced productivity to improve the Han people's way of life, and then make all the surrounding ethnic groups submit to the Han people's way of life, and then remove their ethnic imprints, destroy their national history, and eliminate their national culture. Then, in just one generation, there will be only Han people in the land of China. As a member of the Xianbei Murong clan, Murong Fu was to take the lead in sinicization and bring all the swords back to their clan. If there is no one in the country, the Han Dynasty will prosper! This is exactly Murong Fu’s grand plan! Murong Fu originally wanted to uproot Shaolin Temple, but Master Lingxiu showed his outstanding political wisdom during the Guangmingding Incident, chose the right historical direction, and unswervingly followed Murong Fu into the torrent of the new era. He was a well-tested disciple, so Murong Fu decided to listen to Master Lingxiu's opinion. "Master, Shaolin Temple is willing to support your great cause. You once said that everyone in the world should have the opportunity to practice martial arts. We at Shaolin Temple will present the 72 unique skills, Yijinjing, and Shaolin basic martial arts, and incorporate them into the great Mingzun Tripitaka to contribute to the goal of everyone having the opportunity to practice martial arts!" Master Lingxiu said first. When these words were spoken, all the Shaolin monks were shocked and heartbroken. Xuan Nan said: "This is my Shaolin secret skill so precious, it is really inappropriate to do this, extremely inappropriate!" "Master Lingxiu, please think twice!" "Please think again!" When faced with Zen Master Lingxiu handing over their martial arts to them, the monks all showed reluctance to let them go. The most valuable asset of a martial arts sect is martial arts. Although the 72 Shaolin unique skills were learned by Jiumozhi and others, Jiumozhi would be very powerful whether he learned it or not. But if Shaolin martial arts were really handed over, it would probably become commonplace. Does Shaolin still have any technical advantages? Zen Master Lingxiu glared at the monks and said in a deep voice, "You should know that when Bodhidharma taught us martial arts, it was for us to strengthen our bodies and save all living beings. Bodhidharma never said that Shaolin martial arts belonged to Shaolin privately! Bodhidharma's original intention was good. He wanted us Shaolin monks to strengthen our bodies first, and then lead the people of the world to strengthen their bodies together. The strong first will lead the strong later, so that we can become strong together and save all living beings. Unfortunately, because of this chaotic world, we have ruined Bodhidharma's good intentions." "The reason why my Shaolin Temple didn't dare to openly teach martial arts in the past was that the world was full of greedy people. There was no Chakravartin in the temple, and no martial arts supreme in the world. Once bad people with ulterior motives learned Shaolin martial arts, they would do evil. Because this chaotic world has no order, and the strong prey on the weak." "But now, Patriarch Murong is the Holy King of the Wheel of Time mentioned by the Buddha, and he is the supreme master of the martial arts world who determines the fate of the martial arts world. We, the Shaolin Temple, have handed over our martial arts skills to Patriarch Murong to help him save all living beings. This is Bodhidharma's original intention! For monks, the most precious thing is the Dharma. Martial arts are just a way to strengthen one's body, and naturally we must return to the essence. Do you understand?" Xuan Cheng took the lead and said, "Master, what you said is a wise saying. Shaolin Temple cannot treasure what it has. Junior Brother Xuan Ji, go and bring people to get the Yi Jin Jing and the Seventy-two Unique Skills and hand them over to His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan." The monks had no choice but to do as he was told. Xuan Cheng thought: My master is saving your lives. You guys, you can't see through this color! Do you really think Murong Fu is not the devil? He is the big devil, so he has to cut his flesh to feed the devil! "You are very aware, and Shaolin is also very aware." Murong Fu gave his evaluation. Zen Master Lingxiu was delighted and said, "Master, our Shaolin monks are the best in the world. These monks train every day, and there are many masters in the temple. Back then, we, the thirteen monks, saved the Tang King and made Shaolin martial arts famous. Now the Master is like Emperor Taizong of Tang, a rare saint and wise ruler. We, the Shaolin monks, are willing to serve as soldiers for the Master, help him unify the world, and save all living beings." Before, Zen Master Lingxiu handed over the intellectual property rights of Shaolin Temple, but now he has to pay a blood tax to Murong Fu. This sincerity cannot be said to be insincere. Murong Fu looked at the muscular Shaolin monks and knew that they were all first-rate recruits, so he nodded and said, "Monks should also come down from the mountains to save the people in troubled times. Lingxiu, you have done as well as the former abbot of Tanzong." Zen Master Lingxiu was encouraged and made up his mind. He said loudly: "The last thing we Shaolin Temple will do is to atone for Ye Erniang's crime! Ye Erniang is the daughter of a tenant of our Shaolin Temple, but Xuanci did not abide by the rules and regulations, which led to boundless sins. Therefore, we Shaolin Temple intends to distribute the land occupied by Shaolin to the tenants of Shaoshi Mountain, and contribute to your ideal of 'everyone has food to eat' and do our best!" The Shaolin monks were in an uproar. But Master Lingxiu said sternly: "I have already made the decision on this matter. If anyone objects, I will destroy his martial arts and expel him from Shaolin!" The monks didn't dare to say anything more, after all, Zen Master Lingxiu now represented the general trend. Murong Fu felt deeply: Zen Master Lingxiu is a smart man, and he really loves Shaolin. He handed over his martial arts, distributed all the land of Shaolin, and led the monks to build an empire for me. This is a political stance, and also a good way to whitewash Shaolin. But the most important thing is to take sides. The ecological environment in China since ancient times is that the top leader has absolute power. What others say is not important, the top leader's opinion is the most important. The only way for Shaolin to survive is for him to please me, the leader, and let me forgive Shaolin for its past mistakes. Whether it's martial arts, land, or blood tax, I can accumulate them again, but if I am dissatisfied with Shaolin, Shaolin will be reduced to ashes!
Thinking about this, Murong Fu looked at Zen Master Lingxiu and said, "Lingxiu, you really have good intentions!" Zen Master Lingxiu smiled bitterly and said, "Master, I was born and raised in Shaolin, and have deep feelings for Shaolin. I hope you will have mercy on me." As he spoke, Zen Master Lingxiu looked at Murong Fu with almost pleading eyes. Murong Fu asked: "Why do you want me to show mercy?" "I hope the leader can restore the 72 Shaolin unique skills and eliminate the hidden dangers for our Shaolin." Zen Master Lingxiu was overjoyed, but only made a very small request. "Yes." Murong Fu said. Afterwards, Xuan Ji and others presented the secret manuals of the 72 Shaolin unique skills and the Yi Jin Jing to Murong Fu for his perusal. (End of this chapter)
