After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

"Chenghua, is this a person's name?"

"It could be the year, but I haven't heard of it."

Gu Nanxi's words led everyone to speculate. Even Cui Sanlun, who was well-read, had never heard of the four words Chenghua Li Ting.

Gu Nanxi picked up the cup of tea beside her, took a sip to moisten her dry throat, and then began to tell the story.

"There was a dynasty called the Ming Dynasty. Some people say this is a story from a storybook, while others say it is a story from another time and space. I will tell you and you will listen."

"The Ming Dynasty controlled the entire Central Plains, with a vast territory, but it also had enemies in the north, the Jurchens. The Jurchens were divided into three groups: the Wild Jurchens, the Haixi Jurchens, and the Jianzhou Jurchens."

"The Ming Dynasty was originally a powerful country, but after a defeat, it was nearly destroyed by another enemy in the north. Taking advantage of the Ming Dynasty's weakness, the Jurchens had evil intentions against the Ming Dynasty."

The background of this story caused an instant commotion at the scene.

Coincidentally, the Great Zhou Dynasty was also surrounded by enemies. If it weren't for the God of War Gu who stepped forward, the capital would have been almost attacked directly.

Even Aunt Geng, who was not interested in politics, whispered to her family: "Madam Hou is not talking about the Ming Dynasty, but our Zhou Dynasty!"

Old man Geng listened attentively, even stopping smoking his favorite pipe: "Madam Hou has said it all, let her continue talking, you just listen."

Gu Nanxi's eyes are deep. History keeps moving forward, but the same story always happens again after a few decades.

"Among them, the Jianzhou Jurchen tribe repeatedly violated the border, looted people and property, and even massacred Deng Zuo, a commander of the Ming Dynasty."

Having said this, the discussion below became even louder.

Didn't the enemies in the north come south every year to plunder property? Even during each peace talk, they would plunder a layer of fat from the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Gu Nanxi: "The Ming Dynasty naturally would not indulge him, so when the army approached, the Jianzhou Jurchens weighed it and felt that they might not be able to defeat them, so they took hundreds of leaders, both big and small, to the capital and knelt in the court."

"Good! The Ming Dynasty did a good job!" The people all praised.

How I wish the Zhou Dynasty could be like the Ming Dynasty and send troops out to suppress the barbarians and make them kneel down and beg for mercy!

Upon hearing this, Ajinai sneered with disdain, saying that the wife of Marquis Yongchang, Gu Nanxi, was just like that and could only indulge in sexual fantasies.

How many capable generals are there in the entire Zhou Dynasty?

As soon as the troops were sent out, the Jianzhou Jurchens were frightened to the point of kneeling down and begging for mercy. It was simply a joke.

Gu Nanxi: "The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty rebuked the Jianzhou Jurchens to their faces, saying that they invaded the border and plundered the people, which was hard to tolerate. But since they came to confess their crimes, God has the virtue of mercy, so he will forgive them leniently."

These words really touched the hearts of the people of Da Zhou.

During previous peace talks, the ministers in the court always said that the Great Zhou Dynasty was a great country and that it should have the bearing of a great country.

This is what the Ming Dynasty is like as a great country!

Not only did he have dignity and magnanimity, he also demonstrated his ability and occupied the moral high ground!

The disdain in Ajinai's eyes almost turned into reality. The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty were like this. They were a country of etiquette and face. They could make foreigners stop by saying a few nice words and pretending to surrender, and in return they would receive a large amount of rewards.

However, the story did not end there, Gu Nanxi continued to tell it.

"The matter should have come to an end, but unfortunately, the leader of the Jianzhou Jurchens beat up the imperial chef at the banquet and even threatened to make trouble again when he returned. Afterwards, he even requested to be rewarded with a dragon robe, jade belt, and a golden hat, over and over again, without any limit to his demands."

Even Old Man Geng couldn't help cursing: "These barbarians are unworthy of being human beings! How dare they make so many demands?! They have never been taught etiquette and always go back on their words."

The other people were also filled with righteous indignation: "That's right, this Tartar is a Tartar! He doesn't know how to be grateful at all!"

"Let's first listen to how the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty will deal with them!"

When the boiling tide subsided a little, Gu Nanxi continued, "The emperor of the Ming Dynasty could no longer tolerate it, so he shouted slogans, smashed their nests, exterminated their species, and sent a large army to attack them!"

Destroy their nests and exterminate their species. These eight words are a wake-up call!

Everyone was shocked by the profound meaning of this sentence, and they even wondered if they had heard it wrong.

However, Gu Nanxi's next words proved that this was not just talk, but full action.

"The Ming army stayed there and carried out a month-long massacre. Therefore, Chenghua Liting was also called Jianzhou Monthly Massacre."

"The consequence is that the strong will be killed, the old and the young will be captured, just as the earth collapses and the fire is extinguished, just as the ice melts when the earth collapses. Their storage is emptied and their houses are covered with pigs. Their holes are blocked and their nests are empty. Within ten days, the enemy's territory will be desolate!"

Ajinai stood up suddenly, his eyes burning with anger, but also hiding a hint of fear and vigilance.

Is this the enemy policy of Yongchang Marquis' wife Gu Nanxi? !

A classmate beside Ajinai tugged at his sleeve and asked in confusion: "Ajinai, what's wrong with you?"

Ajinai then came to his senses and realized that he was no longer the second prince on the grassland, but Aji, a student in Baichuan Academy.

Ajinai pulled the corner of his mouth and said dryly, "I'm a little scared. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty is really too cruel. After all, God is merciful. There are many old, weak, sick and disabled people among the Jianzhou Jurchens..."

According to Gu Nanxi, more than a thousand Jianzhou Jurchens were killed, four to five hundred villages were destroyed, and all their savings, including cattle, horses, and livestock, were wiped out.

How cruel, how brutal!

Ajinai's classmates hesitated. Although they said so, they felt inexplicably happy in their hearts.

Among a group of students who were sitting quietly and obediently, suddenly a man named Ajinai stood up.

Ajinai's words were heard clearly by everyone present, including Gu Nanxi at the top.

Gu Nanxi smiled and said, "The practice of plowing the courtyard and sweeping the cave has existed since the Han Dynasty. The emperor of the Han Dynasty said that wherever the sun and moon shine, wherever the rivers flow, is the territory of our great Han Dynasty. If the people offend the strong, they will be punished even if they are far away!"

"The previous dynasty also said that all the barbarians inside and outside the country who dare to raise troops will be killed!"

"The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty said, no marriage, no compensation, no cession of territory, no annual tribute. The emperor guards the country's gates, the king dies for the country, the righteous and the militant fight in the battlefield, those who jump out of the beams must be killed no matter how strong they are, withdraw from the Great Wall, and keep your body intact!"

Gu Nanxi stood up, straightened his sleeves, and straightened his body.

She looked around, her sharp eyes seeming to sweep over everyone present.

The audience was silent.

Gu Nanxi seemed to be asking them, or the most distinguished person in the court: "May I ask you, what is the declaration of our Great Zhou Dynasty?"

This question hit everyone like a heavy hammer, especially the officials on vacation.

There were ancient people before us, and there will be successors in the future.

Where should the Great Zhou Dynasty go today?
