Chapter 783 Does your conscience not hurt?
The phrase "prosperity, the people suffer; death, the people suffer" can be said to express the suffering of the people.

Since ancient times, regardless of any dynasty, whether they prosper or fail, the common people always suffer.

When a dynasty rises, it must build a large number of buildings and build luxurious palaces, which will bring huge corvees to the people. When a dynasty perishes, it will be the people who suffer in the war.

But these so-called heroes in troubled times, have they ever considered this?Their focus has always been on the emperor's hegemony. Who has ever really cared about whether the people are suffering or not?
Even though he, Liu Bei, has always loved the people like a son, how did he ever think of this?
Seeing Liu, Guan and Zhang stunned, Ouyang Fei sighed again: "Actually, in this world, it doesn't matter who rules? People never want much, just a stable living environment."

"That's why Fei doesn't want to tell Uncle Huang any great truths. Fei just wants to end the troubled times as soon as possible and create a peaceful and stable world."

"Cheng Kun and Fei are siblings, and Wen Hou is his father-in-law, so Fei doesn't have so many choices. I can only help Wen Hou to bring peace to the world, so that all people in the world can live a good life."

Speaking of this, Ouyang Fei looked at Liu Bei who had a wry smile on his face, and said helplessly: "It's not that Fei doesn't understand, in fact, you are the best candidate to be the emperor. Wei Mo has a better understanding of the sufferings of the people."

"Nevertheless, I, Ouyang Xuanming, am not a person who understands righteousness. I don't want to help my relatives, so this throne, Wenhou is definitely seated."

"I'm not afraid to say something to offend Wen Hou in front of Lingqi. Wen Hou is just a warrior. If you let him charge into battle, he will naturally be invincible, but let him govern the country, but he is still powerless. "

After hearing Ouyang Fei's words, Lu Lingqi had a wry smile on her face. How could she not know what kind of person her father was?Although Ouyang Fei's words are not pleasant, they are true.

Only to hear Ouyang Fei continue: "So I have an idea, wait until Wenhou has conquered the world, ascended the throne as the empress, separate the general from the government, and Wenhou will be the emperor, control the military power of the whole country, and form a cabinet council under the emperor."

"Parliament is in charge of civil servants and is responsible for governing the country. It is up to the parliament to discuss any policies. As long as more than [-]% of the members of the parliament agree to govern, government orders can be issued. The emperor cannot interfere easily, unless it is a policy that is obviously not conducive to the development of the country. The emperor Only one word can be vetoed."

"In this way, Wen Hou's throne is extremely stable, but the country will not be messed up because he doesn't know how to govern. It can be said to have the best of both worlds."

Ouyang Fei slightly changed the constitutional monarchy of later generations, combined with the social environment at that time, and gave such a policy.

Ouyang Fei's words were very straightforward, and Liu Bei understood immediately after hearing it. He had to admit that this was already the most appropriate arrangement under the circumstances that Lu Bu must become emperor.

Ouyang Fei believed that Lu Bu would never object to this proposal, that being able to be emperor and enjoy the rights of emperor without having to worry about state affairs was exactly what a person like him could only wish for.

"I hope that Uncle Huang can let go of that little...dream in his heart, and sincerely help Wen Hou to govern the country well. I can recommend Uncle Huang as the chief assistant of the cabinet. Under one person, above ten thousand people, in the future It can also leave a strong mark in the history books."

Hearing Ouyang Fei describe his ambition as a dream, even Liu Bei himself was a little funny, but now, Ouyang Fei's proposal is his best way out.

Even if it didn't fall into Lu Bu's hands, he didn't know if he had the fate to sit on the throne, and he didn't even know how many years he would have to waste, and where he would go in the end.

At least Ouyang Fei's arrangement allowed him to see his future. Most importantly, according to Ouyang Fei's arrangement, it seemed that Lu Bu was the emperor of this country, but in fact he was in power, which was enough for him to express his ambitions up.

Thinking of this, Liu Bei bowed deeply to Ouyang Fei again, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, sir, and I am willing to contribute my part to the peace and prosperity."

"Hahahaha... good."

Just as Liu Bei finished speaking, a cheerful laugh came from outside the prison, and Lu Bu strode into the prison with Diao Chan and Zhang Liao.

He looked at Ouyang Fei with great satisfaction, obviously agreeing with his constitutional monarchy. Seeing him coming in, Ouyang Fei and Zhang Chengkun saluted together: "Wen Hou (father-in-law)."

"Please get up quickly." Lu Bu stepped into the prison, hurriedly helped Ouyang Fei and Zhang Chengkun up, then looked at Liu Bei, and said with a smile: "Xuande brother, with your help, Bu Ke will be safe and sound!"

When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled bitterly and sighed, "You have a good son-in-law, Marquis Wen!"

He really wanted to ask Lu Bu at this time, in the future you will enjoy the emperor's power but don't have to do the emperor's work, and I will care about the emperor's heart, but can only receive a salary. Will your conscience not hurt?
"Hahahaha..." Lu Bu laughed triumphantly again, and patted Zhang Chengkun's shoulder heavily.

When he was besieged by Cao Jun, he decisively made a promise to marry a daughter to Zhang Chengkun who appeared outside the encirclement. It was the most wise decision he made in his life, and it was enough to make him proud for the rest of his life.

……

When Liu Bei joined forces, the power under Lu Bu's command rose sharply, and the [-] soldiers could be used with confidence. Naturally, Lu Bu would not give Liu Bei many soldiers and horses, but let him command the white scorpion soldiers.

Anyway, this army was originally Liu Bei's loyalists. Lu Bu couldn't fully trust them, and there were only a thousand of them. Zhang Chengkun could slaughter them all by himself, and he was not afraid of them making trouble.

There was another banquet in the governor's mansion, which was naturally held by Liu Bei and others. During the banquet, Liu Bei uttered a news that shocked all the civil and military men under Lu Bu's command.

"Wen Hou, Cao Cao knew that there was not enough food and grass in Xiapi City. A few days ago, Guo Jia made a plan to dig ditches to irrigate the city with water from Yisi, so as not to communicate with Xiapi inside and outside."

"After flooding, a lot of grain stored in the city will become moldy and rotten, increasing the loss of grain and grass in the warm weather. This is a poisonous strategy that must be guarded against, and I hope the warm weather will be careful with it."

Liu Bei was very single. Since he had decided to tie up Lu Bu's chariot, he no longer thought about it and revealed all the information he knew about Cao Cao.

Lu Bu looked at Liu Bei with relief, and said, "It's fortunate that Xuande reminded us, otherwise, if the flood floods the city, our army will be caught off guard and may suffer huge losses."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Ouyang Fei who was sitting on the seat next to him, and asked, "Xuan Ming, how should we deal with this plan?"

Before Ouyang Fei could speak, Zhang Chengkun took the lead and said, "Father-in-law, don't worry about it. Xuan Ming already has the ability to overwhelm mountains and seas. Talking about the water in Yisi, even if Cao Cao brings in the tide of the East China Sea, will not help."

"Oh?" Lu Bu and all the civil and military officials looked at Ouyang Fei with burning eyes.

Zhang Chengkun's words are really not bragging, Ouyang Fei has a water spirit orb in his hand, coupled with thousands of years of Taoism, his ability to control water will not be inferior to the Dragon King of the East China Sea.
