The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 1213 Premeditated Rebellion (Part )

"what?"

This was a strategy that the two had discussed long ago, so Li You was not surprised. It was just that it was announced in his name at the beginning. Now that the matter has come to a close, it has become the emperor's name. Li You was a little puzzled and asked: "Brother, didn't you say it was announced in the name of the King of Qi?"

"Ah"

Shi Luodie chuckled with contempt: "My dear brother, it's not that I look down on you, you are just a vassal king, not even a legitimate one. Even if we consider you as a concubine, your prestige and ability are far inferior to that of Wu Wang Li Ke."

“What’s your appeal?”

"From the beginning, the people will not agree with the notice issued in your name. You cannot represent the court yet."

Well.
Shi Luodie unceremoniously opened up the scars in Li You's heart, making his face turn red and blue, and he stared at Shi Luodie viciously. He really wanted to order the people outside to rush in, tie up this Turkic Khan, and hand him over to the court.

After hesitating for a moment, he gave up this unrealistic idea.

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Even though he has 200,000 infantrymen under his command, it is hard to say how many people will support him if he rebels. Only the Turks will stand firmly on his side, and now he cannot do without the help of the enemy's cavalry.

Even if we want to deal with the other party, it is far from the right time.

Li You made up his mind that after conquering the country, he would definitely wipe out all the Turks. He would skin the Turkic Khan who had always bossed him around, and grind his bones to ashes to relieve his hatred.

But at the moment, he should suppress his anger for the time being and coax the other party to work for him.

Shi Luodie smiled slightly, not caring, he knew very well that Li You was angry. During this period, he had been mocking him a lot, and he attacked him so mercilessly not to show off, he was not so superficial, but to fight for the dominant position.

Over the past six months, as the war went smoothly, Li You became a little proud and didn't take himself seriously. He just wanted to let Li You know who was the big and small king, and in this major event, he, Shi Luodie, was the real decision maker.

Li You must obey his arrangements in everything, otherwise they will go their separate ways.

He didn't believe that Li You would give up his rebellion when the situation was so good. When he was just a figurehead prince in Chang'an, Li You couldn't let go of his ambition and secretly made various preparations. Now that he had an army of 200,000, how could he be willing to hand it over again?
Now is the time to control him. Otherwise, in his heart, I will become his running dog and can only follow his orders.

When Shi Luodie saw that Li You was furious but didn't dare to get angry, he knew that his guess was right. Even if this guy wanted to make trouble, he would have to wait until he ascended the throne. In his plan, there would be no such day for him.

The way to control people is not complicated. It is a matter of combining firmness and flexibility, and emphasizing both kindness and severity.

Apply pressure when it is necessary and comfort when it is necessary. Excessive pressure will alienate the other party and even make them resentful; excessive comfort will make the other party complacent, arrogant and not take the superior seriously.

Only by combining the two can we find the right way.

"My dear brother, please be patient. Raising an army is a big deal. Your entire life and property are staked on it."

Shi Luodie stopped when he saw that things were going well. After suppressing Li You's arrogance, he comforted him, "Brother said this just to calm you down. Only by staying absolutely sober can we win in the end. Don't get carried away and make the wrong move."

"One wrong move can lead to an irreparable end"

"Big brother is right. It was me who was reckless."

Li You suppressed his anger again, forced a smile and asked, "Brother, just say it, I will listen to you."

"Um"

Shi Luodie explained: "Now tens of millions of people in Shandong are all looking forward to it, hoping that the court will recognize their ownership of the land. At this time, issuing an imperial edict in the name of the emperor will greatly meet the expectations of the people."

"They will believe without hesitation and will support the emperor and the court greatly."

"Ah, brother, this will be detrimental to our uprising, we can't do this!" Li You said hurriedly.

"Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't finished talking yet."

Shi Luodie interrupted Li You and continued, "But don't forget that the court is now dominated by the aristocracy. To put it bluntly, the emperor is just a puppet. He has no say and cannot make decisions."

"If their fundamental interests are affected, the nobles will definitely fight to the death to oppose it. They will immediately declare that you are the one who forged the imperial decree and veto this decree."

"It is more painful to lose something than never to have it at all."

At this point, Shi Luodie smiled proudly: "The people who were just overjoyed and fell into madness will certainly be in great pain. This is equivalent to giving them hope a moment ago, but now their hands are taken away. After the pain, there will be anger." "They will feel that they have been deceived, fooled, and played, and that they supported the emperor in vain. Their feelings towards the court and the emperor will change instantly, and their hatred will reach its peak in an instant."

Li You's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said excitedly: "Yes, human nature is indeed like this. If it were me, I would also want to destroy the world to vent my anger."

"At this time, we should take advantage of the situation and call on the people of Shandong to raise the banner of justice. We will surely be able to gather a hundred thousand people and form an army of hundreds of thousands. In the name of defending the land, we will fight against the tyrant emperor and the corrupt officials. We will surely be able to capture Chang'an and seize the country in one fell swoop."

"wrong"

Seeing that Li You was immersed in his imagination, Shi Luodie said decisively: "The time has not come yet. Although there are many people in Shandong, they are all ordinary people. They have not been trained and do not have sophisticated weapons. How can they be a match for the imperial army?"

"If you start a war in this way, you will definitely fail, my dear brother."

Well.
The smile on Li You's face just started to spread, but then it froze. He was hit again, and he looked as if he had eaten shit. However, he had been hit by the opponent many times and had become accustomed to it.

Shi Luodie said nonchalantly: "My dear brother, you really need to stand up now. In fact, the moment you falsely conveyed the imperial edict, you were already a traitor. The court will surely kill you immediately, so you have already started a rebellion."

“But the approach can be more flexible.”

"You can issue a statement in Shandong in the name of the King of Qi, saying that the emperor cares about the people's hardship and has indeed issued an imperial decree to return the land to the people."

"It's just that there are treacherous officials in the court. They are all representatives of the ministers' clans. They have united to intimidate the emperor and even undermine his power, forcing the emperor to revoke his order."

At this point, Shi Luodie's eyes became stern, and he said grimly: "In short, the emperor should be described as a wise ruler who loves his people like his own children. However, the treacherous officials in the court are in power. They coerce the emperor, making it impossible for him to seek benefits for his people."

"Tell me, if the people knew this was the situation in the court, what would they think?"

Well.
Li You was shocked and looked at the rough-looking prairie man in front of him in surprise. He never expected that the other party would have such unpredictable wisdom and could understand people's hearts thoroughly. If he really did it this way, the result would be self-evident.

The common people have never been to school, so how could they know that the aristocratic families are in power in the court.

They only knew that the emperor was the most powerful. If it was an imperial decree from the emperor, they would be angry but dare not say anything. After all, since ancient times, the people would never rebel because of anger, but only because they could not live anymore.

The imperial edict did not suit their wishes, and no matter how angry they were, they did not dare to rebel.

But if they knew that the emperor, who represented the will of the world, had agreed to give them the land, but was blocked by the ministers below, they would vent their anger without scruples and demand the execution of the treacherous ministers.

Give the world a peaceful and peaceful life, and of course, give the land back to them.

When they openly support the emperor for the greater good, but secretly seek the private benefit of acquiring land, the enemies of this group of people are only "a few treacherous ministers", and they have the prince himself to stand in front and make decisions for them, so they are naturally fearless.

"If you follow your previous suggestion, the people will have to face the emperor, and you, Li You, are also a traitor. Who will follow you in rebellion?"

Shi Luodie saw that Li You, who was slow-witted, had figured it out, so he continued to analyze, "If you follow this Khan's method, then you will become a wise king who pleads for the people and a loyal minister who supports the emperor. At this time, you only need to raise the banner of protecting the king, punishing the treacherous, clearing the court, and protecting the country."

"As the saying goes, if you are right, you will be strong and your words will go smoothly. This will surely make the people willing to serve you."

“Hahaha, that’s high!”

Li You slammed the table in excitement and walked around the room excitedly. If this were the case, he could deceive the world and even appease his soldiers. He could minimize the pressure and impact brought by the rebellion and complete the initial change of the situation by deceiving himself.

After conquering half of the country, it doesn't matter even if everyone knows that you are rebelling. Because there is no way out, you can only go all the way. In addition, the huge benefits brought by rebellion are enough to stimulate people's ambitions and desires, and they will unswervingly support you.

After walking a few steps excitedly, Li You paused again, turned around and asked, "Brother, what if the emperor issues an order to report this matter again, saying that I am a traitor and deceived the people?"

"hehe."

Shi Luodie picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, then said calmly, "The emperor has been coerced and imprisoned by treacherous officials, and he has no control over anything. These are the orders issued by those treacherous officials under duress, and they are not the emperor's true intentions."

"The right to interpret the emperor's true intentions is in our hands."

"And you, the King of Qi, have just learned the 'real situation' of the emperor. You must tell the people. They must not obey his wishes, or else those treacherous ministers will succeed."

Li You thought for a moment and asked hesitantly, "Everyone has their own opinions. Will the people really believe me?"
