After the prince, Qi WuHuo sat quietly with his eyes closed. The second person who came in was Fourth Prince Li Hui who was dressed in civilian clothes.
Hui means sunlight, which can be seen from the name.
Now that Human Emperor already had great ambitions before he even ascended the throne.
Boasting a great day.
Fourth Prince Li Hui smiled and bowed his hands, his temperament was elegant and gentle, and said, "I have seen Mr. Qi."
Young Daoist said, "Please sit down..."
This young man with a gentle and simple temperament smiled and sat in front of young Daoist. Although he was a royal nobleman, the clothes he wore were extremely simple and ordinary, but they were worn by ordinary scholars. There was only a mountain-patterned jade pendant hanging around his waist. It was quite expensive and was given by the former emperor.
The impression of this Fourth Prince flows through Qi WuHuo's heart--
Li Hui, the fourth son of the current emperor, is intelligent and decisive. When he was five years old, he could already write a thousand-character essay, and he was extremely fluent.
He is ordinary in martial arts practice, originally a Daoist seed, but because he was born in the royal family, he was tainted by Human Dao Destiny. He was different from the purely self-centered path of Daoism, and could not follow the direction of Buddhist abandoning many causes and effects in his body. Therefore, he finally chose to study and study literature. He has a gentle personality, has a reputation as a virtuous person, and has made good friends with all major Aristocratic Clans.
It was arranged by the old emperor as a layer to buffer the conflict between the prince and Aristocratic Clan.
Very calm and clear.
He was aware of what the prince was doing, but he couldn't stop it. He just felt resentful for being born in the royal family. No one knew whether he had any thoughts of competing for the throne of the prince Eastern Palace.
But there is a hidden intelligence killer organization [Xuewenhui] under his command.
For some radical civilian officials, assassination methods were used to remove them to ensure that the public opinion atmosphere in the court was under control.
He repeatedly used the wording of poems and articles as an excuse to transfer some civil servants who were not under his command to Imperial Prison.
The methods used to attack political opponents are extremely cruel and cold.
But the imperial examinations were also promoted, and official lectures were promoted with great efforts, so that children of appropriate age in every city should go to school. Even during the farming season, it was necessary to ensure that children had half a month to read and read. The policy was mainly to reduce farmers' taxes, Light Labor and Low Taxes.
It is said that if everyone is literate and everyone is knowledgeable, there will be many talented people in the country, so there is no need to worry about the lack of national strength.
Regarding the position of Demon Race, it is the advocate of peace.
He advocated promoting [mutual market], and would rather the human dynasty produce more [year coins] than use weapons. He said, 'The land of our human race Central Land is very rich, and the year coins produced by this dynasty are not harmful to our dynasty. However, if we fight with swords and soldiers, there will be human casualties, and the loss of logistics and food will be ten times or even dozens of times the [year coins].'
'Why are we raising weapons?'
When I was young, I had a good relationship with Seventh Prince Li Zhai.
Later, they split from each other due to their positions and stopped communicating with each other.
He is good at calligraphy and painting.
At this moment, I was chatting with Qi WuHuo. He seemed to be very interested in the art of Daoist practice. He talked about Buddhism and Daoism, and mentioned poems, books, calligraphy and paintings, all of which were insightful. Finally, he smiled and said, "I wonder where Mr. Qi was born and who he studied under? I boast that I have met many famous masters and traveled around the world, but this is the first time I have seen someone with such magnanimity as Mr."
Qi WuHuo replied, "They are just people who practice Daoism in the mountains and fields."
Fourth Prince Seeing that he didn't want to say more and didn't force it, he just smiled and said:
"We had a great time chatting. If sir, you have time to come to Capital City, you can come and see me."
"You can go to the academy or the mansion."
"Just take out this thing and they will know."
Fourth Prince took out a jade plaque with the word Hui written on it, smiled slightly, bowed his hands, and then left.
"Hahahaha, is this finally my turn?"
"Fourth brother, you are really slow to speak!"
While laughing loudly, Seventh Prince also pushed in the door. He was tall, clasped his fists, and then sat down. He still persistently wanted to take Qi WuHuo to the long street outside to compete with fists, feet, and weapons. Qi WuHuo declined several times, which was regrettable, and he didn't ask any questions during the chat.
I'm just talking about the scenery on the border.
The food at the border is really terrible.
Mention the beauty Demon Race again.
He laughed loudly, which was different from the ambition shown by the prince and Fourth Prince's silent wooing.
Like a fool without any brains.
I like beautiful people, good wine and delicious food.
He is an absolute militant.
Cold and domineering, with a rude personality, he is secretly the contemporary leader of the military lineage.
There is even Demon Race in the army under his command.
He has won over the monsters of one race, and then wants to conquer another race.
Wrangling horses for three thousand miles, he once knocked on Demon Race's border gate in the name of seeking a beauty, and seized it. He did not take away the beauty, but took away all the human craftsmen and classics that had been snatched away, and built a Jingguan to scare the monsters. When he suppressed the border gate, Demon Race failed to break the direction he was in, but was pushed forward a lot by him.
Like a nail stuck there.
Kill ten of my men, and I will kill twenty of you.
Harm my whole town, Laozi will cook your ten cities!
My human race has a large population and if you have the guts, just fight me to the death!
Let's see who will be defeated first, or you will die first!
After my defeat, there are still those who come after you. Your ancestors have no sacrifices. Laozi Kill your monsters, destroy your clan, and dig up your roots!
I also want the beauties from your clan to dance and sing on your grave, and then Laozi will worship your mother in front of your grave.
General Demon Race was so angry that the three zombie gods jumped.
But he raised his glass and said with a smile, but he only said a few words and became anxious?
It is crazier than Demon Race. It deserves to be the bloodiest among human beings. It strives for victory and will never ask for mercy. It leaves no room for either the enemy or itself. It kills heavily and wins great, but it also causes heavy damage to soldiers and horses.
Different from Fourth Prince's stance, he believes that although [Sui Coin] can preserve the peace for a while, it has shattered the [bloody nature] of the human race. Today it will be given to ten cities, and tomorrow it will be given to a hundred cities. Demon Race's appetite will only get bigger and bigger, and it will look down on the human race more and more. It cannot resolve the conflict, it is just postponed, and there will be a battle in the future.
At that time, it was Demon Race who used the weapons purchased with human currency to kill and plunder human people.
It is better to leave war, death and killing in our generation, win in one go, break the opponent's backbone, and if you are afraid of fighting, nothing will happen? The king is the king, the minister is the minister, the father is the father, and the son is the son. It is a natural thing for children to be filial to their parents, so isn't it also a matter of course for a father to fight to the death for his son?
When Fourth Prince promotes mutual markets and currency.
Seventh Prince issued the [Demon Killing Order] at the border gate.
Anyone who kills a monster that was once an enemy of the human race, regardless of whether the shooter is a human race or a foreign race, will get ten golds if he kills one level.
In the end, he directly sold the Prince mansion in the dynasty, and piled the gold and Heavenly Emperor Coin into a hill at the border to reward the brave men.
To show that he will never go back Capital City and break off the relationship with his brother.
Among the Yellow Millet Dream Qi WuHuo saw, he was the only person in the royal family who was extremely bloody. He had shared joys and sorrows with Warrior General for forty years in the important border town. When the prince was deposed and the new emperor was established, Fourth Prince could not tolerate Aristocratic Clan and the royal family and committed suicide to thank his old friend.
Seventh Prince, who had broken off relations with his fourth brother for thirty years, led the Thirteenth Army and marched south in the name of [The Emperor is young and under the control of the Aristocratic Clan] [Remove the Left and Right Sides], in the end because Demon Race took the opportunity to enter, chose to change direction under the good situation, and rushed to the border to defend the enemy. The new king, who followed the emperor's order, personally led the army and attacked the army from behind and collapsed.
Seventh Prince still had a chance to fight, and finally committed suicide in anger to avoid the cruelty of the human army killing each other.
In that battle, the human race lost its generals at the border, and the border territory that had been conquered for forty years was pushed back. Three hundred thousand border troops were disarmed and returned to their fields, wearing plain clothes. The world was in turmoil. The new emperor followed the old emperor's instructions. If Seventh Prince rebelled, the border would be in chaos. If they turned back, they would be killed. Qi WuHuo was used to grant amnesty to the world and exempted from taxes for three years to reassure the world.
This is the way of checks and balances. As a ruler, you must pay attention to checks, balances and control of others.
When young Daoist in the dream rushed over, he only saw Seventh Prince's eyes wide open with anger. Although he was dead, his eyes still refused to close. His soldiers cried and said that this rare general in the human dynasty finally screamed in anger and was filled with grief and anger. The last words he left behind were--
You are not a king!
I will not surrender!
No father!
No son!
You regard me as a piece of grass, and I regard you as an enemy. If I die today, it is for the army, not for you!
Only knowing the throne but not the world, knowing the royal family but not knowing the hundreds of clans, what a small family spirit!
Now that I see my old friend, he is still the same as when he was young. Even Qi WuHuo has a hidden emotion in his heart. Then Seventh Prince laughed a few times and said, "Originally, I just wanted to see what kind of person the girl praised, but I still have my eyesight. Come and come, there is no wine here, so I will drink tea instead of wine. If this gentleman has the opportunity to go to Capital City, don't forget to meet us."
"Next time, have a nice drink."
Then he got up and left.
Qi WuHuo saw Seventh Prince and left a command talisman.
He put away the two talismans. Among the two princes, Fourth Prince ruled the country with literary talent but lacked strength. Seventh Prince was good at being a Martial General who suppressed the border and was not suitable to be the leader of a dynasty. Otherwise, there would be a sea of blood and endless killings. It was better to point the murderous intention at the enemy.
But they have a more important problem. They are already on the path of spiritual practice of Human Dao Destiny.
It even went very far.
It's the way to plunder.
It's impossible to be willing to try the path launched by Qi WuHuo.
Suddenly there was a sound on the door, and the young man Prince Qin, who was about fifteen or sixteen years old, walked in. After entering the place and leaving the gaze of the prince and Fourth Prince, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a slight smile, "I have seen Daoist Master Qi."
Qi WuHuo nodded and said, "What do you want to ask?"
"Is it because of confusion about cultivation, or is it because of predictions and interpretations, or is it just chatting?"
"Ah..., I don't have anything to ask."
"I'm just here with a few brothers."
That boy Prince Qin seemed a little embarrassed.
Young Daoist said, "Then it's just chatting."
He asked again, "I wonder what you want to talk about?"
The young man Prince Qin thought for a moment and said, "Anything is okay?"
"Natural."
Such a lenient thing made Prince Qin not know what to talk about for a while, so he laughed at himself, "As for small talk, fourth brother and Seventh Brother are better at Wenzhi and Kung Fu. We must have talked about them before. When the gentleman said this, my mind was empty for a while. I thought about many questions and didn't know whether I should ask them."
"Then young Daoist spoke in a gentle tone, just saying that you can think slowly.
The young man Prince Qin suddenly said, "Sir, do you think the world is in great peace now?"
Qi WuHuo raised his eyes. "You have been called a saint, doesn't it count as great governance?"
Prince Qin said, "... If the world still has grievances that have not been exposed, and everyone in the world has been deceived by a huge scam, is this considered great governance?"
His voice paused, straightened his back slightly, and said seriously, "Excuse me for being rude, my sister helped the Daoist Master pay for the exploration of the secret earlier. Ming Zhen Dao Alliance naturally refused to say what the Daoist Master asked about, but in my mind I deduced what the Daoist Master got from solving the puzzle, and based on the Tao Alliance points that my sister paid on my behalf, I roughly inferred the scope of the matter that the Master asked about."
"There are Divine Ability among them, there are classics, and there are also secrets of the past."
"Let me make a guess."
"This is about Jinzhou, right?"
Young Daoist raised his eyes slightly.
This was intentional on his part. He did not purchase any more classics to confuse his judgment. He wanted to see if Prince could grasp this clue and guess something. Also, had the son of the prince tried to understand what happened in Jinzhou back then? Was he a person who just wanted to enjoy himself, or was he just a mask when he was wandering around?
Prince Qin was sitting and approached and asked:
"Sir, when you ask about what happened in Jinzhou back then, you should be a person from back then. You know that people today are surrounded by a huge secret."
"Although the Aristocratic Clan family also knows part of the information, they are hindered by the power of Human Dao Destiny and help others. However, what is false must be false. The name of Human Emperor now was obtained with the blood of millions of innocent people back then. Although I am young, I know it is wrong. You have a great talent and say that you can ask about everything. So I have a question."
"Can the current emperor be called Human Emperor? He claims to be a saint, but can he be called a saint?"
Qi WuHuo raised his eyes slightly.
In these two inquiries, there was a hint of vigor, like a young tiger stroking its paws.
He sat up slightly and did not answer, but instead asked:
"Do you know what the way of the Human Emperor is? What are the emperor and the people?"
The young man Prince Qin followed the royal education and subconsciously answered:
"If the people disobey the king, it will be a crime!"
"Herding" means herding the people. The meaning of this sentence is that it is the greatest sin for the people to disobey the king's orders.
Thousands of years ago, there were wise men and great talents, but they did not obey the king's orders.
So although he was not guilty, he was executed. Someone asked angrily, and the prime minister replied.
Such people are talented, but they do not obey the king's orders.
They cannot be driven by criminal law, nor can they be tempted by benefits. They farm their own crops, dig wells and drink from them. Such people, although they exist in Human Emperor's territory, cannot be used by Human Emperor and cannot be restrained by the emperor's name. They are like a thousand-mile horse. Although it is capable, it is not driven by others and has a reputation that can influence the rest of the people. It is a "black sheep".
He should be punished to establish his authority.
After Prince Qin finished speaking, he saw that the Daoist in front of him was silent, so he felt something and asked:
"Mr. Qi, what do you think?"
Young Daoist replied, "Wrong."
Prince Qin asked doubtfully, "What is wrong with this sage's words?"
The Daoist in front of him lowered his eyes and said slowly:
"It's not the people who disobey the king who are guilty, but the king who disobeys the people who is the thief."
Such words almost directly reversed the current Dao of Human Emperor Destiny.
The young man Prince Qin almost felt that the man in front of him was crazy at first, but after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be a trace of truth in such words. His heart was beating wildly, and he suppressed the throbbing in his heart and stepped forward. Although he was young, he became more and more respectful and asked, "Why do you teach me, sir?"
Qi WuHuo opening.
It was also the opening of Master WuHuo back then.
The first sentence shocked young Prince Qin so much that he almost forgot to breathe.
That's the way to say it--
"If you accept the country's filth, you are called the ruler of the country; if you accept the country's misfortune, you are called the king of the world."
"Food is the most important thing for the people."
"And you regard the people as your heaven."
"So he is not Human Emperor, but the emperor!"
"The emperor of the world is not the lord of the people, he should be the [son of the people]."
"The people are the most valuable, the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important."
Starting with the plundering method that reversed Human Emperor's luck during this period, and based on Yellow Millet Dream's seventy years of thinking and experience, young Daoist gradually came, making Prince Qin's expression first change from angry and about to get up, to hesitant, and finally turned into a look of concentrated thinking, without knowing the passage of time.
Don't feel that you are moving forward, don't ask about ghosts and gods, but ask about the common people.
After a long time, he was finally convinced and looked at the Daoist wearing the old man mask and said:
"Mr. Qi...Mr. Qi..."
"He is truly the most unparalleled person in the world. Compared to what my sister said..."
The young man Prince Qin's voice paused slightly, as if he felt something.
Unparalleled Grandmaster?
The surname is Qi? My sister is Mountain God mask, and this gentleman is old man Mask?
It is said that instinctive choices must also have tendencies...
Could it be said?
He subconsciously raised his head, and then asked respectfully, "Xiao Wang still has a question to ask."
"Please."
"I don't know your name, but Qi WuHuo, Master WuHuo?"
