The sky is vast.
This place is far away from Qingjiang.
Zhuang Gaoxian turned around, and Du Ruhui stepped in front of him.
"Why did the Prime Minister stop me just now?" he asked quietly.
"The country won a new victory in the war, and the country expanded its borders. But at the same time, General Duan was deposed, General He died in the battle, and Dong A also suffered misfortune. The current Zhuang country still needs Song Hengjiang very much." Du Ruhui said: "In terms of blood, he
Since he is your majesty's uncle, the country of Zhuang needs him even more. With such fighting prowess, he should not die in your majesty's hands."
He noticed that when he mentioned "uncle and grandpa", Zhuang Gaoxian frowned.
A king like Zhuang Gaoxian is indifferent to emotions and will not show his emotions easily. The reason why he was aware of this was because he specifically told him to pay attention to his words. The king did not like to hear such words again.
Du Ruhui's wisdom is very capable of understanding this, but his expression is very calm. He doesn't like to listen, but he has to listen. Sometimes the facts are not important, and the mood of the country's leader is not important. What is important is whether it is beneficial to the country and the country.
Zhuang Gaoxian certainly understands this truth.
So he just paused for a moment and then said, "But his raising of demons is always a hidden danger."
No matter how he treated others, he always maintained respect for Du Ruhui. When he was the prince, Du Ruhui was his teacher. When he was recuperating in seclusion, it was Du Ruhui who supported the country with one hand.
Du Ruhui played the most important role in a series of major events, including his achievement of becoming a real person and conquering the Yong Kingdom. This respect is deserved.
"If Your Majesty is invincible, even if you raise a demon, who would dare to exterminate the demon and defend the way? Any explanation will be regarded as the truth. On the contrary, if Your Majesty has no power to restrain the chicken, and someone comes and says that you are a demon, who will do it?
You prove? So in this kind of thing, what matters in the final analysis is strength."
Du Ruhui asked: "Is it a wise choice to cut off one's own arms and weaken one's own strength in order to avoid future risks?"
Before hearing the secret today, he would not agree to take risks because of Song Hengjiang. But after learning that Song Hengjiang's biological sister was Zhuang Gaoxian's grandmother, and that Song Hengjiang himself was Zhuang Gaoxian's biological uncle, he had no idea about Song Hengjiang in the past.
Many doubts about Xing Zhi have been explained.
In particular, Song Hengjiang did not hesitate to raise a demon to keep Song Wanxi. Even though he knew that he was no longer a human being after becoming a demon, he was still willing to risk his own life to do this. The blood and family relationship between him and Song Wanxi was extremely deep and important.
This blood and family affection is very likely to transfer to Zhuang Gaoxian.
For now, Song Hengjiang's reliability has greatly increased. So the strategy for dealing with the Qingjiang Aquatic Tribe will naturally need to be adjusted accordingly.
He has always taught Zhuang Gaoxian that a king has no personal likes or dislikes and puts the interests of the community first.
A reliable Song Hengjiang is definitely worth taking some risks.
And the risk may not be as great as imagined. The Underwater Devil's Cave has been hidden for two hundred and eighteen years, and with the cover of him and Zhuang Gaoxian, it will only become more hidden.
Zhuang Gaoxian was silent for a moment and then directly confessed his mistake: "What the Prime Minister said is that I have lost my composure."
After a pause, he asked again: "Where did the Gu Yi that Song Hengjiang talked about come from? There is no detailed history. She was of ordinary origin. How dare you harm Qingjiang Shuijun's sister, Taizu's queen?"
He overlooked the mountains and rivers at his feet, which were the country's land and country, and were now unique to him: "Now that I think about the story of Taizu's founding of the country, there seems to be a lot of secrets in it."
Song Hengjiang had obviously already thought about it, and immediately bowed and replied: "If the old minister guessed correctly...she should be related to the White Bone Path, and may even be the Saint of the White Bone Path back then!"
"White Bone Path?" Zhuang Gaoxian was obviously very surprised by this guess.
How could there be a saint from the White Bone Path in the harem of Taizu Zhuang Chengqian?
"There are some errors and omissions in the historical records of that year, and many truths have been lost. However, I still have some insights after searching for historical materials. Today, I listened to Suijun's words and confirmed each other. I probably understand a lot."
Du Ruhui glanced at Zhuang Gaoxian, but almost didn't say directly that Zhuang Chengqian, the founder of the Zhuang Kingdom, had revised the historical records and obscured the historical truth. Historical writings have always been as iron as iron, and a ruler who interferes with historical records is a stain that cannot be washed away.
"The achievements of the Taizu of this dynasty are threefold. The first is to fight against Han Yin and build the ancestral temple of Zhuang State. The second is to rectify the origins and wipe out the evil cult White Bone Way. The third is to unite the scenery and Taoism to stabilize the country of Zhuang and lay the foundation for long-term peace and stability."
The so-called "joining Jing and Tao" is a glorified term. In fact, it means submitting to Jing Guo, joining the Dao vassal state system, and gaining political and resource support from Jing Guo.
Of course, under the situation of the year, this was definitely a step for an antelope to hang its horns. Zhuang Chengqian, the ancestor of Zhuang State, had a broad vision and was not in the game. He got rid of the interference from all parties of Qin and Yong, jumped out of the quagmire of the Western Border, attracted Jing State into the game, and got out of the predicament in one fell swoop.
It was a perfect move. For Zhuang Guo Sheji, it can be regarded as a great achievement.
"But after the incident in Maple Forest City, this dynasty destroyed the White Bone Road again. In my spare time, the old minister couldn't help but think of a question. The current White Bone Road was built by Ouyang Lie, Lu Yan and other old demons who had been running it for hundreds of years. But back then,
When did the White Bone Path that Taizu wiped out rise again?"
Du Ruhui whispered: "It's not recorded in the history books."
Zhuang Gaoxian's expression did not change, and his heart was filled with shock.
Du Ruhui's meaning was already very obvious, how could he not hear it?
The current Prime Minister of Zhuang State suspects that among the forces that Zhuang Chengqian relied on when he founded the country, there was the existence of the White Bone Dao. In fact, the White Bone Dao was one of the main forces supporting Zhuang Chengqian in establishing the country!
On the one hand, Zhuang Chengqian became brothers with Song Hengjiang and formed a blood alliance. He canonized Song Hengjiang's sister Song Wanxi as the queen. In order to avoid the influence of intermarriage between Renjun and the Shui tribe, Song Wanxi changed her name to Xiwan. On the other hand, he also adopted the Holy Maiden Valley of the White Bone Path.
Yi is a concubine and uses the power of the White Bone Dao.
With the support of the Qingjiang Shui Tribe and the White Bone Tao, Zhuang Chengqian was able to face the strong pressure from the Yong Kingdom and successfully establish the country.
Gu Yi's murder of Song Wanxi cannot be regarded as a simple emotional entanglement, but may be more likely to be the struggle between the interests of the Bone Tao and the Qingjiang Shui Tribe behind the scenes.
And Zhuang Chengqian chose the Qingjiang Shui Tribe, killed Gu Yi with his own hands, and wiped out the White Bone Road in the territory. Later, the White Bone Road in the Zhuang territory ceased, and Song Hengjiang became the master of the Qingjiang River in 800 miles, called Shuijun, and sat side by side with Zhuang Chengqian.
The result of the struggle.
In addition, the matter of eradicating the Tao of White Bones created the conditions for Zhuang Chengqian to get involved with the Taoist sect. The Taoist cult, which claims to be orthodox in the Taoist sect, is the most taboo of the Taoist sect!
Including why Taizu Zhuang Chengqian, a real person in the world, died decades after the founding of the country. Historical records say that he died of serious injuries, but now it seems that it may be related to the revenge of the White Bone Dao...
These thrilling past events are hidden in the history of Ruyan. As long as you sort it out, it will be a wonderful drama. Unfortunately, the characters on the stage have disappeared. Today, there is only a possessed Song Wanxi and a lingering one.
Song Hengjiang.
This is the cruelty of time, but also the greatness of time!

ps: Please take a day off. My best friend got married last week and was the best man. I couldn't write for two days because I had a few chapters saved, but I managed to get through it. I was the best man again on National Day, something I couldn't refuse.
It's the time when the fourth volume is coming to an end, and I need to think carefully about it. Writing it is especially time-consuming. I can't make it through, so I have to take a leave of absence.
So there will be no update tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. You don’t have to wait.
Happy National Day.
Will be updated on October 2nd.
This chapter has been completed!
