Chapter 149 From now on, there will be no emperor in the world!

In the 17th year of Taiping's reign in Dayan, Zhang Julu, the great sage and mentor of Taiping Road, raised an uprising and led an army of 500,000 to attack Tai'an, the capital of Dayan, and beheaded Emperor Liu Hong, thus marking the end of the reign.

The Great Yan Dynasty, which lasted for 423 years, has come to an end.

When the historian put pen to paper, a new chapter has been opened.

After the fall of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Taoist dressed in yellow stood in front of the Luoyang Palace, which had stood majestically for hundreds of years, and loudly announced to the world that he had abolished the imperial system and would never touch the golden dragon chair in this life.

And in full view of the public and under the congratulations of all the officials, he struck out thunder from his palm and blasted the dragon chair of the Great Flame Emperor into smithereens!

His determination is evident from this!

It also made those so-called "courtiers" who were willing to take refuge in Zhang Julu and welcome him as Zhengshuo completely confused.

I have always refused to accept the throne of the emperor and gave way to meditating while walking. Isn't it just a matter of meaning and just sitting on it?

You directly blasted the Golden Dragon Chair into powder today. Who will dare to propose this in the future?

As soon as this news came out, the whole world couldn't help but cause an uproar.

Taian.

After the turmoil subsided and a few days passed, order and calm were restored to this once majestic capital city.

Of course, one of the reasons is not to commit any crimes and not to put pressure on the people.

All in all, in a short period of time, the situation is even better than that of the previous dynasty.

At the very least, there are no more noble disciples who dare to ride horses and cause trouble in public.

At this time, on a pavilion.

There was a Taoist wearing a yellow robe with some gray hair on his temples, sitting opposite a Confucian scholar in gray.

In front of the two of them, there was just a wooden table and two cups of hot tea, which looked extremely simple.

"While the governor of Bingzhou was still hesitant, Tai'an in the Great Yan Dynasty had already turned into smoke, so he simply surrendered his military power in order to protect himself."

"Zhu Yu and Na Zheng and Zhang Ling fought against each other. They only defended but did not attack. After you broke through the Great Yan and drove the army to attack from both sides, you were defeated on the battlefield."

"It is only a matter of time before the remaining Jingxiang and Jiangnan are in the palm of your hand. As for Xiliang, although there is a small chaos, it is not harmful."

"Based on this, it seems that it is a foregone conclusion that the world of Great Yan will be controlled by you."

"On the other hand, you really don't want to get your hands on the throne?"

The scribe's words conveyed the meaning of emotion and inquiry.

For thousands of years, starting from the emperor who ruled the world a long time ago, that supreme throne has attracted countless people's yearning for it.

But his disciple did the opposite and abandoned him like a pair of worn-out shoes.

This attitude is really difficult for Zheng Xiu to understand.

Questioning the teacher who studied with less and helped him a lot, Ji Qiu smiled nonchalantly, picked up the tea in the cup, looked at the hot tea with some tea leaves floating in it, and spoke softly:

"Is the throne so important?"

"For one life, I was honored and shining like the sun, but in the final analysis, it was just one life of glory and wealth."

"Teacher, have you forgotten?"

"When I was young, I once told you that besides my own cultivation, what I wanted was something else."

"There are some things that I can't quite understand to you, because you are not me, so you may not understand them well."

"But my ten years of hard work have not wavered to this day, and I have no regrets even if I pay a huge price. Based on this story, I think you should have seen something when you grow old, right?"

In response to this answer, the scribe sitting across from him pondered, and then smiled heartily for a long time:

"When it comes to sincerity and character, you are much better than me."

"But have you ever thought about how you will govern the world if you don't sit on that throne, how you will pacify the noble families from all over the world, and how you will fulfill your promise to make everyone in the world well fed and clothed.

Is there any opportunity for practice?"

"If war breaks out all over the world, everyone wants to seize the foundation of the emperor's empire, and they fight endlessly under the banner of restoring the Great Flame, how should you deal with it?"

The scribe's expression slightly condensed, then his tone changed, and his sentences were sharp and poignant, all of which were quite difficult questions.

These are all things Ji Qiu needs to consider carefully.

But how could this person not be prepared for this?

Ji Qiu's expression was calm and composed, as if he had expected it. He simply said to Zheng Xiu's question:

"Someone has to do it."

"Master Zheng, you must know that this person is a species that will gradually get used to it."

"If I dethrone the throne today, it will definitely cause an uproar in the world and make people's hearts wander. But if we resist, what will happen in five or ten years?"

"When the common people gradually adapt, although things like class will never be eliminated as power arises."

"But at the very least, if my wish comes true, when ordinary people look to the top, their eyes will no longer be mixed with the fear that they dare not look directly."

"In the past, when they looked at the emperor, they would look at it with slavishness, but I hope that in the future, when they look at the Taoist Master of Taiping Dao, their eyes will no longer be slavish, but with respect."

"I think human knees, generally speaking, should be worth more. This is a must-have in the process of racial development."

"The path to spiritual practice, the first priority is to cultivate the mind, no matter which path, this is true, and enlightening people's wisdom is to cultivate the mind."

"I said this, do you understand?"

"When that time comes, will anyone still be willing to have someone at the top to enslave them?"

"Thinking about it, it probably won't happen again."

"I have never seen a harmonious and peaceful world, but if I think about it as far as my imagination can create, it should be like this."

The cold wind is blowing into the pavilion from the outside world at the end of the year.

Even the warm tea gradually became a little cooler.

But the words spoken by the Taoist are enough to make the cold wind pass away and the auspicious snow melt.

The gentleness and magnanimity contained in it faintly shocked Zheng Xiu, and he felt that his vision was broadened and he suddenly became enlightened.

His vision only looks at one generation and the current situation.

But the disciple he taught has his sights set on the distant future and the world hundreds or thousands of years from now!

The difference cannot be described bit by bit.

But even if he didn't think about it, when Zheng Xiu heard about it, he couldn't help but think deeply.

"If the world is really like this"

"Don't say who the emperor is, even if you are the Taoist Master of Taiping who holds the power in the world, I'm afraid you will be turned into the sand of history."

The gray-clothed scribe exclaimed, feeling a little pity. However, Ji Qiu just smiled and then waved his hand:

"No need to."

"Come from among all living beings and return to heaven and earth."

"The Taoism I teach you only needs to be with me to see and live in this world for a hundred years, and that is enough."

"As for the rest, let the common people do it themselves."

"After all, I, Zhang Julu, am not an immortal who overlooks the world. I am just a foundation. Being able to create the so-called peace for a hundred years is already the limit."

"After killing the Great Flame Qi, even if I am injured, with my Qi and strength, it is not difficult to survive for a long time!"

"With the law as the basis, we will clear up injustice; with literature as the basis, we will open up the people's wisdom; in the name of teaching, we will impart the knowledge that has been shelved in the past to all the people of the world in different levels."

"Every change that changes the world begins with turmoil and bloodshed."

"There will definitely be people who are unwilling to accept change, but until then"

While the Taoist was talking and laughing, he looked at the howling cold wind outside the pavilion, and spoke softly, with a chill in his voice:

"I will remove them one by one."

"Through this, it will become my great road!"

(The end of the volume should be tomorrow. I have to think carefully about the end of the volume. I will have a drink tomorrow to think about it and write it early to try to sublimate the full text.)
Chapter completed!
