Chapter 722 From now on, I will never be a villain again
"I was just reading out of boredom." Yan seemed a little shy and put the book down.
"Aunt Xue sent it to you?" Yan usually doesn't have any hobbies, and because he has lost all his past memories, he can't even pick it up to practice.
Although he has the instinctive ability to protect himself when encountering danger, it is unlikely that he would practice martial arts if he has nothing to do.
In fact, Yan himself knew that people in this courtyard were always a little alienated from him, so over time, he became unwilling to associate with others.
In fact, he is not a very cold-hearted person, he just doesn't want to cause trouble to everyone.
Seeing him nodding, Feng Jiuxiao asked: "So, after watching it for so long, do you have any insights?"
"I don't dare." Yan could still relax in front of Feng Jiu. He was silent for a while and then said: "I don't know who wrote this book, but there are some opinions that I personally don't agree with."
"For example?" In fact, Xue Gu didn't do much research on the way of governing the country, and the books she found for Yan were just to find some entertainment for him.
I'm afraid, Xue Gu herself doesn't even know what is written in this book.
Xue Gu is actually very busy and doesn't have much time to read any books.
"For example," Yan thought for a while and then said: "The book says that in order for the country to be peaceful and the people to be safe, the most important thing is to open up new territories and expand the territory. The person who wrote it believes that only when the territory is vast can the country be rich, and the weak will only be bullied."
"Don't you think so?" Feng Jiu was a little surprised. Isn't this what Tuoba Keyan thought at the beginning?
If it wasn't like that, why had Tuoba Keyan been conquering east and west all these years just to expand Yuhe's territory?
But why do you think this idea is wrong now?
"Expanding the territory can indeed make the country stronger and protect it from foreign invasion. However, if everything goes too far, it is too late. If we blindly expand the territory and ignore the development of people's livelihood, this country will not be able to go far in the long run."
Yan picked up the book, turned the pages again, and then said: "The book said that the weak will be bullied. I naturally agree with this statement, but a small country does not mean weak. Some small tribes are actually very strong.
of."
"The most important thing is the support of the people. To win the support of the people, you must first make the people truly wealthy. And if there are years of war, even if your territory is infinitely expanded, the logistics will not have such great power to truly develop the territory. This will become a problem.
A senseless robbery..."
Unknowingly, the tea in Fengjiu's cup was dry. When she poured another cup, she drank it all in one gulp.
She didn't know how long she had been listening, but she suddenly realized that her knowledge was still very poor, especially in terms of governing the country. She understood many principles, but when it came to the real details, she might not be able to recognize them clearly.
Yan is really a treasured man. If he hadn't heard about it with his own ears, Feng Jiu would never have imagined that he actually had so many principles of governing the country in his heart.
The most important thing is that his starting point is for the people and the common people.
But why was Tuoba Keyan such a warlike leader back then? Why was there such a huge difference between what he thought and what he did? Could it be that what happened to his mother and concubine back then made him change his temperament?
?
Now Yan has lost those memories and forgotten the pain of losing his mother. His original intention has returned and he has become a benevolent person.
Life is really difficult to change.
"Did I say something wrong?" Yan suddenly listened and stared at her lowered eyes.
Feng Jiu raised her eyes, met his gaze, and shook her head.
"I went over...
In fact, Yan has always had a premonition, but he has never been willing to face it.
He pursed his lower lip before continuing: "In the past, was I a bad person?"
"What if so?" Feng Jiu asked without answering.
Yan Silence, if so, where will he go?
"What if you were really a bad person at the beginning and now you know it?"
Feng Jiu's questioning was like a heavy hammer hitting Yan Xin.
His breathing became a little heavier, and his fingers gradually tightened. If he had really hurt countless people in the past and was a very evil person, what should he do?
Feng Jiu didn't say anything, she just picked up the cup and tasted the tea in the cup, giving him time to think.
I don't know how long it took, but Yan said calmly: "If there is still a chance, I am willing to repay the debt I owe."
"Who among all living beings can say that they have never made a mistake?" The tea was already cold, and Feng Jiu did not continue to drink it. She just put the cup down and looked at the tea that gradually calmed down.
Even saints make mistakes, let alone a person who suffered a terrible blow in childhood?
"If you are wrong, you are wrong. Why bother thinking about the past? What we want to look at is the present and the future. Even if you were really a bad person in the past, as long as you treat people sincerely with your original intentions from today on, isn't it the same as what you did at the beginning?
A way to atone for those crimes?”
Yan unknowingly clenched the book in his hand. Feng Jiu said that he might have been a very evil person in the past.
But as she said, the past is the past, so what's the use of worrying about it now?
"How do you feel now?" Feng Jiu changed the subject.
In fact, everyone understands some things and some truths, but it is not really possible to understand them. It still takes time to consider them.
"There's nothing wrong with me, don't worry." Yan subconsciously looked out the window. The night of the full moon was coming soon. Fengjiu was worried. In fact, he himself was worried too.
The bone-eroding pain caused by poison poisoning is not something that ordinary people can easily withstand. It is indeed not easy to survive every month.
"What about you?" He asked, staring at Feng Jiu's face.
"Me?" Feng Jiu wanted to laugh, but her smile was a little bitter.
The poison in his body was transferred to him by Xue Gu in order to save her. Yan still doesn't know about this, but he actually cares about her.
Yes, who can say that they have never made mistakes?
Her poison was transferred to Yan. For Yan, wouldn't it be a heinous crime?
Even if Xue Gu did it, she was still in a coma and didn't know it, but he was bearing the pain for her after all.
"I'm fine. My symptoms are much milder than yours. What could be the problem?"
Feng Jiu stood up, took another look at the book that Yan had placed on the coffee table, and said seriously: "Don't worry, I will definitely think of a way to relieve your pain soon."
Yan didn't say anything and sent her out personally.
When Feng Jiu was leaving, he suddenly took two steps after her and whispered: "Don't worry, I... will definitely not be a bad person again in the future."
Feng Jiu was stunned for a moment and turned around to meet his gaze. She seemed to have a lot to say, but in the end she just nodded and said lightly: "Okay."
