Wang Yixian got off the carriage and looked up at the majestic Sheng'an Gate Tower.
"Sheng'anmen! Haha, it's still so majestic."
He couldn't help but sigh. Perhaps in his memory, everything about Dali seemed so distant and vague, but when he saw it again, he felt so familiar and kind in his heart.
In the Qiongtian Sea Territory, he, Wang Yixian, could be considered a figure, and Jianxin Island was dominated by him, but he still had not forgotten Dali in his heart.
It is a sense of belonging to hometown.
"Confucian Master Yan Zhen has met the old man!" Yan Zhen stood beside the carriage, with a faint smile on his old face, and bowed his hands.
Wang Yixian looked at him with a glint in his eyes.
Although Wang Yixian is more than fifty years older than Yan Zhen in terms of age, in terms of appearance, Wang Yixian looks younger than Yan Zhen.
"I know you. I have known you fifty years ago. Back then Mr. Mo Gu said that you were the most likely person to become the Master." Wang Yixian said with a smile.
Yan Zhen was slightly startled and said, "Senior, do you know the teacher?"
Mr. Mogu was his teacher, just like Yan Zhen and Wang Shouren. However, Mr. Mogu did not become a master until his death, and all his expectations for the realm of master were placed on Yan Zhen.
It's a pity that Mr. Mogu never saw Yan Zhen become his wife until his death. This should be the biggest regret in Yan Zhen's heart.
If he could have achieved the Master Realm a few years earlier, Mr. Mogu would not have passed away with regrets.
"I know, I often drink with that old guy, but it's a pity that I can't see him now!" Wang Yixian said with some nostalgia.
He likes to make friends, and he has many close friends when he was in Dali, and Mr. Mogu is one of them.
However, almost all of his friends have been buried in the ground now, and everything has changed!
Yan Zhen also fell into memories. He was recalling Mr. Mogu's earnest teachings to him.
Although his achievements and height have now surpassed Mr. Mogu, he still has not forgotten Mr. Mogu's voice, appearance and teachings.
The two fell into silence for a while, and it took a long time before Wang Yixian came back to his senses and asked, "Is your Majesty here?"
Yan Zhen came back to her senses and said: "Oh, Your Majesty is still waiting. Senior, please come quickly!"
The two of them stopped talking nonsense and walked into the imperial city side by side.
In the side hall of Shengtian Palace, Xiao Shunzi asked people to put tea and cakes on the table, and also prepared a set of chessboards. Qin Wei held a book and read it quietly.
This book is written by Wang Shouren and is called "To Conscience". It is Wang Shouren's perception and experience of the mind.
It's cool.
Under normal circumstances, Qin Wei could not read such Confucian classics, but when he looked at the book written by Wang Shouren, he was a little fascinated.
He also quite agrees with some of Wang Shouren's thoughts and insights.
Moreover, this book is also very popular in Dali. Since Wang Shouren completed the book, the Imperial College has printed thousands of copies. At first, the students of the Imperial College did not pay attention to it. After all, Wang Shouren was not well-known outside. Everyone only knew that he was a poet.
Zhen's disciples didn't know that he was already in the master realm.
However, after some curious people read "To Conscience", it immediately caused a wave of excitement in the Imperial College. It was spread by word of mouth. Within a few days, all the 1,000 printed copies were bought by the students of the Imperial College.
However, this was just the beginning. The Imperial College was the cultural and educational center of Dali. "To Conscience" was very popular in the Imperial College and soon spread outside the Imperial College and spread throughout Kyoto. For a time, it could be said that Luoyang was expensive.
The Confucian scholars in Dali were not that pedantic, and had a strong ability to accept new ideas. In addition, Wang Shouren was influenced by Yan Zhen, and "To Conscience" was indeed written well enough, so countless people began to pursue Wang Shouren.
.
Now the craze for "To Conscience" is spreading from Kyoto to the thirteen states of Dali.
It won't be long before Wang Shouren will no longer be an unknown person, but will become a world-famous scholar.
While Qin Wei was reading "To Conscience", Yan Zhen led Wang Yixian to the side hall.
Entering the palace, Wang Yixian saw Qin Wei at a glance.
At this time, Qin Wei was wearing a white gown, and his attire was very ordinary and casual. He did not have the power and nobility that an emperor should have at all, but more like a handsome young man.
Especially when he was concentrating on reading, his focused expression gave him the feeling of being an unparalleled young master in the world.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
Yan Zhen's greeting broke the silence of the side hall and awakened Qin Wei.
Qin Wei raised his head in shock and looked at the two of them.
Then he put down the book in his hand, stood up and said with a smile: "This must be Senior Wang!"
"I have met Your Majesty!" Wang Yixian lowered his hands and saluted with a gentle smile on his face.
What he gave was only a greeting ceremony, but a greeting ceremony.
Although he is also a member of Dali, he has been away from Dali for a long time and is not considered a minister of Dali. Moreover, with his status and strength, he is fully qualified to be on an equal footing with Qin Wei.
In some aspects, his status is even higher than that of the Emperor.
In the final analysis, Dali is just a dynasty in the Linghuang Land. In the past, Wang Yixian's status would definitely be higher than that of Emperor Li.
It's just that Wang Yixian is not a person with high goals, so he takes the initiative to pay tribute to Qin Wei.
Qin Wei didn't care about this. He even thought the old man was pretty good and said with a smile: "Senior, please sit down!"
The two sat down on both sides of the chessboard, Yan Zhen sat next to him, and Xiao Shunzi immediately served the tea.
Wang Yixian raised his head and glanced at the layout of the palace.
“This place hasn’t changed at all!”
"Senior has been here!" Qin Wei asked curiously.
Wang Yixian smiled and said: "Back then, I was invited by His Majesty Shengyuan to come to the imperial city several times."
Qin Wei blinked and didn't know how to answer.
There's something bad about this old guy!
It actually involved Emperor Shengyuan.
Who is Emperor Shengyuan?
That was his grandfather's father, the previous generation Li Emperor.
You are three generations older than me just by saying this, isn't this taking advantage of me?
"I wonder why the old man came back this time?" Qin Wei directly changed the topic and said.
Wang Yixian smiled and said: "Your Majesty should know."
Qin Wei also smiled and said: "Why don't we talk about it with our hands!"
"good!"
Then the two of them played chess, and the conversation was not for the purpose of playing chess, but to deepen their understanding.
Qin Wei wanted to get to know this old man, and Wang Yixian also wanted to see what kind of person Qin Wei, the new Li Emperor, was.
Qin Wei is naturally no stranger to playing chess.
There are few entertainment methods in this world. Playing chess is Qin Wei's favorite way to relieve his boredom. Whenever he has free time, he will find someone to play chess. Li Ru, Yan Zhen, Li Xun, etc. are all his chess friends.
In just a moment, the chessboard was filled with chess pieces.
Qin Wei holds the black stone, occupying almost half of the chessboard.
He will definitely win this round.
Now his chess skills are so good that even Li Ru and Yan Zhen would have a hard time beating him.
"I lost!" Wang Yixian surrendered.
Qin Wei picked up the chess pieces on the chessboard and said with a smile: "It seems that the old man is not good at playing chess!"
"It's true that I'm not good at it. I've really found it difficult to meditate these years!" Wang Yixian said.
Although he is over one hundred and fifty years old, he is a proud man and likes to be active rather than quiet. Playing chess is not suitable for him.
"Where have the old seniors been all these years?" Qin Wei asked.
"Qiongtian Sea Area!"
"What's the Qiongtian Sea like?"
"A vast sea!"
"Oh, are the practitioners there very strong?" Qin Wei asked curiously.
Wang Yixian nodded and said: "It's very strong. Xiantian can only be regarded as ordinary in the Qiongtian Sea Region, and only in the Jiezhao Realm can be regarded as a strong one."
Qin Wei's mind was moved. There was only one strong person in the Jizhao Realm. The peerless strong man must have surpassed the Jizhao Realm. It seems that the water in the Qiongtian Sea is really deep.
"How powerful is Yuehai Island in the Qiongtian Sea?" He asked again.
Wang Yixian smiled brightly, looked at him deeply, and said: "Unconventional forces!"
Qin Wei was stunned and looked at Wang Yixian with some suspicion.
He estimated that the Yuehai Island Dongfang Family was not a powerful force in the Qiongtian Sea, but it was probably not out of the ordinary.
Seeing him like this, Wang Yixian smiled and said: "The Qiongtian Sea Area is very large, and it is strong in the east and weak in the west. Yuehai Island is almost in the westernmost part of the Qiongtian Sea Area. In the west of the Qiongtian Sea Area, Yuehai Island's strength is pretty good, but in
In the entire Qiongtian Sea Area, Yuehai Island does not flow into the current at all."
"The Jianxin Island where I am located is not as good as Yuehai Island, and it is not considered a powerful force."
"There are many truly powerful forces in the Qiongtian Sea, and the most powerful among them is the Temple of All Kings!"
Qin Wei's expression moved slightly, "Ten Thousand Emperors Temple!"
"That's right, the Temple of Ten Thousand Emperors, a temple composed of hundreds of dynasties in the Qiongtian Sea. Compared with the Temple of Ten Thousand Emperors, Yuehai Island is nothing!" Wang Yixian said.
Qin Wei's eyes widened slightly, a temple composed of hundreds of dynasties!
Hundreds of dynasties!
this!
"There are so many dynasties in Qiongtian Sea!" Qin Wei asked in shock.
This was the first time he truly understood the Qiongtian Sea Territory, which shocked him beyond belief.
"Not only that, any dynasty that can join the Holy Land of Ten Thousand Emperors is considered a relatively powerful dynasty, otherwise they are not qualified to join it." Wang Yixian said.
"Are there any conditions?" Qin Wei asked in surprise.
Wang Yixian pondered for a moment and said: "The Temple of Ten Thousand Emperors has a set of evaluation standards for the comprehensive strength of the dynasty. I don't know the specific situation, but they divide the dynasty into four levels. The first three levels can join the Temple of All Emperors.
, the fourth grade cannot."
"After joining the Ten Thousand Emperors Temple, the three levels have different voices. Among them, the first level has six dynasties, and they have great control over the All Emperors Temple. The second level has eighteen dynasties.
There is a certain right to speak in the Temple of All Kings, but no decision-making power. The third-class dynasty only has the right to consult."
"The hierarchy within the Temple of All Kings is distinct. Once you join the Temple, you become an alliance."
In fact, he doesn't know much about the Temple of All Kings, and what he said are all well-known things in the Qiongtian Sea.
Qin Wei was very interested in the Temple of Ten Thousand Emperors.
"Then what should Dali do if she wants to join in?"
"I don't know!" Wang Yixian shook his head and said: "There are more than a dozen dynasties in the west of Qiongtian Sea Region, but there are only three dynasties that are members of the Ten Thousand Emperors Temple. I have almost no contact with them, and I don't know how to join the Ten Thousand Emperors Temple.
Holy place.”
Qin Wei finally understood that although Wang Yixian was a master of the Jizhao Realm and had been in the Qiongtian Sea for more than fifty years, he still had not come into contact with the real core of the Qiongtian Sea.
However, there are hundreds of dynasties in the Qiongtian Sea, and its vastness can be imagined.
A dynasty is not an island. How can it become a dynasty without a large enough territory?
