Chapter 13 The power situation, the game between the emperor and his ministers
It has been more than a year since Shen Han came to Wei Dynasty.
But most of my understanding of Wei society as a whole was gained by listening to other people's chats.
The "Shijie Tongzhu" in his hand was Shen Han's first systematic understanding of the ideology of the entire continent.
When you open the first page, you see a hand-drawn map.
The map is divided into three parts, Wei is located in the southwest, Qi is in the north, and Yan is in the southeast.
The fertile lands are all divided by the three kingdoms, but there are also many territories among them that are small border countries.
Outside the main continent, separated by high mountains, the wilderness and dense forests are the territory of the demon clan.
Under such geographical conditions, the three countries have maintained heavy troops all year round to prevent war.
Military power has always been in the hands of generals, so those in power in the court naturally felt uneasy.
A hundred years ago, there was a turmoil and mutiny in the Wei Dynasty.
During that turmoil, the Emperor of Wei used the very foundation of the country to suppress it.
After the turmoil, those in power pondered the reasons.
The mistake in the check and balance strategy was the fundamental reason for the mutiny.
The descendants of several major generals gradually became a community of interests through marriage, and in many situations, they began to have the same goals.
Above the court situation, it looks like there is harmony.
But for the emperor, it would be detrimental to the emperor if his ministers were too friendly with each other.
What emperors and monarchs prefer is for their ministers to have differences and conflicting interests.
It takes me, the emperor, to mediate and control in order to resolve differences.
After the mutiny, the rulers of the Wei Dynasty were very taboo about the marriage of ministers.
Especially the marriage between the outstanding members of the family and the heirs of the family head is even more taboo.
Seeing this, Shen Han finally understood the reason why the royal family granted him and Su Jinyu a marriage.
The Marquis of the Shen family still holds military power and guards one side.
Although the Su family has released military power, they have led troops for many years and have a high prestige in the Northwest Army. It is not an exaggeration to say that they respond to a hundred responses.
Moreover, Su's eldest son and second son have been training in the military all year round.
It is also very possible to take over the military power of the Northwest Army in the future.
If the two families were to get married, how could the royal family not be worried if the heir of the family like Shen Ye got married.
The royal family is quite powerful and granted marriage first.
Give Su Jinyu to the unloved and despised heir of the Shen family.
This move not only caught Shen and Su's family off guard, but also put him in an advantageous position.
Even if the betrothal was eventually called off, it would still take some effort for the Shen and Su families to reunite.
This may be the game between the emperor and his ministers.
It's just that in this game, Shen Han has become the pawn that can be discarded at will.
If he wanted to survive this disaster, Shen Han knew very well that he had to improve himself.
Only when you are strong enough can you be qualified to control your own destiny.
So that they won't be abandoned casually.
Continuing to look back, "Shijie Tongzhu" also has a lot of introduction to the practice of cultivation in the Wei Dynasty.
Cultivation in the world is divided into civil and martial arts. Warriors refine their body and mind to cultivate themselves, while literati refine their luck and change the laws.
As you move up, you are divided into nine levels. If you reach the third level, you can become an immortal.
The second-grade and first-grade strong men are all legendary and hidden immortals.
After "Shijie Tongzhu", many famous people introduced it.
Sword Immortal Li Lingfeng, Wu Kuang Tie Zhan
Shen Han looked back and saw that the old marquis of the Shen family and Shen Qingshan were also recorded on it.
Shen Han had only met this old Marquis of the Shen family once.
Just like the old lady, she still had an indifferent face when she saw herself.
But compared to the old lady, Shen Han saluted him and at least nodded.
It wasn't until he saw Shen Ye's genius grandson, the cold-faced old marquis, that he suddenly became kind.
After the introduction of the celebrities, there was the introduction of the major forces.
The holy land of sword cultivation, Xiaoyao Peak, is naturally also on it.
Xiaoyao Peak is not just one peak, but a group of peaks.
Nowadays, there are seven sword immortals in total, making it a veritable holy land of sword cultivation.
It is also no wonder that Su Jinyu was talked about so much after being accepted as a disciple by Xiaoyao Peak.
Shen Han continued to read back. The further back he went, the more new the contents of "Shijie Tongzhu" were.
In the past ten years, the martial arts of the Wei Dynasty has gradually weakened, but Qi and Yan have begun to become strong and prosperous.
If it weren't for the great writers stationed in the Wei Dynasty, a large part of the Wei territory would have been lost.
Shen Han was not very interested in these contents.
Nowadays, I can't even protect my own safety.
Why talk about helping the Wei Dynasty defend its territory?
After reading Shijietongzhu, Shen Han put it aside.
As long as you understand the general trend of the world and the overall situation of the DPRK, you should understand it.
What we should pay more attention to now is still our own strength.
And how to rely on strength to protect yourself.
His eyes moved to the "Sunset Sword Technique" next to him. This was what he should study now.
Senior Sister Liu also made it clear in her words that if you have excellent swordsmanship talent, you can recommend yourself to enter Xiaoyao Peak.
How to prove that you have excellent swordsmanship talent, this set of "Sunset Sword Art" is probably a test.
Looking closely, a line of small blue characters floated above the sword formula.
[Secrets that are easy to learn but hard to master]
It is easy to learn but difficult to master, so it is no wonder that this set of sword techniques is used to test the talent of sword cultivators.
Shen Han did not extract the entry immediately.
Since it is easy to learn but difficult to master, you can get started by yourself and directly use this secret book to practice and comprehend.
Shen Han did not shy away from practicing the "Sunset Sword Art" at his word.
This sword technique was a gift from Senior Sister Liu Xilan of Xiaoyaofeng. The secret book of this technique was just right, and it would not be a big deal even if outsiders knew about it.
Those in the Shen family dared to bully themselves, but they did not dare to bully Liu Xilan.
Reading through "Sunset Sword Technique", the introductory sword moves are really simple.
As the sun sets, the sword slashes a ray of light from the setting sun.
Shen Han held a branch in his hand and waved it along the path.
Cut off the frost and stop working!
The introduction to "Sunset Sword Technique" was really simple, but soon, Shen Han discovered the problem.
The sword moves used in the Sunset Sword Art are extremely powerful, but they are far less agile than other sword moves.
The sword emphasizes the will, and the will breaks all laws.
But this "Sunset Sword Technique" is different from other sword techniques, emphasizing a steady and domineering one.
On the contrary, it is more like a sword technique, with great opening and closing.
But it is far inferior to the sword technique, which is as majestic and powerful as breaking bamboo.
Even if you master this kind of swordsmanship, it will be difficult to use it in a battle.
No wonder the entry of this sword art is easy to learn but difficult to master. Even though I have started to learn it, I have not understood the essence at all.
It was already noon, and the smell of rice was already wafting from the kitchen in the mansion.
Shen Han, who just needs to rely on his own efforts, has no right to taste it.
I went to the room to get some cooking cakes, mixed them with pickles and bit into them.
Close your eyes and rest your mind at noon to calm your mind.
Before long, he took out the "Sunset Sword Art".
Concentrate your energy and extract!
The original entry "Easy to learn but difficult to master" fell off instantly.
When I opened the book "Sunset Sword Art" again, all the contents on it had changed.
The basic introductory content that was originally easy to understand has become slightly more advanced.
The method of advanced mastery is explained more clearly than before.
There is actually a secret hidden in this "Sunset Sword Art", and it is not an ordinary sword art.
