"I..." Mr. Dongyue seemed a little excited, but when he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Xia Shang.
"It is said in the world that Mr. Sir is a saint. But in my opinion, Mr. Sir is also a common man after all. You keep saying that you are willing to give up your life for the sake of the world, but you should know very well in your heart that your death will make the world's scholars become a force to attack the crown prince and keep him.
The status of the world's literati. But can this really make ordinary people live better? Ordinary people can only live in misery in this increasingly fierce battle, but sir, you can preserve your purity for the rest of your life and be remembered by future generations. This is
The human nature of ordinary people, sir, are you right?"
Mr. Dongyue stared at Xia Shang, his expression a little stiff.
"Furthermore, in order to complete your plan, you let your disciple pretend to be crazy and suffer torture. Until now, he alone bears all the blame. Is this also what a saint did? Saying this is not that the descendants have any responsibility for the teacher's actions.
It is human nature to be somewhat dissatisfied, and it is not a serious crime. However, if everything goes according to Mr.'s plan, then the world will truly fall."
"Now that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, how can we allow those warriors to be in power? If a country has been established by force for a long time, the citizens will be martial and arrogant, and it will be difficult for those in power to check and balance. This is why there are deep roots of man-made disasters in today's martial arts world. If you want to eliminate national disasters, the only way
We advocate civilized governance and educate the people. If the people are confident, the world will be stable. If the people are worried, the world will be turbulent. If Li Xin is allowed to be in power, wouldn't it mean that Dahua has returned to the beginning of the founding of the country, when everyone was a soldier?"
"What you said is not unreasonable. Since ancient times, military affairs have flourished in troubled times, and literature has flourished in prosperous times. This is the way of historical rotation. Even if it is caused by historical changes, why bother to intervene with human power? Without Mr. Dongyue's death, a hundred years later,
Civilization can also be promoted, but it will take a little longer, but the process will be slower, there won't be much conflict among the people, and the people will not be affected too much.
However, if manpower is used to intervene in an attempt to shorten the period of alternation between civil and military forces, it will intensify the conflict between all parties in the world, and there will inevitably be conflicts between swordsmen and bloodshed. This is what you want to do to make yourself famous forever, but you want the people of the world to follow your actions.
Suffer. Is this really good?"
Looking at Xia Shang, Mr. Dongyue handed over his hand again: "Everything the young master said is true. I didn't expect that I have been planning for a long time and I am not as smart as the young master. My self-righteous plan turned out to be so clear in the young master's eyes. It seems that I have been planning it for a long time.
He is really old and a bit smart. However, I have no choice but to do it. Now that Li Xin is in power, it is really a hidden danger to the world. Li Xin is a martial artist and has a deep prejudice against literati. The prince has also seen it. He has not yet ascended the throne.
, He is already so tough on the literati. If he ascends the throne, how can the literati in the world have a place to live? If he does not take action at this time, it will be difficult for anyone to shake his position in the future. "
"Sir, are you so afraid of Li Xin?"
"Who in this world is not afraid?"
"But in the eyes of future generations, Li Xin is not a deceitful person who is good at the art of emperors. On the contrary, he is a somewhat paranoid and reckless man. Compared to the second prince Li Xiangyang, he seems to be a little worse."
"Now that Li Xin is so powerful, you actually said..."
"Sir, please listen to me." Xia Shang paused and took a sip of tea. "Now Li Xin has all the advantages. Why does he have to compete with the literati? For any one person, if he wants to control the world, this
At this time, we must adopt a gentle policy to appease the world's literati. Isn't this the easiest way? But at this time, Li Xin used brutal methods against the literati without any concealment, and even did not hesitate to kill you, sir, at this juncture.
What does this mean? It means that Li Xin really does not like literati.
He even said that this dislike could expose him without any reservation, regardless of his own throne. Is this a sign of a man who is good at power? This is a warrior who is motivated by his own ambitions!
Let alone whether such a person can ascend the throne safely, even if he ascends the throne, can he really have the ability to fight against the entire gentry? Therefore, the descendants feel that Mr. Dongyue is too worried. Although Li Xin is
He has great power, but he is not a person who can cause harm to the world."
After finishing speaking, Mr. Dongyue thought for a long time and said silently: "Young master's insights are really extraordinary. Even I have never thought about this. But it doesn't sound unreasonable."
Xia Shang smiled: "So, I decided to save my husband. I hope that after I tell him everything, I can let him think about it again. Is it worth risking my life to deal with such a person? I only have one life, so I have to think clearly."
There is a saying in Buddhism: 'Life in this world, except life and death, are all trivial matters'."
Mr. Dongyue was silent for a long time and sighed lightly: "Hey, yes! There is really no one in this world who is not afraid of death. Even me, when it comes to the real moment of life and death, there is still a little hesitation. In any case, today it all depends on the young master.
, I am lucky enough to survive. If you ever need me in the future, young master, just ask."
"To be honest, sir, the younger generation wants to use his influence to become famous. I hope you can recommend one or two."
Mr. Dongyue was slightly surprised, but did not ask any more questions: "For such a trivial matter, I will naturally do a favor. Today is a good opportunity. The young master changed that sentence with his wisdom, and many people in the world can't match it. But at the moment
Looking down, everyone in the world thinks that what the young master said is true, but they didn’t expect the young master’s talent. So they can only wait for the next opportunity.”
"It doesn't matter."
As soon as Xia Shang finished speaking, someone suddenly called out at the door: "Mr. Dongyue, the student is in a hurry and needs to see you. Please open the door quickly."
The voice was very urgent, and he looked really anxious.
Xia Shang looked at Mr. Dongyue, and Mr. Dongyue nodded towards Xia Shang, indicating that he could open the door.
Xia Shang opened the door, and a man rushed in from the outside.
It turned out to be the middle-aged man named Ge Yang.
"Sir..." Ge Yang said hurriedly.
"Who are you?" Mr. Dongyue was a little confused.
"Student..." Ge Yang hesitated and looked at Xia Shang.
Xia Shang understood and said to Mr. Dongyue, "Sir, I will leave first."
After that, Xia Shang walked out of the door and closed the door.
I thought that as long as Mr. Dongyue promised to help him become famous, everything would go back to his original plan. This would be a good thing.
Just as he was thinking about it, Xia Shang suddenly felt that something was wrong. He recalled the conversation between Ge Yang and himself, as well as those casual expressions, and then thought of Ge Yang's haste after entering the room just now, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
"not good!"
Xia Shang secretly screamed and pushed open the door that had just been closed.
It only took a few seconds, but the sight that appeared in front of Xia Shang made Xia Shang stunned for a moment.
Mr. Dongyue, who was sitting upright just now, is now... lying quietly on the ground, motionless... (To be continued)
