"But you still want to inherit the throne, don't you?"

When Ming Zhao heard Feng Shanyue's question, he raised his head suddenly, a little surprised: "What did you say?"

"Regardless of whether you were really banished by your father or not, at least from your own heart, you really want to be able to inherit the throne and govern the Great Shang Kingdom in the future, don't you?

Ming Zhao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Senior Sister Feng, you are wrong, that is just my previous wishful thinking." Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info now, I don't dare to think about such a thing at all. ”

"Why?"

"The matter of Luchuan made me understand that my ability is too small, and I can't even solve the affairs of a city, so how can I talk about governing the Great Shang Country?" Ming Zhao looked frustrated, and his words were filled with thick bitterness.

Feng Shanyue frowned, "The matter of Green River is not uncommon in the entire Great Shang Country, right? This is originally a world where witchcraft is prevalent, if you want to rely on your own meager strength to immediately change the entire world, is it simply impossible?"

"But I think what Brother Wen said is right, I can't even handle something like Green River, and I will definitely not be able to deal with it when I face greater difficulties in the future. It's better to recognize the reality as soon as possible, and stop dreaming about those delusional dreams!"

It seems that the matter of Luchuan has indeed dealt him a great blow, Feng Shanyue can't see a big man looking like a broken can, she thought about it, and then asked: "Then why don't you follow Brother Wen's method? With the martial arts of the two of you, it is not impossible to save the lives of several children, right?"

"What about after they are saved? Can I stop them from sending the child to the altar for the second time?" Ming Zhao said with some excitement, "The problem now is that people believe in the wizard too much, and their words are the words of the god king, even if we desperately saved the child at that time, when we are gone, the wizard will say a few words casually, and the common people will obediently send their children to the altar." ”

"It seems that you have understood the crux of the whole thing, so why would you put all the blame on yourself?"

Wen Feichen and Ming Zhao heard this, and looked at Feng Shanyue with some confusion.

"I mean, the fundamental problem with this is that the status of wizards is too high, and that's actually the problem of the whole big business. Feng Shanyue said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Ming, don't blame me for speaking straight, I think your father is the root cause of the whole problem." ”

"My father?"

"Your father is a Shang monarch who rules the entire Great Shang Kingdom, and it is understandable that he wants to borrow the power of wizards to assist him in his rule, but raising the status of wizards too high will make these people arrogant and not satisfied, because greed is human nature. They want to be like the gods, to be admired and admired. Your father's attitude towards them is just what fuels this mentality. ”

"Senior sister, aren't you also a shrine maiden, why would you say such a thing?"

Feng Shanyue nodded, "I am indeed a witch, but it doesn't mean that I like my current state. You asked me earlier which one would I choose between witchcraft and life. Naturally, I would choose life, but most wizards, in order to increase their prestige in the eyes of the people, would definitely choose witchcraft. Once witchcraft takes precedence over life, the people's lives will be miserable!"

Ming Zhao looked at the woman in front of him in shock, the last time she was in Wenjiabao, she talked eloquently in front of several men, and at that time he thought that this was just a little girl who was good at cooking and a little ingenious. When he met in the capital this time, he couldn't think of her as a little girl at all, because her speech and demeanor were too mature, so he had to look at this woman in a different light.

Feng Shanyue saw that he looked stunned and a little embarrassed, she cleared her throat and said, "I am a mountain woman, I don't know etiquette, if I say anything offensive to Shang Jun, please bear with the two senior brothers, don't spread the word!"

"No, I think you're right!" Ming Zhao agreed, "Senior Brother and I have traveled around in the past two years, and I have seen too many things like Green River, and I have always thought that it was because of my own lack of ability, so I couldn't convince the government and the common people not to listen to those wizards, but I never thought about the reason behind this." Senior sister, your words woke me up!"

Wen Feichen saw that Ming Zhao was reinvigorated, and he was also very happy in his heart, "You are a fan of the authorities, in fact, I told you a long time ago not to put the responsibility on yourself, but you didn't listen, but the senior sister said a few words, and you listened!"

Ming Zhao was a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry Senior Brother, I didn't think it through before, so I always doubt my ability, even if you keep reminding me by the side, I can't listen to it." ”

"Now you've figured it out?"

Ming Zhao nodded, "I understand, and I know what to do!"

Feng Shanyue was curious: "What will you do?"

"I'm going to find a way to persuade my father to lower his status as a wizard and not to pay too much attention to witchcraft, so that things like Midorikawa won't happen again in the future. Ming Zhao said briskly.

Feng Shanyue shook her head, this Ming Zhao is really too naïve, is he really Wu Ding? She once again seriously doubted whether she had found the wrong person, but in the records about Wu Ding, he did spend his youth outside the palace, and he did study with a person named Gan Pan. Although Feng Shanyue didn't know Gan Lao's real name, it was most likely that Gan Pan. There are many indications that this Ming Zhao in front of him is indeed Wu Ding, although he does not look like a monarch who rules the world.

Feng Shanyue pursed her lips, secretly determined, and then looked at Ming Zhao and said, "Senior Brother Ming, I don't think your idea will succeed." ”

"How can it be? As long as I tell my father what I have seen in the past few years, he will definitely listen to my advice. ”

"One way, he has been walking for decades, and you suddenly let him take another path, do you think it is feasible? Besides, changing the status of wizards is easy to say, but it is a big thing to do. From the Yin capital to various countries, the wizards have been in high positions all year round, and they have also established a very high prestige in the hearts of the people. If their position is threatened and they incite the people to rebel, do you think the people will listen to them?"

Ming Zhao's originally excited mood stopped instantly, yes, with the status of the wizards in the minds of the people, they want to say a word, it is not impossible for this big merchant country to change the sky.

"However, because they have such high prestige, I think it is even more important to find a way to lower their status!" Ming Zhao said categorically.

Feng Shanyue nodded, "I agree with what you said! But there is a premise for doing this, that is, you must become a merchant monarch!"
