Chapter 988: Bright Moon Heart
Time flies, time flies. The boy who left the birthplace of Goryeo in the East China Sea and came to Chang'an has now grown into a strange man on the great shore. His story was told in Chang'an. The light of the Xuandao in his hand overshadowed the legends in the world.
In fact, even Park Yongyeol himself did not expect that he would suddenly have the idea of wanting to go to sea. I don't know why, when he saw those huge buildings moored on the Wei River, he immediately made up his mind.
The eagle should fly over the sea. He had been trapped in that glorious palace in Chang'an City for too long. For the original promise, he guarded the emperor for more than ten years. Now, he doesn't want to go on with his old life.
Perhaps, this sudden change in his heart occurred from the moment he was born to die. Although he himself did not know how to feel. But he had already unconsciously dominated his heart.
"Master, I want to ask you to fulfill one thing."
Next to the roaring bonfire, Park Yongyeol, who took a deep breath and spoke in a calm tone, seemed to have a small flame jumping in his eyes. Since he entered the Yuan Zhao Sect, he took the initiative to ask for the first time.
"Say it. Whatever it is, I'll say yes. ”
Yuan Zhao had a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of encouragement. As if he had already guessed his thoughts, he patted him on the shoulder and motioned for him to come closer.
"When the little boy returned to the East China Sea, I thought...... Follow back. ”
Park Yongyeol hesitated slightly. Still, he said what he meant. Then, seeing the smile on Yuan Zhao's face, he clapped his hands lightly and said.
"Of course you can! Actually, I asked you to come here to talk about it...... Hehe! ”
Park Yongyeol raised his head in surprise. He knew that Yuan Zhao never joked. Sure enough, then he listened to the other party again.
"Originally, I thought you had been away from the East China Sea for so long that you didn't want to go back. At the beginning, the Xuandao God died at my hands, and over the years, you must have been a little troubled in your heart. That place should be considered your sad place...... Alas! If you still resent me, I wouldn't blame you. ”
Yuan Zhao said these words calmly, as if he was telling someone else's story. The old grievances of the past have long been worth mentioning in his turbulent life. Park Yongyeol had already fallen to the ground and replied in a firm tone.
"Master, please don't say such things! I've never resented you in my heart. Moreover, when the Xuandao God was dying, he specially told me to forget all the past in order to be able to cultivate to a higher realm. All my achievements today are gifts from Master. It was you who led me to a peak that I had never imagined before...... Such kindness, it is difficult to repay in this life! ”
"Xiao Lie, you don't have to say such things. Of course I know what kind of person you are. You have been able to achieve today's achievements because of your own efforts, and you must not be presumptuous...... Well, let's not talk about that. If you want to go back to the East China Sea, of course there is no problem. Your Majesty will definitely agree. However, if I could, I would like to ask you one thing. ”
"Master, please speak! No matter how difficult it is, I will do it. Even if you go to the soup and the fire, you will never give up! ”
"Xiao Lie, to this day, the Han Empire though
Unprecedented achievements have been made. But be prepared for danger in times of peace and dare not slack off. To this end, I have formulated some measures that can maintain long-term peace and stability in this vast territory, and I hope that they will have some effect. Would you like to help me? ”
"Master, please obey all orders!"
Won Zhao, who was promised by Park Yongyeol himself, seems to have let go of those doubts in his heart. He looked at each other honestly, and between the flames and the flames, the loyalty on Park Yongyeol's face could not be doubted. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally spoke.
"In the past dynasties, there have been many sighs of rise and fall. So far, no matter how strong or weak a country is, there has been no better solution for thousands of years. I thought about it for a long time and drew on some experiences and lessons to explore a new path. It's hard to describe the complexity of this, ...... in one word. ”
Over the years, in addition to practicing martial arts, this is the first time Park Yongyeol has heard Yuan Zhao talk to him about this. Perhaps, I had a premonition of something. His heart began to beat violently.
"This is destined to be a journey even more difficult than war. And in order to carry it out smoothly, I need a large number of like-minded people to help, and I need the most loyal executors. Xiao Lie, I want to ...... You're the least likely to disappoint anyone I've chosen, right? ”
"I swear by this sword! If there is a negative trust, you should die under the sword, and you will not be able to live beyond the catastrophe! ”
Park Yongyeol pulled out the short knife, and the light stirred up the blood and illuminated the frenzy in his eyes.
"Good! When you go back to Goryeo, you don't have to come back. Today, as the prime minister of the Han Empire, I pass on the edict of the Son of Heaven to you. Since then, he has been an overseas superintendent and protector for the rest of his life, pacifying the maritime frontiers. All the princely territories of the sea, the envoys who come and go, all the caravan groups, and the sea passages, all have the duty to protect. The coast of the East China Sea is near, and the sunset is far away, all within the scope of your responsibility...... What do you think? ”
In the shocked expressions of everyone near and far, Park Yongyeol fell to the ground again, the Xuandao cracked the stone through the clouds, and the generosity shattered the moonlight.
"Do as you are told! In your lifetime, you should sprinkle the blue sea with blood, and your loyal soul will surround the sky! ”
Before Yuan Zhao said it himself, no one expected that he would give Park Yongyeol so much power! Even some of the ministers who knew about and participated in the formulation of the new policy of the empire did not expect that the Yuan Church would attach so much importance to maritime affairs. There is no doubt that Park Yong-yeol, who has taken on such a heavy responsibility, will be the most powerful person in managing maritime affairs in time. I am afraid that at some point, overseas princes will also be subject to its moderation. And the position of overseas guardian will inevitably become more and more important.
Yuan Zhao, who began to drop the first chess piece, exhaled softly. He spent countless nights in order to select the first candidates. It can be said that it is cautious and cautious, and it is chosen again and again. Because this has a bearing on the success or failure of a new political situation restructuring, there must be no negligence.
Sending envoys to all extraterritorial territories to ensure the absolute control of the central dynasty by powerful means was a measure formulated by Yuan Zhao after learning countless lessons from the history he knew.
The so-called "the way of civil and martial arts, one piece and one relaxation". The same applies to the governance of the world. The human heart is always fickle. Giving only grace and benevolence can win people's hearts. But when a lot of things are imperceptible over the years, but
Unexpected changes often occur. People who are accustomed to obtaining are more likely to develop inertia and dissatisfaction. This leads to unpredictable consequences. Maybe it won't happen anytime soon. But who can guarantee that when it comes out in the future, it will not be a great disaster?
Take precautions. Yuan Zhao had to take these issues into account from the beginning. So as to use their wisdom and superhuman vision to make prevention in advance.
And the establishment of a guardian is only one part of the process. More new policy measures, including political, military, economic, cultural and other aspects, will follow. All-round national political reform is imperative at this best historical juncture, and no force can stop his determination.
"Oh, this matter, don't be in such a hurry. I had already sent someone to build the site of the Guardian Residence in the southern part of Goryeo-gun. When the time comes, it will be your new position...... Hehe! After the Centennial Imperial Ceremony in Chang'an, it's not too late for you to leave. ”
"Everything is under Master's orders!"
"Xiao Lie, you will have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders in the future. The ocean is vast and deep...... Perhaps, in terms of personal life, it is inevitable to pay a lot of sacrifices. Alas! This is something that would have been difficult for you...... If Yunxi knew, he didn't know how he would make a noise! ”
Hearing the joking tone in the mouth of the relaxed Yuan Zhao, Park Yongyeol's face was slightly embarrassed. However, he immediately said solemnly.
"My desire to go to the sea has actually been mentioned to Princess Yunxi. Not only did she not stop her, but she was full of joy and joy. Maybe it's because she's been in the palace since she was a child, and the vast world outside is full of endless imagination for her. I think life at sea is not only for me, but also for her. ”
"That's good! The eagle was supposed to fly in the sea and air. That's where you open your mind. Oh, so let's take the time to let Su Xi go into the palace to discuss and see if I can get the Queen Mother to agree and strive to hold a grand wedding before you leave Chang'an. Let you have lovers and eventually become married! Hehe! ”
Hearing that Won Zhao thought so carefully about even such a small matter in addition to countless major national political events, what else could Park Yongyeol say? He could only be grateful in his heart, and he just bowed his head again.
This night, Yuan Zhao stayed awake all night. The people who should be met and the things that should be entrusted are all done by himself, and the instructions are clear and clear. Because he knew very well that the centennial celebration of the empire was coming in a blink of an eye, and perhaps from tomorrow onwards, he would no longer have time to do these things himself. This grand ceremony is extremely important, carrying forward the past and forging ahead into the future. It is not only a summary of the achievements of the Han Empire in the past hundred years, but also a preview of the upcoming new journey. The glorious annals of history are brilliant for thousands of years. It will definitely write an extremely important page of this chapter!
When the morning dawn and the east is white. The fire was gradually extinguished, and the morning breeze brought a chill. Yuan Zhao rubbed his forehead, feeling a little tired. When he heard footsteps and walked softly behind him, a long robe was already draped over his body. A pair of arms then came from behind his back and tightened the buckle on his chest. In the soft tone, there seemed to be an inexplicable grievance.
"When you are old, you are very thoughtful...... However, they don't care whether I live or die. Hum! ”
