Chapter 7003: Ending the Past and Afterlife

The ownership of the Taiping Yang Order depends on how much Li Mi trusts Zuo Di.

Because Zuo Di did not hide Li Mi, in addition to this Taiping Yang Order, he also found the Taiping Yin Order hidden by Zhang Jiao and Zhou Yu!

In other words, if this Yang Decree is also handed over to him, then Zuo Di will have the complete Taiping Decree that commands the heroes of the world!

Li Mi also knew the secret of the Taiping Order at this time, this Taiping Order is actually like pushing back pictures, all the non-governmental organizations in this world, whether they are sects or gangs, can always find their origin from the Taiping Order!

Tracing back to the source is the inherent thinking of the Chinese nation, especially the people, who always want to find the roots, which is also the fundamental reason for the clan culture.

In later generations, organizations such as the Hongmen Youth Gang can actually trace back to their past and present lives, and as for the common people, they will always trace the origin of their surnames and join the big family of the surname clan.

People say that there are three major problems in philosophy: who I am, where I came from, and where I am going.

Westerners pay more attention to the question of "who am I", because they emphasize self and pursue personal rights and values, while Chinese seem to care more about where I come from, so we are always looking back at how brilliant our ancestors used to be, and often talk about how our ancestors were.

The reason why these cultural phenomena are mentioned is to explain why the Taiping Order can command the world, and Li Mi also thinks about this question clearly.

Many metaphysical scholars will associate the events of later generations with ancient prophecies, especially the Tui Bei Tu and the Song of Baked Cakes, etc., and they can always find corresponding proverbs in these prophecy books.

And the Taiping Order is also such a principle, as the seal of ten thousand seals, due to the ingenious design, whether it is the army or the sect gang, can always find their own roots from the Taiping Order.

In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, social contradictions began to intensify, and civil forces continued to rise, such as Wenxiang Sect and Qingyang Sect, etc., dozens of folk forces all bear the imprint of the White Lotus Sect, although they were founded independently, and they have their own claims from the beginning, but they will eventually be regarded as a branch of the White Lotus Sect.

It's such a simple truth, even the White Lotus Sect can do this, let alone the Taiping Order.

Therefore, it is just two small pieces of the Taiping Order, but it embodies the crystallization of the wisdom of the predecessors, and the thinking of the Chinese nation is thoroughly pondered and made good use, so that the Taiping Order has great value!

If Xiang Mu and Shi Chongsheng can see it, I am afraid that they will worship it, because this is simply the highest level of making weapons, and the wisdom of the people who designed and manufactured the Taiping Order should be so transcendent!

It is precisely because he faces up to the value of the Taiping Order that Li Mi has to consider this issue.

How should the Taiping Order be handled? Can he trust Zuo Di and hand over the Taiping Order to him?

Li Mi is now unable to separate from the court, he has too many titles and too many official positions, and Zhu Yijun even handed over the defense of the capital and the palace ban to Li Mi.

If Li Mi gets the Taiping Order, he can't hide it from Zhu Yijun, either the Taiping Order will be handed over, or the bond of trust that he and Zhu Yijun have worked so hard to establish will be severed and shattered by the Taiping Order again.

But Zuo Di is a Jianghu person after all, and handing over the Taiping Order to Zuo Di is equivalent to leaving the Taiping Order in the people, which forms a hidden force against the imperial court, and it is also a very huge force!

Maybe Zuo Di will not rebel, maybe not for the time being, but Zuo Di will always die one day, and the Taiping Order will stay in the people for a day, which will be a hidden danger and threat to the imperial court.

As for destroying this Taiping Order, Li Mi would never think about it.

Not to mention how powerful the Taiping Order is, its own cultural value is immeasurable.

What's more, Li Mi also hopes to retain the power of opposition, without the power of opposition, the country will not struggle forward, no matter what dynasty or generation, the voice and strength of opposition are needed to spur them forward.

This is a confusing but shocking thing, it is clearly just two seals, it is clearly just a dead thing, but the material is a little more expensive, but it is because of the engraving on it, and it is full of incomparable power!

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the pinnacle of Chinese civilization, and Li Mi finally understood why the ancients wanted to pursue things like the jade seal of the country.

People say that the Chinese nation is a nation without faith, but this statement is really very wrong, because we are always looking for a national belonging, and only in this way can we not lose ourselves.

The recognition and inheritance of clan culture is also one of our beliefs, and Chinese do not have no faith, but there are too many things to believe.

Many people think that the Chinese are not as fierce as other ethnic groups, and even seem cowardly, because you don't know yourself at all, and you don't understand this nation.

China has thousands of years of history, but there is no religion with great influence in the world, although Taoism is a local sect, but its influence is not as great as that of the three major religions.

Therefore, many people mistakenly think that Chinese have no faith, even Taoism and so on, are not religious.

But it should be known that the Chinese believe in many gods, even weasels and foxes.

In the final analysis, the reason why we believe in these things is to hope for shelter or protection, which is the most pragmatic side of the Chinese.

The reason why we believe in these things is because we want to get the benefits that come with them, even if the benefits are just a hope, just a ritual to reassure ourselves.

This is the thinking of the Chinese, we will do whatever it takes, pursue what is beneficial to ourselves, and ultimately survive.

Some people say that the national character of the Japanese is chrysanthemums and swords, offering chrysanthemums to the strong, lifting up the weak*, getting close to the strong, learning the skills of the strong, and then defeating the strong.

But the thinking of the Chinese is that maybe I will not learn from you, or even think that your ancestors are not as beautiful as my ancestors, but gradually you will find that your food, clothing, shelter and transportation, all the things that depend on survival, will be branded with China!

The existence of the Taiping Order is to brand these forces, and the Chinese are also willing to accept all kinds of stigma.

When you figure this out, you can truly realize how powerful these two small Taiping Orders are!

Li Mi has reluctance and concerns in his heart, and he has more weight, but in the end, he still has to make a decision.

He looked at Zuo Di, then at Zhao Sima, and then said to the two: "You need to answer my three questions." ”

Zuo Di also knew that it was impossible for him to leave with the Taiping Order without making a sound, and he didn't plan to do so, otherwise he wouldn't have sent the Taiping Order to Li Mi.

So he answered these three questions very sincerely, and after listening to the answers, Li Mi finally handed over the Taiping Order to Zuo Di and Zhao Sima.

As for what these three questions were, no one knew anything except Li Mi and the others.

Zuo Di and Zhao Sima, as well as the three of Youli, quickly gathered the thirty-nine ghost soldiers and left Xuzhou.

They are like a torrential rain at this time, which comes and goes quickly, like the rain on the ground, looking at an ocean, but eventually it will flow in all directions, seep into the ground, and disappear without a trace.

No one can find them, but they are in the clouds overhead, in the earth under their feet, hidden in wells, rushing in rivers, silent in lakes, like streams, trickling, warming mountains and forests, or roaring and rushing like great rivers, destroying everything, and like the sea, encompassing all.

The Qingyang Sect was suppressed, Zheng Guifei and Zhu Changxun were captured, and without a leader, the civil uprisings in various places would naturally gradually subside, and there was nothing to worry about.

Li Mi finally took Concubine Zheng and Zhu Changxun back to the capital, and it was only more than two months before he set off.

These two people are too sensitive, and Li Mi didn't stir up the people, let alone make a big splash, just quietly set off and came back quietly, although it was a peaceful return, but all the welcome ceremonies were simple, and there wasn't even much news to spread out.

Li Mi was very reluctant to send the two into the palace, but as soon as he returned to the capital, Zhu Yijun sent someone over and picked up Zheng Guifei and Zhu Changxun.

I haven't seen her for two or three months, Li Xuanfei can already stare at people, she has big innocent eyes, and her eyes have never left Li Mi.

Li Mi hugged this daughter, and suddenly felt that everything was not important, and felt that everything was important, and felt that some things were not as important as imagined.

Just as he said, if it is true love, then everything can be forgiven, he suddenly understood Zhu Yijun.

Three days later, someone came to the palace and sent back Li Mi's cigarette stick, with a sachet attached, and after opening it, there was the remaining half of the velvet.

Li Mi took these two things, and after all, he sighed lightly and stopped entering the palace to inquire.

He didn't know what the consequences of Concubine Zheng and Zhu Changxun would be, and he didn't want to know, and there was no news from the palace, as if he had never brought these two back.

Heavenly Master Zhang Guoxiang came over to ask Li Mi about the whereabouts of the Taiping Order, but Li Mi had already had a way to deal with it, and the matter was over.

The rainstorm of the thirty-ninth year of Wanli finally passed, as if the entire Ming Dynasty had quieted down.

Zhu Yijun's body gradually improved, although he was addicted to alchemy and taking medicine, even if he was suspected of drinking to quench his thirst, he got better in the end.

At the end of the year, Zhu Yijun made a major decision, he wanted to canonize Concubine Wang Gong as the imperial concubine.

Li Mi was not familiar with history, otherwise he should have known that this decision was actually five years late, as early as a year or two after the birth of the emperor's eldest grandson Zhu Youxiao, Concubine Wang Gong should have been canonized as the imperial concubine.

But now it is the thirty-ninth year of Wanli, when Li Mi finally arrested Zheng Guifei and Zhu Changxun, and when Zhu Yijun finally solved this problem completely.

In any case, this is a good thing, for Zhu Changluo, for Concubine Wang Gong, for the inner palace, for the imperial court, and for the entire Ming Dynasty, it is a good thing.

However, such a good thing is more like Zhu Yijun's compensation to Concubine Wang Gong, and once a person remembers to make up for the past, it more or less means that there is some parting.

In the autumn of the fortieth year of Wanli, Zhu Yijun finally summoned Li Mi into the palace, and Li Mi also knew that he was still coming.
