Chapter 240: The Dilemma of Loyalty and Righteousness from Ancient Times

Chapter 240: Since ancient times, the dilemma of loyalty and righteousness has been fully resolved

The progress of science has made human beings aware of the existence of atoms in the eyes of physics.

At the same time, the atom was also first philosophically defined as an abstract concept with ontological significance.

This concept is equivalent to the fact that everything in physics can be made up of atoms.

This philosophical concept is somewhat similar to the Tao of Chinese philosophy.

The Tao constitutes everything in the world, and whatever the final end, it is the Tao.

The Tao was slowly digitized by Fu Xi, King Wen, Lao Tzu and others, trying to speculate on the Dao by deduction, so that various philosophical arguments and schools of thought emerged.

Whether the Tao can be deduced or not is still unknown, because if human beings or the earth are digitized, then it is equivalent to the whole world being governed and set by the Tao like a program, and no one or anything will go beyond the setting of the whole Dao.

According to this logic, as long as someone's ability to deduce is close to the Tao, it is possible to deduce the future.

But in atomology, there is a theory called, the unmeasurable of atoms.

That is, when humans or the outside world observe and analyze the atoms, the atoms have already changed, and they are no longer in the state when humans want to deduce, so that theoretically, human beings will never be able to find out how the atoms operate and structure.

In the same way, the Tao should be like this, when humans try to observe it, in fact, the Tao has already gone ahead of human beings and arranged everything in advance.

The Book of Changes says, "The main road changes, and each is life." ”

But if someone really deduces that the fate of heaven has turned, they always want to do something against the sky, which is the curiosity and resistance of human beings.

Human nature seems to be inherently rebellious.

Wang Xu is also like this.

When he first crossed here, his desire to survive left him thinking only about how to survive and find his way back.

But as he spent more time here, his life became more stable, and he became more and more integrated with the whole strange world, his thoughts changed every day.

It is commonly known that when people are idle, they are prone to thinking.

Wang Xu's character is a person who is at ease with what he encounters, in addition to his interest in history and archaeology, his only goal in life is to solve the mystery of his parents, which is why he appears here.

But Wang Xu knows that he is now deeply involved in the historical process, and to a certain extent, it should be regarded as affecting the trajectory of history, which makes him think of a very bad thing.

Maternal grandmother paradox

This made Wang Xu have self-doubts, especially after learning about the covenant of the Mo Alliance and the restoration plan of the descendants of Yin Shang, which made him a little conflicted, whether he should meddle in this matter.

Because from the history he knows, the final beneficiary is Liu Bang.

But judging from what he has now, from the perspective of the Mo family and the remnants of the major vassal states, the situation is not clear, because there are no names of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu in this plan.

This made Wang Xu a little hesitant whether to meddle in history.

More worried about the outcome after meddling.

I don't know if it's too sensitive, Wang Xu always feels that there is a pair of invisible hands pushing him to a certain position, which makes him very distressed.

So much so that one night was cranky.

Insomnia.

Wang Xu, who had not slept all night, seemed to be a little sluggish, drinking porridge and millet porridge boiled by the gods and slaves.

Wang Ben still knows how to be hospitable, and the etiquette is very thorough, and he sent Wang Xu the best corn in the barracks, of course, it may also be moved out of the palace of King Yan.

I hadn't eaten such good food for more than a year, and my lack of energy made Wang Xu feel the urge to cry for a while.

"You haven't slept all night?" Wang Xu drank the warm millet porridge, sniffed and looked at Tu Tan who was kneeling at the door to ask for peace.

Tu Tan's face was pale, his lips were blue, the dark circles under his eyes were almost to the apple muscles, and his eyes were still a little sluggish, not only did he not sleep all night, but he was probably still hungover.

"The Emperor is sleeping here?" Tu Tan was stunned when he heard this, and asked a little nervously.

At this time, seeing that his emotional intelligence was revealed, Yu Chun, a fool, saw the haggard Wang Xu in the morning and didn't say anything, and Tu Tan suddenly seized the opportunity to pat himself on the back.

"It's okay, maybe the gore and fireworks here are too strong." Wang Xu waved his hand and looked at Tu Tan, "What about you?" Drunk a night of wine? ”

Tu Tan smiled and shrunk his shoulders, "Don't worry, the emperor will definitely not affect today's itinerary." ”

"Let's get up and eat together, today, I'm too lazy to move." Wang Xu smiled.

Tu Tan was not polite, snatched the basin in the hand of Yu Chun, who was squatting at the door, ignored his resentful gaze, sat down until Wang Xu started, and reported to Wang Xu that there was still a battlefield in the north of Liaoyang City while eating.

Wang Xu ate two large bowls of rice porridge, wiped his mouth, and looked at Tu Tan, who drank porridge like water, "I didn't let you drink porridge vigorously, I know that you can't eat enough." ”

Tu Tan's movements froze, he put down the basin with a smile, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve, "Minister, there is something I want to tell the emperor." ”

"Say it." Wang Xu got up and moved his body, ready to put on his armor for a while.

Tu Tan looked at Yu Chun, who was holding the pot and licking at the door, and cleared his throat, "The emperor still remembers the reckless man who collided with the holy car yesterday." ”

"Of course." Wang Xu smiled and nodded, "He's your friend." ”

"He is Jing Ke." Tu Tan's voice was a little hoarse.

Wang Xu raised his eyebrows slightly, although he had already guessed, he was still a little surprised, "He's not dead?" ”

"He is the guard of the King of Qin." Tu Tan's smile was dry.

Wang Xu looked at Tu Tan's expression and chuckled, "It's really unexpected. ”

Tu Tan was also observing Wang Xu's expression, and seeing Wang Xu's expression of no surprise in his chest, his heart trembled, and he bit the tip of his tongue and was about to speak again, but he heard Wang Xu say.

"Since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been in a dilemma, since the two of you are close friends, then don't stick to the matter of deception, after all, who doesn't have a secret that can't be easily revealed?" Wang Xu smiled warmly, and looked at Tu Tan meaningfully, "As long as you have a clear conscience and don't have the intention of betrayal or plotting, then no one has the right to ask about this secret, and you don't have to tell it honestly, people in this world are separated from each other, but as long as your heart is not black." ”

Tu Tan's heart was inexplicably sour.

"But I'm really a little curious, why did Yan Dan have to assassinate Qin, Yan Dan shouldn't be a stupid person, how could he make such a decision? Regardless of the success or failure of the assassination of Qin, the Yan State will be devastated, and the pace of the Qin State annexing the world may not stop. Wang Xu asked with a smile.

"Jing Ke only said that it involved the grievances of the Yan royal family, among which Ju Wu was also a traitor in Qin, instigating Yan Dan to assassinate and trapping Yan Guo in an unrighteous place." Tu Tan coughed lightly, "But the minister thinks that there may be more reasons than this, Yan Dan is not only not stupid, but also quite virtuous, and he was known as King Zhao's legacy in Yan back then." ”

"It's all a secret." Wang Xu sighed lightly, "But at least it seems that this reason is more important and interesting to Yan Dan than the entire Yan Kingdom combined." ”

"Jing Ke said before that Yan Dan and King Qin met when they were both protons in Zhao State, and the two seemed to be friends because of the same situation, and then after Qin destroyed Zhao, Yan Dan was sent to Qin State as a proton, and seemed to be unhappy with King Qin, and when he fled back from Xianyang, he also cursed and scolded King Qin in the palace, swore to punish King Qin, and swore not to be a man." Tu Tan licked his lips and began to say hexagrams.

"It seems that I have been greatly wronged." Wang Xu blinked, made up his mind and chuckled, "But this kind of thing, except for the person concerned, no one should be able to know, where did you hear about it from Jing Ke, and when it came to me, it may also be a tiger for three people." ”

Tu Tan's expression froze.

"But in the future, you can indeed find Qin Zheng to understand the story behind it, and leave a little history of faith for future generations, so as not to joke about various versions and make it an unsolved case for the ages." Wang Xu chuckled and said, "So this time Jing Ke came back, it was King Qin who found out about us?" ”

Tu Tan's eyes twitched and nodded.

"Then you might as well tell him, if you have anything you want to ask, you can come and ask directly, of course, don't send your subordinates easily, you will be sent back by me with a knife, if there is any problem, I can communicate with King Qin." Wang Xu chuckled and said, "As for the messenger, I think Wang Li is fine. ”
