Chapter 4 Three Questions and Three Answers

As soon as the order was given, the guards immediately retreated to both sides and gave way to the main road. The young man clasped his fists and saluted: "Thank you, there will be a period later!" The young man lifted the iron spear, but he didn't see how to move, so he heard the long roar of the flaming tiger sitting down, and it galloped away in the direction of the imperial city like a flame, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The sergeants shook their heads and smiled bitterly, if this young man arrived at the gate of the imperial city, it was estimated that it would be like this.

In the 116th year of the Tianli calendar, it is another year of shock, the Great Yan Imperial City, the gate of the palace, today is particularly lively, just because a young man not far away, although he did not make any out-of-the-ordinary moves, but he is holding a hot iron spear, sitting on a strong flaming tiger, it is as dazzling as a bonfire in the dark night, how can there be no reason not to attract attention? A group of courtiers were waiting for the palace gate to open, and entered the court to face the king, seeing such a strange young man, it caused a lot of sensation, and the voices of discussion in the crowd were endless. When the gate of the palace was about to open, the young man suddenly said: "I studied under Mr. Dongfang, and I have achieved a small success, and today I am here to meet the Yan Emperor and discuss important matters, and I ask you to pass it on my behalf." The voice didn't feel loud, but everyone present heard it really well, this young man's tone was not big, and he actually opened his mouth to see Emperor Yan. How can the king of a country be seen when he sees it? The forbidden guards of the palace, as long as the boy did not cross their defensive line, it was naturally difficult to drive away, and in the same way, he would not answer the boy's words. And the courtiers are talking to each other, but no one takes the initiative to talk, after all, such an absurd thing, it is better not to take the initiative to participate, the so-called more things are better than less things. As soon as the palace door opened, everyone went in in an orderly manner.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the young man was still sitting on the back of the tiger, as steady as a bell. At this time, above the Great Yan Dynasty, all kinds of daily affairs have been basically resolved. Emperor Yan looked out of the court, only to see that the sky was still gloomy, the dark clouds were not very thick, and it was not raining, but the spring thunder had been ringing for more than an hour, and there was still no sign of stopping, which was very strange. Then he asked the ministers, what is the meaning of this celestial phenomenon? But what strange things are happening? In the end, it was the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, who was also the second brother of Emperor Yan, who told Emperor Yan that before going to court today, he saw a strange young man outside the palace gate, holding a Yantie spear, and sitting down was actually a flaming tiger, and he also threatened to meet Emperor Yan and discuss important matters together. Although it is a strange thing, it is not related to this thunder.

When Emperor Yan heard this, he was extremely curious, he must meet this strange young man, and someone immediately went to announce that this young man had come to the court. Entering the court, the young man bowed and saluted and greeted Emperor Yan. immediately aroused the reprimand of a group of courtiers, who scolded him for not bowing down when he saw the emperor. The young man was neither humble nor arrogant, and looked directly at Emperor Yan, causing a commotion again. But Emperor Yan didn't care too much about this young man's behavior, but felt that it was commendable. He sat on the emperor and realized that it was too difficult to have a person who could get along with him normally, since he ascended the throne, everyone was respectful to him, more in awe, and without the previous heart-to-heart, speak freely, even his own brothers are like this, really feel that the height is unbearable. Now there is such a strange boy, but he likes it.

Emperor Yan asked, everyone knelt down when they saw the emperor, why didn't you kneel? The boy replied, "The boy stands between heaven and earth, and kneels to heaven and earth to his parents, not to others." Moreover, he came to meet Emperor Yan before, in order to discuss major matters and be equal, not to bow down to the ministers, so he did not kneel.

Emperor Yan asked again, what are you discussing? The boy replied, unify Kyushu, and level the world.

Emperor Yan asked, how to level the world? The young man replied that the rule of the world should be to convince people with virtue, and in the troubled times, only strong soldiers can determine the world. There are five things in the use of soldiers, which are called: Tao, heaven, earth, general, and law. The Tao, that is, what the king wants, is the desire of the people, the monarch and the minister are of the same heart, and all the people return to their hearts; Heaven, that is, conform to the time of the day, and act in response to the sky; land, that is, to occupy the geographical advantage, take advantage of the situation and fight; General, that is, wise and brave, can recruit good generals; Law, that is, the national law and military law are strict, and the law is followed, and the order is prohibited. If Da Yan can rely on these five things, how can he not win the battle? Why can't you unify Kyushu?

"Good, good, good!" After listening to the young man's three answers, Emperor Yan got up and called three good words in a row. When the officials heard this, they were all shocked, although this young man's behavior was a little impolite, but the exit was shocking and reasonable, it was simply breathtaking, and it had to be impressive.

The young man continued to say that he had heard that Emperor Yan loved the people and governed the country in a Taoist way, so he was willing to discuss with Emperor Yan about the evaluation of the world. I learned from the world's masters, a small success, can be a good general, can govern the army, based on the geographical advantage, should be the time, so Mao Sui recommended himself, borrowed troops from the Yan Emperor, and leveled the world. I level the world, rule the world, each holds its own strengths, and each does its best. On the day of the unification of Kyushu, when I returned, the so-called flying birds, good bows hidden, what I wanted, traveled in Kyushu, and enjoyed leisure.

The young man asked, do you want to dominate Kyushu? Emperor Yan replied, he would like to do it all his life.

The young man asked again, can you love the people like a son? Emperor Yan replied, the foundation of the country is also.

The young man asked three times, can you believe me? Emperor Yan replied, letter, there is a way to say. If you don't believe it, you don't see it.

The young man replied with a smile, Emperor Yan is really a hero, that is, he wants to see my truth, and it is as you wish. I have heard that Qiao Zhi, the commander of the Great Yan Praetorian Guard, has martial arts in the world, and I am willing to learn from him. The ministers were restless again, and the little boy actually spoke wildly, challenging the commander of the Praetorian Guard, which was simply arrogant. Commander Qiao is in his thirties, in the prime of life, and has been famous for many years, not to mention in the Great Yan Dynasty, even in Kyushu in this world, he is also a famous master, a teenager, even if he starts practicing martial arts from his mother's womb, it is unattainable for him.

However, today's Yanhuang seems to be particularly good at talking, far less majestic than in the past, but like an elder, he values this young man very much, and he agreed to the young man's proposal, saying that it is the right to let everyone watch the wonders today, and open their eyes, and it is an interesting thing to win or lose. Emperor Yan's order, Commander Qiao should be the commander, but the commander is also quite curious about this young man, and he doesn't have much nostalgia for a little boy to challenge himself and use himself as a touchstone, just want to see if this young man can be as he says and has the talent to calm the world. can be so calm in and out of the court at such an age, and he is quick to think and talk as usual, he is really a character. The reason why Commander Qiao was not annoyed was that there was a very important point, that is, the moment Commander Qiao heard that the young man was going to challenge him, he instantly felt a feeling of being surrounded by strong enemies, which was an intuition that a warrior could only develop after struggling between life and death for many years. That is to say, although the young man in front of him, although he is young, he definitely has the ability to match him, and he must not relax his vigilance because of his youth.
