"Xue'er, you might as well tell me what you gained from going down the mountain this time?"

Guiguzi had already spoken, and Zhang Yi and Su Qin naturally didn't dare to stop. The two of them www.biquge.info had slowly knelt on the futon.

It was at this time that Xue'er nodded lightly, and after a little thought, she slowly spoke: "As far as the disciple is concerned, there is chaos today but it is not chaotic. It is said that the chaos is because since the three families were divided into Jin, and after Zhou Tianzi recognized Han, Zhao, and Wei, the princes of the world competed for strength and battle. It is said that it is not chaotic because, if we put aside the nominal co-ruler of the Great Zhou, in terms of each vassal state, such as Wei and Qin, who fought for many years, there was no internal chaos in the places they ruled, and the reason for the chaos was because Wei and Qin were at odds with each other. ”

"Hmm." Brushing his beard, Guiguzi's eyes were only closed, like a student who was seeking advice with his heart, nodding, he said lightly: "That's right, there are more than weeks in the world, there are still barbarians outside as early as ancient times, you can distinguish the deep meaning of the two different patterns in a few months, this time it is worth the trip to go down the mountain." Let's move on. ”

Zhang Yi and Su Qin on the side were also listening quietly, but after hearing Guiguzi's comments, their eyes showed a slight look of surprise, and they immediately listened more attentively.

Xue'er didn't say anything long-winded, and didn't ask Guiguzi anything, but continued: "Today, there are great people in the world who can be divided into seven countries, namely Qi, Chu, Qin, Wei, Han, Zhao, and Yan. In addition, there is the Yue Kingdom to the east of Great Chu, and there is Bashu to the south of Qin, which is second only to these seven countries, but it cannot be compared with the Seven Kingdoms. In addition, there are small countries such as Weiguo, Song, and Zhongshan that are struggling between large countries. The power of the original princes expanded, as if the relationship between relatives gradually became estranged, and the vassal states after several generations of inheritance now do not recognize the leadership of Zhou Tianzi, and want to be kings but dare not really call the king.

If one side claims to be the king, there will inevitably be many parties who will not accept it, and they will inevitably rise up and attack it. This is a taboo, but if you don't claim to be the king, the greed and desire in your heart will be difficult to suppress, so you will use your troops to force others to submit and become an uncrowned king. The reason why there are today's troubled times, Xue'er thinks that a vassal state is no longer the original princes, and Zhou Tianzi is no longer the son of heaven in their hearts, the seven great countries of Chu have been called kings, and the remaining six countries are in the Central Plains but dare not be called kings, so everyone wants to fight for an uncrowned king, so it has become today's troubled times. ”

The Seven Nations are constantly clashing. Bendu is the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a family that resists the barbarian invasion together.

Time has passed, why do they make a big move? Is it a continuation of the ruling government? In this era, Zhou Tianzi was the monarch, they were just princes, and they were all a family. If it's just for the continuation of the government, everyone has their own territory, so why don't you have to live or die if you don't interfere.

Everything that was originally calm did not affect the continuation of any dynasty, even if it was just a smaller vassal state in the Spring and Autumn Period, as long as it existed, it had its way of operating. Although the sparrow is small, it is the reason that it has all five organs.

Since it is not a question of the continuation of the government, then there is a problem of the prince itself, not respecting the Son of Heaven, not respecting the Zhou rites, and the so-called collapse of etiquette is just a war rhetoric.

As for why the etiquette collapses, it is nothing more than that the prince has a selfish desire, and the difference between people and all things is spiritual desire. The desire for location pushes one to explore mountains, rivers, abysses, empty valleys. If there is a desire, then there is an idea, and if there is an idea, as long as the desire reaches a certain level, then the action will inevitably appear.

Isn't today's troubled times the result of princes from all over the world vying to replace the Great Zhou, but they dare not really expose their ambitions? Open and secret fighting, intrigues and tricks, all means are all aimed at subjugating other countries.

Before I knew it, it was already dark, and the cave had become so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly.

"Haha-"

At the moment when the boy lit the oil lamp, the laughter of Guiguzi spread in the cave. I saw him nodding his head and said loudly: "That's right, why did you come to this valley to seek knowledge?" Learning for the sake of learning? Or for something else. Since it is not for the sake of learning, then there are other purposes, and the purpose you want to achieve is also like the princes of all walks of life, the purpose is the embodiment of desire, Xue'er divides the world into several large and small countries, this has indeed become the focus, the princes are self-centered, and the war is naturally not stopped. But since you are on the expedition, then I will ask you again for the teacher. As far as you know, which prince has the heaviest desires, and which prince wants to be a couple? ”

"This? As far as Xue'er knows, the one with the heaviest desire is the Central Plains Wei State. The remote Yan country seems to have no quarrel. ”

"This? Why did the senior sister say that it was Wei State? How is it not the state of Chu? Before Guiguzi could say anything, Zhang Yi preemptively asked.

But I saw Xue'er's two thick eyebrows slightly raised, and thought: "This, Xue'er doesn't know, but it feels like this, after all, the war in the Central Plains was caused by Wei, first fought with Qin for Hexi, and then because Zhao did not accept Wei's rule over Wei, and then attacked Zhao, and then attacked Han, just to say that Wei is the most unsinkable among the princes, since it is what Mr. said, the desire has accumulated to a certain extent, and it has begun to act one step ahead of other countries." ”

The surroundings were silent, the entrance of the cave was very large, and the three of them passed side by side, but even so, it was not cold at all, but it was exceptionally quiet.

Su Qin kept his head down and thought quietly.

The boy not far away did not know everything outside because he had never gone down the mountain, and he only had to follow the practice of Guiguzi in his heart, and he naturally felt bored if he didn't understand the rest of the things.

"So, what does the gentleman think?"

Xue'er's words fell, Zhang Yi looked at Guiguzi again, his eyes blinked lightly, and the expression on his face was relaxed and comfortable, as if he understood these truths in his heart, but he just wanted to know if Guiguzi had other opinions.

"What Xue'er said is not wrong, in other words, princes, subjects, and countries are just a title, such as Wei State, Wei Hou, Qin State, and Qin Duke, which are just titles. Da Chu claims to be the king, but he only claims to be the king, and the countries of the Central Plains do not buy his account, but he himself is meaningless to be happy. Although Wei Hou did not claim the title of king, he thought that he wanted the other princes to submit in his heart. Such a mind will surely become king in the future. Not only that, but what Wei Hou wanted was to let the other vassal states recognize his throne. The conquest between Qin and Wei was no less than a hundred years, and if they wanted to make the countries submit, Wei Hou naturally used Qin first to make an example of the monkeys. ”

The eloquent voice is casual and unremarkable. Blurted out again, filling the entire cave.

Zhang Yi only bowed his hand when he heard this, and he bowed deeply with respect: "Disciple, I have been taught." ”

Su Qin on the side never said a word, just quietly kept everything in his heart, and whenever he had spare time, he would think about it and savor it carefully.
