Chapter 103: The Eternal Kingdom
"There was a famous Zen master who was about to pass away, and his disciples sat around him, waiting for the master to tell them the mysteries of life and the universe.
The Zen master remained silent, with his eyes closed. Suddenly, he asked his disciples, "How can I get rid of weeds?" The disciples were dumbfounded, they didn't expect the Zen master to ask such a simple question.
One disciple said, "Use a shovel to shovel all the weeds." The Zen master smiled and nodded.
Another disciple said, "You can burn the grass with a fire!" and the Zen master still smiled.
The third disciple said, "Sprinkle lime on the grass and get rid of the weeds!" The Zen master still had the same smile on his face.
The fourth disciple said, "None of their methods work, if they don't get rid of the roots, they will have to cut the grass and get rid of the roots, and the roots of the grass must be dug up." ”
After the disciples finished speaking, the Zen master said, "You have all spoken very well, from tomorrow onwards, you will divide this meadow into several pieces, remove the weeds on the ground according to your own method, and we will meet again in this place this time next year!"
At this time in the second year, the disciples came here early, and they had exhausted all kinds of methods to get rid of the weeds, and they had already given up this task, and now they were just trying to see what methods the Zen master used.
The Zen master's land that used to be overgrown with weeds is gone, replaced by golden crops.
The disciples immediately realized that the best way to get rid of weeds was to plant crops in the weeds.
They sat down around the crops, which were ripe, but the Zen master had already passed away. This was the last lesson the Zen master gave them, and the disciples all shed tears of gratitude.
There is only one way to get rid of weeds in the wilderness, and that is to plant crops. The only way to keep the mind from being barren is to cultivate one's virtues.
The road of officialdom has slowly degenerated you. Becomes less like a person. Rather, it loses the skin of the soul. This is also known as The Walking Dead.
What I hope is that from today onwards, I will slowly do what I should do. I will give you what you want. The premise is to make some great achievements for the country and the people.
But, can it be done?" said Emperor Tianqing.
The ministers said in unison: "Minister, you must do your best. He will not live up to His Majesty. ”
"Okay, I hope you can remember this sentence today, at this moment, in this Taiji Hall. But there is nothing wrong with it, don't be negative to the people of the world. Retreat!" Emperor Tianqing said.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live. After the ministers shouted three times to live the Tai Chi Palace, they withdrew from the Taiji Hall in an orderly manner.
But Emperor Tianqing did not leave. Just like that, a person sat in the Taiji Hall and looked at the sunlight that sneaked in outside the temple gate. He had a lot of things going on in his head.
Especially Concubine Hua, the impact on Emperor Tianqing is too great. Men and women are equal, everyone is equal, and the emperor also hopes that this world will be forever peaceful, without war and hatred. Don't leave so much blood and tears anymore.
The pile of white bones was a scene he never wanted to see again in his life. He wondered if he could build an ideal kingdom. A world of great harmony, a world where there are thousands of miles of mountains and rivers without the smoke and flames of war.
That would be a truly eternal kingdom!
A seed that is not big or small is buried in the heart of Emperor Tianqing. Perhaps, this seed will grow bigger and bigger. until it takes root and grows into a towering tree.
Maybe one day, in the hands of Emperor Tianqing, that kingdom will really be established.
The ideal is plump, the reality is skinny!
But there is always an ideal, what if it is realized?
"What do you want, so distracted?" Zi Xi didn't know when he stood beside Emperor Tianqing and said.
Emperor Tianqing came back to his senses and said, "It's nothing. By the way, Xi'er, let me ask you something. ”
"You say!" Zixi said.
"You say, will there be such an eternal kingdom? In that kingdom, there is no hatred, no selfishness, no greed. No war, no blood. Some are just equal for all, and some are just endless peace. Emperor Tianqing said.
"There must be, and I know where. Zixi said.
Emperor Tianqing asked suspiciously, "Hmm, is it?"
"In a dream!" Zixi said mischievously.
Emperor Tianqing smiled, but he didn't speak yet. Zixi continued: "That country is beautiful, but it doesn't exist. People are always human beings, and even if they are gods, they are only cultivated by human beings. Human nature cannot be changed. However, true peace, equality in a certain sense, is still possible. ”
Yes, there is no such thing as an ideal eternal kingdom. Everything is nothing but the best wishes. It's a kind of longing. Emperor Tianqing said.
"The ideal still has to be there, what if it is accidentally realized! Although the ideal is plump, the reality is skinny. Zixi said.
Emperor Tianqing sighed and said: "When did our family Xi'er have this little word in one set." Yes. ”
"Of course. By the way, Tianqing, Rufeng seems to have discovered the blood boy just now. But not sure. He said the breath was somewhat similar. Zixi said.
Emperor Tianqing said: "Blood boy, he is really bold. I haven't gone to him yet. He sent it to the door himself. It seems that the allure of this is not small. ”
"That's natural, there are some rumors about the Blood Boy from the outside world. Legend has it that he doesn't like anything and is only obsessed with martial arts. And I want to stand at the pinnacle of martial arts, and I also want to live forever. Zixi said.
Emperor Tianqing said: "People always have desires, if they don't like this, they must like that." There's always one that is wanted. ”
Zixi asked, "What about you, what do you want?"
"I don't like the country, I don't love power, I don't want fame, I don't want profit. I don't want to be the number one in the world, and I don't want to live forever, the only thing I want is ...... It's you. Emperor Tianqing said.
When Zixi heard Emperor Tianqing's words, her little face flushed. She asked shyly, "Really?"
"How dare I deceive our little Xixi? I can deceive all the people in the world, but I won't lie to you, I can deceive the whole world, but I won't deceive you. Emperor Tianqing said.
As soon as Emperor Tianqing's words fell, Zixi threw herself into Emperor Tianqing's arms. The two hugged like this, and the corners of their mouths invariably hung sweet smiles.
I hope that there are lovers in the world who will eventually become married, and it is the previous life that creates the situation, and don't miss the marriage.
Today's Great Qin has once again been reborn after the catastrophe.
Emperor Tianqing let go of Zixi and said, "Let's go, my queen mother, take you to eat something delicious." Fatten you up, and you won't be able to run away when you're fat. ”
"Hate, who is your queen, I haven't agreed yet. Zixi said a little shyly.
"Xi'er, I don't want to be my queen! Okay, I can only find another one. Emperor Tianqing deliberately teased Zixi and said.
Zi Xi also said with the trick of the emperor's heavenly feelings: "Whatever, you can do it casually." It just so happens that I'm looking for a handsome guy too. ”
As soon as he heard Zixi's words, Emperor Tianqing's entire face darkened.
