Chapter 43: State Affairs
Wang Weitai took the porcelain bottle and opened it, there was an emerald green pill in the porcelain bottle, Wang Weitai was in the late stage of Liding, and he still had eyesight, and immediately knew that this was a genuine Fadan.
However, Fadan is rare, and Wang Weitai can't tell what kind of Fadan this is, so he asked, "Elder Xia Zong, what kind of Fadan is this? Can it really cure the injuries of dogs?"
Xia Yuan replied: "This is the Bone Pill, which specializes in treating bone injuries, taking the Bone Pill, and using the aura to induce the medicinal power to the affected area, even if the bone is broken into powder, it can be restored as before." ”
Wang Weitai's restraint was extremely strong, and after a short period of excitement, his face quickly returned to calm, "Elder Xia Zong's elixir seems to be able to cure the dog's arm injury, this disability is not counted, but the identification of serious injuries is no problem." ”
Xia Yuan smiled: "I also agree with this, I don't know what kind of compensation Wang Shuai needs to not sue?"
Wang Weitai said: "The dog's matter will be talked about after his arm injury is healed, does Elder Xia Zong have any objections?"
"That's reasonable, and I have no objection. Xia Yuan replied. Wang Weitai wanted to see that the curative effect of the Raw Bone Pill was normal, and it was impossible for anyone to believe it hastily as soon as they heard what they said.
Wang Weitai said: "Put aside the matter of the dog for the time being, Xia Zong is old and young, I don't know what to think of the current situation?"
Seeing that Wang Weitai didn't seem to pay much attention to the hurtful things in the summer, and suddenly changed the topic to talk about state affairs, Xia Yuan was slightly surprised, "Wang Shuai, I live in the countryside to cultivate, and I don't know anything about the current situation, how can I have any opinion?"
Wang Weitai said: "The current situation is difficult, Chen and Yan are eyeing each other, friction on the border is becoming more and more frequent, and there are many conflicts; the court is chaotic, and the courtiers are all harming the public and private interests, and they are dedicated to themselves; many local thousand-year-old families are gradually losing their virtues, arrogant, arrogant, and absurd. Today's patriotism, the country's strength is declining, the people are suffering for it, and the soldiers are cold!"
Xia Yuan gently picked up the teacup, lowered his head slightly and tasted the tea, in the face of Wang Weitai's bluntly said that there were many shortcomings in defending the country today, he didn't know what he meant, and was silent for the time being.
Wang Weitai looked at Xia Yuan with blazing eyes, "What did Elder Xia Zong do in Jianchang County, the old man has inquired in detail, Elder Xia Zong destroyed the Lichen Sect that had been evil in Jianchang County for many years, and returned the peace of Jianchang County, which was sincerely praised by the people of Jianchang County. The Xia family has also risen suddenly, but under the constraints of the Xia Sect Elder, the Xia family treats people modestly and in accordance with the rules, and does not get carried away at all. Other families in Jianchang County looked at the scenery from below, and the atmosphere in the county was clear, the etiquette was revived, and the people were happy. ”
"Elder Xia Zong's actions are subtle, he can uproot the Dusty Sect without panicking, and he can restrain the family, lead the atmosphere, and erect virtue and ritual; Now that the defense of the country is old and staggering, it is necessary for a young man like Xia Zonglao to stimulate his vitality, I wonder if Xia Zonglao is willing to go out and revive the weakened Weiguo?"
Xia Yuan listened to Wang Weitai's plan, and was dumbfounded, this is really a virtuous minister who is dedicated to the country, it seems that the summer incident is just an introduction, Wang Weitai doesn't care too much, and he uses this matter to lure himself to the door, and lobbying himself is his purpose.
Putting down the teacup and raising his head, Xia Yuan replied: "Wang Shuai is brave and loyal, and he is dedicated to the country, I admire him very much." I don't shy away from saying that I do have some ability, but I don't know anything about state affairs, so how dare I talk about reviving the country? I am accustomed to being at ease in Qing cultivation, and I have no idea of becoming a leader for the time being. ”
Wang Weitai said: "Xia Zong Lao Mo is in a hurry to refuse, although you like to cultivate freely, but you are not as indifferent to the world as other cultivators, just take the grange where you live as an example, you have implemented a lot of policies to benefit the people, which shows that you are kind-hearted." Now the decline of the patriotic state is becoming more and more obvious, once Chen and Yan take the opportunity to invade, the war will be chaotic, and the people's lives will be ruined! Xia Zong does not know about state affairs, it doesn't matter, the old man can explain it for you in detail. ”
Xia Yuan said with a smile: "Let's talk about it later, I'm really a little curious about state affairs, isn't this Evergreen True Monarch protecting and defending the country? How can he still face the invasion of Chen and Yan?"
Seeing that Xia Yuan did not say that he refused to go out to death, and that he was also interested in state affairs, Wang Weitai felt that there was something to be done, and hurriedly replied: "According to tradition, the protection of the true monarch to the imperial family is limited to civil strife. That is to say, if the Wei Guo family seizes power in the internal turmoil and the royal family is defeated, the Evergreen True Monarch will help; if another country comes to attack, the Evergreen True Monarch will not make a move, because other countries also have the True Monarch behind them. For example, Chen Guo has the support of Heishui Zhenjun behind him. ”
"There have been instances in history where two countries fought each other, resulting in two true monarchs facing off against each other, and in the end, both sides lost. Later, in order to avoid the fight between the true monarchs because of secular matters, the true monarchs agreed with each other that the true monarchs would no longer interfere in the dispute between the two countries, and it has continued to this day, and this rule has become a convention between the true monarchs. ”
"Of course, because this is just a convention, whether the current generation of true monarchs will abide by this rule? Emperors of various countries are still very cautious when they start national disputes, and generally only when a country is extremely decayed and it takes a lot of effort for the true monarch to save it, will other countries peep into the invasion. ”
"Yan Guo is different from Chen Guo, it also relies on Evergreen True Monarch, but after all, it is two countries, two families, if the country declines, Yan State will never let go of the opportunity to expand. If the Yan Kingdom annexes the Wei Kingdom, the offerings to the Evergreen True Monarch will definitely be doubled, and there will be no loss of benefits for the Evergreen True Monarch. Therefore, when the Yan Kingdom attacked the Wei Kingdom, the Evergreen True Monarch would not care about it. ”
"Now that the country is being defended, the people in the country are scattered, the people's livelihood is difficult, many problems are numerous, and the military and politics are in chaos. If the country does not change, when Chen and Yan see through the truth, they will definitely invade on a large scale, and this matter is imminent. ”
Xia Yuan said: "In this way, Evergreen True Monarch basically will not help defend the country. Listening to what Wang Shuai said, now, the situation of defending the country is extremely dangerous, I don't know how this situation came about?"
Wang Weitai saw that Xia Yuan was interested in state affairs, and he was happy, and hurriedly explained in detail.
Wei is extremely fortunate to have a relationship with two generations of true monarchs, and Wei has enjoyed the country for more than 2,000 years. With the protection of the true monarch, the Wei family did not worry about rebellion, and the long-term comfort on the one hand bred arrogance and luxury, and on the other hand, the ability of the Wei family's children became worse and worse; the local families could not rebel against the Wei family, lost their self-motivation, and became decadent and corrupt; large and small families monopolized the cultivation exercises and resources, and it was difficult for the common people to advance to the upper class, so they could only stay numb at the bottom and let them be fish. The entire patriotic society is rigid and rigid, all strata lack morale, and mediocre people abound.
