Volume 1 Life History Chapter 8 The Temple of Today
The imperial capital of Great Xia, Yong'an City.
The predecessor of Yong'an City was Lin'an City, which was formerly the capital of Lin'an City, and was renamed Yong'an City as the capital after the establishment of Great Xia. It is located on the south bank of the Yangtze River, connecting the Central Plains, and its strategic and economic position is very important. The Wang family was the first to capture this place as a basis, retreating to stick to the south of the Yangtze River, and entering to overlook the north of the river and look down on the world. There are four garrison cities in the surrounding 100 miles, which contain 100,000 elite iron cavalry, known as invincible in the plains. It was specially used to quell the rebellion and defend the Beijing Division.
Something to play, nothing to retreat from the dynasty -
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!"
"Aiqing, please speak." In the splendid palace, a court meeting is being held, and on the magnificent dragon chair, a bloated and luxurious man is sitting on his face, he is the emperor of the dynasty - Wang Yi.
"Your Majesty, after years of war and turmoil in the north, the situation is turbulent, the people are displaced, and the social outlook has fallen seriously. Please follow the 12 policies of the previous dynasty and adopt the three major strategies of raising the people, reclaiming the land, and stopping the war, so as to basically restore order in the north. ”
"Exactly."
Retreat from the Dynasty –
The hundred officials gradually came out, Wang Yi returned to the dormitory, sat on the dragon couch, and continued to lie down.
It's so tiring......
When people have no rights, their desire for rights can reach a level of madness. And once the power is in hand, you will gradually get tired of this feeling of being deep in the dark palace and not being free. Wang Yi straightened up, picked up the decoction that the imperial doctor had just boiled on the side, didn't care about the bitterness, raised his neck, and drank it in one gulp. The dry taste from the tip of his tongue made his facial features slightly distorted. He gritted his teeth, covered his mouth and swallowed.
"You're not cured yet?"
"When did you come? Can't you just show up normally? The sudden voice startled Wang Yi.
Below, a man in white leaned on the pillar of the main hall, holding a wine glass in his hand, slowly tasting the palace wine.
This person was Wang Xin, who had just returned from the Western Barbarian Land, and he looked at Wang Yi, "Why have you been like this all the time?" Can't the doctor cure it? ”
Wang Yi smiled casually, "The root of the disease that fell since childhood can't be cured." ”
Wang Xin was silent, bowing his head and not saying a word. Of course, he knew how the root of the disease fell, and this matter had a lot to do with him......
Wang Yi looked at him like this and waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, people say that when they reach fifty, they don't live young, maybe I can still hold on until that time." ”
"Don't talk about it, it's hard for you to come here, we will get drunk tonight!"
Three rounds of drinking.
"By the way, you came to me, is there something wrong?"
"The people of Xia Yintang found out that these people have a lot of relationship with the former dynasty, and have always had close contacts with people from abroad, and most of them are secretly engaged in activities to restore the country."
Wang Yi frowned, "Then what do you want to do?" ”
"Leave no stone unturned." Wang Xin drank all the wine in the cup and set the ending for these people lightly.
This is the god of war who rules the life and death of a country, a sword ambushes millions of corpses, and a word determines life and death.
"That's it, these are all high-ranking officials above the fifth grade, if you kill them all, the court will be turbulent, everyone will be in danger, and it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble." Wang Yi waved his hand, disagreeing with Wang Xin's idea of wanting to wipe them out.
"Plague for a thousand years." Wang Xin didn't say anything more and once again made his position clear.
Wang Yi sighed and said softly, "Can you just listen to me once?" You also know that I'm dying, and killing these important members of the court at this point in time is tantamount to creating extraneous branches, causing a mutiny at that time, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”
Wang Xin stared at him, "You should know my original intention, I just want to get rid of dissidents and leave no trouble." ”
As long as the world is stable and there is no strife and chaos, these people are only a disease of moss after all, and it is difficult to become a climate. After all, the previous dynasty was already a piece of loess. Again, ahem...... Ahem......"
Wang Xin couldn't bear to look at him like this, "That's it, this time I listen to you." ”
After that, he stood up, drank the wine in his glass, and walked out, "I hope they won't touch my bottom line." ”
Wang Xin walked in the air, and in the blink of an eye, he left the palace and returned to the thatched hall in the dense forest.
How could he not understand the truth that there is much help for the righteous and little help for the unjust, but sometimes, the use of thunder means is the solution once and for all.
If he wants to stay away from the world, he must deter those with bad intentions as much as possible, and only by letting the Wang family truly settle down can he devote himself to chasing the peak of martial arts.
He took out the chess box and sat in the courtyard to play chess with himself. To others, this may seem like an extreme act of boredom. But in fact, only people with advanced Taoism can understand that this is a very clever cultivation method. Seventeen chessboards, two hundred and eighty-nine characters, play against themselves, as if they were fighting against themselves; A son falls and knows that the game is full of chess. You attack and defend, I advance and you retreat; All the ways in the world are tied to the chessboard.
Half an hour later, a round of chess to the last moment, the result is a dead end, to this realm, if you want to go further, you have to break your own mindset, in the self-game of the other side to win, put in order to go to the next level in the realm.
Wang Xin closed the chessboard and sat in the courtyard drinking and reading.
Suddenly, a yellowish bamboo leaf slowly fell down, and Wang Xin stared at this bamboo leaf.
A leaf falls to know the world in autumn.
It's time, it's the lifeblood of the dynasty, and we must hurry.
in the Royal Palace.
Wang Yi was alone in the dormitory after Wang Xin left, when he suddenly raised his head and asked the eunuch: "What time is it?" ”
"It's not time to go back to the emperor."
Wang Yi thought about it, it's not early.
He had no children in his life and only one daughter. And with his physical condition, he had to elect a person with both ability and political integrity in the sect as soon as possible to be the prince.
"Your Majesty, the slave should die, Princess Ling'er ran out of the palace again!"
"When?" Wang Yi felt that his head hurt again, his daughter had been eccentric since she was a child, and she didn't look like a princess.
"Your Majesty, there is still a letter left in the princess's dormitory."
Wang Yi took the letter, and there were a few big characters lying on it: Father and Queen Mother, I'm going out to play!
This girl has to come here once a year. Wang Yi shook his head, "Immediately order to go down, guard the princess in Xia Yintang, and try to protect her without being discovered by her." ”
Outside the palace gate, a girl dressed as a man climbed over the palace wall, "Haha, finally free." She jumped and jumped out of the imperial city, causing the Xia Yintang master who followed her to complain secretly: This is the first time that Her Royal Highness the princess has gone out without permission......
