Chapter 223: Nine Virtues and Battle Spirit

There are many dangers on Daiyu Immortal Mountain, and for Xuan Immortals like Kong Xuan, the most terrifying thing is the power of the Chaos Bell. 【】The Chaos Bell is an innate treasure, and its power is not covered, although it is not driven by anyone, it is an ownerless thing, but the treasures all have a spiritual surname, because of its own "self-defense" consciousness, so it will automatically send out a power attack.

Kong Xuan had been to Daiyu Immortal Mountain three times before, and each time he was forced to leave because he couldn't resist the bell of the Chaos Bell. Today, witnessing Zhang Zixing easily resisting the dragon's roar with the help of the "magic weapon" made Kong Xuan's heart move, he had originally said that he would ask for help from this powerful imperial brother, but now it seems that his hope has increased greatly.

Zhang Zixing has been worried about Kong Xuan's magic weapon, and now when he heard him talk about Daiyu Immortal Mountain, he knew that Kong Xuan had already had a predetermined "object", and he was also very happy, and even if he agreed, he said that he would do his best to help.

After Ying Long Wendou lost to Zhang Zixing, he also said that he would redouble his efforts to cultivate, and strive to comprehend the rest of the secret skills of the dragon clan. Ying Long is the god of the fairy world, originally a dragon with two wings, although he is known as the king of dragons and the ultimate incarnation of the dragon clan, but this final level refers to the form that is different from the horned dragon and the dragon, rather than the final level of strength. In terms of strength, above Ying Long, there are also golden dragons and yellow dragons who are also gods, and their cultivation alone is not very outstanding. But the dragon clan is not without real power, if the highest level of strength is the head of the four divine beasts, the green dragon, its strength is enough to the phoenix, white tiger, Xuanwu any one to contend with.

Due to the ancient demon war, many powerful dragons either participated in the war, or were affected by the war, almost all casualties, and the green dragon also disappeared mysteriously, and many of the dragons' secret techniques have not been handed down. And the blood of the dragon clan in the mortal world is mixed, and the cultivation is getting weaker and weaker, only the Dragon King of the Four Seas has also taken the position of a "civil servant", and he is in a safe corner of the sea, which can be regarded as barely holding up the name of "dragon".

Although in the eyes of the dragon clan in the mortal world, Ying Long is the final form of the incarnation of a god, but his strength and cultivation are still far from the true final level of the green dragon. Kong Xuan was born in Hongmeng, well-informed, and also knew something about the dragon clan, so he passed the "dragon roar" to Ying Long, but Kong Xuan was not a dragon after all, so the rest of the secret skills had to be understood and understood by Ying Long himself.

How to "adapt to the situation in battle, organically combine one's own cultivation with scientific and technological strength, and twist it into one to exert the greatest power" has become the direction of his future efforts.

Zhang Zixing knew that the Chaos Bell had an important surname for Kong Xuan, and immediately sent Yuan Hong to Jinao Island to tell Han Zhixian that she must try to refine the Nine Turns Tianyuan Pill within three months, so as to help Kong Xuan recover his vitality and go to Daiyu Immortal Mountain.

In order to help Kong Xuan, Zhang Zixing stepped up his research on efficient soundproofing devices together with Chao Brain at the base of the Star Picking Tower, and at the same time, he had just become a Golden Immortal, and it would take a while for him to adapt to and become familiar with the power of the new level.

The next day, Fang Wei, who was in charge of the official department of Daibigan, received a report from the officials of the Zhaoxian Pavilion that he knew that there was a sage living in the lower reaches of the Yan River, and immediately sent someone to investigate. The official reported that this person's surname was noble, and although he had the talent of the world, he was unwilling to go out. When Fang Wei heard this, he went there in person and had a long talk with this person for a long night, and found that he had studied the "Great Business Rites" very much, and he had many high opinions, which made Fang Wei admire.

As the officials of the Zhaoxian Pavilion said, this person regarded fame and fortune as floating clouds, regardless of Fang Wei's pleadings, and after leaving nine words, he drifted away.

These nine words are "loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, faith, piety, and moderation".

Soon, the supplement of the "Dashang Quarterly" was released, which focused on the opinions of Fang Wei, an official of the Ministry of Rites, on the "Dashang Rites", and made a detailed elaboration and explanation of the "Five Constants" proposed by the Son of Heaven that year, and proposed a bold expansion to evolve the original Five Constants of "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith" into nine virtues, namely loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, faith, and integrity.

The first word of Jiude is "loyalty" - the first is reflected in the "loyalty to the king", and once again emphasizes the "monarch is the minister" in the three outlines: loyal ministers can be immortal, and traitors are spurned for generations. Of course, this "loyalty" also has the meaning of loyalty, loyalty, and forgiveness, and the same applies to ordinary people.

"Filial piety" is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, emphasizing the order of the elders and the young, mainly to the parents and elders of the "filial piety". "ζ‚Œ" is derived from this, referring to the love between brothers, and filial piety is called "the foundation of benevolence".

In terms of the original "benevolence" and "righteousness", Fang Wei also made a further detailed explanation, and called the virtuous as "benevolent", and the unvirtuous as "unkind", and "benevolence" as the common moral goal of individuals and society. "Righteousness" includes righteousness, justice, fairness, etc., which is the highest morality that people should follow, and also puts forward the supreme idea of "sacrificing one's life for righteousness".

The last "knot" is the qi and the knot. This festival is not the same as the chastity that restricts and restricts women in later generations, but mainly refers to the political and moral steadfastness of people.

As soon as the theory of "Nine Virtues" came out, it immediately aroused a warm response, and the theory of "Da Shang Rites", which was originally deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, once again became the focus of heated discussions, and Fang Wei became famous because of it.

When the Son of Heaven heard this, he couldn't help but be happy, and personally wrote the imperial treasure of "loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, faith, piety, and festival" to Fang Wei, and renamed the original thanksgiving charm as the Nine Virtue Charm, calling on the subjects of the world to take the Nine Virtues as a model.

Due to the onset of Bigan's heartache and his inability to take care of the government, the Son of Heaven immediately promoted Fang Wei to the acting minister, and at the same time, he was also promoted to the doctor Fei Zhong. The two of them were the left and right prime ministers, and the temporary prime ministers, and at the same time transferred a "little-known" little person You Hun to the household department to listen to it.

Fang and Fei are the two most favored "courtiers" of the Son of Heaven, and Fang Wei is famous all over the world because of the "nine virtues", so the ministers are also somewhat mentally prepared for the position of the two acting prime ministers, but what kind of person is Youhun, but I have never heard of it.

After many inquiries, some courtiers learned that You Hun was the elder brother of Fei Zhong's favorite concubine, and the family was very rich. After bribing Fei Zhong heavily, he introduced him to the Son of Heaven, and took the initiative to offer all his family wealth to build Lutai for the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven was therefore very happy, and gave You Hun to serve in the household department, succeeding Fei Zhong, and was responsible for the construction of Lutai and Xinshou Xiangong in the southern suburbs. You Hun's matter made some courtiers who wanted to be promoted think that they had found a shortcut to promotion, but after learning the specific amount of this You Hun donation, they were stunned and did not think about it again.

Many ministers were very surprised by Fang Wei's sudden "outburst" this time - Fang Wei was originally a military general, but was captured by Huang Feihu's Eastern Expedition, and later subdued Dashang, turned into a civil servant, and was in charge of Dashang Quarterly in the Ministry of Rites. Although this person is scheming, his writing seems to be extremely ordinary, and he has never been brilliant, how could he suddenly give birth to such a high theory that shocked the world?

Many well-intentioned people tried their best to investigate this matter, and it took a little difficulty to get a news: before Fang Wei published "Nine Virtues", he had gone to the lower reaches of the Yan River and did not return all night. It is said that the "common people" in the vicinity said that there seemed to be a great sage living in this area, but somehow he had left, and the time of departure happened to be when Fang Wei came to the Yan River. This not only makes people think of killing people, but when they went to look for the relevant personnel of the Zhaoxian Pavilion, they found that those officials had been removed and their whereabouts were unknown, and even the records of the Zhaoxian Pavilion seemed to have been deliberately erased and became a blank.

This time, the truth seems to be revealed, but Fang Wei is in the position of the prime minister at this time, and he is deeply favored by the Son of Heaven, even if this matter is reported to the Son of Heaven, I am afraid that I will not be able to bring down Fang Wei, but will be poisoned by him. These people are all old foxes in officialdom, and they immediately set their eyes on Fei Zhong, the right prime minister.

Fei Zhong and Fang Wei are both favored ministers of the Son of Heaven, and they are both deep people. When Fei Zhong was in charge of the Dashang Quarterly, he focused on arresting people's pigtails, and he didn't know how many bribes he received. But Fei Zhong is also an "honest" person, and after accepting bribes, he will generally fulfill his contract.

However, Fang Wei is different, in the face of bribes, he will accept them quietly, but no one knows whether he will expose this person for bribing or do things for others. However, Fang Wei admired people who were capable and useful, and because he was not from a noble background, he did not attach importance to his noble background, and cultivated a group of his own forces in the court.

Fei Zhong focuses on "wealth", while Fang Wei pays more attention to "people", the relationship between the two has always been incompatible, and the secret exclusion and struggle are continuous. This time, Fang Wei successfully took the position through the "Nine Virtues", and the official residence was the prime minister of the left generation, which was regarded as the last, and Fei Zhong was resentful. After learning about this secret from a well-intentioned person, Fei Zhong's eyes lit up, and he praised the person who came, promising that there would be a good reward.

After taking office, he suggested to the Son of Heaven that a series of measures to benefit the people were introduced, and Fei Zhong also seemed to be very active and actively cooperated.

Ministers who are familiar with the two know that this is just some superficial work, as long as the time passes, the true faces of the two will gradually be revealed, and those who provide Fei Zhong with information are even more aware that Fei Zhong will never give up such an opportunity to bring down competitors, as long as the time comes, there will be a good show.

No one would have thought that the role of these nine virtues is not only a kind of control over the people's hearts and public opinion, but also provides a steady stream of power for a certain magic weapon, and it is precisely because of this power that the nine battle spirits in that magic weapon are also consolidated and strengthened day by day.

The director of all this is naturally the son of heaven who says "not doing his job".
