Reborn Daqin, I am the emperor
Page 299
Behind the Taoist dojo, there is a hill, under the hill, stands a pavilion, and beside the pavilion, there is a house.
The pavilion is named [Jinniang Pavilion], and the house is named [Xiangwangju]
Beside the Jinniang Pavilion, there is a tomb. In front of the tomb, the Taoist master, Xuan Tongzi, has been guarding him for many years, sitting in the pavilion. At this moment, there is no exception.
The Xiangwang residence on the side was specially built by the disciples for Xuantongzi, and provided for Xuantongzi to rest when he was tired.
At this moment, Xuan Tongzi was leaning against the pavilion, holding the wine jug, taking a sip from time to time.
He poked his head out of the pavilion, looking at the stars in the sky, frowning, thinking about something.
Wang Lin walked step by step, but Xuan Tongzi, a master like him, seemed to have not noticed it, and continued to taste wine and watch the sky, muttering to himself from time to time: "Two emperor stars, what's going on?"
"It's not right. Two Emperor Stars appeared at the same time, and at the same time they hid at the same time. They both have signs of being seductive and guarding their hearts. What exactly does this mean?"
Xuan Tongzi frowned, thinking about it, and took another gulp of wine.
"One of the emperor stars is obviously His Majesty the Emperor of Qin today, but His Majesty the Emperor himself is the root of the world's chaos and the only person who can put down the world's chaos. At this time, the stars should shine in the sky, why? Will suddenly hide away? Also, this other one is outside the customs, what is the meaning?"
Unable to figure it out, Xuan Tongzi took another sip of wine.
On the side, Wang Lin couldn't help frowning as he listened, and didn't understand for a while.
"Wang Lin pays homage to Taoist master Xuantongzi!"
Suddenly, Wang Lin bowed and said respectfully.
Xuan Tongzi sat up slowly, looked back at Wang Lin, and said with a smile, "I said, Wang Lin, I remember that you also learned the art of stargazing before. I don't know how you feel about stargazing?"
Wang Lin shook his head, stepped forward with a smile, walked into the pavilion, and said, "Master, Wang Lin only knows a little bit, how can he understand it?"
"To put it bluntly, Wang Lin's insignificant ability is not even superficial."
"Just today, I suddenly felt a vision in my heart, which seemed to be a sign of great danger, and it was hard to understand, so I came to look for the master, wanting to ask a question or two!"
When Xuan Tongzi heard this, he smiled wryly and said, "Come to ask me, you are really asking the wrong person. This kind of astrology and divination is not what I am good at."
"At the end of the day, I only know a little superficial. No, after reading it for a long time, I still can't understand the true meaning!"
"If my senior brother were here now, maybe it would be much easier!"
As he said that, Xuan Tongzi looked helpless.
Among the hundreds of schools of thought, if one is said to be the best at astrology and divination, it should be about Taoism and Yin-Yang.
However, since Qin Shihuang sent Xu Fu of the Yin-Yang family to visit many times in order to find the elixir, and finally did not return, Qin Shihuang realized that he was deceived, became furious, and killed countless people of the Yin-Yang family in one fell swoop.
Even now, although the Yin-Yang family still exists, it is difficult to enter the hall of elegance, and even the weak ones cannot enter the Jixia Academy. Therefore, in this respect, Taoism dominates.
Chapter 513
Although Taoism has great ability in divination, the technique of divination is not so easy, especially to observe the lifeblood of the whole world.
Even Taoist No. 1, Bai Weng Taoist, is difficult to do, let alone others.
For example, Xuan Tongzi also kept secret about this, making it difficult to understand.
"Master Xuantongzi, is it very confusing?"
Wang Lin asked with a frown.
Xuan Tongzi shook his head and smiled, "It's very, very chaotic!"
As he said that, Xuantongzi changed the subject and said with a smile: "Look at you, your injuries are still serious, I won't let you sit down, lest your ass bleed later, it's not good!"
Wang Lin was stunned, then smiled lightly, and said: "Thank you, but master, even if it is difficult to understand the astrology in the sky, you should be able to see something, right? Please give me some pointers!"
As soon as Wang Lin finished speaking, another voice sounded not far away, saying: "That's right, even if you can't see through everything, you can always spy a part or two. I don't know what the master can spy on?"
Hearing this, Wang Lin and Xuan Tongzi turned their heads to look at the same time, and saw not far away, Zhang Liang, Minister of the Ministry of War, with his hands behind his back, dressed in casual clothes, came with a smile.
"The young general has met Master Shangshu!" Seeing this, Wang Lin hurried forward to pay homage.
"Okay, you are welcome, General Wang, please hurry up!"
Zhang Liang waved his hands, helped Wang Lin up, and then sat down in the pavilion, staring at Xuantongzi with a half-smile.
"Hehe, Zhang Zi, if I remember correctly, Zhang Zi has followed Han Fei, the son of South Korea, in his life, so he even understands the theory of the Legalist school. But in the end, Zhang Zi is not a Legalist. man of."
"Zhang Zi's background is mysterious to most people. As far as I know, what Zhang Zi is best at is watching the stars and the moon, and calculating the theory of the world. On this point, Zhang Zi It should have surpassed Xuantong, why come here to inquire?"
Facing Zhang Liang's gaze, Xuan Tongzi shook his head and smiled.
"Master's words are wrong. Confucianism has a saying that three people must have my teacher. If you say that you are good enough to calculate the world, you can look at the stars and the moon. How can Liang be compared with Taoist masters?"
"It's fate that the three of us can gather here today. Why don't the three of us have a discussion and deduce the world's chess game?"
Zhang Liang leaned against the pavilion and said with a smile.
On the side, Wang Lin didn't speak, but quietly looked at the two people in front of him.He is very clear that these two are the best at this way.
"Zhang Zi, please tell me!"
Xuan Tongzi didn't talk nonsense, and made a gesture of invitation.
"Well, since that's the case, let Liang Lai open the door. Master Xuantongzi must have heard about what happened to the emperor today. Regarding this matter, what is Master Xuantongzi's opinion?"
Zhang Liang nodded and started the first sentence of the discussion.
"Zhang Zi, for a long time ago, everyone may not have known about His Majesty's background, but now, His Majesty's background has long been known to the world."
"It is said that at the beginning, Chang'an Jun Chengjiao rebelled and was killed by the first emperor, leaving orphans and widows in exile."
"His Majesty the First Emperor couldn't bear it, and searched the world, and finally kept His Majesty the current Emperor by his side!"
"I heard that at that time, His Majesty's name was Ying Huo. Do you understand the meaning of this?"
"Yinghuo guards the heart, the source of the world's war, and the only person who can quell the world's war."
"So Your Majesty's life is destined to be born for war. It is normal for Your Majesty to start a war!"
"Finally, there is one more point. I wonder if Zhang Zi paid attention to it? When the former Qin came to an end, the eighteen kings divided the world, and the emperor's star shone on the people of Chu, and landed in the land of Bashu."
"According to the logic, among the eighteen anti-kings, the future emperor should be from Chu, and the land should be in Bashu!"
"But seeing that the overall situation is about to be settled, all the situations have reversed in an instant. The Emperor Star has fallen, and the Battle Star has replaced the Emperor Star."
"Isn't this the sudden appearance of His Majesty the Emperor, which disrupted the overall situation of the world? In the end, the division of the world by the eighteen kings was broken, and His Majesty the Emperor worked hard to calm the world and unify the Great Qin."
"So, Your Majesty is a vision, a vision that represents war and peace. Now, His Majesty is fighting for the world, but is obstructed by the officials and people. I really don't know if it is right or wrong!"
Xuantongzi sighed, and spoke earnestly.
"Oh, don't you know, what will happen after such a result?"
Zhang Liang asked quickly.
"My Taoist ancestor, Lao Tzu has a saying, Tao follows nature, and what is preached is the way of nature."
"Once upon a time, Your Majesty also discussed this natural way with His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty is also doing his best to govern the world by the way that the world's people rule the world."
"But one thing, I don't know if you have thought about it. This method is naturally very easy to say, but in practice, the price you pay is not small!"
Xuan Tongzi shook his head, and his expression became a little dignified as he spoke.
"Oh, since the Taoist ancestor preached that Taoism follows nature, this should be a very perfect way of governing the country. How can there be a price?"
Zhang Liang was puzzled.
"Hehe, the more perfect something is, the higher the price you will pay."
"Your Excellency, have you ever thought that Lao Tzu escaped from Da Zhou, not only Lao Tzu, but all schools of thought basically escaped from Da Zhou."
"As Rujia shows, what Confucius inherited was the Zhou rituals, what Lao Tzu inherited and improved was the Zhou system and so on."
"In fact, many things in the Zhou Dynasty are perfect, but this perfection, without a strong enough ability, who can control it?"
Xuantongzi raised his head and took a sip of his wine, and said with a smile, "The law of Taoism is natural, who can be as thorough as the Zhou Dynasty? At the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were more than a hundred princes, and it can be said that the world is peaceful. Every place is governed so that the roads are not picked up, and the doors are not closed at night."
"Zhou Tianzi sat in Luoyang and let the world play its role. It can be said that Taoism is natural. What is the result? People's selfishness is causing trouble. With the death of the Zhou Dynasty's first king, who can control the selfishness of the people in the world?"
"The result is that the world's rites and music are broken, and the Spring and Autumn and Warring States have been fought for hundreds of years, year after year."
"The so-called Emperor Zhou is just a prisoner imprisoned in Luoyang!"
"But this method is natural, and the final payment is that thousands of soldiers have died on the battlefield for hundreds of years. May I ask your Excellency, is this price high or not?"
Hearing this, Zhang Liang's heart trembled suddenly, as if he also thought of the scene of the various countries competing for supremacy, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Thinking about the land of the Central Plains again, countries fought for hegemony for hundreds of years, from more than 100 vassal states at the beginning, to the last dozen or so vassal states, all of which were finally destroyed by the Great Qin.
The demise of these countless vassal states symbolizes endless death.This price is simply unacceptable.
Even sometimes, looking at today's prosperous age, Zhang Liang even hated the emperor a little bit.
Even though the first emperor made nobles from all over the world, like Zhang Liang, hate him endlessly.But I have to say, he really quelled thousands of years of war!
Chapter 514 Predicting the Great Qin Crisis
"Master, it's really embarrassing that Zhou's court ceremony has collapsed, but it doesn't seem to have much to do with Daqin today, right?"
Although Zhang Liang lamented the former Great Zhou Dynasty, it didn't seem to have much to do with the topic of the current discussion, so he immediately asked.
"Hehehe, your Excellency is the Minister of the Ministry of War anyway, the great military adviser of Daqin, and the pillar of the military aircraft department, how can you say such words? Let me ask you, what is the national strength of Daqin now?"
Xuan Tongzi sneered, looked at Zhang Liang and asked.
"My great Qin Tianyou, within one year, the national power has increased dozens of times, which is comparable to the reign of the First Emperor, and it is a time of complete victory!"
Zhang Liang replied instinctively.
"Hehehe, to put it nicely, the national power is comparable to the time of the first emperor's complete victory. In the final analysis, the power of a part of the country at that time is the internal power. But what about the power to fight against the outside world? What do you think? How do you feel about having the Dharma Protector General?"
Xuan Tongzi chuckled again, and while speaking, asked Zhang Liang and Wang Lin directly.
Zhang Liang was stabilized by these words. Indeed, in the face of such a force, Daqin was indeed so weak that it was unimaginable.
With an army of 30 to [-], in the Spring and Autumn Period, any vassal state could be called a hegemonic state.
But such a military force, if placed in the Seven Kingdoms vying for supremacy, can only be regarded as a powerful country at best, and it is not the strongest one.
As for dominating the world, don't even think about it.
But now, the Great Qin has unified the territory of hundreds of vassal states in the Zhou Dynasty, and has even taken over a large piece of land in Baiyue. Its jurisdiction is more than fifteen times larger than that of any of the previous seven kingdoms.
But its strength is only comparable to the weakest existence among the Seven Kingdoms.
It is ridiculous to say that this kind of military strength is not even able to achieve hegemony, but it is used by Daqin to consolidate this unified world.
Zhang Liang was silent, Wang Lin was silent for a moment, and said: "My Great Qin's military strength is so weak that it is frighteningly weak.
If it wasn't for Generalissimo Wei Liaozi who vowed to protect the Great Wall to the death, how could the Great Qin be peaceful for a while?
Today, on this land, in the city outside the Great Wall, there are three major powers, namely our Great Qin, the Xiongnu, and Donghu.
Among them, my Daqin is considered the richest, but in terms of military strength, I will be crushed by the other two at any time, and I have no power to fight back! "
Hearing this, Xuan Tongzi said with a smile, "That's right, my Great Qin's power to fight against the outside world is really too weak. There are 30 troops in name, but the only ones who can really make a difference are the 20 soldiers guarding the Great Wall." Wan Dajun."
"This level of strength, not to mention fighting against the outside world, is difficult even for Annei. You really think that the person guarding the Great Qin is the Generalissimo Wei Liaozi, but it is not the case. The person guarding the Great Qin is my Majesty the Emperor of Qin!"
"If it hadn't been before, the world would be settled in the first battle, and the 50 Hun army would be wiped out within the Great Wall. How could Xiaoxiao be deterred?"
"Now, His Majesty is delegating power to all of you, but he can't let you all go. It's not that His Majesty the Emperor is afraid that he won't be able to control the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. The key point is that His Majesty the Emperor won't let you go."
"Otherwise, His Majesty the Emperor let go. Who do you think can protect Daqin in this world?"
Hearing this, Zhang Liang and Wang Lin's bodies trembled slightly. Before, they were only focused on doing their own things, and they thought too far, but they forgot the most fundamental problem.
Yes, no matter how strong Daqin will develop in the future, at present, Daqin is really too weak.
In the great ideal, no matter how great the revenge is, Daqin must go through this short period of danger.
"I understand. His Majesty the Emperor has been leading the battle and developing our Great Qin forces. He just wanted to eliminate the two great scourges of the Xiongnu and Donghu as soon as possible, so as to fulfill His Majesty's idea of governing the country? Before it even started, it was already aborted, and Daqin will face the most serious crisis in thousands of years!"
Wang Lin, solemnly said.
