Seven hundred and sixtieth IX checks and balances
It is better to eat without meat than to live without bamboo.
The gardens in Jiankang City are full of beautiful and tall green bamboos.
But only a very small number of people know that there is a garden in Jiankang City, with only bamboo, but no residence, and not even a pavilion.
Several palace entourages wearing blue shirts were nervously patrolling outside the dilapidated walls of the garden. They didn't know why the emperor, who was rarely left, was interested in telling this garden with nothing but bamboo.
As for the origin of this garden, they are very clear about it.
Among the Three Saints of the South Heaven, He Xiuxing loves bamboo. This bamboo garden is the old garden where He Xiuxing was back then. Even if He Xiuxing was defeated by Shen Yue, he was imprisoned in the Nantianyuan Desert Garden, no one dared to move this bamboo garden. His Majesty the Emperor in the palace seemed to have completely forgotten it.
However, today His Majesty the Emperor suddenly left the palace and arrived here, which shows that he had never forgotten this garden.
Before His Majesty the Emperor entered the garden, all of them were sure that there was no one in the garden, which ruled out the possibility that His Majesty the Emperor would meet others today.
At this time, the only one who followed His Majesty the Emperor into the garden was the Great Monk Huiqi of Jiming Temple in the city.
Huiqi knew that His Majesty the Emperor must have something to do today, but he was the same as those worshippers outside. He didn't know when it was. Although he knew that His Majesty the Emperor was generous and kind, he was still very nervous when he looked at the back of His Majesty the Emperor slowly moving in the path covered with thick bamboo leaves in front of him.
"It's the first time I've entered this garden. Although I heard that there are only bamboos in this garden before, I didn't expect it to be so straightforward, not even a well, which is a bit difficult." Xiao Yan stopped deep in the garden.
Today he was just wearing an ordinary green shirt, but the emperor had his own majesty. Although he was just calmly commenting on the garden, even the great monk Huiqi, who had no desire for power, felt that the entire bamboo forest was instantly shrouded in an inexplicable pressure.
Difficult to deal with?
What's difficult to deal with?
He was puzzled, so he followed the truth that silence is gold, but he stopped and listened quietly.
"You said the Demon Sect...what is he really pursuing?"
Xiao Yan turned around and looked at the smart monk, but his face became serious.
"this?"
Huiqi was stunned and miserable, and said, "Then how can I guess?"
"As far as I know, when he was practicing in the Gushan Sword Sect in the Southern Dynasty, you were considered his friend. Although you had no relationship with him after he fled from the Southern Dynasty, but in terms of his understanding of his past, I am afraid that few people can compare to you."
Xiao Yan looked straight into his eyes and said gently: "So you can guess for me, just guess based on your impression, and don't need to consider other people's ideas, including me."
Huiqi sighed in his heart, knowing that if His Majesty the Emperor was interested in, he would really not be able to hide it from him.
"I have been in contact with him for several years. Before going to Gushan Sword Sect to practice, he was not like an ambitious person, but like a scholar who likes to do academic research. But later it seemed that he suddenly changed. He was not just obsessed with practicing, but pursued the improvement of his power. Later, it was said that killing the master and seizing the scriptures caused the Gushan Sword Sect to no longer exist. I don't know whether it is true or false, but I think that if young people were not deeply hatred, they would be so passionate because of love. The dispute between the Northern Dynasty and the Southern Dynasty has been like this since ancient times. Young people are definitely not able to suddenly study one day, and they suddenly wake up, feeling that they would do everything possible to promote the unification of the north and the south, so that millions of people could not be affected by the suffering of war." He looked at Xiao Yan and said.
"No one is a natural saint, even if he is a saint, he is also a human being."
Xiao Yan nodded. He did not judge Huiqi's words, but just frankly expressed his opinion, "People are in different positions and have different views on the world. If a person's ability is still unable to cope with a practitioner in Chengtian Realm, he should not have thought that everything he did at this time was to promote the unification of the north and the south. As for him now becoming a master of the Demon Sect of the Northern Wei Dynasty, he had rebelled from Gushan Sword Sect and went far away to the Northern Wei Dynasty. Then, according to this point, even if he sincerely wanted to return to the Southern Dynasty and ended this war, perhaps it was because of the past, not because he suddenly had the world in his heart, or had completely transcended the world, and was pursuing the way of heaven."
Huiqi looked at the majesty and tranquility between his eyebrows and eyes and knew that he could speak freely. He lowered his head slightly, looked at the thick bamboo leaves under his feet, and said, "Even the Three Saints of the South Heaven are still unavoidable, let alone those who have not reached their realm."
"He Xiuxing never thought of becoming an emperor, so he naturally only looked at things from the perspective of a practitioner. His sanctification comes from his power, so he does not need to consider other people's feelings at all. His actions are purely based on his own preferences and love and hate. Therefore, in his world, there is no tolerance and tolerance, and no compromise."
Xiao Yan smiled faintly and said, "However, governing a country is like water and there is no fish in the clear state. All the people who cannot be disliked will disappear from the world. There is no perfection in all the people in the world. Any dynasty will have cruel officials, Qing history, and warriors who will kill people like mahjong and don't want the war to stop."
Huiqi did not answer the conversation.
Even if he is qualified to judge the concept of being a person and governing the country, he will not judge it.
"In this world, there are always people who have to sacrifice for the overall situation. Compared with the living and working for millions of people, the sacrifice of a very small number of people is worth it." Xiao Yan's smile became stronger, but his expression became gentler. "Today, the Military Department received a letter from General Lin Yi from Tie Ce Army. The content of the letter was to complain for help. But as far as I know, it was not the case. At most, children who know how to worry about have milk. Lin Yi is a disciple of He Xiuxing. In the eyes of the Demon Sect and the people of the world, I naturally don't like it. The more Lin Yi becomes, the more people of the world naturally feel that I can't rest. But what I need most is to govern the country is to check and balance. If the Demon Sect comes here, they naturally need people who fear him."
Huiqi's expression changed drastically. He understood what Xiao Yan meant. Even if He Xiuxing's other disciple had appeared, His Majesty the Emperor would still choose to accept the Demon Sect. As for Lin Yi, His Majesty's previous statements may be his own preferences. He may indeed not like all He Xiuxing's disciples, including Lin Yi, but they just don't like it, but it does not mean that he doesn't show his favor.
"For children, knocking a bamboo stick and giving a candy is what children like. Others can only see the bamboo stick, but they may not see the children eating candy."
Xiao Yan's eyes fell on the bamboos around him.
There is no fixed number of bamboos in this bamboo garden, and they are of different types, but they are all straight and straight, just like swords, exuding a slight scent that is unfamiliar.
"He Xiuxing has no circumcision or tolerance at all. Look at the huge bamboo garden, no one has cleaned it for many years, but there is not even a weed."
Xiao Yan moved forward and walked to the wall. He stopped and looked at a corner of the wall. Huiqi followed his gaze and understood why he stopped here.
There is only a half-dead wild rose in that corner.
It’s not just that it happens that this bamboo garden does adhere to some will and great means of He Xiuxing. On the side of the wild rose, a few thin bamboo shoots are growing obliquely, as if they want to cut off the last living space of this wild rose that is struggling to survive.
"This bamboo garden will be changed to Tongtai Temple from today, so you can come here to preside over it." Xiao Yan's voice sounded again, Huiqi was startled, but at this moment, he felt an extra soft but powerful aura flowing out of His Majesty the Emperor.
The wild rose suddenly became vibrant, a breath and brilliance that he could not understand, flowing out from the wild rose.
Huiqi's order.
It was not until this time that he realized that His Majesty the Emperor was not only a powerful practitioner, but also a powerful practitioner far beyond his imagination.
Therefore, the so-called courage and methods that ordinary people cannot understand come from their own height and realm.
"Lin Yi is too young, but Lin Wangbei should understand."
