"Senior brother, in the land of Jiangnan, if nothing else... this road is very good."
"We went south from Songhai, traveling with cars and boats all the way. Almost all important roads of this width were built... but some roads turned farther away."
"But we can also see what Jiangnan looks like today. In less than five years, this wild and remote place has undergone such changes."
"The place we stayed in Nanchang a few days ago is no less prosperous and prosperous than the major cities in Xia. The Marquis Xuan Qingzi of Wuzhen County is really talented in governing the world!"
"Ying Zheng is really trusting of him. The land south of the Yangtze River is not inferior to the Central Plains in terms of vastness. The governor-general has jurisdiction over several counties and can also mobilize the troops south of the Yangtze River."
"I remember when the three Jin lands fell one after another, many remaining people wanted to go to the deep jungles of Jiangnan to escape. Now... all of them have made up household records."
"Some of them have either left."
"Some have stabilized."
"Zhao Guo!"
"After the Qin Dynasty unified the world and promulgated the official text, it will be much more difficult for us to pass on the glory of the Zhao Kingdom in the past."
"There are some people at Xiaoshengxian Village who have complained.
Jiangnan!
What is Jiangnan?
South of the river, south of the river!
Today, there are many counties in the south of the Yangtze River, including Dian County, Xiang County, Guilin County, Nanhai County, Changsha County, Lujiang County, Kuaiji County...
Unless the land south of the Yangtze River is vast and sparsely populated, otherwise the troops would have crossed Annan and reached the depths of the South China Sea, extending over thousands of miles.
To the west of Jiangnan, from the Hengduan Mountains, it is not difficult to move forward, so go as a vanguard! To the east... you are naturally on the verge of the endless sea.
Lujiang County!
To the south, in the land of Taihe, the terrain here is flat and gentle, with no high mountains and rapids on the left and right, and there is no good place within two hundred miles of it.
Therefore, in the land of Nanchang, this place was directly designated as a city to gather people in the surrounding area.
Immigration, building cities, opening fields, building roads, etc.
Outside Taihe City, there are straight and wide roads built by the people who conquered this place over the past few years.
With water and stone, combined with a small amount of people, it is enough to build an important road within a radius of two to three hundred miles in Taihe.
Apart from anything else, they have no other corvées!
Therefore, it was built very quickly.
In this way, each city has its own roads connected according to the planning of Nanchang. Looking down, a criss-crossing road network appears in the main areas of the Jiangnan counties.
As long as you don't go deep into some high mountains and rivers, there are important roads to follow.
In another five years, the road network will be even more detailed.
In another ten years, it will be even more perfect.
On a late autumn day, it was mostly cool in the south of the Yangtze River. A slightly wider carriage was traveling on the road south of Taihe.
Driving out of the city of Taihe, the road became increasingly quiet, but occasionally I saw farmers working on newly reclaimed fields in the distance.
You can also occasionally see some caravans. There are many specialties in the south of the Yangtze River, whether it is wood, fruits, or grains... they can all be used.
At this moment, the sound of Taoist discourse flowed out from the carriage.
"Ying Zheng is about to patrol eastward, so the land of Qilu must be prepared."
"Mo Family!"
"farmhouse!"
"They are already weak and on the verge of collapse. Confucianism... is also in great danger. The last time Ying Zheng visited the east, if Confucianism had not made a decisive decision and abandoned many people, they would have suffered."
"This time... it will be even more dangerous."
"But it is also an opportunity. If we survive this, Confucianism will be much more stable."
"Junior sister, it would be a good idea for us to take this opportunity to travel to the south of the Yangtze River. Wan'er, what do you think?"
"According to our itinerary, we can reach the city of Lufeng in at most half a month. I heard that the winter there is very mild, not as cold as Songhai!"
"We will go back after Ying Zheng's eastward patrol leaves."
The carriage is pulled by a strong and fat horse. The speed is neither fast nor slow. It is not difficult to walk a hundred miles in a day.
The man who controls the horse is a young man who looks to be in his thirties or forties. He is wearing a light gray long gown, with his hair tied up in a crown, looking quite casual.
Holding a riding crop in his hand, he sometimes raised it and sometimes lowered it, but he felt very at ease.
The front curtain is rolled up, and two women in the car are playing around. Looking at them, one big and one small. The big one has heroic eyebrows and bright eyes. She is wearing a horse bun and pulls the little one into her arms.
middle.
"Mother, brother Tianming... I have some impressions, but I haven't seen him for a long time."
The little vanilla man with white teeth and red lips, no more than four or five years old, nestled in his mother's arms, hearing his father's words, his clear and pure eyes flashed with a trace of expectation.
Brother Tianming, I haven’t seen him for a long time.
In my memory, there is Brother Tianming, but it was Brother Tianming who left Little Saint Xian Manor for several years. At that time... I was still very young.
"You can see it later."
"Back then, you liked to play around with Tianming. A few years later, I don't know what happened to your brother Tianming. Judging from the rumors... he is still very good."
"Mo Family!"
"Those people are not well-intentioned. Senior brother, what do you think the Mo family will do when the ten-year period is up?"
Caressing the little girl's silky hair, the heroic woman spoke affectionately, "It's been great to have her by my side these past few years."
"Mo Family!"
"No matter whether things succeed in the future or whether the Qin State will still exist in the future, it will be very difficult for the Mohists to recreate the great academic events of the past."
"In the land of Lufeng, from some rumors from Songhai and Tianming's letters, we can know that many people live and work in peace and contentment."
"When the ten-year period is up, some Mohists may leave, but I think there will be more Mohist disciples who will not leave."
"Even if the Mohist disciples choose to leave, they will definitely think of a perfect plan. As long as Tianming is around, nothing will happen to them."
"Without Tianming, if they left Lu Feng, the outcome would be hard to say."
"I also heard from Head Fu Nian that someone in the Mo family recommended Tianming as the tycoon, but fortunately... Tianming refused."
"If it weren't for Yan Dan and Ruoshui, Tianming wouldn't have paid any attention to or interfered with the Mo family's affairs."
"Yan Dan!"
"He can be regarded as a great man of his generation, but it's a pity... that he has bad luck."
"Fortunately, if the water is good, everything will be fine. Now I am practicing in Yahu Xiaozhu."
"After we leave Lufeng, why don't we go to Yahu Xiaozhu to have a look? This girl Wan'er... has pretty good qualifications."
"Ji Yanran is a great talent among all. Whether it is the Tao of various schools of thought or her own cultivation, she is at the forefront among all the women in Xia Jian."
The man leaned on the carriage and looked back at the little girl. His eyes were full of smiles. The Mo family's affairs... were difficult.
At that time, the Wuzhen County Marquis established a ten-year deadline, and the plan was the same.
For one thing, it can be a good way to expand to the south of the Yangtze River.
Secondly, it can also keep some people under surveillance forever. Not surprisingly, there must be many spies in the land of Lufeng.
As long as those Mohist disciples make any movements, they will definitely be known.
And dawn!
Since he refused to become a Mohist tycoon, he will not become a Mohist tycoon in the future. His kindness to the Mohist family is already great.
On the night when Guancheng was destroyed, the Mo family was completely destroyed.
For hundreds of years, the Mohist family has been adhering to the principles of benevolence and righteousness, and there should be no such forced demands. What's more, Tianming has grown up now.
He is not the ignorant young man he once was.
Whether it is cultivation or knowledge, he is much better than he was back then. He will make the wisest decision. Moreover, instead of worrying about that, it is better to focus more on Wan'er.
"Ruoshui, I haven't seen him since Lanling City."
"She must be in a good place now, and her cultivation... will definitely not be bad."
"Wan'er!"
"It would be great if we could be taught by Ji Yanran."
"Senior brother, how is your current practice? Is it going well?"
"How long will it take for you to realize your emptiness and return to great achievements?"
"Why did Master Xun practice so quickly? Do you think... he is really not far away from joining the Way and returning to his original state?"
Waner!
Speaking of which, as father and mother, their inheritance is not bad, and it is enough to teach Wan'er, but... I'm afraid there will be pampering and doting from time to time, which will damage Wan'er's practice.
And staying under Ji Yanran's knees, Ruoshui is the precedent.
Ji Yanran knows almost everything that the two of them know, especially since Ji Yanran has his own unique skills. From a long-term perspective, it would be better to become his disciple before Ji Yanran.
It can also avoid some troubles in the future.
Ji Yanran's identity... is pretty good.
Holding the little girl in her arms, the heroic woman's mind was moving, the true method was running in her body, and the crystal light surged on the surface of her skin.
Practice!
You can already practice on your own!
He has already recovered his former strength, but it is a bit difficult to take a step further. The realm that his senior brother has comprehended cannot be comprehended by himself.
In this life, it is difficult to step into the void and come back.
But he doesn't care, having a senior brother is enough.
It’ll be good if your senior brother’s practice goes well. As he said this, he mentioned one person for no reason. Master Xun from Little Saint Xian Manor was still... unfathomable.
His injuries... were caused by him personally sorting out his meridians.
Originally, I had the intention of letting Master Xun teach Wan'er. After all...back at Little Saint Xian Manor, I could see that Master Xun still liked Wan'er very much.
But he was stopped by his senior brother.
"Master Xun!"
"Staying in the perfect state of divine transformation for more than fifty years is naturally extraordinary. If he wanted to break through, he would have broken through long ago."
"After the former head of Confucianism, Duke Duzi, passed away, he had no choice but to break through to the realm of enlightenment. After decades of accumulation and knowledge, the truth has long been clear."
"Even if Master Xun has now entered the realm of Hedao, it is normal."
"Every time I discuss Taoism with Master Xun, I benefit a lot."
"Master Xun, I think he will not be inferior to that legendary Confucian man, and may even surpass him!"
The man sighed!
Every time I discuss Taoism with Master Xun, I feel like I am standing still on a high mountain.
I had a wonderful enlightenment of Haoran, and I used my spiritual awareness to break through and realize the emptiness and return. Then the vitality of heaven and earth tempered my physical body, and my origin was flawless and perfect. In recent years... I have gradually practiced faster.
Master Xun!
His practice seems to be different every day.
In the entire Little Saint Xian Manor, I am afraid that no one except myself knows Master Xun's true level of strength now.
No!
Even if I am myself, I can only feel a general state of mind.
After realizing his emptiness and returning to this level, Master Xun has most likely reached Consummation, and will even go a step further in the near future.
"Brother, do you think... Master Xun will be even more amazing than Meng Kezi in the future?"
"Is this...possible?"
The woman suddenly looked surprised.
For hundreds of years, the most legendary person in Confucianism is naturally Meng Kezi!
He single-handedly pushed Confucianism to its peak.
During his time, among hundreds of schools of thought, the only one who could discuss Taoism with him was the Taoist Zhuang Zhouzi. Judging from the recorded results of three days of discussing Taoism.
Perhaps inferior to Zhuang Zhouzi.
If we talk about the names of hundreds of schools of thought, Meng Kezi is unparalleled and not comparable to Zhuang Zhouzi.
Senior brother said that Master Xun's future practice and principles will not be inferior to Meng Kezi's? This is really incredible.
Meng Kezi was a direct follower of the Confucian Confucian Confucius, and the disciples under Confucius also eclipsed Meng Kezi's attainments in doctrine.
"You rarely read Xunfuzi's chapters on language, right?"
The man shook his head helplessly.
He put down the riding crop in his hand and took the little girl from her mother's arms. It was time for him to be intimate for a while.
"This..., I still know something about it."
The woman rolled her eyes at someone. She spent most of her time taking care of Wan'er, so she had no time to read books. Even if she read... most of them were classics from the Zhao Kingdom.
At that time, Xingcheng Library had mostly classics.
I also choose some books I like to read from the library.
"It is so profound and profound that no time can submerge it."
"Compared with some chapters left by Meng Kezi, it is not bad at all."
"Confucianism!"
"The torrent of Confucianism and Taoism, the eight strands of Confucianism, and the descendants of the eight strands, mostly stick to one corner, but Meng Kezi has read the essence of hundreds of schools of thought, and is more connected to the world!"
"Han Fei, the great Korean talent that Ying Zheng admired back then, was a proud disciple of Master Xun."
"The same is true for Li Si, the central and important official of the Qin State."
"It's a pity...it doesn't agree with my principles, but it's okay to learn from it."
The man admired.
Praise abounds.
He is definitely another unparalleled great master of Confucianism since Meng Kezi, who is enough to create a whole family of scholars of his own.
"Senior brother, how complimentary are you?"
"Since Master Xun's teachings are so essential, why are there so few people practicing and talking about them in Xiaoshengxian Village?"
The woman retorted.
My family has lived in Xiaoshengxianzhuang for several years, and many things are clear to me. Master Xun's status in Confucianism is certainly extraordinary.
However, Master Xun's teachings are just average among the Confucian sages, and they are not very prominent, and not many people even practice them.
"Haha, didn't you notice?"
"Don't worry."
"There are treasures in the family. Although the light is obscured now, when the time comes, it will naturally shine brightly."
"As for the Confucian Little Sage's Village, maybe... in the future, the Little Sage's Village will have the same ending as the Xingcheng Library."
"Sure enough, Confucianism is really in extreme danger, and Master Xun will not just sit idly by."
Holding the little girl in my arms, holding her white and tender hands, I felt a sense of satisfaction and happiness. Master Xun's principles... will not be overwhelmed by time.
"Ying Zheng patrols east!"
"His eastward tour this time must have caused a lot of noise. Senior brother, I don't know why, in recent years, as Wan'er has grown up day by day, my desire to restore the country has become much weaker."
"I don't want this."
"But... I don't know what to do."
Observing the intimacy between the senior brother and Wan'er, the woman's valiant and heroic face also showed a slight smile, and she raised her hand to smooth the senior brother's hair.
Then lean on it gently and stay by your senior brother's side, which is always so peaceful and peaceful.
Restoration!
Rebuild Xingcheng Library!
It is the biggest wish in my heart, and I have been carrying it out secretly for many years. Otherwise, I would not have been working hard to inherit the glory of the Zhao Kingdom.
Now..., have you changed?
I don't want this.
Every time I think of the ruined Xingcheng Library, and every time I think of the message that Zhao Guo was summoned, I feel a little sad in my heart.
"The Xia are unified under the Qin State, and the future situation is unknown!"
"Junior sister, your thoughts are not just yours. There are many people in Zhuxia who have that kind of thoughts. Restoration of the country?"
"It takes time and opportunity."
"Let's take a look."
"Sure enough, the war started again, Wan'er..., that's all, let's not mention that."
The man stretched out his hand and hugged the junior sister beside him. He had always known what the junior sister was thinking, but... he couldn't stop it.
The world!
All the summers in the world!
When I achieved great success, I realized that it is not important who is in the world, what is more important is the people of the world.
After the restoration of the country, can the new King Zhao govern his subjects better?
Hard to say.
The current governance of Qin State is... quite impressive.
Moreover, as expected, if the Qin State continues to be governed in this way, it seems that there will be no major problems in the world, and many people will not have a chance.
I hope to see it myself.
Sure enough, there will be big problems in the Qin State in the future and the world will be in turmoil. Perhaps, Junior Sister's opportunity will come.
That day?
Who knows?
"Wan'er!"
"She will be fine!"
The woman spent her whole life in a light mood, no longer talking much, smiling, reviving the country, Xingcheng Library..., her heart was constantly intertwined, and she really didn't know what to do.
As a mother, I naturally hope that everything will go well for Wan'er, and there will be no suffering or danger. I hope that Wan'er will live in a time without war.
As a Zhao native, I am a member of Xingcheng Library.
But I hope to recreate everything back then.
Senior brother is right, let’s take a look.
As expected, there is no chance, nothing can be said.
Wan'er is also good!
If given the opportunity, I won't give up!
Wan'er, if she grows up in time, she should do her part as Zhao people!
