Chapter 135
After Xia ping ‘an finished his sentence, the ship was silent. However, the expression on the Marquis of Wei’s face was greatly touched, ” according to Wu Qing, what is the virtue of the country? ”
“The virtue of a country lies in the hearts of the people, in the four words, courtesy, justice, integrity, and shame. Honesty and shame were the two most important elements of a person. Gai Bulian would take anything, and he would do anything. When people were like this, disaster and death would happen everywhere. As long as there are ministers who do everything, there will be chaos in the world, and if the country has no shame, will there be people who will not die?”
When Xia Pingan said this, he felt a little emotional in his heart. All the disasters that the Chinese nation would face in the future would be brought about by the collapse of their values, etiquette, and honor. And the collapse of these values basically began from the ruling class and the scholars.
The last sentence was not said by Wuqi, nor was it invented by himself. Courtesy, righteousness, integrity, and shame were first said by Guan Zi. Guan Zi listed it as the four dimensions of the country, which were the four dimensions and standards of national values. Later, it was the fifth generation of Feng Dao who explained the relationship between it and the rise and fall of the country.
“Wu Qing’s words of great kindness can be used to rule a country for thousands of years!” The Marquis of Wei praised.
The officials on the ship looked around. One of them saw Xia ping ‘an standing in the limelight, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He said indignantly, ” what you said is quite good, Lord Wu. I just don’t know where your sense of propriety, justice, and shame were when you abandoned your mother and killed your wife in order to gain fame and a future? ”
The Marquis of Wei saw someone bringing up Wu Qi’s old wounds and looked at the Minister with slight displeasure, ” Wu Qing is a great talent. Wei and Lu did not know how to cherish such a great talent and let the Pearl be covered in dust. This is the reason for the decline of these two countries!
Seeing that the Marquis of Wei was speaking up for Wuqi and giving him a way out, the Minister quickly bowed and backed away, not daring to say anything more.
Looking at the scenery by the river, Xia ping ‘an sighed in his heart. Wu Qi was a talented and ruthless man. However, Wu Qi’s ambition and desire for fame were too strong. He abandoned his mother and killed his wife. A proud Dragon was filled with regret. His entire life, he had wandered around the world. In the end, he escaped from Wei and did not have a good ending in Chu. With the death of King Shao of Chu, Wu Qi welcomed the end of his life.
Wu Qi had made great contributions to the Chu country. However, he was eventually killed by the Chu country’s aristocrats who bore grudges against him. Wu Qi had been constantly on the move for his entire life in pursuit of achievements. In the end, he was buried by the achievements he pursued. The ending that the heavens had arranged for him was truly a sad one.
In this chaotic world, with thousands of years of hegemony, hundreds of schools of thought fighting for supremacy, heroes and Dragons fighting each other, the will of the heavens was clear and the cause and effect was not false, which was really awe-inspiring.
Xia ping ‘an was silent for a moment and looked at the people on the ship. in this world of war, it’s natural for a man to pursue success. However, abandoning my mother and killing my wife is my life’s regret. I’m not worthy of being a son and not worthy of being a husband. Every time I think about it, I regret it. If I could start over, I’d rather be an ordinary man of the state of Wei than let my mother and wife down. If I have to sacrifice my loved ones in exchange for the success of a man, it’s fine if I don’t have a good end in the future, I’ll be punished by God. I hope that the future generations can take me as a lesson.
Hearing Xia ping ‘an’s words, everyone on the ship looked at each other. The Marquis of Wei was moved once again. No one had expected that the headstrong Wuqi would actually reveal his true feelings at this time and say such touching and sincere words.
The world of the realm Pearl shattered instantly!
The realm Pearl had fused too quickly!
In the shrine of the secret altar, he gained 15 points of divine power and a picture of Wuqi and the Marquis of Wei on the ship.
When Xia ping ‘an’s consciousness looked at the portrait, Wu Qi in the portrait moved. Wu Qi’s face was filled with sorrow. He seemed to sigh as he bowed to Xia ping’ an.
Next to Wuqi’s portrait was the portrait that Xia Pingan had obtained after fusing with the divine power realm bead. One of the portraits was of Sima Guang withdrawing the Qilin. It was about Song Renzong’s later years, when the kingdom of Jiaozhi offered a ” Qilin ” to the great song but was returned by Sima Guang. The other portrait was of Emperor Han Wen wearing straw shoes to the palace for work.
These were two historical allusions, and they had easily fused together before.
Xia Pingan opened his eyes and looked at the time. It had only been less than three minutes since he had fused with this realm Pearl.
Immediately after, Xia Pingan took out the second realm Pearl-civil unrest.
Those who were familiar with Chinese history would probably know this story. It was about the time of King Li of Zhou. The idiom ” the purpose of the road ” came from this period. King Li of Zhou was insatiable. He changed the entire country’s mountains, forests, lakes, and ponds to be directly controlled and managed by the Emperor. Everything that came out belonged to the Emperor. He did not allow the people to enter to make a living. At the same time, he also implemented a Special Agent rule-” ordering Wei, Wu, and Jian to slander “, forcing everyone to ” follow the road “. In the end, it caused all the people of Gaojing to unite and rebel. It forced Zhou Liwang to escape from Haojing to Linfen, Shanxi, and never dared to return to Haojing.
Because of this ” rebellion, ” the first period in China’s history with a ” Republic ” as its name appeared. It was known as the ” Zhou Zhao Republic ” in history.
This riot was the beginning of the People’s rise in power to defend their rights.
I wonder if we can rewrite history this time and ambush Prince Li of Zhou during the rebellion in Haojing. We’ll take the life of that fatuous King! As Xia Pingan thought about it, he took a deep breath and began to drip his blood.
......
In the next few days, everything was as usual at Mount yunwan. Just as Xia Pingan had expected, after the troops announced that a demonic Wolf sorcerer had sneaked into the base and was killed, it did not cause too much panic among the people in the base.
For the people in the base, they had been trained by the heavenly Tribulation and various space invasions. Their nerves had long been extremely strong. A killed demon Wolf magician was forgotten by the people in a few days.
The snow had not ended.
The valley and the roads outside were sealed by the snow. The snow was getting thicker and thicker, and the monsters had completely disappeared.
The realm Pearl of the People’s riot merged perfectly again. However, they still failed to kill Prince Li of Zhou and let him escape. The history in the realm Pearl did not change.
Xia ping ‘an also had a rare few days of rest. In these few days, Xia ping’ an had been making runic ammunition when he was free, or sparring with tu Poli and the others, or having hotpot.
After a few peaceful days, a group of more than 2000 refugees came to the base at Mt. Yunwan along the road.
The arrival of this batch of refugees broke the peace of Mt. Cloud Bay base and brought a lot of chaos. The supplies in the base, especially food, started to become scarce.
Finally, one day, in order to fight for food and shelter, the newcomers and the people who had come here before fired a shot in the town.
Three people died and five people were injured.
This gunshot not only broke the peace at Mount yunwan, but it also ended Xia Pingan’s short ‘holiday’.
