Chapter 268: Entering the DPRK
Overall, Wang Ningzhi is a modern person. Even if he has faith, he will not be a noble emperor. Tianlai Novel | 2
What's more, people are ultimately limited to their bodies. Even if they have unlimited potential, they will not know everything and make plans. Even if the emperor is working hard to govern and loves the people, it is impossible. On the contrary, the emperor is a sick man with a mind full of immortality and his mind is so strong that his government is controlled by the empress dowager. Wang Ningzhi has no awe for such a person, but he still instinctively brings respectful praise. For him, this is just an instinct to seek profit and avoid harm. Even if he uses respectful words, he will not feel that this sick man is better than him.
The sick man in his eyes is now at stake, but it is the truth.
Some time ago, Sima Yi, the king of Langya, resigned as the chief official of Kuaiji County and returned to the court to deal with it. This was equivalent to giving more power in the court and separating power. Of course, the most important thing is that once the emperor dies, Sima Yi will be sent to the throne because he has no descendants.
Sima Yi was the most critical person in the court.
But soon, the attention to him became weaker, which turned into attention to a college, or a speech at the opening ceremony of the academy.
The already stagnant "Northern Expedition" dispute was once again thrown to the table.
...
On the third day of the September 19th year of Xingning, the second year of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, autumn.
Light rain.
The fog and rain cover the majestic Jiankang City. There were not many pedestrians on the road. They seemed to feel the extraordinary today. Even the trees that were still green bent and beaten by raindrops. The green color was dyed gray. The temples and Taoist temples were hidden in the mist, blurry and seemed to be no different from ordinary houses. The path ***** moss was also trampled, and a pool of sewage accumulated in the depressions.
A group of knights ran into the city from the north gate. The horse's hooves were raised and they fell to the ground hard. The sludge was sputtered around as if it was burst.
The person on the horse's back was wearing a straw raincoat, walking against the wind, the cold wind hitting his face, and the straw hat shook violently, revealing the strong cheeks inside.
It is not the fairness and tenderness of the noble man, but the vicissitudes of the wind and sun.
The picture just flashed and the North City Gate closed again.
Half an hour later, all the families stationed in Jiankang City received news: "Huan Yuanzi (Huan Wen's name)... have entered the court again."
...
What happened to the imperial court was that even the residents of Jiankang City who lived at the foot of the palace could not be said.
I only knew that Huan Wen entered the palace and the major power figures became nervous. This was something I could hear and feel, because from the big streets and alleys to the small grass and trees, it seemed that I could feel the tension this time.
The entire city, the city bathed in the mist and rain, was swaying slightly, just like the essence, with the imperial palace as the center, exploded and extended in all directions, Danyang County, Guangling County; Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Youzhou; Liyang County, Qiao County, Yingchuan County, Liang County, Xiangcheng County; Yuzhou, Jiangzhou, Jingzhou, Ningzhou; Yixing County, Wu County, Wuxing County, Kuaiji County... swept through most of the earthquakes in Jiangnan.
Everyone can sense and deliberately avoid Wang Ningzhi.
It has been about one-tenth of the school since the start of school, and the general situation of the academy is basically stable. The teaching content is formulated by the teacher himself. You only need to give Wang Ningzhi a general view, because all the people who teach are famous teachers, so that poor families often come to take classes.
It seems that the earthquake did not affect them, eating, studying, playing, sleeping, regular and healthy habits are being cultivated.
This is the normal phenomenon: dynasty changes, political changes, military conquests, and what does it have to do with the people and children below? Even in the eyes of many famous scholars, it is just a lie. However, Wang Ningzhi is often stunned and thinking about whether he has changed history or not, but it is not harmful. In this case, it is normal to change history, and it is understandable not to change...
However, I have paid some attention. In the past two days, I have received letters from Jiankang City, some trivial matters from the governor's mansion, and letters from Huan Wen, Wang family and other close families. Most of them are inquiry. Only Huan Wen will talk about some of the difficulties we are facing now and ask Wang Ningzhi. Even if it is unintentional and does not value it, it is a deliberate attitude.
As Wang Ningzhi speculated, it was roughly like this: Huan Wen entered the court and asked for another northern expedition. Other aristocratic families became nervous because of the Wang family's side. Most of the powerful figures entered the court. In just a few days, the court discussed several times. The bull-holders attacked each other and argued. The scene was mostly chaotic, but the basic situation was formed. The addition of the Wang family made the balance between the already evenly matched the two.
Wang Ningzhi answered a few roughly, although most of them were vague remarks, but they also hid some clear views, which should be helpful...
However, Wang Ningzhi no longer paid attention.
"No matter what government decree is issued by the court, it will not affect this place. Duke Huan's troops are stationed in Zheqi, and his military equipment is improved long ago. All he needs is an order, which involves the interests of the people there. Don't worry about it."
He was in class, which was considered an open class. Eighty-one students, more than a dozen attendees, as well as famous scholars, famous monks who came to listen to the class, made the classroom a little crowded.
"Okay, please calm down. What I want to talk about today is some doctrines about the Five Doks of Rice Path Evolutionary School. It was considered that Master Zheng Qingfeng of Qixia Temple entrusted me to talk about it. Most of them are general things, but they can also allow preliminary people to further understand how the evolutionary school is distinguished from other sects..."
His voice was loud, not deliberately, like a speech, scattered everywhere, through the window, and spread out to the classroom.
Outside the classroom, two beauties, one big and one small, stood quietly under the eaves, with a comfortable smile on the corner of their mouths, and silently listening to the sound inside, as if this was also a kind of enjoyment.
Suddenly, a servant walked in, surrounded him and saw the two of them, and hurriedly came over.
"What's wrong, a good harvest?"
"When will Erlang finish his talk about the matter in Qiantang?"
"I'll give it to me later, I'll hand it over to Langjun at that time." Yu Nanzi reached out to take the Fengcheng document and waved his hand.
The harvest is retreating.
"Unlike the Shangqing School, it does not care about its origins, does not focus on learning talismans... Instead, it is mainly used to treat diseases and save people, mainly to investigate things, cultivate one's own character, and help the world... Or, the gods respected by the Evolution School are gods of faith and gods of luck..."
Wang Ningzhi's voice was still faint, calm.
Yu Nanzi opened the document, glanced at the words on it, and saw Yu Yao's lips curled up slightly:
“It’s interesting.”
