Chapter 749 Power and reason, name and device (seeking subscription monthly pass)

"Wait, who are you?"

"What qualifications do you have to issue orders here?"

Suddenly someone shouted.

"Yes, why should we listen to you!"

It was only then that everyone realized that this person was very strange, and he was clearly not like a person in the rivers, lakes and green forests, but like a literati and Confucian scholar, who was incompatible with the people on the top of the Thousand Buddhas.

Venerable Mie Ming stood up at this moment: "Everyone, please be safe and don't be impatient. This is a famous scholar in Yangzhou, Wang Jiexin."

"It is valued by all of you, and we gather on the top of the Thousand Buddhas, but we are people from other places after all. For the well-being of the common people in the world, we have no choice but to enter the world of mortals,"

"In order not to ruin your important events, we really need a person of insight to preside over the event on our behalf,"

"Mr. Jiexin is a famous scholar in Yangzhou, and everyone in the world praises 'Wang Zuozhi',"

"No matter who can hold the sword this time, if they can get the help of Mr. Jiexin, they will be like a tiger with wings added, like a dragon with water, and take advantage of the time to soar high in the sky, calling the wind and making clouds, it's no problem."

The people on the top of the Thousand Buddhas have not reacted yet. After all, most of the people here are warriors from the rivers and lakes, green forests, and even bandits. How did they know about Yangzhou celebrities?
But in the Palace of the King of Chu, many people exclaimed.

Even the king of Chu couldn't help but ask sideways: "Wang Jiexin? But that 'Wang Zuo' Wang Jiexin from the Wang family back then?"

One person came out and said: "His Royal Highness, it is this person. I have also met this person once. Although it has been a long time, they can still be recognized."

Everyone in the hall couldn't help being surprised.

This Wang Jiexin is no stranger to them.

This person was originally the concubine of the Jiangdu royal family, and he was not taken seriously. It was said that he was quite bullied, but at the Longhua Conference, he won the attention of the emperor with a piece of "Fu on the Lord" at the Longhua Conference. He stayed by his side and listened to him. Ji's praise of "Wang Zuo" has become famous since then.

Originally thought that this person should have won the trust of Emperor Ji, and since then he has been on the rise.

But not long after, news spread that he molested the princess of the dynasty and was accused by Diji and sent to prison.

Later, Emperor Ji cherished his talents, but in the end he didn't kill him and sent him out of Beijing.

It has been more than ten years, but I don't know how this person appeared here?
"The so-called foundation of virtue is permanent, but the road to meritorious service is different."

In the courtyard, the cadenced voice of Wang Jiexin was being heard.

"Gong is impermanent, and success is due to encounter."

"The lord of the people occupies the position of supreme respect, holding the power of life and death. Use his usual authority, and the world obeys his integrity."

"It's not to strengthen the world with strength, but to help with Dao..."

"Hey! What kind of nonsense are you talking about? We are all rough, if we don't understand this, just say it directly, what do you want to do?"

What Wang Jiexin said was a rare high-spirited speech in the ears of the people in the King's Palace of Chu. They were listening intently, but they were suddenly interrupted.

They couldn't help frowning, and secretly scolded these people for being illiterate and illiterate, and they didn't know it when they got such a kingly theory.

So you still want to do great things?
Just a joke!
There are indeed not many people on the top of the Thousand Buddhas who can understand Wang Jiexin's words.

Don't listen to what you say, there are not many people who can listen patiently.

Seeing the commotion of the crowd, Wang Jiexin was not annoyed, stopped his long speech, and said directly:
"The meaning is very simple. All of you gather here because you want to compete and become the hero of the party."

"But being a hero doesn't just depend on strength."

Someone shouted: "What do you rely on if you don't rely on strength? If my fist is big enough and I have enough soldiers, who dares to refuse, I will kill him until he is convinced!"

Wang Jiexin smiled dumbly and said: "This hero is right. To do great things, big enough fists and enough soldiers are indispensable."

"Isn't that enough? Why are you talking so much nonsense?" The man smiled triumphantly.

Wang Jiexin shook his head and said with a smile: "If you want big fists, you can practice martial arts. Therefore, the word for this strength lies in yourself."

"I just dare to ask this hero, if you want to have more soldiers and more generals, and have all the virtuous ministers, how can you do it?"

"This……"

The man froze for a moment.

Wang Jiexin smiled, ignored him, turned to the crowd and said, "As the saying goes, a teacher should be famous, even if you want to beat me, you have to give a name, otherwise, who can be convinced? Wouldn't it be a joke to spread it out? A hero?"

"This is what Wang wants to say. In the name of righteousness, where does righteousness come from? Righteousness comes from reason. When the reason makes sense, there is righteousness."

Someone shouted: "Hey, isn't it just bragging? This old man is good at it!"

Wang Jiexin laughed and said, "Hehe, it's not unreasonable for this hero to say so."

"What Wang said, this time holding the sword for four passes..."

He paused for a moment, and then said seriously: "The two words of force and reason are the second."

Everyone frowned, chewing on these two words, and someone asked: "Then what else?"

Wang Jiexin said with a smile: "Strength and reason are the foundation of meritorious service. Everyone has come to join, but it is not enough. You must have the ability to maintain this foundation. These two hurdles are to prove it."

He seemed to know that these big bosses couldn't understand these words, he glanced around, and suddenly said: "Everyone, if you saw a deer running without an owner in the middle of the city, would you chase it?"

Someone shouted: "Naturally! Since there is no owner, don't want it for nothing!"

Wang Jie said: "If this deer is sold by a merchant, will you chase after it?"

The man said: "That can't be done. Although we are not good people, we can't just grab people's things!"

Most people also nodded in agreement.

"What this hero said is true, and I think everyone agrees with it."

Wang Jiexin said with a smile: "They are all deer, why do you only chase the deer instead of taking the deer?"

"This is the reason for 'name'."

"When a deer goes away, hundreds of people chase after it. Not all people can get the deer, because the name of the deer has not been determined, but if the deer is sold in the market, even if it is stolen, it is not dare to take it. It is precisely because the name of the deer has been determined, it is a property of the owner. .”

Wang Jiexin laughed and said: "As the saying goes, fame is based on faith, and faith is guarded by weapons."

"The choice of a virtuous master is nothing more than to seek to survive in the world, or to make contributions, or to leave a name in history, or, to have enough food, for gold and silver money..."

"This is fame and utensils. Names, ranks, gold and silver... It varies from person to person. If you can get what people need, there will naturally be people who will work for you."

"Although it sounds a bit vulgar, this is the way to build morality and keep business."

"Therefore, the two characters of name and device are the other two levels."

In the palace of King Chu.

All the ministers looked at each other with admiration on their faces.

Chu Wangdao: "This Wang Jiexin is worthy of the name of 'Wang Zuo'. This theory of strength, reason, name, and utensils is indeed insightful."

He looked around His Highness: "As far as I know, Jiangdu Shi, Zhu, Wang, and Xie's four families have all returned to Yingdu. They are so virtuous, why are they living outside?"

"Your Highness does not know that this Wang Jiexin has always been at odds with the Wang family, and he is quite narrow-minded. When he was with His Majesty, he criticized the Wang family a lot. After the disaster, he disappeared and never returned to the Wang family."

The King of Chu nodded, and suddenly looked at Jiang Zhou: "Jiang Zhou, what do you think of what Wang Jiexin said about building morality and keeping careers?"
