Can you live forever

Chapter 423 Knowing that I have sinned against me, it is only the Spring and Autumn

"The hearts of the people in Jiangnan are Xu Jie's golden body. How can we deal with Xu Jie?"

"You can't be passively beaten."

The problem of last night, they are still thinking about it the next day. Zhang Zhixiang is sitting by the river fishing, and Fu Youyu has led the villagers to build dozens of fishing platforms, with sunshade sheds, couch chairs, tea stands and so on.

You can drink tea while fishing.

Of course, professionals do not fish lying down.

Zhang Zhixiang was sitting on the fishing platform, very serious in his posture, but he was not so much fishing as feeding the fish. The hooks were all flat, and he just hung the bait to wait for the fish to eat, he never pulled the rod.

Lighting the fishing rod casually, Zhang Zhixiang said: "There is no good way. At this point, only time can tell the truth."

"But if the time does not reach that time, we can only force it."

"Xu Jie is a saint in the hearts of the people in the south of the Yangtze River, and I am also the national teacher of Daming."

When Zhang Zhixiang said this, Wang Jiangque understood his plan and couldn't help asking, "Do you want to learn from Confucius?"

"Well, Confucius punished Shaozhengmao and killed his corpse for three days."

"If you force it, are you sure?"

Wang Jiangque was a little worried. Knowing that Xu Jie was the incarnation of the White Snake, and knowing the essence of the White Snake, he knew how terrifying it was. If there was no suppression from the general situation, and Xu Jie was not defeated first from the system and people's hearts, he could really kill him. snake?
"I have a deal with Xu Hai."

Zhang Zhixiang took the pole and hung the bait, and continued to throw the pole and said: "Starting with Ibrahim, it is not difficult to take down the Ottoman Empire. The problem is that Xiluozhou is under the shadow of the black dragon. They are stubborn, ignorant, and superstitious."

"The brilliance of fairness cannot shine there, and the resistance of the people of Xiluozhou will lead to a stagnation of progress."

"The only way is to cooperate with Xu Hai."

"Only at this time can we take our hands out and go on an expedition to Xiluozhou. His majesty's relocation of the clan is also in response to this strategy. The relocation of the clan is to strengthen the control of Nanyang and overseas countries and ensure the smooth route of the Western Expedition."

"Connect Ottoman, Tianzhu, Nanyang, and Ming Dynasty."

"Such a party has the strength to go on an expedition to Xiluo Continent."

"During this expedition, under the banner of Ming Dynasty, we will recover the overseas territories of Zheng He's period, punish Xiluozhou for disrespecting Ming Dynasty, and more than [-] Xiluo pirates went to Nanyang to wreak havoc and violate Ming Dynasty."

"So, this war will be fought until Xi Luozhou surrenders."

"Our purpose is to slay dragons, but other countries don't know it, and people from all over the world don't know it. What they see is the brilliance of Ming Dynasty, that's all."

This is no longer killing chickens and monkeys.

But those who offend my strong man will be punished even if they are far away.

Shock the whole world with a war, and tell everyone that Da Ming is back.

There are Ottomans, Tianzhu, and Ming in the east, and the first emperor led Shangzhou to counterattack in the west. It is impossible for Xiluozhou to hold on, and Martin Luther may be furious.

He originally thought that Ming Dynasty was currently engaged in civil war, and that Xi Luozhou still had at least five to ten years of expansion.

But Zhang Zhixiang would rather appease the white snake than slaughter the black dragon first.

Not to mention cooperating with Xu Hai, voluntarily giving up Daming's promotion of civilization in Xiluozhou, Tianzhu and other places after he dominated the world, making Xu Hai the god, intending to cultivate Daming's enemies in the future...

"I'm afraid it's not easy to record in the history books."

After Wang Jiangque was silent for a while, he suddenly said.

Regardless of the White Snake, it is about Xu Hai. After Da Ming resumed Zheng He's voyages, why Xu Hai was able to sit on the throne is not clear.

No matter how the two sides cooperate, there will be traces in it.

People of later generations who study carefully will understand that Xu Hai's rise is the result of Zhang Zhixiang's intentional indulgence.

""Mencius" said: "If you enter, you will have no family, but if you leave, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will perish. Then you will know that you are born in adversity and die in peace." Zhang Zhixiang explained his reasons for doing so.

He doesn't care how the history books record it. Those who really understand will know his good intentions.

A fake civilization that believes in gods does not need to be afraid at all.

If even a religious civilization can’t deal with it, Da Ming doesn’t need to live forever. It is precisely the existence of Xu Hai, who has limited future potential but has a huge body, which can make Da Ming always vigilant and never slack off after the longevity revolution.

"Just one thing, it may not have much impact on your reputation."

"It's Xu Hai's matter, plus you forcibly killed Xu Jie..."

Wang Jiangque didn't say the result of failure. Since Zhang Zhixiang killed the black dragon first, boosted Da Mingming's prestige, and used the pinnacle of national fortune to face Xu Jie, he naturally had the possibility of winning.

But the problem is, even if you win, the after-effects are too great.

"What sequelae can there be? It's nothing more than that we won, and the people in the south of the Yangtze River miss it all the time. They often think about what would happen to Daming if Xu Jie had won."

"Their memories will continue to beautify Xu Jie and turn Xu Jie into a true saint."

"Then the demands on the imperial court are not only high, but they are constantly picking on the thorns."

"Isn't that nice?"

"If the country is weak, this situation is unacceptable, but it is foreseeable in the future that if we win, Ming Dynasty will have a rising period of hundreds of years in the future, and what is needed is constant criticism and correction, which is the most important thing. "

"Let future officials know that Xu Jie's spirit in heaven is watching them."

Zhang Zhixiang said with a light smile, not worried about his reputation at all.

And Wang Jiangque realized the beauty of it, looked at her husband complicatedly, and could only say that he was indeed Mr. Yangming's disciple, this style was too strong.

"But what about yourself?"

"You also said that the essence of wealth is name and power."

"Daming after the Changsheng Revolution, you must be full of controversy. That's all. I'm afraid that if Da Ming goes astray in the future, you need to come out to correct it. At that time, it will be troublesome."

It's not just a trouble, but an Achilles' heel.

But if Daming really encountered a problem, would Zhang Zhixiang not take action?Absolutely not.

Zhang Zhixiang smiled and said: "I'm well prepared to fall, it doesn't matter whether it's half or half, or half or seven."

"Protect Daming this journey, I, Your Majesty, should abdicate as well."

"No one can protect Daming forever, not the ancient sage kings, Fuxi, Dayu, Huangdi, nor me. It is enough to support Daming once more."

"If the future generations are really unworthy, there will be no successors."

"That means we didn't do a good job, failed, and this longevity will come to an end."

"Is there any eggs in the nest?"

"It is my wish to be martyred."

Of course Wang Jiangque hoped that Zhang Zhixiang would have no weaknesses, live forever, and with such an immortal guarding and taking care of him quietly, civilization would probably develop smoothly.

But Zhang Zhixiang said that no one should be the one to rely on, and people still have to rely on themselves after all.

and so.

It was Zhang Zhixiang's initiative to choose this ending and to be stained with taint.

He doesn't want to be perfect, and he doesn't want to be absolutely right.

He needs the world to look at him critically. It is best to look at everything critically. He must be able to think for himself and understand what is right and wrong.

"My reputation will not affect Daming's progress."

"From the very beginning, I was not alone. Your Majesty was there, there was your royal family's righteous deeds, you, Mr. Qingyang, the Qingyang Party, Qian Heng, Yan Song, Yu Dayou, Hu Zongxian, Hai Rui, and us Zhang Juzheng, who has high hopes."

"There are many, many people."

"The road to longevity has been paved, and the wheels of civilization are rolling forward. This is the general trend of this era, and it is the common cause of all of you."

"Civilization neither survives nor perishes because of me."

"That's what it should have been."

"Our civilization is too great, and our history is extremely glorious. In that extremely glorious history, there are countless heroes. Perhaps one of them is missing, and it is impossible to imagine the consequences, but no one can transcend everything."

"Since ancient times, we have had many capable ministers and wise emperors. Even an emperor can be ranked in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth ranks. Not to mention the first and second ranks, even the third and fourth ranks have countless controversies and pity."

"It is the Ziwei sage who has been one emperor through the ages. Since the Spring and Autumn Period, there have been Qin Emperor, Ming Zu, and there will be Mr. in the future."

"Before the Spring and Autumn Period, there were King Wen and Duke Zhou."

"Does Xia Qi, who was founded by three generations, count? Does Shang Tang count?"

"Where's Yao and Shun?"

"Further up, there is a painting of Fuxi who opened the sky, Yu who really controlled the water, the original son of heaven, the prototype of the Jade Emperor, the husband of Nuwa, and the Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of humanity."

"This is the Three Sovereigns of Heaven, Earth and Man."

"But before the Three Emperors, there was Kuafu who determined the four seasons of Taiji, the Suiren clan who established the calendar with the Great Mars, the Chao clan who established the lair, and the legendary Zhisheng clan. These are the three emperors."

"Going forward, there are also the Shang Sanhuang who are like pure myths."

""Chunqiu Yuanmingbao" says that the Chinese civilization is 220 years, such a long time, such a romantic person, how can I, Zhang Zhixiang, think that I can transcend the vulgarity?"

"What's more, I'm just taking advantage of the time travel."

"It's just a pure heart to be able to get to where I am today, and to be able to determine the future of civilization, so civilization gave me this opportunity."

After many people take power, they forget about it.

I think that standing in that position and having the power to decide the future is so great, but it is not true. When I am in this position, I must first look at the past. Compared with the ancient sages and sages, I am good or bad. , where you are, how those greater and greater than you are doing, think twice before acting.

Zhang Zhixiang has self-knowledge.

In his opinion, in the future historical evaluation, it is enough for him to be on the same level as Mr. Yang Ming.

just.

Obviously, everyone wanted him to go higher, including Wang Jiangque. At least, they wanted him to reach the level of King Wen of Zhou, but he was not willing.

He did not have this ability. King Wen of Zhou received the inheritance of the two branches of Xia and Shang, and after completing the way of the emperor, he could complete the Book of Changes in two generations.

He doesn't have this ability.

Being able to understand history, find the thread of civilization, and learn to slay dragons is the limit of what he can do. In essence, he still prefers merit rather than making words. Like Mr. Ming, it can really change people's hearts.

Change the trend of thought of the whole society.

Therefore, he established his heart for the world, established his life for the living and the people, established his unique knowledge for the past saints, and opened the balance for the eternal world.

It is even more so if you set your heart for heaven and earth.

Sort out the things that already exist, and make it easy to understand, that's all.

Counting him in, he has no contribution, and he has no way to contribute.

There are many crazy people in later generations who look down on Confucius, thinking that Confucius is just an elder who taught dundu, speaking simple and unpretentious truths, but they don’t know that Confucius’ greatest achievement is to write "Ten Wings", which is the complete version of the Book of Changes in later generations .

Besides, who can use the Book of Changes?
Zhang Zhixiang did not contribute to internal mathematics, and could not improve the underlying code of civilization. In external mathematics, he is not as good as Juzi and many mathematics experts. From "Zhoubi Suanjing" to "Baojian of Mathematics", there will be Xu Guangqi's "Mathematics Treasure Book" in the future Geometry Original", Wang Zheng's "Illustration of Qi Qi Qi Shuo", Li Shanlan's "Ten Levels of Micro-Cultification" and "Mathematics and Gezhi".

Mathematics is the mother of science.

Zhang Zhixiang also couldn't add bricks and tiles to mathematics. He could copy a few formulas, but he couldn't do research to explain the principles.

What's wrong with me, I have to figure it out.

The world thinks that he is a great sage who can guide the direction of civilization, but he himself knows that he is far from a real sage. If he wins this victory, he can be a little proud only in terms of merit. That's all.

Wang Jiangque understood what he was thinking, and he figured it out in a moment. With a smile, he walked behind Zhang Zhixiang, hugged him, and said affectionately: "Then let's win this war together, and then live in seclusion together. "

"Go to the other side of the sea, in the five great lakes of Shangzhou, and find a paradise."

"I've been to the fairy life of the wild cranes in the clouds."

(PS: Fuxi and Nuwa had nothing to do with each other in the pre-Qin period. It was not until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty that there was a saying of brother and sister in "Customs", and it was not until the Tang Dynasty that the saying of husband and wife appeared in the novel "Duyi Zhi".)
(PS: Regarding Dayu, there are actually two. One is the real Dayu, and the other is the one with the title of Dayu, the one in our conventional cognition who founded the Xia Dynasty. There were two floods in ancient times, one was During the period of Zhuanxu and Gonggong, the history books generally record the time of ancient times, and the flood in the period of Yao and Shun is recorded as the time of Yao and Shun.)
(PS: Gonggong was angry and touched the mountain of Buzhou, so the pillars of heaven were broken, and the earth was destroyed. In some myths, it is Gonggong and Zhurong who fight, so Nuwa is needed to mend the sky. Nuwa is a figure in the era of Zhuanxu and Gonggong. The so-called mending the sky and water control are actually the same thing.)
(PS: The story of Dayu looking forward to his husband Shi, he asked his wife who turned into a stone to return his child. In ancient times, when a husband and wife were married, the child did not belong to the man, but the woman returned to the tribe, and belonged to the woman's tribe So Dayu went through the house three times but did not enter, but after the flood was successfully controlled, he wanted to return his children. For this reason, Nuwa reformed the marriage, and the husband and wife lived together.)
(PS: In "Historical Records Suoyin" there is: "The daughter of Tushan's real name is Nuwa, and Yu married the daughter of Tushan's daughter as Nuwa." In "Historical Records of Justice" there is: "Yu married the son of Tushan, which means The Nuwa, who is inspired by life." "Wuyue Chunqiu" may be recorded as Nvjiao, but this is a work of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the record is relatively late. The index and righteous quotation are "Shiben", and "Dixie" is a pre-Qin work.)
(PS: "Historical Records: Biography of Gui Ce": "Yu's name is to debate wisdom, but he can't defeat ghosts and gods. The ground pillars are broken, and the sky has no rafters, so how can people be held accountable." The analogy of Tianzhu breaking and Diweijue. Mending the sky and water control are the same period. And Dayu’s hometown is Sichuan and Shu, and the story of Du Yu is the story of Dayu.)
(PS: As mentioned above, after the fall of the Xia Dynasty, it was divided into three branches, one went to the Huns and became a royal family, one stayed in the Central Plains and wrote "Tang Wen" for Shang Tang, and the most important branch was Xia Jie who led Went to Nanchao, and from Nanchao, Xia Jie went all the way west, and finally came to Sichuan, and arrived at Sanxingdui, which is the hometown of Dayu, so Sanxingdui has sacrificial artifacts from the Xia Dynasty. Huo Qubing seized the Xiongnu sacrifice to heaven The golden man is the bronze Dali man in Sanxingdui.)
