Hanging pot to help the world, I just want to live forever

Chapter 226
With the leader of Qiyinglong, the rest of the former emperors of Dayong, Daqing, and Dayue all followed suit. They all said that there are talented and intelligent people in their royal family, and they want to come to Xia Dynasty to study for a period of time. .

It is said to be learning, but it actually means proton—but unlike proton, it is one-sided.

Not to mention that the Xia Dynasty does not need to send protons, the protons sent by these countries, if nothing happens, will definitely be able to be crowned a great treasure after returning.

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, who understands people's hearts very well, and naturally understands what this means.

Calculating according to the maximum limit of about 20 years for the master, how much is the maximum limit for surpassing the master?According to less, how can you have to be 50 years old?
Fifty years old, there are six or seven generations in the mortal world. Even if you are an emperor, you can survive three or four generations. If you are lucky, you may survive a few more.

And before that one gets old, the Four Kingdoms are destined to only rely on the Xia Dynasty, unless he no longer supports the Xia Dynasty.

That being the case, it is better to be more straightforward, reduce those secretive things, and send the future emperor directly, and wait for the instructions to finish the job.

Gu Dan didn't take the royal family's life, so they had to reciprocate - Gu Dan didn't have to, but they had to.

The various trade-offs in this are naturally deliberate.

Wang Mang nodded in agreement one by one, this is indeed a good opportunity.

The current Xia Dynasty is not strong, or the general environment is still in a mess. It needs to be rectified, to deal with the four countries, and even to occupy the mainstream, it must use the tiger's skin as a banner.

The Four Kingdoms wanted to please Gu Dan, so why didn't Wang Mang covet the talents and resources of the Four Kingdoms?
It doesn't matter if it's still a mess now, who can tell clearly what will happen next?

While Gu Dan's coercion is still there, of course, he must make up for it from the four countries, including but not limited to things like opening up the country and doing business exchanges.

But these things are not what we are going to talk about today.

Everyone who could be present knew that apart from the great joy of the founding of the Xia Dynasty, there was another event that could wash away the joy, so after the brief congratulations, people from several countries stepped aside with solemn expressions and solemn.

Mo Qiu fell.

This news has reached the time when it has to be announced, and even announced to the world.

So on such a happy day, white flowers still accounted for more than half of the flowers outside.

It's not that those officials don't know how to avoid taboos, but that there is no need to avoid taboos, and they even have to take the initiative to spread more white flowers.

At this time, almost all the people thought that Mo Qiu was still alive, and even thought that the first emperor of the Xia Dynasty was Mo Qiu, so the cheering people on the street all shouted the word "sage".

Once the news of Mo Qiu's demise spread, it was equivalent to the fall of a pinnacle in people's hearts.

But Xia Chao could no longer deceive himself and others. It was impossible to keep wearing Mo Qiu Daoyi on his body to appease people's hearts.

There must always be an explanation.

Instead of coaxing and comforting people now, after a few years, they will secretly release rumors that Mo Qiu is long gone. That would also damage the majesty and reputation of the Xia Dynasty too much.

It is difficult to accumulate such things as reputation, but it is consumed extremely quickly.

Wang Mang didn't intend to destroy the Great Wall himself, even if he knew that the announcement of Mo Qiu's fall at this time would greatly damage the trust and expectations of the people, he had no choice but to do so.

This is respect for the Xia Dynasty, respect for Mo Qiu, respect for the Mohists, and respect for myself.

"One more thing, you should already know."

Wang Mang sat on the dragon chair, his voice sank slightly, "Young master of the Mo family, Mo Qiu has passed away."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar below.

Regardless of whether they knew it a long time ago, even if they were pretending at this time, they had to pretend to be sad.

Only a few people's expressions did not change.

For example, Qinli Sheng, Gong Shangguo, and even Xun Ke.

They looked coldly at the hypocrisy of those civil and military officials who had been temporarily promoted, without saying a word.

"Mozi is my master. I followed him to learn martial arts and morality. Throughout his life, there is no more than the word 'morality'. For the sake of morality, Mozi founded the Mohist school; for the sake of morality, Mozi rushed to Yuzhou; for the sake of morality, Mozi killed Emperor Zongming; for the sake of morality, Mozi took three thousand mohists and beheaded the commander of Daqing; for the sake of morality, Mozi defended the city for several years."

Wang Mang's voice paused, and then he said again: "It's also for the sake of morality. After the Yuanhe River broke its embankment, Mo Zi relied on his life in exchange for the world to live in peace!"

He counted the things Mo Qiu had done in detail. After these deeds, the court would definitely publicize them again, but at this time, he was actually mourning the achievements of Mo Qiu during his lifetime.

"I can say responsibly that without Mozi, there would be no Xia Dynasty, and there would be nothing today. Without Mozi, the war would not stop, and the people would not see the dawn of hope. Without Mozi, the people of the world would It is difficult to understand what the word morality is!"

Wang Mang's voice became agitated, and he almost burst into tears, heartbroken, "Mozi, who established the Xia Dynasty and fought for morality all his life, my master, has been unable to see everything he has fought for!"

There were cries from below.

The cry grew from small to loud.

Even though he knew that some of them were just pretending, the corners of Xun Ke's eyes couldn't help but get moist.

The man who saved his life, his real master, could not see all this.

Obviously, it is only less than a year away, and even if we wait a few more days, there may be a different result.

But, no if.

Perhaps as Mr. Gu said, Master Mo will wake up one day.

But on such a day, can they still see it?
The most important thing is, for the people who are full of hope at this time, can they wait?

I'm afraid I won't be able to wait.

For a person like Master Mo who has a heart for the common people and is really capable and confident in running for the common people, how many years will it take for such a person to appear?

Mr. Gu has done a lot of things. If those things are said, the prestige will not be less than that of Mo Shi, but Mr. Gu is not Mo Shi after all. .

He would rather transfer all his deeds to Mo Shi than reveal it to others.

Without Master Mo, this world lacks a person who can resist the flag.

In such an era, the power that individual worship can exert is unimaginable, not to mention that personal power does indeed exist!
In such an era, the individual can transcend the collective and even dominate the collective.

The surrender of the four countries is the best proof.

After Master Mo left, the vacancy left by him, I don't know how many people will be needed to fill it.

Fortunately, this sad state did not last for too long, Wang Mang on the dragon chair still had something to say.

"My heart aches!"

Wang Mang was beating his chest, his eyes were shining, and his address had changed unconsciously, "Mozi is not only my master, but also the master of the world. What he protects is not the interests of a certain country or a certain place, but the interests of the world. His morality is the morality of those who cannot stand here, the common people!

The world respects Master Mo as a sage, and his person is like a sage, there is no whitewashing words!I am now posthumously conferring on Mozi the title of 'The Most Sacred Teacher', to enjoy the incense of all ages, and to regard Mohism as the state religion. I hope that the Xia Dynasty will live up to the morality and righteousness advocated by Mohist! "

Holy Master!

It's really an amazing title.

And I hope that the Xia Dynasty will live up to Mozi's morality and raise it to a higher level.

The implication is that people in a country may not be as good as a person's virtue.

There is no more extraordinary praise and appreciation than this, which is an unprecedented affirmation.

"Everyone, what do you want to say?"

After promulgating his posthumous title, Wang Mang asked seriously.

"Mozi's virtue is unique in the world, the most holy teacher, it should be taken for granted!"

"Mozi is a role model for the people of the world, and the four characters of the most holy teacher are truly worthy of the name and deserve it!"

"Mozi's merits and virtues are enough to convince people sincerely, the most sage teacher could not be more appropriate, my emperor is wise!"

Various voices of approval and approval resounded in the hall.

Not a single objection was raised.

So Wang Mang nodded lightly and waved his hand, "Then spread the news."

"Is it today?"

The officials from the Ministry of Rituals stepped forward bravely. Didn't they say that it would take a few more days, at least wait until the festive atmosphere passed, why did they suddenly change their minds?

"How can this matter be neglected?"

Wang Mang frowned, and hurriedly said, "Quickly report!"

"Yes!"

The officials from the Ministry of Rituals immediately nodded in response, and trotted out quickly, with sweat on their foreheads.

Wang Mang played this game suddenly, and he was really not afraid that the people would blow up the imperial capital under the excitement of the crowd!

Those people who were originally full of joy suddenly learned that their emperor was not the natural sage that had been advertised all along. Guy, what kind of reaction should it be?

On the dragon chair, Wang Mang took a deep breath.

This decision was also well thought out by him.

Since you want to be a good emperor, you must first show your own attitude.

From a common sense point of view, there is almost no hope of surpassing Moqiu, unless he also died in martyrdom, there is such a negligible chance.

But why go beyond it?
Mo Qiu is a saint.

And he is now the emperor.

A saint is a saint, and an emperor is an emperor. These are two completely different tracks.

In terms of being a human being and morality, he is far inferior to Mo Qiu.

But when it comes to being an emperor and ruling the world, this is just the beginning. Who dares to be sure about what will happen next?

If he wants to make a career, he can't avoid this.

Instead of being underestimated by others, it is better to express your attitude directly from the beginning.

The Xia Dynasty had just been established, and he had just ascended the throne.

It is the weakest time, and the most indifferent time.

Now there are many problems in the Xia Dynasty, and all the civil and military officials have just been pulled out, and there are some guys who fill in the vacancies first.

When there are all problems, a little more problem is nothing.

Don't do it now, wait until the end is too big to announce it, how will it be written in the history books?
History is like a knife!

You can lie to the public now, but in the future you will slap yourself in the face!
It's better to make it clear from the beginning, anyway, he has not accumulated any majesty and virtue, and he is not afraid of being scolded.

After all, such a picked-up emperor couldn't bear even a little abuse as a grievance, that's too ignorant of current affairs.

When the officials from the Ministry of Rites disappeared before his eyes, Wang Mang's eyes fell on Qin Lisheng, the new Mohist tycoon.

"Qin Lisheng, you are the second great son of the Mohist family, taking over the morality after the Mohist! In your hands, I hope the glory of the Mohisth will not fall, and the Mohists can continue to be able to shoulder the word "moral justice" !"

Wang Mang said seriously.

"I will live up to the expectations of the people."

Qin Lisheng said solemnly.

As soon as he took over as the great son of the Mo family, he made a choice that Mo Qiu had never made.

Step into the temple.

Mo Qiu had met Emperor Zong Ming several times before, and it was not that Emperor Zong Ming had mentioned the matter of rewards, but when it came to official positions in the temple, they were all rejected by Mo Qiu.

Still the same sentence, morality, not for sale.

Qin Lisheng is not ignorant of the disadvantages of setting foot in temples.

But also had to do so.

If you don't set foot in the temple, the Mohism is a pure non-governmental organization.

A non-government organization, with a powerful force in its hands, has to eliminate violence, punish rape and eradicate evil everywhere - this is really nothing in troubled times. Anyway, the world is broken, and what you do is good, so you can do it , There are countless people who admire it.

But it was a troubled time!
What about the peaceful and prosperous age?
What is the Mo family going to do?

How will Mohist act?

Without a position in the court, but also to eliminate violence, punish rape and eradicate evil, where does the name come from?

Do I need to report to the government before doing things?

If the views of the government and Mohists are to the left, who do you listen to?

These issues have to be considered.

To put it mildly, this is an individual who overrides the laws of the country, and the Mohists do not have the right to enforce the law in a strict sense.

To put it into a big way, this is to treat the country's laws and regulations as nothing. Every time the Mohists do something, they are slapping the face of Xia Dynasty and the court!
Without entering the temple, no country can tolerate the Mohists.

After entering the temple, can the Mohist school remain the same Mohist?

The previous question has no solution.

The latter question can also be guaranteed by personal efforts.

Therefore, Qin Lisheng chose to bring the Mohists along, join the Xia Dynasty, and become a part of the Xia Dynasty system—if you have to compare it to Dayue, it might be analogous to Jinyiwei, who is directly responsible to the emperor, but its purpose and reputation are completely different. One level, the things to do are not at all the same level.

In this way, the Mohists are doing things for the emperor. Every time the Mohism accomplishes a major event, it is no longer slapping the face of the country or the emperor, but helping the emperor to clean up moths and get rid of stubborn diseases.

The Mohists also have the legitimacy to act, no longer the word "morality" in words, but the justice supported by the state and the right to enforce the law, which is absolutely beyond reproach.

"very good."

Wang Mang nodded lightly, and the matter was turned from here.

Now that the biggest thing is over, we can talk about other things.

I couldn't wait any longer, and the prayer dragon who glanced back and forth several times at the people in the court hall took the lead in stepping out, and said bluntly: "Dare to ask where is that person? I have something here, and I want to pay him a visit. I also hope that Emperor Xia will be successful!"
