Chapter 245 244. The Theory of the People
The ancestral court of Taoism is in Taiyi Mountain, and Taiyi Mountain is near Xianyang in Qin State.Although Taoism did not publicly declare that it would wholeheartedly support Qin to dominate the world.However, Taoism has the highest courtesy among all other schools of thought in Qin, which is actually the best way to express its attitude.

Moreover, the ancestral court is so close to the royal city of the Warring States Period. If there is nothing fishy about it, no one will believe it.In fact, many people do not know that many people in Qin temples are Taoist and lay disciples.

It's just that there are some things that I know very well but haven't made them public.Moreover, only the Taoist Tianzong supported Qin, not the entire Taoist school.

After entering Hangu Pass, many people know it.Chisongzi from Tianzong has returned, and has also brought Mr. Four from Xiaoshengxian Village, as well as friends from the mysterious Shenxian family, and is also the current head of the Shenxian family99.

Qin Mo, famous people, Luo Wang, public losers, Taoist clans, even Wencheng military generals in Qin's temples have heard about it.

The various schools of thought already possess the most powerful power in this era, and the name of this power is "knowledge".Not to mention Confucianism and Taoism, which already occupy two of the five major schools of thought.Although the Immortal family is penniless and has never been prominent among other scholars, each generation of descendants is a mysterious and unpredictable existence.

Such a strange combination will naturally attract the attention of others no matter where it goes.

Sure enough, as soon as they entered the vicinity of Xianyang City, they saw a large group of people rushing towards them in the distance.The leader was none other than the current General of Da Qin, known as the military's No. 1 Meng Ao.

At this time, he was in his prime, ambitious and high-spirited age.Seeing the people riding horses, especially Ji Ruyu walking in the middle, his eyes immediately lit up.After waving his hand to signal the nearly a hundred guards around him to stop, he came over alone on a war horse. When he saluted and greeted everyone, he explained his purpose of coming.

Qin has always been interested in talented people, especially those from the six kingdoms of Guandong.As long as you have a skill, you can display your ambitions in Qin.In fact, the Meng family was not a native of the Qin Dynasty, but a family of soldiers from the Wei State. After surrendering to the Qin State, they fought bravely and gained their current status in the Qin State's military.

This time King Qin Zhaoxiang heard that the fourth gentleman from Xiaoshengxian Village was visiting Qin, and he immediately invited Meng Ao with excitement.

You must know that Xiaoshengxianzhuang is the ancestral home of Confucianism, and it is also where the spirit and belief of the vast number of Confucian scholars in the world reside. Such people are also the descendants of Mencius' sages. How could Ying Ji, who wants to be the overlord of the world, not meet him in person?

After thinking about it, Ji Ruyu agreed, and even brought 99 with her.Just as they set off towards Xianyang, Chisongzi looked at Ji Ruyu's back with deep eyes, and said with some unbearability and doubt: "One glance for ten thousand years, maybe this is your opportunity, and it is also your life's catastrophe, your destiny It’s always a bit out of control.”

"Forget it! If something happens to you in the Qin State in the future, even if I, Tianzong, take advantage of all the favors in the Qin State, I will ensure that you get out of Hangu Pass safely!"

Chi Songzi didn't say anything more, but unconsciously clenched the Xue Ji Sword, led the horse and headed towards Taiyi Mountain.

……

With the current national strength and combat power of the Great Qin far exceeding the six kingdoms of Guandong, the Qin Palace should have been extremely luxurious.However, the purely streamlined palace only has a bit more solemn power. It does not have the graceful and luxurious atmosphere given by the six royal families, and it even looks a bit crude.

As soon as she entered the vicinity of Zhangtai Palace, Ji Ruyu stopped.Just when everyone was confused, he just said to Mu Yu who was following behind him: "The Qin Palace is the solemn and sacred place of the Qin Kingdom, and the Little Sage Manor is the most reasonable and polite place. Riding a horse and carrying a sword is not what I do. What the Fourth Master should do, Mu Yu, wait at the gate of the palace, remember not to lose the face of my little Saint’s Manor!”

Dismounting from the horse and untying the sword, Ji Ruyu's actions obviously gave Qin a lot of face.

Even Meng Ao, who was born on the battlefield, felt honored and respected at this moment, and even personally guided Ji Ruyu.After entering the real Zhangtai Palace, I saw Ying Ji busy behind the desk.

Meng Ao was about to report, but was stopped by Ji Ruyu, and even the servants were stopped one after another.Ji Ruyu waved her hands to signal to sit cross-legged and let Ying Ji busy with state affairs.

Meng Ao and the chamberlain looked at each other, but they felt that the smiling Ji Ruyu in front of them was more like a regular visitor to Zhangtai Palace, while he and the others felt more like guests coming to visit.

Compared with the pleasure-seeking monarchs of the Six Kingdoms of Kanto, Ying Ji's busy figure looked a bit haggard and old.Even though Da Qin had the help of its prime ministers, Ying Ji still managed everything on a day-to-day basis and even knew the affairs of the country well. But it was such a king who made Da Qin lose his temper to the six kingdoms of Kanto.

Seeing Ying Ji walking into a selfless place in front of the desk, immersed in his mind while picking up a pen to review memorials, Ji Ruyu felt that such a king was more suitable to be the king of Qin.

After being busy for an hour, Ying Ji finally put down his pen and relaxed his body, and then he noticed the people sitting cross-legged in front of the hall.After looking slightly stunned, he immediately scolded angrily, and Meng Ao and the servants fell to their knees.

"Mr. Ji is my distinguished guest. If you keep him waiting for a long time, you are too courageous."

Ying Ji no longer looked tired as he had just reviewed the memorial, and his angry roaring words made people feel the evil spirit coming from the pavement.You must know that Ying Ji is an iron-blooded king, and he has the highest military and political power of Qin in his hands.The courage to overwhelm all sentient beings would scare the faint of heart to death.

"Please, Your Majesty, stop the thunder and anger for a while, Ruyu has a few words, I don't know if I should say it or not!"

Even though Ji Ruyu hadn't spoken yet, Ying Ji knew what Ji Ruyu was going to say.After waving his hand for everyone to get up, Ying Ji quietly walked down the dragon platform.When he motioned for everyone to sit across from each other, the waiter immediately served tea and refreshments cautiously.

Ji Ruyu smiled and bowed, then sat down, and then said to the powerful Ying Ji: "My teacher has a saying to respect the world, saying that the people are the most precious, the country is second, and the king is the least, do you agree with it or not!"

Without even thinking about it, Ying Ji smiled lightly and said, "That's very kind!"

Ying Ji not only thought this way, but also acted this way in the state affairs he presided over.The Qin State pursues the rule of law, and all citizens are one and the same and are strictly monitored by the law.The people of Qin had the supervision of the law, and they also had a place to appeal for grievances. This is a concrete manifestation of the people being the most important.

Ji Ruyu continued with a smile: "Since the people are the most precious thing, the king is devoted to managing the country's affairs. This is the best way to show that the name is noble. General Meng and the servants do not dare to disturb. Isn't this the best way for the king to do the people the most?" Performance?"

"What are the people? The state affairs are the people of Qin. The king handles affairs for the people, which is actually the kindness of loving the people like his own son. General Meng and his servants are not only innocent, but they are truly loyal to the king. Let me ask about the mediocrity of the six kingdoms of Guandong. I only know that a king who is greedy for pleasure can have such loyal ministers as General Meng and his chamberlains."

Ji Ruyu looked at Yingji in front of her, nodded with a smile and said: "Ruyu knows that the king has Meng Chang's legacy of giving money to talents who are eager for talents. But with good talents, you can't disturb the king's administration. After all, talents are only to assist the king. Tools for governing the country of Qin, but tools are more important than thousands of old Qin people!"

Ying Ji is a truly talented and heroic leader. Not only does he have a mind that can lead to hundreds of rivers, he also has the courage to listen to other people's advice.He thought about it seriously, then smiled and waved, "Sir, the great kindness you said will be greatly rewarded by General Meng and the interior ministers!"

Ji Ruyu smiled and said, "Ruyu has a message for the king!"

When Ying Ji heard this, he was surprised and said, "Sir, why do you teach me so much?"

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Only the combination of strength and softness is the true kingly way that will last forever."

Ying Ji savored these words carefully, and the more he chewed, the more delicious it became.While murmuring, there was also some uncontrollable inspiration, and the eyes looking at Ji Ruyu became more and more surprised.

As a busy king of a country, Ying Ji's daily schedule is fully arranged.But now that he saw Ji Ruyu, he had some thoughts of having a long conversation.Since the "Brother Bai Qi" who understood him best was killed, Ying Ji has become more and more melancholy and lonely. The Ji Ruyu in front of him seems to make him see the "Brother Bai Qi" of his past.

Ying Ji waved his hand to signal everyone to retreat, and after only Meng Ao was left in the hall, he couldn't wait to ask: "I don't know how you think about the world today!"

Ji Ruyu thought for a while, put down the glass of water in her hand, and then smiled and replied to Ying Ji: "This world has been troubled for 500 years, and it will eventually usher in unprecedented unification."

Seeing Ying Ji's beaming expression, Ji Ruyu had no choice but to pour cold water on him and said, "But who the winner will be is uncertain. It may be Qin, the fourth hero, or Probably the Six Kingdoms of Kanto.”

Knowing that Ji Ruyu came from the royal family of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Ying Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Of course it could also be the Eastern Zhou Dynasty!"

Ha ha--

Ji Ruyu laughed loudly when she heard this, and Ying Ji and Meng Ao looked at them with doubts on their faces.I don't understand why Ji Ruyu laughs so freely and freely on such a serious topic.
