Cyber Daming

At the end of March, the long winter in the Fan land was finally over.

The vast land shed its white winter clothes and put on a new light green outfit.

A little snow was hiding in the dark places where the spring sun could not reach. It was melted by the gradually warming weather and solidified into a crystal ice layer, which wrapped a thin layer on the dark rocks.

When people stepped on it, it would immediately make a crisp creaking sound.

This majestic mountain standing deep in the Wusi Zangwei was renamed Sangyan from Nanjia. Now it is affectionately called Putuo by the devout Fan people.

In the Fan language, these two words represent the place where the Bodhisattva lives.

The road up the mountain was as rugged as before, but Zhang Fengyue didn't care at all. He was holding a straight dead branch as a walking stick in his hand, walking up the mountain alone, and concentrating on appreciating the beautiful scenery along the way.

"Prime Minister, Yan Dongqing's whereabouts have been found."

Zhang Fengyue was not surprised by the sudden voice behind him, and continued to climb the stairs, asking without turning his head.

"He should have gone to Longhu Mountain, right?"

"You have a good eye, it is true."

"It's not that I have a good eye, but young people like him like to do things that are dangerous and rich, even if they know they are trying to get the skin of a tiger, they don't care at all."

Zhang Fengyue asked with a smile: "Si Gu, why do you think it is?"

"Overestimate your own abilities."

The person who followed him with his hands hanging down answered softly, with an especially affirmative tone.

Zhang Fengyue couldn't help laughing when he heard it: "You, you always speak so disrespectfully. Yan Dongqing is the head of the Spring and Autumn Association after all, is he so unbearable in your eyes?"

"If it weren't for your kindness, you have always turned a blind eye to the little tricks they did and gave them enough opportunities, there would be no Spring and Autumn Association in this world."

"It doesn't matter whether you give them opportunities or not."

Zhang Fengyue paused and stretched himself as if he was a little tired.

Shang Sigu, who was following behind, took a step forward and tried to lend a hand, but was interrupted by the old man waving his hand.

"Each dynasty has its own ministers. This empire has been controlled by us old guys for long enough. We have to hand it over to the next generation. Only in this way can Confucianism have a healthy development and not become a rotten and smelly stagnant water."

"But they don't understand your thoughts. They all think that they can have what they have today entirely by their own ability."

Shang Sigu snorted coldly: "Even if they are about to die, they may only blame fate for being unfair and lament their bad luck!"

"There are unexpected changes in the weather, and people are subject to misfortunes at any time. A centipede with a hundred feet cannot walk as fast as a snake. A rooster with two wings cannot fly as fast as a crow. A horse has a thousand-mile journey, but it cannot go by itself without a rider. A person has a lofty ambition, but it cannot be achieved without luck. It is also human nature to blame success or failure on bad luck, and it is not a big deal."

Zhang Fengyue continued to climb the mountain, "In fact, I didn't think highly of Yan Dongqing before, but this time he made such a decisive choice, which really gave me Some surprises. It is rare to have the courage to use ten years of forbearance to gamble for a chance to survive in a desperate situation! "

"If he hadn't taken that wrong step, he might have really taken this opportunity to let the Spring and Autumn Society set up its own sect and become a real Confucian Order Party, so as to get the opportunity to be promoted to the second order and have the ability to compete head-on with me. "

Zhang Fengyue sighed: "It's a pity that he just set his sights on Li Jun. "

"Yan Dongqing chose to go to Longhu Mountain, and it must be to use Zhang Xiji to deal with Li Jun. "

Shang Sigu said in a deep voice: "Longhu Mountain and Donghuang Palace have an irreconcilable hatred with Li Jun. If Yan Dongqing can successfully persuade them to take action, he may not have no chance of winning. "

"Sigu, you don't understand Zhang Xiji, nor do you understand Li Jun. They have a complicated and overlapping network, but Li Jun is an indestructible knife. Today's order is a narrow road, and only those who move forward will be brave enough."

Zhang Fengyue's voice stopped here.

He obviously had no intention of continuing to discuss this topic, and asked instead: "Now that Yan Dongqing has rebelled, my student should also be unable to sit still, right?"

"On the day when the Wu family's building was bombed, Zhu Pingxu also appeared in Quzhou Prefecture. It seems that he should be ready to come forward to save the Spring and Autumn Society."

"Ah."

Zhang Fengyue sighed lightly: "When the sequence no longer exists, the current clans will also fall apart. By then, the monarch is the monarch, and the ministers are the ministers. The clans and parties are just constraints on the wise monarch, and there is no value in existence at all. Why should he be obsessed with this?"

"He should be afraid that if he loses the Spring and Autumn Society, you will think that he is not capable of the task, so he swallowed this bitter fruit with his nose pinched. It is obviously a force that he has supported himself, but it has nurtured so many people who are traitors. He did not learn the true meaning of Longwu, but only learned a little bit of Yizong's fur"

Shang Sigu said here, but his voice suddenly stopped.

After hesitating for a moment, he tentatively spoke: "Prime Minister, I think he might have done it on purpose"

"You mean to say that since Yan Dongqing chose to speed up the situation and tried to fish in troubled waters, he simply played along with it, pretending to protect the Spring and Autumn Society, but actually angered Li Jun and made him go on a killing spree."

Zhang Fengyue said lightly: "As long as this turmoil gets out of control, outsiders who are watching the fire from the other side of the river will take advantage of the situation and completely ruin the whole situation. Then he can take the opportunity to take off the skin of the Confucian order and put on the clothes of Zongheng?"

Shang Sigu nodded heavily.

"If he dares to do so, it will not be a waste of my teachings and examples over the years. I'm afraid that he still only wants to grasp the small handful of stable benefits in front of him, and he doesn't even have the courage to gamble like Yan Dongqing."

"I'm just guessing, but his every move so far has proved that he is not willing to follow your teachings and be a kingly monarch."

Shang Sigu reminded with a little worry: "The Zhu family's blood flows with the genes of Zongheng, and the chaotic world is exactly what Zongheng needs most. The mountains and rivers are sinking, and the heroes are fighting for supremacy, which has given Zongheng II an opportunity to appear."

"Eight out of ten things in life are not satisfactory. If he really doesn't want to listen, just let him go. I have done this step, and I can repay the friendship of the Zhu family for all these years. As long as the people of the world can no longer suffer from the sequence, it doesn't matter whether this empire is named Zhu or something else."

Zhang Fengyue suddenly turned his head and looked back, smiling at Shang Sigu with a solemn expression.

"Si Gu, if I ask you to give up the Huangliang Law Realm and the Ming Dynasty Law and change from the current leader of the legal order to an ordinary judicial clerk, would you be willing?"

"Sir, I want to ask whether there will still be laws in this world on that day?"

"Etiquette educates people's hearts, and laws regulate people's behavior. If there is no etiquette, people are no different from animals."

"Then let me ask again, after the sequence is cut off, will people be willing to follow the law?"

"At that time, everyone should crave the law and respect the law. People's nobility and humbleness are no longer determined by the sequence, but by the law."

"In this case, what's wrong with being a small judicial clerk? Si Gu is happy with it!"

"What a happy one!"

Zhang Fengyue laughed heartily and boldly, with a yearning light in his eyes.

"Then I will just be a teacher here. The tuition fee will be a bag of newly harvested barley that year, plus a pot of sweet butter tea. That's enough."

The old man smiled at Shang Sigu and joked, "If I am wronged by an unfair injustice, you must help me."

"Of course. But if you commit a crime, I will definitely not show mercy!"

Shang Sigu spoke righteously, his expression solemn.

"Hahahaha, no need, no need. I will teach honestly and be a decent person."

Zhang Fengyue raised his palm to wipe away the tears from his eyes, turned around and looked up at the towering mountain road that seemed to reach the sky.

"The long road is like an iron road. The obstacles and passes in my life are finally coming to an end."

As soon as the voice fell, the old man threw away the wooden stick in his hand, lifted his front, and strode forward.

Shang Sigu did not continue to follow, but stared at the thin back that could no longer support his robe.

Without a bamboo stick in his hand and straw shoes on his feet, he was still as light as the breeze, faster than a fast horse!

At the end of the long mountain road, Yuan Mingfei, dressed in white, had been waiting here for a long time.

In the vast mountaintop square behind her, there were countless prayer flags and white Hada, surrounded by a small temple with golden bricks and red tiles.

"Tianque Yuan Mingfei, meet the Prime Minister."

"Don't be so formal, just call me uncle like Li Jun."

Zhang Fengyue put his hands behind his back, looked around, and nodded with a smile.

His movements and demeanor were like a kind elder who came to visit his prosperous younger generation.

"Oh, I almost forgot to ask you."

Zhang Fengyue seemed to suddenly remember the purpose of his visit and looked at Yuan Mingfei with a smile.

"If you complete the second chapter of the Buddhist order, can you leave here?"

Yuan Mingfei's eyes widened slightly: "What did you say?"

"What did you say?!"

Zhu Pingxu listened to this angry question and repeated his previous words.

"Li Jun went into Northern Zhili alone and killed Wei Sheng of the Spring and Autumn Society in Daming Prefecture."

"Well, it seems that our warning to the East Court not only did not make him retreat, but also completely angered him?"

Emperor Jiaqi's face was gloomy and ugly, and his handsome eyebrows were tightly twisted together.

"He will definitely continue to attack Zhao Ke and others next. If we can't stop Li Jun, once Zhao Ke and Zhou Changji are also killed, the morale of the Chunqiu Society will be scattered."

"How to stop him?"

Jia Qi raised his eyebrows: "Should I send you to fight Li Jun in person? Or should I bring them to this palace? For a few traitors who have turned against me, I will reveal all my cards?"

"Li Jun is not easy to deal with, but Mo Xu's Eastern Branch."

Before Zhu Pingxu finished speaking, Jia Qi raised his hand to interrupt him.

"That is the last shackle on him. The previous test has touched his bottom line. Wei Sheng's death is his counterattack. So unless you are absolutely sure, you can't easily attack the Eastern Branch."

Zhu Pingxu frowned slightly. At this moment, Jia Qi's hesitation and concerns made him feel a little irritated, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction hidden deep inside.

Jia Qi did not notice his abnormality, and paced back and forth, his steps were heavy, and the golden bricks in the hall made muffled sounds.

"There is another piece of news, Yan Dongqing appeared in Jiangxi Province"

Jia Qi paused and looked at him coldly: "What do you want to say?"

"I want to ask whether we should tell Li Jun about this news. From what we know about him, the person he wants to kill the most is Yan Dongqing. Once he learns that Yan Dongqing is involved with Longhu Mountain, Li Jun will most likely turn around and head straight for Jiangxi."

Jia Qi frowned, as if thinking about the possibility.

But after a little hesitation, he shook his head.

"We all know this news. Do you think Zhang Fengyue doesn't know it? With his current relationship with Li Jun, it is impossible to suppress this news."

"Your Majesty means that Li Jun already knows it?"

Zhu Pingxu asked in confusion: "Then why doesn't he go to find Yan Dongqing, the culprit, but instead bites a few irrelevant Chunqiuhui backbones?"

Jia Qi stared at the other party with a cold look and said nothing.

He also wanted to know why, but he also couldn't see clearly that Li Jun was a tyrannical warrior who didn't know how to weigh the pros and cons and only knew the favors and hatreds of people.

Is Li Jun really doing this to practice the boring and cruel words of eradicating the Chunqiuhui?

Or is there something special about the Lone Wuxu that makes him kill people for more than just venting his anger?

"When the world was divided into martial arts, the late emperor and his people should have tried to completely lock this sequence at all costs, so that there would not be such a monster with such rapid promotion and fierce combat power to block my way now."

Jia Qi hated it in his heart, and his situation was extremely awkward at the moment.

On the one hand, he had to pinch his nose and pretend that he could not see through the disguise of Zhao Ke and others, and on the other hand, he had to find a way to protect them, so as not to wipe out the middle and high-level of the entire Spring and Autumn Association and fall apart.

You must know that these young generations of Confucian Orders do not have the hard-working character and indomitable tenacity of the previous generation.

When they are full of blood, they can die generously for the so-called ideals.

But if the leaders die, they will immediately become a group of selfish rabble.

Without the Spring and Autumn Association, it will not be so easy for him to continue to manipulate the Confucian Order.

This is the favor Zhang Fengyue gave back to the Zhu family. If he can't grasp it, the execution of the subsequent plan will become more difficult.

After thinking about it, there are only two choices in front of him now, either give up the Spring and Autumn Association or find a way to solve the trouble of Li Jun.

Jiaqi was caught between the two, unable to move, and in a dilemma.

"The Spring and Autumn Association can't just give up like this, at least keep Zhou Changji!"

Jiaqi was silent for a long time, and suddenly burst into a low roar.

Like an angry young tiger, the roar echoed in the empty and grand palace.

"Yan Dongqing. Yan Dongqing, if I don't grind you to ashes, how can I dispel the hatred in my heart?!"

Zhu Pingxu, who stood aside with his hands tied, nodded gently, but his eyes looking at Jiaqi were particularly complicated.

In his opinion, Zhang Fengyue suddenly left Beizhili and paid back the debt of favor accumulated by the Zhu family over the years, which made Jiaqi's mentality unbalanced.

It was like a latent dragon that had been suppressed for many years, and suddenly got the opportunity to rise from the abyss. But facing the vast world ahead, he was at a loss for a moment, and fell into confusion.

Zhu Pingxu could understand all this, and the Zhu family could bear some losses.

But at this moment, a self-questioning voice sounded uncontrollably in his heart.

"Are you them? Or just yourself?"

Zhu Pingxu, who was once very sure of the answer to this question, could not help but fall into doubt.
