History of the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 152 Royal World·Expanding the World of People (Four Thousand and Four)

The statue of Nuwa Fuxi has flown into the sky and arrived on Pengli Lake. It is high and far away, looking at the five kingdoms and looking at each other with the kings of the five kingdoms.

The compasses and square ruler in his hands exude a glorious light.

The monarchs of the five countries only felt their bodies slump, and their consciousnesses came to Pengli Ze in unison, and they looked at each other. Behind them were the phantoms of the people of their respective lands.

The King of Baiyue first bowed respectfully to Nuwa Fuxi, then smiled generously and glanced at every monarch.

Lord Han bowed to Tongjun, and Tongjun returned the bow.

The British side also hurriedly joined.

The three of them belong to the Zhou Dynasty, so they are naturally close at this time.

After the three of them greeted each other, Tong Jun thought that he would carry out the execution in Baiyue, so he bowed to the King of Baiyue again.

King Baiyue was stunned for a moment, but he also thought of the punishment code and scrawled a salute.

The monarchs of the other two countries also paid tribute in turn.

After all, Feng Yun now has a relationship with the two of them, so they can be said to be allies.

Here, King Yang Yue snorted coldly, which attracted the attention of the other four people.

But Feng Yun's body suddenly appeared.

Several people stopped being polite and came to watch.

Just listen.

"The Five Kingdoms have formed a pact - Fengze is the witness!"

Under the statue of Nuwa Fuxi, Fengze Zhongfei stretched out several chains transformed from contracts to connect the five monarchs.

In an instant, the five monarchs all felt bound by the contract, and after that, their respective national destiny!

"My princes, please keep your promise..."

"Natural, natural..."

The kings of the Three Kingdoms all called him, and the King of Baiyue smiled endlessly...

"Huh." King Yang Yue only felt aggrieved, but he nodded helplessly.

"Buzz!"

Returning to consciousness, King Yang Yue on the stage had complicated eyes, and finally waved his hand and said: "Since Lord Feng has exercised the contract, go back and rest... In half a month, Lord Lao Feng will hold the merchant sacrifice."

King Yang Yue's tone softened strangely, but it was more awkward.

He was angry with the Four Kingdoms Alliance, but he admired Feng Yun.

But the Four Kingdoms Alliance was planned by Feng Yun, which made him feel awkward.

Feng Yun also knew this, so he took the covenant and left.

He needs to keep this covenant, and he will take it to Feng Ze and order someone to carve it into Dagushan as a witness.

With Fengze as proof, if a country violates this covenant, it can use this covenant, just like Feng Yun used the luck of Baiyue Kingdom and the will of Shanshui in Fengze, and the power of Huangshan to mobilize the power of Fengze to punish this country.

One country...

Fengze is the best "witness".

…

That night... King Yangyue and Ji Ran were still arranging matters for Ji Ran to resign as Prime Minister.

After the discussion, King Yangyue said seemingly casually: "Feng Jun compiled the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica". I wonder what Dazai thinks about this scripture?"

The book of herbal medicine would not have attracted the attention of King Yang Yue, but the differences between the Shennong clan were too great, and after hearing about it, Yun Yun wanted to give a copy to Yang Yue and Ji Ran. At this time, King Yang Yue had a question.

Ji Ran thought.

"King, this book is of great use... Its early herbal medicine talk is not systematic. Most of it is the records of the mountains and the past of the characters. There are only a few sporadic words that can be seen as medicine and medicine."

"Now that Fengjun is integrated, if there are medical practitioners, they can get started here and study injuries and illnesses, and simple cold and heat can also be easily treated with herbal medicine..."

Ji Ran was full of praise for Feng Yun's compilation of "Shen Nong's Materia Medica".

As the king of a barbaric land, the King of Yangyue had close contact with the mountains and wild lands. He knew that injuries were treated with witchcraft medicine and herbs, but he did not understand its pharmacology or its effects.

I don’t have much praise for this book.

He just rejoiced: "Fortunately, it's the Shennong clan..."

Why Feng Yun was able to show off his authority in Yu Yue in the first place was not because he understood the ancestor of Yu Yue and wrote the "Ode to Dayu", summoning the White Fox and the Dayu in the opposite direction, so that the people of Yuyue respected him and the country did not dare to move. Him!

Just saying...

"boom!"

There was a shaking outside the hall.

Only a deafening sound was heard, and rich rosy light poured out of the window.

As the light shone, the servants in the palace and Ji Ran and King Yangyue sitting at the low table felt that their whole bodies felt extremely comfortable from the inside out.

"What happened!"

King Yang Yue was stunned and quickly got up.

Ji Ran also went out of the palace with him.

"Xuan...Xuanyuan Ancestor!" King Yang Yue looked at the huge phantom in the sky, standing high among the colorful clouds, faceless but intimidating, and exclaimed in panic.

"Descendants of Shang Tang, kings of the Yang family, bow down to our ancestors!"

King Yangyue didn't care about anything at this time. He hurriedly knelt down and worshiped.

And as he knelt down and worshiped, the fortune of the entire Yangyue Kingdom also rose one after another, forming a shadow behind him and bowing before the Yellow Emperor.

And the people of Yangyue had already knelt down and worshiped all over the ground.

If the clan is stable, there will be no one in the world who violates it.

Although the common people have no clans, they are divided into citizens and tribes at this time!

Ji Ran is also kneeling on the ground now. He is from the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty can be said to be the largest country of Shang Tang survivors. How dare you disrespect Xuanyuan.

"Buzz!"

After a short time of kneeling and worshiping, the strange appearance gradually disappeared.

There was no need for Ji Ran to look at Qi, King Yang Yue said: "Go to Lord Feng quickly and ask why?"

Ji Ran took the order and hurried over.

"A few days ago, it was Ancestor Shen Nong, and now it is Ancestor Xuanyuan... What exactly is Feng Lord?"

Ji Ran was confused. From ancient times to the present, which sage could be so changeable.

When he heard about Feng Jun earlier, he thought that Feng Yun had the virtue of controlling water.

Later, he heard that Feng Jun summoned Fu Xihe Tu to repel Yu Yue's invasion and killed Yue Jun with his anger. He thought it was the righteousness of an angry soldier.

When he was in Baiyue, he was also the prime minister of the country, governing a country, and he thought it was the administration of the country.

But Feng Yun also formed a relationship with the four countries to restrain Yang Yue, and thought it was a diplomatic statement.

And now.

"Medicine's mercy?"

Ji Ran doesn't dare to say for sure.

But he didn't know that Feng Yunxing had a way of observing, dealing with, and controlling the world.

The so-called gates of all wonders are united into Xuan.

The so-called virtue, righteousness, government, speech, and kindness are all among the wonderful things.

Unbeknownst to Ji Ran, Feng Yun also practiced the Five Elements, Yin and Yang, Agriculture, History, and Witch Doctor Studies.

All in all, what people in the world need, think about, and use are all wonderful things. Feng Yun also needs, thinks about, and uses them to achieve the mysterious things.

"Fengjun..."

Ji Ran hurried to the Palace of Classics and hurried in.

Feng Yun, who was in the palace, had already expected it. He handed over the book copied by Zou Yan and said: "This is the words of the Yellow Emperor in Yu Yiyang's palace of classics, plus many medical complaints, to complete the compilation. It’s called the Yellow Emperor’s Internal Classic.”

"It is still incomplete, but it inherits the lineage of Huangdi, so it can be regarded as the study of Huangdi."

Hand the Nei Jing to Ji Ran.

"This will be handed over to Da Zai. Da Zai can copy it himself so that it can be made famous in Guangdong."

If Ji Ran hears it and gets approval from Xuanyuan Ancestor, no matter what its content is, it will definitely be of great benefit.

He bowed and said, "Feng Jun is generous. This book will be properly preserved. Even if it is passed on to Yangyue, it will not be indiscriminately learned from others."

Abuse of learning…

Feng Yun had no objection to anyone learning from it.

Books...can't be learned by just reading. For these medical theories, Feng Yun only knows their roots and records what he knows. Later, he needs to be supplemented by proficient people to make them complete.

"Yan... follow me to Yangyue City to have a look."

Zou Yan, who was in the hall, heard the sound and hurriedly got up to follow.

In fact, he now wants to study the "Huangdi Neijing" more carefully.

In his "Luck Chapter", there are a lot of words about yin and yang, five elements, and breath, which are complementary and extended to the "Nuwa Ten-month Calendar" he learned.

"Study with moderation and don't tire yourself." He rubbed Zou Yan's little head.

Zou Yan felt a breath of air pouring in from the top of his head, sweeping across his brows and eyes softly, clearing up his groggy mind.

"Sitting for a long time and thinking too much, but not practicing it, what is the use of learning... We originally wanted to see what the state of Yangyue was like, but we were delayed because of this medical classic."

Hearing the sound, Zou Yan nodded.

When Ji Ran heard about it, he also said: "I took a look at Yang Yue with Mr. Yu."

Feng Yun shook his head.

"Da Zai can go and report to King Yangyue, I can just walk away as I please."

Ji Ran thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Ji Ran left.

Only then did Zou Yan hope. He stared at Feng Yun with bright black pupils and said, "Master, did you just use the luck method in the Nei Jing?"

"Can you teach Yan, Yan also wants to learn the Qi of the Five Elements!"

Feng Yun chuckled.

"You haven't laid the foundation yet, how can I teach you?"

"Let's read more first. If I don't teach you, you can learn it yourself."

After hearing this, Zou Yan pouted.

Feng Yun added: "If you have time, you can make another copy of the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic and read it yourself."

Zou Yan was delighted and nodded frequently.

After leaving the Palace of Classics, Manwa heard the sound and came to guard Feng Yun.

"Fengjun, there is snow on the road, do you want to arrange a carriage?"

Feng Yun shook his head at Manwa.

"The carriage has wheels, but the underground people cannot be seen on the wheels. The carriage has walls, and it is difficult to see outside the window from inside the walls. I can just walk."

Often the national conditions of a country best reflect its system.

Today's Yangyue cannot expand eastward, and Jingchu is watching in the west.

The only extension is to the north and south.

To the north are the kingdoms of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so there are many concerns.

To the south lies the depths of Vietnam, which is quite desolate.

If you want to expand, you must first secure the country and the people, otherwise there will be no troops to advance and no troops to defend.

Perhaps it was because of the statue of the Yellow Emperor that we just saw. There were many Yangyue people chatting up and down the street, and they did not go back to their houses for a long time.

When Feng Yun and others passed by, people around him frequently came to look.

But with the big man like Manwa intimidating him, no one dared to attack.

Why do you say you dare to attack?

"Master, those people have greedy eyes, I'm afraid they are thieves."

Zou Yan pulled the tiger skin cloak that Feng Yun was wearing. Under the cloak was cloth that was difficult for ordinary people to touch, but it was less gorgeous than the nobles. This made the people regard Feng Yun and others as rich people.

If you are not a noble person, you can be bullied.

Feng Yun followed Zou Yan's gaze and frowned slightly.

And Manwa was even more expressionless, and those few people hurriedly fled.

"Go to the broken road." Feng Yun ordered, leading Manwa and Zou Yan towards a poorer place.

"Dong dong dong!" There was a knock on the door.

"Uncle Yuan, please save my family..."

"Luo Gu, please lend me some more food in case Xuanyuan Ancestor appears..."

A sound of sobbing came from the alley along with the words of pleading.

"call!"

It's going to snow again.

The wind blew by, and tiny snowflakes fell on the corners of Feng Yun's eyes, melting and sliding down.

"Master, it's a child." Zou Yan stepped forward, looked over the low wall, and saw a young child, wearing thin clothes, kneeling in front of a house, kowtowing affectionately.

"Is there a shortage of food in the winter in Guangdong?" Manwa murmured.

Feng Yun nodded.

He had learned about Yangyue in advance. Although there was farming, it was not a long-term residence. Farming was sparse and the people at the bottom did not have strict agricultural supervision. Lack of food and clothing was the norm.

"What is lacking is not food, let alone land, but farming order and helping people's livelihood."

"Master, do we want to help him?" Zou Yan asked when Feng Yun stopped.

Feng Yun hasn't answered yet.

The child in the low wall had been paying attention to them for a long time. When he saw that Feng Yun and others were well-dressed and distinguished, and Zou Yan also asked for help, the child hurriedly ran out and knelt down in front of Feng Yun and others.

.

"I hope some of you can help my family, and I'd like to be a slave to thank you."

Feng Yun thought for a moment.

"What happened to your family?"

Bang replied hurriedly: "Bang's family is short of food and there are many people in the family. Now it is no longer possible to continue."

Feng Yun asked again: "Why are you short of food? Why don't you go hunting?"

Feng Yun remembered that Yangyue also had hunting habits, and many people in Yangyue would go hunting to make a living.

The list was slightly stunned.

"Bang... Bang's young son Tian, ​​Bang's father has never learned hunting."

Feng Yun was surprised.

"When there is no shortage of food, what does your family rely on for survival?"

Bangnana.

"There is never a time when the Bang family is not short of food... Normally, my grandmother washes clothes, mends clothes, and weaves cloth to make a living."

Feng Yun looked at this child, who looked about eight or nine years old, but was thin and frail, so he should actually be older.

"There are many people in the family, how many are there?"

After hearing the sound, name them one by one.

He has a father, a mother, and two brothers. His uncle died during the war, Zhong Shiba, and he is his uncle. He has fourteen, and there are two more brothers under him, and three daughters, a total of ten people.

But at this time, my mother was seriously ill and it was difficult to make a living by sewing, so the family was deprived of money.

Hearing this, Feng Yun frowned slightly.

“Guangdong is promoting more cultivated land, so why not cultivate more?”

"If you have many children in your family, why don't you learn to hunt?"

"If the father is not the breadwinner of the family, the children in the family will depend entirely on the mother's work for their livelihood..."

Hearing the sound, Bang hurriedly said: "No, it's not... My father said that the newly plowed fields are short of food, and there are too many wars. Sooner or later, the king will have to recruit troops, and then the second brother will also go to the battlefield. At that time, there will not be enough food in the family.

Working hard to plow new fields is a waste of energy. It is better to mend and wash with mother..."

"As for hunting, my father said it is dangerous and he is afraid of being eaten by wild beasts..."

The more Bang spoke, the quieter he became, because after his mother became ill, sewing and washing was no longer enough to support their livelihood.

Feng Yun shook his head. This father was just lazy and irresponsible. When he was in the court, Feng Yun's sister-in-law could cultivate several fields by herself, let alone one man.

Hunting is dangerous, but is it safe to go to the battlefield?

I was just worried that my second son would be killed by an animal, and my third son would be young enough to join the army.

Seeing Feng Yun shaking his head, Bang Bang was extremely disappointed, thinking that Feng Yun was unwilling to help them.

Feng Yun saw that the child was confused, but he seemed to want to borrow food from another family.

Feng Yun sighed.

"Let's go, there's no need to watch."

Hearing this, Manwa didn't say anything, but looking at the child kneeling in the snow, there was unbearability in his eyes.

However, he had often seen people starve to death, but this was the first time he had seen such a large family member starve to death, which made him a little confused.

Zou Yan on the side said: "Master, don't we help them?"

Zou Yan thought that with just one word, he could get some food from the Palace of Classics and save the family.

Manwa also looked at Feng Yun carefully.

Feng Yun looked into the distance. As he approached the Palace of Classics, the houses became more tidy and orderly. He said lightly: "I respect the people and respect the people's choices."

"Ah?" Zou Yan doesn't understand, and neither does Manwa.

Zou Yan thought hard and seemed to have some understanding.

He struggled and said: "Master, are you saying that it's your own fault?"

Hearing this, Feng Yun nodded, but then sighed slightly and shook his head.

"Those who are big people rely on their abilities to live without worries about food and clothing; those who are small people live in misery because of their own degradation."

"To govern a country and its people, one does not have to cut meat into mince, chew rice into paste, and use one's body to feed..."

"As Heaven moves forward, the human race should continue to strive for self-improvement..."

"How to govern the country..."

"Isn't it just to use policies to expand the country's world, strengthen the country's city walls, and allow the people to stay within the rules and have more choices in life..."

“And what about governing the people?”

"Isn't it just the heart of calming the people, the wisdom of the people, and the act of letting the people... let the people live and work in peace and contentment?"

Feng Yun did not mention the monarch, but only the country and the people.

"If a person seeks death and commits suicide, can you stop him for a while, maybe for the rest of his life?"

Without waiting for Zou Yan and Man Wa to reply, Feng Yun said: "I can't do it, don't want to, and won't do it..."

"There are so many people in the world that they are suffering. No matter who is innocent, we should not pity them when they are weak, and resist them when they are not strong. We should understand the feelings of the world, the principles of dealing with the world, and the virtue of governing the world to solve them."

Having already arrived in front of the Palace of Classics, Feng Yun took a detour.

He looked towards the Yangyue Palace.

"The number of choices the people have is determined by the size of the country's world..."

"All I can do is expand the world and inform the people of the scope of the world, allowing the people to make their own choices. The life and death of the people is not within the scope of my consideration."
