History of the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 166 Yu Qiang·Visualization Method (Four Thousand Three)

Seeing this, Gongsun Ao smiled and said: "You captured Mr. Feng because of your personal strength. You can praise him for a long time, and Mr. Feng will remember him for a long time."

"but……"

"Fengjun's true strength is wisdom and virtue. This is something Sima has not been able to defeat."

Zhaoyang was nervous and shook his head slowly: "Fengjun is brave and brave, so you can't underestimate him. Even with the help of the army, you can't easily defeat him."

"We were able to capture Mr. Feng because Mr. Feng had a kind heart. He hesitated to save the attendant and gave Yu a chance. At the same time, he didn't know much about Yu Wuxiang. For this reason, Yu also exchanged his injuries for injuries."

When Sun Shuao heard this, thoughts flashed in his eyes, but he still shook his head and sighed with a smile: "The matter has come to this, and there is no way to go back. A man of great wisdom will not forget the benefits and risks of the future just because he is worried about the gains and losses of the past."

As he spoke, Sun Shuao lowered his head, suppressed his smile, and sighed again.

"When Master Qu returned from his mission, he relayed the words of Lord Feng. Feng Yun also did not want to harm the people and cause war, so he did not want to help the Lord lead the way to Guangdong."

"It was obvious at that time that he had a kind heart, but he also angered the king."

"Your Majesty ordered to continue sending grain to Baiyue in the hope that the disaster would be diverted to the east. However, Lord Feng is capable and can resolve it easily..."

"To capture Lord Feng at this time, if the Lord's past temperament had been followed, ordinary nobles would have been expelled, exiled, and imprisoned for crimes. How could they still live in the Palace of Classics and treat each other with courtesy?"

"This is your great wisdom, and it is also a concept of the overall situation."

"The countries that Yang Yue and the countries east of Yang Yue as far as the sea of ​​Yu Yue all respect Feng Jun for his virtues in controlling water and his capable ministers, and there are countless people who trust him. If Feng Jun dies at the hands of his superiors,

, compared with the praise..."

Sun Shuao stopped talking and laughed twice, not wanting to talk about this matter anymore.

Then he changed his voice and said: "In addition to being wise and wise, Mr. Feng also has virtues in dealing with the world. From his many remarks and actions, you can see his heart for the people."

"At this moment, the Chu State's attack on Yangyue cannot be changed. If the monarch makes a mistake, the three kingdoms may suffer another disaster for the country and the people. So Sima had better go to the Palace of Classics and ask Lord Feng. Lord Feng

For the sake of the people’s safety, I must tell you everything I know.”

Zhaoyang woke up from Sun Shuao's words, behaved politely, and left.

…

When Zhaoyang walked back, Sun Shuao couldn't stop sighing.

"It's trivial for Lord Chu to conquer Chu himself, but it's more difficult for Lord Feng to keep Chu... Sigh..."

"With this praise, the former king of Bao State, in order to stabilize the trust between Bao State and the Zhou royal family, gave way to Zi Baogu, and recommended himself to be sent to E as an envoy to suppress Guangdong. But at this time... alas, Fei Wu

Taboo, it’s a villain’s plan that will bring disaster to the king.”

"Alas..." Sun Shuao sighed again, because the matter was a foregone conclusion and he had no way to reverse it. He was also a very wise man, so he also looked back.

"... Lord Feng came to Chu, it was so unfortunate, and he found out about it. What is his attitude now?"

"This is something that the king and I are worried about. Killing Baoxiang would be rude to the king and his ministers. However, Chu State can also expand eastward and benefit for hundreds of years. Even if he scolds us a hundred years later, why bother? Killing

Killing means killing. It is over. As long as the Chu State treats its people favorably at home and is tough on the outside, there will be no civil disasters."

"But by killing Lord Feng, how can the Chu State appease those who respect the name of Lord Feng?"

"The virtuous people of ancient times can be remembered by people today..."

"If it is like killing Baoxiang, even if Chu wants to occupy Yangyue and points its sword at the countries east of Chu, the obstacles will be unimaginable. I am afraid that as long as there are villains in mind, they will only need to be promoted as

With the name of Lord Feng, you can raise an army of righteousness in the country..."

"And overseas, they can also use this opportunity to kill the virtuous and destroy the virtues to attack Chu Ju..."

"Sigh... Mr. Feng, this really creates a big problem for Chu State..."

Sun Shuao knew that there was no airtight place in the world, and Baoxiang's death would inevitably be exposed. At the same time, Chu Jun also knew this, but Chu Jun still did it, because it was worth it for Chu State, and a generation of monarchs and ministers would bear it...

But Feng Yun is different. He is a virtuous person. He has a state in Baiyue, has the virtue of water management in Yuyue, has the Feng clan in Wu, and has sages spread far and wide in the southern countries...

Even in the Chu State, there were many people like Qu Yuan and Zhao Yang who had good intentions toward Feng Yun and recognized his virtues.

At this time, let alone killing him, even not treating him politely will be a stain on the monarch, and he will be doubted at home and cursed abroad... Unless Chu no longer agrees with the "Zhou Rites" and is not afraid of the "Zhou Rites"

.

But at this time, the Chu State was still busy with the little Viscount of Zhou. The domestic nobles, officials, clans and dignitaries were all similar. As the capital of rituals and music, Zeng State regarded rituals and music as the most elegant!

Looking out the window, seeing the lonely moon in the dark night, Sun Shuao closed his eyes and sighed for a long time...

Even if it is Feng Yun, it is also the current situation of Chu State...

…

It was night, and Feng Yun, who was far away in the palace of classics, was covered with a blanket and looked at the moon outside the window for a long time.

At this time, human voices were heard.

"Yu Zhaoyang, pay homage to Mr. Feng, disturb Mr. Feng, and look at Haihan."

Feng Yun moved his eyes towards the moonlight, looking at the person coming.

"Commander Zhaoyang is also injured and is no longer recovering. What are you doing here?"

Zhaoyang was running around so much, his face was pale, and his cold, arrogant and lonely look became more and more severe, but Feng Yun also saw the hurry and urgency hidden in his eyes, and understood that something was looking for him.

"Master Feng, please enter, Lord Chu..."

When the general Chu army wanted to conquer the army himself, Bao Xiang died, and Sun Shuao asked him to come to find him, he explained everything one by one. Zhaoyang looked at Feng Yun.

Just like what Sun Shuao said, Feng Yun did not regret being captured because of this and ignored the subsequent events.

Feng Yun was thinking about what would happen if the King of Chu conquered the army himself.

"Commander Zhaoyang is sincere."

Of course, Feng Yun also knew that he was under guard at this time and it was difficult to spread the news. He also knew about his death, including some trivial matters.

"Mr. Sun Shuao, do you have any opinions on the king's personal conquest?"

Zhaoyang shook his head: "Sir, he did not reject it. He just said that he is an official of internal affairs and will not participate in important military affairs. He cannot dissuade the king from the idea of ​​​​conquest personally at this time."

"Mr. Sun Shuao is sober."

But Feng Yun is also very sober.

Sun Shuao lamented that the king's scruples and his watching the moonlight had been sorted out.

He couldn't help but thought: No one in the world dares to disobey the power of "Zhou Rites". He, Feng Yun, can be considered a virtuous person, but he can be cared about by the king of a country.

Think about it...

Feng Yun said to Zhaoyang: "When I was at the border of Aidi, I captured the city of Ai in ancient Ai without losing a single soldier."

"Ai City was the capital of ancient Ai. At this time, the Chu State wanted to attack the capital of Yangyue. The methods used were different, but they were all fights between people, and human nature can be explored."

Zhaoyang had already heard about this matter.

At the same time, without hurting anyone, they captured the city and allowed the Gu Ai clan who were originally in the city to leave. The Gu Ai people did not resist, were grateful, and accepted Feng Yun's subsequent internal affairs strategy. This is also the state of Chu.

A place that many people are amazed by.

He respected him and believed that this was a manifestation of Feng Yun's talent and virtue in military and political affairs.

With the Chu State, he conquered barbarians from many countries and practiced barbaric methods. This was the pioneering method longed for by the scholar-bureaucrats and dignitaries of the Chu State.

Feng Yun continued: "At that time, the King of Baiyue was always in the rear. Even if the situation was good, he would not go into battle. At this time, I thought about it, not only because of the king's trust, but also because he did not want to anger the Guai clan and cause casualties in the war."

"After all, everyone in the world is prepared for danger in times of peace. If there is a way out, they will not try their best. Life is at stake... let alone a clan?"

"When the king goes to war, the king of ancient Ai must go to war. It is a battle with no retreat, king against king. If there is no king to the king, the king will have no power, the people will be disappointed, the country will not generalize, and the clan will undoubtedly die."

"Based on this principle, let's look at Chu and Yangyue..."

"I once met King Yangyue. Although he is simple and honest, he is also a descendant of the Shang Dynasty. He has his own inheritance and his ancestral hall."

"When the situation in the Chu Kingdom was excellent, the King of Chu personally attacked the capital of Yangyue in one fell swoop, which was no less than King Wu of Zhou entering the Shang capital. As for Yangyue, he must return to the king's war, destroy the country, and mobilize the whole country to fight against Chu.

"

"Kings fight against kings, and the wars continue for a long time. The two countries are involved, which brings suffering to the people and harms their hearts."

"Even if the Chu State captured Yangyue...because there were countless casualties in the war between the two countries, the Yangyue people hated the Chu people for invading and brutally killing my relatives, while the Chu people hated the Yangyue people for resisting stubbornly and killing my relatives."

"When will we be able to retaliate against wrongs?"

"It has accumulated public resentment for a long time. The larger the Chu land, the more obvious it is that it is falling apart."

Feng Yun gently rubbed the center of his eyebrows. He used his weak literary skills to observe the world and stared at the battle between Chu and Yangyue. The two kings faced each other. The battle was fierce and their arrogance became more and more powerful!

The people of the Southland have a bad temper, which is usually not seen. But in times of crisis, they can be whispered to by others, and their tenacity is even more unstoppable by others.

And in the end, the method of observing the world stopped - Yangyue was defeated, the Yangyue nobles were captured and became slaves, and more people sneaked into the mountains and wilderness...

And most of the people also fled to the mountains because of their hatred of Chu...

Some of the Yangyue people living in the mountains fled Yangyue and went to other countries to survive, but most of them followed the remaining nobles of Yangyue and waited for the opportunity to retaliate against the Chu State, causing more disasters.

When the literary energy is exhausted, the world view ends...

He said no more.

But Zhaoyang was sluggish, and it took him a long time to understand Feng Yun's words - if Chu Jun personally conquered it, Yangyue would definitely resist to the end, and the two countries would probably continue to fight for a long time. The more they fight, the greater their hatred. Even if they can win, Yangyue people will also

They will continue to resist in the years to come, and the hidden dangers are extremely huge.

"Why is the king's personal conquest so dangerous?"

Feng Yun nodded slowly.

"Unless the king wants to massacre the city, it is best not to engage in such an unknown battle."

The teacher was unknown, why was he unknown? Zhaoyang was too shy to speak.

As for massacre, that is even more impossible.

"Fengjun, do you still want to ask me for advice?" Zhaoyang bowed.

Feng Yun shook his head: "Not in his position, not seeking his position, I said that the danger of Chu Jun's personal expedition is that as a human being, he does not want to lose his life, let the people of the two countries fight to death, and the hatred will not end."

"As for thinking about how to solve it... Commander Zhaoyang has forgotten. As long as Lord Chu doesn't go to the expedition himself, can't he avoid this matter?"

Only then did Zhaoyang remember that he came to find Feng Yun to persuade the king to give up the idea of ​​​​conquering the country himself.

"Then I will go and tell Lord Chu what Lord Feng said?"

Feng Yun laughed.

At the beginning, even if Feng Yun was not the Prime Minister of Baiyue, he could still command the whole of Baiyue. It was because of his prestige and achievements that he was trusted by the people of Baiyue.

But is it possible for Chu State to have such power?

Feng Yun was not sure, but he was certain that Lord Chu would not allow such an existence to appear.

The purpose of this personal expedition was to seize this easy achievement so as not to fall into the hands of others.

What are others—the rest of the clansmen of Chu State.

You must know that in the Chu State at this time, the people in high positions were all from famous families in Chu State. If such a great achievement fell into the hands of any high-ranking person, it would affect the authority of the Chu King.

"If the commander-in-chief is so determined, he can find a retired veteran who is still handsome and talented, let him serve as an official again and serve as the king, and then resign from his important position... How to do this is not what I need to think about."

The King of Chu could not tolerate an old man who resigned from his official position. That Chu country was petty, so there was no need to say anything.

Zhaoyang was born into a powerful person in the Chu Kingdom. He was born with the knowledge of the powerful class. Although he was thirty years old, he had been on the battlefield for a long time. He could not understand the complex thoughts of the Chu King clearly in the dynasty.

But Sun Shuao was sober. Although he was from a noble family, he could be said to have come from a poor family. He knew better than ordinary people what the powerful class of Chu State looked like, so he had a clear idea of ​​the Chu king's thoughts.

Feng Yun didn't want to go into details.

"Commander Zhaoyang, it's better to leave as soon as possible. The water is cold at night. Don't hurt your roots. Ahem..."

Zhaoyang looked ashamed.

"Forgive me, Mr. Feng. Zhaoyang has no order from the king, so I can't solve the spirit turtle pattern for Mr. Feng for the time being. However, Zhaoyang will send a picture tomorrow, which may be able to relieve Mr. Feng's ice cold."

After saying that, Zhaoyang bowed his head and left, seemingly going to do what Feng Yun said.

Feng Yun exhaled.

"picture?"

...Yu Qiangtu?

Feng Yun slept lightly, with the art of cultivating the Tao in his mind for a long time. He unloaded the "River Map" and began to outline in it the military minister Yu Qiang he saw during the close battle with Zhaoyang.

In this way.

If you want to break his technique, learn his technique and reverse it.

Zhaoyang's words gave Feng Yun a new way to crack the peach poison besides peach poison.

At the same time, Feng Yun also wanted to see what the martial arts was like, but he had never seen it before. I'm afraid it was a technique unique to Chu State.

"boom!"

In his mind, when Yu Qiangxiang was sketched out, Zhongdao whispered, and his entire consciousness fell into the darkness.

"Dang!" The ice cubes fell to the hard ground and broke into pieces.

The sound was endless, and Feng Yun looked far away and seemed to see a ray of light. He touched the surroundings and felt as if he was between glaciers, as dark as an abyss.

After walking for a long time, I finally looked for the dim light around the corner and saw the faint light refracted, illuminating a section of the road ahead.

This road leads to a huge deep pool, with the dark light from all around shining on it, and on the lake, there is a giant tortoise, its whole body is cold, and there is a spiritual snake on its tortoise shell.

This is exactly the same as the turtle pattern on Feng Yun's waist.

"Woo..." The spirit turtle raised its head and looked at Feng Yun, its voice was high and its whine was loud and clear.

As Feng Yun approached, the spirit snake on the turtle's back breathed out, the water pool froze, and an ice bridge appeared.

Arriving in front of the spirit turtle, the spirit turtle let Feng Yun look at it.

Feng Yun can see various lines and patterns on the turtle's body, which are faintly shining, showing its extraordinary appearance.

The turtle and the snake on its back were all very surprised by Feng Yun.

The spiritual snake lowered its head, preparing to be intimate...

But when Feng Yun was about to get in touch, the surrounding environment collapsed...

"Fengjun, Admiral Jingyang is coming to look for..."

Feng Yun opened his eyes and saw him kowtow in front of the collapse under the morning light.

"Get up and go find some hot water while I wash up."

"promise…"

Just now, someone was approaching, and the Taoist technique awakened his consciousness, causing the dream realm to shatter and disappear.

But in the way of cultivation, the appearance of the tortoise and the snake in the "Yu Qiang Picture" has a slightly bright mysterious energy, which gives birth to a trace of cold energy, which is used by Feng Yun.

This cold air is similar to the cold air of Zhaoyang Wuxiang, but they have the same origin but different owners.

"That's it, you can get mysteries from visualization."

Feng Yun also understood that Zhaoyang's military appearance was visualized from Yu Qiang's diagram.

After the cold air that Feng Yun can control overpowers the cold air around his waist, he can swallow this part of the power and break the seal.

…

After sorting things out, Feng Yun invited Jingyang into the side hall.

"Admiral Jingyang, what's the matter with you here?"

Feng Yun looked around and saw Jingyang with a reluctant look on his face and a scroll in his hand.

Behind him, there was also an acquaintance of Feng Yun - Qu Yuan.
