one person is right

Chapter 356

"Every man is innocent, but he is guilty."

In the luxurious cabin, Gao Huang's face was solemn.

He said: "You and I belong to the clan of the Qi Kingdom with noble blood. He, Chen Fangqing, belongs to the clan of the Chen Kingdom and presumptuously intervenes in the affairs of the ordinary dynasty. Since you and I are in his hands, we will definitely be used! Sigh!"

Gao Maode sat opposite, and said seriously: "Uncle, everything else is easy to talk about, only... you also know that if this matter is leaked, it will not only involve the lives of your relatives and me, but also endanger the peace of Daqi!"

The two fell silent while talking.

"The situation is clear."

In the side cabin, Jian Zong Nanli counted his fingers, and then said to Chen Cuo: "There is a single room under the cabin, and there is a woman living in it. The fate is extraordinary. The people in these ships are all for this woman. Judging from its fate, it involves two emperors of the Gao family and one empress."

"Two emperors are involved, and they should carry the purple energy of the dynasty." Chen Cuo said something, and then changed the topic, "Your Excellency's method of sword heart and mystery, can use the sword as the key to explore the surroundings, it is really exquisite .”

"The sword is a gentleman's weapon! It is sharp and upright, but it is not obvious when it is retracted. It is beautiful and quick to use." Nanli Fuxu smiled and said: "Half of my morality is placed on the sword, and it is condensed when it is extraordinary. Jianwan, after the Taoist foundation has been established, the sword will enter the body, using the method of refining the sword to temper oneself, both internally and externally, the sword's heart is clear."

Chen Cuo said: "If you have a chance, you should ask for advice."

"That's easy," Nan Lishou nodded, and immediately asked, "Fellow Daoist, are you going to visit that woman next?"

"What is she doing?" Chen Cuo shook his head and said, "Whether that woman is precious or a hot potato, I'll leave it to others to worry about."

Nan Li was taken aback for a moment, showing doubts on his face, and said: "From my perspective, the realm of Taoist friends should be on the way to find Dao Nian, in order to make further progress. You went south and captured the clan of the ordinary dynasty, but you don't like this The woman who is favored by luck doesn't care much, could it be that... all these actions are to explore her own Taoism?"

"That's right." Chen Cuo didn't hide it, "My Taoism is quite complicated, and I was about to sort it out. After going through this journey and hearing, there are vaguely two roads in front of me. One is at the top, which is the road of understanding from top to bottom. The road to the bottom is a path of violence from bottom to top. This trip to the south is to take advantage of the war to observe the appearance of the two and then make a choice."

"Top-down and bottom-up? There are actually two paths? It's extremely difficult for an ordinary person to grasp one of them, but fellow Taoists can still be in a dilemma. It's true, it's both admirable and jealous," Nan Li received. As he said that, he suddenly said: "To be honest, my sword sect also has a set of methods to condense the method of Dao Nian, which does not involve the secret of inheritance. If fellow Daoists need it..."

Chen Cuo waved his hand and interrupted the other party: "If you have nothing to do, you must ask for something. I think your Excellency is also a straightforward person, so don't go around in circles. You come here. Why, why don't you just speak up."

"Alright," Nan Lishou went straight in, "I came here this time, I really want to ask fellow Taoists to raise their hands and release those two people who were sealed, and let me take them to Jianzong for interrogation."

Chen Cuo frowned, and said: "Since those two people have been suppressed, you want me to let them go with just one word?"

Nan Li shou said seriously: "I also know that it is unreasonable to let you release people for no reason, but this matter is very involved. If you don't concentrate on the Tao, your own path is not firm, knowing it is ominous, listening to it is useless!"

Having said that, he lowered his voice, stretched out his hand and pointed upwards, and said, "It has something to do with the world!"

Chen Miss smiled and said: "This is interesting. You also know that it is outrageous for me to release people for no reason, but you use the words of the outside world to suppress me. Just now, you used the things of Dao Nian to seduce you. It seems to be a quick talk, but in fact The inner tricks are trying to lead me by the nose, but unfortunately, I don't like this!"

Nan Lishou was taken aback, shook his head and sighed, and said, "I won't hide it from you. I'm here this time, just to test it first. If it doesn't work, someone will come later to ask for the two of you."

"If you really have this ability, why don't you go directly to unblock the two of them?" Chen Cuo waved his hand, "No need to say more, you should go back as soon as possible and tell the people behind you what I said. If you really have any plans, come here and explain in person. Don't make half-covered calculations, it's a bit boring."

Nan Li was taken aback, then sighed, seeing Chen Cuo's normal expression, knowing that persuasion was useless, so he pondered for a moment, then bowed his hands and said goodbye: "In that case, I will bring back the words of fellow Taoist."

When the words fell, he left with the sword.

"He walked so simply, he was in a hurry to report the news..."

Watching Jian Guang disappear into the distance, Chen Cuo closed his eyes and meditated.

"Those two people, if they really came from outside the world, I would have already been involved. The outside world is strange and inexplicable, and the situation in the future will inevitably be complicated. Only cultivation can be relied on, otherwise it will be difficult to save your life, let alone a game. Dao Nian has to make a decision as soon as possible. The order of the world is vast and complicated, and it may not be possible to achieve it with a lifetime of effort, but it is enough to condense Dao Nian to separate more than a dozen paths and choose one or two from them. Right now, the dispute between the Three Kingdoms is close at hand , just apply to two..."

But he didn't deceive Nan Lishou, he just concealed more than a dozen choices.

For the next three days, Chen Cuo sat on the boat, drifted with the current, and went down the river without any interference. When he saw the coastal cities, he would call Gao Maode over to ask about the customs on both sides of the river.

The people on and off these ships were not relieved because Chen Cuo didn't ask questions, but became more and more uneasy. Even Gao Huang, the king of Rencheng, began to feel a little restless.

On the night of the third day, when he saw Gao Maode came back, he asked, "Today, Chen Fangqing called you five times. What did he ask?" When he spoke, his expression was very disturbed.

"Same as yesterday, I met several cities along the coast and asked about their origins and backgrounds." When Gao Maode spoke, he also showed a contemplative look, "Uncle also knows that the further you go down, the denser the city and the population. The more you ask, the more frequently you ask."

Gao Huang asked again: "Apart from this, did you ask anything else?"

Gao Maode said: "At noon, a group of refugees gathered on the bank. Chen Fangqing saw me and called me over to ask about the previous war. But I was worried that he had ulterior motives, so I vaguely fooled him and said that the two armies were at war. As a result."

"Refugees? Was it caused by Wu Mingche's Northern Expedition?" Gao Huang frowned, showing dissatisfaction on his face, "In recent years, the corvee tax has been getting less and less, and it can't be collected. Those Han people, please register well. If the people of Qi don't do it, they want to be a refugee, not doing production, but wandering around, not only reducing the court's taxes, but also causing turmoil in the world, it is really hateful! You should not be called people, you should be called thieves!"

Gao Maode was taken aback when he heard this, and then he raised his head and laughed.

Gao Huang said displeased: "What are you laughing at?"

Gao Maode stopped laughing, and suddenly said: "Uncle, could it be that you have forgotten that you are also from the Han family!"

Gao Huang's face was ugly.

Gao Maode followed up and said: "I once heard that there was an emperor in the Jin Dynasty. He was very confused when he heard that the people couldn't eat and was about to starve to death, so he asked around, why didn't the people eat meat porridge? I thought it was absurd at first, but I thought that it was not the posterity who deliberately slandered, or that the emperor himself was a stupid person, but how could a stupid person be chosen as the emperor? After seeing my uncle today, I really understood that the emperor might There is no corresponding concept at all, because he grew up in the deep palace from the beginning to the end, wandering among the powerful, how could he know the sufferings of the people!"

Gao Huang said with a gloomy face: "You said that this king doesn't know the sufferings of the people, but you know that this king has been aware of the people's sentiments all the way!"

"Sitting in this luxurious cabin, drinking rare spiritual tea, and listening to the praises of officials along the way, you are so aware of the people's sentiments?" Gao Maode shook his head, "I didn't understand before, why did Chen Fangqing ask the refugees , now I understand a little bit."

Gao Huang opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly his expression changed and he stopped talking.

Gao Maode's heart moved, and he turned around to look, just in time to see Chen Cuo walking slowly.

"In this case, tell me, why did this refugee come about?" Chen Cuo came to the side of the uncle and nephew, sat down directly, and looked at the two of them.

When Gao Huang saw him sitting down, cold sweat dripped down his forehead, but he maintained a proud expression.

Gao Maode hesitated for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Chen Jun is the god of the great river, and there are so many people on both sides of the river, what can I hide from you?"

Chen Cuo smiled and said: "Even though the great river runs through the east and west, it is only in the north. It is difficult to know the situation in Huainan. I want you, who has experienced it, to tell it."

Gao Huang took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, "If you really want to ask for advice, why do you want to take us into captivity!"

Chen Cuo pointed in front of him: "I don't like red tape, and we don't need to go around in circles. I'm not discussing with you. If you don't want to talk peacefully, I will use other methods."

Gao Huang heard the words, but said nothing.

Gao Maode asked: "What exactly does Mr. Chen want to know?"

Chen Cuo smiled and said: "As a nobleman of the Qi State, you not only bear the title, but also have an official position, and can adjust the yin and yang of one side. Especially when you are the king of the city, I heard that you have also been a prime minister, commanding the situation of the Qi state, and making policies. One word can affect the livelihood of millions of people, and one stroke can determine the situation for decades. The words that are almost supernatural beings follow the law and make the constitution, which is the appearance of shaping and changing the order from top to bottom! To find someone like you People, I don’t know how much work it took, but now I see it on the big river, how can I let it go?”

When Gao Huang and Gao Maode heard the words, their faces changed!
Gao Huang even said with trembling lips: "You...you are really plotting something wrong. As a monk, you want to show your eyes for Chen Guo. You are nothing but a fairy!"

Chen Cuo didn't answer, and said to himself: "You, Gao Maode, said before that wars and disasters spread continuously, affecting the rice paddies and farmland, causing the people to be displaced, and resulting in refugees. You can't explain it clearly."

While speaking, Chen Cuo's vertical eyes slowly opened between his foreheads, and Sen Luo's thoughts drifted away, creating a scene of displaced people around him.

Gao Huang couldn't help trembling.

However, Chen Cuo continued: "Wu Mingche was ordered to go to the Northern Expedition. It took only two months before and after, and he had no more than [-] soldiers and horses. Even if he let go and ruined it, he wouldn't make so many refugees in one go. As we saw along the way, the number of refugees , more than [-]! This is just along the banks of the great river. Looking at the world, the number of refugees is probably inexhaustible! Besides, the Zilai population is the foundation of the dynasty, and he, Wu Mingche, is a famous general of the Chen Kingdom. How can he not understand this truth? What's more He regained his hometown during the Northern Expedition, how could he force his fathers and fellow villagers to flee as refugees?"

Speaking of this, he looked at the two with a smile that was not a smile, and stretched out his hand to grab: "People live in the soil and plow in the ridges of the fields. The reason why they throw away the land and go out to beg for work is naturally in you. .”

"Ahhh!"

Gao Huang screamed, wisps of smoke came out of his body, gathered towards Chen Cuo's hand, and slowly outlined a wat board.

Eight characters are engraved on it——

"Regulate yin and yang, shepherd people."

the other side.

Jianzong Secret Realm.

The mountain peaks are like swords, soaring straight into the sky.

Halfway up the mountain, Nanli fell from the imperial sword, bowed his hands to the sword peak, and reported what he saw and heard this time.

"He really said that?"

From the sword peak, the words of the old man came out, and there was dissatisfaction inside.

Nan Lishou hesitated for a moment, and said: "From my point of view, this Fuyaozi is indeed very talented. If it is not necessary, he should not be hostile. It is better to pass some time..."

"Time doesn't wait! 81 years are fleeting, how can we delay? However, I don't need to be an enemy. He captured the clan of Qi State and reported this matter to the Yin Division. Someone will interfere! You are confused, so don't use this matter." Get over it, get out."
