Chapter 488: Compared to him, what kind of character am I?
Chapter 488 – Compared to him, what kind of character can I be?
The entire street is densely packed with people, merchants and businessmen have all become silent with the kneeling of Da Duke Song, with shock written all over their faces.
They could accept Grand Duke Song’s lack of evil, but they really couldn’t accept Grand Duke Song’s humble kneeling.
For the ten thousand miles around Fufeng, Grand Duke Song was the sky, the real sky, more intimidating than the emperor of the capital, and by no means comparable to the second-generation official like Grand Duke Song, who was bullying people and spouting nonsense.
This made them feel awe in their bones, however, when the great man that they feared to the core suddenly collapsed, it was hard not to make them feel a trace of bewilderment.
So, who was the person he was kneeling to?
Grand Duke Song was also curious to know who this person was!
He even inexplicably felt some panic, a kind of panic about the unknown. Impression of uncle on all things are wise, the depth of the mind simply can not guess, no matter how big the face of the wind and waves, but also always frank and calm, in a moment to cover the hands for rain, but he …… why kneel?
“Uncle, why?” He couldn’t help but lower his voice and asked through clenched teeth, “Is there anything else that you are afraid of? Who is he?”
Who is he?
Song Lao Chu couldn’t help but ask himself as well.
He …… is the strange man who guided his life to the light, the ruler he assisted, the emperor he felt the most regret in his life.
Think of these hundreds of years Confucianism was abandoned by all the kings of the world as if it were my own, the ancient times of Confucianism hundreds of millions of children of the heyday has long been in the past, today’s world, there are only three thousand Confucian students left to languish, can not see half a hope!
Until the emergence of this West Qin County King, he does not hate Confucianism, he does not begrudge and appointments.
Prior to this, their own study of Confucianism for decades, in the end, an ambition can not be carried out, a body of learning can only be closed door, how frustrating and helpless.
Those years of misery, sadness, and even the favorite roasted knife and roasted chicken has become a luxury.
It was his good friend Taishang Gong introduced him to the king of West Qin County, the king not only courtesy of the scholar, extremely scholarly courtesy, but also the first time to give him the highest rights – the strategy of the ten countries in the Western Region.
His ambition and talent were finally realized, and he found the true meaning of his life! A scholar dies for a friend, Jiang Yuqing is not only his king, but also his confidant.
In the years that followed, he was deeply impressed by Jiang Yuqing’s skill, ability to rule the country, military prowess, talent in martial arts, way of strategizing, and literary attainments!
He witnessed the rise of Western Qin, the prosperity of Western Qin, and the might of Western Qin!
Of course, there was definitely a part of him here!
Many nights, he couldn’t help but look up to the sky and laugh: “This is a true husband!”
Until the West Qin soldiers front to suppress the four seas, dare to pull the emperor down …… until the young Qin Wang Wang His Highness disappeared in the moment column mountain, the princely ……
At that moment he was confused, his heart was full of uncertainty and loss, life suddenly has no goal, to the king of the ancient saint is the most noble illusion of the Confucian disciples, just the king is gone, what is the meaning of life?
His second year also into the moment column mountain, in addition to the breakthrough of the earth immortal, but also in order to go in to find a look for his highness, no, not in. Even if he was lucky enough to become an Earth Immortal, he always felt that something was missing somewhere.
Since then, Western Qin and Great Zhou unity, he did a high official, did the Secretary, to the highest position of Confucian disciples, but still often feel where there is something missing.
So, he finally abandoned the dream, became a political bureaucrat with the tide of the Great Zhou, exclude dissenters, pander to the top, and do everything.
The dragon slayer finally became an evil dragon one day!
But now ……
This former king, is back again!
However, the original Western Qin is gone.
He was confused, panicked, overwhelmed, and even fearful, and only bowed with his head.
“Uncle, I’m asking you!” Grand Duke Song gritted his teeth and whispered again.
“No need to ask, he can’t tell.”
The king was already “dead”, as a mature politician, he would never take the risk of pointing out his identity before understanding the cause of everything and his own thoughts, Xin Zhuo got up and walked to Song Lao Chu, patting him on the shoulder: “Lao Chu ah, you’ve lost weight in the past few years!”
Song Lao Chu raised his head and instantly burst into tears, choking, unable to say a word. Song Da Duke looked at his uncle and then looked at Xin Zhuo, a person’s name suddenly appeared in his mind, he finally reacted, his face changed drastically, all the arrogance and domineering instantly disappeared, humble and cowardly prostrate on the ground, his head did not dare to raise, quail general trembling.
It is not that he reacted a beat slower, it is really that the big man he has never met has long been dead for many years, which is recognized by the whole world, he momentarily turned a corner.
But at this moment, besides this explanation, was there any other reason?
Compared to this big man, uncle really does not count for anything, and what does he count for?
Just now he said that no one can save him words, really is a joke, this is enough to make him panic!
Xin Zhuo felt bored and patted Grand Duke Song, pointing to the clothes on his body.
“Good!”
Grand Duke Song understood, nimbly took off the two hundred taels worth of brocade robes on his body, kneeling forward, hands raised high, with a meaty fawning smile on his face: “Please smile!”
Then by a foot heavily stepped on his head, he subconsciously gulped, did not dare to move a single inch, face to the ground, still with a fawning and humble smile.
Xin Zhuo took the clothes and put them on himself, casually said: “Duke Song, help me pay for the noodles, in addition, the official or don’t do it, go back to be a landowner, marry a daughter-in-law, read fifty years of books, remember, in the future to be more low-key, today didn’t die, it’s already a mercy for you.”
After saying that, the figure flashed, disappeared in the original place.
Song Lao Chu got up, glanced at his own nephew who raised his head with a face of dust and bewilderment: “Do as you are told, or don’t blame the old man for not having licked the calf, slaughtered you a cheap bastard, really spoiled you!”
The figure flashed and disappeared after it.
Duke Song retreated disheveled and sat down on the ground, his face was pale, and only then did he remember how vicious and venomous that group of Western Qin monarchs and ministers were at the time, and then the bean-sized sweat rolled down.
On the contrary, it was the stall owner, Old Yang Tou, who had already regained his senses from some kind of extreme shock, and suddenly kneeled down respectfully, and said word for word in a voice that only he could hear:¡§My servant, Western Qin Turtle Wei Prefecture Baying City magistrate Yang Dacheng pays homage to His Highness the King of Qin, Your Highness, Your Highness, thousands and thousands and thousands of years old!”
……
On the top floor of Fufeng City’s tallest building, the Moon Watch Tower, the wind was blowing and the stars in the sky seemed to be within arm’s reach.
Xin Zhuo was sitting on the glazed tile ridge.
Song Lao Chu respectfully stood aside, full of doubts do not know where to ask from, or …… should not ask.
“I ask you answer well.” Xin Zhuo said.
“Here!” Song Lao Chu immediately bowed.
“After I left, Ji Ying Yue took over Western Qin?”
“Yes. After Your Highness left, the West Qin families, the Western Region nobles, the six military towns, the army and the officialdom were in conflict, Jiang was unable to completely integrate West Qin, resulting in a mutiny in the army and turmoil in the officialdom, which was then single-handedly suppressed by the Princess Wang, and West Qin was then pacified!
Not only that, with the Jiang Clan and Western Qin as the backbone, the Princess has subdued most of the court’s ministers and nobles, and has become the Regent Grand Princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty, emptying the Emperor’s power and ordering the world, and no one dares to disobey!”
“So, after I entered Mount Momentous Lie, Ji Ying Yue began her plan to conquer the world?”
“Yes, in three years it has swept the world!”
“Tell me the truth, how many people are left in the Western Qin Army today?”
“This ……”
Song Lao Chu’s face was bleak and hesitant: “Four, four thousand!”
