Chapter 12 Who is the Lord of the Troubled World
Everyone was struggling to get on a boat and drove all day, and in the evening, they were in a battle of robbery, and they still had no food. After a big meal, they all planned to disperse and rest. Zhang Chi also stood up and was about to leave the tent. Miss Wang called Zhang Chi and said softly, "Young Master."
After everyone dispersed, Miss Wang filled a glass of wine for Zhang Chi, and then smiled and said, "Will there be an adventure tonight for young master?"
Zhang Chi knew that Miss Wang Bingxue was smart, as if nothing could escape her ears and ears, so she said straightforwardly: "I met a man named Emei tonight, and she asked me to thank Miss Xie for giving Ma Zhide to her."
"I only know that they are coming, but I didn't expect that the one who came was Emei." Miss Wang said to herself.
"Miss knows Emei?" Zhang Chi asked curiously.
"The 'poor family' has always been secretive in their work. I have only heard of this person in Emei, but I have never seen him." Miss Wang said lightly: "In fact, it doesn't matter if you have seen him or not. What's important is that she can indeed rob these horses."
After a moment of stopping, Ms. Wang continued, "Actually, even if no one robs the horses on the road, I will not let these horses be transported to health. Do you know why this is?"
"Why?" Zhang Chi has always been very strange to this question.
"The young master knows that he is unparalleled in the world, but why is he indifferent to the general trend of the world?" Miss Wang asked without answering.
However, Miss Wang did not want to wait for Zhang Chi to answer, and continued, "The world today is no longer the world of the Sima family, but the world of the wealthy and gentry. The gentry is so powerful that the Sima royal family can not be scruples, so she supports Kuaiji King Sima Daozi and intends to plan for vassal states. My father was appointed as the Minister of Shangshu Zuo Pushe in the court, and also advocated reducing the power of the gentry."
"It is always no good for the people of the world to become separatist." Zhang Chi thought for a while and said.
Miss Wang smiled faintly: "The power of the gentry is overwhelming, and it will lead to a great disaster over time. It is not wrong to reduce the power of the gentry. It's a pity that everything is hasty and can't achieve it."
"The most powerful family members in the world are the Wang, Xie, Yu and Huan families. Before the Feishui War, the Xie family was the most powerful in the court. But after the Feishui War, Xie Xuan was highly rewarded and was excluded. Now the Xie family is no longer as powerful as before, so how can other families not know? Although there is no wind or wave now, as long as this balance is broken, how can the aristocratic family members be willing to make fish?" Miss Wang sighed.
"The court's orders changed every day. Now the king of Kuaiji Sima Daozi is gradually becoming more powerful and is being ignored by the emperor. Therefore, the emperor secretly ordered Wang Gong to command the Northern Palace Army and serve as the governor of Qing and Gun. His purpose is probably to use the Northern Palace Army to fight against the King of Kuaiji."
The intrigue in the officialdom is indeed not very serious, Zhang Chi's thoughts.
"The Northern Palace Army won every battle, which is definitely not a false reputation. The 800,000 troops of Fu Qin were destroyed by 80,000 people. Although many clans are powerful, if they talk about rebellion, they may not be able to catch them. Therefore, the one who disrupts the world can only be the Northern Palace Army, and the one who suppresses the world can only be the Northern Palace Army. I am afraid that as long as the Northern Palace rebels, the aristocratic clans will follow the trend and rebel and take advantage of the troubled waters. At that time, the world will be in chaos."
After talking about this world trend, Zhang Chi couldn't help but nodded. It was indeed a chaotic world, the current situation was turbulent, and the power was wrong and complicated.
"But what does this have to do with these horses?" Zhang Chi asked.
"My father formed a new army to fight against the Northern Army. This batch of war horses is to be equipped with the new army." Miss Wang continued: "Wang Gong is a man of the same age, so why would he miss the opportunity? I am afraid that as soon as these war horses enter Jiankang, the Northern Army will take the initiative soon."
"The new army has just been built, how can we resist the Beifu Army that has been on the battlefield for a long time?" Ms. Wang said without any omission: "Now, all the major gentry, especially the Huan family, and the Yu family are trying their best to instigate Wang Gong. At this time, if the horse is transported back to health, it is probably not that Wang Gong was instigated by the family, but on the contrary, he was forced to rebel by the court."
After listening to these words, Zhang Chi suddenly understood why Du Ximing, who was once the general of the Yamen Guard, never convinced others, but he just obeyed the Miss Wang in front of him.
Miss Wang can be called Zhuge, a girl. She is in the game, but she can see the overall trend of the world so clearly. How many people are there in the world?
Miss Wang sighed and said, "Actually, I knew that the situation today would be there, so I opened a horse trading channel a few years ago to prepare for the war. But how could I think the court was so anxious to form a new army? It is not a good opportunity to transport horses at this moment. So I have to work hard to make these war horses robbed on the road, and I must not transport these war horses to Jiankang."
"Since that's the case, the lady will give the horses tonight when thousands of people come to rob the horses. Why do you have to fight like this?" Zhang Chi was already roughly clear about the situation and asked the last question in his heart.
Miss Wang asked replies without answering: "Do you know the origin of Taoism?"
Zhang Chi has heard of some of the Taoism, but it is better not to say anything about it if you know it a little bit, so Zhang Chi shook his head neatly.
"Taoism has been around for nearly three hundred years since the end of the Han Dynasty, and the world has been in turmoil for nearly three hundred years," Ms. Wang said lightly.
Zhang Chi never thought about this question, "What is the relationship between Taoism and the situation in the world?"
Miss Wang said slowly: "Of course it is related. After the establishment of Taoism at the end of the Han Dynasty, it was jealous of wise kings and unwilling tolerate heroes of the times. Because Taoism despises people's hearts and fools rebelled, the Zhangjiao Yellow Turban Rebellion has opened the prelude to the war in the world."
"Taoism has always been unwilling to those in power, so during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, all the princes in the world attacked Zhang Jiao, and then Cao Cao was expelling Zuo Ci in the north and Sun Ce killed Yu Ji in the south. It was all because Taoism encouraged believers from beginning to end and had to seize the world by force."
Zuo Ci, Yu Ji and Zhang Chi have long heard of it. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I didn’t know how to praise Zuo Ci and Yu Ji. However, what I said from Miss Wang at this time was a completely different statement.
"Cao Cao unified the north and constantly suppressed the Taoist people, and finally there was a short period of peace in the early Jin Dynasty." Miss Wang continued to say lightly: "But it was only these decades, until Taoism started to stir up trouble again. Taoist people Li Xiong was called the King of Chengdu and built the Han Dynasty; Liu Yuan was called the King of Han and established the Kingdom of Zhao, and from then on the world was in chaos again."
"It's just a pity that Taoism will raise an army to separatist as soon as it has a chance, but it has never succeeded. This is the case with the ancestor of Taoism Zhang Ling and Zhang Lu, Zhang Ling's eldest grandson, even though he had been separating Shu for more than 30 years, he finally surrendered to Cao Cao. Li Xiong and Liu Yuan were the same. In the end, they made wedding clothes for others, causing the Five Barbarians to invade China, and half of the Han surname in the Central Plains to be killed, either by death or by war, or by death or by plague, which broke the mountains and rivers, fought hard for years, and the people lived in poverty, and the fertile fields of the Central Plains were corpses across thousands of miles."
Zhang Chi did not expect that Miss Wang's evaluation of Taoism was so low. Perhaps it was influenced by her status. Zhang Chi did not speak and still listened quietly.
"Before, Taoism was mostly circulated among the refugees, but now it has penetrated into the wealthy families in Jiangnan. Now, the officials in Jiangnan, who believe in Taoism account for half of them, I'm afraid..."
Miss Wang suddenly remained silent for a moment and continued, "If I expected it was right, the people who came to rob the horses tonight were the Five Dogs of Rice Taoists. The Five Dogs of Rice Taoism was orthodox in the Heavenly Master. Now that the momentum is growing in Jiangnan, the momentum will be rampant, and if chaos arises, Jiangnan will suffer from the lives of life. The Five Dogs of Rice Tao has been accumulating strength for several years and planning to rebel. Now that we know that these war horses have long been robbed by them. How can I let these horses be robbed by them?"
"In fact, before the horse team set off, I knew that someone secretly fed horses and crotons to cause horses to have diarrhea. They did this just to delay the horse team's journey. Before crossing the river, thousands of people could gather to rob the horses."
"Since the lady had known about Wu Dou Mi Dao's conspiracy, why didn't she make any preparations? If there were too many people coming this time, wouldn't they have robbed the horse?"
Miss Wang smiled faintly and said, "The old nest of Wudou Rice Road is located in the southern coastal area. Although there are also people from Wudou Rice Road here, there are not many people who can dispatch it for a while. Moreover, the many Wudou Rice Road are fools who are deceived by them. Most of them have never been to the battlefield, and even the number of people is not enough to cause trouble."
Zhang Chi was stunned when he heard this. At this time, he was already impressed by the Miss Wang in front of him: "But how did Miss know that it would be Emei who must be robbed of the horse in the end?"
"I have never seen Emei before, so how could I know that the horse would be robbed by her? But I must put it on this horse. Feed the horse with salt. After I put it on, I just need to wait at the water source to get the horse, and I can get the horse without using any weapons. This method is indeed very clever. I didn't expect that the "poor family" would use this method to rob the horse." Miss Wang smiled faintly and said, "The world can see my mind so thoroughly and have such a plan, and I am afraid that the "poor family" will be the "poor family"."
When Zhang Chi saw Miss Wang mentioning the "poor family" again, she remembered that Emei and herself had also mentioned the "poor family" when they parted, and asked: "Miss, what is the 'poor family'?"
Unexpectedly, Miss Wang kept her in hiding and said with a smile: "Some things you know may not be a good thing, and may be harmful to you, but I think it won't take too long, and you will know them in the future."
When Zhang Chi saw Miss Wang not saying it, she didn't ask much. Since Emei said that she would be in constant entanglement with poor families, what should come will always come. So Zhang Chi changed the topic and said, "Fortunately, I met Monk Daoyuan and joined the caravan again. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to meet Miss Wang, and I know the situation as today."
Ms. Wang said: "Buddhism is indeed much gentler. They constantly support their forces and seek support, but never fool the people to rebel. Therefore, in the northern Hu people, many wealthy families believe in Buddhism, and the people worship Taoist kings. Now the power between Buddhism and Taoism has long become a powerful force, and they cannot tolerate each other."
"So that's it, no wonder. I always thought at first why Daoyuan is just a monk but is so highly respected."
"Young Master, don't underestimate Master Daoyuan. If Master Daoyuan had not been defeated in the battle, although Fu Qin was in great prosperity, how could it be destroyed in an instant? How could Murong Chui restore Yan Kingdom? The influence of Buddhist monks is so great that it is not a false talk, but Master Daoyuan is hidden deep. How many people in the world can know the mystery of this."
Miss Wang's words shocked Zhang Chi very much. He used to read time travel novels, but the ancients were very stupid, but why did it be his turn to travel through time? The characters he met were smarter than the other. Even an old monk who never talked much was an amazing character.
"I'm afraid there are not many people in this world who can see the current situation so thoroughly like the lady." Zhang Chi said with emotion.
"So what?" Miss Wang sighed helplessly, with a look of sadness: "It's a pity that I don't have enough ability and I'm useless to waste my efforts. I know that the world is going to be in chaos, but I can only try my best to delay it, but in the end, the world is going to be in chaos."
As I spoke, my expression was endlessly lonely.
"When the people are prospered, the people are suffering, and the people are suffering. If the miss said, the world is about to be in chaos, and the people will suffer in the end." Zhang Chi also sighed.
Speaking of this, Miss Wang suddenly laughed: "Don't you want to know why I will leave you for a day to talk about the general trend of the world tonight?"
Of course, it’s not because he is handsome, Zhang Chi is still self-aware: “Why did the lady tell me this?”
"The world will be in chaos, and heroes will appear in troubled times. Haven't the young master ever thought that maybe the young master can achieve something in troubled times and become the lord of the future troubled times."
"I really didn't think about this." Zhang Chi smiled. In fact, his biggest dream before tonight was to be a scholar. How could he know the general trend of the world? He had no ambitions at all. Before traveling through time, he would never do more things as long as he had money to drink, but he was easily satisfied and happy.
"The things in the world are really strange. Some people have planned for half their lives to be the master of troubled times, but in the end they are just dreams. Some people have never taken these seriously, but they are the destiny of heaven." Miss Wang smiled and shook her head and said, "Maybe, this is God's will."
In fact, compared to the general trend of the world, Zhang Chi is more concerned about what to eat tomorrow morning. However, Miss Wang’s wonderful words, he might as well listen to them as a story. At this time, he heard Miss Wang’s words and what he said seemed to have reasons for what he said, and he couldn’t help asking: “Who is talking about dreams in dreams, and who is the destiny of heaven?”
"The Huan family has endured the plot for two generations and is bound to rebel. Huan Xuan, the current leader of the Huan family, may be talking about dreams in a dream, and the young master may be the destiny of heaven." Miss Wang smiled and said, "It's God's will, who knows."
Zhang Chi naturally thought Miss Wang was joking him, so she waved her hand with a smile. Zhang Chi was still very clear about how much he was. Huan Xuan was a prince, and he was just a scholar. He had no fame and fortune at all. He smiled and said, "Miss Wang, don't joke about me."
