Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 3916 42. Moral Education Makes the Country Prosperous (Shan Lingyao Truthfully Explains His Inner Conflict)
"When the world is united, I also hope that people will follow my lead. No matter who Lingyao and Shangguan Kunyang are, I hope that the person who can control them is you, not someone else. Do you understand what I mean?"

As she spoke, Wu Xuanyue began her superb acting skills again. She raised her hand with an attitude of great trust, and slowly pressed it on Shan Lingyao's hand.

He said he was entrusting someone with a task, but in fact he was putting pressure on him. Dan Lingyao knew very well how Wu Xuanyue behaved.

Shan Lingyao lowered her head helplessly. She knew very well that she could not refuse this task. Since Wu Xuanyue had already said this, if she refused again, there would definitely be a rift between her and Wu Xuanyue in the future.

Moreover, she was also weighing the pros and cons in her mind. Since Wu Xuanyue said that Shangguan Kunyang had the appearance of an emperor, the result in the future was almost certain.

If this favor was given to someone else, Dan Lingyao would rather grit his teeth and chew this hard bone himself.

"Lingyao understands what the lady means, but..."

Even if Shan Lingyao agreed to let Wu Xuanyue take on this task, she had to express her concerns and the support she needed at this moment.

"How about you just listen to me first? Lingyao, don't be too hasty about everything."

However, Wu Xuanyue interrupted Shan Lingyao before he could finish his words.

"You are also a chess player. Let me ask you, what should the black chess piece do if it wants to capture the white chess piece?"

"Set traps according to the rules, and move step by step until you force the opponent into a dead end, or surround the opponent so that he has no way out."

"But, many things in this world don't follow the rules, right?"

"Well... if you want to get rid of the white pieces, the black pieces can deliberately lure the white pieces out of the boundary, and after the white pieces are dyed black, they can use a black-eat-black move, and the white pieces will become useless."

"So what should we do if we want to capture the black chess piece?"

After Wu Xuanyue laughed, she raised her glass and invited the other party again.

Shan Lingyao was stunned for a moment, then he understood immediately: "It's the same principle. First, let the black chess pieces feel uncomfortable in the environment they are in. As long as the black chess pieces break the rules they set, and then they are won over by the white chess pieces, then..."

"Yes~ The first step is to let Shangguan Kunyang know that the environment he is in is not right and that there are problems with the system of his country. He must first see the situation clearly. It is better to discover things by yourself than to be advised by others. Don't you think so?"

Shan Lingyao was surprised and stunned, but his brain could not keep up with the other party's rhythm at all. He just nodded stupidly and continued to ask.

"Miss, do you have a plan already?"

Wu Xuanyue smiled slightly, then slowly placed the thing in her hand on the table, and continued, "Lingyao, the reason why you feel it is so difficult to take down Shangguan Kunyang is because you feel that it is difficult to destroy the entire system of the Quan family with your own strength. In addition, Shangguan Kunyang has suffered greatly from it, but he does not know it. This makes you very painful, right?"

"That's right...Miss, you don't know that after I came into contact with Shangguan Kunyang during this period, to be honest, I feel a little scared." Having said that, Shan Lingyao confidently recalled the times she had been with Shangguan Kunyang, and she felt more and more frightened.

"what happened?"

"I spent every day with him in a life of luxury and debauchery, and I actually... I actually felt that such a life was not bad... Not to mention that Shangguan Kunyang was unwilling to leave such an environment, even I felt that I almost fell..."

At this point, Shan Lingyao felt ashamed of herself and sighed deeply, "Miss... What you don't know is that I'm afraid that if I continue to be with him, who am I? If I continue like this, it's not impossible... I feel that all the hardships I've suffered before were in vain... I..."

Shan Lingyao dared to face his own heart, and knew that he almost fell into the whirlpool of desire and couldn't extricate himself.

"Before, I wasn't angry with Shangguan Kunyang, I was angry with myself. How could I be so weak? How could my martial arts and perseverance over the years become so fragile under the corrosion of desire? I'm not afraid that I can't influence Shangguan Kunyang, I'm afraid that one day I will be dragged down without knowing it."

Hearing this, Wu Xuanyue smiled. Her smile was so deep, as if she had already foreseen Shan Lingyao's feelings.

"Yeah~ Eating, drinking, having fun, being admired by others, physical relaxation and spiritual enjoyment, who can refuse it? I can only say that your life was too hard before, and you definitely can't handle this kind of life all of a sudden."

"The upper class society can be so extravagant and decadent, Miss... I don't know if I will become different from myself in such an environment one day, and whether I will still be as devoted to you as before..."

Shan Lingyao confessed her thoughts truthfully. She was really scared. It was the same reason why she cruelly abandoned Shangguan Kunyang that day. She despised herself for living a life of drunkenness and dreams. In such days, she gradually wore away her consciousness. She was a cultivator and had family feuds and national hatreds. How could she be so content with the sake of temporary comfort?
If Dan Lingyao had a clear mind, she would have hated herself for indulging in the world of senses. How could she have fallen into such depravity?
That day she cursed Shangguan Kunyang, but wasn't that also cursing herself?

"Only when people are in pain can they wake up and know who they are. In the decadent life under the prosperity, they will be confused by various things and forget themselves..."

Shan Lingyao spoke with a melancholy look and smiled bitterly.

Hearing this, Wu Xuanyue did not blame the other party. Instead, she looked earnest and sincere and comforted the other party.

"Lingyao, this is not your fault. Everyone has difficulty overcoming desires. After all, people live in the secular world. There is nothing wrong with being indulged in the secular world. However, if one only indulges in one's senses and forgets to cultivate one's heart, one will only degenerate further and further into a beast... You were right to stop at the brink, which proves that you still have the ability to control yourself."

"But... I don't know what I will become in the days ahead if I continue to interact with Shangguan Kunyang, and... I'm afraid... I'm afraid..."

"You're afraid that you didn't turn him into a white chess piece, but you became a black chess piece, right?"

"Well... Miss Akechi."

Shan Lingyao lowered his head in shame.

"Who says that entering the world is not cultivation? If you have never tasted the suffering of others, how can you understand the pain of others? The small secluded is in the wild, the great secluded is in the city. If you want to improve your realm, then Lingyao, you must understand that the contest between you and Shangguan Kunyang is also a contest with your own heart. If you are afraid of things and dare not face them, then this is not the awareness that we warriors should have. In addition... you must learn to desensitize, learn to find balance in the intricate relationships, because in the future... you will also become the king of a country. If you don't have the ability to balance, you will not be able to sit firmly on your throne..."
