Chapter 153 The Emperor Asks About Government, the Supreme Being Instructs

Ji Yang frowned and looked at the black vortex in front of him in deep thought.

Ji Yang opened his eyes in horror and gasped for breath. Looking at the tent on the roof, Ji Yang was a little dazed.

At this moment, Ji Yang propped himself up, his eyes still full of confusion.

Aunt Xue smiled sweetly: "Young Master is awake."

Ji Yang: “…”

……

Aunt Xue gave Ji Yang a shy look and knelt beside him to help him get dressed.

After a while, the two walked out of the tent. Aunt Xue limped to the burning fire and sat there cooking while rubbing her knees.

After breakfast, the two continued on their journey.

Aunt Xue carried a sword on her back. Maybe it was because of the sudden awakening in the morning that she felt that Ji Yang's attitude towards her was different. She was a little spoiled. She was obviously a beautiful woman of a certain age, but she walked with her hands behind her back like a girl, jumping up and down, and even tied a long ponytail behind her head, swinging back and forth between her waist and hips as she jumped.

Aunt Xue asked tenderly, "Sir, we killed so many people a few days ago, and I don't know what the court has to say. What if they send people to stop us again?"

Ji Yang admired the surrounding scenery and said, "No matter how many come, we will kill them all."

Aunt Xue said coquettishly: "Young Master, you really don't look like a scholar."

Ji Yang laughed loudly: "Who said that scholars can only be powerless?"

He is indeed not just a scholar, he is also a martial artist. Even if there is no Confucianism that has been researched, Ji Yang can still dominate the world with his palm seal or beast control seal.

However, there is no need to explain these things to Aunt Xue.

Aunt Xue is no simple lady. She even greeted the humiliation with a smile. Ji Yang was extremely alert, fearing that this feudal beauty would wear down his will to fight.

The two of them walked in the wilderness, one asking questions and the other answering them, and with Aunt Xue pretending to be a girl, it was quite an interesting experience.

Capital City, Jinluan Palace.

The emperor sat on the dragon throne, his face livid: "Who can tell me where this monster came from? Where did he come from? Why have I never heard of him?"

The ministers below knelt down in fear and kowtowed, their buttocks raised high, with a humble attitude: "Your Majesty, please calm down."

"Calm down?" The emperor became even angrier when he heard this. He was high up in the sky, holding the power of the world. He thought that after taking this position, he could do whatever he wanted. This was indeed the case at ordinary times. The group of slaves and ministers under him really flattered him and said nice things to him.

But if something happens, most of them know nothing about anything and often kneel down, kowtow and shout for help.

The emperor became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. His face gradually darkened. "I'm asking you how this guy got here. Just tell me what you know. If you keep talking, I'll calm down. If I calm down, will this monster die?"

"I am terrified."

I'll go to hell with you.

The emperor's mouth twitched when he heard this. He just wanted a solution. Why should you be so scared?

The emperor took a deep breath, tried his best to remain calm, and said in a gentle tone: "My dear ministers, you are all pillars of the country. If you have any ideas, you should speak them out. We are in Daqing, and you always say that the weather is good and the country is peaceful. If that's the case, why did such a demon arise? But since it has happened, we should solve this problem first."

Perhaps the emperor was too gentle, or perhaps the ministers all felt embarrassed, but someone finally stood up.

The man knelt on the ground, raised his head slightly and saluted: "Your Majesty, calm down. I have something to say."

The emperor looked appreciative and said, "Tell me about it."

The man said, "Your Majesty, I think that in order to solve this monster, we must understand this monster. If we don't understand this monster, we can't solve it. If we want to understand this monster, we must know what kind of monster it is. If we don't know what kind of monster it is, we can't understand it. If we can't understand it, we can't solve it. And if we must solve it, we need to understand it..."

The emperor's eyes swirled around: "Stop, stop, stop, what do you want to say, my dear?"

The man was silent for a moment, then said, "Your Majesty, I believe that knowing both ourselves and the enemy will ensure victory in every battle." The emperor breathed a sigh of relief and praised, "Good, good, go on."

That person: "If you want to win every battle, you must know yourself and the enemy. To know yourself and the enemy, you must understand your advantages and understand where the monster comes from. And if you want to understand this monster, you must know what kind of monster it is. If you don't know what kind of monster it is, you can't understand this monster. If you can't understand this monster, then..."

The emperor was silent. He was well-read and knew that the last emperor of the previous dynasty was also ignorant of the questions in the court. That was why they had the opportunity to enter the pass and got a great bargain. The emperor was suddenly shocked and looked at the servants and ministers kneeling on the ground. He couldn't help but sweat all over his body: Is the luck of Daqing over?
The more the emperor thought about it, the more frightened he became.

Fortunately, the emperor still had loyal ministers in his heart. After the court session, the eunuch Dai Quan who was following him whispered, "Master, how about asking the magicians to take a look?"

This remark awakened the emperor, who sighed inwardly: "You, a dog slave, are actually much more useful than all the civil and military officials in the court."

The emperor was delighted and was about to praise him a little more, but then his face changed and became extremely gloomy.

Because he thought again that when the previous dynasty fell, it seemed that around the last emperor of the previous dynasty, in addition to a few ministers, there were also some loyal eunuchs who were loyal to the country.

Thinking of this, the emperor felt even more unhappy.

Is Daqing really showing signs of national demise?
He waved away the eunuchs and walked into a palace with a gloomy face. Inside the palace, an old man was lying on the bed. It was the emperor.

The old man had white hair and beard. After hearing the footsteps, he slowly opened his eyes and asked hoarsely, "Why is the emperor here?"

"Father." The emperor saluted with great respect, lowered his head and sat on the edge of the bed, and recounted what had happened recently.

The retired emperor's face was full of wrinkles, and he listened in silence. When the emperor finished speaking, he smiled hoarsely: "Your Majesty, don't worry. The more mediocre and incompetent the civil and military officials are, the better it is for Daqing."

The emperor still looked worried.

The Emperor said, "You have to know that Daqing is a foreign country after all. If those officials are smart and capable, it may not be a good thing. Even if they are loyal, it won't work."

"We in Daqing have no shortage of capable officials, why don't we use them? They are just tired people. Only by using these mediocre people and letting them oppress the people can Daqing be superior. Otherwise, who knows what those well-fed peasants are thinking, and who knows what they will do."

"Once people are full, they will think more and want more."

The emperor nodded in agreement and then asked, "Father, if that is the case, why do we have so many famous officials in Daqing?"

The emperor looked strange: "You have been the emperor for so long, how can you ask such a question? If we don't occasionally promote one or two capable people and kill some corrupt officials, how can we show our wisdom?"

"We in Daqing are the masters of the world after all. We can't just watch the people starve to death, right? We need to keep them from starving to death, but also not let them be full. This is a big question."

"Besides, no matter how capable those officials are, they are killing their own corrupt officials. Killing a group and promoting a group will be applauded by the people, and our Daqing treasury will be filled, and you and I can become saintly rulers. All we have to pay is some official titles and reputations. What's the point of that?"

"You have to remember that Daqing is a foreign land, and the population is too small. The only way is to constantly suppress them, wear them down, and more importantly, enslave them mentally. Only in this way can Daqing be as stable as a mountain."

"If one day, even if Daqing is in chaos and is overthrown by these peasants, it doesn't matter."

"A bunch of illiterate peasants want to govern the world, don't they need educated people like us in Daqing? So, burn their books, destroy their bodies, and enslave their spirits."

"You have to make them understand that they are the lowest creatures in the world, even worse than pigs and dogs, and even barbarians are nobler than them."

"Only in this way, even if something happens in the future, their bones will still be soft and their hearts will still be mean."

The emperor listened quietly, nodded continuously, and occasionally showed a thoughtful look: "Father, how can we increase our population? Although what you said is good, it will take time to do it."

The emperor's face darkened when he heard this, and he said disappointedly: "Don't even think about it. We are not human beings. If we want to expand the population, we can only change it by combining with humans from generation to generation. It is impossible to do it in a short period of time, and the children born will die of many diseases."

"Emperor, you don't have to think so much. You should be very clear about our origins, so stabilizing the country is the most important thing."

"We are outsiders, so we should kill when we should. Don't be soft-hearted. There is no need to talk about morality like those emperors in the Central Plains. Remember, if you talk about morality, it will not be long before Daqing is destroyed. Since that monster is against Daqing, we should kill him at all costs. It just so happens that the population has increased too fast in recent years, and the food pressure in Daqing has increased. We might as well take this opportunity to clean it up. Without enough people to eat, it will be a peaceful and prosperous era."

"Those noble families have committed many evil deeds over the years and accumulated a lot of wealth. If there is public resentment, it is better to kill one or two families, and the world will surely praise them."

"We are not the previous dynasty. The reason why Daqing was able to maintain its rule was by killing people. Don't learn from those pedantic emperors of the previous dynasty and let yourself be controlled by others."
