Chapter 2134: The World Is a Chess Game After All
In the 114th year of Dao Li, Hong Junyan was defeated by Jing Taizu Tang Yu. After escaping back to the country, he pretended to be dead and took the opportunity to hibernate and start the plan of competing for the future.
In the 119th year of Dao Li, Ying Yunnian used the "present" of Sanshenglanyinhua to create Ning Daoru and lay out transcendence. Then he abdicated the following year.
At this moment, history is so clear.
History books are annotated by reality.
Jiang Wang seemed to see the yellow scroll of time, turning it quickly under the green lamp. The long river of time is full of heroic songs.
This is the charm of historiography. Clarifying the truth of history, engraving the real history, and making the glory of history last for thousands of generations, this is the great way.
At this time, revisiting "Shi Dao Zao Hai", I feel that every word is heavy, profound and far-reaching, as if I can see the knife of time.
The two strong men related to Sanshenglanyinhua, Chai Yin and Ying Yunnian, are both heroes who have left their names in history. The fight between them was recorded in the history books of both the human and demon races.
As the only person who witnessed the transcendence of Chai Yin and Ying Yunnian at the same time, Jiang Wang's feelings were particularly profound.
Each of them held half of the "now flower", and both of them made the "now" extremely sublimated.
At that time, Chai Yin was only one step away - as long as he swallowed the Sanshenglanyin flower cultivated by the spider orchid, he could truly transcend.
Ying Yunnian and Chai Yin's strength at that time should be comparable. It can also be seen from the result of their fight for the Sanshenglanyin flower that the two each took half.
They both used the Sanshenglanyin flower as a resource on the road to transcendence, but the specific methods were different.
Jiang Wang could not judge the superiority.
But the "now" of Ying Yunnian's Sanshenglanyin flower has only six petals in total, one petal saved Xie Ai, and one petal made Ning Daoru. What did he lack, what could he use to make up?
Or is it enough now?
At this time, he held the flower in his hand, talking and laughing calmly, as if he was not going to ascend the path of transcendence, but taking a peaceful walk in his own garden.
Among all the scenes of transcendence witnessed by Jiang Wang, the one about Ying Yunnian was the most peaceful. It was like an ordinary afternoon, he said he was going to go on a long journey, and then pushed open the door. Everything was so natural.
Hong Junyan was silent for a moment, and then said: "Before you go to transcendence, is there anything to deal with?"
Fu Huan, Wei Qingpeng, Meng Lingxiao, Guan Daoquan, all looked silently.
In front of a strong man who could transcend at his fingertips, the ambition of the Snow Country that had been laid out suddenly became very thin. The grand plan of dominating the future seemed to be out of reach.
At first, people would be curious, why did only Xu Wang and Wang Xixu come to Qin to plot against the Snow Country? They didn't seem to be enough.
But after Ying Yunnian appeared, the question would become, what did Xu Wang and Wang Xixu come here for? They didn't seem necessary.
Ning Daoru can just make the false become true, what difference does it make whether the others come or not?
Ying Yunnian thought for a moment, then said: "There is indeed one thing."
Hong Junyan looked at Ying Yunnian quietly, ready to release his power. He also wanted to see how big the gap was between himself at the peak and those who touched transcendence.
The so-called "old friends meeting" is of course just a false illusion of warmth.
They were opponents back then. Which of those founding monarchs was not ambitious when they established the country, wanting to sweep away everything and become the emperor of the world? Ying Yunnian is so gentle and soft now, but he should not forget how cold and hard the style of the Qin State he founded was.
It's just that all those brilliant figures back then failed.
There is always a step behind the hero standing in front of the hero.
And many years later, only Hong Junyan himself and a person who abdicated and took the path of transcendence are left to compete here.
This battle...
"Zhen Hou." Ying Yunnian said: "Take out the letter of state."
Hmm?
Hong Junyan's ambition was quelled for a moment. For the first time, those calm and majestic eyes gave rise to pure doubts.
What? Everyone is standing here face to face. Before fighting, they have to send a letter of credence?
Xu Wang took out a scroll of credence with a black axis and presented it with both hands: "Respectfully presented to Taizu!"
This scroll of credence flowed through fate and appeared in Ying Yunnian's palm. He held it with one hand, and then changed to both hands, holding it to Hong Junyan: "I, the man who has left the throne, represent the Qin Dynasty today and sign the Great Wall agreement with you. Qin and Xue will build the Great Wall together to eliminate the Shura threat. What do you think?"
What do you think?
For Xueguo, this is simply a pie in the sky!
It's so sweet that it's totally unbelievable.
Fu Huan said that Xueguo is willing to help build the Great Wall - that's the most beautiful imagination. Only a big country can bear heavy responsibilities. How can Qin allow Xueguo to share the burden of the Great Wall, a national treasure?
But the letter of credence would not be false, and what Ying Yunnian said on such an occasion would not be a lie.
Hong Junyan did not take the letter of credence immediately, but asked: "Why?"
He had been cautious all his life, so cautious that he was laughed at for not being able to leave the snowfield for his whole life, and could only hope for the future. But caution is the basis for him to cross the chaotic world of heroes fighting each other and still try to compete for hegemony today. He always believes in himself and Fu Huan, and believes more than anyone else.
"I said that I am willing to fulfill your plan for hegemony in the future. I appreciate this plan very much. Only a wise and brave person can draw this grand plan." Ying Yunnian smiled and said: "You fulfilled me, and I fulfilled you, that's all."
"My so-called fulfillment is just stepping on your design, which is ultimately your own efforts. And your fulfillment is a real division of interests and giving up power and responsibility."
"In my opinion, there is no difference."
Hong Junyan looked at Ying Yunian for a while, and finally twitched his lips: "Brother Ying, you are very strange to me now. It's not a game of chess in the world, it's time for so many of us to scheming!"
Ying Yunnian's attitude was natural: "I was a king in the past, and today I am Ying Yunnian."
Hong Junyan said: "I bear the responsibility of hundreds of millions of people in the Snowy Region, but I dare not just regard Brother Ying as Yun Nian."
Ying Yunnian laughed: "Actually, my appreciation is the foundation, and the rest are side effects. But you must say something big--"
He suppressed his smile and said quite seriously: "The timing for your plan to fight for future hegemony should be the more chaotic the world is and the weaker the powers are, the more appropriate it is. There is a best moment right now, the Demon Clan Yu Zhen opened the world of Shenxiao, and the rebellion of all the worlds is about to begin. If you wait until all parties are exhausted after the war to come back, your chances of winning will be greatly increased. But you still choose to come back before the war of Shenxiao begins. I think you are the same. I want to contribute to the human race.”
Hong Junyan said matter-of-factly: "If I want to become the emperor of Liuhe, how can I stay in Feiying? I want to rule the world, so of course I have to bear the responsibility of the world! Besides, if I lose the Shenxiao war, what else will I fight for? Returning is just a matter of course. If you want to escape with more people, why don’t you wake up.”
Ying Yunian handed the Great Qin State Letter to him: "This is the reason why I made a treaty with you. How we will fight in the future is a matter of the future. The most important thing right now is that the two countries join hands to build the Yuyuan Great Wall and never end the war of Shura. In the final analysis, it is to prepare for the battle against Shenxiao.”
Hong Junyan then took down the letter of credence and looked at it carefully.
Everything about the Yuyuan Great Wall in the credential is clear and clear, with no hidden meaning.
The powers and responsibilities of Qin and Xue over the Great Wall are also fair and equal.
Of course, the Qin Great Wall is much longer than the Snow Great Wall... but this is what it should be. With the national strength of both sides being so strong, Qin cannot be asked to accommodate too much.
After reading the letter of credence, Hong Junyan sighed: "Brother Ying has such a big heart, I can't do it as well!"
"No." Ying Yunnian said, "It's just that Brother Hong is the king and my thoughts will be different when I step down."
Hong Junyan said with sincerity: "I am planning for the Snow Country for eternity, and my brother is planning for the human race for eternity. The gap between my brother and me is the gap between the Snow Country and the present world."
Ying Yunian smiled and said: "But the Snow Country may not be able to live in this world. Brother Yu, I wish you success."
Xu Wang's face above the Leihai Sea was expressionless, while Wang Xixu's breath was calm.
It is really a new feeling that my great ancestor wishes others to dominate the world.
Hong Junyan spread the certificate of credence in the air, raised his hand to summon the emperor's seal, and printed it heavily: "Immediately we sign this agreement to build the Great Wall together! Qin Li is the best!"
"Li?"
"So that my brother will know that the Snow Kingdom has merged with the five northwest kingdoms, and this is the name of the new country. The long night is over, and the sun is about to rise, which is called 'Li'."
"What a good name!" Ying Yunian praised: "The great country is the people of the country!"
After hearing this, Hong Junyan looked solemn, collected his credentials, handed them back to Ying Yunian, and said politely: "Brother's teachings must not be forgotten!"
"What kind of teaching is this?" Ying Yunian smiled, pushed the letter of credence stamped with the seals of the emperors of the two countries back into Xu Wan's hands, and said: "In the end, I failed to take the path of the emperor of Liuhe. But. What makes me relieved is that neither Ji Yusu nor Ji Yanqiu succeeded. Although my own failure is painful, others' success is even more enviable."
Hong Junyan said half-seriously, "I'm very jealous right now."
"You are still on the road... Now that I have embarked on a new path, I am looking forward to the unification of the world. I want to see what the reality of the ideal that I failed to realize at the beginning looks like -" Ying Yunian thought for a moment, quite a bit. Seriously: "On behalf of us old guys who are active in the new year of the Dao calendar, let's fight against those kings who are ambitious today. We must let them know how we were fighting back then."
Hong Junyan said: "If I win in the end, I will say this. If I fail, I will not represent anyone and will not embarrass you. If any descendant cuts off my head, I will tell him that I am Those who avoided war in the new year of Dao Li cannot represent the peak of that era. "
Ying Yunnian laughed.
Hong Junyan also laughed.
The laughter of the two founding fathers echoed across the snowy fields.
Everyone watched and listened.
This is the wantonness of our ancestors,
The names in the history books are still alive in the world.
Xu Wang, who received the credentials, said at this time: "Taizu Rongzhen, our army has withdrawn from the Winter City, released the captured generals, and rested at the pass... The latest information, the three armies of the Jing Kingdom, Pengri, Longwu, Ying Yangwei has stopped cruising, I think they are aware of your existence."
The Peng Japanese Army is the former guard army among the Six Guards of Jing Kingdom. This is also the emperor's personal army. Zhenren Weixi serves as the deputy governor and is in charge on behalf of the emperor.
The Longwu Army is the lower guard army among the Six Guards Army of the Jing Kingdom. Zhong Jing, the Grand Governor of Longwu, is the one who fought against the Winter Emperor.
Yingyangwei is one of the Seven Guards. General Zhongshan Yanwen of Yingyangwei is the one who erected the Eight Thousand Miles Monument in the Borderlands.
Such an outing of the three armies cannot be just an outing.
Xu Wang's report brought people back to reality. This is not history. What is impressive in history books is a frenzy that sweeps everything away in reality. The vast majority of people can only drown in it and cannot even get up from the waves.
Ying Yunnian said to Hong Junyan: "To be honest, the Kalu Army and the Gange Army came here this time not to cut snow, but to guard against thorns. It is difficult for the emperor of Jing to tolerate a dragon and tiger on the side of his bed. This is okay. Understood - but we need to calm him down. After all, the world of Shenxiao is about to open up. If the human race can avoid internal conflict, there should be no internal conflict. "
The people of Qin knew about the mobilization of soldiers and horses in Jing State earlier than the people of Li State. This is also a reflection of the gap in national power between the two sides.
Hong Junyan said with emotion: "Brother has good intentions."
Fu Huan, who had always stood at the top of the Eternal Holy Winter Peak, also spoke at this time: "Your Majesty, the Ancestor Emperor, the latest information is that the Chu State's ritual soul and divine sin armies have stopped outside the river valley. I think they are probably offering sacrifices to the heroic spirits. ”
There are six divisions in Chu, which are famous all over the world. Lihun and Shensin are two of the six divisions. The former is the royal family's personal army, while the latter is almost the Dou family's private army.
When you stop, you offer sacrifices to the heroic spirits; when you advance, you knock on the gate with swords and axes.
Everyone is very familiar with this trick, so no one can understand it.
Fu Huan said that he has not been idle for so many years, and indeed he has not been idle. It is not just about stabilizing the power of the Snow Country, and it is not just about promoting the merger of the Five Northwest Countries Alliance.
Ying Yunnian said meaningfully: "It seems that everyone needs to calm down."
Hong Junyan said sincerely: "Everything is for the overall interests of the human race and to prepare for the war with Shenxiao. If the skin is gone, how can the hair be attached? This is the greatest sobriety."
"Yes." Ying Yunian's gaze passed through the sky, as if he had crossed the vast universe, staring at the new world where everything is competing: "I hope my old opponents will not let me down then."
Hong Junyan said: "Speaking of which, my brother has accomplished everything except the people of Jing..."
"After all, in the world of chess, there are gains and losses. It is inevitable." Ying Yunian only smiled: "After all, Tang Yu is dead, otherwise, with his temper, he would definitely fight with me all night long."
As he said this, he waved his hand and said goodbye to his old friend.
He lifted his feet and walked higher.
The steps are so casual, as if walking in his courtyard...the sky and the earth are like houses.
"Please...wait a moment!" Cabinet member Jiang, who had been cautious from beginning to end and tried his best to avoid getting involved in any party, spoke at this time.
Ying Yunnian looked over with a little doubt.
This is a terrifying existence that is moving toward transcendence. Although he behaves so gently, no one can ignore the pressure he brings.
Jiang Wang cupped his hands and said: "Senior has the world in his heart and has thought about the human race for all generations. I admire him endlessly. However, I hope there is one thing I don't understand——"
Ying Yunnian was noncommittal: "Tell me and listen."
"Ning Daoru, as the Winter Emperor, guided Longmen Academy Zhao Wuyan on a path beyond her control. Was it your instruction?"
Jiang Wang considered his words. His status as a Taixu cabinet member could guarantee his safety most of the time. But Ying Yunian is definitely qualified to be an accident.
"I mean, before the lie came true, all of Ning Daoru's actions and character only served his goals. This is the truth you told us. So when he was still the Winter Emperor, this junior really couldn't have imagined , why does he need to guide Zhao Wuyan’s path? At that time, he was just a monk in the outer building realm, and had nothing to do with Jingxue and Qin Jingdu..."
Ying Yunian looked at him quietly and suddenly smiled: "I see that you are cautious and very mature. How dare you ask this?"
"I am a person who can restrain my curiosity. When my ability is insufficient, I am also willing to ignore the truth." Jiang Wang bowed deeply: "But my best friend is still fighting for his life. He really wants to find a way to save him. I love you, but I don’t know where to go. I hope the seniors will take pity on me and give you some guidance.”
"Ask what love is in the world!" Ying Yunian sighed with emotion and nodded: "You are very smart, and you are right. The Winter Emperor's contact with the little girl named Zhao Wuyan was due to my instruction. Why did I do this? You would all know the reason soon, but since you asked now, I will tell you now——"
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhong Xuanyin: "This is a historical pen, and you can also write down a line."
