Chapter 181: The Emperor's Dispute Over the Nation
false. It's Fang Pengju alone.That's why he had to send Fang Pengju's body back, so that he wouldn't end up with no resting place after death. This wasn't out of recognition or sympathy for Fang Peng...The official way is a kind of practice that blends aspects from various schools. It gained popularity in the present world and almost became the mainstream because it has its own advantages in innovating the system of cultivation.
>
This is the practice system that maximizes the utilization of humanitarian currents to date. To make a comparison, it can be seen as a political manifestation of military strategy...

GATHERING troops, transcending the chasm between ordinary and extraordinary.
To unite people for the country and utilize the nation's power for self-cultivation.
A person on a surging river can travel thousands of miles. When the water rises, the boat also rises; when the water flows swiftly, the boat goes quickly.
The relationship between officials and national power is mutually beneficial.
The stronger the nation, the more cultivators it can support, and the higher their levels.
If the imperial way is not flourishing, those who cultivate the imperial way to share national fortunes will in turn suck the blood of the nation.
A small country uses all its resources to merely support a few official deities.
When the sun set in Yongguo, he was almost drained of his national fortune by a real person, Han Yin.
There are many more examples, but I won't list them all.
An official cultivator bears more responsibility than a sect cultivator, as determined by the path of cultivation. As 《Yousheng Bitan》 says: "If one receives its entrustment, there must be its use. If one uses its emoluments, one must bear its duties. If one bears its duties, one must shoulder its responsibilities!"
Therefore, those great cultivators of the world naturally have corresponding freedom.
But if one does not enter the official path.
Is the distance between heaven and earth so easily bridged
Can something as profound as a divine presence be achieved so easily
How many cultivators are trapped their whole lives!
The stronger a nation, the more it can benefit cultivation.

Even official Dao cultivators, when they reach the later stages, also gather their power and restore it to the nation. They shake off the constraints of the official Dao and achieve personal freedom... In this way, they are similar to sect cultivators in their ultimate goals.
Taking Jiang Ru Mo, the Marquis of Xiang as an example, he was originally a cultivator at the peak of Dong Zhen.

After inheriting the position of Prime Minister of Great Qi, sharing the power of Great Qi, and holding the authority of the Prime Minister, you will immediately possess the power of the Path Derivation Realm!
Of course, this kind of deviation from the path is not true accomplishment. Once one leaves their position, it immediately dissipates.
But as long as he sits firm in this position and fulfills the duties expected of him by the state of Qi, his power will not disappear. How much does mastering the power of the Dao for a long time help one's own understanding of the Dao
During his time in power, he achieved some accomplishments and received greater support from the nation's resources.
Many years later, someone else took over his political agenda and protected his political legacy, allowing him to retire safely with vast wealth. He then had the opportunity to achieve great power like Yan Ping, returning his power to himself and truly accomplishing the path of transcendence, reaching the pinnacle of extraordinary accomplishment.
Therefore, Wu Diaoqiu understood very well why so many sons of noble families fought tooth and nail for a title.
So-called hereditary and inviolable titles are sharing the glory with the nation!
It's impossible to bestow great rewards for anything less than extraordinary achievements. Even the most gifted individual cannot succeed without the confluence of favorable circumstances, timing, location, and support.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
Was Chong Xuan, the ruthless killer, truly a genius in his prime
Was there enough merit in having Broken Summer followed by Annihilation of the Sun
His marquis title was personal, not hereditary.
Such an hereditary title as that of Marquis of Bowang! To what extent could one leverage the power of the state! Who wouldn't smash their brains to pieces
If his family had an hereditary title, Wu Duqiu would definitely go all out to fight for it. He was only hoping to reach the realm of "Shen Lin" (divine presence) and, with the help of national power, could make this a certainty. Originally, he could only reach "Shen Lin," but with the aid of national power, he had a chance to achieve "Dong Zhen" (understanding the truth)... Even with exceptional talent, a hereditary marquis in a dominant country would at least save ten years of hard work!
No matter how extraordinary and charismatic a person may be, who dares to say that ten years is just a fleeting moment, insignificant and negligible
How long is ten years How much can ten years change
Outside, it's status, honor, and a lifetime of glory. To oneself, the path of cultivation is inherently about one step faster, every step faster.
Why not argue Only fools don't argue!
Just like the two brothers from Shuofang's household, who despite being born of the same mother, have been secretly and openly fighting for so long When it comes to their future, who would be willing to give an inch
> However, the Bao family's affairs had already been settled over there, while the Chongxuan family's were still in their final stages.
This time, on the Fasha battlefield, under Bao's operation, Bob Zhao was also under Xie Huai'an's command. Like Xie Baoshui, he led 20,000 troops from various Eastern countries, forming a separate army. Bao Zhongqing, who was also from the direct lineage of the Bao family, only commanded one garrison... It was also a clear indication that no opportunity was given.
Of course, in Wu Duoqiu's view at that time, the succession dispute among the descendants of Chongxuan Family was almost settled.
So, looking at Chong Xuan's performance, he should have felt some sympathy, just like he did when facing Bao Zhongqing.

But the jovial fat man before him, at a certain moment just now...had actually made him feel a sense of danger
Wu Duoqiu blinked, realizing that Chong Xuan Sheng had already turned and strode away.
“Your nephew is no ordinary person,” Wu Duoqiu said.
Chong Xuan did not respond, only saying: "Let's go. Please trouble Brother Wu to take me to find Bo and the three warriors who belong to me."
Now, all the soldiers here belong to Wu Duoqiu!
That is to say, Chong Xuan went out of his way to gather intel, only to end up with nothing!
>
Wu Duoqiu wore a strange expression: “Seriously You came to chat with me just to wait for him My esteemed Young Master Zun, what use is this tactic of yours He’ll find out who you brought with you just by checking. ”
Zhong Xuan smiled lightly, like the breeze on a calm day: "Teasing him."
"The princes vie for rank, the officials for power, and the emperor for the whole country."
Everything in the world has a definite amount. If I have one more, he will have one less, so it is necessary to strive for it.
“The great Dao walks alone, which is why it cuts off those who walk beside it.”

——"Historical Records of Xia: Records of Emperor Xiang"
In the southern region, there is a grand city where dragon veins converge over ten thousand miles, known as "Noble Township."
This is the summer capital.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
During the reign of Emperor Xia, the nation flourished for a thousand years, accumulating profound cultural heritage. In those days, it swept across the eastern regions of the south and established its capital here, naming it "Guìyì" – meaning "noble city," signifying the supreme residence.
Although there was a defeat in the eastern campaign and the nation faced extinction, with the king's death and loss of territory at one point, it still stubbornly persisted.

The once-mighty Emperor Xiaoxiang, along with all his adult children, perished on the battlefield. Only a young son, barely nine years old, remained, raised in the depths of the palace.
During the regency of Empress Xia, King Wu Si arrogantly commanded the army, joining forces to prop up the nation. They installed the young son of Emperor Xiang as emperor and changed the era name to Shenwu, signifying their remembrance of military achievements, and thus recorded the eastward expansion.

...to this day.
It is already the thirty-second year of the Divine Martial Era.

The Bao Hua Palace, where the court of Daxia convenes for discussions, is abuzz at this moment.
Present-day Emperor Xia sits upon the dragon throne, beneath a plain circlet. His expression is unreadable. His posture is dignified, and he doesn't appear out of sorts.
Behind the dragon throne, beaded curtains fell. Empress Xia's throne was situated within.
It is well-known that the woman who once wore a phoenix crown and red bridal robe, standing atop the city wall, was the true power behind the throne of this nation. She held absolute control over the country's affairs, dictating its future.
The throne has three steps.
On the second-tier platform, two large chairs were placed on either side.
The positions of King Wu's son, Duke Shao, and King Min, Yu Liyang, are shown separately.
As a pillar of this empire, sharing glory with the emperor——
Of course, we must also face the challenges together.
Furthermore, it was led by civil and military officials including Lu Xiyi, Grand Tutor, Xi Mengfu, State Diviner, and Long Jiao, Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Army.
In the era of Shenwu, Daxia raised two powerful armies with the full might of the nation.
These two armies are world-class troops, not inferior to the elite forces of any hegemon!
One day is called Shenwu, and one day is called Zhen Guo.
The real Dragon Reef is the commander of the Zhen Guo Army, and King Wu Si Jia leads the Shenwu Army.
During the reign of Emperor Xia Xiang, the Xia kingdom had six powerful armies that dominated the land. Sadly, they lost the struggle for hegemony and the six mighty armies were decimated after exhausting countless resources of the empire.
Only the remnant soldiers of King Wu's lineage were gathered, serving as the foundation. An army was built, known as Shenwu, to protect the borders.
>
After years of painstaking effort, a second powerful army was established to defend the nation. Only then did peace prevail in the four quarters, dispelling the lurking ambitions of the surrounding wolves.
To this day.
Silence had spread throughout the hall for a long time.
Today's Xia Kingdom is far less prosperous than the ancient Xia Dynasty. Today's Qi Kingdom, however, far surpasses the Qi of old!
Qi's million-strong army has already set off, and the oath-taking voices from the western suburbs of Linzi seem to echo even outside Guiyi City. Who wouldn't feel pressured!
Although Xia Guo has been striving for the restoration of its former glory for thirty-two years, with Qi Guo as its imaginary enemy, both the government and people have long imagined countless scenarios of war, eager to avenge past humiliations.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
But when this scene truly unfolded, when the State of Jing dismantled the Yitian Observatory, and when the million-strong army of the State of Qi marched east... people seemed to only then truly recall the terror of the State of Qi.
Remembering when the mighty army was decimated, the Xia royal family nearly perished, and the land of Xia was engulfed in flames with only one capital city left!
I recall not long ago sending an envoy to the nation of Pingdeng. This led to a valuable Shenlin cultivator dying in their subsequent retaliatory strike.
I remember the blood of Taihua Zhenren, a famous swordsman from a generation past, forever stained on Jianfeng Mountain last year!
Here is the text translation:

“My lords, we have been deliberating for two days!” Xi Mengfu, the Grand Master of Daxia, declared loudly.
He was a seemingly mild-mannered middle-aged man. He wore a blue Daoist robe bestowed by the emperor himself. He had led the team at the last Yellow River Assembly.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!
At this moment, his tranquil gaze swept across the hall filled with civil and military officials: "Matters have come to this. Whether we fight or make peace, let's quickly draw up a charter."
King Wu of the State of Yi, and King Yu of Min, always abstained from expressing opinions on state affairs, showing great respect for the regency of Empress Xia. Unless there was a crisis threatening their country's existence, like when the Qi army threatened to attack Xia, they wouldn't even attend court meetings.
In the height of summer, or perhaps the empress's will, wouldn't reveal itself too early.
At this time, in Baohua Palace, there weren't many people qualified to speak with the Xi Meng Mansion.
The austere Grand Minister Liu Xiy, with his white beard and solemn expression, strode out: "What do you mean by 'war or peace' There is no option for 'peace'!"
As soon as he appeared, he confronted Xi Mengfu head-on, his anger unconcealed: "When the Qi army was pressing on our borders, you asked whether to fight or make peace. You were clearly indicating a desire for peace!"
Liu Xiyi uses Xiyi as her name.
What is called "invisible when seen, nameless when heard," is the "Hi-Yi." The Great Dao has no sound or color, hence it is called "Hi-Yi".
...But he himself was a hot-tempered person.
It's not the first or second time he has pointed fingers and yelled insults at people in court.
Everyone in the palace had already gotten used to it.
But today's accusations... in the current environment, are indeed rather harsh.
In the current situation, anyone accused of this would be eager to defend themselves.
Only Xi Mengfu frowned... but he asked back, "Shouldn't there be"
The entire court was in an uproar!
In Xia Guo, seeking peace from Qi Guo was absolutely taboo.
When Emperor Xiaoxiang died in battle, the emperor's children were nearly extinct, leaving only one capital city. Despite this, the people of Xia did not beg for peace from the State of Qi!
Shame in my heart, national hatred in my arms, so diligently governing for thirty-two years, step by step to where I am today.
Today, the Xi Mengfu household actually dared to brazenly ask this question —
"Shouldn't there be"
“It’s absolutely unacceptable!” Liu Xi was so angry her face turned red. She shouted, “Who are you, Xi Mengfu The previous Emperor died in battle. The Crown Prince succeeded him. When the Crown Prince died, the Prince succeeded him. And when the Prince died, the Princess succeeded! Our great Xia soldiers numbered in the thousands, fighting bravely and refusing to retreat. They sacrificed their lives on our land, allowing our nation to survive! You stand in this temple built upon the spirits of their sacrifices, and yet you dare to beg for peace from the Qi rebels”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Xi Mengfu took half a step back, as if dodging his flying saliva. His voice was calm: "Whether it's war or peace, someone has to speak up. Can court discussions only have one voice If we discuss and come to a conclusion, I will naturally accept it. But before that, let's stick to the facts. What are you bringing up about the former emperor Times have changed! We may have been able to fight back then, but we may not be able to do so now. "
"How can we not fight!" Liu Xiyi shouted angrily, "The entire Xia Dynasty, with its scholars and generals, and billions of subjects, have not forgotten our eastward expansion for thirty-two years!"
"Never forgetting to advance eastward..."
Xi Mengfu said: "For thirty-two years, I have not forgotten to advance eastward..."
His voice rose: "But there's been no eastward advance!"
He stared straight at Liu Xiyi, and with an extremely intense attitude that no one had ever seen in all these years, he said: "Not only has there been no eastward advance, but the Sword Peak Mountain was also broken! Taixua Zhenren was splattered with blood on the spot, and the formations built on Jianfeng Mountain for decades were destroyed. The northeast gate was wide open! And you want to offer the envoys of Pingdguo with both hands! You want to prove in front of Qi without any evidence that Great Xia has not colluded with Pingdguo! I ask you, Xiangguo, what kind of 'unforgettable eastward advance' is this!"
It was as if people only thought of it at this time.
At first, when Jiang Mengxiong inquired about the matter with Emperor Xia, Xi Mengfu, the Grand Master, was a staunch advocate for war. He advocated launching a full-scale war at that time, driving back the Qi army and not leaving Jiang Mengxiong or even the Spring Dead Army alive. No matter what, it was necessary to show the people of Qi the resolve of the Xia people.
As soon as news of the Equal Nation's uprising spread, the Qi army launched a surprise attack on Jianfeng Mountain. The Xia kingdom was also brimming with fighting spirit and clamoring to give the Qi bandits a lesson they wouldn't forget.
But after a True Monarch and five Immortals joined forces to ascend Jianfeng Mountain, everything changed...
A terrifying formation of one True Monarch and five True Immortals not only failed to repel Jiang Mengxiong, but was instead decimated by him, with one True Immortal killed on the spot.
Unable to defeat Jiang Mengxiong on Jianfeng Mountain, he had no choice but to retreat. Instead, he moved his troops and aimed to wear him down through sheer force of arms.
Then the army of dead soldiers arrived in great numbers after spring.
Then...
Also, it's in this Baohua Palace.
The ministers of Xia advised the ruler that it was not advisable to go to war with Qi at that time. They believed that Xia should continue to endure humiliation and bide their time, waiting for a more favorable opportunity.
This is a wait…
He waited until the dismantling ceremony of the Heavenly Observatory in Jing Guo, he waited until Da Meng's battle with Jing Mu, and he waited until the one million Qi troops came east!
Shame Pain Anger
Liu Xiyin's heart was filled with too much anger.
But he found that he couldn't refute Xi Mengfu's words.
This helplessness gave rise to more pain, and within the pain, more anger.
Finally, he angrily flicked his sleeve and said: "A six-toed thief is not fit to be consorted with!"
This statement seems to have touched upon some sort of taboo.
The entire Bao Hua Palace was silent for a moment!

After Jian Xian'er broke the Star Wheel once, Jiang Wang actively withdrew his sword. It wasn't that after hitting it, he could only break the Star Wheel once.
The Three Wheels Slashing Falsehood Blade of Sun, Moon, and Stars is not three divine abilities, but the Five Divine Abilities technique of Sun, Moon, and Stars plus Heavy Profound Slashing Falsehood. If you have any doubts about this, take another look at the Yellow River Gathering. There was a clear description at the time.
2, why did Jiang Wang admit defeat He even dared to draw his sword against the True Monarch, so why wouldn't he dare this time Whether his sword could kill Chong Xuan Zun is unknown. However, Chong Xuan Zun's sword can definitely kill him.
So he thought that in this battle at the outer building, he had lost. He admitted.
Don't you dare
If it were a fight to the death, even if Chong Xuan ascended to the Dao of Transformation today, Jiang Wang would still draw his sword. But this competition for the vanguard is only the first step in the struggle for the position of head of the Chong family. Jiang Wang standing up was to help Pang Sheng gain an advantage. Losing this battle means losing ground, but not the whole war. He has not given up on continuing to fight for Pang Sheng, and Pang Sheng has not surrendered the position willingly. The struggle continues.
He couldn't land that decisive strike, and his wound caused him to miss the opportunity to vanquish Xia. How could Pangshen even dream of victory now
