Being blocked by the middle-aged man, Prince Yun did not say that title and whispered: "Is it his will? But isn't he no longer caring about political affairs? You know, after entering the Northland, he was always in charge of the political affairs hall."

The middle-aged man sneered and said, "What? Do you think a small political affairs hall can put him in vain? A joke! There is nothing that can be out of his control except the National Teacher's Mansion!"

Prince Yun's face became even more ugly when he heard this, and said, "Since that, Ye Yi was doing something recklessly, why did he not speak silently? Last time he almost killed his seventeenth brother directly. If you don't know, you think that Ye Yi is the royal family and the dragon descendant!"

The middle-aged man waved his hand: "You don't have to test it. Since I said I would give you a clear idea, I wouldn't be in circles. Whether it's Ye Yi or the oppressive wind that is rising now, it's actually the man who is indulging him behind his back!"

"Hmm?" Prince Yun hesitated for a moment, but did not interrupt.

The middle-aged man continued: "Ye Yi represents no longer him, but the officials and gentry in the entire Zhongzhou. If Daxi wants to stand firm in Zhongzhou, the assistance of these people is indispensable. As long as you master them, you will be able to last for a long time! And the reason why your brothers are now acting recklessly is actually to understand the thoughts of that person and the court, and that is to deliberately oppress the people of Zhongzhou!"

As he said that, his sneered even more: "After all, we are not many people. If we want to swallow the big ones with small ones, we must make the interests of all parties equally. Otherwise, we will not stand firm. Do you oppress those civilians in the civilians and will have a bad impact on the families of officials and gentry in Central China?"

The middle-aged man shook his head.

"Wrong! They are not happy yet. You have to know. These people cannot pick their shoulders and hold their hands, but they live a life of luxury. They rely on power. But after all, this power still falls on people, reflects in commanding people, oppressing people, and enslaving people. In the past, Daning controlled the world and opened the imperial examinations. The poor family could also be soared, and encouraged private merchants. Everyone is rich, so how much coolies are there? Officials and gentry have to pay a lot of salary when hiring a helper, just like cutting out flesh."

Hearing this, Prince Yun's heart moved and understood a little.

Sure enough, the middle-aged man's words later made Prince Yun confirm his guess-

"After doing this, they don't have to spend much time in their name, and they have to hold on to the people's contracts. Therefore, this is also a bribery! Those officials and gentry are the cornerstones of a dynasty. As for the people below, they are just two-legged sheep. When they want to mess up the world, give them swords and let them fight bloody. At the critical moment, give them the name of the rioters. It's natural to get the authority! Could it be that we have planned to spend money and effort over the years and let the two-legged sheep pick fruits?"

Hearing this, Prince Yun shook his head: "But if this continues, something will happen sooner or later, and the world will be unstoppable. Once the vast public opinion gathers into a river and a sea, even the most superb master of power play will be irresistible!"

The middle-aged man nodded this time and said, "Yes, the common people gathered together and could not control the world, but they still have the ability to disrupt the world. However, after all, they cannot be big, because without the support of officials and gentry, they will not get money and food, without food, soldiers and horses will not last long, and without money, swords and swords will not be shining, but they will not succeed for a while, but..."

"It's just what?" asked Prince Yun. He had always had power contact with his uncle, but the other party had never told them this. Although he felt conflicted at first, he was also curious.

"But, in recent years, Daning has improved printing technology, published a large number of books, and has been wandering among the people, allowing the common people to read it, and opened up wisdom, and talented people emerged. Not to mention anything else, even a few big tribes on our grassland can buy it. After reading it, in the long run, everyone in the world will be clear and change sooner or later. And these generations of Emperor Ning have deliberately promoted poor disciples and produced many commoners and prime ministers, which is too harmful to the families of officials and gentry. This is also the reason why they cooperated with us so quickly."

After hearing this, Prince Yun was silent and didn't know how to tell. In his heart, he knew that his uncle was right. It was difficult to copy books such as sages. They were printed with woodblocks, page by page. Once something was wrong, the whole version was discarded, and a book was engraved. I don't know how much manpower and energy it took. The number of passed down from generation to generation is not large, and the price was expensive. It was mostly circulated among the powerful and noble families. When the powerful disciples read it, they could increase their knowledge. If ordinary families could get one, they could use it as a treasure of heirloom.

You should know that even if a person is extremely smart, he will be abandoned sooner or later, just like a warrior is extremely talented but without secrets of martial arts, it is as difficult to achieve anything. This is the same truth.

But more than 30 years ago, someone in Daning suddenly developed a printing technique that could combine word orders, which solved many problems in one go. The explosion of book printing has caused too much impact.

This is actually an information explosion in ancient times.

However, deep down in his heart, he resisted this view.

As if he guessed what Prince Yun was thinking, the middle-aged man sighed and shook his head and said, "I understand your thoughts. This is also the reason why I support you. If you can sit in that position in the future, it will definitely be a good thing for Daxi and Tianxia. At least the fate of our Xi people will not be too miserable."

Prince Yun's expression changed when he heard the last sentence: "The ending is too tragic? It seems that you have predicted that you will continue to oppress like this. Even if there is nothing wrong for a moment, the accumulation of hatred will inevitably lead to serious consequences. Why are you still blinded by these immediate interests?"

"What I just said is the consensus of the court," the middle-aged man nodded, but a hint of hesitation appeared on his face, but eventually hesitated and continued, "In addition, there is another important reason. It can be said that this reason is the real foundation!"

"The root cause?" Prince Yun seemed to realize something and restrained her expression when she noticed the solemn expression on the middle-aged man's face.

"You should know that the reason why that man was willing to let the Political Affairs Hall take charge of the center was to put aside trivial matters and focus on practicing qigong." The middle-aged man's voice became lower and lower, and Prince Yun nodded slightly.

"According to the informant in the palace, the man's kung fu has reached its peak now, but it seems to have reached a limit. If you want to go further, you can no longer do it by hard practice..."

"Huh? What does this mean?" Prince Yun's eyes moved slightly. He also had some attainments in martial arts, but his level was not enough, and he could not guess the realm that person was in.

The middle-aged man took a long breath and said in a deep voice: "The reason why I oppressed the people in Zhongzhou so much is that what I just said is the truth, but it is a consensus in the court, and it is more like a high-sounding excuse. Although some people know about it, they cannot believe it, let alone say it, because there are rumors..."

"That man acquiesced to oppress Zhongzhou in order to go further in martial arts! It is to practice martial arts!"

"I oppress Zhongzhou for the sake of practicing qigong? What is this statement?" Prince Yun looked shocked and looked stunned, feeling incomprehensible.

But at this moment.

boom!

Outside, a sudden explosion came, and then the whole room and the attic swayed!

"What's going on?"

The middle-aged man frowned and asked, and someone immediately responded outside the door. After receiving the answer, an armored guard walked in.

"Oh? Momuel, why are you? Aren't you guarding the yard? What's wrong outside?"

The armored guard did not dare to delay, so he knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "Report to the Prince, sir, I heard from the Kaiyang Sect's disciples that someone came to challenge..."

Prince Yun frowned and felt dissatisfied: "Yeah? Someone challenged the Kaiyang Sect? Those who seek revenge can make such noises. It can be seen that many people come and their cultivation is not low. Why don't you come to report such a big thing early?"

Na Momuer looked ashamed and said, "I am guilty. I heard from the disciples of Kaiyang that there was only one person coming, so I took it lightly. I also heard from the orders of General Barto at the door that the prince and the lord had something important to talk to, so I dare not disturb me."

As soon as he said this, Prince Yun remembered that before this quarrel, his uncle had ordered that no one should disturb him. Now, he thought that he was clearly planning to tell himself the secrets he had just said, and he was so careful just now, but it was too late to say these things. In addition, what Prince Yun cared about was another matter—

"You said, there was only one person coming? This is amazing. Kaiyang Sect is still a big sect. The head of the gang is asking for more success. Who dares to provoke it alone? I want to see it."

Just as his words were finished, a sound suddenly came from outside, rolling and shaking the four fields. Everyone in the room was a little dizzy by the sound!

"What's going on!"

The sound was loud, accompanied by a huge, scorching and sharp breath. The breath came. Prince Yun in the room let out a muffled groan and almost stood unsteadily.

Although the middle-aged man's face was as normal, a look of horror flashed in his eyes, and the armored guard who reported the news directly sprayed blood.

Swish! Swish!

Without saying anything, Prince Yun and the middle-aged man looked at each other, swayed, and rushed out through the window!

As soon as they rushed out, the two of them first flew into the air, followed by their legs, and used their light skills, floating down, but their eyes were turned upwards.

Above, there were some black clouds in the clear sky, coming from all directions, gathering a hundred feet in an instant, expanding, and rolling like waves, spreading out, and in a blink of an eye, the sky was covered with the sun.

Then, a hole was suddenly broken in the middle of the dark clouds, and the sunlight shot down, condensed, and merged into a long sword dozens of feet long!

"Kaiyang Gathering Cloud Sword! Kaiyang Sect is based on the masters of Zhoutian and uses the mountain protection formation!"

When the middle-aged man saw the scene before his eyes, his eyelids twitched.
