Outside the carriage, Wang Qinian's hand that was pulling the reins couldn't help but tremble slightly, but he stabilized in an instant and controlled the direction of the carriage to avoid any accidents.
Even Yan Xiaoyi held his breath, staring at the several ninth-rank masters outside, and listened in silence.
There was nothing deliberately hidden in the conversation between the two.
This makes this opportunity rare.
"The temple is a remnant. It can only represent a small part of the heritage." Li An sighed, as if explaining something. "How ridiculous is it that such an incomplete thing is used to define another complete thing?"
"Don't forget, your mother was born because of the temple, and she also died because of the temple."
"Your body was given by her, but your ideology was not."
"To be more precise, judging from this point alone, we are the most similar people in the world."
Fan Xian frowned and remained silent.
He just said his thoughts in a deep voice, "But this is not a reason for you to start a war with ambition! How many lives are at stake."
"I want to ask you a question."
Li An's face straightened and he interrupted the other party seriously, "If there is such a possibility: the person who becomes the Grand Master is not this person named Li An, but a person named Fan Xian. Then, can the world change something?"
"certainly."
Fan Xian answered eagerly, but after saying two words, he slowed down his voice until it became barely audible.
"You already know the answer, and of course you can't change anything."
Li An smiled and continued with the previous question.
It is so easy to talk with someone you can communicate with. The other party will not be unreasonable or make unfounded arguments. The other party understands himself and what he, Ang Lee, has done, and what he says can be as objective as possible.
"Even if I didn't show up and you achieved the Grandmaster level, you would still kill Emperor Qing!"
"This is the answer your memory tells you since birth. In your heart, Ye Qingmei is a good person, she did nothing wrong. Emperor Qing and you are not the same kind of people. He represents the royal power in the world, and you know in your heart that royal power has an end! This world will eventually move towards democracy!"
"Ye Qingmei's death is an indelible shadow in your heart. This is revenge for your mother."
"You have seen everything he has done to these princes. He also poses a threat to the people around you. In order to protect yourself and the people around you, you will also be determined to get rid of Emperor Qing."
“In the end, you pursue peace and justice.”
"You know in your heart that only by getting rid of Emperor Qing can we fundamentally end the suffering of the people and achieve peace and justice!"
"Isn't this right?" Fan Xian suddenly became excited. "Didn't you also organize the plan to assassinate Emperor Qing? Your Majesty has indeed taken the wrong path. I have no regrets about killing him!"
"I'm not saying you're wrong about that."
Li An pressed his palm in the air, signaling Fan Xian to calm down. He just asked a question, and Fan Xian was stunned on the spot: "So, after killing Emperor Qing, has the world changed?"
silence.
This is the realm called thinking.
Li An's indifferent but gentle voice sounded again: "Emperor Qing is dead, and there will be a new Emperor Qing! That person may be the crown prince, the second prince, or the third prince!"
"But, it's not you!"
He would not say these words to anyone else, not even Zhan Doudou - because no one else could understand. The only one who could understand was Fan Xian!
"If I guessed your thoughts correctly, you want to be a powerful official, right? If you are named Fan at the beginning, you will be named Fan for the rest of your life as a powerful official, and then you can push an emperor you think is suitable. This is really..." "What a contradiction!"
"You have no ambition and dare not take that last step, but you want to change the entire Qing Kingdom, and even the entire world!"
"Fan Xian, you are neither the savior nor the protagonist!"
"You never were!"
No matter how distraught Fan Xian seemed, and how he yelled outside for Wang Qinian to stop the car and get some drinks, Li An just kept on tearing apart his outer shell layer by layer, exposing his inner self to the outside world, under the bright moonlight, in broad daylight.
"Even if everything goes as you wish, and you put an end to the chaos in Qing Kingdom and let Li Chengping ascend the throne, then what? Will you retire with Lin Wan'er?"
Li An opened the car curtain, looked at the night sky that belonged to Dongyi City, and laughed:
"This world is still the same as before~"
The carriage slowly drove into the city wall. The houses on both sides of the street seemed eerily quiet and deserted.
The moonlight shining on the buildings suddenly dimmed, and a series of flickering figures revealed nervous figures: a hotel waiter, a cloth shop owner, a calligraphy and painting shop owner, and so on and so forth.
They seemed to be observing the carriage while trying their best to hide their figures.
It's like those flustered ants before the heavy rain, flying around like headless flies. Life is full of different situations.
Li An channeled his true energy into his eyes, feeling the sharpness in front of the carriage. His divine light of insight came out and he stared closely at the old figure standing high up, without ever relaxing.
The doors and windows of the houses closed silently, and figures walked back and forth on them, like gusts of wind, bringing the world back to life again.
"Does it mean that if I want to make the world fairer and make it easier for the people to live, I must sit in that position to achieve it?" Fan Xian murmured, "But hasn't my mother changed the world to a great extent? She didn't become an emperor, but she did it in her own way."
"Ye Qingmei is the culprit of everything!"
Li An sneered silently and gave the final conclusion.
These words were like spring thunder exploding in the carriage, deafening!
"What?"
"What did you say?"
Fan Xian's face, which had just come back to his senses, became confused again.
"Are you talking about the wealth she brought?" Li An's face was full of sarcasm. It's not that he thought there was anything wrong with being a science student. He was also a science student in his previous life, but how did that sentence come about?
If you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid of traveling all over the world.
That means you are not afraid yourself, but you cannot expect the whole world to be afraid!
You are rich and wealthy, but what about others?
There is a limit to the amount of money in the world!
"She made wealth circulate, and made Nanqing, Beiqi, and Dongyi City rich. What about other countries? They were moving wealth, not creating it."
"The system has not changed, and you are just a vested interest."
"It's commendable that you still have some conscience. But where is your conscience when facing the people of other countries?"
"If you really have a conscience, you shouldn't let your Uncle Wu Zhu stop me!"
“Just like what you did today”
"Don't forget that in the distant past, there were several so-called countries in this world."
"It is actually a country!" (End of this chapter)
