After resolving the rampage of the Dragon King of the West Sea, the sound of heaven and earth continued, as vast as the sea, for a long time.
Wang Yangming stepped lightly on the clouds and slowly descended to the dust.
He was dressed in plain clothes, just like an ordinary scholar, without the majestic look of a saint.
But if you look closely, you can feel the difference in Wang Yangming's temperament.
He was surrounded by a vitality like an ancient tree in spring, and seemed to carry the elegant fragrance of a thousand-year-old book.
It can touch people's hearts and convince them inadvertently.
The people around, seeing his grace and elegance, were all filled with awe and wanted to kneel down and pay their respects.
But Wang Yangming flicked his sleeves lightly, and the gentle force dissolved their movements, so these people did not kneel down.
A saint is not a god or Buddha, he does not need people to kneel down to him.
He spoke, his voice soft but resounding like a morning bell and evening drum, echoing throughout every inch of Nanling:
"Today, a dragon clan is disturbing the Nanling Mountains, leading to the rebellion sweeping across the Nanling Mountains. Fortunately, our army and people are united and have overcome the difficulties together. We have finally put an end to the war and restored peace to the Nanling Mountains.
As for the greedy dragon, he has now been executed. I ask you all to work together to rebuild Nanling."
The voice was not loud, but it could be heard throughout Nanling.
However, as a result, the major forces in Nanling, for better or worse, have begun to reshuffle.
No matter what, the disappearance of so many ancient and powerful forces is naturally a good thing for Nanling.
"Thank you, sir. Your merits are immeasurable and your reputation will be remembered forever!" The people thanked him in unison.
Wang Yangming smiled slightly and continued, “I want to establish the Longgang Academy in Nanling and travel around.
Where the heart goes, reason follows; the clearer the knowledge, the more solid the action.
Conscience is the pearl in everyone's heart, and it does not need to be sought from outside. We should uphold the principle of educating all people, enlighten the people's wisdom, and work together to achieve the great goal.
If we can find our true selves and understand our conscience, then everyone can become a saint."
After saying this, he turned around and discussed the affairs of the academy with his disciples.
He prepared to ask a few disciples to pack up and start the process of establishing a college and traveling for study.
But now the prefect of Jiaozhi City came out. He was originally in a sorry state, but after receiving the Dragon Rain, his injuries had almost recovered. He felt a little embarrassed when he saw Wang Yangming.
With his current rank, he cannot even meet such a saint if he wants to, and even His Majesty the Emperor may not be able to meet him.
I had originally wanted to find a substitute to replace him, and I even locked him up with those refugees. It was such a calculated thing.
Even though Wang Yangming was magnanimous and would not care about his mistakes, after all, he was also doing it for Jiaozhi.
He would not worry too much about the morality of saints.
But if the people in the court knew this, it might not be the case.
You know, those officials in the court who are just sitting there doing nothing.
It would be troublesome if someone wanted to win over Wang Yangming, knew these things, and used himself as a chess piece or gift to please the saint.
Although he was only a county governor for one term, he made great contributions and defended Jiaozhi.
But in the eyes of the high-ranking officials in the court, he was not a big shot. If they could win over Wang Yangming, they would not feel sorry even if many people died.
If the county magistrate could become Wang Yangming's disciple, all these things would surely disappear.
What's worse, you may also rise to the top.
"I have met you, sir. Your attainment of enlightenment is a blessing for the people of Nanling."
At this point, the prefect bowed as a disciple, and then continued, "I would like to ask how the Nanling rebels should be dealt with.
What is the current situation of Nanling? Please enlighten me, sir."
When Wang Yangming met the county magistrate, he naturally understood his difficulties. In fact, he did not make many mistakes in the Battle of Jiaozhi.
The city of Jiaozhi was able to be defended thanks to many correct judgments.
Seeing through his heart, he comforted him gently: "The matter of the rebellion should be reported to the court and dealt with according to the law.
As for the future of Nanling, the emphasis is on education, building more colleges, promoting etiquette, and at the same time eliminating the dross and retaining the essence, preserving good customs, and abandoning bad habits.
I will communicate these matters with the court myself, so the prefect does not need to worry."
Upon hearing this, Wang Nan burst into tears of gratitude and bowed again to express his gratitude: "I, Wang Nan, on behalf of the millions of people in Nanling, would like to thank you, my teacher, for your profound kindness and great virtue!"
The disciple of the old man Nanling, the King Huan who helped Da Gan, was relieved when he saw the old man Nanling.
In this great struggle, it seems that my choice has won.
His relationship with the Gu King was extremely bad. The other five people were invited by the Gu King, but he was the only one not invited.
Without knowing what the old man Nanling was thinking, if the Gu King really gained the upper hand, then he would definitely not survive.
That's why he joined Dagan. It seems that maybe it was a good thing that the Gu King didn't invite him at that time.
When the old man from Nanling saw King Huan nodded, he thought that among his seven disciples, only this one was pleasing to his eyes.
"You did a great job."
After hearing this, King Huan immediately knelt on the ground and said that he dared not.
In sharp contrast to the four rebellious disciples, the Curse King was still in a relatively stable mood.
After all, he realized his mistake and turned back to the right path, and did not take action against the people of Nanling. He even cast a spell that was broken by the old man of Nanling.
In the end, he brought the information to the old man in Nanling, which was considered as meritorious service for his crime, and his life was most likely saved.
But the remaining three people didn't know what to say. Escape? Could they escape?
If the Dagan court wanted to kill them, they might be able to escape, but at this moment it was the old man from Nanling who wanted their lives.
Their approach is that no matter which normal force is in existence, the serious crime of betraying one's teacher and ancestors cannot be tolerated.
There are so many of their master's poisonous insects and spies around Nanling. How could they possibly get away?
