But more importantly, it's asking—

If those who uphold propriety and virtue are able to carry out evil deeds with impunity, can such rules be considered effective If those who disregard propriety and virtue are able to cause harm, is this the fault of the emperor of Wei

Upon meeting the emperor, I boldly remonstrated against his faults.

Has always been regarded as a model for courtiers.

What is it

For in the presence of one who holds life and death in their hands, to be deemed “offensive” requires immense courage!

Even when faced with an ambitious emperor who is often willing to listen to advice, the charge of "sanjun mai zhi" (disrespecting court officials by speaking frankly) still hangs over him.

Throughout history, there have been those who sought fame even at the risk of their lives. However, there are also many examples of people whose lives could not be saved and who failed to achieve fame.

Have you not seen the astonished dragons playing in the river, making the scene surpass all others for a hundred years One day he was exiled, nameless and forgotten for many years. Now his entire family has been wiped out, who can speak of this

Yan Shaofei dares to ask such a question, taking lightly my name and already having a path to death.

Moreover, he faced an emperor like Wei Xuanche, who was renowned for his absolute rule.

He once implemented martial law across the nation, facing opposition from both court and commoners, with widespread discontent and outcry. He brandished his legal sword, proclaiming that those who opposed him were innocent but those who acted against him would be killed. However, throughout the entire court, anyone feigning illness or claiming old age was granted leave, and any officials or generals who resigned were allowed to depart freely.

Once, in the Heavenly Revelation Hall, there were not even half the usual number of officials standing. He still insisted.

Such an emperor, would he tolerate a face-to-face insult

But at this moment, faced with Yan Shaofei's questioning, Emperor Wei's voice remained calm: "Zhang Shoulian's value does not lie in his talent. But if you can't see his talent because of this, I can only say that the reputation of Wei State's first talented person is indeed overrated."

Yan Shaofei said, “In the world today, there are many who deceive and steal fame, and those whose names exceed their achievements are numerous. The first outstanding person in Wei State should naturally not be one who exceeds his achievements, but specifically to Yan Shaofei these three characters, of course, it could also be one of them.”

The Emperor of Wei stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at him: "Zhang Shoulian has served his purpose, but his time has come to an end. This reputation was originally meant for you. Where is goodness without evil Where is your heroic reputation without misconduct You haven't offended my face, so how can you be called 'upright' But I didn't expect your skills in managing things to be small, but your ability to cause trouble to be great. During these years of traveling abroad, you have even offended capable people in the court. I don't want you to soar into the sky, so before you return to Beijing, I hired assassins to kill Zhang Shoulian."

To raise a brother-in-law for my esteemed lord to kill, in order to establish your reputation! Such favor and trust is rarely seen in history.

Yan Shaofei finally understood why he could just happen to learn about Zhang Shouliang's evil deeds on his way back to Beijing. Throughout history, a ruler's heart is like the heavens', capable of orchestrating all sorts of coincidences to come to pass.

He didn't ask Zhang Shouliang why the emperor remained silent at his deathbed. The emperor's silence spoke volumes, but he chose not to speculate on its meaning.

The wandering knight under the Emperor's command simply said, "Yan Shaofei needs the emperor's name to be known throughout the world. How could he be worthy of Your Majesty's waiting How could he be worthy of 'enjoyment' In the past, I was gone, Zhang Shouliang allowed himself to be struck by others' swords; now that I have returned, Your Majesty may as well spend a long night scaling heights and admiring the red lotus!"

The Son of Heaven looked at him for a while, then slowly said: "During these years you've been traveling to distant countries, it seems Yanqing has not wasted your time."

Yan Shaofei said: "In the past, I made a pact with the emperor to bring back the first place for Wei State. Although my wish was not fulfilled on the Guanting Stage, I consider it a regret and dare not be idle."

The Wei Emperor, with a wave of his sleeve, said: “Those chosen for the top ranking by others are not to my liking! I want one who will suppress all under Heaven and make none dare defy me!”

Yan Shaofei bowed and said: "The commoner will follow your orders."

Then the emperor of Wei laughed and said, "I have the joy of having Yan at my disposal, just as Ji Fenghou has the pleasure of traveling with Jinglong, and Jiang Shu has the comfort of being with Jiang Wu. Though our beginnings may be similar, our endings will certainly not be the same!"

Ji Fengzhou was the supreme emperor who ruled over the first empire in the world, while Jiang Shu was a peerless hero who had never lost a battle in his life and led Qi State to secure its position as the hegemon.

And the Emperor of Wei compared himself to it, truly a magnanimous heart of heaven.

But compared to fellow travelers Jing Long and Jiang Wu'an, Yan Shaofei still lacked a universally acknowledged position as the leader of the Yellow River.

Compared to Wei Xuanche, Ji Fenghzhou and Jiang Shu, he still lacked the final step of establishing Wei as a hegemon over all other nations.

Yan Shaofei shook his head and said seriously, "I don't know what You Jinglong's ideals are, nor what Jiang Wuan's ideals are. My path lies outside of Wei. I have no intention of traveling far again. Yan has already perished, long ago. I am simply a wandering swordsman from Wei who happens to bear the surname Yan. I do not shoulder any responsibility for the former glory of Yan. If there is any connection, it is probably due to this divine power I possess, which makes me feel responsible for calamities."

The source of all suffering is the negativity in our present lives. What is known as "evil perception" arises from... "karma."

In the past, when the Yan Kingdom was prosperous, flames of fire and lotuses bloomed across the world without roots, a magnificent sight for all to behold.

The emperor looked at the swordsman before him, his expression profound. "Every true strongman bears responsibility for calamity," he said.

Sometimes fate is truly a remarkable thing.

Yan Shaofei casually chose a path, just happened to miss the coroner Wang, and bumped into King Biancheng.

It's also unknown whose luck is worse.

Fortunately, King Bian of the time was already near the border of Wei. He decisively halted with a murderous intent, drawing his sword without killing an enemy. He used a sword that evaded the senses, traveling at incredible speed beyond people's sight and hearing, directly escaping into Wei State.

Success and Qin Guang Wang, who was stationed outside the border, reunited.

He told Yan Shaofei to stop chasing after her, which was sound advice.

If Yan Shaofei were to pursue this far, King Qin Guang would certainly not show mercy.

“How can you kill a Zhang Shoulian of the Inner Court Realm, causing such a commotion” Qin Guangwang sat on the high embankment facing the surging river. From time to time, towering waves leaped and broke at his boots.

...And her long hair was left flowing loose.

"You'd have to ask King Wang the coroner about that." Bian Cheng Wang walked onto the riverbank, brushing dust off his sleeves as if trying to shake away bad luck.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

The coroner, Wang, dragged his weak and weary body in the black robe, swaying as he walked along the riverbank. There was a feeling of both mental and physical resistance to getting closer, yet an unavoidable pull towards it.

He stood beneath the embankment, looking up at the height above. Against the backdrop of the slowly sinking sun, King Qin Guang and King Bian Cheng sat and stood, respectively, turning their heads to look back at him.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Wang Gan, the coroner, chuckled dryly three times: "The mission is a success. Our organization's brilliant record has been further enhanced!"

But King Biancheng didn't smile, and neither did King Qin Guang.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The surging river crashed against the sturdy dam, its roar was deafening, like thunder striking from the heavens, causing a wave of tension.

“Ha! We’ve been maneuvering and fighting for thousands of miles in Wei, causing quite a stir!” Officer Wang started to show concern for his colleagues, earnestly creating an air of relief: “I reckon the news has reached Jing by now. They won’t blockade their borders anymore, and King Taishan and his men can safely evacuate!”

Qin Guangwang gazed at him gently, "You truly care about Mount Tai Wang."

The coroner, Wang Zhang, opened his hands wide and said frankly, "We are all colleagues, we should unite and love each other, help each other. Just like today when I was in danger, King Biancheng also actively saved me, I am very grateful to him."

He looked at King Biancheng, trying to make his cruel eyes look sincere: "King Biancheng, I am eternally grateful!"

"You're welcome," the King of Bian said coldly. "If you hadn't been going around telling everyone that I was also in Wei, I doubt I would have had a chance to save you."

"Is this possible" Chief Coroner Wang widened his eyes in astonishment: "Both of you know me, Coroner Wang. I've always been quiet and reserved, brave enough to take responsibility, rather die silently than live dishonestly. For the people of Wei to fabricate such lies is truly shameless!"

King Bian of the State of Wei remained silent.

Qin Guang Wang then chuckled and looked back at the long river.

"Speaking of this mission, it seems that the people from Wei were waiting for Zhang Shouliang to die and reacted exceptionally slowly. If it weren't for Yan Shaofei attacking me for no reason..." Official Wang started analyzing the situation seriously: "It seems like all the cases we've taken recently have gotten us tangled up in all sorts of complex situations."

"There is no need to blame anyone." King Biancheng said coldly, "A portion of the money we earn goes towards this."

Choose to be a knife, driven by money.

So no matter how others use it, or to what ends they put it, that is the burden this sword must bear.

“Alright,” Qin Guang Wang suddenly chuckled softly, transforming into a streak of azure light and disappearing in a flash.

Only the latter half of the voice remained, still drifting in the river wind — "This mission concludes here. We'll contact you next time."

The coroner Wang looked again at King of Bian, but he found that King of Bian had also disappeared from his sight, nobody knew where he went.

He stepped onto the riverbank, looked around, let out a sigh of relief, and then puffed up his chest with pride.

> I thought I was going to get scolded! Luckily, King Biancheng wasn't too petty, he's a really good person. Next time, I dare again.

Standing alone on a high embankment, gazing at the endless river flowing by, I feel boundless freedom.

As he was pondering where to go to a desolate burial ground for a two-day rest, he suddenly felt an extremely fast approaching presence that made him feel uneasy all over, like the scorching sun on snow! There was also an extreme sense of danger before this feeling appeared.

The sky was quietly draped in a layer of crimson.

Thirty-six kinds of literary energy with a heart of blood and courage!

Who comes Which great scholar from the dusk drum academy

At that moment, Wang Wu's mind was suddenly struck by a question—during the days he had stayed in Wei and gathered intelligence, what exactly had Qin Guang Wang and Bian Cheng Wang gotten up to

That thing runs faster than a dog!

The coroner, Wang Yi, was both surprised and enraged. However, there was no time for him to react, so he could only return the body to its original state. With a loud thud, it fell into the river.

Splish-splash, corpses fill the river, fish and shrimp feast.

It's been a while since I last visited Bai Yu Jing Restaurant, but business has been booming. Almost every floor is packed with customers.

Perhaps the landlord's temporary absence only proves that this tavern is just as lively with or without him.

In the following days, Jiang Wang devoted himself to cultivation and often sparred with Bai Yu Xia and Lin Xian.

Both of them were prodigies of the Yellow River, each with unique insights in their cultivation. Although their cultivation was not as high as Jiang Wang's current level, when they discussed and debated with each other, they often inspired new ideas.

"What do you know about the Dragon King of Changhe"

It was night, the stars shining like water. Jiang Wang, having removed his Yanluo mask, sat alone on the rooftop, engaging in a conversation with Mori Eibun for the first time in a long while.

For a long time, I refused to believe anything this old dragon said. I only saw him as a reserve power source, a "super-sized star force crystal" locked beneath the base of the Yu Heng Star Pavilion.
