When Zhao Mingyuan saw Song Zhi again, he did not expect that he would be in Xiao Mian's treasure house.
Xiao Mian had the Baling Gang to collect money for him. The Baling Gang's wealth has been gathered here for many years, which is naturally spectacular.
Of course, these gold treasures are nothing. What is more precious is the collection of the Nanliang royal family.
Although most of them were lost after the destruction of Nanliang, the pieces that can remain are naturally of high quality.
Now that Baling is under the control of the Song clan, these naturally belong to the Song family. Song Zhi is busy counting and registering.
When he saw Zhao Mingyuan coming, he asked him to pick a few items.
After all, how many things can Zhao Mingyuan get?
Zhao Mingyuan had no interest in these things at first, but he suddenly remembered that it seemed that Xiao Mian gave Kou Zhong's Jing Zhongyue as a gift.
So, Zhao Mingyuan looked at the magic weapons collected by Xiao Mian.
Sure enough, Zhao Mingyuan quickly found a long box with a note on the side that read "Sword Tyrant" Ling Master's saber.
Zhao Mingyuan opened it and took a look. Sure enough, there was a steel knife inside.
At first glance, this knife seems ordinary.
But after taking a closer look, I felt that although the handle and scabbard of the knife did not have any gorgeous decorations, it had a profound and simple flavor that made people dare not look down upon it.
Zhao Mingyuan input his true energy, and the originally dull blade suddenly changed and lit up with a dim yellow light.
With the continuous input of zhenqi, the yellow light became more and more powerful, and eventually the entire blade emitted a yellow light.
Coupled with the shape like a crescent moon, the hazy sword light is really like the crescent moon reflected in the water. No wonder Kou Zhong named it Jing Zhongyue.
Seeing that Zhao Mingyuan seemed to be interested in the sword, Song Zhi naturally would not be stingy and let Zhao Mingyuan take it away.
And seeing that Zhao Mingyuan really liked this sword, he was even more surprised and asked: "Is it possible that Mr. Zhao has also learned sword skills?"
They already knew that Zhao Mingyuan used a sword. After all, Zhao Mingyuan was wearing that golden sword on his waist. I just didn't expect that Zhao Mingyuan also studied knives.
After all, knives are different in the minds of people in the Song Dynasty. Because the leader of the Song Clan, Song Que, used a sword, people in the Song Clan became very close to the master of swordsmanship when they saw him.
Zhao Mingyuan said: "It's not just sword skills. In fact, I have learned eighteen kinds of weapons, and the sword is no exception."
Song Zhi couldn't help but said regretfully: "If Mr. Zhao specializes in swordsmanship, then eldest brother will definitely be very happy."
Now several members of the Song family already knew clearly from the Baling Gang how Zhao Mingyuan killed Xiao Mian.
Naturally, they knew that Zhao Mingyuan's strength and superb swordsmanship were far beyond their previous imagination.
Xiao Xian, a well-known grandmaster and master in the world, led three innate masters to besiege Zhao Mingyuan, but he did not block Zhao Mingyuan's move.
Although Song Zhi is known as the "Earth Sword", he is famous for his swordsmanship and is the second master of the Song clan. However, he asked himself that he could never do this.
What's more, the subsequent steps on arrows and flying across the sky are even more unbelievable.
No wonder those soldiers respected Zhao Mingyuan like a god. Even masters like them found it incredible.
Song Zhi was even wondering whether his eldest brother Song Que could do this.
It's not that he thinks Zhao Mingyuan is stronger than Song Que, it's just that Song Que's strength lies in his sword skills, not in his lightness skills.
Now, in their minds, Zhao Mingyuan is already a master similar to Evil King Shi Zhixuan.
They didn't think that Zhao Mingyuan could deal with the Evil King, they just thought that Zhao Mingyuan was very powerful. I'm afraid that no one in the world can keep him.
However, this is bad news for the enemy. But it is good news for the Song clan who wants to form an alliance with Zhao Mingyuan.
Next, they came to a secluded place to discuss the alliance. There was no outsider, only the three men of the Song family and Zhao Mingyuan.
Not to mention Fu Junma, even Liu Jing and even Song Yuzhi were left on the ship and were not eligible to participate.
Obviously, this matter is related to the Song family's next strategy, and there is no room for error.
Song Zhi's first question went straight to the core: "Master Zhao, I heard Yu Zhi talk about Master Zhao's ambition.
The world is unified and everyone is equal.
This is indeed admirable.
However, if Mr. Zhao establishes such a country, how will the Song family get along? "
Obviously, unlike Song Yuzhi, an idealist, the core of Song Zhi's problem is that I don't care what happens to the world. I just want to know, how can the interests of our Song family be guaranteed?
Zhao Mingyuan smiled and said: "Second Master Song, do you think that I want to eliminate you noble clans?"
Song Zhi asked: "Isn't it?
If the noble family is still there, how can you ensure that your dream can be realized?
Or is that just a lie you used to deceive Yuzhi? "
Song Zhi said, his face turned cold.
What if Zhao Mingyuan used big words to deceive Song Yuzhi in order to marry into the Song family.
Then, even if Song Yuzhi is sad for a lifetime, the Song family will never let Zhao Mingyuan go.
Zhao Mingyuan said hurriedly: "Hey, Mr. Song misunderstood. That is not only my great wish, but also my way in this world. How can I avoid it?"
After hearing Zhao Mingyuan's words, Song Zhi's expression softened slightly.
In the Tang Dynasty world, this sentence is quite credible.
After all, almost every master follows the path and will never go against his own will.
Otherwise, the martial arts may stagnate or even the strength may be greatly reduced. In severe cases, it can even lead to obsession and death. This is also extremely common.
This has to mention the famous evil king Shi Zhixuan of the Tang Dynasty who suffered from schizophrenia.
It was precisely because he had doubts about his Tao that he was not only unable to break through the great master, but his skills backfired, causing him to suffer from schizophrenia and the emergence of two personalities, good and evil.
Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan's words still made them believe a lot.
Then, Zhao Mingyuan explained in detail: "The clan system has been around for a long time, and it cannot be changed overnight.
Being too radical will inevitably cause backlash.
If you want to change the world, you must first open up the upward channel and break the monopoly of the wealthy elite on the bottom.
Wait for more and more people from the bottom to enter the top and occupy high positions. Soon, they will find that the existence of the clan conflicts with their interests, and they will find ways to continue to expand the advantages of their faction.
Through a reasonable system, everyone can have the opportunity to make progress.
That's enough.
As for knocking the dust off the door valve directly, the backlash would be too great, which is also unrealistic. "
Zhao Mingyuan continued: "My idea is to increase the power of the people in the world, then the influence of the clan will naturally be reduced.
For example, the current strength of the world is ten, and the clan is one of them.
If I increase the power of the entire world tenfold, it becomes a hundred.
The strength of that clan may also increase several times as a result, becoming five.
However, its share of the entire world is declining, and its influence is even worse than before.
This is my approach.
There is no need for drastic changes, as long as the strength of the people in the world is enhanced.
First, let the people of the world be fed and clothed.
Then to go a step further, it can be used for children to study and practice martial arts.
How many people are there in the clan?
How many people are there in the world?
Even if there is only one genius in a million, there are far more people than just people.
If this continues, a generation later. Although the clan will not perish, it will only become an ordinary aristocratic family and will no longer have the power to control the world. "
Hearing these words, the three members of the Song family breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Mingyuan was able to realize the power of the clan and did not go against the clan from the beginning. It seems that his hope of success is not small.
The Song family is one of the clans, and it occupies half of the country in the south, which is a clear proof of the clan's power.
If Zhao Mingyuan is determined to destroy the clan, then I am afraid that not only will they not be able to become allies, but they will become enemies.
As for Zhao Mingyuan's method, it sounds like it is quite feasible.
However, several people felt extremely uncomfortable hearing that the Song clan might eventually die.
Song Zhi asked: "If I, the Song family, support you with all my strength, but will eventually perish, then what do I, the Song family, want? Are I digging my own grave?"
Zhao Mingyuan said: "I have also considered this aspect, and it depends on the choice of the Song clan. Do you want to be a family that has been passed down for thousands of years like the Five Surnames and Qi Wang, or do you want to be a Dugu clan?"
Song Ludao: "What does this mean? What is the difference?"
Zhao Mingyuan said: "You naturally understand what the Dugu Clan is like.
Dugu Clan Since Dugu Jialuo became Yang Jian's queen, he favored the Sixth Palace alone. The Dugu clan has since become a descendant clan.
If Yang Guang, a foolish king, had not acted recklessly, it is estimated that during the Sui and Yang dynasties, the Dugu Clan would have existed as a descendant clan, and they would have both prospered and suffered losses along with the Sui and Yang dynasties.
As for the big families of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, they are thousands of years old, with talents emerging in large numbers and an endless inheritance.
If the Song clan strengthens the cultivation of talents in the family in the future, it will not be difficult to achieve this. "
How would Song Clan choose?
Of course there is no way to have it all.
After all, the relationship between Dugu Clan and Sui Yang was indeed too tight. Now that Yang Guang is dead, the status of Dugu Clan is no longer what it used to be.
In the days to come, the Dugu Clan must identify the Ming Lord and defect to him, only then can the next step be possible.
However, no matter what, the Dugu Clan is a descendant of the previous dynasty and can no longer be reused and can only live as an ordinary aristocratic family.
This is naturally not the best choice for the Song clan. It is the most ideal situation like Wu Xing Qi Wang.
However, although the Song clan did not want to become a descendant like the Dugu clan, marriage was indispensable, and Song Yuzhi still had to marry.
Now that the main issues were resolved, other details were quickly finalized. The marriage between Zhao Mingyuan and Song Yuzhi has been tentatively decided.
Of course, all this still needs to be kept secret, and it has not been finalized yet. Song Que needs to make a final decision.
Therefore, the two sides agreed that when Zhao Mingyuan became the lord of Wagang and captured Luoyang, he would need to go to Lingnan to meet Song Que.
As long as Song Que's approval is obtained, the Song family is willing to send troops to help Zhao Mingyuan strive for world hegemony.
If the two families are connected from the north to the south, the other forces in the south will inevitably follow the wind, and half of the world is already in Zhao Mingyuan's hands.
As long as the Li clan in Guanzhong is defeated again, the world will be settled.
