Geling City.
Lin Ye climbed to a high place again. Since returning to Geling this time, he has not sat quietly on a high place for a long time.
He doesn't like quiet so much, he just likes heights.
When sitting on the city wall and looking into the distance, Lin Ye could always see things that could only be seen from high places.
It’s not in front of you, and it has nothing to do with looking at it.
All the city gates in Geling City are being repaired. They need to find a way to remove the iron gates first, and then find a way to install them. During this process, of course, the city gates still cannot be opened.
Lin Ye actually didn't need to find a reasonable excuse for not opening the city gate. At this time, no matter what unreasonable thing he did, he could use one sentence to confirm its rationality.
For example, at this time, Lin Ye sent someone to say that the various families took advantage of the emperor's absence to imprison the prince and try to rebel.
The people naturally believed it, even if they didn't believe it, they had to believe it, because Lin Ye won.
If the city gate cannot be opened, there is a reason why it cannot be opened. Killing for a day and a night is not the end, but the beginning of a large scale.
Next, the city gate will not be able to be used normally for a number of days before it is possible to end it.
This day and night is very short, just the sun rises and sets. This day and night is very long, it is the life of countless people.
At this moment, many people want to see Lin Ye and ask Lin Ye what to do next. Many people also want to ask Lin Ye, what do you think now?
From early morning to now, Lin Ye had only seen two people.
One was Xumi Pianruo, the assistant to the office. Originally, the assistants planned to come together, but halfway through, Yao Xinyuan and Zhao Miaoxin became a little scared, and finally chose to wait under the city wall.
The question that Xumi Pianruo asked Lin Ye was the same as the question that many people wanted to ask Lin Ye. . . . . . What to do next?
Lin Ye's answer was. . . . . . You are the Second Assistant to the Administrative Office, you should not ask me what to do.
Xumi Pianruo looked back at the scene in the city, sighed and said if I don't ask you at this time, who will I ask?
Lin Ye's answer made Xumi Pianruo wake up suddenly, and then hurried away.
"If I are treasonous, kill people, ascend to a high position, and sit on the Dragon Throne, you can come and ask me what to do. As long as you come and ask questions, you will admit that it is okay for me to sit on the Dragon Throne. How dare you If you don’t dare, go to the city wall and ask a general leading the army what to do next and what do you think?”
This sentence made Xumi Pianruo break into a cold sweat after asking.
Yes, if he admitted that Lin Ye was plotting to usurp the throne, then if he came to ask what to do, wouldn't he be admitting Lin Ye's usurpation in his heart, and wouldn't he be asking the new king how to deal with it?
If he didn't admit that Lin Ye was plotting to usurp the throne, then as the second assistant to the office, why would he ask Lin Ye what to do?
Or was it that, unknowingly, even though he firmly believed that Lin Ye was not plotting to usurp the throne, he still vaguely recognized Lin Ye as the number one person in his heart?
The fact that you have come to ask this proves that you have surrendered in your heart. When Your Majesty comes back in the future, will he expect to see you, an auxiliary minister, surrender?
A junior assistant now behaves like he will listen to whoever has the bigger fist, and even comes to ask for instructions in person. If His Majesty knows about this, it will be impossible for Xumi Pianruo to live a good life in the future.
So after being reminded by Lin Ye, Xumi Pianruo came down in a cold sweat, and when he saw the two assistants clarifying his words, they were also sweating instantly.
For everyone, there is a fork in the road at this time. If you go this way, you will be a hero who stabilizes the situation of the government. If you go that way, you will be a criminal who is complicit and rebellious.
When the three assistants were riding back in the carriage, they all asked a question in their hearts.
Why would I choose to ask Lin Ye for advice so naturally?
Am I really a weed growing on the wall, listening to the strong wind over there?
They left, and Lin Ye sent them away with only two sentences.
The second person Lin Ye met could not be dismissed casually.
At this moment, he was still standing not far away. Lin Ye was looking into the distance, and he was also looking into the distance. In fact, there was no distance in Lin Ye's eyes, and in fact, there was no distance in his eyes.
"Sir, are you worried about me?"
Lin Ye suddenly asked.
Xin Yanque shook his head: "I'll worry about it for you. I don't even know how to clean up my smugness."
Lin Ye smiled.
Mr. Xin is a really free and easy person, even though he does look slutty right now.
Because first there were rumors that he was imprisoned by Lin Ye, and then there were rumors that he was imprisoned by the rebel king Luo Shen and others.
Anyway, no matter what, his current image in the hearts of the people is that of a loser.
Not to mention that the majesty of the Prince of the Supervisory State was not even a feather, nor was the prestige of the Shangyang Palace.
He is not only the prince of the prison country, he is also the real person in charge of Shangyang Palace.
During the period of his disappearance, Shangyang Palace was also inactive. People used to regard Shangyang Palace as the place of gods, but now they may think so. . . . . . That's it.
Not as good as General Lin Yeduo.
Xin Yanque said, "How about you teach me?"
Lin Ye: "I won't teach you."
Xin Yanque: "Why?"
Lin Ye: "Because the charisma on Mr.'s body cannot be washed away even if it takes five hundred years. It can be written cleanly in the history books, and it can be passed down orally for ten generations."
Xin Yanque: "Thank you very much."
Lin Ye: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xin Yanque curled his lips.
He looked at Lin Ye. He truly admired this young man immensely and had no reservations. If he hadn't been a prince and a leader, he would have wanted to give Lin Ye a thumbs up.
What he admired about Lin Ye was not just the planning before and after, nor just the ruthlessness of this day and night.
What he admired was that Lin Ye must have an escape strategy that no one could stop.
To put it simply, he admired him because he didn't think of an escape plan for Lin Ye that no one could stop.
"if......"
Xin Yanque asked, "I'll call you sir now. Can you tell me how you plan to escape?"
Lin Ye said: "Curiosity makes me shameless. Shamelessness makes me lose my life. Sir, you call me sir. You don't want to ask me how I plan to run away. You probably want to shorten my life and send me away."
Xin Yanque chuckled.
He really couldn't figure it out. If the emperor blamed him, how could Lin Ye leave safely?
"Forget it, if you tell me, then it probably won't be foolproof."
Mr. Xin looked at Lin Ye: "But I'm still curious, why don't you look happy at all?"
Lin Ye said: "After this is done, the most important thing is not how I escaped unscathed, but that many people came from the dark to the light throughout the day and night. I have to ensure that they escape unharmed."
Xin Yanque suddenly understood why the city gate wasn't open yet.
How many calculations did Lin Ye have in his head to be able to do things so precisely when needed?
"But if they all leave, what about you?"
Xin Yanque said: "If you don't leave alone, you will have to explain to His Majesty alone in the future."
Lin Ye said: "This is my own business."
At this moment, no. . . . . . Not at this moment, but a long time ago, Lin Ye could actually guess something.
Those brothers, they plan so well, they hide so deeply, and they can do their best at critical moments.
It is very likely that the driving force behind this is the Emperor Dayu.
If this is the case, the emperor will certainly not punish all the swordsmen in bamboo hats who participated in this matter.
But Lin Ye never speculates on the outcome of anything and relies on speculation and arrangements.
Even if those brothers were indeed arranged by the Emperor himself, Lin Ye still wanted to send them all away as safely as possible.
The emperor did what the emperor wanted to do, and Lin Ye did what Lin Ye should do, one for the success of things, and the other for peace of mind.
"Let me ask you another question."
Xin Yanque said: "The people of Dayu are actually still deeply disappointed. Even if you get rid of the cancer in so many people's hearts, they still don't trust the court and still have no expectations for the future..."
When he said this, Lin Ye turned back to Xin Yanque and said, "Sir, you want to ask me, if I really walk towards that chair now, the people in the city will probably accept it, so why don't I try?" try?"
Xin Yan has a bad head.
Lin Ye looked into the distance again.
After a long time, he answered the question: "Sir, you underestimate me too much, and you underestimate your Majesty too much."
Xin Yanque didn't understand this sentence at first, but later he realized that Lin Ye was looking into the distance when he said this sentence. He finally came to his senses, why didn't Lin Ye try it?
Because Geling City is too small.
Geling City is the capital city. It is very prosperous, with a population of millions, and is the largest city in the world.
But it's just a city.
Geling City is small, are Wang Luoshen and others really that small? Only in this city?
If so, why should the emperor be so worried and why should the people be so disappointed?
It's not just a disappointment. If it's just a disappointment, Lin Ye's massacre in Geling City will rekindle the people's hope, but is it rekindled?
Only when Lin Ye walked towards the chair could the people in Geling City really ignite a little hope.
But what about the people outside Geling City?
Just because Lin Ye actually walked towards that chair, they would not feel like they had hope like the people in Geling City.
There was a massacre in Geling City, but there was no one around them. The place remained the same as it should be, with no change at all.
They have to worry every day about whether they will have enough to eat today, and they also have to fear the injustice that may happen at any time.
If anyone dares to say now that the people will rejoice and regain their faith because of Lin Ye's killing, that must be a lie, a lie that even the speaker himself cannot deceive.
There are two people in this world who never allow themselves to lie to themselves at any time.
One is the emperor and the other is Lin Ye.
Just the two of them.
Never allow others to deceive yourself. That is nonsense. It may sound a little domineering, but in fact this sentence itself is deceiving yourself.
Never allow yourself to deceive yourself in order to understand what you are.
At this moment, Xin Yanque couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Geling... is indeed a bit small."
Lin Ye hummed, but his eyes still stayed in the distance.
Xin Yanque also understood at this moment that Lin Ye's distance was really different from other people's distance.
It's about going out and walking back.
"If nothing else happens, His Majesty should be back."
Xin Yanque said to himself again: "He's back. The smell that can't be washed away from my body can only be made invisible so that the people can't smell it for the time being."
He was a little angry when he said this.
"I clearly know that he arranged all this, so he must have such a beautiful thing on me, but why didn't I know to refuse when he told me this?"
When he said this, he sounded really angry.
Lin Ye smiled.
He said: "There is a particularly vulgar saying that is the answer that Mr. himself has long ago. This sentence will always make people feel very fake. It is so fake and empty. When someone with a high status says it, it will make people feel hypocritical. If a person with a low status says it, it will make people feel ridiculous... And the reason why Mr. agreed is because he hopes that in the future, when a person with a high status says this, it will make people feel that he is taking responsibility. A person with a low status will say it. When you say this sentence, it makes people think that it is self-confidence and self-improvement.”
Of course Mr. Xin knew, because what Lin Ye said was right, it was that sentence that was deeply rooted in his bones and engraved in his heart, but he was always embarrassed to say it out loud.
I love my country and I love my people.
I know that the people of the Central Plains are miserable, so I love every inch of the land in the Central Plains.
The soil is solid under the feet, and people are born on the soil.
When the earth is not there, the people are not there; when the people are there, the earth is still there!
Xin Yanque took a deep breath and shouted out into the distance outside the city.
"I really love this land, and I really love the people on this land even more."
