"Get out of the way! Get out of the way, everyone!"
"Gongsun Yan is a criminal of the imperial court! Those who intercede for him will be treated as guilty!"
"Get away!"
"..."
Half an hour later, it was the beginning of the hour.
Although there was still a full hour left, under the "escort" of thousands of forbidden troops, the prison car escorting Gongsun Yan had already driven out of Longshou Mountain and headed towards Caishikou.
There is no doubt that the carriage and the imperial army encountered heavy obstacles as soon as they came out of the mountain.
Countless people crowded on both sides of the street, and the calls for "release them" became louder and louder. Some even knelt in the middle of the road, making the escort team move very slowly.
Although they shouted that "pleading for mercy on behalf of a convicted criminal is considered a crime," of course the heavily armed Imperial Guards would not actually kill people to clear the way.
The more this happened, the more "unscrupulous" the people became. After all, the court did not dare to kill people, but Wei Changtian really dared to kill people.
Therefore, as more and more people "attacked", after exiting a street, the prison car finally reached the point where it was difficult to move.
The sound of "ta da da da" hoofs was noisy, and various shouts were crowded.
The scene suddenly became extremely chaotic, and Wei Changtian, who saw all this from behind a window on the second floor of a certain teahouse on the street, showed a smile.
"Hmph, it's hard to say if the prison van can reach the market entrance with this posture. I want to see what Chu Xianping has in store."
Looking at the chaotic streets with a calm expression, Wei Changtian's tone was very relaxed.
Yang Liushi on the side rolled her eyes at him, smiled and joked:
"Ms. sir, don't get carried away too soon."
"Mr. Chu has pledged his public opinion to Longshou Mountain. Naturally, he will not give up easily and will try again no matter what."
"Try? What can you do?"
Wei Changtian shook his head nonchalantly: "Instead of killing someone to clear the way, I can't imagine what else he could do."
"And if he really does that, he has already lost."
"It's impossible to say for sure. Others may not be able to do anything about it, but Chu Xianping..."
After a pause, Liu Shi did not continue talking about this issue, but suddenly changed the subject and asked: "My lord, Chu Xianping is about to leave, why do I still have to argue with you?
"Even if he wins in the end, Lu Yuanjin will definitely not be able to secure the throne. Why doesn't he just admit defeat and let you accept the favor?"
The topic shifted to Chu Xianping, and Yang Liushi’s doubts were actually shared by Wei Changtian)
really.
Chu Xianping said last night that no matter what the outcome was today, he would immediately hunt down and kill those Kuilong people.
Therefore, the winning or losing of this bet seems to be of little significance.
Chu Xianping couldn't control the big game even if he won, so he might as well give himself a favor.
But why is he still so serious?
"Or maybe I just want to see who is at fault between him and me."
Withdrawing his gaze, Wei Chang no longer looked at the scene outside the window: "He still believes that all people in the world should know what justice is like him."
"Huh? Then he should be disappointed."
Yang Liushi smiled and blinked: "Looking at it now, most people are still selfish after all."
"Selfish...well, not necessarily."
Sighing, Wei Changtian unexpectedly rejected Yang Liushi's point of view.
This sentence "not necessarily" is obviously completely contrary to what he has done before, and naturally makes Yangliu Shi very puzzled.
"Why do you say that?"
Yang Liushi pointed out the window and asked doubtfully: "If these people are not selfish, why did they come here to stop the prisoners and Gongsun Yan to plead for mercy?"
"After all, don't they value their own lives more than the justice of their family and country?"
"Life is more important than justice, is this selfish?"
Looking at Yangliu Shi, Wei Changtian smiled and asked: "The so-called selfishness is just seeking profit."
"And since it's about profit, there has to be a comparison."
"If you think it's worth it, there's nothing to regret even if you take it."
"If you feel it's not worth it, you won't be able to part with even a penny. (This chapter is not over yet!)

. "
"In the end, being selfish or not is just a matter of whether it's worth it or not."
"These people just feel it's not worth it because they haven't done anything wrong."
"..."
Selfish or not, it’s just whether it’s worth it.
Hearing Wei Changtian's words, Yang Liushi couldn't help but be stunned.
Because according to this statement, there will be no selfish or selfless people in the world.
After all, there is no unified standard for "whether it's worth it". Everyone has their own judgment.
so......
"Ms. sir, if this happens, the slave family will have something to think about."
After pondering for a moment, Yang Liushi suddenly asked softly: "Before Fengyuan was sent back to the million-strong army city, the surnames in the city defended the city together with the defenders for a full month."
"You must know that the new dynasty has only been established for only half of the time. Most of the people even feel that they are still great servants and do not have much sense of belonging to the new dynasty."
"If it is according to what you said, shouldn't the new people feel that they are not worth it?"
"But why are they willing to defend the isolated city, even if they die?"
Looking at the sky, Yang Liushi quickly expressed his doubts.
This question hits the nail on the head and is very practical.
Compared with Xinfeng, which was just established, Dahui, which has a history of thousands of years, has gone through vicissitudes of life. The people's "national identity" is undoubtedly stronger, and logically speaking, they should be more willing to sacrifice for the country.
But why can the people of Fengyuan City fight desperately against the invaders, while the Dahui people are so "living"?
This obviously conflicts with the statement of "is it worth it"? If I have to explain it...could it be that the new people's "want to be enlightened" is higher?
Or...
"You forgot one thing."
Shaking his head, Wei Changtian calmly replied: "It's hope."
"hope......"
Yang Liushi's eyes suddenly widened. Although Wei Changtian's answer was very concise, she still figured everything out in an instant.
"Although Fengyuan was in crisis at the time, there was still hope, so the people were willing to resist..."
"But now the people in Yongding City have no hope, so why are they like this..."
Muttering to himself, Yang Liushi finally understood why Wei Changtian's army left the city.
The latter also said softly at this time:
"That's it."
"If the city had not prepared an army, but had put on a defensive posture, the people of Yongding would not be as good as they are now."
"But it's a pity that the city defense army has long been out of control of Lu Yuan. Plus I gave them a way to survive, so they will naturally escape."
"And once they escape, the people have no other choice but to plead for Gongsun Yan."
"So now that the overall situation is over, it's useless for Chu Xianping to do anything."
"Unless he can convince the people that he still has..."
"boom!!!"
Suddenly, an earth-shattering sound came from the sky, like a rolling wave, drowning out Wei Changtian's unfinished words and the chaotic sounds outside the window.
With a frown, Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi looked at each other, then quickly walked to the window and looked out.
The ground trembles, the dragon roars into the sky)
I saw that the huge Longshou Mountain in the distance was shrouded in a vast fog at some point, and then there was a long rainbow rising into the sky.
The rainbow is like a golden waterfall flying down from the sky, and its momentum is so majestic that it cannot be added.
These visions are undoubtedly extremely shocking.
But this is not over yet.
Because just a moment later, a huge dragon soaring over Suyun rushed out of Changhong in the astonished eyes of countless people, guarding the top of Dragon Head Mountain with incomparable majesty!
Transformed into dragon veins, the divine dragon protects the country!
