"You are a kid with a yellow mouth, you are alarmist, and you are not ashamed to speak!"
Emperor Zongming sneered, "If you have no elders, you have no king; if you change your name and surname, you have no father. Without a king and a father, you are a beast! You dare to imitate your father and come to me to preach? You are really inferior to every generation. .”
Gong Shangguo did not defend himself, but looked at Emperor Dayue in front of him, with a look of pity appearing in his eyes, as if he was feeling pity for something.
Call him stupid, because he is very powerful in imperial power; call him wise, he has been obsessed with seeking immortality for more than 20 years.
At first, he acted like a wise king, accepting advice and working hard to govern; later, he acted like a cowardly king, disregarding the common people and carrying out large-scale construction projects.
While he is obsessed with cultivating immortality, he is also greedy for power.
He has neither achieved great achievements nor attained enlightenment, and he has only left the government to be arbitrary, causing harm to the country and the people.
To this day, I am still obsessed with the big dream of the past, unwilling to wake up, unwilling to open my eyes to see what this world has become.
Such a person became an emperor...
Looking at Gong Shangguo's eyes, Emperor Zong Ming couldn't help but feel angry for some reason.
This bastard - seems to be pitying him?
Pity him, the Great Moon Co-Master, the Nine-Five Supreme? !
"Speak to me!"
Emperor Zongming was furious, "Come on, come on, let me hear it, how can you differ from what your father said? I won't stop you, let me take a look, what ideals does my good grandson have?" You have to tell me!"
He didn't have the heart to get angry at will, but his compassionate gaze was like looking at a beggar on the roadside - he had not seen it in too many years.
Even the most shameless Mo Qiu didn't dare to be so indifferent in front of him, and even showed compassion!
No matter how outstanding a person is, he is just a dog under his command. How dare he look at his master with such eyes?
"Do you know what Oyue is like under your rule?"
Gong Shangguo did as he wished, and even didn't bother to use honorifics. "I haven't been in court for more than twenty years, which is called rule by inaction. When setting up a cabinet, we will treat it like servants; when setting up hundreds of officials, we will treat them as enemies. Authorization They are under the control of eunuchs and use domestic slaves to rule the world. Outside, there are imperial guards who are arrogant and domineering, while inside there are eunuchs who are clever and flattering. They take and take from each other, the top is extravagant and the bottom is greedy, and they build a lot of construction projects and exhaust the people's wealth!
The world is not governed, and the people's lives are in hardship. One person's heart is used to steal the hearts of all people, and there is no way for the people to recuperate and live. The tens of millions of people under Dayue's rule have a king but no father, and they have officials but are like thieves! At the feet of the Emperor, on New Year's Day, the people who died of hunger and cold were buried in the heavy snow. It was still like this under the imperial city. How many destitute creatures are there in the world?
Asking for immortality for more than twenty years is just a dream! On the sixtieth birthday, in the Wanshou Immortal Palace, hundreds of thousands of people left their homes and brought their own money and food, unable to sow spring seeds, just for their own selfishness. There are constant natural disasters, countless refugees, conquests from the four kingdoms, a war is about to begin, and the danger of national subjugation and annihilation is just around the corner. You ask me, what is the big reason? "
When the chatterbox was opened, it was like a torrent of water flowing eastward. Gong Shangguo continued to scold him without any embellishment or embellishment.
There is no need to pile up the truth. The truth is hidden at the foot of the imperial city, among thousands of Dayue's people.
If only he had a pair of eyes and ears, he would have been able to detect all this long ago.
But, some people stand at the highest position.
His eyes are in the sky.
For more than twenty years, he refused to lower his head and take a look at all living beings.
It cannot be counted as the humble life of all living beings. Looking back, what will happen if we look back at the mixed feelings!
Emperor Zongming's face turned from white to green, then from green to red. He suddenly stood up and shouted angrily: "You bastard! Just because you read some high-level sermons and learned some benevolence and integrity from Mo Qiu, Do you dare to talk about world affairs and give advice on the country? You talk about the dangers of the world and the hardship of people's livelihood, all of which are attributed to me!
Since I ascended the throne, I have respected Heaven and cultivated my body. I can't lie down on a bed, eat no more than five kinds of food, and take no more than eight sets of clothes. Although natural disasters are frequent, they can still be saved; when wars on the border are insurmountable, how can we not win? The stars fall from the sky at night, and the fate of immortality grants me a face. These are all my merits. Even God has mercy on me for this. How can I allow you, a child who talks nonsense, to speak nonsense?
The conquest of the four kingdoms was driven by the desire for profit, just because of the mysterious and magnificent plot of immortal fate. How can I be more guilty of this crime! As the emperor of a country, I should be supported by all people. The Wanshou Immortal Palace only lasted for ten years, and it only had hundreds of thousands of people. How could it be possible to build such a large-scale building? There are tens of thousands of people in Dayue. I can’t enjoy it anymore? ! "
Gong Shangguo looked at Emperor Zong Ming in disbelief, at the emperor of the moon.
It turns out...it turns out that's what he thought.
There are tens of thousands of people in Dayue, so why should he be given hundreds of thousands to build a palace?
Natural disasters continue and the people suffer. These are disasters caused by the cycle of heaven and must not be blamed on him.
But when the stars fall from the sky at night and the fate of immortality comes, it is the merits on his head that are manifested.
The division is really clear!
Gong Shangguo was a little lucky that he hadn't eaten anything when he came, otherwise he would have vomited it out.
"Respecting Heaven and cultivating one's moral character have caused the alchemists to bring harm to the country for more than twenty years; they cannot lie down in a collapsed building, and cannot hold it without the altar of the gods; they cannot eat with the five flavors, and cannot hold it without the best utensils; they cannot eat more than eight sets of clothes, without the blood and tears of all peoples. Natural disasters are constant, and the rivers and lakes are bound to reach their destination; sufferings are everywhere, and corvee labor is frequent; immortal fate descends at night, and the four kingdoms come to fight..."
As he spoke, Gong Shangguo stopped talking and stared at Emperor Zong Ming with mocking eyes. He shook his head and said: "Blame me. Blame me for mistaking your family world as a country and actually want you to know." Things outside the palace."
This is the most complete denial.
Emperor Zongming - no, he cannot even be evaluated as an emperor.
If we only talk about power and tactics, perhaps looking at all dynasties, he is considered to be outstanding. Even if he has not been in court for more than 20 years, he can still control the country, the country, and the country. This ability is definitely beyond the reach of others.
But he has power in his hands, but he can't hold half of the country and the country in his heart. He has long hidden his heart in the sky, and his mind is full of selfish desires.
The situation is already in critical condition, but we are still talking freely about our own merits and benefits, and talking about evasion. How can such a country not decline?
There is no one in the world who is selfish who can surpass him!
The Mohist who was running around might be able to save thousands or tens of thousands of people, but how could he accomplish anything under such an emperor?
No matter how lofty your ideals, beliefs and will are, they still need a situation in which they can be exerted!
I'm sorry, I've given up completely.
Emperor Zongming was so angry that his body was trembling, and he said angrily: "If you are not an emperor, what do you know? Open your mouth to the world, but keep your mouth shut to the common people. Are you teaching me to do things? As my grandson, you feel that Dayue is not good, so if you don't change, Instead, you came to me and complained about your merits and demerits. Are these things you can talk about freely? Do you want me to pass on the position to you and let you be the emperor?"
Gong Shangguo looked at him coldly, without saying a word, and his heart was filled with despair.
"Come here, throw him into the prison!"
As the sleeves and robes danced, an unmistakable voice echoed in the Yangxin Hall.
