Xiao Chen looked at Leng Wufeng, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth and still had a dismissive look in his eyes, but suddenly lost his temper and sat there calmly.
"The master behind you, is this how he taught you?"
"How do I treat him? Doesn't he know clearly?"
Yue Shengfeng was heartbroken after hearing this.
However, there was no expression on his face.
Leng Wufeng actually smiled.
His face was full of ridicule.
"Hahaha."
"It's really ridiculous. As the lord of the world, you are always aloof. You are just sitting in this hall. You always think that you are overlooking all living beings. You always think that you have the power of the world and the life and death of the world."
"I can only hear the words of those princes and nobles. Even the words of a mere ordinary person can be regarded as someone else."
"It's really ridiculous and sad!"
Xiao Chen stopped Yue Shengfeng from getting up again, looked at Leng Wufeng, and said calmly: "So, you were caught on purpose, just to enter the palace and face the sage to give you advice?"
Leng Wufeng replied: "It's not really a remonstrance, it's just a feeling of injustice. Seeing the people of Li suffering, but the rich and powerful family can live happily, it's hard to calm down."
"As for the death penalty?"
"Now it seems that it doesn't matter what I say."
He could feel that the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty sitting in front of him, who was called a saint, His Majesty, and the most respected person in the world, did not care about the poverty of the people at all. Perhaps, in his eyes, this Great Zhou Emperor It's still a peaceful time.
In fact, the current Great Zhou Dynasty can indeed be considered a prosperous age, but that is only compared to the wars a few decades ago. Thousands of people are still gritting their teeth and living.
Whether it is oppression by the government, bullying by powerful families, or even seizing people's land, raping women in broad daylight, heavy taxes, etc., no matter how much harm it brings to them, as long as they are still alive, they will survive.
But there are also people who cannot survive and choose to commit suicide.
In his early years, Leng Wufeng learned martial arts and began to travel around the world just to do justice.
But when the imperial cavalry crushed the Central Plains martial arts, the taste of the world changed.
When the road is rough, draw your sword to help.
Or maybe it's chivalrous and righteous.
rarely seen.
There is only intrigue and deception, and you fight against me.
Or, for money.
Or, for fame.
Or, for martial arts secrets.
Or, for personal vendetta.
The world is greedy and always looking for the best of both worlds.
Two grasses are like one heart, but the human heart is not as good as grass.
At the beginning, Leng Wufeng really wanted to use this opportunity to remonstrate. He wanted to use his own words to make the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty wake up and stop treating the people in the martial arts world of the Central Plains as enemies.
They have never been enemies of the imperial court. They only care about the world and have never been above this temple.
Perhaps, there will be one or two people who are really ambitious.
However, there will definitely be a majority of people who uphold justice, uphold benevolence and uphold chivalry.
But now it seems that his cold words can only be said lightly.
There was a hint of admiration in Xiao Chen's eyes, and he said: "What a Qiu Shui Jian Leng Wufeng, if everyone in the world of martial arts can be like you and have the word 'Xia' in their hearts, then what do I have to fear? "
"I know what you want to say, be close to virtuous ministers, be distant from villains, appoint people on their merits, benevolent and righteous, love the people, be frivolous in corvee and despise gifts... But have you ever thought about how big Zhou Dynasty is?"
"Thirteen roads, thousands of states and counties, tens of thousands of counties, more than 100,000 villages, and more than tens of millions of people."
"In this vast country, can everyone know benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust, and can everyone abide by it?"
"People's hearts are not as old as they used to be, and greed dominates."
"What you see is the suffering of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, but what I see is the state of Zuo of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the tens of thousands of people of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"I want them to live a stable life, and I want them to live and work in peace and contentment. But look, what will happen to the local people after a snow disaster?"
"The imperial court is thinking of ways to provide disaster relief, to appease the people, and to allow them to survive, have a hot meal, and survive this cold winter."
"However, the imperial court has not yet started to provide disaster relief. It would be better for you to just burn Xingyun Village on fire. This will only increase human trouble and create difficulties for the imperial court and me!"
"It's me, don't you want them to live?"
"It's me, don't you want them to live a good life?"
"It's me, won't I give them a way to survive?"
When Xiao Chen said this, he stood up directly and said to Leng Wufeng in a deep voice: "It's yourselves!"
"It's people like you who are self-righteous, people who have evil intentions, people who are ambitious, people who don't want to give themselves a way to survive!"
Leng Wufeng looked at Xiao Chen expressionlessly, listened to his words, and shook his head slightly.
have nothing to say.
Disaster relief?
No matter how much money goes to the local government, it will only go into the pockets of those officials, and not a penny will fall into the hands of the people.
Disaster relief?
Are they helping local corrupt officials?
Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Chen with an expression that said, "I am not wrong, but the people are wrong."
Leng Wufeng stopped talking.
Xiao Chen also saw it.
Leng Wufeng didn't listen to a word of his words.
As the saying goes, if we have different paths, we will not conspire against each other.
He felt that as the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, he looked at the overall situation of the world, and naturally he could see higher, further and deeper than a knight looking at the overall situation of the world.
He is not wrong!
"You do have a pure heart. It would be a pity to kill you."
"However, you killed the official in charge of the court after all."
Xiao Chen sat down again, propped himself up, and looked at Leng Wufeng.
Wave.
"Yue Qing, take him down."
"From now on, there will be no such person as Leng Wufeng in this world."
Yue Shengfeng immediately understood what Emperor Xiao Chen was thinking, stood up, clasped his fists and bowed to salute: "Here!"
Leng Wufeng spat out a mouthful of blood.
"puff!"
Then he smiled freely.
"No need."
"In this world...it is true that there is no longer me, Leng Wufeng."
Yue Shengfeng frowned, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately stepped forward, stretched out his hand and tapped Leng Wufeng's body five times, trying to seal his bloodline.
At the same time, he placed his left hand on Leng Wufeng's wrist to feel his pulse.
Leng Wufeng said softly: "Don't bother, Bronchus. I ate it this morning. It was my own choice and has nothing to do with others."
"I just saw those people starved to death on the roadside, and their bodies were thrown directly into mass graves. However, the dignitaries in the city, those wealthy households, had plenty of fish and meat every day, and the dogs of rich families lived better than The poor people are much better off.”
"It's really... meaning. It's hard to calm down."
Leng Wufeng finished speaking.
He fell directly into Yue Shengfeng's arms.
Yue Shengfeng didn't know what to do for a while.
Xiao Chen was also stunned.
But very quickly.
He frowned and said in a deep voice: "Yue Qing, find a place and give her a good burial."
Finished.
Then he stood up, waved his sleeves, and left the side hall with his hands behind his back.
