Hearing Chu Jiang say this, Song Qing stared at Chu Jiang for a while before saying, "You seem to no longer hate me?"

There was a hint of uncertainty and confusion in his tone.

"It was because Jiang didn't know the Empress before. Now, Jiang has a preliminary understanding of the Empress. Jiang feels that as long as he knows the Empress, few people will really hate the Empress." Chu Jiang chuckled.

All these things he told the truth, and he was not afraid of Song Qing's almost mind-reading ability.

No wise man would dislike a character who is powerful but has a simple and easy-to-use character.

The strategists of this era may have ignored this because of Song Qing's identity, but Song Qing's identity cannot affect him.

However, although he felt that Chu Jiang's tone was very sincere, Song Qing was not happy because of Chu Jiang's words: "But even my father and brother don't like me."

Although it was not stated clearly, Song Qing's meaning was already very clear.

That was her father and brother.

People who are so close to her hate her, how can she believe Chu Jiang's words?

Facing Song Qing's doubts, Chu Jiang smiled softly.

He had thought of these questions before he came.

Without answering Song Qing's question in a positive way, Chu Jiang asked directly: "There is something Jiang is unclear. How dare you ask the Empress, is the first guardian of the great man?"

Song Qing shook his head.

Although I don’t know why Chu Jiang asked this, there was a guardian in every generation for four hundred years.

If we insist on talking about the first guardian of the Han Dynasty, it would be Lu Zhi.

It is precisely because Lu Zhi is the guardian of the Han Dynasty and has the national fortune that Han Xin, a military immortal of the generation, was captured so easily by Lu Zhi.

Seeing this, Chu Jiang smiled: "Since the Empress is not the first guardian of the Han Dynasty, how dare Jiang ask the Empress, for four hundred years, is there any guardian who is disliked by others? You must know that even Empress Lu, no one dared to say anything during his lifetime."

Listening to Chu Jiang's words, Song Qing's expression became more and more gloomy.

"So, is it true that this palace is not virtuous?"

Losing virtue? A sarcasm appeared on the corner of Chu Jiang's mouth.

"No, this is because of the hearts of the human race, Empress."

"Human heart?" Song Qing looked at Chu Jiang in confusion.

This was the second time she had heard this statement from Chu Jiang's mouth.

This is why she summoned Chujiang into the palace.

Chu Jiang told her that as long as she can understand people's hearts, she can make others no longer hate her.

"Empress, Jiang wants to ask Empress a question. Not to mention Emperor Guangwu, Jiang only asks, no matter what after death, what will the world do to them when Empress Lu, Marquis of Changping, Marquis of Bolu and others are alive?"

Song Qing hesitated for a moment and said, "Awe."

Nodding, Chu Jiang agreed with Song Qing's statement: "That's right, awe. Whether it is respect more than fear or fear more than respect, it is still awe. Can the Empress know why, as both the guardians of the Han Dynasty, they do not respect the Empress?"

"I am unethical." Song Qing's expression dimmed a little again.

Chu Jiang smiled and said, "Really, Empress? How dare Jiang ask Empress, what kind of virtue did the Empress do?"

Song Qing couldn't speak.

She didn't know why almost everyone hated her, and she didn't understand why Liu Hong abandoned her just because of the eunuch's words.

Because she didn't understand, she could only blame all this on her own lack of morality.

But where did you lose your morality?

She doesn't know.

After sighing softly, Chu Jiang said, "Empress, respect, respect, respect and fear are inseparable. The Empress said that she had lost her virtue, but how could the Empress compare to Empress Lu? However, even Empress Lu, no one was afraid of her when she was alive. Because Empress Lu killed King Liang, killed Marquis of Huaiyin, and killed King Zhao, the power had already been deeply rooted in people's hearts. Therefore, she did not dare not be afraid. So, does Empress understand?"

When Song Qing heard Chu Jiang say this, he looked a little dazed.

"Empress, with the Queen, shoulders the destiny of the Han Dynasty. In ancient and modern times, only Empress Lu and Empress were the two. And as a woman, they held the greatest power in the world, which is why they hated Empress. They were afraid of the Empress's power, and they were jealous of the Empress's power in the world. When they found that the Empress would not do anything to them, this fear and jealousy turned into disgust. This is the heart of the human being, Empress."

Song Qing didn't say anything.

Chu Jiang's words undoubtedly subverted many of the ideas in her mind, and no one has ever said this to her.

She has been fond of Huang-Lao's studies since she was a child, and she has always been exposed to the concepts of tranquility and inaction.

She knew the responsibilities she shouldered and knew how much harm this power would cause if it was abused, but she never thought that her inaction would become the source for others to hate her.

She is indeed very simple and has no scheming, but this does not mean that she is stupid. Although she is unwilling to admit it, she understands that what Chu Jiang said is indeed very reasonable.

Looking at Song Qing's expression, Chu Jiang continued: "As the Empress, even if she is in charge of the regent like Empress Lü, no one can say anything. But the Empress did not do so. Even the Empress had basically never used this power, which is the root cause of their disrespect for the Empress."

"But, if I don't take power, they shouldn't be happy, right? Why do they hate me?" asked back in a depressed manner, Song Qing's eyes were full of confusion.

Chu Jiang shook his head: "It's not that, Empress. Human desires are always endless. When he has mastered a certain amount of power and tasted the taste of power, he naturally wants to gain greater power. For example, Your Majesty. When the Empress helped Your Majesty cut off Wenxi, it can be said that it was because of the Empress that Your Majesty was in great power, but what did Your Majesty treat the Empress? Therefore, this is not the question of whether the Empress can take power or not. The existence of the Empress itself is the greatest power in the world. As long as the Empress exists, no matter how much power they hold, they will still feel that they are being pressed over the head. No one in power will want to have someone above him who can control his own life and death."

Song Qing was silent again.

Even though she didn't want to believe all this, she knew in her heart that what Chu Jiang said was most likely true.

After a long silence, Song Qing looked at Chu Jiang in front of him. This young man who was only eleven or twelve years old but seemed to see through the hearts of the people: "Then do you think, what should I do?"

"Take back the power that should belong to the Empress." Chu Jiang said directly without hesitation.

The pretty face was filled with a slight smile, but fearing that the world would not be confused.

"They disrespect the Empress only because the Empress is too quiet and incompetent. Respect and respect. As long as the Empress takes back the power that should belong to the Empress and let them understand who is the most powerful person in the world, then they will naturally fear the Empress from the bottom of their hearts and respect the Empress. Because their life and death are controlled by the Empress, they cannot be disrespectful."

"But you said before that because of fear, they hate this house."

"Empress, that's because their fear is not enough. Because what the Empress did before cannot make them feel real fear. What they fear is only the power that the Empress possesses. As long as they feel true fear, they will naturally be respectful to the Empress. This is the heart of the human heart. They dare to dislike it because they are not afraid enough."
