Chapter two hundred and forty second life for the people
"What about the young master? The young master lives for himself?"
Liao Wang asked unwillingly.
"Of course, I have been traveling around the world these years. I have visited almost every inch of land in this world. Even though my city lord's mansion was raided and executed, I never showed up because I still have unfinished things in my heart."
said the old man.
"Now that the young master has appeared, has he fulfilled his wish?"
"Yes, we have taken the road that we should take, and we have done what we should do. If there is any regret, it is that I still owe the Holy Father an apology."
The old man said slowly: "If I had not exchanged identities with the Holy One that day, everything might have been different. Therefore, I came back."
"Young master, have you met Mei'er?"
"I've seen it before."
"Then please tell me, sir, where she is!"
Zhu Wang's aura suddenly became fierce. Although he was about to die, the imperial power and murderous intent in his body were not something that ordinary people could withstand.
To his surprise, the old man reacted very calmly, but his face turned a little pale. He shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, you are impatient again. I said that as long as your Majesty understands your true intention, you can find Su Mei."
Son, if I had said that, the Holy One would never have time to live for himself again in this life."
The old man left and forgot to stand there for a long time without saying a word.
For a moment, he wanted to kill the other party and force him to find out Su Meier's whereabouts, just like he had killed several of his sons.
But he endured it. The young master's words were like a wake-up call, and a glimmer of hope rose in his heart. He had one more chance to live for himself. This was the only and last time.
Liao Wang sat down on the grave, thinking about past experiences in his mind.
He has been looking for Su Meier, and in order to mobilize manpower to search, he constantly pursues power. Now he is the master of thousands of people, but he still has not found her.
The young master said that he had been following what others said, so he would go further and further off track. What if he didn't believe what others said?
What if he started living for himself from the beginning with the old lady in the brothel?
That day, he wanted to force his way into the brothel and rescue Su Meier, but the old lady said that Su Meier had been sold to a powerful person in the capital, so he turned around and left.
Forgetting to get up, he felt the need to go to the brothel, which was the beginning of a series of events.
The brothel is still there, but the old lady is already very old. When she saw Wang, she looked so excited that she almost couldn't hold her breath.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty!"
She naturally knew that the scholar wearing tiger-striped boots was the current Holy Emperor. Because of this, she was even more grateful for her wit and intelligence back then. However, she did not expect that when she stepped into the coffin with one foot, she would actually be called to the door.
"I want to ask you, where was Su Meier back then?"
Liao Wang stared at the old woman and asked word for word.
"I...don't remember..."
The timid old woman had to be visited by the emperor himself. This feeling was so terrifying.
"If you don't tell me, I will kill everyone in the brothel. No one in this brothel, whether it's a guest or a singer, will survive. In addition, I will kill all nine of your clans in the future and dig up their graves, so that your ancestors will never have peace."
!”
Liao Wang's face was cold and his tone was cold. The old woman was completely frightened. She didn't understand why the other party suddenly understood after decades.
"I said, I said, Su Meier died decades ago."
The old lady said.
When Zai Wang came to the brothel for the first time that day, Su Meier had already committed suicide by hanging herself from the beam because she couldn't bear the insult.
But the old lady was a good person, and she could tell at a glance that Wang was extraordinary. She knew that the other party was not easy to mess with, so in order to avoid causing trouble, she deliberately poured dirty water on the powerful people in the capital.
After she forgot to leave, she immediately sent people to find the most beautiful woman in the brothel, changed her name to Su Meier, and sold her to an eighth-grade official in the capital.
From then on, Liao Wang followed this clue and pursued it all the way, and her brothel calmed down.
"Where is she now?"
Liao Wang acted very calmly and asked calmly.
"Buried in a mass grave, no monument erected."
The old woman's voice became weaker and weaker, and her confidence was seriously lacking.
Mass graves were a place where the bodies of dead slaves were dumped. Those who died here could only turn into lonely ghosts, without even the right to be reincarnated and start a new life.
Liao Wang turned around and left. After leaving the brothel, he ran all the way. When he arrived at the mass grave, his face was already filled with tears.
Looking at the wasteland in front of him and the exposed stumps and broken arms, he dug like crazy, rummaging through corpses one after another.
Men, women, old people, children, pigs, horses, cattle and sheep are all here.
In fact, he knew that after being buried here for decades, the other party would definitely turn into a white skeleton and there would be no possibility of meeting him again, but he just wanted to dig it out. Only in this way could he numb himself and gain a moment of peace.
His hands were bleeding, but he didn't dare to stop.
"I see, this is what people say. It's really scary. Hahaha!"
Forgetting the madness, he knelt down among the corpses and laughed.
"Sir, I understand, I understand everything. It's not that I don't live for myself, but I have never thought about it seriously. In my life, I have been decisive in killing, but I almost always believe what others say.
"
"All actions are based on other people's words. If I had not gullibly believed in the old lady and rushed into the brothel, would things have been different?"
"In the whole world, I am the charming one. I think I am living my true self. In fact, I am the puppet being led. My mother is the one who pulls the strings, so are the eighth-rank officials, the prime minister, and my prince. Everyone in the world is
Too."
"Only I am being arranged all the time!"
"Young Master is right, after decades, I should live for myself once!"
The sky was overcast and the rain was pouring.
Forgetting to get up, he took off his clothes and accepted the wash of the rain calmly.
He called Wang. He was not a young master, nor an emperor, he was just a book boy. His old sweetheart Su Meier was forced to death by a brothel, and more women were forced to die tragically in invisible corners. He needed to do something.
A few days later, the world was in shock.
The emperor wrote an imperial edict that all brothels in the world should be wiped out, and the women in the brothels should be good and assigned jobs. All people in the world are protected by the king's law, everyone is equal, and they are not allowed to infringe or harm others at will.
Violators will be punished by criminal law.
As soon as this decree came out, the powerful were frightened and the people cheered. This paper edict resolved the tense relationship between the upper and lower classes.
Even if the powerful hold great power, they can no longer oppress the people.
Forgetting to sit on the throne, he felt relieved. It didn't matter who he was born in the world and who he lived for. What mattered was that he lived with ideas and his own thinking, and was not a walking corpse.
Looking at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he smiled and said: "From now on, establish a heart for the world, establish a destiny for the people, create peace for all generations, and live for the people!"
