Chapter 1,884 There is a way to deceive the emperor
As soon as I left the house, the sky outside was as dark as ink, and the wind and rain were as dark as darkness.
Large raindrops were as big as beans, randomly hitting the face, shoulders, and neck, making the coir raindrops sink.
Su Ziji raised his eyes and saw hazy mist in front of his eyes.
"Lord, let's go quickly!"
Wen Xunpeng walked through the mud and hurried along the mountain road, his tone anxious.
His face was covered with water, and he couldn't tell whether it was sweat or rain.
"Are you scared?"
Su Ziji looked in front of him.
Only a hundred or two hundred paces away, the crowd was pushing the armored soldiers.
"Come in! Beat corrupt officials to death!"
The shouting gradually became more orderly and chaotic, and even the soldiers were pushing and shoving.
"Come in!"
"Kill corrupt officials!"
"Justice!"
One after another, the slogans became more and more uniform as the crowd fanned them intentionally or unintentionally.
"Lord!" Wen Xunpeng said with a deep tone: "I don't regret my death. Let alone these rioters, they are just soldiers with swords and axes, so what should I fear?"
"However, I have heard that a son with a lot of money cannot sit down in the hall, let alone you are the king of ten thousand chariots, and you have the power of the world!"
He solemnly handed over his hands: "Lord, please leave quickly! You can't hesitate any longer! Otherwise things may change!"
"The King of Ten Thousand Vehicles..."
Su Ziji silently recited this word, with a smile on his face that seemed both insightful and sarcastic.
"Actually, Zhang Dai does his best for these ordinary people... Some of these people have benefited from him."
"It is true that Zhang Dai is a lot of incompetent, unable to get things done, and even doing bad things. In the overall situation, it is a great harm to the people... But only we know that, the small people do not know, and the great harm has not been done after all...
"
"The little man has been... fanned and come here to chop off his head."
Although it was a bit predictable, but he clearly heard it, Wen Xunpeng suddenly raised his head, widened his eyes, and looked at Su Ziji.
The rain hit the grass and trees, and the cool wind and rain invaded the texture, making him shiver involuntarily.
"This this……"
For a moment, he was speechless.
I just have an inexplicable feeling, a kind of sadness and anger filling my chest.
He lowered his head and gritted his teeth and replied: "My lord, the common people are despicable in nature and the most ungrateful... This has been seen many times since ancient times!"
Su Ziji nodded, although this is Wen Xunpeng's extreme statement, it is indeed fact, history and true knowledge.
Historically, when people who were kind to the people encountered disaster, as long as they had a choice, the people never stood up to help them.
What they like most is that "the law does not punish the public". Just like the people in front of them, do they really think they don't understand anything?
I don’t know if someone is fanning?
But taking the opportunity to smash, smash, kill and buy for zero yuan is their wish.
Then after killing them, hand over the "leader" to die for them.
This is the case in the Tomb of Five People, and it is also the case today.
"Master said, a gentleman's glory can be killed in five generations... But even if it is a blessing that has poured out the sky and created the world, it will be forgotten in the second generation, and he will be confident in the third generation."
"The common people never show any kindness, they only care about the immediate benefits...it's good to bully someone, but it's not good to obey them!"
"Although the small benefits are not universal and the people cannot obey, my lord has to think deeply!"
"You must not be like Zhang Dai and become a scholar of the common people."
Su Ziji suddenly turned his eyes, nothing else. This "it's right to bully someone, but it's wrong to obey them" is really thought-provoking.
There were two Han Dynasties in Qing history. After the Western Han Dynasty was destroyed, the Eastern Han Dynasty succeeded... In fact, the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty was called Emperor Guangwu, and it was said that he was the political leader of the feudal dynasty.
To seize the world is to seize it politically, not to seize it militarily.
He was also the most humane emperor, always trying to live up to his people, ministers, friends, and women.
But according to Qingshi's life records, he was the most bullied.
Common people bully him, women bully him, old friends bully him, friends bully him, officials bully him... wherever you look, it's everywhere.
Why?
Because he is a righteous king, he not only pays attention to the (real) overall situation, but also pays attention to human relationships and friendship. Therefore, a gentleman deceives him in his right way, and his subjects deceive him because of his bright benevolence. He deceives his king in a righteous way - a wise king and a benevolent king can actually be deceived!
To put it radically, only a wise and tyrannical king can be deceived by no one and no one dares to deceive him!
But this is just a villain's opinion.
Level 18 politics made him understand.
Spring is warm and flowers are blooming. Even if there is a cold spring, snow and hail, everything is moving towards spring.
Similarly, in late autumn and mid-winter, even if there is clear weather, the sun will shine brightly, but the days will eventually wither.
The same is true for a country's temperament. What determines it is a truth that cannot be explained externally, but the hearts of hundreds of millions of people are also part of it.
This is the way of kings.
Wen Xunpeng didn't know what he was thinking and solemnly bowed down.
"Lord, this is how I saw you."
"Only the common people can bully and dare to bully a wise king..."
"You can deceive someone who has the Way, but don't deceive someone who has no Way! From this point of view, the emperors of the past dynasties can have the Way, but they cannot just have the Way."
Su Ziji just smiled at his words.
"What you say may make some sense, but it's a pity that Gu Xian is not the King of Ten Thousand Vehicles yet."
Su Ziji's tone was dull and his eyes looked into the distance.
"There is still one more level to pass."
"beat!"
In the distance, a soldier was pushed to the ground, and his sword was taken away from him. An unknown hand pushed the sword and stabbed it in.
The soldier looked down and suddenly fell backward.
Bright red blood, mixed with mud and water, spread all over the mountain road in an instant.
The crowd was silent for a moment.
Wu Wu, who was mixed in the crowd, also widened his eyes and looked at the handle of the knife in his hand.
Blood stains were falling along the blade.
My mind went pale.
I snatched the official knife...killed the official...I'm done...I'm done...
Even Wen Xunpeng was shocked and his lips trembled.
"Lord...this is a serious matter..."
Like a gunpowder keg being detonated, the armored soldier's sharp blade was already moving forward.
The crowd seemed to have been poured cold water on them. Some people gradually woke up and wanted to run away.
"Hahaha, you dog officials are going to kill us all!"
"You will die if you go back! I will fight with you!"
Suddenly, a person "angry" came forward and rushed to grab the knife. During the fight, the righteous man still shouted: "Everyone, hurry up! Don't let the corrupt officials escape!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!" Seeing this, Baihu finally became furious and slashed with his sword.
Su Zijihe looked down from a high position and saw the light of swords and blood. The soldiers no longer had any scruples and immediately killed dozens of people. However, the people behind seemed to rush forward deliberately, forcing the civilians in front to rush forward.
Kill kill kill
"Ah" the armored soldier was trampled, dozens of feet stepped on him, and there was no sympathy at all.
The remaining armored soldiers did not hesitate to kill them with all their might.
But thousands of people had to charge, and under the surging tide, it was suddenly difficult to maintain.
Seeing this, the people who were among them shouted angrily: "Commissioner Wu, if you don't come up quickly, if you retreat now, your whole family will die!"
"If you do something, the great master can still intercede for you!"
Wu Wei’s heart felt cold!
"intercede?"
Then who on earth forced me to come here?
He wanted to scream, but he didn't dare.
Why...does this happen...
The tears mixed with the rain gradually turned his eyes into a lake.
He cried and laughed and rushed forward.
The armored soldiers, who numbered only thirty or forty, had been scattered, and blood was flying everywhere where the swords were shining.
Surrounded by a group of "righteous men", Wu Committee broke through the blockade and stumbled forward.
