Chapter 150
Liu Yu smiled lightly. "Is that so? Then you are so ambitious!" Before he finished speaking, a golden light shot out from his sleeve, piercing Li Jingzhong's face.
Even Li Jingzhong caught this sudden attack off guard, and his always deep eyes rarely showed a look of shock.
However, when the golden light was more than two feet away from Li Jingzhong, a line of robe sleeves blocked its front. With a light robe sleeve, the golden light was like a dead branch that hit the wind head-on, and rolled backwards.
The 6-feathered ape relaxed his arms, opened his five fingers and held the golden light into his palm. The gilded pen with his palm trembled for a long time before stopping its trembling in a tight grip of the 6-feathered one.
"Your Highness, you haven't killed me once, do you want to try the second time? Why don't you try it a few more times? Anyway, we are not in a hurry!" Li Jingzhong's name was very polite, but there was a lot of ridicule in his tone, as if he was ridiculing 6 Yu's overestimating ability.
And 6 Yu calmly put away the golden pen and said without changing his face: "Of course I know I can't kill you, I just want to ejaculate!"
Li Jingzhong stared at 6 Yu for a long time, then smiled sinisterly and said, "Your Highness is really different from the past! I can't even see whether you are telling the truth or the lies."
"Then let's talk about it." Liu Yu's voice also became gloomy: "I want to ask a question that I am most puzzled first. You want to control the world under the banner of my father. You can choose one of my father's sons in Chang'an. Why bother to find me with great difficulty?"
"Your Highness, good question!" Li Jingzhong gave a thumbs up. "So what we want is not simply to control the world. If this is the case, a group of seniors would not be on our side."
6 Yu nodded: "That's right! This is the second thing that I can't understand. With the martial arts of a senior, you want money? You want fame? You want something that is not easy to capture? I really can't think of anything you can give him that he can't get!"
"Okay!" Li Jingzhong smiled: "It seems that we can answer your highness two questions with just one explanation! Seniors, is this explanation for me or you?"
"Let me say it." Yi Ran stepped forward and came to the front of Liu Yu. Cheng Yuanzhen's face immediately showed a look of alert, and Liu Yu's expression was still calm at the time, but he quietly shifted his eyes from Li Jingzhong's face to Yi Ran's body.
The heads of the line were still chaotic, but it seemed that they had been cleaned recently and there was no strong odor. He was wearing a white monk's robe in his body, which was not luxurious but was quite neat. It was much better than the sloppy appearance he had when he met Liu Yu last time.
"Your Highness thinks what the world is like now?" The group put their hands behind their backs and asked Liu Yu first.
Six Yu was stunned. He never expected that the other party would ask him such a question. He could not think of any connection with what he was puzzled. Moreover, he realized that he had never thought about this problem before. And when he tried to think, a thousand thoughts appeared in his mind, and he didn't know where to start.
"I, I think it's okay? There is no shortage of food and clothing, and there are so many fun things!" After a long silence, Liu Yu squeezed out this sentence.
The party smiled, his smile full of helplessness. "Your Highness, you are talking about yourself. But not all the people can have the luck of you!"
As he said that, the party restrained his smile and his expression became particularly serious. "The world today has completely become the world of aristocratic families and nobles! Officials and businessmen colluded to oppress the good, and the people were entrusted with others and had almost no money. Such a world is not as hungry as it is everywhere? For example, the forced land rent collection that Your Highness saw not long ago had already spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, from the Northern Desert to the South China Sea, everywhere!"
"Then let's see each one to clean up!" Liu Yu remembered the previous experiences of the same group and was immediately filled with righteous indignation.
The party showed that helpless smile again, as if facing an ignorant child.
"Your Highness, there are already thousands of such things. Don't talk about you alone, even if there are ten or hundreds of you, how can you care about it?"
"Then, what should I do?" 6 Yu was a little confused.
"The key to this problem is that the nobles are far stronger than the people's power. Only by eliminating this difference can this problem be fundamentally solved."
"But, those who are in high positions should have a high position and a high position! Otherwise, where is the so-called high position?" 6 Yu asked in confusion.
"No, Your Highness, this is not contradictory." The party shook his head: "If only one person is in a high position, then no matter how greedy he is, the exploitation of the people will be limited. What is terrible is that once someone reaches the peak of power, his relatives and friends will benefit accordingly. The so-called "one person is enlightened, and the chicken and dog are ascending to heaven" is like this. And those relatives and friends who benefit will often lead a group of people again, and those people will continue to repeat this behavior... In this cycle, one aristocratic family will weave a net covering the entire Tang Dynasty. It is this net that never stops sucking the people, making them increasingly poor, increasingly poor, and never see the day when they will stand out!"
"Then is there any way to break this net?"
"Your Highness asked the point." The party nodded in praise, but as before, he still gave 6 Yu a question: "Does your Highness know why Emperor Xuan can revive the Han Dynasty?"
Liu Yu nodded, but shook his head again: "I know that Emperor Xuan of Han has some similarities with his life experience. But I don't know how he revived the Han Dynasty. Could it be that he was not in charge of the rule and loved the people and worked hard to govern?"
"Emperor Xuan revived by weakening the nobles!" said one by one.
"When Emperor Xuan ascended to the top, he was just a puppet in Huo Guang's hands. It was not until Huo Guang's death that Emperor Xuan truly began to take power. Out of fear of the Huo family, Emperor Xuan vigorously suppressed many nobles who regarded the Huo family, confiscated their land, and distributed it to the poor people who had no land to cultivate. Emperor Xuan's actions were probably to consolidate the rule and win over the hearts of the people, but it really reduced the aristocrats' exploits on the people. Therefore, he could achieve the great cause of revival!"
Liu Yu nodded in a daze, then his eyes flashed: "So, are you planning to follow Emperor Xuan of Han and weaken the nobles?"
The group laughed loudly, and the laughter was full of arrogance and indifference: "How can we just imitate our predecessors? We must do more thoroughly! Reform and redeem people but not tribes. Let this world have nobles but no nobles, and everyone can improve their status through their own efforts. This is the world we want!"
As if summoned by a line of words, the strong wind whistled from behind him and hit Six Phoenix head-on. The two of them danced and their clothes fluttered.
Standing in the strong wind, the expression on Liu Yu's face was first confused, then shocked, and then slowly returned to calm.
The strong wind dissipated, and 6 feathers sighed quietly and said with emotion: "This is probably the so-called 'Datong' world?"
The line smiled slightly, not saying anything.
The two of them were silent at the same time. 6 Yu was thinking, and the team was waiting.
But Li Jingzhong, who was standing by, was a little anxious. He stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Highness, now you know, why did we choose you? Because if you want to weaken the nobles, you need an emperor with a clean background. Your brothers were born in Kyoto and had more or less contact with the noble families. Only you have nothing to do with those noble families. So only you can achieve this great cause!"
"Stop saying beautiful words!" Liu Yu replied coldly: "It is because I have nothing to do with the court, so it is easier for you to control it?"
"Your Highness, can't you be kind to me?" Li Jingzhong looked helpless.
6 Yu snorted: "I can't be kind to someone like you! No one is a fool. Since you can send someone here within two quarters of an hour today, you must have known when I was attacked here before? I kept calling me Your Highness, and I almost died at that time, why didn't you come to save me?"
"Your Highness, you know the situation that day. That's why Ah Weng and the Eastern Palace combined to kill you! If you offend these two forces at the same time, I'm afraid I don't even know how to die! The ambition of changing the world is important, but saving your life is even more important! Do you think so? Your Highness!" Li Jingzhong was very calm, with no guilt on his face.
6 Yu waved his hand: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense to you! Now that I have arrived in Chang'an, you should take me to see my master and adoptive father, right?"
Li Jingzhong nodded slightly: "Your Highness is exhausted all the way, so let me rest with you today! Tomorrow, the villain will let Your Highness meet Master Zhiji. However, Mr. Li is not in the capital now, so if you want to see him, you may have to wait a few days."
"You..." Liu Yu's eyes widened, as if he was about to curse immediately. But he calmed down and said calmly: "Okay! In this way, even if I rescued him after seeing the master, you still have the adoptive father as a hostage. This is really a waste of water!"
His tone was plain, but his eyes were as gloomy as the black clouds that were storm before the storm.
"Thank you for your praise!" Li Jingzhong was unmoved: "Then your highness, please please!" As he said that, he made a "please" gesture towards 6 Yu.
Six Yu glanced at him with a black cloud-like gaze, then swayed his sleeves and walked down the top of the tower. Behind him, the group followed with their hands and backs.
Only Cheng Yuanzhen and Li Jingzhong were left on the top of the tower. The two looked at each other without saying a word. Cheng Yuanzhen had no expression on his face, and Li Jingzhong smiled, like two masks.
"You are the one who tricked you from this castle-like 'Datong' in the air?" After a long silence, the expressionless mask spoke.
"Yes! Otherwise, how could he be willing to help me do things?" The smiling mask smiled even stronger.
"Is his madness true or false?"
"Of course it's true! If he wasn't a lunatic, how could he have such fantasies?"
"You'd better be careful and don't burn yourself!" As he said that, Cheng Yuanzhen's mask cracked a crack, revealing a trace of concern, but then he quickly closed and returned to his original indifference.
"Warning you! Don't think about harming Your Highness! Otherwise I will definitely kill you!" After saying that, Cheng Yuanzhen also turned around and walked down the tower.
"How could I hurt Your Highness? He is my most important piece!" Li Jingzhong still smiled, but his smile gradually faded.
"You'd better be careful, don't die in front of me, you are a weak and good man!"
Looking at the empty stairs, Li Jingzhong said softly.
