Great Leaving the Night's Watch

Chapter 152 The King of Chu Eats Pickles, The Dog Eats Ribs
I read the novel "The Deer and Cauldron" before, and there is a saying in it that the emperor has to worry about this and that, half of his hair is gray at the age of 16, and he is not as comfortable as ordinary people.

Now Shi Bin deeply feels the incomparable correctness of this sentence.

Especially the emperor who is on the cusp of the last days.

too difficult.

Knowing that the aristocratic family is disgusting, you still dare not touch him!
They control almost everyone who has a voice.

Once they unite to incite public opinion, they will easily make you the enemy of the whole world!

Shi Bin didn't even have the slightest basis for ruling. Under such a turbulent situation, some people wanted to surrender to the enemy and continue to be his rich man.

Few people are willing to live a hard life with Shi Bin's government-in-exile.

Everything is super sensitive right now!
Shi Bin remembered the famous saying in "The Godfather" for more than ten years:

Don't threaten others lightly. Once it doesn't work, no one will be afraid of you anymore.

He glanced at Xiao Fei, then at Chen Feng, and finally made a quick decision:
"The Fudo family!"

Except for the night watchman who can't get in touch with the top of society, can't understand, and can't figure out the stakes in it, everyone else has a mirror in their hearts.

If the aristocratic family is moved, it will have no effect.

Then lose your face first.

If they were killed directly, that would give them enough reasons to surrender to foreign enemies.

The current situation can be described as precarious, and it can affect the whole body.

It's like playing Go, the most difficult piece of chess, let's put it aside for now!

If you don't move the family, then you have to start with the royal family.

This matter is actually sensitive.

You succeed the throne as an adopted son, and move the Lu family?
When people touch their lips, public opinion can scold you to death.

I can't take care of it.

Shi Bin personally led [-] soldiers and horses, together with Xiao Fei, Chen Feng and others, went to meet King Lu Ze of Chu.

He is the younger brother of the old emperor.

I live in the best part of Jiangzhou, with [-] mu of land.

When his brother was in trouble, he didn't care like a normal person.

Refugees were fleeing to the south of the Yangtze River, and food prices soared. He took out all his savings in advance, hoarded food to death, and prepared to throw it out when the price of food rose to the highest point.

The common people have been eaten by Yi Zi who was harmed by these profiteers and dignitaries.

When Shi Bin saw him, the king was gnawing on a piece of pickle, without cutting it, just gnawing on it.

There is also a bun.

Although the clothes on his body are silk and satin, the food he eats is the most inferior food.

Before Shi Bin could speak, Lu Ze said with a dark face: "Master Tianzun, if you don't hurry up and become emperor, what are you doing here?"

In his tone, he couldn't hear any concern for the people, or any heartache for the suffering of the Lu clan.

In this situation, Shi Bin fully understood the meaning of being alone.

At first, I thought that the big man used these four characters to express his humility.

In fact, he is not self-effacing, because the person sitting in that seat is so lonely!

No one is really on your side except yourself.

Everyone only cares about their own interests.

They don't care about the life and death of the common people, let alone the torrential flood.

They will never sympathize with ordinary people.

Although there are no thousands of ordinary people, there will be no one to support these powerful people to live a luxurious life.

As the group of people who profit from frying grain, they never want the price of grain to drop.

They only despise the poor who cannot afford food.

No one in this group of dignitaries would be willing to sacrifice their own interests to give the people of the world a way to survive.

What does it have to do with my royal family that people at the bottom of society can't survive?
When the sky falls, the emperor will hold it up!What's the matter with my prince?

Even if some of them are really aware of the problem, it will not be able to shake the behavior of the entire interest class or change their decision-making.

The night watchman told these people about the grain requisition before, and repeatedly broke it up and told them that the common people are the foundation of Lu's nobles' ruling power.

They're all farting.

Whoever loves to die dies, at worst, grandpa surrenders to the enemy country and still lives a prosperous life.

Their principle is to procrastinate as long as they can, and they will never allow their own interests to be sacrificed.

As soon as Shi Bin was about to sigh, Lu Ze immediately blocked his mouth: "The Lu family even gave you the emperor's seat! What else do you want? During the war years, this king has been so mixed up that he eats corn bread and pickles, raising this family It's not easy being a son, if you think I'm worth a lot, just sell me!"

He picked up a cup of tea and took a sip: "You say you are breaking the sky, and I have no food! Since you are the emperor, how to find a way out for the people is your business, so don't bother me with such a stupid thing." Yes. Even though you are an emperor, you must know that this king is your uncle! The minimum respect for the elderly is still there, don’t let people say you are uneducated!"

It's really insufferable.

But you still have nothing to do with him.

But now there are more and more refugees coming across the south of the Yangtze River, at least 300 boats a day.

Yimen Chen's food supply and that of the prefect's mansion have been exhausted.

Many people still starve to death every day.

The tragedy of white-haired people sending black-haired people happens every day.

The aristocratic family and the royal family watched the mourners everywhere and remained indifferent.

"Stop leaning on it, hurry up and go, do what you should do, you are going to be the emperor."

Lu Ze didn't directly say whether it's cool or stay there.

More or less, it still saved some face for Shi Bin.

The servants in the mansion also showed contempt for Shi Bin.

Their mouths kept moving, but they didn't dare to speak casually.

If it is convenient to speak, I will definitely tell Shi Bin, get out of here.

But I really can't go.

Knowing that it is useless to say it, I have to say it.

And people are sure that you dare not touch him, because he is an elder.

I can use a shelf to crush you.

If it's really the emperor in a peaceful and prosperous age, it's too late to curry favor with you.

An emperor who was used as cannon fodder by the old emperor, an emperor who attracted the enemy's firepower, there is no need to bird you.

The little princes of the old emperor have already gone to a safe mountain or forest to be robbers.

As long as Shi Bin attracts enough firepower from the enemy, Lu's descendants will never be in the enemy's sight.

Shi Binming knew it was useless to beg, but he still had to beg him:

"His Royal Highness, no matter how urgent it is, you have to set an example..."

"Don't you understand human language?" Lu Ze pointed at Shi Bin with his crutch angrily, "If you want food, you will die! If you have any kind, come and kill me!"

This is directly tearing the face.

If Shi Bin dares to persist, he will lose his moral foundation.

The nephew made the uncle very angry, and spread the word to make people laugh.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Lu Ze's pet dog ran over with a large piece of delicious pork ribs in its mouth, and came to have fun in front of the owner.

The anger in Shi Bin's heart filled up instantly.

He said coldly: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu is really strict in governing the family! The King of Chu himself eats pickles, and the dog eats pork ribs!"

Lu Ze saw that he had been knocked out by the other party, so he just showed his old face, got angry, and said angrily: "I won't give it to you, what's the matter!"

After finishing speaking, he kicked his favorite puppy five meters away, and cursed uncleanly:
"Fuck you! You don't care about the occasion, you can't be a human being, and you can't be a dog either?"

A master of insinuations.

"Move!" Shi Bin yelled at his subordinates: "Empty all the food in Lu Ze's house! Anyone who dares to stop him, I will kill him with the golden mace passed down by the late emperor!"

Shi Bin asked for the golden mace, which was shining brightly in the sunlight.

No one dared to try it out.

The King of Chu beat his chest and stamped his feet, watching his grain depot being smashed open and thousands of bags of grain being transported out, he cursed hysterically, "You bastards who kill a thousand knives!"

"I, Dali, rule the country with filial piety. I dare to be so disrespectful to my uncle before I ascend the throne! It's against you!"

"You bastard, you're just the son of the moth of our Lu family, a cannon fodder to block arrows!"

"You're nothing! What's your air?"

……

Shi Bin waited for him to scold enough, and responded: "I'm just a person with a conscience, I want to do something for the people! Unlike His Royal Highness, the 1.1-meter noodles are all given by the people, but he is full all day long, and he refuses to do something for the people. Thing! Shameful and hateful!"

His voice was like the sound of gold and jade falling back in the courtyard for a long time, and the reverberation echoed around the beams.

All the other people in Chu Palace lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.
