Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4213 (Four Thousand Two Hundred and Thirteen) Cruel

In fact, this person who went to Yue Kuangfan for advice was not the first time to hear of such a thing.

In the Tiecang Court, people of low status like the ones Yue Kuangfan mentioned were sometimes punished or even killed, and were easily accused of some untrue crime by people of high status. The people of low status he mentioned were generally those with relatively little power in the Tiecang Court, while the people of high status were those with relatively great power.

Other people with relatively less power were not actually unaware of the existence of such things in the Tiecang Court, and they had also heard of people with relatively less power being punished or killed based on fabricated reasons. After all, the fights between those with relatively greater power would sometimes lead to other relatively powerful people deliberately revealing the truth about a relatively powerful person's wrongful act against others.

In a place called Tiecang Tingli, only a small part of the truth about the relatively powerful people who have wronged others is revealed. The people who reveal these truths are often relatively powerful people, and the revelations are often not for fairness and justice, but to fight against other relatively powerful people.

However, in Tiecangting, even if some relatively insignificant people knew the little truth that was revealed, they were sometimes unwilling to believe it, and would rather believe that the relatively insignificant person who was wrongly accused was punished or even killed because he did something wrong. This is because relatively insignificant people need a sense of security to survive in a place like Tiecangting.

In fact, places like Tiecangting are places where people with relatively more power can easily wrongly accuse people with relatively less power, and where people with relatively less power can be punished or even killed regardless of whether they have done anything wrong. If some people with relatively less power believe this truth, they will lose most of their sense of security and live in panic all day long. The fear and anxiety that surrounds them like a tide will make them unable to live because they cannot bear it.

In fact, not believing in those cruel truths is not entirely the active choice of those people. It is also a choice made by their own mentality adjustment mechanism as human beings in order to adapt to the environment and survive. When people with relatively little power do not believe those cruel truths, they will have a little sense of security. They will not directly think that no matter what they do, they may be wronged, punished or even killed at any time. When some people with relatively little power choose not to believe those cruel truths, they will think that as long as they live carefully and do not anger those with relatively great power, those with relatively great power will not cause trouble to them casually. They would rather believe that "it takes two to tango" and that all those who have been wronged and have relatively little power must have their own faults. In this way, as long as they do not make mistakes like them, they will not be found by such "bad luck". In a place like Tiecangting, this is the inner need of people with relatively little power in a helpless environment. In order to survive, to make themselves feel a little safe, and to live a difficult life, they have to do this. If they were not in an environment like Tiecangting, they would not necessarily think so.
