Seeing the true emotion in his eyes, Chu Xuanchen nodded.
It seems that Jiang Ning, like the one he investigated, is a good official who will be sympathetic to the people.
He raised his eyebrows and said: "In the past ten years since Emperor Hongyuan came to the throne, under his rule, the national strength of Chu State has gradually weakened, and historical disasters have continued. Take this natural disaster as an example, the people have already suffered so much, but he only thinks about alchemy Pleasure, extravagance and extravagance; the officials in the court only know how to form cliques for personal gain and intrigue. They don't care about the hardships of the people at all. The emperor only cares about killing the old ministers who are loyal to the first emperor; Seeing the actions of these people, the king was really furious. I don't want my Chu family's hard-earned foundation to be ruined, so I came to see you!"
"My lord, please calm down. These subordinate officials know about it. But the subordinate is only a ninth-rank sesame official, and can't control anything. Please forgive me for being incompetent!" Jiang Ning said with trepidation.
At the same time, his body was shaking, and his heart was in great pain.
Chu Xuanchen said: "I know the situation of your lord, and I didn't want to disturb you, but the situation is critical now. Our country of Chu not only has internal troubles, but also foreign troubles. In the north, there is the Tiansheng Kingdom, and in the east, there is the Donglin Kingdom. There are Xianbei, Beimo, Nanman, Xiyi and other tribes staring at us greedily. They have been harassing our people on the border all year round, burning, killing and looting. My king recently received news that the barbarians of Tiansheng Kingdom actually massacred A village on the border of our country. But the emperor has been hiding it from everyone, allowing the villagers to be slaughtered and the village looted. He is afraid that the king will lead the army to fight, which will strengthen the strength of the king, so he deliberately conceals it. When the king thinks I am very angry about this matter. How can Emperor Hongyuan protect his family and country by acting like this?"
This news was received not long ago.
That's why he decided to come to Jiang Ning, trying to win him over and consolidate his strength.
Emperor Hongyuan repeatedly sent people to assassinate him, and the queen poisoned him and Ruoyue many times.
If he doesn't act again, what awaits him will be the end of his wife being separated and his family ruined.
When Jiang Ning heard this, his face immediately became angry.
But he still said fearfully, "My lord, please calm down. The emperor may be afraid that raising troops to fight will waste the country's power and cause the people to suffer. In addition, the flood has not been eliminated. Maybe he doesn't want to cause more troubles, so he forbears it for the time being."
Chu Xuanchen snorted softly, "My lord, do you believe what you said?"
"This" Jiang Ning was taken aback, obviously, he didn't believe that either.
Chu Xuanchen raised his eyes, full of majesty and arrogance. He has the charm of a superior person, which makes people want to surrender.
He said: "The emperor's move is simply to care about internal strife and disregard the life and death of the people. As the first emperor's son and the prince of a country, it is really heartbreaking to see the state of Chu become like this. This time, the king traveled all the way from the imperial city. I have seen too much suffering. Officials along the road exploit the common people, running rampant in the countryside, embezzling disaster relief funds like Mrs. Wei, and treating the common people like worthless people are everywhere, but no one dares to take care of them, because they are all part of the emperor's party. This king wants to change this situation, want the world to be peaceful, want to resist foreign enemies, and restore the country's prestige!"
If it was in the past, he wanted to avenge his parents, so he wanted to seize the world.
Now, he is for the common people.
He said earlier that if Emperor Hongyuan could make the state of Chu peaceful and peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, he could let go of this hatred. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
