177 Family affection is used to self-judge and ask for forgiveness
"You're not kidding me." Ox bolt pillar to the king road.
"Of course not. I understood that my uncle was right, my father wanted to kill my uncle on the day of my uncle's accession to the throne, because I overheard him and his subordinates Jihua told my uncle in advance, and my uncle could have killed my father first, but he didn't do that, he kept thinking about brotherhood, but my father Zuihou still betrayed the forest country and brought a hundred years of disaster to the whole country. The kingdom shook its head as he spoke.
"And how did you get to the throne?" Niu Zhuzhu asked curiously.
"It was also arranged by my uncle, and after my father's treason, I thought I would be dead, but my uncle did not blame me, and entrusted me with the important task of protecting nature and controlling desertification. I have never seen my uncle so haode king, he did almost everything himself, under his vigorous governance the desertification of the forest country has been improved little by little, but his own body is exhausted, in order to promote the protection of the forest he has never married a wife, after ascending the throne has not had time to think about these issues, what I never expected is that when he was seriously ill, he would order the throne to be passed to me, and the son of a traitor. "The king raised his head in remembrance of his uncle, who in his heart was his idol and an example for him to follow.
"So that's the case, the old king is really a rare great Ming monarch, a hundred times more virtuous than all the Ming monarchs I know." Niu Shuzhu also exclaimed.
"Yes, if the forest country had not been divided, my uncle would have become the most haode king in history, but unfortunately ......," the king said quietly.
"Father......" The princess put her hand around the king's arm.
"I'm fine." The king gently patted the back of the princess's hand and continued, "It's just that my uncle is too merciful, and he has repeatedly tolerated my father, and everyone in the forest country can only get one meal of food a day in the most difficult time, and the desert country can't even eat at all, but in that case, my uncle actually secretly sent me to send food to the desert country, you must know that those grains were saved by him cutting the rations of the royal family." ”
"Didn't that move your father?" Niu Zhuzhu always feels that people's hearts are long in flesh, how can they have no feelings, let alone brothers of flesh and blood.
The king smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Not only was he not moved, but he deceived me and my uncle. At that time, I secretly sent food three times, the first time my grandmother's father asked me to take him into the forest country but I sternly refused, the second time I persuaded him to go back to the forest country and told him that his uncle never blamed him, but he didn't say a word just desperately ate the food I sent, and the third time I didn't have any hope, he suddenly said like a different person that he had figured it out, knew that he was wrong, and was ready to lead the desert country to surrender to the forest country. ”
Fake! Niu Zhuzhu and the fairy pets spoke in unison in their hearts.
"I was too young to see the deception, and I was so excited that I threw myself into his arms. After that, he told me that some people in the desert country had begun to starve to death, and he felt sorry for the people of the desert country and he needed more food, and he promised that as long as there was enough food to distribute to the people of the desert country, he would be able to go back to the forest castle with me and face to face my uncle, and I easily believed it. ”
"After that, I conveyed my father's promise to my uncle, and my uncle took out all the food kept by the forest country without the slightest suspicion, and asked me to take all the food to save the subjects of the desert country, and my uncle said that those are also the people of the forest country, and he does not allow the people of the forest country to starve to death, and he has the responsibility and obligation to ensure that the people do not starve to death while governing the yellow sand, and that is already his bottom line."
"So, I took the food of the forest country and my uncle's sincerity on the road, but when I handed over the food to my father, he repented, and refused to return to the forest country with me, and later even drove me out, at that time I really wanted to die, he felt that my uncle must think that I and my father conspired to deceive him, he would never believe me again, and I became a sinner in the forest country, and the most stupid and sinful sinner in the history of the forest country, For I have delivered into the hands of the enemy with my own hands the grain of the forest country, which is more precious than gold. The king said with remorse.
Niu Xuanzhu's heart was also helpless, good people are always used by bad people to do some bad things, this is the most depressing thing for good people, and it is also the most hateful place for bad people, if it weren't for the other party is the king's father, he would have scolded him a long time ago.
The king continued: "I don't know how I got back to the castle of the forest, I really wished I could die on the road, so that I would not have to face my uncle's disappointed and hated eyes, I knew that I had to go back, someone had to come out and take care of it, and I even thought that my father would make a big fuss about it, and if the people of the forest country knew that their king had given the only food in the country to the desert country, then the forest country would have to be in turmoil, and I would have to die at that time." ”
Niu Zhuzhu is also worried, such a big thing really can't be explained, and the people are irrational when they are hungry.
"What I didn't expect was that my uncle was not excited and angry after listening to what I had said, I felt as if he had expected and prepared for it, and he asked me to go down and rest, and he would take care of the rest. My mind was blank at that time, so I went back to my place of residence, not wanting to see anyone or eat anything, just the feeling of begging for death and waiting for death. But two days later, something happened that shocked the whole country. ”
"Has the Desert Nation come in?" Niu Zhuzhu said nervously.
"It's not the Desert Country that has come in, it's the King of the Forest Country who has people tie himself up and put a trial on himself in the largest square in the Forest Country!"
"Oh my God!" Niu Bolt exclaimed.
"Yes, my uncle took all his sins upon him, and he had him beaten with a hundred lashes, and then he walked around the city on his knees three times, from noon till late at night, and the next day again with a hundred lashes, and three times on his knees, until on the third day he could not get up at all, and he had him tied to a pillar and continue to be tortured. It was only at this time that the people's invective and incomprehension finally turned into sympathy, and when the uncle crawled through the streets to the second circle, the people spontaneously put food in front of him, and there was a stretcher, and the uncle finally won the people's forgiveness, and the people of the forest country not only did not riot but became more united, but his body could no longer hold on. ”
Now, even the ox bolt pillar began to admire the old king very much: "If only I had come earlier, maybe the old king would not have died." ”
Niu Xuanzhu thought that the water of the Lake of Our Lady and the fairy fruit in the miracle must be able to save the old king's life, so the Haode people should not have died so early.
"Thank you for having this heart, telling you so much, in fact, I have something to ask of you, for all the people of the Forest Country." The king looked into the eyes of the bullbolt and said.
