Chapter 821: Confide
He is a king, and when he gave an order, the palace forbidden army would hesitate, and immediately someone stepped forward and began to move the stone statue.
I thought that it would be the same as before, but soon, with the joint efforts of everyone, the stone statue was slowly moved, accompanied by a 'click' sound.
When everyone saw this, they were all shocked and their eyes widened.
Zhang Ruiqing even pointed to the stone statue and shouted again and again: "King, moved, moved......"
Lu Chen didn't speak, and after the stone statue was removed from its original position, Liang Xiao also walked over in three or two steps and began to investigate, and then arched his hand towards Lu Chen and said, "King, there are traces of broken stones on this, and the bottom of the stone statue should have been stuck before." ”
His explanation was reasonable, Lu Chen also nodded when he heard this, but the official before said in a trembling voice: "King, you questioned before, this is the manifestation of the Xuannu Niangniang." ”
"Nonsense!" Lu Chen glared at him and reprimanded: "How can there be ghosts and gods in this world!" ”
His scolding made the officials startled, and they suddenly shrank their necks.
Lu Chen said again: "But being born in heaven and earth, it is also appropriate to have a trace of awe for heaven and earth." ”
"Yes, yes, the king taught me." Officials replied one after another.
At this time, some palace guards began to ask: "King, what to do with this stone statue?" ”
Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "Move out first, don't damage it." ”
"No!" The Forbidden Army responded, and then combined the efforts of several people, and began to move the stone statue out of the temple.
Seeing this, the official also came to Lu Chen's side, and said cautiously: "O king, Weichen suggested that another Xuannu temple be built by this river, after all, this temple has been here for a long time, and the local people are also used to coming here to burn incense." ”
Regarding his proposal, Lu Chen nodded directly and said, "Yes, do it immediately." ”
Subsequently, under Lu Chen's order, the palace forbidden army personally dispatched and began to demolish the temple.
With so many forbidden troops moving up and down, it didn't take long for this place to be razed to the ground.
The onlookers outside were still talking, and after a while, the soldiers of the city captain's mansion began to wave the horsewhips in their hands and shouted: "What are you doing here!?" I don't want to be paid, do I? ”
With his vigorous drinking, the people dispersed in a hurry, and went down to the construction site one after another, and began to pick up tools and dig canals.
The construction began to proceed as scheduled, and the scene soon became in full swing, and many people took off their shirts and began to work shirtless, shouting everywhere......
Lu Chen clearly ordered that the government was forbidden to whip the people, but the scolding was inevitable, and he didn't say much about it, but after staying for a while, he went to inspect elsewhere.
Accompanied by the head of Leizhou County, after looking around for a whole day, Lu Chen also returned to the county mansion to stay.
That night, he had that strange dream again.
"The Human Emperor ......"
"The Human Emperor ......"
It's that ethereal female voice again.
The voice was very soft, revealing an ethereal spirit, but Lu Chen woke up again.
He sat on the edge of the bed for a moment, then put on his coat and opened the door.
"The King." Liang Xiao at the door immediately bowed and saluted.
"Yes." Lu Chen answered and asked casually, "What about the Nine Heavens Xuannu Statue?" ”
"According to the king's orders, he has been carried into a house and placed for the time being." Liang smiled back.
"Let's go, let's take a look." Lu Chen raised his head slightly, and then walked out of the courtyard.
The two of them left the county hall, and after a short time, they had already arrived at the place where the stone statue was placed, and in order to prevent the stone statue from being deliberately destroyed, there were also two guards at the door.
"The King." Seeing Lu Chen, the two immediately knelt on one knee.
Lu Chen waved his hand to signal him to get up, and then pushed the door open.
The stone statue of the Xuannu was placed directly above the hall, and after Lu Chen ordered someone to light the lamp, he also smiled at Liang and said, "You can also step down." ”
"No." Liang smiled in response, then exited the room, and took the door for Lu Chen.
In the hall, Lu Chen was the only one left, he first looked up at the stone statue, then shook his head, and asked, "What do you mean?" Kindness? ”
As he spoke, he also took a few steps forward, sat down against the stone statue, and continued: "This king knows, you must say that this king is a monarch, but he ignores the people's livelihood and suffering, labors and loses money, and builds a lot of construction, but this king tells you that it is precisely because this king saw the suffering of the people in Yandi that he built this water conservancy ......."
A stone statue, how could it be possible to answer his question, it was not so much that Lu Chen came here because of that strange dream, but that he wanted to find a place to talk.
He is the king of a country, and he has no friends to talk about many troubles, so he can only hide them in his heart.
"You say, can this temple not be demolished? If it is not demolished, how can the canal be built? If the construction period is delayed, and at the beginning of spring in the next year, the counties of Yandi have not yet been connected to water conservancy, how can the 10,000 acres of fertile land be irrigated......
He said to himself.
"This king has had two strange dreams one after another, but if you want to say that you have something to do with it, but this king doesn't believe it, but I can't sleep anyway, so I'll talk to you."
As he spoke, he continued: "As for you, who are high up and receive incense, how can you know the bitterness of this king's heart. ”
"Who doesn't want to sing and dance, I also want to hug my three or five beautiful wives and concubines, don't ask about the world, and live a happy life like a fairy, but is this possible? Kindness? There is no peace in the world, there will be wars at any time, how can the people have a good life? ”
"When it comes to war, there are soldiers killed, countless soldiers, blood spilled on the battlefield, this king is said to be a tyrant by everyone in the world, but the Central Plains has not yet been unified, and the earlier the realization of the unification of the world, isn't it the earlier to achieve peace?"
"Yandi, this king can't ignore it......"
He kept talking to himself, chattering endlessly, talking and talking, he also closed his eyelids slightly, and gradually fell asleep against the stone statue.
In such an environment, Lu Chen seemed to sleep peacefully, and it was not until the next day that the sky was white, and he stood up and moved his muscles and bones, and at the same time stretched his waist.
Seeing that his royal robe had fallen to the ground because of the action just now, he bent down to pick it up, patted the dust, and also draped it on his body and opened the door.
Seeing the king come out, Liang Xiao hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Lu Chen looked at the sky, rubbed his eyes and said, "Hmm...... I didn't expect to fall asleep, and it was dawn. ”
Liang smiled and said: "Wei Chen saw that the king was sleeping fairly well last night, so he didn't dare to disturb. ”
"Well, let's go back to the county mansion and wash up." Lu Chen said, also looked at Liang and smiled, and said, "You haven't rested for the past two days, right?" ”
"It is an honor for Wechen to be by the king's side." Liang said with a smile.
"Okay, after you go back to the county government, you can go down and have a good rest."
"The King's ......"
Lu Chen said unhappily: "This is an order!" ”
