Li Chun naturally wouldn't let that ranger cut off his arm, but let him go, and said that if he really wanted to protect that Cheng Fuduan, let him go to Wei Renshi's house, and then let the ranger leave.

After the ranger left, Li Chun asked, "Brother Renshi, how did you know about that person, and do you really want to protect him?" ”

Wei Renshi nodded and said, "I've also heard of this opera. This year, there was a great drought in Guanzhong, and the people had no harvest, so Jing Zhaoyin did not think of reducing taxes for the people, but instead levied and collected them violently. What is even more hateful is that he took advantage of His Majesty's trust in him to deceive His Majesty by saying, 'Although there is a drought this year, the seedlings are very beautiful'. Now that the summer tax has been levied, Prince Chun has been in Chang'an for a long time, so he doesn't know. In Weinan alone, I don't know how many people sell their houses and land, and sell their sons and daughters to raise tax money. ”

"What?!" Li Chun was taken aback: "This ......"

"If Lord Chun doesn't believe it, you can go to the field and take a look yourself, and you will know at a glance." Wei Renshi said again.

"Then why didn't anyone play for ......" Li Chun stopped, he himself knew why no one had written to explain the matter.

"It's not something you can control right now." Wei Renshi saw Li Chun's face gloomy, and said to him: "What you can do now is only to protect the people who dare to speak the truth for the people." But one day, you'll have the power to make it happen again. Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, Lord Chun, I hope you can always remember this sentence. ”

Li Chun sighed and said, "Brother Renshi, you said that this people are so poor right now, the court has raised so many officials and courtiers, do they have no eyes and ears?" Are they not even as good as a play?! Li Shi is such a big lie, and no one has pointed it out? ”

Wei Renshi smiled and said, "Lord Chun, if you didn't happen to meet such a warm-hearted ranger today, would you know that just around the capital, the people would actually be forced to demolish their houses and sell their land?" ”

Li Chun was stunned.

But I heard Wei Renshi say again: "The system is something that serves some people after all." To serve some people, you have to lose some of the interests of other people. Those who have vested interests, because of their vested interests, where do they still have the heart to care about the interests of others? Or, in order to protect their vested interests, they would rather be blind and deliberately see that they are not visible. ”

But there must always be someone to say a few words for the benefit of the people. Prince Chun, whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world. What is the will of the people? To put it bluntly, the people's will is the people's prayer and the people's interests. When the interests of the people are protected, the people support you. As long as all the people in the world support you, you will be invincible. What is more help for the righteous and less help for the unjust? This Tao is profit. If you can represent the interests of the majority, then the majority will support you, and if you exploit the interests of the majority, the majority will oppose you. It's that simple. Only when the imperial court guarantees the interests of the strata and also takes into account the interests of the majority of the people and the majority of the people, can the imperial court win the trust of the people and be supported and protected by the people. Li Tang can be eternal and prosperous! ”

Li Chun nodded, but did not make a sound.

As Wei Renshi said, he can't control anything at the moment.

Someday, though, he will be able to influence these things.

Li Chun's heart suddenly gave birth to a fighting spirit.

Wei Renshi noticed the change in Li Chun, smiled, and said to him: "But there is still time, the people are the easiest to be satisfied, as long as they don't starve to death, even if there is still a way to live, they will not think of resisting." If you look at the time since ancient times, it has not been a juncture when the common people have been forced to have no way to live, when have the common people ever revolted? SLR people's riots, that is not going to survive. At present, Datang is far from that extent, so you still have time. ”

"Will Brother Renshi help me?" Li Chun asked seriously.

Wei Renshi smiled and nodded: "I still want you to be my big backer, so I can be a big man who runs rampant on the streets." It's been my lifelong dream. So will definitely help you. ”

Li Chun nodded, and said, "Brother Renshi, I want to go to Weinan to have a look." ”

"Okay, I'll accompany you." Wei Renshi said: "Not only Weinan, but also these places around Chang'an, Weinan, Jingyang, Lantian ...... You can check it out. Hundreds of people say that thousands of people spread it, it is better to see it with your own eyes. ”

The two said that they would leave, and they would not go to Xishi, so they immediately turned around and went back to Wei Renshi's house, and let them drive a carriage to carry the two to Weinan.

"Second brother dog, don't take the cement road." Wei Renshi said.

Li Chun looked at Wei Renshi, but did not make a sound.

The carriage quickly drove out of Chang'an City and walked onto the official road under the drive of Dog Er.

"Lord Chun, look." Wei Renshi looked out the window and said.

Li Chun hurriedly leaned over and looked at the road outside the carriage.

I saw that the road was full of hungry people fleeing the famine and begging for food, walking aimlessly on the road like walking corpses. The world is so big, but it seems that there is no way to live for them. So they walked along the road in a daze, not knowing where they could stop.

Li Chun's brows furrowed.

The carriage traveled along the road, and the homeless people on the road were not cut off.

"There is a big drought in Guanzhong this year, and these are displaced people who have no harvest." Wei Renshi said: "Last winter, there were only a few light snowfalls, and until now, there are only a few scattered raindrops. In such a drought, the natural grain yield is very low, or there is no harvest. But the taxes are not reduced, and they still have to be paid. The people originally thought that with such a severe drought this year, the imperial court would definitely take care of them, not to mention opening warehouses to release grain to help the people, at least they could temporarily exempt the summer tax. But what they were waiting for was an order to pay taxes as usual. If they failed to pay the taxes, they would be arrested, prisoners, and punished as forced labor, but they had no choice but to sell the houses and fields they had, but they could not make up the money, so they had to leave their homes, flee and wander everywhere, and become homeless. ”

The carriage walked all the way, and there were not only displaced people on the road, but also corpses starving to death on the side of the road, lying on the side of the road, rotting in the scorching heat.

Li Chun's face became even more ugly, and his eyes were also full of anger.

Wei Renshi looked at Li Chun. He is still young, he is still enthusiastic, he has ambitions, he often talks about Taizong's entrepreneurship, Xuanzong's reasoning, he often wants to emulate Taizong and Xuanzong, and revitalize the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chun will become emperor in the future, which is a historical inevitability. If you can guide Li Chun to observe the people's feelings and love the people now, after he ascends the throne, it will only be beneficial to the world.

The scrawny and poorly clothed homeless people on the road have never been cut off, and people starving to death on the roadside have also continued to appear. Li Chun gritted his teeth and looked out.

Suddenly, the carriage came to a halt.

The two of them only heard a chaos in front of them, and were about to take a look, but they heard Gou Er say outside: "Xiaolang, the hungry people are fighting in front, you still don't want to look at it." ”
