Chapter Seventy-Five: Lord Song is angry
Song very much disagreed with Tianling's idea.
The matter of Mishan has not yet been resolved, and the fundraising is held now, which cannot ensure the safety of the merchants of the two places.
"I fully understand your concerns, and I would never have dared to do this before the secret fold was sent." Tianling smiled, "But it's different now, after Your Majesty received your secret fold, in the area from the capital to Jiangshan, there are still people who dare to come out to be demons?" ”
"We sent such a big surprise to Your Majesty, and asked him to send the merchants in the capital to Qingshui Town by the way, how could he not agree to such a small request?" Tianling sighed, in the evil old society, the emperor is the most unscrupulous boss in the world! These are obviously the emperor's own affairs, and in the end, letting him do a favor is like a great gift.
"Is this what you want in your letter?" Song looked at Tianling incredulously, "Escort merchant, you still have such a broad mind?" ”
"If the sage is good, he will help the world, and if he is poor, he will be good alone." Tianling's small waist pole straightened, "The construction of the official road benefits the country and the people, although the businessmen are here for profit, but they are also really contributing money and efforts, and my father-in-law will drag them in, so naturally they will not suffer." ”
Song sneered, "Joke, when have you ever seen the common people take advantage of the officials?" ”
"Nope." Tianling shook his head with a serious expression, "It's impossible." ”
"That's right, if you look at the counties in each state, the magistrates call the state and county orders, what is the meaning? Who to shepherd? Shepherd! Whom? Or the people! Song looked at Tianling, "This official knows what you think, and he also knows that you are pure, but there are some things, just know it in your heart, don't say it." ”
"I don't think so, Lord Song." Tianling looked at Song Ke with a firm gaze, "Just like now, I don't think it's right, but if I don't say it, others don't say it, and no one stands up to question it, then this sentence will always be considered right." But what if, for thousands of years, what is itself wrong? ”
"You don't want to die!" Song glared at Tianling fiercely, "Isn't it good to be alive?" I'm going to die! Even if it's wrong, it's not your turn to criticize! ”
"Remember who you are! You're just a little father-in-law in the inner court! Song said goodbye and walked away.
Why did you suddenly get so angry? It was the first time for Tianling to see Song, but he was so angry and a little overwhelmed.
If it was something that shouldn't be said, but Tianling said it before, but Song never did this.
In the next few days, everything went smoothly, after the emperor in the capital received the secret fold, he immediately sent people over, thinking that the case of Mishan rolling stones smashed people was overturned, and surrounded Mishan tightly, and the hematite mine on Mishan, Tianling and Song did not ask again, and the officers and soldiers who surrounded Mishan tacitly.
The bodies of the young villagers at the foot of the mountain were dug up from the blown holes, but the bodies were so unrecognizable that even their families could not recognize who was who.
In the end, the government made the decision, dug a big pit at the foot of the dense mountain, buried them all together, thirty-seven corpses, erected a tablet, and wrote forty-three names.
According to Ruan Dan's complaint, six villagers who resisted were stoned to death by those people, and Tianling felt that although these six people could no longer find their bones, they also hoped that their souls would have a place to return, so they added six names to the tablet.
The inscription was written by the heavenly spirits:
Come to the spirit,
Calm the soul.
The long river is the pharynx,
Castle Peak as evidence;
Is it silent?
The river and the mountain are named.
······
Some people are so small that their names won't even be remembered, but what does it matter? The land that gave birth to him, no matter what he looked like, whether he was alive or dead, would accept him with open arms, how could it be nameless? Mountains and rivers are my body.
Ruan Dan couldn't understand what was written, but he was grateful for Tianling's act of personally inventing the monument for the villagers, but Song could understand it, but he stood far away and watched, without saying a word······
The businessmen in the capital who came to participate in the fundraising meeting were also escorted to Qingshui Town by the Jinggi Wei intact, and the businessmen on the side of Jiangshan were personally brought by Tianling to pick them up, giving them a sense of face and security.
The businessmen of the two places met in Qingshui Town, and the long-delayed fundraising meeting finally kicked off.
Everything went smoothly, but I don't know why, after the emperor took over Mishan, he did not show the willingness to track down the people behind the scenes, and after burying the young and strong villagers at the foot of Mishan, there was no longer any action, and what was even more surprising was that the families of those villagers who moved away that year, none of them had any dissatisfaction with this, they actually thought that the government would bury the corpses and put them back to erect a monument, which was a great gift to them.
Tianling squatted next to a clay jar in the courtyard of the Qingshui Town Mansion, looking at the little goldfish swimming in the clay jar, he was stunned, thinking that the villagers at the foot of Mishan were killed in their families, and the court didn't even catch the murderer, just burying the corpse, they looked grateful to Dade, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, he seemed to know why Lord Song brushed his sleeves away that day.
Heaven and Earth Monarch is the deep-rooted belief of the people here, and what Tianling said to Song that day was tantamount to taking down the statue of Song that was carefully enshrined on the altar and falling to the ground.
Maybe sometimes what is right is not what the world needs.
People are only willing to believe what they want to believe, a group of people are willing to believe and live it, which may be needed by the world, but is it necessarily right to be needed?
But what is right? And who will define it?
Tianling frowned, he was a human being in two lives, from a relatively equal and free civilization suddenly to a society where the class was harsh and could not talk about human rights, and he tried to adapt to the rules of this world in order to survive.
But as he adapted, he found that he wanted to break down these barriers and rebuild more than adapt.
But when he took his first tentative step, he found that it was not the makers of these rules and barriers who first gave him hostility, but those who were oppressed by these barriers and did not know it, or those who knew but did not want to believe it.
Those people use the barriers that seal them as an umbrella, no matter how unfair they are treated, they can tolerate it, and even they don't think it is unfair, but an honor, an honor, an honor.
Hardships and difficulties are not terrible, but ignorance and ignorance are terrible.
Tianling exhaled deeply, it's okay, don't worry, take it one step at a time.
If it doesn't work in one day, use it for a month, if it doesn't work in one month, then for a year, if it doesn't work for a year, then for a lifetime······
It's not easy to change a finished drawing, but it's much easier to paint what you want on a blank piece of paper.
