Chapter 129: A Brief Encounter in a Small Town
Chapter 129: A short time together in a small town
"When I take the position, I will definitely change the living environment of Xia Picheng. ”
The old man Lu Bo smiled and said nothing, he vaguely remembered in his mind that Yuan Benchu also said the same thing back then. However, as a courtier, he naturally would not say these words, and then said inexplicably: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince, whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world." ”
Yuan Hai's footsteps suddenly paused, the words of the old man Lu Bo seemed to be meaningful, Yuan Hai didn't know what the old city lord wanted to express.
Could it be that he should give up the struggle for the throne and concentrate on the people's livelihood? This is absolutely impossible, in Yuan Hai's thoughts, he seized power just to have power and control the world.
In this world, there are more people who want to be kings, and the more people who want to be kings, the more they can't tolerate others competing with him to be kings.
Yuan Hai and Yuan Yang are no exception, the two were originally brothers, but for the sake of the so-called royal power, they ignored blood and family affection, and even did not hesitate to kill each other.
That's what Old Man Lu Bo said. If even the royal family's own people can't tolerate their own people, then the people of the world will still have a healthy life?
The best example is the danger of Lishan City this time, if it was placed in peacetime, Yuan Benchu would definitely send troops immediately without thinking, and would not ask the opinion of any minister.
This is not only about the lives of the three princes of the royal family, but also about the survival of the family and country.
I'm afraid that Yuan Benchu never thought about how disappointed the people would be when he knew about this matter, he thought about it for a long time, and when the news of the other two princes fighting over this matter reached the ears of the whole world.
Soon, the sky darkened, and Yuan Hai was invited by the old city lord of Lu Bo to live in the city lord's mansion for one night, and the other soldiers did not dare to go to the people's homes because of Yuan Hai's order, so they could only sleep on the streets.
Yuan Hai planned to stay in this small city for a few days. Xiapi City is only a few days away from Lishan City, and Yuan Hai's army is marching fast, so he is not in a hurry in this day or two.
In the past two days, Yuan Hai couldn't sleep all night, and always felt that the royal family owed this small city, so he led the soldiers and generals to take brooms early in the morning to help the people clean the streets, and also gave silk, excess grain and grass that would not be used in the army for a while to those lonely old people and left-behind children.
Two days later, when the army was about to leave, the old city lord of Lu Bo came over with hundreds of old and weak women and children to see Yuan Hai.
Yuan Hai was still a little excited when he knew about it, thinking that he had done some small things for the people in the past two days, maybe in the hearts of the people in the small city, how could he have a little bit of a good feeling, right?
However, at a glance, except for the old city lord Lu Bo who still had a smile on his face, the rest of the township neighbors all had cold looks, and they looked at Yuan Hai's expression, not at all like looking at a prince, but a stranger.
The old city lord of Lu Bo also felt that the scene was a little embarrassing, so he walked over with a helpless smile and said: "Hehe, Your Royal Highness Prince, I told the neighbors yesterday about His Highness's idea of doing things for Xiapi, but everyone said that they were used to the current life, so they had to come over to tell His Highness about this, and His Highness should put his mind on other small towns." ”
Yuan Hai thought that he had misheard, and froze for a moment, he couldn't understand why the people should be happy with his kindness, right?
"But this ......"
The old city lord of Lu Bo interrupted with a smile: "Your Highness, in fact, the big guys also understand what your Highness means, but the big guys are used to the current life, they can cultivate the land by themselves, and they can also feed themselves, if there is excess food, everyone will also share it together, and help each other, although the days are hard, but they are also comfortable and happy." ”
"There is no other city here that is drunk and intrigued, but if His Highness were to do that, the only good thing about this small city would probably cease to exist. Hehe, Your Highness, I said the day before yesterday that only by winning the hearts of the people can we win the world. ”
Yuan Hai's mind was about to turn, he had read the books of sages and sages, of course he had heard and seen this sentence, so he was also famous in Golden Dragon City for showing compassion and love for the people, but the same approach, why didn't it work in Picheng here?
He was puzzled, but he had already taken Old Man Lu Bo's words to heart. Old man Lu Bo seemed to have a pretty good impression of Yuan Hai, and before leaving, he hugged his hand and said, "I wish His Highness to get what he wants as soon as possible, and I also hope that His Highness can not forget his original intention." ”
Yuan Hai stepped onto the chariot, still thinking hard, he was already very unable to figure it out, but when he heard the last sentence of the old man Lu Bo, he suddenly suppressed a lot of questions in his heart.
What is your original intention?
He was confused, shook his head, didn't plan to think about it, the most important thing at this time was the war not far ahead, his third brother was still in Lishan City, struggling to hold on.
At this moment, a general galloping on a horse came galloping. "Your Highness, Lishan City is indeed surrounded by a large army, and the last general predicts that the enemy has at least 900,000 men and horses, including a pure white robed army, about 300 people, presumably it is a magician army, and the strength is generally around the second level, and the strongest is only the fifth level. However, there is also good news, that is, in the entire army, there are only two relatively powerful breaths, which should be the strong warrior king. ”
Yuan Hai asked with an incredulous expression, "There are only two martial kings in the army of 900,000? It's really pitiful, but three hundred magicians are very tricky, when did the Junhua Kingdom have such a powerful magician army? This is already the standard configuration of the upper country, right?"
He said with a straight face: "Pass the order, all the soldiers should not be underestimated, although we have more people than the other party, but after all, we don't have the help of magicians, and we are afraid that we will suffer if we really fight." ”
"By the way, call dozens of strong men, lurk outside Lishan City, and fire eleven cloud-piercing arrows. ”
The soldier understood and fired eleven cloud-piercing arrows, which was the signal of the highest military order of the Xijin Dynasty, signaling the three princes in Lishan City to lead their army to join them inside and outside and launch an attack.
"Yes, I'll do it!"
......
Just when the war in Lishan City had begun, the martial arts tournament in Golden Dragon City was also about to be held.
Zhou Zhen is also out of the customs at this moment.
