Chapter 367: The human heart is complicated
Shen Yueshan also did not have Gu Zhao's righteousness, and repaid the king with death, even if he would still be justified in the end.
He knew very well that he had to live, so that his sons and daughters could always be glamorous, and those brothers who were born and died with him could always be loved, standing tall between heaven and earth.
"Gu Gong turned out to be a ......" Bu Shulin couldn't believe it, she always thought that the demise of the Gu family was just the victory or defeat of the game between the monarch and the minister.
I didn't expect it to be so complicated at all!
"The human heart is inherently complicated." Shen Xihe smiled faintly.
"Mrs. Gu ...... Yi. Bu Shulin couldn't find an adjective to describe Gu Zhao.
If she is a common person, she must be grateful, after all, the two tigers are fighting, and the people who are injured are innocent people who cannot control their own destiny.
But if she is a descendant of a family, she will definitely scold Gu Zhaomei and scold Gu Zhao as a traitor.
"Ah Lin, do you know that if he doesn't take this move, there will be no Xue's whole body retreat today, and there will be no more Cui Clan's scenery, if he takes the family to go all out, he will definitely lose both, and ...... then."
At that time, more people will die, and the people of the Gu family may not be able to be saved, and in the midst of their struggle, the foreign tribes that have just been pacified will wait for the opportunity to move, and how many families will be shattered if internal and external troubles arise again?
Gu Zhao understands that he does not have a heavy desire for power in his heart, because of the debauchery of the first emperor, he saw the broken mountains and rivers when he was a child, and he was full of devastation when he was a teenager, he was born noble, and was supported by the people, he just wanted to do his best to do something for the world.
From the eighth year of Youning to the nineteenth year of Youning, he has been overwhelmed by His Majesty for eleven years, how much His Majesty hated him back then, and now it is estimated that he will hate him even more, but His Majesty should also miss him.
"My dad said you can't read too many books, because too much will hurt your brain." Bu Shulin had palpitations, she admired people like Gu Zhao, but she didn't want her father to become such a person, she didn't want to be sacrificed for no reason, "It's really a pity for a peerless beauty like Princess Xin, you haven't seen it, you don't know, how dazzling she is......"
Coughing lightly, Bu Shulin said again: "But in my heart, Yo You is the most dazzling." Princess Xin is like a living dead...... Phew, I shouldn't be disrespectful to the dead. But I really feel that her life is like an empty eye, not proud, but ...... It's that there is no half-affection in the world, and now that she thinks about it, she is such a wise person, she is afraid that she will see Gu Gong's plan early, so she will ......"
Thinking like this, Bu Shulin actually felt a little guilty in his heart, in previous years, they had not talked much about the girls in Beijing behind their backs, and before Gu Qingyi and Xie Yunhuai divorced, they were quite sympathetic to Xie Yunhuai for having such a fiancée who seemed to be guilty of being alive.
Later, Xie Yunhuai withdrew from the marriage, Gu Qingyu married Xiao Changqing, they sympathized with the poor Xiao Changqing, but it was not fulfilled, Xiao Changqing became more and more irritable and gloomy after marriage, but after losing his wife, he regained his pre-marriage calmness.
Only then did she understand that if she was born in a family like Gu Qingyi, and understood her father's plan so early, she was only afraid that she would either go crazy or die early, how could she be like Gu Qingyu without sorrow or joy, live indifferently, and sit and wait for death?
"It's not that your dad doesn't read much, it's that he's in a different position." Shen Xihe shook his head lightly, "Duke Gu just understands that the era of imperial power is coming, and the family should withdraw from this political arena that they have played with for thousands of years.
Gu Gong spent more than ten years to verify that His Majesty is a king who loves the people and works hard, and he chose to take a step back, which is also the righteousness of the monarch and the minister. ”
"But the result? The family was not grateful to him, but thought that he was useless, and could not let them hold the power of the king as in the previous dynasty. Bu Shulin was not so righteous and awe-inspiring, she couldn't agree with Gu Zhao's approach, her pattern didn't allow it, "What about Your Majesty?" If you don't believe that the princess is dying, will Your Majesty take advantage of the situation to rehabilitate the Gu family?
No, His Majesty understands his sacrifice and will not let go easily. He will let go, because he still has a little conscience, and this conscience is still moved by the ladder handed by the princess's mother and son with their lives.
What about the people? The people didn't know anything, and the court said that Gu Gong was a rebellious minister, and they thought that he was a rebellious minister. The court is rehabilitated, and they don't know it painlessly, will they remember that they are now living and working in peace and contentment, and there is his sacrifice?
As for the history books......"
Bu Shulin sneered, without saying much, pinning his hopes on the history books is even more ridiculous, and the history books are written by the winners.
"Alin, everyone wants differently. Like you, we are selfish people. We prefer to fight until the last moment, even if we die, we must die clearly. "Shen Xi and Guan Er.
As for the innocent people involved in this battle, she can only apologize, the situation is like this, she can promise not to take the initiative to take advantage of the pit, but she can't sacrifice her own life and that of her loved ones in order not to implicate them.
She didn't comment on Gu Zhao, she didn't have that kind of character, so she was not qualified to judge.
"Yes, that's how it should be!" Bu Shulin likes Shen Xihe because of this, they have to fight for themselves to the end of their lives, "This world is obviously Your Majesty's world, there must be one side to back down, why can't it be Your Majesty?" ”
Why should they back down, what did they do wrong? Is it wrong to kill the enemy bravely and stabilize the world when the court is in turmoil? Is it wrong that after they have rewarded their merits and deeds, they are considerate of the people, seek benefits for the people of the land under their jurisdiction, and gain the love of the people?
There's nothing wrong with them, and there's no reason why they shouldn't fight for themselves.
The two coincided, looked at each other and smiled, Hongyu walked over and said in a low voice: "County Lord, Xue Gong is here." ”
Xue Heng has been closed since he resigned, and now the people of the Xue family resigned because Xue Heng wanted to protect Xue Li, while admiring Xue Heng's righteousness, he hated Xue Li for not being angry, and stared at Xue Li with full firepower, Xue Li's life was worse than death.
"Your Highness persuades me to do something for Neiko, I want to go to the northwest first, and also take the seventh lady to the northwest to adapt to it, does the county lord have anything to take me to the northwest?" Xue Heng came to the door for this.
The first is to explain his itinerary, the second is to say goodbye, and the third is to bring things for Shen Xihe.
Shen Xihe has his own guards, and everything is for the guards to be sent to the northwest with the dart bureau, but Xue Heng is so attentive that Shen Xihe still handed over to Xue Heng what was ready and had not yet been sent.
"When you get to the northwest, remember to write to me, and I will send you a gift." Shen Xihe saw that Xue Jinqiao was unhappy, and remembered his previous agreement with her.
Xue Jinqiao was immediately happy.
Shen Xihe told again: "Help me take care of my brother." ”
I hope they will be able to exchange hearts and minds as soon as possible.
