C115 Luohuangyan (2/2)
”Thank you for yesterday.”
It was a pity that she couldn't make an expression. Otherwise, she would definitely repay him with her most beautiful smile.
”It's alright. I've done a good deed since I was able to help your grandpa and achieve his wish.” Shangguan Wan smiled. Originally, she had tried her best to restrain her smile, but after interacting with her, it seemed like she didn't care that much. Her tolerance and magnanimity had infected this foxy girl.
”The emperor is a good man, you have to cherish him.” It was because of the Emperor's love for Yun Luo that he was able to persevere.
Although she was young, she had been deeply moved by Nangong Yu's love for her. She had even imagined that if she had a man like this to protect her in the future, she would have no other requests in her life.
But unfortunately, nothing was possible now, and no one would be able to marry a wife that had lost her emotions.
After breakfast was ready, Nangong Yu and Shangguan Wan ate a few simple bites. When they saw their Grandfather was in deep sleep, they couldn't bear to wake him up.
After which, it was the husband and wife pair who said their goodbyes. After all, there was still a long way to go.
On the narrow path, while riding a horse, they could also talk quite well at the same time.
”Ai, if we're both humans, then why is the difference in status so huge? ”You are the emperor, whereas they are merely commoners in the mountains. What they use to eat is practically like the difference between the heaven and the earth.” There was no one around, so she could only sigh.
Nangong Yu smiled, his eyes were filled with the beautiful scenery of the mountains. Before coming here, he didn't think it was that beautiful, but now, he actually discovered that it was exceptionally beautiful.
”People are born equal and live only in this world. If everyone continues to be equal, then the bad guys who do bad things will not be punished, because no one has the right to punish them. Thus, in order to maintain order in this world, someone has to carry out the punishment function. As for me, I am the person at the very top of the list, the rest are no different from them. ”
Although Nangong Yu's words were a bit strange, the truth was still there.
Yun Luo smiled, ”But you still didn't answer me, why are your food and clothing so much better than them?”
The emperor lived in a palace and had three thousand beauties in the imperial harem. Although this point hadn't been reflected in Nangong Yu, but everything that he had enjoyed was far beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Without hesitation, Nangong Yu replied, ”Power and wealth are compatible. If you want me to tell you everything, I can't explain it. Perhaps, those corrupt officials and those who want to climb up can answer you.”
What a clever answer. He threw the question directly at someone else.
Yun Luo nodded, ”That's true. The more power a ruler has, the more benefits he will receive. This seems to be a type of law, no one doubts it.”
”But you only saw one side. What about the other?”
”On the other side?” Yun Luo was a little lost.
”It is not illogical to say that there is no coldness in high places. Ordinary citizens have died many times in their lives. However, how many people in the royal family who hold high positions can die naturally?” Nangong Yu's words caused her to be speechless.
The imperial palace and imperial court were filled with swindlers and swindlers. They were easily filled with greed, and such greed would definitely harm the interests of others. Was it for the sake of preserving one's own interests? What does it usually do? Of course it was to kill him.
The ancestors had long since proved this point, Jing Ke assassinating the Duke of Qin, which was a righteousness without fear of sacrifice, but also a true manifestation of his rebellious spirit.
