Chapter 1011 Sowing discord
The people are ignorant, but when their lives are threatened, no matter how stupid they are, they know what to do to protect themselves.
"If there really is an elixir of life, how did the emperor of the previous dynasty die?"
"The founding emperor of our dynasty listed the elixir of life as a banned drug. Why would Your Majesty violate his ban?"
"The old emperor doesn't treat us as human beings. If we don't resist, won't he eat us in our sleep?"
"We are human beings, not food. Why does the old emperor treat us like this?"
They kept calling each other "old emperor" and "food". After hearing this, Lin Jing concluded that these people had ulterior motives.
They hide among ordinary people, waiting for an opportunity to strike, and sow discord anytime and anywhere.
Lin Jing was so angry that he was about to ascend to heaven and be born again. All kinds of words of defense were swirling in his throat, but he couldn't utter them.
It was because he knew very well what the emperor and his wife were doing in private, and he could not lie to the people against his conscience.
Under pressure, Lin Jing could only say: "Your Majesty is the ruler of the world. He will never use his own people to make an elixir of immortality."
"The emperor is indeed the ruler of the world, but he does not have the heart of a ruler. If we do not fight with all our might, we will only be thrown into the pot and boiled by him."
As soon as Lin Jing finished speaking, the people who were hiding among the ordinary people and making trouble immediately refuted him, and then continued to incite the people to break out of the siege and escape from Luoyang City.
"Fellow villagers, the old emperor has gone mad. We have to find a way to escape from Luoyang City, otherwise we will be killed by the old emperor."
When the rumor that the emperor used human flesh and blood to refine the Phoenix Gu came out, the people were skeptical at first. After all, he was the emperor supported by the people of the world.
No matter how old and confused he is, he cannot treat the people who provide for him as food.
However, as the story progressed, and given that many soldiers had been entering and leaving Luoyang City since yesterday, the people who were unwilling to believe the story could not help but feel a sense of crisis.
They sent the young man out to inquire about the news. Although the young man only brought back rumors that seemed to be true, he only had one life.
No matter how much they were reluctant to believe that the emperor was senile and confused, they had to believe it in order to stay alive and began to think of ways to save their lives.
When Lin Jing and his men arrived, they had no idea what was going on, but they had no choice but to deal with Lin Jing.
Now that some people with ulterior motives have begun to sow discord between them, they feel as if they have been stabbed in the heart, with all kinds of complex emotions such as fear, terror, anger, and entanglement surging in their minds.
There was a loud bang, and the extremely complex emotions exploded. Many people could no longer care about anything else. They gathered in groups of three or two and tried their best to break free from the soldiers' obstruction.
"Luoyang City is not safe anymore. We have to leave here as soon as possible."
"Official, why are you stopping us? Are you trying to take us to see the emperor?"
"The emperor is a madman. We can't go to see him."
The people wanted to escape from Luoyang City and did not want to rush out to see the emperor as they had done before. The people who were hiding among them and stirring up trouble almost got so angry when they heard what they said.
"Why don't you go see him? He is the culprit who caused us to be displaced and our family to be broken up."
They did not want the people to escape from their control and continued to instigate them with words, trying to get them to rebel in order to save their lives.
"Don't be afraid, folks. We have so many people here. If the old emperor is guilty, he will definitely send someone to stop us. Then we can negotiate with him."
"If the old emperor is determined to suppress us, for the sake of our descendants, we have no choice but to fight him to the death."
In order to make the rebellion bigger, these people completely disregarded what would happen to the common people. They incited the people with one word after another, and they wished that the whole Luoyang city would be in chaos so that they could fish in troubled waters.
While Lin Jing was trying to calm the emotional people, he was also searching for those who were instigating the people to rebel with words, and he soon locked onto a few strong men who were jumping happily.
His gaze fell on these people, as if he was looking at a dead person, and there was an unusually coldness in the depths of his eyes.
"My fellow villagers, there are rebels among you. They are deliberately trying to instigate you. If you take their words seriously, when His Majesty gets angry, you will be pushed out as scapegoats."
"The rebels have no good intentions. They want to fish in troubled waters and cause chaos in Luoyang City. Folks, if Luoyang City really becomes chaotic, even if you flee Luoyang City, you will not be able to survive with your family in other places."
"You should know that now, apart from Luoyang City, there are wars everywhere else, and there are foreign enemies invading the border areas."
"You are young and strong. If you run away, you will either become refugees or be forcibly conscripted into the army."
While Lin Jing was trying to persuade people earnestly, he signaled his men to seize the opportunity to blend into the crowd and capture those strong men who were dancing happily.
The people he brought with him were good at martial arts and were smart.
While the people were emotional and unwilling to listen to Lin Jing's words and continued to rush out, they used their cleverness to separate the crowd and quickly came to the strong men who were pinching their noses and throats to provoke the people, and took them down before they could react.
"This bastard official is going to kill someone, folks, help!"
Several strong men were suddenly shackled. They were so scared that their faces turned pale and their bodies trembled. But after a while, they thought of their mission and asked the people for help without hesitation.
The ordinary people who relied on them actually reached out a hand to rescue them.
"What are you doing? Let them go."
"You damned dog official, are you trying to force us to death?"
"What do you mean by forcing us to death? It's obvious that he doesn't want to hide anymore and wants to capture us and present us to the emperor."
"Kill the dog official, folks, let's quickly join forces to kill this dog official."
Most of the people had no opinions of their own. After hearing what the strong men said, they felt like their heads were filled with paste, and then they stared at Lin Jing with red eyes.
Their eyes were filled with hatred and their faces were distorted as if Lin Jing was the murderer of their father and they would not stop until he took revenge.
Lin Jing is considered to be well-informed, but at this moment, facing the eyes of many people who were looking at him as if he were the murderer of his father, he felt a little numb in his heart.
"These people are traitors. They are deliberately trying to sow discord. Folks, you must not fall into their trap."
Lin Jing immediately called over a dozen soldiers to help, and then explained in a loud voice.
He knew that under such circumstances, the people would not believe him, so he continued.
"These people are stronger than you, and their hands must have calluses from practicing martial arts. Folks, you may not believe me, but you can believe your own eyes."
"You can go and check their hands right now. I believe you will be able to find something wrong with their hands. Then it will be clear who is lying."
