That incident became a long-lasting nightmare in his heart, which could not be wiped away or erased, and bound his soul.Now, it has been more than ten years in a flash.

At that time, he was just 14 years old, so he went abroad to study alone for a year.On the way back to Beijing, he encountered an accident that changed his whole life ever since.It happened to be a drought, and many people had no crops. He traveled all the way, only seeing the miserable conditions of the people, but the court ignored them, and even played songs every night.At that time, he was extremely sad and indignant - it was a so-called compassionate heart that was compassionate but arrogant.

...to alleviate the suffering of the people, but it has no effect.

One day, he couldn't go to the city in time, so he had to spend the night at a farmer's house.In the middle of the night, he was awakened by a noise, and then he saw figures intertwined on the window paper, and there was a burst of angry shouts mixed with faint crying.Surprised for no reason, he immediately got up and went out to investigate, followed the hurried villagers to the entrance of the village, and saw a scene that he would never forget.

On a simple altar built with dozens of tree trunks, four or five young children were tied up there. A man in white clothes and a white turban held a knife in his hand and cut open the necks of the children one by one. The sacrificial vessel then spewed out blood.The other trapped children wept earth-shatteringly when they saw this horrific scene.

He hurriedly stopped this behavior, but was held up by the villagers and could not move. Only then did he realize that this was a ceremony—to use the blood of a boy to pray for mercy from the heavens, and to ask for help from the gods with the bones of a boy.Hearing this, he was filled with shock and anger, and blamed those ignorant villagers with righteous indignation, but was stopped by an old man.

The old man said, "Master, you come from a noble background, but have you ever understood the hardships of the poor? You have traveled far and wide, and you have learned a little bit about the world? Your heart is higher than the sky. Maybe you can ask the heaven to let me and the common people live?"

After all, the ceremony continued, and he couldn't move at all, watching those children being bled to death alive.All the pity, all the sympathy, turned into smoke at this moment, and he could only hopelessly watch a tragedy unfold in front of him.He was watching from the beginning to the end, and he knew that he should stop it, but in the end he was powerless.

He returned to the farmhouse where he was staying in a daze, as if he had gone through a life-and-death struggle, powerless and desperate, until he saw the family crying with their heads in each other's arms. It is known that this festival will be held in this village, but the villagers cannot watch their children die in front of their eyes, so they switch from village to village and pray to heaven with boys from other villages.

When he returned to the capital, he immediately asked his father to order an end to such behavior, but was blocked back.Liu Ziwen was just asking him back, "The criminal law already stipulates that killing people pay for their lives, so why did this behavior occur? The imperial court knew the sufferings of the people, so why didn't they care about it? , Why? Even today I ordered to put an end to it, how did you know about those secret actions? Today I learned about the actions of the villagers, and everyone is a murderer, so what crime should I punish?"

He has nothing to say.He has learned many things from books, and he has lamented and criticized, but it is far less than what he saw with his own eyes... Horrified and desperate.

The following year, he took part in the scientific examination, and then firmly entered the court as an official.The old wishes of the past have also been completely thrown away. The so-called galloping around the rivers and lakes, watching the stars and the moon, using the sky and the earth as a dome, tasting the warmth and coldness of the world, and writing books about all kinds of flavors is actually a kind of extravagant idea.If you don't have enough to cover your body, how can you talk about those elegant interests.

In front of my eyes, a cluster of aquatic plants was tossed and shaken by the rapids.Liu Yi withdrew her gaze, turned her head slightly, and saw Si Cangqing's indifferent face. The other party seemed to be listening carefully, pursed her lower lip, and then said a little uncomfortably, "...It seems that I shouldn't have taken the emperor's place. Time is all it takes to talk about these nonsense things.”

Si Cangqing looked at the other party's slightly vicissitudes of face coldly. The day and night inspection and settlement here these days made this man's complexion look not very good.He said indifferently, "What do those things have to do with you?"

The suffering of the people cannot be completely avoided, whether it is a prosperous or a troubled world; the responsibility for the behavior of changing children and eating them does not lie with any one person. The people are ignorant.That matter had nothing to do with this person from the beginning to the end, and he didn't understand why this person felt so guilty.

Human power is inherently limited, so why bother to carry burdens that you simply cannot afford?

Liu Yi's body trembled slightly, and his expression suddenly became a little complicated, so he lowered his eyelids to cover all the emotions in his eyes, and just replied softly: "The ancient sages said that they helped the world but poor themselves, so I also thought it through, so I had to Do your best."

It's just that the matter of offering sacrifices to the heavens with boys can't be erased from his heart... He hates it, but he has the heart but is powerless; watching the whole ceremony with his own eyes, it seems that he is also one of them, and is also an accomplice who pushed the children to the butcher's knife one.

Si Cangqing looked at the surface of the Tangtang River, and in the distance, a small boat appeared among the waves.

"Poverty does not lose righteousness, attainment does not deviate from the Tao, and being a human being is exhausted."

This person's usual indifferent tone was rare to have a touch of human touch, so it was not an explanation, but Liu Yi was slightly stunned by just telling him, staring silently at Si Cangqing's side face, the lines outlined a cruel and ruthless meaning.

◇Cang ◇ Huan ◇ Seven ◇ Palace ◇

Slightly in a trance.

This young emperor, who has just reached the weak crown, is decisive in killing and killing, and is even more ruthless. He can issue a massacre order without changing his face, and he can listen to the wailing and crying without moving his face.It's chilling to be so cold.

However, in the position of heaven, since ancient times, no emperor has done better than him.He is indifferent, but always bows to everything; he is ruthless, but always handles the government affairs with due diligence.

"Hahaha……"

The children in front of them were playing and playing, and there was a burst of clear and joyful laughter.

Liu Yi suddenly remembered that day, that child Wang Xiaohu liked to come to Si Cangqing very much, and would send him some wild fruits from the countryside from time to time.Sometimes, Xiaohu would secretly stare at the finger wrench in Si Cangqing's hand, obviously fond of it.In the end, Si Cangqing unexpectedly took off the finger ring and gave it to Xiaohu. This move surprised even Cheng Tianbi, who was next to him.

Unconsciously looking at Si Cangqing's smooth hand, now holding a handful of wet water chestnuts, it really doesn't fit his image!Liu Yi couldn't help showing a slight smile. Among the folks, people say that people who love children have a soft heart.So……

The bottom of my heart couldn't help being aroused a little curiosity, does this cold emperor also have a soft heart?

"Look at what?"

The cold voice awakened Liu Yizi emotionally, he looked away uncomfortably, and said, "I didn't see anything..."

Si Cangqing didn't care about him, just stared at the water chestnut in his hand, the cold water accidentally wet his sleeves, and then handed the water chestnut to Liu Yi.

Somewhat puzzled, Liu Yi looked at the other party blankly, only listening to the man say: "I don't know how to do it."

"Heh," Liu Yi couldn't help laughing, with a soothing expression, took it carefully, and said softly: "Then I peel it for the emperor to eat?"

Si Cangqing said hello nonchalantly.

Under the ridge, two slender figures stood side by side, as if admiring the magnificent rural scenery, occasionally chatting with each other.Not far from them, the children ran to and fro, and sometimes the biggest one ran up to them, holding something in his hand.

This countryside is full of peace and tranquility.

Another few days, Cheng Tianbi and those doctors worked almost day and night to treat the common people, and other villagers also actively cooperated.In addition to Luyang Township, news from the other eleven townships is also coming in, and the situation is encouraging.

Seeing that everyone started to get better, the officers and soldiers followed Cheng Tianbi's instructions to dispose of the things used and the houses where the poisoned people had lived.

Although they are temporarily homeless, the villagers are all happy. The people who were originally transferred are also returning one after another. It is their hometown where they have lived for generations, and they are all reluctant to leave.

It was November and it was cold.

Liu Yi stood in front of the crowd, watching the scene where the villagers and their relatives hugged each other and cried, her expression could not help but relax slightly.After a long time, after everyone gradually calmed down, he spoke slowly:

"Now that the plague has been expelled, the villagers don't have to worry anymore. Although the houses are destroyed, the imperial court will distribute payments to the townships in the near future to help you rebuild your houses and survive the cold winter. I would like to thank all the villagers for being able to Trusting the imperial court so much, keeping calm and helping each other, I am like you in the world, it is really a blessing from God."

Listening to Liu Yi's words, the villagers were all in tears, the fear of these days finally made it difficult for everyone to suppress their emotions.

Looking at the chaotic scene again, Liu Yi just pursed her lips, tilted her head slightly, and looked at Si Cangqing who was looking over there with her hands behind her back. Beside him, Xiaohu was making gestures with a smile on his face.

"...Thank you, thank you, Prime Minister.
