Seeing that Xie Linlang didn't seem so angry, Chang Qiyu said in a low voice.
"Actually, what you said, I felt it too..."
Xie Linlang ignored him and was still eating her own breakfast.
Before she saw it with her own eyes, her feelings were not deep. It was as if the memory in her mind told her that women in this world were miserable. Although she knew it, she didn't care too much.
Later, she encountered a lot of obstacles and saw a lot, and then she knew what miserable was and how miserable it could be.
This also made her feel inexplicable. She felt that she should do something and do something within her power.
Presumably many people see those poor people with similar thoughts, such as helping out, helping, or being angry at their poor experience.
But maybe it's because she killed too many people, and her thoughts have become more extreme now. Either she doesn't do it, or she wants to do it once and for all!
Chang Qiyu saw that her eating speed had slowed down before continuing.
"Do you know why the emperor is so angry with me this time? I am obviously his proudest child, and I have made countless contributions to him."
Xie Linlang didn't lift her head, "Because you lost to me, he felt that your improper command hindered his great cause, so he took anger on you!"
Her rude words made Chang Qiyu laugh.
"Yes, that is the main reason, but there are other reasons."
He said sternly, "The main purpose of Zeguo's expansion of offshore islands in recent years is not to plunder, but to capture the islands and station the navy, because the emperor intends to start a war against the neighboring sea country - Rose."
"Like his grandfather, he was absolutely obsessed with expanding his territory, so after his defeat in the battle of the Inland Sea, he ordered me to capture the three islands leading to Rosser in a row in order to inspire me in the naval force, so as to boost the morale of the army and serve the next generation. Prepare for a one-step attack."
"But I refused."
Xie Linlang raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why refuse?"
Chang Qiyu thought about it for a long time, and thought about it.
"After I came back from the defeat, the people stood on both sides of the road, crying loudly.
Because of the battle of the Inner Sea, more than 50,000 people were killed and injured, which was the largest casualty in the past ten years. Moreover, many of them were from the capital. They believed that this battle would be won, so they participated in one after another, wanting to get a little bit of victory. .
The result was a failure. After the teacher returned to court, the city was crying for a month.
I was also very sad, especially when the parents of the deceased rushed to ask me why the child didn't even have a whole body, I really couldn't answer. "But the royal father couldn't see the cries of the common people. The most important thing in his heart was military spirit and expansion. In order to force me to attack the island, he threatened not to send pensions. At that moment, I really felt very uncomfortable." , very annoying! "
"And in the same month, I experienced three assassinations, all of which were organized by slaves to kill me. It was from that time that I realized that I seemed to be doing something wrong."
"From childhood to adulthood, I have been taught that only by expanding into the strongest country, our citizens will be richer and safer, so our war is just and necessary!
But the fact is that the land of Zeguo is getting bigger and bigger, but it can't take care of it at all, and it can't manage it.
In order to support one war after another, the taxation of the common people is getting heavier and heavier, just like this time, the reason why so many people from the capital go to the battlefield with me is also to avoid the tax and earn a little more money to go home.
The people living in the capital are all working so hard and risking their money for the sake of money, what about the people outside the capital? What kind of life do they live
Has the war brought them abundance and security? If not, why are we fighting? "
"I never understood it until I met you, until you told me the idea of 'stop expanding and lay a solid foundation' for governing the country.
War cannot make the people rich and strong, it can only make the nobles richer, the poor poorer, and put more pressure on the common people!
For their own interests and ambitions, some people put on the cloak of righteousness for the war, blinding the world and themselves. "
"However, no amount of wealth can satisfy their hopes and ambitions. Even if there is a clear decree, they will continue to plunder slaves and occupy land.
And the root of all these ills is because no one stops them, someone encourages them, and even the emperor is involved, as crazy as they are.
They simply don't care about the fact that they can't govern after so much land is laid down. Perhaps they have never thought about governing, they just want to plunder it after they are laid down.
Then tell the people who have been blinded by them that Zeguo has become the strongest country on the sea, and push the scars of the war to the people, and keep the plundered wealth for themselves.
And the final result will only be smoke of gunpowder everywhere. "
"I don't want Zeguo to be destroyed by them, so if I can master the absolute right to speak, I will abolish the slave law, stop the expansion, and spend a lifetime to correct this mistake.
The above are my words from the bottom of my heart, Xie Linlang, I know that I am full of sins, but my heart that I want to change all this is true, will you believe me again? "
Chang Qiyu rarely speaks his heart to others, so every word is very difficult and very cautious.
After Xie Linlang heard it, her heart gradually eased a lot.
After all, he is one of the few normal princes in Zeguo, and he thinks far too far.
If the fight continues like Zeguo, it won't be long before there will be smoke everywhere because of improper jurisdiction.
At that time, no matter how much land they have laid down, it will be in vain. After all, they are separated by the sea and cannot respond in time. As long as the locals gather to counterattack once, they can kill all the garrisoned troops and seize the territory.
But this time the casualties on both sides were real.
What the war leaves to the people will always be scars.
If Chang Qiyu can really do what he said when he becomes emperor, then Zeguo is not exhausted, and it can be extended for several generations.
But at present, it seems that if he wants to be the emperor, he may have to be determined to die.
Because of decades of expansion and plunder, Zeguo has left huge hidden dangers.
The class contradiction between the rich and the poor, and the bloody feud between slaves and slaves, these problems have accumulated for decades and no one has solved them.
Not only are they unresolved, as the expansion continues, they snowball bigger and bigger, and eventually they will explode sooner or later!
Right now, the enemy is taking advantage of the hidden dangers of Zeguo to plan for himself.
If he planned shallowly, she could stop it.
If the other party's plan has been extended to her worst guess, then no one can stop it, the bomb will definitely go off!
