Seeing the true feeling in his eyes, Chu Xuanchen nodded.
It seems that Jiang Ning, like what he investigated, is a good official who will pity the people.
He raised his eyebrows and said: "In the ten years since Emperor Hongyuan became the throne, under his governance, the Chu Kingdom has weakened its national power and historical disasters have continued. Take this natural disaster as an example, the people have suffered so much, but he only wanted to refine alchemy. Pleasure, arrogance and prostitution; officials in the dynasty only know that they form parties and engage in private interests and intrigue. They don't care about the plight of the people. The emperor only kills the old officials who are loyal to the emperor. The king was really furious when he saw these people's behavior. This king didn't want my Chu family's hard-working foundation to be ruined, so he came to see the adults!"
"Lord, please calm down your anger, all these subordinate officials know. But the subordinate official is only a nine-rank sesame official, who can't control anything, please forgive the subordinate official's incompetence!" Jiang Ning said in fear.
At the same time, his body was trembling, and his heart was very painful.
Chu Xuanchen said: "This king knows the adult's situation, he didn't want to disturb the adult, but the situation is critical now. I have not only internal worries in the country of Chu, but also foreign troubles. There is Tiansheng country in the north, and the east forest country is aggressive. There are the Xianbei, Beimo, Nanman, Xiyi and other tribes greedily staring at us. They harassed our people at the border all the year round, burned, killed, and looted the people of our country. My king recently received news that the barbarians of the Tiansheng Kingdom had actually slaughtered. A village on the border of our country. The emperor kept hiding from everyone, allowing the villagers to be slaughtered and the village being looted. He was afraid that the king would lead soldiers to fight and would strengthen the king’s strength, so he deliberately concealed this. The king thought about it. This matter is extremely angry. How can Emperor Hongyuan act in such a way to protect his family and the country?"
This news was received by him not long ago.
That's why he decided to come to Jiang Ning to win him over and consolidate his strength.
Emperor Hongyuan sent people to assassinate him many times, and the queen poisoned him and Ruoyue many times.
If he doesn't act anymore, what awaits him will be the dispersal of his wife and the destruction of his family.
When Jiang Ning heard this, his face suddenly became angry.
But he still said with trepidation, "The prince calmed down his anger. Perhaps the emperor was afraid that fighting with troops would consume national power and plunge the people into hardship. Coupled with the unremoved floods, maybe he didn't want to have more troubles, so he could bear it for the time being."
Chu Xuanchen snorted softly, "My lord, do you believe what you are saying?"
"This..." Jiang Ning was taken aback. It was obvious that he didn't believe that either.
Chu Xuanchen raised his eyes, full of majesty and domineering. He has the charm of a superior, which makes people want to surrender.
He said: "The emperor's move is simply to care about internal struggles, regardless of the life and death of the people. As the son of the first emperor, the prince of a country, it is really heartache to see the state of Chu like this. I have seen too much suffering. The officials along the way, the people, ravaging the township, withholding money for disaster relief like Mrs. Wei Guo, are everywhere who treat the people like grass, but no one dares to control, because they are all the emperor's party. This king wants to change this situation, wants peace in the world, wants to resist foreign enemies, and regain national prestige!"
If it was before, he wanted to take revenge for his parents, so he wanted to seize the world.
Today, he is for the people.
He had said earlier that if Emperor Hongyuan could make the Chu Kingdom live in peace and the people would live and work in peace, he could let go of this hatred.
