"In this drought, part of Yaozhou, the fief of Qin Nan Wang, is also affected." Gao Taibao told Sima Jiao about the news he had received. After thinking about it, he said, "There is one more thing. King Qin Nan called for his only daughter not long ago. A son-in-law, this man was born a commoner, unremarkable."

"Oh?" Sima Jiao thought for a moment and said, "King Qin Nan is very fond of his only daughter. It is estimated that his daughter has to marry, otherwise he will be proud of King Qin Nan's heart. I am afraid that he will not be willing to recruit. A son-in-law."

Gao Taibao nodded: "Your Majesty's expectation is good. King Qin Nan's daughter ran away from home before and when she came back, she clamored to marry the man. King Qin Nan couldn't hold her temper and agreed. The man now leaped from her. The common people became the son-in-law of King Qin Nan, and he really made it to the sky in one step. Everyone in Yaozhou is envious of his good luck."

Sima Jiao smiled weirdly, "Good luck? I don't think so. King Qin Nan is so calculating, so easily let a commoner marry his precious daughter, I am afraid that person will also appreciate him, and the person who can admire the old things will be Simple characters?"

"Your Majesty said that, the slave also thinks this person is not easy." Gao Taibao smiled slightly: "The man's name is Chen Yun, he is said to be an ordinary hunter in Hexia, and it sounds strange."

Snapped--

There was a sound of a tea cup falling to the floor in the inner hall. Sima Jiao was about to speak, and when he heard the sound, he stood up and walked into the inner hall, and looked at Liao Tingyan.

Liao Tingyan pulled the quilt and glanced at the broken cup on the ground. She was awakened by Sima Jiao just now. She heard him chatting with Gao Taibao about King Qin Nan and his female partner Qin Wuxian. When she was curious, she sat up and leaned her head to listen, wanting to hear more clearly.

When she heard the familiar words Chen Yun, she moved too much and accidentally dropped a cup next to the couch.

Liao Tingyan, the original heroine of Chen Yun, hasn't remembered for a long time. She thought that she had deviated from the original heroine's path, and Chen Yun's fate would also change. However, he did not expect that he was still on the same path now. The same path in the original book.

In the original book, the male and female protagonists have long lived together, and they quietly worshipped heaven and earth to be a husband and wife. Then Chen Yun wanted to give his sweetheart a better and more prosperous life, and found a way to transport skins to Yaozhou for sale in the winter. On the way, he accidentally rescued Qin Wuxiao, the only daughter of the King of Qin Nan. From then on, the article began to be a tormenting heart. The main storyline is that Qin Wuxian is thinking about Chen Yun, reluctant and not forgiving; the male protagonist has a special liking for the female protagonist, but fate makes others; the female protagonist constantly misunderstands the male protagonist because of the obstruction of the female partner and various supporting roles, and the two misunderstand each other... Too and torture, torture and torture.

But Liao Tingyan remembered that at this point in time, Chen Yun in the original book still did not accept Qin Wuxie. He was a plague. After the uprising, in order to protect others, he had no choice but to marry Qin Wuxian in order to get the support and help of the Qin family.

When Chen Yun and the heroine worshiped heaven and earth, because the heroine's private escape identity needed to be kept secret, there was no testimony except for the two of them. The marriage of the hero and Qin Wuxian was justified in the eyes of everyone. The heroine chose to leave the heroine because her lover wanted to marry another woman. It was at this time that she was left alone by the hero Sima Jiao in the original book and was brought back to the palace.

As a result, now, without her heroine, Chen Yun married Qin Wuxian ahead of time. Liao Tingyan said that this is also very good, since the two have come together, there will be no **** love between the three of the originals, and I wish them to love each other forever.

Liao Tingyan coughed twice while covering the quilt.

Sima Jiao walked to her, raised her head, and looked at her blushing face.

"Hear us talking?"

"Ok."

Sima Jiao asked suddenly: "Do you know that Chen Yun?"

Liao Tingyan: "...!" Wait, I didn't say a word how did you know?

Seeing her look, Sima Jiao's face sank, "Sure enough, you know, seeing your reaction so big, I'm afraid it's not just an ordinary understanding."

If it hadn't been for countless times to scold him in his heart and he didn't respond, Liao Tingyan really wanted to think that this guy could actually read mind.

Liao Tingyan confessed to be lenient, and immediately took Sima Jiao's hand to explain: "I do know him. I remember telling you that I was rescued by mountain bandits before. The benefactor who saved me is Chen Yun."

Sima Jiao sat on the edge of the bed and sneered.

Liao Tingyan didn’t hear it, and said truthfully: “Except for that time, we encountered it twice later, once when I took my servant to go to incense and took shelter from the rain in the mountains, and once when I took the slave girl to the lake. I encountered it by accident, I only said a word to him in total!"

Sima Jiao waved his hand, "If you explain so clearly what you are doing, is it possible that the lonely will misunderstand him."

Liao Tingyan: What do you insist on after you say "lonely"! If you find that your girlfriend has an ex-boyfriend's horrible expression, it will be dead if you don't explain it clearly!

Around the hair on Liao Tingyan's chest, Sima Jiao asked her casually, "What do you think of Chen Yun? What kind of person is he?"

There is no end, and you and him have no intersection. Is this inexplicable scene of interest in him destined? Liao Tingyan slandered, and a moment later gave Sima Jiao an answer: "He is a good man."

Judging from the few short times they got along, they are indeed a good person. The original male protagonist was a good man in the early stage, otherwise he could save the girl again and again.

Sima Jiao: "Also, what do you think of his appearance and personality?"

In Liao Tingyan's trance, there is a subtle feeling of being a boyfriend and being caressed about by his ex-girlfriend. She must be too sick. After coughing again, Liao Tingyan replied wittily: "I don't remember how it looks. After all, I have only seen it a few times. I don't have a deep relationship with my personality, so I can't judge."

After she finished speaking, Sima Jiao raised his hand and touched her neck.

Flicked, pulled her over and kissed her.

Liao Tingyan: "..." Wait, my old lady will pass the disease on to you!

"You rest first." Sima Jiao wiped the corners of her lips, let go, stood up and walked out. She was normal, and she couldn't see how she was feeling.

Liao Tingyan fell back on the bed with a snap.

...

Luo Jingzhong didn't know when the rumors began.

"Did you know? It is said that this great drought was caused by your majesty's cruelty and favoring enchantresses, and killing people in the palace every day for pleasure. That's why God will punishing your majesty for his atrocities!" Similar rumors spread up and down. , But could not find the source.

Rumors have always been the most difficult to stop. Later, almost all of them condemned the emperor's brutality and the imperial concubine's beauty.

This matter quickly spread to Sima Joule. He summoned the cavalry general who was guarding the palace and sneered and ordered, "The rumorer, kill."

The cavalry general sweated on his forehead, and said with difficulty: "But your Majesty, there are so many rumors. There are too many people who have talked about it. The so-called law does not blame everyone..."

Sima Jiao leaned back in his chair and said in a cold tone: "Then immediately send someone to station at every intersection in the city. As long as you hear someone gathering rumors, you will put to death the one with the loudest voice, and you will set up a hundred flagpoles on the main street. The corpses of these people are hung on it, letting people know the fate of the emperor."

The cavalry general was so shocked that he didn't dare to speak. This was really too much trouble. Before, there were people in Luo Jing secretly preaching that his Majesty was a tyrant, but he did not spread it like this, which made his Majesty angry. He knew that there was indeed going to be a **** storm in Luo Jing this time, and after he stepped back honestly, he immediately called the soldiers and patrolled everywhere.

This behavior caused many people to curse in anger at the beginning and settle the rumors. However, as the flags hung with corpses were raised, fewer and fewer people dared to speak out, even those who were willing to stir up rumors. , Do not dare to stir up people's hearts blatantly.

There are still a small number of people who are not afraid of death and publicize, "What are you afraid of, the law does not blame the public, there are millions of people in Luojing City, can your Majesty kill so many people?"

Sima Jiao, who was sitting in the highest position in the palace, said the same sentence, "Luojing has millions of people and can't kill them."

"It's just a mere hundred people. If there are still people arguing about the emperor and preaching about the harem, they will erect a hundred or a thousand flags. I just want to see whether these flags are full of people first, or the rumors first stop. rest."

Facts have proved that under such **** suppression, the previous Xuanhe rumors quickly calmed down. Looking at the corpse hanging on the corner of the street, no one dared to spread those rumors, Luo Jing fell into a strange calm.

Contrary to Luojing's calmness are other state capitals. Rumors seem to have grown wings and spread quickly in other places, especially in the disaster-stricken areas and the affected areas, where dissatisfaction gradually arises.

Liao Tingyan was stunned for a long time when he first heard the news of a riot. She couldn't understand that it was obviously different from the original. Compared with the shocking tragic image of the original, Sima Jiao ordered people to deal with it in time because of the importance of the court. The disaster situation in various places has been alleviated. Why are there still riots? Will there be an uprising after that?

Sima Jiao hugged her, and when she saw her stunned, he asked, "Why, worrying about the victims' riots again?"

Liao Tingyan returned to his senses, looked at him, and wondered: "Why did the victims riots? Hasn't your Majesty let people deal with the disaster?"

Sima Jiao scratched her chin, "Why are you so stupid?"

Liao Tingyan: "..."

"Since ancient times, natural disasters have killed people, but if there are too many people dead, people will panic, and once there are too many people panicking, riots will occur. This is normal." Sima Jiao said.

Not the same, not in her time. For the first time, Liao Tingyan clearly understood how different the time he lived in before and the time he is now in. Different concepts and different political systems have created different people.

Even after being here for nine years, Liao Tingyan still can’t fully get used to the contempt for human life and the strict class in this world. Here, everyone feels about the execution of superiors and subordinates, the execution of slaves by masters, and the killing of children by parents. Of course, there are occasional condemnations, but they all admit that this is in line with the rules.

"If there is a riot, will your majesty send troops to suppress it?" Liao Tingyan asked suddenly.

Sima Jiao didn't even think about it, "Of course." He paused, his expression unclear, "You want me not to hurt those rioting mobs?"

Liao Tingyan was silent for a moment and shook his head: "I will not stop your Majesty from doing anything."

She is now afraid of what she has changed. She is not sure. If she asks Sima Jiao to change her practice, the result will be good or bad. If it is a worse outcome, she can't bear it.

After all, she doesn't understand how the protagonists in those novels and movies and TV dramas have such courage. From an ordinary person to a powerful character, she dares to decide the fate and life and death of countless people casually? Are they all worthy? She is so vain!

Seeing her curled up in her arms, Sima Jiao hugged her and whispered: "What are you sad about? Are you sad for those you don't know?"

Liao Tingyan did not speak in his arms, and Sima Jiao touched her hair faintly and said, "It has been like this since ancient times. The weather will be smooth and the people will live in peace. Once a disaster occurs, they will want to be hostile. Use this to vent your fears. I am the emperor, and my subjects can surrender to me, or they can succumb to me in the blink of an eye. I have understood this since I was young. As long as I show weakness, I will be dragged from the sky to the ground. Sitting in this position, all around me It's the battlefield, this kind of thing is commonplace and extremely boring."

"Look at this rumor, you are so stupid, you definitely don't know how many people are pushing behind it, and how many people are secretly trying to move."

Liao Tingyan: "...I don't understand."

Sima Jiao: "I know you don't understand, but with me, you don't need to worry about anything, stay by my side with peace of mind."
