Chapter 105 I saved you, why...
105
"They are human beings, how can you ask them to fight with dogs?" Fu Hechen said to Fu Jiangyu anxiously, "Please take back your decision."
"You also know that you are a dog?" Fu Jiangyu asked someone to drag Fu Hechen into the arena and let him compete with Princess Thirteen in the first game.
"If you kill him, you won't have to compete in the arena anymore, and you won't have to go to the mines to dig. You can do some easier work." Fu Jiangyu threw a sword to the Thirteenth Princess. "I heard you're good with a sword. Go ahead."
Fu Hechen couldn't help but shook his head, thinking that Fu Jiangyu still didn't understand them. He and Princess Thirteen were truly in love. He helped her and her relatives. They couldn't possibly point their swords at him. According to Fu Hechen's idea, these people would give up the fight.
In Fu Hechen's imagination, they would stand up and say that they would rather be bitten to death by dogs than fight with Fu Hechen. Fu Jiangyu would be moved by their behavior and end this ridiculous competition.
But who knew that after the Thirteenth Princess got the sword, she rushed directly towards him with murderous eyes, without any hesitation, and her previous love also disappeared.
Princess Thirteen knew that Fu Hechen could not protect her and that she would have no chance of escape in the future. In order to minimize the losses, she had no choice but to kill Fu Hechen.
Fu Hechen looked at the sword stabbing at him in surprise, and his body instinctively took a few steps back. Then the others came together, surrounded him, and wanted to kill him together.
"I saved you, how could you do this to me?" Fu Hechen kept backing away. The fists, kicks and swords coming from all directions made him exhausted and had many wounds on his body.
"We could have been mining without any danger, but you instigated us and made us hide everywhere. Now we have to fight with dogs. It's all your fault!" They rushed up with roars, wishing they could skin him alive.
When he followed Fu Jiangyu to the battlefield, they mostly used explosives. He had no chance to experience the feeling of being attacked from both sides. At this moment, he finally empathized with the soldiers who died in the cemetery.
He fought back desperately and was beaten until his head was bleeding: "Your Majesty, I was wrong. I know how stupid I was before. I will never sympathize with them again!"
Fu Hechen thought this was Fu Jiangyu's punishment for him, just like when he made mistakes as a child and his parents punished him by spanking his hands.
As long as he begged for mercy and knew that he was really wrong, Fu Jiangyu would forgive him like his parents.
But Fu Jiangyu was not his father. He was choosing the heir to the throne. Fu Hechen was shocked and felt that he had committed a capital crime. No matter how Fu Hechen cried and begged for mercy, Fu Jiangyu did not even look at him again.
When Fu Hechen fell to the ground exhausted, he just saw Fu Jiangyu turning around and leaving.
Only then did he realize in despair how big a mistake he had made.
However, in the end, Fu Jiangyu did not let the Jiang people really kill him. When he took his last breath, he asked someone to pull him out.
Fu Jiangyu didn't want anyone to be killed by the Jiang people.
Fu Jiangyu ordered his men to throw Fu Hechen out of the city and demote him to a commoner, so that he would never be able to enjoy the privileges of a noble again.
Fu Hechen lost his identity, his property, and was covered in injuries. As soon as he left the city, he was captured by soldiers and sent to work in a factory.
The officers and soldiers had a mission and could not allow any idle people in Jin State. Everyone had to have a job, unless they had fields or land, shops or businesses, or set up stalls or worked as laborers. As long as they had something to do and were not starving to death, they would not be captured. People like Fu Hechen, who was dressed in rags and covered in wounds, wandering aimlessly, looked too much like a refugee.
He was forced to transport sand to a glass factory. He had been used to a life of luxury, but now he had no one to serve him and had to work every day. He couldn't stand it in the first few days.
But his roommates always cared for him. Sometimes when they saw he didn't eat, they would bring him some food, teach him how to dry quilts and wash clothes, and tell jokes to make him laugh. He felt a sense of homeliness that he had never felt before.
He was a little tired, but at least he survived. In the past, he treated the people as emotionless tools, thinking that they were all fools without their own thoughts, and they would do whatever policies were issued by their superiors.
But now that he is actually living among ordinary people, he has discovered that everyone is a living person. They do not have joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness just because they are poor. They also have their own emotions, and their emotions are as strong as those of those in power.
At this time, he still felt that Fu Jiangyu was testing him, otherwise he would not have spared his life and given him a job. He just wanted him to experience the suffering of the people. It was possible that Fu Jiangyu had hired secret guards to secretly observe his every move nearby, and when they saw his changes, they would soon let him go back.
When he thought of this, he became very motivated and was often praised by his team leader.
He thought, "I'm going to be the emperor of Jin in the future. Is there anything I can't do?"
As a result, after he had worked here for half a year, he heard that the emperor had appointed Fu Lingchuan as the Crown Princess.
This news caused quite a stir. After all, Fu Lingchuan was a woman. Could a woman inherit the throne?
However, this woman was no one else but the princess, she was also Lin Baige's student, a fairy. Most people did not think there was anything wrong with him being the emperor, but many ministers opposed it, especially after Fu Hechen's downfall. They split into different factions and assisted the prince they favored. However, the princess had no supporters, and they did not believe that the princess could inherit the throne at all.
Not only them, but Fu Hechen also didn't believe it. He thought he must be crazy, or Fu Jiangyu was crazy. He just made a small mistake, so why was he excluded directly? Did he have to be an ordinary citizen for the rest of his life? Was he going to haul sand in this factory for the rest of his life?
While he was thinking, his fellow workers asked him to pull sand. He only resisted a little in his heart and hurried to pull the sand.
If he doesn't work, he won't even have a place to live or eat. His fellow workers are all planning how much they can earn each month and save for a few years to buy a house.
He gradually assimilated into the thinking of his fellow workers, especially when he was pulling sand. He felt that becoming an emperor was so far away, and it was more realistic for him to save money to buy a house.
However, some ministers who opposed Fu Lingchuan found him. His father, the king, had not given up on his son. He joined forces with a group of ministers to secretly find him and told him, "The emperor will take the imperial concubine to inspect Jiang State in a while. When he does, he will let Fu Lingchuan take over the official duties temporarily. When that time comes, we will support you as the new emperor. We will storm into the palace and kill Fu Lingchuan. We will also capture and kill the other princes and princesses. When your majesty returns, there will be no heir."
Fu Hechen: "Don't you think your plans are stupid? Why do you all suddenly become less intelligent every once in a while?"
"Are you willing to pull sand in this factory for the rest of your life? Don't you want to give it a try?" They advised Fu Hechen, and even Fu Hechen's father, the emperor, and mother threatened to commit suicide.
…
Fu Jiangyu said that he would take Lin Baige to Jiang Country to have a look. It was a good opportunity for Fu Lingchuan to gain some experience during this period. "A lot of people are secretly doing something. Let's leave for a while and see if she can survive."
"So serious?" Lin Baige was packing his luggage excitedly. After traveling here, he had very few opportunities to leave the capital. The mission was about to end, and he also wanted to take Fu Jiangyu away from here. He took advantage of the last chance to go to the beach with Fu Jiangyu for some fun.
But then they heard Fu Jiangyu say that when they left this time, someone wanted to kill Fu Lingchuan, the heir they had carefully chosen. If she was in danger, how could they leave with peace of mind?
"Can we protect her for the rest of her life? How can she be the emperor if she can't even protect her own life?" Fu Jiangyu does look very unkind sometimes, but if he wasn't cruel, he wouldn't be alive today.
"You're right..." Lin Baige knew that this world was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. He was able to survive in this world because of his hard work step by step.
When he was not strong at the beginning, he also used a lot of tricks. Before he opened a factory, founded a school, and everyone treated him as a god, he had to survive bit by bit and make himself stronger slowly.
"But she has just become the Crown Princess, and you haven't taught her anything. Are we going to let her face so many storms here alone? Is that okay?" Lin Baige was very worried. He wanted to say that Fu Jiangyu was biased. He taught Fu Hechen so attentively before, but now it was Fu Lingchuan's turn, he let her grow up on her own and left her in such a dangerous place to face the risks alone.
"I personally taught Fu Lingchuan before, but he ended up like this. I wasn't taught by my father either, so I have to walk a lot of paths on my own." Fu Jiangyu threw a few more of his favorite clothes into Lin Bai's luggage. Most of the clothes Lin Baige wore were made according to his preferences. "Can you take these back to the modern era? I've seen your wardrobe. Modern clothes are a bit strange. Many of them have no sleeves. Your pants also reveal your calves. Are you poor? If you are, bring more silver back."
"I'm not that poor, but you did remind me! Bring some silver back! No, bring gold and some antiques. After we go back, we can just lie down and have some fun." Lin Baige did what he said and moved his small treasury into the small clinic.
However, after moving in, the system poured cold water on him: "The system space will be closed after the mission is completed. After closing, the host cannot take anything inside."
Lin Baige: "...all in vain."
When he came back and saw Fu Jiangyu's face, he said, "Actually, your face is my greatest treasure. You don't need to take anything else with you. Let's take the train to the beach!"
