Chapter 445 Harvest
Too many people are unhappy!
Luo Sheng didn’t know how much meaning was contained in this simple sentence, but he wanted to laugh.
He fell silent, looking at this county magistrate who was quite unexpected and strange to him.
The county magistrate said a lot, which might make sense or might be twisted logic, but what really moved Luo Sheng was actually the sentence "You don't consider yourselves as Han people."
The family made many contributions to the Han Dynasty. Luo Ling, Luo Yi, Luo Xin, Luo Chen, Luo Jing, Luo Wu Ji, and Luo Cai made greater contributions than most of the other princes and kings.
But except Luo Xin and Luo Jing, no one else considered themselves Han Chinese.
The reason why Luo Sheng was moved was that when he thought about himself, it was indeed the case. He would not feel anything because of the decline of the Han Dynasty.
This is not a good thing.
The Han court and the Luo family could be close, or they could be at odds with each other, or even confront each other, but this should not be seen by the world.
In the eyes of the people of the world, the Luo family and the central dynasty should always be one.
Because there is only one sun in the sky, and all the people in China are only one!
Moreover, King Zhaosheng said in person that the speed at which the Han Dynasty's family foundation increased was far slower than that of the Zhou Dynasty, but he did not explain the reason.
The change in attitude of Marquis Anyang and the Lu family must have been because they saw that the Luo family was unwilling to interfere in the affairs of the Han court and had no intention of integrating into the Han Dynasty, so they only asked for opinions and did not allow the Luo family to take direct action.
Luo Sheng felt a little emotional, this really was a case of the people involved being confused.
Lou Huai continued, "We are the insects you mentioned. We roll around in this world, but most of us can't hold on and become the people you call scumbags.
When I first turned into an insect, I was not used to it, but later I found that most ordinary people, except saints, would do the same, so I felt at ease. "
Luo Sheng frowned slightly, this is the perverse logic that the head is determined by the butt again.
However, Lou Huai at least admitted that those saints with extremely high ideological levels are not bound by this rule.
“But I still feel ashamed in front of you.
I really envy you. Even if you don't do anything, you can stand on the dry shore cleanly relying on the glory of your ancestors. People all over the world admire the greatness of your family.
The royal family has granted your family the greatest privileges, caravans that can travel throughout the world, far surpassing the private armies of princes and nobles. Your family is allowed to privately store armor without being questioned, and private armies are allowed to be mobilized throughout the world. Commercial activities within Zhaocheng are not even taxed, and no court officials are sent to Zhaocheng. If your family wants to serve in the government, they will be given high positions and generous salaries as soon as they are recommended. The royal family probably also hopes to form an alliance with the Luo family through marriage.
I hope the Luo family can assist the Han Dynasty just as they assisted the Zhou royal family.
As a result, the royal family was so eager to help, but the Luo family kept drifting away. It was really ridiculous."
Lou Huai didn't use any extremely gorgeous adjectives, but instead said the most common "so funny that it's killing me", which made it seem even more absurd.
Luo Sheng was not as shocked when he heard this as he was when he heard that sentence before. Instead, he asked, "Do you think Luo's family shouldn't get these?"
What the family has obtained now is what they deserve. For the Han Dynasty, the family has spent a lot of resources.
The family invented paper and horses, which gave them an advantage in the war against the Huns. The son of destiny used his own destiny to resist the destiny of the Huns. Otherwise, the Huns would have continued to fight with the Han Dynasty until the rise of the Xianbei.
Lou Huai's words could not shake Luo Sheng's will, but instead made him feel more relaxed.
Hearing this, Lou Huai stared at Luo Sheng, with a smile on his face but no smile in his eyes, and said: "Of course he deserves it, and even more. Ying Wenxian Hou was one of the four founding heroes. King Zhaosheng defeated the Xiongnu twice, and King Luowen was even more important. Duke Zhao defeated the Xiongnu without any problems and built the Western Regions. If an ordinary family makes a contribution, it should be passed down for a hundred years, let alone the Luo family?
The emperors of all dynasties have been extremely generous and trusting of the Luo family. The establishment of the Wushuang Marquisate must be able to explain the problem. No normal monarch would allow the existence of the Wushuang Marquisate. "
Luo Sheng said: "Then what do you want to say?"
Lou Huai looked up at the roof and asked, "I want to say that there is no need for the emperor to exist. Why doesn't your family become emperor?
He could have been crowned emperor during the reign of King Zhaosheng."
Luo Sheng's pupils shrank when he heard this.
Lou Huai said to himself, "Five years ago, I became a bug for the first time. At that time, I was wondering whether to choose innocence or life. In the end, I chose life. At that time, I was thinking, how great it would be if the Luo family was a royal family, so I wouldn't have to be forced by the disgusting royal relatives in Nanyang County."
As soon as these words came out, Luo Sheng suddenly understood that the high-ranking officials of the Han court had not yet realized the special existence of the Luo family, and the reason why the county governor in front of him said this was because he had thought about it countless times during the period when he abandoned his conscience and suffered.
However, proclaiming oneself emperor is absolutely prohibited by the King Su. There are not many things that the King Su prohibits, so they must be strictly enforced. This is the iron rule of the family!
Luo Sheng originally thought that the county magistrate who had harmed the people would argue about the justice of his actions, but he did not expect him to say such words.
"My Lord, I have thought about this for a long time: 'The Luo family is not the king'. After all, this is too strange. The Luo family has been the king for thousands of years. In the Han Dynasty, it was still the most prominent family under the royal family. Such a great family should not be something I can think about.
But I was really curious. I was thinking that Luo's could obviously do more, so why didn't they do it?
Your family always seems to be avoiding taking over the reins. The position of the supreme ruler in the world is like a bottle of poison that your family must avoid!
Even if the Luo family does not become king, after King Luo Wen, the Luo family can easily continue to have influence in the court that overshadows the emperor and become an uncrowned emperor!"
An uncrowned emperor is still an emperor. It is no longer a matter of wasting the family's wealth, but a matter of directly wasting the fortune of the family's descendants. It's a pity that these things cannot be told to outsiders.
“When the foreign ministers came to this conclusion, they were extremely disappointed. Since the Luo family wanted to be ministers, they were destined to be under the emperor, just like the highest position under the Su Wang Shanghuang was the Son of Heaven, not the head of the Luo family!
Since your family has handed over the world to the man of destiny, I think it's best to stay away from this world. The royal family will not touch the Luo family. What's the reason why the Luo family keeps showing up from time to time?
No one is thinking about it now, but it will always be faced in the future. If it is done in the name of the Suwang Emperor, then what is the emperor?
If we want to kill a tyrant, then to what extent does one become a tyrant?"
Stay away from the Han Dynasty?
How could Luo Shi want the same thing?
But just as there were compulsory reasons why the Luo family did not become king, the family could not move away from the main empire of the Xia Dynasty, otherwise it would not even be able to afford the foundation for the basic operation of the family.
The Western Region is a branch mine. What is a branch mine? It means that the output of the minerals is far less than that of the main mine.
The Central Plains, especially the political and economic centers like Chang'an and Luoyang, have mixed fortunes. If simply escaping to the Western Regions or Liaodong can allow the family to survive forever, why not stay in Luo Village, Tiannan?
“Duke Zhao is a guest of the Han Dynasty, but he always interferes in the internal affairs of the Han Dynasty. Marquis Wushuang is a minister of the Han Dynasty, but he does not take the monarch as his head. Both of them are very awkward.
The foreign officials have read some history books. During the Zhou Dynasty, the Luo State was much more powerful than the current Luo family, but it always treated the Zhou royal family as a subject. At that time, the Luo family had a king in their hearts, but now they don't.
Under the Su King, the Luo Emperor is equally respected. This is too strange."
Luo Sheng laughed when he heard this, and said leisurely: "If the emperor is not respected equally, how can we restrict the emperor from abusing his supreme power?"
Lou Huai, who had been constantly expressing his thoughts, suddenly froze in place, feeling as if there was something wrong with his ears. He seemed to have just heard the four words "restrict the emperor"!
At this moment, even a person like him felt dizzy and there seemed to be thunder in his head.
Luo Sheng looked at the county governor in front of him. All he was thinking about was the path that the Luo family should take, rather than how to deal with the Luo family. So he asked curiously, "You don't seem to hate the family? People like you should hate the family very much. After all, we are on the opposite side."
Lou Huai was stunned when he heard this, then he burst into laughter and said, "Sir, why do foreign officials hate the Luo family?
Foreign ministers are like weeds on the roadside. They will fall to the direction where the wind is strong. If they resist the strong wind, their roots will be broken and their stems will be snapped. They can only survive by moving with the wind.
There are only so many nutrients in the ground. If you don't absorb them, others will. If you don't absorb more, others will take them away in return. They are just doing it to survive.
But who in this world can always predict the direction of the wind?
There is no such thing as eternal victory in this world. It is only a matter of time before the roots are broken or the stems are snapped!
Once you fail, not only yourself but also your entire family will be overthrown, and no one will be spared.
What your family can bring is a windless environment, where everyone can be content with their lot and absorb nutrients from the little piece of land beneath their feet, without having to worry about fatal disasters coming the next day.
Even though I can no longer live in such an environment, it would be great if my descendants could live in such a world.
Who wouldn’t like that?”
An ordinary person, this is Luo Sheng's evaluation of Lou Huai. Whether a person is ordinary is never determined by external things such as wealth and status, but by his thoughts.
The good qualities shown when one is rich and powerful are not really qualities. A real man when one is poor and humble is a real man. The classic saying "Everyone can step on the accelerator on a straight road, but only when you go fast on a curve can you go really fast" is true to this principle.
Luo Sheng moved his body slightly. Although what he heard today was only Lou Huai's personal opinion, it gave him a lot to think about from the side. It can be said that he gained a lot. These things should be brought back to the family. He should not listen to one side only, but should conduct research among all classes in the world and finally form a complete conclusion.
The comments on the previous chapter made me dumbfounded.
I read it several times to make sure that I did not write about the Liu royal family or the princes and nobles. I only wrote the personal opinion of a county magistrate.
