Chapter 997 9. Luo's previous oath
Along with the ruling court's resolution, gendarmes in various places received orders from their superiors.
Editors and reporters who published rumors in newspapers that were unfavorable to the government were arrested, and some of the most influential people were assassinated. At the same time, new laws were introduced to increase the intensity of censorship and add several new crimes related to defamation.
This combination of punches immediately stunned those who spoke up for justice. Many people thought for ten days and ten nights but could not have imagined that the New Learning Party and the government would be so perverse.
The people were also stunned, especially those living in the cities. Many people did not quite understand what national affairs were, but they did understand how to write letters to fight for their interests. But now the people who fought for their interests were killed by the court.
What does this mean?
The reason for their miserable life now is because of those officials in the court.
They say all the nice things but do all the bad things. They are sweet-mouthed but have evil hearts. On the surface, they say they will give them freedom, but in fact they will take away even the last penny.
They only have the freedom to become prostitutes and beggars, they only have the freedom to be serfs and labor slaves, but they do not have any freedom as human beings.
In the past, these things were hidden behind the shadows, making it impossible for people to see clearly, but now the bad guys have jumped out themselves, those officials of the New Learning Party!
The root cause of the miserable life has finally been found. The people are filled with anger. Those who find it hard to bear have begun to take revenge themselves, but most people still don't know how to do it.
There is no clear target. After all, the New School Party is so large, with so many people and many advanced weapons. It is not so easy to defeat it.
The people are very smart in some aspects. They will not be fooled by a few words. Only when they feel the benefits personally will they follow unswervingly.
Who can bring these?
The New School members made promises at the beginning, and then betrayed everything they had said in just a few years. They will no longer believe easily.
The world's credit has collapsed. In this era, no political organization is clean and trustworthy. This is also what the New School Party relies on.
We may not be very clean, but are you really that clean?
Under such circumstances, Li Jiye and Lu Chang made the same choice, that is, Luo family!
Only the Luo family, who are independent of the world, only the Luo family, who are proud of the world, and only the Luo family, who have been steadfast in their determination for thousands of years, can become a banner, the most glorious banner.
If the world is in tatters, only the Luo family can fill that bottomless pit with prestige and political credibility as vast as mountains and seas.
No!
The Luo family will not fill that bottomless pit. They will easily start a new business, light torches in the darkness of ignorance, and the people will flock to them.
The only problem is how to get Luo to agree to be king, and whether this is the right time!
…
This conflict, or more like a riot, that occurred in the Central Plains stunned everyone who had been following the incident. No one expected that the group of New School members who were thought to be a bit of a wimp would be able to organize a suppression campaign so quickly.
Countless voices were heard in various places, analyzing that as the center of the world, the industrial, technological, and economic center, any affairs in the Central Plains would have a profound impact on changes in the overall world situation.
"I heard that they have started to suppress the rebellious people."
"All newspapers in Luoyang City have been banned and declared illegal. Hundreds of people have been arrested. This is a really big fuss."
"This is not the end. I heard that the last emperor Li Jiye has been chased all the way from Henan Province to Jiangnan Province, and is still running all the way to Annan Province. He has not been caught even after going so far. There are also people in the New Learning Party who are dissatisfied."
“I think they are afraid. After all, it’s not just the Li family that took action, but also the Lu family.
Some people secretly spread the rumor that Luo was behind this matter.
Now the voices of opposition are coming in full force, and trouble is about to happen. Except for those who have already boarded the New Learning Party and cannot get off, everyone has the idea of changing sides.
The New Learning Party today is no longer the organization that was united by ideals, but is instead united by common interests. Once it can no longer bring benefits, or even lose everything, it will naturally abandon ship and escape. "
Countless discussions finally turned into the same question:
Should we do something?
But soon they were in trouble themselves. Even if there was no disturbance caused by Lu and others, the economic crisis alone was enough to make them anxious. In this era when the world is connected as one, no one can remain immune from the economic crisis, not to mention the chaos in the Central Plains. The economic level of almost every country and region has declined significantly.
This situation had long been anticipated by Lu Chang and others. Since they were doing this, they would not let outsiders reap the benefits.
Naturally, the situations outside the Central Plains must be carefully considered. The various separatist regimes that are deeply mired in economic crisis do not have the ability to stir up trouble in the Central Plains.
For them, the most uncertain thing is whether Luo would accept the yellow dress.
Lü Chang once used his considerable connections to inquire around and found out that Luo's attitude seemed to have changed, and that Luo seemed to be planning something.
The level of these things is very high, even many people in the Luo family do not know about it. It is said that it is only spread within the highest small circle. Because of this incident, all the Luo family members who were outside were summoned back.
Of course, not in Luoyang.
Many of them went to Luo's hometown, the Zhaocheng ruins.
So what exactly did the Luo family go to the Zhaocheng ruins for?
This matter goes back to a vow that Luo once made, which was a vow that Luo would not become king. Everyone in the world knows that Luo once made a very outrageous vow to himself to become emperor.
Zhaocheng reappears in the world.
King Yu's nine tripods were unearthed from the Luo River.
The phoenix sings again in Mount Qishan.
Each of these events was more outrageous than the last, and all of them were like myths. This fully demonstrated Luo's attitude, which was that it was absolutely impossible for him to become emperor.
In fact, this is exactly the case. Without Ji Zhao's help, the Luo family really could not have done it.
But now, Ji Zhao has woken up!
————
In the seventh year of the Tang Dynasty, many farmers were exiled, and there were more than a hundred thousand workers who died in factories. However, the government ignored it, and civil unrest broke out. The momentum was like fire. Scholars criticized the government, pointed out the administrative errors and the mistakes of the clerks, hoping to save the country. The government then turned its swords inward, covering its ears and eyes, pretending to be ignorant. Isn't it the same as Li of the Han Dynasty and Yang of the Sui Dynasty? - "Records of History Since the End of the Tang Dynasty"
