The flatterers and the emperor (24) are all your father’s fault!



Seeing Gong Chenliang standing in a daze, no one knew where his mind was wandering.

Luo Junchuan frowned: "Gong Chenliang! Did you hear everything I said? Answer me!"

"I heard it... why are you speaking so loudly..." Gong Chenliang resisted weakly.

"If you want to speak, just speak out loud! How can you be so timid as to want to be an emperor!" Looking at the timid Gong Chenliang, Luo Junchuan was so angry.

"Nothing, I want to give the food to that old lady."

Gong Chenliang didn't dare to confront Luo Junchuan directly, so he picked up the food and ran away in shame.

Luo Junchuan looked at the small figure running away quickly, smiled dotingly, shook his head, and continued with the work at hand.

By the time the old lady had prepared the meal, Luo Junchuan's repair attack was almost complete.

He frowned as he looked at the quilt he had only one: It seems that I have to make do with it for another night, and I must buy a bed and a quilt tomorrow.

When he arrived at the old lady's place, Luo Junchuan was holding a bowl and looking at the food in the bowl with salivating eyes.

In fact, he didn't eat properly along the way, so Gong Chenliang was so hungry that he felt like his chest was sticking to his back.

The food cooked by this old lady looked delicious, and the lingering aroma made Gong Chenliang swallow his saliva.

He knew that it was not easy for Luo Junchuan to clean the house, so he was considerate enough to endure his hunger and sat there with a small bowl, waiting for him silently.

The old lady didn't want to disturb them while they were eating, so she found another place to eat.

Luo Junchuan, who was a little bit of a germaphobe, did not organize the old lady to cook, but just thought in his heart that he would give the old lady some more compensation when he left.

Finally, Luo Junchuan arrived. Gong Chenliang's eyes lit up like a puppy seeing a bone.

He swallowed again and called Luo Junchuan: "Come quickly, let's eat together."

"From now on, if you're hungry, just eat first. You don't have to wait for me. You're the emperor. You don't have to wait for anyone unless you're willing."

Looking at his cute appearance, Luo Junchuan naturally knew that he was extremely hungry along the way.

This little creditor was indeed a little creditor. After eating his meal once, he never ate again and even said that he was not hungry.

He felt that the food he cooked was quite delicious and not bad. Who knew that this little creditor was so difficult to serve?

Now you know you’re hungry, right?

(It’s the same with Moubai’s cooking. It tastes good to me, but no one in my family wants to eat the food I cook except me…

Until one day, I ate the food I cooked myself again... and gave myself gastroenteritis... Damn!!!)

Gong Chenliang didn't answer him, but picked up the bowl and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hey, Little Debtor... Little Emperor, cough," Luo Junchuan wiped his nose. Fortunately, fortunately, he was quick to react, otherwise he would have almost called out the little debtor's nickname. "Little Emperor, why do you think this old lady is living in such a tight financial situation? If it were you, how would you solve it?"

"Why is she so poor? How should I know? I'm not a worm in her stomach, how can I know it so clearly!" Gong Chenliang still had food in his mouth and retorted vaguely.

"Swallow your food before you speak! I know you don't know her situation. But this is your country. You have to learn to combine her actual situation with your country's policies to guess what's going on!"

"I……"

"What do you mean by "I"? Just say it boldly. It's okay if I'm wrong! And you have to be brave enough to make mistakes and learn from them! Got it?!"

"knew……"

"Louder! Haven't you eaten yet?!"

"knew!!!"

"Now that you know, start analyzing." Luo Junchuan knocked on the table impatiently: "Let me see how much you know about your country."

Gong Chenliang felt a little nervous when Luo Junchuan looked at him. "This grandmother has no male children in her family, and she's old, so she can't make money. She can only live off her savings..."

Gong Chenliang's voice gradually became lower, and at the end he glanced at Luo Junchuan.

"That's it?"

"That's it."

"No more?"

"Ah, it's gone."

"Forget it, forget it. Go down and ask that old lady why she's having such a hard time. Tell me again when you come back. I want to hear your opinion on this matter, and whether you have any ideas about changing this country's system."

After hearing Luo Junchuan's words, Gong Chenliang didn't dare to disobey and could only quickly put the rice into his mouth: "I understand."

After dinner, Gong Chenliang really did as Luo Junchuan said and went to the old lady to inquire about the news.

After finding out the news, Gong Chenliang returned to his and Luo Junchuan's house in a daze.

Luo Junchuan, who was lying on the bed reading a book, saw his little creditor coming back in a daze, and he knew that the little creditor probably knew something.

"Are you back?" Luo Junchuan's eyes curled up slightly, but he didn't give Gong Chenliang any look.

"I'm back."

"When you come back, tell me why that old lady is in such a poor state now?"

"She..." Thinking of the things he had heard, Gong Chenliang felt like a huge stone was blocking his heart, heavy. "She was originally the daughter of a wealthy family, and later married her husband. A high-ranking official was attracted by her beauty. Her husband accidentally injured an official during a rebellion, and then he was beheaded on a pretext. After that, the official lost interest in her, but hated her because of her husband's affairs. He looked for provocations everywhere, and actually made her parents squander all their wealth to protect her. And she ended up in this situation."

When Luo Junchuan saw the extraordinary temperament of the old lady, he wondered if there was any story behind her.

But he didn't know that the story behind it was so heavy.

This was the ancient times. If you were wronged, you had no place to complain. The officials at the top had absolute power and the people below were living in misery.

Luo Junchuan suddenly missed the world where everyone was equal.

"Then what do you think is the source of her misery? That official?" Luo Junchuan asked Gong Chenliang, who had a sad face.

Gong Chenliang nodded: "I think it's all because of that high official being too shameless. He actually doesn't take the law seriously."

"Oh, you think it's that official. But... why do I feel like it's because of your father?"

"My father? How is that possible! What does this have to do with him!!" Gong Chenliang asked in disbelief.

"Do you think that official was just an exception? Under your father's administration, it has become a very common occurrence. Therefore, the root cause is that your father's policy of governing the country is wrong!"
