Naturally, it would be easier for General Pei and the South Vietnamese army to be surrounded and suppressed by Dongxiang's army with all its strength.
When the war between Dongxiang Kingdom and Nanyue in the east really broke out, King Li had more time to lead his troops into the capital. While the soldiers in the barracks were fighting in Dongxiang, he directly took over the imperial city and proclaimed himself emperor.
Although both King Li and King Cheng seemed to be at a disadvantage, King Li was in a much better position than King Cheng. This was all thanks to Ji Feng, the leader of the Dark Night. If he hadn't informed King Li, who knows how much his power would have been lost!
But his perfect move had gone awry. How could Ling Mingying not be agitated?
Liuzi and Xiaojiu were capable servants in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and were very skilled at these tasks. Liuzi was responsible for contacting his fellow scoundrels to stir up trouble, while Xiaojiu was responsible for gathering people to incite the families of the 224 officials.
They were used to doing these things, but they were suddenly caught. This was definitely bad news.
"Master, I don't know how the people in the capital were bewitched by Qian Yeming. Liuzi and Xiaojiu were originally moving smoothly, and they had gathered the manpower. The families of the 224 families were also incited. But after such a large group of people ran to the streets to spread the news that Qian Yeming was a tyrant, those people..."
"But what?" Ling Mingying asked gritting his teeth.
"Those people beat up those who called Qian Yeming a tyrant. Not a single one was left unbeaten, even the families and servants of those 224 people were beaten directly."
Ling Mingying screamed as if she were listening to a myth: "Why did those people beat them? They are the victims!"
"I don't know either! The people said they were spreading rumors and deliberately slandering the emperor. The emperor is such a good man, they shouldn't be allowed to slander him. Then, without waiting for anyone to explain, they labeled them as Murong Qingyu's accomplices and beat them up. Some were even beaten to death!"
"..." Ling Mingying's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly remembered what Qian Yeming said to the people when he appeared at the Meridian Gate yesterday afternoon.
At that time, the soldiers were about to drive the people away, but Qian Yeming appeared. Not only did he let the people vent their anger, he also welcomed them to vent their anger there for a long time. If the ground was dirty, they would just sweep it. If there was too much garbage, they would just use the garbage truck to transport it out of the city and dump it. He also had a heart-to-heart talk with the people.
Starting from yesterday afternoon, instead of rioting because Murong Qingyu killed their relatives, the people of the entire capital began to spontaneously organize order, making the entire capital orderly.
At that time, he only thought that Qian Yeming was cunning. By saying that, he could not only appease the public anger, but also use millions of people to make Murong Qingyu suffer torture and destruction without dying.
But after the housekeeper told him today, he suddenly realized what was going on and instantly collapsed in his chair.
Having served in the government for decades, he was well versed in the ways of the government. For him, all he cared about was exploitation and victory. However, Qian Yeming was a true leader. He understood people's hearts and could exploit them appropriately.
As an emperor who is high above all others in a country, he is close to the people, loves the people, is concerned about the people's concerns, thinks about what the people think, and can turn the people's anger and resentment into his own anger and resentment. For such a monarch, even if he is a tyrant, his people will stand on his side.
You say he is a tyrant, right?
