Mystery Makes Me Strong
Chapter 2642: It is difficult to change one's nature
That day.
Wen Rensheng and others got the news.
The emperor began to take the royal children hunting.
The four immediately realized that this might be an opportunity.
After all, it is easier to get news when going out hunting than to hide in the palace.
Many assassinations happened during hunting.
They immediately followed.
The royal hunting ground is located in a large forest in the southern suburbs.
Originally, the civil officials restricted the emperor from doing this.
But after the emperor succeeded in cultivating immortals, no one could restrict him.
It is said that the previous emperor wanted to go hunting, and the chief civil official took the emperor directly to a ruined garden and said, "This is the royal hunting ground."
The emperor returned disappointed after seeing it.
The civil officials were not punished.
If it were the Qing Dynasty, they would have been punished for deceiving the emperor.
This is the nature of the civil officials who bully the weak and fear the strong.
The four came to the forest in the southern suburbs.
From a distance, there was a large fence that sparsely separated the forest from other places.
There were also wooden signs and stone tablets on it.
"The Royal Southern Hunting Ground."
"No one is allowed to hunt or chop wood here. Violators will be put to death."
"Sure enough, he is so domineering. Just because the emperor has practiced cultivation doesn't mean the people will be free." The novice man said with disdain.
The four of them quietly climbed over the fence and ambushed directly in a forest.
After an unknown amount of time, they heard a sound of blowing and beating.
That was the court music.
There were also the sounds of people and horses.
"The old emperor is coming!"
Everyone quickly looked out from the tree.
On a road, there was a team that stretched for several miles.
In front was the honor guard, on both sides were the horse teams, and in the middle was a dragon chariot.
It took sixty-four people to carry it, and the area was at least hundreds of square meters. I'm afraid there were all kinds of facilities inside.
These sixty-four people, each of them was not an ordinary person.
They had a strength of at least two or three tons.
In this way, they could carry hundreds of tons of things.
And they carried it very steadily, with human springs and human shock absorbers.
Looking closely, the curtain blocked the view.
After a while, the emperor began to give orders.
Wen Rensheng used a skill, Mirror Flower and Water Moon, to reflect the distant scene.
The emperor said a few words to a red-robed eunuch.
The other party immediately trotted to the back.
Soon, two princes on horseback dismounted and walked over.
"Meet the emperor, father."
"Well, it's sunny today, just right for hunting."
"You go hunting separately, whoever hunts more will get a big reward." The emperor said lightly.
"Yes, father."
The two princes looked at each other and smiled.
They immediately took their guards and rode into the hunting ground.
At this time.
The senior frowned, he seemed to have discovered something.
The novice man said directly: "Strange, why do I feel that the relationship between this emperor and his son is a bit hypocritical?"
"It's hypocritical, how can there be true feelings in the royal family?" The novice woman asked in confusion, "Is there a problem with this?"
"That's what I said, but I always feel that the emperor seems to be provoking the relationship between the two children, and he seems to want to suppress his own prince." The novice man said again.
"Hmph, it's nothing more than a fight. The emperor is a cultivator, so he has to be careful that his children's cultivation progress exceeds his."
"In that case, let's go with the resource-based cultivation. The emperor has the most resources, so he will naturally cultivate the fastest." The novice man said.
"Any cultivation of immortals, as long as it involves cultivation, there is a saying of understanding. What if the emperor's understanding is not as good as the prince?" The novice woman asked back.
"That means that the internal situation of this immortal dynasty is also unstable. The emperor will also be suspicious of his subordinates, but he needs the people below to provide resources. No matter how powerful he is, he has 24 hours a day, and he can't do everything himself."
"Yes, this is the contradiction. In order to let subordinates provide resources for cultivation, they have to be led into the Tao. After leading them into the Tao, there is a risk of betrayal. After all, no matter how great the immortal method is, as long as you are willing to learn and accumulate, you will slowly understand it, improve it, and innovate it." The senior sighed.
The four looked at each other, and they all felt that something was going to happen today.
Sure enough.
An hour later.
The two princes were hunting in the vast forest, and suddenly someone attacked them.
They used a kind of immortal crossbow, which was specially capable of breaking the self-guard of the immortal cultivator.
"Be careful!"
"Someone attacked!"
"Damn, who is so bold!"
The attacker came and left quickly.
Wen Rensheng was indifferent, and the three looked at each other.
"Someone actually assassinated the princes, why do I feel like this is directed and acted by the emperor himself?"
The two princes were very frightened.
Although they practiced, they were too worried, so the effect was not very good.
Of course, the most important thing is that the emperor did not give them important resources.
Don't let them practice too fast.
They were almost assassinated just now.
There are really many powerful people who have been assassinated in history.
Sun Ce is a relatively famous one.
Even the emperor of this dynasty, fire, water, and being strangled by palace maids are all real things.
This made them feel terrified.
At this time.
The emperor came to comfort the two.
"For your safety, we can't let you out again."
"And one of you has no offspring, and the other has only one."
"It's easy to have an accident."
"What about my Ming Dynasty?"
"They want to threaten me by killing you, so that I will not have any descendants!"
"Some people want to seize my kingdom in this way, and we father and son must not let them succeed."
When the prince heard it, he understood his father's hint:
This was done by other princes.
After all, their father was able to inherit the throne as a minor clan because the previous emperor had no descendants.
As a result, his cousin got a huge advantage.
As an emperor, with so many women, he couldn't give birth to a child.
Persistence makes people speechless.
Some people say it's physical reasons, some say it's court struggles, and some say it's too much doting, and lost Yuanyang early.
After hearing this, everyone said: "These damn rebels, they must be killed!"
"Your Majesty, a few years ago you said that there were demons from outside the domain, could it be them?" A senior official guessed.
"It's very likely." Prince Yu said angrily.
Wen Rensheng was speechless. He didn't do anything, but he took the blame. Who can he go to for justice?
Then the emperor achieved his goal.
After placing his two sons under house arrest in the palace, he sent a large number of imperial guards to guard them.
And he sent a widow in every three months.
A widow can give birth to a son.
It is uncertain whether a new woman can give birth to a child.
Then, starting from this day.
The emperor began to change.
He began to exploit the people again.
In order to practice better and faster, and to distance himself from others, he began to use some methods of drinking poison to quench thirst.
After watching, the four people sighed.
"It is true that it is easy to change the country, but it is difficult to change one's nature."
"Yes, it is really interesting. After practicing, everyone thought he would become better."
"But it turned out to be just a disguise."
"Yes, at the beginning he made the people better, but it was just for the fortune of the dynasty."
"Now he feels our threat, so he has once again abandoned the people of the dynasty and chosen some quick and easy methods."
At this time.
The emperor ordered the people to grow all kinds of spiritual medicines.
And these spiritual medicines can only be used by the emperor alone.
It is difficult and hard to grow ordinary crops.
Until hundreds of years later, farmers were still synonymous with poverty.
Only when they advanced to farmers could they live better. Even so, they still needed a lot of subsidies, otherwise, they could not expect to make much profit.
The people suffered terribly because of this.
And something even more terrible happened.
The emperor wanted to speed up his ascension to immortality.
And to ascend to immortality, in addition to luck, more external things were needed.
As soon as the news spread, it immediately caused an uproar.
The noble families and the common people began to feel nervous.
Sure enough, the emperor sent factory guards to collect spiritual medicines and spiritual stones from all over the place.
They were asked to hand over these resources immediately.
Only by handing over those resources could the family continue, otherwise, they would be killed.
Originally, there were no such things in this world.
But after the emperor succeeded in cultivating immortality, they began to emerge one after another.
This is a process of spiritual energy recovery.
At the beginning, the emperor still regarded the entire dynasty as his own, and was willing to resist the idea of rapid plunder and exploitation for the sake of the dynasty's luck.
He even gave some resources to others to expand his foundation and increase the labor force for cultivation.
However, facing new threats, the emperor returned to his original state again.
Including this time, he thought the princes were going to rebel, which was also a misunderstanding.
After Wen Rensheng and others disguised themselves, he could not see where the threat was.
But he could feel the threat.
He mistook it as a threat brought by the princes.
In addition, the princes did say this in private:
"If this goes on, my father will live for thousands of generations, when can I ascend the throne?"
"Is there a prince who can last for ten thousand years in the world?"
Once such words came out, the emperor naturally thought that they were colluding with the demons from outside the domain and wanted to rebel.
So after being good to the people for the first few years, the Jiajing Emperor began to return to his original form.
In the TV series, he did not change in the end, but was going to die.
Do you think he can live another forty years? Will he repent?
No.
This is the nature of this person.
Stealing the world to satisfy one person.
Using power for his own benefit, and using it on himself.
Let the people suffer, and cultivation comes first.
Wen Rensheng shook his head.
If he was not afraid of scaring off the Lord God, he could control the mysterious seed, amplify Xiaohuan, and create an illusion.
He could have exposed the emperor's true nature long ago.
And it's not too late now.
What kind of virtue is the emperor? Even if he succeeds in cultivating immortals, his own nature will remain the same, and it is impossible to change.
And at this time.
Hai Rui appeared again.
He went to write again.
"Those who cultivate immortals cultivate people."
"As long as the saints do not die, the thieves will not stop."
"If you don't cultivate people, how can you talk about cultivating immortals?"
"If the people of the dynasty are destroyed, how can the emperor survive?"
"The current emperor can only hold on for a while, but not for a lifetime."
"In this case, the immortal cultivation is in vain."
Of course, the words are not so white...
This is what he meant.
He scolded the emperor.
Originally, the emperor was furious and wanted to kill Hai Rui.
But when he saw the end, he suddenly woke up.
This is not right.
His immortal is obviously a fortune immortal, why is it like this?
Why is he so obsessed that he wants to exploit the people again?
I understand, he must be possessed by a demon.
This is the devil's doing.
Then he began to try to change himself.
But no one believed him anymore.
All forces began to think about how to get rid of the emperor...
And at this time.
Seeing the emperor like this, the four people couldn't help but start to discuss.
The novice man said: "In my opinion, this emperor is just like this."
"He is not a good thing. As long as he changes a little, as long as he doesn't need the participation of the people to cultivate immortality, he doesn't care about the lives of the people."
"Yes, even if he changes for a while, it's only temporary." The novice woman followed.
"That's the case in history. He only thought about his own immortality and even forced everyone to build palaces for him."
"Those palaces are obviously useless, but he also created a Yan D for this and made many conspiracies, fearing that others would know that he was the mastermind behind the scenes."
"As a result, everyone knows."
"The so-called power tactics have become a funny thing. People do, and God sees."
"In this case, we get rid of him, and there will be no psychological burden." The senior said.
"Yes, after this small change, we know that it is not reliable to rely on this emperor. He will not really care about the people."
"So we have to overthrow him and rebuild the new Ming Dynasty."
Everyone made a decision.
Just at this time, some people also began to contact everywhere to find a way to kill the immortals.
"It seems that heroes think alike."
"We can't let the immortals exploit all the people."
The three asked Wen Rensheng for advice.
"If you want to kill the immortals, you have to cut off the emperor's roots." Wen Rensheng said, "The emperor uses the Ming Dynasty to practice, so we cut off the dynasty's offerings to him."
"To put it bluntly, it means that more people will not recognize him as the emperor in their hearts."
"Everyone believes in him on the surface, but not in their hearts, then he is finished."
"Why can't Chongzhen command a minister in the end? It's because he repeatedly let the ministers take the blame, and everyone doesn't believe in him."
Everyone understood and took action immediately.
Their action was naturally to inform the people and gentry about this matter.
The gentry is naturally not a good thing.
But it doesn't prevent them from using one or two.
Sure enough, after these people understood, they immediately secretly told the people under their rule to stop following the emperor.
They privately said that Jiajing was dead and that the emperor of Dachang was in power now...
Good guy, these gentry were much bolder than Wen Rensheng and the others imagined.
They also couldn't stand an emperor who lived forever.
This meant that they would be exploited all the time.
In this way, the emperor's memory in the hearts of the people became more and more shallow.
There was originally a saying that the imperial power did not go to the countryside.
The local people knew the gentry more than the emperor in the distance.
When this happened, the emperor soon realized that something was wrong.
The fortune of the Ming Dynasty did not change, but he could absorb less and less.
"Damn it, who is behind this?"
He quickly deduced the world and saw that the gentry in various places were secretly telling the people to change the era name!
In fact, he didn't need to deduce it, the factory guards reported it!
"This is unbearable, a group of unruly people!"
"Catch them, kill them!"
"Deceive the heaven!"
He immediately sent people to catch them.
However, he was disappointed.
Because it was like this everywhere, and it was hard to catch them all.
The most fundamental thing was that the gentry did not stand on his side.
In the past, he had no magic skills and no cultivation, so he knew to use power tactics because he was worried about being abandoned by the gentry.
He needed reputation and legitimacy, but he was worried that if his reputation was bad, no one would recognize him as the emperor.
