As an official, what's wrong with raising a few monsters?

Chapter 95 Mingchen, are you from the Blood Clothes Army?

"Report!"

"Luoli City is in chaos. The people are rebelling and attacking the county government office. Please help, sir..."

The delegation did not move fast and it was already noon.

Suddenly, a fast horse came running from behind and reported urgently.

"Ok?"

Dong Jingming in the carriage couldn't help but frown when he heard this.

They were imperial envoys sent to Beilie, not to deal with these messy trivial matters.

It was just a meal, and the old man really thought he had established a connection with him?

"I understand. You can go back."

He stretched his arm out of the carriage and waved gently, signaling the other party to leave.

The current situation in the world is so chaotic that there are so many places. We should ask the provincial governor to take care of it. Why should we ask a passing Minister of Rites like him?
"Forehead……"

The man took a look at the convoy, finally stopped, turned around and left.

The simple report did not seem to bring any changes to the team, and they continued to move forward as usual.

only……

At the end of the team, a beautiful woman on horseback seemed to have heard something unbelievable. She suddenly raised her head and looked to her side.

Mingchen...

"Squeak~"

After yesterday night, Mingchen was the same as usual, with no changes.

He rode on a horse and moved forward with the main force, not caring about what he had done or what the results would be.

The little white bird landed on his shoulder and never fell down despite the bumpy ride.

He seemed to be looking at something in his hand, not paying attention to Xiao Xinyue's gaze, and didn't care at all about the person who had just come to report.

It seemed like everything had nothing to do with him.

"Mingchen, this..."

Others may not know, but Xiao Xinyue knows very well what happened.

She saw what Mingchen did and heard what he said.

It was really shocking that something like this happened just after I left.

The people rebelled, the mob attacked the county government office, and the city was in chaos...

Who could have predicted that the cause of all this was this young man who stayed for one night and left the next day.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Mingchen raised his eyebrows and asked the other party as if nothing had happened.

Xiao Xinyue licked her dry lips and asked, "How did you do that?"

She now gradually understood why Mingchen said those words to her last night.

It seems... he really has the ability to achieve it.

Just by walking around the city, finding a few people, and talking to them, everything was different.

She thought she thought highly enough of this playboy, but now it seems that she still underestimated him.

He seemed to have the power to change the world.

"How did you do it?"

The two of them spoke like riddlers, and others had no idea what they were saying.

Mingchen shrugged: "I didn't do it. This is what would have happened anyway."

"I just said a few words, lit the fire, gave them a reason, and pushed them forward."

Mingchen didn't actually do anything. He just picked a few people in the city and told them a few things.

First, today a high-ranking official from the capital is inspecting the county yamen to investigate the county magistrate for corruption. There will be a generous reward for catching the county magistrate.

This statement was full of loopholes, but people saw it during the day, and it was indeed a high-ranking official who had arrived. People at the lower levels had limited knowledge and couldn't tell what the problem was.

The information they received was that the magistrate was no longer a magistrate and he no longer had any power.

Second, the county magistrate has food, so if you want to survive, go and rob it.

Third, the uprising will start tomorrow and the whole city will be notified. The law does not punish the masses, and unity is strength.

……

It doesn’t matter whether Mingchen’s words are true or false, and it doesn’t matter whether the people believe them or not. They don’t have many choices. Either continue to live in a daze or try to resist.

This is not something that will succeed 100%, and Mingchen himself is not sure.

His original intention was actually to tell Xiao Xinyue what he was saying so that she could learn and grow.

Life will always find a way to survive.

Even if Mingchen doesn't speak, even if it doesn't work now, in ten days, in a month, in a year...

There will always be a second tomorrow when the masses will shout loudly, rise up in rebellion, smash the tall plaque of the county government office, and lead people to fight for food to survive.

This was forced by the environment, not created by him.

But now it seems that his words are quite effective.

"Your Highness, think about this: how did the Blood-Cloaked Army start this rebellion?"

Peasant uprisings are almost all like this. When all the reasons come down to one thing, it is nothing more than the struggle to survive.

The Blood-Cloaked Army, hundreds of thousands of troops gathered in the south,

Blood stained their armor, heroic souls forged peace. They were a group of terrorists who didn't care about their own lives. The people of the capital were terrified when they heard about them. They were evil villains plotting to usurp the throne.

However, now, Princess Xiao Xinyue didn't seem to feel anything when she heard it.

She felt that her eyes were being opened little by little, and she began to look at the world anew.

If Qian Yuan's world was stable, why would these people rise up in rebellion and wear blood-stained armor?
She lowered her eyes and asked again, "What will be their fate?"

Mingchen thought for a moment and said, "If someone takes a fancy to them, gathers them together, and leads them in a rebellion, they will most likely be suppressed by the imperial court."

"If they only rebelled once and everyone went home without continuing to rebel, we'll see how the governor handles it. He might arrest a few people and punish them as examples, or he might appease them and send someone else to manage the situation after a while."

Xiao Xinyue nodded. What Mingchen said was similar to what she had guessed.

She let out a breath, glanced around, and then looked straight at Mingchen's face. As if she had made up her mind, she lowered her voice and asked, "Mingchen, are you from the Blood Clothes Army?"

Mingchen doesn't look like a loyal court official at all.

"what?"

"What Blood-Cloaked Army!"

"How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air~"

Mingchen raised his head abruptly upon hearing this, and said to Xiao Xinyue with a serious face: "Your Highness, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want~"

"Chen's loyalty is known to heaven and earth, and witnessed by the sun and the moon!"

"I am a minister of Qianyuan in life and a ghost of Qianyuan in death. How could I be that blood-robed traitor? Your Highness, please do not defile me~"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xinyue couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

You better be!

Regardless of whether they are the Blood-Cloaked Army or not, listen to what you say, do you believe it?

If she believed this man's lies, she would be a fool.

How many of the words this man says can be believed?

Even if he is not from the Blood-Clothed Army, he is not a good guy!
Seeing that she didn't believe him, Mingchen couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "Alas~"

People's hearts are too cold~
He is so sincere, why don’t you want to believe him?
Mingchen shrugged, said nothing more, and just looked at the palm of his hand.

There is still something to gain from traveling.

As far as his eyes could see, a tiny thing was caught in his palm, struggling and making a series of squeaking sounds.

But when she saw the bird on Mingchen's shoulder, she instantly wilted again.
