Chapter 695: If I Were King (1)

The sun never sets, Pei Yuan and Long Yue are standing in front of a building under construction, watching the busy workers, Pei Yuan will occasionally come forward to help, and Long Yue will stand on the side and watch people build their own houses with their hard hands.

Before the sun never sets, Long Yue was a pampered prince, receiving the most orthodox royal education, he stayed up all night ancient and modern history, knowing how the emperors of the Longxuan Empire in the past dynasties controlled the country, and also knew how to control the courtiers and balance the power.

But now it was the first time that he had such close contact with the people at the bottom of the Longxuan Empire, and these people and things that he would not even hear about on a daily basis were now being staged around him.

"National teacher, people who never set the sun are not as barbaric as my father said, they are very polite and kind." In the two months of contact with Long Yue, he slowly fell in love with this group of ordinary civilians, they would not flatter him, nor would they blindly obey him, but they cared about his life very much.

Every evening, after the people were busy, this group of people would gather together to rest and chat, and from their mouths, Long Yue heard a lot of folk drives, and also heard a lot about the adventures of mercenaries.

He gradually forgot who he was, and began to laugh with the people here like a normal child, and even the ugly demons would carefully back down when they passed by him, as if they also knew that this new guest could not fully accept them as demons.

However, neither the people nor the demons here harmed Long Yue and Pei Yuan in the slightest.

Watching the demons constantly carry all kinds of materials to various places in the city, Long Yue slowly learned to take it for granted from his initial fear.

He also thought these goofy demons were cute.

"Savage? Commoners are never barbaric, they are very forbearing, and they are afraid of imperial power, Your Highness, your teacher and His Majesty the Emperor may not know these ordinary people, in fact, they are very simple, as long as they have food and drink, they can be satisfied, they have no ambition, nor have any scheming, they are busy every day but happy. Pei Yuan's eyes are very soft, his own birth is not noble, and his current status is that he relies on his own strength step by step, compared to the royal family, Pei Yuan knows these ordinary people better, and he knows that the imperial education that Dao Longyue received is deficient in some places.

But the sun never sets, but it gradually fills these deficiencies.

Regarding this, Pei Yuan didn't know whether Lu Dao was good or bad, although Shen Yanxiao restricted their freedom, but he gave Long Yue an excellent opportunity to experience the days with ordinary people and live with his future citygoers up close.

The kings of the past dynasties were ruthless, even the current emperors, when deciding certain things, they would ignore the existence of the people, Pei Yuan had persuaded many times, but it was always fruitless.

Looking at the change in Long Yue's mentality, Pei Yuan's heart was still happy.

"But my father always told me that the common people were rude, that they were greedy and lazy, and that they were rude, and that I had believed my father's words, but I had some doubts during this time. Pei Yuan, do you say that the civilians of the Longxuan Empire are as cute as the people in the sunset? Long Yue is not yet an adult, and his mind is still a little ignorant.

"Same." Pei Yuan said with a smile.
