Grief and indignation, but there was nothing to do, but to watch as the Mo army outside the inner city began to assemble and prepare for an attack, and the people were organized to transport firewood, grass or earth and stones to this side.

This further confirms his reasoning.

In the places where Jianghan in Chu is close to Baguo, the people of those local villages and communities are much more miserable than here, they don't eat as much as here, they don't wear as much as they do here, they don't use as well as here, and they have to bear the labor of being requisitioned to go to the copper mines to mine, but the people of the villages or cities there are the most stable.

The life of the people of Shangcai is much better than that of other places where there has been no change, but now looking at these people, they are the most unstable, and they can be organized by the Mo family to make it difficult for the county magistrate.

However, there was no time for him to change or realize his ambitions.

He knew that the fate of being captured by the Mo family would be endless insults and miserable.

They may be arranged to work in the mines, and after the work, they may be divided into hundreds of acres of wasteland, and the Mo family's insult to the nobles is to let them engage in the most despised lowly jobs of the nobles, such as farming and mining.

Or they would be sent to ships with seeds and farming tools, and those trading in the South China Sea might choose an estuary or something like to drop the exiled nobles on their voyages.

After King Wu was defeated, there were still Song and Korea after Yin Shang was destroyed; Gou Jian destroyed Wu, and returned the hundred households and fiefs to King Wu; Chu annihilated all the countries, counties and countries coexisted, and there were still sacrifices.

But the Mo family let the nobles become excellent musicians, farmers and craftsmen, and exiled outside Kyushu, no matter which one is a kind of unethical and immoral.

He knew that he could not be defeated, and he knew that he did not want to be captured, so he thought of suicide.

Looking at the few cronies and slaves around him, he wanted to say something, but finally said: "I am anti-Moxi, not because I infringed on my interests as the Mo family propagated, I am not for profit, I am anti-Mo for the sake of righteousness." ”

"The world shouldn't be what the Mo family says. The noble should be expensive, and the cheap should be cheap, otherwise, the world will be in chaos. ”

"The farmer wants to be a scholar, the scholar wants to be a doctor, and the doctor wants to be a secretary...... Ambition is overflowing, how many people will die in this? ”

"In the past world of etiquette, the patriarchal hierarchy was clear, the monarchs were wise and virtuous, and the people were happy to do their own business, how could there have been chaos?"

The servant didn't know how to answer, Shang Cai Gong sighed for a long time, made up his mind, and said to the people around him: "After I die, you can surrender." Gouge out my eyes, and if you have the chance, bury him in Pengcheng. I'm going to see how the Mo family perished! If they do not die, I want to see if the people of this world will regret it in the future if they choose equality but not dignity and order. ”

"If the Mo family is equal in the world, I will curse Kyushu with my eyes to flow like a river of blood and cleanse those ignorant fools."

After that, he wanted to draw his sword and kill himself, but the soldier next to him was suddenly at a loss.

I don't know if Shang Cai Gong is pretending to die or really dying.

If you really want to die, then you shouldn't stop it, how can the nobles be afraid of death?

At this time, as a county prince, he could not pacify the Mo family and restore the country, and he could not come up with the means to govern the country to make a country strong and prosperous.

There is no way to live, so the easiest thing to die is to die, not to mention a lot of humiliation, and you can also wash away your own incompetence.

Death is an excellent option, and there is no better choice.

If so, it should not be stopped.

But if you pretend to die, if you don't stretch out your hand to stop it, it will be quite embarrassing at that time.

In case he said so much, he still didn't want to die, but he just hoped that the people around him could know his words and deeds, and then persuade him not to die, then he had to be persuaded.

When the crowd didn't know what to do, a soldier who really didn't want the county prince to die stepped forward and held down the sword that had been raised and was about to kill himself.

The scholar thought to himself, Gongzi was desperate, and if it was normal dissuasion at this time, he was afraid that it would be useless.

The only way to do this is to find another way to provoke him not to ask for death.

Shangcai County Gong felt that his hand was being held by the scholars, and shouted: "I am desperate." Do you want me to be humiliated as a slut? ”

The scholar said loudly: "If the son dies at this time, will he not be humiliated?" Such an insult to the dead, did the Mo family do less? ”

"According to the Mo family, death will not solve any problems. Unless it is certain that it cannot be solved to fight to the death, death is a kind of cowardice. ”

"The Mo family will say that the thirty years of self-cultivation in Si have given you princes and nobles a chance for thirty years, but you princes and nobles are useless."

"Thirty years ago, there were only a few hundred people in the Mo family."

"In thirty years, Wu couldn't command soldiers to pacify these hundreds of people, but let these hundreds of people grow to the land of Sanzhou, and the warriors were incompetent."

"In the past 30 years, the government has not been able to convince the people of the country, but the people are resentful and the nobles are incompetent."

"The same goes for you."

"The Mo family will say, even if the righteousness is different and the Tao is different, even if you princes and nobles don't want to benefit the world, what have you done according to your righteousness?"

"You were born into a nobleman, if you have talent, according to your righteousness, have you stabilized the patriarchal system for so many years? No, you didn't. ”

"For so many years, have you ever given the Chu State a military force that can rival the Mo family? No, you still haven't done it. ”

"I haven't done anything for so many years, and when I was surrounded by war, I committed suicide, what is this not waste? If you never had the opportunity, your suicide is the only thing you can do for the sake of justice, and it is understandable; But obviously for decades, you haven't done anything, and then you commit suicide to get a good reputation, the Mo family will laugh and scold you, point to your bones and say, look, the princes and nobles are all waste......"

When he said this, his original intention was to arouse the mind of the county magistrate, so that he would not die, but leave a useful body, and he could always do something in the future.

The heavy words that should be said have been said, and it is immediately necessary to turn around and let them survive first.

But what he said, every sentence was inserted in the heart of Shangcai County Gong, and the lie that he had hidden in his heart for all these years to deceive himself and make himself believe that he was capable and talented was punctured at this moment.

For thirty years, these nobles did nothing.

was suppressed by the king of Chu for twenty years, and it was easy to survive until the death of the king of Chu, and he was beaten miserably by the Mo family, if this is not incompetent, what is it?

One of the reasons why the Mo family said that the noble and the noble are not always cheap is that they are saying that the nobles of Shiqing are all waste, and they can't fight the royal power in internal battles and can't beat the Mo family in external wars, which is a group of silverfish.

These heart-piercing words made Shang Cai Gong look upright, his face was vermilion, and he shouted: "The vertical son dares to insult me!" Isn't it an adulteration with the Mo family? ”

With that, he kicked the scholar away, drew his short sword and plunged it into the heart of the scholar.

The scholar died immediately, and Shang Cai Gong also returned his sword to kill himself, his eyes wide with anger.

After a few people next to him confirmed that Shang Cai Gong was dead, they glanced at each other, but did not gouge out their eyes.

Everyone has their own thoughts, but they also say it.

Someone finally broke the silence and coughed lightly: "The Mo family is about to attack the inner city." The head of the house is dead, and he asked us to gouge out our eyes and bury them in Pengcheng......"

"But if the words he said are revealed, the person who buries his eyes will suffer disaster, the Mo family will not forgive, and the people will be angry."

"This ......"

This meaning is also very clear, it is said that the master-slave relationship has been divided for so many years, and it is not incomprehensible to tell them to learn from Wu Zixu before he died.

However, who knows if anyone will report it after they bury their eyes?

It is not a sin to bury one's eyes, but a curse to bury one's eyes, if it is preached, woe will surely befall those who bury their eyes. Although the Mo family does not believe in the method of witch blessings, if the people hear about it, everyone will not have good fruit to eat.

They are not high-ranking nobles, like they only need to surrender, at most they will study labor re-education for a few years and recover the land, but they will distribute land elsewhere, although it is worse than before, but the gap is not as big as that of the nobles.

Some of them have fiefdoms, some of them are taxis who have no fiefs, and the other part are domestic slaves and slaves, and they all have some skills, as long as they don't die, there will always be opportunities in the future.

In the past, they could always serve others by virtue of their abilities.

There are many nobles who raise scholars, and the fiefs of the nobles must always be managed, and the war also needs to have an elite under them to fight.

However, the Mo family's set of things makes them useless within the Mo family.

The army of the Mo family is not a combination of chariots, slaves, slaves, elites, and conscripted peasant soldiers.

The Mohist rule was not divided into feudalism, and the aristocracy relied on scholars and scholars to maintain the system.

As soon as the gunpowder and military formation came out, the samurai skills that had been practiced for more than ten years were useless.

As soon as writing and printing technology came out, the literate population in Sishang increased dramatically, and what they learned was not the same system as Sishang, so they could not be developed.

In addition, after the Mo family caught them, they were all sent to labor reform, and they were also extremely opposed to the Mo family.

However, in this situation, you can't escape, you can't escape, you can't run away, you still have to live.

Nowadays everyone can report someone else, and it's impossible for everyone to really want to take that risk.

After several people questioned each other, someone finally said: "The master has a life, and he shouldn't have disobeyed." However, those who are scholars should obey righteousness and not kings. Before the master died, he wanted Kyushu to flow a river of blood, which was inconsistent with righteousness, and this thing should not be done. ”

He found a reason to obey the righteous and not obey the king, and the rest of the people were overjoyed in their hearts, and hurriedly said: "It should be so." ”

Thinking about it again, it is meaningless to resist stubbornly, and if you surrender, you can also use the reason of "not being able to bear the benevolence of the soldiers who are killed and wounded" to strive for leniency, so several people discussed it and unified the caliber.

said that before the county prince committed suicide, he had to tell the Mo family that he didn't do it for the sake of righteousness.

He also said that before the death of the county magistrate, they were not allowed to die, but let them fight to the end, and they couldn't bear to be killed or injured, and they were all from Kyushu, so Kaejo surrendered.

This was beneficial to everyone present, and after unifying their voices, they immediately raised the white flag and announced their surrender.

The locals in the inner city have already run away, and the remaining core people who have not run are in the interests, and after surrendering, those words were recorded as a basis for judging whether the years of labor reform will be lenient in the future.
