Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

"For the Prime Minister, for Emperor Tianjing, and for the current Great Zhou court, are you really willing to do this?!"

Seeing Huang Cheng in a trance, Lei Ting sighed softly.

His voice was not loud, but it seemed to have magic, pouring into the depths of Huang Cheng's mind.

At this moment, Huang Cheng was stunned.

He had never thought about this question. He only knew that he was a general, defending his country and working for the court.

He didn't know whether what he was doing was right or not, nor did he know whether he should do it or not, and he didn't even understand what the point of doing it was.

But he never thought of changing his allegiance.

From childhood to adulthood, he was taught to obey the orders and arrangements of the court.

But now Lei Tong actually asked him this.

Seeing Huang Cheng hesitate, Lei Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the reason why Zhou Zheng valued Huang Cheng was not only because of Huang Cheng's ability, but more because of Huang Cheng's growing environment.

Looking across the Great Zhou, how many people can truly rise from the grassroots?!

How many people can survive after growing up?!

Huang Cheng is obviously a good choice.

Even though Huang Cheng had chosen to kowtow to the Prime Minister in order to survive and develop better, and he didn't have the traditional toughness, so what?!

He is a human being after all, a normal person.

As long as one is human, there will never be a perfect existence.

"You, what do you want to say?!"

Huang Cheng gritted his teeth, looked at Lei Tong and asked again.

He knew that Lei Tong had hidden agenda, and he also knew that Lei Tong must have different ideas.

"The more you come from the lower classes, the more you should understand how miserable the lives of the lower classes are."

"There is no hope or expectation in their lives, and there is not even a spark of light in their eyes."

"They live in this world like straw dogs, doing the hard work of cattle and horses, but they can't even make a living."

"In their lives, they have no direction to pursue, no social class to rise to, and even looking up to speak or gaze at the sky is a great luxury."

"But they weren't born to be like this!"

Lei Tong's voice trembled as he clenched his fists.

The hardships behind these words will never be felt by the aristocratic families, let alone understood.

In the eyes of the aristocratic families, the people of the world are no different from pigs and dogs. Their existence is only to serve the aristocratic families.

But, is this really how the world should be?!

Lei Tong's words were like thunder from the sky, rolling down. Every word carried a force of tens of millions of pounds, striking Lei Tong's heart fiercely.

He staggered, his face turned slightly pale, and his whole expression began to move madly.

"you tell me!"

"Are those people the lowest of the world?!"

"Or you tell me!"

"Those people, are they supposed to live like this for the rest of their lives?"

Lei Tong's questioning made Huang Cheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerate, his head was buzzing, his breathing became rapid, and even the blood in his body seemed to solidify at this moment.

His mind went blank.

Huang Cheng had never thought about this question. He had never even thought that one day someone would question him like this.

He came from the bottom of society, and he knows better than anyone how difficult life is for people at the bottom.

He understands more than anyone how difficult it is for the lower-class people to change their current situation.

Because he knew this, Huang Cheng knew deep down that he could not change it. Because he knew this, Huang Cheng understood better than anyone else that all this seemed destined.

No one can change it.

But at this moment, someone questioned him in a deafening voice, and for a moment, another voice appeared in his heart.

Yes, who stipulated that the lower class people can only live like pigs and dogs?!

"What kind of court is this now?!"

"Since ancient times, the imperial court has been controlled by aristocratic families. Under this control, all resource allocation is tilted towards the aristocratic families."

"They are greedy for pleasure, they indulge in the world's resources, they are above all things, and they regard human life as worthless!"

"But they never cared about the people at the bottom, their lives, their livelihoods, and even their future."

"Not only do they not care, they are determined not to allow anyone to change this!"

"From generation to generation, from ancient times to the present, it has always been like this!"

"Huang Cheng! General Huang! Now please tell me, are you really willing to serve a court like this?!"

"Or!"

"Have you long forgotten how you got to where you are today? Or have you long forgotten what kind of blood you have in your body? Or do you also want to become a member of a noble family?!"

Lei Tong's questioning was like the morning bell and evening drum, constantly spreading and rippling in the depths of Huang Cheng's mind.

He was pale, his expression was constantly changing, his mouth was dry, and his whole body felt uncomfortable!

"No!"

"I haven't forgotten, I've never forgotten where I came from!"

Huang Cheng responded almost in a roar.

After shouting these words, he was already sweating profusely, breathing heavily, and his whole body seemed to be drained away. He staggered and collapsed on the spot.

"You haven't forgotten where you came from, but what are you doing now?"

"Aren't you currently helping the imperial court and trying to restore the past?!"

"You haven't forgotten the path you came from, but you've never thought of letting the people take this path."

"Do you really think that just because you kneel before the Prime Minister, you can enter the aristocratic family and stand with the vested interests?!"

"Or do you think that just because you've become part of a vested interest group, you can erase your past?!"

"If you are really such a person, then I can only say!"

"I feel unworthy for His Majesty, and I also feel unworthy for Xu Meng!"

Lei Tong exhaled the foul air in his chest fiercely. He didn't say too much nonsense or give too much advice.

He knew better than anyone that the decision at this moment depended on Huang Cheng's decision.

However, when Lei Tong closed his eyes again, a hint of anxiety emerged deep in his pupils.

He knew very well that if the gunfire stopped, it would mean that Zhou Zheng's greatest reliance had lost its effect.

At this time, Zhou Zheng was probably fighting a life-and-death battle with the imperial army.

But the elite Zhenbei Army today is no longer the same as it was back then. Facing an army of 300,000, does Zhou Zheng really have a chance of winning?!

The only way to turn the situation around lies in Huang Cheng.

If Huang Cheng is really willing to turn from evil to good, then there is still a chance for everything.

Otherwise, the final result can only be left to fate.

Lei Tong may not care about his own life or death, but he doesn't want the world to become what it used to be.

If this happens, it will not only be them who will die, but also the hopes and future of the people of the world.

"Huang Cheng!"

"If I tell you that you have the opportunity to change everything, wouldn't you want to try?!"

Gritting his teeth, Lei Tong looked at Huang Cheng again and roared loudly.

"Change?"

"Can anyone really change this world?!"

"No!"

"The world has always been run this way. No one has ever been able to change it, and no one can change it."

Huang Cheng's voice trembled, and his staggering back looked a little lonely.

However, when he said this, his heart was filled with despair.

He came from the lower class, so he knows better than anyone how difficult it is to speak for the lower class people and how hard it is to do things for them.

It's not that he doesn't want to, but he knows that he can't do it.

"You can't, no one else can, but there's one person who can!"

"who!?"

"Your Majesty, Zhou Zheng!"

When Lei Tong mentioned Zhou Zheng, there was no hesitation or doubt in his voice. He had never believed in someone so firmly in his life.

Until Zhou Zheng appeared, he was more certain than anyone else that this young man had something different in his body.

“Perhaps, he hasn’t done it yet.”

"But if there is someone in this world who can change all this, then there is only one person, and that person is Zhou Zheng!"

“So, Huang Cheng!”

"You really don't want to give it a try?!"

"Not just for Xu Meng! Not just for your past self! Changing the name is for the countless people of the future Great Zhou!"
