I want to ruin the country

After they realized what was happening, they all fell to their knees.

"Meet the Emperor!"

"Hurray!"

"See Your Majesty!"

Yining asked everyone to stand up and called the woman over.

"Sister-in-law, I'll fill your bowl with rice!"

The woman's eyes were filled with tears and she was so excited that she didn't know what to say. Yi Guofang took her bowl and filled it up for her.

Yining Road,

"First, feed the child. When we're done, I'll find a place for you!"

The woman held her son in one hand, and asked her eldest son to kneel down with her, crying and saying,

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you for saving my life!"

Yining quickly helped her up and said,

"Sister-in-law, go to the reed shed and feed the child. Wait there after he finishes eating!"

Cheng Weigao, Inspector Liu and the soldiers lying on the ground were all stunned!

I am the emperor's soldier. Being beaten by the emperor today is a small matter. I am afraid that my head will be in danger!

Cheng Weigao quickly struggled and lay on the ground begging for mercy.

"Your Majesty, this humble official deserves death, this humble official deserves death!"

Yining ignored him.

These soldiers also prostrated themselves on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, please spare my life! Your Majesty, please have mercy!"

Yining cursed with gnashing teeth,

"You bastards who are just taking advantage of others' power! They can't even afford to eat, and you still have the heart to bully them. Are you the ones who raised them?"

They were beaten and the free porridge was stopped, Yining said,

"I won't chop you down yet. Hurry back and serve more porridge. If it's gone, make more for me. If any of these people aren't full, I'll skin you alive!"

When the soldiers heard that they could survive, they didn't care about the pain in their bodies and got up in a hurry to cook porridge.

The common people around here still really believe that it is the emperor who has come. The emperor has indeed not forgotten the people. For the sake of the people, he even beat those soldiers who relied on the power of others. The emperor is a good emperor!

All of a sudden they knelt down and shouted,

"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"

Yining said quickly,

"Fellow villagers, please stand up! The imperial court has caused you all to suffer. I apologize to you!"

As he said this, he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to the people.

The common people cried.

"Your Majesty, you can't do this! It will shorten our lives!"

Yining also cried,

"I'm sorry for you!"

"Your Majesty, we don't blame you. It's a natural disaster!"

"We know the Emperor is thinking of us!"

"Your Majesty, please stand up! How can a king kowtow to the common people?"

Yining cried out in tears,

"Without the crops you grow, I would starve to death. Without your spinning and weaving, I would be naked! The people are the heaven, the emperor is the son. As the Son of Heaven, what's wrong with a son kneeling before his parents?"

The common people also burst into tears. It was the first time in thousands of years that they heard the emperor give such an explanation.

Yining stood up,

"Everyone get up, everyone get up, we must make sure everyone has enough to eat today!"

The people all stood up and lined up in front of each table.

Yining walked to a pot and stood there, motionless.

Several soldiers also cried. The emperor could kneel down to the common people, but they beat and scolded the common people. Are they still human beings?

The porridge in the pot was quickly served, and the soldiers quickly washed the pot, added water, and continued to cook the porridge.

It was dark and I couldn't see anything. The Iraqi defense ordered,

"Light the torches!"

After a while, dozens of pine oil torches were lit, illuminating the area around the soup kitchen and illuminating the emperor's resolute face.

Gradually the wind grew stronger and a drizzle began to fall from the sky.

The slanting wind and drizzle hit Yining's body. Soon, water droplets gathered on his face and eyebrows, and his body was also a little wet.

Yi Fangfang saw it and felt pain in his heart. He came over and said cautiously,

"It's raining, Your Majesty, go back, your health is more important!"

Yining glanced at him and said nothing.

"Your Majesty, please go back. I will be watching here. If anything goes wrong, you can chop off my head!"

Yining not only didn't say a word, he didn't even look at him again.

Yi Fangfang felt a deep chill. He knew that if he continued to speak, it would probably anger the emperor. However, he was really distressed and said with courage,

"Your Majesty, I'm all wet. If anything goes wrong with you, I'll never forgive you!"

Yining uttered a word from between his teeth.

"roll!"

Iraqi defense retreated to the second best and said,

"Why don't you go inside the reed shed? It's warmer there."

Yining pointed at the people queuing in the wind and rain and said coldly,

"If you want to go, go ahead. Can we put them in the reed shed?"

Seeing the emperor's resolute expression, Yi Guofang didn't dare to persuade him anymore. He had to go find a straw raincoat to put on the emperor. Yining shook his shoulders and the raincoat fell off.

Yi Fangfang had no choice but to find another umbrella and hold it over the emperor's head.

Yining gave him an angry look that chilled him to the bone.

"Can you find an umbrella for each of them?"

Of course Yi Fangfang couldn't do that, so he had to throw his umbrella aside and accompany the emperor in the rain, tears streaming down his eyes.

When the common people and soldiers saw this scene, they didn’t know what to feel. The emperor accompanied the common people in the rain. It was an unprecedented story!

Someone started shouting,

"Your Majesty, please go back. We know you love us, and your health is the most important thing!"

"Go back, Your Majesty, and don't get gonorrhea!"

Yining shouted loudly,

"Fellow villagers, if even one person doesn't have enough to eat today, I won't leave!"

Sai Shang'a came, Shuntian Prefecture Governor Eltai came, Du Shoutian came, and all the other ministers came.

When they saw the emperor standing like a statue in the wind and rain, they immediately understood that the emperor's anger could no longer be expressed in words!

Without saying a word, they knelt in the wind and rain. It wasn't long before they were soaked.

The emperor did not move or shout, so everyone could only kneel in the mud.

There was no other sound at the scene except the sound of wind and rain and the crackling sound of the blazing flames in the stove drying the wet firewood. Even the children kept their mouths shut and didn't say a word.

The porridge was cooked in a dull and depressing atmosphere, and the people began to serve the porridge one by one, one after another, and each person had a big bowl.

Without exception, every commoner came before the emperor with a bowl in hand, said nothing, knelt down and kowtowed, and then left crying!

The drizzle turned into light rain, and Yining let the rain slide down his cheeks without even wiping it off!

Yi Fangfang stayed by his side silently, and the rain and tears flowed down!

The wind picked up. It was the first rain of spring, blowing on my wet clothes and making me feel particularly cold.

Yi Fangfang really had no other choice but to call several of his disciples over and surround the emperor to block some of the wind.

This time Yining did not scold Yifangfang, he understood their feelings.

The porridge was soon finished, but there was no ordinary people around.

The emperor said that if someone doesn’t eat enough today, he won’t leave!

The people felt distressed. They saw the tears and self-blame in the emperor's eyes. They would rather starve to death today than wait for the next pot of porridge.
