Tian's little cook

Chapter 772

As soon as Lin Zhimo finished speaking, the other three people in the room were stunned.

Having been with Lin Zhimo for so long, Huangfu first understood her temper.She is usually kind and always smiles when she talks to anyone.

But once someone provokes her, Lin Zhimo will speak back unceremoniously with sharp teeth.

But it was also the first time for Huangfu Chu to hear Lin Zhimo utter such powerful words to protect the common people on the border.

Although she said it to Feng Keqing, Huangfu Chu felt ashamed.

He remembered that some time ago, in order to win food, grass and troops for the Northwest, he had said similar things, reprimanding other officials for their inaction.

But just now, for the sake of his successful ascension to the throne, he hesitated and considered Feng Keqing's suggestion.

As a prince, he enjoyed the admiration of all the people, but he almost ignored the lives of some people, which made him blame himself.

Jing Hong hadn't spoken since he entered the room, but he felt that Lin Zhimo's words were more reasonable than Feng Keqing's.

He was born in a poor family and has come to this day through hard work and luck, but he has not forgotten the hardships he has suffered before.

The lives of the people at the bottom are the least valuable, and are often at the ruler's whim.

But even if they are ants, they still steal their lives. As a human being, who doesn't want to live?

Do those border people have to become victims?
Jing Hong glanced at Lin Zhimo, and his admiration for her increased a little.

Lin Zhimo was the smartest, most general, and the kindest girl he had ever met.In the past, he had thought that Lin Zhimo was a commoner in obsession, and his identity was too different from His Highness, so it might be very difficult to become a concubine in the future.

But now, Jinghong believes without doubt that only Lin Zhimo can match His Highness.

Among the three, Feng Keqing was the most embarrassing.

Lin Zhimo mercilessly exposed his purpose in just a few words.

Feng Keqing's lifelong mission is to assist Huangfu to ascend the throne and become a wise king of a generation, so that he can leave a strong mark in the history books.

"Miss Lin, what you said makes sense, but it doesn't explain everything." Seeing that the expression on Huangfuchu's face had changed, Feng Keqing probably heard Lin Zhimo's words, and hurriedly defended himself.

"Whether it's a battle for the throne or a revolution, there will be gains and losses." Feng Keqing stroked his beard, "This time His Highness will not go to the northwest, maybe some ordinary people will be sacrificed. But if you think about it from another angle, if you let Huangfurui be Your Majesty, with what he is doing now, everyone knows that he will not be a good emperor, and even become a tyrant."

Feng Keqing said excitedly, "At that time, the number of people who died because of Huang Furui will only be quite a few. Your Highness's temporary patience now will save the lives of more people, even the entire Dasheng Dynasty!"

Regarding this, Lin Zhimo just smiled coldly, "Unreasonable."

Feng Keqing didn't hear her approval, but was choked up, "Miss Lin, wouldn't it be more cost-effective to exchange less for more?"

"Mr. Feng, what we are talking about is not about things, but about lives!" Lin Zhimo stared straight at him with full aura, "Even if, as you said, we exchanged 10 lives for 100 million life, but those one hundred thousand ordinary people are also human beings, and they are also the people of the Dasheng Dynasty, why can't they live?"

"Obviously you can fight hard, you can obviously keep them alive, why did you decide to give up on them before you worked hard?"

"And all of this turned out to be because the prince they admired was fighting with the prince, so they chose to sacrifice them!"
