Chapter 161: Unstoppable (Part 2)

Xiao Bi is the kind of person who knows everything.

Although she didn't know what the specific wishes of Chunyu City Lord and his wife were, the reason why he regarded himself as the only successor must be related to this wish.

City Lord Chunyu said: "I remember telling you that I was attracted by Ji Fubing's uniqueness when I was young.

She can cook some unique dishes and tell some strange stories.

She doesn't like playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she doesn't know anything about knitting. She is afraid of hardship when practicing martial arts, but she can brave the wind and rain to do business with others.

In her free time, she likes to talk about political affairs, and her views are different from everyone else's.

Many people regard her as an alien, but they have to admit that her views are very attractive.

After learning my true identity, her attitude toward me became even warmer.

Knowing what I like to hear, her narrative became more and more in-depth.

Later, when I met my wife, I learned that Princess Xiangdong had told her the same thing countless times.

It can even be said that the reason why my wife attracts me so much is, on the one hand, her own talents and education, and on the other hand, the influence Ji Fubing has had on her over the years."

Xiao Bi sighed softly: "I think all the changes your lady has made to Ruoshui City are just to make Ji Fubing's story come true."

Lord Chunyu said: "Ji Fubing described to us an ideal country. The country is governed by law, everyone is born equal, there is no emperor or king, and the leader is elected by everyone..."

The more he talked, the more immersed he became, and Xiao Bi gradually became obsessed with listening to it.

It is impossible for anyone who has not experienced it personally to describe that ideal country in such a realistic and detailed way.

So what Ji Fubing calls "wearing" probably means that she comes from that kind of country.

The country is governed by law, and everyone is created equal.

If such words were spoken to any emperor, Ji Fubing would be considered to have ulterior motives and even want to subvert the entire country.

Her ending is the same, that is, a dead end.

But the people who listened to this were City Lord Chunyu and his wife Han Yan. Not only did they listen, they even planned to take action to turn Ruoshui City into an ideal country.

Once Ruoshui City succeeds, perhaps one day, the entire world will undergo earth-shaking changes.

Compared with Chunyu City Lord and his wife, Xiao Bi is much more down-to-earth.

But she had to admit that this wish was so great that no one could throw cold water on it.

"City Lord, Ji Fubing is willing to tell you and your wife this, which proves that she also has the same wish, but why does she..."

City Lord Chunyu sneered: "She is just a person who is greedy for power. If everyone is created equal, what does she have to do with her?

She is just using this guise to deceive others in order to realize her ambitions."

Xiao Bi said: "No wonder you don't pay attention to the little tricks played by Tan's mother and son.

If your and your wife's wishes come true, the city lord of Ruoshui City will be elected by everyone.

No matter whose son Tan Zhuoming is, the plan of their mother and son is destined to fail."

City Lord Chunyu smiled bitterly and said: "It would be nice if things were that simple. Even the people of Ruoshui City have long been accustomed to the current rules.

Even if I am willing to give up everything, it is impossible to gain their approval in a short time.

To realize our wishes, we need more time and patience.

A few years ago, I moved too hastily, thinking that by concentrating all the power in my own hands, the people would get used to listening to me in everything.

But I didn't expect that the final result would be unsatisfactory. Once something went wrong with me, the entire Weoshui City would lose its backbone and be bullied by others.

So Xiaojiu, you must learn from my lesson and do everything slowly.

If a wish cannot be realized in one generation, then we will use two or even three generations.

One day, Weoshui City will become what we ideally want it to be."

Xiao Bi picked at the palm of her hand and said after a while: "City Lord, what if I can't do it?"

City Lord Chunyu smiled: "It doesn't matter, with Xiaojiu's ability, it is not difficult for Ruoshui City to maintain the status quo.

Even if the world is unified one day and people in other countries can survive, the people here will never be without a way out."

"I still don't understand why you identified me?"

"Some things need to be experienced by oneself, and it is difficult to be convinced by other people's words.

Now I have a plan and want to ask for your opinion."

"City Lord, please speak."

"I will send Yi'er to Wei Jing after the new year. I wonder if there will be a chance to come back again.

So I would like to take this opportunity to explain your true identity to the officials and people of Ruoshui City.

If you always hide your head and show your tail like this, if you don't say anything about your grievances, it will inevitably lead to additional problems."

Xiao Bi's heart tightened.

After resting for a few days, City Lord Chunyu's energy and complexion had recovered a lot.

Although he still looked very weak, they always felt that he was still far away from that day.

But after listening to his arrangement, she realized how bad everything was.

The city lord was obviously worried that he would be in trouble after he left, so he wanted to remove all obstacles for her.

"City Lord..." Xiao Bi's voice was hoarse: "If I couldn't even handle this little thing, you wouldn't have handed Ruoshui City into my hands."

City Lord Chunyu was very pleased and said: "Of course I believe you, but I feel a little sorry for you."

Xiao Bi said: "We are all a family now, why do you have to be so polite.

The reason why I refused your help is actually selfish."

"Oh? Why don't you come and listen?" City Lord Chunyu looked very interested.

Xiao Bi said with a smile: "Not long ago, King Li Guo Jianping sent people to lobby. Ji Fengzhuo intends to form an alliance with him and plans to bring me, Ruoshui City, into it."

City Lord Chunyu muttered: "Ji Fengzhuo's thoughts are understandable, but if he knew that Shangguan Nanxiao was his nephew-in-law, I'm afraid he would be completely different."

Ji Fengzhuo and his wife wanted to recruit Huan Yu as their son-in-law, but Xiao Bi did not intend to tell anyone else.

Especially Chunyu City Lord, his health is already too bad and he really can't add any more burden.

"That's why I just rejected the offer.

Ji Fengzhuo's ambition is really too great. When Ayu and Aji work around him, I always have to be on guard."

City Lord Chunyu said: "Your idea is good, the hearts of emperors are unfathomable, and they will do anything for power.

Your status is already special, and now that you are the Lord of Weoushui City, he must want to take advantage of you."

Xiao Bi said: "My fifth brother and I have grown up together. It's really a pity that we waited until he was willing to get married, but couldn't attend his wedding."
