Ling Chen got enlightened, chuckling as he replied, “No wonder the young noble gave him a month's time limit to cure the poison, so that's the case. Young noble, you are really too bad! ”

“I have no other alternatives left for me.” Ling Tian sighed once while shaking his head. “Against someone like Shui QianRou who is very loyal to his family, I have no other choice. Even this decision of mine may not be the best.”

“I am not sure why, but I continue to feel that this Miss Shui is actually a very sad person.” After walking for a while with Ling Tian, Ling Chen felt his heavy emotions and finally could not keep his own thoughts.

“Suffering?” Ling Tian coldly replied, “The pathetic person is so because there are things that people hate! He was not pathetic at all, as he put his family advantage above all else! Just like a crazy believer, be ready to sacrifice everything they have for what they believe in. He had absolutely no idea what he really wanted, and what he should do! Such a person is not pitiful, but rather stupid! Very stupid!”

“Chen’er, as a woman, you can go wild, go crazy for the man you love, and you can also sacrifice yourself for your family, your relatives. However, the point I cannot accept is that a woman sacrifices herself on behalf of her family! What does a family mean? It was just a rotten and old-fashioned way to show one's reputation! In the field of business, women sacrifice themselves to gain advantage for their families to survive, and in the imperial court, the, men use women to exchange help to ensure their meteoric rise in their careers. Across the country, emperors used women in exchange for temporary world peace. Hahaha, bullshit*t! All these things should have been accomplished with your own hands, and think that you did it by exchanging women? They should be ashamed of themselves! Men who treat women as objects do not deserve to be men!

“As for the women who are willing to sacrifice themselves for their families and clans, they may never understand what they are risking their lives for! What they got in return was merely an insult to the clan! Other than her parents, no one would think about the future or happiness of that woman! So, is the sacrifice really worth it? ”

“Someone should always take their life in their own hands. Be it man or woman, it makes no difference!” Ling Tian violently spat out. “Someone can work hard for the family, but they cannot sacrifice themselves for the family! Family clans are just like a country. Those who sacrifice themselves for it must be men and not hide it behind a woman! As for the women, they should be appreciated and loved, and not sent to be a shield for the family!”

“The words of the young noble might make sense,” Ling Chen slowly replied, after pondering about it, “but Chen’er felt that there was nothing wrong with the woman who gave up her life for the family. To protect the clan should not only be the responsibility of men. A woman should have the same responsibilities.”

Ling Tian laughed cheerfully. “Heard you say this makes me very happy. However, this is my own deep-rooted problem. I know that sometimes I may be a little chauvinistic, but this is something I have never been able to live with, even since I was young.”

Lightly leaning on Ling Tian, Ling Chen softly voiced, “Young nobles are heroes in this day and age, and of course will not be able to accept the act of trading these women or children for profit. However, Chen’er dared to confirm something. ” At this point, his face showed a mesmerizing smile.

“What do you believe in?” Ling Tian asked.

“If a girl could be the woman of someone like a young noble, it would be the happiest thing in her entire life. I have no doubt about it!” Ling Chen giggled.

Ling Tian stood in shock for a while, before sighing and saying, “That may not be true. Nothing is absolute in life! In the end, I am still a man, and I will have problems, such as being unfaithful, or not being able to control my desires. When I see a pretty girl, I can't help but look at some extras. I'm just not good at controlling my desires. Chen’er may be my favorite woman, but this does not mean that I will love nothing but you!

A sweet smile splashed across Ling Chen's face, “As long as I become the darling of the young noble, that's enough for me. Young nobility is also too humble, for someone of your stature, how could not many women throw themselves at you? If it was any other young noble, he would have long since married and formed a family. Young nobles are very disciplined! In the eyes of Feng Mo and the others, they respect you for this!”

“Hahaha,” Ling Tian chuckled at his speech. “Little girl, how do you know. I'd rather have fresh, juicy peaches like you, than eat dried apricots that are mushy and wrinkled! ”

Ling Chen's face reddened, and he pretended to stomp his feet furiously. Suddenly, she turned around and blew lightly in her ear, whispering, “Young nobleman, then.... fresh peaches here ... is it sweet?”

Ling Tian's eyes lit up, and as his eyes explored his slim body, he involuntarily stuck out his tongue, licking his lips hungry while nodding his head. “Manic! Very sweet, to the point that the teeth of this young noble fall out all!”

“You are so naughty!” Ling Chen's face was completely red and he immediately dashed forward in a hurry.

“Ling young nobleman, Miss Ling Chen.” In front of them someone approached them. That's Meng LiGe.

“Master Meng,” Ling Tian greeted him with a smile. “May I ask where Mr Meng went today?”

“I have something to discuss with young nobles.” Meng LiGe looked at Ling Tian with her bright eyes, with a serious expression.

“Please tell me, Ling Tian is ear.”

“I feel that your comments and opinions today may not be right.” Meng LiGe spoke with a heavy expression, “If the aim of the young noble is to protect your family and place well, then that is certainly not a problem. But if the young noble wanted to conquer all that was under the heavens, it might not be a good thing. ”

“Oh? Let's hear the details.” Ling Tian smiled.

Ling Tian now looked at Meng LiGe with a strange look. “Master Meng, Ling Tian really thought that after reading all the classics, you would long understand the underlying meaning and not blindly believe in what they are saying. However, I discovered today that even someone of your caliber is still limited by convention! ”

Meng LiGe flared up, “Young noble, do you just refuse to listen to the bitter truth?”

Ling Tian shook his head in response, “It's not that I can't listen. I also understand the meaning of bitter truth. Regarding the issue of this government, in my opinion, the sentence ‘Having the heart of citizens is equal to getting everything under the sky’ is just a mistake!”

“Error?!” Meng LiGe's anger surged, and she shouted, “This is a great way to organize all under the heavens, set by all of our ancestors long ago. How can there be any mistakes ?! ”

Ling Tian only smiled mysteriously. “Let's put it this way. I will trouble you to go back and browse through the ancient records. I'll give you a punishment, and if Master thinks that Ling Tian is wrong, then Ling Tian will gladly accept the punishment. How about that?”

“Good!” Meng LiGe forcefully spoke.

“However, if your observation proves that Ling Tian is right, then what are you going to do?” Ling Tian looked at Meng LiGe with an expression like that of a fisherman while putting up bait to roll up a fish.

“If that's the case, then I will be willing to try my utmost to contribute to the young noble's cause! I will even offer my life for your purpose!” Meng LiGe was decisive, and knowing what Ling Tian wanted, she immediately put down her cards.

“Good!” Ling Tian praised.

“Then may I ask the young noble, what sentence do you want to give me?” Meng Li Ge asked.

“Simple, it is to reverse whatever has been said.” Ling Tian uttered each word slowly, “To, control, all, under, heaven, is, to, get, heart, citizen!”

Ling Tian then laughed as he walked away, with Ling Chen following behind him. He left Meng LiGe pondering, his head lowered as he pondered over Ling Tian's words. As Ling Tian walked away, he recited, “Before conquering all that is under the heavens, I just need to utilize, to guide the hearts of the citizens and their grievances. That's enough! If my heart is unstable, what right do I have to speak of the hearts of citizens? Only after I have conquered all can I begin to focus on gaining the hearts of my people, only then can my government survive. At that time, it would actually be called reaching the hearts of citizens! So, the meaning of knowing the hearts of everyone under the heavens is actually just listening and knowing what the masses want!”

Meng LiGe raised her head, looking behind Ling Tian who was walking into the distance. He was immersed in deep thought at Ling Tian's speech.

Just as the various leaders of the Ling Family Courtyard sat down with Ling Tian to eat, someone came to report to Ling Tian, saying that Shui QianRou had already left. Ling Tian simply nodded and gave instructions to Ling Feng and Ling Yun. Both of them nodded, leaving immediately.

Ling Chi was still leading the members of the new law enforcement squad to clear the members who had surrendered on the battlefield. Inside the courtyard, a strong smell of blood could be seen from afar! In the distance, one could see a wagon full of bloody corpses being sent out.

The gentle and gentle-hearted Ling Chen furrowed his brows, unable to eat anymore. Seeing this, Ling Tian lightly squeezed his hand, sending an apologetic look at him.

Ling Chen lowered his head in embarrassment but still let him continue to hold his hand. At the same time, he felt that the smell of blood was already unbearable anymore.

Ling Jian spoke at this time, “Young noble, Ling Five has sent the complete black iron sword you requested. Without your instructions, we dare not move it, and we leave it in the secret room. Does the young noble want to see her? ”

Ling Tian immediately felt a wave of excitement, exclaiming, “That must be something I must see. All right, let's get there. ” As he spoke, he was already standing. While the others knew that this was a plan from Ling Tian and Ling Jian to help Ling Chen, how could they still let go of such a good opportunity to eat with Ling Tian? So, someone suggested, “How about we bring wine and dishes there, tasting wine while observing the sword, it is a great happiness in life. Young noble, please agree! ”

Ling Tian smiled in agreement, making everyone start packing.

The secret room had no furniture, with only ten strange-looking swords hanging on the wall. This was how Ling Tian asked for it, without any embroidery and pretenses, just a forest of black weapons, emitting waves of killing intent!

Ling Jian stepped forward, grasping one of the swords in his hand. With a shrill voice, the sword was pulled from its sheath. Those present immediately felt a drop in temperature as waves of light refracted from the sword body, illuminating the room without restraint.

“This sword is 2 feet, 9 and inch long, weighs 3.85 kilograms. The body of the sword had been refined and melted a hundred times, consisting of steel mixed with ink-black steel. This sword can pierce through metal like mud!” Ling Jian pulled the sword at his waist with his other hand and swung it towards the black iron sword!
