Chapter 1053 I am a king, but I am also a husband (1)
"I came here this time to ask you to abandon your weapons and surrender!"
Ji Wujue's plain voice made King Lao Zhuo change his expression.
He refused without even thinking, "I, He Lianyi, have been a soldier all my life. Even if I lose, I will lose standing. If you ask me to surrender, you might as well kill me with a sword now!"
"Don't reject me in a hurry." Ji Wujue seemed to have expected King Zhuo's reaction. He turned around and said calmly, "I will take you to see the real Ziyou City!"
King Lao Zhuo frowned and looked at Ji Wujue's back, the real Ziyou City?
"Your Majesty, Donglan's soldiers have arrived at the foot of the city gate. What should we do now? Your Majesty, where are you going?"
Behind King Lao Zhuo were the urgent shouts of soldiers.
"What else can we do? Stay where you are!"
Now that there is no food, and even the weapons have been taken away by Emperor Donglan, what can they use to fight others?
After King Lao Zhuo dropped these words, he immediately followed Ji Wujue's footsteps.
He wants to see what is the real Ziyou City in his mouth!
"Please, this is the last dry food we have left. Can you not take it all away?"
The skinny woman knelt on the ground and begged the soldiers pitifully.
But the soldiers couldn't control so much, and they immediately wiped out all the food in the woman's house.
This kind of robbery of food happens in almost every household in Ziyou City.
Seeing this, King Lao Zhuo became very angry.
If Emperor Donglan hadn't stolen their food, this situation would never have happened.
"Why, do you want to tell me how miserable these people are? Don't forget, you are the initiators! It was you, Donglan, who started this war!"
Ji Wujue did not respond to him, but continued to lead him down.
"Have you heard, have Donglan Kingdom's soldiers attacked the city?"
"It seems not yet. There is no movement at all at the city gate."
"Then what should we do? Isn't it said that Donglan's army is very powerful? Why can't they attack even Ziyou City?"
Someone said anxiously.
"Don't worry. The army is out of food now. I think they will take action soon."
"Well, I hope so. As long as we can survive this test, the people of Ziyou City will be able to live a good life like the people of Jiujun City and Lan City."
Jiujun City and Lan City were cities that Donglan conquered five years ago.
As they became the territory of Donglan, the lives of the people in these cities were visibly better than before.
Last year, a distant cousin came to Ergouzi's house on Dongjie, who was from Jiujun City. The clothes he wore were all made of materials they had never seen before.
"Yes, I heard that people over there can eat big white steamed buns every day and can make delicious dishes at home."
The person who answered was a thin and short old man, with hope for the future flashing in his old eyes.
He has never eaten steamed buns in his life. I heard that the taste is simply delicious.
"I also heard that there are some nursing homes and orphanages opened there. Homeless old people and orphans can go to these places and they are provided with food, shelter and housing!"
"Well, we have a good emperor and a good queen, so what do we have? I just hope Donglan's army can move faster."
After hearing these, King Zhuo couldn't help himself.
"You are all from the Beicang Kingdom. How can you expect the enemy to come? No matter how hard your life is, you should not have such thoughts!"
If these people are his soldiers, he will never spare them. On the battlefield, these people are traitors!
"People from Beicang Kingdom?"
Someone chuckled softly. He looked at Old Zhuo Wang. He was wearing silk and satin. He must be a wealthy member of the government in the city.

"How can you rich people know the plight of poor people like us? If it were you who didn't have enough food or clothing to keep warm all day long, and had to pay heavy taxes every month, and watch your family members around you fall ill one by one.
