I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 689 Awakened
After walking forward for a while, seeing that the workshop was in sight, one of the crowd couldn't help pointing to the wall of the workshop and holding a torch, and the patrolling people said,
"It's not good, look quickly, they seem to know that we are coming, but someone is still patrolling in the middle of the night."

Everyone was startled when they heard the voice, but what surprised them was not that there was someone guarding the workshop, but that the speaker's voice was actually a female voice.

Yang Suwen picked out the person who was about to speak from the crowd, and pulled off the mask on his face, revealing an embarrassing but very good-looking face.

"Ruowei, you are too nonsense, how can you participate in this kind of thing."

Sun Ruowei said very angrily,

"Why can you all come, but I can't, don't I count as one of you!"

Yang Suwen said anxiously,

"How can this be the same? What we do is very dangerous. If you are injured, how can we explain to Master!"

"Hmph, Brother Yang, you always use my father to oppress me. I don't accept it. Anyway, this time I have followed, and I will continue to follow no matter what. You can't drive me away."

Although the quarrel between the two was not loud, it still attracted the attention of the workshop trainers.

"Who, who is over there!"

Everyone retreated into the corner quickly, and Yang Suwen also knew that this was not the time to argue about this matter.

Even if Sun Ruowei is allowed to go back now, the city is in turmoil right now, if there is a mistake, wouldn't it be even more dangerous.

There was no other way, he could only stare at Sun Ruowei, then compromised and said,
"You can follow us if you want, but you promise yourself that you will never run around or act without authorization. Otherwise, I would rather give up this mission than let you make trouble."

Sun Ruowei nodded hurriedly and said,

"Brother Yang, don't worry, I will never make trouble for you."

At this moment, it can be seen how much everyone loves Sun Ruowei.

As soon as Yang Suwen agreed, everyone said,
"Brother Yang, don't worry, with us protecting Junior Sister, she will be fine!"

Yang Suwen watched everyone doting around Sun Ruowei one by one, shook his head helplessly and said,

"You must keep an eye on her!"

After speaking, he looked at the workshop not far away, and found that the workshop was still brightly lit even at this time, obviously there were still people working in it.

After getting the news, his expression couldn't help but change.

I hated in my heart,
"The person who arranged this task is really not a thing, knowing that the workshop will not rest at night, but let us carry out this task!

This is clearly forcing us to set fire!
Once the fire burns, it will inevitably not hurt people. What is the difference between this and forcing us to kill people. "

He wanted to stop this mission immediately and take people back immediately, but he hesitated as soon as the idea came up.

Over the years, if it weren't for the secret support of these people, more than half of the family members in the north would have starved to death.

If they really stop the supply and make trouble in the dark, it may be difficult for the 3 people to survive this winter.

"Who can teach me, what should I do!"

Just when he was hesitating, he suddenly saw fires erupting in many places in the city.

Even if they were thousands of meters away, they could see the scorching fire clearly.

Everyone was also attracted by the flames.

"They started to act? I'm afraid few people can escape from such a fire. How many people will die?"

Not only Yang Suwen was shocked, but even Sun Ruowei, who was not very involved in various major events, also turned pale.

"Brother Yang, do you know something? Who started these fires! What are they doing? Don't they know that doing so will kill many innocent people!"

Yang Su was stumped when he asked.

He hesitated for a while, not knowing how to explain it to her.

Is it possible to tell her that all of this is arranged by someone, with the purpose of driving the current emperor out of power?
The dozen or so of them seem to be working hard to save their families, but in fact they are just poor worms living in the hands of the powerful. Apart from the value of being used by others, they are basically useless.

Yang Suwen asked himself,
"Is all this really what I want, in order to achieve my goal, at all costs, and at the expense of many innocent lives?"

It's not that he didn't think about it before, and he had to use part of the sacrifice in exchange for the help of the King of Han.

But at this time, when he really saw the fire all over the city and heard the terrified cries of countless people, his heart was shaken accordingly.

"I'm different from them. The reason why I do all this is for my family. I'm not a person who plots to seize power in the world of cholera. Everything they do has nothing to do with us!
I want to choose my own path, and don't want others to dictate my life! "

Thinking of this, Yang Suwen's eyes flashed brightly, and he said loudly to everyone,
"Come on, let's go back, let's not participate in this shit!"

Upon hearing this, some people were overjoyed, especially Sun Ruowei, who seemed to be relieved.

But there are also people who worry,

"But Brother Yang, if we don't follow their orders, and if they really stop the supply, what will we do!"

Yang Suwen shook his head and said,

"There must be a way for a car to reach the mountain. I don't believe it. With the efforts of so many of us, it will be difficult for them to live a good year! Don't worry, leave everything to me, I will definitely figure out There is a way!"

Even he himself didn't believe what he said, but he had to say it, even if it was a lie, he would keep telling it.

He is the leader of this group of people. As a leader, he should bear the burden that everyone should not bear. No matter when and where, he can't make them lose confidence. Sometimes, telling lies is inevitable.

Everyone threw all the bottles and jars on their bodies into a sewer.

Throwing away these things, they seemed to have also thrown away some of the burdens in their hearts, and they felt a lot easier all of a sudden.

"Let's go back!"

"I happened to be sleepy, and I just went back to make up for the return sleep!"

"Haha, you guy, you don't wake up all day long. When do you think you're awake?"

"You can't blame me, who told you to snore so loudly that I couldn't sleep all night long!"

"Why don't you say it, your feet are smelly, we have to sleep with our heads covered every day, it's no wonder we don't snore!"

Seeing all the brothers talking and laughing, Yang Suwen also relaxed a lot, feeling that his choice was not wrong.
