Don’t be discouraged in times of crisis. The future is always determined.

Su Su's confusion comes from the fact that she still can't see the essence of some things clearly. She doesn't know that even if she makes the greatest good intentions, hostility still exists, and the good at this time becomes the soil that breeds evil. Su Su just used wrong standards to measure the affairs between the Blue Lake countries, so that she got herself trapped and couldn't extricate herself for a while.
On the way back, Su Su was still distracted. The flowers and plants on the roadside accidentally broke into her eyes. She stopped and wished that she was these flowers and plants, growing carefree and living a free life. She couldn't help but feel envious in her heart. An early blooming flower attracted Su Su. She walked closer unconsciously and accidentally stepped on the surrounding grass. The grass lay innocently under her feet. The flower hurt the grass. Maybe most people wouldn't care. They I only care about admiring the beautiful flowers, but why should the grass have to bear this? Don’t the flowers have no responsibility? So should flowers bloom here? Would a flower be beautiful without grass surrounding it? If I didn't love flowers, maybe Xiaocao wouldn't suffer these pains, but the flowers have already bloomed. Su Su wondered what the meaning of being a governor would be if he failed to make the people live a better life. She tried to help Xiaocao up.
Suini returned to Dongfu Kingdom and took advantage of the last batch of grain trading ships to transport a batch of things. Susu watched from a distance as they moved the things into the island and did what they should do. Suini and Chenggang remained the same. They are highly motivated and seem not to be affected by the ban at all. Are they really not worried? Still don't care at all how they did it.
In the evening, Li Lai Suosuo and Dao Zhi got together to discuss the current situation. Li Lai told Dao Zhi that Su Su had been here and then asked:
"Su Su looks very decadent, will something happen?"
"It should be fine. Su Su left the school not long ago and needs time to understand some things."Daozhi
"She had never been on a battlefield and could not understand the cruelty of the struggle on the Blue Lake."Sosuo
"Some things are better not to be experienced. Yan Lao gave her justice and kindness, and seemed to deliberately avoid the evil on the Blue Lake, so that she would have a pure heart."Dao Zhi.
Dao Zhi hopes that Su Su can stay away from the struggle between countries. Struggles are unscrupulous and many are disgraceful. They cannot be treated by outsiders and cannot be put on the stage. Even if they want to be put on stage, they need a set of high-sounding rhetoric. , lies will exist
"The general was afraid that after she learned too much about evil, she would subvert her original beliefs."Li Lai
"Her original belief would be the welfare of the people of Dongfu in the future."Daozhi
"That's true. Xilu Country’s food ban is going to kill us, and it’s normal for Susu to be worried."Li Lai
"They are so arrogant and domineering, and they go too far."Sosuo
"They have always been like this. They used to deal with Rakshasa Kingdom, but this time it was Dongfu Kingdom's turn to feel special pain. No matter what the West Lu Kingdom does, it is for the benefit of their own country. Even if they launch a war against the Dongfu Kingdom, there is nothing wrong with them from their perspective. Today's Blue Lake is still divided by countries. Different countries have their own people, and the monarchs of each country seek benefits for their own people. It would be best if all countries could respect each other and develop together, and the people of all countries could live a better life. But the reality is that this is not the case. Countries have differences, and differences can easily lead to conflicts. All countries want to be strong and always remain strong. Only by being strong can they defend their own rights and interests from infringement, and even infringe on the rights of other countries. The Luoba Kingdom was like this in the early days, the Japanese Kingdom had dreamed of this, and the Xilu Kingdom has been like this in the past 60 years. I believe they will not change."Tao Zhi.
Li Lai added:"There are two fundamental aspects of a country's strength. One is bigness. The so-called bigness means a large population and a large area, and the other is wealth. There is a limit to the size of a country. It is difficult to govern a place with a large population. If it cannot be governed effectively, it will be difficult to make the country rich. A major role of the several ministers they supported over the years was to hinder King Dongfu from implementing the policy of enriching the country.
Daozhi continued:"If you cannot satisfy both being big and wealthy, you must weigh the best situation between being big and wealthy." It was a wise choice for Xilu Kingdom not to occupy us back then. Dongfu Kingdom, which had experienced the war, was completely destitute. The biggest problem was the survival of the people, and occupation would be of no benefit. Things are different now. The intervention of the Xilu Kingdom also proves that the path taken by the Dongfu Kingdom in recent years is correct. Now, in order to maintain the dominance of the Xilu Kingdom in the Blue Lake, the measures taken to restrict other countries are also responsible for the country. If it were replaced by the Luoba Kingdom, it would be the same. If this is done, no one in the country will object. Li Lai:"
I remember that a prime minister of Xilu Kingdom once said that for profit, they lie, they cheat, they steal, they threaten, they destroy, they fight."
"In this case, we can only fight to the end."Sosuo
"If you want Dongfu Country to develop and the people's lives to be better, you can only achieve it by fighting."Li Lai
"The food embargo has little impact yet, but it will have an impact next year, and the impact will be even greater the year after that. We don’t have much time."Daozhi
"The former Minister of War is dead, and the Minister of Hubu is at home. Will the other three ministers take the opportunity to cause trouble?"Li Lai
"The other three ministers are also limited in their ability to cause trouble. I am afraid that the minister of household affairs is not idle. You might as well think about a few things together and you will know their purpose."Daozhi
"The riots in the south and the food ban were all aimed at forcing His Majesty to reinstate the Minister of Household Affairs to his original position."Sosuo
"It seems that they have realized that they must not let the Minister of Household Affairs return to the court. If he returns to the court, they will have 4 people and His Majesty has 3 people. They can control the government openly again."Li Lai
"Even if the Minister of Household Affairs is here, the grain embargo will not be easily lifted. He does not have such ability at all."Daozhi
"I also think so. Shangshu Hubu is just a small chess piece, not a chess player. The chess player is Xilu Kingdom."Li Lai
"If we can't bear it, if the Minister of the Ministry of Finance still attacks them, we will definitely retaliate. Once we retaliate, the consequences of internal and external cooperation will be disastrous, and the efforts of several generations of King Dongfu will probably be destroyed soon."Daozhi
"It has been too difficult for Your Majesty these years."Sosuo
"It is actually very happy to be an ordinary person. Power corresponds to responsibility. The greater the power, the greater the responsibility, and the more you pay. Most people only see the charm of power but ignore the heavy responsibility. Nowadays, there are internal and external troubles and crises everywhere. There are dangers and opportunities. We can only rely on ourselves."Daozhi
"The worst case scenario is that the fish will die and the net will break, and the fish will die in one fell swoop."Sosuo
"We have to fight, but not to the point of dying together."Li Lai
"If we lose, it doesn't matter if we die, and the people of Dongfu will be implicated."Daozhi.
For Daozhi and the others, life is a battle, a battle everywhere, a battle they cannot afford to lose. They are prepared to die in every battle. They are used to it. This time is different. If they lose It's not something that a few of them can afford.
"Now how to do?"Sosuo
"The grain embargo is a temporary edict, and Xilulu will take further measures. We are most short of time now. How is the progress in Suini?"Daozhi
"After the embargo on grain, transportation was interrupted, but Suini did not stop, hoping that no more accidents would happen."Li Lai sighed at the end.
Suo Suo and Dao Zhi looked up at Li Lai.
The food ban made the situation in Blue Lake even more tense, affecting the courts of various countries. Some were waiting to see what happened, some were ready to take action, and some were miserable. Everyone is like looking at flowers in the fog, unable to see clearly
