Gu Yu did not dare to delay and nodded. She carefully carried the paper and left.

Shen Miao looked at the two of them leave and heaved a sigh of relief.

In the world, with martial arts, one could conquer the world, and with literature, one could stabilize the world. Now that the world was conquered, it needed to be stabilized. Since the Lu family wanted to use this opportunity to cause trouble, Shen Miao might as well turn the tables and beat the Lu family in their own game. It was uncertain who could stand until the end. Not only did Shen Miao want the Lu family to lose, but she also wanted the Lu family to suffer.

That night, Xie Jingxing still did not return.

Shen Miao managed Prince Rui’s mansion well. From time to time, she would go to the noble madams in the capital to calm them down. Only when she slept at night would she feel a little lonely. As she thought about Xie Jingxing, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning, when the sun shone on every corner of the city, someone noticed something that looked like a piece of white paper stuck to his door. The person was a butcher and did not know how to read. Coincidentally, he saw his neighbor, Scholar Ma, walk past. He said, “Scholar Ma, you’re a scholar. Come and read this for me.’

Scholar Ma walked to the butcher’s door. When he saw the words on the paper, he first sighed and said, “Good hand-writing!” Then, he leaned closer and read word by word, “To my countryman…”

In just a few days, the letter “To My Countryman” spread throughout the streets and alleys, and everyone in the Daliang Dynasty knew about it. The snow-white paper was everywhere. Most of the scholars kept it well at home and wanted to get to know the person who wrote it.

The young people in the Hanlin Academy were reading the letter.

“In the past, the dynasty was poor and weak, but it was peaceful and harmonious. Now that the dynasty is strong and prosperous, rebels wanted to destroy it. Ever since His Majesty ascended the throne, the granaries have been full, and the harvests have been bountiful. Instead of striving for a better world, the traitors wanted to ruin it. Aren’t they ashamed of themselves? Aren’t they embarrassed of themselves? How disloyal, heartless, and unrighteous!”

The people who were reading were surrounded by a large group of students. When they heard this, they all looked indignant. In this letter, it talked about the recent rebellion of the Lu family. First, the letter scolded the Lu family for doing such a treacherous thing, and then it said that the traitor spread a false rumor. This rumor was actually believed by many people, which was really disappointing. When Emperor Yong Le was in power, the people of the Daliang Dynasty lived in peace and harmony. The country was rich, and the people were safe. It was no less than when Emperor Xiaowu was in power. The people did not praise the emperor’s achievements, but instead, they listened to the nonsense of a traitor. Aren’t they ashamed? Aren’t they embarrassed?

This “To My Countrymen” was brilliant and sharp. Putting aside the political opinions, it was well-written. Moreover, what it said made sense. It made people feel ashamed and reflect on themselves.

Emperor Yong Le was kind to the people and was benevolent to the officials. Since the Lu family rebelled, they were definitely not loyal people. Thinking that they once leaned towards the traitor, the people felt ashamed of themselves.

Those scholars felt that the person who wrote this letter must be a talented person. They wanted to befriend him, but unfortunately, they could not find the person who wrote it. As for the young students, they were inspired by this letter and wanted to join the army against the Lu family and personally behead the traitors..
