Chapter 1040: I am not a good person, but I am still a human

Gao Yang's gaze was deep, looking into the distance.

The candy in his mouth seeped with a trace of sweetness.

Gao Yang didn't consider himself a good person, and to some extent, he was also an evil person without a bottom line.

Under Changancheng, he made the Chu army full of acquaintances, and created bacteria to kill the enemy. Facing captives, he poked the Great Chu princess without a bottom line, treating it as a gift from heaven.

Seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster—this was like an instinct carved into his bones.

The matter of the jar graves touched his heart, so he directed and acted in a play, then made trouble, and killed many corrupt officials.

But in the end, this behavior didn't cause much loss to his interests. Some small county magistrates were also caught with solid evidence, so killing them was just killing them.

Although some people in the court were unhappy, he also gained a lot of popular support.

This move, he didn't lose.

Therefore, he never considered himself a good person, and even felt that if people don't seek for themselves, heaven will destroy them, and those who don't take advantage are fools.

But when this matter was placed in front of him.

He found that he couldn't do it.

Gao Yang, although not a good person, was at least still a human.

He was greedy for money and accepted bribes, a very vulgar person. 200,000 taels was not a small amount, and having a large number of allies in the court to help was not bad, but this money was hot to hold, and this power would make him unable to sleep at night.

This world is very wonderful. People's joys and sorrows are different, and their situations are completely different. Some children are born in Changancheng, with hundreds of servants, destined to be brilliant for a lifetime, but some children die, just like a weed that is no lower than the roadside, just like a speck of dust in the universe, insignificant.
