Chapter 279

Chapter 280: The Clear Breeze, Bright Moon, and the Iron Cavalry By the time Li Wangyi and the two youngsters finished distributing all the food, it was already dusk. As night fell, light snow began to drift from the sky. The biting wind and cold snow made even Li Wangyi, wrapped in his brocade furs, feel a slight chill, let alone the impoverished commoners and beggars in their threadbare garments. This snowfall tonight would likely freeze many to death. Yet, the state of a nation is not a singular evil to be mended by one person. Even if Li Wangyi wished to do more, he felt a measure of powerlessness in the face of such conditions. He could kill every negligent or corrupt monarch, preceptor, civil and military official, and Daoist official in Qingwu State, but he could not, on his own, save every suffering soul in the land. That would require many hands and much time to turn the tides of an entire nation.
