"Since ancient times, how many geniuses have existed? However, how many had protected an empire from extinction? None!" Mu Yangling looked straight at them and said, "Do you know why?"
"Because the people have inadequate food, clothing, housing, medical care, and their descendants have no way out. Their lives are insecure. As long as these problems are not dealt with, they will still rebel one day when they are forced to the extreme!"
"The commoners are like springs. When suppressed by a tyrannical ruler or corrupt officials, they can only try their best to stretch their bodies to submit continuously. That is, until they're forced into a desperate situation. Then, with a bang, the spring will loosen or break. Regardless of the former or the latter, the pressure of the rebound will always hurt the person pulling the spring. The more ruthlessly they pulled previously, the more serious the injury."
