Great Talisman Seal Script Master
Chapter 344 The black and white face of failure
"Ancestral Dragon has many virtuous ministers and famous generals, but those people are all my ministers and generals. Xiaobai, do you understand what I mean?"
"Your Majesty, you are trying to catch a duck!"
"I don't want to either, but time waits for me not."
"We are completely unprepared..."
"Government affairs are handled by the Prime Minister, and military matters are handled by King Qi and my three Guards Corps."
"The Prime Minister is trustworthy? Can King Qi be counted on?"
"If you do well, everyone can trust you. If you are strong, everyone can count on you."
"You are talking nonsense!"
"I'm telling the truth."
Bai Muye was speechless, looking at the calm-looking emperor. He now somewhat believed that the emperor was dead long ago.
Maybe there are only memories of the emperor's past in this body.
Otherwise, how could such nonsense be said?
What does it mean that we are strong when we do well?
If I have that ability, what else do you need to say?
If King Qi disobeys, just replace him!
The question is, where do I get that ability?
"I can survive for about half a year." The emperor looked at Bai Muye and said, "In these six months, you must grow up."
"Why don't you tell your son these words?" Bai Muye couldn't help but ask.
"I will tell him, but not now..." The emperor looked at Bai Muye, "If I tell him now, he will only collapse."
Bai Muye sighed: "But you told me, I'm a little broken too!"
Even if Sanxian Island and King Qi are sending people to chase him like crazy now, it is much easier than the emperor's entrustment, right?
"How many people know about this matter?" Bai Muye asked.
"These guards around me, and my queen." The emperor sighed and looked at Bai Muye with a sincere face, "Xiao Bai, I know that this request is a bit too difficult for you, but you have to think like this, I Except for some members of your Bai family and Lin family, there is no one you can trust."
Bai Muye was silent.
Really?
In the entire empire, with a population of trillions, there are not many trustworthy people? It is really sad to be the emperor for this.
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much. Don't think of me as the king of a country. Don't think of me as an old father who is about to leave but is worried about his children and family. I hope there is someone who can help his children to support this. Home."
The emperor looked at Bai Muye sincerely: "That's all."
Bai Muye said with a sincere smile: "This one is a bit big."
"Li Ying doesn't like the throne, neither does his brother, and his younger brother doesn't like it either. But he can't avoid this position." The emperor looked at Bai Muye: "So, can he agree to the last request of a dying father? ?"
Bai Muye was silent for a long time, but still shook his head: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to agree to you, it's really... your request is too difficult! If Xiao Gu is an ambitious person, then the group you left behind With the help of Minister Gu Ming, I may try to help him. Even if I can't help him now, I can always help him in the future. But the problem is that he is not interested in that position!"
"This is my business!" The emperor looked at Bai Muye, "As long as you are willing to promise me, one day, Li Ying will take over. You must remember what I said today, that's enough."
Bai Muye looked at the emperor, and the emperor looked at him.
Today's conversation, in anyone's opinion, probably shouldn't happen.
It was even more incredible that the emperor, the king of the country, talked so much to Bai Muye like an old man next door.
But it just happened, in front of Bai Muye's eyes.
a long time.
Bai Muye nodded and said, "I understand your purpose of coming. You have said so much, but there is actually one sentence you didn't say, right?"
The emperor's eyes lit up slightly and he looked at Bai Muye: "Which sentence?"
"You are afraid that I will rebel." Bai Muye said calmly.
Lin Zijin beside him was startled and looked at the emperor in surprise.
The emperor couldn't help laughing and looked at Bai Muye with burning eyes: "Then will you rebel?"
Several black lines appeared on Bai Muye's forehead: "How good do you think that position is? Your three stupid sons have no interest in it, but I am interested? Your Majesty, thank you for your consideration, I Thank you very much. I, Bai Muye, am just an ordinary young man with a bit of talent, and I seem to have a very powerful family behind me. But since I was a child, I have never received any help from that family. I didn’t even know! If you didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t have known that I had such awesome ancestors. I’d never even seen them! If you hadn’t appeared here today, I’d be with a group of friends right now. Together with your stupid son who doesn’t want to be the emperor, you are celebrating my master’s wedding!”
The emperor smiled and said: "So, no matter what day, you will not be the same?"
"I'm not interested!" Bai Muye said.
"Then, can you swear?" The emperor looked at him, "A blood oath."
Bai Muye frowned slightly and looked at the emperor: "Is it true that if I don't swear, I won't be able to leave this house today?"
Lin Zijin's face suddenly turned cold. She had been listening quietly from beginning to end, but now, there was a trace of anger in her eyes.
"Emperor, listen carefully!"
Lin Zijin stood up directly and looked down at the emperor sitting opposite, "We are friends with your son, not because he is a prince. When we met him, he was just Xiao Gu, a talented archer. But now we know that he is a prince. , we will not alienate him because of this, we are friends with this person, not this identity! Regardless of the dark realm or reality, whether he is the emperor or not, we will help him if he needs it. It has nothing to do with you!"
"Today is the day when my brother and I are happy for our respective masters. As the king of a country, we are all grateful and happy to be here and give you blessings. But you are holding us both back and nagging us. After talking for a long time, we finally showed our true colors and asked us to swear not to rebel. Why don’t you say it? We haven’t even thought about it!”
The emperor quietly glanced at Lin Zijin who was losing his temper, but was not angry. He smiled and said: "Girl, there are some things that you have not thought about now, just like... When I was your age, I actually didn't care about the throne. They also refused. Don’t think that only my three sons refused the throne. In fact, I also refused.”
"But in the end, didn't you have a great fight with King Qi? You pulled people to stand in line, and suppressed them if they didn't stand...as if you didn't do these things! Who are you talking about those high-sounding words?"
The angry Lin Zijin didn't care about that and dared to say anything.
Fortunately, there was no fourth person in the room, otherwise he would most likely be scared to death.
"I did it. When I was young, I always did a few stupid things. What you said is something I will regret until my death." The emperor looked at Lin Zijin, "So, you, a sharp-tongued little girl, just Don’t treat me like a dead person, okay?”
Lin Zijin: "..."
Is there anything more self-deprecating than this?
"It seems that you are not very good at being an emperor, but you can be killed by others. It's really embarrassing. What's the point of such a bad position?" Lin Zijin mocked.
Bai Muye was silent for a moment: "Who harmed whom, Your Majesty?"
"There are many..." the emperor sighed and shook his head slightly, "King Lu, King Chu, King Huai, some ministers in the court... and even a few of my useless sons are also involved, but this is not important, they They won’t live long.”
He looked at Bai Muye: "King Chu, King Huai, and my few useless sons have all been cleared away. But King Lu... is somewhat troublesome, but it doesn't matter, I will solve these problems. So, Xiaobai, can you swear?"
Bai Muye sat there, looking at the emperor calmly: "Sorry, I can't."
"Why? Aren't you afraid that if I give an order, a few god-level guards will come in and kill you? Your emperor-level ancestors can't catch you at this time. As a dead person, I won't care about that. "More." The emperor looked at Bai Muye and said.
"Then you are not afraid that he will destroy your royal family in a rage?" Lin Zijin asked coldly.
"Haha, she will crush me to ashes, but she can't really destroy the Li family."
"You are an emperor who only has half a year left. If you really want to kill me, why would you cross the galaxy and come here in person? There is no need to tell me so much."
"That's because I want to see you swear with my own eyes." The emperor said.
"My bones are not so strong that I won't give in to anyone, but I really don't want to take this oath." Bai Muye looked at the emperor, "If one day the world is in chaos, and I accidentally become the savior, then , I may not refuse!”
"You are very presumptuous." A touch of coldness finally flashed through the emperor's always gentle and calm eyes.
Bai Muye looked at the emperor calmly: "That's not desire, that's responsibility."
The emperor also looked at Bai Muye coldly.
The king of a country controls the life and death of trillions of living beings. No matter how much he dresses himself up like a kindly old man next door, he is not and will never be.
"I'm telling the truth." Bai Muye said.
"Do you know that your words are enough to make me want to kill you?"
The emperor said calmly and glanced at Lin Zijin who had a big knife out of the door panel.
"Emperor Dog, do you believe it or not, if you say one more word, I will chop you into pieces with one knife?"
Lin Zijin didn't care how many god-level powers there were outside, she only knew that no one could hurt her brother!
Whoever dares to do this, she will fight to the death!
"Girl, put the knife back." Bai Muye glanced at Lin Zijin.
"No!" Lin Zijin refused flatly. She looked at Bai Muye with a stubborn look on her face, "I think the Dog Emperor just wants to kill you today. Brother, can't you see? It must be that piece of shit. Imperial Master, you are talking nonsense about your brother’s luck, and then he said something unpleasant. How can we assist the new emperor? There are many famous ministers and generals in the imperial court, and there are countless loyal ministers and good generals. Gu was forced into that position. Even if he is a salty fish and does not go to court for decades, the empire will not collapse. Therefore, this dog emperor came here today just to test your attitude, brother. In fact, no matter what you say, brother! , No matter if you agree or not, the Dog Emperor will never give up his murderous intention. He came here just to see you die with his own eyes! But he kept talking nonsense for so long, and he was actually waiting. ! Waiting for the ancestors of my brother’s family to come!”
Lin Zijin said, turning to the emperor coldly: "Emperor Dog, am I right or not?"
The emperor smiled bitterly and said, "I am already dead, but I am still being scolded by a little girl like you as a dog emperor. But it doesn't matter. When the third brother was in front of you, you also called me a dog emperor. I won't argue with you, a little girl." He looked at Bai Muye and his voice became cold: "Bai Muye, are you sure you don't swear?" Just then, a noisy voice suddenly came from outside. "Let me in!" "Why are you blocking me here?" "Get out of here!" Then, the door of the villa was pushed open. Gu Yingjun's slightly flushed face appeared there. He took a look at the situation in the room and then breathed a sigh of relief. She strode to the emperor, looked him in the eyes, and said angrily: "Father, you play the villain and I play the hero, is it interesting?"
The emperor was slightly startled, then frowned: "What are you doing here?"
Xiao Gu said angrily: "How long do you want to hide it from me? You don't want me to come in, and there are a bunch of gods standing at the door, can I come in?"
The emperor suddenly laughed: "So, father's method... is a bit cheap, and my son laughed at it, right?"
Xiao Gu knelt in front of the emperor with a plop and cried: "Father, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Gu just has no interest in the throne, not an unfilial son.
Just now, I followed a group of people back in a lively manner, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong.
What did the father want to say by sending everyone away and leaving Xiaobai and Zijin alone?
Just at this time, a guard beside the emperor found him and secretly gave him something.
After reading it, Xiao Gu was a little confused.
It was a letter left by his father for him.
The emperor hoped that he could take the throne!
He was given a list of trustworthy people in the court.
At the same time, the person the emperor valued most was Xiaobai!
But he still had some doubts about this person who was deduced by the national teacher with his life.
The future was too vague.
The key was that his surname was Bai.
So the emperor hoped that Xiaogu could cooperate with him to play a play.
The emperor played the villain and deliberately suppressed Xiaobai with the dignity of an emperor. This strength was definitely enough.
Then let Xiaogu "happen" to break through all this and save Xiaobai.
At that time, Bai Muye, a young man who had no ambitions, would naturally be grateful to Xiaogu.
Unfortunately, the emperor had a good idea, but Xiaogu was not a person who played by the rules. He changed the script without hesitation.
The emperor was a little confused by the change.
Looking at the little Gu kneeling in front of him, he angrily said, "Do you still have the consciousness of a prince?"
Little Gu cried, "I don't want to be a prince, I just want a healthy father."
Although he still didn't know what happened to his father, this posture was clearly entrusting him with his orphan, and he didn't even dare to think deeply.
The emperor stood up, came to little Gu, raised his hand and slapped him hard.
People are dead and still so hard, crossing the endless galaxy to come here to perform a play, is it easy?
But it was all ruined by this bastard son's words.
Even if he didn't have only half a year left to live, he would be pissed to death by this bastard.
"Father, you just want me to take the throne, you have nothing to do, right?"
Gu Yingjun was slapped by the emperor, but he seemed not to feel it, crying and looking at the emperor.
The dog emperor is so boring!
Lin Zijin sighed, put away the door-like big knife with a dull look, and glanced at Bai Muye.
Bai Muye stood up, took Lin Zijin's hand, and walked out of Fang Qing's house.
The several gods standing at the door seemed to have not seen Bai Muye and let them go out.
When they came outside, they took a deep breath.
They looked up at the blue sky above their heads, looked at each other, and walked silently towards the direction of the old Song family.
In Fang Qing's villa.
The emperor sighed to the sky: "Is this fate?"
"My Li royal ancestor had an agreement with the Bai and Lin ancestors in the past. If one day, the descendants of the Li royal family are not good, the outstanding children of the Bai and Lin families can replace them... But the ancestors of the Bai and Lin families have expressed their willingness to support my Li family forever."
"By my generation, hidden dangers have emerged. Some people in the Bai and Lin families have begun to be dissatisfied with the status quo and violated the promise made by their ancestors - to always be loyal to the royal family and never stand on the side of the prince."
"Of course, I am also wrong in this matter. In the past, I also tried to win them over in order to ascend to the throne. Unfortunately, those who were won over by the King of Qi were all successful. And those I won over all rejected me. I was furious about this and did do some wrong things because of it. But after many years in power, looking back on this matter , but found that those who did not stand on the side were the most loyal people. They still followed the ancestral precepts, and they did not waver even when I promised them great benefits. "
"I always felt that I owed those people something, but I also always thought that there was still time... Unfortunately, God played a huge joke on me!"
He looked at Gu Yingjun who was still kneeling there: "Child, your father is dead, he died half a year ago!"
Gu Yingjun suddenly raised his head and stared at the emperor blankly, his lips trembling, his body trembling slightly: "No, no, father, you lied to me, this is not true..."
"This is true!"
The emperor's eyes softened, gently touched Gu Yingjun's head, and stretched out a hand, "You get up."
Gu Yingjun stood up blankly, his mind was blank.
The emperor held his hand, sat on the sofa, and chuckled: "You see, this world is so real and so vivid. Except for the years when I was a prince, I have traveled everywhere, but I have not traveled for many years. Here we go. I have been regretting this until my death, but now... my wish has been forgotten."
Gu Yingjun couldn't bear it anymore, hugged the emperor and cried loudly.
In my memory, apart from when I dared to hug my father so unscrupulously when I was a child, I haven't hugged my father for too many years.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then gently put his hand on his son's back: "You have grown up."
"No, I haven't grown up. Father, you are still young...you..."
Gu Yingjun burst into tears, unable to accept this reality.
"Haha, everyone will die after all. Even the splendid ancient civilization and so many peerless geniuses will eventually be buried in this long river of time? Who am I compared to them?"
The emperor spoke lightly, pushed his son away gently, looked at the crying face, and said again seriously: "When you grow up, you have to learn to face this treacherous world by yourself, and you have to learn to take responsibility. It's something that should have been borne by you. Even if your brother is ambitious, he doesn't have the ability. Fortunately, he doesn't have ambition. Your brother seems weak, but he is actually a smart man, but he is not suitable to sit on the throne in the future. You can reuse him. Among the three of you brothers, you are the most suitable."
"I just forced Xiaobai to swear, half truth and half lie."
"If he swears it, my father will indeed feel more at ease."
"But he refused to swear. My father is still a little unsure."
"That girl Lin Zijin is right. Your father and I are just a dog emperor, with dark thoughts and too much suspicion."
Gu Yingjun cried and shook his head: "That's not the case. In the child's heart, you are the best father! But Xiaobai will not do what you are worried about. The child believes in him."
The emperor looked at him and said: "I am not a good father, but I... consider myself a good emperor. Bai Muye, a young man, really doesn't know anything until he checks. If he checks, he will scare people to death. The things he did are not One thing is simple. Otherwise, even if he was a man of great fortune, as the Imperial Master said, if he did not have the matching strength, wisdom, courage and determination, he would have died countless times. This person, your son, may be your biggest helper in the future, but he may also... become a knife that cuts off your head at any time."
Gu Yingjun wiped the tears on his face carelessly and whispered: "Father, I can't, I believe him!"
"When you are a prince or a prince, you can trust others, and you can trust many people. But when you are an emperor, deep down, you cannot trust anyone! My son, do you know that it is because of your trust in your father that I am in this situation today? The situation!”
The emperor looked at him and said calmly: "So, I will leave behind a power that you don't even know. When one day he really does something rebellious, that power will destroy him at all costs...! "
"Father, you..."
"But I hope that day will never come!"
