It is said that I convince people with reason

"As an excuse, it cannot deceive these ministers who have become human spirits.

Looking at the motionless slumped on the couch, His Majesty, who had completely lost his pride and dignity as an emperor and only wanted to survive, the ministers fell into silence.

Even Prime Minister Su and others still need to be brave.

Seeing this, the emperor looked at Empress Zhou with some disappointment: "Zi Tong, do you not miss our old feelings so much and want to watch me die?"

His voice was gentle and sad.

"Remember that I promised you that after I abdicate in the future, I will take you to travel all over the country..."

Queen Zhou suddenly sobbed: "Your Majesty..."

She fell down on the couch, holding the emperor's unconscious hand firmly with both hands. She raised her eyes and looked at Yuan Buwei expectantly with a pair of tearful eyes.

"Xuan'er, your father knows he is wrong. Father and son kill each other, God will not tolerate it... Just forgive him for once."

Suddenly, Empress Zhou remembered that her two sons had become closer and closer in recent days, and she quickly said:

"...and Yu'er! Yu'er definitely doesn't want to see this scene. The Queen Mother doesn't want you two brothers to turn against each other in the future, and then you will regret it too late."

Chapter 21 Tyrant 21

"...Qi Yu?"

Suddenly, when Queen Zhou mentioned the little fat girl, her expression did not change and she only looked at her lightly.

Although he came to this world not long ago, Qi Yu is indeed the person he has the closest relationship with in this world, so he doesn't mind pampering him a little sometimes. But the other party was far from enough to have an impact on him.

Since he became conscious, Yuan Buwei has never cared about anyone's mood except for one person, and even compromised, gave in, and changed his original choice.

System 999 came online on time: [Wait, host! 】

The host's unexpected behavior has caused him to become autistic many times before. Now System 999 seems to have a new set of logical algorithms based on Yuan Buwei's past behavior.

It was finally able to vaguely guess the host's thoughts.

But this does not excite System 999. Instead, it makes it extremely depressed: [Host, think twice, you are not really here to be a villain! 】

At this time, System 999 is like an old minister who is earnestly admonishing a foolish king, with "loyalty" written on the surface of the light sphere.

[Our task is to clean up, clean up, clean up. Qi Yu was the protagonist in the original plot. The original story of Qi Xuan killing his father and usurping the throne was just a rumor. If you really did such a thing, kill the protagonist's father and stand on the opposite side of the protagonist, and it would be a road to darkness. . 】

[It is possible for the original body to be cleansed, but for you, the host, you will definitely not be able to be cleansed! 】

"If Qi Yu really wants to be my enemy, then let him be." Yuan Buwei said casually, "The future relationship between me and him depends on his choice."

[Questable——]

"Didn't we agree to appear in true colors at the beginning?" Yuan Buwei asked back, leaving System 999 speechless.

It really doubted whether it had messed up the data and accidentally read something wrong. For example, the devil's bloody light in the sky was mistakenly regarded as a golden light of merit.

But it didn't dare to say or ask.

"An Xin, isn't it just to let the whole world believe that I am a good person? I have become more familiar with this matter."

[But even if the whole world believes that you, the host, are a good person, it is impossible for the protagonist to believe Orz. 】

System 999 stubbornly argued the case.

[Everything the emperor did was to pave the way for Qi Yu to ascend to the throne. Even when he was dying, he did not forget to set a trap for the prince. He summoned the prince to the palace alone, which made the prince more suspected of regicide and usurping the throne in the future. To Qi Yu, he is truly a loving father. If you kill him——】

"Correction of your mistake." Yuan Buwei suddenly interrupted, "What he did was not for Qi Yu, but for himself."

System 999 was suddenly led to a different topic: [Host, how do you know? 】

"Isn't this obvious?" Yuan Buweidao said, "If he really loves his son, he will definitely arrange everything for him early, instead of taking action in a hurry when the matter comes."

In the original plot, until the tyrant ascended the throne, Qi Yu was a dandy who did not do his job properly and never showed any talent or ambition. It wasn't until the tyrant came to power and became more and more ruthless that Qi Yu grew up rapidly amidst several crises.

If when he first received the plot, Yuan Buwei had some doubts that this person was hiding too much, then after meeting Xiao Pang Ji, he no longer had any doubts.

With this little fat girl's scheming and acting skills, she can't even deceive a seven-year-old girl, let alone the civil and military officials of the dynasty?

If the emperor really chose Qi Yu as his successor, how could he be so careless and undisciplined about him? This can be seen from Qi Yu's current situation.

After listening to Yuan Buwei's analysis, System 999 was also stunned: [What a reasonable person. 】

"So I said, he was just doing it for himself."

I couldn't guess what the emperor was thinking.

The prince has held military power for many years and has the sincere support of countless soldiers. It cannot be taken away by the emperor with just a word. If the emperor issues a decree to depose the prince without any reason, it is not certain who will be deposed in the end.

Therefore, the emperor chose to destroy the prince's prestige step by step, break up the prince's power, and then let him take over bit by bit, and everything was handed over smoothly.

Not to mention whether this method is too cruel, but it is indeed a perfect plan. However, something unexpected happened midway, that is, the emperor's health failed.

According to the plot, the emperor will die of illness in three years.

In his early years, he was a arrogant and lustful king, and his body was completely drained. In the ten years since he went south, he seemed to have changed a lot, but the beauty in the harem had not stopped. Now that I am nearly fifty, it is normal for my body to collapse.

But he was unwilling to do so.

Imagine that the emperor has been planning for so long, and he is about to reap the fruits of victory, but in the end he is defeated by an illness that is irreversible by human power. However, the prince is still young and strong, and everything he planned is in vain... In this case, the emperor It’s not surprising that other ideas arise.

System 999: [So, Qi Yu is actually just the spare tire chosen by the emperor out of desperation? Is it better to hand the throne to him than to the prince? 】

Inspired by Yuan Buwei, System 999 tried to analyze himself like a studious student: [It makes sense. Maybe he summoned the prince to the palace alone, and his original plan was to break the cup as a sign, and take the prince with him with swords and axes in hand. 】

As for why he changed his mind later, he probably didn't want to see a great country that he had struggled for many years end up falling into the hands of powerful ministers.

After all, Qi Yu is young and has not yet grown up, so it is better to let the prince continue to stand in front of him.

Thinking along the host's train of thought, I found that everything made sense. System 999 was immersed in the joy of discovering the truth and independent thinking and couldn't extricate itself.

As an intelligent life that has been deliberately restricted by its creator, its ability to break out of its inherent logic and develop new ideas is very weak. Now being led by this host, he actually learned to think proactively and draw inferences from one example. No wonder System 999 is so happy.

System 999, immersed in happiness, has completely forgotten its original intention at the beginning, which was to persuade the host not to cause trouble and to calm down and clean up.

Looking at System 999, which completely deviated from the original idea, I was not very satisfied.

Although he can directly close the system's black room, if the number of times is too many, he is a little worried that the tool system will one day be unable to withstand it and collapse. He will also have to work hard to figure out the technology to travel to different worlds by himself. That would be very troublesome.

——It’s better to continue taking this tool on the road, it’s relaxing and enjoyable :).

·

There is a communication with System 999 in the consciousness, and the time in the outside world is only a blink.

Empress Zhou looked at her eldest son with whom she had not gotten along for many years with tears in her eyes and begged, but she only saw a face with sharp lines and coldness.

The eyebrows and eyes are light, like the snow covering the green pine trees.

Yuan Buwei lowered his eyes and glanced at her. He did not answer her words. Instead, he looked at the emperor curiously: "I have something that I don't understand. I hope my father can answer it."

"Since you are so afraid of the prince, and even arranged for a spy early on, why did you ignore the obstruction of the ministers and send hundreds of thousands of troops to the prince?" When he spoke, his tone was very calm, as if he was jumping out of the game to overlook everything. "Aren't you worried that the prince will become rebellious and turn all his troops against him?"

This question has not been a curiosity for a long time.

Judging from the emperor's various behaviors, Yuan Buwei always felt that the other party seemed to be hiding some secrets, as if he knew the prince's military talents from the beginning.

If in his original world, there was a way to gain insight into the secrets of heaven, it wouldn't be a surprise at all. But this place is clearly no different from the human world.

With Yuan Buwei's current vision, he couldn't figure out the mystery behind it. If not, he wouldn't have wasted so much time on the emperor.

He looked at the emperor inquiringly: "Or should I say, my father already knew something?" ■Si■Tu■Net■

Chapter 22 Tyrant 22

Before the emperor could speak, Queen Zhou's breathing suddenly became rapid and she quickly lowered her head to cover up.

Without noticing it, Yuan glanced at her quietly.

The emperor's expression seemed unchanged.

It's not because he has more energy to nourish his energy, but now he can no longer control the muscles on his face. Even though his heart is shaking, his face still looks numb.

Only the horrified eyes revealed everything.

The question asked by Yuan Buwei really hit the nail on the head and touched the emperor's lifeblood.

If the truth was told, let alone abdicate safely, the emperor even doubted whether he would be regarded as a demon by these ancients and burned.

But now his life is in the hands of the prince. If he cannot satisfy him...

The emperor was on tenterhooks, and his whole heart seemed to be turning back and forth in a frying pan, feeling worried and anxious at the same time.

Yuan Buwei just stared at him lightly and didn't urge him.

After a while, the emperor seemed to have finally made up his mind, and said half-truthfully: "When I was fleeing south, I was confused and saw the immortal dreaming in a trance."

This statement was used by the emperor to deceive the ministers at that time. "He was enlightened by the immortal's instructions". It is not known whether the ministers believed it or not.

"Perhaps the immortals couldn't bear to see my incompetence and ruin of a great country, so they captured a piece of my soul and spent a thousand years in a dream, witnessing the division and reunification of the country, the rise and fall of the dynasty... and it only took one night for me to wake up."

This story, which refers to the legend of gods and has a warning meaning, is quite similar to "Yangliang Yimeng", which makes the ministers doubtful.

The emperor was moved when he saw everyone's expressions.

He suddenly had a good idea and quickly added: "The reason why I have such a repetitive attitude towards the prince is precisely because of that immortal Yi Meng."

As he said that, he sighed and sighed.

There was no need for him to say anything more, the officials had already figured it out automatically. Could it be that His Majesty saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's amazing leadership talent in a dream, but then the Crown Prince did something that His Majesty could not tolerate, so Your Majesty delegated power while being wary and wary?

The emperor showed some helplessness at the right time: "I didn't want to reveal the secret, but..."

System 999: [This emperor can do it. Looking at his skill at whitewashing, this system almost believes it. You look like you are bearing the humiliation in order not to reveal the secret, and you are willing to be misunderstood by everyone without explaining. You also mislead everyone into thinking that you, the host, are a bad guy. ...It’s really a white lotus. 】

"Bai Lian?" Yuan Buwei asked out of curiosity, "What do you mean?"

System 999: [Ahem, it’s actually a beautiful and innocent flower. Generally used to describe bad people. 】

"Really? Then this flower is also very wronged."

System 999: [……]

System 999 was speechless to see that the host of his own was still interested in doing something wrong here. The emperor is about to say black is white and white is black, but the host is not in a hurry?

It’s not because it is indeed
