Abandoned Emperor of Transmigration

Chapter 12【Taste Your Courage】

According to Lei Quan's trembling narration, Xuan Le knew all about Yu Ziwen's arrangements.

In the letter "sent" to Lei Quan, in just a few words, it described in detail the characteristics of the wife of Lei Tian, ​​the second young master of the Lei family, and the accessories she carried with her. Birthmark location, appearance characteristics and carry-on items.

The letter is at the end, simply drawing a monotonous figure.They looked like two fishes, but Lei Quan recognized them at a glance.

It was a small gift he gave to his grandson with his own hands back then, and it was the pattern that the goldsmith stamped on the gold anklet - the picture of double koi.

The golden ring was only too small for the grandson to be over a full moon, so he took it off and put it in a small ivory wooden box by Mrs. Lei Tian.

Except for my own family, no one would care about such a trivial gadget.

Lei Quan was lost and found again, almost going crazy.The lack of successors in Lei's family is the heart of his life. Mrs. Lei couldn't bear the pain of illness a few years ago, and now he is the only one left in the family to support him.He originally thought that maybe he would not be able to avenge this revenge when he was about to die. Seeing that Gu Changcheng's power was growing day by day, if it weren't for Lei Youhan's weight in the emperor's heart, he would have been unable to hold on. .

It's not that he never thought about disarming and returning to the fields, but he was unwilling.He had been waiting, and when the prime minister couldn't help but attack the emperor, he would have a justifiable reason to take revenge.

He has spent his whole life putting imperial power and the country at the top of his heart. It's not that he never hated the emperor who condoned the murderer, but the word "loyalty" of the Lei family's generations is his greatest constraint.Without this "merit" title, perhaps at the moment when his three sons left him, he would have chosen to kill his enemies.Apart from the blood relationship, everyone knows the abilities of the three sons. He taught them hard and spared no effort to defend the country, but what did the country give back to him in the end?

Gu Changsheng pulled the Lei family down, in a small way, it was for his own official career, for his own ambition and self-interest; in a big way, it was harming the emperor and the country!It's a pity that he is still honored as "Lei Weng". The former ever-victorious general lost, lost to power, lost to himself, but has anyone ever sighed for him?

Even the emperor pretended he hadn't seen it, and took it lightly.

An understatement.

Lei Quan clenched his fist and said word by word, "Your Majesty, Min'er is still alive. I can't ignore him, that is... our Lei family's last hope."

Xuan Le's heart felt sour for a while.Facing an old man who has given his life and the lives of his sons to the country, he has been holding back for so many years and struggling to support him, and now it is just such a humble thought... Can he refuse?

Can he say to this old man with gray hair: "For the sake of the country, please give up your only grandson?"

He can say: "You still have a daughter, can I have more children with her?"

Putting aside all the right and wrong, just talking about himself, he has no love for Concubine Ming.How much can he allow himself to do for the Lei family?

Comparing his heart to his heart, if he keeps telling Lei Quan to sacrifice his personal feelings for the sake of the overall situation, but he is not willing to be happy with Concubine Ming for the sake of the overall situation, maybe he will meet someone he likes again in the future and alienate Concubine Ming from then on.What's more, how can human life and death be compared with romantic affairs?

Well, don't tell him that creating a human is a matter of life and death.

Since I don't have this awareness, do I want an old man who has endured so much pain to give up all his feelings?Maybe other emperors can do it, maybe for the country itself, as a court official loyal to the imperial power, the country and the people, he has already lost the qualification to have personal emotions, but he is not "other emperors", he can't do it.

He is just an outsider, doing a mission to revive the Xuan Kingdom.Do you want to drive NPCs into hell for a mission?Can this NPC still be respawned?Obviously, the answer is no.

Xuan Le took a deep breath.He, just, no, believe it!

Is this the only way to complete the mission?

There is an old saying that 36 moves are the best plan.

"..."

No, I was thinking about it, not this one!All roads lead to Rome!

Taking a step back, the sea and the sky are as wide as the sky, the best is like water, water is good for all things without fighting, put it to death and then live again!

Emma is so smooth.Xuan Le shook his head, Ji Xing coughed lightly beside him, "Your Majesty?"

Lei Quan didn't look up, just knelt silently.

Xuan Le sighed, "There will always be a way."

Lei Quan was startled, thinking that the emperor wanted to ask him to give up Lei Zhongmin.His fingers slowly clenched into fists on the intricately patterned carpet, and all the emotions rising in his eyes settled one by one, gradually becoming dazed.

Why...why has he guarded this country...for so many years?

The children's smiles when they were young flashed before my eyes, and the warm days were like sand on my fingertips, which I couldn't grasp.All that remains is regret and anger.

"How did Yu Ziwen promise to pay back your daughter-in-law and grandson?"

Lei Quan said stiffly: "As long as I don't move my troops, someone will send them back in half a month."

"Are you going to regret it after sending it back?"

"Since they can come and go to the Xuan Kingdom at will, it is easy to assassinate a person."

It is true.

Xuan Le rubbed her chin, "Just don't send troops? That's fine?"

"I also hope that the old minister will look at the emperor." Lei Quan said: "The emperor... just be obedient."

Ji Xing was furious, his eyes widened, his handsome face twisted instantly, "Presumptuous!!"

Xuan Le raised her hand, stopping Ji Xing's movement, "Just let me be obedient, for that person, it's already a big step back."

Ji Xing couldn't believe it, and Lei Quan also heard something strange in his words, and looked up at the person on the throne in a daze.

"I once heard a story." Xuan Le said slowly: "A long time ago, there was a country called Yue State, and its leader was Goujian. To avenge the murder of his father, he abused Gou Jian all day long, and made him the majestic ruler of the Yue Kingdom to do the work of servants, visit the tomb, feed the horses, boil water and chop firewood... Gou Jian put down his figure, and served Fuchai with all his heart. Fu Chai misunderstood that he was loyal to Wu, so he sent him back to Yue."

Ji Xing and Lei Quan never knew there was such a story, and they were fascinated by it for a while,

Xuan Le put his hand on his chin, closed his eyes, and said slowly: "After Gou Jian returned to the Yue Kingdom, he vowed to take revenge. He was afraid that the comfort in front of him would kill his ambition, so he hung a gall in the place where he ate. , He tasted the bitterness first, and asked himself: "Have you forgotten the shame of the past?", He also removed the mat, used firewood as a mattress, and whipped himself all day long to make the country strong and the people change. To get rich, only when the country is strong and prosperous can the country of Yue not be oppressed by the country of Wu."

Lei Quan and Ji Xing looked at each other in blank dismay, the hall was unusually quiet, only Xuan Le's voice flowed slowly.

Xuan Le closed her eyes, and said lazily: "Later, Yue State became stronger and stronger, and the master of Wu State was so arrogant that he didn't pay attention to Yue State Goujian, and was finally besieged and destroyed by Yue State. King Goujian of Yue rectified the civil war and worked hard to produce. In one war after another, he finally became the last overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period, and established a great career. His deeds were also praised by later generations as "stealing courage through hardship."

Lei Quan murmured: "Trying your courage..."

The question mark above the head of the quarterly salary: "What period is the Spring and Autumn Period?"

Xuan Le opened her eyes, and there was a soft beep in her ear.

Xuan Le, with an expression that I know everything about the earth and half of the heaven, said condescendingly: "Don't care about the details, this is just a story. Spring and Autumn...is a time."

Ji Xing never questioned Xuan Le, so he nodded, "I see, Your Majesty is wise."

Lei Quan looked at Xuan Le, "The emperor means...?"

"It's unbearable to suffer. Since we can't fight the front, we will come secretly."

Lei Quan's eyes suddenly flickered, and his tone changed due to his excitement, "The emperor's words...are you serious?!"

"What does it matter if there is only an abolished emperor? Yu Ziwen is right. I have been emptied for more than ten years. Now it's just a different master. It doesn't make any difference."

Ji Xing frowned, "Your Majesty, don't underestimate yourself!"

"That's the truth, why underestimate yourself." Xuan Le laughed twice, and looked at Lei Quan in the hall, "You can do what Yu Ziwen tells you to do. If you can save your relatives, I will pay for some sins." .”

Lei Quan was so excited that he couldn't speak, his eyes were red, and he knocked his head hard several times.

"Your majesty... Shengming!"

Is this still holy?Xuan Le sighed in his heart, this is a dog jumping over the wall in a hurry, following the tricks, pushing the boat along the way... Uh... Is there any other words that can be used?

[System: Chinese Ancient and Modern Dictionary, whether to read it. 】

Xuan Le: "..."

"But once Yu Ziwen sees through the scheme, you and your family..." Xuan Le looked at Lei Quan.

Lei Quan raised his head and said calmly: "I will do my best to cooperate with the emperor. As for the family members, I will do my best to protect them."

This time, he didn't want to lose the country and family.

Is there a perfect solution in this world?Obviously not.

Is there a perfect ending without any regrets or blemishes in this world?Obviously not.

But as long as I try my best, live up to my conscience, and have an explanation for myself, it is enough.

Last time, he watched Gu Changsheng stretch out his evil claws towards his family.He was powerless to resist at the time, and he regretted his mistakes.

And now, he won't make the same mistakes again.Do your best in everything, even if you fight this old life, under the nine springs, you will have the face to see your old wife and sons again.

Anyway, I can say one thing, in the end, he did not, treason.

The big stone in his heart fell suddenly, and Lei Quan was startled to feel that his hands and feet were weak for a while, and his whole body collapsed.

Drowsiness and exhaustion came over me all at once.

After all, it was because he was old, but he couldn't stand up this time, and just passed out like this.

"Put the general down to rest." Xuan Le stood up, looking at the old man who just passed out on the ground with his buttocks pouted, he was filled with emotion.

"Announce it to the public tomorrow morning." Xuan Le pondered for a moment, and said, "The Prime Minister of the country filled his own pockets and framed the pillars of the country. He was deeply affected, so he couldn't afford to be seriously ill. I will not see outsiders for the time being. The news of Lei Quan is also released in this way. It is too much to say. Missing loved ones."

The quarterly salary should be, and asked: "How many days does the emperor need to be seriously ill?"

"..." Xuan Le felt that this conversation was a bit weird, but he thought about it for a moment, and said, "Three days."

"Yes."
