The rebirth of Jiangshan is hired

"Because this is the truth—so as long as everything goes according to this, it can actually be explained."

Mu Qiu nodded lightly, replied slowly, and his eyes were a little dark: "I once wanted to expose this matter, but now is not the time. Now His Highness is not powerful enough to rule in court. Standing in the hall, if you break everything at this time, I'm afraid it will affect His Highness himself, and the gain will not be worth the loss."

"You poked it all out—but what about you?"

Guan Tiantai couldn't help being surprised, raised his eyebrows and looked at him, then suddenly covered his mouth and coughed a few times, then gasped and said in a low voice: "Have you ever thought about it, even if you have the blessing of your highness, you are still an outsider. The attitude of the royal family to outsiders is not too kind, even if the third prince is really a foster son, if you expose this matter, it will not be good for you."

"I know—but as long as this matter gets out, the emperor will definitely know it's me..."

Mu Qiu couldn't help but wryly smiled, sighed helplessly, shook his head in silence for a moment, then raised his head to look at him again and said, "You don't intend to do any more struggles, do you just want to wait like this to die?"

"if not?"

Guan Tiantai wiped away the blood from his lips with a wry smile, turned his head to the side, with a little unwillingness in his eyes, but gradually returned to the exhaustion of resignation to fate: "Otherwise, what else can be done, but it's just resignation to fate... If you don't resign to fate, yes Because you still have concerns, things you want to do, and people you want to protect. But what if I don’t accept my fate? I didn’t even think that the place where I was born and raised me would become me. The death talisman—you Han people said that fallen leaves return to their roots, but I can be regarded as fallen leaves returning to their roots..."

"I can't die, but it's only because His Highness doesn't want me to die."

Mu Qiu smiled helplessly, shook his head and sighed softly: "Actually, sometimes I also want to persuade His Highness to give up—after all, such illusory hopes will only end up giving people more painful suffering and torture. It's better to give up those unrealistic ones." The obsession, to walk the path it should have gone... But I know better than anyone that His Highness will never give up willingly like this. Even if I tell His Highness, I don't want to live anymore, I want to I beg His Highness to let me go, His Highness will never agree, and will definitely use all means to hold me back, even if it is just to live an extra day or an hour..."

"It's just a matter of gnashing one's teeth in one's life. For your highness, you can endure it again. In fact, there is nothing you can't survive."

Guan Tiantai responded with a smile, but his eyes softened. He looked at him and said slowly: "Actually, I envy you very much——Although your Highness seems to be out of touch, he still knows it in his heart. He is just too young. , and lack of experience, that's why he was deceived by his fake brother for a while, but who can be deceived forever? Besides, he really cares about you, I can see that if one day you are gone, then I'm afraid he has to lose half of his soul..."

"His Highness is actually a very simple person. Whatever he decides will not change. It was like this before, and it is still like this now."

Mu Qiu replied in a warm voice, with a little thought in his eyes.Guan Tiantai looked at his expression for a while, then sat up straight again, looked at him seriously and said, "I don't live long anyway, so I'll tell you a few words from my heart - I originally thought that those few of you Among the three princes, the third prince is the most likely to win that seat, but according to you, he is not your great emperor's own son, so no matter how high he jumps, he may not be able to take advantage of it in the end. But in your mind, is it possible that you want to support your highness to climb to that position?"

"Don't you want to do this too?"

Mu Qiu looked at him, with bright and sharp eyes: "Even if you were committed to your brother before and were willing to obey his order to assassinate me and Your Highness, isn't it just to strengthen your brother's position so that he can take over the position of your brother?" Did you get the position of the Great Khan? When you had a misunderstanding, I really wanted to believe that you were so angry that you wanted to take revenge, but now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I don't believe that with your determination, you will be so careless You slipped your tongue and casually led me and His Highness over..."

"I wanted to help him up, but I was worried that his frizzy temper would force a more ruthless me in the future, so I really moved my hands at him and smashed his head while he was sleeping. cut it off."

Guan Tiantai couldn't help shaking his head with a wry smile, and sighed helplessly: "I'm terribly worried now—this illness came so suddenly that I didn't even have time to make all the preparations. In the current situation, I want to die as soon as possible. I helped him up before, and I wanted him to live a peaceful life as a wife. So I also thought about it for a few days, and finally came up with a way..."

"any solution?"

For a moment, Mu Qiu couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so he frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.Guan Tiantai lowered his head and gave a wry smile, raised his hand and hugged his head vigorously, and said in a low voice after a long silence: "Actually——I don't know if I'm doing the right thing. But what happened these days, and It really worries me... The Xiongnu has grown stronger these years, and the mentality of the tribal leaders is also different from the past. Although most of the cooperation is coerced, the main reason is that a considerable part of the Xiongnu The forces think that we can win. It is precisely this kind of mentality that produces pride, complacency and dictatorship. I have been in your Central Plains for many years, and of course I know that your soldiers are not strong and horses are not strong, because you have not In the war, your military strength has been weakened. But when the two armies are fighting, how can you just see who is better at fighting? The terrific tricks your highness once said made me shudder. I am afraid that one day if you are not careful, you will use it. We are forced to die in this desert step by step..."

"You mean—do you want His Highness to do you a favor and destroy all the Huns again?"

Mu Qiu couldn't help but frowned, and asked in a low voice.He never thought that Guan Tiantai would have such a crazy idea, and he was completely stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, it was not completely unreasonable.Guan Tiantai gave a wry smile, leaned his body back hard, and sighed very lightly: "I have no other choice...do you think I have the heart to see my compatriots rushing up alive to see you off?" Your Highness? If I can live for another ten years—as long as ten years, I am also confident that I will break up the Xiongnu and rearrange it, so that the tribes cannot have different opinions. But I don’t have ten years, I can only Make up your mind to use this method to cut off the possible cancer, save the Xiongnu, and also save my brother..."

"I can't agree with your belief, but I still respect your decision."

Mu Qiu was silent for a moment, then nodded lightly again, stood up and looked at him and said, "I'm going out to invite Your Highness to come in, you should know what to say and what not to say."

"Don't worry, I know."

Guan Tiantai nodded, but suddenly pulled his clothes lightly, and looked up at him: "If you see my two younger brothers——you should also know what to say and what not to say... ..."

"I know, I won't say much."

Mu Qiu nodded slightly, stepped out of the tent quickly, and invited Song Zichen who had been waiting impatiently to pull his horse's mane in.Unexpectedly, he would have the opportunity to go in and listen, and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince was flattered, and hurriedly followed him into the tent: "Old Guan, you still think about me—why are you looking for me? If you want me to bleed you, I can actually take a knife for you—”

"Forget it, I don't have any medicine, do you want me to drink your blood?"

Sure enough, Guan Tiantai remembered the agreement with Mu Qiu, waved his hands angrily, raised his body and looked at him, his expression became solemn: "I am destined not to live, and I didn't expect to linger like this To live—try to lure the two of you here because I want to give you a big victory, I don’t know if you can handle it.”

"Big victory—how big is it?"

Song Zichen hadn't been able to keep up with the rhythm of the topic, so he was taken aback by his tone, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly: "Didn't we originally discuss that we would win? You won't want to renege on your promise again, and suddenly change your mind?" ..."

"Originally, what I said was just a small fight, and I asked you to win a few games. This time, I will directly give you the [-]-man tribe of the Huns. As long as you can eat it, it doesn't matter how crippled you are."

Guan Tiantai looked at him, with fanaticism almost obsessed in his eyes, he took a few breaths before he said again: "Have you thought it over, do you agree?"

"Ten thousand tribes—three?"

Song Zichen couldn't help but frowned, and after thinking carefully for a moment, he suddenly understood his intention: "You want to pave the way for your brother—with the lives of 3 people? But haven't you thought about it, even though they and you It is not a tribe, but it is also a compatriot of the same clan, if they are destroyed, your power will be greatly weakened..."

"The Huns are too complacent now. If this continues, sooner or later they will attack you in the Central Plains. If I don't believe it, you will stand by and watch without using your vicious tricks."

Guan Tiantai stared at him closely, paused for a moment, and then said slowly: "Rather than being crippled and maimed by you at that time, I would rather give you 3 people now, at least within the hundred years you live. , the Huns are unable to attack the Central Plains anymore, and there is still a way out..."

"You're really ruthless. If it were me—even if there was any life-and-death enmity, I wouldn't be able to do such a thing."

Song Zichen couldn't help saying something in a low voice, patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said after a moment of silence: "But I won't stop you, and I'll even cooperate with you—since you want them to die, then I will Just accept it. For me to settle down a century-old foundation in the Central Plains, no matter how many crimes I have on my hands, it will not be too much injustice."
