"What do you mean? isn't it clear enough!" Nie Chen snorted coldly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Deng Chao's eyes flashed, and after a while, he sighed: "In this way, you know everything." ā
"I knew it from the beginning. ā
"What about my Majesty's actions?" Deng Chao felt a dark in his heart.
"They have entered the ambush circle, and I am afraid that there is more luck than luck. Nie Chen has told the truth.
Deng Chao showed sadness: "I killed them......"
"No, they killed themselves. Or rather, it was your Emperor Majesty who killed them. I have no quarrel with the world, I just want to give the people a place to live in peace, and I have no intention of rebelling and becoming the king.
But this emperor of yours is worried about the sky, and has sent a large army to encircle and suppress it several times. Could it be that you have to slaughter more than 100,000 people in my Qianyue Lake to be satisfied!"
Deng Chao was stunned for a moment, and then said with a calm face: "You Qianyue Lake, gathering more than 100,000 people, this is a huge hidden danger for me to help the wind, and we have to guard against it." If one day you suddenly want to become king, won't we fall into passivity!"
"Claim the king, what do you think with my identity, what kind of folk king will you care about?" Nie Chen snorted.
"Immortal Gu cultivates to a high level, and her ambition will naturally not be the king of this folk. Even if I give you the throne of Fufeng Country, I am afraid that you will disdain it. But you can't represent everything, and you can guarantee that they won't rebel while you're away!"
Nie Chen frowned, hesitated a little, and finally shook his head: "I can't guarantee it." ā
The human heart is the most complex thing in this world. Nie Chen can suppress it for a short time, so that Qianyue Lake and Fufeng Country can coexist in a stable manner. But after a long time, there will definitely be other changes, which is not something that Nie Chen can guarantee.
She was a monk after all, and she couldn't stay in Qianyue Lake forever. And Xiao Jiu and the others also have their own cultivation paths, and Nie Chen doesn't want to restrict their freedom.
Deng Chao sighed: "So the best way is to prevent it before it happens." Before the lake of the Thousand Moon reaches the climate, I will exterminate you. This may be a bit cruel to you, but it is a necessary choice for Fufeng Country. ā
"But one thing, have you ever thought about why Qianyue Lake can gather so many people?" Nie Chen suddenly spoke.
Deng Chao was stunned: "Because ...... Those few upheavals. ā
"Turmoil is just the cause, and the real cause is your Fufeng country. The first turmoil appeared, the female demon Mei Yanyan slaughtered innocents, and hundreds of people were displaced. had to leave his hometown and go to the location of Qianyue Lake.
What they are doing is just to escape the calamity and seek a way to survive.
But at that time, what were you doing in Fufeng Country?
You didn't show up at all, but hid far away, lest you catch fire. You don't even think about the lives and deaths of the ordinary people below.
Don't tell me that there is nothing I can do, the three national teachers you have provided are fully capable of suppressing the female devil. At the very least, it can protect the people from invasion.
The second time, the plague broke out, and the people were once again in dire straits. You're still watching from the sidelines, and you don't have the slightest intention of rescuing. Even when the plague broke out, the people were denied entry to the capital, in order to keep the plague out.
The people were helpless, so they went to Qianyue Lake again, wanting to find a way to live.
Now the devil is dead, the plague is over, and you are out. Say that we are a threat, and we will completely wipe out my Qianyue Lake!
Deng Chao, you are also a scholar and a generation of Confucianism. Tell me, are you worthy of your conscience by doing this?"
"I'm ......" Deng Chao's face turned pale and he staggered back two steps.
Just like Nie Chen said, they never thought about this. All they want is the land of the whole world, and all they want is the unconditional submission of the people.
Nie Chen didn't continue to persecute, just stood there quietly. She believes that Deng Chao is not the kind of unreasonable person, as long as he is allowed to get out of the previous shackles, he will definitely have his own ideas.
Deng Chao was silent for a quarter of an hour, his face gradually calmed down from solemnity, but there was a hint of old age and decadence between his eyebrows.
With a long sigh, Deng Chao nodded towards Nie Chen: "You're right, this is indeed the fault of our Fufeng Country, it was we who abandoned these people and forced them to throw themselves into Qianyue Lake."
However, each is his own master, and I still have to stand by His Majesty's side, this is my principle, and it will not change because of right or wrong. ā
"I'm not reluctant to do this, and I don't expect you to surrender. Nie Chen responded.
Deng Chao nodded: "I'm very strange, how did you find out my identity? I think everything is thorough, and there is nothing missing." ā
"Because someone recognized you. ā
"Who?" Deng Chao was stunned.
"I rescued a little girl on the road, his grandfather is Prime Minister Zuo, and he once saw you at home. This child is very smart, recognizes you at a glance, and points out that you have no wife or daughter. ā
"I see, it seems that God is helping you! She is right, it is not my wife and daughter. It was the daughter of the Great Protector who was dressed as a daughter, and she was ordered to come and assist me. As for the wife, she was a woman who was found by the national teacher as the reason for entering Qianyue Lake. ā
"Did you deliberately get the injuries on her body?" asked Nie Chen.
Deng Chao shook his head: "I don't know, when I saw her, she was already like this." ā
"That'...... You said that you met Hei Feng, this is also what you made up?" Nie Chen tentatively spoke, a little nervous in his heart.
If even this is false, then the previous news about Gu Feng will not fall into the void again.
Deng Chao shook his head: "No, this is true." ā
"You also tell the truth about his words?"
Deng Chao sighed: "Yes, that's what he said." But one thing, strange to me, was that the man seemed to be telling me this on purpose. ā
"Deliberately, if so, then his purpose is to tell me. What is he going to do, is he going to tell me Gu Feng's whereabouts!" Nie Chen was confused for a while.
After a while, Nie Chen shook his head and put aside the doubts in his heart. Turning his head to look at Deng Chao, Nie Chen's eyebrows furrowed slightly, feeling slightly embarrassed.
What should we do with this person?
As if feeling Nie Chen's entanglement, Deng Chao took the first step and said, "Immortal Gu doesn't need to be embarrassed, my mission failed, and I can't go back." ā
"What is the gentleman's plan?"
"I want to stay in Qianyue Lake and do something for the people. Over the years, I have been brilliant for the country and the people, but the result is to serve the royal family. I want to do something real in my lifetime to make up for the mistakes of these years. ā
