Chapter 261: The King of the Huns
Seeing that Ye Xin suddenly stopped talking, Jiu Ge didn't know how to continue for a while, just stood quietly on one side, and after a long time, Ye Xin raised his head again and chuckled:
"I'm old, Wanyanman, he doesn't pose any threat to me, just you. Ye Xin said without pausing: "I know that you do not accept the identity of the Xiongnu princess at present, and I have also heard about your previous deeds in the army, but the princess is the princess, you can never change this identity, one day you will return to the Xiongnu and complete the mission that should belong to you, but before that, you will inevitably be subjected to countless obstacles, so you must first learn to protect yourself, once your identity is exposed, you will face the collapse of all forces, including the Zhao Wang Zhao Wujiang that you are loyal to now." ”
Jiu Ge's heart shook slightly when he heard this, he didn't know his identity before, and he felt that the sky was high and the sky was wide, as long as he wanted, he could choose the life he wanted. But now that he knows the true identity of this body, there seems to be an invisible pressure in his heart, and the sense of responsibility that cannot be avoided and the powerlessness of hiding everywhere make Jiu Ge suddenly regret coming to Shangdi in the first place.
Ye Xin picked up the jade seal on the couch: "The reason why I want to lend this thing to Wan Yan Man by Zhao He is to ask him to send troops to attack Zhao." ”
"Send troops to attack Zhao?" Jiu Ge was stunned: "Will the other forces of the Xiongnu agree? After all, they have only fought a big defeat." ”
"The situation of the Xiongnu is now obscure, there are those who support him Wanyanman, and there are also those who expect the princess to return to preside over the overall situation, and what's more, no one of them says anything on the surface, but secretly wants to overthrow the two and establish themselves as kings. ”
Ye Xin said and sneered: "These nomads have no indoctrination etiquette at all, the law of the jungle has always been their way of acting, today your ability is above him, he will respect you as the king, once he grows stiff wings and feels that he can defeat you, he will replace you mercilessly." ”
"So you let Wan Yanman send troops to attack Zhao in order to make this troubled water even more chaotic?"
Ye Xin turned to Jiu Ge with a smile: "No, I'm here to let them know who is their real king." ”
Jiu Ge was stunned, and said unconsciously: "You shouldn't say it's me, right?"
"That's right. Ye Xin nodded, and then took the second thing on the package, a roll of parchment, "This is what your father prepared for you early in the morning, he knew that Wan Yan Man was ambitious and unscrupulous, so he made an edict for me to keep it earlier." So even if Yan Man gets the jade seal, as long as this edict comes out, the ministers in the court will still stand on the princess's side. ”
Jiu Ge looked at Ye Xin blankly: "That means that in front of this edict, that jade seal is nothing?"
"It naturally has its meaning, in the eyes of the royal family, the jade seal is their glory, sacred and inviolable, but it is limited to this, without the recognition of the predecessor Shan Yu, this jade seal has no additional value in anyone's hands - rights. ”
Jiu Ge was silent, she knew what Ye Xin meant, this edict was her chance to make a comeback, but could she grasp this opportunity by herself?
"I know you're not ready right now. Ye Xin said gently: "I told you that these don't mean to force you to make a decision now, the soldiers pay attention to taking advantage of the situation, and also pay attention to surprise, attacking it unprepared, now the general trend is there, and then it depends on how you choose." After Ye Xin finished speaking, suddenly a mouthful of blood sprayed on the floor, Jiu Ge didn't react, he was instantly startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and squatted down and said:
"Aunt Ye, what's wrong with you?"
Ye Xin smiled bitterly and wiped away the blood from the corners of his lips: "Until now, do you still call me Aunt Ye?"
Jiu Ge was stunned, and finally mustered up his courage after struggling in his heart: "Mother!"
Ye Xin seemed to be a little surprised, and finally pulled Jiu Ge with great joy: "Good boy, my mother knows that you have suffered all these years, but in the Wang family, you can't help yourself, between the country and the family, it is bound to make a trade-off, your aunt Ye Xin was like this before, and now I must do the same." Ye Xin sat up slightly straight, and Jiu Ge hurriedly sat down beside her, letting her lean on top of her.
"Zhao Wujiang is the enemy of my Ye family, Yu family, I Ye Xin has a hundred reasons to break him into thousands of pieces, but for the country, I can't, the so-called pull a hair and move the whole body, I know that as long as I want, I can even take revenge without doing it myself, but what about after that? What about those innocent people? My Ye clan has been killing enemies for the country for generations, what is it for, isn't it the prosperity of the country and the peace of the people? Although my Ye clan is dead now, but now under this boundless governance, the people have a good life, what reason do I have to avenge the Ye clan?"
Ye Xin's mood fluctuations caused her to spit out another mouthful of blood, and Jiu Ge hurriedly wiped the silk for her: "Don't talk yet, let's talk about something later, okay?"
"It's too late. Ye Xin smiled slowly: "Mother knows that you have a good heart, but this way of governing the country is not a good heart can be cured, look at that Zhao Wujiang, if it weren't for his ruthlessness and decisiveness, how could he turn over as a king with a small concubine, even if he was lucky to be the king, if there was no means, this throne would have been taken away by Na Zhao He." ”
"I don't listen to this. Jiu Ge said anxiously: "Tell me first, what happened to you, have you been poisoned, and what is the antidote?"
"Antidote?" Ye Xin's face was pale, and he still said with a smile: "How can the poison in my mother be solved by ordinary people, these years, my mother's life has been enough, and the only regret is that I can't personally help you to the position of Shan Yu." Ye Xin slowed down slightly: "Do you know why my mother married the Huns for the princess in the first place?"
"Yes. Looking at Ye Xin's forbearant appearance, Jiu Ge's eyes turned red unconsciously: "In order to stop the army and improve the relationship with the Huns." ”
"That's one thing. Ye Xin smiled faintly: "Zhaoguo and the Xiongnu are just the beginning, you see the current world, wars are continuous, the people are not living, today this country for a few cities to capture that country, tomorrow that country will send troops to this country for revenge, fighting back and forth, in the end no one will get benefits, but the people who suffer are the common people, displaced, and the day is precarious." ”
"Yes. Jiu Ge nodded: "What my mother said is right, it is the common people who suffer, in this case, you should take care of your body and make suggestions for the safety of the people. ”
"It's all pretended. Ye Xin chuckled and said, "Have you forgotten what I do? How can there be a reason not to test the medicine in refining medicine, it is a three-part poison, not to mention that I still make a poison." ”
