"I will leave, I have come to say goodbye to you, and I have the right to say goodbye."

Fu Deng looked at Pei Shengqin, his face was as usual, and he said with a light smile.

In the camp, the Tiance sergeant was eating, and when he saw the handsome father and son returning from a distance, he took a look at it, and then buried his head and continued to eat, and there was not so much red tape in the barracks.

Only a young man put down his job, hurriedly ran to Pei Yuanluo's side, and bowed: "Uncle, brother." ”

Pei Yuanluo explained to Pei Shengqin: "This is the widow of Liu Weichen and Liu Dudu of Moxi, Liu Dudu is a friend of his father, and it is a good family." Before Liu Dudu died, he asked Bo Bo to defect to his father, and His Majesty knew about it, so he ordered his father to raise Bo Bo. Originally, Bo Bo should have been sent to my Tiance army a long time ago, but he had been borrowed by Lord Frog to inquire about the specific situation of the seven counties outside the Saiwai, and it was delayed until today. ”

Liu Weichen Pei Shengqin remembered, and it appeared many times in Pei Shengqin's memory, and he often came to visit Pei's family and talked and laughed with Pei Yuan.

Bobo bowed respectfully to Pei Shengqin: "Liu Bobo has seen Brother Shi, and asked Brother Shi to take care of him." ”

When Pei Shengqin saw Bo Bo, he remembered something. Seeing the blue and red giant blade on Bobo's back, his gaze became even more complicated and weird. He touched his head: "The Pei and Liu families have been friends for generations, since Uncle Liu was killed, my father is your father, I am your brother, you and I should be like biological brothers!" ”

Resist the Northern Wei Dynasty, attack the Northern Liang, punish the Later Qin, behead the Southern Yan, and break the Southern Song Dynasty! Tongwan City, Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, Hehe and Tianlian!

He created a surname in the name of one person and supported a country by himself.

So that thirty years later, the world knows: Helian Bobo has a knife in his hand, and the world is invincible!

Pei Shengqin knew that he had picked up a treasure this time.

After greeting Bo Bo, Pei Shengqin looked at Fu Deng. After being stunned for a moment, he said helplessly: "Lord Wang, go in and talk!" ”

Since the Qin Emperor had issued an edict ordering local officials to stay in Chang'an temporarily, Fu Deng should naturally not be an exception. A person who should not have said goodbye suddenly came to say goodbye, this matter is obviously not normal. Since it is not a normal thing, it is inconvenient to talk about it in public.

Pei Yuanluo went to eat with Bo Bo, and Pei Shengqin found an empty tent and walked in side by side with Fu Deng.

"Your Majesty's will is to show grace to all meritorious officials and grant rest, including you, you should stay in Chang'an." Pei Shengqin and Fu Deng are familiar with each other, and they are not very polite when they speak in private, which is a good show of friendship. Due to the worship in the historical memory of his previous life, Pei Shengqin was always easy to have a good impression of Fu Deng.

Fu Deng smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Qiu Qing is already packing her bags, and we will go to Your Majesty to bid farewell in person later, and Your Majesty will agree if you want to come." As you know, the real purpose of Your Majesty's will is to keep those traitorous ministers behind, and it will not target our loyal ministers. ”

Fu Deng was originally a clan, and this time he took the initiative to lead the army to the king, and his loyalty and righteousness were demonstrated, and he made military achievements. In any case, His Majesty will never think that he is a traitor, and if Fu Deng wants to resign, His Majesty will most likely grant it.

Pei Shengqin frowned: "Why?" ”

"I grew up in Longxi, and Longxi is my hometown. After going out for a long time, I was homesick. ”

Pei Shengqin admires Fu Deng's ability to speak with great sincerity. Pei Shengqin was silent for a moment and said, "You should know that for others, staying in Beijing and not returning to their hometown may be a torment, but for you, this is a great creation!" ”

Fu Deng, one of the three most powerful contenders for the throne of the next Great Qin Emperor. Fu Deng's advantage over Fu Hong and Fu Pi was that he had a powerful old father-in-law, which enabled him to gain the support of the local army in Longxi; The disadvantage of Fu Deng is that he is located in Longxi, far away from Chang'an, the center of imperial power. Once there is a change in the imperial court, perhaps Fu Deng, who is far away in Longxi, has not yet reacted, and the dust has settled in Beijing.

According to the Qin law, the vassal king was not allowed to stay in Beijing without a reason. This time, Emperor Qin's will gave Fu Deng a chance to stay in Chang'an openly!

Fu Deng smiled self-deprecatingly and said in a low voice: "The inheritance of the imperial throne depends on Your Majesty's mind. Your Majesty's heirs are luxuriant, and this great Qin country should be passed on to His Majesty's son after all. Although I am a royal family, I am not a descendant, and I am still a grandchild of His Majesty. In any case, the throne is not something that belongs to me, and the so-called 'Changxian Sanli' is just a joke in the market, and it should not be true. ”

Pei Shengqin looked at Fu Deng seriously, and said word by word: "Even if Your Majesty is inclined to choose the prince from among his heirs, Your Majesty must also admit that all the children of the royal family, including you, are qualified to succeed to the throne. Because this was an edict issued by His Majesty himself, he had to admit it, otherwise his move to depose Emperor Fusheng back then would be illegal! Moreover, the choice of the prince does not only depend on His Majesty's original intention, but also depends on the will of the people of the world. You already have a good name, and you have the support of the Longxi military, once you can become powerful in the future, Your Majesty can't let you be the prince! ”

Emperor Fu Jian of Qin would naturally want to hand over the Great Qin Jiangshan to his son, whether it was Fu Pi or Fu Hong. The father dies and the son succeeds, this is the simplest truth, and it is also human nature. However, due to the special origin of Fu Jian's throne, he must admit that Fu Deng and even the rest of the royal family have the right to inherit this empire, which is also the legal basis for him to replace the deposed emperor Fu Sheng. With this layer of legal theory, Fu Deng is qualified to participate in the competition for the storage position openly, and even if Emperor Qin is unwilling in his heart, he cannot stop it. As long as you have the qualifications to participate in the succession, no matter whether there are many difficulties ahead, there is still hope.

Fu Deng looked at Pei Shengqin very suspiciously: "Pei Hou really wants this king to fight for this throne?" In the past few months, His Royal Highness has been trying to win you over, and this king can see it, I don't believe you don't see it. ”

Pei Shengqin raised a smile and said firmly: "Your Majesty is almost in the year of the Mandate of Heaven, and in the future, there will always be someone who will take over Your Majesty to protect these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers." You are the most suitable person, there is no one! ”

Fu Deng looked directly into Pei Shengqin's eyes, and sighed after a long time: "Pei Shengqin, I believe in you." ”

This is Pei Shengqin's most sincere words, in the history of his previous life, Fu Deng was able to accept orders at the most dangerous moment, and forcibly extended the national honor for Qianqin for ten years, which has proved his ability. If Fu Hong or Fu Pi succeed to the throne, they may be able to lead the former Qin to strength, but they may also lead the former Qin to decline. There are too many unknowns in this, and Pei Shengqin doesn't want to gamble. For Pei Shengqin, it is undoubtedly the best choice for Fu Deng to inherit the throne, at least Pei Shengqin can be sure that the national strength will not regress after Fu Deng succeeds to the throne.

Of course, even if Pei Shengqin is now a marquis, the heir to the throne of the Great Qin Dynasty is still too far away from him, and it is definitely not something he can touch and participate in now. But Pei Shengqin knew that if he wanted Fu Deng to succeed to the throne, he must first want to compete for the throne. But at this time, Fu Deng obviously had the intention of retreating, which Pei Shengqin was unwilling to accept.

"Sheng Qin, thank you for giving me such a high evaluation." Fu Deng was silent for a moment before he said slowly: "It's just that you know that now the crown prince and the eldest prince are bound to compete for the throne, and even several other princes may also participate in it. Each more person participates, and the competition becomes more intense. Although my Great Qin national strength is strong, it may not be able to withstand too much internal friction. All the consumption caused by the upper royal family to seize the heir will eventually be passed on to the people through taxes, which is not what I want! ”

"Instead of participating in a competition with an uncertain future, it is better to return to Longxi and be a rich and idle king with peace of mind."

What Fu Deng said was very sincere, and Pei Shengqin also believed that he really thought so. In history, after Emperor Fu Pi was killed, Kou Yi took the two princes to fight out of the siege, and traveled thousands of miles to Longxi to see Fu Deng. At that time, Fu Deng even proposed to set up the emperor's son Fu Yi as the emperor, and in the end, it was countless ministers who wept blood and advised that "the country should be established as a long monarch", and Fu Deng reluctantly agreed to inherit the throne.

For the sake of the Great Qin world, I don't mind giving up my personal honor and disgrace, this is Fu Deng. From this point of view alone, Edon can even be described as a saint.

Pei Shengqin sighed: "It seems that you have already thought through these things, and if you want to return to Longxi, you are deliberately withdrawing from the competition for the storage position, and at the same time, it will also show the whole world that you have no intention of winning the throne." ”

Edon was silent, and this was the acquiescence.

Pei Shengqin thought for a while and said: "King Nan'an, have you ever thought that Mao Shuai is now almost clearly waving the flag for you, if you can't succeed to the throne, no matter who becomes the new king, how should Mao Shuai deal with himself?" ”

Fu Deng frowned, if it really came to the time that Pei Shengqin said, even if the new monarch didn't want Mao Xing's old life, Mao Xing wouldn't want to hold the military power anymore. Which emperor would retain the military power of his rivals for the throne?

Pei Shengqin persuaded again: "Looking at the current posture, there is no way to settle this storage position safely. There are always people to fight for, one more of you and one less of you, the difference is not very big. During this period, even if one more person will cost the people and money, it will only be a small righteousness after all. If you can succeed to the throne smoothly, become a Ming monarch, let the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment, and let my China's prestige spread all over the world, this is the great righteousness! How could the king of Nan'an give up great righteousness for the sake of small righteousness? ”

Pei Shengqin's words reached Fu Deng's heart, he was ready to return to Longxi, not because he didn't want to fight for the throne, but because he didn't want to fight. Fu Deng has great ambitions in his heart, and it is his long-cherished wish to stabilize the world!

Fu Deng was a little shaken, thought about it, but still said: "The Longxi military's support for me is not as firm as the world thinks. Most of them firmly follow my father-in-law, Mao Shuai, and they support me only to carry out Mao Shuai's will, which is not from the heart. Compared with the crown prince and His Royal Highness, I have no bargaining chips except for the support of the Longxi military. ”

Regarding this, Pei Shengqin naturally knew it in his heart for a long time. Because of this, after Mao Xing's death, there were many arrogant generals in Longxi who disobeyed Fu Deng. Later, it was with the help of Qi Qing that Fu Deng was able to control the situation in Longxi. It is not so much that the Longxi military supported Fu Deng, but that they supported Mao Xing. And Pei Shengqin knows more than Fu Deng, for example, Fu Deng doesn't know that Mao Xing will die in a few years.

Pei Shengqin understood these difficulties, but this did not affect his fighting spirit. As long as Fu Deng is willing to fight, no matter how big the difficulties and ups and downs, there is a chance to overcome, I am afraid that Fu Deng will not fight!

Successfully provoked Fu Deng's fighting spirit, Pei Shengqin smiled and said: "As long as the king of Nan'an stays in Chang'an, there will always be a chance." Your Majesty's health is still acceptable, and there is still time to live, even if you start from scratch, you still have time. ”

"Sheng Qin is willing to follow this king to overcome obstacles?"

"Dare to disobey?"

Fu Deng didn't say anything more, straightened his robe, straightened his crown, stood up straight, and bowed slowly to Pei Shengqin.

Pei Shengqin smiled, and after tidying up his makeup in the same way, he bowed to Fu Deng.

This time the worship is set for the righteousness of the future monarch and minister.
