Chapter 49: Talking
"Master Xu, I have something I want to ask you..."
Ying Ke looked at Xu Xian with complicated eyes and said.
Hearing this, Xu Xian immediately made a loyal look, and said solemnly, "The king has an order, Xu Xian will go to the soup and fight the fire, and he will not give up!" β
Xu Xian's posture made the shame in Yingke's eyes even worse, and when he thought of his other two sons, he said what he thought in his heart regardless of "When Xuan'er went to the Song Kingdom, he went to the King of Song to discuss, although the King of Song agreed to send me 100,000 Qin people back to Guguan, but set three conditions. The first two can still be done, but the third condition makes it difficult for the lonely good student. β
In fact, Xu Xian had already begun to anticipate the result when Ying Xuan went to the Tang and Song dynasties, and for this third condition, Xu Xian had actually estimated six or seven points in his heart. But Xu Xian couldn't point it through directly, and followed Ying Ke's words and asked, "I don't know what King Song wants?" β
Ying Ke sighed and said, "King Song is worried that my Qin State will unload the mill and kill the donkey, and afterwards, Qin and Song will be separated by thousands of miles, if my Qin State breaks its promise, Song State will be helpless." I want to hostage my son to the Song Kingdom, so as to stabilize the hearts of the monarchs and ministers of the Song Kingdom. β
"Sure enough..."
Xu Xian thought about it at home for a few days, and guessed this result. At this moment, I was not surprised at all when I heard Ying Ke say it. He didn't forget to make an angry and humiliated expression on his face, and said to Ying Ke bitterly, "This King Song is really hateful!" Doesn't he know that proton is a great act of humiliating the country, and as soon as my Qin State is about to be restored, he wants to proton Yu Song, which makes the people of my Qin State view the future of my Qin State! β
Ying Ke closed his eyes, shook his head constantly, and said, "There are too many thorns on the road to the restoration of the Qin State, and the price to pay is even more. This is just the beginning..."
"The two sons are both dragons and phoenixes among people, and letting any of them imprison Song Guo is tantamount to ruining their future!" Speaking of this, Xu Xian's eyes were filled with anxiety, as if these two were his children.
"I didn't intend to hold the two of them hostage to Song Guo, I thoughtβ" Ying Ke cast a meaningful look at Xu Xian.
Xu Xian was shocked by Ying Ke's eyes, and asked, "The king wants Shengjie to go to the Song Kingdom?" β
Ying Ke didn't speak, but the expression on his face told Xu Xian very clearly. At this time, Xu Xian's plan was already considered a success, but he couldn't be happy in his heart, he could clearly feel how much Ying Ke loved these two sons, and he wanted to help Ying Shengjie ascend to the throne, and the difficulty was not ordinary.
"The existence of Shengjie is only known to His Majesty, Yue'er and the Great King, even if you want to send him to the Song Kingdom, I'm afraid the Song Kingdom will not believe it."
Ying Ke had already expected this, and he had thought of his words in advance, and said, "If I canonize Xu Yue'er, the biological mother of Shengjie, as the queen of Qin, will King Song still not believe it?" β
Yingke's words really shocked Xu Xian, originally Xu Xian just wanted the Xu family to be removed from the list of exploitation of the family after the founding of the country, and seek some benefits by the way. However, Ying Ke wanted to directly crown Xu Yue'er as the queen, which was a surprise for Xu Xian. In this case, the Xu family can be regarded as relatives of the emperor, as long as they act low-key in the future, they will be able to become the head of the family sooner or later.
At that time, the Xu family will have enough strength to support Ying Shengjie to ascend to the throne, and the position of the head of the Xu family will be guaranteed for at least a hundred years. Of course, the premise of all this is that the Qin state does not perish again.
"Although Shengjie is the nephew of his subordinates, in order to recover the Qin State, his subordinates have an unshirkable responsibility! It's just..."Xu Xian first expressed his loyalty in righteous words, and looked at Ying Ke halfway through speaking.
"Just what? You said! β
Xu Xian sighed, a trace of guilt in his eyes, and said, "Since the sister was pregnant with Shengjie, she was afraid that the Xu family's reputation would not be guaranteed, so she grounded herself in a separate courtyard of the Xu family. In the past ten years, he has not taken half a step, and has been taking care of Ying Shengjie to grow up. As the head of the Xu family, I, as an uncle, also have to deal with a lot of things every day, and it is rare for me to see their mother and son several times a year. With my relationship with Shengjie, I can't say anything about him, this child only listens to his mother. β
After hearing this, the first thought in Yingke's mind was shock. More than ten years! I have lived in one place for more than ten years, doing the same thing every day, and I can't see anyone except my son, who is growing up. Days like this are enough to drive a normal person crazy!
"She... Are you okay? β
Ying Ke's voice was a little choked, and he remembered a beautiful and shy lady more than ten years ago, who ruined her time for more than ten years because she lost her sex after drinking, and even did not take any responsibility for it.
In fact, Ying Ke still wants to be responsible for Xu Yue'er in his heart, but every time he thinks of the Liu family, who has been with his childhood sweetheart for more than 20 years, and Ying Xuan, who has just been born and is not in good health, and Ying Hao, who is only a few years old to go to his mother's love, Ying Ke instantly gave up this idea and was determined to raise these two children to adulthood.
Of course, in the past ten years, Ying Ke also happened to recall Xu Yue'er's beautiful face and the baby in her belly, but he always thought that Xu Yue'er, as the sister of the Xu family patriarch, should live a life of fine clothes and food, but he didn't expect that their mother and son would live such a rough life.
"At first, she often missed the king, and even painted by herself. After a few years, his temperament began to become claustrophobic, and when he went down to visit their mother and son, he also ignored them. Xu Xian didn't say half a lie, but said it truthfully.
Win Ke closed his somewhat moist eyes and raised his head slightly, stopping the tears that were about to fall.
Over the years, in order to recover the Qin State, he did not take good care of Liu's body, and when Liu's pregnancy was caused by dystocia and death, he heard from the doctor about the changes in Liu's body in those two years. Because of alcoholism, he ruined the honor that a woman regarded as more important than life, and he had not been able to give this woman half a name, so that she lived alone in a deserted courtyard for more than ten years, and let an unborn child lose his father's love.
For the sake of an empty illusion of recovering the Qin State, he ruined two women and three children. At this point, Ying Ke couldn't help but wonder if he was right or wrong to do this......
"Ke'er, don't look at the life on our island so far, in the past, my Win clan leveled the six countries and joined the Shenzhou Continent! On the other side of that coast is the Shenzhou Continent, where hundreds of millions of people live, and my Win clan used to be the masters of that land! β
"Ke'er, do you know why my Win clan ended up on this island? That's because of the state of Chu! Under the slogan of overthrowing tyranny, they burned, killed, looted, slaughtered cities and burned land. β
"Qin is the country of tigers and wolves? Hehe~ The Qin State has been slaughtered for hundreds of years, has it ever slaughtered a city? When did you loot the belongings of the people of the enemy country? These are the labels that those hypocrites have set for us! They are the real tigers, leopards and jackals! β
The words of the elders are vivid in his mind, and he has been instilled with these thoughts by these elders since he was a child.
There is nothing wrong with recovering the Qin State, but he is wrong again by letting down so many people. But all this is for the sake of the Qin State, and it really makes Ying Ke judge right and wrong, and Ying Ke doesn't know. But he knew in his heart that if he had the chance to do it again, he would do the same......
"Where are Yue'er and Shengjie now?"
This is the first time that Ying Ke has called the two of them like this, but from his mouth, it always feels extra tongue-twisting and unfamiliar.
But when Xu Xian heard Ying Ke say this, he was slightly happy in his heart. He knew that his plan was nearing completion, and even went beyond it!
