Chapter 342: Under the End of the Old Era
Yin Shi and Yu Miao glanced at each other, they wanted to object. But from the current situation, it seems that opposition will only provoke anger.
"We have no objection"
"Very good," Xue Ren nodded, "Then are you willing to swear allegiance?"
"What's the point of Your Majesty saying this, our two families have already sworn eternal allegiance to the royal Xue family. ”
"It's not to my Xue family, but to swear to me to the Yanyang Kingdom. After tonight, Xinghua will become a few handwriting in the history books, and there will only be one name of Yanyang on the earth in the future. ”
Yin Shi didn't rush to answer, "Your Majesty, as far as I know, there are hundreds of cities in Xinghua, that is, hundreds of family forces. Their combat power alone may not be enough to fear, but when the time comes, if they join forces......"
"If they want to unite, then I have to suppress it by brute force. Xue Ren's eyes were a little indifferent, "Without them, it would be much easier for me to implement the plan in the future." ”
"Boy, don't get complacent too soon. Xinghua has only been founded for more than 30 years, do you think no one has ever obtained the fire fruit before?"
"Of course, I know that there was a thousand-year-old country on this land long before Xinghua, Twilight. But I'm not the king of the end. His stupidity eventually led to the demise of the Twilight Kingdom, and I never thought of letting Yanyang live for a thousand years, not even a hundred years. My goal is not for a fool like you who sees only the throne in his eyes."
"I've had enough about you. Xue Ren waved his hand, "If you want to live, I can also let you go, your strength will still help me somewhat in my future plans." ”
"Ten breath time...... Decide. Xue Ren began to count down in place.
Nine......
Eight......
Everyone, except for the grandfather and grandson of the Zhao family, all began to flee in the direction of the outside of the city.
"Let's go," Master Yin said to the group of people behind him. He had to rush home as soon as possible to inform his father of the news.
Three...... Two...... One
By the time Xue Ren's countdown was completed, only a group of monsters and the Zhao family's grandfather and grandson were still standing there in the entire clearing.
"You didn't run away. ”
"Is there any escape? Is there any room for redemption for the crime of treason?"
"There is no room for recovery, but what you betrayed is Xinghua. And I'm the Lord of the Burning Sun Country."
Zhao Yin was slightly stunned, looked at Zhao Gu beside him, trembling and kneeling on the ground.
"Old Zhao, what do you mean by this? Are you just starting to think about asking for mercy now?"
"I'm not for myself, I'm for my grandson. In my opinion, although you want to depose the nobility, you are not going to kill all the nobles. Because you have ambitions, and your ambitions have to have their backing. ”
Xue Ren was just silent, because he had indeed guessed correctly.
"I don't know your purpose, but I can give you a suggestion, as a representative of the old times. ”
"Zhao Lao, please say"
"Never be too indulgent, too much freedom will only invite chaos. ”
"I will keep in mind Elder Zhao's words, but I will still give freedom to the people. The high walls that surround the capital may indeed be the best barrier against the wild beasts of the wilderness, but it is also a kind of restraint for us, like putting a shackle on a newborn baby, which may restrain his steps but cannot restrain his growth. ”
Xue Ren looked into the distance through the shattered walls, and behind the darkness were the walls that protected and bound the capital.
"And now that we're no longer babies, the shackles have only become a pain for us. ”
Zhao Yin smiled and shook his head, "It seems that I have no way to change you, I just hope that you will not end up in the same fate as the king of the end." ”
"I'm not him. Xue Ren smiled at Zhao Yin, "Because I have a heart." ”
"End it all, I'm a remnant of the old days. I'm tired of it all."
"It's the old that gives birth to the new, but if you want to survive, you have to keep moving forward. Drowning in the boat, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Xue Ren pulled out his royal sword
"Gu'er!" Zhao Yin grabbed Zhao Gu's shoulder, "Live, when you reach my age, when you come to see me, tell me where the new era has come." ”
"Grandpa......" Zhao Gu's emotions were a little complicated, he really wanted to die with his grandfather like this. But he also understands that such a death is meaningless
"Let me know if this time the new era will go further or fall into the vortex and make everything go back to square one"
"Old Zhao," Xue Ren raised his sword, "You have been in this huge cage for too long, and you don't know that last winter, the ice and snow have begun to melt, and the earth is no longer as cold as before. ”
Zhao Yin didn't answer anything, just closed his eyes.
"The dreams of the old days...... It's over. ”
Wang Jian fell, and Zhao Gu silently closed his eyes.
"Do you want to live or would you rather go with him?"
"I ...... I want to live. Zhao Gu's body began to tremble, "I want to witness the new era with my own eyes." ”
Xue Ren took back Wang Jian, "You go, go back to the Zhao family." Soon you will all receive a summons from the Burning Sun Nation."
Ah Fu drove the carriage to the gate of Cheng'an Mansion. Xiaolan and Sakura jumped out of the carriage and ran towards the Joan Mansion.
"Director Shao, where is Director Shao, I want to see him!" Xiao Lan shouted in the hall, contrary to her usual shyness.
"It's you. Shao Yongshuo heard the movement outside and walked out, "You guys are here to see the peony?"
"Sister Peony was assassinated, is it true or false!"
"The proprietress of Peony is indeed our momentary negligence......"
"A moment of negligence, do you know that it was because of your momentary negligence that an innocent good person was killed!"
Sakura was stunned by Ran's aggressive stance. For a while, she felt that this was not Xiaolan she knew
"Where is Sister Peony! I'm going to see him!"
"I'm afraid this can't be, after all, the peony is the key offender of our Cheng'an Mansion. Informing you is just a formality"
"Everyone is dead, and you still have to lock her up!"
"No one can go to see Peony unless ordered to do so by Lord Nara. ”
Xiaolan stared at Shao Yongshuo, "Okay, I'll go find Lord Nara!"
"Lord Nara has already returned to the Imperial City, so I'm afraid you won't see it tonight. Shao Yongshuo then thought again: "How did you get here?
"Director!" someone staggered in from outside, "It's a big deal! It's a big deal! It's not good! The three princes of the Zhao family have rebelled!"
"What!" Shao Yongshuo was shocked, "when did it happen!"
"As soon as I got the news, I rushed over without stopping. This will ...... I'm afraid they've already invaded the Imperial City!" read the latest chapter of "Looking for the Flower Spirit Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
