The remaining days.

In addition to wandering around Shangjing, Emperor Han and his party spent the rest of their time in the Flower of Hell.

This appearance made the hidden dragon a little confused.

He didn't expect Emperor Han to be so leisurely, as if he hadn't prepared anything, and stayed in Shangjing empty-handed.

It stands to reason that Emperor Han is not a stupid person, and he should understand that this celebration banquet is not a simple celebration banquet, and smart people should make some preparations in advance.

But Emperor Han was under the watchful eye of the hidden dragon and had no intention of doing anything.

Through the past few days, Emperor Han also discovered the abnormality.

From the moment he stepped out of Shangjing, the first group of spies followed him twenty-four hours a day.

As time went by, there were more and more spies following him, which showed that there were many forces who were extremely interested in him.

Since this is the case, then Emperor Han simply took measures of inaction.

Respond to change with the same.

He believed in his subordinates and in the loyalty of the imperial army!

The moment the Tiger Talisman was taken out, all the imperial troops returned!

......

Shangjing Ten Thousand Battles Celebration Banquet, the night before.

The whole Shangjing is lit up, and the whole process is red, and flaming red lanterns are hung everywhere.

Everyone's faces were beaming with joy.

The New Year is coming soon.

This celebration banquet of ten thousand battles also carries a beautiful meaning, indicating that the soldiers in the coming year will also win all battles, fight bravely and well, and defend their families and the country!

The streets are full of festive smells.

Emperor Han and Zhan walked on the streets of Shangjing, looking at the happy smiles on the faces of the men and women around them, the old people and children were holding hands and walking, and there was a peaceful scene everywhere.

Zhan looked at this scene and opened his mouth slightly.

"Emperor, is it really a wise move to choose to start tomorrow at the Ten Thousand Battles Celebration Banquet? How many people will be caught in the whirlpool of this war? ”

This peaceful scene made Zhan's heart shake slightly.

"The movement is to move, but the movement should be as small as possible so as not to affect these people."

"Yes."

......

Qianlong Mansion.

Outside the mansion, according to Qianlong's order, a flaming red lantern was hung for the first time, and a couplet was pasted on the outside, which was written by Qianlong himself on a whim.

The subordinates in the mansion all showed surprised expressions, not believing that the Hidden Dragon Mansion, which had always been cold and secluded, would have such a festive scene one day.

They could feel that their master, the Hidden Dragon, seemed to be in a good mood, which was in stark contrast to the Hidden Dragons on weekdays.

It's as if something good is about to happen.

Qianlong stood at the highest point in the palace, from which he could see most of the scenery of Shangjing.

In his eyes, when night falls in Shangjing, the lights are bright and thousands of homes are prosperous.

"What a beautiful scene!"

"Emperor of the North, can you bear to let it fall into the flames of war because of you?"

Qianlong sneered, his tone full of sarcasm.

"Tomorrow, let you, the beloved emperor of the north, try for yourself a scene that is spurned by all the people!"

......

Island in the East China Sea.

Ice-free port.

"Lord Ye Tongyu, do you really want to choose to go to sea at such a time? The ocean is stormy at night, and the line of sight is unclear, and it is easy to have an accident when sailing now, otherwise the ruler will go to sea again tomorrow morning. ”

Ye Shangxuan's henchmen dissuaded him beside him.

But Ye Shangxuan's mind had been decided, and he thought about it for a long time during this time, and finally he decided to choose to take this step.

If it was a bad decision, then he would be equally saddled with infamy.

If this decision is correct, then he will be glorious for half of his life and famous all over the world.

"Don't be dissuaded, I've made up my mind, pass my order, go to sea immediately!"

"The soldiers of the East China Sea, 300,000 navies, all go to the bay outside Shangjing to lurk hundreds of miles away, no one is allowed to get close to half a step without my order!"

The henchman gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Yes! Domination! The subordinates are going to dispatch troops! ”

......

Somewhere in the north.

The lights stayed awake all night, and there was an old but still handsome old man pacing inside.

In front of him was a long table with a sand table of northern forces.

"Cheng Shuai, it's not early at night, let's rest first."

Qiong Lei always stayed by Cheng Daiyuan's side, and when he saw that this old man hadn't slept well for three days and three nights because of this matter, it made him feel a little unbearable.

So this is the first sentence in the past three days that Qionglei has spoken to dissuade Cheng Daiyuan.

However, Cheng Daiyuan shook his head and rejected Qionglei's kindness.

"No need, I know my body, and I can still carry it."

"What's more, there is only one day left, and I don't plan to continue in this position anyway if I can resist tomorrow."

When he said this, in order to make himself more sober, Cheng Daiyuan walked to the balcony and looked at a full moon hanging in the sky.

The cold wind of the night made his mind much clearer.

Qiong Lei opened his mouth and asked, "Cheng Shuai, why did you step down from this position?" Among the three armies, there is no one more suitable for this position except you! The people of the world must not lose Cheng Shuai! ”

Cheng Daiyuan listened to Qiong Lei's words, suddenly laughed, and then looked at Qiong Lei with this kind look.

"I didn't expect that one day you would say this kind of thing to me, but it surprised me, it seems that people will always grow, and you have grown a lot!"

Qiong Lei was silent and looked at Cheng Daiyuan without saying a word.

Cheng Daiyuan sighed slightly, and white gas came out of his mouth.

"Times are changing, the world will eventually be handed over from my hands to the next generation, and it is impossible for me to keep this bone in this position!"

"What's more, a new force is being formed, and there are many younger generations who are more courageous than me and know how to make decisions!"

"The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, it's time for me to step back from this position!"

"After the celebration banquet of the Ten Thousand Battles in Beijing, I will personally ask the court for my life and resign from my position, and then I will return to my hometown and be an old man leaning against the door!"

Dome took a deep breath.

He was a little reluctant in his heart, but he was very able to understand Cheng Daiyuan.

For so many years, Cheng Daiyuan is indeed too tired, and since he wants to rest, it is also the right decision to resign from his position at such a time.

What can be met is that there will be even greater storms in the future.

It is not the right decision to retreat bravely at such a critical juncture.

"Cheng Shuai, no matter what decision you make, Qionglei will support you without hesitation."

"Actually, I hope you don't be too loyal, it's not fair to you. If one day you make you pay with your life because of your loyalty, that is something I don't want to see! ”

"The world is inherently complex, there is no absolute justice, and there is no constant evil. The so-called good and evil are opposites, and they will be transformed into each other at a certain critical point. ”

Cheng Daiyuan came to think about something, and wanted to talk to Qiong Lei.

"Qiong Lei, let me ask you, is this hidden dragon a bad person?"

"Yes!"

"Then why do you say he's a bad guy?"

"He manipulated the court, filled his own pockets, appropriated the money in the treasury for himself, and played with women, and brutally killed those women afterwards, not only that, but many people in Qianlong Mansion were brutally murdered by him, as long as someone disobeyed his wishes, he would take the most vicious means."

Qiong Lei said angrily, and when he opened it, he was already dissatisfied with the hidden dragon.

So when he knew that the Emperor of the Northern Realm was going to make a move on the Hidden Dragon, his heart was surging, and at the same time, his worship of the Emperor of the Northern Realm reached the extreme.

"Yes, he's a wicked villain in this regard!"

"But do you know what he did?"

Firmament shook his head.

"Once, he guarded the eastern seas and defeated the 300,000 troops from the Sakura Country, and then he traveled thousands of miles to the southern war domain, joined forces with the lord of the south at that time, fought a bloody battle on the frontier, prevented the joint attack of the five countries along the border, and kept the peace of the Dahua Kingdom for five years. Later, he adopted excellent economic policies, so that the economy of the whole country took off rapidly, and the people's lives entered a state of abundance, and then the treasury was sufficient, and with foresight, he began to build the four major theaters, formulated six levels of military ranks, clearly divided rewards and punishments, and implemented the method of grade cultivation, so that all soldiers who served in the army could practice this. ”

"Speaking of which, you may not believe it, but this person is indeed a former hidden dragon."

"In terms of qualifications, there are few people in the entire court who are comparable to him. In terms of political achievements, he is also a unique hero in the court. ”

"Throw away all prejudices, do you think such a person is a hero?"

Hearing this, Qionglei fell into a long silence.

Obviously, Cheng Daiyuan's words really shook his concept.

In his mind, the hidden dragon is a hypocritical villain.

Cheng Daiyuan looked at Qiong Lei's appearance, and he knew the discomfort and struggle in Qiong Lei's heart.

"So, there are no absolute good or bad people in this world."

"Qiong Lei, after tomorrow, the rest of your life can only be walked by yourself."

"I'll give you a message for this last night."

"In the future, you have to think more. Put aside preconceptions and think from a different standpoint. The human heart is always complex, and the human face is always changeable. People who think they can see through everything often fall into the trap of self-trapping. ”
