Chapter 772: Double-edged sword
"I was scared, scared, and did something wrong. But who is not a saint or a sage, right? Can you forgive me this time? ”
Ji Yu looked at Dabao with a sincere face, and wanted to shed a few tears to set off the atmosphere, but unfortunately she couldn't squeeze it down.
Dabao was silent.
It took a while to raise his head again.
"One last time, not again."
The tone is a bit pretended to be old-fashioned, and it is really a person who has become an emperor.
Ji Yu nodded desperately, and under repeated assurances, Dabao was finally not so tense, and the sister and brother could finally have a long talk.
Dabao ascended the throne in a hurry, and Ji Yu regretted that she couldn't watch the ceremony, but she was more worried about whether Dabao was suitable for the palace.
Dabao naturally didn't like that place, but he had already learned from Teng Xiu and ...... The man who robbed him of his sister learned about the necessity and importance of him living in the imperial city.
As long as he sat on the throne, the events of that night would not happen again.
No one dared to hunt him and Sister A anymore, and no one dared to disadvantage him and Sister A. No one, not anyone in the world.
And this seems to be the only way he can protect his sister at the moment.
"Sister." Dabao bypassed this question and didn't answer, only looked at her with a blank eye, "Let's live together, I asked Teng Xiu to leave you the largest courtyard." ”
Ji Yu used crying and laughing to cover up the sourness in her heart.
"Dabao." Ji Yu touched his head, "The harem is for your future daughter-in-law to live in, if I live in, tomorrow, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will have to sue me." ”
Dabao twisted his eyebrows: "Whoever dares to sue Sister A's state, I will kill him!" ”
These words made Ji Yu's heart sink.
She asked Dabao what he did every day except for the days of the previous dynasty.
Dabao said that he had to listen to lectures for most of the day, and the people who taught were still from Zhan Shifu, and now there were more Zhang Xiang, but he only taught the emperor.
Ji Yu asked some details again.
After confirming that Zhang Xiang was really teaching Dabao according to the standard of cultivating an emperor, he put a little bit of heart.
"Besides listening to lectures?"
"I also have to listen to Teng Xiu's excerpts."
Ji Yu knew that those excerpts had been approved by the cabinet, and Dabao only needed to listen and watch, and did not need to take any ideas.
In other words, all the decrees at this stage are from the cabinet, and Dabao, the emperor, is still in the "internship period".
However, he understood the beauty of power early on, and blurted out the word killing casually......
When a person sits in the position of emperor, there is almost nothing in the world that can restrain him, and then the most primitive evil in human nature is fully revealed. Lust and murder, poverty and luxury...... History has amply proven that no one can escape this law.
Unless you wear a shackle spell.
"Dabao, let me ask you, do you like the feeling of killing people if you want to?"
Dabao didn't care if he liked it or not, but he could see from Ji Yu's expression that Ji Yu didn't like it.
"If Sister doesn't like it, I don't like it."
Ji Yu didn't want this.
"Let me ask you again, do you like the people who are chasing us?"
Dabao's face furrowed and shook his head.
Ji Yu asked again: "When they held the knife in their hands, we were not strong enough, and we only had to be killed." When we are strong and take a knife and kill others at will, doesn't it become as annoying as those people? ”
Dabao's eyes showed a little doubt: "Sister means you can't kill people?" ”
"There are killables and there are not."
"What to kill? What not to kill? ”
Ji Yu gave him some easy-to-understand examples.
"Someone wants to kill you indiscriminately, but you can kill you; Anyone who has done something that hurts heaven and reason and seriously violates the law is punishable...... If someone unintentionally says something you don't like to hear, you can't kill it; Someone deliberately stopped you from doing something you shouldn't do, you can't kill ......"
Seeing that the doubts in Dabao's eyes were deeper, Ji Yu pinched his face.
"Don't worry, the standards of these two need to be learned and understood slowly. Those bachelors in the palace will teach you, and Zhang Xiang will also teach you, the key is still in yourself. You need to know that when you have a butcher's knife in your hand, don't talk about death at every turn, but take people's lives seriously. ”
Dabao thought for a moment and asked, "What if I don't take a knife?" ”
"If you say a word, someone will take it for you; Whatever you want, someone will do it for you. In the past two months, you should have fully grasped this, haven't you? ”
Dabao hesitated, because it was.
"He who kills with a knife is cautious, and he who kills with his words is cautious of his words, and he must be even more cautious in his actions. Do you understand? ”
Dabao blinked: "I know, Sister is talking about power." ”
After living in King Min's mansion, this word often appeared in some of the stories that Sister told him.
"Power is a double-edged sword, and when used properly, it can benefit all people, otherwise it will lose its original heart and be devoured by selfish desires."
Listening to him repeat the words he had heard word for word, Ji Yu was very pleased.
"So you have to remember, remember. Power can give you a lot, but it can also make you lose more. ”
"Including you, sister?"
Dabao's little face suddenly became solemn.
"Yes, including me."
Ji Yu looked at him very seriously.
"The lust for power will make people full of poisonous thorns, and Sister can't hug you, so she can only leave you."
Dabao panicked and grabbed Ji Yu's hand tightly.
"Then I don't want power, I want a sister."
In the end, you still can't get rid of your childishness, and the throne is said to be unwanted.
"Have you forgotten that power is a double-edged sword? You have stood in the highest position in the entire Great Zhou, and when you grow into a true emperor, you can not only protect yourself, protect the people you want to protect, but also protect more people. You can also change injustice, change rules, and even change the way of the world...... Look, there's many, many things you can do. ”
The standard of killability and non-killing, the double edge of power, these all need time to digest.
Dabao lowered his eyelashes, raised them after a while, and solemnly promised Ji Yu.
"I will be the true emperor."
Ji Yu stretched out her little finger and pulled the hook with him: "I'm waiting for that day." ”
The door was pushed open, and Guan Shan and Teng Xiu walked in.
Dabao and Guan Shan are still the same, when they see each other, let alone smiling faces, their expressions are inadequate.
However, Ji Yu had already made sure that Dabao still remembered the words he had "threatened" him before, and he didn't bother to care about the rest.
It's not early, the palace gate wants to give the key, even if it's reluctant, it's time for Dabao to leave.
Ji Yu talked to Teng Xiu alone for a while.
Of course, she and Teng Xiu have nothing to say, and the topic still revolves around Dabao.
"I have only been with him for a few years, his life is still very long, and the most with him for the rest of his life is not me, or even his future concubine, but you, so I want to ask you to ......"
"Miss Ji tortures the minions." Teng Xiu bowed and said, "I don't want Miss Ji to ask for this word, this is a matter within the minions, Miss Ji can rest assured, the minions will serve the emperor with all their hearts." ”
Ji Yu smiled: "Teng's palm print, I am relieved." ”
After Feng En lost power, he fell into the hands of Fan Xian, what good could he do if he fell into the hands of his rival? A few days after Fan Xian's death, Feng En, who had been tortured, also swallowed his breath. Today's celebrant is headed by Teng Xiu.
Teng Xiu is a person who is sleek and behaves in a good manner. This is like Vonne, and better than Vonn.
So there is no need to export some reminders, Ji Yu believes that Teng Xiu will carry it herself.
Of course, she is not blindly believing, there is a premise for this belief - Admiral Feng En's Xuan Wuwei was dismissed by Fan Xian as early as last year, and after Fan Xian's death, the secret pavilion no longer exists, and the power of the celebrant is gone, and it is no longer what it used to be.
As for the celebrant himself, it is still necessary for his existence, so he should not be discarded by choking.
There's still a long way to go, so let's go and see.
"Miss Ji."
Teng Xiu suddenly called Ji Yu, but stopped talking when Ji Yu looked at her.
"Teng Zhangyin has something to say, you might as well say it directly."
Teng Xiu seemed to have a full stomach, and finally turned into a slightly complicated but calm smile.
"This girl can't scream when she touches it in the future...... The minion wishes you and General Kou a long old age. ”
Ji Yu didn't expect him to say this, but he was still very happy to be blessed.
"I promise you."
After the conversation, Ji Yu personally sent Dabao out of the house, and promised to enter the palace to see him after recovering from his injuries.
Watching Dabao get into the carriage step by step, Ji Yu's heart was tightly clenched, but she still had to force a smile.
The carriage walked far away, and Dabao's head poked out of the window to look back.
Until the sound of ruts disappeared completely, Ji Yu, who was red from the corners of her eyes, turned around and hugged Guan Shan tightly.
Guan Shan took her shoulders and stood with her for a long time in the dark night.
