"Brother Huang, have you forgotten? I can protect myself now. Vicky interrupted him unceremoniously.

The emperor stared at the girl he had seen since he was a child, feeling that she was getting stranger and farther away from him, but he still had to try to pull her back to himself.

He couldn't live without her.

He can't stand her and others, you and me, and love each other.

"I know, the last time I was in the palace, I drank too much, even if it was true, you wouldn't believe it. But I am now completely conscious, and I want to tell you that if you insist on me giving up the low-hanging fruit, I can do it for you. It's just that before I give up, I want you to give me a little more time...... I have received a message from the Xizuo lurking in the Great Liao, that great changes will soon occur in the Great Liao Imperial Court, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to regain the lost territory. When I have finished this, I will go into seclusion with you and be with you until I grow old. ”

The emperor said it sincerely.

He is not attached to the throne, nor is it high power.

He doesn't love money, and he doesn't love beauty.

He wanted to fulfill his ambitions.

What he cherishes is the opportunity to end this troubled era and leave a name in history.

He has already captured more than a dozen prefectures and counties such as Kuizhou in one fell swoop, and conquered Shu.

Other small neighboring nations also submitted to the tribute.

Only the Khitans, who occupy the sixteen states of Youyun in the north, are still in trouble.

If you can take advantage of the fact that Daliao is busy with infighting and regain the lost territory in one fell swoop, you can unify the Central Plains from now on and live for generations.

Although he was high above at this time, and everyone praised him for his wisdom and martial arts, his inferiority complex and cowardice were deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

He couldn't forget those humble years that seemed to be gone.

He has been under the fence since he was a child, and changed his original surname, just in exchange for a good future.

Even if he fell in love with Yong'an, he hid it in his heart and didn't dare to show it in front of the Guo family.

He was afraid of their sneering and contemptuous glances.

In their hearts, he is the toad who just wants to eat swan meat.

Yong'an, who has been smart and loved by everyone since he was a child, although he watched him grow up, it is so unattainable.

Until the heirs of the Guo family were almost slaughtered by Emperor Yin of the Han Dynasty, Guo Wei cut off other hopes, cultivated him wholeheartedly, and later even made him the crown prince and helped him to the top of ten thousand people, and the kind of cowardice hidden in the blood and bones was not completely erased.

He stubbornly wants to prove his worth again and again.

It proves that everything he has now is because he is capable and talented, not just because of good fate.

So he wants to dominate the Central Plains and win the world.

Han Daorong's paintings are no longer enough.

Only such a dowry can be worthy of Yong'an.

Only such a self can be worthy of the girl he has been thinking about for many years.

Although perhaps in eternal peace, perhaps these two paintings are sufficient.

If he had overcome his cowardice earlier, he and Yong'an would have been a different scene now.

The emperor looked at Youwei intently, looking for the answer from her eyes.

Youwei's expression was cold, and she didn't have the slightest emotion: "Then who will entrust the imperial brother with all his hard work to build the country?" If it is someone else, how can you rest assured? ”

The emperor vaguely heard a glimmer of hope from her words.

A smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said, "I can follow Yao Shun's example and give up the throne to talented and virtuous people." And I retreated, sat with you and watched the prosperity of the world, happy to be at ease. As for who exactly will be ceded by Zen at that time, you can decide for me. ”

"Me?" Youwei really couldn't bear his deep and inexplicable misplaced love, so she could only say: "This is the world of the imperial brother, and I have no intention of putting my beak." ”

The emperor's eyelashes suddenly flickered, and he said, "Originally, Yu Yao was a very good candidate. But he is not close to women, and I am afraid that he will not have children to inherit the throne in the future. I see that the Wen Cang you brought back from Dahan has good character and martial arts, and his bearing is also extraordinary. If you agree, I can give him the throne and he will rule the world in my place. And I, as long as I have you, it's enough. ”

The emperor said that he was emotional and wanted to hold her in his arms.

And Youwei was stunned by what he said, and she couldn't dodge it.

But soon she came to her senses.

No, that's not right!

Didn't Wen Cang already leave Yuezhou?

I don't know where I'm going now.

Why did the emperor still say conclusively that he would give him the throne?

Youwei's heart was surging for a while, she broke free from the emperor's side, looked at his eyes coldly, and asked, "Brother Huang, has Gongzi Wen fallen into your hands?" ”

The emperor didn't expect her to see the clue so quickly, but he was still calm and calm on the surface.

He turned and walked over to the stone table, sat down on a stone bench, and rested his right elbow lightly on the stone table.

"Yong'an, you shouldn't be too concerned about such a person of unknown origin."

The emperor knew that it was time for the confession that had just been dissected.

To treat Yong'an, who is stubborn by nature, it is not enough to just be soft, and it is necessary to apply both soft and hard to have a glimmer of life.

"He is not a person of unknown origin, he is the lord of Linglong Villa, and he is also my friend who shares adversity and suffering." Youwei argued forcefully.

"Linglong Villa?" The emperor couldn't help but sneer and said, "Linglong Villa has long ceased to exist, so there is no such thing as the lord of Linglong Villa. He was born in Dahan and grew up in Dahan. And Dahan has a feud with my Da Zhou, and for you, he is a person of unknown origin. ”

Not to be outdone, Youwei said: "But the imperial brother just said that he would give up the throne to this person of unknown origin. ”

The emperor said: "Yes, I did just say it. Regardless of whether a person's origin is unknown or not, as long as he has real talent and learning, has a benevolent heart, and can take care of the country and society for me, I will consider it. But you're different, Yong'an. You are a girl's family, you must understand that this kind of person is not worthy of trust. ”

"Brother Huang, you haven't answered me yet, has Gongzi Wen also fallen into your hands?"

Vicky is like a hedgehog, she has erected all her thorns and is on guard with all her heart.

"It's not that I deliberately went to embarrass him, but he came to Lu's house by himself last night and kept saying that he wanted to see me."

What the emperor said was true, but Youwei didn't believe it.

"Impossible, he can fly to the sky and escape from the world, so why should he throw himself into the net?"

The corners of the emperor's mouth twitched slightly, and he said, "He came to make a deal with me." I agreed. ”

This sentence is also true.

Youwei was uneasy in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "What deal?" ”

The emperor still said unhurriedly: "He said that you have long been deeply in love with him, but if I exchange the imperial power, he can give you to me." ”

This sentence is a real lie.

The emperor is scheming and naturally understands that if he can attract the other party's trust, he must mix the truth and falsehood, and it must be seven points true and three points false.

Youwei knew that the emperor was lying to her, and she wouldn't believe this kind of nonsense, but her heart still felt like she had been hit hard, and she felt a piercing pain.

"It's impossible. Brother Huang, I don't dare to commit the crime of defrauding the king, so everything I say is true. Please don't deceive me. Youwei pretended to be calm and tried not to let the emperor see the flaws.

"Hmph," the emperor snorted slightly and said, "Then why do you say so?" He is so strong in martial arts, not to mention that I only brought so many people, I am afraid that even if the entire Royal Forest Army makes a move, it will not hurt him in the slightest. If he is not willing, who has the ability to leave him behind? Besides, yesterday, he left you like that, don't you have any doubts at all? Yong'an, you weren't such a gullible person in the first place. You've lost your sense of proportion in this matter. ”

Youwei knew in her heart that things would never be what the emperor said.

But for a while, she couldn't think of any sufficient reason to refute.

As the saying goes, a woman who falls in love becomes stupid, and that's true!
