Emperor Duanhua's family is not very small, how to repair the concubines and concubines, including the two princesses who rarely appear in front of people, can not hinder Emperor Sutai in the horizontal and vertical, showing the tolerance and generosity of the new monarch, it is okay.

But Empress Wei and the crown prince Lu Chengxuan - these two, the former has a deep city, and it is difficult to say whether there will be endless troubles if they stay, and they masterminded the murder of Princess Changxing; The latter is not only the only living biological flesh and blood of Empress Dowager Su who killed her female enemy, but also the eldest son of Emperor Duanhua!

Even if Lu Chenghuang was assassinated by He Lou Duhan instigated by the Su family, and is lying on the sickbed until now, as long as he lives, the threat to Emperor Sutai will not disappear!

After all, the world is changing, when Emperor Xianjia insisted on supporting his eldest son to ascend the throne and succeed his son-in-law, who would have thought that in just two years, Lu Chengxuan would return to the imperial capital and stand on the throne?

Whether it is out of personal grudges or to maintain his throne, Empress Wei's mother and son are impossible to stay.

Even Wei Xi has not said a word for the mother and son so far - it's not that he doesn't feel sorry for his daughter and grandson, but he knows that it's useless to say it!

Now that Emperor Sutai said that he would let go of Duanhua's wife and child, it was obvious that even these two were among the pardons, Jian Xubai was naturally surprised: Princess Changxing was the only sister of Emperor Sutai!

The relationship between their sister and brother has always been very good, not to mention, even if Emperor Sutai has the courage to forgive the enemy who killed his sister for the great cause, what about the Empress Dowager Su?

"I haven't had time to discuss it with the Queen Mother yet, but since I have made this promise, I will naturally fulfill it." Emperor Sutai said calmly, "I don't know what Yanhou thinks?" ”

Jian Xubai groaned: Emperor Sutai expressed his willingness to pardon Empress Wei's mother and son, this matter seems to have nothing to do with Jian Xubai and others, but in fact, it is a euphemism to express the meaning of not investigating the past.

Emperor Huizong's Shentu Guifei and Zhenyuan's Lady; the dispute between the princes of the Xianjia dynasty; The King of Qing, King Liang, and even the Su family seized the palace and the emperor of the Duanhua Dynasty were besieged......

All the tragedies of the royal family in the past few decades have the shadow of the family gatekeeper.

Therefore, there is no way for the family gate valve to trust Emperor Sutai, because not only the ancestors of Emperor Sutai have used their trust to the point of credit, but the family gate valve has fought back over the years, and it is not polite at all.

Emperor Sutai is a person who understands, and he will not be unaware of what they have done.

"Although Da Rui Dingding is less than a hundred years old, due to various reasons, the monarch and the minister, it seems to be harmonious, but it has long been estranged."

Seeing that Jian Xubai did not answer, Emperor Sutai paused for a short time and then continued slowly, "Now that the monarchs and ministers have the heart to break this barrier, why can't I take this step first?" ”

"Your Majesty is well aware of the righteousness, and the ministers admire it very much!" Jian Xubai looked at him thoughtfully and said, "It's just...... Changxing is His Majesty's only sister in the end, and the ministers are really worried that His Majesty will regret it one day! ”

And Empress Wei's mother and son, even if they are pardoned, they can spare their lives, but one day, Emperor Sutai repents and wants to kill them, isn't it a matter of a word, a gesture, and a look?

In the same way, no matter how tolerant and benevolent and generous Emperor Sutai is now, who can guarantee that he will not turn his face in the future, and the intrigue with the family for decades will be clearly understood? !

"I am the Son of Heaven, so it is reasonable that Yan Hou can't believe my promise." Emperor Sutai was not angry because of Jian Xubai's rhetorical question, but nodded and said calmly, "However, I am absolutely unwilling to be the king of the fallen country, nor do I want Da Rui to change from prosperity to decline in my hands, I don't know if Yan Hou agrees with this?" ”

Jian Xubai nodded briskly: "Your Majesty has great ambitions, and now that he is in the world, it is time to make great achievements!" ”

Except for a very small number of "a hundred years of life, I have worked hard to be over, put. The vast majority of emperors, no matter how they ascended to the throne of God, whether they have the ability to govern the world or not, after all, they hope to be a wise and capable emperor who can be praised by future generations.

A concubine of the middle palace like Emperor Sutai, born rich and noble, grew up under the teachings of the Su family, and from the governor, his goal was to become a generation of Ming monarchs who would be famous for a hundred generations - the ambition in his heart would only be stronger than that of other emperors.

In fact, this is also the reason why Jian Xubai is willing to come over and talk to him at this moment: Emperor Sutai has the desire to be a Ming Jun. hope, as well as qualifications.

So he both knows what he has to do and is willing to do it.

"I have seen the records of the fall of the previous dynasty, Dahe, Dawei, Dayong......" Emperor Sutai stroked the window lattice in his hand, "The previous owners of this palace city, the beginning of each dynasty, as this dynasty is now, the power of the four seas, the eight directions to the dynasty." ”

"But prosperity will always pass."

"At the beginning of the dynasty, when the alien races prostrate in front of the steps showed their minions, the once invincible army, the once politically peaceful and prosperous dynasty, but in a happy life, it fell to the point of vulnerability!"

"After that, internal and external troubles erupted, and it was a matter of course."

The emperor said lightly, "Da Rui is now on the edge of such a cliff - Yan Hou has already seen it, right?" Otherwise, why did you choose me to ascend the throne? ”

His eyes, which were originally as bright as stars, became brighter and brighter, and he looked at Jian Xubai without blinking, and said softly, "Everyone in the world says that His Majesty Emperor Taizu has made great achievements in battle, and Da Rui's iron hooves are invincible!" But they all forgot that it has been forty years since the death of His Majesty Emperor Taizu, and three full generations have passed in the world. ”

"Four years ago, the army returned triumphantly from Wuhuan, and everyone from top to bottom thought that this war, if it weren't for the capture of Yanhou and several others, and all kinds of internal information, they would never have fought for so long, so Darui is still invincible, and there is no need to worry about the safety of the four realms!"

"But in reality......"

Emperor Sutai sneered, and his tone became sharper, "In the early years of Da Rui, when His Majesty Emperor Taizu was still there, or take a step back, when His Majesty Emperor Huizong was on the throne and the veterans of the founding of the country, he dared to be disrespectful to my Da Rui by borrowing Wu Huan's ten dares?!" ”

"If it is not my race, its heart will be different - these barbarian Hu Di, who did not kneel in front of the horse's hooves of Emperor Taizu back then, prostrate and beg, and call himself a slave in order to save his life! After more than 30 years of rest, I am restless! ”

"Because of the destruction of Wuhuan, they should be in peace for a while."

"But if we continue to intrigue and fight for power, it's hard to say whether they will continue to settle down!"

When the young emperor said this, he subconsciously glanced at the direction of the Jihou Mansion outside the palace, and a touch of sadness passed between his eyebrows, "Especially, my maternal grandfather, Ji Guogong's 'death', the veteran of the founding of the country, those generals who once killed Siyi and fled far away, are still alive, but Lai Guogong is alone!" ”

The generals at the time of the founding of the country, of course, could not all be short-lived, so that only Ji Guogong and Lai Guogong lived to recent years.

If you want to talk about the withering of these people, you still have to mention the killing in the early years of Xianjia - Emperor Huizong has too many children, more than 40 princes and princesses, and they are all high-ranking families, and the high-ranking doors at the beginning of the founding of the country, except for a meritorious hero, who else is it?

So when Emperor Xianjia raised the butcher's knife towards his half-brothers and sisters, these families all suffered!

Among them, there are many "generals who once killed four people and fled far away".

At that time, Emperor Xianjia deliberately left Ji Guogong and Lai Guogong, because he was able to ascend the throne, relying on the help of the old Ji Guogong, and Lai Guogong, who was lucky not to marry the royal family, was not involved in this turmoil; Second, he was left by Emperor Xianjia to govern the Duke of Ji, in case there was no veteran in the country who could suppress the four realms except for the Su family.

"However, Lai Guogong has been out of the world for a long time - even if he is willing to go out of the mountain again, with his age, how many years can he support?"

"And after these two elders go, I, Darui, have any outstanding generals in recent years?!"

"If you compare the two of Ji Guogong and Lai Guogong, naturally there is none." Jian Xubai's expression was dull, and he said lightly, "After all, since His Majesty Emperor Huizong, the only battle of Da Rui is to crusade against Wuhuan - the light of a famous general and a good handsome is not on the battlefield, how can it bloom?!" ”

Emperor Sutai said: "I know what you mean, there may not be no generals in the country, but because Da Rui has been peaceful for a long time, there is no place for it. But those aliens may not see this. ”

So, as long as they feel that Darui is not terrible, they will still pounce fiercely!

"There is a way, one will succeed, and ten thousand bones will wither!" Emperor Sutai said slowly, "Even if we win in the end, the people who died, the cities that were destroyed, and the financial and material resources that were spent...... But he can't come back. After all, it is us who loses! ”

Middle-earth has always been rich, and the land where the aliens are located is very barren in comparison, and it can even be said that it is shabby.

When they enter the Central Plains, they can plunder on a large scale, but the dynasties of Middle-earth have nothing to take advantage of when they kill their territory.

At most, get some livestock, or war horses.

Most of the time, the benefits obtained are not enough for the grain and grass consumed on a single expedition.

Therefore, for the most part, the wars between Middle-earth and these alien races are at a loss.

Emperor Sutai was raised by the Su family, and the reason why the Su family was in charge of the army from generation to generation was the fight with the foreign races in southern Xinjiang, and on this issue, it was natural to see it clearly.

In fact, the ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang faced by the Su family are already quite good - the southern climate is hot, the vegetation is abundant, the products are rich, and there are many special products, which are not available in Middle Earth, whether it is war or trade, the profits are very considerable.

But even so, the cost of a real large-scale battle, such as a fight against a foreign country such as Siam, is still very distressing.

Like the northern alien races faced by the Shen family and the Liu family, there is really no oil and water - if they are not poor, they will not try their best to target Middle-earth, after all, if they can live well, who will not spare their lives?

"At the beginning, Yanhou chose me to inherit the throne, and many people thought that Yanhou was because the queen had a good relationship with Grandma Song, and wanted to get the moon first near the water; Some people also believe that Yanhou wants to pick the peaches of the Su family; There are also people who think that Yan Hou did not take me seriously, and think that even if he supported me, an emperor who is considered to have good qualifications, to ascend to the throne, he can still make me a qualified puppet......"

When Emperor Sutai said this, he smiled sarcastically, "I'm afraid that even Cousin Shaoge didn't expect that Yan Hou actually took pity on the people in this world, so he chose me to ascend the throne, right?" ”

"Because Yanhou is the same as me, he is too young, and the reliable elders above, such as the old lady Duanmu and the Jian Shilang in Ding Wei, are inconvenient to come forward and shout for Yanhou at this moment!"

"So even if Yan Hou tries his best to control the situation and wants to suppress this court for a long time, you alone will not be able to do it - Wei Xi and the others are certainly talented, but what they value most in their hearts is always their own family, including Gu Shao, and it is impossible not to think about the Hongzhou Gu family behind him!"

"Those few have too deep grievances in recent years, if they are allowed to gain power, they will inevitably be intrigued, and it is impossible to stop without fighting to the death!"

"If Shen Liu has been dormant for a long time, once he gains power, he must only care about his own revitalization lintel!"

"The history books record that Emperor Wei Ai is mediocre, because at that time, the alien race had already Chen Bing on the frontier, but he was still wantonly collecting beauty pageants and building palaces!"

"But in fact, how noble were the scholars at that time than Emperor Wei Ai?"

They abandoned the exhausted Wei room and looked intensively at the next target that could be supported. Or they are ready to compete in the world by themselves - as for what to do with Li Shu, they don't care about it, just like Emperor Wei Ai! ”

"In my opinion, the current family gate valve is no different from the previous family gate valve - the world is not necessary for them, as long as they can let their family develop, they don't mind the troubled times at all! is even willing to take the initiative to contribute to the troubles, so that the world will enter the troubled times from the prosperous times! ”

"So Yan Hou, you can't trust them, you have to ensure that you can continue to control the situation, so that this court, this country, can develop in the direction you want - you hope that this prosperous peace can continue!"

"You hope that there will be no major turmoil in Darui, and the world can continue to live and work in peace and contentment;"

"I hope that this grievance, which has been planted since before the founding of the country, will come to an abrupt end, and there will be no more turmoil!"

"But you can't do it alone—you need me, or rather, you need to join forces with the person who sits in my seat!"

"But apart from me, all the imperial heirs you can choose from at the moment are not suitable."

"They don't have enough eyes to see how dangerous the situation Darui is facing right now!"

"Even if Yan Hou told them bitterly, they are willing to believe that they don't have the courage and ability to join forces with you!"

A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Emperor Sutai's mouth, and he looked up at the exquisite carvings and ornaments on the top of the palace, and his tone was cold, "The prince has good qualifications, but he is seriously injured, and he is too late to recuperate!" And although her mother Wei is quite a city government, she is too selfish, and she is a good hand at intrigue, and she may not be able to have such a mind as Yan Hou when it comes to the relationship between the world and the society! ”

"King Liang has a dark heart, a strong desire for power, is mean and unkind, and is not a master!"

"King Xiang has an introverted temperament and is not enterprising enough, which can be seen from the fact that he was easily controlled by Aunt Daiguo! Such a candidate naturally can't get into the eyes of Yan Hou! ”

"Shu Wang ......" mentioned this young brother he once loved and cared for, and the young emperor sighed, "He is too naïve, maybe a good puppet, but definitely not a good monarch." ”

After a pause, "And you, Yanhou, are looking forward to a qualified monarch, a monarch who can join forces with you and get along with you, not a marionette!" ”

"That's why you chose me."

"Actually, it's because you can only choose me!"

Emperor Sutai turned his head and suddenly bowed deeply towards Jian Xubai, "Among the most unworthy people in the Darui Imperial Family, there must be you." And you are still willing to choose me, I ...... This gift is performed on behalf of the world! ”

As the emperor, he doesn't need to call anyone "you" except for the elders of the clan, he shouted like this at the moment, and saluted in person, but he only accepted it indifferently, and after a while, he sighed with a complicated expression: "Su Zhiyong really underestimated Your Majesty!" The world also underestimated Your Majesty! ”

"Cousin and the world, why didn't you underestimate Yanhou?" Emperor Sutai raised his eyebrows and asked, "So, can Yanhou tell me now that I am qualified to join forces with you?" ”
