The sun is just right, the flowers are blooming, and the emperor has been hanging a gentle smile on his lips, shaking the fan in his hand.

"You should know it's impossible!"

The emperor's words were firm and decisive, and there was no room for negotiation.

King Chengping's face became more and more bitter, his lips seemed to have lost all moisture, and he said dryly: "I implore the emperor to think twice." ”

"If they win, will they spare me?"

"Ministers guarantee ......"

"It's a pity that I don't care about my life." The emperor said slowly: "Since I was born, I have had many bad luck, twists and turns, and I almost died several times, not to mention ...... My health is not good, and it took a lot of effort for the king of Chengping to keep me, but now I steal it every day, and I can't tell if I will die suddenly like the first emperor. ”

King Chengping's face was like a blank sheet of paper at this time, and he shook his head fiercely to deny the emperor's words.

"Uncle Xiao Huang thinks that I won't die suddenly? I can't even guarantee it, but I'm ...... The father and emperor should be good, and there will never be a situation full of doubts, even if the crown prince was the rightful heir of the empire at that time, but what did the clan and the noble courtiers say? ”

"Your Majesty."

King Chengping seems to have suffered more than the emperor, and his body is more healthy and upright than the emperor, as if he was being struck by a sharp blade, and the last painful painting says: "The imperial brother has not changed his mind, and he has never been." ”

"I have seen the edict, and I have personally asked the person who wrote the edict to the first emperor."

“……”

"I have always understood that in fact, I am the shield that the first emperor set up for King Wei, the first emperor is kind to the eldest princess, and that family affection will not extend to me, the queen mother Xu is his favorite among many women, but I am his best and easiest chess piece to abandon."

The emperor said slowly: "The first emperor died too suddenly, so he gave me a chance, but without the support of the king of Chengping, without the queen mother's compromise, by the way, I can sit on the throne, and I am grateful to the Tartar barbarians who buckle the border, and the king of Pingnan who guards in the southwest. ”

"The minister did not protect the emperor, and the minister deserved to die." King Chengping knelt down again.

"I have to admit that no one is better than you in that situation, and you will sacrifice hue for that." The emperor's original mocking words were reined in, "It was you who made me understand the importance of rights, and also made me understand how to protect the people I care about the most, if you make a mistake, I will not do it again." ”

"Therefore, I have learned from experience and lessons, in case I unfortunately die, I will not let San Lang and Mu Wu suffer what I suffered back then, not to mention that time and opportunity will not give the empire a buffer of ten years."

All the historical books and news released now are unified, and the emperor's succession to the throne is justified, but only the parties concerned know how anxious they were at that time, and how fierce the struggle between the parties was, almost ...... The empire was almost divided, and these compromises and deals hidden under the peace will never be known.

Even the most involved King Wei would not know that the person closest to the throne at that time was not the crown prince but him!

It wasn't that the king of Chengping County fully supported the crown prince, and the emperor was afraid that he would be locked up in the imperial village now, and he might have died under the poisonous wine and accidents at all, after all, the queen mother had already begun to waver at that time, and turned to support His Royal Highness the King of Wei, who had a testament.

Therefore, the emperor is still grateful to the king of Chengping County, "My promise to you has been used, don't expect me to show mercy to you in the future." ”

King Chengping smiled bitterly: "The ministers will always be loyal to the emperor, why don't you believe the ministers?" ”

The emperor sighed lightly, "I will only believe it after I have achieved my wish, I solemnly warn you again, you can be disloyal to me, but I will never allow you to destroy my plan, I fancy the empire, I fancy the people, for the sake of my plan, these are nothing." ”

"The Emperor's ......"

"I've said what I have to say, you go back and wait for my decree."

The emperor lowered his eyelids, stared at the little imperial uncle kneeling in front of him, and said in a soft voice: "If you refuse to obey my will, I will not be surprised, but I will not withdraw the holy will." ”

"Your will is the will of the minister, you don't need to doubt the minister's loyalty to you, the minister always thinks that the empire is the most suitable for you, as for the imperial brother...... The minister will ask the imperial brother for his guilt, and if the imperial brother sees you today, he will not leave that edict. ”

"I never expected to be approved by the first emperor, not before, and not in the future."

The emperor sat down again and said lightly: "You go." ”

After the king of Chengping County kowtowed, he withdrew from the pavilion, and when he was about to walk out of the imperial garden, he looked back, and the emperor was sitting alone in the pavilion, lonely and calm, only those stupid people felt that they still had an advantage, and the emperor ...... has matured and no longer needs his support and protection.

*****

Hou Mansion, Chen Shilang nodded and said: "Okay, according to what you say, the poor students will be handed over to me, but the emperor doesn't want the young students to get involved?" With the benevolence of the emperor, he did not want to destroy the talents that the empire had accumulated for ten years. ”

Liu Saburo said: "The emperor said that it is not easy for a cold family to support a scholar, but it is easy to destroy a group of scholars politically, and it may even be more widely implicated. In addition to making a fortune as an official, students should also remember the responsibilities they bear, not to make decisions for the people, not to eradicate the cancer of the empire, what else to be an official? What books to read?! ”

"The big waves wash the sand, go to the pseudo-gold, let them establish the correct concept as early as possible, take the lead in experiencing the cruelty of the imperial court, take advantage of their blood is not cold, and the innocence and purity of the scholars, they have never been insensitive to the sea of eunuchs, and do something that they will regret in the future, but there is no regret at this time."

"It is difficult to cultivate talented scholars, if these people are like the courtiers in the current officialdom in ten or twenty years, there are more of them and less of them, what difference will it make to the empire?"

"The emperor is benevolent and merciful, and it is not easy to be proud of the poor, but the emperor's tolerance and kindness should never fall on a group of people who study just to get rich!"

Chen Shilang arched his hand, a flash of admiration flashed on his face, he thought that he was not weak Liu Saburo in knowledge and strategy, but he was not as good as Liu Saburo in terms of vision and heart, after all, the emperor was Liu Saburo's teacher, and all his teachers added up did not have the emperor to stand tall and see far.

He learned the golden mean for his ministers, and Liu Saburo ...... pretending to be an empire, learning is the emperor's mental art.

This is just the tip of the iceberg that Liu Saburo has revealed, and the gap between them in the future will ...... Chen Shilang reminded himself that he couldn't just see his corner!
