After listening to Lao Tzu's lesson, Qu Ziduo gritted his teeth and remained silent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The minister raised his glass with admiration and said: "Brother Shouyi is worthy of being a man who stands up to the sky, good minded, good bearing, when he is a big white!" ”

"Humph!" It's just that in the face of the enthusiastic disobedient, Qu Shouyi looked at him coldly, "I can afford to lose, but I still can't get used to your villain's face!" ”

"How did I become a villain?" If you don't obey, that's called a wrong.

Qu Shouyi sneered: "If you occupy a little bigger territory, you dare to call yourself the emperor, you are not a villain, what is a villain?" ”

Buchen rolled his eyes when he heard this, and he patiently explained to Qu Shouyi (who didn't understand who was embarrassed by the combination of righteous words and unsolved words): "This is only temporary, I will soon be able to expel the beast captives and restore Donghua!" ”

"The mantis arm is a car, and I have never seen anyone succeed since ancient times!" After that, Qu Shouyi took his wine glass and drank it all, and then wiped his mouth.

Buchen smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Shouyi, the times are different, although I only have a corner of the land, but thanks to my powerful political system and industry, the power I can mobilize is 100% of this corner of the land, and even if the beast captives occupy the eastern kingdom in a good way, the strength it can mobilize will not exceed 10%, I will fight against him with 100%, plus the strong armor and soldiers who far surpass them, the balance of victory is actually tilted on my side!" ”

Qu Shouyi was silent when he heard this, before the start of the previous war, he already knew very well about Buchen's measures, and in terms of his heart, he admired it very much, but Qu Yongchen didn't think so, so that Weiyuan Wangfu missed the opportunity to develop and grow!

Seeing that Qu Shouyi was silent, Buchen smiled proudly and continued: "Presumably, with the talent of Brother Shouyi, you can see where my political advantages are, right? ”

Qu Shouyi nodded slightly.

"However, if Brother Tai respects me again, what is the point of not using it?" Buchen stretched out his hand and pointed to Qu Yongchen, who was tied up like a zongzi, about Qu Shouyi's former admonition, as well as Qu Yongchen's denial, Buchen has already heard Qu Zhixiong say it, so it is clear.

Qu Shouyi sighed and said, "This is my Weiyuan Qu family!" ”

Buchen shook his head: "What does this have to do with the heavens?" This is completely your Qu family's self-destruction! It's a man-made disaster! ”

Qu Shouyi glanced at Buchen angrily: "If it weren't for you, how could my Weiyuan Qu family die?" ”

"It's just the death of a family and a surname, and if you die, you will die!" Buchen patted Qu Shouyi's shoulder across the table: "If you don't want the Eastern Kingdom to perish in the world right now, our generation of people with lofty ideals still have a lot to do!" ”

Qu Shouyi heard what was in Buchen's words, and his eyes narrowed: "My generation of people with lofty ideals, you won't count me in it, right?" ”

Buchen nodded: "That's what I'm here for." ”

"Let me grovel to you?!" Qu Shouyi sneered and asked, "It's just a thief!" ”

"That's ugly!" Buchen pursed his lips, "It is a thief who steals a copper coin, and a thief who steals a tomb of the emperor of a previous dynasty is also a thief, but if that thief steals a large piece of territory and finally steals the world, is he still a thief?!" ”

"Naturally!" Qu Shouyi said categorically, "No matter how great a thief is, he is also a thief!" ”

Buchen rolled his eyes and found that he was no longer able to communicate with Qu Shouyi: "Brother Shouyi, your prejudice against me is completely a personal grudge, at the moment when the country is ruined and the mountains and rivers are broken, don't you think you should let go of these personal grievances and work together for a greater goal?" ”

"That's a nice thing to say, but in the end, it's not your own benefit? But all kings regard all the people and rivers in the world as their private property, and after the beasts are expelled, don't you want to ride on the heads of all the people of the east to be powerful?! Qu Shouyi disdainfully said.

Buchen gritted his teeth: "Brother Shouyi, I can guarantee with my personality that I will not treat all the people and rivers in the world as private property like those feudal kings in the past, but will lead the country and civilization forward as a public servant!" ”

"I don't believe you!" Qu Shouyi looked at him coldly.

Buchen was completely speechless, and simply confessed to Qu Shouyi: "My ideal country is a society governed by the rule of law, and everyone must act according to the rules in everything, regardless of wealth or poverty, regardless of bloodline, and there is no so-called privilege!" In order to achieve this goal, I will do whatever it takes, even to the detriment of my own interests! ”

Buchen's expression and tone did not have a trace of hypocrisy, which made Qu Shouyi couldn't help but be moved, but then he shook his head: "I was born in the four towns of Wushan at the turn of the East and the West, and I have heard the stories of many idealistic grand dukes or kings in the Western Continent, but at the end of these stories, they will either compromise with reality, or they will end up miserable, your ideals are very good, but I don't think you will succeed!" ”

Buchen's patience was completely exhausted, and he glared at Qu Shouyi and shouted: "The road is walked by people!" If you don't try, how do you know you're going to fail?! ”

Qu Shouyi shook his head calmly: "I just don't have the interest in repeating the mistakes of the past." ”

Buchen stood up from the cushion with a "swish", what does it mean not to speculate for more than half a sentence? It's called!

"Sister Ai Ai, let's go!" With that, Buchen strode towards the outside of the prison.

Ai Ai knew that Buchen had already collapsed with Qu Shouyi, and there was no room for recovery, so he didn't talk nonsense at the moment, and after confessing his guilt to Qu Shouyi, he also stood up and hurriedly followed Buchen.

Buchen walked outside angrily, completely ignoring anything else, and bumped into a person when he left the prison gate!

"Oh, Your Majesty! Why don't you look at the dots when you walk? ”

Qu Zhixiong covered his forehead, lying on the ground and complaining.

Although Buchen has changed the body of an ordinary person, after all, he is young and strong, much stronger than the so-called "wise general" who is in his forties and relies entirely on intelligence to eat, so under the collision, he has nothing to do, and General Qu fell down......

Seeing Qu Zhixiong's misery, Buchen was also a little ashamed, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull the other party up: "Zhixiong, why are you here?" ”

"I heard that the emperor came to prison, and I knew that you wanted to persuade Qu Shouyi's father and son to be used by my empire, so I hurried here in case something went wrong!" Qu Zhixiong explained briefly, and then immediately asked with concern, "How is it?" Your Majesty, how are you talking? ”

As soon as he mentioned this, he was full of anger, and he left with a sentence of "Since you are here, just ask yourself", and left angrily.

"Imperial Concubine Niangniang, this ......" Qu Zhixiong pointed to the back of the unsubordinate and asked Ai Ai who was following behind.

Ai Ai's face was not good-looking, she shook her head and said: "The emperor has already talked to Qu Shouyi, but Qu Shouyi still refuses to agree. ”

After saying this, Ai Ai also hurried away.

Qu Zhixiong looked at the backs of Buchen and Ai Ai, looked inside the prison again, hesitated for a while, and then walked inside.

When Qu Zhixiong arrived, he saw Qu Shouyi's father and son lying on the low table eating and drinking.

"Shouyi, you still eat it!" Qu Zhixiong stomped his feet angrily when he saw this.

When Qu Shouyi saw him, his face immediately put on a sneer: "I can't be a minister in the same hall with you as a traitor, brother, I'm really sorry!" ”

"! You should know very well that the emperor is really here to recruit you, right? The king of a country is here in person! It's enough to give you face, why are you still so ignorant? Qu Zhixiong asked angrily.

Qu Shouyi stopped eating and drinking when he heard this, lowered his face and nodded: "I can hear that he is sincere, and he also has the ability to achieve his goals." ”

"Then why didn't you say yes?!" Qu Zhixiong looked at him in disbelief.

"Traitor." Qu Shouyi suddenly smiled and raised his eyes to look at Qu Zhixiong: "You have to sit as a high-ranking official now, and the soldiers and generals of my Qu family are also living a down-to-earth life, but have you ever thought that my Weiyuan Palace's reign has been dominant in the world for a hundred years, and if there are not even one or two people who continue to be loyal to their descendants after the defeat, how desolate and pathetic it should be?!" ”

"You are just for this disobedience to the emperor's kindness?!" Qu Zhixiong was stunned.

"Have you ever heard of Lian Tao? is the general who is not subordinate in the world. Qu Shouyi asked suddenly.

Qu Zhixiong nodded, of course he had heard of Lian Tao's name, at this time, this Lian family general had already been awarded the title of prince by non-subordinate, given a mansion, and was living in Chang'an City for a long time.

"Since the fall of the Seventeenth Dynasty, the family of the world has been defeated for three hundred years, but there are still loyal ministers who continue to be loyal to it, even if my Qu family is not as good as the family of the world, but it can't just fall and scatter, right?!" Qu Shouyi's rhetoric is deafening.

A look of shame appeared on Qu Zhixiong's face: "So you have already decided?" ”

"Yes." Qu Shouyi nodded heavily, "No, that kid has your assistance, it is enough to complete the expulsion of the beast captives and restore the great cause of Donghua, there is no more than me, no less than me, it doesn't matter at all." ”

Qu Zhixiong didn't say anything more, just respectfully bowed to Qu Shouyi, and then turned around and left without hesitation.

At this time, Qu Yongchen, who originally saw Qu Zhixiong, a big traitor, had red eyes, and tears also appeared in his eyes.

As the saying goes: the road knows the horsepower, and the people will see it for a long time.

True loyalists are not usually very flattering, but in times of crisis, they will definitely stand up and fight for their monarch or country, even if there are high officials in front of them, and the most tempting things that can be found in the world!
