"Does Your Highness know about fish and bear's paws?" He Nan did not talk about Jiang Chen's case according to Qi Dan's meaning, but asked Qi Dan a question.

"The saying of the fish and the bear's paw is from "Mencius and Gaozi". Qi Dan said, "Fish, I want it, and I want it; ”

"Life is also what I want, and righteousness is also what I want; He Nan listened to Qi Dan's origin, and continued.

"Life is what I want, and what I want is greater than that of the living, so I do not get it, and death is also what I hate, and what I do evil is greater than that of the dead, so I suffer from what I cannot refuge." ”

"If you make a man want more than life, then why not use him who can be born, and if he does nothing worse than the dead, then why not do anything that can get rid of the sick?"

...... The two of them just finished the article like solitaire like a solitaire.

"I want to ...... You shouldn't be just trying to take the test, will I be able to memorize this article?" Qi Dan joked.

"I don't dare. He Nan bowed slightly, "It's just that the current situation is like a trade-off between a fish and a bear's paw." Minister...... Dilemma. ”

"You don't mean to say that you have to sacrifice your life for righteousness. Qi Dan narrowed his eyes, his face displeased. In Qi Dan's view, He Nan is a smart person like himself, and he is the kind of person who is arrogant and arrogant. It is precisely because he agrees that He Nan is a smart person that he does not understand why he has such a stupid idea as "sacrificing his life for righteousness".

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. "I don't want to sacrifice my life for righteousness, not to mention that my life and death are not in my hands. I just want to state the stakes, and then His Highness will naturally make a decision. ”

"Jiang Chen and I are fish and bear's paws. ”

"Rhetoric, so it is mysterious. Jiang Chen is a son of my Jiang family, and a member of the household department. You are a little Bapin Fucheng, do you dare to compare yourself with him?" Jiang Wenbing was very disdainful of He Nan's words, "The severed limbs and stump palms of the bear can actually be confused with the koi with the golden scales and red tops. ”

He Nan glanced at Jiang Wenbing and did not refute: "A single bear paw really can't be compared with a precious koi, but if it can domesticate a fierce bear, it will be different." ”

"Go on. Qi Dan was curious about what He Nan meant by "a bear", so he asked him to continue.

"If you want to deal with my master, the bear's paw will turn into a bear. Value...... Far better than the fish that you don't like. He Nan actually said such a rebellious thing as if nothing happened.

He...... Is it crazy? Qi Dan, Jiang Wenbing, Zhu Zhao'er, Zhang Siming, and even Du Liang, who was still drunk, were all shocked by He Yan in their hearts. Everyone present knew that He Nan had the nickname of "He Crazy", but they all thought that his usual behavior was just pretending to be crazy and stupid, who knew that he would dare to say such a wild thing.

"You...... But that doesn't explain why you can't have it both ways. It seems to me that there is no conflict. “

"It's simple...... Today, many people have received the news of my visit to your banquet. If I deal with Jiang Chen after I go back, then these people will think that there is no negotiation between us. If Jiang Chen is dead, then the contradiction between me and the Jiang family will be irreconcilable, who can think that you will use Jiang Chen's life as a bargaining chip to make me defect? After all, I am not an important person. But if I let Jiang Chen go back and let him go...... This behavior can not be washed away even if you jump into the Yellow River. Do you think my master will still trust me? So even if I ride on your high branch...... It doesn't make sense to you or me. He Nan made a cutting gesture to his neck.

"You came to me, just because you thought that I was quite hidden and easy to use as a chess piece buried in Shanhe Mansion and under my master's hands, but if I didn't wait for the chess piece to play a role, someone would find out...... Will the next one be so easy to bury?"

"I never said that I invited you to stumble on Li Yushi...... It's all your nonsense. And believe it or not, just by what you are saying now...... I will kill you on the spot, and it will be considered light for you to be guilty of a crime. Qi Dan's eyes burst out with a sharp cold light, like two sharp swords against He Nan's face.

"Whether it's my wishful thinking or nonsense, since you don't mean it, it's me talking too much, if I have the life to go back...... I definitely won't chew this tongue anymore, just treat it as if it wasn't like that. If you don't feel at ease, you can kill me now, and it doesn't hurt to say that I am guilty of treason, anyway, everyone present can prove that I am innocent of my words. But...... The three of them became tigers, and it is not unjust that I died at this point today, and I will no longer know what outsiders say, what if my master may have left such a knot in his heart? If he puts a knife under your pillow first, can you sleep?" As the two talked, the atmosphere gradually became delicate and solemn. In other words, He Nan's situation was undoubtedly held by a knife on his neck, and this knife was handed to Qi Dan by himself. However, his demeanor was as usual, and he did not seem to feel afraid, but was straightforward and unpredictable.

"I ...... Can it be understood that you are bargaining?" Qi Dan couldn't understand the person in front of him. It is true that he is afraid of death almost under Jiang Wenbing's palm, and it is true that he is not afraid of death when he calmly says rebellious words......

"Yes, no matter how you understand it. You can even understand that I am threatening you, or sowing discord between you and Lord Zuo Fengyi, and the relationship between you and my master. He Nan still had wine and meat in his mouth, and the scene of the mess even gave people the illusion that he had calmly died and was eating a severed meal.

Qi Dan was laughed at by He Nan's mouth: "He Nan, He Nan...... Do you think that the status between you and me is equal? Or is the relationship between you and me so familiar that you can speak unscrupulously without obeying the law of etiquette? Could it be that we are all drunk and in a dream, and you are the real five princes of Shengguo?"

“...... Of course, there is a distinction between dignity and inferiority, you are a prince, and I am a small mansion. But in this matter, our 'position' is the opposite - you came to me on your own initiative, and I never had any intention of asking you. I know that you have more than one choice for me, and I also know that you are not begging me, but soliciting, and it is the superior who throws a rope to climb up to the inferior. ”

"Both you and my master have given me a rope, and as long as I hold on to it, it's like a pawn crossing the river - there's no turning back. When the time comes, it's up to you whether to leash or drag, how high I can climb and when to throw it down for me, it's also a matter of your blink. ”

In other words...... What I want is not determined by how much I want it, but by whether you want to give it or not. So it doesn't matter which side I choose, it doesn't make a difference. ”

After listening to He Nan's "heartfelt words", Qi Dan's doubts could not be said to be swept away, but he also understood He Nan's mood a little.

The chaotic and vague image of "He Maniac" in his eyes gradually became clear, and he knew why he could see two diametrically opposed shadows in He Nan. Because he asked for something but didn't get it, he was afraid of death, because he was a cheap life, so he was not afraid of death, because he was a little pawn, so he had to follow a master, but he was just a little pawn, so it didn't matter to him who he followed.

This is the pity of ants, Qi Dan suddenly had such a feeling in his heart. "That's a good thing, but I think you're honest at this point. But you and I don't seem to trust each other enough to talk about things like this, right?"

He Nan didn't seem to take this sharp question seriously at all, "From ancient times to the present, the biggest problem of spies is loyalty, I can be loyal to my master because of affection, and I can also be loyal to you because of interests. Trust? This kind of thing isn't even a fart to a spy. If you really have any room to spare, you can guess how true or false my advice is. Rest assured, I won't tell you or you...... You don't trust me either, do you? But since I came here today, my master's trust in me has not been tenth. ”

"If it's not ten, then what's the difference between it and zero? We're not in the same boat yet, if you don't worry about me, or if you really don't have any intention of participating in the court strife, it's really too late to kick me off the boat now, you think I'm my master sent to fight against you. But if you want more than that...... I don't think anything I've said before is a drunken gaffe. ”

Since ancient times, excellent strategists have been very good at settling accounts—settling their own accounts, settling the accounts of their lords, and settling the accounts of the world...... Su Qin's "Hezhong", Zhang Yi's "Lianheng", Zhuge Liang's "Longzhong Pair", and Mao Jue's "Fengtianzi to Order Not to Obey"...... and so on undoubtedly take the matter of "settling accounts" to the extreme. Of course, He Nan can't be compared with the above, but he has already calculated Qi Dan's account very clearly in and out of his words - what he wants is not the current situation, since the person in front of him can do as a traitor can be justified, there is no reason why he doesn't need him to give it a try, the worst result is just to advance the time to tear his face, not to mention that he still has other chips in his hand.

It's just that Qi Dan is still a little unhappy in his heart - he seems to be a little led by the nose by the guy in front of him. He Nan...... Instead, he gave himself a lesson called "Dominating the Crowd".

The fifth prince thought for a while, then beckoned to He Nan and motioned for him to follow him into the back hall. The two of them whispered in the back hall for about an hour before they came out.

Seeing that the hour was late and the banquet was almost done, He Nan said goodbye with Zhu Zhao'er. Just as he stepped out of the main hall, Qi Dan suddenly called him from behind.

"Congratulations...... You really are the most despicable and shameless person I have ever met. ”

He turned his head and looked at the five princes standing in the center of the hall with his hands in his hands, revealing a smile that was different from all the previous smirks and bitter smiles, it was an extremely sincere smile. "You're in for a treat. ”
