Chapter 33, The Roots (I)
When he first returned to the family, Zhu Xiao thought that this part of the internal worries was completely because his family was unwilling to be in such a small city, so he wanted to force Zhu Xiao to destroy the royal family. Zhu Xiao came back this time mainly to solve the external troubles, but when Di He sat down, Zhu Xiao knew that this time in the empire, Zhu Xiao's biggest trouble was internal worries.
Dihe didn't know what Zhu Xiao was thinking at this time, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Zhu Xiao, as long as you are willing to make a move, it's fine." I'll tell you the source of the matter first, so you know what to do next. ”
Zhu Xiao didn't say anything, Zhu Xiao didn't want to say anything, seeing that Zhu Xiao hadn't spoken, Zhu Lie said: "Emperor Dihe, please tell us everything, otherwise, our Zhu clan will have no way to deal with this matter." ”
Zhu Lie's words made Di He's face change slightly, and after a while, he said lightly: "Zhu Xiao, you are not in the empire, so you don't know anything about the things in the empire!" Di He said simply, and then he said lightly: "Actually, the old man of the Atayal clan has many children, and he has thirty-five biological children. However, these children have been gradually destroyed, and of course, I was also the one who was able to help me, and most of his children were killed by me. And, when I was about to do it, he found me, and at that time, he had five children left. In a family like ours, as long as it is for the sake of profit, anything can be discussed, even if the old man knows that I did it, he has no way to deal with me, because I have a lot of power to support me. This force, I'm not afraid to tell you, it's the Missing Gate!"
"What!" this made Zhu Xiao unexpected, even Zhu Xiao was so surprised that he couldn't speak at this time!
Dihe looked very calm, and continued: "Of course, in fact, I also know that when Wuyuanmen is supporting me, he also wants to use me, but it is just for profit. It is precisely because of the existence of the Fate Gate that the old man does not dare to deal with me easily, and he has to cooperate with me. He made some conditions, that when I became emperor of the empire, he would ask for half of the power, and at the same time, he wanted me to pass on the throne to his grandson, and of course, he would not let me touch his children. ”
Speaking of which, Zhu Xiao already knows everything, it seems that the old man also died at the hands of Dihe, if you want to truly become the emperor of the Atayal Empire, you can't do it without paying something.
Di He sank into the memories of the past, and he continued: "My conditions are very simple, from that time on, he is in the dark, I am in the light, competing with each other for the throne, for the brothers and sisters in the family who have some ability, let the old man do it, if you are closer to the old man, I will do it." Because of this pact with the old man, I soon became the rightful heir to the throne of the emperor in my family. However, it was at this time that I found out that the old man had done something in secret, and although I had the support of the army, I was just an empty shelf. The old man was going to let me come out and then destroy me, the first bird. It was because of knowing this that I had to go out and find support. In fact, for the sake of balance, only a few forces had such strength at that time. ”
In that case, the major families in the imperial capital are no longer available, and the only ones who can balance this situation are the Silver Moon Sand Wolf Clan and the Snake Man Clan. Both of these forces are very powerful, and they have very little contact with the Terrans on weekdays.
"The Snake Clan and the Silver Moon Sand Wolf Clan?"
Di He nodded towards Zhu Xiao and said, "That's right, it is these two forces, they are too powerful, as long as a certain party's forces are introduced, then I still have room for maneuver." Unfortunately, these two forces do not want to get involved in this troubled waters, no matter how much I try to persuade them. ”
Zhu Xiao was very clear about these two forces, and couldn't help but smile and said: "The Silver Moon Sand Wolf Clan may be able to talk about it, the Snake Clan, they have a grudge against our Terran Clan, and it's good that they didn't beat you out!"
For this, Di He also had to nod, he had to admire Zhu Xiao, he said: "These two forces are not so easy to subdue, I was already desperate at that time, but at this time, I found you." He is young, but he has a peculiar personality, and in the auction room, there are just some simple gold coins, and those gold coins are the most worthwhile for me to spend!"
"Hahaha, I was nothing at that time, even if I am now, I am nothing!"
Di He waved his hand and said, "Originally, I had already given up and was ready to compromise with the old man, but I gradually discovered that you were unusual, and in a short period of time, you have already emerged." However, I don't dare to put more things on you, after all, your enemy is too powerful, and Nanliemen is the most powerful existence in the empire. However, you did not disappoint me, and after you blocked the revenge of Nanliemen a few times, I knew that you would be my greatest help. Sure enough, you didn't disappoint me, even in the final battle, you dealt with the strongest kind of existence. ”
Speaking of this, Di He smiled at Zhu Xiao, and then said: "Zhu Xiao, in fact, after you destroy the Nanlie Gate, the thing I am most worried about is that you will want to become the second Nanlie Gate, and you want to make the Zhu family a royal family in one fell swoop, but soon I will know that I am wrong, Atayal Empire, you Zhu Xiao still can't look down on it." ”
Zhu Xiao hurriedly shook his head, laughed and said: "Hahaha, Emperor Dihe, you are wrong, in fact, I don't look down on the Atayal Empire, I just know the strength of my Zhu Clan! Besides, if I really look down on the Atayal Empire, then don't I also look down on our Zhu Clan, after all, my Zhu Clan is also a part of the Atayal Empire!"
Di He shook his head, and then said: "Zhu Xiao, do you know that it is precisely because of this that the current Atayal Empire is in great trouble. The biggest trouble of the empire now is both external and internal troubles, or it can be said that this time the crisis of the empire is actually internal troubles, and it has nothing to do with external troubles. ”
"Di He said so much, it is nothing more than to ask the patriarch to help him! It seems that the empire is indeed in great trouble, but this time it must be Di He in front of him who caused this crisis!" Tang Zheng is not the elder of the Zhu clan, but Tang Zheng has a special status among the Zhu clan, and he still didn't say a word at this time, but he muttered in his heart.
And when Di He said this, no one answered, Tang Zheng thought twice, he hugged his fists towards Di He and Zhu Xiao, and then said cautiously: "Emperor Di He, patriarch, please let me say a word!"
Tang Zheng's words made Di He slightly surprised, even Zhu Xiao was shocked at this time, however, Zhu Xiao was very clear about Tang Zheng's personality, Zhu Xiao nodded, and said: "Brother Tang Zheng, if you have anything, please speak up, no need to be polite!"
"Emperor Dihe, patriarch, if this crisis comes from external troubles, then as long as the strength is enough, and the division is famous, it is nothing for my Zhu clan to do anything, after all, it is to defend the empire, not only my Zhu clan's affairs, but even everyone in the entire empire should be like this. ”
Hearing Tang Zheng say this, Zhu Xiao understood what Tang Zheng meant, of course Zhu Xiao admired Tang Zheng very much, but at this time, he also shook his head, and pretended to be annoyed and said: "Brother Tang Zheng, what do you mean by this, you must not be rude! Anything for the good of the empire, my Zhu clan must go all out!"
Tang Zheng heard Zhu Xiao's voice, he immediately shook his head, and said: "Family Master, even if you say so, I have to say it! Now not only my Zhu clan needs to recover quickly, but even the empire is the same! In my opinion, the current empire needs to recuperate, and the strength of the empire needs to be quickly improved to the strength of the great empire. After all, in the previous war, whether it was my Zhu clan or the royal Atayal clan, they all lost a lot of strong men in that war! The current Atayal Empire is not as strong as the surrounding empires, if our empire does not quickly replenish its own strength, then our empire will definitely lag behind the surrounding empires. The head of the family, you must also know that in such a continent where the weak eat the strong, being strong does not necessarily attract hostility, but weakness will definitely attract hostility. ”
"Big Brother Tang Zheng is really very smart, he can see the root of the matter at a glance! Now that Big Brother Tang Zheng has a pivotal position in the family, if he is willing, he might as well hand over the position of an elder to him. The current family needs someone who can stay awake at all times!"
secretly applauded Tang Zheng in his heart, but on the other side, Zhu Xiao's face showed that he was extremely dissatisfied with Tang Zheng, and his face was cloudy, making it unclear what Zhu Xiao was thinking.
Seeing this, Di He hurriedly stopped Zhu Xiao and said: "Zhu Xiao, you don't need to be angry, I think Tang Zheng's idea is also right! The current empire is indeed inferior to those powerful empires, and the surrounding empires are also beginning to eyeing the Atayal Empire." However, if the empire can't even avoid this catastrophe in front of it, let alone the crisis in the future. Zhu Xiao, no matter what, I hope you can help solve the current crisis! As long as you help me solve the current crisis, no matter what kind of conditions you want to propose, I will agree!"
(It's embarrassing again, and I'll be sealed under the quilt every day!)
