Chapter 446 [Am I Still Me?]

The old man stared at Chen Daolin for a long time.

Then he coughed lightly twice, and said slowly in a hoarse and old voice: "Darling Chen, although I still can't see what you want to do...... It's surprising that you've made that mess in Rova, but I can't guess what your plan is, what you're trying to accomplish...... But at least, one thing, I'm absolutely sure. ”

"What?" Chen Daolin's expression was a little depressed.

"You ......" Patriarch Liszt pointed to Chen Daolin's nose, "You will never be loyal to Xiluo." In other words, you are destined to be the opponent of that emperor. ”

"This ...... What else do you need to say?" Chen Daolin smiled faintly: "You and I both escaped from the prison in the Xiluo Palace, of course we are not on the right path with that usurper." ”

"No, I'm talking about mortal enemies. ”

Patriarch Liszt shook his head vigorously: "Mortal enemies, and opponents in the ordinary sense, are fundamentally different. ”

As he spoke, the old man pointed to his nose and said with a wry smile: "Although I have been forced to come to the northwest now, but let me tell you the truth, if that Xiluo Majesty comes next and declares reconciliation with my Liszt family, then I will definitely go to the imperial capital as soon as possible to resolve grievances with him." Of course, this is because he is the emperor, and I am just a family within the empire, and I am desperately fighting against the emperor, and the unlucky one is of course my Liszt family in the end.

But this at least shows one point, that is, under certain conditions, an opponent like me can live in harmony with that Xiluo Majesty.

Furthermore. Don't look at the tulip family and the emperor now, as if they are incompatible, and a big war is imminent. But if the right conditions are met...... Maybe the two families can sit down, shake hands, and then you will be your emperor. I do my tulip duke.

Conditions, a qiē thing is about conditions. Especially with such a political character, the stronger the political attributes, the easier it is to make compromises under the right conditions. Politics is never a life-and-death struggle, it is always a constant compromise with each other. Constant marriage.

On the premise of guaranteeing the bottom line, today you let me a little, and tomorrow I will let you a little. That's pretty much it. ”

Chen Daolin's expression moved: "Then why do you say I ......?"

"We could all be on a rapprochement with Shiloh, I, the Tulip family...... But you're the only one, Darling Chen. I don't think you'll ever shake hands with Shiloh. ”

"Why?"

"Because...... The death of Carman and Ro puppy. Patriarch Liszt suddenly threw out such a sentence.

With just this sentence, Chen Daolin's face instantly became gloomy, and his face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost!

"When you were in the imperial capital, although Majesty Marci appreciated you very much, and although you were also angry at the usurpation of the throne by Hilo, to be honest, the kindness that Majesty Marci gave you was far from reaching the point of repaying you with death. You may be grateful for his appreciation and favor for you. But it's nowhere near the point where you can give your life to his allegiance.

And, I also know that before the coup, Shiloh was actually very good to you. He is also very kind to you and treats you as a friend.

Although in the course of the coup d'état, he calculated you several times. But...... In fact, according to my estimate, if there is no death of Carman and Luo Puppies, then in the palace, you will be locked up for a while, maybe...... You'll be relieved. Then, maybe Shiloh gives you a step down, and you go down with it.

Maybe you won't be loyal to Shiloh anytime soon...... But if it weren't for your allegiance. And if you just ask him to cooperate, then maybe you won't be so resistant.

Maybe after a while, you'll be a great great mage under Shiloh's rule.

I mean...... Actually, in the final analysis, you and Shiloh don't have that kind of mortal enmity.

You may despise him because of the usurpation, or you may hate him because he forced His Majesty to death, or you may be a little annoyed because he calculated against you in the process of usurping the throne. But in the final analysis, he didn't kill your father, didn't rob your wife, didn't take your property, and he has always appreciated you, these grievances can actually be resolved slowly. ”

Chen Daolin thought carefully for a while, and actually nodded slowly.

This is the first time he has revealed his heart in front of people so far: "What did you say...... Maybe it makes sense. But...... There are no 'ifs' in this world. ”

"Even if it's just a hypothesis, just admit it. Patriarch Liszt shook his head: "It's a pity, at that time, something happened...... The death of Kaman and Luo Puppy completely cuts off the possibility of reconciliation between you and Shiloh!"

Chen Daolin did not speak.

"Kaman and Luo Xiaopu, from the identity mountain, in that big turmoil, it doesn't seem to be very inconspicuous, in terms of status, they are just after the famous, rising stars, in that big turmoil, it is far from being significant. But for you, Darling Chen, it is of great significance - they are your friends. Or rather, to be seen as your friend. ”

When the old man said this, his cloudy old eyes showed essence, and he stared at Chen Daolin: "...... In the imperial capital, everyone says that you are a genius Master Darling, whether it is in the field of magic or in business, you have shown amazing talent and talent, and even I heard that you have extraordinary insight in Wen Tao's military strategy - but on the contrary, my old man has seen through you, Darling Chen, get rid of those halos on your body, those lights, in your bones, your temperament, in fact, you are just an ordinary person. ”

"Ordinary people?" Chen Daolin smiled bitterly.

"Yes, just an ordinary person. ”

The old man's words seemed to be merciless: "Although the people you have friends with are either rich or noble, even the emperor and princes of the empire, and the important ministers and nobles of the empire are friends with you, but in your bones, you are actually an ordinary person, and you have never had the consciousness of being a superior person and a powerful person. Don't look at you talking to others about politics, the current situation, and national affairs. But in fact, in your bones, you are still a 'little person', just a grassroots. ”

"So?" Chen Daolin frowned.

"The world of ordinary people will only be divided into right and wrong, black and white. It's either right or wrong. It's either black or white, and the grievances are clear! But the real superior will pay attention to the pros and cons, and pay attention to the trade-offs, even if it is to kill the father and the enemy, at the necessary moment. If you can use it to cooperate, even if it is friends and family, you can temporarily abandon it when you need it......! You don't have all of them.

Even now, you may have experienced a lot, and your heart has become a little harder than before. People are more indifferent than before, and people have become more cunning than before...... But what is in your bones has not changed, at least ...... It's also hard for you to change for a long time to come.

In fact, in your bones, you are a person who is too principled. ”

Chen Daolin was speechless.

"Because you're a small person, you're an ordinary person. So you're going to simply divide the people around you into two categories: the good guys and the bad guys. Carman and Luo Puppy are the good people you think you are, and they are also the friends you think you are. And Shiloh, if he kills your friend, then you decide he's the bad guy. No matter what, your sense of morality and emotion cannot tolerate your own obedience to Hilo and obedience to Hilo. So, someone else, me. Even the Duke of Messiah may reconcile with Shiloh at a certain time in the future, under certain conditions, but you can't! You are an ordinary person, you can't have any kind of attitude that looks down on grievances, you can't be like a real political figure, you can't be willing to reconcile with your enemies, you will think that if you don't take revenge, you will be sorry for your own morality, sorry for your dead friends, and sorry for your conscience. ”

Hearing this, Chen Daolin couldn't help but even break out in a cold sweat!

He even had to admit that so far, among all the people he knew in the Roland world, the old man of the Liszt family in front of him was the one who saw himself the most accurately and thoroughly!

He almost saw through his own character!

Even in the face of people as smart as Du Weiwei and strong as Lu Gao, Chen Daolin has never felt completely seen through!

The old man in front of him, the patriarch of the Liszt family, may not be the smartest among the people he knows.

However, his experience, his age, the wisdom he has accumulated all his life, and the eye for seeing people, he has really figured himself out!

"If you're really just an ordinary person, it's fine. Patriarch Liszt shook his head and sighed slowly: "A real little person, an ordinary person, dares to be an enemy of the emperor of a country, then it is just a dead end, and he will be pinched to death if he is light." But you are a strange person, an outlier, you have the temperament of a small person, and you hold the principles of ordinary people, but you have the ability to be far beyond ordinary people.

Shiloh can't pinch you to death at once, and he can't subdue you if he wants to--a guy who is obviously just a little person's mentality, but he has the ability to influence the overall situation, which is the biggest trouble. ”

Troublesome?

Chen Daolin secretly sneered in his heart.

It turns out that I'm just a "troublesome" storage zài for these top bosses of Roland?

He squinted his eyes and looked at Patriarch Liszt with a smile: "Old man, after saying so much, you have spent a lot of energy studying me as a person, but ...... What does this question have to do with whether I marry your daughter or not?"

"Of course it does!

The old man suddenly jumped to his feet and said, "You will never be able to reconcile with Shiloh for a long time to come! And it seems to me that there will be no problem with Shiloh's throne for a long time to come." So that is to say, you ...... It is destined to be the enemy of this supreme of a country! To do such a dangerous thing, you will fight slowly and slowly by yourself, and you will fight until what year and month? Maybe one day, you will be destroyed by Shiloh. ”

"Then you still want me to marry your daughter?" Chen Daolin put his hands behind his back and said lightly: "You should let Luo Daer leave me quickly, and the farther away from me, the better." ”

"I think. Old man Liszt muttered hatefully, and then he sighed: "My daughter has grown up, and I am old, I can't find someone to tie her up and go home like she did when she was a child." Even if I do, she'll find a chance to run out to you in a few days. I can't defend my daughter day and night like a thief. Moreover...... Maybe I don't have a few years to live, and when the time comes, as soon as I close my eyes, she will immediately throw the whole family into your arms, and I will bury me in the ground. will also die blindly. ”

Speaking of this, Patriarch Liszt let out a long breath before looking at Chen Daolin.

This time, the old man's tone became stern:

"Don't think that I came to see you this time, just to force marriage. If you really want to fight Shiloh to the end. Then you need the power of my Liszt. My Liszt family's business is all over the country, and even in the current situation, Shiloh does not dare to openly attack my family. Although I was forced to flee the imperial capital and break away from Shiloh's control, he did not dare to directly declare my Liszt family a rebel. Although in the imperial capital, some of my family's business was suppressed by Shiloh. But all over the country, he didn't dare to touch my family's business! Because if he touched it, he would break the rules and the rules of the game. So...... If you want to do something big, then marry my daughter. Thorough cooperation with my Liszt family is the most labor-saving shortcut. ”

"Is it a marriage?" Chen Daolin smiled bitterly.

"Otherwise, what do you think it is? Is it the love story that those noble ladies circulate in the boudoir? Talented and beautiful women, love at first sight, love to death, and finally have "qingren" to finally become a family? Hmph...... That's the childish stuff!"

Chen Daolin hesitated for a moment, considered his words, and said cautiously: "Mr. Patriarch." Miss Lordelle's character and talent are, of course, excellent. It's also a great honor for me to have her favor......"

The old man's face changed, and he rolled his eyes: "You just say 'but'!"

Chen Daolin smiled bitterly: "But...... This matter between men and women must have an emotional foundation......"

"Affection, you ghost!!"

The old man was suddenly furious!

He jumped up violently and slapped Chen Daolin on the head - with Chen Daolin's ability, it was easy to avoid his slap, but seeing the little old man in front of him jumping like thunder, Chen Daolin finally didn't have the embarrassment to dodge. Let the other party slap him on the head.

"Feelings? When you talk about marriage, you have to talk about feelings! You are the idea of a little person who can't be changed even if you die!" Patriarch Liszt pointed at Chen Daolin, his face full of anger, and shouted: "Do you know that your status is not ordinary now! You have a territory of your own, there are tens of thousands of people, and your magic strength is a genius. Looking at the whole empire, you are already quite famous! When a person like you talks about marriage, he still regards affection as the first condition! Fool! Something that is not a weapon!"

"What are you talking about when you don't talk about feelings when you get married?" Chen Daolin frowned.

"Of course! You can talk about money, you can talk about interests, you can talk about power, you can talk about how much benefits this marriage can bring you! These are the first things! Of course, if you meet the first condition, if the person you marry is also in line with your appetite in appearance and temperament, it is naturally good. But feelings alone should never be taken as a condition by people like you!"

The old man's eyes showed deep disappointment.

He looked at Chen Daolin, shook his head and said, "That's it, that's it." ”

He exhaled and said with a wry smile: "Darling Chen, I sue you, I came to see you halfway this time and asked you if you would marry my daughter, just to see what kind of character you are now!"

Of course, I know that you don't have that kind of affection for my daughter! But if you just agreed to me and agree to marry Rodelle, I will feel that you have finally changed the naïve and naïve ideas of those little people, and you are really worthy of being cultivated! If you can change those stubborn and naïve views before, I think that with your current foundation, if you add the help of my Liszt family, you will at least have the power to protect yourself in the future, even if you are no match for Shiloh.

Only when you have the heart of a true superior can you break out of the world and occupy a place in this empire!

But now, at this moment, you are still saying such childish things...... Then I can see it. With your temperament, how can I rest assured that I will hand over my daughter and the Liszt family to you?"

Chen Daolin was also a little annoyed: "Do you think that if I see the benefits, I will get the benefits if I can marry your daughter, so you can rest assured that I will rush up and marry her regardless of the thirty-seven twenty-one?

"If I were the father of an ordinary man, then I would naturally object to this! But I am the patriarch of the Liszt family! If you can do what you say, I will cheer loudly and be happy for you!"

When the old man said this, he waved his hand: "Okay, that's all for today, I already understand your current thoughts." In that case......"

He hesitated for a moment and stared at Chen Daolin twice: "I'll give you one last chance!

He held up a finger: "In a month, you go back and think about it slowly, if you figure it out and can change your mind, within a month, I can still marry my daughter to you! But if you still can't figure it out in a month, and you can't change this damn mentality, then you are destined to rot wood and can't be carved! Even if I try to make my daughter hateful, I will take Rodelle home, even if I lock her up for three or five years, I will never let her run to you again!"

With your mentality, the mentality of a small person, if you want to be the enemy of the king of a country, you will definitely lose in the future! I don't want to send my daughter and my family to your funeral. ”

After saying that, the old man turned around and left, returned to the carriage, slapped the carriage fiercely, and shouted: "Let's go! Leave here a little longer, and the more angry I will be!"

Watching the patriarch of the Liszt family leave in a bad mood, the carriage gradually ran away, and Chen Daolin let out a long sigh.

"So I ...... It hasn't changed all along, and it's still the mentality of the ** silk. ”

Chen Daolin smiled bitterly and said to himself.

But even Chen Daolin himself had to admit that this old man of the Liszt family really saw himself through!

The real big people only talk about the pros and cons, and only the little people will naively distinguish between right and wrong, black and white.

From beginning to end, I still have the mentality of ** silk that I have cultivated in the real world.

Reconciling with Shiloh? That's impossible.

The moment Kaman and Luo Xiaogou died in the palace hall, it was destined that Chen Daolin would never have the slightest possibility of cooperating with Xiluo again.

Chen Daolin asked himself if he was righteous, and stuck a knife in his friend's ribs. But at least, the person who killed his friend, Chen Daolin will never have anything to do with the other party anymore.

He also admitted that there was still a lot of value in the words of old man Liszt.

Can it be ......

"Even if you know it's going to be beneficial...... But, I just don't like it!"

Chen Daolin clenched his fists and swung them vigorously at the sky.

"If I did that, would I still be me!!"

- What Darlinggo didn't know at this moment was that a hundred and forty years ago in this world, there was also a talented and unruly young man who said something similar.

If I did that, would I still be me!
