Chapter 201: Heroes Have No Regrets (3)
Dongfang Hao said: "What do you mean is that if I give up this opportunity, it will be very difficult to win the military power in the future, even if the senior Ning takes the initiative to give me the power, but I don't have the prestige and merit to serve the public, so I can't have the military power in the real sense, so I must seize this opportunity to deprive the old man Ning of the military power, that's what it means, right?"
Dongfang Xue smiled slightly and said, "What I want to say is this truth! Father is really wise." ”
Dongfang Hao nodded, very comforted in his heart, and said: "And I, as the last king of the Star Moon Empire, have not waited for me to deprive Ning of the military power of the seniors, so in your opinion, what kind of ending will I get?"
Dongfang Xue followed her father's thinking and continued to reply: "And if the father deprives Ning of the military power of his predecessors, then as the daughter said before, this practice is tantamount to self-destruction of the Great Wall, and it can even be said that the Empire State Building is crumbling, so no matter which of these two plans, which choice is made, it is impossible to have the best of both worlds!
Dongfang Hao listened to his daughter's discussion so much, but he smiled slightly, and said: "I know what you mean, that is, if I were the king of the Star Moon Empire at that time, no matter what choice I made, I would not be able to achieve a win-win situation, but daughter, you are wrong, there is a way to get the best of both worlds!"
When Dongfang Xue heard her father's words, she immediately retorted: "How is it possible!"
Dongfang Hao touched the tips of her hair, sighed, and said, "Monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, why couldn't they find a way to solve these contradictions at that time?"
Dongfang Xue said: "Father, don't sell it, hurry up! I believe that my father is much smarter than the mediocre King of the Star and Moon Empire! I will definitely come up with a way to get the best of both worlds to solve the contradictions at that time!"
Dongfang Hao heard his daughter's praise like this, and the pride in his heart warmed every drop of blood, and after laughing proudly, he said slowly: "Of course there is a way, if your father is the king of the Star and Moon Empire, then I will divide into two armies, one for the frontal legion, and the other for the odd soldier corps, the frontal legion is led by Ning seniors, and the odd soldier corps is led by me personally, and then fight the alien race by surprise!" In this way, it not only solved the problem of alien invasion, but also ensured my father's prestige in the army, and in addition, it also allowed Ning seniors to witness my ability to march and fight, which can be said to be a strategy of killing three birds with one stone!
After finishing speaking, Dongfang Hao laughed proudly, but after laughing, he didn't wait for his daughter to answer, and hurriedly said: "However, daughter, you have to remember that don't talk about our father and daughter talking about today's topic in front of anyone!"
Dongfang Xue naturally understood, and said: "Of course I know this, my father is still a little more powerful, no, it is much more powerful, this ginger is still old and spicy!"
Dongfang Hao's face suddenly became serious, and said: "Father is still the same sentence, it is not groundless for my father to have today's status, I have dealt with so many enemies, this difficulty is naturally difficult for me, but you have to remember, don't show off any of your father's advantages in this aspect in front of Ning Yiwu's predecessors in the future!"
Although Dongfang Xue understood his father's distress in his heart, he was unhappy in his heart, and said, "Didn't you say that Ning Yiwu's predecessor was tolerant of all rivers?
Dongfang Hao's face suddenly became solemn, and he said: " This is not a trivial matter, you have to remember, no matter how broad-minded your Ning Yiwu predecessor is, when he is not a perfect person, people will have a careful eye, your father and I are no exception, there was a prince who was homeless and wanted to come to me, I did not hesitate to send him to the west, because I was fed up with these royal nobles bullying me when I was a child, this is a person's careful eye, and your Uncle Ning Yiwu used to be like this, there was a friend who was still quite good and insulted his mother, and he killed this person that night!”
Dongfang Xue understood the deep meaning of her father's words, and said, "What my father means is that anyone's mind is limited! So what is the biggest bottom line of Ning Yiwu's senior's mind?"
This topic was perhaps the most important topic for their father and daughter tonight, after all, it was related to the future of their Eastern Family in the Divine Sword Sect.
Dongfang Hao said: "That's to talk less and do more, that's all! As long as we do this, your Uncle Ning Yiwu will respect us quite much!"
Dongfang Xue said: "Is this really the case? But doesn't this mean that you don't say anything? I still want to give Ning Yiwu some ideas!"
Dongfang Hao knew that this girl wanted to shine in Ning Yiwu, but he had to let this girl dispel this thought, and said with a slight smile: "That's it, people are mutual, we talk less and do more, which is the greatest respect for your Ning Yiwu seniors, and it is okay to occasionally give opinions, only by doing this, your Uncle Ning Yiwu will respect our Dongfang family very much, understand?"
Dongfang Xue completely woke up at this time, and said: "My daughter understands, she must say less and do more in the future!" Speaking of this, she suddenly had a new question in her mind, and continued to ask: "Father, I still have a question in my heart!"
"What other questions?" Dongfang Hao still seemed very patient.
Dongfang Xue said: "That's the method that my father just said, it is indeed very wise, as the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, it is impossible for Ning to think of it!"
Dongfang Hao smiled slightly: "That's right, I can think of this kind of solution, and the old Ning seniors who have experienced so many legends, it is absolutely impossible to think of it, as for why they took the initiative to give up their military power in the end, we have no way of knowing the real reason behind this, and we can't tell whether the old Ning seniors were in pain in their hearts at the beginning, or something else, but I know what the last emperor of the Star Moon Empire did later!"
"What did you do?" Dongfang Xue continued to ask.
Dongfang Hao said: "After he deprived Ning of his seniors' military power, he was ready to go on a personal expedition! As for the reason, it is the same as what you just said, that is, he wants to establish absolute imperial authority in the imperial army, and he is unwilling to become a puppet like this, and he wants to become famous in one battle!"
Dongfang Xue listened very seriously this time, and did not interject in a hurry.
Dongfang Hao continued: "This should be the cause of your Uncle Ning Yiwu's first Northern Expedition! The time occurred in the penultimate year of the collapse of the Xingyue Empire! Speaking of which, in fact, this whole process was an intricate palace coup!"
Dongfang Xue said: "Is this another palace coup? Hey, when will this Heavenly Domain be a little more peaceful, these days there have been two coups in a row in the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, I heard that tens of thousands of people have died because of this, I really feel sad for the relatives of these unjust souls!"
Dongfang Xue is familiar with history books, and has always known that the fate of the palace coup is the suffering of the people, the so-called upward and downward effect, this is the reason, the upper echelons of the empire are fighting in such a nest, it is conceivable, how can the lower echelons of the empire stay out of the matter?
Therefore, for the four words "palace coup", Dongfang Xue is extremely disgusted.
Moreover, in the past few days, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect has launched two coups in a row, and another companion of the coup d'état is the Destruction Gate, and in the past few days, due to these two consecutive coups, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect has died tens of thousands of people.
On the way to the Divine Sword Sect, the father and son had already sensed the fear in their hearts from the eyes of those Ten Thousand Sword Sect people, which could no longer be described by sadness, but fear.
Whether it is a palace coup or an ordinary coup d'état like the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, it has always been the beginning of troubled times, and it is also the beginning of human nature being shrouded by demons.
