Chapter 173: A Transformation of Mind

Ao Wuchang and Tie Le intercepted Zhu Youzhu at the triumphal arch thirty miles out of the capital, and Xiao Wuxian fought him after only one day.

If it is hard to deal with Xiao Tianhe, Ling Jinglian and Zhu Youjiao, who control 80% of the army of the Ming Empire, Zhu Youcong is not an opponent at all. But the current situation is that the capital has fallen into the hands of Zhu Youcong, His Majesty Emperor Shenzong, as well as Hua Liuliu, Yu Ziqian and Ling Yunxi's family members must have fallen.

They are now a rat trap, and the lives of Ziqian and others who are not careful will not be guaranteed. Especially Ling Yunxi's family, Ling Yunxi is not in him now, he has to ensure Zhu Qingping's safety, and he can't tolerate the slightest mistake.

"Innocent, now that the capital has fallen into the hands of Zhu Youcong, and the father and emperor must have also fallen into his hands, what should we do!" Zhu Youzhu said.

When leading the troops to fight, Zhu Youzhu was a good hand, decisive in handling things, and brilliant in intelligence, but as soon as he met Xiao Wuxie, he returned to his previous state, and he liked to ask Xiao Wuxian about everything.

"We don't know anything about the situation in the city now, let's go into the city tomorrow to see the situation, don't worry, Zhu Youcong, I have never regarded him as an opponent?" Xiao Wuxian's voice was a little cold.

"Lao Zhu, if you ......"

"Innocent, after so many years of our brothers, what else can't we say?"

Xiao Wuxie spoke directly, and he had never spoken, but now he was a little unspeakable!

But thinking about it, Xiao Wuxian still spoke, "Old Zhu, have you ever thought about what you would do if it wasn't for Zhu Youcong's plot to usurp the throne, but a trap deliberately set by your father?"

Zhu Youzhu never thought that Xiao Wuxian would say such a thing anyway, but he was silent now. Because Xiao Wuxian was telling the truth, he didn't have much contact with the emperor, so naturally he couldn't talk about any family affection.

Since ancient times, the emperor has been ruthless, and he is now in the world, and he has pacified the rebellion of the king of Ning and extinguished the soldiers of the Southern Barbarians outside, even if he has high merit and is not impossible.

The glory he has achieved now has completely overshadowed the emperor, and since ancient times, the emperor has been jealous and suspicious. His presence in the eyes was already a serious threat to the emperor's dominance, and the side of the couch could not allow others to sleep peacefully.

If His Majesty Emperor Shenzong wants to solve this threat to himself, it is not impossible. Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhu didn't dare to think about it anymore, he was really afraid that this matter was true.

At this time, there were only him and Xiao Wuxian in the camp, Xiao Wuxian had never met his parents, and he had never experienced the friendship between father and son. So although he knew that Zhu Youzhu was not having a good time at the moment, he didn't know how to comfort him.

"If it's really my father's doing, what are you going to do?" asked Zhu Youjiao, who raised his head!

Arrogant and impermanent had already said that he was intercepted and killed by the two major families before Xiao Wuxian came, if this matter was really done by Emperor Shenzong, then the matter was not what he wanted to do, and with Xiao Wuxie's code of conduct, no one knew what he would do.

However, after getting along with Xiao Wuxian for so long, he still knows a little bit about Xiao Wuxie's character. When dealing with the enemy, this is definitely a ruthless person who will never be merciful.

"I won't let go of anyone who is my enemy, if it's really Zhu Yuzhen's doing, I will definitely not be the slightest soft!" Xiao Wuxian said very plainly, but it was all from the heart.

He didn't want to lie to Zhu Youzhang, and he also believed that even if he didn't say Zhu Youzhang, he would be able to guess his answer. Xiao Wuxian will never show mercy to his enemies, no matter who this person is. This is a character he has cultivated since he was a child, and he can't change it, and he doesn't want to change it.

Zhu Youzhu didn't speak, but nodded with a somewhat depressed expression. It's not because Xiao Wuxie's answer disappointed him, but because he was saddened by the friendship between his father and son.

His mother died in childbirth from birth, and although he was a prince, he was not even as good as an ordinary child. Although those ordinary children were born ordinary and could not be fed and clothed, they were able to get the most sincere and simple love from their parents.

But as for him, although he has a father, this father has never taken the initiative to look at him since he was born. I can't even remember my birthday, and in the end of my mind, I can see it from a distance when I hold a sacrifice ceremony, and I can't even be a stranger on weekdays.

He didn't say anything, but in his heart he wanted to be cared for by his father. When he was a child, he constantly comforted himself, and one day his father remembered him and would give him a birthday. But he waited year after year, but he never waited.

In his young heart, he even thought that he was not good enough, so his father would not love him. So he worked hard to learn, and before the age of ten, he far surpassed other princes in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, as well as poetry and songs, but the reality was that he also did not get the favor of the high-ranking "father".

So he gave up, he knew that he would not be able to get the love of his father in his life, so he began to become cynical, and he did things absurdly, causing trouble everywhere, fighting with the princes in the palace, and insulting the ministers.

Fortunately, he still had some use for doing something, at least it caught the attention of that person. Although he would be severely punished every time, he would not be happy because he succeeded, and the man finally began to talk to him.

Who would have thought that this is the simple idea of a child? But what a cruel thing it is for him to face such a fact!

"Tell me, do you want to be the emperor or not?" Xiao Wuxian clasped Zhu Youzhang's shoulders with both hands and said solemnly.

Zhu Youzhang's expression was very lonely, he could see that Zhu Youzhu was very sad, and even his fighting spirit was disappearing little by little. He knew that it was because he couldn't stand the blow and began to give up on himself, he understood it well, but he couldn't let it go.

"If you want to be an emperor, you have to have the courage to be an emperor. It is said that the emperor is ruthless, sometimes ruthlessness also has the benefit of ruthlessness, think about the people of the world, if the throne falls into the hands of the crown prince or the third prince, what will the people in the world face?"

Zhu Youzhu raised his head and looked at Xiao Wuxian silently for a while, and didn't say a word. In the end, Xiao Wuxian was a little creepy, "You, what do you think?"

Suddenly, Zhu Youzhu laughed, and his smile was still a little naughty, "I have never seen you Xiao Dashao so good at persuading people, it turns out that you also have a sensual side!"

Oh, I'm grass, this is making fun of me, Xiao Wuxie's face is a black line!

glared at Zhu Youzhu fiercely, and then both of them burst into laughter, just like when they were drinking, laughing unscrupulously, heartless!

Now Xiao Wuxian is no longer worried, because he knows that Zhu Youzhu has regained his confidence and found himself from his loss. Such a change makes his whole person look more kingly.

Since Zhu Yujun doesn't care about father-son affection, why does he attach so much importance to father-son affection. If he can be worthy of his heart, why cling to the ethereal family affection for him.
