Every man in this world will have a common problem, either greedy for money, or love for power, or lustful, even if it is a miraculous martial idiot in the rivers and lakes, a genius immersed in martial arts, or a master of the Tao who opened a sect, he still can't escape from this circle, and he can't get rid of this custom.

Wei Shengzhao is not surprised by this, he claims to be not a greedy and lustful person, but he loves power. The pinnacle of power is to become an emperor, and he has paid a lot for it, and gradually he begins to not know himself.

Wei Shengzhao was born in the royal family, the eldest son of the founding monarch of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and was born on a road paved for him by his predecessors, and was born superior. Growing up in such an environment was extremely stressful, with servants privately judging him, and elders comparing him to their fathers to his face, and then reprimanding him for not seeking advancement.

Therefore, Wei Shengzhao's personality has been very introverted and precocious since he was a child, he is very quiet, and he is also very gentle, often reading silently alone, and he does not like to pester adults to eat and play like other children.

When he was four years old, Wei Shengyou was born, and as this younger brother gradually grew up, he felt that the atmosphere in the palace became more oppressive, and therefore became more reluctant to speak.

He still remembers that when the moon was full, the whole palace was celebrating the second prince, and his father hugged the second brother with a smile, and the latter unceremoniously pulled off the beard of the high emperor, waved his arms, and showed off his might.

Wei Shengtong was not angry, he called someone to bring a wooden sword and a book in front of Wei Shengyou, he wanted to see what kind of choice this son who didn't understand anything would make.

Wei Shengyou lay on the ground, patted the floor with his hands, looking very happy, and then held the wooden sword in his arms and sat down on the book.

Wei Shengtong laughed and praised this son for being like himself in front of all the ministers.

Wei Shengzhao watched this scene quietly and lowered his head.

He once heard the maid say that the princes and nobles in the Zhou Dynasty liked to test their children in this way, and it was said that this would discern a person's future ambitions, so that they could cultivate them from an early age.

The little Wei Shengzhao silently scolded "fart" in his heart, because the maid also told him with a smile that His Highness didn't even look at the book and sword at that time, but turned his head and stared intently at the butterfly on the side.

He shoved a mouthful of pastry into his mouth and secretly clenched his fists.

From that day on, the people in the palace seemed to like the new prince more, and Wei Shengyou did not live up to people's expectations of him.

As the two grow up, this second highness is better than his eldest brother in any aspect, and Wei Shengyou's personality is extremely lively and outgoing, although he often causes trouble, but no one will be bored with him because of this, the palace people love him, and the elders evaluate him as a person who does great things.

Wei Shengzhao was overshadowed by his younger brother's aura.

Wei Shengyu is very similar to his father, but there is only one difference.

Wei Shengyou loves beauty, and before the weak crown, he often lingers among the flowers in the green building, and is uninhibited. Emperor Wu of Zhou was extremely dissatisfied with this, and under his constraints, Wei Shengyou reined in a lot, and during the battle for the crown prince, he almost didn't dare to take a step out of the palace gate.

And Wei Shengzhao is the only one who is most similar to his father, he is not lustful.

Even when the first beauty of Tai'an stood in front of him, Wei Shengzhao's heart was not touched much, and the beauty was more like a beautiful work of art to him, which could be viewed from a distance, respected, or blasphemed.

But Wei Shengzhao clearly understood one thing, that is, what Yang Yiyi represented behind him, that was the support of almost the entire Shi clan.

Although Wei Shengzhao also likes his younger brother very much, although Wei Shengzhao knows that Yang Yiyi is closer to his younger brother, he loves power.

There are many power lovers, and Yang Kai is also one of them.

That night, Yang Yiyi secretly ran to find Wei Shengyou, and a subordinate in the Qi Palace's mansion informed Wei Shengzhao of the news, and Wei Shengzhao listened to it, looked at the snow outside the house with a calm face, and didn't say anything.

can see through many things in the palace, but only Yang Yiyi can't see through it, but since the two have become husband and wife, it is natural for them to fall in love with each other, and it is natural to have children.

And Wei Shengzhao also noticed a hint of it, and then he was angry, but he still endured it and didn't say anything, because at this time he had fallen in love with his concubine.

Yang Yiyi fell ill, in addition to looking for a doctor to diagnose and treat her, Wei Shengzhao was also chasing why she was sick, the situation was unusual, she was drugged.

On the last night, Wei Shengzhao finally found out the person who took the drug, which turned out to be Yang Yiyi himself.

Wei Shengzhao entered the health hall decadently, stared blankly at the beauty lying on the bed, and decided to stay quietly by her bedside to accompany her on her last journey.

In the early morning of the second day, when Wei Shengzhao was awakened, he seemed to see the concubine ascending to the immortal, but he still couldn't see through her after all.

After Yang Yiyi's death, the estrangement between Wei Shengzhao and his younger brother deepened, but the court still needs Wei Shengyou, and those ministers will push the sentence "If you are not the king of Qi, you can't call the shots" no matter what, and the ears of those who listen are calloused.

"Greed for money, lust, and love for power, this is a common problem that every man has, and I want to know...... What exactly does Mo Jun want?"

Wei Shengyou brought back a young general, Wei Shengzhao looked at this young man named Mo Jun, and something in his heart seemed to be awakened.

He loves this young man very much, and when he gets along with him, Wei Shengyou has a feeling like a spring breeze, and the haze that has shrouded his heart for thirty years is gradually dispelled, and Wei Shengyou finally raised Mo Jun to the position of general, a very human minister, under one person.

He gave Mo Jun countless rewards, but the general's family was still poor, and he even wanted to marry his daughter, who was known as the "first beauty in the capital", to Mo Jun, but he still couldn't impress the general.

Of course, Wei Shengzhao hoped that his daughter would marry him.

Wei Shengzhao couldn't see through this young man, but he could feel this young man's loyalty to Da Zhou, and that was enough.

In fact, there is one more courtier with such loyalty, but many things can't go back, not only Wei Shengzhao thinks so, but also Wei Shengyou.

Therefore, after the chaos was pacified, Wei Shengzhao was not surprised to hear his younger brother write a request to return to the fiefdom of Qi State, and he felt that the distance between the two might be even farther than this.

That day in the garden, when Wei Shengzhao heard that Wei Shengyou re-entered the capital to seek death, he couldn't describe his mood at that moment for a while, including hatred, excitement, anger, and loss...... Finally, he looked at the moonlight above the palace and wept.

When they were children, they often lay together and counted the stars, and when they counted the shining purple star, their hearts were full of pride and pride, which was the life star of their father.

But that night, there were no stars in sight, only the moon.

Wei Shengzhao found that his heart was more sad.

That's it......

"Your Majesty!"

Mo Jun stepped forward to support Wei Shengzhao's falling body, and pressed his wound with one hand, calling desperately.

Wei Shengzhao's eyes became clearer, and he smiled self-deprecatingly, it turned out that the white was not snow, but the white robe of the general in front of him, this white, still so clear and pure, white and dazzling.

It was only at this moment that the white was stained red, and the snow was stained with blood.

But the general should not have his own blood.

Wei Shengzhao pushed Mo Jun away with all his might, and spit out two words in his mouth: "Run!"

"Your Majesty, hold on to me! The minister will definitely take you out!" Mo Jun swept away the black-clothed dead soldier who rushed up with a sword, and with a stride, he hugged Wei Shengzhao's falling body again and helped him up.

Wei Shengzhao suddenly laughed and said: "I have always thought that the general is a wise person, why do you seem so stupid at this time." ”

Mo Jun was speechless, turned around and picked up Wei Shengzhao, his eyes split.

"I remember that you said that you had no memory of when you were fifteen years old, and that the eunuch used this to say that the general's origin is unknown and that he has a plan. Although I don't think so, I can't bear to see the general so lonely, so I found someone to investigate your life experience, it is very likely that it is the Mo family in Jiangnan, if this is really the case...... I'm sorry for you again. ”

Mo Jun was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't understand why Wei Shengzhao talked about this, and even more puzzled why Wei Shengzhao called himself "I" in front of him.

"I remember that you once asked me why I trusted you so much, and it was because I thought your eyes were clear, and I had never seen ......"

Mo Jun gritted his teeth, and his eyes gradually became a little wet.

"Every time I see you, I think of those sons who are not angry, and then I think how good it would be if the general were my son...... Then there won't be any prince disputes, and my Da Zhou will also ......"

Wei Shengzhao's eyes were full of pity and muttered, and then he tried his best to push Mo Jun away again.

"Your Majesty!"

The majestic body could no longer support it and fell to the ground. Mo Jun turned around, still unrelentingly, and helped Wei Shengzhao up, tears already bursting out of his eyes.

Wei Shengzhao was stunned for a while, and he lost consciousness in pain, but he still smiled with a smile on his face: "If you are really my son, under Jiuquan, I can still show off to the first emperor, my son is much stronger than yours, hahahaha!"

Mo Jun whimpered like a child, sobbing profusely.

"So I must not let you die, this is the king's order, you cannot disobey it. Wei Shengzhao looked at Mo Jun's expression at the moment, paused, and then sneered: "Don't cry, has anyone told you that your crying is ugly?"

Mo Jun kowtowed heavily: "Yes." ”

Wei Shengzhao smiled: "Since you know, don't let me see your crying appearance." ”

Mo Jun took out the demon mask from his arms, slowly put it on his face, and then raised his head.

The cyan color has turned crimson, and the weeping face has turned into a wicked face.

Wei Shengzhao pushed Mo Jun's shoulder, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Go, don't come back." ”

"The monarch and the minister are not defeated, and the monarch and the minister will be restored in the next life. ”

"Mo Jun, I am willing to swear to protect the Great Zhou. ”

Mo Jun kowtowed heavily again, then stood up, stepped out of the snow and unsheathed, and the sea of qi was churning.
