Chapter 344 Failed Black and White Face

"Zulong has many wise ministers and famous generals, but those people are all my ministers and generals. Xiaobai, do you understand what I mean?"

"Your Majesty, you are forcing me to do something!"

"I don't want to do it either, but time is running out."

"We are not mentally prepared at all..."

"The Prime Minister is handling government affairs, and the military is handled by the King of Qi and my three guards."

"Can the Prime Minister be trusted? Can the King of Qi be counted on?"

"If you do a good job, everyone can trust you. If you are strong, everyone can count on you."

"You are talking nonsense!"

"I am telling the truth."

Bai Muye was speechless, looking at the emperor with a calm face. He now believes that the emperor has died a long time ago.

Maybe there are only the emperor's past memories in this body.

Otherwise, how can such a muddled statement be said?

What do you mean we have done a good job and we are strong?

If I have that ability, what else do I need you to say?

If the King of Qi is disobedient, just replace him!

The question is, how can I do that?

"I can still hold on for about half a year." The emperor looked at Bai Muye and said, "You must grow up in these six months."

"Why don't you tell your son these words?" Bai Muye couldn't help asking.

"I will tell him, but not now..." The emperor looked at Bai Muye, "If I tell him now, he will just collapse."

Bai Muye sighed, "But you told me, I also collapsed a little!"

Even if Sanxian Island and King Qi are now sending people to hunt him down like crazy, it is much easier than the emperor's entrustment, right?

"How many people know about this?" Bai Muye asked.

"These guards around me, and my queen." The emperor sighed and looked at Bai Muye sincerely, "Xiaobai, I know that this request is a bit too difficult for you, but you have to think about it this way. Except for some people from your Bai family and Lin family, I have no one to trust."

Bai Muye was silent.

Really?

The entire empire, with a population of trillions, there are not many trustworthy people? Being an emperor to this extent is really a kind of sadness.

"In fact, you don't have to worry too much. Don't treat me as the king of a country. Treat me as an old father who is about to leave but is worried about his children and home. He hopes that there is someone who can help his children to support this family."

The emperor looked at Bai Muye sincerely: "That's all."

Bai Muye smiled sincerely: "This family is a bit big."

"Li Ying doesn't like the throne, his brother doesn't like it, and his younger brother doesn't like it either. But he can't avoid this position." The emperor looked at Bai Muye: "So, can you agree to the last request of a dying father?"

Bai Muye was silent After a long time, he still shook his head: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to agree to you, it's really... your request is too difficult! If Xiao Gu is an ambitious person, then with the help of the group of ministers you left behind, I might try to help him. Even if I can't help him now, I can always help him in the future. But the problem is that he is not interested in that position!"

"This is my business!" The emperor looked at Bai Muye, "As long as you are willing to promise me that one day, when Li Ying comes to power, you have to remember what I said today, that's enough."

Bai Muye looked at the emperor, and the emperor also looked at him.

In anyone's cognition, this conversation today should not have happened.

Especially the emperor, the king of a country, talked so much to Bai Muye like an old man next door, which is even more incredible.

But it happened, right in front of Bai Muye.

For a long time.

Bai Muye nodded and said, "I know what you are here for. You have said so much, but there is one thing you didn't say, right?"

The emperor's eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at Bai Muye: "Which one?"

"You are afraid that I will rebel." Bai Muye said lightly.

Lin Zijin beside him was startled and looked at the emperor in surprise.

The emperor couldn't help laughing, looking at Bai Muye with burning eyes: "Then will you rebel?"

A few black lines appeared on Bai Muye's forehead: "How good is that position for you? Your three stupid sons have no interest in it, but I am interested? Your Majesty, I am grateful for your appreciation. I, Bai Muye, am just an ordinary young man with some talent, and it seems that there is a very powerful family behind me. But from childhood to adulthood, have I ever received any help from that family? I don't even know which way the door opens! If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't know that I have such a powerful ancestor, and I haven't even seen what they look like! If you didn't show up here today, I would be celebrating my master's wedding with a group of friends and your stupid son who doesn't want to be the emperor!"

The emperor smiled and said, "So, no matter what day it is, you won't be?"

"I'm not interested!" Bai Muye said.

"Then, can you swear?" The emperor looked at him, "Blood oath."

Bai Muye frowned slightly and looked at the emperor: "If I don't swear, will I not be able to leave this room today?"

Lin Zijin's face suddenly turned cold. From beginning to end, she had been listening quietly, but now, a trace of anger appeared in her eyes.

"Old emperor, listen carefully!"

Lin Zijin stood up directly and looked down at the emperor sitting opposite him, "We are friends with your son, not because he is a prince. When we knew him, he was just a genius archer, Xiao Gu. But now that we know he is a prince, we will not alienate him because of this. We are friends with this person, not this identity! Whether in the black domain or in reality, whether he is the emperor or not, we are friends. We will help him if he needs it. But all this has nothing to do with you!"

"Today is the day when my brother and I are celebrating the great day of our respective masters. As the king of a country, we are very grateful and happy that you can appear here and send blessings to him. But you pulled us both and nagging and said After all this time, the true colors are finally exposed. Why do you want us to swear not to rebel? If you don't tell us, we won't even think about it!"

The emperor looked at Lin Zijin who was angry quietly, but he didn't get angry. He smiled and said, "Girl, some things are not a question of whether you have thought about them now, just like... when I was your age, I actually refused the throne. Don't think that only my three sons refused the throne. In fact, I also refused it back then."

"But in the end, didn't you fight with the King of Qi to your heart's content? You pulled people to stand in line, and suppressed them if they didn't stand... It's as if you didn't do these things! Who are you telling those high-sounding words to?"

The angry Lin Zijin didn't care about that, and dared to say anything.

It's also fortunate that there is no fourth person in this room, otherwise he would be scared to death.

"I did it. When I was young, I always did some stupid things. What you said is what I will regret until I die." The emperor looked at Lin Zijin, "So, you, a sharp-tongued little girl, don't treat me like a dead man, okay?"

Lin Zijin: "..."

Is there any more cruel self-deprecation than this?

"You are not a good emperor, but you can be killed by others. It's really shameful. What's the point of this broken position?" Lin Zijin said sarcastically.

Bai Muye was silent for a moment: "Who harmed whom, Your Majesty?"

"A lot..." The emperor sighed and shook his head slightly, "Prince Lu, Prince Chu, Prince Huai, some ministers in the court... even my few useless sons were involved, but it doesn't matter, they won't live long."

He looked at Bai Muye: "Prince Chu and Prince Huai, as well as my few useless sons, have been cleared out. But Prince Lu... is a bit troublesome, but it doesn't matter, I will solve these problems. So, Xiaobai, can you swear?"

Bai Muye sat there, looking at the emperor calmly: "Sorry, I can't."

"Why? Aren't you afraid that if I give an order, a few god-level guards will come in and kill you? Your emperor-level ancestor can't get here at this time, and I, a dead man, won't care so much." The emperor looked at Bai Muye and said.

"Then aren't you afraid that he will destroy your royal family in anger?" Lin Zijin asked coldly.

"Haha, she will grind me to dust, but she can't really destroy the Li royal family."

"You are an emperor with only half a year left. If you really want to kill me, why did you come across the galaxy in person? There is no need to tell me so much."

"That's because I want to see you swear in person." The emperor said.

"My bones are not so hard that I won't be afraid of anyone, but I really don't want to swear this." Bai Muye looked at the emperor, "If one day the world is in chaos, and I accidentally become the savior, then I may not refuse!"

"You are very presumptuous." The emperor's eyes, which have always been gentle and calm, finally flashed a hint of coldness.

Bai Muye looked at the emperor calmly: "That's not desire, that's responsibility."

The emperor also looked at Bai Muye coldly.

As the king of a country, he controls the life and death of trillions of people. No matter how much he dresses himself up as a kind old man next door, he is not, and he will never be.

"I'm telling the truth." Bai Muye said.

"Do you know that your words are enough to make me want to kill you?"

The emperor said calmly, glancing at Lin Zijin who was holding a door knife.

"Dog emperor, do you believe it or not? If you say another word, I will chop you off with one knife?"

Lin Zijin didn't care how many gods there were outside. She only knew that no one could hurt her brother!

Whoever dared to do this, she would fight to the death!

"Girl, put the knife back." Bai Muye glanced at Lin Zijin.

"No!" Lin Zijin refused straightforwardly. She looked at Bai Muye stubbornly, "I think the dog emperor wanted to kill you today, brother, can't you see it? It must be that damn national teacher who talked nonsense about brother's good fortune, and then I don't know what other ugly words he said. What about assisting the new emperor? Do we need to help? There are many famous ministers and generals in the imperial court, and there are countless loyal ministers and good generals. Even if Xiao Gu was forced to that position, even if he was a salted fish who didn't attend court for decades, the empire would not collapse! Therefore, the dog emperor came here today just to test your attitude. In fact, no matter what you say, whether you agree or not, the dog emperor will not give up his Killing intention. He came here in person just to see you die with his own eyes! But he has been talking nonsense for so long, repeating those meaningless things over and over again, in fact, he is also waiting! Waiting for the ancestor of my brother's family to come! "

Lin Zijin said, turning to the emperor coldly: "Dog emperor, am I right or wrong?"

The emperor smiled bitterly and said: "I am already dead, and I have to be scolded by a little girl like you as a dog emperor, but it doesn't matter. When the third brother was in front of you, you also scolded me as a dog emperor. I won't be on the same level with you, a little girl."

He looked at Bai Muye and his voice became cold: "Bai Muye, are you sure, you don't swear, right?"

Just then, a noisy voice suddenly came from outside.

"Let me in!"

"Why are you blocking here?"

"Get out!"

Then, the door of the villa was pushed open.

Gu Yingjun's slightly flushed face appeared there. He took a look at the situation in the room and then breathed a sigh of relief.

She strode to the emperor, looked into his eyes, and said angrily: "Father, you play the villain and I play the hero, is it interesting?"

The emperor was slightly startled, then frowned: "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Gu said angrily: "How long do you want to hide it from me? You don't want me to come in, and there are a bunch of gods standing at the door, how can I come in?"

The emperor suddenly laughed: "So, father's method... is a bit cheap, and my son laughed at it, right?"

Xiao Gu knelt in front of the emperor with a plop and cried: "Father, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Gu just has no interest in the throne, not an unfilial son.

I just followed a group of people back lively, and the more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong.

What did the father want to say by sending everyone away and leaving Xiao Bai and Zi Jin alone?

At this time, a guard beside the emperor found him and secretly gave him something.

After reading it, Xiao Gu was a little confused.

It was a letter left by his father.

The emperor hoped that he could take the throne!

He was given a list of trustworthy people in the court.

At the same time, the person the emperor valued most was Xiao Bai!

But he still had a little doubt about this person who was deduced by the national teacher with his life.

The future was too vague.

The key was that his surname was Bai.

So the emperor hoped that Xiao Gu could cooperate with him to play a play.

The emperor played the villain and deliberately suppressed Xiao Bai with the dignity of an emperor. This strength was definitely enough.

Then let Xiao Gu "coincidentally" break through all this and save Xiao Bai.

At that time, Bai Muye, a young man who had no ambitions, would naturally be grateful to Xiao Gu.

Unfortunately, the emperor had a good idea, but Xiao Gu was not a person who played by the rules. He changed the script without hesitation.

The emperor was a little confused by the change.

Looking at the kneeling Xiao Gu in front of him, he angrily said, "Do you still have the consciousness of a prince?"

Xiao Gu cried, "I don't want to be a prince, I just want a healthy father."

Although he still didn't know what happened to his father, it was clear that he was entrusting his son to him, and he didn't even dare to think deeply.

The emperor stood up, came to Xiao Gu, raised his hand and slapped him hard.

People are dead and still so busy, crossing the endless galaxy to perform a play here, is it easy?

But it was all ruined by this bastard son's words.

Even if he didn't have only half a year left to live, he would be pissed to death by this bastard.

"Father, you just want me to take the throne, you have nothing to do, right?"

Gu Yingjun was slapped by the emperor, but he seemed not to notice it, and looked at the emperor crying.

The dog emperor is so boring!

Lin Zijin sighed, put away the door-like big knife with a dull look, and glanced at Bai Muye.

Bai Muye stood up, took Lin Zijin's hand, and walked out of Fang Qing's house.

The several god-level beings standing at the door seemed to have not seen Bai Muye, and let the two of them walk out.

When they came outside, they took a deep breath.

They looked up at the blue sky above their heads, looked at each other, and walked silently towards the direction of the old Song family.

In Fang Qing's villa.

The emperor looked up to the sky and sighed: "Is this fate?"

"My Li royal ancestor had an agreement with the Bai and Lin ancestors in the past. If one day, the descendants of the Li royal family are not good, the outstanding children of the Bai and Lin families can replace them... But the ancestors of the Bai and Lin families have expressed their willingness to support my Li family forever."

"By my generation, hidden dangers have emerged. Some people from the Bai and Lin families have begun to be dissatisfied with the status quo and violated the promise made by their ancestors - to always be loyal to the royal family and never stand on the side of the prince."

"Of course, I am also wrong in this matter. In the past, I also tried to win them over in order to ascend to the throne. Unfortunately, those who the King of Qi won over were all successful. And those I won over all rejected me. I was furious about this and did do some wrong things because of it. But after ascending to the throne for many years, I looked at this matter again and found that those who did not stand on the side of the princes were the ones who ... are the most loyal people. They still follow the ancestral teachings, and they never wavered even when I promised them great benefits. "

"I always feel that I owe those people something, but I also always think that there is still time... Unfortunately, God played a huge joke on me!"

He looked at Gu Yingjun who was still kneeling there: "Child, your father is dead, he died half a year ago!"

Gu Yingjun suddenly raised his head and stared at the emperor blankly, his lips trembling, his body trembling slightly: "No, no, father, you lied to me, this is not true..."

"This is true!"

The emperor's eyes softened, gently touched Gu Yingjun's head, and stretched out a hand, "You get up."

Gu Yingjun stood up blankly, his mind was blank.

The emperor took his hand, sat on the sofa, and chuckled: "Look, this world is so real and so vivid. I have not traveled for many years except for the years when I was a prince. I have traveled everywhere. I regretted this until I died, and now... I have fulfilled my wish."

Gu Yingjun couldn't hold it back anymore and hugged the emperor and cried loudly.

In his memory, except for when he dared to hug his father so unscrupulously when he was a child, he hadn't hugged his father for many years.

The emperor was stunned and gently put his hand on his son's back: "You have grown up."

"No, I haven't grown up, and you are still young... you..."

Gu Yingjun burst into tears and couldn't accept this reality at all.

"Haha, everyone will die eventually. Even the brilliant ancient civilization, with so many peerless geniuses, were not eventually buried in this long river of time? Compared with them, what am I?"

The emperor said lightly, gently pushed his son away, looked at the crying face, and said seriously again: "You have grown up, you must learn to face this treacherous world alone, and learn to take on things that should be borne by you. Your elder brother, even if he has ambition, does not have the ability, fortunately he has no ambition. Your younger brother looks weak, but he is actually a smart man, but he is not suitable for Sitting on the throne together, you can use him in the future. Among the three of you brothers, only you are the most suitable. "

"Just now I forced Xiaobai to swear, half true and half false."

"If he swore, father would be more assured."

"But he refused to swear, father is still a little unsure."

"Lin Zijin is right, your father is a dog emperor, dark-minded, too suspicious."

Gu Yingjun cried and shook his head: "It's not like that, you are the best father in my heart! But Xiaobai will not do what you worry about, the child Believe him. "

The emperor looked at him and said, "I am not a good father, but I... consider myself a good emperor. This young man Bai Muye is really a young man who is really scary. Nothing he did was simple. Otherwise, even if he is a man with great luck as the national teacher said, if he did not have the strength, wisdom, courage and decisiveness to match, he would have died countless times. Such a person, son, may become your greatest help in the future, but it is also possible that... he will become a knife that will fall on your head at any time. "

Gu Yingjun wiped a Wiping the tears from his face, he whispered: "No, father, I believe in him!"

"As a prince, as a prince, you can trust others, you can trust many people. But as an emperor, you can't trust anyone in your bones! Son, do you know that it is because of your father's trust that he has fallen to this point today!"

The emperor looked at him and said lightly: "So, I will leave a force that you don't know. When one day he really does something rebellious, that force will... destroy him at all costs!"

"Father, you..."

"But I hope that day will never come!"
