Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 137 I am not afraid of the king

The atmosphere was suddenly a little cold and a little awkward.

The joke is not funny at all.

Xue Shou didn't react for a while, but when he did, he burst out laughing, with a hint of pity mixed into his smile.

That was pity for Du Ruhui's arrogance, pity for the ignorant and weak.

"Keming, I know that the Jingzhao Du family is also a family, but can you represent the Du family? Even if you can represent it, can you help the king defeat the Shandong family and the Guanlong family! You are simply dreaming, stupid!"

Judging from the strength on paper, the Jingzhao Du family is not enough to kill the Guanlong family.Starting from reality, the Jingzhao Du family is not enough to kill the Guanlong family.Therefore, it is no wonder that Xue Shou despises the Jingzhao Du family so much.

Du Ruhui was not angry at Xue Shou's ridicule, but said calmly: "Brother Xue, if you don't do some things, you will never know the result. Although the crown prince and King Qin have the support of the Shandong family and the Guanlong family, they are not absolute. You can succeed. Your Majesty does not have their support now, but it does not mean that you will not be able to get their support in the future. You are a smart person, you should know that this world is not only black and white. .”

Hearing this, Xue Shou smiled and said: "I admit, what you said is indeed a bit reasonable, as long as the crown prince does not ascend the throne for a day, King Qin, King Qi, King Chu, and even the newly born princes in the palace will all have a chance. But Keming, why are you so confident that you can help the king enter the East Palace and even Yuji Tianxia under such circumstances?"

"The name of the crown prince has been determined early, and there is support from the Shandong family behind him. The king of Qin has made extraordinary military exploits, and he is also a heir, and he has the help of Guan Long. How can the king fight against them?"

"Well said!" Du Ruhui smiled and said, "If you think so, other people should also think that the king has no chance."

Hearing this, Xue took a pause and looked at him in surprise.

"Keming, what do you mean?"

Du Ruhui said: "What you just said is very good. The crown prince has a family from Shandong, and King Guanlong of Qin supports him. They are fighting with each other. What does it have to do with your majesty?"

"You want to reap the benefits of being a fisherman?"

"No, just watching with cold eyes."

Xue Shou was silent for a while, then shook his head, "I'm still not optimistic."

Du Ruhui was not surprised by his attitude, but just stepped forward and said in a low voice: "In the past, King Qin Xiaowen had more than [-] sons, and King Zhuang Xiang was ordinary, so he could also ascend to the throne. Brother Xue, life is like a If you can follow the example of Marquis Wenxin, you will be able to glorify your ancestors in the future. The Xue family in Hedong and the Du family in Jingzhao, if you want to stand shoulder to shoulder with the five surnames and seven surnames one day, this is the fastest shortcut. You and I are neither descendants nor elders in the clan. You can only sacrifice yourself to take it for yourself. You know history, so you should know that the world is in chaos, and it is the time when heroes emerge. We have an opportunity before us, if we don’t seize it, we can only sit and watch other people’s night banquets in the future, and we will struggle in prison.”

"Of course, if you don't have big ambitions, then just treat it as Du's nonsense and don't take it to heart. But Brother Xue, think about the Eight Pillars of the Yuan and Wei Dynasties. If they didn't sacrifice their own safety, how could they have today's close relationship?" Long Zhisheng?"

"Jingzhao Du's family is considered by others to be a wealthy family, but it is extremely weak in front of the Guanlong family. The Xue family in Hedong is a famous family. But when it comes to Bingzhou, the world only knows Wang Peier's family. Brother Xue, you Don’t you want to be famous in history? Don’t you want to find a family for your descendants? Don’t you want to make the Hedong Xue family a prominent family?”

After Xue listened, he was silent for a while, and said: "I think, I also understand that since ancient times, the merit of Conglong is the greatest, but your idea is too crazy. The king has no advantage at all in front of the crown prince and the king of Qin."

"Your Majesty is right. The advantages are accumulated little by little." Du Ruhui followed the temptation, "The Crown Prince is guarding against King Qin, not Your Majesty. We can plan slowly. And, Brother Xue, if we push Your Majesty to the top What will happen to you and me in that position?"

Plop plop!
Xue Shou's heart was beating violently, if he really helped the king of Chu ascend to the throne, be rich and prosperous, honor his ancestors and rule the world
He suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will leak the news?"

Du Ruhui shook his head.

"Why?" Xue Shou asked.

Du Ruhui said: "Brother Xue, you just analyzed that the king has no chance to win the championship, so if you say it, who will believe it? At most, people will say that you are trying to provoke the royal brothers."

Hearing this, Xue Shou was suddenly dumbfounded.This is true. In the eyes of others, King Chu has no chance to reach the summit.

Immediately afterwards, Du Ruhui said again: "Actually, brother Xue, you also wanted to fight with the king, but you didn't realize it."

"Impossible?" Xue Shou shook his head and denied, "I never thought of that."

"In that case, why did you stay in the Prince Chu's mansion instead of going to the East Palace? Right now, Wang Gui is a popular person next to the prince. You are all from Bingzhou. Following the prince's future is much better than following the king."

Xue Shou was speechless for a moment.

Yes, why doesn't he go to the East Palace?

He thought about it carefully, and found that Du Ruhui was not wrong.Because he always thought that the King of Chu was excellent, and he could go better with the King of Chu.

But in the end, will he be the minister of the king of Chu, or the minister of the new king?

He asked himself this question in his heart, and the answer he got was King Chu.

Li Zhiyun is not only his fellow apprentice, he has a deep friendship, he treats others generously, and never acts unwisely.

Moreover, Li Zhiyun was the first to reuse him.

Since the beginning of Hedong Poqu Tutong, he has always attached great importance to Thaksin.

Immediately afterwards, Du Ruhui said again, "Brother Xue, after you knew the truth, you didn't back down, but you wanted to try your best to dissuade the king. This shows that you care more about the king's safety in your heart. You don't know your true thoughts, but just think that the prince Insurmountable with the King of Qin. I said, right."

The reason why Du Ruhui dared to tell Xue Shou these things was because of these considerations.If Xue Shou was really a villain, he would have already left King Chu and moved to the East Palace.

But he didn't, he still had King Chu in his heart.

Under Du Ruhui's words, Xue Shou's excited mood gradually stabilized, and he asked in a low voice: "How sure are you of success?"

"now?"

"Correct."

"Not one percent."

"You!" Xue Shou immediately wanted to scold her.

kidding me?

Du Ruhui said: "I'm just telling the truth, this time the Yunyang Army was almost taken away, let the king and I see clearly that we basically don't have any allies and political power in the court, so we are not sure now."

Then what you said is the same as the truth, so passion doesn't matter.

"You're taking a big gamble."

Du Ruhui smiled, and said: "Lu Buwei bet on a stranger, Xiao He and Zhang Liang bet on Han Gaozu, Zhuge Wuhou bet on Liu Xuande, which one of them is not a big gamble."

"Do you know what will happen if we lose?" Xue Shou asked.

"It's nothing more than death." Du Ruhui didn't care about these things, he followed closely: "But if we win, you know what we will get. In fact, if you think about it, Fang Xuanling and Yu Yu who are with King Qin Zhining, Changsun Wuji and others are also gambling. To a certain extent, although King Qin is a direct descendant, the title of crown prince has already been decided, unless the prince dies suddenly, how can King Qin take the position?"

"Taking a step back, if one day the crown prince was in trouble, how could the King of Qi be willing to let the King of Qin win the throne? Brother Xue, the king's situation is not as bad as you think."

After the words fell, Xue Shou fell into silence.

"If I don't agree, will the king kill me?"

"No, the king has always regarded you as a brother, a good teacher and a helpful friend. If you really don't want to help the king, the king will let you go."

"I don't believe it." Xue Shou said.

Du Ruhui said: "I don't believe it either."

Hearing this, Xue Shou was stunned for a moment, then exchanged a glance with Du Ruhui, the two laughed loudly.

After laughing, Xue Shou licked his chapped lips.

"Keming, you are right. The crown prince and the king of Qin are already fighting. It's not like the king has no chance."

"Have you considered?"

"Yeah." Xue Shou said seriously: "Since Your Majesty has a heart, why should I be afraid?"

"it is good!"

Du Ruhui grabbed his hand and held it tightly.
