Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 459: Not Envy Is Mediocre

"Is it all because of me?"

Emperor Qianwu's eyes widened with confusion on his face.

"That's right! It's all because of you!"

Li Chengye completely collapsed emotionally and shouted hysterically.

"Father, I am the legitimate prince, and the throne should have been mine!"

"Since ancient times, there has been an orderly arrangement of elders and younger ones. Why can Li Changfeng replace his son?!"

"Father, please don't forget that he is a bastard with the blood of the previous dynasty, while my son has the purest blood of the Li family!"

"Father, when you named your son Chengye, wasn't it because you wanted your son to inherit your great cause?!"

"When I was young, did you say that you would hand over your work to me in the future?!"

"I have been working hard to become a qualified prince these years. You have always been optimistic about me, and I have not let you down. I am much better than Li Shou, Li Ji and others!"

"But!"

Having said this, Li Chengye paused and roared at Emperor Qianwu.

"But! Everything has changed since that little bastard returned to Beijing!"

"It was you who shattered Erchen's dream. Erchen had no choice but to take risks and kill him!"

In the end, Li Chengye said with regret on his face: "What a pity, what a pity, he didn't die!"

Emperor Qianwu looked at Li Chengye in disbelief. It seemed that he could not bear such a blow. He stepped back a few steps, his face was full of pain, and the momentum of a generation of heroes was gone.

He raised his hand and pointed at Li Chengye tremblingly.

"Chengye...you...you..."

That's right.

Li Chengye was his first child. When he became a father at the beginning of the year, he was very excited and took the name Chengye. He really hoped that Li Chengye would inherit the throne in the future, and he also loved Li Chengye very much.

He even trained and urged Li Chengye according to the standards of an emperor.

However, as the Qian Dynasty established the world and his heirs increased, Emperor Qianwu realized that this method of orderly passing on the eldest son to the eldest son was unreasonable, and his idea was shaken.

Later, Li Shou, Li Ji and others also showed great talents. Li Chengye's lack of enterprising spirit and deep mind, and his flaw of being timid in doing things were gradually exposed.

In his opinion, this was not a qualified emperor.

Therefore, he made the decision that the princes must be decentralized when they reach adulthood. The purpose is to hope that the princes can be promoted through experience and select the best princes to inherit the throne.

This was something that was obvious, and many princes also started to compete in a restrained manner. Everything was in his plan.

He thought that all the princes could understand his painstaking efforts, especially the eldest Li Chengye, who would definitely understand his painstaking efforts for a prosperous future.

But I never thought it would be like this.

At this time, he realized how rare it was that Li Changfeng had no interest in the throne.

There was Li Shou before, Li Ji after, and now Li Chengye. They all made unforgivable mistakes for the sake of the throne.

At this time, Emperor Qianwu really felt that he was alone.

Perhaps Li Changfeng realized this and was unwilling to be the emperor.

Li Chengye, who was willing to go all out, no longer had any respect for Emperor Qianwu, and said with a crazy smile: "What? Father, do you want to kill me? It doesn't matter, my dream has been shattered, my heart is dead, whatever! " Emperor Qianwu covered his heart, his body shook, his face pale and full of pain.

Gao Dali quickly supported him and said with a worried look on his face: "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body!"

Emperor Qianwu pointed at Li Chengye's hand and trembled slightly: "You traitor! You traitor! You only have the throne in your heart, but do you have great responsibilities? Do you have the common people of the world? As long as you can build guns, cannons, steam trains, conquer the north and south, open up frontiers and expand the territory, With your abilities, why should I pass on the throne to you? In these years, apart from being able to engage in some conspiracy and calculation, have you ever made any achievements? How can you compare with Li Changfeng? What qualifications do you have to compare with Li Changfeng? "

Facing Emperor Qianwu's successive questions, Li Chengye opened his mouth again and again, but could not utter a word to refute. In the end, he could only grit his teeth and said: "This prince has pure blood, unlike Li Changfeng who is a bastard with the blood of the previous dynasty!"

"Mongrel?"

Emperor Qianwu said with a disappointed look on his face: "Besides talking about your useless bloodline, what else do you have? Are you just talking about it? You have disappointed me so much. You are not as good as Li Shou and Li Ji!"

Li Chengye snorted coldly, looking dissatisfied.

Emperor Qianwu took a deep breath and gradually regained his composure. He straightened his waist and naturally exuded the imperial aura.

He said in an indifferent tone: "I, the Li family, were not born into the royal family. I conquered the world. Wasn't it an ordinary person before? Speaking of which, Li Changfeng carries the blood of the previous royal family. His blood is more noble than yours!"

Li Chengye opened his mouth, speechless.

Emperor Qianwu continued coldly: "As the legitimate prince of Daqian, you are narrow-minded and bring shame on me! As my son, you have no respect for your elders, which disappoints me so much! As Li Changfeng's eldest brother, you are a brother You are not worthy of being his brother if you kill each other!"

At this time, Li Chengye had regained his composure and knew that he had made a huge mistake. He smiled bitterly and said, "So, father, do you plan to kill your son?"

"The mistake you made deserves to be executed!"

Hearing this, Li Chengye's face instantly turned pale.

Fortunately, Emperor Qianwu's next words made him sigh in relief.

"But, you are my son after all. If you kill me, I will feel bad, and your mother will not be able to bear it. The most important thing is, why should I kill you? Let everyone in the world know that the Li royal family has such a scum like you? Li Where do you want to put the face of the royal family?"

After saying that, Emperor Qianwu shook his sleeves fiercely, turned around and returned to the dragon throne, and said with an expressionless tone: "Gao Dali!"

"The old slave is here!"

"According to my will, the eldest prince Li Chengye is seriously ill and has been recuperating in the mansion since then and cannot go out. Without my will, no one is allowed to visit and he will not be allowed to leave the mansion for the rest of his life!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chengye's face instantly turned pale and his heart was ashen.

This is life-long house arrest!
Don't ever think about it again in this life, he is finished.

If I had known this would be the result, why take the risk in the first place?
Li Chengye was filled with regret.

"Father..."

He just opened his mouth to plead for mercy, but Emperor Qianwu turned his head and looked to one side, waving his hands impatiently: "Get out of here while I haven't changed yet. Don't call me Father Emperor in the future. I'm not as incompetent as you." son!"

Li Chengye wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Gao Dali: "Your Highness, please!"

On the surface, Gao Dali didn't express anything, but he was actually a little happy in his heart. He dared to play tricks on Li Changfeng. Such a fate would be considered a light one.

Li Chengye knew that there was no point in talking anymore at this point, so he got up and left in despair.

Emperor Qianwu sighed.

"What crime did I do!"

Gao Dali didn't know how to comfort him. He thought over and over again and said cautiously: "Not being envied by others means mediocrity. I can only say that His Highness the Ninth Prince is too outstanding. Your Majesty, please don't be angry. It's not worth it to make the dragon body angry." .”
