Chapter 284 The throne has become a hot potato
"what about you?"

Emperor Wuhou looked at Xiao Zhe and Xiao Heng again.

The two of them cupped their hands and answered politely: "Report to the Emperor Father, what I saw is the same as that of the Fifth Emperor's younger brother."

"However, Dong Dutong made such an announcement tonight, which shows that he also has his own plans. It is already worrying that the civil servants have meticulous work. If the generals also have their own ideas, it can only show that the inside of Da Chu is not as good as the outside. The country is peaceful and the people are safe." Xiao Zhe added calmly.

"It's good that you know." Emperor Wuhou was finally relieved: "The court is not as easy to control as imagined, and a little carelessness will cause eternal hatred.

Do you know why I have to ask you so severely?How can you rule the world if you don't learn all the skills.

To put it bluntly, if I had been poisoned and died suddenly, Da Chu would have collapsed immediately.None of the three of you can carry the big Chu Jiangshan. "

As soon as Emperor Wuhou finished speaking, Xiao Zhe and Xiao Heng lowered their heads guiltyly at the same time, and even Xiao Jiuxi was full of emotion.

Indeed, my father was right. After his death in his previous life, Dachu had indeed fallen into a long period of civil strife.

Seeing the three sons bowing their heads at the same time, Emperor Wuhou couldn't help feeling: "I don't have much time. Even if I can recover, how many years will I have to live? Sooner or later, this country will be handed over to you. I can do it." What I want is to find out all those people who want to mess up my Xiao family in my lifetime. As for you..."

"Father, my son has no intention of taking the throne. He just wants to guard the gap in Taihe Prefecture and block the only way for Eastern Zhao to invade!"

It's not surprising that Xiao Jiuxi opened his mouth. This guy likes to express his wish to not love Jiangshan in every possible way.

What surprised Emperor Wuhou was that it was Xiao Zhe who spoke almost at the same time as Xiao Jiuxi.

Even Xiao Zhe was even more exaggerated than Xiao Jiuxi. He lifted his robe, knelt down on the ground, and said solemnly: "Father, my son, please go to guard the border. From then on, I will take the army tent as my home and guard the border of Great Chu."

"!" Xiao Jiuxi stared at Xiao Zhe in astonishment.

When did the third brother know how to follow the flames?
Although I didn't hear what he said clearly, the way he knelt down showed that he was much more powerful than me.

Without saying a word, he lifted his robe and knelt down.

Xiao Heng was half a beat too late, but he has come to his senses. One of these two is going to guard the border, and the other is going to return to the fief. What should he do?He can be a virtuous king, but not an emperor.

Xiao Heng knelt down to make up for the situation: "Father, my son and I also request..."

Before he finished speaking, Emperor Wuhou spoke.

"Have you been poisoned by Lao Wu? Are you also following him in making trouble? Isn't it because the Chu country is not chaotic enough?"

"Father, my son is serious." Xiao Zhe said sincerely: "Before, my son only thought that I was unparalleled in the world, and I was the only one in this world. But during this time, my son has experienced a lot and thought a lot. My son The minister suddenly realized that there are people beyond the people and there is a sky beyond the sky. Just as the father said, the son and minister's ability is not enough to govern Shanhuzhou, let alone take on the great responsibility of the master of the world.

All I want is to continue training in the army, to be the sharpest sword in Chu, and to wipe out all uncertainties for Chu. As for the rest... I don't think about it anymore. "

What Xiao Zong said was from the bottom of his heart, and it was what he wanted to say most.

He had been looking for an opportunity originally, but now that he finally found it, he couldn't miss it.

Emperor Wuhou looked at him in surprise: "You... are you sincere?"

"Sincerely." Xiao Zhe nodded.

"Brother..."

Xiao Jiuxi was also very surprised. After all, among the three present, Xiao Zhe had the strongest intention for the throne. Otherwise, why did Xiao Zhe bully him for more than 20 years?
Now it is surprising to hear that Xiao Zhe is going to the military camp at his own invitation, and his tone of voice means that he will spend the rest of his life in the military camp.

"Brother Huang, don't be impulsive. Among the three of us, you have the courage and ability to inherit the father's title. We are willing to assist you and solve your problems." Xiao Heng persuaded him sincerely.

"Yes, Brother Four is right, we will assist Brother Huang." Xiao Jiuxi also nodded.

"You don't need to say more. Both of you are better at governing the country than me. After all, I am only suitable for being in the military tent. I am free and easy without any twists and turns." Xiao Zhi answered sincerely.

"Okay, you guys don't need to push me around here, what is this place? Are you buying vegetables in the vegetable market?"

One word from Emperor Wuhou made the three brothers silent.

They finally realized that this is not the mansion but the Qitai Hall, and what they were discussing was not about not eating chicken legs, but about not taking the throne.

No matter which one you look at, they are out of line.

The three of them looked at Emperor Wuhou tremblingly, with guilt and panic in their eyes.

Emperor Wuhou snorted coldly: "Is my throne a hot potato? Believe it or not, I can pick your heads off with your reaction!"

"..." The three were silent.

Emperor Wuhou shook his head: "Forget it, I really can't control you guys anymore, do what you like."

"Father, I'll pack up and leave tomorrow." Xiao Jiuxi was in a hurry.

There is no way, just now at the banquet, the father said to ask the ministers to count the list of noble daughters, what if he really assigns a princess to him.

He was indeed here to court the princess on this trip, but he was courting no one else but Li Yewu.

He doesn't want anyone but Li Yewu.

Therefore, before choosing a noble girl, he had to pack his bags and leave this place of right and wrong.

"What's the rush?" Emperor Wuhou seemed to have seen through his plot: "You still have tasks to complete."

"?" Xiao Jiuxi was at a loss, what mission did he have?

"Your Third Emperor brother has gone to guard the border. Can't you handle the affairs of Shanhu Prefecture for him?"

Xiao Zhe was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly bowed his head and kowtowed: "Thank you, Father, for your success."

"!" Xiao Jiuxi's face was full of black lines, and she almost forgot about this.

"If you can resolve the matter in Shanhu Prefecture smoothly, I can grant you a request."

"!" Xiao Jiuxi's eyes ignited with hope again when he heard this: "Can I ask for anything?"

Emperor Wuhou nodded: "The premise is that if there is time, the election of the noble girl will be held in half a year, and you can handle it yourself."

The father and son didn't say anything, but the meaning was already obvious.

If Xiao Jiuxi can complete the task before selecting the noble girl, he will have a chance to make Li Yewu a regular, if not, then there is no other way.

Xiao Jiuxi thought about it, gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.

"My son is leaving tomorrow! Be sure to finish it within a month!"

He readily agreed.

Xiao Zong's face was full of worry. The nobles of Shanhu State were not ordinary nobles, and they were not easy to deal with.

Xiao Jiuxi gave him a reassuring expression.

At this time, the future of the two of them was resolved at once, only Xiao Heng was still worried. He didn't have time to finish his words just now, and his father interrupted him.

What now?
Should he continue to express to his father that he only wants to be a loyal minister?
