Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 343: People will eventually be trapped by the things they can’t get when they are young.

That night.

Generally speaking, in this era, there is a curfew at night, but this rule is also for other people, for people who have reached a certain height...

Just listen.

The Hall of Enthusiasm.

Zhu Zhanhe was probably the first one to visit the tomb in the evening. Although it was an imperial mausoleum, it was still a cemetery in the final analysis. Just because it was the place where the dead emperor lived, it couldn't be called a tomb, right?

Zhu Zhanhe looked at his father kneeling in front of the memorial tablet and didn't know what to say.

The most difficult thing to face in this world may be this kind of situation where you are obviously relatives, friends or even close relatives, but in the end they come to the opposite side.

Originally, Zhu Zhanhe did not want his father to meet his third uncle, because he knew that his father first fought for the position with the support of his third uncle.

To put it bluntly, I am not very smart. Needless to say, I can't drift, and it is a bit difficult to turn.

Zhu Zhanhe worried that his father would be confused again.

Also, although my third uncle had no good intentions from the beginning, he was still a close sibling after all. Facing this kind of situation that shouldn't be faced would hurt a person's feelings and even his spirit.

However, his father insisted on meeting his younger brother who had once supported him but was now on the opposite side.

After all, he is his youngest brother, and he used to protect him like his eldest brother to the death.

With a gentle sigh, Zhu Zhanhe turned around and took out a volume of imperial edict from his sleeve pocket.

"This is up to you."

Looking at his father standing at the door, Zhu Zhanhe could be said to be in a state of confusion.

"You are no longer the King of Han before. You should know that as long as you want, your son can help you get that position, even if you are reviled by everyone in the world."

"Although I know you know it well, as my son, I still want to remind you."

"Maybe you don't want to hurt others, but you should at least have the ability to hurt others, so that your kindness becomes a choice, not a weak and helpless act."

"I know." After listening to his son's thoughts, Zhu Gaoxu nodded calmly.

This world is never fair, but to a certain extent, this world is fair.

Because when you gain something, you usually lose something.

Looking at his father, Zhu Zhanhe sighed softly and opened his mouth to speak, but he did not say anything until the end. He could only watch his father bypass him and enter the Qin'en Palace.

Originally, multiple-choice questions were easy to answer in No. [-] Middle School because he has already given you the options. No matter whether it is right or wrong, you always have a choice.

But Zhu Zhanhe found that most of the questions he encountered were not multiple-choice questions, but short-answer questions.

Not only are there no answers, sometimes the meaning of the questions is not even clear.

Looking up at the sky, Zhu Zhanhe walked down the steps and sat under Qin En's door.

Looking back at the brightly lit Jin'en Hall, Zhu Zhanhe closed his eyes slightly.

"Want something to drink?"

A voice suddenly sounded, Zhu Zhanhe opened his eyes lightly without any panic.

"Your body cannot drink alcohol."

"I can't drink, but you can drink, brother." Zhu Zhantan sat down and placed a pot of wine in front of his brother.

"Brother, tell me, what choice will dad make?"

"There's nothing to say about that." Zhu Zhanhe shook his head slightly, picked up the jug and popped the cork, and took a shallow sip.

"Dad's choice is dad's choice. It doesn't matter even if he wants to let Third Uncle go, but my choice is my choice."

"Tsk tsk..." Zhu Zhantan looked up at the sky, but the sky today was dark.

Neither the moon nor the stars could be seen.

"Among us brothers, only the eldest brother dares to do this to my father. If it were me and Zhan Qi, even Brother Zhan Qi wouldn't be able to do it."

"Don't think too much." Zhu Zhanhe took another sip of wine and patted his brother on the shoulder.

"Actually, dad is also a sensible person. Just like me back then, I knew that letting my cousin die of a sudden illness was the best outcome, but I kept him."

"Not only because I need time and manpower to make my cousin die of a sudden illness, but also because I actually don't want to do it in my heart."

"Why?" Zhu Zhantan was stunned for a moment.

"I'm not cruel, brother, but you also know, brother, that things have reached this situation and reconciliation is no longer possible. Our lineage and my cousin's lineage have one side after all..."

Zhu Zhantan's lips moved, but in the end he did not say anything.

People are so hypocritical. They obviously know it and understand that it is inevitable, but they keep it secret.

"Human..." Zhu Zhanhe raised his head and looked at the dark sky.

"There is a saying that says that people will be stuck with things they couldn't get when they were young. I thought this was a joke, but I didn't expect..."

"I... am also trapped..."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Zhanhe stood up and looked up at the black sky. In the sky where he could see nothing but black, he seemed to see a familiar face, and also thought of the past before he left Suncheon. That night.

Zhu Zhanhe still remembered that before leaving Shuntian, the dying old man held his hand tightly, half ordering and half praying that he would not be stained with the blood of the Zhu family in the future.

He did it, at least so far.

When he entered Shuntian, Zhu Zhanhe should have dealt with his cousin. Because he had an unfair reputation, it was the best choice to deal with him directly.

This is the same as for people, when you have no choice, even if it is the choice you hate most, you have to hold your nose and accept it.

Just like the old man back then, everyone knew that under his superficial promise of peace and prosperity, he was actually plotting rebellion. However, when the old man disappeared and the old man ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, people could only accept it.

Some things are difficult to say, but easy to say...simple.

A tree without bark will surely die, a person has no face, and the world is invincible.

When you are shameless, all problems become non-issues.

Zhu Zhantan looked at his eldest brother's back, frowning, full of doubts.

He is still young and has not experienced many things, and his health has not been good since childhood. In addition, Zhu Zhanhe used to fight and work hard for the King of Wu's lineage.

Although he knew that his eldest brother would probably eventually take the position that their father longed for, Zhu Zhantan never thought about fighting for it.

Because he knows that without his eldest brother, his family would not be what it is today.

Therefore, he didn't know what his elder brother had gone through and what was bothering him.
