I am the Tao of bad people

Chapter 4 I am the Tao!

As a minister, you can only see the emperor's corpse with your own eyes. If it's not a failure, what is it?
  Yuan Tiangang couldn't refute reality, and he didn't bother to refute it.

But Shen Feng's rhetoric continued.

"You are too loyal. What you are loyal to is every new king of the Tang Dynasty, your so-called son of destiny, not the world of the Tang Dynasty, let alone all the living beings of the Tang Dynasty."

"..."

"It is precisely because you are too loyal that you care too much about the emperor's feelings. You are domineering, but you are not domineering enough!"

"So what in prosperous times, so what in troubled times!"

"An Shi, Huang Chao, and Zhu Wen are just the same thing!"

"Why do you need to warn? Whoever fights back will be killed until there is no one left to kill!"

"In the prosperous age, whoever is greedy will kill whoever is greedy, until no one dares to be greedy!"

"Don't talk about fishing for three hundred years. Even if the Tang Dynasty is decaying now, as long as you, Yuan Tiangang, are willing, even if you carry this rotten Tang Dynasty with one person and one shoulder, you can go on for another three hundred years!"

"You always say that the way of heaven is different from the hegemony, but I believe that the three thousand paths lead to the same destination. In the end, I am the way!"

“The simplest method is often the most effective.”

"It's just that you always want to put your hope in others, especially in an emperor whose country is easy to change and whose nature is hard to change. And this is because your nature is hard to change. This is your biggest failure."

"..."

Yuan Tiangang suddenly raised his head, but was speechless for a long time.

Chen Feng stood up and pointed at the child behind Mirror Heart Demon: "That kid is the substitute you found for Li Xingyun, right?"

"But having said that, being a substitute for the Emperor is not that simple when you think about your identity."

Shen Feng walked towards the fake Li Xingyun step by step. Two children of the same age, compared at this moment, looked like a tiger facing a female cat.

"Boy, let me ask you something."

"You...please say it."

What happened today was too difficult for Fake Li to accept, so much so that he is still submissive even now.

What made him even more unbelievable was what Shen Feng said the next moment.

"Do you want to be emperor?"

The words are not surprising and die endlessly.

Li was a child, but he also knew the weight of the word emperor. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and denied it in a reasonable manner.

"Get up! Don't kneel!"

Shen Feng shouted softly: "The emperor is dead, no one is worthy of your kneeling, and I am not worthy of your kneeling!"

"stand up!"

Shen Feng asked him to stand up, but Fake Li didn't dare to get up.

In his short life, when he was in panic, he could only feel safe by kneeling down to show that he was not a threat.

Chen Feng looked at his figure, was silent for a moment, and sighed: "Forget it. You are not qualified."

The Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, not a human being.

The emperor is a creature that cannot kneel.

A person who is prone to kneeling by nature cannot become the emperor.

Shen Feng turned around and said to Yuan Tiangang: "I'm going to practice. If you have nothing to do, don't bother me."

Yuan Tiangang ignored him.

I was just lectured by my apprentice, and I am annoyed.

The two masters and apprentices were equally aloof.

……

late at night.

Yuan Tiangang sat on the roof, with a jar of aged wine beside him. He looked at the distant starry sky and thought of his apprentice in the afternoon.

Thinking of Shen Feng's words, do you want to be emperor?

I also thought of that sentence, you are too loyal.

In the final analysis, the essence of loyalty is to want to transform the emperor and turn the weak emperor into a wise emperor. However, the situation is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. "I was present at all the ups and downs of the Tang Dynasty. From the rebellion of Mu Tianbao to the Huangchao rebellion, I warned Xizong..."

"No need to warn, whoever fights back will be killed..."

"Zhu Wen is the same raccoon dog, Zhaozong's death..."

His own thoughts and his apprentice's teachings were repeatedly woven into Yuan Tiangang's mind. He couldn't help but mutter to himself: "My lord, are you wrong?"

"wrong!"

"The internal worries of the Tang Dynasty are worse than external ones, like an ant nest and a silkworm embankment! Yan An was poisoned, and the palace guards collapsed!"

"Kill whoever is greedy...kill until no one dares to be greedy..."

"But the emperor still exhausts all the desires of the world and is not satisfied with it!"

"You care too much about the emperor's feelings... You want to be domineering, but you are not domineering enough..."

"But for the past three hundred years, I have done everything for the Tang Dynasty. No matter how much painstaking effort and suffering there was, I have never stopped!"

"Don't talk about fishing for three hundred years. Even if the Tang Dynasty is decaying now, as long as you, Yuan Tiangang, are willing, even if you carry this rotten Tang Dynasty with one person and one shoulder, you can go on for another three hundred years!"

"Borrowing hope on others, especially on an emperor whose country is easy to change and whose nature is hard to change, is because your nature is hard to change... This is your biggest failure!"

"Ha ha……"

"Hahahaha!"

Yuan Tiangang laughed uncontrollably. He rarely lay down on the eaves, looking at the distant sky, as if he was looking at the world of the Tang Dynasty and all the living beings of the Tang Dynasty.

"You little bastard, I'll let you finish all the nice things to say."

"Four diamonds at the beginning shows that he does not play according to common sense. He fails to play and tries to overturn the table, which shows that he does not respect the rules. If he cannot flip the table, he throws stones to disrupt the situation, which shows that he has a flexible moral bottom line. A hero in troubled times, nothing more than that."

"In the end, I am the Tao. And this sentence itself is the most extreme domineering. This kind of Tao is even more powerful than me. At least, I will always be loyal to the Tang Dynasty."

"Li Chunfeng, have you seen it? I have found a good apprentice."

"Come. Respect you. Respect the apprentice. Respect the emperor. Respect the whole Tang Dynasty for these three hundred years."

Say it.

Yuan Tiangang picked up the wine jar next to him and drank it all in one gulp.

……

Yuan Tiangang was making random gestures here, but on the other side of the night, suppressed wails could be heard intermittently.

That was the plastic surgery of Mirror Heart Demon and Fake Li.

The Mirror Heart Demon was using the knife on Fake Li's face while smiling like a villain. The joy on his face seemed to say, no one will come to save you even if your throat is broken...

"Bang bang bang!"

"People are practicing kung fu! You're laughing so hard at night! Are you annoyed?"

The door was violently hammered, and the sound of yelling was heard outside the door. Jing Xinmo shut his mouth knowingly and did not dare to speak back.

Just one word, coward!
  As the footsteps gradually left, Mirror Heart Demon let out a long sigh of relief and carefully held the plastic surgery knife again.

Fake Li endured the severe pain and couldn't help but divert his attention. He asked the Mirror Heart Demon: "Who is this person?"

"He is the handsome apprentice, his name is Shen Feng. You can call him Xiaoshuai."

The Mirror Heart Demon replied and sighed. It was already very difficult to make a living under the commander-in-chief, but with the inexplicable addition of a leader above his head, it became even more difficult.

"Listen to his words carefully, just like listening to the words of the commander-in-chief."

"Well, I see."

"He's gone, let's move on."

"Ah...it hurts...please be gentle..."

Overnight.

One person has become another person's substitute.

He is no longer himself.

But Shen Feng's chess game is still in the future.

He didn't want to stop it, he just felt it was noisy.
