Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!
Chapter 447: My cousin must be a good emperor!
"No, no!" He Xiong responded quickly, "Uncle, don't worry, Yong'an is fine, how could he offend anyone! This rip-off guy made it very clear that he was the one who took advantage of others."
After that, he explained the confession carefully.
It turned out that the centurion had a son who was a gambler. He often went to the outpost to ask his father for money to pay off his debts. The centurion beat and scolded his son, but he never disciplined his son.
A few days ago, when he finally returned home, he happened to see his son being hung up and beaten. He was told that he owed eighty taels of silver. If he didn't pay back, his son would have both of his legs!
Gambling was prohibited in the border guards, so even if he wanted to borrow money from a familiar brother, he couldn't ask for it. When he was frowning, a man in black came to him and said that he would give him one hundred taels of silver as long as he did a favor. Not only did he pay off his son's gambling debt, he was able to start a small business with twenty taels left.
Of course he was happy, but the request made by the man in black was to take advantage of Rakshasa to attack the border pass and cause a big mess. It was best to attract the attention of the people inside the pass and let nearby counties know that the border pass was about to be breached.
He didn't know the other party's intentions, but he knew very well what consequences would be waiting for him if he did this. He refused outright, but his son disappeared that night and the family was in chaos.
He had no choice but to rush back to the outpost overnight to find someone to borrow money. Unfortunately, he was caught by a Rakshasa who was planning a sneak attack.
In order to save his life, he took the initiative to talk about a mountain road he accidentally discovered, which could quietly avoid the defense line of the border guards and enter the pass.
The Rakshasa people believed him and gathered five to six hundred people, and finally they successfully entered the customs.
Originally, he was going to be silenced by the Rakshasa people, but he didn't expect that the man in black who threatened him actually appeared again and rescued him.
The man in black not only let his son go, but also gave him a hundred taels as promised and told him to pay attention to the movements of the border guards. If there was important information, he would definitely not be short of money.
The centurion survived the disaster and swore to take good care of his son. He even hurriedly retired from the army and left the border.
His main purpose of coming here to transport food today was to report that if there were no accidents, he would be able to take the old and young back to his hometown in a month.
After Chen Zhao came back from the grassland, he often went in and out of the military camp. He was familiar with He Xiong and the Sixth Prince. Many soldiers didn't know his identity, but they knew he was a noble man.
The centurion occasionally listened to a few words, and when he left the camp, he saw Chen Zhao bringing an old man and a fat girl. When he went crazy, he came up with a bad idea, deliberately frightened the horse to scare the fat girl, and then got close to him, in case it happened again. Ask for some useful information and exchange for some money, maybe their family can return home in rich clothes instead of being like a lost dog...
Everyone was speechless after hearing this. They really didn't know how to evaluate this centurion.
Call him stupid, but he accurately saw that Mr. Tai and Zhuzhu had unusual identities. Call him smart, but he frightened Zhuzhu by frightening his horse, delaying his trip, and was stopped by He Xiong, killing his own way out!
Chen Zhao frowned and said angrily, "This man is so stupid. For his own selfish purposes, he actually put the Rakshasa devils in prison! Last night, my uncle also mentioned that many people were killed and injured near Tai'an. It's really hateful!"
The sixth prince also nodded and asked He Xiong, "But where did the man in black come from and why did he want to disturb the pass?"
"I didn't ask," He Xiong was also annoyed and replied, "The man in black was masked both times he appeared, and it was also at night. I'm afraid he won't be able to find him easily."
Mr. Tai had been silent, but now he sighed and said, "I can guess the identity of this person."
"How does uncle know?" Everyone was curious, even the general looked over.
The old man, the general and the sixth prince shook hands and started another conversation.
"General, the old man has something to ask you. Now there are Rakshasa attacks outside the border, and there is also a riot in Kyoto. In the face of power and the safety of your family and country, what will you choose?"
The general was stunned for a moment, then responded seriously, "It is natural to choose the safety of the family and the country. If our Zhao family is obsessed with power, how can we guard the border for generations, endure all the hardships, and suffer all the humiliation? It's just that we can't let go of the people of Wei and don't want the country to suffer. The slaughter of foreigners!
"If the border is peaceful and the people live and work in peace and contentment, I don't even have to be a general, and I don't have to have military power!" Mr. Tai didn't speak for a long time, and asked the sixth prince again.
"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, do you... want to be emperor and want that chair in the palace?"
The Sixth Prince straightened his back subconsciously, and his expression became more defensive. Before he could speak, Zhuzhu had already climbed onto his lap, and stuffed the snack into his mouth with a smile.
"Cousin, cousin! This snack is delicious. Cousin and Zhuzhu will eat it together!"
The sixth prince couldn't help it, so he ate the snack with the fat girl's hand. I don't know whether it was the sweetness of the snacks or the warm and soft hands of the fat girl, but the ice defense in his heart slowly melted.
He took a sip of tea, looked at the old man again and said slowly, "Grandpa Tai, I want to be the emperor of the Wei Dynasty! I want to be an eternal emperor who is responsible for the world, makes a living for his subjects, and brings peace to everything! If he were my father The emperor and his brothers are all talented and wise masters who are rare in a century. I am willing to stay in the north, marry a wife and have children, and live a peaceful life.
"But... they're not!
"Instead of letting them harm the great rivers and mountains and chill the hearts of the people of Wei, why can't I take over the country! I believe that I will be a good emperor!"
Zhuzhu had just finished eating a piece of snacks, and her hands were stained with a lot of snack residue. She tried hard to pat her chubby hands, as if applauding enthusiastically.
The old man looked over subconsciously. The fat girl thought that her grandfather blamed her for throwing the snack dregs on her cousin. She quickly nodded vigorously with her little white teeth and followed her cousin's words and patted the rainbow fart.
"Well, well, my cousin is a good emperor!"
The old man stopped breathing for a moment, then started laughing.
"Okay, since Zhuzhu said it, your cousin must be a good emperor!"
Everyone heard this strangely, but the old man did not allow them to think too much, and said, "General, Your Highness, Sixth Prince, don't blame the old man for not knowing etiquette. In fact, the old man came here this time and has something important to say.
"Back then, before the old general passed away, he quietly called me to his side and gave me a treasure map. He told me to hide it well. In the future, maybe this treasure map will be a weapon to change the general trend of the world and protect the peace of the people of Wei.
"For so many years, I have been very scared. I don't know when is the right time to take it out. But now there are powerful enemies outside and hidden dangers inside. I feel..."
He stood up and walked slowly to the center of the ground, knelt down on his knees, and gently held up the dry tobacco pole that had always been beside him with his hand.
"I think the time has come for me to fulfill my promise to the old general!"
The old general’s last words?
A treasure that can change the general trend of the world? !
Everyone's eyes widened in shock, and they didn't react for a while.
The general's lips trembled, and he tried hard again and again before he said, "I always thought that my father was hiding something from me, but I didn't expect that he would ask Uncle Tai to hide it..." (End of Chapter)
