Chapter 2833 Betting
...
However, after arriving at the palace and seeing the scenes and people inside, Zhu Helai couldn't help but be stunned.
After working for so long, this was the first time he saw so many old people here.
If the old man could enter this place, he must not be an ordinary person. After looking up at Vasudeva I and observing his posture and behavior, Zhu Helai knew that today's incident was definitely not ordinary.
As the emperor of the Kushan Empire, and a powerful emperor at that, Vasudeva I was not restricted in most cases. He could do whatever he wanted and maintain any action he wanted.
When Vasudeva I really needed to remain serious and earnest, it meant that this was not a small problem, but a big trouble.
Even the emperor felt restrained and pressured, so Zhu Helai could naturally understand what was involved.
Inferring from this aspect, Zhu Helai could roughly guess the identities of the people present.
Even if some people have not seen it with their own eyes, by looking at some people who know it, they can all confirm how tense and serious the current situation is.
If nothing unexpected happens, these people should be from the five branches of the Great Yuezhi. According to the current scale, there are probably people from all five branches of the Great Yuezhi.
Being able to gather such a large group of people for a gathering, there are countless things that can be discussed.
However, with this level of specifications and scale, there are fewer things that can be discussed.
Thinking of this, Zhu Helai glanced at Vasudeva I out of the corner of his eye. He had some doubts in his heart, but he quickly suppressed them and tried to remain calm as much as possible.
After all, given the current scale, it is not impossible to decide to change the emperor.
The emperor's power and voice may be important, but if the decision is really made to change the emperor, what Vasudeva I says will not be of much use.
In a situation that could involve a change in the emperor's position, Zhu Helai had to be even more cautious and careful, not to reveal any flaws in his words, and not to arouse suspicion.
At the same time, one's loyalty to Vasudeva I should not be influenced or seduced by external appearances and lead to bad behavior.
"Since Zhu Helai is here, we should be able to start as soon as possible. As for us, we are all ordinary people, so there is no need to introduce us in detail." After looking around at the other people, Onkrid, who rushed to Peshawar from north of the Khyber Pass, spoke first to announce the start of this time.
"Zhu Helai, the reason we invite you to the palace this time is because these elders have some questions to ask you. If you know the answer, you must tell me everything you know." After hearing the beginning of Onkeled's words, Vasudeva I, who was sitting in the main seat, delayed for a moment before speaking to inform Zhu Helai.
After hearing these words, Zhu Helai instantly understood the meaning of Vessantara I's words, and also understood the identities of the other people.
After all, having followed Vasudeva I for so many years, Zhu Helai basically knew all of the other party's habits, and there was no way he did not understand the deeper meaning of his words.
These elders, with just four simple words, have already revealed the identities of the people present, the power behind them, and the complexity of the situation.
"Your Majesty, I will tell you everything I know!" After understanding the attitude in the words, Zhu Helai also expressed his attitude and behavior, which was considered a further follow-up. The fact that these people came to ask questions showed that the part involved in the matter had already implicated the five branches of the Great Yuezhi, or in other words, the royal family.
Zhu Helai quickly recalled recent events in his mind, but he couldn't find anything that could involve this extent, so he was unusually unsure.
But after all, he is a man who has experienced many ups and downs. Even if he knows nothing, he will not show timidity in his words or expressions.
Only by showing enough confidence can people believe, trust and recognize this matter.
"Since Zhu Helai has said so, I will not be shy. I wonder what Mr. Zhu Helai thinks of the Empire?" Onkrid moved his position to look more amiable, and asked in a friendly manner, as if he were asking a question from an ordinary elder, "Who can represent the Empire, the Yuezhi or the Brahmans?"
Zhu Helai was speechless when he heard these words. He had never expected that the other party would be so direct and ask such a fatal question.
"The empire belongs to your Majesty. Among them are the Yuezhi people and the Brahmins. They are all your Majesty's subjects..." Zhu Helai responded in just one breath, making it seem very sincere.
This answer is not perfect and is not the answer in Zhu Helai's heart at all.
But the answer in my heart cannot be said at all. Once it is said, the result will be terrible.
Therefore, in order to avoid being stuck in two directions, Zhu Helai had no choice but to choose to embrace his position and firmly support Vasudeva I in order to gain an opportunity to advance or retreat. After all, the emperor of the empire at this time was Vasudeva I, not anyone else.
When Vasudeva I heard the same question and had just begun to think about it, he nodded with satisfaction after hearing the answer. At the same time, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes when he looked at other people.
Are they mobilizing so many people to come here just to ask this one question? Is this question worth making such a fuss?
"Very good, then the second question." Onkrid praised openly, but he would not let others see whether he agreed in his heart, and then continued to ask, "As an imperial man, I wonder who Zhu Helai chose to let Mi Heerd go to the Han Empire to try to marry a Han Empire princess for?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Helai's originally calm face instantly wrinkled, and his heart was filled with extremely complicated feelings for a moment.
Tell everyone present directly that it is what His Majesty the Emperor wants, but can this sentence really be said?
After saying this, it is equivalent to a complete break with the current queen, and at the same time, he will have to endure the backlash from the queen's power, which is not a good thing.
Especially with so many troops present, Zhu Helai couldn't guarantee whether the people in front of him were from the Queen's forces.
But after thinking about it, Zhu Helai's eyes suddenly became much firmer.
"I am naturally asking for something for His Majesty the Emperor!" Zhu Helai knew that he couldn't waste too much time, so he chose to gamble directly.
If he loses the bet, he will just have to bear the backlash from the Queen's forces. He can handle it!
But if you win the bet...
