King You Sheng shook his head repeatedly.” Brother, I don’t have many days left. Just let me die in peace. I have to leave some descendants for you. ‘”‘ “Can you hear me out first?”the Emperor said seriously.
King Sheng You thought about it carefully and decided to continue listening.
However, he had already made up his mind. He would definitely not agree to this matter anyway.
The Emperor extended three fingers and said,” This is killing three birds with one stone. Moreover, it will also be of great benefit to the people of the world.”
“Firstly, although the Great Chu State has been established, there are barbarians outside and the Great Yue State eyeing us covetously. The Jianghu is unstable inside, and evil spirits are running around everywhere.”
“If you are alive, the Great Yue State and the barbarians will not dare to step into Great Chu. Is this a benefit?”
After saying that, the Emperor stopped talking, as if waiting for King Sheng You’s reply.
After pondering for a long time, King Sheng You nodded with difficulty.
Other factors aside, the Emperor was right.
If he was here, the might of the army would be enough to intimidate them.
If he died, although the Great Yue State would not dare to attack rashly, they would still be eyeing him covetously.
“Second.” When the Emperor saw that his younger brother had agreed, he raised a second finger and said,””l won’t put the Tiger Tally in the royal treasury. While you’re faking your death, I’ll let the generals know and give them hope that I can give the Tiger Tally to them at any time, so they can work harder. ”
“If they work hard, I’ll be able to stabilize the border. Isn’t this the second benefit?”
King Sheng You was speechless.
Although he did not agree, it was obvious that he had tacitly agreed.
That was right. If he really died and didn’t come back to life, he could use the Tiger Tally to do his best to stabilize the border and find a loyal person at the same time.
The Emperor smiled and extended a third finger.””Third, I want to test the loyalty of the entire imperial family.”
At this point, his gaze turned cold.
” I have nine children, each of whom is a dragon and a phoenix. However, I don’t know what their intentions are, so I’ll use this as an opportunity to test their loyalty. If they aren’t loyal, they’ll become tools for your resurrection.”
“But this has nothing to do with the people of the world.” Sheng You King seemed to have finally found a point to refute and quickly said.
With a point of rebuttal, he could argue with reason. Even in his memory, he had never won with his mouth.
“I will die, you will die, but this mountain, this water, this sky, this earth, they will not die.”The Emperor slowly said,”lf if I am about to die, will I pass on the throne?””
King Sheng You thought about it and nodded.
“If I were to pass on my legacy to a disloyal person, would Great Chu still be able to survive?”the Emperor continued.
King Sheng You pondered for a moment, then shook his head and nodded. “I don’t know if they can survive, but the people definitely won’t have it easy.” Why did he nod?
A person with bad moral character did not mean that he did not have power and wisdom. On the contrary, his potential and wisdom could be displayed more vividly than a person with a deep mind. This was the reason why King
Sheng You nodded.
As for why he shook his head, the reason was simple.
Perhaps the Great Chu State could be governed well, but whether the people could be stable was still another question.
Ability wasn’t everything.
“Then I can use this method to verify whether the chances of disloyalty can be lowered in the future?””This is also considered as us elders putting righteousness above family,” the Emperor said.”
“If it’s really as you say, I’ll agree. ‘”‘
Using a disloyal and unjust descendant as a sacrifice was akin to cleaning up the family and putting righteousness above family. Instead, there was no estrangement.
The Emperor smiled. He knew his younger brother’s character well. He only needed to say a few words to convince him.
Next, they explained the detailed plan one by one and began to communicate on the grassland.
When Xu Bai and the others saw their so-called plan, everyone looked at Yun Zihai with an understanding expression.
By now, they had already figured everything out.
The eighth prince’s book was given by the emperor.
The poor Eighth Prince still thought that he had discovered all of this on his own until his death.
As for Yun Zihai, he only made everything seem smoother.
First, he had to let the Eighth Prince find the contents of the book. Second, he had to make it difficult for the Eighth Prince.
The only surviving craftsman was arranged by the Emperor.
After the Thousand-faced Fox discovered it through the craftsman and brought it to the Eighth Prince, everything would fall into place.
Most importantly, he had to pressure the eighth prince, which was why Yun Zihai was involved.
It was the Emperor who made the Eighth Prince think that Yun Zihai had news and even made Yun Zihai investigate the Eighth Prince.
In the Emperor’s opinion, there were at most two situations.
The first was that Yun Zihai could not find any clues. This would put pressure on the Eighth Prince and allow everything to happen smoothly.
The second was that Yun Zihai had found a clue, but he would definitely be obstructed in the process.
As for what the obstacle was, it was the Ghost Sculptor.
Even the Ghost Sculptor was the Emperor’s man.
His goal was to stop Yun Zihai at the most critical moment. After all, in the Emperor’s opinion, the Ghost Sculptor was stronger than Yun Zihai. Of course, the Ghost Sculptor had already received orders not to kill Yun Zihai..
