"Relentless, cold-blooded..."
After being silent for a long time, Zhao Yao gave a very general answer.
After hearing this, Kou Qing frowned.
Zhao Yao saw the doubts in Kou Qing's heart, and sighed: "After you left that day, Chen Lin asked my emperor uncle and He Niangniang to sit down and talk peacefully, trying to solve the palace changes in the palace without blood.
But neither my uncle nor He Niangniang didn't want to.
They insist on teaching high and low. "
Kou Qing sighed and said, "Your uncle won, and Chen Lin and his people got involved?"
Zhao Yao nodded slowly, "In the beginning, Chen Lin didn't plan to intervene in this matter, so my emperor uncle led the people under his hand to fight with He Niangniang to the end.
He Niangniang relied on the large number of people to secure the upper hand.
Just when He Niangniang was about to win.
My uncle put the sword on his neck and forced Chen Lin to shoot with death.
Chen Lin had no choice but to protect my uncle at the same time, and ordered the soldiers and horses outside the palace to slaughter the Taoists in the Taoist Palace.
At last… "
Zhao Yao said here, gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, a little bit unable to speak.
Kou Qing's heartbeat speeded up slowly, and said in disbelief, "Your emperor can't kill mothers, right?"
Kou Qing felt that Dao King Zhao Nong wanted to regain the power of the fief, and wanted to clear the mother and concubine on his head, only the murder of the mother.
Otherwise, even if he overwhelmed He Niangniang through Chen Lin, it would be difficult for him to get back the power of the fief.
After all, many important positions in the land of the Taoist King Zhao Nong, as well as large and small government affairs, were held by Taoists.
Dao King Zhao Nong just overwhelmed He Niangniang, and couldn't solve any problems at all.
Zhao Yao smiled bitterly and said, "He didn't kill his mother..."
Kou Qing let out a sigh of relief, "That's okay..."
If Dao King Zhao Nong really killed his mother, then Kou Qing would have to consider his attitude towards Dao King Zhao Nong again in the future.
As a descendant of a saint, he must not have too deep negotiations with such a person who committed the crime of mother-killing.
Otherwise, it is easy to shame the ancestors' reputation.
"What good… "
Zhao Yao sighed and said, "Although he didn't kill his mother, he did imply that He Niangniang hanged herself. The condition is to allow the Daomen to continue to survive on the ground in the future."
Kou Qing took a breath after hearing this.
Kou Qing felt that the Taoist King Zhao Nong's move was much more ruthless than the murder of his mother.
Killing but nodding your head.
It is far better to hack one's own enemy with a knife than to force one's enemy to commit suicide.
It is hard for Kou Qing to imagine how cruel a son is to force his own mother to die.
That's his mother.
Kou Qing said with a trembling voice: "He Niangniang... agreed?"
Zhao Yao's face was sullen and speechless.
But Kou Qing already knew the answer through Zhao Yao's silence.
He Niangniang obviously agreed.
Daomen is everything to her, more important than her life.
When she couldn't make a comeback, she could only choose to use her life for the door in exchange for a ray of life.
Kou Qing looked at Zhao Yao and tremblingly said, "Did He Niangniang say something when she was dying?"
Zhao Yao gritted her teeth and said: "He Niangniang said that she should marry the Kou clan with a stern face, not the Zhao clan gracefully..."
Kou Qing was taken aback, not knowing what to say.
Zhao Yao whispered to himself: "Power? Power?! Is it really that important? For power, can we disregard family affection?"
Kou Qing hesitated and said: "The world says that the heavenly family has no affection..."
Zhao Yao bluntly said: "I don't like the heavenly family without affection. No matter how great the authority, how important is your family. My emperor grandfather took the initiative to give my father a meditating position, just to prevent the heavenly family from fighting.
He wanted to use this method to find some affection for the heavenly family.
I also want to let the heavenly family have some affection.
I don't want one day when we will meet each other. "
After a pause, Zhao Yao said again: "Actually, what makes me feel the most heartache is not the death of Niang Niang. It is the people who have died. The whole place is full of living people, turned into a place of corpses, that scene, I still I can't forget it.
Obviously they are the ones who paid the most in this palace change, but how many people remember them
After everything that happened in the Daowang Palace was spread out, people only talked about Daowang and He Niangniang. Who cares who the dead are
They paid the highest price, but they didn't even leave their names.
What are they for
If it is only for their own desires, why should they bet their lives
What does power mean
If it only means the power of life and death, what right does it have to exist? "
Kou Qing looked at Zhao Yao and said in a deep voice: "So... Do you think that power not only represents the power of life and death, but also represents responsibility?"
Zhao Yao nodded, "I used to watch the emperor's grandfather's personal notes, but I always didn't understand. When the emperor and grandfather sent soldiers and horses to fight outside, the people killed usually counted in tens of thousands. Why is the emperor's grandfather? When reviewing the documents submitted by the Department of Criminal Law of the Song Dynasty, it was checked three or four times just for one life.
After finally confirming that the person deserves to die, he will use the Zhubi to make a decision.
Now I understand that power represents not only the power of life and death, but also a responsibility.
Mastering power means not only mastering the power of life and death, but also carrying that share of responsibility.
Therefore, even if the power of life and death is in control, he can't do whatever he wants, and he should be worthy of his own responsibility.
Worthy of everyone who is willing to support you and let you be in charge of life and death.
They are supporting you with their lives, and you are not qualified to rush their lives. "
After listening to Zhao Yao's words, Kou Qing remained silent for a long time.
In the end, Kou Qing put his hand on Zhao Yao's shoulder and said with a smile: "Smelly boy, you have grown up..."
Zhao Yao stared at Kou Qing and asked very seriously: "Did brother understand this a long time ago?"
Kou Qing said frankly: "Kou's tutor is not the same as Zhao's tutor. My grandfather and my father told me something that the emperor could only learn.
Both my grandfather and my father felt that the root of power is responsibility.
How much power you have, you have to shoulder much responsibility.
Responsibility is the most important thing for those in power.
The power of life and death is second.
Because even the toughest in power, many times can't kill people as they please.
On the contrary, those bandits and gangsters can kill people at will.
So my grandfather used to say that being a bandit that everyone is afraid of is far better than being a power holder.
Because the bandits kill people, they don't need to bear much responsibility.
And those in power will have to bear too much responsibility for killing. "
Zhao Yao nodded thoughtfully when he heard the words.
Kou Qing laughed in a low voice: "I don't want to hide it from you, the old man and my father said that responsibility is too heavy. I was afraid that I would not be able to carry it, and I was afraid that I would not be able to carry it. "
