Xing Minzhi didn't speak, but unconsciously, his heroic eyebrows changed their curvature.
His expression naturally fell into the eyes of the Supreme Emperor, who chuckled in his heart, and continued: "Take a ten thousand step back and say, even if your identity will not be revealed in this lifetime, then look at this second imperial decree. Those who accept will be Chu Yan's charity, don't rush to refute, you listen to the widow."
"Back then, Chu Yan and Le An brought you back, and the Xing family brought you up, so you feel that they are kind to you, and you don't want to be an ungrateful person—but how did Chu Yan treat you? What? At the beginning, he was clearly capable of directly helping you to the position, but he threw you to the bitter cold place like the border, and the widow heard that Chu Yan beat you up a few days ago, right?"
Xing Minzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, probably knowing that the next words of the Supreme Emperor might drive a wedge between him and Chu Yan. But I have to say that the Supreme Emperor's ability to turn black and white is really good. If it were him who didn't know much about it a few years ago-I'm afraid he would listen to the Supreme Emperor's words.
"The news of the Supreme Emperor is well-informed." A smile appeared on Xing Minzhi's face, which was originally a slight mockery of the Supreme Emperor, but in the eyes of the Supreme Emperor, Xing Minzhi was laughing at himself.
After all, in the mind of the Supreme Emperor, for a young man like Xing Minzhi, being beaten up is very irritating. Even if Xing Minzhi didn't say anything, he would definitely be unhappy.
The Supreme Emperor continued and said: "It is true that you can grow up so safely thanks to Chu Yan, he is kind to you, and this widow also admits, but don't you feel that Chu Yan is a little proud now? In the court hall I don’t want to comment on how he behaved, but in private, did he treat you too much? Even if the matter between you and that girl Chu Han made him a little annoyed, he still can’t treat cats and dogs like cats and dogs. If you say you will be beaten, you will be beaten once?"
The Taishanghuang's words can be said to be sincere and thoughtful. For a person like him who has always been indifferent to his children, it is not easy to say such words with confidence.
But Xing Minzhi really saw that the Supreme Emperor really had nothing to do with him, otherwise he wouldn't have come up with such a way to try to impress him.
It's just that the Taishanghuang's plan was obviously in vain.
Not to mention that the Taishanghuang's words were completely confusing black and white, even if it was true - Xing Minzhi didn't think there was anything wrong with Chu Yan beating him up. Xing Minzhi knew Chu Yan's temperament. If someone else did what happened that day, he would have to be stripped off by Chu Yan even if he didn't die. .
"People say that nurturing kindness is far greater than giving birth to kindness, so you don't need to waste any more words. Anyway, even if you are eloquent, you can't change my position." Xing Minzhi put back the three imperial edicts In the brocade box, he chuckled and said, "I've never seen what happened today, and if the Supreme Emperor wants to keep my bloodline, it's better not let people make this matter public... Otherwise, after the incident, I'm afraid it will be a disaster." Those princes of yours who have been raised and abolished don't even have the qualifications to be abolished."
What Xing Minzhi said was really cruel, he was threatening the emperor in turn.
Sure enough, the emperor's expression changed when he heard this, and some anger appeared on his originally pale face, but he forcibly suppressed his anger, and looked at Xing Minzhi with hatred: "You are clearly the one who was killed by that The whole family is fooling around!"
Xing Minzhi smiled and said: "Don't fool me, I am such an adult, I have my own decision in my heart, so I don't need you to say more."
After finishing speaking, Xing Minzhi bowed to the Supreme Emperor and said: "The minister will take his leave first."
However, the Supreme Emperor grabbed Xing Minzhi's sleeve: "Sit down first, and I will say the last sentence to you. After finishing this sentence, you can leave, and the widow... will never order anyone to go there again in the future." Looking for you."
Xing Minzhi looked down at the wrinkled and freckled and trembling hand clutching his sleeve, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
After thinking about it, he finally sat down: "Speak, I just hope that you can keep your promise and don't disturb my life in the future."
The Supreme Emperor slowly let go of his hand, and Xing Minzhi stretched out his hand to smooth the folds on his sleeve.
The Supreme Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "I haven't said the third imperial decree yet, if you can succeed, your whole life will be rewritten. If you ascend the throne and become the emperor at that time, then you will master this time." At that time, what is written in the imperial decree will be up to you. You can decide the lives of people in the world with a single thought. At that time, let alone one Chu Han, even thousands of them, it will all be in your single thought. between."
Speaking of this, the Supreme Emperor coughed heavily, and there was another trace of blood on the handkerchief.
Xing Minzhi looked at the white-haired appearance of the Supreme Emperor, and felt a little unbearable in his heart. Leaving aside the relationship between the two, the current appearance of the Supreme Emperor does not look like a former emperor. Just an ordinary old man grasping at the last straw in his life.
It's just that this old man wants too much.
Xing Minzhi sighed deeply: "Why are you doing this?"
The Supreme Emperor didn't even look at the veil and threw the veil aside. He looked at Xing Minzhi with cloudy eyes: "You won't understand." After finishing speaking, the Supreme Emperor suddenly changed his voice: " In fact, you have nothing to do to Chu Yan and that family in this matter. Yu Gong, this person is what you deserve, and what you are doing now is just getting back what belongs to you. Yu Shi, you are now with Chu Yan. Isn’t your daughter together? If you succeed, you can give her the position of queen, you know, Chu Yan is the one who values his own children the most.”
Xing Minzhi suddenly fell silent, he no longer refuted the words of the Supreme Emperor, but closed his eyes as if thinking.
The Supreme Emperor looked at Xing Minzhi's hand tightly holding the armrest of the chair, and suddenly smiled: "If you disagree with the widow, then Chu Yan will be a minister for the rest of your life, but if you become the throne in the future, then Chu Yan will be the king of the country." Zhang! The offspring of Chu Han is the crown prince... Minzhi, do you understand all this? If you were Chu Yan, would you rather be a minister for the rest of your life, or would you like to let your descendants ascend to the throne of God?"
Xing Minzhi gripped the chair more and more vigorously. Even Xing Minzhi had to admit that the Supreme Emperor's method of deceiving people was quite clever, and what he said just now really moved his heart.
Xing Minzhi's eyes suddenly opened, with a sharp edge: "So... what do you want me to do?"
