Liu Mingzhi looked at the queen's sad and accusing eyes and shook his head with difficulty.
"Talking about...huh...I can't even talk about regrets. Liu Mingzhi has never regretted the path he chose.
Time is also destiny, I have prepared two roads for myself and two roads for Your Majesty.
The ending is not too bad, at least everything is still under my control.
Sometimes I don’t want to do this either…”
There was a crisp snap.
The Queen didn't care about the severely injured and weak Young Master Liu, and directly raised her hand to give him a slap. Looking at Liu Mingzhi's calm eyes, the Queen's bright eyes were cold.
"This slap is to return the slap you gave me back then!"
"Haha... You really hold a grudge. To be honest, I regretted it after that slap. It's a pity that I regretted it too late..."
"Snapped!"
There was another crisp sound, and Young Master Liu received another merciless slap from the Queen. A bright red palm print quickly appeared on his pale and bloodless face.
"This slap was given to you for not caring about your own life.
When the two countries of Jin and Tu are about to fall and be completely destroyed, it is the day when your father's life is in danger. Bring your mother's masters to rescue your father.
Absurd, extremely absurd.
You can do it by handing over your wealth and life to a ten-year-old girl! "
Looking at the look in the Queen's eyes that seemed to be filled with hatred, Liu Mingzhi gave a feeble wry smile.
"It turns out that Yue'er didn't disappoint her father, didn't it?"
"Since you knew you were in danger, why did you put yourself in danger? You keep saying how much you value your wife, children, and children. If you really value them, you shouldn't put yourself in danger.
Have you ever considered how they would live if something happened to you? "
"Alas! If you want to create momentum, I have to do it!
I gave His Majesty two paths, and he finally chose this path!
I don’t know how this child is doing in Beijing now!
As an emperor, he was certainly helpless with this move.
But in his eyes, the country, the country, and the country are more important than anything else. He only has the country, the country, the country, and the country in his eyes, and cannot care about the world. He is destined not to be the emperor of the ages.
He always thought that my power was too heavy, which would affect his imperial authority.
However, he ignored how he came to be the emperor. It was my uncle who held great power who supported him by force against all opinions.
It is true that I hold great power, but without the restraint of me, the powerful official of the border region, the elders of the three and four dynasties in the imperial court would have turned upside down long ago.
He thought that he relied on his own imperial power to secure his throne, but he didn't know that what those officials feared was me, the one-word king with a heavy army.
As long as I stand up for his throne, those officials won't be able to change the world.
The fear of my soldiers and horses is a shackles in the hearts of all officials.
As soon as today's incident is over, this child will immediately know what it means to have a weak king and strong ministers, what it means to be a veteran of three dynasties, and what it means to be a true crony.
Alas, this kid is busy, and I don’t know if he can withstand the pressure of the courtiers. "
The Queen looked at Liu Mingzhi with a somewhat sentimental look. Her bright eyes stared helplessly and resentfully at Liu Mingzhi, her silver teeth clenching.
"The situation has reached this point, and you are still worried about him. I am also an emperor, and I admire you for being so loyal, but loyalty is loyalty, and foolish loyalty is foolish loyalty.
You are already a fool, do you know that?
He has already murderous intentions towards you, but you are still worried about his future.
What kind of poison have you been poisoned by the Li family? "
"hehe........"
Liu Mingzhi sneered softly, his eyes a little dazed and regretful.
"To put it bluntly, you are wrong. This is not loyalty, nor is it stupid loyalty.
Back then, you secretly instigated the second brother, third brother, and the others to rebel. You even dispatched Yue'er to Dalong to drive a wedge between me and my eldest brother.
The eldest brother knew Yue'er's identity, but instead of killing her because she was an enemy princess, he protected Yue'er's safety at all times under the attacks of the rebel kings.
I think Yue'er not only told me these things, but also told you.
I know that the eldest brother's purpose in protecting Yue'er from being harmed is to tie me to the chariot of Li Ye and Li Tao, so that I can support one of his brothers and continue the incense of his Li Baiyu lineage. Dalong's country and country will not fall apart.
I know it very well.
But no matter what the eldest brother's purpose was, he spared Yue'er's life and my Liu Mingzhi's daughter's life.
Based on what I know about you, if you put yourself in the position of the eldest brother, facing an enemy princess or prince who comes with the purpose of alienating the feelings of the monarch and his ministers, you will never be able to reach the level of the eldest brother.
Is it right? "
The Queen was stunned for a moment, and after struggling for a long time, she sighed feebly and acquiesced.
"Haha... So, no matter what the purpose of eldest brother is, his kindness in giving Yue'er a life cannot be ignored.
It’s true that I, Liu Mingzhi, am greedy for money and lustful, but I still understand the principle of giving someone a peach in return.
Yan'er is the princess and my first wife, and Princess Jingyao is my son Chengzhi's betrothed wife.
After my eldest brother became famous, I supported the child Li Yezhi to ascend the throne and become emperor. In order to repay my eldest brother's kindness to Yue'er, I completely treated the child Li Ye as my own and raised him as half a son.
Support him vigorously and spare no effort to teach him the way to be a king.
It's a pity that he chose the wrong one out of the two paths!
In my life, I value family ties. I love power, but I don't value power.
I didn’t expect...sigh..."
The Queen looked at Liu Mingzhi with a look of regret for being betrayed by his relatives, and shook her head with a complicated expression: "So, do you regret it?"
"I don't regret it, at least I did what the old man said and have a clear conscience.
This kid Li Ye chose this path himself. A hundred years from now, when I meet my father and the late emperor, I won’t be at a loss for words.
I have done my best to the Li family! "
With an indescribable meaning in her eyes, the Queen lifted Liu Mingzhi up from the snow, took out a pill and stuffed it into Liu Mingzhi's mouth.
"I politely admire you but resent you, admire your character, but resent your ruthlessness towards me.
But thinking about it on the other hand, what you did was not wrong.
Because when Wanyan was young, she did something similar to what Li Ye did to you to her mentor, Mrs. Longdo, but the old master still did not complain at all and loyally assisted Wanyan.
His father died early, and he succeeded to the throne hastily at a young age. He relied on the help of his mentor Long Duo to gradually stabilize the imperial court.
After listening to what you said today, and thinking about it carefully, Mrs. Longduo should have treated me like a daughter just like you back then, and she should have given me everything she could and taught me everything she could.
In fact, how to evaluate whether it is right or wrong?
I politely say that as your real first wife, although I am unfair to you, I am unfair to you. But from Wanyan's perspective as the king of a country, he doesn't think Li Ye did anything wrong.
The only thing to blame is power.
The bustle in the world is all for the sake of coming, and the hustle and bustle of the world is all for the sake of going away.
Who can escape the shackles of fame and fortune in one's life? "
"Ahem...you are seeing more and more clearly!"
"Wanyan doesn't want to discuss these so-called truths with you. Wanyan only wants to ask you, is what you told Yue'er true or false? Is the Kingdom of Jin really hopeless?"
Liu Mingzhi's eyes gradually became longer while looking at the beautiful night sky.
"Liu Song should be carrying my command arrow at this moment and on his way to the Turkic battlefield!"
