Three bloody people were thrown out from the prince's mansion.

The three men had their hands smashed, their ears were pierced, their tongues were hooked, their noses were cut off, there were only holes in their sockets and no eyeballs, and only one pair of feet was intact on their body, so they were left for them to walk back to the Xuantian Empire.

"Crown Prince, wise men take advantage of their power and act with the wind. Why don't they betray the people of Xuantian Empire and get the throne of Xia first and then talk about other things? Anyway, Xia Kingdom is in hand at that time, and everything will be listened to you by the prince? Even if you don't have this plan, you shouldn't be so overdoing things. Those three lobbyists are not ordinary in the Xuantian Empire. One of them is the illegitimate son of General Huoyun. Alas, it's fine to bomb it out. You, you're really too serious." An old adviser who had followed the prince for twenty years surrounded the prince with heartache and advice.

The eldest prince showed an unshakable expression like steel in his thin face, and said lightly: "The bad things in the world are all the so-called wise men. The wise men are unrighteous. They are the so-called wise men and act with the wind. In other words, aren't they just a bitch? Whoever gives money and benefits will sleep with whom? I am the eldest prince of Xia Kingdom. Everyone in the world can take advantage of the momentum and everyone can act with the wind. Only me will definitely not do it!"

As he said that, the eldest prince couldn't help but smile, and smiled bitterly with heartache: "Actually, those three lobbyists really told me. The throne of Xia Kingdom is so close to me, so I dug those three people's eyes, hooked their tongues, cut their noses, and smashed their hands with such a ruthless move, in order to completely cut off this path. The third brother always said that I was indecisive, and I was indeed indecisive, but at least in some things, I never hesitated!"

The eldest prince said, looking up at the sky, the old dragon was still shaking its head and waving its tail and sucking the fate of Xia.

"The greatest sorrow in life is that your parents don't trust you. What's even more sorrow is that a person only believes in himself, not others, and is alone. My father has been interpreting these four words carefully throughout his life."

"I hope he will succeed in resusciating his life, so that I can ask him to take a good look. His eldest son will definitely be able to govern Xia State in an orderly manner, so that he can understand how stubborn and self-righteous he is!" The eldest prince said, and he had been holding his breath for more than ten years.

"How is the emperor?" Gu Zhizhang came to the hall where the life-suspending furnace was placed. The guards were tightly guarded here, full of Xuanlong Imperial Guards. Thousands of soldiers surrounded the hall tightly like steel walls. This was only visible on the surface, and those invisible guards may be more visible than they could be seen.

Even the current prime minister Gu Zhizhang could not get closer.

There were hundreds of civil and military officials standing outside the hall. These civil and military officials didn't know how long they had been standing here, and they all stood still and stood wither like nails.

The head of these officials was Gu Zhizhang, the Prime Minister of Xia State. At this time, opposite Gu Zhizhang was Huang Nuer in a yellow python robe. Huang Nuer had a faint expression, his eyes were drooping, and he had no emotion.

But no one around him dared to approach, including the dragon guards.

Gu Zhizhang is an exception.

The two stood in stalemate and refused to give in to each other.

Huang Nuer has the cultivation of the pseudo-golden elixir. There are not many people in the world who can stand in front of Huang Nuer. However, although Gu Zhizhang is just a civil servant and has no cultivation, he is still as good as Huang Nuer. He is not inferior in terms of momentum, which is quite difficult.

Gu Zhizhang looked at the black hall for a long time and asked, "Whose idea is it? Is the emperor crazy to use the fortune of the Xia Kingdom to prolong his life?"

Huang Nuer's eyes opened slightly: "Just with your words, I can kill you immediately."

"Hmph, I see that the movement of Xia Kingdom is like witnessing the destruction of Xia Kingdom with one's own eyes. Life is worse than death. If you kill me now, I will only be grateful to you." Gu Zhizhang's words were full of gunpowder. There is indeed a kind of desolation and despair that is greater than death.

Huang Nuer'er's slightly opened eyelids lowered again: "The emperor has his own plans. The prime minister should go back to the mansion and wait for good news. Speaking of which, before the emperor entered the life-renewal furnace, there was a strict order for no one to stay in front of the palace for more than a cup of tea. Otherwise, according to the rebellion, he would be killed without mercy. The prime minister has been standing here for a quarter of an hour. I have violated the order."

Huang Nuer'er's words were not discounted at all. Huang Nuer was the private slave of Emperor Xuanlong. He only cared about Emperor Xuanlong's orders and ignored Xia Guo, Gu Zhizhang and the ministers behind him. If he really wanted to kill him, Huang Nuer would never hesitate at all. The words of many people and many powers and laws did not blame others. In Huang Nuer's eyes, such words were of no value.

Gu Zhizhang still had no intention of leaving, and just stood there with his neck in his arms, as if he wanted to ask Emperor Xuanlong for an answer.

Huang Nuer sighed and said, "Actually, Nuer is also puzzled. When he learned that the emperor was going to use three pillars to extend his life, he asked the emperor, once he said that once the country's fortune collapsed and the foundation was shaken, what's the use of the emperor's life even if it lasted for a hundred years?"

Gu Zhizhang immediately showed a focused expression when he heard this. This is the question he wanted to ask Emperor Xuanlong today.

This is not only a question that Gu Zhizhang wants to ask, but also a common question among all the people in the Xia Kingdom who knew that Emperor Xuanlong would prosper with the fate of the dragon vein country.

No one believes that Emperor Xuanlong is a person who is greedy for life and fears death. It is precisely because Emperor Xuanlong will not ignore the Kingdom of Xia because of his own selfishness that everyone has many questions in their hearts. They all want to ask why.

Huang Nuer glanced at Gu Zhizhang, who looked like a student, and said, "The emperor replied, 'Everyone is afraid of the national fortune and the foundation. He dared not move at all to these two countries. After decades of understanding, I suddenly realized that the national fortune and the foundation are important, but there is something more important above them, that is, the hearts of people. When a great disaster comes like a mountain collapse, only someone can resist natural disasters. The foundation of the country is shaken, and the passing of national fortune is not scary. If the hearts of people are completely lost, it is the most terrible.' The little slave then asked what the hearts of people are?"

Gu Zhizhang's expression became more and more focused, and he pricked up his ears and waited to listen to Huang Nuer's words behind him.

Huang Nuer shook his head and sighed: "The emperor just smiled. He probably thought Nuer, I was stupid and couldn't explain it clearly. Nuer, I dare not continue to ask."

Gu Zhizhang couldn't help but look disappointed when he heard this, and was obviously quite disappointed with the answer given by Huang Nuer.

However, Huang Nuer paused and said, "However, although Huang Nuer was stupid, he also had some experience in people's hearts this day. Please give me some advice."

This is the first time Gu Zhizhang heard Huang Nuer say please give me some advice. No one can ignore the words of the person closest to the emperor, including a prime minister like Gu Zhizhang.

Gu Zhizhang immediately said, "See attentively, Gu."

Huang Nuer looked around at the officials behind Gu Zhizhang. These officials stood as straight as willow trees, and each of them looked angry. Those who dared to come here to block the emperor were probably ready to give him a warning. He would have to leave suicide notes at home and prepare a coffin.

"Our Xia Kingdom is a small country with weak strength. It is surrounded by wolves, but it has struggled to survive for thousands of years under such a harsh situation. It has witnessed the prosperity to decline of countless countries of all sizes with their own eyes. What is the reason?" Huang Nuer asked.

Gu Zhizhang remained silent because he knew that Huang Nuer didn't need his answer now.

Huang Nuer continued: "Is it because my Xia Kingdom is stable and strong? Or is it because my Xia Kingdom is prosperous?"

"If our Xia Kingdom is strong in its foundation, it will not be a small place to go through war disasters. The prosperity of our country will have nothing to do with our Xia Kingdom. For the past thousand years, will our Xia Kingdom not face the disaster of national destruction in that year?"

"Since it is not the national destiny or national foundation, then what is supporting our country's long-lasting success?"

Huang Nuer looked at Gu Zhizhang, looked at the ministers who were coming from behind Gu Zhizhang, and then said, "It's because of the hearts of people, the hearts of our Xia people have never turned upside down."

"So, what is the heart of the people? Nuer thinks that the ministers present are the hearts of the people. The lobbyist of the Xuantian Empire who promised to help him out of the door is the heart of the people. The third prince who also shot the Baigu disciple of the Baixiang Empire who promised to help him get the throne of the Xia Kingdom is the heart of the people."

Since Emperor Xuanlong chose to prolong his life, he naturally had already judged the actions of the eldest prince and the third prince, so he had already mastered the actions of the eldest prince and the third prince. If the eldest prince and the third prince sold their country for honor, Huang Nuer would personally take action to help Emperor Xuanlong bury his son in an unknown rotten water puddle and let him rot and worm. You must know that even if the third prince wore a yellow robe, Emperor Xuanlong was not willing to kill him. Because no matter how the third prince made a fuss, it was an internal strife in the Xia royal family. Emperor Xuanlong, who was older and had a murderous intention, could tolerate it, but if the third prince colluded with internal and external forces, Emperor Xuanlong would definitely not be able to bear it.

What is gratifying is that the eldest prince and the third prince both made the most correct choice, so this is the human heart.

"The country's fortune is a big river, and the country's fortune is a small boat on the big river. The people driving this ship are not the buoyancy of the big river, but the people in the boat. When the waves are coming, what can be trusted is not the country's fortune is a big river, nor the waves, but the shippilots in the boat."

"Prime Minister Gu, do you think Nuer's understanding is a bit too shallow?"

Gu Zhizhang was silent for a moment, stared at Huang Nuer, then turned around and left. Seeing this, all the officials were about to leave. When Gu Zhizhang was halfway through, he turned around and said, "I didn't expect Huang Zhangyin to have such eloquence. However, in a few words, I can't believe you. I still firmly believe that the destiny of the country is the foundation of a country and cannot be damaged. I will talk about everything after the emperor comes out."
