Chapter 240: It must be recorded in the history books!
Chen Changsheng did not explain, but asked: "Back then, there was also a human emperor who spoke rudely in front of Chen and even wanted to kill Chen with a sword. Unexpectedly, he cut off 30% of the country's fate with one sword."
Zhao Zhen would not believe it, and said: "If you really have such ability, why would you sit in this mountain and watch."
Chen Changsheng said: "Chen is happy."
"It seems to me that the Guizhou donkey has no skills."
Zhao Zhen snorted coldly, but suddenly shook her arm, and a short sword fell into her hand.
"You said that killing you with one sword can end the fate of the country?"
Zhao Zhen thought for a moment and said, "I would like to give it a try."
As he spoke, he pointed the sword in his hand at Chen Changsheng's throat.
Chen Changsheng did not retreat but advanced, and there was only an inch between him and the tip of the sword.
But when Zhao Zhen looked into his eyes, she suddenly thought of retreating.
He didn't know where this intention to retreat came from, but his instinct made him put down his sword.
Chen Changsheng asked: "Why did you let it go again?"
Zhao Zhen was silent, feeling vaguely uneasy in his heart. For a moment, he didn't understand why he would let go. This was contrary to his usual domineering attitude.
He breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "In the early years, I saw some strange things in the history books of the old scene. Later, I heard about the Peach Blossom Sword Immortal, and also heard about a Mr. Chen from the Taoist Xuantian...
…”
"Tell me, my king, are there really immortals in this world?"
Chen Changsheng glanced at him and asked, "Didn't you already see it with your own eyes?"
Zhao Zhen paused for a moment. That day at the execution ground, he saw that sword peach blossom, and it was exactly what he saw with his own eyes.
But he still kept asking himself, are there really immortals in this world?
In fact, he knew the answer, it was just that he expected not to have it.
Chen Changsheng said: "Since ancient times, many emperors have sacrificed themselves for the immortal path. It is not surprising that a human emperor has such thoughts."
Zhao Zhen sneered and said, "Did anyone really get it?"
"Emperor Jing was obsessed with immortality for half his life, but in the end he was almost poisoned by the Xuantian Taoist priest. His ancestor Taizu was addicted to the art of witchcraft. He took the medicine for several days, and smoke appeared in his seven orifices. The so-called emperor's immortality is just a way to kill himself."
On this point, Zhao Zhen has never been ambiguous.
Chen Changsheng said: "If that's the case, why do you want to ask Chen again?"
Zhao Zhen said: "I am King Xiang, and my heart is for the world, so this is the way to die. But if I were an ordinary person, I would also have selfish motives, and I would like to know whether there is or not."
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng was a little surprised and said: "Separating selfishness from the world is indeed the way it should be, so it doesn't matter whether it is present or not."
"Why isn't it important?" Zhao Zhen looked at him.
Chen Changsheng said: "If so, would your selfishness be greater than heaven?"
Zhao Zhen pondered for a long time, then shook her head, but suddenly changed her words and said: "If immortality is easily available, I should naturally reach out."
There is Tianxia within the world, and in his selfishness, the world is also the main one.
"If there is someone like you, he should be the hero."
"Why someone like me? Not me?"
"Because this world is too confusing."
Chen Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "There is almost no room for turning around in the chaos in Daxiang. The rebels will continue to rise, one after another. Even if you spend your whole life, you may not be able to kill them all."
Zhao Zhen said: "Do you agree with Brother Lu that you should govern the world with kindness?"
He shook his head and said, "But can those dissatisfactions really be changed by benevolent government?"
"It is definitely not enough to govern the world with kindness." Chen Changsheng said: "It's just because rebellion is indeed closely related to people's livelihood."
"People's livelihood..." Zhao Zhen murmured.
Chen Changsheng nodded and said: "In the early years, when Chen passed by the Tongtian River, he had a conversation with a governor of Shuihe in the old Jing Dynasty about Jingren and Xiangren. Obviously, the status of Jingren was far lower than that of Xiangren, so that the new appointee
The governor of Shuihe just wanted to avoid getting into trouble, so he wanted to open the gate and release the water without evacuating the people."
"The life of tens of thousands of scenery is just talked about. At this point, it is indeed a mistake."
Zhao Zhen snorted coldly: "Not only did those tens of thousands of people not suffer from the flood, they even became rebels later. From a historical perspective, they deserve to die. It would be a pity not to drown them."
"Moreover, if I were kind to them, wouldn't the rebels rise again?"
"Of course not."
Chen Changsheng said: "It's just a different stance. If one day the country of Daxiang is destroyed and the family is destroyed, you will also think about reviving the country. There is no distinction between right and wrong. It's just the winner or the loser."
Zhao Zhen laughed loudly and said: "Yes, he is the winner and the loser!"
Chen Changsheng said: "Looking at it on the other hand, in fact, if there had not been such an extreme act, the rebels in Tongshun Mansion would not have risen like this, or even responded to a hundred responses."
Zhao Zhen said: "These people are so pervasive that even if they don't recruit soldiers and horses from the people in the scenery, they will start from other places, so in the end there will be this war, that's for sure."
"I, Zhao Zhen, am never afraid of anything. I am just afraid that no one will dare to jump out and make trouble."
Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "He is indeed domineering."
Zhao Zhen straightened her back and said: "Whether he is benevolent or tyrannical, the world needs people like me, Zhao Zhen. When I have wiped out the remnants of the old scene, I will point my sword at Xi Xiao."
"When the world is unified, even if everyone in the world accuses me of being cruel and unkind, it will still be recorded in the history books that it is I, Zhao Zhen, who unified the world!"
Suddenly a strong wind blew up and blew up Zhao Zhen's robe.
He is full of ambitions, and this emperor who is over fifty years old has never changed his ambitions until now.
The world said he was cruel, said he was unkind, and said he was not a good emperor, but he didn't care. The unification of the world that his sword aimed at was what he really wanted.
Chen Changsheng looked at his back, and at a certain moment, he did see a figure standing in the history book.
This King Xiang is indeed unique.
"how?"
Zhao Zhen looked at him and said, "Can I, Zhao Zhen, be said to be a hero?"
Chen Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If we can really unify the world, it would be a great thing."
"Don't you know how to count?"
Zhao Zhen said: "If you are really as powerful as Brother Lu said, shouldn't the world's pattern be in your calculations?"
Chen Changsheng said: "That's true, but if everyone knew it, wouldn't it be boring?"
Zhao Zhen shook her head and said, "You are still saying these empty words."
"Just think of it as empty talk."
Chen Changsheng smiled, but he didn't pay too much attention to what Zhao Zhen said. Such was his character.
"The world is unified..."
Chen Changsheng murmured in his mouth. He couldn't help but shake his head and smile, but his eyes turned to Shang Lu who was kneeling in front of the grave.
If we compare him now with Zhao Zhen.
He is still a little young.
I just don’t know what the situation will be like when these two people know each other’s identity.
