After hearing this, Zhao Kai couldn't help but clapped his hands and said:
"You are such a eloquent Yuan Benxi. You really deserve your reputation. I have to say that you are indeed eloquent and think about the overall situation."
"Yuan Benxi, let me ask you, for the sake of the so-called overall situation, can you really ignore everything?
Twenty years ago, for the so-called overall situation, you cut Xun Ping into pieces. For the so-called overall situation, you ambush Wu Su, who was pregnant with Liujia. Even today, for the so-called overall situation, you allow the restoration of the Western Chu state, even at the risk of taking advantage of it.
There are hundreds of thousands of old soldiers from the Spring and Autumn Period, just to weaken the strength of the major feudal kings.
Yuan Benxi, believe it or not, one day, the person behind you will kill you and Zhang Julu for the so-called overall situation! Is this what you call the overall situation?
Don't try to persuade others to do good things if they haven't suffered. If something hasn't happened to you yet, you can ask me to think about the overall interests of the world in a high-sounding way, but if the butcher's knife falls on you, can you truly accept it calmly?"
Zhao Kai's words were heart-breaking. In front of Zhao Dun, he dared to say without any scruples that what you, Yuan Benxi, told was the truth, and so was I, Zhao Kai.
Why endure the calm for a while and take a step back to open up the world? This is obviously moral kidnapping. Forbearing for a while may mean the calm is calm, but taking a step back only makes you more and more angry.
Obviously, Zhao Kai chose not to take a step back on this issue.
Yuan Benxi also sighed deeply when he heard this and said:
"It is a matter of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor. If the old man's death can bring peace to the world, then the old man will gladly accept it, but it is just a death. After living for so many years, the old man has already taken everything lightly."
Zhao Kai didn't know whether what Yuan Benxi said was true or false, so Zhao Kai gave a thumbs up and said:
"You are amazing and noble. But do you believe it or not, they want not only your life, but also the lives of the people around you? At that time, could you still face it calmly?
Xu Xiao also worked for the overall interests of the world, but all he got in exchange was your extravagance."
Yuan Benxi obviously lacked confidence at this time. His relatives had always been his biggest weakness. If Li Yang really made a move against Jiang Huding, he would fight back with all his strength no matter what.
Yuan Benxi said:
"The reason why the emperor is able to command the world depends on the people's awe for the imperial power. Without this awe, how can we command the world?"
In the feudal era, the emperor was a god-like existence in people's hearts, so he could be given supreme power.
Zhao Kai smiled and said:
"Imperial power? Yuan Benxi, don't forget that there are still one hundred and thirty-seven corpses of immortals lying in Qintian Prison. There are also many immortal monarchs among them. Before today, who could have thought that,
How can a powerful person in the immortal world, an immortal whom people respect as a god, be so vulnerable?
Or do you think that the emperor of the mortal world is better than the emperor of heaven in the immortal world? If that is the case, then what kind of heaven do you still worship on weekdays? Just worship the emperor."
After Zhao Kai finished speaking, he ignored Yuan Benxi and turned to Zhao Dun who was sitting on the dragon throne and said:
"I know what Yuan Benxi said is right. There are still 200,000 troops around Tai'an City. If we really take action, lives will be destroyed. You all advised me to put aside personal grudges for the sake of the overall situation.
Then I will ask you today, as the emperor, are you willing to do this for the sake of the overall situation of the world, for the life and death of these 200,000 troops, for the sake of preventing chaos in the world, and for the sake of the relatives around you?
As a man, do you kowtow in front of my mother?"
There was no hint of threat in Zhao Kai's tone. He told the emperor to kneel down in one sentence. I don't have any tricks for an immortal to kneel down, but I just want to ask you whether you will kneel down today or not?
Zhao Kaixin said:
You still want to kidnap me morally? The backhand is an anti-moral kidnapping. You said I don’t care about the overall situation, so why do you ignore the overall situation and kneel down obediently to me?
It's obvious that you did something wrong, but you still want me to withdraw. What kind of bullshit is this?
Yuan Benxi didn't say anything. Zhao Kai's retaliation made him speechless because he had kidnapped Zhao Kai morally in this way before.
But Queen Zhao Zhi on the side couldn't bear it anymore and roared:
"He is the emperor, the most respected person in the world, and he is also your father. You actually asked him to kneel down to a commoner? Do you know that you are being treasonous, unfaithful and unfilial!
If you want to be emperor, you can do it openly. Why bother humiliating the royal family? Where do you want to place the imperial power? How do the people of the world view the majesty of the royal family? How do you want the people of the world to view you?
You are a scholar after all, is it possible that all you have learned are these unfaithful and unfilial things?"
Queen Zhao Zhi was hysterical, as if it was more uncomfortable for the emperor to kneel down than for her to do so herself.
Zhao Kai said coldly:
"The books I have studied tell me that it is the fault of the father if he does not educate him. The book also says that husband and wife should treat each other with kindness and respect each other as guests. Did you ask him if he did this?"
Zhao Zhi:
"you····
But he is still your father after all? He also has his own difficulties."
Zhao Kai: "Father? The Queen, let me ask you, if today the Qintian Prison wants to kill not me, but your son, and you have the ability to resist, will you watch him being killed by more than a hundred people?"
Immortals siege?
Don't tell me about people who can't help themselves. I've seen many people, such as Xuanyuan Jingcheng and Xu Xiao, who can't help themselves. But have they ever mistreated their children?
Zhao Heng, the king of Huainan, whom all of you look down on, has done many evil things. But he used his own life to buy hereditary neglect for his son. Before he died, he was a real man. You are still far away!
I am not the kind of person who lacks the so-called father's love and seeks some spiritual comfort here. I don't care who you care about. There are many people who care about me and care about me. I don't lack anything. I am here today just for my miserable mother.
Just asking for justice.”
Zhao Kai's words seemed to pierce her heart. Just as Zhao Kai said, if the Qin Tian Prison wanted to kill her own child today, then she would not agree to anything. Since she couldn't do it, then she wouldn't
There is no shame in asking Zhao Kai to do it.
I saw her saying a little lonely:
"Actually, your father doesn't care about you. He used to be in charge of Tianjian..."
Before he finished speaking, a coercive voice sounded:
"enough!"
Zhao Dun, who was sitting on the dragon chair earlier, spoke:
"Zhi'er, Yuan Pu, you go down first and let me talk to him alone!"
Ignoring the two people who were hesitant to speak, Zhao Dun gently waved his hand and asked them to retreat. He could also see that even Yuan Benxi, who had a sharp tongue, could not get past the person in front of him.
After the two of them spoke, they were silent for a while before Zhao Kai said first:
"They're all gone, what trump cards do you have? If it's the guy in the palace who is the same age as Guo, I advise you not to waste your efforts. He has already promised to help me."
Just as Zhao Kai finished speaking, the young eunuch's voice came from the huge palace:
"Ahem, Your Highness, please stop joking. I didn't promise to help you, I just promised you not to help me."
There was also a hint of flattery in the young eunuch's tone. He had clearly seen the previous battle in Tai'an City and had a clear understanding of the strength of Zhao Kai and the people around him.
Especially Zhang Fuyao who appeared later made him even more frightened and even made him feel that he was in danger of death. He couldn't afford to offend Zhao Kai like this.
The young eunuch couldn't help but give Zhao Kai a thumbs up in his heart. It didn't matter that this young man was very powerful. He could speak so well with just one mouth. There was no one else who could make the emperor obey him with just one mouth.
Zhao Kai didn't feel embarrassed when he was exposed. In his opinion, there was no difference between helping him and not helping him.
After the young eunuch finished speaking, he stopped talking and probably left. At this time, only Zhao Kai and Zhao Dun were really left in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Please forgive me, I have some manuscripts saved, but I can’t post too many, otherwise they won’t be recommended. I can wait for them to be published someday, and I can do ten chapters in one day.
