Chapter 523 (1/2)

”I, I ask myself...”

The old emperor opened a pair of muddy old eyes and looked at the two gorgeous teenagers standing side by side in front of him. His eyes gradually flashed tears.

Thoughts drifted away and became messy and erratic.

Who hasn't been a teenager?

He also walked side by side with Zhao Chengan sisters to punish corrupt officials. Speaking of such righteous words, he was as sonorous and powerful as Xie.

He was as young and energetic as Xie Heng, instructing mountains and rivers and wholeheartedly seeking the well-being of all the people.

But later, after all, it was a strange road. Swords and swords faced each other, so they could only fight for life and death.

For so many years, the old emperor lived in the illusion created by all the ministers tacitly. After killing the king and seizing the throne, he was both excited and hard to sleep and eat. In order to cover up the truth, he simply killed the Duke of Heng and all the ministers and good generals of the Manchu Dynasty, leaving only a group of ”good birds” at the helm.

Later, the soldiers of neighboring countries invaded the border and attacked cities and territories. They didn't even have a cadre who could fight. As a result, Yan people couldn't make a living. All the ministers could only persuade peace. They all said: why do you have to fight with blood and tears if you can cede two cities and take some gold, silver and jewelry?

As a result, the surrounding countries watched as the strongest and largest Dayan among the countries became a land cutting compensation, and the ministers were weak countries that bent their knees and laughed. All of them turned their eyes to the envoy of Dayan, who had been holding back for decades. In recent years, the war on the four sides of the border continued. At first, the old emperor felt that he could not hang his face when he lost the war. Later, he asked for more peace, as if he didn't feel anything. However, Dayan's land is becoming less and less, the National Treasury is also hollowed out, and the national power is declining year by year. Everyone knows it without saying a word.

In this way, there are also treacherous and cunning villains who boast in front of the old emperor for three days and two times, ”the emperor has endured humiliation and burden for the people of Dayan and worked hard. He is really an immortal Mingjun. He will be immortal in the future and respected by future generations!”

”I'm all for the people of Dayan... I ask myself, in the past 20 years, I've never been more than half selfish. I've worked hard day and night for the peace of Dayan. It's difficult to sleep and eat!” the old emperor gradually calmed down and sobbed: ”it's God who doesn't help me that makes Dayan so many disasters and difficulties. It's God! God doesn't help me!”

”Keep this nonsense and kneel down in front of Zhao's ancestors!”

Xie Heng broke the wind with his sword. In the blink of an eye, he chopped at the old emperor.

”General Xie!” Wang Liang panted and ran up to the old emperor, holding the chopping sword in both hands.

The old internal servant knelt down and begged, ”in any case, the emperor is the emperor and the monarch of Dayan. You can't do this... General Xie!”

The people around him became more and more quiet.

They never thought that Xie Heng could even attack the old emperor so skillfully.

”I paid for Dayan, you......” the old emperor's eyes were as wide as brass bells. He coughed and almost fainted on the spot, and angrily scolded: ”what do you know, rebellious subjects and thieves?”

Seeing this, Wang Yichang said with a white face: ”don't tell me whether the princess Changning in your mouth is true or false. It's too much fun for you two to subvert the imperial power just by relying on a cloud chasing order with unknown origin! What's more, if the princess Changning is still alive, why don't you identify it yourself? Can you take the old events 20 years ago seriously by talking about them? It's ridiculous!”

Seeing this, all the ministers spoke in succession to defend the old emperor and testify that the succession to the throne was the last order of the former Emperor and the will of the people.

These people shrink their necks faster than anyone else in front of the sword. If they are good at arguing and lying with their eyes open, they are very powerful.

The old emperor even killed himself. He was dedicated to his country and had no more than half selfishness. Naturally, these ministers felt more and more that they were clean and honest officials. In the face of the murderous King Xie Xiaoyan, they could not break their character.

People cheat and ghosts cheat a lot. Even they cheat themselves.
