Chapter 138: Do you want to establish another king?
The loneliness of the night can easily amplify people's emotions, and emotion often prevails over rationality.
It was late at night and quiet, not suitable for a heart-to-heart talk, especially tonight when she was still waiting for him to fall asleep before taking "him" to do something.
Xie Yuchuan suddenly asked a question that stumped Tu Huan.
The electric pen that was spinning between my fingers suddenly stopped.
Tu Huan didn't say anything for a long time. After a long time, she relaxed her shoulders and leaned back in the chair. Her eyes flashed slightly, and the dialog box directly connected to the voice call function and was placed on the desk.
I took a bag of chocolate beans from the snack rack under the table.
I put them into my mouth one by one, and the sweet fragrance filled my lips and teeth. I don’t know how long it took.
Xie Yuchuan, who had been staying overnight outside the Qingzhou Post Station in Daliang for a long time, felt depressed.
The dark light deep in his eyes grew dimmer and dimmer.
He shouldn't have asked this question.
Xie Yuchuan's thick eyelashes concealed the regret in his heart.
"Xie Yuchuan?"
The household god suddenly called his name, and Xie Yuchuan opened his eyes instantly, his dark pupils filled with starlight.
"Xie Yuchuan: The household deity asks for your advice."
Tu Huan looked at a painting hanging on the wall and said softly, "Xie Yuchuan, in your eyes, what kind of person is qualified to be a king you can trust?"
Xie Yuchuan was stunned.
All night long, countless messy thoughts came and went in his mind. Some of the thoughts were extremely divergent. He even thought about the ancestors of the Xie family a hundred years ago and why they helped Taizu change the dynasty.
As she expected, Xie Yuchuan on the other side fell silent.
After Tu Huan finished speaking, she gave him enough time to think about the answer and slowly poured him another cup of hot water.
When she finished one bag and opened another, she finally heard Xie Yuchuan's voice.
"Yu Heng has never thought about this question."
Tu Huan nodded slightly, probably guessing the answer. Questioning the majesty of imperial power was probably not easy for them, the ancient people.
"But someone like Xiahou Jie certainly can't make you surrender, right?" Tu Huan said lightly.
There was silence on the other side again.
After a long while, Xie Yuchuan said in a low voice: "Yes, he is not worthy of my Xie family's loyalty."
Tu Huan was at her desk, folding a paper crane from a square piece of paper to while away the time. A low, slow voice echoed in Xie Yuchuan's ears, "What kind of emperor do you soldiers on the frontier like?"
As smart as Xie Yuchuan was, he seemed to sense that the household god was answering his question in another way from what he was saying.
He thought about it carefully and replied, "Be close to virtuous ministers, stay away from sycophants, and be a wise ruler with great talent and strategy."
"Hmm." Tu Huan replied softly. Just as she was folding her wings, she asked again, "What kind of king do the civil officials want?"
Xie Yuchuan narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.
"What kind of emperor do the people of Daliang want?"
"What kind of king does a treacherous minister like?"
"What kind of monarch does the enemy country like in Daliang?"
…
Every time Tu Huan asked him a question, Xie Yuchuan's heart was in turmoil.
The answers to every question posed by the household god were in the ancient books and classics he had read in his youth. He knew the correct answers, but when facing the household god, he couldn't even speak them out loud.
The voice of the household god was soft and gentle, each word coming out clearly from his lips and teeth, but he could sense another emotion hidden behind those questions from that tone without any judgment.
Calm and watching, so calm that it's scary.
Xie Yuchuan didn't quite understand that feeling.
Tu Huan pulled the tail of the paper crane, and saw its wings fluttering. She said calmly, "You should be able to sense that I am more pleased to exorcise the evil spirit for Huaihua than to search for treasure in the secret passage of Xishan Mountain."
"Yes." This is also the question he has been thinking about tonight.
Since the two were bound together by "fate", Tu Huan did not hide it from him, "In the eyes of heaven, the merit of helping Huaihua is greater than the jade seal in your hand."
When Xie Yuchuan heard this, although he had some guesses in his mind, he was still slightly surprised by the words of the family god.
He was silent for a long time, "The life and death of an ordinary citizen is more precious than the imperial seal of a country."
"Almost." She and the system hadn't expected this.
At least the trace of national destiny of Gaojia Village lies not in the jade seal, but in the locust flowers.
Xie Yuchuan gazed up at the starry sky, with his hand on his chest. The jade seal under his palm didn't seem as hot as before.
Thinking of his current situation, Xie Yuchuan seemed to have unloaded a lot of burdens and felt much more relaxed despite being tense.
He asked the household god for help, but the god did not give him a direct answer to the question he asked.
But he seemed to have gotten an answer.
Just when Xie Yuchuan thought the House God was subtly giving him a "hint" to let him figure it out on his own, Tu Huan changed the subject and talked about the question he had asked earlier, saying with a smile:
"Why, now that you have the imperial seal, do you want to establish yourself as king and rebel?"
“Cough cough cough cough——”
A series of coughs startled Xie Yuchuan, who choked on his own saliva several times.
"Xie Yuchuan: !!!!!!!!!"
"Xie Yuchuan: !!!!!!!!!"
"Xie Yuchuan: !!!!!!!!!"
The phone dinged and swiped the screen——
Tu Huan's muffled laughter echoed in Xie Yuchuan's ears, and his face and ears turned red instantly. He didn't know whether it was because of being teased by the family god or because of choking from coughing.
Tu Huan is good at playing pranks.
After Xie Yuchuan calmed down, she retrieved information about the jade seal from the system.
The jade seal is indeed a real jade seal.
Because the jade seal appeared, she also gained 3,000 energy.
No wonder after coming out of the secret passage in Xishan, she always felt that something was wrong with Xie Yuchuan.
Xie Yuchuan's excited reaction showed that this matter must have crossed his mind!
Tu Huan: Hehe.
She pulled the system out of its slumber and asked, "After protecting Xie Yuchuan to his exile destination, are there any other missions like rebellion or regime change?"
system:【……】
Tu Huan: "No?"
System: [Not yet triggered, unknown.]
Xie Yuchuan didn't dare to reply to the words of the family god.
Even though this thought did flash through his mind a few times, he did not dare to speak rashly in front of the gods.
But he didn't deny it either.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to ask the household god for advice tonight.
Although he was used to his family god's unconventional character, Xie Yuchuan was still shocked when he was asked so openly whether he wanted to rebel.
If there are other gods in the world, I wonder if they are as straightforward as the Xie family god.
Tu Huan didn't hear Xie Yuchuan's voice for a long time and couldn't help laughing.
It's not surprising that Xie Yuchuan has this idea.
On the computer screen, under the question "If you accidentally obtained the Imperial Seal, would you hand it over?", Tu Huan watched many people's answers:
"If someone else gets it, I will persuade him to hand it over. I got the imperial seal, it was granted by heaven!"
"I got it by my own ability! It's mine! Even if I die, it will still be mine!"
"It's just a piece of stone, isn't it? Look at how ignorant you are! I only allow you to take a look~"
"I have already decided on a reign title. Where are my dear ministers?"
"I really didn't take it!!!"
“Haha ...——”
Tu Huan looked for a while and found that everyone was in a pretty good spirit these days!
Xie Yuchuan pondered for a moment, and was about to reply -
Tu Huan looked at the crazy talk on the computer screen and muttered, "Uh...if you really want to change the dynasty, it's not impossible."
Xie Yuchuan:!!!
