"That's true, maybe how many people die is not worth caring about at all."
Bai Yunqi's gaze was cold.
As cultivators, besides pursuing powerful cultivation, they would never allow themselves to bully the weak or slaughter living beings at will.
Everyone has their own path, that's true, but once it involves using a large number of lives to improve one's cultivation, it will be considered an evil cultivation.
"Why can't I be the one to ascend the throne! I should have been the one to do so back then!"
King Wen seemed to be grinding his teeth to powder, his hatred overflowing, every word filled with an undeniable resentment.
What he hated was Bai Yunqi's current righteous and awe-inspiring demeanor, just like the words the Empress Dowager had said when she abandoned him.
His eyes were fixed on the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.
What do you mean by "for the sake of the world" and "for the sake of the people"? It's clearly biased!
"Who does he think he is! He kept saying he didn't want the throne, and kept calling his elder brother 'Royal Brother'! But in the end, it was he who ascended the throne!"
"And her! She said she was my mother, that she separated us, and that she gave the throne that should have belonged to me to someone else! She even plotted to make me cripple!"
King Wen roared, his boundless hatred surging forth.
The Empress Dowager wept, wanting to speak but unable to utter a word.
What did she say?
Was she doing it for the world? For the people of Da Yu?
But the truth is that she did not choose this son, but chose another one.
Faced with King Wen's almost frantic questioning.
Bai Yunqi raised an eyebrow: "No problem! Look at you, you're not much better!"
"They betray their own people, are wary of the Mu family, yet still want to use them. If it weren't for someone's help, the Mu family army would probably have suffered heavy losses."
"Tsk tsk tsk... That's really ruthless! If you were the emperor, you'd probably be even more ruthless, and the people wouldn't be able to live in peace and prosperity."
The emperor, who had been calm and indifferent, suddenly looked at Bai Yunqi: "What happened to the Mu family army!"
Bai Yunqi touched his younger sister.
Juanjuan understood and leaned forward to explain, "Someone colluded with the Di Kingdom to try and harm the Mu family army, but fortunately, they were safe and sound thanks to divine intervention."
The emperor's expression immediately turned cold.
"I thought you only intended to attack the palace and me! The Mu family army is the sharpest blade in the Great Yu, protecting the stability of the entire Great Yu. How dare you!"
After so many years as emperor, he had had a lot of trouble, and sometimes he even thought that he was really not suited to be emperor.
He could never bring himself to be cruel to his blood relatives, especially his elder brother who had saved him several times.
From a young age, he never imagined that he would become emperor one day. He always thought that his elder brother was the most suitable. But as he grew up, he found that his elder brother was too radical.
If my elder brother had ascended the throne back then, the territory of the Great Yu might have expanded by now, but the national treasury would certainly be empty and the people would be under a heavy burden.
The national treasury and the people of Daewoo cannot withstand any more depletion from war; recuperation and restoration are of utmost importance.
Being born into royalty means you can't live like children from ordinary families; in some matters, you have to prioritize the greater good.
At his mother's urging, he felt indebted the moment he "betrayed" his elder brother for the sake of the Great Yu and its people.
Even knowing that his elder brother was plotting a rebellion, and that there were even people in the harem who were secretly colluding with his brother, he still went along with it.
You can take action against him.
At present, neither the economy nor the people of Daewoo are afraid of fighting between the two armies again.
Taking action against the Mu family army is unacceptable!
This destroyed the most stable foundation that Daewoo currently has.
The Emperor gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Brother, I will teach the second son well. This throne will be his. You can leave in peace."
He naturally knew who the second prince's biological father was, but the child was still young. He would teach him well in the future, which would be a way of returning the child to his elder brother.
Bai Yunqi turned to look at the Emperor: "He's quite clever."
Bai Yunqi, who had experience in the cultivation world, understood the principle of eliminating problems at their root best.
