No one likes not having control over their own destiny, and Chu Yuye finally wavered because what he saw was indeed different from what he had imagined.
Things that could not be seen even in the capital could be seen here, and the smiles on the faces of the people were genuine, proving that Ningye had a very high level of popular support.
If he can continue on this path, and if all the people are like him, then the saying "water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it" will become a reality.
Chu Yuye said in a deep voice, "I'll trust you this once, but if I find out you're lying to me, even if it means becoming a vengeful ghost, I'll make sure you never have peace again."
Ning Ye rubbed his hands excitedly, "Your Highness, please rest assured, this is absolutely the best choice you have ever made. Of course, there's still nothing I can do for you right now, but you should start preparing after you return to the capital."
Chu Yuye rolled her eyes dramatically and said, "Are you suggesting I try to win over officials under false pretenses, or are you suggesting I suppress other people's power?"
"Look at what you're saying. Even if I asked you to do it now, it would probably be too late. I think we should start with the common people. Of course, if you think it's possible, you can try to win over some ambitious people. But as for those old bones, I advise you to think twice before you act."
It's hard to imagine that in such a small study, they would actually start discussing a major rebellion or a struggle for the throne.
The more they talked, the more strange Chu Yuye's gaze became towards Ning Ye, because the plan was far too detailed, as if Ning Ye had been thinking about this rebellion day and night.
If Ning Ye knew what Chu Yuye was thinking, he would only cry out that he was wronged. He had seen too many TV dramas and novels about this kind of thing, so it was a piece of cake for him.
After all, with so many classic examples, it's very easy to learn from any of them.
If Chu Yuye hadn't had such a poor start, Ning Ye, having already failed in his duty, could have considered how to instigate conflict among these powerful families, and then let Chu Yuye reap the benefits.
But now the only way is to find new ways from among the people and unite them all together. Even the rebels, including Ning Ye, have their own ideas.
After all, the world is ultimately decided by force. If your fists aren't big enough, no matter how much reasoning you give, it will just be ignored.
Ning Ye was satisfied only after he had discussed with Chu Yuye what to do after returning to the capital, and he stopped talking.
Chu Yuye hesitated and said, "Are you sure this will really work? If it doesn't, then it will backfire."
Ning Ye thought for a moment and said, "The path Your Highness is taking may lead to the deaths of many people, and it may be paved with countless bones, but I believe it is the best solution."
If anyone actually thinks these old foxes who have lived for countless years are easy to deal with, then Ning Ye can only say that they are the real fools.
Never underestimate your opponent, and never assume you have victory in the bag, unless you truly command half a million iron cavalry.
Chu Yuye nodded and said, "I understand. I will definitely keep my promise to you. If you can truly help me succeed, I will be more careful in my dealings with the people in the future."
Ning Ye was already satisfied with receiving such a promise, because he knew that it was impossible to directly create a situation like that of later generations.
For future generations to reach that level, it would require tens of millions of people to follow in their footsteps, to explore and experiment to find the right path, and for these people to disregard their own lives and put everything else aside.
Even if the right path is laid out before us now, truly changing it won't be something that can be accomplished in just one or two generations; it will take a long time.
It's enough to leave a lasting impression when you arrive, and to have a seed that can sprout. If you expect too much, you might end up being the only one disappointed.
Ning Ye took out a jade pendant from his pocket. "Your Highness, you should carry this with you from now on. If anything unexpected happens one day, you can talk to him, and maybe I will know."
Chu Yuye said with a strange look in her eyes, "You wouldn't happen to be a shaman, would you? Do you know anything about these supernatural things?"
"I can't explain this to you clearly right now, so just think of it as some kind of mysterious and unpredictable method. I guarantee that no one else will know about it, but please don't use it carelessly in important situations."
The item Ning Ye took out this time was different from the jade pendant before. This one was disposable and could transmit information no matter how far away it was, but it could only be used once.
Although Chu Yuye was not entirely convinced, she put it away because of Ning Ye's seriousness, and also indicated that she would never easily put the jade pendant away elsewhere.
After discussing everything, the day's business came to an end. Ning Ye immediately sent Chu Yuye back to the room prepared for him. After all, if he stayed in the study any longer, Ning Ye couldn't imagine what kind of treatment he would receive when he returned.
As for why I say that, it's because Xiaoqing's figure has appeared outside the study countless times. It's obvious that she was sent by Lin Qinshu specifically to monitor her.
Ning Ye could only feel heartbroken and remorseful. Was he really not a good person?
Why monitor yourself like this?
Can there really be more trust between people?
A day later, the Turkic prince who had been released finally crossed the border and immediately saw the Grand Preceptor waiting for him. However, the prince was still somewhat apprehensive, as he knew that he was the one who had made the mistake.
When Kunmuri saw that his prince was now almost indistinguishable from a savage, he felt a surge of anger, but also a secret sense of relief.
"Your Highness, welcome back safely. I hope that after this incident, you will no longer be as troublesome as before."
Zhamuhe said, "This matter must not be spread. You must not tell anyone. If I find out that anyone has leaked it, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"And Your Highness, rest assured, they are not the kind of people who don't know their place, and no one would want to be that kind of person."
And so, the delegation, which had been staying there for quite some time, finally left the border, and Li Ruochen understood why. Ning Ye insisted on leaving the border, because even a fool could guess what was going on.
However, Li Ruochen felt mostly pleased, because only someone with extraordinary courage would dare to do such a thing.
