Chapter 649: The Day of the Grand Ceremony



The small hermit hides in the city, the great hermit hides in the rivers and lakes.

This statement is not without reason.

So even so, Qi Peng was still unwilling to leave where he was before, and even more unwilling to leave the environment inside the Qin Imperial Palace to work in a new place.

Only those who know each other's ins and outs can be considered steady.

If you don't know the background, how can you dare to travel freely?

For some reason, he suddenly felt concerned. Although it was unfair to the child, he could still raise her as his own, even though she was so young.

The small ones are very cute.

"Your Majesty, let me ask you one more question. Can you leave Youxi to my care?"

This question made people feel that something was amiss. Of course, Zhao Xin also noticed it, but the terrifying strength of this child made Zhao Xin feel that he could not let this person take the child away.

If this child is really pushed to the limit, who knows what kind of joke will happen.

"What do you have?"

"I own the entire Soochow."

"But now, you haven't shown the dawn of your Eastern Wu, nor have you showcased the natural and cultural heritage of your region. All you've shown is your current state of being penniless, surviving in the midst of the Qin Empire. How can you expect others to obey you and be loyal to you?"

This question is heartbreaking.

"Wait a few days, just a few days. When I return to the palace and receive my own crown, Dongwu will be mine, and the former emperor will abdicate. Then I will be able to take care of this child. As long as I can wait."

"But I can't."

Today, the conditions of the Qin Dynasty are many times better than those of the Eastern Wu, and its territory is also the largest.

Even if we divide it into four areas surrounded by the three armies, the desert and the three areas nearby are still incomparable.

Although Eastern Wu jumped to second place, the territorial gap between it and the Qin Dynasty was still huge.

"How can you be so obsessed with a child now? Besides, it doesn't matter who this child belongs to. He has neither the strength nor the brains. What's the point of recalling her back to your country? Just to make her another target for your guns, right?"

“…”

This is indeed true. This kid has neither brains nor ability now. If he enters the palace, he can only keep himself safe.

In addition, Dongwu was indeed facing internal troubles. It was very serious and the child could not be protected. There was no telling when he would be kidnapped.

"So you should leave this child in my Great Qin first. When you have stabilized the territory of Dongwu, you can come and take the child away."

"It depends on whether she is willing to follow you. If she is, I will not stop her. If she is not willing, let her recuperate in Daqin. You can come back after you have dealt with the internal troubles in Dongwu."

This is fair. You can't let this child go to your place and suffer.

"Your Majesty, what you said makes sense, so I won't say much. Let her recuperate well in Daqin and wait for me. I'll return to the city in a couple of days and take her back after I get the crown."

He was talking big, but right after he finished speaking, the servant pulled him aside. His expression didn't seem very good.

Anyway, the slight change was just a glare. At that time, the servant was also furious. He did not expect that His Highness would agree to this request so readily.

"Your Majesty, do you know why we came here? Even if you want to go back now, everyone in this palace is chasing you. If you go back, you will be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth."

"Didn't we say that we would sneak back during the coronation ceremony, take the crown, and become the newest emperor of Dongwu? Besides, the imperial edict has already been issued. If you go back now, wouldn't it be..."

A sheep walking into the tiger's mouth!

"Even if Your Highness stays here now, it won't make any difference. There are definitely many people surrounding this crown. Do you think I can snatch it by myself?"

"Besides, if we don't fight, how will we know that Dongwu also has some troops? Besides, those people you are fighting against in Dongwu can be withdrawn. Don't make me say it again."

To put it bluntly, he wants to fight back on his own, and then take the crown back. After he becomes the king, he will take this girl back. I don't know what's so good about this girl. After entering the cave, I don't know whether I can come out. Why does he care so much about this child?

He had never seen this before.

"Your Majesty, you have changed."

"When have I not changed?"

This question is really choking.

But the servant understood that if he wanted the emperor to make further progress, he had to kill the child as cruelly as possible and not let him be trapped in prison.

If we come back, we will be used against others, which is absolutely unacceptable.

Besides, it is not only not allowed, but it is impossible. He is the only hope of the entire Dongwu. He cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of others, and he cannot be killed.

If he was killed, Dongwu would be in chaos. The emperor issued the edict just for him, how could he be so ungrateful as to push the matter onto others!

Although he wanted the crown more and more strongly, if he rushed over rashly now, not only would he not get the crown, but he would also be framed.

He didn't want to see this result, and all of this made her restless, and it was only because of that girl. So he could only secretly kill this girl.

"I don't want you to do anything shady, and I don't want you to kill this child because of me. You know what I'm thinking. You know you've been around me for so many years. I'm both good and evil. You've heard that you shouldn't push me too far. You'll naturally understand how terrifying I am later."

He is very angry.

Very angry.

He didn't want his men to act recklessly, and he didn't want his men to chase after the little girl like crazy.

One of his beloved pets was killed by them in this way.

The reason was to prevent him from having any second thoughts and to let him focus on state affairs. The previous emperor was very caring towards all his brothers, but he only wanted him to quickly finish the contents of each book and lesson, and then take the exam.

The purpose was to issue an edict to him, making him the greatest king in Dongwu.

This is not happiness, on the contrary it will be suppressed by everyone and disappear.

How could someone like him, who had been suppressed by everyone, possibly turn around and become the king? It was impossible not to say, and it was common for him to be oppressed to the point of suffocation. He kept wondering why he had become like this, and what he hoped and pursued turned into nothing little by little.
