Chapter 196 Father and Son



"Unreliable, how can it be unreliable? I don't think there's anything unreliable about this matter. Isn't it clearly stated in the letter?

The emperor personally came forward to persuade the native saint and even explained how to contact her."

Nan Cang didn't say anything, but Nan Wuyou spoke first.

Nan Wu Ju frowned and said, "That's clear, but how likely do you think it is to be true?

The emperor went to Dahuang County alone. What could he do to convince the natives?

On the contrary, Dahuang County is almost under the influence of King Qi. King Qi has been running it for so many years, and even the so-called saint seems to have been supported by King Qi.

Although the emperor is the Son of Heaven of the Qin Dynasty, the locals have always been in awe of the power and prestige of the two tribes, and they value profit over righteousness.

The emperor neither had the power to threaten the natives nor was it likely that he would bring a large amount of wealth. So how could he convince the natives?

We can even betray the King of Qi and make the native camp formed by the King of Qi turn to us."

When he said this, Nan Wuyou couldn't help but frown.

He looked subconsciously at the trusted guard who delivered the letter.

The latter quickly shook his head and said, "I don't know either. We were all guarding outside the door at the time and don't know the specific situation.

After that, the girl just asked me to deliver a message, and I came as fast as I could. As for the rest... I don't know."

Hearing him say this, Nan Wu Ju's expression became even more solemn.

Nan Wuyou also frowned, but then he said unconvincedly: "Brother, what you said is very reasonable, but I still feel that it does not make sense. If it is true as you said, then the emperor has been completely deceived by the natives. Isn't it dangerous now?"

"That's what I'm worried about, but this is just a worst-case scenario.

It is also possible that although the natives are pretending to be submissive, they do not intend to offend the imperial court."

Nan Wu Ju frowned and sighed, "I hope I'm overthinking it."

Then he looked up and said to Nan Cang, "Sir, the most urgent matter is the emperor's safety. How about I lead an elite force to Dahuang County first?

After meeting His Majesty, everything will become clear."

Nan Cang remained silent, but Nan Wuyou shook his head again and said, "But if this is true, wouldn't we be missing out on the opportunity to fight?"

"Don't worry. Soldiers worry about defeat before they worry about victory. Moreover, this matter concerns the safety of the emperor, so stability should be the priority!"

In fact, he was not only worried about the emperor, but also about Nan Luoying.

He is usually quite steady, but although he said that stability is the first priority, he couldn't help feeling a little impatient in his heart.

Nan Cang still didn't speak, but glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally.

On the other side, Nan Wuyou couldn't help but frown.

Although he always felt that this was not the right way to handle things, among the three brothers, he was not only the youngest but also had the least combat experience.

Although he was one of the Nine Ministers, he was previously responsible for either the security of the capital or the guarding of the palace. He was far inferior to his second brother Nanwu Bu and his eldest brother Nanwu Ju in leading troops into battle.

That's why Cao Zishuo looked down on him.

He himself is also a little insecure.

But at this moment, Nan Cang looked at him and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Nan Wu Ju and Nan Wu You were both stunned.

"grown ups?"

Nan Wu Ju couldn't help but speak, but Nan Cang glanced at him and said calmly: "Wu Ju, among the three of you brothers, you have fought with me the most and worked the hardest.

I also know that you have been imitating me, always seeking stability and seriousness in everything, but you are you and I am me.

Being stable is fine, but the purpose of being stable is to wait for the opportunity.

It's right to worry about defeat before thinking about victory, but if you don't dare to win when the opportunity comes, the opportunity will be gone in a flash..."

"this……"

Nan Wu Ju was stunned and looked at Nan Cang in confusion, "Sir, what do you mean..."

"What matters is not my opinion, but you yourself."

Nan Cang shook his head, looked at his eldest son, and sighed secretly in his heart.

His eldest son is the most like him among his three sons, which is why he values ​​Nan Wu Ju the most.

But gradually, he became a little worried, because Nan Wu Ju was so much like him.

But when it is taken to the extreme, it loses its essence.

Nan Cang himself was known for his steady use of troops, and his three sons were also influenced by him and tended to use troops in a steady manner.

Even the eccentric Nan Wuyou is actually the same at heart, such as his previous argument with Cao Zishuo.

The difference between the two is that one takes risks and the other plays it safe.

Cao Zishuo always thought that the enemy might not expect that I would succeed.

Nan Wuyou, on the other hand, had a lot of thoughts and was always denying all kinds of attacks.

But his stability is to win through stability.

Stability is not the goal, winning is.

It's like a tiger lurking in the grass, not to protect itself, but waiting for its prey to relax and then strike fiercely.

But Nan Wu Ju has been deliberately imitating his steadiness and composure.

This is not to say that Nan Wu Ju is not good at using troops. In fact, he even does better than him in some aspects.

But he always felt that he had fallen into a bottleneck at this moment. If he could not break through, he would probably stop here in his life.

Even he couldn't do anything about it.

I could only say, "Don't be afraid. The other day, when I was talking with Your Majesty, Your Majesty mentioned something that I thought was quite insightful. You might as well try to understand it."

Nan Wu Jue's expression was solemn. He did not dare to neglect it and quickly bowed to receive instruction. "Please give me your instruction, sir!"

Nan Cang looked a little dazed when he heard this, as if he had thought of something. Then he looked at him intently and said slowly, "Those who learn from me will live, those who imitate me will die!"

Nan Wu Ju was shocked when he heard this. He suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Nan Cang blankly, not knowing what to say.

Nan Wuyou next to him was also a little dazed and equally touched. He seemed to understand, but not quite.

Nan Cang only heard: "Don't you have something to say? How do you think we should deal with it now?"

Nan Wuyou was stunned when he heard this. When he looked up, he saw his father looking at him with a hint of expectation, and he couldn't help feeling excited.

He quickly calmed himself down and bowed solemnly, saying, "Sir, I think your worries are justified, but I have something else in mind."

"Oh, what did you think of?"

Nan Cang smiled slightly, with a rare hint of encouragement in his eyes.

He wondered in his heart whether his eldest son had fallen into the current bottleneck because he was too strict and gave him too little encouragement.

Sure enough, the effect was good. Nan Wuyou was encouraged and his courage increased greatly.

He no longer had any concerns and said, "Sir, I am thinking of the time when Your Majesty first came to my Nan family.

The child couldn't help but wonder, what did His Majesty have at that time?

If we don't say we have nothing, we're almost there, and even the throne is at risk at any moment, but why did our Nan family still let him convince us?"

Hearing him say this, Nan Wu Ju couldn't help but frown, as if he wanted to refute, but then he closed his mouth.

Nan Wuyou continued, "If my Nan family still claims that it was due to your loyalty to the Great Qin, then how did Your Majesty convince those noble families to endorse him?"
