Chapter 594: Using Any Means to Achieve the Goal

For a long while, he was in a daze.

Gu Banmei murmured, "Actually, you know, I'm really not a good person. I... I don't have any responsibilities, I don't have any ambitions, and since I was a child, I only like to study poison techniques."

He paused and said, "I don't mean to hurt anyone. I just think this is very interesting. I don't remember what my grandfather, father, mother, or any of my family members looked like. As far as I can remember, I have only had my master, my fellow apprentices, and my fellow apprentices around me..."

"And they often told me what my grandfather was like, what my father was like, saying that I was also a descendant of the royal family and had the opportunity to ascend to the throne... Sometimes I would imagine that they might be very powerful, and I would feel sad when I thought about their experiences. But it wouldn't last long. I don't seem to have such strong emotions. As long as I study poison techniques, I will gradually forget all of this."

"Later, my poison skills became more and more powerful, so my master appointed me as the young leader of the Red Gang, saying that I should inherit the Red Gang, put order out of chaos, restore the orthodoxy of the Great Yan royal family, and then let me inherit the throne..."

"I don't want to be an emperor at all, and I won't be one. But when I say this, my master will get very angry, saying that I have failed my father's expectations, that my grandfather raised me, and that my whole family has lost their lives. If I can't ascend to the throne, they will bear the stigma of being a traitor for the rest of their lives... So I followed my master's words, worked hard to save people, and made a name for myself as a miracle doctor."

"But the longer I have been in the world, the more I understand that what they said is simply fantasy. Your Ye Ye... He is a good emperor. We are really just traitors. We can't do anything, and I don't want to do anything. I don't hate you Ye Ye, but Mei Chenglin was sincere and used his own son to save my father, but his whole family died because of us. Scholars value reputation the most. I must clear his name as a traitor, even if it means whitewashing the situation..."

In fact, he didn't think Xinbao could understand him at all. He just kept it to himself after holding it in for too long. He just kept talking to himself: "I know what I did was wrong, but this is what I have to do. This is my responsibility. But I won't hurt you, and I won't assassinate you... In fact, I'm really tired and unhappy. Every day they say that this is for me, and how many people died to save me. They say that everyone is fighting for me, but I really can't bear this responsibility, and I don't want to bear it anymore..."

His eyes were red, and he buried his face in his arms. After a long while, he continued, "Do you know that they would secretly hurt people, and then send them to me for rescue, so that these people would owe us a favor and could be recruited into the gang in the future, or might be of other use? I feel very uncomfortable, but they say that those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters..."

Tuanzi leaned against the wall, his eyes wide open, listening with all his concentration.

He almost muttered the last words, his voice so slurred that she couldn't make them out clearly.

Xinbao said anxiously: "But this is moral kidnapping!! They are completely moral kidnapping!! You should just ignore them! Or you can tell them that you are a bad person, or you can tell them that you are a waste, then they will ignore you!"

Gu Banmei smiled bitterly but did not answer.

Xinbao thought for a while, and suddenly said seriously: "They are bad guys, right?"

Gu Banmei raised his head, looked at her, and said nothing.

Xinbao said, "You just said that they are bad people who will do anything to achieve their goals... You also said that you are hiding now and your life is very difficult... You also said that you don't want to be the emperor and don't want to deal with Yeye. So, Xinbao wants to know, why do they insist on doing bad things even though it is so difficult and troublesome? Who wants to be the emperor?"

This question was truly an eye-opener for me.

Gu Banmei was completely stunned.

He even opened his mouth slightly in surprise and looked at Xinbao.

Xinbao looked at him seriously.

Gu Banmei opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Yes, they are bad guys, bad guys who will do anything to achieve their goals.

He knew this clearly.

Therefore, it is impossible for them to work so hard for years just for reasons such as loyalty, trust from a benefactor, or respect for someone.

What supports them must be huge interests.

He has royal blood, and his identity is indispensable to them, so they want to coax him to become the young leader. However, he himself is not enthusiastic, but they are so enthusiastic. Is it really for the so-called "merit of following the dragon", or is he just a target from beginning to end? A pretext? Is it that others want to step on him to get to the top? Gu Banmei wiped his face fiercely.

Then Xinbao persuaded him earnestly: "Do you understand? So you send Xinbao home now, turn over a new leaf, tell Yeye about the secret, and then Xinbao will plead for you. In the future, we can study medicine and poison together!"

"Impossible." Gu Banmei whispered, "Sorry, it's really impossible."

He looked up at her and said, "I know they are bad people, but they are also my family. Even if what you said makes sense, Mei Chenglin's entire family died for my father. This is a fact. You don't understand how it feels to bear such an unpayable debt. I've had enough. I don't want to bear this debt anymore. I will repay him with my life. From now on, no one can force me anymore. No matter how much gratitude I have received, it has nothing to do with me."

Xinbao said anxiously: "You... Mei Chenglin did something wrong! He, he is a fool! No, no, he is not stupid, he is the same as these bad guys!! He is also for the benefit! He is a gambler, he just lost the bet! Why should you be responsible!! You should resist bravely! "

Gu Banmei was shocked again.

Every word this little kid says hits the nail on the head.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Gu Banmei wiped his face again.

When he found out that Xinbao could actually understand what he said, he felt a little embarrassed. He lowered his eyes and whispered, "I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."

Xinbao said angrily, "You said sorry again! You keep saying sorry!! What's the use of saying sorry!! You paid off other people's debts, and you owed Xinbao!! You knew you were wrong, but you still arrested Xinbao, this is also a debt! You can't pay it back!"

She waved her little hands, "Xinbao is so cute, so smart, and so pretty, yet she has to suffer such a huge injustice. This is such a huge debt! You will never be able to repay it in this life, the next life, or even a hundred lives! You also made Yeye and his wife worry and feel sad for Xinbao, which adds up to three hundred lives! Anyway, you can't repay it, you always have to owe one, so why don't you just repay Xinbao's debt and ignore their debts? You must be brave and be a deadbeat!!"

Gu Banmei smiled bitterly: "Don't say anything, I have made up my mind. They raised me, and I will give them a life, this is good."

He said nothing more and turned away.

Walking quickly to the door, he asked again, "What would you like to eat in the morning?"

Xinbao was so angry that he exploded: "I don't want to eat anything!! Xinbao is so angry with you!!"

He was silent for a moment, then walked away quickly.
