The Star Picking Hall is very high, towering into the sky, Xu Le walked in the streets and alleys of Kyoto, looking at the building overlooking the world, and always subconsciously wondered why the countless bloody rebellions of the empire have never harmed this seemingly slender and fragile symbolic building, and the previous emperors who live at the top are accompanied by the stars at night, why they have not been able to cultivate a broad mind, and more importantly, where did the empire get the technology many years ago to protect the environment there Standing behind the internal officer, feeling the gentle upward movement of the suspended elevator, because of the relationship of too long, he has been silently thinking about these things, until the elevator door opened silently, and the screen painted with golden sunflowers came into view, and he suddenly woke up.
Emperor Huaifu sat on the wall of the couch, wearing a well-fitting black and purple robe, and a belt decorated with round stones was tightly tied around his waist, and the stone circle with straight gray hair tied behind his head highlighted the solemn and solemn taste.
Xu Le walked behind him and said, "Thank you for yesterday's incident." ” "You" Waifucha turned around slowly, looked at him indifferently and said: "This is the education you received in the Federation In my impression, the Federation has always thought that our Imperial people are barbaric orcs, so why did they teach you not to use honorifics in the face of your own father" Xu Le remained silent, did not explain anything and did not want to refute anything.
"What did you say yesterday when you met with those shit," Wyff looked at him mockingly, and said, "They really want you to be emperor and then make a mess of this empire after I die" Xu Le's eyes lowered slightly, and he said in a low voice: "The current empire is messy enough. ” Huaifu Chali frowned slightly, looked at him coldly, and suddenly said: "Since you don't bend your waist for power, since you hate the smell of the palace, why do you want to meet those wastes or do you say that you are also moved by this waste and want to take over everything in my hands" The first two sentences are the content of the conversation at the wild grave outside the palace wall, Xu Le slowly raised his head, calmly looked into his eyes, and said, "I never thought I was a waste. ” "Cowardly and cowardly, with brute strength, but unable to carry anything on his shoulders, he can see the whole universe in front of him, but he has to deal with those rat-like waste, looking at his father's back like a thief, this kind of person is not waste, so who is waste" Wyfu almost reprimanded him unceremoniously: "I don't know what you learned from Nasri, even his arrogance." ” "True arrogance lies in not fearing, and nothing else."
Xu Le was silent for a moment and then replied: "If it is courage to say ugly things in front of you, then when you took the thorn strip and slapped me, I had already said enough swearing. ” As if recalling the extremely unpleasant picture of the year, Huai Fucha slowly frowned, remembering that it was he who had smoked the little guy in front of him covered in blood, and ordered him to be killed, but he didn't know that the other party was the only bloodline he left in this universe.
As soon as he thought of this, Huai Fucha became even more angry, but he was afraid that even he himself would not be able to tell where this anger came from, from being deceived and from losing face, in short, he slowly straightened up, with the unique indifference of a king, squinted at Xu Le, and said: "You're old, I don't want to educate you anymore, and I don't bother to talk to you about responsibilities and anything like that, but you have to remember that you have the blood of the Hibiscus Huai clan in your veins, you are my son, you are my courtier, and you must maintain the respect you deserve for me."
"In the scope of thinking that I can accept, there is no such thing as a monarch and a minister, a father and a son."
Xu Le looked at him and said, "So please don't try to use this to deter me, since you don't want to kill me, then don't talk to me in this tone." ” Since ascending to the Star Picking Palace, no one has dared to speak to the emperor in this tone, even if he relied on his favorite Huaicao poem the most, Huai Fucha's eyes narrowed more and more sharply, staring at Xu Le's face gloomily.
Suddenly, he raised his right hand and slowly stroked his gray hair, his expression changed from the calm before the storm to the usual indifference, and said with undisguised mockery: "Yes, a fool like you will only eat Pabul's set. ” Xu Le slowly clenched his fists, not to attack, but to control the emotions in his heart, he didn't want to meet the man in front of him at all, although the other party was his biological father in terms of blood, the reason why he didn't want to was not because of cowardice or anything else, but simply didn't want to.
Huai Fucha quietly looked at the corners of his pursed lips, and for some reason his emotions loosened again, and after a pause, he said indifferently: "I helped you this time, but if you kill the traitor of Qi Dabing, even if it is Liangqing." ” Hearing this, Xu Le was a little puzzled, he knew very well the empire's infiltration of those so-called rebel organizations, and the harvest back then was the bloodiest proof, so he didn't think that the resistance organization would pose any threat to the imperial family under the leadership of Qi Dabing.
"Don't underestimate any enemy, not even those who have died before you."
Huai Fucha waved his hands slightly, with the black and purple sleeves flying, behind him, he walked to the side of the fence with an expressionless face, and said in a deep voice: "That is lucky to have the blood of our royal family, and has the necessary surname traits to succeed, in my opinion, if he hadn't met you, he should have a good future." ” Xu Le silently followed him to the side of the railing, thinking of Qi Dabing's steel-like announcements in the room, thinking of those stormy statements of evolution, he couldn't help frowning slightly, thinking that if that person was given a chance, maybe the other party might really be able to grow into a character like Pabur.
"It's just that people who have the ability are often prone to think too highly of themselves, and people who think too highly of themselves are easy to die, because they always feel that they are destined to die so easily."
Huai Fucha walked slowly to the railing, stretched out his left hand to caress the densely textured railing, looked at the white clouds floating outside the building, and said with a calm face: "However, the real destiny of the world, there is only me in the entire universe, since childhood, countless people want to kill me, but I am still alive." ” "As a king, I should have immortal confidence, so I never worried that the warships of the Federation could collapse this star-picking temple, the stars in the universe shifted, and the clouds flowed, but this palace has always existed, and I don't even see any possibility of its extinction."
Huaifu looked at the white clouds flowing outside the bar, looked at the place where the bloodstained thorns fell, looked at the clouds where his brother had fallen, and continued after a long silence: "Carefully calculated, I don't have many regrets in this life, except that Li Pifu died too early, and when I heard that he was dead, I suddenly realized that I could no longer find an opponent, you can understand that loneliness."
Xu Le looked at the king's somewhat gloomy back, and couldn't help but think of some special literary descriptions in Schiller's novels, but he couldn't laugh at anything.
The same sentence and wording, from different people's mouths but have completely different effects, if it is a gentleman who is on the high and sighs lonely, it will only make people feel bored and disgusting, but the man who said this sentence is the lord of the Zuotian Star Domain, the most powerful man in this universe, it seems so natural.
Huaifucha's face had a faint taste of self-deprecation, and he sighed: "In the eyes of many people, in your eyes, the war in front of you is thrilling, and in my eyes it is just a game.
"After my father and the emperor left, I waited here for Li Pifu for 20 years, but he hid by the lake and refused to come out.
Now that he's dead, where can I find an opponent?"
Xu Le raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "But many people have died. ” "People will die, Li Pifu will die, I will die, you will die, people's fate is death, and the reason why people live is because they want to live to the end."
Huai Fucha turned to look at him and said, "I am the emperor, and I am not qualified to have a surname, since you want to go to the boring surname, I don't bother to stop you again." ” "But you must remember that no matter where you go or what you do, you will have my blood in you, and your glory and depravity will be in the name of Hibiscus Huai."
"Even if you die, you must find a way to die that doesn't disgrace me."
On the way out of the palace, Xu Le has been silently thinking about this seemingly meaningless conversation in the Star Picking Palace, for the king who has been alone in the palace for decades, he did not have much emotion and sympathy, just thinking that it is clear that this king has a vision and determination that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, and may even have a strong strength that is definitely not inferior to Li Pifu, but because of the obsession that makes him unhappy, he waited for a lifetime but only waited until Li Pifu died of old age, How much meaning does this kind of life have, and where is the meaning of one's own life?
Mu En was waiting for him outside the palace gate, he looked at the underworld boss who was still wearing black fur with some surprise, squinted his eyes, and asked, "I heard that you are now a special officer of the intelligence agency."
"The level is very low, although His Royal Highness takes care of it, but you also know that the ministries are full of nobles and even royal families, and it is not easy for me to be promoted as a commoner."
Mu En didn't seem to see the emotion in Xu Le's eyes, smiled and walked side by side with him under the shade of the tree, and said, "It seems that you are not ready to stay in the palace."
"Hmm.
I'm not used to a lot of the details of life here.
Xu Le glanced back at the officials who were still kneeling respectfully on the ground at the palace gate, and said, "For example, this kind of picture." ” He and Mu En are friends in the rain of bullets, although they have lived and died together on the valley road south of Tianjing Star, and have buried the bodies of many resistance fighters together, but according to his surname, he still can't let go of Mu En's betrayal.
However, now he has become a person who is not qualified to say his position, and naturally he is not qualified to criticize others, or he has lost some kind of confidence.
Mu En keenly sensed his true emotions, and said with a slight self-deprecation: "I am not the son of His Majesty the Emperor. ” Saying such a thing in the empire is undoubtedly a great crime, the speaker can directly wash his neck, and at the same time summon a group of women and children to wash his neck, but Mu En said it indifferently, and Xu Le also understood, his steps paused slightly, shook his head and patted his shoulder with a smile.
