If it weren't for the face of his mother, Feng Qi would not have mercifully let go of the Ye family - the reason of being manipulated by others was far from eliminating the anger of a monarch in the face of traitors.Of course, this angry monarch will not be Feng Qi, but should be Chen Chu, the monarch of Southern Qin.If it weren't for this kinship, Feng Qi would not have come to Nanqin in person, and the person who should really exercise the power of life and death is Chen Chu.After everything was settled, Feng Qi was not so busy, and the house arrest in the palace was also removed, Lin Yue wanted to enter the palace to see Chen Chu, Feng Qi thought for a long time before agreeing.As for why he thought about such a small request for so long, Lin Yue didn't want to know at all.The wise and martial young emperor is sometimes very arrogant.The young man who was released from house arrest was sitting on the dragon chair in the imperial study at this time, staring at a bunch of folds on the imperial case in a daze. ”Under the respectful gaze of the imperial guards, Lin Yue stepped in gracefully.After being imprisoned for a few months, Chen Chu looked good, and he didn't seem to be treated harshly, maybe the people in the palace also thought that the Ye family's rebellion was very likely to end in failure, in order to avoid being implicated in the later settlement of accounts by the Autumn Queen, it was because he never neglected this young man who had temporarily lost his freedom.But after all, he also lost his freedom for a few months, and the young man's eyebrows seemed to be a little confused, and a little lonely, Lin Yue walked to the desk and stood quietly for a long time, and he hadn't come back to his senses."
Chen Chu."
Lin Yue frowned and spoke, "Are you okay?"
”Hearing her voice, Chen Chucai suddenly came back to his senses in a daze, raised his eyes to look at Linyue who was standing in front of him, and a feeling of being in a different world suddenly hit, impacting his mind and the depths of his heart, making him feel moved and throbbed."
Linyue."
He let out a long breath and smiled slowly, like a clear breeze and a bright moon, "You're here." ”Lin Yue sat down on a low couch not far from him, "How is this time going?"
No one embarrasses you, does it?
”"Embarrassed?"
Chen Chu was silent for a moment and pouted, "Of course the palace people don't dare to embarrass me, but the courtiers have already turned against the sky, is this considered embarrassing?"
”"It's quiet outside."
Lin Yue smiled, "Feng Qi solved all the civil strife for you - of course, you don't have to thank him, because he didn't do it for you."
It's just that after the wind and the waves are calm, you have to fill the vacancies of the officials in the court by yourself, and you can only rectify the affairs of the court by yourself. ”Chen Chu was silent for a moment, "Me?
”"That's right."
Lin Yue nodded, "The master of Nanqin Jiangshan is still you, Feng Qi and I plan to return to Fengcang in a few days." ”"Linyue, you haven't forgotten one thing, have you?"
Chen Chu raised his eyes to look at her, his expression was obviously a little strange, "Before leaving Fengcang, I had already said that if I didn't send someone to send a congratulatory gift when the child was full moon, then it would prove that I had an accident, and I gave the rivers and mountains of Southern Qin to His Majesty Emperor Chen, please let him smile." ”Lin Yue frowned, "But you're safe now." ”"But you know, I don't really want to be emperor."
Chen Chu said, "In the past, I didn't want to give the throne to the regent, because once he ascended the throne, with his great ambition, he would never be satisfied with only ruling one country, and it would inevitably cause wars between countries.However, his ability and courage are not strong enough to annex other countries, so I can't let Nan Qin be destroyed in his hands. ”"But now, since His Majesty Emperor Chen has quelled the civil strife in Southern Qin for me, I should give up the rivers and mountains of Southern Qin in return."
His tone was too calm, and it seemed that such a thing as giving up a country was no different from the meaning of buying vegetables in the vegetable market, and it was not worth making too much fuss.Lin Yue said: "Fengqi Pingnan Qin's rebellion is not for your country, otherwise he can directly let you die in the palace silently." ”"Linyue, listen to me."
Chen Chu smiled bitterly, his expression at this time looked a little young and old, and there was a slight sense of vicissitudes between his eyebrows, "Of the nine countries in the world, Fengcang has accounted for eight of them, and the Southern Qin country is independent of the world, how long do you think this country can exist?"
”Lin Yue said lightly: "Feng Qi didn't have the mind to move Nan Qin, as long as he was in one day, Nan Qin would be safe." ”"You're right, of course."
Chen Chu nodded in agreement, "Actually, I also understand that His Majesty Emperor Chen has no ambition to annex the world from beginning to end, if it weren't for the kings of those countries who didn't take the initiative to provoke themselves, Feng Cang would not have taken the initiative to send troops to them, and the current world is still the world of the Nine Kingdoms."
But there is no such thing as ifs in the world, the current situation is like this, Feng Cang has become the overlord of the world, and His Majesty Emperor Chen has become the only emperor in the world, no one will question this. ”Chen Chu got up and poured a cup of tea for Linyue, walked to the soft couch and leaned against the screen, and said in a tired tone: "Even if Emperor Chen has no ambition for the time being, but after the merger of the eight countries, the existence of Nanqin will sooner or later become a thorn in his heart, and ambition will come sooner or later."
Linyue, you don't have to rush to refute, I'm just talking about a possibility in the future. ”Lin Yue frowned lightly, holding the teacup thoughtfully."
The temperament of a young king is not the same as that of a middle-aged king, and after getting used to the taste of dominating the world, he will want to become the emperor who dominates the world, and leave a great achievement in the history books of later generations, and there must not be the slightest flaw in this great achievement."
Raising his hand and rubbing his eyebrows, Chen Chu sighed, "As long as he has such a mind in the future, then he can raise an army to fight by making an excuse, and Nan Qin will still be in his pocket." ”"Chen Chu."
The corners of Lin Yue's mouth twitched, and the gaze that looked at him was strange and unpredictable, "You seem to have become a lot wiser recently, and you can actually predict the future, and you know how to plan for a rainy day." ”Chen Chu ignored her taunt and smiled faintly, "If you don't believe me, then we might as well take a step back and say, even if His Majesty Emperor Chen doesn't have such ambitions in this life, can you guarantee that your son, the next emperor of Feng Cang, doesn't have such ambitions?"
”When Lin Yue heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched again.Thinking far enough, in order to get out of the throne, he probably had never spared so much to exert his eloquence."
You can't guarantee it, and no one can say if it will happen in the future."
Chen Chu directly regarded her silence as speechless, "Whether it is His Majesty Emperor Chen, or your future son who is in charge of the country, only ambition is together, then it will inevitably cause war again, and when the time comes, it will not be the people of Southern Qin who will suffer?"
In this case, why don't I give up the country now, so that the world will be unified, His Majesty Emperor Chen can govern the world with peace of mind, and the people of the world can live a stable life for decades. ”
