Shen Mingzhu and Xiao Xian were both startled. They looked at Xiao Wen. In her previous life, she felt that Xiao Wen was power-hungry and that helping Xiao Ze was actually for himself. In this life, she almost changed her view of him, but later he still
It showed, but this time instead of supporting Xiao Ze, he directly ascended the throne himself.
Generally speaking, she stayed away from Xiao Wen in this life because of the fight in her previous life.
There wasn't much hostility or conflict in this life, but she couldn't let go of all the grudges and become a true friend.
I just didn't expect Xiao Wen to make such a decision now.
"King Chu, there is no need to force it. You just need to revoke the throne and change the title of king. The land of Chu will be yours again. I will not interfere."
Shen Mingzhu knew that Xiao Wen should have been the emperor in the first place, so it was okay to make him a kingdom within a country. She could control it in her lifetime anyway, and she was not a descendant of the Xiao family. Being the empress was actually just a temporary expediency.
She doesn't want to do it for the rest of her life.
Xiao Wen shook his head, "I only need to retain the title of king. Everything in the Chu region originally belonged to the Qin Dynasty, so it will naturally fall under the jurisdiction of your majesty."
Shen Mingzhu nodded and did not refuse again, "The title of the King of Chu is naturally reserved for life, and it will also be passed down to the princes and grandchildren of Chu."
Unexpectedly, Xiao Wen shook his head and said, "I have no intention of getting married, so there will be no more Chu princes and grandchildren."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked. Even Murong Chen, Feng Mingdi and others, who knew that he wanted to retire, were stunned for a moment and couldn't help asking: "Why did the King of Chu say this?"
Xiao Wen smiled slightly, and then took off the crown on his head. Everyone watched helplessly as he took off the crown like his hair, revealing his bare head.
"Ah?" There were exclamations in the hall. Even though these people here were all outstanding people involved, they did not expect Xiao Wen to be like this.
Even if he retires, there is no need to do so. Shen Mingzhu and Xiao Xian are not intolerant people, and they will not worry about him and find ways to eradicate him, so why should he be so decisive?
Shen Mingzhu and Xiao Xian also looked at him, waiting for his explanation.
Xiao Wen looked at their nervous expressions and laughed loudly, "What are your looks like? Do you think I am doing this to protect myself and deliberately do this to myself? Haha, it's so funny."
He laughed for a while, then cleared his throat again, and said seriously: "To be honest with you, I have long had the intention to worship the Buddha before, but I have never been able to make up my mind. In addition, I have not been able to waste so much since I was young.
People's will is why I have to ascend the throne as emperor. If the tyrant continues to be in power, then I will continue to fight to the end. But since the world is stable now, I naturally don't need to force myself, so I can relax and do what I like.
.From now on, I, Xiao Wen, wear bamboo sticks and mango shoes, are free and unrestrained, and naturally feel extremely comfortable. What is there to be sad about? If a poor monk travels to your territory in the future, please do it for your convenience."
As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name.
Murong Chen couldn't help but said: "Now you can become a fellow disciple with Chu Ting. You are more like a disciple of a great monk than him."
Xiao Wen laughed and said: "Your Majesty knows me well and knows that I will definitely go to see Master Huikong."
When everyone saw that he had already made up his mind, it was difficult to persuade him. After all, he already had that kind of mind and was an adult. He knew what he was doing.
