Nangong Feiran said unequivocally: "If you just surrender to your brother, you can still have a peaceful life, and even this war can be avoided." He said with a slight sneer.
Zha Xilong shook his head and said slowly: "This is not a long-term solution..." Then he mounted his horse and followed his tribe.
Nangong Feiran looked at the back of this humble highness, thoughtfully.
Yes, surrendering to his brothers, whether it is Tobel Taha or Yakuzele, is not a long-term solution. There are many tribes on the grassland, and there will always be various battles, and there is only one more powerful beam.
, only then can one secure his position as the overlord of the grasslands.
Nangong Feiran shook his head thoughtfully and walked towards Hukou Pass. He understood that Tashi Longbu’s statement was reasonable, but it was not a long-term solution. Of course, he understood that Tashi Longbu, as the Great Khan of the Grassland,
His son naturally hopes that he can also become a great Khan. He has seen too much of this kind of struggle.
It was for this reason that Yakuzel killed his biological father who gave birth to him and raised him. And speaking more closely, the princes around him were also like this. The eleventh prince Nangong Quanhe is the best example.
In order to become the leader of a country, he would not hesitate to betray the country and seek support from other countries. As for the other princes, although they are responsible on the surface, who secretly has no party affiliation?
Nangong Feiran had no doubt that if there was a sudden coup in the palace, those princes would kill their fathers and establish themselves as kings without hesitation. Nangong Feiran sighed unconsciously, thinking that maybe this was the person who was born into the royal family.
Be sad.
How many people can resist the temptation of power and money? He once had the idea of leading soldiers and horses to dominate the world. It was only as he grew older and gained more experience that he realized how naive he was at the beginning. What's more,
He is now accompanied by his wife and children, and feels that such a life is indeed very satisfying.
"What are you thinking about?" Yuchi Pingting silently walked to Nangong Feiran. Seeing his solemn expression, she knew that he had something on his mind. She also heard about what happened this time.
"It's nothing." Nangong Feiran said calmly: "I thought I could lead the soldiers home, but who knew something like this would happen again."
"Eh, this doesn't seem to be the original you." Yuchi Pingting said jokingly: "I heard from your subordinates that you used to be happy without fighting. You were always looking forward to fighting and winning. When did you start to get so tired of the battlefield?
Already?" Yuchi Pingting's smiling eyes flashed with charming colors.
Nangong Feiran smiled slightly and said: "Well... probably since Madam, you came to me." Nangong Feiran said the truth. This woman, in this year, invisibly changed his mind.
A lot.
On this day, Nangong Feiran has been playing with Mo Mo. He is not worried at all about General Li and others who are going to fight.
As Zhaxi Longbu said, the leaders of other tribes of the Ana family will not send troops without permission, and the army directly under Tubeetaha is determined to be unable to compete with his 30,000-strong army. The victory or defeat is very close.
Obviously.
In the evening, Nangong Feiran's men came to report that Nangong Quanhe wanted to see Nangong Feiran.
Nangong Quanhe was imprisoned in an abandoned courtyard. After all, he was once a prince and his treatment was very good. However, his hands and feet were bound by iron chains and he could only move around in the room. The courtyard was surrounded by guards.
Nangong Feiran looked at Nangong Quanhe in front of him. In the past, the eleventh prince was so high-spirited and unruly, but now he was just a prisoner. He remembered that before he set off, the eighth prince signaled to him that he should be the best.
So that he could kill Nangong Quanhe on the battlefield.
, and he had countless opportunities to do so, but he didn't. He felt that what kind of punishment Nangong Quanhe should have was a matter for the emperor. He was just ordered to go out and try his best to win the battle. Although Nangong Quanhe was guilty,
But it was not up to him to decide whether he should die or not.
"Nangong Feiran, why are you looking at me like that?" the eleventh prince said, his voice filled with infinite desolation, but he still did not lose the prince's dignity. He knew that this time, he would be unable to fly, and after returning, if
His father's magnanimity might have saved him from death, but even if he could escape death, he would only end up imprisoned in a sky prison all day long.
However, he also understood his father, and he would never forgive him. After all, he single-handedly caused the death of his two brothers, and his father's two favorite sons were both killed under his plan.
He did not expect at all that his former partisans in the DPRK would intercede on his behalf. He knew
He said, when the tree falls, the monkey will scatter. Those ministers originally clung to him just because they wanted to be prosperous in the future, but now he is just a down-and-out prisoner. Those people are eager to cut off all relations with him. As long as they don't add insult to injury, that's fine. Why?
Maybe I can help him speak again.
Nangong Feiran looked at Nangong Quanhe, and he could see a little loneliness and a little unwillingness on his face, but more importantly, he was really helpless.
"I'm wondering, when you took the first step, did you think of what would happen today?" Nangong Feiran said lightly. Yes, if he was calmer and didn't just want to get the throne, then he would still be a one-person man.
Next, the prince who is more than ten thousand people, even if he is not the one who inherits the throne in the future, he can still be a prince who guards one side. No matter which ending, it is better than being reduced to a prisoner now.
Nangong Quanhe looked at Nangong Feiran with a half-smile and said: "Huh, since ancient times, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Now that I am defeated by you, I have nothing to say. If I had known this, I should not have stayed.
I will kill you with all my strength!" Nangong Quanhe said with a smile. Now he has no worries at all.
How could he not know that if he hadn't done everything, he would still be the prince who could cover the sky with one hand, but what he wanted was not just a prince of one prince, he wanted all the great beams, all the great beams other than the great beams.
Liao is the Long Night in the Western Frontier...
What he wants is the whole world. He has ambitions, but his ambitions are in vain. He is brave and reckless. He has ended up like this. He knows that he cannot blame others. He only regrets that he was not more ruthless and pressed forward step by step to get rid of Nangong.
Feiran. If he had gotten rid of Nangong Feiran, then today, he would have at least half a chance of winning.
"Stubborn!" Nangong Feiran shook his head sadly. At this point, do you actually think you can win as long as you get rid of him?
Nangong Quanhe looked at Nangong Feiran's disdainful expression, laughed mockingly, and then said: "Humph, Nangong Feiran, just laugh, now that you have won, you can naturally be proud!"
"You just won't cry until you see the coffin!" Nangong Feiran said lightly. He thought that it would be completely unreasonable to talk about morality with people like Nangong Quanhe. People like him have been deeply poisoned and only have imperial power in their hearts.
And nothing else.
Nangong Quanhe looked at Nangong Feiran coldly and said, "Humph, how can a warrior like you understand the grand plan in my heart!"
"Then you can slowly outline the grand plan in your heart here, and I won't accompany you." Nangong Feiran said it almost in a sympathetic tone. How could he not know Nangong Quanhe's so-called grand plan? Just ask the world,
Which monarch doesn’t want to rule the world, which prince doesn’t want to
Inheriting great achievements and surpassing their predecessors, however, what they saw was the grand plan of the world under their control. A few of them saw the lives, blood, and casualties of the soldiers who went to the battlefield to fight. A few of them saw the sky full of casualties.
Have you seen the hard life of the people displaced by the war?
He once believed that in order to gain, one must first lose, so the cost of these casualties is inevitable. Someone has to pay the price for everything in the war. Since he has become a citizen of this country, he must be ready to do so at any time.
Therefore, when he was young and frivolous, he did not regard the lives of these common people and soldiers as a big deal, just necessary for success.
But now, I gradually understand that as an emperor, it is not how big the territory it controls, but how strong the army is that is powerful. The real strength is how prosperous the lives of its people are, without the harassment of war.
, there are no harsh taxes, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country will prosper. This is what a wise monarch should pursue.
However, just because he understood this, it did not mean that everyone would be familiar with it. Therefore, those who fought for the imperial power continued one after another, fighting bloody battles.
Nangong Feiran looked at Nangong Quanhe, feeling very emotional in his heart. He didn't know whether it was sadness or sympathy, or something else. The man in front of him didn't understand what it means to be a common person in the world, and he didn't understand the way to be an emperor at all, yet he shouted
He wants to unify the world and fantasizes about his so-called unification, but he doesn't realize that all those born into the royal family are unfortunate.
Although they have had no worries about food and clothing since childhood, leading a life like the stars holding the moon, and are envied and admired by countless people, the real situation is that they actually live a life of walking on thin ice, panicking and cautious all day long, fearing that something will happen to them.
Be careful if you make a wrong step and fall into someone else's trap and end up losing your life.
There is no happiness in such a life. If Nangong Quanhe was just a child from an ordinary family, he might be able to accomplish something with his intelligence, but it was his little cleverness that brought him to where he is today.
Nangong Feiran shook his head silently and turned to leave. There was really no common language between them.
"Nangong Feiran, I'm going to die." Nangong Quanhe suddenly stopped Nangong Feiran and said these words sadly.
Nangong Feiran was stunned for a moment, and then said patiently: "If you confess your sin to the Emperor and sincerely plead, maybe the Emperor will be merciful."
"Hahaha..." Nangong Quanhe heard Nangong Feiran's words, but the laughter was bigger and bigger. The laughter was so helpless, desolate, and seemed to have a bit of ridicule.
"Is it funny?" Nangong Feiran frowned and said.
Nangong Quanhe still laughed wildly, then suddenly stopped, looked at Nangong Feiran with contempt, and said slowly: "Nangong Feiran, I said before, you are just a martial artist. I really don't know that in this kind of world, you are How did you survive?" He paused and continued: "Do you know? The crime I committed is not just Tongliao. I led the troops to attack the Liang Kingdom. If I succeed, I will definitely force my father to abdicate and give way to the throne. I, maybe I won’t even spare his life!”
As he spoke, Nangong Quanhe looked at Nangong Feiran with anger, smiled evilly, and said: "If it were you, would you let such an unfilial son live? Or not? Nangong Feiran, you are so ignorant. .You don’t understand imperial power at all.” His tone was full of mockery.
Nangong Feiran looked at the exaggerated expression of the eleventh prince, and then said sadly: "If you ask me, you don't understand family affection at all, you don't understand father's love at all!" He still remembered that day in the study, the emperor issued an order to let When he sent out troops to encircle and suppress the enemy, he would never forget the complicated expression on his old face. He would never forget that kind of sadness, that kind of sad expression as a father.
Nangong Quanhe was stunned for a moment after hearing Nangong Feiran's words, and the sarcastic smile on his face suddenly froze.
Nangong Feiran shook his head and strode outside.
"At least I know how I died. But when some people die, their descendants will never know." A cold voice.
Nangong Feiran stopped, turned around slowly, and asked, "What do you mean?" He always thought that Nangong Quanhe came to him to beg him or something else, but he didn't expect that he was just here. He was loquacious like crazy, so he didn't want to talk to him anymore, but this sentence was probably what he really wanted to say when he asked Nangong Feiran to come to him.
The smile on Nangong Quanhe's face grew thicker, and then he said: "I mean, even if I die, at least I know how I died, my father knows how I died, and my brother knows who I am. How I died, it can be said that anyone who wants to know me knows how I died. However, for some people, their sons will never know how they died..."
When Nangong Feiran heard Nangong Quanhe's words, his heart trembled, as if he knew what the eleventh prince's words were referring to.
But he remained calm and did not speak. However, the flash of tremor in his eyes did not escape Nangong Quanhe's eyes.
