Xiao Heng responded absently, and did not rush to leave the political hall. Instead, he silently watched the autumn wind outside the window gradually blowing up the fallen leaves. He sighed and said: "Chen Rong, you said that I, the emperor, am
Don’t you act like a coward?”
Chen Rong, the eunuch in charge, was shocked. He didn't expect that the emperor would suddenly say such a thing. He quickly replied: "Why did the emperor say this?"
"Previously they forced me to kill my brother Xiao Zhao, and now they force me to let Li Yuanzhe succeed Chen Guogong. I am the emperor. They force me again and again. How can I not be the emperor?"
What a coward?!" Xiao Heng's lips curled up into a wry smile, and he felt as tired as ever before!
Chen Rong didn't know how to persuade him to make the emperor feel better. After a moment of silence, he hesitated and said, "Is the emperor still worried about the Li family?"
Xiao Heng responded noncommittally and said quietly: "I have finally reduced the power of the Li family. Whether Li Yuanzhe disappears or dies, if he remains hidden, I will not do anything to him... After all, he is Ah
Jing’s brother and his father have chosen to commit suicide in prison!”
When Xiao Heng said this, he paused, with a frightening cold light flashing in his eyes: "But I didn't expect that he endured the humiliation and disappeared for so long just for this moment to regain the power of the Li family!"
"If the emperor cares, why did he just agree to let Li Yuanzhe succeed Chen Guogong?" Chen Rong has been with Xiao Heng for a long time and has seen with his own eyes how the emperor dealt with the Li family. Although he felt sorry for the Li family, he did not choose to side with the Li family.
At home, because he knows that the emperor has the emperor's difficulties!
"I have no choice! I still need him to quell the chaos for me!" Xiao Heng punched the wall hard and said with hatred: "I can only do this!"
"Then after he has finished quelling the chaos for the Emperor, the Emperor will think of ways to deal with him..." Chen Rong suggested cautiously, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xiao Heng with a wave of his hand.
"At that time, he already had military power. If I deal with him again, I'm afraid I will force him to rebel!" Xiao Heng shook his head and smiled bitterly. Thinking of what the courtiers said just now, his temples jumped, as if he was back to the time when they forced him to do so.
Just like he killed his own brother Xiao Zhao!
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. I believe the Li family also understands that Your Majesty has a loving heart towards them..." Seeing that the Emperor looked wrong, Chen Rong quickly advised him: "After all, the Emperor didn't kill them all in the first place!"
Xiao Heng was so shocked by the four words "Kill them all" that his mind buzzed, and his ears began to reverberate with the words that Ah Jing had asked Chen Rong to bring to him before she died!
She said that she regretted falling in love with him, and if there was an afterlife, she would not let him go...
Maybe she didn't have to wait for the next life, she started her revenge without a look of death in peace!
Although it was not his fault that Li Yuanzhe encountered an assassin on his way to the funeral, he knew this but did not send anyone to thoroughly investigate who assassinated Li Yuanzhe... Not only that, he also allowed the matter to continue, knowing that he did not have to do it himself.
Li Yuanzhe may die unexpectedly!
It’s just that some things are often not in his calculations!
"That's all, I'm sorry for the Li family..." Xiao Heng waved his hand, closed his eyes and was silent for a long time, then slowly opened his eyes and said, "Let Li Yuanzhe inherit the position of Chen Guogong hereditary, as compensation for the Li family! As long as
He has no rebellious intentions, so I will not do anything to him!"
