"Among the princes, there are no outstanding ones, but after all the officials and dignitaries, Xue Xiaohou Ye Xianyun Yehe and Shen Qingfeng are not of my race after all..."
Speaking of the latter part, Emperor Shenwu sighed again: "The iron mine this time is a blessing to Shenwu, but also a disaster to Shenwu. If the iron mine cannot be preserved, Shenwu will be the slave of others."
"Back then, our ancestors, from a slave, became a powerful and powerful founding emperor. He marched southward and was invincible, unifying the laws and writings of the vassal states."
"I was like a chivalrous man who killed one person in ten steps and left no trace for thousands of miles. He was also like a great scholar in the court who wrote poems that were heroic and majestic and have been passed down through the ages."
"The ancestors once said that my heart is like a bright moon, shining in the dark night, and like a rising sun, its heat is unquenchable. He named the country Shenwu because he wanted our country to be Shenwu forever."
Emperor Shenwu drank the hibiscus tea in pain: "If our ancestors knew that today Shenwu has become the last of the vassal states and has lost thirty cities, five mines, and one medicinal field in the past five years, even hell would not let me go.
"
Emperor Shenwu is only middle-aged, but in the past five years, half of his hair has turned white and there are many wrinkles at the end of his eyes.
He looked tired all over.
"Between the vassal states, the powerful warriors were bullied by other states, and their resources were divided up by other states."
"The people of the thirty cities that were plundered were all slaves of others. They were all eighth-class slaves."
"The decline of Shenwu today shows my incompetence."
"Ah Yue, I know that the royal family is ashamed of you, Prince Chen is ashamed of you, and Shenwu is ashamed of you."
Emperor Shenwu sighed and said: "I am also incompetent. I cannot guard the people of thirty cities, nor can I protect the glory of Shenwu."
"You are the only daughter of Marquis Zhenbei. When you were born, the sun and the moon were in the same sky, which shocked the major colleges and Shenxuan Jiuzhou. However, you suffered inhuman suffering in Shenxuan College."
"In the final analysis, I am still incompetent. If I, Shenwu, were the head of the vassal kingdoms, how could the people from the Shenxuan Academy dare to bully you like this? I am not bullying you because you have no one behind you, and I am bullying the weakness of your country."
The corners of Emperor Shenwu's eyes were moist.
He sees it clearly than anyone else, but he is only suitable to be a wise king for the country and the people in prosperous times, but is not suitable to kill in troubled times.
His heart is not cruel enough.
His ability is not outstanding enough.
Chu Yue was quite moved when she heard what Emperor Shenwu said.
In her memory, her mother Zhenbei Hou was a lonely person, but he gave her all his tenderness.
Perhaps, in Chu Yue's subconscious, she regarded the mother in other people's memories as her own.
In this way, you can soothe your broken heart.
Chu Yue stood up, faced Emperor Shenwu, raised her hands, and said: "Your Majesty, as the Marquis of Zhenbei, I should take the world as my own responsibility, and I should shoulder the heavy responsibility and safeguard the peace of Shenwu."
Emperor Shenwu quickly raised his head and said, "If this is the case, that would be the best."
Chu Yue staggered, her legs became weak, and she almost fell down in the imperial study room.
Why does she feel that she is being plotted by the Shenwu Emperor?
Emperor Shenwu, just waiting for her righteous words?
"I am very relieved."
Emperor Shenwu sighed and said, "Ayue, come and have tea."
Emperor Shenwu looked at the hibiscus tea in the cup and felt nauseous, but he drank it all in one gulp.
Chu Yue sat down in confusion, her mind filled with confusion.
She is a selfish person who does whatever it takes to survive. How did she become a hero today?
even......
I also felt like I was on a pirate ship.
Chu Yue looked at Emperor Shenwu suspiciously.
Then she saw Emperor Shenwu change his melancholy just now and smile at her.
