There is no doubt that Naibao is smart and courageous. If he wasn't smart, he wouldn't know how to take advantage of the conflict between his father and his adoptive father; if he wasn't brave, he wouldn't turn around and betray his father.
, but this is far from enough, because...
"Rong Rui, you are the crown prince of the empire and the future emperor. All the people of this country, except your father and mother, must listen to you." It was the first time for Wang Jinling to speak to Nai Bao so seriously.
"You have to listen to other people's opinions, but no one can force you to do something you don't want to do. You have to learn to say no, including to me." Maybe, he should send Naibao back to the palace, and Naibao will follow him.
There is less overt domineering and decisiveness in killing.
He is not an emperor. He can teach Nai Bao the imperial skills, but he cannot teach Nai Bao how to be an iron-blooded and decisive overlord.
"Why? Are you my adoptive father?" Naibao also became serious, but his seriousness was different from Wang Jinling's seriousness.
"The adoptive father is not the father." Wang Jinling explained his identity to Naibao for the first time: "Rongrui, no prince from ancient times to the present will recognize his adopted father, unless he is in a weak position and needs the adopted father to help him.
If you are in a superior position, you will never allow someone to be above your own rights."
Obviously, Nai Bao doesn't need one at all. An extra adoptive father is of little use to Nai Bao. In many cases, it will restrict Nai Bao's actions.
"Father, you won't hurt me, right?" Naibao couldn't help but sit up straight, his body tensed up, like a student listening carefully in class.
Wang Jinling smiled softly: "Rongrui, don't ask such an innocent question. For an emperor, there are only two kinds of people around you. One is those who want to please you and seek benefits from you; the other is
I want to overthrow you and replace you."
Nai Bao knows this very well, but he wants to know: "Father, what kind of person are you?"
Wang Jinling said without thinking: "Obviously Li Zi, the adoptive father is the first type of person."
Only Wang Jinling could even say this kind of thing calmly. Naibao's face twitched slightly: "What do you want, foster father?" Apart from this country, does his foster father want anything else? Do you need to please him?
"My foster father wants a lot, a free and easy second half of his life, and the Wang family will not be destroyed during your reign." These benefits are obvious, but they usually ignore them.
He is a descendant of the Wang family and will always be tied to the Wang family. Even if it is for his sake, Naibao will give preferential treatment to the Wang family after he succeeds to the throne.
"Even if you are not my adoptive father, you can still get these." On the contrary, it was because of him that he was holding back Wang Jinling. If not for him, his adoptive father would have traveled around the world long ago.
Wang Jinling shook his head: "It's different. You'll understand when you sit on the throne in the future." Being a foster father to a baby is no different to Wang Jinling, but to the Wang family, it is a world of difference.
"Rong Rui, from now on, you will learn to think from the perspective of the crown prince and the emperor. If you don't know how, ask your father." After Wang Jinling said this, he relaxed and continued to read the unfinished book.
, ignored Nai Bao and left Nai Bao alone, sitting there thinking about Wang Jinling's words.
The sky was getting dark, but Nai Bao was still motionless, but Wang Jinling couldn't see it anymore: "If you want to go back and think about it." He wasn't afraid that his body would become stiff after sitting for a long time.
Nai Bao instinctively wanted to respond, but then the word "Crown Prince" appeared in his mind, and Nai Bao instantly understood.
"Father, I understand." Naibao stood up, turned around and walked out.
It was Wang Jinling who was clearly driving Nai Bao out, but the aura shown by Nai Bao showed that he was not happy to stay here. He could come and leave whenever he wanted...
grown up!
Wang Jinling watched Nai Bao leave. He didn't look back until Nai Bao could no longer be seen.
His influence on Nai Bao is indeed too great. Nai Bao is too dependent on him, which is not a good thing for Nai Bao.
It's time to let go and let Nai Bao grow up alone. With those six boys around, Nai Bao will not be in danger.
This time, we really have to leave.
Even if he doesn't want to leave this time, it won't work. The emperor and Qingchen have both left the palace. He will be bumped into, and inevitably will be arrested and used as a coolie.
"Go pack your things." Wang Jinling stood up and ordered directly.
From the side, a response came: "Yes."
A quarter of an hour later, a servant in gray clothes came to report: "Master Qu Zhe wants to see you."
"Let him come in." Wang Jinling guessed that it was time for Qu Zhe to come to see him.
However, in a few months, the boy seemed to have grown up by dozens of years. His temperament became more stable, his eyes became more unfathomable, and he was shrouded in a mysterious temperament, which made the boy even more outstanding, but not the kind that captured the attention of others.
Amazing to the human eye.
Standing there, it is as if he is integrated with the environment. Even if you look at him, it is easy to ignore his existence...
"Why?" Zhezhe's first question was a question.
"You are a smart person." This is why Wang Jinling chose Zhezhe. There are many smart people in the world, but there are not many young people like Zhezhe, and he is reluctant to waste such talents.
"Then why do you want to give me a chance to choose in the end?" Zhezhe's eyes were deep. After these few months of training, he could not only control his emotions, but also control his eyes to prevent them from revealing his thoughts.
"I said, you are a smart person. Rongrui pleads for you, and I will never let Rongrui down. As for choice? I don't think being willing and not daring to betray are contradictory things." This is Wang Jinling's self-confidence.
, he had many ways to make Zhezhe dare not betray Nai Bao, but before he took action, he told Zhezhe clearly and gave Zhezhe a chance to choose.
If Zhezhe is not willing, he will not force Zhezhe; if Zhezhe is willing, he will not stop.
Now it seems that the training has achieved good results. If Zhezhe really didn't want to, he wouldn't have come to see him today.
"I don't understand." Zhezhe shook his head, his eyes were clear and cold, without any confusion.
He didn't want to owe Wang Jinling a favor, but now it seemed that he would owe it even if he didn't.
"You don't need to understand, you just need to know who you are now. Are you satisfied?" Now Zhezhe, even without the protection of the snow wolf, can still conquer Beiling.
Zhezhe nodded...
He was originally a person with power, and it was very painful for him to rely on the snow wolf for protection in Beiling. Now that he has regained the ability to protect himself, how could he be dissatisfied?
Having grown up in a demon sect, he could never leave his behind to others, except Snow Wolf.
"Since you are satisfied, there is no need to worry about anything else. I will give you one year, and you will tell me your decision after one year." Wang Jinling still has this kind of confidence...
Even if he knew it was a trap, Zhezhe would still jump.
"Okay." Zhezhe left these words, turned around and walked out.
