Cha Shiyin didn't speak for a long time, just watching them bow and bend down quietly.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside, and a blind woman came in holding an egg-yellow dessert. Cha Shiyin was a little surprised: "Laiya, it's...not noon yet, right?"
"The dining hall is closed. Such a big thing happened last night, so I just wanted to make some desserts to comfort my friends."
Laiya came over to put down the dessert and turned to leave, but when she passed by Ming Shuiyun, she accidentally tripped on Ming Shuiyun's toes. Ming Shuiyun quickly helped her up, and she waved her hand to indicate that it was okay, and stuffed a note into Ming Shuiyun.
Shui Yun held it in his hands and quickly left the curator's office.
Although Ming Shuiyun wanted to read the contents of the note, the atmosphere in the curator's room was too solemn. Her slightest move would attract others' attention, so she could only put it aside temporarily.
Cha Shiyin took a bite of the egg yolk pudding with painted balls and snorted: "Just because you are sincere in admitting your mistake, you don't need to bow. You are already in your seventies and eighty, and your waist can't bear it."
The Queen Mother was relieved: "Then..."
"But I still refuse."
Cha Shiyin said coldly: "Why should I save those strangers whose names I cannot name? Why should I save the people from danger? Why should I...save you?"
"Why can you shameless and incompetent people live on, while I have to die for you?"
"I have never made a mistake in my life, why do I have to suffer? I am obviously a good person, why should I die for you bad guys?"
"They want to live, and you also want to live, so don't I want to? Do you think that if you say a few nice words and bow a few times, I will obediently sacrifice my life for the Holy Sword Huiyao? Who do you think you are?
, who gave you the courage?"
Several cabinet ministers were so scolded that they couldn't hold back their anger. They wanted to call the remaining guests outside to come in for physical negotiations, but they were told to be honest after being given a glare by Jiang Li.
Violence was not an option for them from the beginning. It was not that they were worried about not being able to defeat the sword-wielder who seemed to be less than thirty years old, but that the sword-wielding lineage had mastered the monopoly technology - when the holy sword was hanging in the air,
At that time, only the sword wielder could summon the Holy Sword! No one else could do it!
God knows how the sword-holding lineage is passed down. If the sword-holding lineage is angered, as long as he does not pass on the method, what if the Ming family makes the holy sword hang empty in the future, but the sword-holding lineage is cut off, that means
Now no one can summon the Holy Sword!
Anyone who dares to provoke the Sword-wielding lineage will be beaten to the head by the royal family immediately!
Hey, I don’t know why Gaozu Huiyao set up a new sword-holding line in the first place. Wasn’t he afraid that the sword-holding line would be cut off, causing the holy sword Huiyao to remain vacant forever?
The Empress Dowager took a deep breath, but before she could say anything, Cha Huan stepped forward and asked loudly: "What other reasons do we need to save people? We need a reason not to save people!"
"I'm sorry, I'm a selfish mediocre person." Cha Shiyin said calmly: "I really need a reason to sacrifice my life to save others."
"Well, I read a sentence in the newspaper, and I think it's just right for now - with greater ability comes greater responsibility!"
"This doesn't sound like a reason, but more like a moral kidnapping. Why do people with greater ability have greater responsibilities? People with greater ability owe you? Do the strong deserve to be kidnapped by the weak?"
"Because people have conscience! They have compassion! They have sympathy!"
Cha Huan straightened his back and his eyes were bright. Even if he had a bald patch above his right ear, it did not affect his majesty at all: "I have always looked down on that old boy Helei - now even if he died heroically - but
In my opinion, his reputation as the Killing Pillar is well deserved, and it is also the most beautiful achievement he has done in his life!"
"Whenever he sees, hears, or feels a fight, he will arrive at the scene of the crime as quickly as possible to stop the fight or catch the murderer. Although he mostly just wants to show off his power, he actually does it.
Many good deeds, saved many people, and indirectly saved many families!"
"Although other Wu Zhu are not like He Lei who spends all day doing nothing but rescuing people, when they encounter, see, or hear a vicious incident happening, they will rarely let go and leave. At least they will prevent the vicious incident.
Keep going, saving people will become more common."
"Why is this happening? Does practicing warfare make people kind-hearted or nosy?"
"Of course not!" Cha Huan's voice was thunderous and deafening: "It's just that Wuzhu can't bear it, but Wuzhu can!"
"After cultivating to the level of Wuzhu, our eyesight and hearing are far superior to ordinary people. If a child is beaten by gangsters in an alley, ordinary people can't even hear, so naturally we can't ask them to do anything. But we Wuzhu can hear
Hearing the insults from the gangsters, knowing that their fists would break the child's ribs, knowing that no one nearby could stop them!"
"Wuzhu, on the other hand, only needs to move his hands a little, or even shout, to stop the evil deeds from continuing."
"Because I can save others, I can't bear it. Because I can't bear it, I have to save others!"
"The more you talk, the angrier you are getting. I won't pretend anymore!" Cha Huan walked up and slammed the table, scolding Cha Shiyin: "I don't care what your name is, but when I learned from Yu Lian that you can
When the Holy Sword is cancelled, I feel angry in my heart!"
"Why did Yanjing set up a statistics department to arrest people wantonly? Why are the various districts so full of rebellious ambitions? It's not because the Holy Sword is hanging in the air. These ghosts and monsters know that the next twenty years will be a time of chaos, so they can't wait to jump out and harm all living beings!"
"And you can obviously cancel the suspension of the Holy Sword, let the Holy Sword shine again to suppress the world, and extend the peace for a few years. Although you can't completely solve the problem, there will definitely be many people who don't deserve to die because of this, and who don't deserve to live.
The careerists will continue to lie dormant!"
"I don't know how afraid of death you are, but you obviously have the ability to save those innocent civilians who are swallowed up by the torrent of troubled times, but you refuse to save them. Do you really have a clear conscience!?"
Facing the roaring Cha Huan, Cha Shiyin remained calm and said, "If I say that even if millions of corpses are piled up in front of me, there won't be any fluctuation in my heart, will you think I'm being arrogant?"
"However, I understand why you brought the principal here."
Cha Shiyin glanced at the Empress Dowager and Ling Jiangli behind him: "I thought the principal was shameless and insisted on getting involved... I didn't expect that he is your trump card."
"Only a morally perfect weapon like the principal can exert its devastating power. Being taught by the principal personally, who can't feel ashamed, pity, and intolerance? Even if they are kidnapped by morality,
That is also willing."
"The sword bearer."
The Empress Dowager said: "You misunderstood... But if we old guys also walk into the grave as a price for bringing out the Holy Sword Huiyao, I would like to express my willingness on behalf of the royal family. As long as the people of Yanjing can be saved, the royal family is willing to go
die."
"The imperial court is also willing." Ling Jiangli ignored the glances from the cabinet minister behind him and said calmly: "If you don't know who you want to kill, just ask Cha Huan - he has been waiting for this day for a long time."
Cha Huan's face showed surprise.
Cha Shiyin just raised his eyebrows.
"...I'm still somewhat enlightened." He said, "But whether or not to kill you is left to the next supreme judge."
Cha Shiyin signaled them to be quiet, looked at the seven palace masters and said: "Okay children, after listening for so long, you should understand the current situation, right? Maybe I need to explain it again-"
"Yanjing is now unable to resist the invasion of troops from outside the area. The only solution is to invite the Holy Sword Huiyao. Even if the Holy Sword Huiyao is really invited, the emperor will have to wield the sword."
"The invaders will come from the south and the north. Although we don't know exactly how many people there are on the other side, cutting the south with one sword and attacking the north with one sword will definitely solve the problem. This means that the emperor needs to wield two swords."
"You may know that the emperor's lifespan will be lost by swinging the sword, but you don't know how it will be lost?" Cha Shiyin raised two fingers and then put one away: "Swinging a sword will reduce the lifespan by half."
The palace masters were all stunned. Ming Dailan asked cautiously: "Wouldn't it mean that you would die immediately if you waved two swords?"
Cha Shiyin shook his head: "No, the first sword will deduct half of your life span, and the second sword will deduct another half of your remaining life span. That means only a quarter of your life span is left."
"Among all the emperors in the past, your current one is the most unlucky - three-quarters of his life span has been lost just after he ascended the throne. But as a reward, the new emperor will be able to wield the Holy Sword Glory and become the supreme master of this country. The new emperor's
The order is the fate of these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and the name of the new emperor will be immortal in history."
"But you don't need to be nervous. After all, I haven't agreed to invite the Holy Sword Huiyao yet."
Cha Shiyin glanced at the Empress Dowager, Ling Jiangli, Cha Huan and others: "These incompetent adults have made such a mess, but you children have to pay the price. I am deeply ashamed of them... I am not targeting them.
Any one of you, I mean all of you, including your Cha Huan, you are all incompetent trash."
"So, I want to hear what you have to say."
Cha Shiyin took a bite of egg yolk pudding and glanced at the seven palace masters: "Based on your answers, I will judge..."
