Chapter 197 The Beginning of Questioning, It Has Nothing to Do with Right or Wrong, only Different Positions

Seeing that Lu Mingyuan didn't respond.

Lu Yunqing sighed helplessly to himself. After saying these words, he soon lost the confidence to even look at Lu Mingyuan.

But what can he do.

I am burdened with the expectations of too many people, the expectations of many subordinates, the instructions of my husband, and the expectations of my father. I must not make any mistakes.

If he cannot sit on the throne, he will never be able to see Ning Feiyu.

That is to say, my beloved concubine will no longer recognize herself after reshaping her body.

The sight of the Soldier Saint leaving is still vivid in his mind, and his words are still unforgettable.

If he doesn't have the ability to prove himself, everything will be far away from him.

Lu Yunqing believed that Lu Mingyuan would definitely agree to him.

Sixth Brother has never had great ambitions and has no intention of fighting for power. If the two of them can talk openly, things will be easier to handle. He will help Lu Mingyuan solve all the troubles and then let him be free smoothly.

After he takes over, he will try his best to take care of the other party.

However, Lu Mingyuan had mixed feelings when he heard this sentence.

Although he had long known that the road to seizing the heir was destined to be bloody, he did not expect that he had overcome the conspiracy and left behind family ties.

After a long silence, he asked:

"Is this what you want to ask, or is it what others want to ask?"

He wanted to know whether Lu Yunqing thought of these words himself, or whether his staff helped him operate them.

Seeing that Lu Mingyuan was willing to talk, Lu Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

"It's what they mean, and it's what I mean."

"I understand." Lu Mingyuan nodded, and then continued:

"Yun Qing, have you ever thought about a question?"

"Brother, please tell me, what's the problem?" Lu Yunqing asked seriously.

"Have you ever thought about why you want to seize the throne?" Lu Mingyuan looked at him and said seriously.

Lu Yunqing nodded lightly: "Of course I have thought about it. It was to stop what my second brother was doing. Now that he is dead, I was confused for a while. Now, I have some reasons to do it, although behind my back... The means are not very visible, so I cannot blame myself, but if the result is good, it doesn't matter."

"Sixth brother, you probably don't know yet. Lu Guangjing killed many people behind his back. He not only framed you, but also designed to frame the eldest brother, the third brother, and the fourth brother. He died in the cave. He deserved it. , but it is a pity that his life did not fall into my hands in the end."

Lu Yunqing said in a cold voice, obviously his hatred towards Lu Guangjing still lingers.

His master, Li Sheng, told him that in addition to Xun Yu, the late King Jin was also involved in the death of Princess Ning and could not be tolerated.

Any person or force related to this matter must die!

The tree fell, but the monkey on it was not dead yet.

The notorious Infernal Affairs Party was also among the targets he eradicated, and was a key target.

After returning from the cave, Lu Guangjing had sent people to kill many spies from the Jin Palace.

"In addition to Prince Jin's Mansion, how many people are you going to kill?"

Lu Mingyuan asked.

Lu Yunqing said seriously: "Until this matter is thoroughly investigated, we will kill every one we catch. We must not tolerate it."

"Brother Six, you are in the cold palace. You don't know what has happened in the past year."

"How damn Lu Guangjing is, how annoying Xun Yu is, and the Infernal Affairs Party behind them is not a good thing. In the capital, grievances are destined to be difficult, good and evil are difficult to distinguish, and there are too many people who like to seek death. , Fourth brother, you know, on the surface, you are pure and honest, but in fact, you use the blood of women in Prince Zhuang's palace to make elixirs every day. In addition, there is also the fifth prince who has been targeting you. He is cruel and cruel, and he is not a good thing. Before I still sympathize with them, but now it seems, shouldn’t they die?”

"As for Brother Qihuang, who has been doing business sincerely, where do you think his money comes from? Is it because the Chamber of Commerce colluded with the government to evade taxes and get it out of the pockets of Dayan's treasury?"

"Even the third brother, who has always been upright and brave, has also been involved in the conspiracy and conspiracy, and it is still difficult to tell the truth from the truth."

"In this imperial capital of ours, I will only kill whoever kills me or harms me. That is the Buddha's compassion for all sentient beings. So, to cut the weeds, we must remove the roots. Do you think this is right, Brother Six?"

Lu Mingyuan smiled faintly and said: "It's natural to eliminate the root of the grass, but I ask you, if you can guarantee that if you kill an enemy, everyone related to you will be fine, what will you do?"

Lu Yunqing felt that the teachings he had received were meaningless when faced with such a problem. He wondered: "If you can kill them all, why leave trouble for the future?"

After receiving the answer, Lu Mingyuan said with emotion.

"You are indeed different from before."

If it were Lu Yunqing before, he might not even dare to kill people, but now he can blurt out human life without blinking an eye. Such a transformation was something he never expected.

Lu Mingyuan chuckled and said: "According to what you said, everyone deserves to die, then you should kill me too. Anyway, I am also hindering your throne. I am also a person with bad conduct. I often harass women in brothels and rob them." Folk girl.”

"Brother Six!"

Lu Yunqing didn't expect that the other party would say such words. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. When he lowered his head, his eyes wandered.

"You are different. I know that those things were not done by you. I had people investigate the matter of you robbing a common girl. It was the fifth emperor's brother Lu Mingkong who did it. In order to make you, sixth brother, bear the infamy of the people of the capital, he You deliberately asked a commoner girl to dress up as a brothel girl and perform a fairy dance. You were drunk and delirious at the time, so you naturally had no way to defend yourself."

"Do you think I'm killing people randomly? Actually, I'm not. I know who should be killed and who are innocent."

"The sage said that a scholar cannot be without great perseverance, and there is a long way to go. I can tolerate evil, but I need to do it according to my ability according to the specific situation."

Lu Mingyuan shook his head: "Even as an elder brother, I am not qualified to criticize you. This is all your own choice. I just hope that you will not go against your own heart."

"You originally said that you were studying to create peace in the world and you didn't want to see brothers killing each other. But now I feel that you are contrary to your own path. If the path is unstable, how can you sit on the throne?"

"You can kill the Seventh Emperor Brother Lu Yunwan for taking bribes and perverting the law, but what about the Ninth Emperor Brother Lu Yunhuang who has never participated in the dispute? How should you deal with it?"

Lu Yunqing lowered his head and said, "Sir, you taught me that the laws of heaven are ruthless. To preserve the laws of nature, destroy human desires. In front of the laws of heaven, humans have nothing to do. They can only give way to the laws of nature."

Lu Mingyuan sighed in his heart and said calmly: "If a person wants to give way to the laws of heaven, then what's the point of living?"

The eighth brother's idea was still too naive.

With the support of Li Sheng and his father, he could reach this point. Without it, he would not be where he is today.

At the same time, it was Li Sheng who created him, Lu Yunqing, who was qualified to fight for the throne. Now he has completely accepted the values ​​​​of the Confucian Temple and has completely turned into the person he hated most at the beginning. He is not there yet. It can be seen, but the other party will go further and further, and then it will not be as simple as heartbreak.

He didn't believe that his father didn't know all this.

Lu Mingyuan even suspected that all this was his father's handiwork.

From the moment he received the imperial edict of pardon, the candidates supported by his father underwent subtle changes.

If Emperor Yong'an wanted to support the eighth prince Lu Yunqing, he would never let himself out of the palace.

Now that he has done it, it means that his attitude has changed a long time ago.

There is undoubtedly an ending behind it - the father gave up on Lu Yunqing.

Lu Yunqing, from Prince Chongwen's Mansion, came to find him after smelling this turmoil.

He hoped to use Lu Yunqing's persuasion to give up the throne without spending a single soldier.

Lu Mingyuan had finally understood the situation.

No matter what Empress Da Ming does, no matter how much she saves herself, or how much public opinion ferments, she cannot shake her current position in the heart of her father.

There was no need for him to be nervous about anything.

At this moment, Lu Mingyuan finally understood the purpose of Emperor Yong'an's imperial edict.

View it from this.

He was the one who was "killed" from among the many princes.

Based on the previous words of Patriarch Yuqing, we can know.

He bears the fate of the three religions and is the destined person of the Taoist sect.

Lu Mingyuan looked at the lost Lu Yunqing, turned away, and murmured softly:

"You and I have nothing to do with right or wrong, only different positions. Please come back."

No one is perfect.

Lu Mingyuan believed that he did not have the Six Yao Tortoise Armor and was just an ordinary person, far less knowledgeable than Lu Yunqing.

But now Lu Yunqing no longer has the original intention to follow the Tao.

He is no longer qualified to aspire to the throne.

Can an emperor who regards human life as nothing but unscrupulous means really save Dayan?

As an emperor, with millions of corpses lying at his feet, but able to save tens of millions of people, Lu Yunqing would choose this path without hesitation.

A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people. Although he can only save the person in front of him, and the future is unknown, he only hopes that he can do the latter, and that is enough.

Hearing Lu Mingyuan's words, Lu Yunqing's eyes suddenly turned red, and his voice was choked and heavy as he said:

"What do you need me to do so that you can give up the throne without getting angry or angry? If you do this, Sixth Brother, I will never see Ning'er. As long as you tell me, I will do it immediately."

Lu Mingyuan turned sideways and said with sad eyes: "I am also sorry for the death of Princess Ning."

Then Lu Mingyuan stopped talking.

Lu Yunqing gritted his teeth in discomfort, his eyes were moist, and he clenched his fists and left the backyard of Qingzhu Palace.

After a long time.

Qi Muxue led people back to the small courtyard and saw Lu Mingyuan with a forlorn figure. None of the girls spoke for fear of disturbing their husbands.

She and Huo Hongling looked at each other, and then asked cautiously:

"He just left?"

Lu Mingyuan glanced at the peach blossoms that were just blooming outside the palace wall, and said calmly: "Gone, gone forever."
