Chapter 1763 good intentions
The King of Qi stared at the queen's face full of anticipation. His face darkened. He actually stood up and said, "Mother, it seems that you are really tired. The emperor will lead troops to the front line tomorrow morning. You should rest earlier." He wanted to break free from the queen's hand. Although the queen was not as strong as Yingren, she still grabbed his arm tightly. Her voice was already very sad: "Yingren, the queen came here from Hexi to take you away. Listen to the Queen's advice and don't be stubborn anymore!"
"Mother, I thought you were missing me and even more that you were coming to Hexi to help the emperor, but I didn't expect you to be so confused." King Qi sighed: "Do you think we can leave even if we want to live a peaceful life? If the prince really becomes a big deal, do you think he will let us go? The prince is cruel and ruthless, and he kills everything. Now we are in the northwest, and his power has not yet entered the northwest. We may be safe, but if one day he really fights to the northwest, do you think he will let us go?"
"Yingren, don't worry." The queen's eyes were filled with tears. Hearing Yingren say this, there was a glimmer of hope in her eyes. "If you have any concerns because the prince is concerned, don't worry. The stepmother and stepmother promise you that even if the prince really pacifies the world, he will not make things difficult for you. He will never make things difficult for you. You believe in the queen."
"Mother, the emperor believes in you, but the emperor cannot believe in the prince." King Qi sneered: "If the prince does not kill the emperor, then it will be the kindness of a woman. Such a person will not be a big deal. He will definitely kill the weeds, and may not attack you, but he will definitely get rid of the prince. I must not sit still and wait for the death to be a bullshit teacher, waiting for the day when he put his big knife on the emperor's neck!" His voice eased slightly, "Mother, don't think too much. The emperor has grown up and knows what to do. Don't worry, no matter what, the emperor will protect you well and will not let anyone bully you!"
"You really can't listen to your mother's advice?" The queen's eyes showed despair.
The King of Qi's eyes were firm: "My mother, my child will listen to you in everything else, but for this matter, the child has decided and will never give up his great cause. The child's blood is also destined to make the child bear the responsibility of restoring the country. As for the prince!" His eyes immediately showed a resentful look and sneered: "When the child left the capital, he had already made an oath that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were, the prince's head would be cut off. If he could not be killed, the child would die with his eyes closed!"
The queen looked pale and said in a lost voice: "What did you say? You want to kill the prince?"
"Since he wants to kill me, of course I will not spare him." King Qi's eyes firmly said: "The child will take the head of his neck at all costs!"
"No." The queen sternly said: "You must never hurt the prince."
"Why?" King Qi was stunned and showed anger: "Why can't you kill him? Mother, what else do you want to say to him now?"
The queen said sadly: "You are brothers and sisters, so how can you be tragic? Yingren, you cannot be such a person, otherwise you will be punished by God."
"Mother, why do you say that to the Emperor?" King Qi changed his color and showed a fierce look. "He wanted to kill the Emperor, but you didn't blame him. It is natural for the Emperor to kill him, but you said that the Emperor will be punished by God. Mother, have you forgotten who is your biological son?"
The queen's tears were as heavy as rain, and her delicate body trembled. Seeing this, the King of Qi felt soft and smiled bitterly: "Mother, you, the emperor's words are not important. Mother, don't blame me!"
The queen seemed to be unable to stand, holding her hand on the table, slowly sat down, and then said, "Yingren, I know you have resentment in your heart, but hey, child, even if you want to restore your country, you can't do it now."
"Why?"
"You want to kill the prince, but the prince is in Hexi. Although the south falls, a large area of land in the north is still in the hands of the prince." The queen naturally knew her son's temperament very well. She knew that the King of Qi was stubborn. If she knew that it would be difficult to pull it back. She knew that it was not easy to convince the King of Qi who had already determined his heart. She changed her way and said softly: "Not only that, you should have heard that 20,000 Yi barbarian cavalry arrived in Hexi, and now it has become tools that the prince can use. Feng Yuan defeated the rebellion and was executed, leaving a large amount of money and food. These have become the items in the prince's bag!"
"Is Feng Yuan dead?" King Qi was stunned and then sneered: "It's good that way, another big enemy has been gone!"
"The prince is now in a strong position, and it is not easy to deal with him." The queen said calmly: "Don't say it's you, even Chu Huan's current strength may not be the prince's opponent!"
"My mother, don't worry, the Northwest Army is good at fighting, I have seen it with my own eyes." The King of Qi said with a hint of confidence: "Now there are tens of thousands of cavalry in the northwest. Once you enter the pass, you will definitely be invincible. It is just around the corner to conquer Hexi."
"But don't forget that the Northwest Army is not yours, but Chu Huan's control." The queen frowned and said, "Will Chu Huan let you drive it?"
King Qi was stunned, but said, "Chu Huan and Chu Huan have a close relationship with me, and promised me that he would help me attack the pass and recover Luo An. He would never lie to me." At the end of his speech, his tone was no longer so firm.
The queen said lightly: "What you mean is that Chu Huan and his Northwest people will live and die for you, and be able to ascend the throne, so that they can sacrifice their lives and shed their blood?"
King Qi's lips moved, but he didn't say anything.
"You are all doubting yourself." The queen sighed and said with a wry smile: "Yingren, you have grown up, don't be childish anymore. Even if your father is alive, you may not be able to mobilize Chu Huan. Do you think you can let him obey you? Yes, Chu Huan is kind to you, you have the kindness of knowing him, maybe he really regards you as a friend, but this does not mean that all the soldiers in the northwest will live and die for you. In the past two years in the northwest, Chu Huan has eliminated dissidents and won the hearts of people. As far as I know, Chu Huan has a high prestige in the hearts of the people and the soldiers of the northwest army. Chu Huan has governed the northwest in an orderly manner and is deeply loved by the people. Although I did not meet in person in the northwest army, there is no doubt that Chu Huan must be promoting his own lineage. They can live and die for Chu Huan, and they can live and die for you without losing weight."
King Qi clenched his fists into his hands, trembling slightly, but his fingertips became loose again, and then he became tighter unconsciously.
"There is no love and hate in the world for no reason, and no one will live and die for you for no reason." The queen sighed softly: "The Northwest Army can live and die for Chu Huan, because they know that following Chu Huan in blood can bring them glory and wealth, and honor, and honorary status. They are tied with Chu Huan, sharing good fortune and misfortune!" Staring at the King of Qi, he asked, "Yingren, what kind of favor do you have to the people of Northwest? Can your prestige in their hearts be compared with Chu Huan?"
The King of Qi had a little dry mouth, but he couldn't speak.
"The people of the Northwest are rebellious. Your father founded the Qin Dynasty and built it on the bones of countless people." The queen whispered: "At that time, there were countless casualties and injuries, and countless children of the Northwest buried their bones on the battlefield. The people of the Northwest were dissatisfied with the Qin State. If several generations of kings implemented benevolent government, they might still win the hearts of the Northwest, but!" Shaking his head and smiling bitterly: "Not only that Chu Huan has already won the hearts of the Northwest, even if you are the prince of the Qin State, you may not be able to win the hearts of the Northwest."
"According to what my mother said, I am a waste who accomplished nothing?" King Qi frowned, and his eyes showed dissatisfaction.
The queen shook her head and said, "Of course, this is not what the Queen Mother wants to do. It is just that the matter of reviving the mountains and rivers is not suitable for you. The Queen Mother said this just to make you understand that the general trend of the world is not only not in your hands, but also in the hands of Qin. You don't need to bear such responsibilities."
"Mother, the hearts of the Northwest people are not in Qin, but not everyone in the world are in the back." King Qi shook his head, looked outside the door, and then lowered his voice: "In ancient times, Goujian slept on firewood and tasted gall, so I could naturally bear humiliation and bear heavy burdens. Yes, I have no soldiers and power in my hands now, but this does not mean that I will always be like this. I can use the Northwest Army in Chu Huan's hands to first enter the pass, and then slowly win people's hearts. One day, the emperor will be full of wings!" He approached the queen two steps and whispered: "Mother, the emperor is too young and there are no trustworthy people around me, but now you are by the emperor's side, you can help the emperor with your help. As long as the mother helps, the emperor believes it!"
Before he finished speaking, the queen frowned and interrupted, "Yingren, the Queen Mother has said so much, don't you understand the Queen Mother's painstaking efforts?"
The King of Qi moved his lips, but he didn't say anything. He stared at the queen's eyes, took a few steps slowly, and opened the distance from the queen. Seeing this, the Queen couldn't help but walk forward a few steps. It seemed that the King of Qi opened the distance and made her very uneasy.
"Mother, the emperor is going to rest." The King of Qi's throat was dry, his voice a little dry: "I know, you think the emperor is an incompetent person and accomplish nothing!" A strange laughter: "But the emperor will let you know that the emperor is not an ordinary person in your eyes!" He suddenly turned around, and he didn't say anything anymore, and walked away.
The queen's beautiful face was filled with sadness, and she raised her hand and said sadly: "Yingren Yingren!" Seeing that the King of Qi was about to leave, she wanted to catch up, but her legs became weak. After two steps, she fell to the ground.
