Chapter 42: One person's fault, how can I be worthy of Lu Chen [Who dares to discuss this taboo topic in Daqing!] [Even the war hawks were afraid to cross this red line and took an attitude of affirming peace talks.] [Six years ago, except for the Eighth Prince, who knelt outside the palace gate for three days and three nights to ask for an imperial edict to fight, and was almost deposed, he also won the hearts of the people.] [At that time, the voices of advocating war in the court rose and fell, heads were shed, blood flowed like a river, the imperial capital was shrouded in a bloody storm, and everyone in the court and the country was terrified.] 【Xie Lingxuan said it openly today.】 [The emperor's uncle also closed his eyes slightly and sighed.] [“Hey… the eldest daughter of the Xie family.”] [This emperor was known for his magnanimity. Even when facing insults from his subjects, he would just smile calmly and say, "Using people as a mirror, one can correct one's moral conduct."] [However, there is a bottom line that cannot be crossed regarding the matter of going south to negotiate peace. Anyone who dares to make trouble or oppose this matter will surely incur the wrath of the emperor and implicate a wide range of people.]
[From this point on, there was no longer any minister in the court who sang the praises of the Lu family army or spoke for them.] [The newly-appointed imperial censors, in order to show their talents, submitted memorials to the emperor regarding the Lu family army. The emperor was surprisingly calm about this matter and even advised them to be broad-minded and not dwell too much on the Lu family's affairs.] [However, those who gave advice were demoted in secret and promoted in secret.] 【This is the Emperor’s heart.】 [If it wasn't for the emperor's secret granting, who would not give this young guard of the Lu family some face? ] [It was revealed today by the eldest daughter of the Xie family, and no one dared to say anything.] [The Queen's eyes, as cold as a pond, gently swept over Xie Lingxuan, and she said sternly and coldly: "Xie Lingxuan, how dare you say such presumptuous words in front of me."] [“Misfortune comes from the mouth. Do you know that the Xie family is not easy to come by now?”] [“How much effort did your father put in!”] [“How arrogant!”] [The son of the prime minister stood aside. Hearing the queen's words, he also looked helpless and murmured: "Xie Lingxuan, Xie Lingxuan, why are you doing this?"] [The Queen is the mother of a country. Her every word and every statement has already put the final nail in the coffin of this matter. There is no doubt about it.] [Su Yue's eyes were already filled with tears. Her cousin was really too reckless.] 【Xie Lingxuan stood in the middle of the field and remained silent.】 [She was silent for a moment, and finally spoke slowly: "If the words from the heart cannot be expressed, then I, Xie Lingxuan, am the only one who knows my faults."] [However, Han Wangfei Zhou Jinyu did not intend to give up. ] [She stroked Yun Dai's sleeves and said with a bright smile:] [“It’s just one person’s fault? That’s too easy to say.”] [“I remember that the daughter of the Xie family and the young guard had an engagement?”]
【His words hurt your heart】 [If Xie Lingxuan's words just now were not enough to put the Xie family to death, then if they were really involved with the Lu family, the consequences would be unimaginable.] [It even implicates the Lu family. ] 【Xie Lingxuan was finally moved, and stared at Zhou Jinyu, saying resolutely: "What Xie Lingxuan said has nothing to do with others."】 [However, the Princess of Han ignored her and turned her gaze to you.] [She smiled brightly and said, "Young Master, do you think this is just Miss Xie's fault, or is there something else going on?"] [“Or maybe, does the young master think, like Miss Xie, that your majesty’s decision to go south to negotiate peace was a mistake?”] 【As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent. 】 [Six years ago, when the Lu Family Army was at its peak, the Lu Family Army led by the Northern Land Army Marshal Lu Chen was invincible and powerful.] [Even the current emperor has never asked this question directly and frankly? ] [However, as time goes by, the Lu family army has long since become a thing of the past, and you, the former Shao Bao, have also become a Taoist priest.] [The past events are brought up again today and have resurfaced at this moment. ] [Everyone holds their breath, expecting you to give a clear answer. ] [The Queen also looks up at you at this moment, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.] [This is a question that even His Majesty has never asked directly. ] [Once upon a time, Your Majesty asked and answered himself alone by his pillow in the dead of night: "Going south to negotiate peace, Lu Shaobao, do you think it is right or wrong?" However, the current emperor never mentioned it to Lu Chen in person. 】【You smiled. 】 [You look at the crowd, and you already have a plan in mind. You have a reputation for being able to judge people, and the thoughts of the crowd are like a mirror to you.] 【So... you decide. 】 1. If you agree to go south to negotiate peace, you can win Zhou Jinyu's favor, but Xie Lingxuan's situation may become more difficult. 2. If you oppose going south to negotiate peace, you will encounter other troubles yourself, Zhou Jinyu's favorability will be reduced by half, and Xie Lingxuan's crisis will not be resolved. 3. Scolding Xie Lingxuan, she can get out of this crisis, 4. Praise Zhou Jinyu and she will fall in love with you. 5. Praise Xie Lingxuan, her favor towards you will increase, and she will fall into a desperate situation and will surely die. 6. Get involved in person. (1/3) The light curtain on the tripod moved, and five options slowly appeared. Yu Ke was a little surprised. Traditionally, there have only been three or four such options, but at this moment a new variable has unexpectedly been added. Yu Ke knows very well that behind every option, there are intricate causes and effects, just like the butterfly effect, which has an immeasurable impact on the subsequent situation.
Every choice is of great importance. He concentrated and held his breath, carefully weighing every possibility in his mind, and finally decided that saving Xie Lingxuan was the best strategy. Finally, she chose option 3. Scolding Xie Lingxuan would help her get out of this crisis. The first and second options are obviously not wise choices. If chosen, the woman from the Xie family will still be in crisis and may even bring more unnecessary trouble. Look again! The fourth option. 4. Praise Zhou Jinyu and she will fall in love with you. When Yu Ke saw this option, he could only say that the Second Prince was a little cheated. The fifth option. 5. Praise Xie Lingxuan, her favor towards you will increase, and she will fall into a desperate situation and will surely die. Yu Ke not only complained: "The person is gone, what's the point of having a good impression?" This time, he simulated the reincarnation for ten years, and he came here only to seek the truth, not wanting to be involved in the disputes in the court. Yu Ke directly chooses option 3. Scolding Xie Lingxuan, she can get out of this crisis. As you choose. [You raise your eyes slightly and look at the woman named Xie Lingxuan. She seems to always speak for you and protect your dignity.] [Your lips curled up slightly, with a hint of disdain, and whispered: "It's just a piece of paper marriage contract. How can the Xie family's dog girl be a match for me, Lu Chen?"] [“A man should have a wife in his life!”] [You continue coldly, "She is a woman, yet she dares to discuss state affairs. Does she know how much food and grass the army has?"] [After these words were spoken, even Zhou Jinyu, who was standing beside him, was stunned, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.] [However, the atmosphere in the field changed instantly, and the voices of discussion surged like a tide.] [Someone was dissatisfied and said: "Shao Bao's words are too harsh."] [As the eldest daughter of the Xie family, I stood up for you, but you spoke so coldly to me. It's really sad.] [Su Yue's face was also filled with anger. Her cousin had done so much for you, but she was humiliated by you.] [It aroused sympathy for a moment, and even the Queen frowned slightly, as if she was displeased by your words. ] 【Only, Xie Lingxuan looked at you again.】 【The look in his eyes is complicated.】 I'm a little anxious, I'll revise the sentence later. I will be on the highway tomorrow, please follow my reading tomorrow, Tuesday. Thank you all readers for your data. Thank you.
