Book with Emperor

Chapter 97 Farewell
"Go in such a hurry, why don't you stay for a few more days?"

Qin Guanyue walked slowly to her side, and followed her to look at the huge peaceful city.

"Don't stay, it's too late."

Xiao Mingyang grabbed his long hair that was blown by the wind, his eyes were far and wide, "I once promised a person that when Linchuan was recovered, I would go to his grave and tell him that his memorial day will be in a few days."

Qin Guanyue's eyes paused slightly, and listening to the sound of the wind in her ear, she said slowly, "Sorry, Yue Wentian told me that I was impulsive."

Xiao Mingyang sneered, "It's rare, Qin Guanyue, to lose her composure for a child, unlike you."

"..."

"Have you made up your mind?"

"what?"

"It smells better."

"..."

"It's all because of him that you turn your hands into clouds and rain, so he is naturally happy. But when you become emperor in the future, he won't be able to see your ability."

"..."

"He spoils you and loves you, but in the end he will be afraid of you."

Xiao Mingyang's eyes showed sarcasm, "He's afraid that his great achievements will be all about your reputation, and he's afraid that you will take away his country just like you did for him back then."

"..."

Qin Guanyue raised her hands to straighten her temple hair, and said lightly, "I'm not stupid, I've kept my back."

"Follower? There was no place for you at that time, why let yourself fall into that field?"

"That's my own fault. I always believe that you have to pay for what you get."

Qin Guanyue laughed at herself, "I didn't come here for Anbang, nor did I come here for Dingguo. I just changed dynasties for my own selfishness. After all, it's just for myself."

"Obviously there is a responsibility to rule the world waiting for you, why should you wrong yourself to stir up the situation in the court?"

"Are you inviting me to Xiangwei?"

Xiao Mingyang smiled, but his eyes were very serious, "One person is below ten thousand, the glory of generations."

Qin Guanyue didn't raise her head, "I won't go."

"Why?"

"The three views are inconsistent."

"..."

Xiao Mingyang knew what she was talking about, and suddenly felt dull, "You are really brain-dead, are you sensible?"

Qin Guanyue laughed when she heard the words, "What, you look down on academic theory?"

"Sure enough, the arts and principles are different."

"Sorry, I study literature."

"Shouldn't it be?"

Xiao Mingyang raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Looking at the long river of history, the general trend of the world, the long-term division must be united, and the long-term division must be divided, have you never heard of it?"

"The world is too far away from me, and history is too long to me. I only care about my own hundred years."

Qin Guanyue's smile faded, and she sighed, "The five countries don't invade each other, so can't they live in peace?"

"Non-aggression? Peaceful coexistence?"

Xiao Mingyang sneered, "You can, I can. Daqin? Sheyu? Or Daxia who regards Jun as Canglan orthodox?"

"At least as long as I am alive, Daxi will not be confronted with war."

"A hundred years after you, the flames of war will rage and the lives will be destroyed."

Qin shook his head, "Human nature is greedy, as long as there are people, there will be war, it is inevitable."

Xiao Mingyang narrowed his eyes slightly, "So I want to cut off the flames of war."

"How do you cut off the flames of war? There is heaven beyond the sky, there are people beyond people, and there are people outside the sea. As long as there are people, there will be disputes and flames of war."

"But at that time, Xiangwei, and even Canglan, were strong enough to resist foreign enemies."

"It's just your ambition, leaving a name in history is indeed a big temptation."

"Ten years ago, Xiangwei was just a small country. It was a wild place in the world's population. Anyone could annex it and threaten it. Now, facing Daxia in the east, looking at Qinchuan in the west, and looking at the Central Plains in the distance, the situation of the five countries can be seen in Xiangwei. Left and right, if there is no ambition, no one can make it this far.”

"This is the difference between you and me. My greatest ambition is to live a stable life without any grand ambitions."

"That's because you haven't experienced it."

"..."

"Do you know what Xiangwei used to be like?"

Xiao Mingyang's light and floating voice sounded slowly, "There are only eighteen cities in a mere area, huddled in the coldest northern border, and nearly half of the people in the city will starve to death every winter. Marrying is a common thing. The princess of Xiangwei, even the lowest in Daqin Even the maids look down on you."

"..."

"Qin Guanyue, I'm not as lucky as you. I was born in Daxi, and when I passed through, I hugged Qin Tianjian's thigh."

Xiao Mingyang turned around and looked at her, without the usual contemptuous arrogance in his eyes, "I have seen massacres that you have never seen, I have suffered humiliation that you have not experienced, and Daxi has never experienced the war that Xiang has not experienced."

"so?"

"So you can't ask me to let go, and you can't expect me to pursue peace, and I won't agree."

Xiao Mingyang turned to look at Daxi Capital City in front of him, and said calmly, "Taking back Linchuan is only my first step, and it will also be the last moment of peace for the Five Kingdoms. There will be only Xiangwei in the world, and I, Xiao Mingyang, are destined to be recorded in the annals of history."

"..."

Qin Guanyue stared at the night in front of him, slowly exhaled a mouthful of white mist, and did not speak for a long time.

"You said that God gave us another chance to live just to let us go through these sufferings?"

"To borrow your words, you have to lose what you gain."

Xiao Mingyang curled his lips, "Although I lost a lot, I also got the most precious thing."

"The throne?"

"No."

"that power?"

"Do you really think I'm obsessed with power?"

Xiao Ming smiled, "Power is just a tool to achieve the goal. I have never forgotten what I want."

Qin Guanyue also smiled, "I remember it too, but unfortunately there is still a long way to go."

"If Qin Tianjian saved you, he will also destroy you. Your path will be even more difficult."

Xiao Mingyang looked at her with complicated eyes, "Qin Guanyue, when the day comes when you have nowhere to go, just go and find me. You can do everything again, except your life."

"Don't worry, I regret my life very much, besides..."

A smile appeared in Qin Guanyue's eyes, "Some people say that he cares about my life and death, and also cares about how well I live. I won't die easily."

Xiao Mingyang didn't even need to guess, "Yue Wentian?"

Qin Guanyue smiled without saying a word.

"I knew it."

Xiao Mingyang leaned on her shoulders, and looked at her probingly, "Did the two of you have a relationship for a long time? I don't believe that you would trust and value a chess piece that executes the plan so much."

Qin Guanyue put aside her hand and smiled, "I'm not an old cow, I don't like tender grass."

"What kind of grass is tender? If you really look for it according to your mental age, you should look for your master."

Xiao Mingyang simply hung his whole body on her body, and looked at her face with a wicked smile, "Yue Qingli's genes are very good, his son won't grow crooked, and he can match you, but..."

"Ok?"

"But oh, never give everything for him."

Xiao Mingyang stared into her eyes that were close at hand, and said slowly, "Never overestimate love, especially the love of an emperor, otherwise you will lose everything."

Qin Guanyue lowered her eyes, "...I know."
