Chapter 245 Life and death decision!
Pei Xuanjing looked at Taoist Qingxu, his meaning was obvious, it’s your turn to speak.
Taoist Qingxu also understood that it was time for him to speak out. After all, in their plan, they did not want to kill Zhu Yousong, a powerful man in the Ming Dynasty royal family.
For them, the value of keeping Zhu Yousong is far easier than killing the opponent.
Not to mention that for Pei Xuanjing and the others, they can easily kill Zhu Yousong at any time as long as they are willing.
But if Zhu Yousong is killed, it will be equivalent to weakening the strength of the Ming royal family.
Yes, they want to take the Ming royal family into their hands, but this does not mean that the Ming royal family has no power, which is meaningless.
According to their assumptions, in the future they will be able to control the big tomorrow, but they do not need to share this harvest with more forces.
Youdao means you will be on the first day of junior high school and I will be on the fifteenth day.
Pei Xuanjing could take the opportunity to use his unmatched power to plunder the interests of the Ming royal family for his own use, and then other major forces could also follow suit.
However, this is a situation that Pei Xuanjing and the others do not want to see.
So keeping Zhu Yousong is to preserve the power of the Ming Dynasty royal family, so that they will have enough strength to deal with other forces in the future. As a check and balance, they will not need to face the pressure of those forces. It can save a lot of trouble.
After all, for the Ming royal family, the forces represented by Pei Xuanjing have already usurped a lot of the interests of the royal family, and they will definitely not be willing to have more people usurp their interests.
They will definitely do their best to stop those people to protect their existing interests, and at the same time indirectly protect the interests of Pei Xuanjing and the others.
Of course, there is also an extremely bad possibility.
Then even if the Ming Dynasty royal family completely goes all out, lifts the table, leads the wolf into the house, brings in those forces, and then unites to deal with Pei Xuanjing and the others.
However, this is a choice that will inevitably hurt both sides. It requires an extremely strong determination of a strong man to cut off his wrist. They will not do this until the last resort.
And even if that happens, Pei Xuanjing and the others will have enough ways to solve it.
It can be said that, on balance, retaining the power of the Ming royal family currently has more advantages than disadvantages for them.
"Your Highness, please wait." Taoist Qingxu stepped forward and came to the two of them.
Pei Xuanjing smiled and said nothing. King Xiang Zhu Yousong guessed the purpose of Taoist Qingxu's visit and understood that he might be here to persuade him. He shook his head and said: "Taoist Master, if you want to persuade me, let's forget it. I, the king, I would rather die than live an ignoble existence."
At this moment, he has the intention to die, and he has the mentality that he would rather die than live in ruins.
Taoist Qingxu raised his hand to stop his words, and then said to Pei Xuanjing: "Fellow Taoist, can you let me have a word with His Highness?"
Pei Xuanjing said lightly: "Tao Please."
Taoist Qingxu nodded, and then said to Zhu Yousong: "Your Highness is not afraid of death, isn't he afraid of listening to the poor Taoist's words?"
Zhu Yousong sighed softly: "Although I knew that the Taoist priest was trying to provoke the generals, I had to give the Taoist priest a face at the beginning."
Taoist Qingxu smiled slightly and did not speak directly, but chose to pass on the message. The sound is secret.
"I dare to ask, Your Highness, if you have already made up your mind to die and decided to die to express your will. Even if you die at the hands of Pei Xuanjing, you are not willing to give in." "Yes, the blood of the Zhu family men cannot be compromised." He Although he was a little surprised as to why Taoist Qingxu suddenly transmitted a secret message, he still obeyed the other party's message and answered.
“Your Highness, do you think it is easier to live or to die?”
"Does the Taoist Priest want to persuade this king to live an ignoble existence?"
"The poor Taoist just wants to ask His Highness one thing," Taoist Qingxu said: "Even if Your Highness dies at the hands of Pei Xuanjing, his death will make his ambition clear. Then wait for Pei Xuanjing After death, what should the Ming royal family do? Will they die like His Highness? "
"This"
"But this Pei Xuanjing has already died. Won't Because His Highness died and gave up his own goals, and since there is no master like His Highness, the others have no room for resistance and can only let the other party take whatever they want."
"Also, since this is the case. If Pei Xuanjing can do this, without His Highness's deterrence, will other forces follow suit and want to get back their own part? I wonder if His Highness has ever considered this situation?"
"." Zhu Yousong was silent, speechless.
Because Qingxu's words are undoubtedly irrefutable. He can imagine that if he dies, the next clan will have no chance of stopping Pei Xuanjing. In the end, Pei Xuanjing will still be able to achieve his goal. .
And after Pei Xuanjing achieves his goal, those ambitious people will definitely not miss this opportunity. They will definitely swarm up like a pack of wolves and bite their interests.
"Whether your own momentary honor and disgrace is more important, or whether the Ming Dynasty's six hundred years of inheritance is more important, it depends on how your Highness decides. Should you endure the extraordinary humiliation and protect the Ming Dynasty royal family's inheritance, or should you just pursue it for a while? So fast, regardless of the Ming Dynasty, the poor Taoist can't help His Highness make a decision."
Sighing, Zhu Yousong said with a wry smile: "I never thought that the Taoist priest would be a good lobbyist."
He admitted that he was persuaded by Taoist Qingxu.
Taoist Qingxu said it right. He would be happy to die, but the country that has been inherited for six hundred years in the Ming Dynasty will inevitably be ruined. He is the eternal sinner of the Ming Dynasty royal family.
Taoist Qingxu did not take credit. He said calmly: "His Highness has a decisive and resolute temperament. Qingxu admires him very much. But in his position, His Highness has heavy responsibilities and important stakes. How can he care about the honor and disgrace of a moment."
"Haha. You don't need to comfort me anymore." Zhu Yousong shook his head. Since he has made a decision, he will not care about the face: after listening to it, how to make a decision? His Highness himself, Pindao will never interfere. .
"Haha, that's the case. Pindao will give His Highness another piece of news." Taoist Qingxu said.
Zhu Yousong asked curiously: "Taoist Master, please speak."
"The world is about to revive, and the shackles leading to the spiritual realm will no longer exist!"
Hiss!
Zhu Yousong took a breath of air and couldn't help but said: "This statement is true."
"There is absolutely no falsehood!" Taoist Qingxu affirmed.
The reason why he wants to tell the other party this secret is to continuously increase the benefits that the other party can see next.
The more benefits that are likely to be gained in the future, the harder it will be for Zhu Yousong to let go.
Sure enough, just as Taoist Qingxu thought, after Zhu Yousong learned the news, he refused to give up easily.
Zhu Yousong's expression changed slightly, and he said solemnly: "I know what to do."
