Chapter 118 Past Events
“Twenty-five years ago, many people made choices!”
Sitting in front of the small stove, Mr. Yu took out the cooked pears and put them on the table. In the bowl, one of them was handed to Wu De.
"Try it, I got a basket of it from Baode Temple in Luoyang."
Wu De quickly took it, feeling terrified but also overjoyed.
If he went out and said that Mr. Yu burned pears for himself to eat, I'm afraid not many people would believe him.
Of course Mr. Yu didn't care what Wu De was thinking, nor did he care what outsiders thought. He carefully peeled off the burnt black skin on the top layer of the roasted pear, revealing the snow-white flesh inside. He put his spoon in and scooped it out, and the crystal pulp came into the spoon with steaming heat. He blew a few breaths, pursed his mouth, and swallowed it.
Seeing Wu De holding the bowl motionless, Mr. Yu smiled and said: "I'm old, and it's not easy to eat other fruits. But this roasted pear, it promotes body fluids and relieves coughs, and is good for the lungs. If you don't like it, Here, I'll ask them to get you something else!"
"No, no, no, it's good, I love it, I love it!" Wu De said quickly.
In fact, it doesn't matter to him what he eats. It doesn't matter. He eats whatever is available. The key is that he doesn't want to eat it.
If you take it out like this, it will probably make the eyes of the high-minded scholars outside fall to the ground and shatter into pieces.
"Have you also made a choice?" Wu De asked in a low voice.
Yu Entai shook his head, "I don't need to make a choice."
Wu De nodded, thinking that there are not many people in the world who have the confidence to say that there is no need to make a choice. Right?
But the person in front of me is definitely qualified.
No matter who wins the bet and has the last laugh, he will be respectful to this person.
“General He, our Great Yin, and Prime Minister Wei seem to have very different backgrounds, experiences, and conduct, but they all made the same choice. Does that mean that their choice back then was the right one? Where is it?" Wu De asked.
Yu Entai laughed.
"You have now become the fourth person on the Black Ice Platform, and you still have such a pure heart, which is great!"
No matter how you hear this, it doesn't sound like a compliment. Wu De felt a little guilty when he heard this.
"In the past, my main tasks were to set up hidden stakes and death chambers for Black Ice Platform, and also to do some specific things. I didn't need to think too much!" He said cautiously.
To put it bluntly, in the past, you only needed to execute, and you didn’t need to think about it.
“People like them choose an aspect not because of whether it is correct or not, but only because of whether it is in their interests or not, or whether they think it should be this way!” Yu Entai will only have one left. Zhang Lipi put the bowl in front of him and said.
“I can hear that there is a difference here!”
“There is a difference! The difference is that some are selfish and some are not!” Yu Entai said: “That’s it. Like He Qiku, in his own opinion, the choice he made back then was indeed made out of public motives and not mixed with any selfish thoughts. ”
"Actually, it's right if we don't see each other, right?" Wu De couldn't help but ask.
“The right and wrong of many things must be judged in the long river of history!” Yu Entai shook his head and said: “Since Zhou Zhi has let you know so much, I think he still trusts you. I'm very surprised, why does he have such trust in you, a high-level executive of Heibingtai? Network, in exchange for the safety of my companions outside the customs and the information we urgently need from outside the customs and Beiyuan!" Wu De said: "It should be regarded as a pure exchange of interests! They know for sure that I will not violate this agreement! , because once I violate it, my companions will die first. Their losses are insignificant in comparison."
Yu Entai nodded: "There is another thing you haven't figured out, that is, you are here. You are getting deeper and deeper into this matter. It can be said that you can no longer escape. You could not think about politics before, but you have to think about it now, especially when this matter involves He Qiku, Wei Zhengdao and you. People like Dayin, and after me.”
Wu De was stunned for a while: “I really haven’t thought about this. I just want both sides to get what they need. This is also normal in the intelligence community. Behavior. Not to mention that our interests are quite consistent, sometimes even enemies will exchange certain information." Yu Entai smiled and did not discuss this issue with Wu De in depth, but directly discussed it. The topic was brought back to twenty-five years ago.
"In that year, Chang'an flowed with blood. The prince, princess and their followers of Qin all died in that year, and even the traces of their existence were completely erased from the records. Erase! It's like people like them have never existed in this world."
Yu Entai said the words that made Wu De frightened.
"Is it the late emperor who wants to kill them?" Wu De felt his voice was trembling.
"It is the world's richest and most aristocratic families who want to kill them!" Yu Entai said calmly: "Even my Yu family, many people say they should be killed!"
"Why are they so angry and resentful?"
"It's outrageous and resentful!" Yu Entai seemed to be thinking about something, and then said after a while: "It's actually not wrong to say that. Today, this person's representative seems to have always been like this. People. Although their number only accounts for a very small part, their interests account for 99% of the world."
Wu De looked at Yu Entai with wide eyes.
"Think about it, when the prince and his wife want to dig out 99% of the interests these people have and give most of them to other people, what will these people think? How will they do it?"
< br>"If you want to destroy people's wealth, you are planning to cause disaster!" Wu De gritted his teeth and said, "Of course you are going to die."
"This is still the simplest layer on the surface!" Yu Entai said with a smile: "They still have the deepest pursuit. They are digging for the roots of the wealthy families and the foundation of the wealthy families. And among the wealthy families, outstanding people It's really like the prince who has crossed the river. When the princelings started planning to do this, these people had already seen the consequences of letting the prince ascend the throne, so they naturally wanted to fight back crazily."
"Old sir, the noble family. There are indeed too many outstanding people in the wealthy families, just like the Prime Minister, Dayin, and of course you. But with so many outstanding people, why is the world still getting worse every year?" Wu De asked. He seemed very rude.
"Good question!" Yu Entai clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Go straight to the core of the problem. Because, these outstanding people take care of their families first, and then the country. As for the people, they don't seem to be thinking about it. The country can be changed, but the family cannot be destroyed. No matter who becomes the emperor, he can't live without his family!"
"I'm not surprised that a wealthy family is like this, but why did General He come from a humble background? Made the same choice? And in the eyes of City Lord Zhou, General He's choice seems to be a huge factor!" Wu De asked curiously: "And I can confirm that General He is a good person. A loyal minister."
Yu Entai glanced at him with a half-smile.
"He Qiku was promoted by the prince all the way. From a humble person to the commander of the Zuo Camp of the Forbidden Army at that time, half of the Chang'an Forbidden Army was under the command of He Qiku. The prince at that time had great power. If nothing unexpected happened, Then it is inevitable that he will ascend to the throne. Therefore, killing him becomes the only option. "In that case, why betray the prince?" Wu De asked in shock.
“Someone found He Qiku back then and told him that if they failed this time, then the whole country would be at war, and war would be ignited in most parts of the country, unless the prince failed!”
"He Qiku is not a three-year-old child. He believes it when others say it?"
"Because He Qiku knows that what those people say is not false at all, and it is indeed the case, Prince If he hadn't died, the chaos in the country would have broken out at that time! Instead of delaying it for decades, Da Qin is still struggling to survive. From this perspective, He Qiku's judgment is not wrong! " Yu Entai said.
Wu De pondered for a moment and said: "If the prince ascends the throne at that time, then riots will break out across the country, but can I understand that the reason why these people want to kill the prince is not because they don't want to rebel, but because at that time, The power of the imperial court is still very strong. If they dare to act like this, they will definitely lose. Will the prince take this opportunity to kill them all?"
Yu Entai laughed and applauded repeatedly. , "I didn't expect that you, a person who is rarely involved in the political arena, could see through the strangeness here at a glance and find out the real problem. At that time, the Imperial Guards in the capital were still very capable of fighting, and the more than 100,000 fierce troops outside the Pass were still loyal to the imperial court. Yes, the Southern Suppression Army was so overwhelming that even the Southern Dynasty was afraid to breathe! However, he had been oppressed by wealthy families since he was a child. In his eyes, those people were too powerful, so he didn't lie. He didn't want the people of the world. He suffered disaster, so at the last moment, he betrayed the prince. If his Zuo Camp imperial troops had entered the capital when the rebellion broke out, the situation would have been reversed immediately. "
Wu De stayed for a long time and sighed. Take a breath.
“If the big pustule of the year had been exposed, even if the whole country would be in chaos, with the national power of the Qin Dynasty at that time, it would take at most four to five years to restore everything. Plan, then a new empire will be reborn from the ashes. That woman is the most amazing and talented person I have ever seen. Although she is a woman, she puts men like me to shame!"
" Now that there is chaos outside the pass and the town army has been defeated, can those people finally take advantage of the Qin Dynasty?" Wu De said angrily.
"Not bad!" Yu Entai smiled and said: "The person behind the scenes is a powerful person, right?"
"Unless this person dies, the world will never have peace!"
