Chapter 220 The Emperor is Not Worthy of Pity (Subscription Request)
The man opposite Lu Jing had a sloppy beard, a thin and haggard face, and was wearing coarse cloth clothes and a straw hat, looking like a down-and-out wanderer.

But such a down-and-out wanderer was not interested in Lu Jing's arrival and was not very respectful.

The Jianghu guest said in a hoarse voice: "Well, long time no see."

After Lu Jing sat down, Jianghu Ke poured tea for him.

Lu Jing picked up the rough tea on the table and took a sip, then said with a smile: "To be honest, I didn't expect you to do such a big thing."

The Jianghu man's eyes, which were heavily circled, showed fatigue and confusion.

He raised his eyes and stared at Lu Jing.

Those eyes were weathered and dull as gray.

He looked at Lu Jing, who was still full of vigor and vigor, and asked in confusion, "Your new student... can actually see the future."

The Jianghu guest’s thoughts seemed to instantly return to that snowy night three years ago.

At that time, he had great power and was the prime minister of Dayu.

Even the emperor treated him with great respect.

But now...

Zhang Taiyue's name is almost wiped out from the world by His Majesty today.

The person opposite was none other than the deceased Zhang Taiyue, the former Prime Minister of Dayu, who once held great power in the court, was skilled in state affairs, and was the one who extended the life of Dayu.

Lu Jing ignored Zhang Taiyue's sigh and asked curiously, "How did you do it? When I heard about your obituary, I took a special look. From the perspective of luck and fate, you are definitely dead."

Zhang Taiyue snorted and laughed: "After all, I have been a minister for so many years, and I have been the Prime Minister for so many years. I know many secret techniques, and I have many extraordinary people under my tutelage. This is just the way the Emperor Daozhong faked his death and escaped."

"Originally, I had a backup plan. I wanted to see who would jump out and disrupt my century-old law after I died."

"When they jump out, I will come back with full force and wipe out all these villains."

Lu Jing smiled: "But you didn't expect that the one who hated you the most was actually His Majesty."

Zhang Taiyue's already scruffy face suddenly turned pale again.

His eyes were filled with pain.

He couldn't figure it out.

There is also the great pain of being betrayed.

Ever since the current emperor ascended the throne, he has been wholeheartedly and sincerely trying his best to teach him everything he has learned.

I just hope that he can become a wise ruler.

Even if that doesn't work, as long as he maintains his laws, Dayu can continue its prosperity for another hundred years.

A hundred years later, Zhang Taiyue believed that there would naturally be a ruler who could revive the country, and ministers who could revive the country, and so on.

As for the resistance that His Majesty may encounter in maintaining the law... Zhang Taiyue was just trying to clear the obstacles for His Majesty and his law by faking his death.

But he never expected that after his "death", the first person to jump out and overthrow others would be his Majesty, whom he regarded as his own son!
Lu Jing said calmly: "I know you have devoted a lot of effort to His Majesty. But you forget that he is one of the most powerful people in the world, and you also forget that he is too young. Young, full of ambition, but suppressed by you."

Zhang Taiyue hurriedly said: "But he obviously respects, honors, and even loves me!"

Lu Jing spread his hands: "So your Majesty is very smart."

"If I remember correctly, Eunuch Feng Bao and Queen Mother Li both trust you, right?"

Zhang Taiyue frowned: "I am not worthy?"

Lu Jing gave a thumbs up and said, "You are a perfect match, a top match. But you are too powerful. So powerful that your majesty can't see the possibility of overthrowing you, so he has to love you. Because he is afraid that you will become Yihuo."

Zhang Taiyue's face turned pale again!
Iho...

The powerful ministers deposed and enthroned the emperor...

I see…

I see! !
Zhang Taiyue's breathing suddenly became rapid, and a strong feeling of dizziness hit his mind, making it difficult for him to control himself. Seeing this, Lu Jing on the opposite side immediately took out a bottle of pills from his sleeve and handed it to him: "Protect your heart and nourish your spirit."

Zhang Taiyue did not suspect anything and immediately took it and poured several pills into his mouth.

The pill melted in his mouth, turning into a cool breeze that penetrated into his heart and mind, allowing him to calm down quickly.

Then he said with a bitter look in his eyes: "But I have never had such an intention!"

Lu Jing shook his head.

With Zhang Taiyue's wisdom, how could he not understand all this?
It’s just that he was too deeply involved in the game, and even if he saw it, he wouldn’t believe it.

What's more, Emperor Wanchang is very smart and has always disguised himself well.

Lu Jing stopped talking and let Zhang Taiyue on the opposite side think it through himself.

Soon, Zhang Taiyue raised his head and said resignedly, "I understand. But with your Majesty's current behavior, I'm afraid that the hard work of more than a decade since the previous emperor will soon be wasted!"

He had felt guilty towards the people of the world, so Zhang Taiyue looked at Lu Jing opposite him and said, "Lu Jing, even if it's for the sake of the people of the world, do you have any solution?"

Lu Jing shook his head: "Just let the ship sink naturally. All I have to do is stand on my own wave and watch it sink."

Zhang Taiyue frowned: "But..."

Lu Jing raised his hand to stop him, "They are all the same."

"There is no unsinkable ship in this world."

"Everything in the world is moving from order to disorder. Even the new order I have established will gradually reach a dead end in the future. From the perspective of historical materialism, this is inevitable."

“What we have to do, what we can do, is to choose a wave in this torrent of worldly affairs and stand on it.”

“If there is a wave in the future that is better and stronger than mine, I will choose to jump on that wave without hesitation.”

"Besides, do you think that apart from you and me, no one else in this world can understand this? In fact, everyone understands it. It's just that they have no choice because of the interests they have."

"If they were to jump off the current wave, the people around them would jump up and kill them the first time."

With Zhang Taiyue's wisdom, how could he not understand these principles?

Coupled with Emperor Wanchang's betrayal, he saw even more clearly the corruption and darkness of the Dayu Dynasty.

I understand that no matter how much work is done on this big ship, it is just repairing the broken hull.

In comparison, Lu Jing was much more sober.

He started from scratch and built a steel warship according to his own wishes.

Zhang Taiyue sighed: "What a pity for the hundreds of years of foundation of Dayu..."

Lu Jing smiled when he heard this: "What a pity?"

"Throughout history, everything has been a pity, except the emperor."

Lu Jing's tone was full of sarcasm: "Do you think the emperor doesn't know the various predicaments in the world? The person who holds the greatest power in the world knows better than anyone what is going on in the world."

"But for the emperor, it doesn't matter where the ship of the world will go soon. The most important thing is that he must be the master of this ship."

to this end.

No matter how many people died, they were just numbers to the emperor.

It’s still a number that you may not be able to remember.

It's the same for any emperor.

This is true even for emperors who have accomplished great things.

The emperor must be unkind and must treat all things as straw dogs.

Across from him, Zhang Taiyue raised his eyes and stared at Lu Jing: "So, what about you? You are almost the same as the emperor now, right?"
