Chapter 32 Goodbye(1/2)
There was a little silence in the deep and dark palace for a moment.
Then the younger brother's laughter sounded: "That child Xiaoqi is still intent."
"Don't you want to know what he said to me?" the brother looked at his brother and said.
"What is my uncle's right to listen to my words between father and son?" said the younger brother with a smile.
"He asked me about that child." The brother said lightly.
The younger brother raised his eyebrows slightly and did not speak.
"Yes, his memory is better than I thought." The brother continued.
"So how did my brother answer?" my brother asked.
He finally couldn't help but say curiously.
"Since he asked, I will tell him everything I know." The brother said calmly: "Anyway, it has been more than ten years. Even if he knows all this, what can he recover?"
"Everything that happened will not change."
"Is this the reason why he chose to leave?" the younger brother asked looking at his brother.
"He was disappointed." The elder brother did not answer his brother's words directly, but continued on his own: "I originally thought he would be angry, but he did not."
"He was just disappointed."
"Then I say goodbye to me."
"I don't think so. Men in our clan were born to conquer this world, so it's not a bad thing to go out for a walk while you're young."
"Besides, he is a man who is destined to sit on the Throne of Thorns."
"Yes, he's Sequence One." The younger brother nodded in agreement.
"But he told me that he was not interested in that position at all." The brother said with a smile.
"Everyone can't imagine how much magic the position has before they really sat in that position." The younger brother said softly.
"What about you?" the brother looked at his brother and said.
The younger brother shook his head and looked at his brother: "For the past thirty years, we have been our best friends, sharing the power on this throne. Everything you can give me has been given to me. What else can I not satisfy?"
The brother lowered his head and smiled, then raised his head to look at his close relative of his mother.
"How long ago did you start poisoning me?" he said softly, as if he had said something trivial.
He even said that there was no anger in his tone, only a slight curiosity.
The younger brother looked at his brother calmly and didn't say anything.
"I'm just curious." The brother said softly, not doing anything out of line.
"I once thought about what would happen if you knew this." The younger brother looked at his brother and said calmly: "But my brother's reaction was beyond my expectations."
"What should I react? I stood up and fought with you in anger, destroyed half of the palace, and then buried the dead mad king in the family's cemetery?" the brother said with a chuckling.
"If my brother had this reaction, I would be very happy, at least happier than now." The younger brother said to his brother, tears already appeared on his face.
"It's not a good feeling to kill my own brother." The brother said lightly.
"It's even more uncomfortable than killing yourself." The younger brother said, "But brother should understand that there are some dark roads that you can never look back once you take the first step."
"So when did this start?" asked the brother.
"Eleventh year ago." My brother spoke for a while.
"It's an interesting time." The brother couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, it started since the first month of the ancestor's death." said the younger brother.
"Our ancestors made us forget. In fact, our clan has always grown up in killing each other. The son killed his father, the minister killed his king, and we gain strength in endless blood. Then we bring horror to this world." The brother said Youyou: "Do you still remember? On the night when the ancestors passed away, she once called me to her bed and told me some things."
"For example?" said the younger brother.
"For example, she asked me if I could be like the First Emperor." said the brother.
The younger brother looked at his elder brother and said nothing.
The First Emperor was the founder of the Stir Empire and the Supreme Lord who shrouded the entire world in the shadow of this empire.
After his father, as the patriarch, died unexpectedly, the entire clan fell into chaos. He chose to stand up and quell all the unrest with the most iron-blooded means. The price was that he executed all his brothers and elders, so that all existences that threaten his status would sleep in his tomb forever.
"How did your brother answer?" said the younger brother.
"What I've done over the past eleven years is my answer," said the brother. "I used to think I succeeded."
Over the past eleven years, this brother has given his most trusted younger brother the power is extremely close to him, hoping to suppress all opposition voices and power through the way of brotherly governance.
But he never thought that the person he trusted the most was his most dangerous enemy.
"I'm sorry." My brother said sincerely.
He is really sorry.
"But I don't think what I'm doing is wrong," he continued.
"So I'm sitting here calmly now and talking to you." said the brother.
"So when did you know about it, brother?" asked the younger brother.
"Xiao Qi came to see me that day and told me about this." The brother continued.
"Xiao Qi is so smart." My younger brother exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.
"And I told him that I actually knew, so I thank you very much." The brother looked at his younger brother and said.
"So why did my brother do nothing?" my brother sighed: "In fact, even now, my brother still has a chance to turn the tables."
"This involves the second thing my ancestor told me." The brother looked at his younger brother and said.
"I even feel that my ancestors are still watching us now." The younger brother said to his brother.
"She has been watching this empire for three hundred years, and now only eleven years have passed." The brother said calmly: "Old ancestor told me that the rebellion of the Hundred Kings must not happen again."
The so-called Rebellion of Hundred Kings is when the founder of the empire, the Emperor Chu, died accidentally during the expedition. Because he did not make a successor, the originally huge empire suddenly fell into a complete war carnival.
The horror that almost enveloped the entire world was wiped out in an instant, and the humans in the entire world watched in a daze as the conquers who were originally united under one banner began to kill each other even more cruelly.
At the cost, the Ster Empire lost 70% of its territory and finally curled up in its original territory and began to lick its wounds for a long time.
The so-called ancestor is the most critical figure in ending the rebellion of the Hundred Kings.
"Brother." The younger brother could only say these two words.
"I can kill you." The brother said softly: "Even now, I am sure I can kill you."
"But then?" asked the brother.
"I'm going to try to kill the darkness behind you that controls you again. This is something I originally wanted to face with you."
"What you gave me was an unsolvable poison, and I didn't even know how much time I had left."
"I killed you and challenged the darkness behind you, and I myself was so weak that I could not maintain the overall situation. Can I really hand over this empire to Xiaoqi, who is only fourteen years old?" The brother looked at his younger brother: "This is a dead situation that he himself would not want to face."
"Brother, your biggest problem is that you are too sober." The younger brother said, "The trapped beasts are still fighting."
"But we are not beasts after all." The brother looked at his younger brother and said, "The empire must exist, and the clan must continue. This is the opportunity that the first emperor had exchanged for us at the cost of falling from heaven and dust, an opportunity to conquer the world in the sun."
"I don't know what I can tell you, but when you sit in this position, this is something you need to remember."
The younger brother listened quietly to his brother's teachings, and his tears never stopped.
"Why did you choose to tell me this today?" asked the younger brother.
"Because I really don't have much time." My brother said calmly.
"So I want to ask, what are you going to do after I die?"
The younger brother looked at his elder brother: "Can these be said here?"
"There are only two of us here, so there is nothing we can't say." The brother said calmly.
"Or I can tell you another thing, which is still related to the ancestors." The brother looked at his younger brother and continued, "The third thing that the ancestor told me was to look at Xiaoqi carefully."
"Xiaoqi was only three years old at that time." said the younger brother.
"Yes, Xiaoqi was only three years old at that time, and a three-year-old child, what qualifications did he have to attract the attention of his ancestors?" The brother looked at his younger brother: "But what happened next just proves that you and I are shallow, right?"
"He suddenly rose like a comet, and gradually became an existence that covered everyone's light. Even a year ago, he overwhelmed all his brothers and sisters and became the sequence one representing the successor."
"If I were given time, I would not even doubt that he would become the second initial emperor."
"So." The younger brother looked at his brother and said.
"So you have to kill him at all costs." The brother looked at his younger brother and said calmly.
The younger brother looked at his elder brother and didn't say anything.
"He is the child valued by his ancestors, he is the sequence of the empire's inheritance qualification. He has left this empire and looked for time and opportunity to continue to grow. If you don't kill him, he will come back one day and then kill you and take everything you have." The brother said calmly.
The younger brother laughed: "I even thought you were threatening me, brother."
It's like saying, you can't kill me, if you kill me, my children will avenge me.
To be continued...
