Qi Yu?
Suddenly hearing empress Zhou mention the little round dumpling. Yuan Buwei had no change in expression and continued to look at her indifferently.
Although not long after he came to this world, Qi Yu is indeed the closest person to him in this world. He didnt mind occasionally indulging him. But the other person is far from enough to affect him.
Since he gained consciousness, except for one person, he has never cared about anyones mood. Let alone compromising and giving way by changing his original decision.
System 999 comes online in time: [Wait, host!]
Previously, it shut down from the unexpected behaviour of the host many times. Now system 999 seems to have a new logical algorithm based on Yuan Buweis behaviour patterns.
It can finally vaguely guess what the host thinks.
But this does not make the system 999 excited, instead it makes it extremely depressed: [Think twice, you are not really a villain!]
At this time, system 999 is like an old minister who tries hard to persuade the emperor. The surface of the light ball is imprinted with loyalty.
[Our task is to wash white, wash white, wash white. Qi Yu is the protagonist in the original fate. The original Qi Mingxuan killing his father and usurping the throne is just a rumour. If you really do such a thing and kill the protagonists father, you will properly stand on the opposite side to the protagonist, and go down the dark road of villainy.]
[Its possible to wash white the original body. You cant wash white by proceeding like this host!]
If Qi Yu really wants to be my enemy, let him be. Yuan Buwei stated casually, The future relationship between me and him depends on his choice.
[The task-]
Didnt you agree to let me act as my true self?Yuan Buweis one question left system 999 speechless.
It really doubts whether it experienced a data disorder and accidentally read something wrong. For example, mistakenly regard the devils bloody light as a golden light of merit.
But it dared not say or ask.
Rest assured, isnt it fine as long as I make the whole world believe that I am a good man? I am well practised in this area
[But even if the whole world believes that you are a good man, the protagonist wont believe it orz.]
System 999 is tenacious.
[What the emperor did was to pave the way for Qi Yu to ascend the throne. Even when he was dying, he didnt forget to set a trap for the crown prince. He ordered to call the crown prince into the palace alone, so that the crown prince would be more suspected of killing the emperor and usurping the throne in the future. For Qi Yu, he is a true loving father. If you kill him -]
Correction. Yuan Buwei suddenly interrupted. What he did was not for Qi Yu, but for himself.
System 999 was suddenly distracted from the topic: [How do you know this host?]
Isnt that obvious? If he really loves this son, he will arrange everything for him early, rather than rush when things reach an end.
In the original plot, until the tyrant ascended the throne, Qi Yu was a dandy who didnt do his job and didnt show any talent and ambition. Only after the tyrant ascended and became more and more immoral, did Qi Yu grow rapidly from crisis.
After receiving the fate plot Yuan Buwei doubted whether he was hiding deeply, but no doubt remained after seeing the little dumpling a few times.
With this little guys ingenuity and acting skills, even a seven-year-old girl cant be deceived, not to mention the civil and military officials of a ruling dynasty?
If the emperor really wanted Qi Yu to be his successor, how could he be so free and undisciplined? This can be deduced from the current situation of Qi Yu.
After listening to Yuan Buweis analysis, system 999 was stunned: [Host that makes sense.]
As I said, everything was for himself.
Yuan Buwei could probably infer the emperors thoughts.
The crown prince has been in charge of military power for many years and countless military officials sincerely support it. It cant be deprived by the emperor. If the emperor orders to abolish the crown prince without reason, the side that loses power in the end is unsure.
Therefore, the emperor chose to destroy the crown princes prestige step by step, chip away at the crown princes power and then take over by himself bit by bit, so that everything was handed over smoothly.
Not to mention whether this method is too cruel, but it is indeed a perfect plan. However, there was an accident on the way, that is, the emperors body failed first.
According to the plot, the emperor will die in three years.
In his early years, he was an extravagant and licentious tyrant, this lifestyle hollowed out his body. In the past ten years, he seems to have changed a lot, but the beauties entering the harem never stopped. Its normal at nearly 50 years old to break down.
But he was unwilling.
Just imagine that the emperor had planned for so long and was about to reap the fruits of victory, but was finally defeated by an irreparable disease, while the crown prince was still young and strong. If all his calculations were in vain In this case, it is not surprising that the emperor had other ideas.
System 999: [So Qi Yu is actually just a spare wheel that the emperor had no other option but to choose? Its better to give the throne to him than to the crown prince?]
Being driven by Yuan Buwei, System 999 tried to analyse by itself like a studious student: [It makes sense. Maybe he called the crown prince into the palace alone, and his initial plan was to throw the cup as a signal for an assasination.
As for why he changed his mind later, most likely he is still reluctant to watch the great country he has struggled for many years finally fall into the hands of the powerful ministers.
After all, Qi Yu is young and has not yet grown up, so it is better to let the crown prince continue to stand in front.
Thinking along the hosts line of thinking, everything makes sense. System 999 is immersed in the joy of discovering the truth and thinking independently.
As an intelligent life that has been designed limited by the creator, its ability to jump out of inherent logic and develop new ideas is very weak. Now being driven by this host, it has actually learned to think actively and draw inferences from one clue. No wonder system 999 is so happy.
While system 999, immersed in happiness, it has completely forgotten its original intention at the beginning, which was to persuade the host not to do anything, and quietly white wash with peace of mind.
Looking at system 999, which was completely deviated from the original thought track, Yuan Buwei was satisfied.
Of course, he can directly close the system into the little black room. However he worries that if he does it too many times, his tool system might collapse one day and be unable to function.
It is better to continue to use this tool to travel, relaxed and happy :).
When communicating with System 999 in his consciousness, the flow of outside time is only a few seconds.
Empress Zhou looked at the eldest son who she had not spent time with for many years with tears in her eyes and begged bitterly, but only saw a smooth face full of indifference.
His brows and eyes were cool, like snow covering the green pine trees.
Yuan Buwei lowered his eyes and glanced at her. He didnt answer her words. Instead, he looked at the emperor curiously: There is one thing er chen doesnt understand, and hopes imperial father can enlighten.
Since you are so afraid of the crown prince and you even set up detailed schemes early on, why did you ignore the objections of the ministers and hand over to the crown prince hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses? When he spoke, his tone was very calm, as if he were high above the situation and overlooked everything. Was there no worry that the crown prince will rebel and use the entire army against imperial father?
This question has been a source of curiosity for a long time.
Judging from the emperors various actions, Yuan Buwei always felt that the other party seemed to be hiding some secrets, as if he knew the crown princes military talents from the very beginning.
If it was in his original world, a technique to understand the secrets of heaven would not be surprising at all. But here is clearly no different from the mortal world.
No matter how Yuan Buwei thought it over, he could not unravel this mystery. If it werent for this, he wouldnt waste so much time on the emperor.
He looked at the emperor inquisitively: Or, did imperial father long ago know a secret?
