Chapter 245 A Life or 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, their plan did not want to kill Zhu Yousong, a powerful figure 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 could easily kill Zhu Yousong at any time if they were 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 future, but they do not need to share this harvest with more forces.

Youdao is that you do the first day of junior high school and I do 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.

Therefore, keeping Zhu Yousong is to preserve the power of the Ming Dynasty royal family, so that they will have enough power to deal with those other forces in the future. As a check and balance, they will not need to face the pressure of those forces directly, which can reduce a lot of pressure. trouble.

After all, for the Ming Dynasty royal family, the forces represented by Pei Xuanjing have already usurped a lot of the royal family's interests, 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, taken together, 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 idle life.”

At this moment, he was already determined to die, with the mentality that he would rather be in pieces than in ruins.

Taoist Qingxu raised his hand to stop what he was saying, and then said to Pei Xuanjing, "Fellow Taoist, can you let me have a word with His Highness?"

Pei Xuanjing said calmly: "Taoist Master, please."

Taoist Qingxu nodded, and then said to Zhu Yousong: "Your Highness is not afraid of death, isn't he afraid of hearing a few words from a poor Taoist?"

Zhu Yousong sighed softly: "Although I knew that the Taoist Master was trying to provoke the general, I had to give the Taoist Master some face at the beginning."

Taoist Qingxu smiled slightly and did not speak directly, but chose to transmit the message into the secret.

"I dare to ask, Your Highness, if you have already made up your mind to die and decided to die to prove your will. Even if you die at the hands of Pei Xuanjing, you are not willing to give in."

"Yes, the blood of the men of the Zhu family cannot be compromised." Although he was a little surprised as to why Taoist Qingxu suddenly transmitted a secret message, he obeyed the other party's message and answered.

"Your Highness, do you think it's easier to live or to die?"

"Does the Taoist priest want to persuade this king to live a miserable life?"

"Pindao just wants to ask His Highness one thing," Taoist Qingxu said: "Even if Your Highness dies at the hands of Pei Xuanjing, he will make his ambition clear. Then after Pei Xuanjing dies, how should the Ming royal family follow suit? Are they going to follow suit? Is Your Highness going to die?"

"this"

"Also, His Highness has been dead for a hundred years. But Pei Xuanjing will not give up his purpose because of His Highness's death. And without a master like His Highness, the rest will have no room for resistance and can only let the other party take it. beg."

"Also, since Pei Xuanjing can do this, without His Highness's intimidation, will other forces follow suit and want to get back their own part? I wonder if His Highness has ever considered such a situation. Pass?"

"." Zhu Yousong was silent, speechless.

Because Qingxu's words were undoubtedly irrefutable, he could imagine that if he died, the next clan would have no chance of stopping Pei Xuanjing, and Pei Xuanjing would still be able to achieve his goal in the end.

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 into 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 go for a quick gain and conquer the Ming Dynasty? Regardless, I can’t help His Highness make a decision.”

With a sigh, Zhu Yousong smiled bitterly and said, "I never thought that the Taoist priest would be a good lobbyist."

He admitted that he was persuaded by Taoist Qingxu.

Taoist Qingxu was right. He would be happy to die, but the country that had been inherited for six hundred years in the Ming Dynasty would inevitably be ruined. He was the eternal sinner of the Ming Dynasty royal family.

Taoist Qingxu did not take credit for himself. He said calmly: "Your Highness is resolute and resolute, Qingxu admires him very much. But as a person in a position, Your Highness has a heavy responsibility and is involved in a serious matter. How can you care about honor and disgrace for a moment?"

"Haha. You don't need to comfort me." Zhu Yousong shook his head. Since he had made a decision, he would not care about these faces: after listening to the decision, it was up to Your Highness to make it, and I would never interfere.

"Haha, in that case. I will give Your Highness another piece of news." Taoist Qingxu said.

Zhu Yousong asked curiously: "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 and couldn't help saying: "This is true."

"There is absolutely no falsehood!" Taoist Qingxu affirmed.

The reason why he wanted to tell the other party this secret was to continuously increase the benefits that the other party could see in the future.

The more benefits that could be obtained in the future, the more difficult it would be for Zhu Yousong to give up.

Sure enough, just as Taoist Qingxu thought, Zhu Yousong was even more unwilling to give up easily after hearing the news.

Zhu Yousong's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "I know what to do."
