I’m The King Chapter 413: : Dying Miranda (Part 2)
After listening to Thorpe's words, Miranda was silent for a while, and when Thorpe was uneasy, Miranda finally spoke. "This is the reason why you are different from Sock, and it is also the reason why I choose, because you are calm. Sock is simple-minded, always thinking that with the iron hoof and sharp blade of our Donghu people, he can flatten the ground he wants to step on. Ping's opponent, such a guy, if he is just a general, he can conquer everything, but if he becomes a king, he will lead our family into the abyss, and there will be no redemption."
"Father, although the eldest brother is reckless, he is not guilty of death!" Thorpe said earnestly.
Miranda sneered, and looked at Thorpe with knife-like eyes, "Didn't you think about killing your big brother? No, you did, it's just that you don't have enough strength. Suoke sneaked back to Helin, didn't your men look around for him?"
Thorpe's face was pale, and he lowered his head in panic.
"As a king, you should be ruthless when you should be ruthless, and when you should be thick-skinned, you must be thicker than the city wall. You are not bad, although I have long wanted to kill your elder brother in my heart, but in front of me, you still have to be ruthless." Can pretend to be a respectful brother and friend."
"Father!" Thorpe trembled slightly.
"Don't explain to yourself." Miranda shook her head impatiently, "I chose you precisely because of your ruthlessness and heart, Thorpe, do you know why you don't have an uncle? "
Thorpe looked up in astonishment.
"Because I killed them all decades ago!" Miranda sneered, "That's why there are royal palace guards that can conquer the entire world."
"Thank you father for teaching!" Thorpe said.
"However, your brothers, except for Sock, are not a threat. There is no need to kill them all!" Miranda sighed. "Even Sock, let me solve it for you."
The hall fell into a deep silence, apart from the father and son, not even a single attendant could be found in the empty hall. Apparently kicked out by Miranda. The candlelight is faint, like a ghost land.
"For these years, I have been thinking about how we Donghu people can get involved in the Central Plains? Thorpe, have you thought about it?" Miranda said in a quiet voice.
"Father. Over the years, I have been studying the countries in the Central Plains. My son believes that if we want to become truly strong, we must change the foundation of our Donghu clan, recruit talents and advice, and establish a complete national system. .Attract talents from all walks of life to vote and establish a strong central government.”
"But this way, there will be a strong internal rebound."
"This war is a very good opportunity!" Pu Suo said: "Win this war, and the royal court's prestige will rise to an unprecedented height. We can use this war to maximize the growth of the palace. The strength of the guards, and at the same time weaken the strength of the opponents. At that time, as long as the royal court is determined, they can use blood and steel knives to implement this policy. China is unable to interfere with us again. Therefore, we must win this battle. As long as we have decades to breathe, I believe that our Donghu will be able to step into the Central Plains."
Miranda gasped and nodded, "Yes, winning this battle will win decades of respite, well, let's win this war."
He clapped his hands lightly. Along with the applause came two of Thorpe's old acquaintances, Miranda's confidants, Tulu and Yan Qi.
"Are you ready?" Miranda looked at Yan Qi.
"Your Majesty, the palace guards are ready."
"Very good. Tomorrow, I will invite the leaders of the various ministries to come to the royal court for a meeting. The Agu Ministry will deal with it tomorrow. Yan Qi, go ahead. If you catch Suoke, you don't need to say anything, kill him immediately." Miranda The tone of voice is irrefutable.
"Yes!" Yan Qi bent down to salute, then turned and left the hall.
"Thorpe, those who support your elder brother will die tomorrow. I will use the blood of these people to pave the way for you to the throne. I hope you can lead our Donghu clan to walk a bright road."
"Thank you, father!" Thorpe slipped down from the bed, threw himself on the ground, and fell on the ground. At this moment, the shock in his heart could not be increased. For the past few months, he had always thought that his father was seriously ill and unable to manage. This caused the eldest brother to be lawless. He sneaked back from Yulin, made waves, and lobbied all the major ministries to support him to sit on the throne. Unexpectedly, his father, who seemed to have never been out of the palace, held everything in his palm and watched his elder brother indifferently. where to perform.
Tomorrow, He Lin will be drowned in blood, and Thorpe can't help shivering.
"Get up, you will become a king soon." There was no emotion in Miranda's eyes, "Tulu, is Mr. Lu here?"
"Mr. Lu is just outside the main hall, and his family, apprentices and others are all under our control." Tulu bent down and said.
"Mr. Lu please come in."
Lu Shiren walked into the hall trembling, and seeing Miranda staring at him, his legs could no longer support him, and he fell to his knees on the ground, his lips trembling, but he couldn't say a word.
"Mr. Lu." Miranda leaned forward, staring at the secret agent of Dayan in front of him, but there was no disgust in his eyes, but only calm. "How long have you been in Donghu? Twenty-one years, or twenty-two years?"
"It's been twenty-five years since I returned to the king!" Lu Shiren trembled.
"Twenty-five years!" Miranda sighed, "I've known you for about twenty-one years."
"Yes, twenty-one years ago, the king was seriously ill, and it was the villain who diagnosed and treated the lord."
Miranda laughed, "That's not a disease, it's poisoning. Without you, Mr. Lu, I would have been so sad twenty-one years ago! Your medical skills are really worthy of the word "miracle doctor." How have I, Miranda, treated you in the past few years?"
"Your Majesty treats me with such kindness as a mountain."
Miranda laughed, "Yes, you saved my life, and I treat you well. You have a luxurious mansion in Helin, and you have the right to freely enter and leave the palace. You can hand over the powerful. How much top-secret information about Donghu has flowed into Dayan like this!"
Lu Shiren bit her lip tightly and remained silent. Thorpe on the other side turned pale with shock. Such a genius doctor who had served Donghu nobles for more than 20 years was actually Dayan's spy.
"You have stayed in Donghu for twenty-five years, married a wife, had children, bloomed and scattered leaves. I am afraid that you have already gotten used to the climate and human relations here. How much do you remember about your hometown?" Miranda looked at her eyes. The biggest leaker in Donghu's history didn't have much resentment, but chatted with him about homework.
"Hometown?" Lu Shiren's eyes were blank. He really doesn't have much memory of his hometown. Twenty years ago, when he was only in his thirties, he was ordered to come to Donghu. , from a young man in his prime, has reached the age of knowing the destiny.
"You hid it very well. If it weren't for the fact that you have shot more times this year, I really didn't realize that you, a person who has served my Donghu royal family for decades, turned out to be from Yan Kingdom. Spy, speaking of it, I really admire Ning Zecheng, it’s amazing, at that time, he was just a small person, and he started planning us, and once he made a move, he was our soft threat." Miranda smiled stand up.
"Your Majesty, Lu Shiren knew that he was guilty, so he didn't dare to ask His Majesty to forgive him. He only asked His Majesty to spare the villain's wife and children. They didn't know that the villain's wife is also from the Donghu tribe."
"I know that your wife is not only from the Donghu tribe, but also a partial branch of my royal family." Miranda said indifferently: "But tomorrow, many people's heads will fall to the ground, including mine. My own son, do you think your family will be spared?"
Lv Shiren slumped on the ground at once. He has been in Donghu for more than 20 years, and the Donghu people's behavior habits are not supportive. Let alone a member of the offshoot tribe, even blood relatives will show no mercy.
"Thorpe, go help Mr. Lu up and give Mr. Lu a chair!" Miranda said flatly, "Don't stare at you. If you weren't for Mr. Lu's master doctor when you were young, you wouldn't be alive today. Speaking of which, Mr. Lu belongs to my family, but there are countless living people!"
Thorpe looked angrily at the doctor he respected very much in the past, lifted him up with one hand, dragged a chair over, and stuffed him in the chair.
"Mr. Lu, send another report tomorrow. Of course, it will be the last one. If you do this well, I will not only not kill your family, but also forgive you." Miranda He smiled and said: "Our Donghu lacks a medical expert like you. Over the years, the disciples you have taught are of great benefit to us Donghu people. I have not forgotten these credits."
Swallowed with difficulty, Lu Shiren certainly knew what this meant, "I don't know what information the king wants me to pass back?"
"Let's just say I'm dead. Because of the Yan army's oppression, the royal court did not mourn in secret for the sake of peace of mind. Thorpe and Suoke fought for power, so that the royal court was divided into two factions. The royal court has lost Control over the entire tribe." Miranda said slowly. "After doing this, I will spare your family's life, Thorpe, and you must not embarrass Mr. Lu in the future. His medical skills can save countless lives, so let him be here Let Wang Tingli cultivate more talents for Donghu!"
"I remember it!" Thorpe said.
Tulu came over and handed Lu Shiren a stack of manuscript paper, "I have drawn up everything for you, you only need to transcribe the important ones, and then pass it on. Of course, Mr. Lu, you still have to You must tell us what other spies are in Helin City, we know that you are the leader of all the Yanren spies in Helin City."
Lu Shiren stumbled out of the hall, Miranda also waved, "Go down, I'm tired."
