Great Tang Southern Emperor

"It was indeed an accident. It was just an affair between me and a woman that actually made her pregnant. As a result, not long after I learned the news, the Chengjianxi headquarters was breached by you, and you didn't even have time to treat her. What arrangement." Locke said with a wry smile: "If I were alone, I would naturally fight with you forever, even if you imprisoned me and exiled me, I would try my best to return to Datang to continue fighting with you, but it is not possible now ...

Just like what you said, this child has become my weakness, and it has also become a knife that pierces my strong heart, but it is also a gift from God... I can continue to fight with you, even if Even if Cheng Jianxi is broken by your people, it won't dampen my fighting spirit...

But I don’t want my children to live in such an environment—because I have come from this age, and what I have been told since I was a child is to be instilled with all kinds of hatred for Datang, and these things are almost full. my childhood……

So much so that other people's children can have a good childhood, but I only have all kinds of training and brainwashing... Even when I grow up, I will hide and live a life that is not much better than a mouse. If you are not careful, you will be caught, even if you don’t die, you will be exiled to the Jedi, life is worse than death... I don’t want my children to live such a life..."

"So that's the case, it's pretty much the same as what I thought." Li Zhen nodded slowly, which made sense.

This reminded Li Zhen of a movie "Killing a Life" that he had seen in later generations. Niu Jishi, played by Huang Bo, was a villain in the village. The people who hated him, and the villagers wanted to kill him, but failed repeatedly. In the end, the widow Niu Jiji hooked up with was pregnant with his child. , Take the initiative to carry the coffin to die, just begging the villagers to let the innocent children go.

In Li Zhen's view, Locke's thinking is actually similar to that of Niu Jiji. Although he was hated and hated by others, he had the power to resist, but because of the child, he was willing to give up his life and freedom, otherwise even if he was killed Locked in a place like the database, Li Zhen also felt that Locke still had the possibility to escape, unlike the current situation, willing to accept Li Zhen's arrangement—maybe this is the power of father's love, not as tender as mother's love, But at critical moments, they can risk their own lives, even ideals, for their children.

"What about your opinion?" Locke stared at Li Zhen closely, with a trace of panic in his eyes: "I am willing to give you all the secrets of Cheng Jianxi in exchange for my child's life. I don't know what you want What I can tell you is that Cheng Jianxi is far from being as simple as you imagined. The power of Cheng Jianxi that you have destroyed and mastered is only the tip of the iceberg of Cheng Jianxi, less than six times the full power of Cheng Jianxi. Cheng, under this [-]%, there is still more than [-]% of the power hidden. Although it is not much, if I continue to fight with you, it can also bring you troubles. If I choose to hide it, It won't take many years to get back to the top again...

This [-]% power can only be used by me and my token, but your actions are too fast, and I have not activated these powers, you have already ended the battle, and even I was captured by your spies, otherwise you will be regarded as After killing Cheng Jianxi, you will never be safe after I escape... I can give you all of these..."

In order to convince Li Zhen, Locke threw out a huge bargaining chip again.This bargaining chip is indeed enough weight, falling into Li Zhen's ears is almost like Huang Zhong Dalu, deafening, he really did not expect that he has already counted so carefully, Cheng Jianxi still has nearly half of the fish that slipped through the net, This is really shocking, and I have to say that Locke is really terrible.

Chapter 1243 Locke's entrustment + death

Chapter 1: Locke's Entrustment + Death

"What's your opinion?" Throwing out his last and biggest hole card, Locke seemed relaxed. Anyway, his last territory has been taken out. Even if Li Zhen refuses to agree, he has nothing to do. Relaxed and nervous What's the difference?That being the case, why not choose to take it easy?A frowning face not only will not make people feel pity, but will only make people laugh.

"Of course there is no problem. Even if you don't show this hole card, I won't trouble your child—I can let you go, let alone just a mere child. Of course I can Let him go. Don't worry, I will send this child to a charity home, and when he grows up, I will send him to the Youth Army or Wentian Shuyuan according to his qualifications, and train him to be a good person for society. Useful people." Li Zhen agreed very happily, even if Locke didn't throw the last chip, he didn't intend to kill Locke's child.

As he said, he can even forgive Locke's life, let alone a mere unborn child.It's just a child, so what is it?Even if he finally grows up and continues to destroy Datang, it will be 20 years later, and how powerful will Datang be in 20 years?How much prestige Li Zhen will have, no one can say for sure, but it is conceivable that the national power of the Tang Dynasty in the future will be at least ten times that of today.Under this level of national power, even if Cheng Jianxi is revived, it may be difficult to cause a little bit of damage to Datang, let alone a young man in his 20s—unless he is also a time traveler, but obviously this probability not big.

Therefore, in Li Zhen's view, raising Locke's children and cultivating them into talents is already the best of benevolence, and Locke should also accept such a result.

It's a pity that Locke obviously doesn't think so, and he shook his head: "You know what I want is not this, what I need is you to help me raise this child personally..."

"Me?" Li Zhen was surprised: "Why did you choose me? You must know that my current situation is not very good. Nowadays, almost all the aristocratic families in Datang are against me. Speaking of which... once I fail in the competition, then I, including my wife and children, will die in the hands of the Heavenly King, so if you hand over your child to me at this time, aren't you afraid that your child will be implicated by me?"

"Aristocratic family? Hehe..." Locke chuckled lightly, "It's not that I look down on them. These scumbags may have some strength, but they fight each other fiercely. If you want to unite them, it's like going to heaven. Difficult...Even if the king of heaven gave them the promise of the fiefdom, they would not be of one mind. Instead, they fought even more fiercely for the sake of gaining credit and labor for the fiefdom...In such a situation, you may still have a little possibility of unifying them Sex, but the king of heaven is more than inferior to you, with his courage, it is absolutely impossible to integrate them completely...

Not to mention that your strength is not as small as it appears on the surface... We have specially investigated you and found that you have been preparing for the battle since you were very young, which means that you are fully prepared for today After 20 years... 20 years of development, even our Cheng Jianxi can develop so strong, don't you tell me that your power is not as good as Cheng Jianxi?So you will never fail at all, and you will definitely be the one who seizes the throne in the end. "

"Zheng!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Locke said this, Yuchi Baoqing, who was accompanying him, drew out his portable sword and put it on Locke's neck: "Sure enough, our speculation is correct, you really have connections with the outside world... otherwise you are How did you know that the Heavenly King was conspiring with the family?"

"Put down the weapon." Li Zhen frowned slightly, and softly reprimanded: "We are discussing important matters, so don't just interrupt at will."

But this time Yuchi Baoqing didn't listen to him, and instead argued with his neck: "Your Highness, you don't know, this Locke looks gentle and peaceful, but in fact he is extremely treacherous. We have long suspected that he and the outside world There is a connection, and now it seems that it is indeed the case... And handing over the child to you is really an act of evil intentions, and we really have to guard against it."

"I harbor evil intentions? Where do you start with this?" Locke asked so strangely that he didn't even care about the sword on his neck.

Even Li Zhen was very curious: "I am also very surprised why you say that?"

"Isn't this simple?" Yuchi Baoqing said with a face of course: "Since your Highness is going to adopt Locke's child, in order to give this child a reasonable origin, you will definitely publicize that this child is your own flesh and blood. For one thing, in the eyes of the people of Tang Dynasty, Locke's children are the real royal blood, and they are qualified to compete for the artifact in the future. With the secret help of Cheng Jianxi's old man, they may not be able to seize the throne...Your Highness, this is a legacy of raising a tiger. ..."

"Papa papa!" Locke couldn't help applauding, applauding while applauding: "It's amazing, it's really amazing, I didn't even think of this-it's worthy of being a person who can be a naval district chief, see People in the future will look down on you, Yuchi Baoqing, but think about it, how can you be an ordinary person if you can manage the Bohai Navy District so powerfully?"

"Hmph, even if you praise me so much, I won't thank you." Yuchi Baoqing looked arrogant.

"My God..." Li Zhen clutched her forehead, speechless, and regretful in her heart, why did she choose such a hot guy as the chief of the Bohai Navy District at that time?Is there no one in Datang?

"..." Fang Yiai raised her head and asked the sky speechlessly.

"Baoqing, actually...forget it..." Cheng Chuliang, who was also accompanying him, hesitated to speak.

"..." Qin Huaiyu stayed away from Yuchi Baoqing even more, with a disgusted look on his face, as if saying that I don't know him, so don't ask me.

"What? Is there something wrong?" No matter how stupid Yuchi Baoqing was, seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, he probably knew that he might have done something stupid, so he couldn't help asking a little guilty.

"Of course..." Li Zhen was about to explain to him, but when she saw Yuchi Baoqing's ignorant expression, she immediately lost the desire to speak, and just perfunctorily said, "Eh... it's actually not wrong, your concern That's right, the angle of view is also very unique. If it weren't for you, I would never have thought that there would be such a hidden danger in Locke's plan... But Baoqing, in fact, you don't have to worry about this problem, because you It is not very likely that your worries will appear... You have to know that a child's growth is cultivated from an early age. If I train this child according to the template of waste, do you think this child will have any future? What's more, with my ability, if I can't even fight against a small child, then I don't want to be an emperor, and I can just be a happy prince in this life."

"That's right, Your Highness, how could you still not be able to beat a little boy? It's because your subordinates are thinking too much." Yuchi Baoqing rubbed his head and suddenly realized.

"It's good to understand, by the way, I'm a little hungry, go and see if there's anything to eat, and get some for me." Looking at Yuchi Baoqing's silly look, Li Zhen couldn't laugh or cry, and could only send him away. go out.

"But this subordinate still wants to protect Your Highness..."

"Oh, go if you want, we still have us here, what are you worried about?" Cheng Chuliang pushed Yuchi Baoqing out and closed the door.

"I made you laugh, my subordinate is not very smart." Li Zhen said to Locke with a little apology.

Locke said with a smile: "No, on the contrary, I am very envious of you having such a loyal subordinate, and what I said is indeed the truth. Yuchi Baoqing's ability to manage the Bohai Navy District so prosperous is really extraordinary."

"Hehe." Li Zhen didn't answer, and he thought the same way deep down in his heart. Even though Qin Huaiyu is the real master of Bohai Naval District, Yuchi Baoqing's ability is also very good. After all, it is impossible for Qin Huaiyu to do everything Handle it alone.It's just that Yuchi Baoqing's mind is one-sided, and sometimes it's easy to get confused. A huge shortcoming - otherwise, Li Zhen plans to hand over all the Bohai Navy District to him, and reassign Qin Huaiyu to other places.

"Let's not talk about that, let's continue the topic just now." Locke laughed and said, "The reason why I entrusted my son to you to raise him, you should understand my intention, right?"

Li Zhen didn't deny it either: "I understand, you want to protect your child, right?"

Locke stared blankly at Li Zhen: "It's a joy to talk to a smart person, and you deserve to be my opponent for life."

"It's nothing. After all, you said it yourself, you want to give your child a faster childhood. If your child is just sent to the hands of ordinary people, then his final result is likely to be the same as when you were a child. It’s the same as if you were found by your subordinates and took him away from his adoptive parents and took him to a place where no one knew him. He was trained and brainwashed, and after he was brought up, it would be a new Locke, this is not what you want to see. Only by my side is the safest, only by putting the child by my side, then even if the remnants of Cheng Jianxi know the identity of the child, I will be by my side to protect , and no one can take him away from me..."

"That's right, that's it." Locke looked at Li Zhen seriously: "This is my request, as long as you agree, I can hand over everything about Cheng Jianxi to you... As for how good you are to the child?" Well, that doesn't matter."

"You can rest assured that I will train your child to be a talent in the future." Li Zhen solemnly promised: "Although it is impossible to train him to be a famous minister and general, it is still no problem to train him into a generation of romantic talents. "

"It's best not to do this." Locke shook his head unexpectedly: "Although I handed the child into your hands, I just wanted you to protect him, and I didn't make him a world-renowned figure, because The more fame and wealth, the easier it is to bring people into crisis. In fact, what I want most is to let him live a mediocre life. As long as he lives in peace and stability, and then marry a wife and have children, I will be satisfied."

"That's fine, it's easier to handle." Li Zhen promised, "Then I'll just train him as a playboy."

"Thank you so much... It's a pity that I can't see my child born..." Locke smiled, and then his cheeks collapsed, and there was only a muffled sound, and a stream of blood flowed from his mouth .

"You..." Li Zhen was taken aback suddenly, and was about to step forward, but Locke pushed him away, pointed to the "Jungle Survival Guide" he put on the table, and smiled slightly.

"Your Highness." Qin Huaiyu quickly stepped forward to support Li Zhen, while Cheng Chuliang and Fang Yiai also hurriedly checked for Locke.

"Your Highness, he committed suicide by biting his tongue." Fang Yiai saw Locke's current situation after just a little inspection.

People who bite their tongues and commit suicide will not die on the spot, but there will still be a period of time to react. Li Zhen stepped forward and looked at Locke with a complicated expression: "Why are you doing this? I said I would spare your life. I'm not the type to break my word."

"..." Locke still kept smiling, facing Li Zhen's question, he just shook his head slowly, with a relaxed expression on his face.

"I understand. After all, you are a generation of heroes. Being exiled to death is indeed the greatest insult to you. I didn't think carefully." Li Zhen took a deep breath, wanting to see that Locke already had the will to die, even if Li Zhen didn't kill him. He, he will never live.

"Don't worry, I will treat your child as my own and bring him up. I will do what I say. As for you, I will bury you in the Wa Kingdom."

"..." Locke looked grateful, and then glanced at the "Jungle Survival Guide", and then glanced at Li Zhen, with a little provocation in his eyes.

"You really refuse to admit defeat... Even if you are dying, you will leave me with a difficult problem... But don't underestimate people, I will definitely crack the secret in person." Li Zhen shook her head helplessly, Put the Jungle Survival Guide away.Locke's meaning is already obvious. All his secrets have been hidden in this book, and this book is also his last provocation against Li Zhen. If Li Zhen can decipher this book, that's all. He can't bear to break the secret inside, so don't blame him for breaking his promise.
