Douluo: Reborn Xue Ke, determined to protect Qian Renxue

"My dear father, I thank you!" Xue Ke knelt down on one knee.

Xue Ye didn't know that Xue Qinghe had long hated Xue Beng and Xue Xing and wanted to get rid of them.If Xue Qinghe gets rid of the two of them, then he will have great power and no one can control him anymore.But Xue Ye didn't want to use the blood of Xue Beng and Xue Xing to pave the way for Xue Qinghe.

Family ties were only part of the reason. Xue Ye had been the emperor for so many years, and even if he did not lead the Tiandou Empire to prosperity, the emperor's mental skills were indispensable.

If Xue Qinghe loses all constraints and no one can restrict his rights, then the lives of every citizen in the Tiandou Empire will depend on Xue Qinghe's thoughts.

Absolute power will only corrupt people absolutely. Xue Ye knows this truth very well. After all, he has sat on the throne of the emperor for so many years.

So, Xue Ke was put on the stage by Xue Ye.

Xue Ye knew that although Xue Ke and Xue Qinghe had a deep relationship, they would never tolerate Xue Qinghe doing such unscrupulous things.

Xue Ke is the rope Xue Ye made for Xue Qinghe, the rope that ties the wild horse Xue Qinghe to prevent him from losing control one day in the future.

This technique of check and balance is not just played by Xue Ye, but has been around for a long time.

As Xue Ye's younger brother, Xue Xing was once one of the contenders for the throne, and he also held a certain amount of military and political power. However, why can he still survive to this day?

Because Xuexing is the rope and the constraint left by the late emperor to Xue Ye.

The art of checks and balances is the "family heirloom" of the Tiandou royal family and is passed down from generation to generation.

Therefore, in the thousands of years since the Tiandou Empire was founded, although there has been no wise king, there has also been no tyrant.

Emperor Xueye waved his hand feebly: "Qinghe, Xiaoke, you go down first, I want to take a good rest."

"Yes, I will retire."

Xue Ke and Xue Qinghe slowly exited the study.

Tiandou City, the prince's residence, Xue Qinghe's study.

Xue Qinghe took off his disguise, and with a flash of golden light, he returned to his appearance as Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue sighed: "Xiao Ke, I want to ask you something."

"Sister Xue, just ask."

"Xiao Ke, now, will you still support me as the emperor of the Tiandou Empire?"

Xue Ke was slightly shocked, but her expression remained as usual.

"Sister Xue, I..."

Qian Renxue interrupted Xue Ke: "Xiao Ke, don't answer me in a hurry. I don't want to hear lies. I can see your expression today. We have been together for so many years. What are you thinking in your heart?" I still know a little bit about it, and I hope you can think about it before answering my question."

Xue Ke lowered his head and remained silent for a long time before looking up at Qian Renxue again.

"Sister Xue, forgive me, I was moved by what my father said. After all, I am his daughter and the princess of the Tiandou Empire! My father has reached the age of sixty and has been suffering from illness all year round, but he is still working for the Tiandou Empire. , working hard to protect the Xue family's country and country. I am really conflicted in my heart, and the guilt in my heart is like a poisonous insect gnawing at my heart. I really don't know what to do now."

Qian Renxue looked at the miserable look on Xue Ke's face and felt a pain in her heart.

Qian Renxue walked up to Xue Ke and took Xue Ke into her arms.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoke, I made it difficult for you."

Xue Ke hugged Qian Renxue with her backhand and smelled the orchid fragrance on Qian Renxue's body without saying a word.

Qian Renxue let go of Xue Ke and sat down beside her.

Qian Renxue's golden eyes looked deeply into Xue Ke's brown eyes, and saw the struggle and pain in her heart.

"Xiao Ke, in a few years, I will successfully inherit the position of angel god, and eventually I will ascend to the divine world. Therefore, even if I become the emperor, I will not be able to do so for a long time. Since I started the angel god exam, I have already After thinking about it, it would be more appropriate for you to be the emperor."

"Sister Xue..."

Just as Xueke was about to speak, Qian Renxue stretched out a jade-like finger and pressed it on Xueke's small cherry mouth.

"The Tiandou Empire belongs to your Xue family. I, a fake, have occupied the position of crown prince for so long. I should have abdicated long ago. Xiaoke, your political talent and cultivation talent are not inferior to mine. The Tiandou Empire's Emperor, you are worthy of your title.”

"Xiao Ke, didn't you tell me in Wuhun Hall some time ago that your ambition is to establish a heart for the world, to establish a destiny for the people, to inherit the unique knowledge of the saints, and to create peace for all generations. You can only become a Only by being the emperor can you better realize your ambitions. I don’t think I have as great feelings and noble sentiments as you. If you become the emperor, you will only do better than me."

"Sister Xue, thank you! The person who understands me best in this world has always been you." Xue Ke was very touched.

During the few months after being separated from Qian Renxue, Xue Ke often felt depressed and hesitant, "I want to express my thoughts to Yao Qin. I have few close friends, and no one will listen when the string is broken."Xue Ke's only close friend is Qian Renxue.

Only Qian Renxue truly understands Xue Ke. Naturally, Xue Ke also understands Qian Renxue.

Xue Ke looked at Qian Renxue and said sincerely:

"You think of it as a rock, and I think of it as pampas grass. Pampas grass is as tough as silk, and a rock cannot change. I hope that the relationship between us, like a rock and pampas grass, will never change."

Qian Renxue smiled slightly and looked at Xue Ke quietly. Xue Ke also looked at Qian Renxue quietly, smiling at each other, saying nothing.

……

The next day, after the morning court, Xue Qinghe and Xue Ke took the initiative to find Emperor Xue Ye.

"Is there anything else going on with you two brothers and sisters?" Xue Ye asked doubtfully.

Xue Qinghe looked at Xue Ke.

"Father, I would like to ask my father for something, please allow me."

"Oh? What is it?"

Xue Ke paused and then said: "It is the Vast Sea Universe Cover stored in the royal treasury."

Xue Ye smiled and said: "I remember that you liked to sneak into the treasure house when you were a child. If the guards hadn't discovered it in time, you, a little devil, would have almost stolen the national treasure, the Vast Sea Universe Cover."

Xue Ke scratched his head in embarrassment: "Father, you are making fun of me again. When I was a child, I was just curious about what the Vast Sea Universe Shield was, so I stole it."

"Although the Vast Sea Universe Shield is the national treasure of our Tiandou Empire, it is mostly symbolic. It's okay if you want my father to give it to you, but can you tell me why you have always been obsessed with it?" Xue Ye asked.

Having long expected Xue Ye to ask this question, Xue Ke rolled her eyes and spoke out her prepared remarks.

"Father, I don't know why, but since I was a child, there has been a voice in my heart calling me, asking me to get the Vast Sea Universe Cover. When I saw it for the first time in the treasure house, it It seems to have an infinite attraction for me, attracting me to make it my own.”
