Emperor Meng didn't want to be a chess piece, let alone an abandoned one, so he tried his best to fight for it, and the other princes naturally did the same.

The only thing that can guarantee that they will no longer be threatened by being "sent away" is to sit on the dragon chair, and there is only one dragon chair, and there is only one final winner.

Therefore, the battle for the heir apparent is full of bloodshed. Whether it is the prince whose mother's family is powerful and has the upper hand, or the prince whose mother's family is weak and has no chance of winning, in the end they will use all possible means.

Poisoning, assassination, attacking children, seducing the other party's wives and concubines, etc., any method that can increase one's chances of winning can be used.

The quarrelsome princes hate each other, hate each other, but inexplicably cherish each other. After all, the rabbit dies and the fox grieves the other.

The Emperor of Meng thought that he was resentful of his father and the ancestors of Meng. If it weren't for the incompetence of his ancestors, and if it wasn't for his father's lack of virtue, why would all the royal bloodline live in such fear?

They are both small countries, and even Meng is considered to be relatively powerful among many small countries. Why do the Meng royal family have to struggle so undignified?

Before the big country could do anything, the royal family of the Meng Kingdom rushed to send people and gifts. They were afraid that the big country would be dissatisfied and that they would not be able to flatter themselves?

Emperor Meng, who had resentment in his heart, had been able to disguise his true self very well at this time. He never showed any flaws before and after others, and created a "sincere and frank" image for himself.

Then, he gradually became a reliable prince in the eyes of his father. He began to stand out and stabilize his position with the help of the forces that he had finally won over.

Finally, under his careful design, his father was moved to make him the prince, but by chance, he saw his father's true face hidden behind others.

It was the night when his father sent away another princess to drink and have fun in the imperial garden. He pretended to care about his father and got close to his father, but he saw a hint of sadness hidden in his smiling face.

But he didn't care, thinking that his father was just putting on an act to make people look more comfortable. If he really happily sent away his beloved daughter, he would have lost his humanity.

Seeing that his father was drunk, he promptly offered to help him to dissipate the alcohol, and took him to Huxin Pavilion, hoping to take this opportunity to close the relationship between father and son.

Unexpectedly, his father actually cried. While crying silently, he resented the injustice of God and insisted on reincarnating himself into the country of Meng.

Emperor Meng opened his eyes wide and did not dare to make a sound. He just stared blankly at his father venting his emotions. It turned out that every time a princess or a prince was sent away, his father's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

As an emperor, he has to constantly introduce the best goods in the brothel to "distinguished guests" like a madam in a brothel. How can this not be a great shame for the father?

However, no matter how aggrieved, resentful, self-blame, and numb you are, in the end you can only hide it in your heart and cannot show it to others, so as not to make people watch another joke.

At some point, Emperor Meng and his father sat together. It was rare for the father and son to be so close, but the atmosphere was not the warmth and joy they imagined, but rather silent sadness.

Maybe he was drunk, maybe he had been suppressed for too long and it was rare to vent. His father actually held his hand solemnly and told him that he must be a good emperor.

No, you must be the strongest emperor in the world, no matter what price you have to pay, no matter how many lives you need to sacrifice!

Meng Guo has been wronged for such a long time, and it's time to turn over. He only hopes that with the country in his hands, he can get rid of the shadow of "flattery everywhere" and completely get rid of the shame of frequent "delivery" of the royal family.

Looking at the hand held tightly by his father and the unwillingness and desire in his eyes, Emperor Meng nodded heavily.

And his ambition was completely ignited at that moment, and he was determined to be a strong man who could shock the world and never let Meng country be threatened in the slightest.

However, the situation in the world after he ascended the throne gradually calmed down Emperor Meng's eager heart. The time was not yet ripe, so he had to be patient and continue to please Min and other big countries.

So, he, who had vowed never to let Meng Guo flatter other countries again, closed his eyes and sent out princesses one after another to stabilize the relationship between Meng Guo and other countries.

Only by personal experience can we truly understand how our father felt at that time. Only by sitting in that position can we understand how helpless it was to walk on thin ice.

Especially after seeing clearly the gap between big countries like Meng and Min, the Emperor of Meng understood that his ancestors were not timid and cowardly, but the situation was pressing and they had to compromise.

And his pursuit of power became crazy and seemed to have no end.

After the reform was successful, he saw the hope of Meng's prosperity, and Nan Yi came to him at the right time. He was extremely excited, thinking that this was God's will.

Destroying Yan Guo was not only a way of venting his anger, but also a test. Through this, the desire that had been suppressed for a long time finally broke out. Emperor Meng not only wanted to be the overlord who unified the world, but also wanted to be a rare emperor throughout the ages.

When he was in a low position, Emperor Meng wanted to work hard to climb up. After he was in a high position, he wanted to ensure that his power remained unchanged. On this basis, he kept moving upward and never looked back.

People's hearts are unpredictable, and when he is the one who is being sacrificed, he is extremely angry and unwilling to fall. When he becomes the one who is sacrificed by others, he forgets the struggle he once had and does not allow those who are regarded as pawns to resist in the slightest.

Just look at his attitude when answering Li Xiaoji's question. He regards the world as a chessboard that everyone can use as a stepping stone to his ascension to the throne.

As for the consequences of doing this, he doesn't want to care at all. Once he cares about it, it will waver his mind, hinder his steps, and return him to the saddest situation.

Therefore, after reviewing his experiences in the first half of his life in his dream, Emperor Meng strengthened his determination to dominate the world without any struggle.

The emotions in the dream were reflected in reality. The palace servant who was responsible for serving Emperor Meng saw his frown and thought he was feeling unwell, so he hurriedly called the imperial doctor.

"..." Li Xiaoji and the traitorous minister system couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this.

Li Xiaoji coughed unconsciously, raised his eyebrows, and clicked his tongue. Sure enough, with the change of stance, everyone seemed to behave more rationally.

The childhood pain of the Emperor of Meng, the hatred of losing his younger brother, the desire to make Meng the most powerful country in mind, and the oppression of reality.

All these things were added together to make him what he is today. No wonder after meeting Nan Yi, his whole body was like a sudden burst of rain after a long drought, with a wild nature all over his body.

The trapped beast in the cage has been trapped for a long time. Once it is released, it will only have the thought of devouring all living creatures.

Naturally, Li Xiaoji couldn't help but look at Emperor Meng with complicated eyes. Everyone in this world has their own sorrows. From this point of view, God seems to be fair.

The traitorous minister systematically blinked, looked at Emperor Meng, then at Li Xiaoji, and asked with a strange expression: "Do you sympathize with him?"

Li Xiaoji nodded, and without waiting for the traitor system to say anything, he added: "Sympathy is sympathy, but as a mission leader, I also have a position that I must adhere to."

"What's more, I am now carrying the identity of my original body. Anyone can understand Emperor Meng and even sympathize with him. Only I can't."
