Chapter 699: I Don’t Want to Be the Emperor (Please Subscribe)

There is a saying that has been circulating since ancient times: A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and a prince who does not want to be an emperor is not a good prince.

But when there are better choices, the wealth and power of the world do not seem to be very attractive.

For example, Chengxian asked.

See you forever!

Only immortality is the best.

Meng Xuanlang had wanted to retire from immortality since he was a child, and Jiang Chi's persuasion yesterday had strengthened his idea. Being a human emperor would only last a few decades.

In the end, it will turn into a pile of loess.

Time flies by very quickly, and so does the years. Every day passes by in such a hurry that it almost disappears in the blink of an eye.

It is really unbearable.

Therefore, Meng Xuanlang wanted to cultivate immortality and become a high-ranking immortal, but he did not want to turn into a handful of loess and go away a hundred years later.

It was obvious that Jiang Qian had listened to what he said yesterday.

He looked thoughtfully and said to Jiang Que who was meditating on the eaves: "Master, this disciple is about to enter the palace. I hope that Master will protect you."

"Go." Jiang Chi said two words casually.

Meng Xuanlang was left alone, messy in the wind, and walked slowly and bitterly towards the palace. This time, it was up to him whether he would live or die.

"What are the benefits of being an emperor?" Meng Xuanlang shook his head secretly, "It would be great to be as free and comfortable as Master. That is the life I want to live. I must not live in the way I hate the most."

Although there is that trend.

But he had to put an end to that trend.

Western Shu Imperial Palace.

The eldest prince was waiting in front of the old emperor early in the morning, with evil intentions. On the one hand, he ordered his people to do some tricks in the old emperor's soup, and on the other hand, he cooperated with Dongfang Yuqing to deal with those who did not submit to him in the court.

"Second brother, I hope you won't be as stupid as my father. If you just come back to see my father, that's fine. But if you want to compete with your brother for that position, no wonder you are ruthless." Meng Xuancong It's not a good thing either.

Entering the palace with several guards.

Meng Xuanlang felt deeply in his heart. He knew very well what his seriously ill father was thinking, and he also knew what his ambitious elder brother Meng Xuancong was thinking.

"This time, we will completely resolve these worries, and then follow Master to cultivate immortality." Meng Xuanlang secretly thought.

He has no ambition to become the leader of a country.

That's not the life he wants to live.

The world is huge and he wants to see it.

The top of the imperial city.

Several figures flickered.

Meng Xuancong sat in a large hall and asked, "Has the second prince come to the palace?"

"We have entered the palace gate." An inexplicable voice sounded, and then disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared before.

"First Prince, do you want to do it now..." A guard suddenly said, and he made a gesture of wiping his neck.

If we can take the opportunity to deal with the second prince, wouldn't the throne of the Xishu Dynasty belong to this eldest prince?

"Well, let's meet my second brother first and see what he has to say." Meng Xuancong said lightly.

He didn't want to kill him until the critical moment.

After all, they are connected by blood.

If the conflict was not caused by the dispute over imperial power, he would not want to offend anyone.

"But all this depends on the choice of my second brother." Meng Xuancong looked away with a deep look.

It was as if he could see Meng Xuanlang slowly entering the palace gate in the distance at a glance.

"Second Prince, the eldest prince is also in the palace. He would like to ask you to come over first." Suddenly, a chamberlain greeted him respectfully.

"Big brother?" Meng Xuanlang looked slightly startled, "Okay, let's lead the way. It doesn't hurt to go and see big brother first."

He wanted to see what the ambitious elder brother wanted to do.

He has no idea about the throne.

In a main hall of the royal palace.

Meng Xuancong had already asked his chamberlain to make tea and was waiting for his second brother Meng Xuanlang to arrive. He closed his eyes and pondered what was about to happen.

Do you want to ambush three hundred swordsmen?

Just in case the talks fall apart...

"Someone is coming..."

He thought it was best to be fully prepared, as it would be hard to predict if something went wrong.

Never leave the danger to others.

After a cup of tea.

Meng Xuanlang came to the main hall with his chamberlain, and looked at Meng Xuancong, who was wearing a python robe, in a daze, "Brother, are you here so early?"

He was surprised.

"Second brother, since you are back, our brothers haven't had a good get-together. It just so happens that we have this opportunity to communicate and drink tea." Meng Xuancong said with a smile.

He said and asked the waiter to pour the tea.

Meng Xuanlang didn't take it seriously and said, "Brother, you're welcome. We two brothers have never communicated like this over tea, so we feel a little uncomfortable."

Really uncomfortable.

Even Meng Xuancong felt uncomfortable.

He also didn't like dealing with Meng Xuanlang.

"Why did the second brother come back suddenly?" Meng Xuancong asked suddenly: "Aren't you a good cultivator of immortality?"

He didn't understand.

Wouldn't it be better to cultivate your immortality properly?

Must come back.

"I suddenly heard that my father was seriously ill, so I came back to see him." Meng Xuanlang said: "After seeing this, I will go back to Shushan to continue practicing with my master. As for the throne, I will leave it to my elder brother to take care of it.

Father, I also want to trouble my eldest brother to take good care of him.

I have no intention of doing this to my younger brother who is on the throne. You must also know that I am determined to become an immortal. I will try my best to make it clear to my father.

The throne enjoys wealth and honor in the world, but that is not the life I want to live. "

Meng Xuanlang took the opportunity to express his thoughts in one breath. He wanted to reassure his eldest brother Meng Xuancong, otherwise the brothers would turn against each other today.

"Second brother, do you really think so?" Meng Xuancong asked in a daze: "That's the throne. With how much my father likes you, he will definitely pass it on to you. Are you willing to give it up?"

Hearing Meng Xuancong's question, Meng Xuanlang laughed instead.

He said lightly: "Brother, how long can an emperor live? Life is only a few dozen or a hundred years long, and then it will end. At that time, it will turn into a pile of yellow earth, but cultivating immortals is different. I want to live forever and I want to be free and easy.

Being an emperor?

That's the life I hate the most.

Cultivating immortals freely and freely is the life I want to live, and that's what I want, so the wealth and honor of the world are nothing but passing clouds to me."

One is the immediate benefit, and the other is the long-term benefit.

When you can't see through it, you can still fool yourself, but after seeing through it, you will find that the so-called wealth and honor of the world are nothing but clouds covering it.

That's all.

"Can you handle the father?" Meng Xuancong continued: "You should know that the father likes you very much. He...he should not pass the throne to me."

He looked a little lonely.

Not liked by others.

He had no choice, and was helpless.

"But I am not interested in this. Father can't restrain me. I will try my best to persuade him, and I believe that you will be a good emperor, right?" Meng Xuanlang's eyes fell on his elder brother Meng Xuancong, making him feel a little uncomfortable.

He ambushed three hundred swordsmen and axemen around him.

If Meng Xuanlang knew that he was judging others by his own standards, it would be so embarrassing.

Ahem!

He hurriedly changed the subject and said, "In that case, then you, my second brother, should go with me to see Father. I hope he will listen to you."

After what Meng Xuanlang said just now, Meng Xuancong had already made up his mind.

Maybe he really thought too much.

If it can be resolved peacefully, it would be the best, and it would save him the energy of calculating.

At the same time, Meng Xuanlang was secretly relieved. He had been practicing with Jiang Xiao for a long time, so he naturally knew that Meng Xuancong had actually prepared swordsmen and axemen around the hall.

If he hadn't said it earlier, I'm afraid that the elder brother would have smashed the cup as a signal.

Then, the two brothers slowly walked towards the old emperor's bedroom...
