At this moment, Xiao Letian had understood all of Great Marshal Zeng's thoughts. This was a dying old man who knew that he didn't have much time, and was using his own method to ask Xiao Letian for help!

Yes, he was asking Xiao Letian for help. On the surface, he was asking for his descendants' evaluation and judgment in the history books, but there was only one meaning in his words, it was to beg Xiao Letian, who was still alive, to protect him.

Long Xing Tian naturally had his domineering temperament, but no matter how strong he was, he couldn't go against the laws of nature. Death would wipe out all of his authority!

No one dared to touch him while he was still alive. After dying for a period of time, due to the fact that he was still alive, there would be a lot of people restraining themselves. But what about the future?

When there was no one left to protect him, would there be anyone who would change the history books to discredit him, or even kill his children or grandchildren, or directly dig a grave?

These things couldn't be ignored. All of them were people who had read history books to gain wisdom. In these thousands of years of bloody history, there had been too many such things!

With the change in Dynasty, even the tomb of the Emperor had been hollowed out, let alone a mere official, half a dragon.

Xiao Letian looked at Great Marshal Zeng and knew that he would not be able to complete his daily official pleasantries. If he really wanted to let Old Marshal be at ease, he would have to speak the truth, and speak the truth from the bottom of his heart!

"Grand Marshal! Don't even mention worrying about it, isn't that what I think? Do you know why I won't take another step up? With my current power, becoming a Monarch is but a step away … … No no, half a step is enough! "

"But what's the good of it? Once I become the same level as the Qing Dynasty, then even if I completely cut off the fantasies of Zai Chun and the other reformist! "

"What does the appearance of two Emperor of China s in East Asia mean? In international law, this meant that these two Country were destined to be independent, and this was something that I avoided with all my effort! "

"Even though the Chinese has been recognized as an independent Country, according to the rules of the current international order, the Chinese is still the Subordinate States's system!"

"This is from Old Kingdom of Liuzhu, including Brunei, Japan, Luzon, Annan … A series of Subordinate States systems that once belonged to Chinese civilization combined to form a Country! "

"The highest honor of the Chinese is none other than the Prime Minister. Of course, I have a special title that belongs to the Tail Prime Minister, or Head of State for short!"

"And the highest class of Title is Duke Jue, King Shang Tai, King of Far East and so on. In the future, the Ruan Royal Family of Annan will also give him a King's Title!"

"I have already thought about the matters behind me. Prime Minister would retreat after a few years, and then, Parliament of the nobility would give me a rich nobility as well!"

"With this kind of political system, compared to the Qing Dynasty, there's definitely a difference of one level! Zai Chun is the Kaiser, and we are just King. This is different, the Europe also admitted to being a organization.

"Because I left such a backdoor, so that there is a place for me to sneak in! On one hand, I want to paralyze the Manchu, give them a hallucination, what kind of hallucination? "

"That is, to allow the Manchu to daydream about the future. If the Manchu continues to grow stronger, they will use all sorts of methods to bring the Chinese back into the Manchu's system!"

"Yes!" Zai Chun's dream was to integrate the Chinese into the Chinese Subordinate States system. It doesn't matter if you receive the tribute or not, since your reputation is so good! "

"This is the only foundation stone for me to cooperate with Manchu, and is not some personal friendship between me and Zai Chun. Master and disciple relationship is nonsense, what does it matter if I face the power of the Country as a master and disciple?"

"I will leave a backdoor at Manchu's side, and at the same time, I will leave a stepping stone at the Europe's side!"

"I didn't claim to be the emperor, I wasn't on equal footing as Zai Chun, I still keep a low profile, so … I left behind a future Chinese that will reside in the central origin and swallow all of the legal principles of the Manchu! "

"Yes!" This world respected the strong! Even if the Chinese can defeat the Manchu, he will still not be able to defeat the whole world! "

"It's impossible to completely rely on military annexation, I need to have a foundation of law to block Western Powers's mouth! This is what it means to be righteous! "

"Since Manchu is unwilling to let go of my Chinese's position, then let him continue dreaming! Manchu can swallow Subordinate States, but can't Subordinate States swallow Manchu in the future? "

"Once that day comes, I will make a public announcement to the entire world. All the military actions taken by the Chinese against the Manchu are an internal matter of my China, and outsiders have no right to interfere!"

"Look, after you type out the slogan, there will be room for manoeuvre in the future!"

Ceng Guofan thoughtfully nodded his head: "So you're saying, that there's such a subtext in the proposal Your Majesty gave you a few days ago?"

"So it turns out that Zai Chun and you both have your own little plans! One is to use the dignity of the Empire to annex the Chinese, and the other is to use the orthodoxy of the Subordinate States bloodline to put out the banner of a civil war that cannot be interfered with! "

"If you want to eat him, he wants to eat you as well … And then you both had to put on a protective shell of jurisprudence, trying to avoid interference from the West? "

"How brilliant! I have to admit I'm old! Old … In the face of the problem of how to deal with Western Powers, I am already far inferior to you! "

Xiao Letian patiently said, "Ah, Grand Marshal! I've already told you my trump card. What else do you have to worry about? With my arrangements, who would dare to touch you? "

"Your descendants, your ancestral shrine and tomb, naturally have me to protect you … Even if the situation changed, there was no need to be afraid! I have specially opened an area called the Friend's Shrine at the back of the Warlord's palace! "

This is for those who have a good relationship with the Chinese, and are willing to be buried in their mausoleum garden in the future. The scenery is beautiful, and the building specifications are also high, I invite you to rest there, and in the end, I will also bury you together.

"Hahaha... Not, not yet! As long as there's a glimmer of hope, I still hope to be buried together with the ancestor! This is home! But I really accept your kind intentions! "I also believe that you can do it..." The Grand Marshal patted Xiao Letian's hands with an extremely relaxed expression.

"Since you have such a plan, it looks like Chinese won't suffer any losses in the future! This Fortress Plan is the chains that you placed on the China.

"We will first control the area economically and militarily, and then slowly infiltrate it into our culture … As long as you believe in time, the people of this country will all be yours sooner or later! "

"Brilliant! This was the right path! This was the only way to change the course of events! long hair and the rest are not doing well! "I really can't do it..."

"Cough, cough, cough..." Ceng Guofan coughed for a while, then drank two mouthfuls of ginseng soup s. With your Chen Nuo, I am relieved, at least I will not be afraid of being dug up after death!

"But... I still have some worries! "Reputation in the future..."
